When I left home yesterday morning to meet a group of fellow Rotarians in Springfield it was 27° according to the exterior thermometer on my car. If there was any good news it was that there was no significant amount of wind. The first order of business was to meet in the Einstein Brothers Bagel Bakery parking lot (this will play a major role later) and receive our stylish orange vests and trash bags. We "hit the road" in two or three person co-ed teams to different sections of Rolling Road. Arthur came with me and was assigned the job of photographer. Many of the photos he took will be uploaded to the club's website. Obviously, he snapped this one of me for our own use. My Team has 34 years experience in Alexandria, Annandale, Arlington, Burke, Centreville, Chantilly, Fairfax, Falls Church, Lorton, McLean, Oakton, Reston, Springfield, Vienna, Fairfax County ”Experience Isn’t Expensive – It’s PRICELESS” If you plan to buy or sell a Cardinal Forest, Springfield or other Fairfax County home or property contact Karen and Art by Email or call us at 703-690-6569. Put our record of customer service, real estate experience and state-of-the-art technology to work for you in Alexandria, Arlington County, Fairfax County, Prince William County, Stafford County or the entire Northern Virginia Area.
As you can see we participate in the Virginia Department of Transportation's "Adopt A Highway" program. We are regularly assigned the area of Rolling Road from Old Keene Mill Road south to the Fairfax County Parkway. That section of roadway is one of the busiest in the Springfield area.
The filled bags are left at curbside for subsequent pickup by VDOT.
Our work is complete and we have returned to Einstein Brothers Bagel Bakery to warm up and enjoy fellowship - after community service it is one of the important benefits of being a Rotarian anywhere in the world.
