2008 Mission Statement

Greetings Neighbors!

The Deep Creek Civic Association’s mission is to turn strangers into neighbors and neighbors into friends. We know that this is a great community to call home and that is why a group of your neighbors volunteer to make the Deep Creek Civic Association available for you to enjoy. Civic Association membership is voluntary; unlike the two Property Owners Associations. We are a non-profit organization that has been in existence since 1985.  Our main purpose is to arrange community events to give members opportunities to meet their neighbors while having fun. We also publish a monthly newsletter to keep you informed on the happenings in our community. Our goal is to impact our Deep Creek community in a positive way. Each year we award a college scholarship and donate to the organization.  

Each year we hold a Memorial Day Picnic which is open to all residents of Deep Creek. We are currently planning an outing to a Stone Crab baseball game, a Deep Creek Community Day in November, and a Christmas season event. We hold an annual meeting each November for the election of board members, to learn about our community from a local speaker and an opportunity to meet and greet each other. Upcoming events are can be found in our monthly newsletter and on our website.
 
We are always looking for volunteers who want to be active in their community.  Do you like gardening? Consider joining the Deep Creek Garden Club. Do you walk or bike around the section of Deep Creek where you live? Our Neighborhood Watch Group would love to have your help.  You are invited to join us the first Tuesday of each month at the Section 23 office at 7:00 pm to attend our board meetings. We would love to meet you!  We want to stress again that although we meet at Section 23, the Civic Association is a separate organization.

Remember, you must sign up to become a member of the Civic Association. An application has been provided for you on the reverse side of this letter. Be sure to include birthdays and anniversaries as we announce these in our newsletter.   With your $14 yearly membership dues you receive our monthly newsletter Deep Creek News, admission to member events and a free Deep Creek license plate and a feeling of community neighborliness!
