Join the neighborhood for the 12th Annual Al & Sandy Snyder Home and Garden Tour. The self-guided tour showcases our unique Jefferson Manor properties. Have a smart home renovation, DIY project, or landscape inspiration to show? Show off your home, yard (or both!), it’s up to you. You pick what to show and what is off-limits. Just backyard, only kitchen, main floor, etc.
Contact info@jeffersonmanor.org to be added to the tour map.
The tour, hosted by the JMCA, was named for Al & Sandy Snyder in 2013. The Snyders bought their first home as newlyweds in Jefferson Manor in 1947. They raised their three children here and lived in the Manor until 2011.
The tour will start and end at 2803 Fairhaven Ave, Alexandria, VA. Join neighbors for an after-tour happy hour hosted by the Davis family at 2803 Fairhaven Ave.

More on NNO…
National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.
Millions of neighbors take part in National Night Out across thousands of communities from all fifty states, U.S. territories and military bases worldwide on the first Tuesday in August.
Join the neighborhood to celebrate the best community in Northern Virginia – Jefferson Manor! The JMCA neighborhood block party will be on September 29 on Monticello Road, near the intersection of Fairhaven Ave starting at 5:00 PM.
We’ll have a Biergarten (for those of age), kids games, catered food, our chili cook-off and pie contest, cornhole, and so much more! Come out to celebrate our community, get a Manor t-shirt, tote, or cup and have some fun! Volunteers and activity ideas needed and welcome.
Calling all kids! And kids at heart! Come to the park to show off your Halloween costumes, paint a pumpkin, and enjoy our Fall Potluck.
We’ll meet at Jefferson Manor Park from 11 AM to 1 PM.
Last names A-F can bring a main course (meat, pasta, casserole, soup/stew), G-N can bring a side dish (salad, veggie, bread), and O-Z can bring dessert. But if you have a recipe you love, go ahead and break the rules!
No requirement to bring food or drink to enjoy the fun. Don’t forget to wear your costume!
We hope you’ll join your neighbors in celebrating!
