COVID-19 has created a new normal as it relates to events and in-person gatherings. But if we’ve learned anything, we now know that adapting doesn’t have to mean canceling. With that thought in mind, The Landings Association held its first-ever Virtual Annual Meeting on Tuesday, March 2, at 7 p.m.
The Skidaway Cat Alliance Team (SCAT) is a group of dedicated volunteers whose mission is to provide for the humane treatment, health, welfare, and population control (spay/neuter) of the free-roaming cats on and in the vicinity of Skidaway Island.
When we bought our lot in 1998, there was no Dog Park in The Landings. There were few dog parks anywhere. But when we started building our home in 2001, a committee had been formed that actively raised money to build the Park we now enjoy. When we moved in, I joined the Park the first day.
If you use the Landings Dog Park, you must pay your fair share. Please purchase your 2021 purple dog tag today! Remember, owners of visiting dogs must undertake the same responsibilities as members, including being liable for any aggressive behavior, damages, vet bills, etc.
The Dog Park Committee currently is studying solutions for the muddy turf in the large area at the Park.
In February, the radar trailer deployed on Landings Way South to capture Northbound traffic just before the roundabout and Tidewater Way intersection captured some interesting data. The 85th percentile speed was 42 MPH.As background, the 85th percentile speed is that in which 85% of all traffic tends to travel at or below a particular speed at the studied point on a road.
Speed bins are listed below. These numbers are inclusive of the total of 20,628 vehicles speeds captured:
Vaccinations, parasite prevention, rabies, and health certificates are basic prevention protocols for the well-being of your furry family member. The Landings Dog Park requires proof of vaccinations (Rabies, Bordatella, DHLP/Parvo) for all dogs before the issuance of a Dog Park tag. As a responsible pet owner, it’s important to discuss preventive care and treatments with your Veterinarian as they aid in your pet's health.
The cumulative number of COVID-19 cases for Skidaway Island is 337 positive test results. This is an increase of 12 cases since last week's report. Even though eight or nine seems like a small number, given the size of our population, anything more than five cases per week puts us in the High Category of Community Transmission Index. Please continue to be careful out there!
Join the Skidaway Hamiltons and Abigails on Tuesday, March 16 from 3 to 4 p.m., when Metropolitan State University Professor Emeritus Dr. Ken Zapp addresses the issue of socialism past and present.
