President’s Letter

  • July 2025
  • BY COLE PEACOCK, WCCA BOARD PRESIDENT

Greetings WC Community and Neighbors,

As the school year comes to a close and summer begins, we want to wish all our families a safe, joyful, and relaxing break. Please keep an extra eye out for children playing outside, riding bikes, and enjoying the longer days—let’s all do our part to keep our neighborhood safe for them.

This past year has been another successful one for our civic association, thanks to the continued support and participation from our members. From our annual Charity Golf Tournament to the Fall Fest to the Celebrity Chili Cook-Off and the festive Christmas Parade, your involvement has helped make these events meaningful and memorable for our community.

Our monthly board meetings are now on summer recess and will resume in September. However, our efforts continue. We are currently working with the county to enhance the medians throughout the neighborhood—a beautification effort that will benefit all residents. Depending on funding, we may need to initiate a capital campaign if we don’t see increased participation in civic association dues. If you haven’t yet renewed or joined, now is a great time to contribute to the WCCA membership campaign and help shape the future of our community.

You can visit the WCCA website at http://www.whiskeycreeknews.net to learn more about the membership dues, how the funds are allocated as well as review deed restrictions, board meeting minutes, and much more about the community. The membership campaign https://whiskeycreeknews.net/membership/ strives for 100 percent participation. Currently, membership stands at approximately 30 percent, and we are making daily progress. The membership fee of $125 will be allocated to various community needs.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to both new and returning members for your membership and dedication to our community, providing general community protection, and enhancing our overall community. Thank you for your support!

Our final meeting of the season, which was our annual meeting, was heavily attended, maybe because of the Tidewater Landscape presentation for the medians, or because the club provided good eats and drinks for the party afterward. The board proudly voted to support three meaningful initiatives:

The Girl Scout Bench Project, which promotes environmental stewardship and public safety at selected bus stops for students in our community.

The Pace Center for Girls, selected as a beneficiary of our next Charity Golf Tournament.

• Continued efforts to work with Tidewater Landscaping, the county, and the community to enhance the medians on Whiskey Creek Drive.

If you haven’t visited the country club recently, come by and check out our new menu items and drink specials! We’ve also updated the décor and have exciting news about the brick porch addition, not to mention summer golf specials and events. Whether you’re looking for a relaxed and affordable happy hour, delicious brunches and dinners, or a place to socialize and unwind, the club is a fantastic spot to enjoy time with friends and neighbors.

Whiskey Creek continues to be a popular destination for residents of all walks of life, each contributing to the rich tapestry of our community. Whether you’re here to settle down, unwind, or raise a family, your presence is vital to our collective vision.

The WCCA Board is grateful for the opportunity to give back to this amazing community, and we thank you for making that possible.

Wishing you and your family a safe and happy summer!
