After serving on the LCPOA board since 1987, most recently as Vice President, Chris Cooke has resigned.

Chris is retiring, and he and his wife are selling their home to move south to be closer to their grown children. The Cooke family has lived in Barry Lakes for over 37 years, becoming an invaluable community staple and they will be greatly missed.

LCPOA President Scott Ghysels has appointed Conrad Ricklefs to fulfill Chris's term as interim Vice President. Carryl Daza was also appointed as interim Road Director. Both appointments were unanimously ratified by the Board.
