ABOUT THE ASSOCIATION

The Mirrormont Community Association is staffed by dedicated resident volunteers. It is our aim to act as a voice for residents and assist them in any way possible as an organized group in constant contact with the governing bodies around us. We are involved in ongoing discussions with King County. The MCA has also acted as a liaison to the local water company. Most important, the MCA serves as a focal point of action should an emergency or disaster occur in our neighborhood.

We also sponsor numerous community-wide activities including:

Halloween Party
In late October, with a chill in the air and leaves starting to cover lawns, the MCA is ready to get ghostly and ghoulish with the kids. Nothing too scary, just lots of fun, games, prizes, treats and a chance to show off those fabulous costumes.

Easter Egg Hunt
The Easter Bunny never misses a chance to visit Mirrormont and always leaves plenty of goodies in his wake. Show up early with a sturdy basket and your eyes peeled!

Adult Socials
A great way to meet neighbors old and new. Past events have included a St. Patrick’s Day party with plenty of ‘green’ on hand and a lovely Wine Social so guests can share a bottle of their favorite vino. Snack on hors d’oeuvres, and schnooze. Top it off with a festive Margarita party on a summer evening.

Spring Clean-up
You know how rejuvenating it is to declutter and freshen up the look and feel of your home each spring. What can you do with all the unwanted stuff the trash man won’t or can’t take? Spring clean-up to the rescue! Bring your sad and unused muddle to this event and, presto, it’s off your hands. MCA will even pick it up at your house, if you need the service. You don’t need to look at your mess or your neighbor’s any longer.

Adopt-a-Road
As a part of the Spring Clean-up, neighbors can sign up for their own road, or any other Mirrormont road, and clear it of litter. King county provides safety gear, bags, and pick-up service. Safety vests are provided by the Department of Corrections!

Website
Take advantage of up-to-the-minute information on the Mirrormont website. This site keeps you apprised of neighborhood wildlife sights, upcoming events, past newsletters, membership, and so much more.

Newsletter
Make yourself a latte or a cup of tea and relax with the news and stories of your own neighborhood. Or, maybe you have topics of interest you would like to share. If so, submissions are most welcome and the newsletter editor will enjoy hearing from you.

Mirrormont Park
Easily the most serious and fabulous undertaking by the MCA do date, Mirrormont now has a beautiful park in the meadow behind the Country Club. Many hours of hard work have been put into this project already and many more are ahead. Take a stroll through our new park – the crown jewel in what is already a gem of a neighborhood.
