Monica and I really enjoyed the Parade of Homes that happened on the 15th of September. We got to meet some residents that we haven’t met before and got to tour some fantastic homes! Thank you to the homeowners who graciously opened up their homes and for the enthusiasm that you displayed while everyone was in your homes!
Also I would like to thank Kirstin Armstrong, Deirdre Vho, and Ana Hite for undertaking the task of organizing the event! You did an outstanding job!
Thank you to the sponsors of the event, Bauernshub Realty. They made sure that the two mailers that were sent to your house were donated by the Realty team, and they put together some AWESOME gift bags when you picked up your tickets! Thank you Chris and Elizabeth!
In addition, they donated two $100 Gift Cards, (1 for the attendee raffle, and 1 for the homeowner raffle). I am pleased to announce the winners
You are automatically entered for a $100 Home Depot Gift Card that was donated by Bauernshub Realty Team when you purchase your ticket!
The First Ever Parade of Homes (POH) is 15 September 2019 from 1-4pm. The communities that have houses that will be show cased are located in Canterbury Woods, Stonehaven, and Red Fox Forest.
Proceeds will go to the CW Swimming Pool. We have approximately 13 homes that will be showing renovations that have been done in their homes. Thank you to the homes that volunteered!!
The renovations will include kitchens, bathrooms, patios, etc. We are not going to advertise the houses or their addresses prior to the event. Everyone can pick up their tickets at the Canterbury Woods Swimming Pool Pavilion where you will be issued a lanyard or paper bracelet that shows that you paid for the event. You will be given a list of addresses and the renovations that the homeowner will be showcasing for the POH.
The houses will also be marked with a sign and marker on the outside of their property, but they won’t let you in unless you have your lanyard and/or paper bracelet. This is self-paced, we are not going as a group! Please respect the homeowners and remove your shoes or wear the provided booties upon entering the house. If you bring young kids, please ensure that they stay within the boundaries established by the homeowners.
You can buy your tickets online at the below link prior to the event at a discount. You are also given the option to donate more money if you wish (this is a fundraiser for the pool!)You can also buy tickets at the Pavilion the day of the event!! Thank you to Deirdre Vho, Kirstin Armstrong, and Ana Hite for all their hard work organizing the event!
ONLY CW, SH, and RFF RESIDENTS MAY PARTICIPATE
Attendees will meet at Canterbury Woods Swim Club pavilion for tickets, maps, and wristbands. Interested in showcasing your renovations? Please contact Kirstin Armstrong at (703) 507-2125.

The CWCA Gazette was mailed to each home in CW in April and among the helpful info and announcements was an envelope for your $30.00 annual dues. If you haven’t gotten around to paying your dues and no longer have the envelope, NO PROBLEM!

NOTE: Whether you are a renter or a homeowner, you benefit from the efforts of the many volunteers who give their time to the CWCA . Even if you never attend a social event sponsored by the CWCA, our community is made more attractive by the fact that we host such events. All residents also receive our newsletters, get a directory booklet, and have access to our website. In addition, periodically we have house numbers painted on the curbs in front of each home. For a more complete understanding of what the CWCA does for you, you could attend the annual meeting OR contact one of the present Board members (see this website or the newsletter for names.)
