"The Citizen" County Newsletter Goes Paperless with Bonus N

Published on January 06, 2017

It's that time in a young year when there's much to clean up — particularly trees and tree-based products. 

With that in mind, Arlington County has published a bonus paperless edition of The Citizen quarterly newsletter for January-February, filled with key winter weather tips, County Board actions, Arlington Public Schools happenings, parks and rec activities and other useful information. In this edition:

• Meet some adults with disabilities gaining skills through ArlingtonWeaves, Etc.


• Download a list of emergency phone numbers in case a big storm hits


• Learn how some 50,000 cubic yards of leaves will be free garden mulch for spring


• Make plans for the Friends of the Arlington Public Library's spring Muggle Ball

The January-February 2017 paperless edition of The Citizen is available digitally so there's one less item for the crowded recycling bin.

But if you're a fan of The Citizen in paper form, don't worry. New editions — still printed on paper made from recycled materials — will return to Arlington mailboxes in late winter and then in spring.

And to keep up with the County on a weekly basis, make sure you're signed up for The Insider enewsletter, for the latest news and events around Arlington. Delivered to your inbox every Thursday.
