After a few weeks of R&R, the Discovery Publications staff is back
to getting things in order to share with our readers. If you've been
doing the same, keep it up! Here are two businesses that can help
you along the way.
Avid gardeners will tell you that taking care of your lawn and garden
is much easier if you have the right tools. Although the busy spring
season is past, perhaps your lawn mower and other equipment needs
some tender loving care to ensure it fi nishes out the remaining tasks
of summer and fall. If you're not sure, don't worry! The experts at F&J
Small Engine Repair are ready to advise you.
Owner John Pennington explains that F&J Small Engine sells, repairs,
and services a variety of small equipment, including lawnmowers,
tractors, chainsaws, and rototillers as well as leaf and snow blowers.
The business offers a variety of top-quality brands, such as Toro,
Snapper, Exmark, Echo, Billygoat, Echo Bearcat, and BE Powerwashers.
They also sell parts for 18 different well-known and respected brands.
If you already have the equipment you need, it's important to maintain
them properly to keep them in top working condition. Just as a car
needs periodic maintenance, so do smaller engines. Luckily, the
knowledgeable staff can provide necessary maintenance and repair
services for the brands of equipment they sell and many others too.
To learn more, call (703) 335-2740.
Putting things in order is all well and good, but let's throw some
fun into the mix too! You won't want to miss the 68th annual Prince
William County Fair, which will be held from August 1119 at the
Prince William County Fairgrounds. This is the largest county
fair in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and attracts up to 100,000
people annually!
You can count on all your favorite fair activities, including of course
all the agricultural exhibits in the barns--lots of cows, sheep, goats,
chickens, rabbits, and more. Plenty of 4-H volunteers will be on
hand for kids' activities too. Check out the home arts exhibits with
competitions in fl owers, photography, baked goods, and more. Head
to the grandstand for various shows--demolition derbies, tractor pulls,
a rodeo, and monster trucks!
If you're looking for something new, check out knockerballs (or "bubble
soccer" as it's sometimes called)--single-chamber infl atable spheres
that allow people to roll into each other without causing any stress
on the body. There's something for everyone at the fair! Admission
tickets can be purchased in advance or online, and range from $6
(children and seniors) to $10 (adults), with children under age 4 and
active military admitted for free. Half-Price Night is on August 14, and
Ladies' Night (free for women) is August 16. Advance ticket purchase
discounts are also available. To learn more, call (703) 368-0173 or
visit www.pwcfair.com.
Get Things in Order!
