MCV Dining Club is a group for senior residents in our Mill Creek Towne community. They dine out monthly and all senior residents are welcome. Most recently, the club members have enjoyed lunches at the Biscotti restaurant in Derwood, Boo Boo Pho in Montgomery Village, and Silver Diner in Gaithersburg. Since the club was initiated, the group has enjoyed eating at more than a dozen eating establishments. In November, we plan to have lunch at La Brasita in Derwood.

Socializing with others and averting isolation are important to one’s health and longevity. So, whether you live alone or not, you (and other seniors in your home) are invited to participate in the club and enjoy a good meal and some good neighborly camaraderie.

Village Board member Joe Ginther is the club coordinator, He informs potential participants about the monthly plans, receives their RSVPs, and then makes the necessary arrangements to ensure that the restaurant can accommodate everyone. The group has up to 19 attendees but typically draws 14-16 attendees. Joe also coordinates any carpools needed by those who in need of rides.

If you are one of our Mill Creek Towne seniors, aged 60 and older, who would enjoy breaking bread with other neighbors and making new friends, please contact us by email at mctvillage@gmail.com to share your interest. He will put you on the e-mail list to receive notices of upcoming dining club events.

Thanks, Joe looks forward to hearing from you!

Mark your calendars for our next event – our Pop Up Paint Party on Saturday, Nov. 7 @ 2:30pm. (NOTE: Space is limited to 20 people for this event.) Hope to see you there!

These folks not only enjoyed each other’s company, but also savory and sweet snacks including charcuterie, cheese, crackers, dips, fruit, hummus, and raspberry almond treats. There were also non-alcoholic beverages and a variety of delicious wines that attendees brought to share with their neighbors.

It was great to see some new faces. Thanks to our always hospitable hosts, to our Social Committee and to all those who joined us and helped make this 9th Mill Creek Village annual event another great success!

The Village is also grateful to our wonderful donors and business sponsors who help us put on these events and assist our elderly and disabled neighbors without charging the participants any fees or dues.

The Wine & Cheese Party was the final “official” event of the eight yearly events the village held in 2026 to promote a socially connected, caring community. We will be hosting a special “Pop Up” Paint Party on Saturday, November 7^th from 2:30pm to 4:30pm. We hope to see you then!

On Sunday, July 26th, over 100 neighbors of all ages enjoyed the annual Mill Creek Village (MCV) Ice Cream Social held on Potters Mill Court, one of Mill Creek Towne’s lovely cul-de-sacs. They enjoyed a variety of delicious Breyer’s ice cream flavors and toppings, as well as frozen fruit bars and Drumsticks. Many gleefully admitted that they went back for second and third helpings on a day when the temperature was in the mid-eighties. For this event, the Village raffled off Guest Passes for Two for the Pool’s 2026 Season. Five lucky neighbors won the guest passes – see pictures of the winners in our photo gallery.

As one of the nine free community events MCV hosts each year, our Ice Cream Social provides residents with a chance to meet and mingle with their neighbors, catch up with friends, make new acquaintances, and watch their children play safely with other children, all while savoring delightful cool treats on a summer afternoon.

Special thanks to Susana Castillo for coordinating the event as the Village’s Social Committee Chairperson, with help from Wendy Epstein, Anna McBain, Jon Solyst, and Pat Stone. Nancy Brady served as resident photographer and provided this event summary. Katie Becker organized a driveway/street chalk drawing activity for youngsters.

Please enjoy the Ice Cream Social photos below.

All leftover, unopened ice cream and toppings were donated to the Interfaith Works program based in Rockville, MD. Like the Village, Interfaith Works (IW) is a 501(c)(3) charitable, nonprofit organization. IW provides emergency shelter, supportive housing, essential needs, and employment programs to over 35,000 residents of Montgomery County, MD, every year.

The next Village event will be a new event for this year – MCV Game Night at the Pool, scheduled to be held at the Mill Creek Towne Swim Association – Home of the Marlins Pool on Wednesday, August 5, between 6:00 pm and 8:00 pm. Please mark your calendar now!

It was wonderful to welcome several new residents to the annual Mill Creek Village/MCTSA family pool party. They enjoyed their first visit to the local pool while socializing and getting to know their neighbors.

This was the third annual family pool party hosted by the Village and the positive response in each year has made this a popular event in the Village’s  annual calendar of community social activities.  Thanks so much to the Mill Creek Towne Swim Association – Home of the Marlins for sharing your facilities — a wonderful resource for our community! See below for event photos.
