Get Involved in our community
Miguel Guinard • April 7, 2025
Dear Woodland Park Homeowners,
ποΈ Get Involved in Your Community – Join a Committee
Woodland Park thrives because of homeowners who step up to help keep the community safe, attractive, and neighborly. We’re inviting homeowners in good standing to join one of our official HOA committees. Each group has a specific focus and works directly with the HOA Board through a designated team leader.
Please note:
- All committee participants must be team players and able to work respectfully and collaboratively. These groups are not complaint sessions, but solution-oriented teams.
- Each committee will select a team leader who will serve as the main point of contact with the Board.
π§ Community Ambassadors
The Community Ambassadors serve as neighborhood representatives — one or two homeowners per sector — acting as a direct liaison between their area and the HOA Board. They observe and report important issues, represent homeowner concerns, and help ensure that the neighborhood is maintained to high standards.
Responsibilities include:
- Observing and reporting the following types of concerns in their sector:
- Landscaping issues (dead grass, poor maintenance, etc.)
- Irrigation leaks or sprinkler failures
- Perimeter fencing damage or deterioration
- Rules and regulation violations (unapproved structures, garbage cans left out, etc.)
- Parking and noise complaints
- Lake or pond issues (algae, invasive species, excessive wildlife activity)
- Sectors 4 and 5 only: Monitoring amenity fields, including grass upkeep and equipment condition
- Being accessible to homeowners in their sector who wish to report concerns
- Relaying issues directly to the Board via the designated team leader
Expectations:
- Must be a homeowner in good standing with no active violations
- Must be professional and solution-focused, not confrontational or combative
- This is not a platform to enforce personal preferences or control neighbors — ambassadors are expected to follow HOA guidelines and support fair enforcement
- Only ambassadors may communicate with the Board, though helpers may assist in observing issues
- Ambassadors from each sector must choose one primary contact (team leader) to communicate with the Board
π Holiday Décor Committee
The Holiday Décor Committee is responsible for creating a festive, welcoming atmosphere in our neighborhood during the Christmas and winter holiday season. This includes everything from planning the design theme to installing and later removing decorations in the community’s shared spaces.
Committee members will collaborate on all aspects of the holiday setup and must be reliable, creative, and willing to contribute hands-on work.
Responsibilities include:
- Designing a holiday decoration theme for the entrance, pool cabana, and other common areas
- Taking inventory of existing décor and identifying any needed supplies (lights, garland, wreaths, etc.)
- Installing decorations in a safe and timely manner (typically after Thanksgiving)
- Maintaining the decorations during the season (e.g., adjusting fallen items, replacing lights if needed)
- Removing all decorations promptly after the holidays (typically after New Year’s)
- Providing a simple budget proposal to the Board for approval before purchasing any new materials
- Storing decorations properly in a designated area (if applicable)
Expectations:
- Members must be homeowners in good standing with no active violations
- Must be team players willing to collaborate respectfully — this is a working group, not a platform for personal opinions or complaints
- Committee must select one team leader to communicate with the Board and serve as the main point of contact
- Participation requires physical involvement in setup and removal — this is not just a planning group
If you enjoy the holiday season, have an eye for design, and don’t mind rolling up your sleeves, the Holiday Décor Committee is a great way to contribute to the beauty and spirit of Woodland Park.
π·οΈ Garage Sale Committee
The Garage Sale Committee organizes up to two neighborhood garage sales per year, working with homeowners to coordinate a unified event. While the HOA provides the platform and guidance, it’s the committee’s responsibility to manage participation, promotion, and logistics.
Responsibilities include:
- Choosing tentative dates for garage sales, spaced about 6 months apart
- Recruiting and organizing a list of participating homes
- Submitting the final participation list to the Board in advance of each event
- Promoting the event through social media apps (like Nextdoor, Facebook groups), flyers, and local online boards
- Installing and removing signage in common areas before and after the event
- Filing permits with the City of Orlando (or applicable agency) as needed
- Coordinating with the HOA Board for any approval, support, or budget (if signage or printing is needed)
Expectations:
- Must be a homeowner in good standing with no active violations
- Must be organized and detail-oriented, with good communication and follow-through
- Results are not guaranteed — participation and individual sales are the responsibility of each homeowner
- This is a coordinating role, not a complaint-based group
- One team leader must be chosen to serve as the point of contact with the Board
π Events Committee
The Events Committee focuses on planning fun and meaningful activities that bring our community together. From large gatherings to small recognitions, this committee supports neighborhood engagement and positive connections among neighbors.
Responsibilities include:
- Planning and organizing events such as:
- Holiday parties
- Food truck nights
- Community pool gatherings
- Neighborhood markets or vendor fairs
- Yard of the Month program
- Holiday decoration contests
- Creating and submitting budget requests to the Board for each event
- Coordinating logistics, including setup, communication, and volunteers
- Recognizing homes that demonstrate excellent upkeep or seasonal decorations
- Promoting events through flyers, email updates, and social channels
Expectations:
- Must be a homeowner in good standing with no active violations
- Must be collaborative and dependable, with a positive, can-do attitude
- Events must align with HOA policies and budgets — no unauthorized spending
- This is a planning and action group, not a platform for complaints or personal preferences
- One team leader must be appointed to act as the liaison with the Board
If you’re a homeowner who wants to make a positive difference, consider joining a committee that aligns with your strengths. Together, we can continue to build a strong and connected Woodland Park.

π’ New! Live Amenity Status Now Available Dear Residents, To help keep everyone informed, we’ve added a new Amenity Status widget to the Owner Portal . Simply click to expand the widget and you’ll be able to see the current status of community amenities, including: π Pool Status π¬ Mail Kiosk Access πΎ Dog Park Status β οΈ Important Notices and Temporary Closures Whenever we’re made aware of an issue or scheduled maintenance, we’ll update this section so you can quickly check the latest status before heading out. π Owner Portal: https://www.woodlandparkorlando.com/owner-Portal Need to Report an Issue? If you experience any problems with the PDK access system, please use the Support button within the PDK app . Your report is sent directly to me so I can troubleshoot the issue or coordinate with the vendor if on-site service is needed. Thank you to everyone who has been reporting issues and helping us keep the system running smoothly. We appreciate your support! Quick Tip for New PDK Users When setting up the PDK app for the first time, be sure to Allow Bluetooth and Allow Location While Using the App when prompted. These permissions are required for your phone to communicate with the door readers. If you ever see a “No Door Access” message, you can usually resolve it by opening your phone’s Settings , selecting the PDK app , and turning Bluetooth off and back on. In most cases, this refreshes the connection without needing to reinstall the app. ο»Ώ Thank you for helping us keep Woodland Park connected and informed!
Dear Residents, Please be advised that the community pool area is scheduled to be pressure washed on Monday, August 10. To allow the vendor to safely complete the cleaning, the pool and surrounding pool deck will be closed during the pressure washing. Access to the pool area will be unavailable until the work has been completed and the area is safe to reopen. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience and cooperation as we complete this routine maintenance to keep the amenity clean and well-maintained. Thank you for your understanding. Best Regards, ο»Ώ RealManage on behalf of the Board of Directors
