Dear Members,

Lauren and I have owned in IH for 32 years. During that time, I have only sent 2 emails, including this one, to the whole community (not including any sent as the Treasurer). The first was several weeks ago regarding online voting for IH, and now this one regarding the intentional misleading rumors that are being spread.

I do not have any agenda, I do not Hunt or ride, and only wish to share what I know to be facts.

1. Our fees will not go to $1,000 per month. There is no basis for this rumor. Should any BOD attempt to do this, the Membership would be able recall the board.
2. We are not going to hire 30 new employees. We currently have 6 full time and 6 part time employees.
3. There has been no discussion regarding paving all the roads. At the Annual Meeting several years ago, the Member voted against paving more roads.
4. The Outback has not been destroyed. I have not been in the outback for about 10 years, and when I heard this rumor, I took my Polaris and rode through the whole outback. It has never looked better – please go see for yourself! The quail hunt areas are a very small portion of the outback.
5. IH will not become a commercial quail operation – we are an HOA. The revised Quail program revitalized the program that was here when Lauren and I first bought. There was a Quail Barn at that time. Members were and are allowed to bring guests, to shoot with the Member. Keep in mind, quail hunters purchase birds raised by quail operators and bring them to IH to be released and hunted. The hunters are not shooting IH wildlife, such as our deer, but are bringing more wildlife to IH with the birds that are not shot.
6. The pictures that were shared at Sandy Steinruck’s “secret” meeting Saturday night- showing facebook posts of a non-member’s experience hunting at IH. This person was the paid guide – not a hunter. Shame on those who did not do their due diligence and are trying to use this misinformation as a reason to stop quail hunting.
7. Also shared at the Steinruck secret meeting, was a list of the people to vote for and those not to vote for. I am on the Bad Boy list! Three of the other Bad Boys were listed because they belong to Pine Creek (I do not – way above my pay grade). Is belonging to another club a crime? Thanks to these individuals, Pine Creek is giving IH dining room tables and chairs. Also, these individuals donated to the new Quail Barn, even though their membership in Pine Creek allows them to hunt Quail at no additional charge.
8. Two on the Bad Boy list are there because they are friends with people who donated to the quail barn. Seriously?
9. One person on the Bad Boy list is an Equestrian – why would that matter, unless they also want to prohibit horses.
10. The quail barn is not noisy and does not smell. Go see for yourself.
11. Many of the people on the approved to vote for, want to keep IH natural. What does this mean? Tear up the paved road? Stop eradicating invasive plants? Let our trails and fire breaks become overgrown? Should we stop maintaining our buildings and equipment?
12. The BOD’s actions followed our governing documents. The construction of the quail barn follows our Declaration of Restrictions Article 5, Section 1.

If you have already given your proxy and wish to change it to someone else, (copy attached) mcomplete a new proxy, be sure to date it, and send it to the office by tomorrow.

Thank you for your time and reading this lengthy email.

Sincerely,

Corey
