Welcome to The Guide

Thursday, April 21, 2005; Page PW02

Prince William County can be a little bewildering for newcomers as well as for people who have lived here a long time. To help you navigate, we are back with another year of The Guide.

This special edition of Prince William Extra -- produced by a team of Washington Post editors, reporters, copy editors, editorial aides, office managers, photographers and artists -- provides a general guide to the Prince William area, including the cities of Manassas and Manassas Park and the towns of Dumfries, Haymarket, Occoquan and Quantico.

As large as The Post might seem to readers, there is never enough space to print everything. For example, religion is a big part of our community, but we did not have enough space to list every faith institution.

Many features that regularly appear in Prince William Extra can be seen today on www.washingtonpost.com/princewilliam. These features will resume in their regular spots in the April 28 issue.

We hope you enjoy The Guide and find it helpful. We welcome your suggestions and will be updating The Guide on washingtonpost.com/theguide as new information about the community becomes available.
