Your Membership Makes a Difference
Less than half of Orange Hunt households currently support OHECA through annual membership dues. Yet those dues help maintain our neighborhood, including the landscaped medians, entrances, and common areas that contribute to Orange Hunt’s appearance and help protect property values.
For just $35 a year, you can help keep Orange Hunt a well-maintained, connected, and desirable place to live.
Your membership helps maintain neighborhood common areas, publish neighborhood information, and advocate for Orange Hunt.
What does your membership support?
OHECA is a volunteer-run civic association. Membership dues provide the funding that allows your neighbors to continue this vital work.
Maintain our neighborhood
OHECA maintains common areas, medians, entrances, and other neighborhood grounds, including areas along Huntsman Boulevard and Sydenstricker Road.
Keep our roadsides looking good
We maintain areas that would otherwise receive limited mowing and maintenance from the county or state. We also organize Adopt-A-Highway litter pickups along Huntsman Boulevard.
Bring neighbors together
We organize community activities such as the bi-annual Community Yard Sales, yard contests, holiday decorating contests, and other events that help neighbors connect.
Keep neighbors connected
We publish the annual Orange Book community directory and quarterly newsletters with neighborhood information, local businesses, services, and community news.
Advocate for Orange Hunt
OHECA works with local and state officials on issues that affect our neighborhood, including road safety, pedestrian safety, and sidewalk maintenance.
Support our community
OHECA's website, Facebook group, newsletters, and community activities give residents ways to stay informed, meet neighbors, and participate in the life of Orange Hunt.
Your $35 at work
Membership dues fund the everyday costs of maintaining our community. That includes mowing and trimming neighborhood common areas from April through October, maintaining landscaping and entrance plantings, and caring for the median strips on Huntsman Boulevard and Sydenstricker Road. Dues also help maintain the grassy triangle at the intersection of Sydenstricker Road and Field Master Drive, the open park parcel on Reservation Drive, and other areas maintained by OHECA.
Membership also covers the basics
Dues pay for printing and mailing newsletters and membership materials, producing the Orange Book, liability insurance, electricity for the Huntsman Boulevard entrance sign, and other supplies needed to operate the association.
Additional contributions
Residents can also make additional donations to support tree maintenance, landscaping, special activities, and other community needs.
What you need to know
One membership per household
Residents and owners of homes in Orange Hunt Estates are members of OHECA under the association's governing documents. One membership applies per household. A member in good standing has paid the annual dues and may vote and make motions at OHECA meetings. Members in good standing also receive the annual Orange Book community directory. All OHECA members can participate in OHECA sponsored programs and activities.
OHECA is not an HOA
OHECA is a civic association, not a homeowners association (HOA). OHECA does not collect or receive HOA dues, and OHECA membership is separate from membership in any townhome association. Residents and property owners remain subject to OHECA's bylaws and covenants regardless of whether annual dues have been paid. Dues must be current in order to vote at OHECA meetings.
Townhome residents
The Townes of Orange Hunt and Orange Hunt Square were developed as part of the broader Orange Hunt Estates community. OHECA maintains neighborhood areas that benefit these communities, including the median and grassy triangle at the Sydenstricker Road and Field Master Drive intersection. Townhome residents are welcome to join OHECA for community information and participation. Townhome memberships do not include voting rights. OHECA does not receive any portion of townhome association fees.
Help keep Orange Hunt strong
OHECA depends on neighbors who choose to support the community. Your $35 membership helps us continue the services, activities, and advocacy that benefit Orange Hunt.

Membership is only one way to help
OHECA is run entirely by volunteers—your neighbors who give their time to make Orange Hunt better. There are many ways to help, from supporting a single community event to serving on a committee. No special experience is required, and you do not need to make a major time commitment to make a difference.
