ANNUAL MEMBER PICNIC CANCELLED!
Dear Members,
After careful consideration and with deep regret, we have made the decision to cancel this year’s ABIA picnic due to the approaching coastal low and the potential hazards it may bring.
Over the past few days, the board and I have been closely monitoring the weather forecast for the weekend. Current projections indicate our area may experience wind gusts between 40–50 mph, intermittent torrential rain, and the possibility of minor to moderate coastal flooding, as reported by the National Weather Service.
We urge everyone to stay informed, take necessary precautions to secure your property, and most importantly, check in on your neighbors—especially the elderly—to ensure they are safe and prepared.
Thank you for your continued commitment to the association. We look forward to gathering together next year on October 10, 2026 for the ABIA picnic.
Warm regards,
Will Foxwell
President, ABIA

Please consider becoming involved in this cause. To learn more, Join the FB group linked below, 'Nuisance aquatic grass buildup on the Sound'.
Thanks, Jo
*********************************************************************
A couple of sound property owners met with a state rep last week to discuss the nuisance aquatic grass buildup along the sound bulkheads. He was very informative and helpful. He said the primary sound grass is Widgeon which is not invasive. The invasive weed Milfoil is here too, but Widgeon is the long stringy grass that is building up along the bulkheads creating a stench, clogging crab traps and boat motors, and restricting fishing. He is pursuing possible solutions with the town and marine fisheries.
A FB group has been created to organize property owners, share concerns, information and ideas, and pursue state and local resources to assist in addressing this nuisance issue. Join the group here - fb.me/g/3jiTzviW4/3I326wCX ... See MoreSee Less
