Dear Neighbors,
Please join us on Thursday, May 31 from 7 PM to 8 PM at Patrick Henry
Elementary School library to hear a brief presentation about the 2012
Arlington County Fair held here in our Arlington Heights neighborhood.
Following the presentation there will be an opportunity for residents to
ask questions and provide feedback. Speakers will include the Arlington
County Fair Board Chair, the Fair liaison from the Arlington county
government and a representative from the Arlington County Police Department.
I hope to see you on May 31!
Please join us at AHCA's annual picnic, Saturday afternoon, May 19, at Patrick Henry Elementary School, after the Henry Challenge.
AHCA's annual picnic is a FREE event and includes a moon bounce and face painting.
Simplicity Urgent Care once again helps AHCA to sponsor this fun event. Arlington County Police and Fire Departments
attend also.
We offer plenty of food for everyone -- burgers (including vegetarian) and dogs on the grill. Please bring a side
dish to share and a blanket to sit on. (If you aren't able to bring an
item to share, please don't let it stop you from attending.) We
need some people to assist with the various aspects of putting on this
large event. If everyone helps a little, we can have a great event.
We need volunteers for these activities: shopping, setting
up, grilling, and cleaning up. If you are available and can help in
any of these capacities, we would greatly appreciate it! Please feel
free to respond to
Sara Snow (AHCA.Sara@gmail.com),
Jay Vennett (vennett3@verizon.net), or
Stacey Whyte (kandswhyte@gmail.com) with your volunteering preference.
So come on out, meet your neighbors and have some food and fun!!!
