<span style="border: 0px; color: #1d2129; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">We've heard that some people think that just because the parade is cancelled, the rest of the day is off, too. That's NOT true! We want to celebrate Cheverly's 85th birthday with as many people as we can, so make your way to the big tents at the Community Center after 2pm on Saturday, May 21, for a great celebration. And please, help us spread the word...the more, the merrier! </span><br />

Into every life a little rain must fall...and we are definitely getting our share! As you probably already know, the weather this Saturday looks unseasonably cool and quite rainy, so we have come up with a brilliant "B" plan to save Cheverly Day. We hope that you will join us for Cheverly's grand 85th BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION!</div>
</div>
<div id="u34333-6" style="background-color: #d9e021; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px solid transparent; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px; max-height: 1000000px; padding: 0px 10px; transform-origin: 0% 0%;">

Please join us at the Community Center beginning at 2pm on Saturday for a day filled with music, food, art and fun. Bring your families, friends, and neighbors and spend the afternoon enjoying the community. Who knows...there may even be a little birthday cake to celebrate 85 years of Cheverly! Please visit our website for the complete schedule.</div>
<div id="u34333-9" style="background-color: #d9e021; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px solid transparent; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px; max-height: 1000000px; padding: 0px 10px; transform-origin: 0% 0%;">

What about the rest of the day? The parade? The fireworks? We are still hoping to bring two favorite outside events to you on Saturday, but with some minor alterations. We hope to begin the parade at 10am as originally scheduled (participants please check in and line up at 9am). We do plan to have fireworks as scheduled, but will need to make a final determination at 7pm on Saturday. <span id="u34333-11" style="font-weight: bold;">Please make sure to follow us on </span><a class="nonblock" href="https://www.facebook.com/Cheverly-Day-142851379104423/" style="background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px solid transparent; color: #0071bc; font-weight: bold; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transform-origin: 0% 0%;">Facebook</a><span id="u34333-15" style="font-weight: bold;"> and </span><a class="nonblock" href="https://twitter.com/CheverlyDay" style="background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px solid transparent; color: #0071bc; font-weight: bold; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transform-origin: 0% 0%;">Twitter</a><span id="u34333-19" style="font-weight: bold;"> for the very latest news on the parade, fireworks, and all other events.</span></div>

Unfortunately, several great attractions -- the East-West Softball Game, most Midway games, Bubble Soccer, the dunk tank, and putt putt golf -- are cancelled because of the poor conditions of the fields. We have also cancelled our circulator service for Saturday. Look for all these events to return in 2017. We will go ahead with laser tag, which will be on the basketball court, and the 3 on 3 Tourney has been rescheduled for Sunday, May 22.</div>

Throughout the week, we'll be sharing these notes. This morning, Crystal and Arvind Lal share their thoughts.

Cheverly is fortunate to have the Lals!</i></div>

<b>Tell us a little about yourself:</b><br />
Arvind is US Attorney, but be has also been a baseball coach for the Cheverly Wolverines and for many years a Boy Scout Troup Leader. Crystal teaches at Weekday Nursery School. Both of our children were born and raised in Cheverly. Nick is 21 and attends Emory in Atlanta and works as a lifeguard at the pool. Abby just turned 25 and lives in Brooklyn but comes down to visit often with her cat Willa.<br />
<br />
<b>How long have you lived in Cheverly?</b><br />
Since 1988 <br />
<br />
<b>How did you first learn aboutCheerly?</b><br />
We got lost looking for houses in New Carrolton!<br />
<br />
<b>What's the biggest challenge about living here?</b><br />
Not having a local public school for all children through grade 12. <br />
<br />
<b>What's your favorite thing about Cheverly?</b><br />
Our neighbors! They are the best! <br />
<br />
<b>What's the most interesting thing you've learned about Cheverly?</b><br />
Corey Flintoff has a house here!<br />
<br />
<b>Most surprising? </b><br />
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the pool was originally dug by hand by residents - or so told once by John Garrity who was our neighbor.<br />
<br />
<b>What would you like people to know about Cheverly?</b><br />
When we were looking for houses more than 20 years ago, we were told that Cheverly was an oasis and that it's a great place to raise children. That's still true. <br />
<br />
<b>Can you sum up in one sentence why Cheverly is where you want to be?</b><br />
Cheverly has a wonderful sense of community and a wonderful diversity of people from all walks of life.<br />

The beer truck -- full of ice cold beer -- anchors a corner of the lower parking lot cordoned off with orange plastic fencing. The long tables are the site of many conversations with groups of friends and neighbors catching up throughout the day, and a favorite vantage point for the fireworks at night. In addition to beer, the Beer Garden offers root beer for the kids and free peanuts...we've enjoyed many hours cracking peanut shells and catching up with people we somehow only manage to see once a year at, you guessed it, the Beer Garden.</span></span></div>

Cheverly is where I want to be because I and my family have always felt welcome here. We moved to Cheverly, from DC, after hearing about it from a friend and we immediately fell in love with the neighborhood and proximity to not one but three interesting metropolitan areas. We also have ready access to natural space, something that is very important to me. After 19 years here, I still encounter places, people and situations that delight me around Cheverly. We required a metro stop and Cheverly has one. I enjoy knowing that I can walk out of my door, greet my wonderful neighbors, board public transportation and begin a trip to anywhere in the world that I may want to go. My adventures do not begin when I reach my final destination, they begin when I walk out of my door, no matter how far my travels eventually take me. </div>

Our children grew up, or<i style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px;"> are</i> growing up here, and I am proud of that. My daughter recently told me on a walk, as she was admiring her neighborhood, that it was a shame that as an adult she will never be able to live here. When I asked why not, she replied that since, we, her parents already live here she could not even consider it. I'm hopeful that she changes her mind after she has some adventures away from us. I was fortunate and happy to be able to go down a long list of people that she knows who grew up in Cheverly, went away to college or for jobs for awhile, and are now raising their own children here. Even in our own lives our baby-sitting lineage has successfully passed through generations. My daughter baby-sits for the children of one of her former baby-sitters. For some in town that lineage is four generations strong. </div>

I recently had the opportunity to take my sister-in-law on a walking tour of Cheverly and got to see her reaction to sights and symbols that I take for granted. I told her about the Little Free Libraries in the neighborhood as she admired the just blooming azaleas all over town. On our way to Woodworth Park, which is one of my favorite neighborhood gems, we stopped at the Elephant, ‘Puzzle It Out,’ at Town Hall. Even though our family spearheaded the effort to paint it, we could not, on our own bring it to Cheverly. It was part of a larger public art installation in DC that was ultimately intended to raise money for the arts and humanities. All of the Party Animals, including ‘Puzzle It Out,’ were auctioned off after being displayed around Washington for the summer in 2002. (Puzzle It Out was displayed at the Children's Museum in DC, which is no longer in existence.) A heartwarming and inspiring effort by the Cheverly Mayor (Larry Beyna, at the time) and other elected officials, Cheverly citizens, teachers and students at Gladys Noon Spellman Elementary and the Town Administration successfully fought off a determined and unexpected bidder to ultimately bring our Elephant home. Even though I generally identify as a donkey, our elephant at Town Hall is a reminder of the community spirit that is exhibited in so many ways in Cheverly. These are just some of the reasons why Cheverly is Where <i style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px;">I </i>Want to Be.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">My name is Lisa Schultz and I’ve lived in Cheverly for 11 years. I bought my first house here on the east side of Cheverly as a single gal and now I have a home on the west side of Cheverly Ave with my husband and two children. I am originally from Oklahoma City but spent seven years of my twenties living in Europe. I currently work for the US Senate as a Chief of Staff. ICHOOSECHEVERLY was ‘born’ two years ago in June 2014. </span><br />

<span style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">A couple years ago I remember thinking to myself, Tim and I could live pretty much anywhere in the DC area but we honestly choose to live in Cheverly. “I Choose Cheverly” became the mantra that I told my friends on Capitol Hill. None of my friends had heard of my amazing town so I figured I could start a blog to share my pictures and stories. It was as simple as that! I’m also obsessed with the diversity of our homes. </span></span></div>

<span style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The biggest challenge for me as a blogger is time. Not content, but time.

<span style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The most interesting thing I’ve learned about Cheverly since blogging has been the number of people who have lived here for 30 plus years.

Who knew that there was a potluck group, a home brewers group, a running group, volleyball group?!</span></span></div>

<span style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">One of the many reasons I choose to live in Cheverly is the community. It truly feels like a small Midwestern type town in many ways. People in DC think they must live an hour outside of the city to feel safe and to let their children ride bikes alone, but Cheverly is only one mile outside of DC and it is one of the safest places to live! It truly amazes me.</span></span></div>

If you're interested in sharing your perspective, please <a href="mailto:kathrynga@yahoo.com" target="_blank">email</a> us. We'd love to include many voices in this series. And don't forget: you can show everyone that Cheverly is where YOU want to be by wearing one of our great Cheverly Day 2016 t-shirts! They'll be available on Cheverly Day at the Midway (and possibly earlier...news coming soon!)</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The objective of bubble soccer is to score against your opponent’s net and knock each other down while trying. You could argue that this is one of those games where defense is more fun. The game starts much like a competitive game of dodgeball. When players hear the whistle, they fearlessly rush in to the center to find and kick a soccer ball through their about-to-be sweaty Battle Ball suit. The ever-increasing amount of sweat will eventually make visibility an ongoing struggle because the exercise is real and this IS most definitely a sport.</div>
</div>
<div id="u17705-98" style="background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px solid transparent; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-style: italic; line-height: 22px; max-height: 1000000px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px; text-indent: 20px; transform-origin: 0% 0%;">
<br /></div>
<div id="u17705-100" style="background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px solid transparent; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-style: italic; line-height: 22px; max-height: 1000000px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px; text-indent: 20px; transform-origin: 0% 0%;">
Players’ hands are fixed inside the bubble, requiring them to maintain balance using just their legs. Mobility is sacrificed in this game – but the Battle Balls have leveled the playing field for players of different sizes. Leaping ability and stress levels are the two most relevant variables. In regards to safety, we think that the coach and players sitting on the bench are in the greatest danger — you never know when an active player will accidentally steamroll the sidelines. It might take a few rotations for players to find their “game legs,” so in the beginning, they often become somewhat of a “human wrecking ball.”</div>

A height of 5′ 2″ – 6′ 2″ for large 1.5m balls and a height of 4′ 2″ – 5′ 7″ for the smaller 1.2m balls is recommended. These are approximate ranges as it also depends on how tall your neck and head are and how the back straps fit on you. We recommend having 4-8 inches of space above your head to the top surface of the ball to allow you to flip over. Smaller players are able to even crouch their legs into the ball and do advanced tricks. Taller players using balls not suited for them play at their own discretion.</div>

Each game will last about 15 minutes, and there will be two or three games per hour. The cost per player is $5 per game, or field a team of five players for $20 per game!</div>
