Tomorrow is Neighborhood Day in Arlington. Ashton Heights is holding its traditional yard sale day -- attached to this post is a word document with a map of yard sales tomorrow and a spreadsheet with addresses and information on each yard sale.
Arlington's 14th annual Neighborhood Day is scheduled for Saturday, May 15, 2010 — it will be here before you know it!
It's always a great day filled with lots of fun things to do — fitness fairs, community park cleanups, the Animal Welfare League's Walk for the Animals, and, my personal favorite, the annual AHCA yard sale. It's the perfect time to do a little spring cleaning and earn some money — or get something for a great price! The AHCA yard sale runs from 8:00 am – noon, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the rest of the day's festivities.

One of the great Arlington traditions is our neighborhood tree giveaway -- over the past few years Ashton Heights neighbors have planted HUNDREDS of trees to help make up for those lost to development, weather, and drought. Arlington County Parks and Natural Resources Division is again promoting the greening of the community’s neighborhoods and enhancement of Arlington’s tree canopy through the distribution of trees for this year’s annual County Neighborhood Day celebration. These small trees are approximately 3–5 feet in height and come in one or two-gallon plastic containers.

At the March AHCA meeting we discussed the County Staff's proposed changes to the RV Parking regulations. The staff proposal would have allowed for larger RVs to park in residential driveways. After discussion and a vote by the AHCA members, the Executive Board was charged with sending a letter to the County opposing the proposed changes and expressing concerns with the parking of any large vehicles in our neighborhood.
