There are several groups that work together to support our Brookhaven neighborhood. (Please note that dues and fiscal years differ.) Brookhaven Club Neighborhood Association The BCNA is the overall organization for neighborhood activities in the area bounded by Peachtree Road on the south, Peachtree Dunwoody Road on the west, Windsor Parkway and Wimberly on the north, and Osborne Road on the east. The Club Forest area has its own neighborhood association (see below). Annual dues for BCNA are $50 ($35 for senior citizens). The annual dues help pay for newsletters, the directory, this web site, zoning issues, the Street Party, the New Neighbor Party, public area landscape maintenance, traffic and any other issues that affect the neighborhood that are of a concern to the BCNA. The fiscal year is January 1 to December 31. Members are identified with a current year sticker on their mailbox. Historic Brookhaven Foundation In 1986 part of our neighborhood was designated the "Brookhaven Historic District" in the National Register of Historic Places. The Historic Brookhaven Foundation was started in 1991 as a vehicle for funding of the Brookhaven Guidepost Project. (Click here to visit the National Park Service's web page regarding the Brookhaven Historic District.) Historic Brookhaven is now soliciting contributions for a landscape beautification program for public areas in the neighborhood and for the maintenance of the guideposts. Donations to Historic Brookhaven are tax deductible as allowed by law. The Historic Brookhaven Foundation is a non-profit organization set up in 1991 to allow neighbors to make tax-deductible donations to the Brookhaven Guidepost Project. It is administered in conjunction with the BCNA’s Beautification Committee. Eight Guideposts were installed at entrances to our neighborhood. Historic Brookhaven now asks neighbors to consider making gifts for beautification efforts around Brookhaven. Projects have included plantings around the Guideposts and in public areas like the Davidson Lakehaven Triangle, Club Drive and Davidson triangle, and the ends of Vermont Park. Efforts also include maintenance of public areas that are not well kept by the city and county, grass cutting, weeding, trimming, etc. The Historic Brookhaven Foundation arranged the installation of a time capsule during the 1998 Street Party. It is to be opened in 50 years and includes items representative of our time as chosen by neighborhood children. The time capsule is in the Lakehaven/Davidson triangle and is marked with a brass marker. The Beautification Committee has also created a Gardens of Memories throughout Brookhaven designed to encourage a moment of pause and contemplation. Benches and special landscaping have been placed in these Gardens in honor and in memory of neighbors, family, and loved ones. They are:
The Memorial Benches and plaques are as follows:
