December 29, 2019 by Wayne Creed 1 Comment

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Virginia is set to get its first female director of its state parks service.

Gov. Ralph Northam announced Friday that he’d hired Melissa Baker to oversee 38 state parks and more than 270 employees.

She will be the first woman to run the department in the park system’s 83-year history when she starts in January.

    This is not a comment with regard to the abilities, qualifications, or new direction our parks are about to take. Just 1 question. Is the council for boys and men in session and functioning yet ?
