One of the most interesting and rewarding aspects of being a member of the Ruby Forest Homeowners' Association is being involved in Association Administration. As a committee chair or member, you will take an active role in leading Ruby Forest in a positive direction. You may participate as much or as little as your schedule allows, and every committee post is voluntary and your time is truly appreciated by your fellow Board members and your Ruby Forest neighbors. While each of these positions have current chairpersons, each committee is up for re-election each year and there is always room on every committee for as many folks as want to join (even mid-year). The more involvement we have the better the community is represented and when the work is carried by more, the burden is not too heavy for a few.
