The Peddler’s Faire will operate from 9am to 4pm daily over the Memorial Day Weekend.
Volunteer Day Reminder
We still need volunteers to help with the clean up of the Lilac Park Pool Area.
This all-volunteer day is a great way to meet your neighbors and saves the Association over $1,000 in clean up and maintenance costs.
Saturday, May 14, 2011 – 9:00 – 2:00
Come by and lend a hand! Details here.

Lilac Park Volunteer Day!
Saturday, May 14, 2011 – 9:00 – 2:00
Join us Saturday, May 14, to prepare the pool and common area for summer action and fun! Why volunteer?
This annual event helps to keep our annual dues low because it saves our association approximately $1,000 that we would have to spend otherwise. Plus, it’s a great way to get to know others in Lilac Park!
This year instead of giving volunteers a $10.00 credit, a free LUNCH will be served to all who come and help!
Here’s a list of things we need to do:
- Rake the front of the pool yard
- Rake the back lot
- Trim trees, bushes, shrubs
- Haul pine needles and tree debris to the front yard for burning
- Oversee the burning process
- Help create steps in the back lot
- Sweep the pool area
- Clean bathrooms
- Clean the kitchen
- Fix, paint “Lilac Park Subdivision” sign
- Basically anything else that needs doing!
Bring rakes, trimmers, loppers, wheelbarrows, pick-up trucks and trailers (if you have them) to haul debris from the back lot to the front for burning. The weather should be settled by then, but you never know so be sure to dress in layers and wear some sturdy clothing for protection.
We need your help. Please use the Contact Us page or send us an email to let us know that you’re coming, and what you can help with. Let us know as early as possible so we get an accurate head count for lunch.
We hope to see you there!

A few reasons why we love Lilac Park.
Email From Merita Callaway, Calaveras County Supervisor:
March 28 – roads were clear and snow was piled high – One of your residents needed help getting into her home. The call went out, and Lilac Park responded. You truly reflect what being a neighbor is all about. Thank you Lilac Park. Thank you.
Posted on the Bulletin Board by ALPHA’s Secretary / Treasurer:
A hardy thank you to GE for coming to the rescue on Sunday, March 27, with his 13 horsepower snow blower to create a path thru the 5 ft berm for a Lilac Park resident. G, in 30 minutes you did what would have taken 7 of us 3 hours. Thank you. …
Lilac Park isn’t the biggest community in Arnold, but we think it’s the best.
Weather Update
Good news! It looks like the snow has stopped. It’s still gray and overcast, but the snow has started to melt. The forecast is looking brighter….
Conditions Update: Friday, 3/25/11
Power Status – 3:30pm
Power remains on in Lilac Park. Grace Neurath, ALPHA’s Secretary/Treasurer, and her husband Rene, walked Lilac Park this morning and found several trees down. There was one house with a tree on it’s roof and a deck that came down under the snow load. Both owners already know about it. If we find any other properties with any visible damage from the storm, we will be sure to let you know.
Power Status – 1:15pm
The power is back on in Lilac Park. Received word that a PG & E truck was headed to the top of the hill and an hour later the power was restored. Let’s hope it stays that way.
Conditions
Snow conditions are such that if you’re planning to head up to Lilac Park today, be prepared to dig out / blow off your driveway. Average snow depths are being reported at three to four feet with a berm that’s much deeper depending on where you are.
