In addition to supporting the Northern Virginia Training Center's 5K Race Into Autumn as an event sponsor, Fairfax Civitan members were on hand at the event to help out with registration, water station attendants, course monitors, and other activities as needed. Joni's son, Robbie, participated in the one mile "Fun Run" and provided the power for a wheelchair participant. The very attractive t-shirt (pictured above) with the Civitan logo prominently displayed on the back, was worn by all event volunteers. The rust colored version, worn by Robbie in the picture on the left, was given to all registerd event participants.

Following the "Run Into Autumn," many Fairfax Civitans gathered at Wilcoxen Park to do another of our four annual park clean-up activities. It was a great day for a "walk in the park," and with the large turnout, the clean-up was quickly completed. Once again, those who visit the Park have a clean and beautiful resource to enjoy.

The weekend before the race and park clean-up, Fairfax Civitans gathered at the Sunrise Assisted Living facility at Fair Oaks for a rousing afternoon of bingo with the folks who live there. They are always excited to win one of the many great prizes provided by our club, most of which can be used for activities of daily living.

Together, we can make a difference!
