Come on out and help distribute Girl Scout cookies to all of Virginia Beach! This event was a blast last year, and you definitely won't need to work out for a couple days after... This will involve unpacking cookie boxes from trucks, then counting and placing them into the vehicles each Girl Scout troop drives up. At the end fo the day, volunteers have historically received a free box of cookies! Final registration numbers are due to the event coordinatora by February 14th. There will be 2 shift options released at a later date (likely 7-10 and 10-1), or you can come help the whole time. Interact members welcome!

Come join us once more with Lynnhaven River Now's environmental clean up series to pick up trash and beautify the Diamond Springs and Gardenwood Park area. We are looking for 5-6 volunteers to make this event a success! Interact is welcome. 

Please join us for this dinner meeting where we will induct new members into the club and receive an update from the American Red Cross.

Let's bring some St. Patty's Day luck to the kids of the Crisis Intervention Center during a fun-filled Bingo night! Wear green and be ready to call out some Bingo squares!

Spring is upon us! Let's beautify the deck at the Crisis Intervention Center with some fresh stain. Be sure to wear clothes you're willing to get a little dirty and bring water, sunscreen, and a hat.

If we end up with April showers, our rain date is April 27th, same time.

***UPDATE TO THIS EVENT***

Due to the inclement weather forecasted for later today, we have decided to cancel our walking tour of the ViBe Creative District. We will however gather for dinner at Coach's Bar and Grill inside the Doubletree Hotel at 1900 Pavilion Drive. To celebrate National Pet Day, Coach's is donating 10% of all sales for the night to Hope for Life Animal Rescue. Since this is not an official club dinner, we will each be responsible for paying our bill. 

If you can join us for dinner, please click the link to register so that we can let the restaurant know how many of us to expect.

About the ViBe Creative District:

Our Name:

ViBe stands for Virginia Beach: Vi=Virginia & Be= Beach

ViBe’s name came from our founding member of the Friends of the Creative District, the legendary Charles Powell. The lightning bolt symbolizes the spark of creativity and energy found here and was inspired by sculpture from the late Virginia Beach artist Larry Mednic located at Runnymede Corporation. The logo was designed by resident ViBe artist Igors Custom.
