Summer Concerts and a Petting Zoo

Tuesday July 28, 2015

From Summer Concerts to a Petting Zoo, the Mount Vernon Triangle is celebrating summer with the community. Tunes in the Triangle returned on Thursday July 23rd with Andrea Pais (soul/pop) at lunchtime at 5th & K and Alison Carney (soul/R&B) in the evening (6-8 pm) at Milian Park at 5th & Mass Ave. Then, on Saturday, July 25th we hosted a petting zoo from the Leesburg Animal Park. Residents and visitors played with bunnies, baby chicks and ducks and a baby goat or sheep at the MVT FRESHFARM Market from 10 till noon at 5th & K Streets, NW

Earlier in July, we held our 2nd Annual MVT Dog Day, where dogs and their owners tried agility equipment and socialized together. The obstacle course was guided by trainer Jessica from Anytime K9 and demonstrated by rescue pit bull, Blue. Anytime K9 also donated a certificate for a free group training class, given away in a raffle at the event. Wagtime was on hand with free goody bags and our four-legged friends enjoyed house made dog biscuits courtesy of Roberto Donna at Alba Osteria.
