We have heard you...

One of the biggest pleasures we get as a staff at The Hollows is seeing our Owner's having fun!

A number of you have mentioned that you would like to have some organized social clubs/groups here at The Hollows. We have been brainstorming ideas that might appeal to you as a community based on your comments. Underneath each idea, we have added some things that the club could do and even ways that the clubs could intermingle. This is just a jumping off point! There is so much you could do and the Hollows Staff would like to be there to support you and help you to get your clubs started.


POTENTIAL SOCIAL CLUBS:

We recognize that we have full-time residents and 2nd home owners here at the Hollows. We would like to encourage our 2nd home owners to participate in these social clubs as well, knowing that some clubs will only meet once a quarter.

One thing we ask....use your community!

Have a book club meeting at the Hilltop Smokehouse or Amphitheatre
Meditate by the shores of Lake Travis
Have your card club meet in the Beach Club Grill
Use the trails to Geo-Cache
Etc.

We have developed a Club Brainstorm & Ballot Sheet, that we hope you will look over and fill-out to point us in the direction of the Clubs you are wanting. You will find that sheet at: http://sites.google.com/site/beachclubmenu/home/the-hollows-clubs-2 (see the bottom of the page).
