Overlea Community President’s Message

As the year winds down and the air turns crisp, it’s a good time to reflect on what makes Overlea special — neighbors who care for one another. Whether you’re checking in on someone, helping with a project, or sharing a smile, those small acts strengthen our community. I’m proud to share that the Hillendale/Overlea/Parkville Task Force has been hard at work with Sharon Kihn from the Chesapeake Gateway Chamber of Commerce and the Baltimore County Planning Department. Together, we’re moving forward on Community Improvement, Facade Improvement, and Commercial Revitalization grant projects that will make our neighborhoods shine. If you’d like to be part of this effort, please attend the Task Force meeting on January 28th. For details please email me at president@ overleaonline.org — your voice matters. The Farmers Market wrapped up another successful season, thanks to our wonderful vendors and volunteers.

And as we look ahead, we’re excited to gather again for the Holiday Tree Lighting. Bring the family for gifts, treats, and a visit from Mr. and Mrs. Claus. We’ll also be collecting food donations to support our neighbors in need. Let’s keep building the caring, connected Overlea we all love.

With gratitude,
Martin Nibali
President, Overlea Community Association
