T-Bones has also been the meeting place for bikers from Maryland, West Virginia and Virginia on several occasions. Families often use her facility for birthday parties and baby showers. Recently, a family used her facility to raise funds for much-needed health care for their family member. T-Bones recently hosted a voter’s registration day.
Terry also drives the trolly for the African American Heritage Tour when requested by the Visitor’s Center.
If all this is not enough, Terry now has a food truck that you may see around town.
Terry Sloane is one of those people who make hard work and a full schedule look easy. Terry never meets a stranger and will always lend a helping hand to a neighbor.
Let’s send Terry Sloane and these qualities to Winchester City Council. She will work hard to make sure the voice of our beloved North is heard.
