Orchard Ridge Neighborhood Association Established in 1952
Click to enter Neighbor-to-Neighbor
Many people think catching up with neighbors over the back fence is pure nostalgia. But in Orchard Ridge, it's a reality. Whether it's a real fence or a virtual one, Orchard Ridge residents stay in touch with one another.
Orchard Ridge is a wonderful venue to learn about everything from sightings of hawks, deer and foxes; to recommendations for handymen and other business people; to the occasional offer of sporting event tickets or items that are no longer needed (or a request for items
you may want).
