News: VivaLoudoun and Clarke County Sports Announce Media Partnership

(Aug. 30, 2010) – VivaLoudoun and Clarke County Sports announced today that they have entered into a media partnership aimed at broadening their coverage of high school sports in Loudoun County, Clarke County and the Winchester area.

As part of the media partnership some content will run on both VivaLoudoun.com and ClarkeCountySports.com and the two locally-owned media ventures will look to share resources wherever they can.

“I have known Moe for a long time and enjoyed in the past when he was able to provide content for our previous website,” said VivaLoudoun editor and founder Dan Sousa. “Now that we are entering year two of VivaLoudoun, it will help our coverage to be able to share the coverage Moe provides, especially since his coverage area is especially important come regional playoff time.”

Football: Beat the LoCo Experts - Week One Picks Revealed!

(Aug. 27, 2010) - We call this contest the Beat the LoCo Experts because, frankly, we must be a little crazy to reveal our picks prior to the football games on Friday but that is what VivaLoudoun Editor Dan Sousa, Loudoun Times-Mirror Editor Carl Lukat, Clarke County Sports Editor Moe Murphy and local football guru Jason Rufner all are doing!

You can enter your picks for each game by emailing to dan.sousa@vivaloudoun.com. One fan who has the most right (ties will be broken by drawing names out of a large coffee mug) each week will win a VivaLoudoun t-shirt (assuming they ever get printed) and at the end of the season, the fan with the most correct will win $100 donated by the VivaLoudoun Fox.

We would love for some other experts to join us but haven't heard back from them yet (cough cough **WashPost** cough cough).
