The Corporation of Shepherdstown's Town Council convened on March 12 to address pressing issues including volunteer board appointments and funding for essential Easter and spring events. Councilmember Shannon Thomas emphasized the importance of such events to support local businesses struggling during tough economic times. Despite budget shortfalls exacerbated by rising costs and community debates surrounding housing relocations on land donated by the late Jay Hurley, the council moved forward with plans for events like the spring parade, Easter egg hunt, and more, demonstrating a commitment to community engagement and support.
