Prince William is a special county, and on June 5th, our “Spring is for Hope” event is celebrating places and people that make our home what it is. Local artists will dazzle us with their talents and community leaders will share stories of places worth protecting from east to west.
Meet the people who are working to protect the resources that are the foundation of our community while enjoying music, good company, and more.

Progress has its eyes on the boundary of Prince William Forest Park.
The addition of new homes, retail space, and possibly a data center are being discussed for the area of Independent Hill.

“From threats to National Parks, and the Rural Crescent, to data centers and the existential threat of climate change, the Independent Hill Small Area Plan has issues of concern for everyone,” Prince William Conservation Alliance Director Kim Hosen tells Potomac Local News.
