Grant Circle Social is tonight 11/18

Join your Petworth neighbors and hang out at the Grant Circle Social at 6pm, Wednesday. Bring your kids, your dogs but not your stress -- it's time to kibbitz with your friends instead. Hope to see you there!

About Grant Circle Social:
Enjoy some neighborly conversation at the tenth monthly Grant Circle Social. A casual, no agenda gathering of neighbors in Petworth's signature green space, Grant Circle Socials are held from 6pm to 7pm the Third Wednesday of the month.

Southwest Petworth Social heads indoors to Lyman's Tavern

Organizer Russ Breckenridge sent out an email that the next Southwest Petworth Lemonade Social was going to meet at Lyman's Tavern (3720 14th St NW, 14th & Randolph Streets) -- so NOT at the corner park between Quincy & Kansas Ave NW. The Social is tomorrow, Wednesday, October 28th at 6:30. CM Brandon Todd will be onhand as well.

Lyman's is kid-friendly, and welcomes pets to the outdoor patio.

Sherman Circle Social tomorrow, October 7

The next Sherman Circle Social is this Wednesday, October 7th, from 5:30 to 6:30 at Sherman Circle. From organizer Pam Brown:

"Join your neighbors in celebrating the fall with some apple cider and friendly cheer. For those who have come to past socials, please spread the word and bring at least one new person with you to the social this month.  This may be a spouse, a neighbor, your kid, your pet, anyone. Please spread the word amongst those who may not be on email or listserv, and we hope to see you on Wednesday!"

Sherman Circle Social Wednesday, 9/2

The next Sherman Circle Social is next Wednesday, September 2nd at 5:30 pm at Sherman Circle. Come out and meet your neighbors as we bid farewell to summer and greet the new (school) year. Come one, come all. Pets, kids, and anyone else welcome. There will be lemonade to share and maybe even some ice pops！

As always, please spread the word to neighbors who may not be on the listservs or email.

Southwest Petworth Lemonade Social this Wednesday

The next Southwest Petworth Lemonade Social is this Wednesday, August 26th from 6:30pm to dark at the grassy triangle at Kansas Ave and Quincy Street. There's always some tasty lemonade and people have been bringing cookies, veggies and other treats -- feel free to bring something for neighbors (or local bloggers) to enjoy!

And make sure you tell your neighbors who may not be online -- getting out to meet people and kids in a causal setting makes for a great community event.

The SWP Lemonade Social is the fourth Wednesday of every month. 

Grant Circle Social is Wednesday, 8/19

The next (and 8th!) Grant Circle Social is Wednesday, August 19th from 6-7pm at the Grant Circle, appropriately enough. 

Stop by on your way home from work, on your way to the grocery store, before grabbing a bite to eat, or while walking your dog. Stop by with friends, neighbors, and/or kids for 5 minutes or the full hour! And please, invite your neighbors who may not be online and drag them along! 

To help beat the heat, this week will feature refreshing ice pops courtesy of neighbor (and Petworth News sponsor) Eddie Suarez! 

Hope to see you out there. And if you are interested in co-hosting a future Grant Circle Social please contact Rob Mandle.

Lemonade Social celebrates neighbors and new stop signs

The Southwest Petworth Lemonade Social was tonight at the triangular park between Quincy, Kansas and 13th Street. A nice turnout, lots of new faces.

Everyone enjoyed the new stop signs at Quincy Street. smile emoticon

It was nice to see ANC 4C commissioners Joe Martin and Zach Teutsch out with the neighbors, along with Khalil Thompson from the Mayor's office.
