Buckshot Finds A Family

Buckshot Finds A Family

Buckshot (left), a bluetick hound that had been a resident of the Rockbridge SPCA since June of 2022, found his forever home last week with Chris and Christina McKemy. The Rockbridge County couple is now a three-dog family as they adopted another dog, Alice, and already had a dog, Fred. Since Buckshot was featured in a recent article about the SPCA being filled to capacity with dogs and cats, four dogs and nine cats have been adopted and another nine dogs have gone to rescues. So far this year, the SPCA has taken in 339 cats and 217 dogs. 09/20/2023 12:00 AM

As summer gives way to fall this week, Glen Maury Park in Buena Vista continues to be a happening place. The refurbished and expanded campground is filling up to capacity with recreational vehicles driven by folks who are here for the 21st Nothin’ Fancy Music Festival being held Thursday, Friday and Saturday. With additional camp sites now in place, the park is likely to have the most campers it has ever had this weekend. 09/20/2023 12:00 AM
