Bright Beginnings Celebrates 30th Anniversary Bright Beginnings Preschool is pleased to announce its 30th Anniversary in Charlottesville next month.

The school founded by Kathe Petchel, an early childhood and elementary school educator started as a small inhome half-day preschool and has since developed into a full time preschool and childcare center with three locations in Central Virginia.

The first Bright Beginnings preschool was located in Earlysville from 1984 to 2008. Prior to moving to Forest Lakes, the school was located at the Church of Incarnation from 19881999. Petchel now owns and oversees two other locations - Mill Creek which opened in 1997 and Crozet which opened two years later.

Petchel is currently working on expanding the Forest Lakes location by adding a new building and recently opened infant rooms at all three locations.

Bright Beginnings Preschool is owned and operated by Petchel and her husband Bob, both who have lived in Charlottesville since 1980. They currently employ close to 50 full-time and part-time teachers, teacher’s aides, and administrative staff.

Bright Beginnings Preschool was founded in 1984 to provide a safe and nurturing environment for preschoolers and focuses on developing a strong sense of self, initiative, and intellectual and creative curiosity. Bright Beginnings has received numerous honors since opening including #1 Preschool, #1 Place to Work, and #1 Daycare. For more information go to www.brightbeginningsva.com or call 434-973-8414.

Artist And Curator From Adelaide Visits U.Va. For Residency From March 17 – April 11, 2014 the Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection of U.Va. will host Nici Cumpston (b. 1963), a Barkindji photographer, painter and curator from Adelaide, Australia. Her residency, sponsored

by Australia Council for the Arts, will provide a variety of enriching, inter-

disciplinary opportunities to meet the artist and learn about her art and curatorial practice.

Nici Cumpston’s artworks are primarily landscapes, in which she photographs spiritually and culturally significant places with a medium format film camera, prints them in black and white on canvas, and hand-colors them with acrylic, watercolor, and pencil. Her first job as a photographer was for the South Australian Police Department, where she processed and printed crime scene, accident investigation, and forensic autopsy film. Cumpston continues to use photography as “evidence” in her personal art practice, as the works in her exhibition having-been-there provide proof of Aboriginal occupation of land prior to European settlement.

Museum Director Margo Smith said, “We welcome Nici’s residency and her insights both as a practicing artist and a curator of major exhibitions of Indigenous Australian art.” As the Associate Curator of Australian Paintings, Sculpture and Indigenous Art at the Art Gallery of South Australia in Adelaide, Cumpston has organized many significant exhibitions including Heartland and Desert Country, which has toured Australia since 2010. She holds a BA in Visual Arts from the University of South Australia, and her artwork is held in esteemed private and public collections, including the National Gallery of Australia, the National Gallery of Victoria, the Queensland Art Gallery, and the Parliament House Collection. Most recently she was awarded the 2013 Premier’s NAIDOC Award, and in 2012 her work was featured in the major exhibition unDisclosed: 2nd National Indigenous Art Triennial.

Public opportunities to engage with Nici Cumpston begin at a reception to celebrate the her exhibition and residency on Friday, March 21st from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. Visitors can engage more in depth with the artist and her photographs the following morning, Saturday, March 22, during a guided tour of her works at the Kluge-Ruhe Collection at 10:30 am.

Nici Cumpston will provide two public lectures at U.Va. On March 25 she will share how fine art photogra-

phy can raise awareness of environmental degradation at the weekly Environmental Sciences Undergraduate Seminar Series in Clark Hall. She will speak more broadly about the breadth of her art and curatorial practices over the last fifteen years on April 8 at Campbell Hall, room 153. Cumpston will also lead a Flash Seminar at U.Va. about crime scene photography, which will include a look at the artworks of Weegee (1899 – 1968), and Andrew Savulich (b. 1949) in the Fralin Museum of Art’s collection on March 26.

Part of the residency also includes some time for Cumpston to explore the area in and around Charlottesville as the groundwork for a new body of photographs, as well as time to conduct some research on works in KlugeRuhe’s permanent collection.

Cumpston is the second resident artist at the Kluge-Ruhe Collection under its prestigious grant from Australia Council for the Arts, which awarded residencies to six Indigenous Australian artists. Her visit is presented in partnership with the Embassy of Australia and U.Va. McIntire Department of Art.

MADISON COUNTY For Gorgeous Views And a Friendly Country Lifestyle

CHERYL KREIS

BY CELESTE M. SMUCKER, PHD

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

f you like the idea of living where you have space and privacy without having to worry about encroaching development, then Madison County may be the perfect place for you to find a new home. Madison County residents love its beautiful scenery and rural lifestyle and are committed to keeping it in this unspoiled state free of big box stores.

Once part of Culpeper County, Madison became its own entity in 1792 when it was created by an act of the General Assembly. It was named for the Madison family who owned property along the Rapidan River, of which James Madison, our fourth president who helped draft the US Constitution and author the Bill of Rights, is a descendent. Montpelier, his estate in nearby Orange County, continues to be a major tourist attraction today.

Madison has much to offer, including gorgeous mountain views and a host of outdoor activities to attract campers, hikers, hunters, and fishing enthusiasts. Graves Mountain Lodge, known for its rustic cabins and gener-

ous family style meals, is in Madison as is Old Rag Mountain, a popular destination for hikers and climbers. The county’s comprehensive plan that limits sewer facilities means large commercial developments are unlikely any time in the near future. At the same time, however, the county does encourage smaller businesses such as its thriving tourist industry.

The real estate market in Madison is doing well, and is finally recovering from the downturn of the last few years. While retirees (and people planning for retirement) often purchase property there, it is also a popular spot for people from DC and other nearby urban areas who want a quiet, private place to go on weekends as well as for those who choose to settle there and commute to jobs in cities such as Charlottesville, Culpeper and Fredericksburg.

Why Madison?

Every location has its own special appeal. Madison is “very rural,” said Christiane Lindsay with Montague Miller & Co. It has great farmland and wonderful views. If you live in the east

end of the county you can enjoy the panoramic views at a distance, she explained, while those in the western end of the county can “live in the views.”

People enjoy Madison’s private and rural atmosphere, which is close enough to urban centers to be a convenient weekend getaway while not too remote to easily access modern conveniences. “You can be back in the hills, but in short order be in Charlottesville or even DC,” Lindsay continued. “It’s truly a country retreat,” but, she added that those who want to get out quickly and find good restaurants, theatres or shopping in town can do so.

There are also good places to eat without leaving the area such as the nearby Willow Grove Inn which, Lindsay says, “is as good as it gets.” It has a great restaurant and she explained she is “thrilled” to be able to show it off to visiting friends and real estate clients. A variety of local B & Bs are good stopping points for those passing through or those who want to enjoy Madison’s natural beauty or many activities. They also are convenient for county residents who need a comfortable place to put up guests when they come for a visit.

Tomarie Boyd, with Re/Max Crossroads in Culpeper, described the Madison lifestyle in glowing terms, pointing out that the county is not only lovely it is also “very laid back compared to Culpeper or Spotsylvania. It’s just a less hectic way of life,” she said, explaining that once people settle in Madison “they never want to move anywhere else. There isn’t a lot of turnover there,” she added.

Boyd also explained that many people don’t like the kind of restrictions they face when they buy a home in a subdivision. Madison doesn’t have a lot of subdivisions and people appreciate that they can purchase a rural property and paint their house any color they choose. At the same time, it’s close enough to urban areas that they can still easily commute to town for work, she added.

There is a long tradition of people moving to Madison to get away from the stress of urban life. Herbert Hoover, our nation’s 31st President, made Madison County his getaway place after he purchased land for a summer home, which he later called Rapidan Camp. Today it is sometimes

Today Rapidan Camp lies within the boundaries of Shenandoah National Park. As the first ever presidential retreat, it consists of 13 buildings that have been restored to look like they did when Hoover used to vacation there during his time in office.

Local agents are very positive about Madison’s real estate market.

“The market is definitely picking up,” Lindsay said, adding that they were seeing sales across all of the different price ranges. Her office is having what she described as a “great year,” already having exceeded their goals for where they expected to be at this point.

“We are definitely ahead of the game,” she said.

Bill Gentry, owner and principal broker with Jefferson Land and Realty said, “we are seeing slow incremental improvement in the market.” Last year he said that most of the sales were in homes selling for less than $250,000.

Today they are seeing more sales in the $250,000 to $400,000 price range.

“There are more of them on the market and they are selling within a fairly short time frame,” Gentry said of this higher price range.

Of course, he cautioned, this applies to properties that are priced correctly for the market, which may not reflect what a particular seller has invested in their home. For example, recently Gentry advised some sellers that they would be lucky to get as much as $219,000 for a lovely cottage on a few acres, in spite of the fact that their investment exceeded $270,000.

There is also some movement in the $400,000 to $900,000 price range, Gentry said. He recently sold a farm with a restored home on 80+ acres on what he described as an “idyllic” piece of property. He previewed it when it first went on the market and thought it was priced too high. Sometime later the owners reduced the price by $150,000, which was more in line with the market, and Gentry’s buyers didn’t hesitate to write a contract on it.

While the market is active, Gentry noted that today’s buyers are more cautious than they once were. Many people have concerns about income and job security, and may not make an offer on a home if it seems outside of their comfort level. This may be the case even if they qualify for a higher mortgage and the home is correctly priced.

Madison County Buyers Who is moving to Madison County?

While it is a popular place for retirees, they aren’t the only ones looking for homes there.

Gentry described some buyers who purchased a nice farm property twenty years ago at age 55. Today at age 75 they have no debt but can’t take care of the property anymore and don’t want such a large house. People like this have a lot of equity and frequently choose to downsize, but when they move, they stay within the county.

Other types of buyers are people coming in from out of the area looking for a place for a weekend retreat. Many have the intention of eventually making it their retirement home, Lindsay explained. She described one of her clients, a family from northern New Jersey. They are getting ready for what she called “the next step,” purchasing land on which to build a home in the near future.

Living in the country is a dream for many people that can be realized in Madison County. Gentry described a couple he worked with from northern Virginia. The husband retired from practicing law and they purchased a house in Madison that reminded them of one they rented when he was in law school.

Given the difference in prices, people can sell a home in northern Virginia and buy a farm in Madison and still put some of their sale proceeds in the bank. Lindsay’s clientele includes a couple approaching retirement who bought a horse farm where they were able to realize a long time dream of working with handicapped children, introducing them to horses and riding. This couple also loves breeding and raising dogs, a business that can be noisy and disruptive to neighbors.

Their new horse farm in Madison County with plenty of acreage allows them to enjoy both of these activities without fear of bothering anyone else.

Madison is also appealing to younger people still in the work force. Lindsay described yet another family who lives in DC because both spouses like their jobs. However, they wanted a getaway place where they could bring their dog and a young child on weekends. They were willing to drive, but not too far. Madison County was the perfect location.

Madison also suits first time home buyers who have jobs in nearby towns, but want a country lifestyle. The continuing low interest rates mean they can find a country home to meet their needs, said Patti Lillard with Montague Miller & Co.

A World Apart: An historic and gracious estate circa 1836 with 154 acres just north of Madison in well known Rappahannock County, VA. Perfect candidate for sizable Conservation Easement tax credits. Approximately 6500 square feet of living space with handsome living and dining rooms, spectacular kitchen & breakfast room, his and her studies, den, bar room with pool table,

Many buyers who relocate to Madison do so for the privacy, but many also appreciate what Lillard refers to as the “rural lifestyle.” She described this as a lifestyle where everyone knows everyone else and if they so desire can choose to get involved in the community. This sense of belonging is a draw for many first timers and retirees alike.

Madison is Popular with Tourists Tourism is the Madison County industry that has enjoyed the largest incremental growth, Gentry said. While visitors will find lots to do when they visit, these same activities are also popular amongst residents.

Over 33,000 acres within the boundaries of Madison are today part of Shenandoah National Park where hiking, climbing and camping are popular

activities. Hunting and fishing enthusiasts will find many opportunities including streams with native trout, as well as several others stocked by the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries between the months of October and May. President Hoover was especially fond of fishing, describing it as an “opportunity for refreshment of one’s soul and clarification of one’s thoughts by solitude.”

Visitors to Madison can select from several B & Bs in the county and many also enjoy visiting the local wineries, which Gentry said are all doing very well. In addition to tours and wine tastings, they offer scenic locations for parties or special events such as weddings. n Celeste Smucker is a writer, blogger and author. She lives near Charlottesville.

“THIS WHOLE AREA LOVES TO RUN,”

declares Francesca Conte who, with her partner James Gill, operates Bad to the Bone Endurance Sports.

Both have a long-time passion for running and organize running events all over the country. “Physical fitness is a huge part of life here. It’s always been part of the culture here simply because it is such a great environment.”

This is reflected on DailyFinance.com—a website devoted to helping readers “live a better life financially”—which recently named Charlottesville as the #6 healthiest small city in America. The basis: a Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index including healthcare coverage, low incidence of diabetes and obesity, optimism, fresh produce consumption, and frequency of exercise.

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

COMMUNITY

Marathon Is A Big Positive On April 5th, Bad to the Bone will operate the Miller Lite Charlottesville Marathon, the Whole Foods Charlottesville Half Marathon, the Charlottesville 8K Run, and the popular Kids’ Mile.

“The Charlottesville Marathon was our first event,” Conte recalls. “We both had been professional runners—that is, we ran for companies who sponsored us. James saw the need for a destination marathon and we had experience in the industry, and knew many companies and sponsors. So we did it.”

The 2002 inaugural event attracted about 350 registered runners. And this year? “We’re expecting 2300-2500,” Conte says. “Many are from Virginia, DC, and Maryland, but about a third are from other states. We usually have all the states represented—minus Alaska—plus international entries.” In the past, runners have come from Japan, Sweden, Italy, Spain, and other countries.

“The marathon really kicks off the running season in Central Virginia and it’s such a great place to come in the spring,” continues Conte. “The New York Times named us as one of the top five destination marathons in the whole country and Runner’s World Magazine lists this is one of the Best Races in the Best Places.”

and get fit as well as contribute to a good cause.”

There are many other local runs and races. For example, Bad to the Bone celebrates Halloween by mounting the quirky Danger! Zombies! Run! Local running clubs also organize a variety of races.

Running Clubs

THE TWELFTH ANNUAL

Charlottesville

MARATHON A Premier Event in our Running Town

BY MARILYN PRIBUS

And who can argue with the beauty of spring in Virginia? “We have people who come, run, and stay to buy a place,” Conte points out. In addition, the runners and their supporters have a big financial impact on the area.

Projections set that impact at close to $1.3 million counting hotel rooms, meals, and shopping. “We estimate close to $1million just on the Downtown Mall,” she says. “Hotels are filled early.”

“I have done this race twice and love it every time,” was the online post of an Alexandria runner last year.

“The course is beautiful, the officials and volunteers are so nice, and the finish line is fun and lively. If you’re look-

ing for a great, scenic run with great people, I would definitely recommend this race.”

Other Running Events A very different event is the late-summer Charlottesville Women’s Four Miler. Open to runners and walkers, it raises funds for the UVa Cancer Center Breast Care Program. Last year set a record by raising more than $370,000— the most in its 31-year history.

“I love volunteering for the Four Miler Training Program,” says REALTOR® Sara Greenfield, founder of Charlottesville Fine Homes and Properties. “There are hundreds of women who join the program, get inspired,

“There are some great running clubs in our area,” says marathon organizer Conte. “The largest is the Charlottesville Track Club.”

The CTC helps sponsor more than 25 race events in our community including the Women’s Four Miler, the New Year’s Day 5K and, the upcoming Charlottesville Ten Miler on March 29th. This year the event will raise funds for Charlottesville’s Barrett Early Learning Center.

“The Charlottesville Area Trail Runners are another group,” Conte notes.

Members train together and usually meet for weekend group runs in various locations and terrains. Their website has a detailed list of more than a dozen running trails in the area including length, elevation, approximate time, technicality, maps and photos.

“Another great group,” continues Conte, “is associated with Crozet Running.” Crozet Running is a store operated by fitness devotees John and Michelle Andersen. Their website has a running-related blog and lists local runs.

Another store is Ragged Mountain Running Shop, which has been in business for a long time. Most local sports stores also offer running products. “If you’re new to running, it’s good to go to a place where people really know what you need for running,” Conte recommends. “If you already know, you can find what you need in most sports stores.”

In short, whether you are a longtime resident or new to the region, a marathoner or someone who jogs around the block, you can find races as well as just-for-fun running trails and companions in our area. n Marilyn Pribus lives in Albemarle County near Charlottesville. She once finished in the top 1500 of a 10K run.

The Charlottesville Marathon is one of the Top Five destination marathons in the country.

He is the leader of The Other Europeans, a musical collaboration between renowned klezmer and Romani musicians, and musical director of Brave Old World, the pioneering klezmer revival group he and Rubin started in 1989. Bern has been an important figure in the klezmer revival and improvised music since the 1980s, collaborating with numerous artists including Itzhak Perlman, Guy Klucevsek, The Klezmatics, and Andy Statman. As an educator, he has taught at Klezkanada, Klezfest London, YiddishFest Moscow and elsewhere. Bern earned a DMA in Music Composition at the College-Conservatory of Music, University of Cincinnati (2006). His compositions have received awards in the USA, Europe and Israel, and he also writes and directs music for theater and modern dance productions. He received a Ruth Lifetime Achievement Award for his work in world music from the Dance and Folk Festival Rudolstadt in 2009. (http://www.alanbern.net).

The UVA Klezmer Ensemble focuses on the music of the klezmorim, originally the Jewish professional instrumentalists of eastern Europe. Klezmer was brought to North America by immigrants around the turn of the last

century. Since the 1970s, a dynamic revival of this tradition has been taking place in America and beyond. Klezmer’s recent popularity has brought it far from its roots in medieval minstrelsy and Jewish ritual and into the sphere of mainstream culture.

Now in its eighth year, the UVA Klezmer Ensemble has become a vital part of the musical community of Central and Northern Virginia. Performing in Old Cabell Hall as well as at conferences and festivals in Central and Northern Virginia. The ensemble is made up of undergraduate and graduate students from across grounds, faculty, alumni and other members of the greater Central Virginia community, and is dedicated to exploring klezmer and other Jewish and eastern European musical traditions from the 18th to the 21st century. The group is committed to ethnic, racial, cultural and religious diversity.

Joel Rubin’s recent activities include a CD with jazz pianist and composer Uri Caine (“Azoy Tsu Tsveyt,” Tzadik Records), teaching at the International Master Classes of the World Klezmer Center in Safed, Israel and at KlezKamp in New York, and performances at the Leonard Nimoy Thalia Theater (Symphony Space) in New York, the Music Gallery in Toronto with Uri Caine. In 2014 he will be a featured performer at the International Festival of Sacred Music in Fribourg, Switzerland, and at the KlezCalifornia festival.

Tickets for the Klezmer Ensemble concert are $10, $5 for students and free for UVA students if reserved in advance.

Tickets are available at www.artsboxoffice.virginia.edu or at the door on the night of the concert.
