MIDDLEBURG – With the snip of a pair of oversized scissors, the Pace Center for Girls Clay officially opened its doors Tuesday. Executive Director Genelle Thomas and Florida Sen. Jennifer Bradley performed the ceremonial ribbon-cutting, followed by a two-hour open house of the facility on College Drive that provides girls and young women an opportunity for a better future through education, counseling, training and advocacy. More than 100 supporters of the organization were treated to artwork created by current and former students.
