We work with city representatives and community organizations such as the District 10 Leadership Coalition to ensure our neighborhood is kept abreast of City of San Jose and Santa Clara County news or actions potentially affecting us. We also work with city officials to sponsor beautification, public safety, and other events benefiting our neighborhood.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Neighborhood Garage Sale 2025
Back by popular demand, our Orchard Creek Team will be working to bring back our own Orchard Creek Multi-Family Garage Sale Weekend. We plan to hold it in May and will be sending out details after the first of the year.
Dumpster Day 2025
We'll be planning the Dumpster Day Event the week after the neighborhood wide Garage Day Sale.
Past Activites in 2024
Community Emergency Response Information
We had an excellent presentation from Lee Steckmest who gave out important information to help us to understand how important it is to be prepared and different approaches to get there. We learned that it begins with neighbors helping neighbors and we hope to repeat this informative talk again in the future. The City of San Jose supported this event by donating seven Emergency Backpacks that were raffled off to the attendees.
DUMPSTER DAY EVENT
For the second year, Orchard Creek worked with the Mayor, Matt Mahan's office, TogetherSJ, and our own District 10 Councilman, Arjun Batra, to put together another successful Dumpster Day for our Orchard Creek neighbors! This is a huge favorite of our residents and we hope to sponsor another one in 2025!
ORCHARD CREEK ENTRANCE CLEAN UP
The same weekend we held the Dumpster Day event, a hard-working group of your neighbors picked up weed whackers, shovels, rakes and bins to clear debris and clean up our sadly dilapidated entrance at McIntosh Drive! The TogetherSJ project in the mayor’s office also helped us out by purchasing a mountain of mulch which we gladly spread over the entire area. Thank you, OC neighbors!!!
