Stay'n Alive Without Funding

As most have heard, local jurisdictions are facing budget issues.

The following webpage includes details of reduction options presented to the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors.

How do you feel about closing a police station?

What about elimination of Clinic Room Aides from School Health Program?

And the many volunteer programs that could be impacted.

Take a look at the following presentations for detailed proposed options.

Red Cross Volunteers Recognized for Hurricane Response

The American Red Cross was recognized this morning by the Chairman at the local Board of Supervisors meeting during Emergency Preparedness Month Proclamation for their efforts during recent Hurricane Response.

Several articles of local Red Cross volunteer teams responding in our community and other areas across the United States can be found on the American Red Cross of the National Capital Region website. These are just some of the many volunteers that responded across the nation.

If you are interested in making a difference in your community, consider volunteering with the American Red Cross.

You never know when you may need their services.

Viva Citizen Corps Council

Thanks to Adeel (pictured above) for coordinating Citizen Corps Council outreach efforts at Viva Vienna. We spoke to residents and handed out brochures in the Board of Supervisors tent.

Other Citizen Corps Council members who could be spotted at the fair include Lauren with Vienna Fire (our student representative) and Charles (our Boy Scout representative). Along with multiple CERT members.
