BRISTOW – (Press Release) Bristow award-winning author Katherine Gotthardt, M.Ed. has announced a new project about an unusual local celebrity; a crane named “Steve.”

The crane, owned by Maryland-based Digging & Rigging, Inc. made a hit because of it shape that resembled a robot. Members of the Facebook group Western Prince William Chatter took photos, created memes and dubbed the crane “Steve.” Digging & Rigging, Inc. subsequently put a nametag on the crane, much to the amusement of not just the community, but the local and national news.

MANASSAS – (Press Release) The Creative and Performing Arts Center, Inc. (CAPAC) will bring an evening of musical delight to the Prince William County community and surrounding areas this summer.
