Environmental Stewardship Committee Update – June 12, 2026

June Is Bike Month!

Cycling isn’t just good for your health—it’s good for the planet too. This month, consider leaving the car at home and choosing your bike for short trips. Every ride helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, eases traffic congestion, and makes our communities more bike-friendly.

Fun Fact: Southcott Pines has three bike racks available for residents and visitors, the Clubhouse, Sun Beach and Cherry Lane
