Cinosam Club

Cinosam residents who live on unpaved roads have a limited-time opportunity to have your road resurfaced. To do so, you must complete a Petition for Maintenance Service, have it signed by 75% of the homeowners on the street, and turn it into Maria Vescio by the end of the week (July 8^th). You can obtain the blank forms from Maria.

Thank you to Maria for getting the signatures and coordinating the work to resurface Paine Avenue and surrounding roads. Drive down and see what an improvement it has made.

Join us for the Cinosam 4th of July celebration.

The parade participants can line up on Cinosam Road beginning at 11:00AM as the viewing crowd lines up their chairs on the avenue to cheer them on.

After the parade, there will be a patriotic program followed by a great picnic lunch and time to visit with our Cinosam neighbors.

If you are able to bring a dessert, it would be appreciated.  We hope to see you there!!!

The July Board Meeting will be held Saturday July 1st at 9AM in the park.  In case of rain, we will move across the street to Julie’s house.

The Cinosam Gull Lake beach was the location of a fire on April 29th destroying a large stack of dock sections stored for the winter. Thanks to the quick arrival of the Brainerd Fire Department they were able to save the two remaining stacks and surrounding area. Arson is suspected and the Crow Wing County Sherriff’s department investigation is in progress.

The aftermath brought together several Cinosam volunteers who hauled the burned sections up the hill, pulled off the hardware and loaded them up to be taken away and destroyed. Thank you to everyone that helped with the clean-up effort and thanks to Tom Whitehead for the pictures.

A controlled burn (the good kind) took place at Round Lake Park last weekend.  With the help of a few volunteers the lot was burned, raked, cleaned and made ready for the new season.  Thank you to the volunteers who joined Boots to get the job done: Mark McDonald, Larry Mudget and John Klauck.

The first Cinosam Club Board Meeting of 2017 will be held on Saturday, May 6th at 9:00AM in the park.  In Mark McDonald’s absence, Tim Vescio will be chairing the meeting.  The agenda is as follows:
