COVINGTON, Va. (VR) - Thursday, June 18, Thirsty Thursday returns to the Jack Shack as the Covington Lumberjacks host a full night of baseball, community, and promotions. First pitch is set for 6:30 p.m.
Olde Town Covington is bringing the full effort for the night, highlighted by unheard-of $1 beer and soda specials throughout the ballpark. Fans are encouraged to arrive early, grab a seat, and kick off the weekend a day ahead of schedule while supporting the Jacks.
With the summer heat settling in, it appears it may finally be getting to Kester—pushing him to bring this special Thirsty Thursday promotion to the ballpark to help fans cool off and enjoy a midweek night out under the lights.
Hall of Fame sponsor Covington Moose Lodge No. 610 will be featured throughout the evening, with members invited to stick around after the game for a special meet-and-greet with the players.
Adding to the night, Pour Mare will be on-site with the ladies offering coffees and refreshers for fans throughout the game, giving a mix of cold drinks, hot coffee, and everything in between.
Between the $1 specials, community involvement, and a packed summer crowd expected, Thirsty Thursday is set to be one of the most energetic nights of the season at the Jack Shack as Covington looks to defend home turf and chase a win.

COVINGTON, Va. (VR) - The Covington VA250 Carnival wrapped up Saturday night with a boom — literally — as a spectacular fireworks display brought the three-day celebration to a close.
The event drew strong crowds throughout the weekend, with Saturday night attracting the largest attendance. Families and visitors filled the carnival grounds, enjoying rides, games, food vendors, and live entertainment. The atmosphere was filled with laughter, screams from thrill-seekers, and the aroma of classic carnival favorites.
The event was well received across the Alleghany Highlands, with many attendees suggesting it should become an annual tradition.
Saturday night's entertainment featured REO Survivor and Co., who delivered a high-energy performance at the amphitheater that kept music fans entertained throughout the evening.
The celebration concluded with a fireworks show that lasted nearly 20 minutes, lighting up the night sky and providing a memorable ending to the weekend festivities.
Covington Parks and Recreation Director Lisa Worley thanked the many volunteers, sponsors, organizations, and community members who helped make the event possible.
It had been a very long time since the Alleghany Highlands hosted an event of this size and scope. Thanks to the efforts of Worley and countless others behind the scenes, the VA250 Carnival proved to be a successful celebration and a fitting tribute as America approaches its 250th birthday.
