The summer is flying away, but I won’t complain because we’ve been hitting record-high temperatures. With the end of summer approaching, orientations, open houses, and more fun school festivities are about to take over the Fredericksburg area. This also means the upcoming VA sales tax free weekend, August 5-7, for school supplies (and, believe it or not, hurricane preparedness supplies, too). Items that fall under the sales tax exemption include clothing, footwear, hurricane and emergency items, Energy Star, and WaterSense. These qualified items can be purchased online, by mail, or over the phone.
