The Rolando Community Council presents activities in the neighborhood through several committees, or “teams.” Each of our teams are organized and supported by volunteers who invest so much heart, passion, and time to make our community stronger everyday. See below for more information on each team and please CONTACT US if you have interest in becoming a volunteer for a team or upcoming event! Visit our COMMUNITY EVENTS page to see what events are coming up next!

  • Community Improvement Team (CIT): The improvement team organizes cleanups of our coveted CATWALKS, maintains The Triangle, organizes cleanups of Clay Park, hosts annual succulent swaps, and so much more!
  • Community Events Team (CET): The events team heads many of our social events for and programs for adults, our kids, and our families throughout the Rolando area including: the Rolando Night Out (meet your neighborhoods and support a local pub/wine bar/eatery), the Holiday Home Decorating Contest, Easter egg hunts in Clay park and much, much more!
  • Rolando Street Fair Committee: This group of dedicated volunteers organize and present our annual Street Fair! Learn more about our street fair and how to get involved by visiting the ROLANDO STREET FAIR page.
