Enjoy Family Date Night at Lake of the Woods Clubhouse!

Take your family date night to the Lake of the Woods Clubhouse for some dinner & dancing!

Family nights are important! In a world filled with social media and technology, work and sports ruling everyone, our lives can appear busier than they probably are. Sometimes, we need to step back and remember what is most important to us, our family. There are many different ways families spend time together. I remember when I was in high school, we would always have dinner together, no phones, no TV, no distractions. This was a requirement, it was our “family time” and I miss those days now! While some have too hectic lives to be able to sit together every night for a meal, they have 1 day or two a week in which the family gathers. It might be to watch a movie, play some board games, or just have dinner and catch up on each other’s ever changing lives. Change up your family date night this February by joining the Lake of the Woods Clubhouse for dancing & dinner!

February 23rd from 6pm – 9pm (Doors open at 5:30pm) at the Lake of the Woods Clubhouse (102 Lake of the Woods Way, Locust Grove, VA 22508) there will be dinner from 6pm – 7pm followed with music by Xtreme Entertainment! It will be $5 per person with children under 5 being FREE! Prepaid tickets are required for the buffet dinner,so purchase your ticket, TODAY! There will also be a cash bar available throughout the evening.

You may purchase tickets Wednesday through Friday 9AM – 3PM and Saturday (Jan 26th and Feb 2nd) 10AM – 2PM at the Clubhouse office until the event is SOLD OUT. Cash or checks will be accepted and refunds will not be given. This $5 ticket is for dinner only, this event will be FREE for all AFTER 7PM!

Jessie will provide information on the department organization and structure, lakes management, road maintenance, and the general maintenance program of work slated for 2019. She will also be happy to answer questions regarding the CARC project.

Jessie has been with the Maintenance Department for ten years. She has served as the Director of Facilities since 2014. She started her career at LOWA as the Erosion and Sediment Inspector in 2008, having gotten to know many members during the process of mapping the water flow on all LOW properties. In December 2012, she took over as the Environmental Resources Manager (aka Lakes Manager).

Jessie earned her B.S. in Biology from Virginia Commonwealth University and began her working career monitoring ground water runoff from solid waste facilities. Growing up on a farm, she was introduced to construction through her father’s excavation business. Her interest in construction and environmental sciences was a natural choice.

Jessie manages with a results-oriented style, working with her staff to ensure the desired results are realized. She is proud of the spirit of cooperation among the Maintenance employees.
