Sperryville's Gateway Committee
organizational meeting a big success
The committee which originally started out as the Historic Sperryville Committee has, with the hard work of a group of citizens there, now evolved into the Gateway Committee. That committee had its first meeting last week to organize and solicit ideas from the community at large. About 30 people showed up for the meeting — a good turn out — to address the committee. With money being allotted for the project, community interest and the possibility of other grant monies to also - help fund village projects, things are looking up for Sperryville. The current face lift of the old schoolhouse by Faith - Mountain Company will soon be finished and the business will open its doors. That will also help stimulate the village economy. Much remains to be decided and done, but this weekend marks the dedication of the new historic marker for Sperryville. A small step along the road to becoming a historic Gateway community.
