WOODBRIDGE, Va. — Several members of the Prince William Chamber of Commerce have been named to the 2025–2026 Virginia Business Magazine Power List.
This prestigious honor reflects the caliber of leadership within our business community. Please join us in recognizing the following individuals for their exceptional contributions and well-deserved recognition:
MANASSAS, Va. — To honor the legacy of the courthouse square and bring our community together, residents of all ages are invited to attend an afternoon of celebration at the first-ever Courthouse Fair on the Square from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, November 8, 2025, at the Judicial Center, 9311 Lee Avenue, Manassas, VA 20110.
Courthouse squares have long served as a symbolic heart of American counties. Their design and evolution reflect centuries of civic tradition, from colonial governance to modern community identity.
FREDERICKSBURG, Va. — This year marks a milestone for one of Fredericksburg’s most iconic landmarks. Historic Kenmore, completed in 1775, turns 250 years old, and the community is invited to celebrate with a special Block Party on Saturday, September 27.
Kenmore has stood as a witness to the birth of a nation, the devastation of civil war, the march of modernization, and even natural disasters like hurricanes and earthquakes. Through it all, the House has endured—just as its stories have endured. As historian Philip J. Wertenbaker once said, “National history is based on local history.” Kenmore embodies that truth, linking Fredericksburg to the broader American story.
The purpose of the gathering is to nominate Democratic candidates for the following: County Supervisor (three Districts) and Constitutional Offices in Stafford County in the November 7, 2023, General Election –
Each person seeking to become the Democratic Nominee for the General Election for these County and Constitutional Offices must file a Declaration of Candidacy form with the Stafford County Democratic Committee Chair and pay a $100 nonrefundable fee to the Stafford County Democratic Committee, payable either by check or through ActBlue at http://secure.actblue.com/

About a mile and a half of the southbound I-95 right shoulder was converted to a travel lane between the ramp from southbound Route 123 and the ramp to westbound Prince William Parkway. The auxiliary lane aims to make it easier for drivers to merge into and out of traffic between the ramps. Southbound I-95 averages about 80,000 vehicles a day in this area.
“Our team is proud to provide transportation solutions for northern Virginia,” said Bill Cuttler, P.E., VDOT’s Northern Virginia Deputy District Engineer. “This auxiliary ramp will allow drivers to begin exiting one mile earlier, which will make a big difference for drivers caught in southbound congestion.”
Students from Stafford County high schools completed the Bringing Occupational Opportunities to Students (BOOTS) House 27 on May 5, 2023.
The house can be found at 125 Little Whim Road near Fredericksburg.
