We appreciate the professionalism of @HanoverVa Animal Protection and Shelter in responding to our Ashland store, and providing our Black Friday visitor with a sober ride home. 🚔 We value our local law enforcement partners across the Commonwealth.

🏈Going to a football game this weekend? 🏈 When tailgating, serve foods high in protein, such as cheeses and meats. They stay in the stomach longer and slow down the absorption rate of alcohol into the bloodstream. #SipResponsibly abc.virginia.gov/sip-respons…

Celebrating the game with multiple generations represented is a wonderful tradition! Keep the festivities going strong by setting a good example for young tailgaters. Never serve alcohol to those under 21. #SipResponsibly abc.virginia.gov/sip-respons…

On a solemn day 25 years ago, Virginia ABC agents rose to the occasion. Several groups of agents responded to the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. 14 Virginia ABC agents were recognized by then-governor Jim Gilmore and the ABC Board for their actions.
