Coming Soon
In partnership with Belmont Heights Community Association we co-host an Annual Egg Hunt where over 500+ children join in to search for 4000+ candy filled eggs on the Red Car Greenbelt.
Twice a month from Spring to Fall our neighbors gather together in a casual front yard setting to "Wine Down" from the busy week. While neighbors bring a beverage to share, AHIA provides a "Host Kit" to our generous host for opening up their home.
A long standing tradition, AHAI hosts an annual neighborhood picnic with ALL the fixings for a fantastic day outside; food, treats, games, vendors, door prizes, nieghbors and good old fashion FUN!
We secure the permit and shredding truck to assist neighbors in their Spring Cleaning and Document disposal. A popular annual event each Spring.
In partnership with Belmont Heights Community Association and Belmont Heights businesses, we co-host this event for 200+ children to enjoys carnival games and tick-or-treating fun on the Red Car Greenbelt.
In the Fall we work on planting parkway tress that are complimentary to the existing Magnolia trees in our neighborhood. The program is funded through a Port of Long Beach grant we secure. Our neighbors at the Conservation Corps partner with us on the planting the new young trees. Interested in getting a new tree in your parkway?
Our signature event and community favorite. Every year on the Friday after Thanksgiving, our Community gathers at the Colorado Lagoon for the annual countdown to light the trees. Complete with Carolers. Hot Coco, Treats and Santa!
