Description

VIENNA, VA — Volunteers who have made a difference in Vienna over the last two years will be recognized at the Mayor's Volunteer Reception on Tuesday. The public is invited to attend the event hosted by Vienna Mayor Linda Colbert and former Mayor Laurie DiRocco at 6:30 p.m. on the Town Green. The location was moved from the Vienna Volunteer Fire Department to the Town Green due to a recent increase in delta variant COVID-19 cases in Fairfax County. "The science is clear that illness transmission is less likely to happen outdoors, and the Town Green is a beautiful location for events," Colbert said. "The weather forecast looks good and we're looking forward to thanking volunteers who selflessly supported Vienna during a very difficult two years." In the case of inclement weather, the event will be moved to the Vienna Community Center. This year's Volunteer Reception recognizes two years of volunteers since the 2020 event was cancelled for pandemic-related reasons. Residents were invited to nominate their Hometown Heroes through Aug. 31. Group and individual volunteers will be honored.
