Sunday Traffic Alert - East Bound Travelers on I-66!!

Please note, I-66 from Nutley Street to I-495 will be reduced to one lane beginning this Friday evening at 1900 hrs, through the weekend, due to Hot Lanes construction. Avoid the area if at all possible. Major traffic back ups expected.

From VDOT Website:
The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and its partners on the Capital Beltway HOT Lanes Project are working to spread the word about major construction activities and traffic impacts occurring this weekend (August 27-29) at I-66 East from Nutley Street to just past the Capital Beltway (I-495). To accommodate the completion and opening of two new bridges on I-66 East over the Beltway, the stretch of I-66 East from Exit 62, Nutley Street to I-495 will be reduced to just one lane the entire weekend. This closure will likely cause major traffic backups and delays.

We are doing extensive media outreach to get the word out to motorists about the upcoming impacts, so they can plan accordingly and take alternate routes. We are asking that you please distribute the attached press release and map to the appropriate people within your organizations, as well as your member organizations and stakeholders. This extended outreach is particularly important as we are working to inform long-distance, as well as local travelers.

Possible options for getting to the Beltway from points west:

1. Take 29 to 28, and then the Toll Road to the Beltway.
2. Take Route 7 to the Beltway.
3. Take 123 to the beltway.
4. If you live out west, avoid Route 66 at Nutley by getting off (go south) at the Fairfax County Parkway, the Route 50 exit , or Route 123 all to get to Route 29/50 to the Beltway.

			Westmister 2010 News, by Rosemary Miller This year’s Standard Schnauzer entry was unusually small. Only five dogs entered, and four showed. The judge couldn’t have made a bad decision, as he was faced with four excellent examples of our breed. Judge Dr. John A. Reeve–Newson took his time reviewing the three dogs and one bitch entered. In the end it was Zorro as best of breed (Ch. Pepper Tree Zorro V Morgenwald) owned by Penny Duffy and bred by Earl and Arden Holst. Michael Thomas, the junior handler that impressed everyone at our national was OS with Ch. County Clare’s Jewel of Beauty and Award of Merit went to Ch. Pepper Tree Apollo V Silverado owned by Judith Legan but also bred by Earl and Arden. Click for Video of Standard Schnauzer Judging
