HF Spring Home and Garden Tour returns

We’re excited to bring back the HF home tour this year! The tour will take place on April 28th from 1 to 4 p.m.

UPDATE: Tickets are no longer available online.

Tickets are available only to HFNA members and are $5 per person in cash at 2724 Pencoyd Lane today, April 28, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. (Ticket holders will receive a wristband allowing them access to all homes and gardens on the tour.)

Visit some of the loveliest homes and gardens in our neighborhood—get inspired by stunning remodels or pick up some ideas to refresh your landscape.

Money raised from this event will buy plants for our five entrances.

Interested in showcasing your home or garden? Email Kim Standing at Kimberlylhogan@gmail.com. We’d love to have a variety of floor plans and models on the tour. Also, if your yard is in great shape or has an interesting feature, please consider allowing residents to peruse your yard only.

Spring Block Party – Saturday 3/23 @ 5pm

Our next block party is coming up THIS Saturday, March 23rd at the end of Burnt Mill Rd near the park. The event will start at 5pm and include the famously delicious Papi Queso Food Truck! This truck was recently featured on Food Network’s Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. Click here to check it out. We will also have a bounce house for the kids and some music to enjoy. Don’t forget to bring your lawn chairs and your neighbors!

Block Parties are a benefit of membership. You are welcome to attend as a member, by joining the association (you can pay dues at the event or online here) or by making a $20 per family donation to our association. See you Saturday!

HFNA Annual Meeting THIS Monday

Our Annual Meeting will occur on Monday, February 4th, at 6:00 pm at Huntingtowne Farms Elementary School in the Media Center. The Media Center is located in a separate building to the left of the main school building.

In addition to the regular annual updates regarding budgets and events, members will vote on several important items at this year’s meeting. We will be incorporating our organization, which will require a vote. We will also vote on our Bylaws, which will guide our newly incorporated organization. These Bylaws have been updated from our existing Bylaws and have been approved by the Board. Click here to read the bylaws.

Donations needed: The HF PTA is planning a movie night and a STEAM Fest (see below) and needs raffle items. Do you have connections with a business that would consider donating an item or gift card? Do you have a restaurant/movie/activity gift card that you won’t use? Perhaps your kiddos received toys, games, or books that were too young/old for them or that they weren’t interested in? Please donate them to the HF PTA and help raise funds for our neighborhood school! Email Sarah Hayden for more information.
