each other and to learn from others as we strive to always do good work, better. This year we are excited to welcome Vu Le’s voice to our conversation, discussing the power of community between nonprofits, and between nonprofits and funders.” Athena Gould, Executive Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Central Blue Ridge and a member of the Philanthropy Day Host Committee, had this to say: “Philanthropy Day is more than just a lunch—it’s a forum to come together to celebrate and highlight the impact of giving. “Vu Le has experience from across the country working with leaders of color in the nonprofit sector. It’s exciting that he is bringing that experience to Charlottesville, and that CNE is playing a role in expanding the conversation around diversity, equity, and inclusion in Charlottesville and with nonprofit leaders.”
This year’s Philanthropy Day speaker is Vu Le (“Voo Lay”), the Executive Director of Rainier Valley Corps, a Seattle nonprofit that promotes social justice by developing leaders of color, strengthening organizations led by communities of color, and fostering collaboration between diverse communities. Le is considered a national thought leader and truth teller on the unique role and challenges of nonprofits in a civil society, and he believes that building community is one of the most important things the nonprofit sector does. Known for his pointed observations delivered with a sense of humor, Le writes the blog NonprofitAF.com and is the co-author of Unicorns Unite: How Nonprofits and Foundations Can Build Epic Partnerships. Highlighting the event, CNE’s Executive Director, Cristine Nardi said, “Philanthropy Day is a celebration of the people who donate, volunteer, and give their skills and expertise to make a difference in the community. It’s also a time to come together to learn from

St. Anne’s-Belfield’s K - 12 Computer Science Program Sets National Standard Five years ago, St. Anne’s-Belfield School launched a model Grades K – 12 computer science program that has since set a standard of excellence on both regional and national scales, with educators across the globe looking to the program as a model of innovation. Coordinated by Zach Minster in the Upper School and Kim Wilkens, founder of local nonprofit Tech-Girls, in the Learning Village (Grades K - 8), the program has expanded rapidly
across the School, with a third computer science instructor hired for the 2018 – 2019 school year due to the popularity of courses. Today, computer science stretches across curricular and co-curricular programs and has become a part of daily life at the School. “Computer science is a conduit through which our School can achieve larger goals like student-directed learning, interdisciplinary inquiry, and individual impact on the larger community. Beyond content knowledge, the goal of the computer science program, much like the goal of the School, is to instill habits of mind that are compatible with the Information Age,” said Minster. “Our overarching goals are that 100 percent of School students are exposed to and benefit from computer science, that self-selecting students are prepared for college-level success, and that computer science becomes accessible to all.” In the past four years, the program has grown from a computer science elective in the Upper School to five sections of computer science courses and multiple students undertaking computer-science related study projects. In the Learning Village, the construction of the CS Lab and Wilkens’ availability to collaborate with teachers across disciplines has led to projects as diverse as a digital arts curriculum, weekly instruction on technology and computing for Kindergartners, pop-up makerspaces, “The 12 Days of Techmas,” and even a technology-based haunted library devised by students after reading Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book. “The computer science program grew through collaboration with students and educators willing to experiment,” said Wilkens. “Proofs-of-concept began with pilots, such as integration into the Grades K - 4 math rotation, alignment of project-based learning opportunities in Grades 5 - 8 classrooms, and initiating new CS courses for Upper School students that integrate into the traditional model.” In the 2018 – 2019 school year, the program brought several strands of computer science outreach under the SPARK! umbrella, with the stated goal of making computer science accessible to all in Charlottesville and beyond. Three signature initiatives will be offered to students and teachers at low or no cost, including an annual teen hackathon, summer experiences for middle and high school students, and a Computer Science Institute designed to give K – 12 teachers hands on experience
with computer science skills, tools, and lesson plans. These programs have already been recognized as role models by area collaborators like Mozilla, UVA Biomedical Engineering and Curry School of Education, ReinventED, and the i.Lab at UVA. “I am really excited to be working with UVA’s Curry School of Education on an initiative that will take what we’ve learned about K through 8 computer science integration in the Learning Village and bring it to more educators and students throughout Virginia and beyond in an effort to bridge the diversity gaps in tech,” noted Wilkens. “This is an exciting time to be a computer science educator,” agreed Minster. “The School’s Strategic Plan includes a goal of continuing to foster inspired teaching and enduring learning by developing essential twenty-first century academic programs, like computer science, in order to prepare our students for the opportunities and uncertainties of the future. “Through our work and the success of our students, we hope to have an impact far beyond our classrooms that will only continue to expand.” The 2019 SPARK! Teen Hackathon will take place Jan. 26 & 27. Applications are now open to area teens at spark.stab.org. St. Anne’s-Belfield School is a co-educational preschool through grade 12 day school of nearly 900 students and more than 150 faculty and staff, with a boarding program in grades nine through twelve. Fifteen countries are represented in the student body, with 40 percent of students receiving financial aid. More information may be found at www.stab.org.
Health Insurance: Could You Be Saving More Than You Think Through The Affordable Care Act? “It’s always smart to go back and find out what you are eligible for,” says Randy Rodgers, JABA’s Manager of Community Services in charge of Insurance Counseling, talking about people who purchased health insurance plans through the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) last year. Many people, says Rodgers, are not aware of the fact that they could actually be sav-

Through the years, from our roots as a federally mandated Area Agency on Aging to our current position as one of the most innovative and successful aging organizations, JABA has never lost focus of the needs and desires of the community.

ing more money by changing or modifying plans. Indeed, with Medicaid Expansion just launched in Virginia, there could be some big cost savings for low-income folks who typically get health insurance though the ACA. But you have to ask and find out. Also, while consumers who bought plans last year through the ACA might have been told their premiums won’t rise, Rodgers says you could still get cheaper plans depending on your circumstances. “You could actually save more money than you think,” says Rodgers, “which is why its a good idea to set up an appointment so we can review your plan. And remember, the counseling is free.” Of course, for those looking to purchase plans for the first time through the ACA, JABA Insurance Counselors can guide you through the often complicated process.

Sustained Growth Predicted for Area’s
Commercial Real Estate BY CELESTE M. SMUCKER
C
ommercial real estate in Charlottesville and the Valley (including shops, office buildings, apartment complexes, manufacturing plants, subdivisions and warehouses) continues its impressive growth with more of the same predicted for 2019. And so long as families continue to visit and move here for the natural beauty, outdoor activities, job opportunities, and mild climate (but with four seasons), agents are optimistic this trend will continue. The positive forecast is consistent with a recent survey by the Deloitte Center for Financial Services that foresees a bright outlook for commercial real estate worldwide in 2019, and predicts that investment in this market will “continue to rise on the back of steady economic and employment growth in key global markets.” Widespread commercial growth also relies on consumer confidence, a strong economy and historically low interest rates said Peter Wray, Broker at Triangle REALTORS® in Staunton. And these same factors support an active residential market, another critical driver of commercial growth that remains strong throughout our area.
Agents Report Robust Market It’s a “great market,” says Robin Amato with Real Estate III Commercial Properties, who is having one of her best years ever. She adds that all geographic areas are doing well. The market is “really solid,” observes Lisa Jones, President of Pavilion Properties. She is happy to see new tenants signing leases at Peter Jefferson Place, her company’s Pantops-area development featuring Class A office space. The newcomers join an impressive list of existing tenants, many of whom are renewing or expanding their leases. One example is The Nature Conservancy, an international environmental organization recently relocated from their familiar spot north of town to their brand new Pantops office. They appreciate their new space, which is much more efficient for them, Jones said. “Overall the market is still good,” says Benton Downer, Owner and Principal Broker at Downer and Associates. He has noticed “a pause” in leasing activity due to interest rate jumps, but says the investor side of the market continues to boom. The market is doing “real well,” says Bill Howard with Real Estate III Commercial Properties. He recounts the “amazing number of calls,” his office receives these days with inquiries about

all manner of property from close-in to as far away as Zion Crossroads and Greene County. Mike Pugh with Old Dominion Realty in Harrisonburg calls the Valley market “robust, and very active.” So active, in fact, that many contractors, especially those required for large infrastructure development, are booked through next summer, he says.
PROFESSIONAL OFFICE SPACE
An active part of the commercial market is investors looking for already leased properties. These could include shopping centers, apartments, office buildings, single tenant retail stores, mini-storage places, or gas stations. Investors range from single individuals (who may be searching for alternatives to the stock market in order to diversify) to larger entities such as REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts). This particular market is “extremely strong,” Wray says. He has “lots of investors calling,” adding there is plenty of competition, especially for prime properties. A related trend is business owners purchasing or building their own space after leasing for a time. Continuing low interest rates are a big reason, Amato says. With sufficient cash to put down, they can often enjoy mortgage payments that are less than the monthly
cost of their lease. Charlottesville’s Cavalier Produce, recently relocated to Zion Crossroads, is just one example. When they moved into their newly built space, they left behind their close-in Carlton Avenue location where they had operated for years. Part of their former space is now leased to the Champion Brewing Company, reports Eddie Karoliussen, Broker with Four Corners Real Estate Solutions, LLC. He adds that Found. Market Co. where visitors can enjoy coffee, gourmet food, bakery items and gifts, is now also located in the same center.
Outlying Areas Popular The strong commercial market is not confined to just a few parts of town. Sara Schroeder with Hasbrouck Real Estate Corp. explained that in recent years some areas, especially downtown Charlottesville, were very busy. Now, she says, we are seeing activity that is more widespread. Wray agrees stating: “In general, even with interest rates rising, the commercial market continues to be active and strong throughout Charlottesville, Waynesboro, Staunton and beyond.”

ance cites the growing commercial market as an important contributor to the local lifestyle. Home buyers living in communities such as Lake Monticello, Spring Creek, Villages of Nahor, and others plus surrounding rural areas all benefit from this expansion. Both Martha Jefferson and UVA have satellite offices in the area, Durham said, and residents can also shop at Walmart or Lowe’s, and choose from a growing number of restaurants. In addition, public water and sewer is coming to Zion Crossroads, and that will only accelerate commercial growth, he says. John O’Reilly, with BHG Real Estate - Basecamp, is also enthusiastic about the area’s commercial activity saying, “it is coming into its own.”

Both Greene and Madison Counties now enjoy active commercial markets. This is due in part to the low inventory of homes and rising prices in Charlottesville and Albemarle that send homebuyers further out to shop. One result is the impressive number of calls coming into Roy Wheeler Re-
alty Co.’s Greene area office inquiring about retail and industrial space, says Matthew Woodson, Managing Broker—”more than in the previous five years,” he stated. He explained that when businesses like these locate in Greene County there is “real added value” for residents making it more convenient to live, work and shop there. He sees commercial expansion continuing stating: “the best days are ahead of us.” Bill Gentry, Broker and Owner of Jefferson Land and Realty is also pleased with expanding commercial activity in both Greene and Madison. In Greene County, Chuck’s Auto Center plans to build on 29 North near Lake Saponi. Having lost their lease, they are working through the zoning and site plan process and expect to be up and running by early 2019, Gentry said. Further north, O’Reilly’s Auto Store has filed a site plan and intends to build their new location in Cornerstone Square near Family Dollar.

The new North Pantops Professional Center on Olympia Circle, the first of three buildings planned for that site, will be ready for occupancy by mid2019 says Steve Melton, Broker with Virginia Land Company. Response to ads about the new space has been good, Melton said and he is working with several likely tenants.

Retail is hot in the Valley. Wray cited the Frontier Center in Staunton where shoppers at the Aldi grocery chain can select from Bojangles’, Chick-fil-A and McDonald’s at lunchtime. At nearby Staunton Crossing, out of town visitors can choose from one of 200 hotel rooms at the Marriott or Tru by Hilton Hotels that both just opened. And if your destination is Harrisonburg try the recently opened Madison Hotel near James Madison University, Pugh suggests. Myers Corner, a mixed-use development on Route 250 in Fishersville is “developing strongly,” Wray says and will soon include a new assisted living facility and professional offices. Warehouse space, which is in very short supply in the Charlottesville area, is more plentiful in the Valley, Pugh observes. However, he adds that even there, inventory is shrinking, so the time to act is now if securing warehouse space is high on your list. The commercial real estate market is booming on both sides of Afton Mountain. Agents look forward to a productive 2019 and even more and varied places to work, shop, eat, live and enjoy a night out on the town.

Visitors also look forward to happy hour Monday through Friday from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. IX also welcomes Little Planet, which offers drop-off child care for parents working out, shopping or enjoying the food and drink available there. Parents must be onsite to use this service featuring what Hill calls “organic, wholesome child care” that will soon include time in a yurt. In another popular spot, local residents appreciate the retail stores, restaurants, theater and service providers at 5th Street Station. For example, iFixt offers walk-in, fix-it services for smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other mobile devices. While awaiting their repairs, shoppers can take care of banking, visit their doctor at Sentara Family Medicine, get a haircut, or consult their favorite physical therapist at Select Medical.

Ashlawn and Montpelier are other nearby significant historical sites. There’s plenty of free or very-lowcost entertainment as well. Stroll the Downtown Mall. Attend religious services. Exercise in your neighborhood, on the Rivanna Trail or farther afield in Shenandoah National Park. If children are coming, find the nearest park or schoolyard with play equipment for them to burn off youthful energy. Invest in a soccer ball, a jump rope, snow saucers (it could happen!), and other equipment for vigorous play.

We Haven’t Eaten in Minutes
How to Plan the Best
Holiday Visits BY MARILYN PRIBUS
I CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM
t’s right there on the calendar. Company’s coming for the holidays. Whether it’s long-time friends, your child’s college roommate or a flock of in-laws, it’s not too early to start prepping. Remember, happy visits don’t just happen. Plan ahead because you (and your guests) will be more relaxed when you are well prepared.
Safety First Be especially aware if your list includes persons with disabilities or allergies or children. Toxic items and fragile things are the greatest risks for youngsters and visitors with physical, visual or cognitive disabilities, so remove valuable breakables and heavy, tippy objects. Stash away scatter rugs that might trip a guest using a walker or stroller. Reduce the temperature on your water heater if it’s especially hot. Do you have adequate sleeping space for everyone? Is that old sleeper-sofa only suitable for guests you hope will leave quickly?
If your visitors include youngsters, you can probably put some of them on the floor on air mattresses, but don’t wait until the last minute to rent or borrow rollaways or inflatable beds. How about bedding down the little ones? One Belmont grandma solved that problem by buying a crib and high chair at a local thrift store. She just stashes them away between visits—when other grandparents aren’t borrowing them for their own visitors, that is. Speaking of little ones, ensure that medications or poisonous items are stored safely. Program your phones with numbers for medical emergencies including poison control and know the hours of the nearest urgent care facility or emergency department. Protect visitors from pets. And if necessary, protect pets from visitors. Ensure your animals have a safe retreat and introduce your guests to your pets in a calm setting. If you have young visitors, remind them how to behave around animals.
If you have pets that might be aggressive or upset by visitors, consider having them stay elsewhere while visitors are there.
The Little Extras If you’re sure there are no allergies, a bouquet of flowers in the guest bedroom is always welcoming. Provide extra blankets and, if possible, a choice of soft or firm pillows for each guest. Include glasses and a water carafe for the bedside. If you don’t have a folding luggage stand, be sure there are convenient places to set luggage. Have extra hangers in the closet and clear out drawers if guests are staying several days. Does the guest room lamp work and is it bright enough for visitors who like to read in bed? Provide a clock with numbers that can be seen in the dark. Install nightlights in bedrooms, hallways and bathrooms. Be particularly sure stairs are well lit, especially if you have visitors with any sort of vision problems. Consider small flashlights for bedside tables. Add a touch of hospitality by providing toiletries in the bathroom along with clearly identified towels and face clothes. And be sure to have plenty of T.P. that can be easily found right in the bathroom when it’s time to replace a roll.
Plan Activities Make a list of places for good times together such as special holiday programs at the Paramount Theater and other live music venues. Monticello is free (with proof of residency) for one
Check ahead of time for food allergies and preferences so your pantry will be well stocked. Have easy-to-find snacks for middle-of-the-night hunger pangs as well as a breakfast plan for early risers. Will you do all the food prep, stock up on ready-to-serve items, eat out most meals, have guests pitch in on cooking or all of the above? These days your company may well range from omnivores to those needing (or simply preferring) items that are gluten-free, vegetarian, kosher, halal, or vegan. Browse the Internet for likely recipes and test them ahead of time. Most everyone can eat a vegan dish, but that’s not true for all selections. Plan simple menus and freeze lasagna, soup, and casseroles ahead of time. Save pizza coupons and the menu from your favorite Chinese restaurant and order in. Have eateries in several price ranges in mind if your guests want to treat you to dinner out.
Bottom Line Above all, don’t let the “shoulds” get you down. You can use paper napkins instead of linen. (Have the kids decorate them with holiday motifs.) You can also use paper plates. You can buy frozen lasagna instead of making it. It’s the holidays—take the easy way and leave yourself free to enjoy every minute. And keep in mind that something always goes wrong. Remember also that the jammed garage door, the dead-battery car, and the ants that invade the kitchen will be a lot funnier when you look back on that memory in the future. n Marilyn Pribus and her husband live in Albemarle County near Charlottesville. They’re relaxing this year because they will be neither visiting nor visited.
