Twinbrook Pool Party A Success

>Rockville Central friend Brigitta Mullican passed along the following update on the weekend’s Twinbrook Pool Party. It sounds like a hoot!

The Twinbrook Pool Party this weekend was a great success! The three main sponsors were the Twinbrook Swimming Pool, the Twinbrook Citizens Association (TCA), and the Crusader Lutheran Church. The City of Rockville supported the event with a $1,000 Neighborhood Matching Grant requested by TCA. Event coordinators were Elizabeth Bono and Brigitta Mullican. Volunteer hours were matched for the grant by the:

Crusader Lutheran Church Members; Rockville Bike Advisory Committee; Rockville Sister City Corporation; Community Ministries of Rockville; League of Women Voters (MC); Montgomery County Street Outreach Network (DJ Yogii & 9 young adults in training ); Twinbrook Boy Scout Troop; D.C. Historic Trolley Representative (free tickets were given to 4 winners); John Jendzurski Band (Twinbrook Resident); Twinbrook Swimming Pool Board & Members; Twinbrook Citizens Association; Richard Montgomery and Rockville High School students; Twinbrook and Meadow Hall Elementary Schools.

We had 14 young adults from Richard Montgomery and Rockville High Schools who served approximately 500 free Sno-cones and popcorn. The Pool Concession sold over 400 hot dogs so you can see we had great attendance for the community event. We contributed the great event attendance to the Twinbrook and Meadow Hall Elementary Schools sending home the event flyers to the school families and all the local publicity received.

Thanks, Brigitta!
