Community NewsNext Community Meeting on May 22 at CHI The next HCA meeting will be on Wednesday, May 22 at 7:30PM. Our local police commander will meet with us and also a county official who will report on the progress toward the upgrade of the park on New Hampshire Avenue. We will be voting on the candidates for HCA board positions. As usual, light refreshments will be provided starting at 7PM. Hillandale Swim Clubs We have 2 great pools in Hillandale offering special membership deals for new families. Check them out using the link to the pools page. Mosquito Control Guide We love the spring and the anticipation of summer fun. One thing that is not so much fun is the start of mosquito season. This one promises to be pretty bad with all the rain we have had. Read the Mosquito Control Guide for information about how you can reduce this nuisance. Hillandale eBulletin New bulletin to be published soon! Help Wanted We have several open committee chairs on the HCA Executive Board that need volunteers. Please consider the committee openings described here. HCA Membership Although we do not have mandatory annual dues we are still a very active and busy neighborhood association with a history that goes back decades. Each year we solicit a voluntary $20 dues contribution from all households in the greater Hillandale community. This money goes to cover our basic operating expenses each year and maintain a reserve fund. It also helps to pay for community activities such as the holiday party and National Night Out. Take a look at the membership information page for more on what the HCA does for the community.
