📰 News we're reading
• Broadway to be third Virginia town to stop fluoridating water (wvtf.org) — Timberville was the first Shenandoah Valley town to stop adding fluoride to its drinking water, a move now followed by Luray and Broadway, which ends fluoridation August 1. Local officials cite cost, equipment concerns, and personal choice, while health experts and some residents argue fluoridation safely prevents tooth decay, especially for people with limited access to dental care.
