The Clarks Lodge Bar & Grill is coming to 12011 Snowden Farm Pkwy, the former site of GrillMarx in Clarksburg. The Clarks Lodge is owned by the same restaurant group behind The Creek Lodge, which opened at 5566 Norbeck Rd in October 2022, as well as Brews & Barrels in Gaithersburg’s Kentlands.
The menu is expected to be similar to that of The Creek Lodge and feature a selection of steaks, seafood, pasta, and a full bar. The restaurant is hoping to open in early February.

Northwest (6-0) at Churchill (5-1): Huge seeding battle in the 4A West and the teams involved should also pay mind to the Gburg-SV game. If Gaithersburg wins, the Trojans should be favored to win out the rest of the season finishing 8-1. Thus, assuming NW loses to QO next week, the loser of this game has a very real shot of falling down to the 4 seed and likely meeting QO Week 11. If Churchill pulls this off, suddenly the path to returning to the state reseeding just got a lot easier (obviously them beating NW would mean they have a clear path to advancing no matter what, but never bank on beating the Jags twice). Northwest hasn’t quite looked like their dominant selves the last couple weeks, they did start well against PB but cooled off and PB made it too close for comfort before the Jags got an insurance score. But Churchill hasn’t exactly fully played their best ball either the last couple weeks, and will need to come out swinging to pull this one off. This doesn’t look like a great matchup for the Dawgs as NW’s D-Line should limit Avit and Churchill’s pass defense is not great. Churchill will need to execute near-flawless in the passing game. Overall we think the Bulldogs keep it very close, but the Jags stay one step ahead in a classic. Prediction: Northwest by 8
Paint Branch (3-3) at Blake (6-0): Once Blake beat Sherwood, without a whole lot of quality opponents on the Bengals’ schedule many immediately turned their eyes to this matchup. Blake has only beaten PB 3 times in the last 20 years, and are on a 10-year losing streak. If there was any time to get back in the win column, it’s now as PB is reeling having not been able to put it all together against their quality foes. However, our gut doesn’t like Blake in this one. Chalk it up to the Panthers being more battle tested and showing signs of improvement against Northwest. Prediction: Paint Branch by 6

At the beginning of this year we let you know of MoCo’s largest rooftop solar project on multifamily property being underway at the Seneca Village apartment complex in Gaithersburg. Recently, a partnership between the Montgomery County Green Bank and Inclusive Prosperity Capital (IPC) was announced and will support the completion of a combined 1.97 MW rooftop solar array at Seneca Village, a 58-building, 684-unit affordable housing apartment complex.
Upon completion in fall 2023, the project will be the largest rooftop solar project on multifamily affordable housing in Montgomery County. The project was catalyzed by a $5 million financing from the Montgomery County Green Bank as the lead lender, and participations from NYCEEC and Virginia Community Capital to install new energy-efficient roofs throughout the complex. Inclusive Prosperity Capital provided a subsequent $2.5 million loan to support the installation of the rooftop solar arrays. This marks the first transaction in which IPC and the Montgomery County Green Bank have partnered.
