Tree Removal


General News
With the recent drought Oakwood Glen has lost over 100 trees in the front and back parks. For everyone's safety we have hired a contractor to remove the trees and debris. While cleaning the back park up the contractor found and killed a very large snake. Please supervise your children playing in the back park.
