Living in South Four Corners

Save the date!

SATURDAY, APRIL 28 from 8-11 am.
Each neighbor will set up in their own yard or coordinate with a neighbor to host in their yard. Please note there will be no charity pick up this year. We’ll post signs on streets and intersections the week of the sale. For more information, click Community Yard Sale. Need a little help getting started? Check out our Yard Sale Tips. If you’re available to make and post signs, please contact Jenny Cannon at jenny.cannon@gmail.com

Please join us on TUESDAY, JANUARY 16, for our community’s first meeting of the year.* Our invited speaker is Ann Keating, a licensed integrative dietetic nutritionist.

Ann’s approach to nutrition emphasizes the vital and interrelated physiological, environmental, socio-cultural, and spiritual roles of food in our lives. Her work recognizes the cognitive and physiological factors influencing the complex role of food and nutrition in human health.

Ann loves to share nutritional awareness, as well as practical tools, to help facilitate positive, sustainable health changes in her students and clients. One of Ann’s special interests is using nutritional therapy for mood, such as depression, anger, anxiety, stress, food cravings, and addiction.

Ann holds a Master’s degree in Nutrition and Integrative Health, and a Master’s degree in Health and Wellness Coaching. She currently serves as adjunct faculty at her alma mater, Maryland University of Integrative Health in Laurel, MD.

We look forward to seeing you at 7 pm on January 16. Please remember, SFCCA meetings now end promptly at 8:30 pm.

* SFCCA meetings are held bi-monthly on the third Monday of January, March, May, July, September, and November at Schwienhaut Senior Center, 1000 Forest Glen Rd. When the third Monday of the month falls on a federal holiday, the meeting is postponed, space permitting, to the following day.

Join your neighbors for an annual holiday tradition on Saturday, Dec 2nd, the Neighborhood Tree Lighting, at the corner of Lanark Way and Rogart Road. Gather for treats and socializing starting at 5:00pm, with the tree lighting taking place promptly at 5:30 pm. Donations of cookies or hot chocolate are welcome.

Please contact Jenny Cannon (jenny.cannon@gmail.com) if you can help.

We’ve got some great events and activities planned for 2017. Take a look! If you want to get involved, there’s lots of opportunity.

If you don’t see your interest represented, I urge you to start a group, plan an activity or join a committee. We really strive to have something for everyone.

It’s your active involvement and participation that creates a vibrant community — so come out and join us! I’ll look for your face in the crowd.
