  HCCA is sponsoring our third annual Chili Cook Off contest on Sunday, November 1 at 6 pm. You are invited to participate in one of two ways: As a chef entering your own homemade chili or as a judge to help select the winning entries.

  There will be Chili's Restaurant gift cards for first ($40), second ($20) and third ($10) place winners, based on the favorites selected by the tasting judges, along with other prizes. Event registration is requested (select Chef or Tasting Judge).  

  Entry is free! We will be accepting donations and selling baked goods so don't forget to bring a little cash with you. 

  There's no better way to spend a fall evening than eating homemade chili with your neighbors!

  HCCA invites you, your family, and your neighbors to join us on Saturday, November 7 at 10:30 am for a special celebration as we officially open our new sidewalk.

  This exciting milestone represents years of planning, perseverance and community collaboration to make Haw Creek a safer, more walkable and connected neighborhood. Our news post, A Sidewalk Years in the Making, includes the history of this project.

  We'll kick off the commemoration with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony on the sidewalk at Charlie Bullman Park, followed by a community parade along our new sidewalk to Creekside Taphouse.

  Once we arrive at Creekside, the celebration will continue with light bites courtesy of Creekside Taphouse and HCCA, along with $1 off beer!

  Bring the kids, decorate your bikes and strollers, and don't forget your four-legged friends – leashed dogs are welcome to join the fun.

  This is more than just a sidewalk. It's another step forward in making Haw Creek an even better place to live, walk, and connect with neighbors.

  You and your family are cordially invited to join us for a potluck dinner on Sunday evening, 6-8 pm, November 22 at Groce United Methodist Church. This is the Sunday before Thanksgiving; if you will be hosting Thanksgiving dinner a few days later, this is a chance to take a break by making one dish and joining us to share a variety of food from your fellow Haw Creek residents. If you have no plans for Thanksgiving, call this your Friendsgiving and take this opportunity to connect with your Haw Creek family. Invite your neighbors too!

  Every resident of Haw Creek is invited to join us for this free community dinner. Doors will open at 5:30 pm and dinner will begin at 6:00 pm. Please bring a dish to share; water and tea will be provided by HCCA.

  We will not be keeping track of who is bringing what food, but please RSVP with the number of people you will be bringing so we will have some idea of how many plates and cups we will need to provide.

  We look forward to this evening of sharing.
