Winter Clothing Drive Continues Thru February


Did you get a nice warm coat or sweater as a holiday gift? There are people who could use your last year’s clothes. Interfaith Works provides free clothing to thousands of Montgomery County families. Please donate clean, gently used or never used warm coats, gloves, mittens, scarves, hats, sweaters, pants, and socks to those in need. Also needed are waterproof warm winter wear, for those who are outside in the cold rain or snow. The clothing box is located on the front porch of Marjorie Shaw and Barney Rush, at 6917 Maple Avenue (between Maple and Pine Place).

Antisemitism Workshop, January 16


If you would like to learn how to address the recent barrage of antisemitism in America, please join the Town of Chevy Chase and the Village of Martin’s Additions on January 16 from 7 to 8 p.m. for a special Zoom webinar presented by the American Jewish Committee.  Participants in this program will develop an understanding of the Jewish community and its diversity; learn how to recognize antisemitism and how it manifests today; examine how it differs from other forms of bigotry; discuss when criticism of Israel crosses the line into antisemitism; understand how antisemitism impacts democracy; and discuss what we as individuals and as a neighborhood can do about it.  To join this robust conversation, register here.

TOCC Book Club, January 22


The Town of Chevy Chase Book Club will be reading "Foster" and "Small Things Like These," by Claire Keegan and discussing them on Monday, January 22 at 7 p.m. in the Town Hall. Two short novellas with stellar reviews! All town residents are welcome to this Community Relations Committee sponsored event.
