Indian Hills

"Floating Flicks"

Aug 13, 2004

FRIDAY
FLOATING
FLICKS
FUN FOR
FAMILIES

Besides allowing alliteration to a writer, the
FLOATING FLICKS at the Indian Hills pool is the most economical, neighborly, grilling-out, family oriented event available ANYWHERE. Come down and enjoy a burger or dog cooked by Chef Nick. The movies are second-run, but first rate. The sound system for the movies will make you think you are in a theatre. The stars shine over your head and on the huge screen. If you see Sandee Ferguson, thank her management for a special IH activity.

Please check with the pool for times and features. 846-0452





ENTRANCE COMMITTEE AT WORK FOR US AGAIN

New lights were installed at the northern Sedgwick wall the last week of June. The previously installed lights were the subject
of vandalism and hard wear. Entrance Chairperson Betsy Smalldon characterizes
the new lights as ?“A little brighter than what we have now,but not too bright and I like how they focus on the lettering.?”

?“INDIAN HILLS HOME FOR LOTS OF CHIEFS?”

The headline above graced a 7/7/1982 Columbus Dispatch article that Mary Jaquay brought to the last IH board meeting.
Richard Bloom opines, ?“ If you?’re looking for someone?’s ear to bend about your frustration with the city, the school board and the federal government, you don?’t have to bounce between City Hall, the Columbus Board of Education and Washington.
Just buy a house in Indian Hills. At least then you?’ll have Mayor Tom Moody, board President Carole Williams and U.S. Rep. Chalmers Wylie, R-Columbus, all in the same neighborhood.
At a time when many neighborhoods have given in to age and apathy, an active residents?’ association has worked to keep the neighborhood viable. And if a wild boar party or Fourth of July parade don?’t do the t

trick, the community pool and tennis courts may.
And to David and Paula Koons, Tom O?’Malley and Brad Mitchell, Planned Communities Inc. couldn?’t have selected a better spot to develop the neighborhood.
?“ I really think we?’re far enough away that we can feel secluded?”, Mrs. Koons said, ?“but at the same time, we?’re close enough to everything.?”
Over the past 20 years, though, the original buy-in price of as little as $38,900 has escalated to between $6500 and $135,000. ?“But the average tends to be about $90,000?”, Mitchell said.
The homes, the variety of neighborhood amenities and the energy behind the civic association all add up to what the four like to think is the ?“ideal neighborhood?” And, as Mahoney explained, it is a neighborhood with imagination.?”
The back of the article noted fixed rate mortgages for 14.5%, and graduated for 12.5%.






CURB NUMBERS

The curb number project has been completed. Thank you to those who have turned in election forms. The uniform appearance is appealing. The board will monitor wear and tear.
