| Dear Friends, I want you to see this important announcement right away. The District of Columbia will be ordering everyone to shelter in place at 8pm tonight. This does not apply to people in Virginia, but I do want to emphasize that it’s crucial that everyone stay at home as much as possible. We all want to help, but just staying at home is helping…..a lot. Thank you, Libby SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT TO ALL ARLINGTON RESIDENTS Arlington County Government sent this bulletin at 03/25/2020 07:07 PM EDT Having trouble viewing this email? View it as a Web page.
