Week in Reston

Hudgins to Host Open House on Reston’s Future

Hunter Mill District Supervisor Cathy Hudgins is hosting an Open House,“Reston… Blueprint for the Future” on April 20, 6 to 8:30 p.m. at South Lakes High School, 11400 South Lakes Drive, in the cafeteria.

The Open House will provide an opportunity for the Reston community to gather information on proposed, planned and anticipated development activity within the Transit Station Areas. In addition, Fairfax County Government agencies will also present other area projects at this event. The overall goal is for property owners and/or developers to share with the community a comprehensive vision of what is being considered for the future of Reston.

Local Food Banks Need Milk to Feed the Hungry

Milk is one of the most requested, but least donated items at local food banks. So, Shoppers Food and Pharmacy store employees hope to inspire area residents to donate to the Great American Milk Drive. With $80,000 raised last year, Shoppers and the Mid-Atlantic Dairy Association once again invite the community to help feed children nutrient-rich milk. The campaign kicks off April 7 with all stores participating in the milk drive until May 8, 2016.

The Great American Milk Drive is designed to simplify the process of donating milk, a perishable item, so area residents can more easily donate nutritious milk to local families facing hunger. Consumers who make small donations in-store or at milklife.com/give will help food banks deliver a gallon of milk to a family in need, helping to ensure that all children receive the vital nutrients that milk provides.
