Property Owners' Association - Lake Hayward

Welcome to Lake Hayward

2013 Season

President's message

Pavilion update - Construction has begun on the pavilion (see Pavilion page for photos) creating two dangerous areas. These are protected with orange fencing. For your safety, please do not enter the south end of first beach or the parking area adjacent to the tennis courts, both of which are posted "Danger Keep Out".

The north half of first beach is available to association members through the north entrance. Please park head in where indicated in front of the metal fence across first beach parking and enter the beach from the north entrance. Please do not park where posted "No Parking" in the center of the fence - this is the gate to the construction area. Vehicles blocking the gate or impeding construction will be towed.

At times, the road directly in front of the beach will be closed due to crane activity. When the road is closed, the parking spaces will also be closed. This is for your safety. Please respect the detour and refrain from entering the area during these short periods of time.

We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your cooperation.

We also need your help. Remain vigilant at first beach and call the East Haddam Police at 860-873-5103 if you observe any suspicious activity.

Regards,
Gail
