Hello Bridgehaven Community: We have recieved the following information from the Jefferson County Health Department that you might be interested in:
I’m writing to let you know about upcoming free trainings that members of your HOA or community organization who have septic systems may be interested in attending. Please review the press release below and reach out to me with any questions. Thank you!
Free Septic System Classes Offered
(Port Townsend, WA) – Taking care of your septic system can save you money by extending the life of your septic system and prevent costly repairs. It is also an important part of protecting public health and our valuable water resources.
Jefferson County Public Health is offering Septics 101 & 201. Completing both classes will qualify you to do your own inspections, if your system is eligible.
Course Descriptions:
Classes are free, but registration is required. Space is limited. Please note: there is a $12.97 fee for homeowners who are eligible and want to become authorized to inspect their own system. Contact 360-385-9444 or visit the links below to sign up.

Below is a link to a voluntary community Emergency Preparedness Survey. It will go to Deb Reithmeyer, our Emergency Communication/Preparedness Coordinator.
The Emergency Preparedness Seminar on Saturday, October 12th at the Marina Pavilion has been cancelled due to family emergency. It will be rescheduled in the future.
There is also a form to fill out if you have any tools or items to donate to the Bridgehaven Emergency Shed.

A big thanks to Matt Maynard for over five years of service as Bridgehaven's Marina Manager.
MIchael Donaldson has volunteered to take over the position.
We have been having people who are using our Marina leave the gate open, and some who have left the gate/door at the entrance to the dock open as
well.
People have also noticed non-Bridgehaven members using the Marina facilities. The whole marina area is off limits to any who are not members in good standing in the club.
Some have tried to justify their presence down there by saying they are a friend or relative of "so and so", who is a member in good standing. The rule is that if you have guests who want
to use the marina, then YOU the BCCA member, must be physically present there too.
Bridgehaven renters do not have marina priviledges.

Since we are a small community and want to keep our "conversations" for our ears only, we set it up as what
is called a "closed group". That means that the only people that will be able to read or write posts are those who are BCCA Members. When you post to the Bridgehaven FB page, members only
will get notifications of the posts, and may reply. If you would like to try it out, request membership there on the site. Requests will be screened to make sure they are membrs of our
community. Link above.
