This Week in Woodbridge

As the year winds down, the mood in town is understandably pensive. We know the coming months will bring big financial questions and important decisions — the kinds of choices that shape Woodbridge not just for next year, but for years ahead.

Yet even in uncertain times, one steady thread holds: the quiet, essential work of people who choose to stay engaged. Some step forward to serve on boards and commissions; others attend meetings, follow developments, or simply make the effort to stay informed. All of it matters.

This week’s stories highlight that quieter side of civic life — the early work of budget planning, the careful maintenance of our voter rolls, and a call for residents willing to lend their expertise to town service. These small acts of attention and participation are what keep our community strong — just as surely as it was kept by the men and women of Revolutionary days in our community, whose times we revisit in this week’s photo essay.

Rest assured, the Woodbridge Town Chronicle will be here to help keep you informed — your town, your news, straight to your inbox each Monday.
