Several different fundraising ideas were presented and discussed.

  • There will be a yardwaste spring “grace” period, May 17-June 25, when homeowners can put out excessive yardwaste that will not fit in the cart and have it removed.  Extra lawn waste needs to be bagged or tied like in previous years.
  • All HOHA sponsored events are always free to current HOHA members.  Residents of Harvey Oaks that aren’t current HOHA members can attend events for $14.00 per person.  Guests of current HOHA members can attend for $7.00 per person.  Grandchildren of current HOHA members are admitted at no charge at all events.
