The Sunday Current Events calendar incorrectly listed the day of the Butterfly Forays at Virginia Tech Horticulture Gardens. The forays are from noon to 1 p.m. Tuesdays, through August.
The wrong illustration was used in Saturday's New River Current with a story on the new Dublin Town Hall, on which a bid has been accepted for construction in the Dublin Town Center. Also, the square footage for a new post office planned for the Town Center is 23,000 to 24,000 square feet.
Pulaski County 10-year-old Summer Dunford was treated for cancer at Carilion Roanoke Community Hospital. A June 11 New River Current article about her incorrectly reported the hospital's name.
Clarifications
The New River Valley Habitat for Humanity, a nonprofit Christian housing ministry featured in the Applause column in Friday's New River Current, builds homes for families living in poverty or substandard housing who have the ability to pay a no-interest mortgage. Also, two more organizations have been added to the list of hosts for a group of volunteers building a Habitat house in Radford: Central United Methodist Church and Eleven West Inc.
Bill Watson, a property owner near the site for the planned Silvanway Apartments project, had dug test holes on his own property about 10 feet from those on the Silvanway site and said some of them retained water beyond the 48 hours such holes should dry out to meet drainage requirements. A story in Thursday's New River Current did not include that part of his statement made at a Pulaski County Planning Commission meeting.
