Camp-bound

Kids are positively affected by camp–it’s just a fact. Valerie Catrow tells us how we can help send Richmond kids to camp, which is something I think we can all get behind.

An outstanding human

We kick off a series of six short interviews with some of the YWCA honorees for their 2016 Outstanding Women Awards. The first on my list: Margaret Nimmo Crowe from Voices for Virginia’s Children, a group that works to influence policy at the state level. And yes, I get to the bottom of whether or not she’s related to Russell Crowe. Don’t worry, I gotchu.

All of those markets!

It’s Farmers Market Time®! Stephanie Ganz rounds up all of the farmers markets around town, by days of the week. That means you can plan your entire week out and go to a market every single day except Friday, because we’re all too busy being at breweries then, I guess. You will want to bookmark this.

All of those ordinances!

City Council meets tonight! Here’s the highlights from their very long agenda, in real human language!

Your daily dose of intense anxiety

This is why I’d just give up and join the zombies. This woman totally agrees with me.
