The newsletter discusses issues regarding access to trails in Sandia Heights for hikers, emphasizing that arroyos within the neighborhood are on private property. Therefore, hikers are advised against hiking through these arroyos to reach trails and are encouraged to seek access from public lands instead. The article also highlights the importance of weed and fire season approaching, urging residents to maintain good landscape practices to prevent safety hazards and maintain neighborhood appeal.

Residents of Sandia Heights have been busy with various home improvement projects, including reroofing, window replacements, and HVAC upgrades. The community is also eagerly anticipating the opening of a new restaurant at the top of the tram with stunning views, offering both fine dining and a more casual bistro-style experience overlooking the city and ski area. In addition, residents have access to a community bulletin board with opportunities for artists to participate in an art tour, musicians to join the UNM Health Sciences Center Orchestra, and individuals to engage in various community activities such as dining events and youth chorus performances. Finally, an upcoming Easter Egg Hunt organized by enthusiastic community members promises a fun-filled afternoon with games, prizes, and photos with the Easter Bunny, demonstrating the vibrant community spirit in Sandia Heights.
