Member Social Event Invitations
It is our goal to help bring our community together and with that purpose, we plan on scheduling social activities for our members. These social activities may be movie nights, card days/nights, bowling parties, progressive dinners, etc. Or it may be Sports watching parties or wine tastings. Or it may be "hey all, come on over at xx time to play shuffleboard or sing karaoke. Or meet at this restaurant or bar for some food and drink.
Many venues may have limited seating, so we will invite members first and if there are seats left over, may invite other interested parties.
You are helping our community
By becoming a member, you are investing in our community and helping us improve our neighborhood. We firmly believe that community starts with neighbor knowing neighbor and neighbor helping neighbor. Dues are very reasonable and we will use those dues to help make Preston Shores a better place. We want everyone to have "Preston Shores Pride" and make our neighborhood the best that it can be.
Community Buying with the goal of obtaining better pricing
It is our hope to help negotiate bulk pricing with needed vendors. For example, being an organized group of Preston Shores members, if we can reach out to landscape companies with a larger number of potential clients, we may be able to negotiate better pricing as a group. We will do our best to vet any partner, but we are a group cannot be held responsible for their work. Hiring any third party person or company would be up to the member to decide. If their work is not up to par though, we would like to hear about it so we can reach out to other interested parties if necessary.
Improved Neighbor Communication Capability
Part of our charter is to help bring community together. Part of that effort is enhanced communications. Being signed up with your current contact information will allow for a methodology to share important information whenever needed. Becoming a dues paying member will provide enhanced communications such as member only events and promotions. It is our goal to have advertisers offer additional benefits to dues paying members.
Helping residents in need - As we can
Part of our mission is neighbors helping neighbors and we will put aside funds as available to help our neighbors in need. This may be to help pay for gas or food or organizing a cleanup. Or it may be to organize a food drive or transportation to a doctor or hospital. We want to have a charitable aspect of our Organization and hopefully you see that as a benefit. At the very least, hopefully you feel good that part of what your dues will go to helping others in times of need. The goal is to have as many dues paying members as possible so we can have the funding to support this.
Preston Shores Cares!!!
