 From the President of the HOA Board of
Directors
As we head into fall, the board and management staff
are working diligently on preparing next year’s budget.
As always, we are trying to balance the requests from
the committees with the need to keep any increase in the
quarterly homeowner fees to a minimum. I encourage
all residents to talk with the committees and the board
on their expectations for services, events, etc. for the
upcoming year.
At the quarterly town hall meetings, the question about
“bond out” keeps coming up. I wish I had a definitive
answer for you, but I do not. However, the board has
taken the steps of formally requesting from Greenvest,
Cameron Station’s developer, their intentions, schedules,
etc. for Phases I, II and III. This letter went out in late
August, and hopefully by the time you are reading this
we will have had an answer. More to follow.
The Norfolk Southern ethanol issue continues its slow
process toward some type of resolution. The City of
Alexandria has legal action pending against Norfolk
Southern regarding its haul permits and a hearing
pending before the U.S. Surface Transportation Board.
The city has also prepared an emergency evacuation
plan for Cameron Station and Samuel Tucker Elementary
School. An emergency situation charrette is scheduled for
October 4 to test out the plan.
I encourage you to attend our monthly board meetings
on the fourth Tuesday of the month (third Tuesday in
November and December) at 7pm. The open forum for
residents is usually the second item on the agenda. We
welcome your attendance and comments.
John Sullivan

 Giving Thanks for Good Neighbors – The
Mark Pillow Award
By Robert Burns
Mark Pillow, who died suddenly in December 2005, was a
terrific neighbor – someone who embodied the community
spirit of Cameron Station and made it a better, brighter
place to live.
In memory of Mark, and to honor those residents who have
followed in his footsteps, the Common Area Committee
(CAC) instituted the “Mark Pillow Community Spirit
Award.” The first award, given in 2006, focused on
landscaping and on those who helped beautify the common
areas of the community, as Mark did so well. Kathy Price
was that year’s winner, and Denise Cantrell the runner-up
– Their handiwork can be seen in the gardens in Brenman
Park at the end of Somervelle Street.
In 2007, the scope of the award was expanded to honor a
resident who exemplified Mark’s special volunteerism…
someone who has made a lasting impact on the welfare and
spirit of our community through numerous contributions
and community building. Last year’s award was shared by
two residents, Marilyn Means and Pat Sugrue.
The CAC is now asking for nominations for the 2009 award.
Think about your good neighbors and how they add to
your quality of life.
There are those who help out the entire community – who
volunteer on committees, lend a hand at community events,
organize meetings and parties, serve on the board, work
The Year’s Most Important

Next year’s budget and the monthly assessment fees for

the opportunity to meet members of the HOA committees
and learn more about the committees and the important
work they do to improve the community.
More information on the Annual Meeting and Meet the
Candidates night will be sent to all occupying and absentee
homeowners. If you are interested in applying for one
of the open board positions, or would like to nominate
someone, please contact Community Manager Airielle

on the civic association—Cameron Station could not exist
without these dedicated volunteers, many of whom toil
year after year after year.
And there are those who help on a more personal level—
who feed and walk your pets, water your plants, pick up
your newspapers and mail, shovel your driveway, provide
rides to airports and doctors—the ordinary, day-to-day
neighborliness that can make such a difference.
How do you thank your neighbors for all they do? Nominate
them for The Mark Pillow Community Spirit Award.
NOMINATIONS MUST BE RECEIVED BY FRIDAY,
OCTOBER 10. Winners will be announced at the Annual
Meeting, Wednesday, November 12, and the winner’s name
will be added to the award plaque located in the Cameron
Club.
Nothing would make the CAC happier than to be inundated
with nominations. Please take a minute to think about
those neighbors who deserve some recognition and send
their names and a description of their contribution to our
community to commonarea@cameronstation.org.
Police to Enforce
Parking Policy
After receiving numerous complaints over lack of
parking enforcement, the Board of Directors has
reinstated parking enforcement by an off-duty
Alexandria police officer. This individual will
ticket those vehicles not authorized to park in the
community’s visitor parking spaces. Please note that
these are Cameron Station Community Association
(CSCA) tickets and NOT city parking tickets. The
CSCA parking policy states that owners are not
allowed to park in visitor parking areas in their own
phase. Any guest/visitor staying longer than 24 hours
must display the CSCA visitor parking sign placed on
their dash board. Guests/visitors who will be staying
less than 24 hours do not need to display the CSCA
visitor parking sign on their dashboard. CSCA visitor
parking signs are available, one per household, at the
front desk of the Cameron Club. A copy of the parking
policy is available for viewing and download on the
Cameron Station web site, www.cameronstation.org.

Adopt-a-Family for the Holidays
By Mindy Lyle
Once again, the Cameron Station community plans to help those less fortunate
have a Merry Christmas through the Adopt-a-Family holiday gift program.
Over the past eight years, Cameron Station residents have adopted more than
100 families from Samuel Tucker Elementary School, who without our help
might not have had any Christmas celebration.

Individual residents, groups of neighbors, committee members or entire streets

can join together to adopt an individual student, a couple of students, a family or
several families. Family needs are screened by the social worker and principal
at Tucker. Lists of needs -- some as basic as dishes and towels – are compiled by
the school, along with clothing sizes, shoe sizes, toy requests, etc. You can shop
for individual items, or if you want to help but don’t want to shop, gift cards are
also welcome.

If you are interested in helping to continue this wonderful holiday tradition,

please e-mail adopttuckerfamily@comcast.net. We will have more information
available in late October.

Mindy Lyle is a member of the HOA Board of Directors.

proprietor of L’Vida as well as a registered nurse, explains:
“I invited J.P. to work with our clients at L’Vida not only
because of his extensive experience and professionalism,
but also his intuition and his sympathy for those suffering
from chronic discomfort who have not always found relief in
western medical therapies.”

Zikrayet
By Carla Besosa
I have to tell you about Zikrayet, the new Lebanese restaurant
in the Carlyle complex! This place is so much fun that I have
dined there six times already, and it’s only been open a few
months!
Zikrayet (translation: memories) is the “new kid on the
block” in the scheme of Old Town restaurants. Folks are
just starting to discover Zikrayet, so now is the time to check
it out. The establishment is appealing on many levels: the
menu offers wide variety, the food is delicious and the
servers/bartenders/management are extremely personable.
You can dine on the umbrella-ed patio, weather permitting,
or sit inside where the décor is modern and the exterior
walls are glass, creating a very open feeling. The handsome
bar and lounge also provide additional seating. The music
varies: you may be treated to some smooth jazz or some
lively Arabic music.
540 John Carlyle Street • Alexandria, VA 22314
703-838-2008 • www.zikrayet.com
The appetizers (Cold Mezza & Hot Mezza) are always my
favorite part of any Lebanese fare. The Hommus is superb
and is offered in three varieties: plain, with roasted pine nuts
(my favorite!) and with meat. Their Grape Leaves are among
the best I’ve consumed. Their Cheese Rolls are scrumptious,
and the list goes on….You will also receive a complimentary
starter, which includes Olives, Labne (yogurt spread with
olive oil), Pickled Vegetables and Pita. Enticing soups and
salads are also offered.
For your entrée, you can select from a tasty variety of
shrimp, fish, chicken, beef, lamb or vegetarian dishes. I am
particularly attracted to the Shrimp Kabob—jumbo shrimp
(plenty of them!) marinated and grilled. The Chicken
Shawarma is also a favorite of mine—slices of marinated
chicken accompanied by a flavorful garlic paste. Most of
the main dishes are served with some of the best Basmati
Rice (with toasted almonds) I’ve tasted.

For you beer drinkers, the Almaza is a must. The wine
selection is inclusive and offers an impressive variety of
vintages by the bottle and by the glass. Check out their
list of specialty drinks as well. Friends who sampled the
homemade lemonade (made with orange blossom water)
proclaimed it to be the best ever!
Once you have completed your dinner, I recommend
adjourning to the lounge to order dessert (excellent Baklava
and Chocolate Fondant, among other fine selections),
experience the Lebanese Coffee and sample one of the many
varieties of Hookah. A Hookah is a water pipe that operates
by water filtration and indirect heat. Zikrayet offers a
selection of fruit flavors for your “puffing” enjoyment. High
on the list are the grape and apple variety. A novelty that
adds to total Zikrayet experience.
I can’t say enough about the staff. The folks at Zikrayet are
quick to greet you, helpful when ordering, efficient when
serving and quite generous when they feel you should
sample something other than what you have ordered.
Management is in the habit of interacting with the patrons
as well, which gives the experience an additional personal
touch. I will definitely return to Zikrayet, and everyone I
have taken there is anxious for an encore!
