MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
The civic association is in need of volunteers – we have several officers that have held the same position for over 10 years and we are in need of “young/new blood”. The board is seeking new volunteers in order to turn over their role to someone new. The board meets approximately 4/5 times a year during September through May.  Some of the jobs only take a total of 4/5 hours for the total year. Please contact me by e-mail or call at 703-569-2368 to learn more about the board and the role you could fill as a volunteer for the community, No prior experience is necessary.
