Gulf Branch Nature Center Celebrates 43rd Birthday - Join us on Saturday, June 13, 2009, from 2 – 5 pm, rain or shine, to celebrate our saved nature center! Come learn its history and enjoy its natural wonders. Activities for children and adults. Music by the New Old-Time String Band and a demonstration at the Blacksmith Forge. There will be birthday cake, of course! Bring photos taken at Gulf Branch to have them scanned on site and included in the Community Collage Project. Free admission; donations requested. Gulf Branch Nature Center is located at 3608 Military Road, Arlington, VA 22207 For more information, or to volunteer, call the Nature Center at: 703-228-3403 Neighborhood Day Success! - We celebrated Neighborhood Day on Saturday, May 16th at the Madison Center with many friends and neighbors. The fire station came by for a great visit and the kids loved the moon bounce and face painter. Many children were transformed into lions, bears, and other animals thanks to the face painter. We also enjoyed some yummy cotton candy! Thank you all! Read our May 2009 Newsletter! - Highlights include information about Neighborhood Day, Gulf Branch Nature Center and its birthday, and great green events in the community. Take Advantage of these Free Green Events! Two Wheels or Two Feet: Sharing the Way - Now that spring (and judging by the last few days, maybe summer) has arrived, more of us are using two wheels or two feet to get around Arlington. To ensure that pedestrians and bicyclists "share the way" safely and courteously, the County has developed a flyer, which offers cyclists and pedestrians some quick, clear tips on sharing Arlington's trails and sidewalks. Press the link above to learn more! Senior Programs and Classes - Virginia Hospital Center organizes many programs for seniors such as exercise classes, a mall walking program, lectures on skin care, diabetes, osteoporosis, and medication management.
