Make sure you don't lose access to our neighborhood amenities by paying your 2026 dues. The tennis court code will be changed on April 5, and pool fobs will be deactivated for all members who are not current.

Please submit payment via the Heritage website.

If you have questions or would like to set up a payment plan to submit your 2026 dues in installments, email MVW treasurer Lanny Gilbert, at mvwtreasurer@gmail.com.

Saturday, March 28, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Vernon Woods Drive  cul-de-sac near the swimming pool

Start cleaning out those drawers, garages, and basements now because our neighborhood "shred and dumpster day" is back! 

Please follow these guidelines: 

• Leave room for all neighbors by limiting your dumpster haul to one truck or carload only.

• Please break down—as much as possible—any furniture or other bulky items.

• Space in the dumpster is available on a first-come basis beginning at 10 a.m. Once the dumpster is full, additional items cannot be dropped off.

• Text Luke at 770-910-2775 if you need help loading or transporting your items.

Sorry, we are NOT accepting the following items this year:

• Charity donations : the Goodwill at Abernathy and Roswell roads accepts donations every day until 8 p.m.

• Electronics (such as TVs, computer monitors, tablets):  stay tuned for an upcoming Sandy Springs Education Force electronics recycling event.

• Paint, wood stain: you can schedule a residential pickup with Atlanta Paint Disposal.

• Large appliances (such as dishwashers, washing machines)

THANK YOU to Matt LaMarsh, with Engel & Völkers Atlanta, for sponsoring the shredding truck and to Luke Clark, with Southern Seal Insulation, who has teamed up with the Firebrand Roofing team to provide the dumpster. Reach out to Matt or Luke for any future real estate or home renovation needs! 

Sunday, March 29, at 11:30 a.m. at Mount Vernon Presbyterian Church

We weren’t able to find a willing volunteer to host our neighborhood egg hunt, but our friends at Mount Vernon Presbyterian Church have generously invited us to hop across the street and join theirs! The festivities will take place in the grassy courtyard in front of the Lower School main entrance (next to the Fellowship Hall/school cafeteria). There will be a designated area for little bunnies and a more challenging hunt for the big kids,  so all are invited! Bring your basket, and we’ll see you there!

This year, we’re spreading some Mount Vernon Woods love to the community helpers who serve us, and we’re starting with the Sandy Springs branch of the Fulton County Library System.

We will be dropping off dessert for the librarians to enjoy after their staff meeting on Thursday, April 16.

If you love the library—or baking!—will you help us by contributing a dessert? Homemade, store-bought, cookies, cakes, pies, brownies, fruit—any contribution is appreciated. Let us know you’ll donate a baked good by signing up here.

Desserts can be dropped off ahead of time at Holly Ducan’s house, or you are invited to join the delivery crew. Details are on the sign-up sheet. Thanks for joining our neighborhood’s efforts to be good neighbors!

Did you know that our neighborhood courts are home to ALTA teams? And right now, they are looking for more neighbors to join the fun. If you’d like to give it a try, you are invited to drop in during their practices on Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings, or email Steve or Alexander.

Join us on Saturday, May 2, from 9 a.m. to noon for our annual Community Clean-Up Day. This volunteer effort helps maintain and improve the amenities that enhance our property values—and it’s a great way to meet your neighbors.

This year’s volunteers will also get a first look at the pool’s off-season updates!

More details coming in April, but please plan for at least one member of your household to participate if possible.

Need help with jobs like babysitting, yard work, or dog walking? We now have a directory of neighbors (and neighborhood kids!) you can reach out to for a variety of household tasks.
