As a new resident of Cabell's Mill (or an
existing resident interested in learning more about the community), the
following information will provide you with a foundation of the activities in
and around the Cabell's Mill community.
Listed below are some of the many benefits of living in the
Cabell's Mill.
Annual Picnic. Each Fall, the CMCA
sponsors a community picnic held in the neighborhood. Bring the kids and
meet your new neighbors! Past activities have included moon bounces,
assorted food and drink, face painting and cotton candy, to name a
few. By the look of the pictures,
the picnic was a resounding
success! Look for more specific information on the CMCA website or in the
newsletters.
For more information, send
CMCA an e-mail.

Annual Yard Sale. One man's junk
is another man's treasure, right?!? And what better way to find new
treasures than a community yard sale! Each Spring and Fall, CMCA coordinates the
neighborhood yard sale. By coordinating our efforts, our neighborhood
"stores" will enjoy greater profits.

Community
Association. Each property owner within Cabell's Mill belongs to
the Cabell's Mill Community Association. The CMCA serves as the governing
body of the neighborhood guided by the board of directors, which consists of
neighbors who have volunteered their time to serve the community. The
board meets the second Wednesday each month in the James D. McDonnell Community
Room at Sully Station to discuss matters important to the community or upcoming
events. February the Annual meeting is held the first Tuesday of the month. In
addition, the board is also responsible for enforcing the CMCA covenants and
managing the finances. Please
contact the board if you are interested in attending a regular board meeting
in case there has been a meeting change.

Parks and Recreation.
The neighborhood of Cabell's
Mill backs to Ellanor Lawrence Park. This park, which encompasses both
Cabell's Mill and the Walney Visitor Center, provides a number of activities for
all members of the family. Poplar Tree Park is located just down the
street and includes numerous athletic fields and a playground for the little
ones.
In addition to these Fairfax County Parks, there are numerous trails within
Cabell's Mill and the surrounding neighborhoods for walking, biking or jogging.
