Hard work, endless hours, doubts, challenges, countless road trips…all worth it when the sounds of children screaming with joy, faces covered in the hues of the rainbow from snow cones eating, old friends who haven’t seen each other in decades laughing and hugging, teachers who saw their old students, good food, vendors, inquisitive minds engaged with exhibitors explaining their subject matter, beautifully-crafted Brookvale High School themed items…perfect weather under the threat of a storm; so much more for the May 17th Brookvale May Day.
The commemorative signage for the 1969 Brookvale High School Baseball State Championship Team will be properly recognized with their school colors of Blue and Orange to replace the incorrect Red and White of Lancaster High School; the two schools were part of the segregated school systems during that time.
Now the final piece; the dedication and awards program for the highway marker for Brookvale High School slated to be installed by and dedicated on October 4th, 2025.
None of this was possible without the aid of the citizens of The Northern Neck.
