The pond on Secret Woods Drive had quickly begun to deteriorate after the fountain aeration motor went bad. Algae blooms were underway but before the blooms could get a grasp on the pond for the entire season, the board had the fountain fixed and the pond chemically treated. Once the chemicals were applied, a neighbor skimmed the pond's remaining algae. Those actions combined with a good rain have restored it.
