Greetings from the Board
I volunteered to participate in the Russian Thistle Pull party at the Vistoso Trails Nature Preserve on October 1st from 8 am to 10. There were 37 community volunteers along with Mayor Joe & Mariann Winfield and council members Elizabeth Robb & Josh Nichloson and of course 12 Oro Valley staff. We removed (about 2/3rds) of the invasive plants on the old driving range, and the Town is sponsoring 2 more opportunities to join in the fun. Look for an announcement for signing up for October 22nd and/or November 12th (8 am to 10 am). We need to finish the former driving range and then tackle the weeds on the old first hole area. Siena, Fairfield, Center Pointe and Vistoso Highlands: let’s tackle the tumble weeds before they end up spreading seeds and tumbling up along our fences and common areas!
October is a very busy month in Rancho Vistoso: The fall yard/garage sale is Saturday October 18th (7 am to 2 pm) and the annual fall event will be held at Sunset Ridge Park on Saturday October 25th (from 8 am to 11).
And, of course, The Rancho Vistoso VCA will adopt the 2026 budget at our October 30th General Session meeting. The meeting will be available on zoom, and it starts at 5:30
Matt Wood – VCA President
