Since the Rockbridge Symphony reactivated in 1999, rehearsals have been held (except for a brief period) in the band room of Maury River Middle School. The school principal and band director are gracious in sharing their space, and equally important, the use of essentials: music stands and percussion instruments, said a symphony spokesman.

Happy birthday wishes are being sent to Arlene Cunningham, Bential Groah and Keith Fields.

It was nice to be in the house of the Lord this past Sunday at Glasgow Baptist Church. Social distancing was practiced, families sat together, and every other pew was marked indicating which ones to sit in. There were about 25-30 in attendance, plus about 12-15 people in their cars in the parking lot listening on their radios. Some folks noted afterwards they had difficulty hearing on the radios. If you plan to attend and stay in your vehicles, remember to park on the entrance side of the parking lot, as close to the church as possible so the broadcast signal can reach you.
