One of the goals of the Greater Burke Area Community
of Promise, of which Burke CARES is a founding member, is to see that safe
and secure after-school activities are available for all young people in
the greater Burke area.
Toward that end, the GBACOP is participating in the establishment of
a skatepark at the David R. Pinn Community Center on Zion Road, just north
of Burke Centre. If you have not yet seen the mural there, you may
want to go see it. It was designed by a local high school student
and painted by members of the community.
For more information about the Community of Promise, please call one
of the coordinators, Susan Lydick at 703-323-6671 or Rose Mahan at 703-44-0026. |
