Fall 2026 Membership Meeting – 21 September

OHECA has scheduled a board and membership meeting on Monday, September 21 in Meeting Room 1 of the Pohick library. Our guest speaker is Springfield Supervisor Pat Herrity. The board meeting is scheduled from 6:30pm to 7:00pm. The membership meeting will commence at 7:00pm.

OHECA invited Supervisor Herrity to address his recent visits to Material Recovery Facilities (MRF) in Elkridge, MD and Manassas, where he learned how recyclables you put at your curbs are sorted and their disposition. Based on advancements made at the MRFs in recent years, Herrity is proposing the return to single stream glass recycling, i.e., putting glass in your bins once again. 

We ask that your initial questions stay on the core recycling topic. Once those questions are exhausted, Supervisor Herrity will accept questions and comments you have on any topic, but hopefully on issues most relevant to Orange Hunt Estates.

Annual Spring Yard Sale – May 16th

The pleasant spring weather can stimulate that desire to declutter after our cold winter season. Well, OHECA is again sponsoring our Spring Yard Sale Event on Saturday, May 16 for the perfect time to convert those clutters into some cash. OHECA plans this activity every Spring with our partner, Winston-Knolls Civic Association. OHECA will locate yard sale signs the day before and the day of the event around the area to alert people driving by our community, as well as notices on social media and signage that reaches the community.

The following items can be shredded; office paper (any color), manila folders, staples, paper clips, rubber bands, binder clips, hanging file folders, receipts, envelopes, and of course paper, paper and more paper. The following items are NOT accepted for shredding; cell phones, batteries of any kind, 3-ring binders, garbage of any kind, newspapers, credit cards, CDs, cardboard, magazines, x-rays and hardcover books.
