WOODBRIDGE, Va. — The place where the Potomac Nationals play, Richard G. Pfitzner Stadium, was packed on Saturday for the Prince William Community Expo.
An estimated 15,000 people, adults and children, came out to celebrate the expo’s second year. More than 100 community organizations and businesses participated in the event. A rock climbing wall, bicycle courses, and a live music stage were just some of the events offered at the expo.
Put on in 2012 by the Prince William Chamber of Commerce, Prince William County Public Schools this year took over organizing and executing the expo.
“The event could not have been successful without the support from volunteers, sponsors, Prince William County Public Schools, SPARK, the Education Foundation for PWCS, Prince William County Parks and Recreation, and the generosity of the Potomac Nationals for allowing the event to be held at Pfitzner Stadium as well as PWC Parks and Recreation for use of their grounds and hard working employees,” said Brittany Hoffman, who helped to organize the expo.
The following organizations also supported the event:
ED OUT partners
PWC Healthy Communities?Healthy Youth
PWCS Health and Physical Education
PWC Parks and Recreation
Hylton Foundation
SPARK
Education Foundation for PWCS
Potomac Nationals
Potomac Local News also helped to sponsor the event.
