Canterwood Homeowners Association Architectural Control Committee – George Milliken Many thanks for the cooperation we have been given by the homeowners and the good nature by which you take our comments, suggestions and decisions. Our only goal is to keep Canterwood as beautiful it can be and to adhere to our chartered standards and practices. The one thing we really need in the coming year is a few more volunteers for our committee. All it takes is about an hour and a half at 9:30 in the morning two Wednesdays a month and when necessary about the same amount of time those afternoons at 3:30. Right now the responsibility falls on the shoulders of a very small number of us and we would sincerely appreciate a greater participation. Please call Holly at the HOA office if you are willing to volunteer.
