Not So New Neighborhood Facebook Group Now has Messenger Chats!

Thu, 13 Nov 2025 20:01:17 GMT

The Hollin Hills Facebook group has been around for years and was recently revamped by neighbor, Bill Lipsky. The group is an online space for members to engage and get to know each other. As a reminder this group is not affiliated with the CAHH and is not an official communication channel for the CAHH (though we do occasionally post there to raise awareness about our events and need for volunteers). https://www.facebook.com/groups/33092441524

Additionally, residents of Hollin Hills have the benefit of a brand new Messenger Community, which is a live, instant messaging platform through the Messenger application. This Messenger Community includes a Main Chat and specialized chats for Recommendations (E.g., contractors, services, businesses), Commerce (E.g., buying and selling, giveaways), Events (E.g., shows, markets), and the Parks. Additionally, members can create and moderate their own private chat rooms: groups for walking buddies, knitters, even sourdough bakers—the sky’s the limit! https://www.messenger.com/cm/AbbmTUiOP3OtBVJa/?send_source=cm%3Acopy_invite_link
