Q: What is Dunwoody North Civic Association (DNCA)?
As the last two words imply, we are a civic association. However, contrary to the “Dunwoody North” part, the organization welcomes all residents living on Tilly Mill Road and all subdivisions in Dunwoody south of Peeler. For more information such as maps, subdivisions, and history of the DNCA, please explore our website including our "About" page, "Neighborhood History" and our "Location & Maps" page.
Q: Why should I support DNCA?
Your time and dues help improve your neighborhood. For a list of some of DNCA’s worthwhile activities, see What we Do. One board member summed it up when he said he knew his dues were well spent after DNCA fed 25 police officers a three-course lunch for less than $50 thanks to discounts from restaurants and desserts from members.
Q: How can I support DNCA?
Dues are necessary to operate but volunteers are the only way DNCA can exist. To find out more about becoming involved with anything from recycling to Yard of the Month or serving as a board member, contact any of our board members
