iCal
Members of Purcellville Boy Scout Troop 39, charted to Saint Peter’s Episcopal Church in Purcellville, struck upon a novel way of raising funds for their campouts and activities. The troop is sponsoring a LEGO fan event which has drawn the attention of top name LEGO related vendors and exhibitors from as far away as California. Scheduled for Saturday, May 4, 11am-5pm and Sunday, May 5 from 12-4pm at Heritage High School, 520 Evergreen Mills Road SE in Leesburg, VA. The Scouting for Bricks™ event is open to the public. Tickets are $5 per person and available only at the door.
Visitors will be treated to over 30,000 square feet of LEGO related exhibits and merchandise. The vendor Brixalot will have over 100,000 LEGO and DUPLO blocks affording visitors a hands-on opportunity to play and create. Additional exhibitors include the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area LEGO Train Club, Abbie Dabbles, Brick Brigade, Bricks 4 Kids, Classic Plastic Bricks, Clone Army Customs, Play-Well, Snapology, and The Great Adventure Lab. Ashburn Robotics will host a robotic scrimmage and the amazing Great Ball Contraption will be on display, while live Star Wars ‘Stormtroopers’ from the 501st Legion will be roaming the exhibit halls.
Senior Patrol Leader Vincent Escobar, age 17, remarked, “The boys in the troop are very excited about Scouting for Bricks™, we’ve spent a lot of time thinking of the coolest vendors and exhibits and its awesome that so many are participating.” When asked what sparked the idea for the brick fair, Troop 39 Scoutmaster Joseph Gleason stated, “Many of the boys in our troop are LEGO fanatics who frequently exhibit at and attend at regional brick fairs, so we got the idea of hosting our own as a way for the boys to earn funds to cover camping equipment and activities.”

Inova Loudoun Hospital hosts a free Stoke Survivors and Caregivers Support Group. The purpose of the support group is to provide a supportive and encouraging environment as a part of the stroke recovery process for those who are affected by stroke and their caregivers. The group will meet the second Wednesday of the month from 11 a.m. – noon at Inova Loudoun Hospital, 44045 Riverside Parkway, Leesburg in the second floor Patient Education Room. The next Stroke Survivors and Caregivers Support Group will be on Wednesday, March 13. At the March meeting there will be a nutritionist speaker offering insight about nutrition after a stroke.
Stroke is a “brain attack” cutting off vital oxygen and blood to parts of the brain that control everything we do. Every year, stroke affects nearly 800,000 people in the US. The survivors of stroke forever experience changes that can affect speaking, walking, memory, and thinking. The recovery process after a stroke is life long.

Support groups allow stroke survivors and caregivers to interact with others who understand the life changes that occur after stroke.
Participation is free and registration isn’t required. For further information, please contact Robyn Thomson at 703-858-6667 or robyn.thomson@inova.org.

I think the better words to describe the current so-called adults in power in Purcellville would be tagged as: Bully’s, Liar’s, Coward’s, and a word that best describes someone with no conscience and an empty black heart. (oops, one has to have a heart to have a black one) A child would see it best described as Grinch (a heart 3 sizes too small, and because he was unhappy, he enjoyed hurting others to try to make them unhappy)
Unfortuntate for Bob Lazero, Sam and Uta Brown have hearts 3 sizes too big, they resemble all that is historic, sustainable, and green in the world and they are kind, hard working, and faithful to actually producing something with their bare hands.
I am thankful to believe the teachings of the Bible that tell us “You will reap what you sow”…. Sad to imagine what the seeds sown by the town politicians will produce, certainly nothing good in the long term.
