Welcome Cardinal News readers! This is the second week of Roanoke Valley Field Notes, a collection of news and miscellaneous notes from the past week in the valley and a look ahead at what’s happening next week. Here’s last week’s edition if you missed it.
I primarily cover Roanoke, Roanoke County, Salem and Botetourt County — but those boundaries aren’t rigid when coverage is needed elsewhere. You can generally expect to see my column in your inbox on Thursdays.
There’s only one me, and there’s a lot of you in the valley, so news tips and feedback from readers are always appreciated. Email me at [email protected] to share your thoughts, ideas, questions and concerns with me!
