The Roland Park 4th of July Family Parade is back to the actual day of the holiday! In case you missed it in the Summer 2023 edition of Roland Park News, the festivities will begin next Tuesday at 10am with a reading from the Declaration of Independence on the library steps, then proceed south down Roland Avenue, led by our local fire truck, to the intersection at Upland Road. There will be popsicles for everyone!

The Roland Park Presbyterian Church will once again open its doors to offer bathrooms, water, and air conditioning for those who need to cool down.

Please join us in your brightest and boldest red, white and blue regalia, and be sure to decorate your bikes, strollers and pets!

On Wednesday, May 3, at 6 p.m., the Civic League will hold its annual meeting of its members at Roland Park Elementary/Middle School. We are pleased to announce that Mayor Brandon Scott will join us and give remarks. All are welcome!

In addition to reporting on the League’s business, we will vote on next year’s Board members. This post includes the proposed slate of new and continuing members, along with their brief biographies, and our formal letter announcing the meeting.

We will also be voting to approve the minutes from last year’s annual meeting.

Looking forward to reuniting in person this year with all our neighbors!

The Civic League will meet this Wednesday, March 1st at 7PM for their monthly meeting.  All are welcome!  Meetings take place in person in the basement meeting space at the Presbyterian Church (4801 Roland Avenue).  Meeting agenda and Zoom link below.

Santa is coming back to cruise around the Roland Park community! As is the (2 yr!) tradition, he will ride on a vintage fire truck, thanks to the Maryland Fire Museum and the generosity of a local family. The Santa visit is Sunday, December 18th, starting at 11AM.  Raindate is Saturday, December 17th at 11AM.

Keep checking social media for any Santa-related updates, and by all means, be good!

Here is the route map (it’s the same as last year, so if you had a favorite spot, go back to it!)
