The March 14, 2023 annual meeting and board election of the Haw Creek Community Association had strong attendance with over 80 residents participating. Guests Kristina Israel, Community Engagement Manager, and Meredith Friedman, Neighborhood Service Specialist, spoke about their roles connecting the City of Asheville to local communities like ours.

Meeting highlights included honoring Bernard Arghiere with the “Dogged Determination” award for his work and leadership on the Masters Park parking lot; electing four new volunteers (Bruce Black, Shelley McKechnie, Liz Polfus, and Storms Reback) to the board of directors; and initiating a community discussion on the upcoming sale of the 26-acre property on New Haw Creek Road.
