Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates Announces Collaboration
CAAR Real Estate Weekly | celebrating 20 years 1992-2012
Lindsay Milby
Christine Lisle
By multiplying its brokerage leadership by the power of three at a time in which many real estate firms are contracting, Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates is ensuring the firm’s continued market leadership. On October 15, 2012 Lindsay Milby of Sloan Milby Real Estate Partners and Christine Lisle of the White Coat Real Estate Team will join Loring Woodriff as Principles of Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates. As owners of three established, successful real estate businesses looking to the future, Lindsay, Christine and Loring will combine forces to maintain and strengthen their leadership in the local residential real estate marketplace. The name of the new company will remain Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates, a respected brand associated with uncompromised excellence. On November 1st, the company will move to 401 Park Street, an historic building at the corner of Park and East High Street. “It’s rare in this business, particularly in these times,” Woodriff said, “to find three professionals at the top of their respective games who want to change gears in order to create a dynamic new brand. Individually,
we have each enjoyed tremendous success in local residential brokerage. We are not joining forces out of need, but rather out of a mutual desire to pursue excellence through our shared core values and expertise: integrity-driven negotiation skills, unmatched client service and retention and distinctive, results-oriented marketing.” Since opening her firm in 2006, Loring Woodriff has been one of Charlottesville/Albemarle’s leading brokers, building a distinctive brand along the way. Her background in advertising, investment banking and publishing no doubt contribute to
For more information on this dynamic new collaboration, contact Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates at 434-977-4005.
Senior Center Celebrates Purchase of Property for Future Site at Belvedere Senior Center supporters gathered on October 9 at the site of the organization’s future home in the Belvedere neighborhood. Generous gifts, pledges, and matching gifts from individuals, businesses, and organizations enabled the Center, which has never received government funding and operates on a self-supporting, nonprofit business model—to secure the $2.4 property. This purchase is the first step toward building a transformational center designed to meet one of the major public health challenges facing communities across the country. In the Charlottesville area, the senior population is projected to double,
which will continue to operate as the Senior Center until the new facility is completed. Construction of the new 60,000-square-foot facility is expected to begin in 2015, with doors opening in opening in late 2016. Remarks by Mary Reese, Senior Center Board of Directors and Campaign Vice Chair; Peter Thompson, Executive Director; and Dawn Heneberry, Campaign Chair, were followed by a display of the site plan, conceptual rendering s of the new building, and a look at the staked-out property. The Senior Center positively impacts our community by creating opportunities for healthy aging through social engagement, physical well-being, civic involvement, creativity, and lifelong learning in an affordable, accessible setting. This independent, nonprofit organization—the first nationally-accredited senior center in Virginia—has a vision of creating a community that understands and embraces the power of healthy aging to positively transform lives. For more about the Center, its 50-plus years of service, and its role as a community resource, please call 434.974.7756 or visit SeniorCenterInc.org.

The Senior Center already meets a vital need, providing the type of holistic wellness programming that research proves promotes longer, more productive and independent lives. The planned new facility will support efforts to provide this broad spectrum of programs and services in the face of booming community need. “The Center at Belvedere” is the name chosen to designate and differentiate this future facility from the existing one at 1180 Pepsi Place,
Arts Fusion (Alzheimer’s Association CWVA) and the Fralin Museum of Art, UVA will host Eyes on Art, at the Fralin Museum, 155 Rugby Road, Charlottesville, on Thursday, October 18th at 2:30 p.m. And then on Wednesday, October 24 at 10:00 a.m., the Alzheimer’s Association CWVA and the Arts Center in Orange will host Arts Fusion, at the Arts Center in Orange.

Virginia:
a
Colorful
Destination By Joanne DiMaggio
CAAR Real Estate Weekly | celebrating 20 years 1992-2012
Each sEason
is special in Virginia, but the time of year everyone covets is the fall. With over 15 million acres of foliage, 2,500 miles of scenic drives, fall weather that’s both crisp and gentle—all within a day’s drive or less for 60 percent of the U.s. population—it’s no wonder that Virginia is a popular autumn destination. While there are many views worth noting, some of the most spectacular are along the appalachian Trail, the shenandoah national Park, the Blue Ridge Parkway and the skyline Drive. Virginia is home to one fourth (544 miles) of the appalachian Trail—more than any other state. one hundred and one of those miles lie in shenandoah national Park and skyline Drive. The central portion of the appalachian Trail follows the Blue Ridge Parkway to Roanoke. Key sites along the way include George Washington and Jefferson national Forest in Bed-
ford count y. Pe a k s of otter in Bedford county has the Peaks of otter Lodge and plenty of spectacular scenery. The southern portion of the appalachian Trail travels westerly through the George Washington and Jefferson national Forest. Key sites include Big Walker Lookout, a 100-foot tower to view scenery; Mount Rogers national Recreation area offering many campgrounds; Mount Rogers, the highest peak in Virginia; and the Mount Rogers scenic Byway. a gradual change in foliage conditions can be seen in the western part of the state, generally at higher elevations, with a lower percentage of fall color at the lower elevations. Patchy color changes exist among tree species such as poplars, sweet gum, dogwood and maple. at this time, peak colors are expected in the mountains during mid
to late october; the Piedmont and coastal Plain are expected to peak between late october and mid-november. Weekly fall foliage reports are available at www.virginia.org/Fall or by calling 1-800-424-LoVE.
Shenandoah National Park shenandoah national Park, considered one of the most beautiful places in the world, has 500 miles of trails, including 100 miles of the ap-
palachian Trail. The Park covers the crest of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains for over 75 miles. Park Ranger programs are both educational and entertaining. For those who want to spend the night, camping is available. Modern facilities at skyland Resort and Big Meadows Lodge fill the needs of visitors who don’t want to rough it. Full-service restaurants are at skyland and Big Meadows plus there are “waysides” with lighter food. Due to the park’s size and its varying degrees of elevations, the national Park service says it is impossible to pick a “peak date” for the entire park. Based on past years, however, the colors of fall are predictably at their most brilliant between the 2nd and 3rd weeks of october.
Skyline Drive The skyline Drive is a national scenic Byway that runs 105 miles along the crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains, starting in the north of the shenandoah Valley at Front Royal to Waynesboro, where it meets the Blue Ridge Parkway. over two million people visit the skyline Drive each year. since fall is the most popular time to travel, expect quite a bit of company on the highway. If you’re in a hurry, the skyline Drive is not for you as the speed limit is only 35mph and is strictly enforced. Expect a non-stop drive to last at least three hours on a clear day. Traveling from one of the four entrances to the next exit takes about an hour, so plan on doing as many as your schedule allows. If you plan on taking photos or just want to get out and stretch your legs, there are 75 overlooks on to the Blue Ridge where you can take in the beauty of colorful forests, farmlands and orchards on either side.

Most Parkway facilities are “Wheelchair Useable.” Some facilities have minor slope and/or structural barriers. Gasoline is not available on the Parkway, but is available not far off the Parkway at many highway intersections Rangers and volunteers present a variety of interpretive programs through October. These are given on weekends and occasionally on weekdays. Activities include campfire talks, music and history demonstrations, nature walks and slide presentations. Schedules are posted at visitor centers, campground entrances and Parkway concessions. Something else to consider is that Virginia is the only state through which both national bicycle routes, U.S. 1 and U.S. 76, pass. There are 838 miles of the two routes in Virginia, making it one of the favorite destinations of bicyclists.

The entrance to the Blue Ridge Parkway begins at Rockfish Gap and follows a similar path as Skyline Drive along ridge tops. The Parkway was conceived and designed as a scenic motor road and conservator of the natural and historical treasures of the Blue Ridge. Today, it is the most visited site in the National Park system. Like the Skyline Drive, the Blue Ridge Parkway was built in the 1930s in the midst of the Depression as a public works project. It took more than a half-century to complete and became the nation’s first and longest rural parkway, connecting Shenandoah National Park in Virginia with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina. Known as “America’s Favorite Drive” the Blue Ridge Parkway winds through 29 counties and 469 miles of mountain meadows with endless vistas of mountains and valleys. There is no end to the fascination the Parkway provides, for it encompasses some of the oldest settlements of both pre-historic and early European settlement. For visitors with a yen for history, overlook signs trace much of the history of Appalachian culture, as do visitor center exhibits, restored historic structures, and developed areas, all of which reveal points of particular interest. The Blue Ridge Parkway is very much a “drive awhile and stop awhile” experience. The Parkway was designed for leisurely motoring, so speed limits do not exceed 45mph. Visitors are encouraged to take their time to enjoy the area’s incomparable beauty. The Parkway incorporates several recreation areas, some exceeding 6,000 acres. At the entrance to each of the recreational areas along the Parkway, you will find a large sign bearing the Parkway emblem. These areas have visitor centers, campgrounds, picnic areas, trails and, in many instances, concessionaire-operated lodges, restaurants, and other facilities. Unless otherwise posted, parking is permitted along road shoulders. Short trails offer the chance to get away from the road and see the Blue Ridge without the hindrance of an automobile window. This can be very rewarding, even if it’s just for a few minutes. Longer trails are also available for the more adventurous. Interpretive signs carrying the squirrel gun and powder horn symbol are at many overlooks and historic sites along the parkway, as are numbered mileposts. The zero milepost marker is at Rockfish Gap, immediately south of Shenandoah National Park, and each mile is numbered pro-
October is Wine Month Virginia devotes the entire month of October to celebrate wine by offering hundreds of special events, festivals and tastings at more than 200 wineries. The fall is the optimum time to visit Virginia’s vineyards where harvesting is still in process. Wine lovers will enjoy following Virginia’s numerous wine trails that take you through quaint small towns and the picturesque countryside. Each trail has a unique theme, from history to music to regional interests, complete with wineries, local restaurants and overnight accommodations. Major wine festivals take place during October throughout the state. The 26th Annual Barrel Tasting at Autumn Hill Vineyards in Greene County will take place over two weekends: Oc-

An Autumn Barrel Tasting will take place at Barboursville Vineyards in Orange County, on October 2728 from 11:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. This much-enhanced tasting, focusing on valuable older vintages, will include the traditional sampling of new Octagon from the barrel.

Did you know that Virginia has more sites on the National Registry of Haunted Places than any other state? What better time to explore those places than close to Halloween?

eady to get into a spooky mood? Halloween always brings out ghosts and goblins, often with activities that benefit groups in our area. Dust off your witch’s hat, your Dumbledore robe, or Batman cape and get ready for some fun. The Albemarle Historic Society will be presenting their 18th Annual Spirit Walks from October 19th through 21st. “These are special-edition walks to coincide with Charlottesville’s 250th anniversary,” says President Steven Meeks, “and they are fundraisers to benefit the Society.” These aren’t tricked-out haunted houses with phony screams and theater blood, but tours with guides well versed in 250 years of local history. “It’s an opportunity to meet individuals from Charlottesville’s past,” Meeks explains, “including many who lived and died here or just passed through.” Tours run about an hour and start at either the Maplewood Cemetery or Court Square departing every 15 minutes on Friday from 6:00 – 9:15 p.m., Sat 5:30 – 9:15 p.m., and Sunday 5:30 – 8:30 p.m. For more information, visit: www.albemarlehistory.org The Nelson County Community Fund will be the beneficiary of the Seventh Annual Opportunity Ball at
Hoooo’s Ready For
ing in shared projects, both commercial and artistic. Director Brian Wimer launched the Zombie movie and the race three years ago. Here’s how it works: runners opt to be humans or zombies. Humans get a 90-second head start with their “lives” hanging in the balance as a ribbon from their backs. Then the zombies are let loose to chase and grab as many ribbons as possible. The zombie with the most ribbons wins. When humans lose their ribbons, volunteers along the course are ready with buckets of fake blood to zombify them. Oh, the Deluxe Zombies? For $15 over the regular entry fee, professional make-up artists will zombify all comers. Registration on-line until the Thursday before the race or on race day between 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. at the starting line near the Omni Hotel. For a race map and more information, visit www. badtothebone.biz. For family fun, head out to Nelson County’s Wintergreen Resort for two weekends of their “Halloween Spooktacular.” There are a variety of activities—many free—ranging from a campfire with storytelling by Kathy Coleman to workshops for painting or carving pumpkins, decorating cookies, making Halloween masks, trick-or-treat bags, pasta skeletons, and more. Other activities will include a zipline, a costume contest, a Trick-or-Treat parade, fun times in the Discovery Ridge Adventure Center, and even a movie. Children 11 and under must be accompanied by an adult. For more information, visit http://www.wintergreenresort.com/uploadedFiles/Events/ Halloween%20Schedule(1).pdf. Before the Civil War, Gordonsville’s Exchange Hotel with its grand veranda welcomed passengers from the two rail lines. During the war those lines transported troops, supplies, and eventually the wounded of both sides, providing care for 70,000 soldiers. Today, fully restored, it is an interesting museum dedicated to the Civil War era.
Halloween? By Marilyn PriBus
Veritas at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, October 26th. The festivities are Black Tie Optional or guests may come in their best Halloween finery. Following a five-course wine-paired dinner, there will be costume and dance contests, and dancing to live music. Especially enticing is an auction with many splendid items up for bid such as a fly-fishing trip to Jackson Hole, a tenday cruise with Holland-American, or a seven-night stay for eight at a Tuscany villa. For more information, click on “Events” at www.VeritasWines.com or call 540-456-8000. Have you ever considered being a Deluxe Zombie? It’s possible on the Downtown Mall at the Danger! Zombies! Run! 5K to be held on Sunday, October 28th. “All of us at Bad to the Bone cannot wait to bring the third annual Danger! Zombies! Run! 5K to Charlottesville again,” declares Zombie in Charge Francesca Conte, President of Bad to the Bone Endurance Sports. “This event is great for fami-
lies, serious runners, and non runners alike and benefits the Filmmakers Republik, which created the original movie Danger! Zombies! Run!” She explains that the Filmmaker’s Republik is a collective of media and film artists working to form a virtual studio in Central Virginia and is open to everyone interested in collaborat-

Over the years, there have been many reports of apparitions—both visible and audible—with many unexplained sights and sounds. The Museum will conduct its 11th annual Halloween Tours between 6:00 p.m. and midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, October 19th and 20th, 26th and 27th. Museum staff say the guides don’t need to purposefully frighten their guests because their
“permanent residents� often make their presence known. The Museum, at 400 South Main Street in Gordonsville, is a National Historic Landmark. For more information, visit: www.hgiexchange.org. Marilyn Pribus will probably be home on Halloween to calm the dog and treat neighborhood Harry Potters and princesses. She may be in costume herself.
