Weaving together the tongue-twisting tales of Dr. Seuss is no small feat, especially not when you throw singing into the mix. But Woodbridge Senior High School’s Theater Department tackled the challenge this weekend with their presentation of “Seussical: The Musical”.
Set in the various backdrops of Seuss’ beloved tales, “Seussical” takes the audience on a journey of combined stories, woven into a more cohesive tale, and teach them that individuality and creative thinking are to be valued, even when others don’t recognize it.
Woodbridge, Va. — The first four pitches at last week’s baseball game at C.D. Hylton High School vs. Gar Field Senior High School didn’t quite cross home plate, but the crowd cheered enthusiastically for each one.

The expo originally began as a service of the Prince William County Park Authority but was eventually dropped due to budgetary restrictions, shared Park Authority representatives.

Gov. Robert F. McDonnell vetoed the redistricting plan, and officials have said it is the first time in 40 years that a redistricting plan put forth by the Senate did not receive bi-partisan support.
The governor says the plan does not comply with state and federal laws, and that it could not pass mandates set forth in the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
Wilmington, Del. –– Steven Souza’s red-hot bat very nearly led the Potomac Nationals to a victory in their first road game of the season, but the bullpen betrayed the P-Nats in a 5-4 set back in Wilmington.
Souza’s second triple of the season in the sixth inning cleared the bases and staked the P-Nats to a 4-1 lead, but Potomac’s relief pitchers surrendered four runs in the seventh and the Blue Rocks held on to win their home opener in front of a capacity crowd on a chilly Friday night.
