The newsletter from March 2009 shares a cautionary tale about domesticated pets being released into the wild in Sandia Heights, where various predators reside. The story of Sally, a cat found under the evergreens with frostbite, highlights the dangers faced by pets not equipped to survive in such an environment. Additionally, there is a call to action for pet owners to prevent their pets from escaping and facing similar hardships, urging them to reconsider letting their dogs roam freely in the neighborhood to avoid encounters with wild animals. The Treasurer Report for January 2009 is detailed, showing account balances, cash flow, and outflow for different categories, providing a snapshot of the association's financial status at the time.

The GRIT newsletter from March 2009 contains updates on approved projects such as installing a metal roof, roof repairs, and replacing a garage door for certain properties in the community. Additionally, residents are encouraged to check the ACC Project Log on the Sandia Heights Homeowners (SHHA) website for information on projects managed by the Architectural Control Committee. Community events like the Lenten Series at the Church of the Good Shepherd, workshops on effective meetings by the NM State Association of Parliamentarians, Alpha gatherings at the Sandia Presbyterian Church, and a meeting of the Sandia Heights Wildflower Club are also highlighted.
