Welcome to the community website for the Greater Westover area, which is made up of the following four Civic Associations:  Tara-Leeway Heights (TLH), Leeway Overlee (LO), Highland Park-Overlee Knolls (HPOK), and Westover Village (WV).  

This site is run and maintained by volunteers.  The hope and plan for this site is to list events, helpful information, news, stories, blog posts, and publish a digital (and paper) newsletter. It will be similar to Nextdoor, but with less posts about items for sale and lost pets.

Please feel free to be in touch with ideas or requests, or if you would like to help with this project (we are always looking for volunteers to add and submit any content related to the Greater Westover area. To sign up to help, please contact us).

To sign up to receive the digital newsletter, please complete this form.
