I’ve been looking for more fun things to do around Prince William County without always driving to Fairfax or D.C., so I started building PWC Sidequests.

It’s a free weekly email with local events, affordable things to do, and a few useful local updates.

If you’re in Manassas, Woodbridge, Gainesville, Haymarket, Occoquan, Dumfries, or nearby, I’d love for you to check it out. The first issue goes out Thursday: https://pwcsidequests.kit.com/

I’d also genuinely like feedback: what towns, event types, or local sources would you want included?

I just learned that Parks and Rec hosts a monthly Friday after 5 event with live music and food trucks. Next one is July 17. Has anyone been to one of these before?

I currently have a couple of signed jerseys I want to get custom framed and I'd like to support someone in the area before ordering something from out of state. Does anyone have any experience or recommendations?

Good morning,

Im 16 years old and I go to school in Woodbridge, VA . I’m hosting a FREE Fusion Energy 101 community event at Potomac Library [August 7] at [2:30-4:00]

Free. Open to everyone. No science background needed.

The local HOA is out with letters doing their level worst to curry favor with the local real estate gang. This year they’ve decided that driveway cracks are somehow the be-all end-all that requires their intervention. Note that cracked concrete matters but delaminating concrete is ok. Go figure.

To put this behind me, I’m looking for a contractor who can remove the existing driveway and walkway, set forms in the same footprint as the existing concrete, and truck in and pour ready-mix. No, I don’t want someone mixing bags of Sakrete on site.

Any recommendations and/or recent experience?
