Special News

PCA Adds Wood Chips to the Playground

On June 11, 2021 the PCA added wood chips to the playground in Club View Park. We do this about once every three years. We use a product called "engineered wood fiber", which provides a safer surface than regular wood mulch.

PCA Board Meetings

Monthly Board Meetings: Until further notice Board meetings will be held as telemeetings, using the Zoom platform. As of June 2021 the County is starting to begin renting meeting space in the Damascus Community Center, but not school classrooms or library meeting rooms. The July meeting may be in one of these locations.

Please register your e-mail address with the PCA to receive meeting invitations.

PCA Annual Meeting

The PCA Board of Directors has decided to postpone our annual meeting and election until we can hold an in-person meeting. It is difficult to conduct an election using a virtual meeting and also use a secret ballot, and allow nominations from the floor of the meeting. We will hold an in-person meeting when Montgomery County again allows meeting room rentals in its schools or libraries.

Lawn Treatments Restricted by County

Please note that Montgomery County now restricts the herbicides that can be used on residential lawns. Most of the common weed killers are no longer allowed, for reasons of human and environmental safety. Most products listing an EPA Registration Number on the label are prohibited. See this website for more information:

https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/lawns/law/

Note that the PCA's common area lawns are being treated in compliance with this law.

On 06-Apr-2021 a corn gluten product was applied to serve as a fertilizer and for pre-emergent weed prevention.
On 18-May-2021 an Iron HEDTA product was applied to provide broadleaf control.

Second Ravine Clean-Up Held on April 24

On Saturday 24-Apr the PCA held its second clean-up effort in the wooded ravine that runs between Sugar Cane Lane and Club View Drive. We thank the twelve residents and Board members who participated.

The first clean-up was done by a hired contractor, and focused on the dozens of tires and larger metal objects that were dumped there.

It is thought that this dump site is from an old farm, and that the dump pre-dates our community.

It is likely that another community event will be held to complete the clean-up.

PCA Replaces Basketball Goals

In October 2020 the PCA replaced the basketball goals in Club View Park. Follow this link to the News & Events Page to see more.
