Gloucester County Government TV Channel 48

TV 48 This is just to cool to not link. The Gloucester Government TV Channel 48 site. If you are on high speed Internet, you can stream this channel over your computer. Check it out. We just tested the site using the Firefox browser and it did not work. The site recommends using Internet Explorer. We will give you an update soon on how well the site works using IE.

  Update, because Gloucester, VA Gov uses Silver Light for it's videos, porting them over does not work very well with alternative browsers or Linux site servers.  We have had a number of problems with their videos.  Gloucester, VA Links and News.  GVLN Website.

Battle Of The Hook

Battle Of The Hook We highly recommend this site as one to visit for a major upcoming event. Billed as the nation's largest Revolutionary War Reenactment, this is a can not miss event. We have this on our calender of events that we will be posting as much as possible about after the event. One of the sponsors of this event is the Stagecoach Market a local Antique, flea and farmers market. Another site that we highly recommend that you visit. In the event you have no idea of what to expect at this market, please visit the site by clicking on the above link.

  The owners took down the main Battle of the Hook site a few months after the event.  In fact, most web sites that contained information about the battle are long gone.  You Tube has plenty of videos from the event including our own.  We have our own Battle of the Hook site up and the link is at the top of the page and on the right hand side bar.  Gloucester, VA Links and News.  GVLN Website.

Gloucester News Website

Gloucester News Here is an incredible news website just found. Between the Gloucester - Mathews Gazette Journal and this site, you will have the full perspective of all the local news going on in this area. Looks like we will be a regular user of this site ourselves. Very clean and well done.  Topix is the name of the news site.  They have some crazy posts from many local people.  Some fights are found here.  This is not an actual local site.  It's part of a national site with local feeds.

Gloucester VA, Antique Car Show Every Weekend

Every weekend there is an antique car show here in Gloucester. It's in the parking lot where the main Library is on Main Street, across from the DAV thrift shop. Everyone is welcome and there are no fees to see the vehicles. There is only a very small fee to enter in your own antique or classic car into the show. It's a fun time. I will be putting together a slide show very soon of one of these shows so you can get a much better idea of what a great event this is each week. I'll also have more details on the next posting.

  Some really cool antique cars can be found on display here.  Restaurants are located in the plaza here so if you do get hungry, it's a non issue.  Gloucester, VA Links and News.  GVLN Website.

Gloucester-Mathews Gazzette Journal Link

Gloucester - Mathews Gazette- Journal Here is the link to one of our local newspapers. I have met a number of the people who work at this paper and let me say, this is one of the nicest group of folks I have ever dealt with. Very polite and professional and a real joy to work with. I can't say enough nice things about them. They produce a great paper for the community and this link is to their on line version. Please give them a visit.

Update, the site is mostly a paid subscription site.  Don't know if it's really worth it.  I'd rather subscribe to the paper myself.  Even still, it's one of the best local papers we have ever seen for any community.  Gloucester, VA Links and News.  GVLN Website.

Gloucester County Fair Picture Slide Show

We decided to kick this site off with a slide show from the Gloucester County Fair that just ended Sunday, August 17th, 2008. 315 pictures total. We tried to capture as much of the fair as possible. It was a good time for the entire family. We will be covering as many events in the area as we can from this point forward, bringing you advanced information and news along with coverage of after the events and as many pictures as possible and when we can, we will even do video clips. Hope you enjoy this show, it's a long one.
