  Agreed to by the Senate, February 4, 2021   WHEREAS, in 1995, an area encompassing all or part of five counties in the northern Virginia Piedmont and the lower Shenandoah Valley was designated as the John Singleton Mosby Heritage Area in recognition of the area’s role during the Civil War as a staging area for the 43rd Battalion, Virginia Cavalry, also known as Mosby’s Raiders;

and WHEREAS, the John Singleton Mosby Heritage Area Association was created to preserve the beautiful natural landscape of the area and interpret historical sites and events throughout the area;

and WHEREAS, as part of the 25th anniversary celebration of the creation of the John Singleton Mosby Heritage Area, the John Singleton Mosby Heritage Area Association changed its name to the Virginia Piedmont Heritage Area Association to better reflect the organization’s mission to promote not only Civil War history, but also the broader heritage of the region;

and WHEREAS, the Virginia Piedmont Heritage Area Association strives to cultivate a deeper understanding of the region’s past, from Native American settlements through the 21st century, and to promote the area’s unique cultural and natural resources;

and WHEREAS, the Virginia Piedmont Heritage Area Association offers adult education classes to stimulate thought-provoking, constructive discourse on numerous topics and provide scholarly context of local history;

and WHEREAS, the Virginia Piedmont Heritage Area Association has also partnered with other local organizations to develop the Piedmont Crossroads project, a comprehensive study of the region’s past 500 years;

and WHEREAS, through the leadership of its 18-member board of directors and three full-time staff members, the Virginia Piedmont Heritage Area Association has allowed countless Virginians to benefit from the many historic, cultural, educational, and natural resources in the area;

now, therefore, be it RESOLVED by the Senate of Virginia, That the Virginia Piedmont Heritage Area, formerly the John Singleton Mosby Heritage Area, be commended on the adoption of its new name;

and, be it RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the Senate prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to Jennifer Moore, president of the Virginia Piedmont Heritage Area Association, as an expression of the Senate of Virginia’s admiration for the association’s work to preserve the history and heritage of the Commonwealth.
