Welcome
Welcome to the official Dividing Creek Association website. Dividing Creek is a deep water creek off the Chesapeake Bay on the Northern Neck of Virginia. The Association is a group of nearly 200 members who share an interest in continuing our support of local natural history and getting together twice a year for our spring picnic and our fall oyster roast.
Mission Statement
To maintain the quality of the natural resources and to enhance and preserve the character of the area in the best interests of its residents, the property owners and the public.
Our Purpose
The commercialization of the Hughlett Point area is what brought the Dividing Creek Association into being. Through the efforts of the Dividing Association and the Virginia Department of Conservation, Division of Natural Heritage the Hughlett Point Preserve was established. The preserve is now under the care of the Division of Natural Heritage and is one of four Natural Area Preserves (NAP) in our area. The Dividing Creek Association is vitally interested in supporting the Hughlett Point Preserve and surrounding natural areas in preserving our natural heritage.
