MANASSAS — The seventh annual airshow being held at Manassas Regional Airport this Saturday has a new name, one that recognizes its largest sponsor: The 2018 Leaseweb Manassas Airshow.
That big sponsorship is good for the 15,000 to 20,000 spectators expected to attend the free show, which can only be seen on site.
The Manassas Symphony Orchestra will feature the talents of high and middle school students in its next concert at the Hylton Performing Arts Center.

MANASSAS — When people are seeking a service animal and vision impairment is the issue, Guiding Eyes for the Blind has been there since 1954, offering services free of charge.
The organization that has graduated over 7,000 guide dog teams is located in Yorktown Heights, New York. And while that might not seem local to the Prince William area, locals have gotten involved in raising exceptional dogs.
Two very different stories are being told this month at the Manassas Museum.
The first is about how the Boys and Girls Club has worked to make an impact on the city.
