Pickleball has been established and tennis courts 7 & 8 at ES have been identified to be converted for full time pickleball use. In other changes:  the ORACLE is moving from a printed version to a digital version; there is elimination of free coffee; and the Convenience Store will be closed next season. For those of you who will be looking for some of the standard store items (toilet paper, tank cleaners, etc.) we will be attempting to carry these items in the Front Office for sale. The other big change coming is the renovation of the ORPS website. The Board created an ad-hoc Marketing Committee and they have spent numerous hours and lots of creative energy working toward improving the marketing of the Resort. This was considered a top priority as it is a window from the outside world into the beautiful community here. Other projects:  we will be replacing two badly torn lake liners,  sealing some cracks in our streets,  getting new freezers and a new dishwasher for the ES kitchen,  and various other smaller maintenance projects to make sure the Resort is looking its finest when you return in the fall.  
