Enjoy July 4th at the AFRH with the neighborhood!

Independence Day is almost here — which means the July 4th Celebration at the Old Soldiers' Home is back on the 4th!

Friends of the Soldiers Home (FOSH) is putting on another great July 4th Celebration from 4pm-9:30pm in the giant field on the grounds of the Home (340 Rock Creek Church Road NW).

Come out to hang with your neighbors and enjoy:

  • Music from DJ Billy "The Music Man" White

  • Kids Games and Bounce Houses

  • Food and Drink Trucks

  • Bike Parade hosted by Petworth Peanuts

  • and depending on weather, Fishing at the Lake with the Nam Knights

  • Food from Timber Pizza, City State Brewing, Rocklands Bar-B-Que, Kona Ice, Hitching Post and Captain Cookie

Volunteer!

They still need help with a variety of small jobs. Some of these roles include managing parking, running the beverage stand, supporting the FOSH table, monitoring the children activity zone, and more. If you’re interested in volunteering 1-2 hours of your time during this event please sign up!
