The Salvation Army of the Virginia Peninsula recently kicked off spring at the Phoebus Dock Party and Sock Burning.

The event marks the start of boating season for the tidewater town and this year featured the grand opening of the new dinghy dock on the Hampton River.

The sock burning marks the start of spring, as the community sheds their winter clothing for warmer weather.

Neighbors took the motto, “Burn a Sock. Give a Sock.” to heart by donating 500 packages of socks to The Salvation Army.
