Backyard Concert RESCHEDULED to August 15th, 7pm
The neighborhood backyard concert originally scheduled for tomorrow night has been RESCHEDULED to Thursday, August 15, 7pm, in the backyard of 1011 Little High Street.
Sumner & Herb will open with a short sing along and will be followed by Playing for Fun, a group of 10 talented musicians (some of whom are professionals) who gather each week at the home of Sudi Durland. This group plays everything from traditional to country to classic rock on guitar, bass, flute, harmonica and fiddle.
This event is FREE and open to the public. As always, we will pass the hat for donations to help support the Haven, the multi-resource day shelter downtown (112 West Market Street).
Our neighborhood raised $678 (not bad!) at our first two concerts of the summer. We have a chance to surpass any of our previous summer concert efforts (begun in 2020) if we can keep this momentum going.
Play Music on the Porch Day
Play Music on the Porch Day is an international effort involving people from more than 70 countries willing to step outside and play music on August 31, 2024. The idea is that we should all stop, play and / or listen to music, and be a part of something fun. This annual event has been going for at least 10 years. Check out the Play Music on the Porch website for more information. Check out the promotional video below from 2018 .
City Trash Decal Reminder
The following is copied from a City of Charlottesville “news flash” dated 7/24/24:
The City of Charlottesville would like to remind residents who utilize an annual trash decal that the new decal year began July 1st. Residents who use an annual trash decal for weekly trash service, and have not purchased a new 2024-2025 trash decal, are encouraged to purchase a new one as soon as possible to avoid any disruption in trash pickup service. Residents who have purchased a new decal since June 1st and have not received it in the mail should reach out to the City Treasurer’s Office to obtain a replacement.
The City offers a variety depending on can size, including 32, 50, 64, and 96 gallon decals. They can be purchased in person in the lobby of City Hall at 605 E Main Street, by mail using an order form via mail, or online through the City’s miscellaneous payments portal. Information regarding annual trash decals or individual trash stickers, as well as a printable order form, can be found on the City’s Trash, Recycling, and Leaf Collection page or by emailing the City Treasurer’s Office at citytreas@charlottesville.gov.

The Little High Neighborhood Association is hosting a backyard neighborhood concert TOMORROW (Thursday, July 11) at 7pm in the backyard of 1107 East Jefferson Street.
This event is FREE.
EVERYONE in or out of the neighborhood is invited. Passports, birth certificates, photo ID, and major credit cards are NOT required. The turnstiles will be open starting at 6:30pm. The music will start promptly at 7pm. The lights at all our concerts run on solar power — i.e., we have to wrap up when the sun goes down which is why we don’t host jam bands.
