| Security Added to Website |
|
June 20, 2008:
To make the PHOA website more secure and keep spammers from harvesting our email address we have moved
all of the pages containing contact information (email, address and phone numbers) to a section of the
website where email address harvesting programs won't know to go. This makes it slightly more difficult to get
to these directories, but hopefully the added security will be worth it.
To access these pages, click the Contact List link on the left of this web page and you
will now be redirected to a "Login Page". This page will ask you for your User Name and Password. To
make things simple, we have picked your last hame (upper or lower case) and street address (4 digit numbers only).
It should work for everyone with information in the current contact directory, but if you have problems,
please contact me (John Stockton) and I'll help resolve them.

| PHOA Annual Meeting |
|
January 19, 2008:
The Preserve Home Owners Association Annual General Meeting was
held Saturday, January 19th at 2:00 at the home
of Joe and Laura Dalton. The results were a new slate of officers including Moris Simson
as President, Harvey Tack as VP, Al Bialkowski as Treasurer, Tina Stockton as Secretary,
Lauren Mezaraups as ACC Chair and John Stockton as Webmaster. The HOA budget and dues were reviewed
and set to be $500 for 2008. Look for a bill sometime in February. The HOA dues should be paid
before March 1, 2008.
The minutes from this meeting can be found

| Photos now in directory |
|
As an experiment we are trying something new with the online directory which is to
add a family photo on the detailed information page for each family.
Currently the Stockton's and the Simson's pages are the only one to have this, but
if you would like to have yours added - simply email a small picture
(jpg format) to John Stockton and we will
put it into the directory. Also, if you think it is a dumb idea
- please let us know that too. Click
here to see an example.

December, 2007:
The Bulletin Board now gets its distribution list directly from
the PHOA on-line directory. The good news is that email address errors will
be minimized, so using the BBS should be more reliable. The bad news is that
if your email address is in error, it causes error messages that make it look
like the BBS isn't working properly. Please let us know what your current email
address is so we can keep this tool up to date. The upcoming PHOA Annual Meeting
is an ideal time to request any changes to your directory information.
November, 2007:
The address list has some cosmetic improvements with
the addition of mail and vCard icons - but more important - what
are they good for? When you are on the main directory listing,
look for and click on one the following icons:
- Which should automatically open a pre-addressed email window
on your desktop (tested with Windows and Internet Explorer).
If there is not one of these letter icons next to your name, it means that there
isn't an email address on-file for your name. If you want to be added, please
send the appropriate email address to John Stockton.
- Which should add the contact information directly to your information
manager (in my case, Outlook). When you click on it, a window
will ask you to "Open, Save or Cancel". Select "Open"
and it will show the contents of the virtual card. Click "Save
and Close" on that form and it will now be part of your contact
directory.
