THE HOCC
The Historic Overlook Community Club, a not-for-profit corporation that
represents approximately 500 households, sponsors many events and neighborhood
activities throughout the year.
The Club's mission
has broadened considerably over the years. Our concerns include traffic,
noise, development and other issues, which impact the security, value
and comfort of our homes and the overall quality of life in our neighborhood.
Advocacy
The Overlook Community Club is proud to claim representation
on Waterbury's Neighborhood Council -- delegates from each of Waterbury's
neighborhoods working together for the betterment of all of the City's
neighborhhods.
Communication
The HOCC Newsletter is produced by a neighborhood
volunteer and distributed to the entire community periodically throughout
the year.
Occasionally, a special urgent bulletin is sent out
to keep the community informed about urgent issues, special meetings,
etc... Most of our modest budget each year goes to cover the costs of
printing and mailing.
The HOCC Website is published and updated by a neighborhood
volunteer.
Informational Meetings on key issues are sponsored by the Club as the
need arises.
Social Events
Join us for our Progressive Dinners. These are
great opportunities to meet your Overlook neighbors.
Each year, shortly after Thanksgiving, club members
and residents gather on Columbia Boulevard for the Annual Tree Lighting
.It's 90 minutes of caroling, refreshments and fun as we usher in the
holiday season.
Our Neighborhood is Kid Friendly
The Overlook Sports Association annually provides
hundreds of neighborhood youngsters the opportunity to participate in
organized league play in soccer, basketball and baseball.
HOCC Governance
The Club's by-laws provide for governance by a
Board of Directors that is elected by dues-paying members in good-standing
at the Annual Membership Meeting.
HOCC Membership
Your dues are very important. Since postage and printing
are major expense items, our ability to communicate is directly related
to the number of people who support the work of the Club by paying their
dues. So, please help the HOCC help you.
Annual dues are $20
per household. Additional donations are greatly appreciated. All donations
are tax deductible to the extent provided by law. Please make checks payable
to HOCC and mail today to:
