From the Town Manager’s Desk: Dear Colonial Beach Community, After a winter filled with chilly temperatures, brisk winds, and frosty mornings, spring is finally making its way back to town! The change of season brings fresh energy—outdoor events are picking up, spring sports are in full swing, and the Potomac is calling boaters back to the water. Our local restaurants are extending their hours, and we’re thrilled to welcome back Sip N’ Stroll for its third consecutive year! While there’s something comforting about cozy winter days, the excitement of spring is a welcome shift. Here at Town Hall, we remain hard at work—answering your questions, fulfilling Council initiatives, and making progress on projects that matter to our community. We encourage you to step outside, enjoy the warmer days, and join us at one of the many upcoming events. It’s the perfect time to reconnect with neighbors and celebrate the season together. See you around town! Natasha Tucker, MBA/JD
