Brookville-Seminary Valley Civic Association, Inc. Neighborhood Night to Unite

Friday August 21, 2020 6pm

Brookville-Seminary Valley Civic Association, Inc. invites you to join us for our Neighborhood Night to Unite. On Friday August 21st we come together to celebrate our neighborhood and reaffirm our support of a diverse and inclusive community. We stand in solidarity with our black and brown neighbors against bias and systemic racism.

We will kick off our celebration with a socially distanced Bike parade through the neighborhood. At the conclusion of the parade we invite everyone to bring their grill down to the end of your driveway and share in one humongous cookout. Feel free to wander through our community, connect with old friends and build new relationships. Everyone is asked as they connect, to continue to practice social distancing guidelines and everyone is strongly encouraged to wear a mask as you fellowship with one another.

To help support those individuals within our community who have been greatly affected by the Coronavirus, there will be a neighborhood t-shirt for sale for $10 and all net proceeds will be donated to Alexandria’s ALIVE!, Inc. Each t-shirt will feature the BSCVA crest, #Black Lives Matter, and “Neighborhood Night to Unite.”

Beverley Hills Wheel Day

Wheel Day May 24^th, 2020

1-3pm

Porch Party Celebration

Food trucks in the Trinity parking lot. (Details to follow)

This year Wheel Day will look a little different. We encourage you all to spend time celebrating our community and each other safely and responsibly from your porch or yard. We ask that you wear a mask when you are out in the neighborhood to keep yourself and our vulnerable neighbors safe and healthy. 

Let’s get creative! Have the kiddos chalk up everything. Decorate your yard, your bike in your yard, yourself in your yard. Play music and dance! Do you have a super cool talent you could share? Do you juggle? Do you play guitar? Can you long jump over chalk lava? The more patriotic, the better.

As always, please practice social distancing and do not gather in large groups. Together Apart.
