    Join HCCA at the library on Wednesday, April 2 at 7:00 pm as we host a free program on how to create a bird-friendly garden, presented by Tom Tribble, an avid birder for 45 years, who served six years as President of our local Blue Ridge Audubon Society and now is their At-Large-Ambassador.

    Haw Creek is a bird-loving community and we used to love hanging out the feeders to attract our feathered friends to our yards. And then came the bears, happy for these low-effort, high-calorie snacks in the neighborhoods of Haw Creek.

    As a "bear-wise/bird-friendly" community, we have to rethink how we can support our alarmingly dwindling bird population. What we each do, one by one, on our little plots of land can generate a combined big effect on our Haw Creek bird population, and this program will inspire and connect all of us!

    For over 100 years Audubon has focused on making the world a better place for birds. Today, birds face serious threats from habitat loss and climate change. With increased development and population growth, there are fewer undeveloped areas for our migratory and resident birds to find food, shelter and raise their young.

    The single most effective action individual home owners can take to help birds is to make their own yards more bird-friendly as they make planting choices this spring. Join us for this program to find out how.

    Registration is not required but it helps us plan for a successful event.

    The Haw Creek Community Association is hosting our second annual 5k race, the Haw Creek Hustle, on Saturday, May 17. Join us at Charlie Bullman Park for a celebratory fun run, a timed 5k race, and the post-race celebration. This event is intended to bring the community together, not just to hustle, but also to socialize with neighbors, meet new friends, enjoy some fresh air, and make lasting memories.

    HCCA is working with Glory Hound Events to ensure a fun and successful event. They are handling registration and all race information is available on their Haw Creek Hustle page.

    The race fees are $35 5K run or walk, and $10 Fun Run until April 30. Fee increases to $40 on May 1. Please register online.

    If you'd like to support this community event but don't feel like participating in the race, you can register and just not run the race or you can make a donation. All the event proceeds will go to HCCA and support our work in the community.

    All 5K runners will receive a custom race shirt. Fun runners will receive a fun prize at the finish line. Water and light snacks will be provided near the finish line. Please bring your own water bottle to fill to minimize environmental impact

    The awards ceremony for the 5K race will take place at approximately 10:15 am near the finish area. Special prizes will be presented to the top three overall male and female and top masters (40 and over) male and female. Awards will be given to the top 3 male and female finishers in various age groups, including 12 and under. Lots of awards mean lots of fun!

    Races like this can't happen without great volunteers. If you would like to be part of this event and be there for the runners and walkers, then please volunteer for any of the available spots.
