Happy Spring!
As we embark on another year, there are great things in the future for the Cove Community Association. The CCA is here to serve anyone who lives, works, or owns property in the Cove School District. I’m happy to be able to act as president this year, along with some great folks who are stepping up to keep the CCA active. I want to give an enormous thanks to Cindy Edwards and all the people who have ensured the organization, and most especially the Cherry Fair, remains a vibrant part of our community. As we all know, this is a wonderful place to make a life and each one of us is a fiber in the fabric of this community. I am grateful for the beautiful tapestry of people that is Cove.
Sincerely,
Heidi Van Schoonhoven, new CCA president
