It’s all about the neighborhood
New ANC 4C Commissioner Bennet Hilley sent out an email to the SW Petworth listserv, suggesting neighbors get together at the end of April to plan a neighborhood clean up and beautification day. Here's Bennett's message:

Read MoreThe Southwest Petworth Lemonade Social is Wednesday, April 27 from 6:30pm until dark at the grassy triangle located at the intersection of Kansas Ave & Quincy St/13th St. If you haven't been before, this is a great way to hang out with your neighbors in a casual, relaxed setting. It's very family friendly -- kids, elderly and pets welcome.

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.
The next Southwest Petworth Lemonade Social is today -- Wednesday, July 22nd -- from "6:30 til dark" in the triangle park at Kansas and Quincy.
I'll be there to safely walk across Kansas Avenue while admiring the new all-way stop signs.
Bring your neighbors and come hang out!
Just a quick reminder that the next southwest Petworth Lemonade Social is tomorrow at 6:30pm at the triangle park at Kansas Ave and Quincy St NW. It's a great chance to meet nearby neighbors and talk with people you already know. Make sure you tell neighbors who may not be on Facebook or online about it (and then tell them to go online and read Petworth News, obviously).
See you there!
