HAAA BUSINESS
Election News – Board Candidates
Would you have some time and expertise to give the HAAA?  We are seeking interested candidates for the election to the Board of Directors in September.  If you  are interested or would like more information, please contact any board member or e-mail the board at haaa.usa@gmail.com.

Park Clean-up
All members please consider helping the HAAA clean up your park. A project day has been scheduled during Hoagland’s clean up days on May 11. The project will include anything from simple trash pick-up to washing windows and getting the planters ready for planting. This is a great opportunity for teens (youth groups, community centers, scouts and sports teams) who are looking to earn community service credit.

New Benches for the Park by Joey Shell
At the April HAAA Membership meeting Joey Shell, Boy Scout Troop #348, asked if he could build several benches for the park before Hoagland Days. If you would like to help, Joey is raising funds for this project.

Hoagland Days – Getting Involved
Hoagland Days is the HAAA’s primary fundraiser and proceeds made from this FREE festival are used to keep your park and pavilion well-maintained. If you or your business would like to get involved contact Annie Counterman (447-1526), Festival Chairperson and visit our web site for a schedule of events and contacts.
