Hunting Country Association Value

As you undoubtedly know by now, Tryon's Hunting Country is a very, very special place.  Those of us who live here have our spirits lifted daily by views of carefully tended rolling pasturelands and the misted Blue Ridge Mountains beyond, and the pleasure of living in such beauty that never abates.  We have much in common: whether we came originally for horses, the trail system and the equestrian life offered here, or are simply nature enthusiasts, all of us appreciate the rare experience of living in an area where the land still dominates.

Hunting Country! Property Owners Association is an Organization (founded in 1984) to which residents of Hunting Country belong, and which works in their behalf to preserve Hunting Country for current and future residents.  We work to maintain the beauty of this area.

We have a volunteer Board made up of Hunting Country residents.  We sponsor events, hold open bi-monthly meetings at which members are invited to share their interests and concerns, publish a newsletter which updates residents on matters affecting our area, represent Hunting Country at zoning hearings or city or county venues considering actions which may affect our interests, maintain a legal Defense Fund, and in other ways serve the common good of Hunting Country property owners.

This is a necessary and important function, for Hunting Country is no accident; it is the result of decades of commitment to preservation and smart planning.  The Association had 2 acre zoning passed in the 90's and 5 acre zoning several years after that.  We supported the Polk county 7 acre zoning.  We have helped protect major properties by keeping them from being divided.  

The Association purchased a 2 acre parcel of land that sits at our entrance next to the old Block House.  That land is now under easement and preserved forever against development.  

Thats why, we invite you to join your Hunting Country Neighbors as a Member of Hunting Country!

Membership includes:  1) Regular Newsletters with timely updates on matters of importance related to Hunting Country.  2) Representation before government and other groups considering actions which the HC! Board feels will have an impact on you and your fellow residents.  3) Membership gives us strength in numbers.  If there is an issue that arises, we are totally prepared to meet it head on.   4) An annual fall membership picnic  5)  October annual meeting, and open bi-monthly meetings of the HC!.

Membership is simple.  Mail your check for thirty-eight dollars to Hunting Country!, P.O. Box 896, Tryon, NC 28782.  We'll do the rest!

Our Association is a strong, current, vigil and here for Hunting Country.
