From lively conversations at our January General Membership Meeting to the informative and engaging presentation on the Crooked River Lighthouse, the special APSTA Spotlight Award presented to Robin Arnett, and the APSTA Brunch and Community Meet-Up, the year has kicked off with the spirit, connection, and pride that make our neighborhood such a special place. If you’re not yet a member, we’d love for you to join us and be part of these events and the sense of community that makes them so special. |
Upcoming events

APSTA's beautification committee's Phase 1 project to install three benches along the multi-use path from the Welcome Garden to the new section of road on Alligator Drive is complete. Thank you to the committee and the AP water department -Robin and Carlos! John Kelley and Teresa Jacobs from APSTA helped facilitate the installation. | Donate to the AP NEW LITTLE LENDING LIBRARY
Please donate books that are in good condition. Once the Little Lending Library is full, the lending process will begin. If you take a book, please leave one. It is located at the corner of Alligator Drive and Harbor Circle, in front of the small blue building at the water department. The library will be painted and pavers installed at a later date. |

Dear Members,
December was an exciting month on The Point! Our Annual Golf Cart Parade was a huge success—even with the sprinkling rain. We had a record number of vendors providing prizes, and it was wonderful to have both our Sheriff and County Commissioner riding in the parade. The creativity on display with the decorations was truly amazing!
We sincerely appreciate each and every one of you who participated, volunteered, judged, and donated. A special thank-you, as always, to the APSTVFD for bringing out the fire truck. And I have it on good authority that Santa himself will be joining the parade next year! Congratulations to everyone who helped make this event such a success.
As we begin the new year, January brings many exciting things ahead. Our next general meeting will feature a presentation from the Crooked River Lighthouse. In addition, on January 11th, we will gather for a brunch at Angelo’s at 12:30 PM. Everyone is invited—Dutch treat. Come meet your neighbors, connect with fellow members, and enjoy Angelo’s great food. Feel free to bring a neighbor along!
I look forward to seeing everyone at these wonderful events.
Teresa
