She didn’t let the cat out of the bag – or even let it take a peek around– but Arlington Committee of 100 chair Jeanne Broyhill has teased some changes that may be on the horizon for the venerable organization.

At the Committee of 100’s May meeting (highlighted by a County Board candidate forum), Broyhill highlighted a June 12 event that will both celebrate the arts and feature “a very special announcement . . . you won’t want to miss.”

The goal is to “take the Committee of 100 into the future,” Broyhill said.

Founded 70 years ago, the organization, like many, was upended by the pandemic. While pivoting to an online format and never missing a scheduled meeting, “we emerged slowly,” Broyhill said.

“It’s a different world,” she noted, and the organization has responded with a mix of in-person and online events.
