Flores Gambino 50th Annual Memorial Day Picnic

This year was the 50th annual celebration of the Flores Gambino Family Memorial Day Picnic, in the Penrose neighborhood off Columbia Pike.

Homegrown live music, homemade covered dishes, a pig roast, barbecue, relatives, friends, neighbors, moon bounce for the kids, and much cheer.

This event genuinely is "all good."

Thanks to Maria Flores, Joe Flores, Maria "Pete"Durgan, and the whole merry and diverse Flores Gambino clan. May you celebrate at least fifty more together.

Patrick Henry School- Third grade field trip

Students from Ms. Dahlia Constantine's 3rd grade class at Patrick Henry School are working to document and create advocacy projects about issues of concern in their community, which is along Columbia Pike.

These photographs were all made during their visit to the Columbia Pike Revitalization Organization (CPRO), where they heard from the director, Takis Karantonis.

Note: All students in Arlington County Public Schools have their own Apple iPads issued to them for use.

Thanks to Ms. Constantine and all her energetic students, and to Takis Karantonis.
