Downtown Colonial Beach (DCB) and the Town of Colonial Beach are partnering for another year of Sip N’ Stroll. In 2021, the Commonwealth of Virginia created legislation for Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area (DORA) licenses to qualifying organizations. A DORA license allows customers to sip alcoholic beverages (beer, wine, or cocktails) while strolling through a designated outdoor area within a specified timeframe. Alcohol must be purchased from ABC licensed establishments. Customers also may sip and stroll through other participating businesses that do not have ABC licenses located within the DORA Zone, such as retail stores and art galleries.
