Dickenson County Board of Supervisors · August 26, 2026

Summary

The board established a new Dickenson County Parks & Recreation Advisory Committee and approved nine recommended appointees and alternates (covering school athletics, baseball/softball, football/cheer, soccer, facilities/finance/engineering, parks/trails, youth parent representation and at-large), enabling the county to pursue grants and facility work.

The Dickenson County Board of Supervisors confirmed the creation of a Parks & Recreation Advisory Committee and approved nine initial appointments spanning the county's recreational needs. County staff explained the bylaws require nine voting members and allow a county administrator or designee as a non‑voting member; the committee's duties include assessing outdoor recreational assets, facilities and grant opportunities.

Supervisors nominated and approved candidates for specific categories (e.g., Jolene Mogg for baseball/softball, Will Lester for football/cheer, Sean Edwards for soccer/basketball, Brandon Mullins for school athletics/facilities, and others) and appointed alternates where suggested. Board members said the committee will meet at least quarterly and initially more frequently as it establishes priorities and prepares to apply for grants to improve parks and recreation assets.
