Our Mission
The ACA is devoted to representing each of you and being your voice on a civic level on community issues. We promote teamwork, communication, and transparency as we work to make a positive contribution as the organization representing our community. Our foundation is based around maintaining, enhancing, and protecting the value of our property as well as promoting community comradery. The ACA works in conjunction with Arden Beaches, Inc. (ABI) in the management and operations of Arden's private beach and park properties. We are focused on increasing homeowner participation by creating structure where residents feel valued and a part of the team. Join us in strengthening our community. We can't do any of this without you!
How We Started

MAKE A DONATION TO THE ACA!
DID YOU KNOW???
...that when you make a donation to the ACA, you become a member for the current calendar year? It's true! ACA membership is voluntary and operates solely through your generous donations. We NEED your donations to accomplish our mission as a civic servant to YOU and your family here in Arden. Your donations enable us to upkeep our community building (Town Hall), and give you the ability to rent the hall for your personal functions. Donations so enable us to hold community events that bring our residents together in comradery, as well as provide AACo police patrols through our Neighborhood Watch Program.
Donations also help to support our efforts in representing YOU in development and zoning matters surrounding our community, infrastructure needs with the County Road Operations Division, and in environmental and waterway matters affecting our treasured Severn River. Be sure to be part of these important matters and consider volunteering as well! WE NEED YOU in order to SUPPORT YOU!
