Article Icon 1Fairgrounds Future in Flux

The future of the Warren County Fairgrounds remains unsettled after a proposed $4.25 million sale to Lebanon collapsed amid legal uncertainty, political disputes, and public resistance to redevelopment plans.

Warren County entered negotiations in 2025, but officials split over whether state law permitted the sale and how the 94-acre property should be used. Lebanon’s proposal included townhomes, commercial space, redesigned parkland, a new horse arena, and upgraded campgrounds.

The aging grounds have accumulated code violations and have been at the center of years of strained relations, but volunteers have been replacing structures and gutters, repainting the property, and restoring a historic mural.

The 2026 county fair runs today through Saturday, featuring 4-H exhibits, harness racing, rides, live music, a rodeo, tractor pulls, and a demolition derby.

Article Icon 1Third Eye Sets Championship Records

Hamilton’s Third Eye Brewing captured the 2026 U.S. Open Beer Championship’s Grand National Champion title and set a competition record with five gold medals.

The brewery won nine medals overall: five gold, two silver, and two bronze. The haul tied the single-year record for total medals.

Third Eye’s gold-medal beers were Mocha Operandi, Double Astral, Unleashed Potential, and two versions of Kelly’s Private Stash Barley Wine. The official championship results spanned more than 180 categories and subcategories, with breweries entering from across the United States and abroad.

The victory marked Third Eye’s second overall championship in the event’s 18-year history. Rhinegeist Brewery placed sixth nationally, while several Stark County breweries also earned medals or division honors.

Article Icon 1Hilltop Estate Hits Market

A hilltop Cincinnati estate with sweeping Ohio River Valley views has hit the market for $3.25 million, placing it among Greater Cincinnati’s most expensive active listings.

The six-bedroom, nine-bathroom home spans 12,373 square feet on 10.64 wooded acres in the California neighborhood, about 10 minutes from downtown. Built in 1962, the residence is being offered for the first time since a major renovation and 6,500-square-foot addition in 2001.

Features include four fireplaces, a chef’s kitchen, a heated in-ground pool, a hot tub, and a three-level stone terrace. The property also offers garage space for up to 10 vehicles, plus a detached building with a heated detailing bay and workshop.

The property listing includes 90 photos showing the estate’s stone-column gate, tree-lined drive, private terraces, and expansive river-valley views.

Article Icon 1Prince William Co. Confronts 50K Feral Cats

Prince William County supervisors voted 7-1 to expand a trap-neuter-vaccinate-release program aimed at a feral cat population that now tops 50,000.

The July 14 directive lets the county pay outside animal welfare groups to spay and neuter cats alongside its own Animal Services Center, which Woodbridge Supervisor Jeannie LaCroix said “is not able to hold them all right now.”

The county’s 2027 budget covers about 600 cats a year, and the measure redirects up to $48,000 in existing, unspent county funds to boost that capacity through outside partners.

The vote came as animal officers in Henrico, near Richmond, warned of a confirmed outbreak of feline parvovirus in one neighborhood. Officers seized several sick cats from a home on July 18 and urged residents to keep their pets’ vaccinations up to date.

Article Icon 1Court Weighs VT Board Removal

A Montgomery County judge will decide whether Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s May removal of Virginia Tech Board of Visitors member John Rocovich broke state law.

Rocovich, one of the longest-serving members in the school’s history, sued in June to win back his seat, arguing the governor had no cause to oust him a year before his term ended. Her removal letter cited “misconduct” but never detailed what he did wrong.

State law lets a governor remove a university board member for “malfeasance, misfeasance, incompetence, or gross neglect of duty,” and requires a public explanation. Rocovich’s attorney says none of that applies.

Rocovich had donated to Spanberger’s Republican rival, Winsome Earle-Sears. No hearing has been set.

Article Icon 1Virginia 4th-Best State to Move to

Virginia ranked as the fourth-best state to move to in 2026, according to a new ConsumerAffairs analysis.

The ranking scored all 50 states on affordability, safety, education and health care, economic strength, and quality of life. Virginia’s composite of 62.37 trailed only New Hampshire, Utah, and Idaho, with New England states dominating the top 10.

The showing aligns with a separate report this month from CNBC, which ranked Virginia third in its annual “top states for business” rankings and second in infrastructure.

Gov. Abigail Spanberger credited new laws on housing, health care, and energy costs.
