It was very enjoyable to attend this session, especially the house tour on Radburn Court. It is a lovely house. Would never have imagined the inside to look so beautiful, roomy and and bright with so much daylight coming into the house. The nature around the house is also beautiful. The New Mark Commons house is three times the size of my Twinbrook house.

Max,
At some point in the season, they have a butterfly exhibit that is outstanding.

Max, thank you for writing the article and for sharing the photos. Please be advised that our non-profit organization is registered as “Rockville Sister City Corporation.” I suppose “Association” is similar, but just wanted to let you know our legal name since 1986.
Brigitta Mullican, President

Comment on Rockville Celebrates 25th Annual Memorial Day Weekend Festival by Jim Coyle

It is wonderful that we have reached 25 years with this. When we started this back then, the M &C has no idea if it would catch on with the public. if you recall the first, we had the event set up near the fountain in front of Rd Brick Courthouse. Martha Reeves and the Vandellas were our first headline group. I think we had 5k people in that small space!

Comment on Rockville Charter Forum Attracts Thoughtful Crowd by Brigitta

Max, if Mayor Marcuccio and Council Member Newton were invited and let you know they had conflicts, I believe it should have been stated. Sharing that information would help from appearing that they just didn’t show or were not invited. I was surprised they weren’t in attendance. I thank Joe Jordon for explaining why Mayor Marcuccio and Council Member Newton were not in attendance at the forum and that they were representing our City at other important meetings.
This charter review recommendations will come to the full City Council and will need direction from them.

This was a very interesting lecture about the community development of Twinbrook.

Comment on Rockville Charter Forum Attracts Thoughtful Crowd by Max van Balgooy

That’s an easy answer. There were many community leaders and former elected officials at the Forum, but I just wanted to note that Councilmembers Hall, Moore, and Pierzchala were present because the City Council is responsible for administering the City Charter, which was the topic of the Forum. I recognize that elected officials have very busy schedules and frequently have to choose which events to attend (and sometimes aren’t even able to choose, but are required to attend an event).
