@richmondfreepressusa is reporting that @enrichmondfoundation “may have collapsed. The Free Press has been told that the Enrichmond Foundation’s board has resigned without notice or replacement and that the foundation’s treasury may have been depleted. A source described the situation as ‘a real mess.’” The board president, J. David Young, declined to comment, and the erstwhile executive director, John Sydnor, could apparently not be reached.
Adults and kids were just about to scream for the promised ice cream when the Go Go truck finally arrived. Volunteers old and new had already put in almost three hours of work during Woodland’s workday. The Jones trio—Carrington and Jadari, and grandmother Alice—were working in a number of family plots toward the front, not far from a weed-whacking crew. Farther into the cemetery, Kiri was gathering branches, loading them into the back of Gus’s stroller, and then offloading everything (except Gus) at the brush pile. Young Walter and Leo supervised until Teacake lured them away to play ball and to meet Rog. We all took a break to sample the bomb pops, slushies, and ice cream sandwiches. (The Minion bar was an especially popular item with the eight-and-under set.) A pretty great way to spend Juneteenth.
