WJLA-TV: “7News hosted a Your Voice, Your Vote on Virginia’s 7th Congressional District Debate Tuesday, Sept. 24.
We invited Republican Derrick Anderson and Democratic candidate Eugene Vindman to the debate. Anderson is the only one who accepted.
You can watch the debate on our YouTube page. Anchor Scott Thuman and Reporter Nick Minock talked to the candidate about both national and local issues — including the economy, immigration and abortion.
They also discussed issues that matter to residents of Prince William, Stafford and Spotsylvania counties.”
Ashlee Waldbauer returns to the Riverside stage with a show-stealing performance as Carole King. Her rendition of "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" melts the audience and reminds us why King’s music continues to resonate across generations. Waldbaur, who also starred in Riverside's spring production of They’re Playing Our Song, showcases an ability to channel the emotional depth and vulnerability that made King’s music timeless.
Another Riverside veteran, Zachary Spafford, brings powerhouse vocals to his portrayal of characters like one of the Righteous Brothers, delivering a stunning performance of “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling.” Audiences will remember Spafford from his standout role as Frankie Valli in Riverside’s acclaimed production of Jersey Boys earlier this year, and his talent for hitting those high notes remains an undeniable highlight of the show.

The Fredericksburg Nationals (FredNats) are one win away from claiming the North Divisional Championship as they take on the Kannapolis Cannonballers (North Carolina) in Game 2 of the best-of-three series tonight, Tuesday, September 17, 2024, at Virginia Credit Union Stadium.

After securing a 6-4 win on the road in Game 1, the FredNats return home to try and finish the series with a victory.
