Private BLPOA Facebook Group 

​

​

The BLPOA Facebook Group is private.  Only BLPOA members and their family members are permitted access to it.

 

​

​

1) Scope & Penalties

Posts to this private group must always be of a primary interest to the BLPOA community. This rule and those that follow have been adopted to help guide users to interact in an acceptable manner to all. Violation of any of these rules can result in user warning, post deletion, temporary suspension up to 30 days or expulsion from the group. This is dependent upon the severity, frequency and number of offenses by the user.

​

2) Access

Access to this Group is limited to BLPOA Members and their family members. It is a privilege, not a right. A boyfriend, girlfriend, fiancée, etc. to a member does not qualify for access. Access may be withdrawn if you move out of the Association or if you fail to keep your BLPOA membership dues paid in full.

 

3) Privacy & Photos

This Group is private. Our content is visible only to those in the Group. Please do not share our content elsewhere. Effective January 1, 2024: If you submit photo(s) to the BLPOA or post photo(s) to our FB Group; you agree to convey a "license to the BLPOA to use it as needed for any format" (Calendars, FB, Web, Emails, etc.) unless the word "copyright" or © is visible on (or in the caption of) the photo. Photographers retain ownership of photos and will be credited when used.

 

4) Blocking an Admin or Mod

Do not block an Administrator or Moderator of this page. Doing so will result in an automatic ban. Posts to the page that are created for a "limited audience" will be removed. All posts to the page must be visible to all members.

 

5) Hate Speech, Bullying or Similar

No bullying, threatening, intimidating, arguing, gloating, aggressive or passive-aggressive behavior is allowed. Negative comments regarding race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, gender, etc. will not be tolerated. The BLPOA Facebook page is intended to be a "family-friendly" page. Everyone here should conduct themselves accordingly.

 

6) Buying, Selling, Promotions, Spam & Politics

Posts offering services or goods to buy, sell, rent, free, etc. or for fund raising are not permitted (exception: BLPOA Store & Website). See Rule 10 below for more info. Posts for changes in hours of operation, ownership etc. of a business or events at a business with all profits to benefit non-profit organization are OK; as are requests & replies for reputable persons, contractors, etc.; No lengthy testimonials, nor political or spam posts please!

 

7) Complaints & Negative Posts

Complaints & negative posts are not permitted. These types of posts are non-productive. They do more to foster hostility & ill will more than anything else. Issues should be taken up directly with the source -PRIVATELY- in a mature and responsible manner. If unable to obtain relief; contact the law enforcement agency responsible: Wakefield Police, Marine Patrol, etc. The BLPOA is NOT an enforcement body.

​

8) BLPOA Policies & Procedures

Questions & concerns with the BLPOA policies and practices should be sent to: president@blpoa.com -and- the director responsible as shown on: www.blpoa.com/officers-and-board-members. Examples: Road issues (wash outs, ice, snow plowing) should be sent to the Road Director; Issues with BLPOA Dues should be sent to the Treasurer; etc.) . Please remember BLPOA Officers and Board Members are volunteers - your patience awaiting a reply is appreciated.

 

9) Law Enforcement Activities

Posting of any law enforcement activities (Wakefield Police, State Police, Marine Patrol, Fish & Game, etc.) on BLPOA owned roads, properties or on the lake itself are not tolerated.

 

10) Suggested Pages for Member Products & Services

Since advertising & posting of products and services are not permitted on the BLPOA page, we suggest other Belleau Lake area specific FB pages such as: www.facebook.com/groups/577133083231148 for buy, sell, swap free and www.facebook.com/groups/2527487744085102 for contractors services (or other FB pages, Craigslist, etc.).
