Our 2nd Annual Roadside clean up is April 24th at 1pm – 230pm This will be followed by our neighborhood picnic. Come out and meet your neighbors. This is a fun way to pitch in to help our Lake Whippoorwill Hart Rural Settlement and get to know your neighbors.
Meet at the intersection of Kirby Smith and Tyson/Broleman to pick up supplies, say hello, or join a team.
The Annual WHCA Spring Picnic will be held on April 24 from 3-5pm
on the Reyes Property at the corner of Kirby Smith and Broleman Rd.
This will be preceded by a Roadside Cleanup from 1-2:30
It is time for a community gathering!! Participants will be asked to bring their own chairs and a side dish. This year we will cater the meat so we will need a fairly accurate head count,
Bring your own beverages.

A beautiful day greeted us at this year’s parade. The grand prize winner was a clever contraption, put together by the LESSNE family who entered a Rube Goldberg looking “Snow Factory On Wheels,” which burped bubbles/ snow / as the golf cart moved along. (Pictures will be added as they become available.) Thanks to all who made this a success – Steve and Rhonda provided the great BBQ and Bubba drove the hay wagon provided by Yates.
Eitorial error:The Lessne family of Brolemen Road won the grand prize.
Sometime last year, we were told that a new sewer main, from which we derived no benefit, would invade our rural settlement, ./ In short time, the Commissioners had an earful and (apparently) from our intense email campaign, the decision was changed!!!

As president of the Lake Whippoorwill – Hart Community Association from 2015 until 2019. Caroline Randall’s tireless efforts benefited our community on countless issues. While our rural settlement attempted to manage the incredible growth around us, Caroline kept a watchful eye on issues that would impact our community. Her presence and voiced concerns were considered with noticeable changes to the impact of growth on our rural settlement.
Caroline gave selflessly of her time and expertise, attending countless county and city meetings, in efforts to protect our precious Rural Settlement from encroaching development. Her tireless commitment to our cause will have a lifetime effect on the future of our community.
Sadly, she has moved to another area. We shall miss her greatly!
The WHCA board of directors and all its residents, applaud and thank Caroline for her labors of courage and commitment to our community.
5/20/21 We have been advised that this cost may have dramatically changed in the past few months. One new resident said he was quoted $7,000 and another over $6,000!!
We will post changes when the facts are clear.

If you are interested in hooking up to city water, here is the information you need: The department at OUC is Developmental Services and the person is Linda Julio (407) 236-9651. . Anyway, the hookup, assuming you use a 5/8 inch meter (which everyone, so far, has done), to the OUC side is about $3,000 and then you have to pay a plumber to hook it to your house. 1 1/4″ (or 1 1/2″) line to the house (if it’s a long way), seems to do the trick – but ask your plumber. Residents who have hooked up seem to be pleased.
