HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the U.S. NAVY! The Navy traces its roots to the early days of the American Revolution, back to Oct 13, 1775 and the Continental Congress. With thousands of ships and aircraft serving worldwide, the U.S. Navy of today is a force to be reckoned with.
Four (4) of our Town staff are Navy Veterans – Dale Estridge (Fire), Stephany Peterson (Planning), William Geyer (Fire), and Jeremy Credeur (Planning). Be sure to wish them a Happy Navy Birthday if you see them!

Health is Wealth at the Arlington Senior Center! And this Saturday they are offering COMPLIMENTARY CHECKUPS from Noon-3pm.
