The PLAYroom and Emmanuel Church partner to collect toys for Afghan refugee children


The PLAYroom and Emmanuel Church, both on Washington Street, Middleburg, have teamed up to welcome Afghan refugee families who have been living in Loudoun County since March by sending new toys for their children. In addition to donating toys to this drive, the PLAYroom at 108 W. Washington St. is offering a 10% discount on select toys. Emmanuel Church’s office at 104 E. Federal St. (behind the Parish House) is a drop-off site for those wishing to donate new toys for these children. Developmental toys are needed for children up to age 5; toys for children ages 5-10 are also needed. The National Conference Center in Lansdowne has been offering a safe haven to temporarily house Afghan evacuees as part of Operation Allies Welcome since March. Toys should be small enough to fit in suitcases to accompany children to their new homes throughout the United States.

Due to the upcoming Independence Day Holiday on Monday, July 4th, Middleburg’s refuse and recycling pickup will be delayed by one day and will now be collected on Thursday, July 7th, between 6 AM and 5 PM.

As a reminder...


The Town of Middleburg has been approached by two property owners interested in annexation of their land or portions of their land into the Town through a process formally called a “Boundary Line Adjustment.” Before taking any formal steps, the Town Council feels it is important to present the details of the proposals to the Middleburg community, get input and feedback from residents, and answer any questions. 

The Town Council held a Public Information Session on Tuesday, April 19, 2022. The video of the meeting is posted here.

The Mayor's presentation is provided here as a PDF file. We'd also encourage you to download the full PowerPoint presentation to see the animation of maps/graphics (requires Microsoft PowerPoint).
Maps presented in the presentation:
  • Current Town Boundaries with Existing Conservation Easements
  • Current Boundaries with Already Developed Areas and Pending Conservation Easements
  • Current Boundaries with Proposed BLAs and Proposed Easement Areas
We encourage public input. You may provide input by:

- Filling out the survey form on this page.
- Emailing the Town Clerk
- Calling us at 540-687-5152
- Attending a Town Council Meeting (2nd and 4th Tuesdays at 6pm) - there will be a special Public Comment time on each agenda for the next couple of months.
