Newsroom Blast
Cascades Newsroom Blast
Monday, June 8 Updates
 
You're up north or on vacation. How does you neighbor inform you if there's a problem?
 
It's up to you whether you want your contact information in the Cascades Resident Directory. But did you know that you need to opt in if you want your name, email, and phone number to be visible in the Directory so your Cascades friends can find you?
 
Online Payments for Event Registration Is Safe and Easy!
 
When you register and pay for community events through Cascades’ website, your payment is processed securely through Stripe.
 
The Cascades website does not store your credit card number or bank account information. No one at Cascades or our website vendor has access to your credit card or bank account information. Payment information is transmitted securely through Stripe's protected payment system.
 
Please help us streamline the event registration process and make it easier for event hosts and Website Support staff by considering using online payments (credit card, bank transfers (ACH), Apple Pay, or Google Pay) instead of paying by cash or check.
