Other notable events last month: Casino Night entertained over 30  members and guests.  Hats off to Rick, Ken and Doc who dealt most of the evenings games and to my good friends from Meeker OK who made the nights activities a success! Thanks to David for playing music for the Mardi Gras Dance! Recently, some of our  "OLT" family have endured tragic events within their families.   Here at Oaklake we want them to know that we stand with them and offer our support and we are keeping them in our "prayers".

What would a club do with this extra money?  A wise club would use the money for its members with better facilities, an AANR event of some kind with food and music, or something else that might appeal to that club. When you receive your ballot, please follow the instructions on voting. You may also email me at brendaolt@yahoo.com or private message me on facebook. Embedded in most reports was how AANR advocates for you the member.  Advocacy comes in many forms, from having a local sheriff present at the AANR office for its official "ribbon cutting" for the new office to the AANR booth at National Council of State Legislatures which meets each August in a different city.  If it were not for AANR, if would be difficult for any club to plead a legitimate case for its existence in the community. Oaklake Trails is hosting this year's AANR convention.  If you are an OLT member who wishes to attend during the week of August 7-14, you will need to register for the convention.  Come meet AANR officials, trustees, office staff, and your fellow AANR members.  Show how OLT rocks.  We'll have daily themes that we will announce so you can be looking for costumes or adornments for your golf carts. Come join in the fun.  Experience the Freedom at OLT this August. Submitted by Brenda Spangler, AANR Convention Chair Since June of last year we have been developing new ways of communication for our members and to attract new members and guests. Our goal is to effectively communicate events and member benefits by using different forms of social media, emails, website calendars and radio. Currently we use 3 main mediums to communicate: Website Newsletter (monthly) Events Email  (weekly Updates) The weekly Events Email provides our most current information. Subscribe to the weekly email to stay up to date.  SUBSCRIBE   Update Our OLT Construction Team has been working tirelessly to complete this project and their progress is impressive! Next comes the shingles and then the siding. PRINT CALENDAR SUBMIT YOUR ADD (click here) 2017 Oaklake Trails Naturist Park, Inc., All rights reserved.
