1st Victim of Hurricane Irene: Columbia Heights Day

The Columbia Heights Day festival, planned this Saturday from 10 am to 6 PM, has been canceled…at least partially due to weather concerns.
It saddens us to say, due to circumstances beyond our control, the 5th Annual Columbia Heights Day Festival is canceled,” shared Columbia Heights Day Initiative President Sergio Herrera in a written statement.  “Many of the companies and services that we rely on to present the festival are unable to perform their contracted duties for us, due to the potential of extreme weather.”
