Welcome to our live blog for our coverage of the 23rd Annual Prince William / Manassas Boys and Girls Club Steak ‘N’ Stake Charity Dinner.
More than 400 people are expected to fill the gymnasium here the Manassas Club to pay tribute to the girls and boys who benefit from the club, local businesses who generously donate their time and money to the cause, and community members who help make the club – and their neighborhoods – a better place to live, learn, and play.
It’s just after 3 p.m. and crews are still working to put the finishing touches on the dinner tables, where those in attendance tonight will dine on a steak dinner.
Waiting for the participants is a booklet filled with information about the programs and work that is done here at the clubs, and a bottle of water to quench their thirst.
Hosting the program tonight will be Prince William County Potomac District School Board Representative Betty Covington, who also brought her humor to last year’s Steak ‘N’ Stake and got lots of laughs.
Doors are expected to open to the public at 6 p.m. to a silent auction, where attendees can see children Boys and Girls Club members interviewing other club members about their successes. PotomacLocal.com is shooting video of those interviews and will have them posted on our site following the event.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
