The Old Town North Community Partnership is an organization comprised of residents, small, local businesses and employees working to create a vital, vibrant community within Old Town North.

We provide information to the community about events affecting the neighborhood through our website, e-newsletter and social media. In past years we have worked with the City of Alexandria on improvements to Montgomery Park and sponsored the Annual Taste of Old Town North and Dogtoberfest A Celebration of all things Dog…And Cat!.

Dogtoberfest A Celebration of all things Dog…And Cat!

We saw lots of dogs in costume and au natural, and many of them were “ready for their close-up“. Help us choose winners in several categories by clicking your choice of winning pups on our online contest at the Old Town North Community Partnership website.

The Dogtoberfest raffle raised funds for the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria. Prizes include a $50 Gift Card from Old Town School for Dogs, two $25 shopping sprees at the Old Town North Sunday Market, and a five-class pass for classes at River’s Edge Yoga and Movement Center. Raffle ticket sales will continue at the November 2nd, Sunday Market.
Winners of the Costume Contest will be announced on November 2nd, and winning raffle tickets will be drawn at the end of the November 2nd Market.
