   WELCOME TO OUR COMMUNITY


    The Mountain Lodge Park & Glenwood Hills Residents Association, Inc. is going into it's 5th year. Although we have not accomplished all the things we wanted to do, we all realize that the wheels of progress grind slowly and looking back over the past four years, we have made more progress than we realized.

    To date, we have:

 1) Officially registered as a New York State, Tax Exempt, Not-for-Profit organization.

2) Secured an I.R.S. 501(c)(3) for Tax Exempt and Grant Application Status.

 3) Secured a Non-Profit Bulk Mailing Permit with the U.S.P.S. to reduce mailing costs.

4) Established a community based Youth Group to afford our youngsters a guided recreation program.

5) Sponsored and ran three successful community Clean-Ups which removed tons of hazardous and unsightly trash from our comunity.

6) Sponsored and ran three successful "Meet the Candidates Night" to better inform our residents of their political choices.

7) Established a "Neighborhood Watch Program" to ensure a safer community and to established a liaison with the Blooming Grove Police. 

8) Continuously work with the Building Inspectors office to have abandoned buildings repaired or removed.

9) Had 30 MPH Speed Limit Signs put up on Mt. Lodge & Glenwood Roads for the safety of all residents.

10) Had the Highway Department paint the double yellow lines on Mt. Lodge and Glenwood Road at the request of the residents.

11) Worked with the Town to have the abandoned P.O.A. property recalimed by the Town, had the old pool area filled in and had the entire area leveled and seeded for future development as a Town Park.

12) Pressured the Highway Department to repair ditches and culverts along Mt. Lodge and Glenwood Road and to widen road areas where erosion collapsed the road surface.

13) Fought to have Mt. Lodge & Glenwood Roads resurfaced in 2007.

14) Petitioned and gained the installation of security lighting for the mailbox area at Glenwood & Mt. Lodge Road.

15) Erected a new "Welcome to Glenwood Hills" sign at the bottom of Glenwood Road.

16) Set up and maintain an award winning web site for the MLPGHRA.org to keep residents informed and to provide helpful & necessary information about the community.

17) Laid the groundwork for the future installation of the Mt. Lodge & Glenwood Hills Lighting District, which will put street lights at all trail & road intersections.

18) Established a Park Committee to determine the needs for the new Town/Community Park and to actively engage in the planning and fund raising for this project.

19) Established the Road Committee to seek the ways & means of upgrading the road infrastructure for all trails and roads in Mt. Lodge & Glenwood Hills with the eventual goal of having all trails widened and surfaced.

20) Actively working with the Town, Board of Health, State & Federal Officials to have a community wide "Waste Water Treatment" system for our community.  The project is already under way and is expected to be completed within the next five years or less.

21) Spearheaded the "Yager Family Fund" to help one of our neighbors who lost their home and possessions in a near fatal fire in December. This effort proved that the community can come together as one for a common cause.

    In 2008, we intend to pursue the projects and plans we have already initiated, concentrating on the Roads, Lighting, Park Development and Sewer System. We hope all residents join the Association to show their support and have a say in your community development.
