Recommendation and Review

The nation is celebrating the semi-quincentennial or 250th anniversary of the 1776 Declaration of Independence. Virginia has formed VA250 to prepare for and commemorate Virginia’s role in American Independence. VA250 requests all Cities and Counties approve a resolution showing their support and authorizing the formation of a local VA250 committee.
