Pools

Pool 1- Behind Clubhouse 1 8201 Monrovia St.

Pool 2- Behind Clubhouse 2 7975 Monrovia St.

Pool 3- Behind Clubhouse 3 8100 Monrovia St.

Pools open Memorial Day and close Labor Day and are open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily during the season. The adult pool (4) opens at 8 am, Mon – Fri.

Members may accompany up to four guests per pool visit. Access to all pools is electronically controlled and requires a special entry card. Cards may be obtained from the management office for a nominal fee.

There is no lifeguard on duty at any of the pools. Swim at your own risk. An adult must accompany children under 12.

Absolutely no glass is allowed in pool areas. Any broken glass in the pool area results in immediate closure, a draining of the pool and an expensive cleanup which can be charged to the responsible homeowner.

Architectural and landscaping harmony is maintained throughout our community under the supervision and guidance of the FCHA Board of Directors and the Architectural Control and Common Grounds Committees.

Four Colonies is unique in that it is a planned development incorporating a variety of different home styles — townhomes, attached homes, and free-standing homes. Homeowners own their homes and the lots upon which they are situated. The association, of which you are a member, owns the common areas — private streets and all lands and buildings within the community that are maintained for the common use and enjoyment of the homeowners.  Homeowners can walk on individual lots outside fences.  HOA employees and contractors can walk inside fences to perform expected maintenance on individual lots.

As an owner of a Four Colonies home, you and your neighbors are required to be members of the association. Planned development living is a unique blend of individual property rights and community privileges, responsibilities, and restrictions. Our homeowners association essentially is a community “government." The members elect a nine-member board of directors to manage association affairs.

• The management office is at Clubhouse 2, 7975 Monrovia St.

• The telephone number is (913) 888-4920.

Turtle Park

The association maintains a small park and playground near the basketball and tennis courts adjacent to Clubhouse 3, 8100 Monrovia St. It includes a small shelter and picnic table. Young and old enjoy Turtle Park. There are swings and a bench for resting.

Walking Paths

The trail is a concrete sidewalk that wanders through the property. It is for the use of walkers and joggers. Bicycles, skateboards, roller blades/skates and other conveyances are discouraged. If you are exercising your dog or other pet, please remember to clean up after it. Our private sidewalks are used by residents walking for exercise or walking their dog. Many residents know each other by their respective pets.
