Meet Jersey!
Jersey is a 4 year old female, hound mix. She’s a woman who knows what she wants, so obedience classes may be a good idea to continue her training and help her bond with her new family. She is very smart and eager to learn. She is a good listener, but still needs a family who is patient and willing to put in a little effort. Jersey loves to play and is good with kids and adults. Her energy makes her a perfect companion for an athletic family! She is good with other dogs. This hound is one smart cookie and is very outgoing. She is up-to-date on her shots and is spayed.

William Street will be closed from College Ave to Washington Ave. The sewer construction at William Street and Kenmore Ave will not impede race day.

Also remember to bring your own refreshments; some vendors will be on site for food and drink purchases. Sunday, June 13, 2010 will serve as a rain date.

Small town living is always interesting and Fredericksburg, Virginia is no exception. Fredericksburg will be holding its annual Christmas Parade this Saturday, December 5. However, something will be noticeably different during this year’s parade. There will be no candy thrown from floats or handed out to parade attendees. Turkey Hill will also not be allowed to hand out their traditional ice cream sandwiches. Why the change? Well, it appears that City Council and the Clean & Green Commission have decided that they would rather not deal with the litter that is left behind after the parade. So, if you or your family is expecting interaction from the floats, don’t hold your breath. Again, nothing can be passed out to parade attendees this year. NOTHING!
