On Saturday, April 18th, from 9am to 4pm, an area organization that supports women military veterans will team up with three elected officials to host a free Prince William County Veterans Resource & Job Fair. The event will be held at Ebenezer Baptist Church at 13020 Telegraph Road in Woodbridge.
The lead organization hosting the event will be Women Veterans Interactive, a nationally recognized not-for-profit organization that supports women veterans through various programs. U.S. Army veteran Tammi Lambert, a resident of Woodbridge and a Women Veterans Interactive member who deployed to Iraq while on active duty, has coordinated event planning efforts over the last several months.
Joining Lambert as a co-host will be Del. Richard L. Anderson (R-51st), a retired 30-year Air Force colonel and chairman of the General Assembly Military and Veterans Caucus. Del. Michael T. Futrell (D-2nd), whose district includes Quantico Marine Base, will also co-host the event. Dumfries Town Councilman Derrick Wood (D-Dumfries), a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, will also serve as a co-host for the job fair.

After 17 years as a teacher, Spotsylvania’s Leslie Robinson has learned how to make her students laugh. In almost two decades, Robinson has taught every grade level from pre-school to adult high school, and currently teachers High School Family and Consumer Sciences in Spotsylvania County Public Schools. She is also a popular social media content creator, with thousands of followers and views on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram.
Robinson said she loves bringing comedy into her classrooms, saying it helps students retain more information and also lets them find enjoyment in learning. Making the jump from the classroom to the public was a logical next step – Robinson said, “it only made sense to share that same energy and approach with fellow teachers.” Robinson honed her comedy skills in the classroom, saying, “Teenagers are the toughest audience out there,” and finding the ability to both connect with them and make them laugh is akin to “surviving ‘audience boot camp.'”Â
