Incident on the Lake On Saturday afternoon, November 28th, an injured Blue Heron was noticed by a home off of Clearwater Ct. Unable to fly, a wildlife rescue organization was called to take the bird and provide the needed care. Unfortunately, upon examining the bird it was discovered that the bird suffered a bullet wound through the wing and had to be euthanized. If you, or anyone you know has information about this incident, please contact the MPOA office (703) 670-6187 or email info@montclairva.com. All information can remain anonymous. We are working with local & state authorities from Prince William County Police Department and VA Department of Game and Inland Fisheries.

Fear and anxiety about a disease can be overwhelming and cause strong emotions in adults and children. Coping with stress will make you, the people you care about, and your community stronger. Everyone reacts differently to stressful situations. How you respond to the outbreak can depend on your background, the things that make you different from other people, and the community you live in.
