With your membership, concerns can be raised "as one" to the Franconia District, Mount Vernon District and Fairfax County Boards. The more members that join the GCA, the stronger the "voice" of the GCA. Only dues paying members have an important voting voice for local projects. Together we can make a difference in the community.
The GCA would benefit from your active participation such as attending monthly meetings; participating in the Franconia District Walking Town Meeting; and being a member-at-large, GCA representative or on the GCA board. Your membership sends a message that you support the work of the civic association and helps active members be more effective. But, if you can't be active, your membership supports those who are.
The GCA supports local charities in the community, community events for the neighborhood, distributing newsletters and electronic news, the Groveton website, memberships in the local organizations that support civic groups, and the Fairfax County Federation of Civic Associations (FCFCA).
In the past, the GCA has supported the Storm Drain Initiative. Volunteers of the GCA walked the community and labeled the storm drains and distributed educational flyers to all of the households in the GCA boundary. The storm drains flow into our water ways and we need to keep them clear and open and non-toxic. For more information about the storm drains, hyperlink to: Storm Drain Initiative by GCA Volunteers.
