Normally I refuse to acknowledge any sort of Christmas related activity until after Thanksgiving. #respectThanksgiving
For the FOURTH Annual Westover Hills PTA Christmas Tree & Wreath Sale I make an exception. Every year, they sell out of trees so they’ve increased their order this year by adding a number of Balsam Firs to our usual Frasier Firs.
The PTA takes some of the stress out of the holiday but working to get you beautiful trees and wreaths. You order online and the trees arrive on November 30th. Tree arrival day will include a celebration and a visit from that Santa dude. If you’ll be up to your mistletoe in holiday prep you can pay a little extra and the PTA will deliver the tree to your house.
All proceeds support the mission of the Westover Hills PTA.

Richmond Animal Care and Control Looking for Information on Dog Found in Dumpster
The dog was found in a dumpster at the Residences at Westover Hills (5852 Westower Drive). If you have an information please call 647-5573 or email [email protected]
We just don’t know what to say about this one. Swear words want to come out first…followed by tears…then back to bigger swear words. This sweet dog was found in this dumpster at the Residences at Westover Hills. No joke. Citizens saw him and called our team. Officer Jones removed him from the dumpster and took him straight to Virginia Veterinary Centers.
We named him Blue Skies. He’s 10 months old and was in terrible shape; starved, covered in feces, with open wounds on his body-our RACC Medical Pics closed group shows more (if you can handle graphic). We need your help finding the person responsible for his suffering. Please call 647-5573 or email [email protected] with information. Our hearts are breaking over the sweet spirit of this dog that deserves a chance at a better life. Please share-plus he will need a home-email if you can help with that too. #weareyourcityshelter#throwninthetrash#HelpUsHelpHim#ijustcantanymore
