Welcoming New Faces, Celebrating Hard Work, and Preparing for Fall 🍂
Even with these 90°+ temperatures and yards drying out faster than we’d like, our neighborhood continues to shine. The amount of pruning, trimming, raking, and curbside cleanup happening across Twin Lakes “A” is remarkable. 🌿🔥
Your dedication even in the heat is keeping our neighborhood looking cared for and inviting. We know the city hasn’t been picking up debris as quickly as we’d hoped, but your persistence shows real pride in our community. Thank you for everything you’re doing. Keep up the great work.

🍁 Fall Cleanup Plans
As we move toward cooler weather, remember that a large neighborhood dumpster will arrive in October for our annual fall cleanup. This will help everyone finish those bigger projects and dispose of items the city may not collect promptly. Your continued effort keeps Twin Lakes “A” one of the most respected neighborhoods in Little Rock.

🌟 New Officers & Board Members
We’re proud to welcome a new slate of officers and board members who have stepped forward to help guide our neighborhood. Their willingness to volunteer and serve is deeply appreciated. Please join us in wishing them well as they carry our traditions forward and help keep our community strong.

🏡 Welcoming New Neighbors
We also want to extend a warm welcome to our new residents and new Association members on Twin Lakes Drive, East Twin Lakes, and Marlin. We’re glad you’re here, and we hope you quickly feel at home in our neighborhood. 🌟
Twin Lakes “A” has a long history of friendliness, cooperation, and pride — and we’re excited to have you as part of it.

🚶‍♂️🌊 Public Right‑of‑Way & Lake Access
Many neighbors continue working in the public right‑of‑way to ensure safe, clear access to the lake. This ongoing effort protects one of our greatest neighborhood assets and keeps it enjoyable for everyone. Thank you to those who quietly put in the work — trimming, clearing, and maintaining these shared spaces.

❤️ In Closing
Your dedication — even in the hottest part of summer — shows what makes Twin Lakes “A” special. Stay cool, stay safe, and know that your efforts truly matter. Together, we’re keeping our neighborhood beautiful, welcoming, and strong.

With temperatures holding in the 90s and expected to hit 100° by Tuesday, many of us are seeing brown or dry patches in our lawns and feel tempted to water more often especially during the heat of the day. But that can actually stress the grass even more.
Our resident Master Gardener shared this helpful guidance:
🌱 Water deeply and early in the morning, between 4:00 AM and 8:00 AM.
This timing reduces evaporation and helps prevent fungal growth.
💧 Aim for about half an inch of water.
That’s enough to help the grass survive the extreme heat without over‑watering.
🌙 Avoid watering in the evening.
Moisture sitting overnight can lead to disease.
Staying consistent with early‑morning watering will help your lawn handle the upcoming heat wave much better.

- Camaraderie among volunteers and participants was unmatched. Everyone worked together with genuine joy and purpose.
- Low Turnout did not dampen the spirit of the event. Instead, it highlighted the need for improved promotion and earlier planning—something the new volunteers are already eager to tackle.
- Great Food, great help, and great ideas made this Derby feel like a true community celebration.

Urgent Appeal for Volunteers & Support – Annual Fishing Derby
Good afternoon, neighbors. We are just over 30 days away from our annual Fishing Derby, and this year we urgently need your help to make it happen.
Several of our long‑time volunteers are no longer available, which means we must pull together as a community to keep this tradition alive for our children, families, and neighbors.
We urgently need volunteers for:
- Cooking Team — grilling hot dogs and hamburgers for our young fishermen and adults
- Awards & Registration — managing participant names, trophies, certificates, and prize distribution
- Youth Assistance — helping children safely reel in fish
- Event Hosting — if anyone is willing to host in their backyard, all we need is space and a BBQ grill
We also need donations of:
- Water & Soft Drinks
- Chips or Snacks
- Trophies, Certificates, and Small Awards
About the fish
We have not yet secured the $1,000 donation needed to purchase fish this year. Mark Ring and I have been feeding the catfish regularly, so the fish should be close to the bank — but we still need all hands on deck to make this Derby successful.
This event cannot happen without community support
If you can volunteer, donate, or help in any way, please respond as soon as possible. This is one of our neighborhood’s most cherished traditions, and together we can keep it going.
Thank you all for your continued support and commitment to Twin Lakes “A”.
If you would like to help keep this tradition alive please contact [email protected] or text I will help to 501-920-3092 if you have questions text or call 501-920-3092, your help is appreciate.
