Is Ben Cline Selling Virginia's Chesapeake Bay to Texas?

Ben Cline's actions and votes upon this issue.. Critics claim this overfishing depletes Menhaden stock, a basic food source for many species, thereby triggering a "up the food chain" decline in all Chesapeake bay fisheries. $1,000 in...

News versus News from the Community
Understanding the difference between our "News" feature and "News from the Community.
News from the Community is intended to be an organized community "blog" which enables all registered users to submit and self approve for posting news and announcements on a variety of topics relevant to daily life in Rockbridge. That feature is unmoderated, thus registered users have the flexible ability to post news and announcements relative to the topic. Submissions to that category will be "pruned" after a reasonable period of time. We will, upon request, create a new topic category or subcategory for use by any Rockbridge neighborhood or community based organization so that members of that group may readily find and post news of their organization or neighborhood.

Theater at Lime Kiln (0.0)
in
Culture & Entertainment
Theater at Lime Kiln Today’s theatergoers may have difficulty imagining that until the early 1980’s, Theater at Lime Kiln was little more than a large hole in the ground with tumbled down stone walls: the picturesque ruins that were merely a dream of a gentleman named A. T Barclay. When Barclay died in 1915, the newspaper headline over his obituary read, “Another Civil War Veteran Gone.” Without the Civil War, Barclay might have been just another lawyer, and the perfect setting for an outdoor theater might never have been built. By his own account, when Barclay returned from the war after fighting alongside Stonewall Jackson and spending more than a year in a Yankee prison camp, his huge family farm just west of Lexington “had been run over, the fences destroyed and the stock run off.” Bec ...
