OAK RUN HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION  ¤  ORHA Information
  

Our Mission

Our primary purpose is to organize the recreational, social and cultural activities desired by the residents
and to facilitate discussion and communication among the Members and Management of Oak Run.


ORHA Software Standard

ORHA has established a Software Standard for information exchange. The program OpenOffice (or it's equivalent LibreOffice) provides
word processing, spreadsheet, presentation and other features all in one free software suite. It will "open" and "save as" most other
software formats, such as .doc and .xls. You can learn more about and download either of these programs at the following links.

To learn more about these programs click here:    http://why.openoffice.org/   or here:   http://www.libreoffice.org/features/

Orchid Club Auditorium Sound Room and Kitchen

Clubs, groups and organizations that need to have the Sound Room and/or Kitchen opened, please
contact the Director on Duty  ( NOT SECURITY ) . Requests must be made at least 3 days before
the requested opening. Any request made with less than 3 days notice may not be granted
and is at the discretion of the Director on Duty. Thank you, the ORHA Board.

 
Phone Book Updates


A listing, by Neighborhood, of all of the residents that are in the current Oak Run Phone Book, was recently
given to all Reps for their Neighborhood. This listing is for the Neighborhood Rep to keep for making the
appropriate changes and is sequenced by address for ease of verification of the information. 

All additions, corrections and deletions are to be delivered to John McHale (see page 21 in the phone book
for the appropriate form). Contact John by email at jmchale8@ix.netcom.com, mail the form to him at
8150 SW 108th St, Ocala, FL 34481 or drop it in his cubby (Nbrhd 10). To print a Form, click HERE.

The boxes on the Request Change Form are to be used as follows:

New Listing is selected when you are not in the current phone book at THIS HOUSE
NUMBER. This usually means someone who is new to Oak Run but it also
applies to someone who currently lives in Oak Run, but, in a different house.

Correction is selected when you are changing the information
currently in the phone book, such as a phone number.

Deletion is selected when a person has moved and therefore is
no longer living at that address in the current phone book.

If you have a question, please call John at 362-3465.

Note: Printed updates will be available in the library about every 4 months.

February President's Corner


Oak Run held it’s annual election for Directors and Reps on January 14th and we now have a new Board of Directors. You will find the results summary elsewhere in this newsletter and details have been posted on the bulletin Boards and the ORHA Website.
 
The new Board has already met with the first order of business being to select the President and Vice President for 2012. I turned over the gavel as President to Steve Routte, with Herman Brown serving as Vice President. I will continue as one of your Directors for the remainder of 2012.
 
Looking back on the 18 months as ORHA President I can honestly say I have enjoyed it very much. I learned what makes this great community work so well for its residents. It is the volunteers who give of their time so that everyone can live a rewarding, fulfilling life here. To be sure there have been some issues to be dealt with and some unhappy residents on occasion, but for the most part  I am convinced that virtually every resident is happy to live in Oak Run.
 
There have been a number of changes made over the last few years, but those I am most proud of are the culmination of goals I set when I first became a neighborhood rep 5 years ago. I wanted to eliminate or at least reduce the public arguing and name calling that I found when I moved here. The goal was not to eliminate differences of opinion but to change the way we all handle ourselves when we meet to discuss those differences. While none of us can expect DECCA to do everything the way we as individuals would do them, we are seeing things happen because ORHA has been trying to work with, rather than against, DECCA.
 
I also wanted to be sure that ORHA committees were not dependent only on a few key leaders but rather, to insure that duties were shared and a backup person was in place for almost all functions of ORHA. We now have those backups in the form of an Assistant Treasurer, Assistant Scheduler, Co-chairs for the Ambassadors and a Chairperson elected by an Executive Committee for Oak Run Travel each year. We have a Purchasing Agent and Assistant who have reorganized how supplies are purchased and billed. Best of all more people are getting involved in serving on the various Standing Committees and Service Committees because they see that with more people doing their part, no one person  is faced with doing it all.
 
In case you haven’t noticed, we also have a world class ORHA website and blog managed by a dedicated crew of 4 residents.  You can now see the facilities schedules for a year in advance and it is updated almost daily as the schedule changes.  Not only that but virtually anything you want to know about Oak Run and ORHA can be found there.  
 
So, with all the above in mind, please do not hesitate to get involved. There are jobs for people who want to spend just a little amount of time and jobs that a person can devote as much time as he/she would like.
 
Thanks for your support and I will see you in and around our wonderful community.

Jim Waddell, ORHA Past-President, 2010-2011
