Weekly YouTube show dives into various issues, sites and events in the Page Valley
By Randy Arrington
LURAY, Sept. 10 — This week we turn our focus to local politics as we host a series of three candidate forums for contested races in this fall’s election, starting with the race for the District 5 seat on the Page County School Board. We sit down with candidates Ana Maria Mendez and Charlie Queen Jr. to talk about their qualifications for the office and their views on key issues facing the local school division.
(Page Valley Livin’ ~ Episode 85 was recorded Monday, Sept. 8, and aired Wednesday, Sept. 10, 2025).
Coming up on Page Valley Livin’… we’ll be taking a three-week hiatus from our normal musings while Page Valley News conducts three candidate forums for contested elections this fall, including the race for the District 5 School Board seat, District 1 supervisor, and the chairman of the Board of Supervisors.
The aim and purpose of these videos is to provide more information about more things that make up the wonderful place we call the Page Valley of Virginia. Serious issues will be handled seriously, while lighter issues may offer more opportunity to have some fun. There is no theme or agenda other than promoting the Page Valley, and trying to better inform the people who both live here and those who love to visit.
