Quick updates!
First looking ahead, there are a few events coming up this week that I’ll be attending and would love to see you at:
Wednesday evening - Advance Arlington’s Quiz the Candidates Night
Thursday evening - Meet & Greet joint event with James “Vell” Rives (school board candidate) and me
Saturday evening - Meet & Greet joint event again with Vell targeted toward our friends in Douglas Park (email me at engage@madison4countyboard.com if you’re interested in attending).
Looking backward at this past week:
I participated in Arlington County Civic Federation’s candidate forum on Tuesday night. See here for the video!
Yesterday / Saturday evening my husband Ross and I ran in the 9/11 Memorial 5k put on by Arlington Police, Fire, Sheriff, and ECC. It was a great event and a beautiful evening. Big shoutout to the organizers for their successful execution as well as their service to our community every day. Ross and I enjoyed biking to the event! Though we had some snafus with biking home - Ross got a flat tire and, though he had a replacement tube, we realized my pump didn’t work with his type of tire/tube. I remembered that Arlington County has bike fix it stations near certain Metro stops and we were excited to try to use the one at Pentago City to inflate his tire… until we got there and found the pump was broken. Buses and metro were stopped or delayed at the time due to a medical emergency, further complicating our efforts to get home. All worked out fine after I biked home solo and returned with my car to pick him up. I also submitted a request for Arlington County to fix the broken pump through their online portal. Hopefully they’ll get that back up and running soon!
We’re in the final months of the campaign which is real crunch time. We’re particularly in need of volunteers and donations. Please sign up to help however you can at www.madison4countyboard.com - thanks!
