Deer Haven Estate Homeowners running for charity 
Last Updated: 8/11/2010

David, Jeannette and son Loren Durey have decided to join Brooklyn Park Church Team World Vision by running a 13.1 mile race to help change lives in Africa.  They are 
raising money to help dig wells and provide clean water in places like Kenya. When a community gains access to clean water, here's what happens:
  • The infant mortality rate is cut in half
  • Children can attend school instead of walking up to 6 miles for water each day
  • Women can spend time learning a trade to support their family instead of collecting water
  • Overall health is improved with clean water and sanitation
  • Crops and livestock thrive with clean water and proper irrigation
 
The problem of poverty can seem overwhelming. But there is something we can do. Whether you can give $10 or $100, no amount is too small. Together we can help change lives in Africa.  If you would like to help by sponsoring either of the Dureys, you can visit either of their personal pages by clicking on their name below:


 
Thanks for your support.

2010 National Night Out Family Picnic 
- August 3, 2010
Last Updated: 7/21/2010

If you were not able to attend, sorry we missed you! There's always next year.  There were approximately 55 people, comprising 22 families.  At least a few groups did not check in, so the actual number is likely closer to 60 people.
It was a great time for both adults and children.  The inflatable castle is always a hit with the kids.  This year, the police and fire department showed up to hand out stickers and frisbees to the kids.  We had a great variety of food this year.  Thank you to everyone who brought a dish to share!
For the adults, we added a new game, a $1 poker run.  We had pretty good participation.  The jackpot grew to $29.  The winner with a hand of 4-Aces went to Kelly!  We had a number of businesses that donated generous prizes.  These were given out as raffle prizes (need to be present to win).
The only thing that did not go as planned was the water balloon toss.  What was supposed to be a friendly competition turned into a free-for-all.  No one was safe from getting a good soaking.

Have ideas for future NNO events?  Join the NNO Committee and be part of this great community event.  Use the contact us to let us know if you are interested in joining the NNO Committee.

Monthly Motorcycle Runs 

Last Updated: 7/21/2010

We would like to continue the monthly motorcycle rides for the Deer Haven Estates homeowners who ride. Last year we held these rides during the week, but came to realize this did not fit with most people's schedules.  Therefore, we are looking for ideas and suggestions from fellow riders.  Please contact David or Brian if you would like to participate or help plan a motorcycle run.

Call David Durey 763-425-8120 or Brian Koch 763-425-6981 or more details.
