Boy, was it hot for the annual Rockbridge Community Festival Saturday. Luckily, there were several cooling stations available in downtown Lexington, which was once again filled with a variety of booths, including one selling witch hats.

Drainage Of Lake Raises Questions
Drainage Of Lake Raises Questions
Aug. 25, 2023 Editor, The News-Gazette: On a recent sweltering August day, I headed over to Goshen Pass to spend some time cooling down in Rockbridge County’s premier swimming pool.

Maury ‘Being Spoiled … To Benefit One Group’
Aug. 25, 2023 Editor, The News-Gazette: I have spent my summers in the same swimming hole on the Maury River since 1958 - upriver from the bridge in Rockbridge Baths. There was little change for the first 30 years: snails galore, turtles, frogs, tadpoles, healthy fish. The water was crystal clear. 08/30/2023 12:00 AM
