The Ballentine Civic Association was formed to help build and support the Ballentine Community. We work hard to keep our community members informed and aware of all events, changes and updates that are happening in our area. We partner with local businesses to help grow and build their services. Our partners are what make our community great and strive to keep those connections strong. To become a part of this great community head over to our Join Us page and fill out the membership form.
The Heritage at Lowman: Keep Lowman Home Barn Open
To support the communities on Johnson Marina Road, please sign the petition "The Heritage at Lowman: Keep Lowman Home Barn Open". There will be more information on this matter soon but it is important that this road remain open to help the traffic flow from the neighborhoods on Johnson Marina Road.
Thank you.
Our goal is to reach 2,500 signatures and we need more support. You can read more and sign the petition here:
