Cluster Cleanup – Oct 19

Join your neighbors Saturday, October 19 at 9 AM for beautification and cleanup projects around the cluster. Everyone is welcome to pitch in! All ages and skill levels are encouraged to attend.

We will have a community cookout immediately following, which usually begins around noon. This is not only a great way to build sweat equity but also to meet your neighbors. Hope to see you all there!

Community Yard Sale

The Cluster will be having a community wide yard sale on Saturday, October 12, from 8 AM to 1 PM.

You and your family are welcome to participate by selling household items. On the day of the yard sale , display your items on the yard or sidewalk in front of your home. The planning committee will do all the advertising for the event.

Unsure about what to do with unsold items at the end of the sale? Goodwill and Habitat for Humanity will take most household goods. Additionally, leftover pieces can be discarded during the Cluster Cleanup in the large dumpster the following weekend (October 19).

Want to participate as a seller? Contact Kristina at kdninabean@gmail.com or test 703-864-3282.
