ALEXANDRIA — Tickets are going fast for one of Alexandria’s most inspiring annual celebrations. Lyles will make history as the youngest person ever inducted into the prestigious Living Legends of Alexandria.
Lyles, a proud Alexandria City High School graduate (formerly T.C. Williams), returns home to join eleven other distinguished citizens being honored for their extraordinary contributions to the community. The event will take place at the George Washington Masonic Memorial, 101 Callahan Drive, beginning at 6 p.m. Guests are encouraged to arrive by 5:30–5:45 p.m. due to evening traffic.
