Eat at Harry’s to Benefit the Wilderness Food Pantry!

Monday, November 19th the clubs are partnering up with Harry’s Alehouse to help raise money for The Wilderness Food Pantry. The Wilderness Food Pantry provides food for those in need, especially during the holiday season, which can be a more difficult time for some residents due to various reasons. The LOW Lions & Lionness Club will receive 10% of all sales at Harry’s Alehouse from 4pm to closing at 9pm that Monday. Visiting Harry’s during that time on Monday is a fun and delicious way to help support your local community residents that may not be as fortunate. 
Feel free to spread the word – invite your family, friends and neighbors for a dinner and a drink over at Harry’s! 
Harry’s Alehouse is located: 5737 Plank Rd, (Harrison Crossing), Fredericksburg VA 22508.

Orange County Board of Supervisors Coming to Lake of the Woods Virginia

Board of Supervisors Coming to LOW

by Pat Licata, President

 
board of supervisorsThe Orange County Board of Supervisors is the main legislative body for the county and is comprised of five members who are elected by the voters of the county and serve four-year staggered terms.  Each November, a supervisors’ meeting is held in LOW to provide residents a convenient first-hand look at how their local government decisions are made.
The Board of Supervisors will conduct their regular business meeting on Wednesday, November 14th at 6:00 p.m. in the Great Hall at the Clubhouse.  Having a supervisors’ meeting in LOW is a tradition in part because the meetings are well attended.  In an effort to maintain that tradition, the Civic Club has elected to forgo its regular monthly meeting and encourage increased attendance at the supervisors’ meeting.
On November 14th the supervisors’ meeting will include a message from Cliff Wilks, President of Lake of the Woods Board of Directors, and a presentation of a working Draft of the Capital Improvement Program for FY2019 – FY2023.  Bryan David, our County Administrator, will report on the supervisors’ Two-Year Strategic Priorities and their Legislative Priorities for the next session of the Virginia General Assembly.
At 7:00 p.m. the supervisors will provide time to receive public comments. Anyone wishing to address the supervisors during the Public Comment must sign in on the forms that will be located on a table outside the Great Hall.  The forms will be submitted to the Chief Deputy Clerk, and speakers will be called in order.  After Public Comment, the supervisors will recess for dinner with the Lake of the Woods Board of Directors.
We look forward to seeing you at the Board of Supervisors meeting on November 14th. Before or after the meeting, consider having dinner at the Clubhouse.  The view of the lake from the Clubhouse is spectacular.
