Committee & Community Express Support for New Williamsburg Library 📚
The committee made its recommendation to Williamsburg City Council at council’s work session on Monday. The 50,000-square-foot library would replace the current 42,000-square-foot building near the Stryker Center and City Square Park. Construction is estimated to cost $26.1 million. Learn More

A Video With Our Partner - Experience the Course Below!

Just up the road from Williamsburg, discover Brickshire Golf Club, an 18-hole championship course designed to challenge and inspire. With five sets of tees ranging from 4,892 to 7,291 yards, it’s a rewarding experience for every level of golfer. Signature holes pay homage to legends like Augusta National and St. Andrews, while elevation changes and natural wetlands ensure no two holes play the same. After your round, unwind at The Brickshire Bar & Grille which overlooks the scenic 18th hole. Your unforgettable day starts here.

Visit their website to book a tee time or to check out the Grille’s menu.
