MVCA Annual Picnic 2022

You and your family are invited to attend the Mount Vernon Civic Association Annual Picnic on May 14, 2022, at 1 pm, on the grounds of St. James Episcopal Church, located at 5614 Old Mill Rd, Alexandria. This is the first time we've been able to gather with our neighbors in three years. Please come celebrate with us! At 1:30 pm, we will take time to thank our First Responders for their service during the pandemic and other special guests. Immediately after that, we will be providing a picnic lunch of grilled pork brats, hot dogs, potato salad, coleslaw, veggie and fruit trays, dessert and drinks. A band will add music for us to enjoy and a bouncy house will add to the fun. Our picnic will conclude at 5 pm. Please RSVP by return email to maryjomalik@yahoo.com .

ABOUT MVCA

The Mount Vernon Civic Association (MVCA) was organized by local residents in 1971 and over the past 40 years has grown from representing approximately 400 households to over 900. MVCA is a non-profit and consists of volunteers who donate their time and resources to make our community a better place for everyone.

The MVCA is a member of the Mount Vernon Council of Civic Associations and the Fairfax County Federation of Civic Associations. The Association represents its members through direct contact with local elected leaders and through its participation in the Mount Vernon Council and Fairfax County Federation.

The MVCA serves the needs of the local community through service projects, such as the annual community clean-up, neighborhood watch, and support to neighborhood schools and organizations.
