Yoga Fundraiser Local nonprofit Building Goodness Foundation (BGF) and Open Heart Yoga Center will partner to host a weeklong fundraiser for the nonprofit. Between Monday, May 18 and Friday, May 22, the center will donate $2 to BGF for every person that attends a yoga or meditation class. For this one week, community members are encouraged to sign up for yoga and meditation classes to benefit BGF. These classes will do more than quiet the mind or align the chakras, they will improve our entire community by providing support for BGF to build and renovate local homes and nonprofit facilities. These funds will go to support BGF’s work in Central Virginia, including upcoming partnerships with Rockfish Wildlife Sanctuary, the Mattaponi Indian Reservation, the Rivanna Trails Foundation, and others. Open Heart Yoga Center offers daily yoga classes, with an emphasis on providing safe and meaningful instruction. Participants’ first class will be free. The center’s yoga instructors include Annmarie-Amrita Johne, Am-
ber Karnes (Body Positive Yoga, for all sizes and shapes), Amy Reed (Kundalini and Hatha yoga), Monica Farrell, and Leigh Heasley. The center also offers group meditation sessions twice a week, which are open to beginners and experts alike. To view a comprehensive class schedule for Open Heart Yoga Center, please visit https://clients.mindbodyonline. com/classic/home?studioid=181615. Parking is available across the street from center.

Last year, Travelers Today named Charlottesville as Number One in its Top Five College Towns category. (We know you’re wondering. Runners-up two to five were: Burlington in Vermont, Boulder, Ithaca, and Ann Arbor.) Charlottesville, the website states, does the best job of combining metropolitan interests with the interests of the students to create a “harmonious whole.” It also mentioned attractions such as Monticello and The Paramount Theater, but the University of Virginia (UVa) has the leading role in town.

“UVa is the lifeblood of this community,” declares Bill May, of ERA Bill May Realty Company. “I was raised down by Gordonsville, then the family moved to Park Street. I’ve lived here all my life, watched circuses march down Main Street, watched them put the bypass through,” he recalls. “I went to UVa myself, but had some time off for an ‘overseas study tour’ as an Army Ranger in Vietnam.” He returned to town after his military service and graduated with honors from the McIntire Business Institute. “UVa adds flavor to the area and brings a lot of economic prosperity to the region,” May continues. “We have a

great hospital and all sorts of opportunities for sports, concerts, and plays— things just not available without UVa. Those things bring people back to retire, too.” UVa is comprised of eleven schools in Charlottesville plus the College at Wise. The schools offer more than 50 bachelor’s degrees, almost 80 master’s degrees, and more than 50 doctoral degrees, as well as professional degrees in law and medicine. Last September, the prestigious U.S. News & World Report annual standing of colleges rated UVa as the second ranked public university in the U.S. (behind only UC Berkeley and tied with UCLA) and tied with UCLA as 23rd best overall (public or private). The University also contributes to our region’s diversity by drawing students, faculty, and people from other countries as both temporary and permanent residents. In 2013, about 12 percent of the residents of Charlottesville plus Albemarle, Fluvanna, Nelson and Greene Counties were foreign born. This doesn’t include persons who are automatically citizens because they were born in an overseas U.S. territory or born abroad with at least one parent who was a U.S. citizen. ”The Charlottesville region is frequently recognized as one of the best places to live in the country,” states

Teresa Sullivan, the eighth president of UVa. She cites many elements including natural beauty, historic sites, a vibrant cultural scene, and a strong economy. “The University of Virginia is engaged in every aspect of community life,” she continues, “and this relationship creates a stronger community overall.” “For those of us who work at UVa,” Sullivan points out, “the Charlottesville region is not just our workplace, it’s our home, so we want to help build a strong, prosperous region.” UVa employees in Charlottesville and the surrounding counties are involved in civic, school, musical, religious, volunteer, and other organizations. They pay taxes and support local businesses as part of the fabric of our region.
Major Impact on the Local Economy With nearly 14,000 faculty and staff, UVa is the area’s largest employer, which contributes to stable employment in the community. Its payroll of $1.4 billion in the academic year 20112012 (the most recent figures available) plus expenditures for services, supplies and maintenance directly impact the community. Construction and renovation are also substantial economic
contributors with the majority of materials purchased within 50 miles of Charlottesville. In fact, direct spending in the Charlottesville region by UVa and the people and programs associated with
UVa amounts to nearly $3 billion annually. This includes, for example, UVa students who support community businesses from landlords to grocers to UVa tee shirt merchants to the tune of almost $240 million every year. UVa’s local real estate taxes amount to nearly $1.9 million annually. The university also subsidizes Charlottesville Area Transit’s local bus and trolley service, local 9-1-1 services, Charlottesville fire services, and the Charlottesville-Albemarle Rescue Squad. The university also helps keep the real estate market strong. “UVa offers excellent opportunities for real estate investors because it creates a strong rental market,” observes REALTOR ® Janet Matthews, owner of Charlottesville Town and Country. “The regular turnover offered by the graduate schools supports the sales market as well, with inventory being bought and sold every two or three years. With interest rates where they are, it actually makes more sense to buy even in the short term. The average rule of thumb is five years in a house, but we are in a strong economy that makes buying much more financially attractive.” With no professional sports teams nearby, many local residents instead become Wahoo supporters. In fact, some devoted out-of-town fans buy a pied-à-terre to use when they come for games. Some of them eventually move here, keep the smaller place as an investment, and purchase a larger home. Some people rent out their investment properties near The Grounds, but put a clause in the lease retaining their parking rights for game days.
Healthcare Requirements for ideal retirement locales often specify a university teaching hospital and the UVa Medical Center shines here. The system includes both a medical school and a nursing school. The new Battle Building, which opened last summer, houses pediatric outpatient care with dozens of pediatric specialties, a teen and young adult health center, outpatient surgery, and a clinical trials suite and clinical research office, creating all-in-one-place all care for children. Patients can access their medical records and communicate with their personal healthcare provider on-line and same-day appointments are often available. Searchable on-line medical files include information on many topics. The Remote Area Medical clinics (RAM) provides services in several distant counties and in some cases, telemedicine supports patients who must travel from as far away as West Virginia. Clinical trials enroll local volunteers while Club Red—aimed at improving heart health in women—offers information, local healthy-eating discounts, and a monthly newsletter. In 2013 (the most recent year for records), the Healthcare System treated nearly 800,000 outpatients, almost 30,000 inpatients, performed close to 20,000 surgeries, and handled more than 60,000 ER visits. At the same time, it provided millions of dollars’ worth of free care through financial aid and Medicaid. The Medical Equipment Recovery of Clean Inventory program (MERCI) collects clean, unused medical supplies and distributes thousands

of dollars’ worth to both local and international nonprofits at no cost to them.
Charitable Activities UVa employees and students are generous with both dollars and time. For example, close to 7,000 hours are donated to the Charlottesville Free Clinic with a value of about $7.5 million. Each September, during the National Day of Caring, about 1,000 volunteers pitch in on nearly 100 projects in Charlottesville and surrounding counties. Their efforts range from painting schools to construction, landscaping, visiting the elderly, and more. University students also volunteer on a regular basis with area rescue squads. Day care centers, and animal shelters. In a typical year, they provide well over 5,000 hours of tutoring and assistance to area youth at more than 20 community locations while the Young Women Leadership Program mentors eighth- and ninth-grade girls addressing issues related to self-esteem, scholastic achievement, and decision-making. The largest student-volunteer effort is Madison House which recruits, trains and mentors over 3,300 student volunteers each year. These students contribute more than 10,000 hours of
community service directly impacting some 15,000 residents in our region. Finally, at the end of the academic year, UVa students donate household goods and furniture to support regional nonprofit organizations serving low-income residents through Chuck It For Charity and the Sofa Shuffle.
Community Outreach “The university gives such an energy to this town,” says longtime resident Ronna Gray. She and her husband, Les Pearlstein, were employed by UVa some years ago and stayed in town when they moved on to other employment. Gray is only one of many people in Charlottesville who cite the presence of UVa as an important factor in their decision to live here. “I wouldn’t call myself an intellectual,” she continues, “but I appreciate the intellectual life of the university. We have friends who are on the faculty and other people in Charlottesville are connected too, and that makes for an interesting community. We love taking visitors on tours of The Grounds and we also enjoy going to basketball games.” Every year the UVa serves over one million people like Gray through more than 500 public service and outreach programs. Through OutreachVirgin-
ia, local residents can find interesting programs in music and drama, opportunities to volunteer at UVa, and the chance to learn how the university and the community are engaged. Musical treats include the Charlottesville & University Symphony Orchestra comprised of music faculty members, talented students, and community musicians. The Orchestra presents concerts, has a special program to introduce community youth to orchestral instruments and performs a free Symphony Under the Stars. The annual Messiah Sing-along is an institution for many in the region inviting community singers and orchestra members to join in. In addition, there are a number of other musical groups from chamber music to jazz to singing ensembles offering concerts. Free Lunchbox Recitals are presented throughout the academic year and a Music Department Colloquium is free to the public and convenes on select Friday afternoons. The Miller Center is another wonderful resource, offering hundreds of free lectures. The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, designed for seniors and affectionately called OLLI, was inspired by Thomas Jefferson’s deeply held view of education as a lifelong enterprise to invigorate the mind.
Volunteer course instructors are specialists in their fields—many are professors from UVa and other universities across the United States. “I’ve taken a lot of OLLI courses,” says Gray. “There’s such a variety available. For instance, I’ve taken courses on the circus, on Islam, and on opera appreciation.” The Fralin Museum of Art, about a block from the Rotunda, is open to the public Tuesday through Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. Admission is free and the museum is accessible to individuals with disabilities. Changing exhibitions might spotlight an individual artist, a particular art form, or a special theme. The permanent collection consists of approximately 13,000 objects and many items are available for study in the collection and through virtual digital access. Highlights of the collection include European and American painting, photography, works on paper, African and American Indian art. UVa’s presence in Central Virginia underpins the entire area with a strong contribution to the economic, education, and n social fabric of the community. Marilyn Pribus and her husband live in Albemarle County near Charlottesville. When the leaves are off the trees in winter, they can see UVa’s main hospital from their home.

is that compost is an excellent source of organic matter for garden plants. It sustains a healthy atmosphere for the soil and keeps insects, plant diseases, and weeds away. If the idea of making your own compost isn’t appealing, you do have another option – organic fertilizer. Organic fertilizers are carbon-based compounds that increase the productivity and growth quality of plants, according to organicfacts.net. Since it’s bio-degradable, it’s safer for the environment, it ensures the fertility of the soil and increases its nutrient-holding capacity. Conversely, the use of chemical fertilizers can contaminate both land and water, which attributes to diseases, and is associated with the extinction of a number of plant, animal and insect species.

LIVING GREEN
Use an Environmentally Friendly Watering System
GO Green: Make Your Yard More
Environmentally Friendly
CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM
BY JANET THOMSON
When tackling how to make your landscape environmentally friendly, you should think of two things – conserving resources and using non-toxic products. Since water is one of your main resources for maintaining a beautiful lawn, you should plan to use vegetation that is native to your region, uses minimal water and requires nominal care.
native plants attributes to the increase presence of desirable wildlife, such as butterflies and birds, giving them a safe haven as they journey between summer and winter habitats. The Virginia Native Plant Society and the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation have compiled a list identifying plants native to this region.
Incorporate Native Plants in Your Landscaping
Plant Trees Strategically
Using plants native to your area when landscaping helps reduce the likelihood of introducing new invasive species. Because native plants have adapted to the area’s climate and soil, they often require less water, fertilizer and pesticide. When fewer chemicals are used to maintain your lawn, it helps water quality in nearby rivers and streams. You can also save water by including drought-resistant perennials in your planning. In addition,
When designing your landscape, you want to plant trees strategically so that they provide enough shade for your home. This will help cut down on your need for air-conditioning during those summer months, saving both energy and money. Furthermore, you should avoid planting trees on the south side of your home – during the winter months, you’ll get more sunlight and a lower heating bill. According to cleanarigardening.com, trees are like the lungs of the planet. They breathe
in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen, which provides a habitat for birds and other wildlife. ColoradoTree.org stated that 800 million tons of carbon is stored in the trees that make up the urban forests of the United States, translating a savings of $22 billion in control costs. In addition, mature trees can absorb roughly 48 pounds of carbon dioxide a year, which releases enough oxygen to sustain two human beings. Basically, when you plant a tree you save a life.
Make Your Own Compost or Use Organic Fertilizer For the enthusiastic homeowner taking on the task of planting a garden, you might want to consider making your own fertilizer. You can make your own compost by using fruit and vegetable peelings, egg shells, and coffee grounds. The consensus among agricultural scientists all over the world
If you’re planning to grow edible plants, you should be watering your lawn with a lead-free hose. The best hose for watering your lawn is one that is safe for drinking and made of natural rubber or polyurethane, according to zingerhardware.com. They recommend using the Gatorhyde Lead-Free Garden Hose, which is 100 percent lead free, and contains no harmful contaminations or BPA. On the other hand, you might want to convert to a drip irrigation system, which delivers water directly to your plants with minimal waste. According to Colorado State University, drip irrigation systems are around 90 percent efficient, while traditional sprinkle systems are only 50 – 70 percent efficient. When planning your lawn project, keep in mind that your landscaping ideas can have a big impact on how efficient and sustainable your home is in the long run. For example, how you strategically plant trees can help cool off a building or reduce the amount of energy allocated to air conditioning your home. And, since water is your most valuable resource, conserving it should take priority. The decision you make today will determine your environmental footprint tomorrow. n Janet Thomson is a freelance writer, copywriter and military wife residing in Charlottesville.
