Welcome to The TIMBERLAKE Neighborhood Volunteers Page! So who are we you ask? We are a lively group of active Women making community happen at Timberlake. Come Join Us!
(Posted 7-15-09)Timberlake Neighborhood Volunteers treated the community to an Ice Cream Social on July 12th at the Timberlake Community Center. Hostesses Barb Duncan, Harriet Lawrence, Claire Knowles, Kathy Boller, and Eileen Domer presented a table that would make Dairy Queen envious. Over 70 enthusiasts took advantage of the various ice cream choices and toppings. Many browsed through the wide selection of books in the library while enjoying their sundaes, or sat at the picnic tables under the trees, meeting new friends and chatting with old."
The Ice Cream Social that was held on Sunday, August 3rd, was a gratifying success! TNV hosted its second "Ice Cream Social" in the Book Room at the Ranch House. Despite the earlier rain showers and overcast skies, lots of folks turned out to enjoy the delicious ice cream sundaes, a real do-it-yourself creativity! They also had time to admire the new bookshelves, the sofa, and checked out the books, DVD's, videos, and puzzles. A guesstimated sixty-five folks came by car, truck, horse, and ATV's to eat ice cream sundaes with neighbors known and new. A word of thanks to all who volunteed labor, supplies, time, and contributed books, etc. Special thanks to TNV's Harriet, Barbara and Pat for a great job of serving and hosting this event.
![]() TRLA BATHHOUSE GETS FACELIFT (Posted 9-17-08) On August 26th the bathhouse at the Timberlake Community Center Ranch House received a long overdue exterior refinishing. Landowner and retired commercial painter Herb Gray volunteered his time, materials and expertise to completely scrape, power wash and recaulk the building before the actual painting of the walls and trim. Thank you, Herb the bathhouse now has a superb professional appearance.
(Posted 9-17-08)Tom Merritt, Dan St. Charles, Danny Montoya, and Bill Wolford set in place the new Timberlake community bulletin board next to the Volunteer Fire Department and mailboxes. Funds were donated by the Timberlake Neighborhood Volunteers with design and construction by Dan St. Charles. There is now enough space for Community Events, Classifieds, Neighborhood Watch, and Rosie Alert/Lost & Found. The old bulletin board will be removed, renovated and placed in the Cloh Chin Toh subdivision.

The adopted Standing Rules were read and discussed. The group views these guidelines as an evolving document designed to keep the group focused on building community in Timberlake. Discussion was held on how effective we have been advertising the events we hold for the community. We will attempt to place signs near the roadways announcing time and events to be held. The signs will be reusable and we also could attach balloons for attraction. Look for them for the next event. The Spaghetti Dinner, Sept.14th. Along this line, Linda Pedersen, is coordinating a new bulletin board for the area near the mailbox station by the firehouse. We will keep you posted on this project when completed. Karin Brunner will refurbish the old bulletin board for a location near the entrance to Timberlake, in the Cloh Chin Toh area. Saturday, August 16th, TNV Movie Night under the Stars, err ceiling of
the Rock House
One of Timberlake Neighborhood Volunteers goals is to work to foster a sense of community. I believe that the movie night helped promote that goal. It was a great evening, eating and watching a movie with 20 of your friends. I want to thank everyone who came out and participated. A special thank
you goes out to Linda Pedersen for mowing, cooking and a list of other
things. Eileen Domer for assistant to the chef and helping to set up the
equipment. Ted Rodda, Dick Knowles, and Karin Brunner for their muscling
of the equipment and many others who helped do, undo, redo, load, unload,
and reload. I thank you all. Kudoo's to our Movie Director, Alice Bybee for making the arrangements to show the movie, The Bucket List, starring Morgan Freeman and Jack Nickleson. A bittersweet and very funny movie.
