2006 Providence District VolunteerFest®

Mr. Chairman:

The 2006 Providence District VolunteerFest® is held in conjunction with Volunteer Fairfax VolunteerFest® and the National Make a Difference Day to be held on October 28, 2006 which celebrates extraordinary deeds performed by ordinary people on America’s largest day of doing good. The day’s event will kick off at the Second Annual Merrifield Festival, sponsored by the Greater Merrifield Business Association, to be held on October 21, 2006 and will showcase the spirit of volunteerism throughout Providence District.

I would like to take this opportunity to invite the board and residents to participate in the 2006 Providence District VolunteerFest® events. Further, I request that the Office of Public Affairs publicize this event, including those coordinated by VolunteerFest® in Providence District and the county. More information on this year’s projects is available on my Web site at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/providence/projects/Vol_2006.htm or by calling my office.
