This week on Tidewater Talk, we covered a mix of local news, seasonal updates, and Tidewater trivia. We talked about the USS Nimitz making its final visit before decommissioning in 2027 and reflected on how ships can take on a personality of their own for the people who served on them. We also highlighted Virginia’s tax-free weekend, including deals on school supplies, clothing, hurricane preparedness items, and select energy-efficient products, plus a fascinating ODU project: a remote-controlled tick-killing rover being tested to help reduce tick populations on local trails.
We also took a deep dive into one of the region’s strangest stories: Lake Drummond, the natural lake sitting high in the middle of the Great Dismal Swamp, known for its dark red tannin-stained water and rich local lore. To wrap things up, we shared this week’s weather outlook—hot, humid, and mostly dry after a slight midweek rain chance—and a roundup of local happenings, including Summer Bash at Mount Trashmore, the Boss Babe Market at COVA, the new free historical village on the Dismal Swamp Canal Trail, the Oceanfront Concert Series, Beach Blanket Cinema, The Wreck of the Dictator, and a free Celtic performance at Zeiders.
