Congressman A. Donald McEachin has announced the winners of the 2021 Congressional Art Competition in Virginia’s Fourth District.
The first-place winner is Emani Salas, a 10th grade student at Great Bridge High School in Chesapeake. Her pencil drawing, entitled “Littered Both Ways” will hang in the Capitol for one year.
Each spring, members of the U.S. House of Representatives sponsor a nation-wide high school arts competition. The Congressional Art Competition is an opportunity to recognize and encourage the artistic talent across the nation in each Congressional district. The winning entry from each district hangs in the U.S. Capitol for one year.
At the April 13 regular meeting of the Candor Town Board, Kelly Starkweather and Bob Riggs were on hand to discuss more about what is needed to keep the Candor EMS in service for Candorâs residents.Â
First Riggs reviewed what they had talked about with the board at previous meetings. One of the points reviewed is that the Town Board will work in good faith to negotiate a contract with Candor EMS for the needed funds for at least next year (2022) with the expectation that the contract can be signed in the next few months.Â
 Supervisor Bill Strosahl talked about a possible public hearing in the next month or two and a mailer going out to residents to better explain the situation.
Missing education DURING the current Covid crisis, concern has been raised over the effect of the precautions on children’s education. Those of us of a certain age may recall the situation in the early 1940s when teachers were in the Forces and rural schools, in particular, were deluged with evacuees. Temporary accommodation and interrupted/part time education affected children across the land. But, we survived and prepared a generation of children who grew up to successfully guide us all through an era of cultural and technical development the likes of which we had not seen before. So, if school closure will help with controlling the Covid virus or any other crisis, what is there to worry about?
