DELEGATE LANDES TO ANNOUNCED PLANS FOR ELECTION
VERONA – Del. R. Steven Landes, R-Weyers Cave, made three stops to announce his plans for the 2009 General Election for the House of Delegates on Saturday, May 23, 2009. Landes will be traveling to three different locations to highlight initiatives important to the 25th House District.
The first announcement was at 9:30 a.m. at the King Family Vineyards, 6550 Roseland Farm, in Crozet. The wine industry is of growing importance to tourism and our economy in Virginia, and the 25th District is an ideal location for the growing number of wineries within its boundaries.
The second announcement was at 11:15 a.m. at the Waynesboro Heritage Museum, 420 West Main Street, in Waynesboro. Museums, as well as performing and fine arts centers, continue to attract tourists to the Valley which help stimulate the economy.
The final announcement was at 1:30 p.m. at Cub Run Dairy, owned and operated by Gerald Heatwole, 3943 Lawyer Road, in McGaheysville. Cub Run Dairy has put into place agricultural best management practices (BMPs) which aid in keeping our water supply clean for all of us and future generations. The 25th District is a heavy agricultural community and agriculture is still Virginia’s #1 largest industry.
Landes represents the 25th House District, which includes the City of Waynesboro, and parts of Albemarle, Augusta and Rockingham Counties. Landes was first elected in 1995 and is now serving his seventh term.
