Pool Closing
Help Needed
Pool season is in full swing and we need to work together to keep the pool area clean and orderly. Please sign up for a turn at closing down the pool nightly at 10:00pm. This will involve being sure the umbrellas are down, pool area is orderly, trash is in containers, restrooms are in working order, all lights are turned off, and the gate is locked. WWHOA asks that each family sign up for one week of the summer. The sign-up sheet is located on the bulletin board at the pool. For all pool concerns please contact Tommy Culberson at pool@wellingtonwalkhoa.com.
Pool Etiquette
Please be respectful of your neighbors by observing the following guidelines when using the pool. If you have young adults in your family that go to pool by themselves, be sure to go over these guidelines with them as well.
- No Smoking
- No profanity
- Clean Up After Yourself: Dispose of all trash in waste cans, when leaving; straighten furniture & check to make sure you aren’t leaving personal items behind.
- Children Must Have Adult Supervision at All Times.
- Turn off Restroom Lights When Done.
- Do Not Prop the Gates Open: We are required BY LAW to have the gate to our pool area locked at ALL TIMES.
- Do Not Open Gates For Others: Everyone entitled to access to our pool should have their own key fob.
Congratulations to the Wellington Walk Class of 2013!

Covenant Violations
Pam McCullough is the head of our Architectural Committee and handles all covenant violations. She has one of the hardest and most important jobs on our HOA board. Her efforts are helping keep our neighborhood looking great! There have been a large number of easily avoidable violations lately. Please be diligent in avoiding these most common covenant violations:
1. Do not park in the street.
2. Keep weeds out of lawns & planting beds.
3. Reattach loose & missing shutters.
4. Do not store garbage & recycling bins in driveways.
5. Trailers/boats should not be stored in public view.
Tennis Teams…
Tennis teams that plan to play out of the neighborhood this summer need to look over the tennis information on our website and get the required information to Sue Winter before the season begins. She will then block-off scheduled team practices and matches. Remember, the team captain or co-captain must be from the neighborhood, submit team rosters, and guest fees. Thanks! Please forward all tennis related questions to Sue Winter at tennis@wellingtonwalkhoa.com.
Lake Overflow Structure Repairs
Engineered Restorations, Inc. has finished all repairs to the lake overflow structures. Both the upper and lower lake structures had developed leaks that were causing lake levels to be lower than they should have been. Both lakes have now returned to full pool. The engineers feel the leaks are likely 100% stopped; and they will inspect the work once-a-year at no charge to the HOA.
Of note is that sometime in the future...who knows when...one year...five years...ten years, the large pipe under the dam will likely need to be repaired. This will result in a drop of the lake level to approximately what it was at its worst level during the recent leak, but should NOT result in having to drain the lake to effect repairs. This fix will be costly.... estimated ~ $25,000-$30,000. Hopefully, we can defer this for some years, but need to be cognizant of keeping our 'contingency funds' beefed up.
Lake Trail Vandalism
Unfortunately our neighborhood has been the victim of some vandalism. Someone kicked all the pickets off the sides of our lake trail bridge…for the second time! The bridge has been repaired with screws instead of nails this time. If you witness any illegal activity in the future, please call the police!
Motorized Vehicles
Please remember that it is against Gwinnett County ordinances to drive unlicensed motorized vehicles on public streets. For safety reasons unlicensed scooters, golf carts, go carts, ATVs, etc. should not be driven in our neighborhood.
We Welcome Our Newest Neighbors !
We would like to extend a warm welcome to our new neighbors ! We hope you enjoy our neighborhood. Be sure the HOA Board has your current contact information on file so that you do not miss out on important neighborhood communications. If you are a new neighbor and haven’t received a welcome packet, please contact Susan Raines at welcome@wellingtonwalkhoa.com.
