CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) -- Chesterfield County's new mascot will make an appearance at the CarMax Tacky Light Run on Saturday.
State of the County at CTC @ Hull Wed. Dec 11,, 2024.
According to Chesterfield County, the new mascot -- Cole -- will make a special first-time appearance at the 2024 CarMax Tacky Light Run on Saturday, Dec. 14.
During Chesterfield's 275th Anniversary ceremony held this summer, residents were asked to choose from a list of potential mascots -- a chipmunk, a raccoon, a retriever or a bear.
After a few weeks of voting, residents selected the raccoon as the official county mascot.
Chesterfield County confirmed that Cole received his name due to the rich history of coal-mining in the county.
