On November 25th Small Business Saturday, The Riverview Inn partnered with Colonial Beach Community Heart & Soul (CH&S) for pictures with Santa for ~15 families. Prior to visiting Santa, the children made oyster decorations that were put on the Christmas Tree in the courtyard and filled out their list to give to Santa. Volunteer Ted Saffos in his jolly Santa attire brought smiles and joy to all. Food donations were accepted to support the local food banks.
Partnering with CH&S is so important with the growth in Colonial Beach. We are a community of Retirees, Young Families, Multi-generational families, small businesses and so much more. CH&S is a wonderful program designed to shape the future of communities by reaching out to all residents to improve, create and strengthen the social, cultural and economic vibrancy.
I am proud to be a part of Colonial Beach which is a diverse community with a deep history that dates to our 1st President George Washington and 5th President James Monroe.
