Dear  New Neighbor:

On behalf of the Whitehall Welcome Committee and the Whitehall Homeowner’s Association, welcome to our wonderful community. We are a neighborhood who cares about the wellbeing of each other.

Whitehall was founded in 1976 and today we find a number of our previous neighbors who left for various reasons are returning. This speaks volumes about our neighborhood culture.

We hope you will become an involved resident and volunteer for one of our committees so you can get to know us and help us keep our community strong.

This page is full of helpful information and will assist you greatly in transitioning into your new home and environment. Please ensure each member of your household becomes familiar with our rules and regulations that guarantee every person’s enjoyment while living in Whitehall.
