Community Celebrations/Fundraisers

Our Town-Wide Picnics have become our most popular event. The picnic is held on a Sunday afternoon in mid-September at the Fairfax Ball Field.  Picnics have featured live music, art, games,  and food and refreshments.

We hope that you connect  with neighbors at this event and are encouraged to start working with those you have met to make change - through block parties, opening community pathways, educating your friends about fire prevention and other good works that help make Fairfax neighborhoods even better close-knit communities!

2009 Picnic

The 2009 Picnic was held on Sunday September 20th at the Fairfax Ball Field.  This year's picnic featured live musical entertainment from the Gasmen and Makuru. Fairfax's local micro-brewery provided refreshment; food, lemonade and treats were available from local vendors and youth organizations; and activities included Peace Flag creations, a Children's Maze, Wearable Tattoos, a Pie-Eating Contest, a Jumpee House, and neighborhood Tug-of-Wars.
