We have a nomination for the elected board position of Neighborhood Representative. The bylaws state that the role of a Neighborhood Representative is as follows:
“The neighborhood representative shall be a resident of and represent either neighborhood if, after the election of the other four elected officers, such neighborhood is not otherwise represented by another elected officer.”
Patience MacCartney is a Riverview resident interested in becoming more involved in our community and has been nominated for the position. A special election will take place during our civic league meeting on March 13, 2023. If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch with Laura Burns at president@cprv.net.
We hope to see everyone at the February meeting! Make sure to sign up here!

Our November Civic League meeting brought together more than 30 neighbors at Kingdom Embassy Ministries for an evening of community updates, celebration, and connection. From welcoming new attendees and electing Riverview’s new representative, Terry Reading, to hearing from Brian N. Friedman on the future of Lambert’s Point Park, the night was filled with great energy and momentum. Residents also heard updates on neighborhood safety, upcoming social events, and exciting initiatives like the Pets of CPRV 2026 Calendar and Elizabeth River Project Shoreline Planting. As the holidays approach, CPRV continues to grow in both spirit and participation—thank you to everyone who helps make this neighborhood thrive!
The Colonial Place Riverview Civic League marked its sixth consecutive monthly Community Happy Hour on Wednesday, November 5th—this time at Perro Blanco, our neighborhood’s go-to Tequila & Mezcal spot.
What started as a fun idea from Artemis Stoll, our incredible Social Events Committee Chair, has blossomed into a monthly tradition that truly embodies the spirit of CPRV. Artemis envisioned these gatherings as a way to spotlight local businesses while giving neighbors a chance to connect, laugh, and build friendships—and she’s delivered in every way. Her dedication over the years has played a huge role in helping our community grow closer and more vibrant.
This month’s happy hour had it all—a lively lounge atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food, and a fantastic turnout. We saw new faces, familiar friends, and even neighbors who hadn’t been to an event in a while. From tacos and nachos to tequila and good conversation, it was the kind of evening that reminds us why we love calling CPRV home.
Next month, we’ll keep the fun rolling with our December Happy Hour at Fellini’s (date TBD). Follow us on social media for updates—and come raise a glass with your neighbors!
We love being your neighbor!
