McLean Community Dialogue Set For Sept. 29
The annual McLean "community connections dialogue" will be held Sept. 29 at the McLean Community Center, officials have announced. The theme for this year's dialogue is, "When values and principles are at stake, do we give up community harmony?"
Participants from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds will break out into small groups of nine, each with a facilitator. McLean Community Connects, a committee of McLean and Great Falls residents representing various religious and ethnic groups, is sponsoring the event. The time is 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. The center is at 1234 Ingleside Ave. Reservations are required. For more information, call 703-324-3453 or send an e-mail to mscot4@fairfaxcounty.gov.

I've read this posting several times, and I keep coming back to one question: "Huh?"
"When values and principles are at stake, do we give up community harmony?" What does this mean? Were examples provided to put this into context? Who is paying for this? If it's Fairfax County or small district taxpayers, perhaps we ought to question how we can fund this fuzzy stuff when we have homeless people in Fairfax County, our stormwater systems are in disarray, and our school children are educated in trailers.
