Improvements Coming in 2011
Playground - Two new pieces have been purchased for our playground. The Surfrider was installed
in April. A Comet II is on its way and will be installed this month. The Comet II is a new type
of circular merry-go-round and will replace the four seat rider. Your comments are welcome and
encouraged, please let us know what you think.
Tennis Courts - The back tennis courts are scheduled for a face-lift in June. We will be removing
a large tree that has been undermining the foundation. We will then replace the deteriorating
retaining wall on the back and left side to completely shore up the foundation. Both back courts
will be resurfaced and new nets provided. The gated entrance will be repaired to circumvent any
future vandalism. This will make it necessary to call the office to obtain your key for entrance
to these courts.
Reminder - OPOA Home Projects Approval
Fences, walls, storage buildings, room additions, swimming pools, decks, TV satellites, dog pens,
etc., must have a city building permit and also must be approved by the Board of Directors of
OPOA, before they are erected. Please read Paragraph (13) on page 11 in your Bill of Assurance
for details. Overbrook Addition has several building restrictions that go beyond the restrictions
required in the cities of North Little Rock and Sherwood. Save time and money by giving the
office a call at 753-4770.
Trail
Please use caution when walking the Five Mile Creek Trail. The very recent rains have washed
sections of the trail asphalt away Overbrook will be addressing this issue along with the City
of North Little Rock trail easement proposal as quickly as possible.
Pool
The pool will open Saturday, May 28th at 10:00 am. Regular hours will be 10:00 am to 8:00 pm
each day except Sunday. Sunday hours are 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Regular weekday hours will begin
Friday, June 3rd. Please note all children 10 and under must be accompanied by an adult when
at the pool. All children not yet potty trained must use a swimming diaper.
Private Parties
Private family parties may be scheduled through the OPOA office at 753-4770.
Private family pool parties can be scheduled from 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm in the evenings. The rental
fee for a two hour party is $125.00 plus $100 damage and clean-up deposit. This fee includes the
use of the pool for 2 hours after 8:00 pm, pavilion usage and (3) lifeguards. There is a limit
of no more than 50 guests per party. $225.00 is due on the date the reservation is made. Please
note commercial, business, school and church parties are not permitted.
Birthday parties for children 12 and under may be scheduled during regular pool hours. There is
a $25 rental fee for two hours use of the pool plus $3.00 for each non-member guest. Only one
children’s birthday party is permitted at a time. Advance reservations are required and are on a
first come basis.
The pavilion may be rented anytime between 10:00 am and 10:00 pm. The rental fee is $40.00 with
a $50.00 damage and clean-up deposit. Advance reservations are required.
Pool Guests
The pool guest fee is $3.00 per person and each guest must be signed in by a member. Guests may
use the pool as long as the member is present. Non-member babysitters for your children must pay
as a guest.
Overbrook members are permitted to add their immediate family members who do not live with them
in their homes, to a supplemental pool list. Your immediate family members may then use the pool
facility for the duration of the summer and can also be included in swim lessons and our annual
party. There is a charge of $25 per person to be added to this list. Immediate family members
are defined as and limited to, parents, sons, daughters, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Contact the Overbrook office (753-4770) if you are interested as these fees must be collected
before admittance is allowed.
Family guests pool passes are also available. If a member has immediate family visiting from out
of town, a week long pass may be purchased for $10.00 each. Your family member may then use the
facilities as often as desired during the duration of the pass. Passes may be requested through
the Overbrook office (753-4770) or at the pool sign-in desk.
Low Impact Water Aerobics
We will continue to have an adult pool hour beginning at 9:00 am on Mondays, Wednesdays and
Fridays. We really appreciate Mrs. Joan Tiefel, who has again graciously agreed to lead a
low-impact water aerobics class during this hour. Please contact Joan at 753-7821 or call the
office if you have any questions. The adult hour will begin Wednesday, June 8th.
