14 THE CHARBONNEAU VILLAGER April 2022

CCC Activities

By JENNIFER WAGGONER

Spring is the season of new beginnings

With the lifting of the mask mandate and the opening of the Charbonneau Country Club Activity Center comes the planning of activities .
Activity Center Open House
Please join us as we celebrate the opening of our new activity center . After 2 1 / 2 years of meetings , planning and construction , the doors will be open , the refreshments will be chilling , and the band will be playing .
The event takes place 4-7 p . m . Thursday April 14 .
Charbonneau ’ s Easter Egg Hunt Happens April 16
The FREE Charbonneau Easter Egg Hunt will be held on April 16
outside behind the Country Club . Be sure children dress for the weather and arrive in time to greet the Easter Bunny and Tutu the clown , who will arrive at 9:30 a . m . for photo opportunities . The hunt will start promptly at 10 a . m . We will have Easter baskets for each child to use . After the hunt , the children will bring back the basket , and we give them a “ goodie bag ” in return with their found eggs .
Fifth Friday at Five
“ Fourth Friday at Five ” is back as is “ Fifth Friday at Five ” on Friday April 29 at 5 p . m . At this social event , residents will enjoy hors d ’ oeuvre from one of our approved caterers , and Two-Bit Brothers will perform . Be sure to bring your own beverage and enjoy the company of your fellow Charbonneau neighbors . If you know of someone who has recently moved to Charbonneau , be sure to let them know about this event and how they can purchase tickets , which cost $ 10 . It would be nice to invite newcomers to sit with you , make them feel welcome and introduce them to others .
To attend , you will need to purchase a ticket , which go on sale at 9 a . m . on April 1 . If you put it off , you risk the chance of the event selling out . Only 150 tickets will be sold and the event has been known to sell out in one day .
WilsonvilleSTAGE
WilsonvilleSTAGE will be returning May 13 , 14 , and 15 to perform “ Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike ” by Christopher Durang and directed by Janet Steiger Carr . The play centers around the lives of Vanya , a 50-something gentleman who writes plays about molecules , and his sister , Sonia , a lady with regrets who does a wonderful Maggie Smith impersonation . Their existence takes a Chekhovian turn when their Hollywood starlet sister visits the family house with her current young gentleman friend and decides everyone must go to a costume party dressed as characters from Snow White . Add in a housekeeper with a penchant for outbursts of decidedly psychic origins and a luminous young visiting neighbor who plays a wonderful
molecule and you have a recipe for what will prove to be a delightful evening ( or matinee ) of theater .
Tickets will be available for purchase 9 a . m . April 15 at the CCC Activity Center .
Free document shredding
Windermere Real Estate and Charbonneau Country Club are teaming up to help you with some spring cleaning . A shredding truck will be stationed next to the Windermere building for FREE on-site shredding of documents May 14 10 a . m . -12 p . m .

Charbonneau directory changes
Spring is here , and it ’ s time for the CCC office staff to begin updating the Charbonneau Resident ’ s Directory . This booklet is not just a resident directory . It also contains helpful information about Charbonneau businesses , homeowners associations , architectural control
policies and much more .
For those who are already listed , please check to make sure the information in the green-colored 2021 directory is current . The directory information includes resident phone numbers , and it is possible that this information may have changed . The deadline for making changes is May 18 , which is the date of the CCC annual meeting . If you have recently moved to Charbonneau , be sure to contact the CCC office staff at 503-694-2300 or office @ charbonneaucountryclub . com and let them know how you would like to be listed in the directory . The directory will be printed and delivered by the post office exclusively to Charbonneau addresses sometime in June .

Real Estate Today with Lynda What You Can Expect from the Spring Housing Market

• Mortgage rates will climb
• The selection of homes available for sale may modestly improve
• Home prices will continue to appreciate , just at a slightly slower pace .
Won ’ t increasing mortgage rates cause home prices to fall ?
While some people may believe a 1 % increase in mortgage rates will impact demand so dramatically that home prices will have to fall , experts say otherwise . Doug Duncan , Sr . VP and Chief Economist at Fannie Mae , says . “ What I will caution against is making the inference that interest rates have a direct impact on housing prices . That is not true .”
Feel free to call me to discuss the housing market or just to obtain a chart that supports Mr . Duncan ’ s statement . I am always here to help .
