Sad News

It is the Board’s sad duty to inform the Skytrack community of the passing on December 26th of long-time managing agent and friend of Skytrack, Elia Malara.  Our condolences are extended to his widow, Kathleen, and to the rest of his family and friends.

Heating System Repair

As most of you realize, the heating system is not operating at it’s maximum capacity.  Our boiler maintenance company has checked it out and found that a critical part must be replaced.  Unfortunately, that part will not be available until Tuesday.  Until then, we will have to limp along in the present capacity.  We are sorry for the inconvenience.
