Archer Heights Civic Association
Founded in 1938, Archer Heights Civic Association (AHCA) is the oldest active neighborhood organization in Southwest Chicago, serving the Archer Heights community.[1]
1968[edit]
In 1968, AHCA had meetings with local aldermen and the Chicago Park District Superintendent to present a list of improvements needed at Archer Park, including a field house. The Archer Park field house eventually opened in 1970.[2]
1985[edit]
Originally formed as a homeowner's association, AHCA also functions as a community watchdog, for example, pressuring for enforcement of zoning laws.
Current activities by AHCA[edit]
AHCA hosts a costume party for children every Halloween and an Easter egg hunt every spring.[4]
