Weekend “To Do” List to Reclaim Golf Course Acess

Some of you have already joined the private “Sunriver Golf” Facebook group that I created at:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/sunrivergolf4owners/

As a Facebook private group, you can post comments that are directly visible only to other members of the group.

Here’s a recent posting suggesting action to take this weekend. If every Sunriver owner reading this post would complete the “To Do” list this weekend it would have immediate and enduring effects.

#1 Submit an owner comment to the SROA Board.

Two ways to do that:

  • Best option: Fill out the form at this webpage:
    https://www.sunriverowners.org/…/boa…/contact-your-board
    Be sure to enter the required fields and check these boxes:
    [ X ] General inquiry, question or concern …
    [ X ] For written inclusion into board meeting record …
    I would like a follow-up response …”
    ( * ) Yes, please

OR

  • Alternative: Send an email to this address:
    TO: infosroa@srowners.org
    CC: JamesL@srowners.org
    SUBJECT: Comment for the May 15 Board work session
    Begin the message with:
    Please read these comments at the May 15 work session and include them in the record. I would like a response.
    Dear Board Members,
    … [your message]
    Respectfully,
    [your name and Sunriver address]

Whichever approach you use, share your concerns, questions, and requests in your own words. I would suggest that you ask for explanations about what and how (and perhaps when) the Board is doing in response to the recent lawsuit by Persida Myers and why the Board apparently decided not to contest the Sunriver Resort privatization of the golf courses, even though there appears to be a perpetual easement guaranteeing owners’ access.
See the material I’ve posted on the following page if you want to reference details.
Lawsuit – SUNRIVER NEIGHBORS

Also, feel free to post questions here or send me a private message.

#2 Submit a Letter To The Editor of the Sunriver Scene

Go to this webpage for instructions.
https://www.sunriverowners.org/departments/communications

You can click on the email icon for “Berger, Susan” and fill out the form, or send an email:
TO: susanb@srowners.org
SUBJECT: Letter to the editor
Include your name, Sunriver address, phone number, and email address.
The text should be no more than 200 words.

You might reference my “Chorus of One” about the lawsuit and owners’ potential rights for access, which you can read here:
https://sunriver-scene.paperturn-view.com/may-2026…

Just speak your mind, perhaps questioning the Board’s inaction and secrecy. Feel free to point readers to this group:

#3 Recruit friends to subscribe to this blog and/or join the Facebook group!

On Facebook, we’ve got a really substantial group with 75 members already. But we want to push this over 100 or more before the end of May.

I can’t emphasize enough how important all three actions are at this juncture. Everyone here knows that the Board feels completely at ease by simply patting you on the head and ignoring you if you’re alone or only a couple other owners are with you.

But if the Board were to get scores of comments submitted before their Friday work session, you can bet they’ll pay serious attention.

Finally, some of you might wonder … “Well Paul, what if they still just brush us off?” Then … A very practical next step is an owners’ petition for a vote of SROA members directing the Board to take action to protect our right of access.

But let’s not get ahead of where we are in this campaign. First, we need to make sure the Board understands that a *lot* of owners are serious about restoring our rights.

Let’s go!
