Lake Ashton

Lake Ashton is not a cheap place to live. It all about money and lots of it. Even storage of your personal motor home or boat $125/mo plus tax or even leaving your boat at the boat dock $50/mo plus tax, its money, money and more money. Even when I wish to have a free entertainment show for the residents here at Lake Ashton they want $375.00 for the ballroom. I have to pay for your entertainment. Give me a break! Even the restaurant is nothing you would talk about.

My sister owns in a community called Royal Oaks in Inverness, Fl near Lake Tsala Apopka about 80 miles from here, 15 miles west from the Pacific Ocean. Elvis made a film there at city hall call "Follow the Sun". Also at the historic downtown district there is a restaurant you would die for called Stumpknockers, the food is great. A store you have got to visit is called Ritzy Rags & Glitzy Jewels etc. Unusual things to see. Free storage for all motor homes and boats for residents with lock and key, Ballroom is free, pool table card tables, pool, shuttle board, house shoes, Over night parking. No Community director, HOA pays all the bills. She pays $650.00 total taxes per year. $162.00 monthly maintenance fee includes water, sewer, cable and mowing your lawn. Yes, she has a home about 3400 sq ft 2 bdrm, 2 baths, just like Lake Ashton only and over $100.000 cheaper without the big expenses. The developer gave the entire community to the residents, he is long gone. The roads are in great shape, better condition than Lake Ashton.

The Expenses for Lake Ashton are as follows for the year to the nearest dollar

Taxes/fees/CDD $5800.00
Electric $1,150.00
Water/sewer $800.00
Cable/Security $864.00

Today I am announcing my candidacy for the position of the CDD of Lake Ashton in Lake Wales, Fl. I will follow the steps of the late Jeff Salvin. My main goal is to weed out the crooks, thief’s, liars, dummy’s and the undesirables that are now presently running the CDD here at Lake Ashton. We can not afford 2 more years of the present leaders. Each CDD candidate has either called the police on us, they have stole money from all the Bingo Players, They have chat meetings and give out false information and thinks they know all the answers (she is still working on the drain pipes), and violated the Lake Ashton amenity’s by placing voting signs all around the club house. None, not one has any of these CDD members has done anything for the residents of Lake Ashton but cause trouble.

I also wish to make known that no Community district leader director shall have a shirt open that exposes her breast to the residents of Lake Ashton. That person will be fired. Also any director caught lying shall also be fired.

Here is what I have done for this community!

1. I have stopped the spraying of pesticides in Lake Ashton, and the state issue a violation to the management of the community.

2. I have stopped the flow of mud into Lake Ashton and also the state ordered the management to plant trees and scrubs along the banks of the streams.

3. I stop the ban of Pick-up trucks here in Lake Ashton, without much help from the residents. Got the Ledger involved and Channel 10 News.

4. I had the ELVIS show which everyone enjoyed. It was a sold out crowd. I gave all the money to Give Kids the world.

I asked the present CDD members what have you done to help people live better here at Lake Ashton? Answer: Nothing except Ban Ed King for 4 months from the clubhouse . The person who has done more than anyone else in this community has now been ban. What a bunch of ???????

ED KING

It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats ....

yet they are still POOR.

"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

You cannot lift the wage earner up

by pulling the wage payer down.

You cannot further the brotherhood of man

by inciting class hatred.

You cannot build character and courage

by taking away people's initiative and independence.

You cannot help people permanently by doing for them,

what they could and should do for themselves."

Bingo money profit was not going to charity. We were the ones that expose this scam.

State law says excess money from Bingo must go to public charity. Paul Pontious did not pay state or federal taxes and did not give much if any to state public charities. Instead he took all his friends by bus to a Brazilian restaurant in Orlando at $75.00 a plate. This is still a on going investigation by three state and federal investigation agencies. He stole money from the winners of Bingo and placed it in his pocket. He had a illegal 50/50 chance at Bingo. Never kept books on the winners and what he took in from Bingo. When he took over Bingo from Jesse Helms, he gave Paul Pontious $11,000, money left over from Bingo and it is now missing. I smell a rat. No books kept, no taxes paid, money missing, bus trips to high price restaurants, Bank records show that he filled his gas tank with Bingo money.

Elvis

Yes, it was me that brought Elvis to Give Kids the World city, and had him put on the Elvis show for the children. It was me that gave $1500 check to Elvis and he in turn gave it to Give Kids The World. You can call Elvis at 800-224-6037 or 719-200-8965 is name is Dennis Thornberry from Colorado. I wanted him to get the credit for the gift.
I also paid him $1000 for the Lake Ashton Show and also gave him the rest of the money when he preform at Give Kids the world. I kept not one red cent. I also help the kids have their meals and received a coffee cup for my services. I was also was invited to have dinner for my services to Give Kids The World.

JOE HUNTER

I have complaining about this "do nothing" Joe Hunter for years. He has send me 5 letters accusing me of things I did not do. On one of the letters I was in Maine. You can thank me for getting rid of this clown. He even refuse to accept my E-Mails. He ban me for going into the club house for a week. This guy is not welcome here at lake Ashton. He is as dishonest as Paul Pontious and his so call outlaw friends. Joe was working at three communities using our money. Why wasn't he not paying the Lake Ashton Bills. Was he placing money in his pocket? Did he received kickbacks from projects? If this isn't stealing I like to know what is. By-by Joe and don't come back. Take a long walk off a short pier. We won't miss you!

Blog

Yes it was me that started this blog to let all residents know what is going on here in our community. June Young wants NO ONE to know what the real truth is. The management sweeps all the bad news under the rug. You can't post anything on her web site and she gets paid $500.00/mo. I get paid nothing and I allow everyone to post any news, good or bad on this web site. Margo Stevens says I am not a resident, I lived here for six years, what am I ? People like Margo and June should take a hike along with do nothing Joe Hunter. My goal is to make this a honest community and lets kick the bums, Bingo committee, management, and crooks out.

ELVIS SHOW

Elvis Show

Yes, I was the one who put on the Elvis show 2 years back and gave all the money after expenses to Give Kids the World. I spend a great deal of time getting this show together. I even build the ELVIS sign as a back ground for Elvis. We even gave a show at give Kids the World. They all loved it. Not one red cent went into my pocket. Teacher Tricia Adams and "Do Nothing" Joe Hunter stopped me in given any more shows because they said it takes away from their entertainment series. What a bunch of crazy people that we have here telling us what to do with our money.

Christmas young ladies dancing to Christmas songs

Yes, it was me that tried to get these young school students to come to Lake Ashton to dance for us at Monday Morning Coffee meeting. But Trish Adams and Joe Hunter said NO. I said it is a free show for all residents to enjoy. Then they said you would have to talk to Margo Stevens because she has a Fireside chat at 10am. I called her and she said NO, her fireside chat was more important. She would not cancel her dumb fireside chat. The end of this story was I told the girls that Lake Ashton was not interested in seeing you dance and that Trish Adams, Joe Hunter and Margo Stevens should all be fired for thinking about themselves. Yes, their interest is only themselves not the interest of the residents.
