Condo V- March 2026
March is known for several significant aspects:
• Named After Mars: March is named after Mars, the Roman god of war, and marks the beginning of spring (3/20) in the Northern hemisphere.
• Weather: It is often characterized by unpredictable weather, famously described as “in like a lion and out like a lamb.”
• Daylight Savings Time: Turn your clocks ahead (3/8).
• Holidays and Observances: Key celebrations include International Women’s Day (3/8), St. Patrick’s Day (3/17), Ramadan (3/19-20), and Palm Sunday (3/29).
• NCAA Basketball: March is also famous for “March Madness,” the NCAA basketball tournament.
• Historical Events: Notable historical events include the ‘Ides of March,’ which marks the assassination of Julius Caesar (3/15). “Et tu, Brute?”.
These elements make March a month rich in cultural significance and historical importance.
Project Update
With the snow and cold weather, work has been delayed on the Woodland Court basement. It should pick up again as the snow melts, and it is safe to ask people to enter the basement to review their items. We ask that any items you have in the basement made of cloth be removed. If you do not remove these items, they will be discarded. We ask everyone using this basement to review what you store there and remove what you no longer use. Please email Secretary Ann Kiss (frauknoth@optonline.net) to arrange a time to get access to the basement for these purposes. A blast and/or individual calls will be made as a reminder prior to the work starting.
More Concerning Weather …
Upon reviewing our by-laws, Condo V is not required to remove snow or ice leading from the sidewalk to the front door. However, through the contract with our landscapers, they will remove the snow up to the front door when we have a storm. It is then the residents’ responsibility to keep the walkway to their door clear of ice and snow. It has been a long, cold winter; we hope everyone got through it safely and in good health!
Have a good month—let’s March into Spring!

HOUSE RULE
OF THE MONTH
CLOTHES DRYER VENTS
Clothes dryers and vent pipes must be cleaned once a year to avoid fires. Dryers run very hot and an accumulation of lint in the dryer and the vent pipe can cause a fire. HOA maintenance charges a fee for the service, or you can hire an outside company. Please think safety first regarding this need!!
