With
its rich and rural setting, Winchester-Frederick County is nestled between
the Blue Ridge and Shenandoah Mountains, in the beautiful Northern
Shenandoah Valley. Just 75 miles west of Washington DC, Winchester-Frederick
County possesses the charming and relaxing atmosphere of a smaller town,
making the area ideal for people who work in Washington and Northern
Virginia, but dislike the hassles and expenses of city life. Founded in
1744, Winchester is the oldest Virginia city west of the Blue Ridge
Mountains and has an extensive history that includes George Washington's
first successful bid for public office, the birthplace of country music star
Patsy Cline, numerous Civil War Battlefields and much, much more. Each
year Winchester-Frederick County hosts the Shenandoah Apple Blossom
Festival; a four-day celebration that includes a carnival, circus, dances,
concerts and the Grand Feature Parade. The Festival is nationally recognized
and has attracted many celebrities, including Lucille Ball, Bob Hope, Mary
Tyler Moore and many others. To learn more about the Winchester-Frederick
