Spring Egg Hunt                                          

Date TBD

3pm @ Biltmore Park Swim Club

At Spring time each year we hide hundreds of eggs and gather to watch our little ones fill their baskets!  We’ll have entertainment for the kids, balloons and fun for everyone.  Grab a basket and, well, you know, HOP on by!  P.S.  The Bunny will have already placed the eggs and the race will be on promptly at 3:00!

We need some help with the Egg Hunt, a popular event for Biltmore Park youngsters.  The Easter Bunny can’t do it alone!  Please contact the Social Committee if you are interested.   Remember, our kids are counting on you!

FALL

The perfect motivation for spring and fall cleaning!  Just tie a balloon to your mailbox if you have items to sell and we’ll bring you the buyers to turn your trash to treasure.  We advertise in local papers and we’ll even arrange for charitable organizations to pick up the odds & ends that don’t sell.  The driver will be able to provide a tax-deductible receipt for any donations.  Please email the Yard Sale Coordinator for more information and about the timing for the charitable pickup.

Biltmore Park & Emma Adopt-a-Community Partnership

Ongoing throughout the year

Since 2002, Biltmore Park has worked with Emma, a West Asheville community comprised of the most diverse population in Buncombe County.  Over the years we have held yard sales, school supplies drives, “adopt-a-star holiday tree”, and other events to benefit the Emma Community Resource Center. If you would like to help with this program or if you have other ideas for Biltmore Park residents to share our personal and community assets with other service organizations, please contact the Social Committee.
