Monthly Meeting of The Gainesville Group

Join us at Taste of Asian for our monthly meeting.  This month the agenda will include a discussion of our upcoming forum on the recent housing market. We’re developing the format and preparing to invite speakers. We’re also looking for suggestions for future events, specifically issues of concern to the residents of Prince William County.

Second Heathcote Adopt-A-Highway Cleanup Coming

After months of cold and snow Spring has finally made an appearance!!  What goes better with the warm weather, the singing birds and the blooming tulips  than a nice walk on a lovely (I hope) Saturday MORNING?

The next clean up effort of our sponsored 2 miles is scheduled for 10 AM April 17th. Our section of Heathcote is from Route 29 to Old Carolina Road. All the equipment is provided all you have to do is show up and walk a bit.

The last time it took us about two hours to complete the entire section. It’s a good walk with great friends, and it serves a good cause as well so I hope you’ll come on out and join us.

Ky Convictions Question Reliability of Touch Screen Vote Machines!

Well worth the 2 minutes it takes to watch it.

Corey Stewart and the Coffee Party
