October - December 2008
Fall is here, and what a beautiful time of year! Some of our clubs have taken a summer break, so it will be nice to reconnect with old neighbors & friends as we get back into the swing of things
CALENDAR OF EVENTS
Post these calendars on your fridge for easy reference. Come out, meet your neighbors, and get involved! These clubs and committees would love to see YOU to get involved. And on behalf of the entire Recreation Committee, I invite you ALL to come out to our events!
NAOMI PROJECT
This is a mentor program that seeks moms with heart! Would you welcome the opportunity to make a difference in the life of a pregnant woman? Do you have what it takes to help other women plan for healthy pregnancies and stable futures? Do you have ~ 4 hours each month to share? Visit their website at www.naomiproject.org. To volunteer contact Daventry Community Member Monique Dignan at (703) 569-0267.

ADULT PARTY
What a fantastic party! I was so proud of our community when I saw everyone working together to make this event so special. The pot luck food was delicious! A special thanks to the Garden Club girls who took charge of the decorating, Janet McKinnon, Janet Quinn, Dru Kewitt. And a special thanks to Eric Rice for stepping up and providing a mix of music that kept everyone grooving into the night. I also want to thank the Rec Committee members for making this event so enjoyable. Many hands make light work ?
