Hill Country Retreat’s Clay Hadick Named Outstanding Homeowner Leader

Each year, the Community Associations Institute selects Outstanding Community Leaders from a field of more than 2 million homeowner volunteers serving on their community’s Board or committees. We’re proud to announce Clay Hadick, a Board member at Hill Country Retreat in San Antonio, as one of this year’s recipients.

Nominated by their community association peers, colleagues and community managers, award recipients exemplify service to their communities. CAI received more than 150 nominations for this year’s recognition. Clay has served on the Hill Country Retreat Board of Directors, where he serves as vice president, for more than two years and has played an integral part in ensuring the community’s continued success.

During Clay’s time on the Board, the community’s reserve fund increased from $480,000 to $1.2 million and the community received back-to-back honors as recipient and runner-up of the Community of the Year award from the San Antonio Chapter of the Community Associations Institute. In addition to serving on the Board, Clay is also active as a resident in the community, participating in a number of community clubs, including Veterans, Brew Crew, men’s softball and pickleball.

Outside of his role on the Board, Clay co-founded and served as chair of the NW 151 Annexation Group, which advocated for the residents of the Alamo Ranch Property Owners Association to vote to be annexed into the city of San Antonio or to remain as unincorporated Bexar County. This effort ultimately saved homeowners more than $1,000 annually in average city taxes.

“A collaborative spirit and shared vision are critical to developing a successful partnership between CCMC and the Boards we serve,” said Neil Bresnahan, Hill Country Retreat community manager. “Clay represents these values to the highest degree. His commitment to our community and to ensuring we maintain the best quality of life possible for our residents has helped position us for continued success now and in the future. I am grateful for his service to Hill Country Retreat and excited for him to receive much-deserved recognition on a national level.”
