Potential Policy Adjustments

It has come to my attention that we may need to revise the Reservation policy. Here are the issues on the table:

1. There may not be enough weekends available during the Spring/Summer/Fall months. So we may need to adjust the number of "family only" weekends.

2. We may need to require that at least one member per shareholder unit participate in the pines workdays and clean-up days and if at least one member does not participate a fee may be incurred.

3. We may need to institute a different way of dividing weekends that is based on sweat equity and allows shareholder to pick their preferred weekends.

4. We also may need to require that if you are unable to use your designated weekend and are unable to find someone to trade with, you have to do so with enough notice for the cabin to be occupied by another family unit.

Please read the reservation policy and add your thoughts so that we can air all concerns and ideas before we have a family meeting to make decisions.

  1. I think that some version of all of these ideas have potential to improve how the cabin functions. I'm looking forward to the chance to discuss them as a group.
    Regarding #3...I'd suggest that we get together for a "draft party" where each family unit gets to select (draft) one summer season (May through October) week at a time, with your selection order determined by how much sweat equity time they put in during the previous year, until all of the available, non-family weeks have been chosen.
    We would still have the opportunity to work out trades, but there would be less likelihood of wanting to trade, if we have chosen our weeks, and clearly know when they are in advance of the summer.
