Longwood University’s eighth annual Big Event, a campuswide community service project, was held on Saturday. The home of Barbara Covington, center, was one of many job sites around town where students did yard work and various other chores. “It helps a lot, especially if you do all the yard work yourself,” Covington said. Pictured with Covington are Longwood students Kaity Wright, left, and Sieraa Paasch. See more photos online at www.farmvilleherald.com.
