A big Thank You to Darcy Hickman!
On behalf of our entire TrailMark Community, we would like to send out an enormous THANK YOU to Darcy Hickman for her selfless years of service to the Social Committee. Both as a member and chair to the committee for many years, Darcy has been the organization and leadership behind years of fun and special moments for the families of TrailMark. We will miss her as she moves on to other volunteer opportunities in her life as she continues to be a servant leader in various organizations.

Kidz Market garage sale contest winners
CONGRATULATIONS to the Kidz Market contest winners judged during the garage sale last weekend!
The AMAZING secret shopper judges were Chris Weatherman and Brian Weatherman from the Weatherman Insurance Group at Allstate! Not surprisingly they had a very difficult time determining a winner so they instituted a few runner up categories.
First Place went to the Kidz Market Plant sale which was located on Finland. This young man had some outstanding recommendations and advice on how big the tomatoes would be and how many fruits one could expect throughout the season. Impressive!!
But each sale had something noteworthy and fabulous to offer and each was unique.
Great job all of you! 1st place will enjoy a $100 gift card to spend at Main Event, and the runners-up each will enjoy a $20 gift card to spend as they choose. Thanks for participating everyone! And thanks Brian and Chris for your help.
Congratulations to all of you! Quite the young entrepreneurs with big things in store for the future!

Business sponsors needed for 2022 events
The Social Committee is looking for business sponsors for our 2022 events! We are faced with rising costs of everything, including our community events. They have become more expensive and burdensome on the HOA budget. In order to allow TrailMark to continue offering quality events, we are asking our business owners to consider sponsoring events, or portions of them, so that we can continue offering them. Sponsorship might include paying for face painters at the summer concerts, 4th of July Parade or TM5K; paying for coffee and donuts at various events; sponsoring the tractor and barrel rides at the Corn Maze or carriage rides at Night at the Lights.
Sponsorship provides you and your business a unique opportunity. In addition to the goodwill your business receives, you build business awareness throughout TrailMark. Your sponsorship highlights products and services many are not aware are available right here. We are a community of 800 homes. We have many visitors to our community, many who attend our events. Your sponsorship provides yet another opportunity for greater recognition, the potential for new clients and customers.
If you or your business is interested in sponsoring one or more of these events please fill out the TrailMark Social/Community Event Application, or contact social@trailmarkhoa.org.
We love putting on these amazing events for our neighbors, but with rising event costs we need your help!
Thanks so much!

Lori Ross’ plan was unanimously approved by the Board and offers some refreshing ideas to include all of TrailMark. The garage sale is scheduled for Friday and Saturday, June 3rd and 4th.
Please watch for more details from Lori Ross in the months to come. We will post information that Lori gives us on the TrailMark website.
Congratulations to Lori Ross for executing an exciting plan for TrailMark!

NEW TRAILMARK SOCIAL EVENT SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM
In early September 2021, the HOA Board was approached with a request that the TrailMark Annual Garage Sale sponsorship change. After much discussion and consideration, the HOA Board concluded that, to be fair and transparent in supporting event sponsorship, an application process will provide potential resident and non-resident sponsors an opportunity to contribute to TrailMark while defraying event costs from the HOA budget. The HOA Board will provide sponsorship priority to TrailMark residents. However, selection will be based on several factors, including the over-all event plan. Applicants are encouraged to illustrate examples that they have the experience and necessary skills to confidently achieve their submitted plan. All applications submitted will be reviewed by the sitting HOA Board who will determine the sponsorship award.
To support this new approach, a form has been created to provide a standard format for submitting event proposals. Applicants must complete the Proposed Social/Community Event form, including plans, drawings, contracts and other appropriate documents. Applications must be submitted to board@trailmarkhoa.org. Please find the application here.
