Ivy Bend HOA in Clarksville hosted its first-ever chili cook-off in October. Around 55 neighbors enjoyed the event, which included a bounce house, football, ice cream, a lemonade stand, and games like cornhole and horseshoes. Board president Josh Bedingfield described the community as close-knit and said the Board hosts events like this to build on that comradery.
“From an HOA perspective, we really just enjoy doing things for the residents when we can,” Bedingfield said.
