Congratulations
June 30, 2010Congratulations, Hampshire County. What a great weekend!
First, kudos to Bruce Nicholson, Trina Cox, Dot Calvert, and all the other volunteers who helped with the second annual South Branch Valley Bluegrass Festival and Fireworks Show. It was fantastic! The weather was great (well, a little hot maybe), the food was good, the music was wonderful, and the fireworks were amazing! Charlie and I really enjoyed the evening. Greg Larry was there and will have video on our website later in the week. Also, you’ll want to check out Don Kesner’s photos as well.
Earlier on Saturday, Charlie and I played in the HHS Athletics Golf Tournament at Valley View Golf Course in Moorefield. We teed-off at 9 a.m. and our eightsome finished at 4 p.m. in near 100 degree heat. It may have been hot, and we may have been slightly sunburned, but, we had a great time. The tournament appeared to be a great success for the athletic department. Thanks to Kathy Sanders, the Leones, Megan Fuller, and all the volunteers who made this a great event.
Congratulations to Brenna Young of Romney. She was chosen Saturday as the first runner-up in the Miss West Virginia Outstanding Teen Competition. I believe that’s a first for Hampshire County.
Lots of other great activities and events are planned for the upcoming July 4th weekend in Hampshire. Check out this week’s issue of the Review for details.
Have a safe and happy 4th of July.
Take care.
