Resiliency is the ability to bounce back in the face of adversity. The Champion Zone is a revitalization project that is dedicated to the achievement of community resiliency in the Arlington area. Since 2007, it has initiated programs and strategies that unify, equip and mobilize a broad array of organizations to improve the lives of families and create positive sustainable change for the schools, businesses and other organizations in Arlington. To celebrate accomplishments and rally to expand partnerships, the Arlington Community Celebration invites you to join a coalition of over 45 local agencies that are committed to improving the lives of families and creating positive sustainable change for the schools, businesses and others.

This event will bring together residents, organizations, schools, businesses, community leaders and the media to feature programs and services that impact Arlington in meaningful ways. Tree Hill Nature Center has a beautiful outdoor amphitheater where participating organizations will hold productions throughout the day. Surrounding the amphitheater will be specific areas that spotlight organizations and resources that address key issues like:

Education & Lifelong Learning * Financial Recovery & Job Placement * Crisis Prevention & Intervention *Safety & Security

Health & Fitness * Environment Responsibility & Preservation * Social Connectivity * Spiritual Healing & Purpose

Browse the star line up through the Program Itinerary link above to get a flavor of what you and your family can enjoy on November 6th. Win prizes throughout the day, enjoy a Taste of Arlington through local chef participation and enjoy the Arlington Chef Competition through the Terry Parker's Culinary Academy cook off, network with friends and neighbors, and leverage resources for you and your family.
