Lake Anne Launches Good Neighbor Award, Ceremony Set For April 18

RESTON, VA — Lake Anne residents now have a new way to recognize the people who help shape daily life in the neighborhood. A newly launched Lake Anne Good Neighbor Award is seeking nominations for neighbors whose kindness, generosity and day-to-day support strengthen the community.

The award was created to celebrate “the people who make our community feel like home," according to a release. It is intended to honor neighbors who “live Bob’s vision and show up with kindness, lend a hand without being asked, and strengthen the unique spirit of our Neighborhood.”

The award is intended to recognize “the quiet helpers, the everyday problem-solvers, and the neighbors whose generosity uplifts us all," according to the release. It also calls the honor “a simple way to say: Thank you for making Lake Anne brighter, warmer, and better.”

Residents may nominate themselves or someone else through an online form. Nominations will close on April 7 and the award will be presented on April 18 at 11 a.m.

Supervisor Walter Alcorn (D-Hunter Mill) is scheduled to present the award. No additional details were provided about the selection process, how many people may be recognized, or whether the award will be presented annually.
