Kicking it with Fairwood Soccer

By Coach Lloyd Anderson

The Fairwood Soccer Team played their first official game on Saturday, July 19, at the Linden Walters Foundation Tournament. Though the team lost on penalty kicks in overtime, both the coach and parents were extremely proud of them -- especially considering they were playing against a more established team.

An intra-squad scrimmage is scheduled for Saturday, July 26, at the Fairwood Park. The game will be open to all kids ages 4-12 in the community. The Fairwood Community Association encourages all residents to come out and enjoy the fun.

Register for Fairwood's 6th Annual National Night Out!

Fairwood's 6th annual National Night Out will be held on Tuesday, August 5, from 7 p.m to 9 p.m., in the Sycamore Club parking lot. National Night Out is a unique crime/drug prevention event sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch.

NATIONAL NIGHT OUT is designed to:

• Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness;
• Generate support for, and participation in, local anti-crime programs;
• Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and
• Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

We will have food, drinks and games for the children as well as safety tips on how to stay safe in the community. Our local Fire, Police, Sheriff and Park Police will be on hand to answer any questions you might have about safety and crime prevention; and we hope to also have a very special helicopter static display as well.

As we always have a large turnout for this event we are again asking residents to RSVP and to pick up their wristbands NLT Friday, Aug. 1 at 3 p.m.. You can RSVP in person at the Sycamore Club or via email to Brooke Wilkins at brookewilkins@fairwoodcommunity.org 

Residents must be up to date with their HOA dues in order to participate and must RSVP to receive food and participate in the prize drawings.

We look forward to seeing you there!
