In the June 20 issue, you’ll see several places where we direct folks online for more photos or other coverage.

SPECIAL ONLINE EXTRAS:

* Photos of Lord Botetourt High School graduation

Parents: If you have graduation photos to share, you can send them to us at news@botetourtview.com.

Finally, whether you’re a graduate or not, our other invitation of the week applies to you: Tell us what you’re doing this summer. And now, back to the extras:

* Middle schoolers travel to Chespeake Bay for summer program
