The Aurora Borealis lit up the skies over Floyd last night, painting a stunning color across the Blue Ridge. For those who missed it, there’s another chance to catch the magic tonight! Along with the possibility of seeing the northern lights again, the Northern Taurid meteor shower will reach its peak, bringing shooting stars and bright golden 'fireballs' streaking across the sky.
The Taurids are a slow but colorful meteor shower, caused by debris from Comet Encke, and are known for producing larger fragments than most other meteor showers. With very little light pollution and wide open skies, Floyd, VA offers the perfect place to look up and enjoy this rare celestial show. ✨

Join Floyd County Historical Society President, Gino Williams, on Oct. 18th at 10 am for a guided tour of the Jacksonville Burial Ground, a site known for its historical importance and its sweeping views of the region’s skyline. When the old Jacksonville Cemetery in town (located off South Locust Street) began to reach capacity in the early 1850s, J.P. Proffitt conveyed “2 acres and 36 poles” of land to Z.T. Dobyns and others to establish the new cemetery.
Participants will meet at the Gazebo, located near the highest point of the tract toward the front corner closest to town, to explore the Burial Ground’s history and learn about the lives of some of those laid to rest there. #VisitFloydVA #virginiaisforlovers #FloydVA #LoveVA #VA250
