Armour House & Gardens at Meadowview Park any good for weddings?

Does anyone have any experience with hosting a wedding ceremony and reception here? Are the Henrico county regulations for events manageable or frustrating to work around? It seems like it'd be an affordable venue option since I'm a resident but I've never reserved a parks and rec facility so don't know how well it would actually work out for a big event like a wedding. This would be for an outdoor wedding for fall 2027.

Varina resident received notification from Verizon that her home phone and Internet will need to change

Verizon sent notification to my parents that they are doing away with copper line based service. Parents currently have DSL Internet and plain old telephone service. I know that their current setup is a bit antiquated but it's all they need and they are not tech savvy. Internet speed doesn't mean much to them as they are very light Internet users.

They live near Strath Road and New Market. Can anyone suggest a simple solution for them? They want to keep a land line in the house. They want to keep their current phone number. The Verizon website is a bit confusing. Does Verizon offer solutions in order to keep basic Internet and land line? (Parents don't have a mobile phone and don't want one. "Too complicated".)

They also have Comcast/Xfinity as their cable provider. Do they offer a landline service?

I know that finding a solution should be as simple as looking at each company's website but it's not that easy.

Has anyone in the Varina area found a solution?

affordable joint/hip injections for senior cats in central VA?

looking for recommendations for kind vets that offer hip/joint injections for senior cats! we’re willing to drive up to an hour out (Charlottesville, Williamsburg/Yorktown, Fredericksburg, etc) but we really can’t spend a ton. our old guy is 17 and has finally started showing signs of pain and mobility issues :-(

we have been looking at over the counter supplements and such, but the prices have me thinking maybe we should just go for injections instead? we want him to get the absolute best care possible. I saw a general estimate of them being $75-125 a month (don’t know if that’s per shot or per visit, also don’t know if they need a shot in both hips each visit?), $125/mo is doable but definitely at the very top of our budget.

Merlin says thanks in advance 🩵🩵

Henrico Supervisor: If more residents speak out on the issue (Flock) then I think the needle can be moved.

Make your voices heard. Reach out to your supervisors and ask them where they stand on the issue. Speak at the board meetings. Make them go on record as to their support of them.

Question about Jury Duty Summons Letter for Henrico

I got a letter today about being summoned for jury duty. It says that there is a two month window where during that time frame I would potentially be called to serve. In the paper it said that usually it wasn’t more than four times during that period.

Does that mean I will be having to do jury duty more than once during that period? Has anyone had experience with this?

Edit: Thanks everyone for the information!

Got a wrecked car I want to junk, ant recommendations in Henrico?

I have a 2006 toyota prius already in pretty bad shape.My car got messed up with some engine misfires and it’s basically not worth fixing at this point. I’m looking to just get rid of it/junk it, preferably somewhere that will tow it away and maybe pay me something for it.
I’m in the Henrico/Richmond area. Anyone have recommendations for a legit junk car buyer, salvage yard, or towing company that won’t screw me over?
Would appreciate any firsthand experiences. Thanks!

Vera Whole Health recently opened in Short Pump - what is it? is it concierge model? direct primary care? Don't see any information on their website

I am looking for primary care, and I saw that this clinic opened right next to Trader Joe's in Short Pump. I am having a hard time understanding what it is and how it works. Does anyone have any experience with them? Is it like concierge care where you have to pay a fee for access? I searched online and on their website and I can't find any meaningful information.
