Stoney Glen Subdivision held their annual 4th of July celebration, and, as a part of the festivities, the neighborhood children jump rope to raise money for a charitable donation of their choice. This year they raised money for one of their own Stoney Glen mothers who is battling colon cancer. This is the sixth year they have done the jump-rope-a-thon, and approximately 29 kids participated.
Schools open Sept. 8 — that is about 40 days from now. Is your child registered? Help your child have the best possible start to the new school year by registering now with Chesterfield County Public Schools.

Summer is moving right along – too fast. I am desperately trying to hold onto these last few weeks of summer, which has been one of the best summers we have had so far. My darling girl will be starting kindergarten in just a few short weeks. I just cannot get rid of the anxiety that is swirling around me like an invisible tornado. My sweet, little, angel-faced baby is going to big school, and a chapter in her life and mine will be closed forever. As parents, we get caught up in the day-to-day. We get up, fix the…
Haley Ford held a Grand Re-Opening Event last weekend during normal business hours to celebrate the renovation and upgrades to their showroom, service department and customer service lounge at 10724 Jefferson Davis Highway.

The renovation to the Haley Ford store (located at its original location on Jefferson Davis Highway) took about 10 months. The service lane was first and the showroom and customer waiting lounge soon followed. The result is…

Last Friday, we took a day trip to Nags Head. We staked our beach claim near Jeanette’s Pier close to the lifeguard stand. It was a beautiful day, with temperatures in the low- to mid-80s and a breeze off the ocean. Being close to the lifeguard station, we found ourselves in the midst of constant activity. Flying from the lifeguard stands were yellow flags that stated “Dangerous Currents.” The red four-wheelers that were used by the mobile lifeguards had a safety message on the back that read: “If in doubt, don’t go out.” There were crowds of people on this…
Hello and welcome back to the Dogpound where we are taking a sentimental journey down memory lane. They say the best way to ease the loss of a friend and/or loved one is to recount the good times you had together, and, by doing so, they will never seem to be very far way. One of the other cute things Max did when he was young, besides climbing out of the play pen, he would grab one of my socks out of the bedroom and sleep with it. He always liked to be in the same room with me, and…
