December Delight: A Cozy Gathering of Cookies and Hot Chocolate was a wonderful success, bringing neighbors together for an afternoon of festive treats and community cheer. Residents gathered on December 13 from 1 PM to 3 PM to enjoy a relaxed Christmastime setting filled with conversation, laughter, and seasonal music. The come-and-go format made it easy for families and individuals to stop by, connect with neighbors, and soak in the holiday spirit. Guests were treated to complimentary cookies and hot chocolate, creating a cozy break in the middle of a busy season.
The event was proudly sponsored by The Advocacy Group, whose support helped make the gathering possible for all attendees. Residents expressed appreciation for the opportunity to slow down, enjoy refreshments, and feel more connected to their community.
With such strong participation and positive feedback, December Delight has set a great precedent for future holiday events in the District. The success of this gathering highlights the value of creating regular, low-pressure opportunities for neighbors to meet, mingle, and build community together.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by and to those who made the event possible.
