We hope everyone will have a great season at our community pool. Having said that, we kindly want to remind everyone of the pool rules which help to maintain a safe and FUN experience!

E-Bike Regulations in Poway

Poway has introduced e-bike safety rules to help keep everyone safe. Children under 12 may not ride e-bikes in Poway, and all riders under 18 must wear a helmet. Riders under 18 are also not allowed to carry passengers. Speed limits now apply depending on where you ride, up to 28 mph on roads, 20 mph on bike paths, and 10 mph or less on sidewalks (5 mph in school zones when children are present). If your child rides an e-bike to school, please check your school’s requirements, as many campuses now require a safety course and parking sticker. Thank you for reviewing these rules with your child to support safe riding in our community. Click for More Information on City of Poway Website

Agreement Form for Use of Common Area

Summerfield HOA is a family-friendly community, and our shared spaces are here for everyone to enjoy. If you have an upcoming event and would like to use the Summerfield Community Space, please complete the Agreement Form for Use of Common Area. You can find it on the Summerfield Website under ‘Pool info” and the link is also shown below. This helps us avoid double bookings and ensures everyone has a fair opportunity to use the space. Thank you for helping keep our community welcoming and organized!

Doggy Do-Do’s and Don’ts

Summerfield is not only a great neighborhood for families, but also for dogs. We ask all dog owners to please pick up after your dogs. It is common courtesy and required by the Summerfield CC&Rs. Article VI, Section 8 of the Summerfield CC&Rs states: “Dog owners are required to immediately remove any deposits their dogs might place upon the Common Areas, private Lots, streets, or elsewhere in the Community…”

TIP: doggie bags are located in 3 areas within the community for residents to use.

According to San Diego County Code section 62.669(a) and California Penal Code Section 597, dogs must be kept on leashes and the person holding the leash must be capable of controlling the dog while in public.

Poway contracts with the Humane Society for animal control, including lost and stray dogs and barking dog complaints. The number is 760-888-2275. See this web page for more information: Animal-Services

For more information, see Pet Ownership Laws.

Thank you for keeping Summerfield safe and clean not just for us humans but for our canine friends too!

Summerfield Annual Easter Fun

Families and friends gathered for our Annual Summerfield Easter Egg Hunt, where children enjoyed searching for colorful eggs filled with treats and surprises. Residents also had the opportunity to take memorable pictures with the Easter Bunny, creating smiles and special moments for everyone. It was a joyful day filled with laughter, community spirit, and fun for all ages. Check out our Summerfield Estate Facebook page to check out pictures from that day!
