Circle of Friends

Among the qualities that make Oakmore a great place to live are the neighbors who participate in the community. The Oakmore Homes Association relies on the contributions of valuable time and skills from members and non-members alike. In addition to the volunteers who are currently on the board of directors, the Association would like to acknowledge the following friends who have provided support above and beyond the call of duty.
