The Publishers Clearing House Prize Patrol stopped for flowers and to fix the balloons at Dillingham Square on Monday before swooping down on the home of Joan Geringer, a Lake Ridge resident who is now the recipient of $2,500 a week for the rest of her life.
“This is amazing,” said Geringer, after she answered the door. It was a complete surprise. There were contractors at her house redoing her bathroom, so Joan couldn’t hesitate. “I can now pay you,” she said, joking with the construction crew, and they told her now she needs to do the kitchen too.
The Prince William County Planning Commission on Wednesday recommended the approval of a new “Charlie Boone Memorial Skate Park” located near the intersection of Old Bridge and Smoketown roads. The 5.5-acre parcel will be addressed as 12490 Everest Peak Lane.
