Happy Halloween!
2024-10-31 | Virginia
Halloween is a holiday celebrated each year on October 31, and Fairfax County’s Halloween 2024 trick-or-treating will occur on Thursday, October 31. The tradition originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. In the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as a time to honor all saints. Soon, All Saints Day incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain. The evening before was known as All Hallows Eve, and later Halloween. Over time, Halloween evolved into a day of activities like trick-or-treating, carving jack-o-lanterns, festive gatherings, donning costumes and eating treats.

Stream Cleanup
2024-04-27 10:00 - 11:30 | Country Club View Park, 10609 Henrico Street, Fairfax, VA
On April 27, 2024, the CCV Stream Cleanup will be held from 10:00 am – 11:30 am. Celebrate Earth Day (April 22) by showing some love for our local stream, Sideburn branch of Pohick Creek! Please join us in reducing the amount of trash in the Country Club View Park stream to prevent it from continuing downstream! Last year there were basketballs, tennis balls, tubing, and even rusty chairs uncovered from the muck and brought out to be collected by the Park Authority. This is a great opportunity for students to earn service hours.
Two locations to meet: CCV Park by the tennis courts or the park entrance off of Grinnell Street. Dress appropriately for being in the woods and around the creek–wear gloves, long pants, and shoes that can get muddy. CCVCA will provide trash bags for volunteers and treats to enjoy after the cleanup.
Date subject to change due to weather.
Refreshments provided. This weekend is also the City Nature Challenge! Help the DC area make the most nature observations in this international contest! We can show you how to record your nature observations for the challenge.
