Join the Haw Creek Community Association at our annual meeting on Tuesday, March 11 at 7:00 pm at the Library. There will be updates on community developments and events planned for 2025. On hand will be Carrie Lee, the APD's Community Resource Officer for East Asheville, to provide an update from the police department.
Also on hand from the City of Asheville will be Meredith Friedheim, Communication Specialist, and Dustin Clemens, Capital Projects Division Manager, who will talk about the status of the New Haw Creek Road sidewalk extension project. They are in the process of finalizing construction start details and expect we'll see activity before the end of February.
In addition, HCCA board member Shelley McKechnie will discuss her new book, Stronger than the Storm: Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina. The book is a compilation of local writers and artists who share their essays, poems and artwork. All proceeds benefit local recovery efforts.
Meet the candidates seeking election to the board and share your thoughts about neighborhood priorities. We'd also like to hear your ideas for community events.
The meeting will close with a dessert social and an opportunity to get to know your neighbors. If you care to you are welcome to bring your favorite dessert but it is not necessary as a number of board members are excellent bakers.
Registration is not required but it helps us plan for a successful event.
