CURRENT HAPPENINGS
 The new Reed-Westover Facility, a joint project between Arlington Public Schools and the Arlington County Government, has been awarded Gold Certification in the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) program by the US Green Building Council (USGBC). The joint facility includes the Reed School which houses the district’s teen parenting program and the Children’s School and Integration Station, a countywide preschool program, and the Arlington Public Library’s new Westover Branch. The facility was completed and dedicated in October 2009.   more details


Free walk and talk on all things trees.
        Tree Stewards Arlington & Alexandria invite you to a free 90 minute walk and talk on all things trees in your neighborhood. We'll show you examples of tree care in the neighborhood and discuss the following questions:  What trees are appropriate for planting near power lines?  What is the dollar benefit of trees in reducing air conditioning? How close to my house or street can I plant my tree?  Will tree roots damage my home's foundation?  Do I need to mulch, and how much is the right amount? Should I choose a native or non-native tree?  How much water do newly planted trees and established mature trees need?   Tree Steward volunteers will be available at the event to answer your questions. Contact  TreeStewards_ArlAlex@verizon.net   for more information.  Just show up (no RSVP necessary) at one or all of the following:
Saturday, June 12, 3pm, Plaza at Westover Library, 1644 N. McKinley Road.
