Chevy Chase Donates $10,000 to Rosemary Hills

The Chevy Chase Town Council voted unanimously to donate $10,000 to help upgrade the playground at Rosemary Hills Elementary School, located in the town, at its meeting last week. According to the presentation made by a committee of parents, staff, and the principal, this funding brings the total amount raised to around $25,000. Hopefully, other municipalities in the school district will help them meet their goal of raising $40,000.

At the same meeting, Linna Barnes and Rob Enelow were sworn in for new terms by Town Clerk Andi Silverstone. The Town Council also elected new officers for the upcoming year. Mayor Linna Barnes, Vice Mayor Rob Enelow, and Community Liaison Mier Wolf will retain their posts while Kathy Strom and Lance Hoffman will swap. Kathy will now serve as Treasurer while Lance will serve as Secretary.

The Town will host a meeting on the Purple Line on June 6th at the Town Hall. After a presentation by MTA Project Director Mike Madden, town residents will have a chance to comment on the project. Speaking order in the comment period will be determined by numbers distributed starting at 6:30PM.
