What's Up in Bear Valley Springs?

The entire community is feeling the strain of the social distancing and quarantine. The BVSA requests that members inviting non-members to use our few open facilities, please cease and desist, because we need to keep our areas in good shape for our members.

The Country Club still has the curbside service. Free birthday dinners are not available during this time, but any outstanding ones will be honored once the Club reopens.

Just a reminder that the Association will be holding its 49th annual general meeting and election of new officers on July 18. The polls are open from 9 to 11 a.m. for in-person voting. At 2 p.m. the meeting will reconvene for election results.

The entire community is enjoying the wonderful bloom of California Poppies on our hill-sides. It seems the conditions were opportune for a big bloom. Meanwhile, many gardens have been sporting our usual bloom of daffodils. The brilliant yellow flowers are what we need these days to brighten our mood.

The transfer station has new hours. It currently is open five days a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., but is closed on Mondays and Thursdays. You can visit the CSD Facebook page to get a list of unpermitted items, but an example is anything toxic, or large items. The Tehachapi waste station takes the larger items and has collection days for toxic items a couple times a year.

Megan Clark, our communications specialist is doing a great job on Nextdoor to keeping the communication lines open. The newsletter, Bear Necessities, also is working to keep the community informed.

Stay home and stay well!
