Welcome to Hethwood
The Hethwood Foundation is the first master planned community developed by HHHunt in 1971. The Hethwood community is comprised of 459 houses and townhouses on 316 wooded acres and houses 25% of Blacksburg's residents. Five neighborhoods make up the Hethwood Community.
The Hethwood Foundation is an organization developed for the administration of the Hethwood Community. Our team works to ensure the community and it's amenities are well maintained. The Hethwood Foundation offers a variety of amenities which include three sand volleyball courts, eight tennis courts, three basketball courts, two swimming pools, two community centers, fitness center, five miles of bike/jogging trails with exercise stations, seven playgrounds, pond/gazebo/picnic area and softball area. The Hethwood Foundation also provides many social events for the residents and publishes a monthly newsletter, The Hethwood Hoorah. Please see our Amenities Page for more details.

News from the Director
Hello Everyone!! Its so hard to believe that its already May and that summer is upon us. There are so many important things going on this month, so I wanted to make sure that every residence in Hethwood receives a copy of the Hoorah. I hope that everyone is ready and excited to get the summer started.
The first important thing going on this month is annual dues payments are due on May 1st in the amount of $291.05. If dues are collected after May 10th a late fee will be as- sessed. Your dues notice should have included an envelope and dues coupon that are specific to your property; both of which should be returned with your payment in order to ensure proper credit to your account. This year is the first year with options to pay your annual dues via eCheck or Credit Card, with options for a one time or recurring payment. If you have questions, please call CFM at 703-941-0818 and ask for the Community Services Dept. or email Rosa Maradiaga at rmaradiaga@cfmmanagement.com. Please give us your feedback.
This is also a month when folks are weeding yards, pressure washing siding, repairing fences that may be damaged or in disrepair, cleaning and staining steps, decks, fences and porches. While the warm weather brings us those beautiful May flowers, it also brings some less than desirable vegetation and overgrowth. If you have foliage that is located on the edge of your lot please keep it trimmed so that you do not encroach your neighbors property, as well as common areas of our neighborhood trail systems. Residents want their homes and neighborhoods to look great and sometimes it is the little things, such as yard and fence maintenance, that truly set neighborhoods apart from all of the rest. The Hethwood staff routinely completes community inspections in an effort to help maintain curb appeal and overall property values in the beautiful community of Hethwood!! This is a wonderful community, lets all work together to keep it looking great!
May is the time of year that you will begin seeing summer staff out at the pools getting them ready for you and your family to take a dip and cool off all summer long. The schedule for both pools is as follows: Weather permitting, the Briarwood pool will be ready for opening the weekend of May 19 and 20 and then open full time Friday, May 25. The Huntsman pool is moving right along with renovations and will be ready to open Friday, May 25, just in time for MCPS closing. Our renovations include a newly plastered Huntsman pool. Both pools will now have two separate access points for those with disabilities, including a brand new handicap accessible lift and ADA compliant steps with railings into the pool. The Hethwood Foundation Board implemented changes in the pool guest policies, so please read #4 under Swimming Pool Rules and Regulations. Please note that the pool guest fee was set at $4.00 to help offset increasing cost. We will strive to keep our amenities available to residents while balancing the need to manage our facilities in a fiscally responsible manner. If there is bad weather or low swimmer count, we may re-evaluate the schedules at one or both pools. In the event of inclement weather please feel free to contact the Hethwood Office or the pool phones for any changes in the schedules.
Please take advantage of all the great things that Hethwood will be offering this summer, whether it be swim lessons or movies at the pool. Enjoy the outdoors this summer and all the wonderful amenities that you have at your disposal, as a Hethwood resident. If you have any questions, comments or concerns about any of the amenities or programs that the Hethwood Foundation has to offer please feel free to give us a call and I will be happy to speak with you. Summer is a great time to get up, get out and get active. I hope to meet many of you at the pool, on the trails or at a social event.
Sincerely,
Joshua B. Sharitz
