Engaging, Advocating, and Serving.
SBP Civic Association
The Civic Association normally meets on the 4th Tuesday of the month from 7:30 PM to 9PM on Zoom. The Board normally does not meet in August, November and December.
The Strathmore-Bel Pre Civic Association is chartered in the State of Maryland as a non-profit corporation. Its purpose is to promote effective communications within the Strathmore at Bel Pre community; to track developments within the county at large that might affect our neighborhood; and to sponsor community events such as the Annual Yard Sale and the 4th of July parade, field day, and picnic. The Civic Association also publishes The Bugle, a neighborhood newsletter. The Civic Association also coordinates a Summer Entertainment Series and the July 4th celebration.
Stay tuned to the Bugle, Listserv and SBP Pool Bulletin Board for the latest updates!
SBPCA Bus Lane Concerns and Request Statement
Our Request and Recommendation SBPCA recommends a review of the now-permanent bus lanes on Georgia Avenue. We hold the position that these bus lanes should not be made permanent in their current form. They should be more precisely tailored, focusing more on safety and ease of access for the frequent users of Georgia Avenue -- the folks who use the residential and commercial areas of Georgia Avenue.
