MANASSAS — Candlemakers aren’t welcome in the small four-space parking lot behind Shining Sol Candle Company.
Manassas police served the firm’s owner, Pete Evick, with a no-trespassing order this month that prohibits Evick from walking out of the back door of his shop at 9109 Center Street in Downtown Manassas onto the pavement behind the building. If he does, Evick could be prosecuted, according to the trespass order.

Bruce Gemmill of John Marshall Bank, states “CBN will recognize Debbie, Tony, John, Jim, and Mark with awards for the unselfish leadership each brings to their respective chambers. Every day, these CEOs instill in their staffs the importance all members bring to the chamber. They and their staffs go out of their way to bring value to each member, and they hold events to thank and award member individuals and businesses for their contributions to the chamber, business, and community. The Catholic Business Network felt it was important to turn the tables and give the proper recognition these five deserve.”
