Northam: ‘Virginia is for Amazon lovers’

Governor announces internet giant’s new location in Northern Virginia By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer

Efforts to entice Amazon to build its second headquarters in Virginia were rewarded with Tuesday’s announcement of a $2.5 billion investment by the corporate giant to spread its offices over Pentagon City, Crystal City and Potomac Yard in Northern Virginia. Amazon, based in Seattle, Washington, decided

to split its second headquarters between Virginia and Long Island City in New York. States and communities across the nation submitted 238 different proposals that included incentives as they

bid to lure Amazon to them. Northern Virginia’s proposal included four sites in the city of Alexandria, Arlington County, Fairfax County and Loudoun County. “National Landing,” the winning location, was proposed as a joint partnership between the City of Alexandria and Arlington County.

Pot-bellied pig, roundabouts, town manager situation focus of work session By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer

A woman’s request for a permit to keep a pot-bellied pig on her residential lot prompted chuckles and wry comments among Warrenton town council members during their work session Thursday. The matter of Catherine Croft and Hamlet, the pig she keeps at 449 Estate Ave. off Alexandria Pike near Walker Drive, came near the end of a meeting that saw council talk about hiring a consultant to help with the search for a new town manager and three possible new roundabouts. A section of the town code says a written permit is needed to keep a pig or hog, “or to maintain any pigpen or pigsty within the town.” The law has been on the books since 1981. Planning Director Brandie Schaeffer reviewed Town Code Section 3-5 — Keeping Swine and said council would be asked at Tuesday’s regular meeting to approve allowing one pig on the premises. That meeting occured after press time. Any other such requests will be handled on a “case by case” basis, she said. In a PowerPoint presentation, Schaeffer said that pigs need an outside rooting area and that outdoor activity is essential to their health. They can also be potty-trained, she said. “This is one hog of a situation,” remarked Council member Jerry Wood,

who represents Ward 1 where the resident and her pig reside. Wood said Croft’s homeowners’ association has no objection to her keeping the pig as a pet. He said he received a complaint after Croft took in another pig which grew beyond what Croft was expecting when she took in another animal. “It’s not a pig, it’s a hog,” Wood said. It reportedly grew to twice the size of the smaller animal within two

months. The SPCA, which placed the larger animal with Croft, was to remove it, Wood said.

More roundabouts?

During the more mundane part of the work session, Schaeffer said council would also be asked on Tuesday to approve a resolution in support of an application for $2.2 million in funding for three roundabouts. One would be at the intersection of East Lee, Walker Drive and Oliver City Drive and one at East Lee and Falmouth streets. The Virginia Department of Transportation has also suggested a roundabout outside the courthouse where Main Street, Waterloo, Winchester and Alexandria Pike converge. Schaeffer said however, “We’re not sure a roundabout is the best solution” at that location. The town owns quite a bit of right of way there for any intersection improvement, she added. The town will find out next spring if it will receive any funding. Formal design of intersection improvements will follow. There will be opportunities for public input at that point, either neighborhood meetings or larger group gatherings, Schaeffer said. Ge-

neric designs of intersection roundabouts are being sent with separate funding applications to VDOT for the three intersections. “We’ll be looking at the radius of each circle. We’ll be looking at using the existing right of way without having to acquire more,” Schaeffer said. The application is for money available in the 2022-2023 funding cycle. Though a 10-percent local match is required “no new tax dollars will be needed to make this happen,” Schaeffer said. Existing proffer funding can be used for the local match.

ISO: New town manager

Regarding the town manager search, the town will advertise for proposals from consultants to conduct the search. The request for proposals is expected to go out this week with a deadline for submissions of Nov. 30 so that the council can review them in December. On Oct. 30, town council voted to “release” Brannon Godfrey from the remainder of his contract after deciding to “pursue a different direction in our executive leadership,” according to a statement released by Mayor Carter Nevill.

Nov. 6 election saw 63-percent voter turnout in Fauquier By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer

Voter turnout in Fauquier County was higher for this year’s Nov. 6 midterm than it was for the midterm election in November 2014 but was far below turnout for the November 2016 presidential election that saw Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton. The number of registered voters topped 50,000 this year in Fauquier County with 50,888. Of those, 32,413 voted in the Nov. 6 election for a turnout percentage of 63.69 percent. The number of absentee voter applications processed by the Fauquier County Office of the General Registrar for this year’s voting was 3,746 — lower than the 5,281 applications in 2016 but higher than the 1,080 received in November 2014. Voter turnout was 43.79 percent in November 2014 when there were 47,267 registered to vote and 20,698 cast ballots. Voter turnout was 77.41 percent in Fauquier in November 2016 when there were 49,248 registered voters and 38,124 of them cast ballots. The results of Tuesday’s election were certified Friday following a canvass of the results and consideration of provisional ballots. Statewide, Democrat Tim Kaine won re-election to the U.S. Senate by a vote of 1,907,351 — 56.97 percent of the vote — to 1,373,615 — 41.03 percent for Republican Corey Stewart. Libertarian Matt Waters received 61,761 votes, or 1.84 percent of the total. Stewart beat Kaine in Fauquier County — 17,801 votes to 13,735 for Kaine while Stewart lost in Prince William County where he is chairman of the board of supervisors by a vote of 106,353 for Kaine to 54,004 for Stewart. Kaine also beat Stewart easily in Manassas,

TIMES STAFF PHOTO/ANITA L. SHERMAN Voters wait in line to cast ballots at C. Hunter Ritchie Elementary School Tuesday, Nov. 6. where the vote was 8,130 for Kaine to 4,496 for Stewart, and in Manassas Park, where the vote was 3,032 for Kaine to 1,260 for Stewart. In races for Congress, Republican Denver Riggleman beat Democrat Leslie Cockburn in the fight for an open seat in the 5th District, which includes most of Fauquier County. Riggleman took 165,339 votes statewide com-

pared to Cockburn’s 145,040 — roughly 53 percent to 46 percent. In Fauquier, Riggleman received 15,047 votes to 11,109 for Cockburn. Cockburn received slightly more absentee votes than Riggleman — 1,488 to 1,418. The only precinct Cockburn won in Fauquier was The Plains where she received 722 votes to 694 for Riggleman. In the race in the 1st District, which includes parts of Fauquier and Prince William counties, incumbent Rob Wittman, a Republican, beat Democrat Vangie Williams by a total vote of 183,224 to 148,433 — roughly 55 percent to 44 percent. Wittman carried Fauquier but lost to Williams in Prince William. Wittman received 3,915 votes in Fauquier to 1,996 for Williams — roughly 66 percent to 33 percent. Williams received 39,395 votes compared to 29,966 for Wittman — about 56 percent to 46 percent. In the hotly contested 10th District race featuring Republican Barbara Comstock and Democrat Jennifer Wexton, Comstock was unseated by a final vote count in the district of 206,245 to 160,790—about 56 percent to 43 percent. The race was close in Prince William where Wexton took 15,744 votes to 15,310 for Comstock. Wexton easily carried Manassas—7,794 for the Democrat and 5,118 for Comstock—as well as Manassas Park—2,959 for Wexton and 1,419 for Comstock. In the 11th District, Democrat Gerry Connolly won re-election over Republican challenger Jeff Dove by a final vote districtwide of 218,957 to 82,967 — about 71 percent to nearly 27 percent. Part of Prince William County is in the 11th District and Connolly won easily there with 47,363 votes to 14,683 for Dove — 75 percent to 23 percent. Reach James Ivancic at jivancic@fauquier.com

Governor announces internet giant’s new location in Northern Virginia AMAZON from page 1 Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam said more than 25,000 high-paying jobs will be created over 12 years. The headquarters will be housed in a collection of new and renovated buildings located in the newly dubbed “National Landing,” which includes portions of Pentagon City and Crystal City in Arlington County and Potomac Yard in Alexandria. Amazon’s initial growth is expected to be focused in the Crystal City and Pentagon City portions of the area, according to a press release from Northam’s office. Virginia is expected to gain more than $3.2 billion in new state general fund revenues over the 20-year incentive term with Amazon, after accounting for direct company incentives, according to Northam’s announcement. In addition to the 25,000 direct jobs Amazon will create, more than 22,000 permanent, direct, and indirect new jobs are expected, the press release said. “I was pleased to see the governor’s announcement regarding Amazon’s HQ2 investment in northern Virginia. This is a great win for the State of Virginia and helps promote our region as an attractive location for technology companies…which benefits every community in the area,” said Miles Friedman, director of Fauquier County’s Department of Economic Development. State Sen. Jennifer Wexton, D-33rd, who was elected last week to represent the 10th District in Congress, was congratulatory but also cautious about whether Northern Virginia’s infrastructure is up to challenge. “This historic move by Amazon to bring half of its HQ2 to Virginia will yield good-paying, sustainable jobs that will allow Northern Virginia’s economy to compete globally for decades to come. I’m glad Amazon recognizes that Northern Virginia is a top location to raise a family and grow a business,” Wexton said. “However, I share the concerns of my constituents regarding whether we have the necessary infrastructure, including roads, transit, schools and affordable housing to properly welcome Amazon to our region. I look forward to working with Amazon now and in the future and call upon them to be a responsible corporate citizen, to ensure that the quality of life of their future employees and current northern Virginia residents is not adversely impacted by this move.” Virginia incentive package for the new Amazon headquarters was made public for the first time Tuesday in conjunction with the governor’s announcement.

Virginia unveils incentive package

Northam said the majority of the commonwealth’s proposal to Amazon involves investments in education and transportation infrastruc-

ture. The commonwealth’s package aims to double the annual number of graduates with bachelor’s and master’s degrees in computer science and closely-related fields, ultimately yielding 25,000 to 35,000 additional graduates over the next two decades. The commonwealth, Arlington County, and the City of Alexandria have also committed funding for transportation investments to support mobility in the region. Included in the incentive package, which is subject to approval by the Virginia General Assembly, the state will: • Provide up to $22,000 per job or up to $550 million to Amazon. Additional incentives would be available if Amazon creates more than 25,000 jobs. • Invest up to $195 million of non-general fund money in transportation projects that will improve mobility in the region, including additional entrances to the Metro stations at Crystal City and Potomac Yard; improvements to U.S. 1; a connector bridge from Crystal City to Washington National Airport; and a transitway expansion supporting Pentagon City, Crystal City and Potomac Yard. • Make performance-based investments in bachelor’s degree programs in computer science and related fields that will be distributed statewide based upon a negotiated agreement with each public university or community college that wishes to participate. • Invest of up to $375 million over 20 years for new master’s degree programs in computer science and related fields at George Mason’s Arlington campus and for Virginia Tech to establish a new Innovation Campus in Alexandria, both of which are subject to a one-toone match from the universities with philanthropic funds; and • Invest $50 million over 20 years in K-12 tech education and internship programming to connect higher education students to tech jobs. Virginia Tech has committed to building a 1 million-square-foot, technology-focused campus in Alexandria — a $1 billion project that is part of a comprehensive higher-education package that was cited as a key reason Amazon selected Virginia for a new headquarters site. The Virginia Tech Innovation Campus will be along U.S. 1 in Alexandria. The university has entered into a memorandum of understanding with Stonebridge Associates Inc. and the City of Alexandria to expedite construction of the new campus.

Addiction recovery center eyed for Twin Oakes Manor The PATH Foundation to partner with private Herren Wellness Group By James Ivancic and Karen Chaffraix Times Staff Writers

The PATH Foundation is seeking Fauquier County’s blessing to establish a new, privately-operated 24-bed addiction-treatment facility in a home located on a 50-acre tract near Airlie. The Warrenton-based foundation has a contract to purchase the eight-bedroom, eight-bath, 11,700-square-foot home now known as the Twin Oakes Historic Manor House with an eye toward turning it into the Herren Wellness Retreat at Twin Oaks. The facility would be run by the Herren Wellness Group, founded by Chris Herren, a former professional basketball player and recovering addict. The project requires a special-use permit from the Fauquier County Board of Supervisors to operate the recovery center. Supervisor Chris Granger, whose Center District includes the home, said last week he does not foresee any obstacles to the application. “I don’t see any red flags,” Granger said. “In Herren, you have an operator, a treatment program, working with the PATH Foundation — two credible sources, and it’s in a good location,” Granger said. The home, at 6791 James Madison Highway (U.S. 17), is owned by Mark and Angela Smith, who purchased it last year from the Airlie Foundation. PATH is working with the Herren Wellness Group to establish “spiritual wellness retreat focused on recovery from substance abuse” at the 50-acre site. It would be a private-pay facility whose services are generally not covered by health-care insurance, according to the Massachusetts-based foundation’s website.

The PATH Foundation has a contract to purchase the eight-bedroom, eight-bath, 11,700-square-foot home now known as the Twin Oakes Historic Manor House with an eye toward turning it into the Herren Wellness Retreat at Twin Oaks, a new, privately-operated 24-bed addiction-treatment facility. A four-week stay at the Herren Wellness Center in Seekonk, Massachusetts costs between $12,500 and $15,000, its website says. “We’ve gotten to know Chris and his team during the past year, and we’ve been impressed with the work they are doing,” PATH’s Amy Petty said Tuesday. Fauquier County has experienced 269 opiate overdoses, 66 of them fatal, since 2015, she said. “Over the summer, we learned more about the holistic approach to recovery offered at Herren Wellness and believe it could be a beneficial option. We know there’s not a singular solution to help those in need of recovery.” PATH funds a range of mental health/substance misuse programs in the community, among them: mental health first-aid training for law-enforcement agencies and for teachers; continuing mental-health education for primary care physicians; a daytime recovery center, Spiritworks; Fauquier Free Clinic’s telehealth psychiatry and counseling program; the

Lock Your Meds campaign; motivational speaker Chris Herren’s abuse prevention program in schools; naloxone anti-overdose medication for local law-enforcement agencies; and recovery services at the adult-detention center. A drug and alcohol abuse campaign is in the planning stage as well, Petty said. The Herren retreat would accommodate up to 24 guests on site as well as 12 full-time staff and eight parttime staff or contractors, according to a statement of justification filed by the foundation. The special-use permit application is expected to go before the county planning commission at its Dec. 20 meeting. The commission will hold a public hearing, then vote on a recommendation to the board of supervisors, although a final vote may not be taken at the December meeting. The county supervisors will hold their own hearing and then approve or deny the request. The foundation says the Warren-

ton retreat will be open to all with substance-abuse issues. If there’s a waiting list, residents from Fauquier, Rappahannock and Culpeper counties will have priority acceptance into the program. Herren Wellness Group offers life-coaching, education, fitness, sleep analysis, nutritional guidance and mindfulness strategies, according to the organization’s website. Guests at the Warrenton facility would have access to walking trails, a tennis court and pool. Existing landscaping and forest coverage would remain, according to the statement of justification. “The PATH Foundation recognizes that adding a spiritual wellness retreat to the list of available treatment options is one of many paths to recovery, for which there is no single solution,” the statement reads. Granger noted likewise, saying “one size doesn’t fit all.” For its part, the county and town of Warrenton have been working to convert a building at 340 Hospital Drive near Fauquier Hospital into a 30-day residential facility for recovering addicts. That facility would use a building currently occupied by the Rappahannock-Rapidan Community Services Board. It’s not yet known what organization would run the operation. The RRCSB would move to a building at 12 North Hill Drive. The supervisors last month authorized negotiations to purchase that building. On Thursday, Nov. 8, the board approved lending the RRCSB $458,333 toward the purchase and renovation of the 12 North Hill Drive building. The RRSCB is paying an additional $250,000 in cash. The county is contributing $708,333 as its 50-50 share. The RRCSB will repay the loan from the county over 20 years at 3.2 percent fixed interest.

Double homicide of Bealeton father, son remains under investigation HOMICIDE from page 1

The men were last heard from on the night of Wednesday, Nov. 7, when America Nguyen communicated with another family member on social media, Hartman reported. The elder Nguyen is reported to have worked as a cabinetmaker. NBC4 carried an interview on Mon-

day with Phil Shremshock, who said he worked with Duong Nguyen for years. Shremshock told the television station that he contacted the elder Nguyen’s wife and daughter, who were in Vietnam traveling when they received the news of the deaths. Over the weekend, law enforcement officers canvassed the neighborhood looking for anyone who

may have seen or heard anything suspicious, Hartman said. K-9 units were also used to search the area. Anyone with knowledge about Duong Nguyen and/or America Nguyen is asked to contact the sheriff’s office. Anyone with any information about this crime, or anyone with home security video or dashcam video from the area is asked to contact

the sheriff’s office at 540-347-3300 or Fauquier County Crime Solvers at 540-349-1000. A “Funeral Fund for the Nguyen Family” has been created at GoFundMe.com to raise donations with a goal of $15,000. Nearly $6,400 had been raised as of 12:15 p.m. Tuesday.

Let’s rumble! By John Hagarty

Contributing Writer

What if every vehicle in Fauquier County could magically possess a lifesaving safety feature? With no direct cost to the owner. “Sign me up,” would echo countywide. Well, rest easy, and take no action. Over the next three years driving throughout the Piedmont will be safer than ever before. The Virginia Department of Transportation is tasked with making that happen. VDOT has started a rumble fight that’s opposite of a word associated with harm. Instead, the department is saving lives and winning the opening rounds of an important roadway skirmish. Rumble strips have been around for more than half a century having first been installed on the Garden State Parkway in New Jersey in 1952. Typically embedded on the side of interstate highways, they alert inattentive drivers with a tactile vibration and audible rumbling transmitted through the vehicle wheels to the driver. If rumble strips could talk, their message would be, “You’re leaving your lane and headed for disaster.” The safety feature goes by numerous nicknames including sleep-

Call them what you may, but “guardian angels” might be the best moniker. A case could be made that for the last several decades installation of rumble strips on interstate highways was the reverse of where they first should have been installed. Why?

VDOT hopes to save lives one rumble strip at a time The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration advises twice as many highway deaths occur on rural roads than urban and suburban streets and highways. Nearly 55 percent of all on-road fatalities occur on rural roads yet fewer than 20 percent of the U. S. population resides in small towns and rural areas. One of the most dangerous acts any of us perform each day is getting behind the wheel and cruising through our scenic countryside. “Some of the things that make Virginia beautiful can also make our roadways fairly dangerous,” said Nathan Umberger. Umberger is VDOT’s Culpeper District traffic engineer and tasked with managing the district’s highway safety improvement program. “We look very closely at the amount of fatal crashes and crashes overall. We ascribe to vision zero deaths. We want all road users to arrive safely at their final destination.” Residents will notice with greater frequency either centerline or roadside rumble strips appearing on county roads in an effort to achieve that goal. From 2014 to 2018, there were 255 fatal crashes in the nine-county Culpeper District that stretches from Fauquier County to Albemarle County; virtually all of the

Piedmont. During that same period there were 67 fatalities in Fauquier County.

Cost and safety

There are numerous ways to improve roadway safety. These include widening pavement, clearing tree lines, grading and flattening slopes and other roadbed redesigns. But it comes with a high price tag. The cost-benefit-ratio of rumble strips is dramatic. “I can cover 40 or 50 miles of roads with rumble strips for $100,000. But $100,000 doesn’t even pay for a tenth of a mile for paving or other road changes,” said Umberger. “It’s a very cheap countermeasure. Our goal is to cover the entire Culpeper district over the next three years for somewhere between $2 and $3 million.” VDOT contractors perform the installation of the strips. At a price of 50 cents a foot, the installation cost covers traffic control, striping and any needed repainting of the road surface. The machine used to lay down the strips is a modified version of what is used to mill worn roadbeds in preparation for repaving. The machine has a similar grinding head that can be adjusted to a specific width, depth and spacing.

carving out dips in the roadbed that will produce the, “May I have your attention $ please,” sound. The machines are capable of covering up to 20 miles a day. Umberger points out the threeyear program will proceed with roadbeds that are in good surface condition. Application will not be undertaken with roads awaiting resurfacing since to do so would require reapplying the striping after the new paving occurred. In the Culpeper district there are 70 miles of interstate highways, 732 miles of primary roads and 4,153 miles of secondary roads. The interstates have had the strips for years and the goal is to have all targeted roads stripped by 2022. There will be no installation of rumble strips on residential streets or in neighborhoods.

RappCats is a private, non-profit organization that rescues, cares for, and finds loving homes for abandoned, abused, neglected, injured, and homeless cats and kittens throughout Rappahannock County.

Planning commission to consider request for water treatment facility for data center By James Ivancic Times Staff Writer

TIMES STAFF PHOTO/CHRISTOPHER SIX

Residents support nationwide demonstrations

More than 150 signed up to take part in Warrenton’s effort to join nationwide demonstrations by progressive groups in the wake of the firing of Attorney General Jeff Sessions, according to Fauquier Indivisible, organizer of the Nov. 8 event outside Eva Walker Memorial Park in Warrenton. Demonstrators demanded President Donald Trump do nothing to hinder the Mueller probe into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Handmade signs held by protesters included sayings such as “Protect Mueller and the Rule of Law,” “Traitor Trump,” and “Trump is Not Above the Law.” The crowd, which numbered at least 75 a half hour into the protest, chanted “Lock him up,” “Hey, hey, ho, Donald Trump has got to go,” “Tell me what democracy looks like — this is what democracy looks like,” “Investigate Trump — treason is the reason” and “What do we want — justice, when do we want it — now!” The event was scheduled to coincide with similar demonstrations held in Culpeper, Manassas, and Washington, D.C., according to a Fauquier Indivisible press release.

The Fauquier County Planning Commission on Thursday will consider a request for a special exception to allow an above-ground water-treatment and storage facility during development of the first phase of a data center site in Remington. Remington Technology Park will eventually be served by a permanent water treatment and storage facility. The technology park is on a 233acre parcel off Lucky Hill Road. The plan is to build six data centers over time occupying a total of 1.5 to 1.8 million square feet. “The project is multi-phased, and we guess it will take five to seven years to complete,” depending on the market for them, said Colin Clish, vice president of development for Point One, the Canadian firm developing the site. The first phase of development includes building two entrances to the site on Lucky Hill Road and constructing the first data center building at the northern boundary. The building will be about 310,000 square feet. Eventually, the site will be connected to public water once capac-

ity to do so is available from the Fauquier County Water and Sewer Authority. It will be served by public sewer through an extension of the existing systems located within The Meadows of Remington subdivision. Site work could begin in December or January if required approvals are received from the county, Virginia Department to Transportation, Virginia Department of Environmental Quality, Virginia Department of Health and others, Clish said. The planning commission will hold a public hearing Thursday on the special-exception request for the temporary water treatment and storage facility. The commission will also hold a public hearing on whether a proposed park with access to the Rappahannock River in the Marshall District is substantially in accord with the county’s comprehensive plan. The planning commission meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the first-floor meeting room of the Warren Green Building, 10 Hotel St., Warrenton. Reach James Ivancic at jivancic@fauquier.com

A request to revise the concept development plan for Vint Hill to accommodate data centers won unanimous approval from the Fauquier County Board of Supervisors on Nov. 8. “I think this application is helping us develop Vint Hill in a positive way,” said Scott District Supervisor Holder Trumbo, who represents Vint Hill on the board. Center District Supervisor Chris Granger said data centers seem to be something the community can live with. An earlier proposal to build additional houses was opposed in the community and was withdrawn by the applicant last December before it reached the supervisors for a decisive vote. “We’ve tried very hard in making a 180-degree about face,” said Charles Floyd of Welford Engineering, representing the applicant. Vint Hill Village LLC and Vint Hill Land 1 LLC own the land and EFO Capital Management Inc. is the applicant. “I believe we’re in a better place.” He said Vint Hill and businesses will have a say in the architectural appearance of the date center buildings. Floyd was the only speaker during a public hearing that preced-

ed the vote. The measure came to the supervisors with a recommendation from the county planning commission for adoption. The area proposed for data centers is north of Vint Hill Parkway. Vint Hill is a former U.S. Army communications base that was closed during the 1990s. Buildings formerly used by the military have been converted to various business and retail uses. The Brookside housing community borders Vint Hill on side. Vint Hill Estates borders another side. The revised plan allows an additional 751,265 square feet of development, raising the total to 3,901,624 square feet. All of the new construction will be within three land bays that data centers would occupy. The applicant’s statement of justification filed in September said that it has been working with Northern Virginia Electric Cooperative to place a substation at Vint Hill with all underground conduits already placed in the ground from the Wheeler Substation in Prince William County to Vint Hill. It’s also been working to improve the fiber network at Vint Hill, connect it to the existing fiber network in Prince William County on Linton Hall Road, and to secure a second fiber connection to Gainesville.

OPINION WWW.FAUQUIER.COM

Fauquier Times | November 14, 2018

Every day is Veterans Day It was a touching tribute this year when, on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, bells rang out to signal the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I. It was in 1945, World War II veteran Raymond Weeks, recognized as the father of Veterans Day, brought the idea to expand Armistice Day to celebrate all veterans to Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, who gave his support. So while today we know Nov. 11 as Veterans Day, it has its roots in Armistice Day, which is how it is still celebrated in much of the world, thus making this day in particular, marking a century since the guns fell silent, a momentous occasion. The First World War, known then simply as The Great War, had a profound impact on the world we would come to know today. It brought an end to gentlemanly Victorian innocence and ideals; it launched the Soviet Union; it propelled the United States onto the world stage, laying the groundwork of a superpower; it put into place postwar conditions in Germany that would ultimately lead to the rise of OUR VIEW Nazism; and it drew lines in the sands of the Middle East that would lead to many of the conflicts we know today. But one thing the “War to End all Wars” failed to do was that: end war. And for us, here in America, we have veterans from many wars to thank. And while Veterans Day is meant to mark those who served and came home, it is right to pause and remember those who did not, and those who still serve. This day, if not every day, it is important to remember we are a nation at war this very moment. Since 2001, we have been at war in Afghanistan. “The Forever War” has been waged long enough that seniors in high school have never known a time when we have not been at war, and it doesn’t appear that will change any time soon. All that has the effect of desensitizing the nation to what we ask, what we expect, the men and women of our armed forces to do on a daily basis. It is easy to forget they are half a world away facing life and death situations while we bicker over dinner, sports or the controversy of the week. It is easy to rattle sabers and make veiled threats globally, or right here at home. It is easy to dismiss veterans as damaged goods when they have difficulty reintegrating into society. It is easy to forget. We must be vigilant. We need to make sure our veterans get the treatment they deserve, that they have earned, when they return home. We must hold leadership accountable. We need to require an endgame to our military actions, so that our longest war is not waged with no end. We must return to a time when war was so horrific, it was something to be avoided, not something that is simply a fact of life. This Veterans Day, let’s not put away our concerns and thanks when the day is done and we put away the flag. Every day is Veterans Day.

FAUQUIER FLASHBACKS: FROM THE FAUQUIER TIMES In February 1961, Mrs. Ian S. Montgomery and daughter Sheila, 11, prepare two of their Shetland ponies for the beginning of a promotional tour before the Kentucky Derby. The animals were loaded on a Volkswagen van at Rapparidge Farm, the Montgomery home west of Warrenton.

75 Years Ago Nov. 18, 1943 Governor Colgate Darden was the speaker at the dedication of the Fauquier County Honor Board in ceremonies held Nov. 11 at the Courthouse in Warrenton. He was introduced by Rep. Howard W. Smith, and the program opened by Robert Green, commander of the John D. Sudduth Post of the American Legion. Mr. Green introduced Charles O. Pratt, president of the Warrenton Rotary Club, which erected the Honor Roll Board— which lists the names of over 1,400 county citizens serving in the military — and donated it to the county. The first war bond for night work on surgical dressings was awarded to Mrs. John Sudduth with 52 hours. Mrs. John Thoma was second with 29 hours and 35 minutes, followed by Mrs. J. W. Fletcher with 29 hours and 30 minutes. 50 Years Ago Nov. 21, 1968 SP5 Gordon Haines Jr. of Midland has been awarded the Air Medal for heroism in flight while serving as a doorgunner with the 10th Air Cavalry in Viet Nam. On a reconnaissance mission, Sp5 Haines located several enemy field packs on the ground, which led him to a large enemy bunker complex nearby, and

fired on the enemy positions. Several large explosions occurred. A county highway safety commission has been established, and five members appointed last week by the Board of Supervisors. Named were Commonwealth’s Attorney John Alexander, who will serve as chairman; Paul Gwin, administrative assistant to the School Board; Supervisor James F. Austin, Police Chief H. B.

Highflyer Arms forged at the edge of space

Warrenton veteran chambers third career as gun shop owner

By John Hagarty

Contributing Writer

Flying for the better part of a day at 70,000 feet qualifies as one remarkable job. Throw in the fact you’re piloting a U-2 spy plane in the 60-degree-below-zero stratosphere on missions worldwide and you’d be hard pressed to lose the, “So, what did you do for a living?” contest. And yet, in a quiet gun shop on 5th Street in Old Town Warrenton, there is a certified gunsmith selling highend firearms whose resume belies a career that is the envy of many a wannabe adventurer. Meet Dave Russell, 53, sans helmet and flight suit, who would argue his 24 years in the United States Air Force was never thrill-seeking but dedicated service to the nation. “My father was in the Air Force and retired from Luke Air Force Base from where we settled in 1983. I attended the Air Force Academy graduating in 1987,” said Russell. He went on to pilot training in Mississippi and became a T-38 instructor for four years. “I was a second lieutenant teaching other second lieutenants. That was interesting.” It was also an early signal of a man on the move. From there he spent seven years flying AWACs, the Air Force’s longrange radar surveillance and control center aircraft. Think of a modified Boeing 707 with a huge pancake mounted on the rear of the fuselage. A plane with eyes and ears. “I flew in the Middle East, Central America, the Pacific and a lot of places in between. It involved service from Desert Storm to Operation Southern Watch to three missions tracking Russia bombers flying in American airspace. I held all the pilot positions during that period with a crew of 40 on board,” said Russell. In a big jump up the career ladder he was then accepted into the U-2 program and spent a decade piloting the sophisticated aircraft based out of California. For the more “experienced” among us, the U-2 is associated with the dramatic downing of the spy plane in 1960 piloted by Francis Gary Powers. Today, there are some 33 such aircraft in operation with at least one flying somewhere round the clock. Missions can span a wide range of objectives, including combating ISIS and other terrorist organizations. The high-tech cameras and sensors on board can detect a human figure at 70,000 feet. Asked to describe a notable U-2 assignment he said there were many

They also offer gunsmithing services and discounts for veterans. but not enough time to describe them. Pushed further, he offered as a brief example, the surveillance of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. “After Katrina, I flew the first sortie over New Orleans sending imagery film back to FEMA and other disaster relief people. The images showed the extent of damage and what roads weren’t flooded so relief workers could find clear avenues of approach,” said Russell. To emphasize the technology used, film was again shot at 70,000 feet. Why not closer? Because the camera equipment is focused for use at high altitude and can achieve the broadest area of coverage. His last U-2 flight was in 2007 and after military retirement he went on to other work in the intel community spending six years as a defense contractor.

Gun shop

After circling the globe for three decades, Russell chose to settle down in Warrenton and turned an avocation into a small business. Highflyer Arms is aptly named after his sky-high career. Why gun sales? “When I was a young man in high school I was on the rifle team and in the ROTC. I shot every day through my high school years. I picked up an affection for firearms and for working on them,” said Russell.

Highflyer Arms owner Dave Russell, a former pilot, heralds from a military career that had him flying reconnaissance aircraft.

During his years at the Air Force Academy he also instructed cadets on firearms use. If ever a job after his military career was foreordained, it was in gun sales and repair. He opened his shop, at 17 S. 5th St., Suite #O, in April 2004. “I’m certified in gunsmithing so we also have a smithing operation,” that enables customers to have repairs done on their firearms in addition to purchasing a wide selection of guns. His four employees are all veterans. While rifles and shotguns are part of the shop’s stock, they are not a big segment of the business. Today, many buyers are interested in handguns for home and personal defense. See HIGHFLYER, page 14

Engraving

Russell is aware of the controversial role handguns play in today’s society but makes a case of their use in law and order. “Virginia is a welcoming environment for concealed carry weapons and the vast majority of citizens are doing so safely and lawfully. There are studies showing where lawfully armed citizens engaged an active shooter, the situation was resolved faster than if there had been no one to intervene and counterattack. “We have seen a growth in concealed firearms because Virginia allows it,” said Russell.

A natural outgrowth of the gun shop is a new business both he and his wife Angie recently opened called Flying High Engraving. Again, his U-2 career provides the name for the new shop located across the hall from the gun shop. “Instead of sending engraving jobs out we now can do the work ourselves.” The idea for the new venture came because Angie and her parents and brothers had been involved in engraving. The Russells were looking to expand their business and engraving both firearms and a host of other items was a natural fit.

Almost any object can be highly personalized by the professional engraving available at the shop, including trophies, coffee mugs, coasters, mementos and more. So, what’s next for the Russell family who seemingly have not slowed their pace of achievements since the beginning? “We are going to continue to run both these shops for a while and at some point, retire and spend time with our kids and grandkids,” said Russell.

The couple have two daughters and three grandchildren who live out of state. Both daughters are married to military men so it’s obvious the rest of this story is yet to be written.

Summit Financial Group reports third-quarter results On Oct. 25, Summit Financial Group, Inc. reported record third quarter 2018 net income of $6.90 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, compared to $5.93 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2017, an increase of 16.3 percent, or 14.6 percent per diluted share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Summit recorded net income of $20.62 million, or $1.66 per diluted share, compared with $9.59 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, for the comparable 2017 nine-month period, representing an increase of 115 percent or 104.9 percent per diluted share. The lower earnings in the 2017 period were principally attributable to a legal settlement during first quarter 2017 which reduced earnings by $0.54 per diluted share. At Sept. 30, 2018, total assets were $2.14 billion, an increase of $4.5 million, or 0.2 percent since

December 31, 2017. “I am very pleased to report that Summit achieved record third quarter earnings for the quarter just ended. Further, I am particularly gratified by this past quarter’s robust lending activity, solid deposit growth and strong core operating performance, and I optimistically look forward to the remainder of the year and beyond into 2019 as we seek to be a consistent, high-performing community banking institution. Our pending acquisition of Peoples Bankshares, Inc., expected to close at beginning of 2019, will serve to combine Summit with a financially strong bank that has a similar culture, core values and guiding principles as ours, and shares the same commitment to build long- term client relationships by providing ‘Service Beyond Expectations’,” said H.

Natural farming has real world benefits Young’s book gives a boost to bovine behavior

Rosamund Young has written a book about “The Secret Life of Cows.”

Who doesn’t want to know another’s inner thoughts? Although an age-old fascination, the diversion is now a publishing phenomenon. Consider, “The Hidden Life of Trees,” published in September 2016. Yes, the trees are talking and they really do feel and communicate. Please read it, you will never look at a tree the same way. In March of this year, “The Inner Life of Cats,” was published but, since I am not a cat lover, let’s skip over it and go straight to “The Secret Life of Cows.” Because I love cows and so does British writer Rosamund Young. Her short and sweet ode to the bovine was first published in the U.K. in the fall of 2017. Of course, it became a best seller and was published in the U.S. in June. Since 1953, Young’s family decided their cows and other farm animals should roam free at their organic Kite’s Nest Farm in Worcestershire, England. Young has given her cows names when anthropomorphizing is almost a crime in traditional agriculture. She gives them the opportunity to develop inner lives and secure

Share your financial abundance with your family Thanksgiving is almost here. Ideally, this holiday should be about more than turkey, football, Black Friday and Cyber Monday. After all, the idea behind Thanksgiving is to share what we have with our loved ones. But if you want your family to take part in your abundance, you will want to look beyond one day in November. To help ensure you leave the type of legacy you desire, you will need to follow a detailed plan of action, including these steps:

Review your estate plans.

If you haven’t done so already, take this opportunity to review your plans for managing your estate – and if you haven’t yet drawn them up, it’s never too soon to start. You may want to work with a legal professional to create a will, living trust and other documents essential to your plan.

Preserve your financial independence.

If your financial independence were to be jeopardized, your adult children might be forced to use their own resources to help support you – an outcome you obviously would never want. How can you protect yourself and your financial assets? For one thing, it’s a good idea to

propriate for your needs.

Share your wishes with your family. SARAH ATKINS work with your legal professional to create a power of attorney, which would enable someone – possibly a grown child – to make financial decisions for you, should you become incapacitated. Also, you may want to guard yourself against the devastating costs of long-term care, such as an extended nursing home stay. Consider this: The average annual cost for a private room in a nursing home is more than $97,000, according to a survey by the insurance company Genworth. Furthermore, Medicare typically pays very little for these expenses. Consequently, you may want to consider protecting yourself in advance by purchasing long-term care insurance or permanent life insurance with a long-term care provision. A financial professional can help you evaluate your options and recommend which ones might be ap-

It can take some time to put your plans in place – and, even then, you may need to make changes periodically, based on altered circumstances in your life, such as changes in your marital status, new family members, new property, etc. In any case, as your estateand legacy-based plans evolve, you’ll want to communicate them to your family – because, by doing so, you can help spare them some potentially unpleasant surprises when it’s time to settle your estate. Also, by making your wishes known to your family far ahead of when any action needs to be taken, you’ll help prepare the right people for the roles you wish them to assume – power of

attorney, executor of your estate, and so on. You’ll also want to acquaint your family with the legal, tax and financial professionals you’ve selected to work on your estate and legacy plans. By introducing these professionals early on, you can provide your family members with a greater degree of confidence in the overall estate-planning process. Thanksgiving goes by in a blur. But by taking the steps described above, along with others, you can demonstrate the spirit of sharing with your family for years – and possibly generations – to come.

Ferguson’s catch in second OT lifts Kettle Run past Millbrook 20-14 in region quarters By Jeff Malmgren

NEXT GAME

Times Staff Writer

A wet and muddy field often kept the Kettle Run and Millbrook quarterbacks from making crisp connections with their receivers Friday. So the Cougars used a middle man in their 20-14 double overtime win over the visiting Pioneers in the Class 4 Region C quarterfinals last Friday. Two Millbrook defenders stood in the way of Cougar Shannon Ferguson, who made the winning catch on a 10-yard pass from Gabe Chumley. One of them, Daniel Torres, reached up for what looked like a relatively easy interception. Instead, the ball glanced off his hands and up into the air. Then it softly landed in the cradled arms of a backpedaling Ferguson. “My dream since I was a little kid,” Ferguson said. “This will be my forever-memory on this field. I can’t even think straight right now.” The third-seeded Cougars (10-1) won a regional quarterfinal for the second straight year and advanced to meet No. 2 Sherando (9-1) Friday in the region semis. Kettle Run’s 10 wins is their most since an 11-3 state semifinal run in 2011. They also won the “Fauquier County championship” for the second consecutive season by beating Liberty and Fauquier High. But the double overtime playoff win is superior Kettle Run senior

Walt Thompson and Kettle Run’s defense held Millbrook to 134 yards of offense Friday. Chris Kallighan said. “The best football memory I’ll ever have, and on the last game we play here,” Kallighan said. After the Cougars rushed onto the field and piled on top of Ferguson in the end zone, Kettle Run and Millbrook’s players went through a handshake line. Then many of the Pioneers paused during their walks back to the team huddle. Some bent over with their hands on their knees and chins tucked. Others squatted on the turf. They looked like the tree-stump remnants of a razed forest. But the Cougars didn’t bulldoze Millbrook. The defenses of both teams dominated, combining for a 33-minute span off scoreless regulation, and three scoreless possessions in overtime. In the second overtime period,

Millbrook took the first possession from the 10-yard line. On first down, the Pioneers threw a touchdown pass that appeared to give them a 2014 lead, but an illegal motion penalty negated that play. “I think right then and there people on the defense knew it was over,” Kalligan said. Millbrook “started crumbling.” Two more penalties immediately followed, giving the Pioneers a firstand-goal situation from the 25-yard line. They never crossed the 23-yard line, so Kettle Run’s defense set up Ferguson for the winning score. “Those games are exciting,” Cougars coach Charlie Porterfield said. “They might take a little bit of time off your life, but that’s why we coach. It’s OK.” The Cougars held Millbrook to only 134 yards of offense while amassing 12 tackles-for-loss. Andrew Adair led them with at least three tackles-for-loss and a fumble recovery, while adding at least two tackles-for-loss each were Logan Morris (fumble recovery), Walton Thompson and Mark Southard. Kalligan added the Cougars’ lone sack of the game, which broke a Kettle

Run record for single-season sacks. He now has 11 sacks as a senior, eclipsing the 10 Jared Little made in 2017. “It means more than anything,” Kalligan said of breaking the record. “I’ve had a lot of guys help mentor me, like Andrew Pickett and Jared Little, who both have their sack records. “I wanted to be up there with those guys,” Kalligan said. “I just wanted that record to my name.” Offensively, Chumley completed only 14-of-29 passes for 162 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. Ferguson led with six receptions for 109 yards, while Cade Campbell had 51 yards on 11 carries and Ridge Scott had 32 yards on 14 runs.

ALL HAIL WYATT TELLER

Wyatt moves into Bills starting lineup

Former Eagle becomes Fauquier County’s first to play in NFL By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer

Fauquier County has sent two players to Major League Baseball, one to the NBA and one to the WNBA. But the NFL was uncharted waters until Nov. 4, 2018, when Wyatt Teller made history by becoming Fauquier County’s first NFL player. The 2013 Liberty High graduate played on 19 percent of the Bills’ offensive snaps in the Buffalo Bills’ 41-9 loss to the Chicago Bears. Teller spelled Vlad Ducasse at left guard from time to time, then started in a Week 10 win vs. the New York Jets. At least two other Fauquier County graduates signed professional contracts as free agents but did make NFL squads.

One can call it coincidence, but the Buffalo Bills had their best offensive performance of the NFL season Sunday with rookie lineman Wyatt Teller making the first start of his professional career. A 2013 Liberty High graduate and 2018 Virginia Tech graduate, the 6-foot-4, 315-pound Teller started at left guard for the Bills, who posted a season-high point total during a 41-10 win over New York Jets. They entered the day averaging only 10.7 points per game with Teller inactive until playing off the bench for the first time Nov. 4 during a 41-9 loss to Chicago. “He’s got the toughness,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said after that loss to the Bears, according to the Buffalo News. “He’s a strong player; young. I thought he did some good things last week in his first opportunity in a real game. I think he’s progressing.” Teller, Buffalo’s 2018 fifth-round pick, began practicing with the Bills’ first team following that loss to the Bears. He then replaced Vlad Ducasse in the starting lineup against the Jets, helping the Bills improve to 3-7. “It was nice going against starters in the NFL,” Teller said after his playing debut Nov. 4, according to the Buffalo News. “It was really cool. It was surreal. It’s kind of a dream come true. Ever since I was 5 years old I’ve always wanted to play at this level. “These are grown men,” he told the Buffalo News. “These are 10, 12-year vets you’re going against. ... In college you’re like oh my god that’s the fastest guy I’ve seen; that’s the biggest guy. Then you get here and I’m the slowest guy. I’m not even the strongest guy anymore. It’s weird. But iron sharpens iron. It’s part of the process. You have to take it in stride.” Teller led all Buffalo players Sunday by playing 73 snaps without a penalty. He helped the Bills produced a 100-yard rusher in a game for the first time this season as LeSean McCoy ran for 113 yards and two touchdowns on 26 carries. Previously, against the Bears, Teller played 17 snaps without a quarterback pressure, according to Pro Football Focus (PFF). So he earned a PFF pass-blocking grade of 84.4 with a 59.2 run-blocking grade.

‘Playing their hearts out’

After five tense sets, Falcon volleyball falls at Blacksburg in state quarters By Fred Hodge

Special to the Times

Seeking its first state semifinal berth since 2003, the Fauquier volleyball team saw a dogged rally attempt fall short in a 26-24, 2519, 22-25, 23-25, 15-9 loss to host Blacksburg High. Saturday’s loss to the Bruins (24-2) in the Class 4 quarterfinals ended Fauquier’s season at 20-6, which tied for the third-highest single-season victory total since the program began in 1980. “In the first set, it came down to who finished it stronger. It was that type of ballgame,” coach Diana Story said. The opening set featured big swings as Blacksburg posted an early 7-3 lead only to see the Falcons respond with an 8-1 blitz to lead 11-8. The set was tied 18-18, with Fauquier later taking a 24-23 edge, needing a single point to capture the set. But Blacksburg recorded the next three points for a 1-0 set lead. The second set was also tight as Fauquier trailed 18-17 before the hosts recorded seven of the final nine points to win 25-19 and pull

Fauquier trailed 23-22 before they finished strongly with the final three points to force a decisive fifth set. Blacksburg bolted to a quick 5-0 margin to start the last set, leading to consternation on the Falcon bench. “All of a sudden, you are down 5-0, and you’re ‘OK, this is 15 points to game, girls. You’d better get going,’” Story said of her response. Fauquier closed to 9-7, but “We just couldn’t hold. We went there and

fought like hell. It was just points here and points there that made the difference,” Story said. The season-ending loss halted a nine-match Falcon winning streak and evoked the expected emotional reaction. “The bottom line is I walked away a teary mess,” Story admitted as seven seniors will leave the fold, including a trio of four-year veterans. “They left that game playing their hearts out. They can walk away proud of what they have done.” Tuesday’s semifinal matchups have Loudoun County at Blacksburg and Warhill at Grafton. The state final is Friday at William & Mary.

FHS boys take fourth in state cross country By Fred Hodge

Special to the Times

Fauquier’s boys harriers faced off against the best Virginia Class 4 has to offer and came away holding their heads high after taking fourth in a talented field at Saturday’s state cross country meet at Great Meadow. “It was a great day. I’m proud of them,” said coach Quentin Jones. A Loudoun Valley win was the foregone conclusion, and the Vikings easily cruised to first by grabbing

first through fourth and sixth to score 16 points, one shy of a perfect score. Midlothian was second with 97 points, followed by Blacksburg (105) and Fauquier (156). The Falcons’ top runner was senior Nick Matthews, who was 17th of 104 runners in 16 minutes, 53 seconds. Loudoun Valley All-American Sam Affolder, a University of Washington recruit, won in 15:30, 27 seconds faster than teammate Jacob Hunter. Matthews had done well in the postseason slate with his propensity

to go out hard early to avoid the jumble of the pack. The Northwestern District champion and Region 4C’s No. 7 runner also was quick out of the gate Saturday in his bid to crack the top 15 and earn all-state honors. Matthews’ time was 10 seconds slower than the 15th runner. “In the district and regional races, he was able to run his race,” Jones said. “I’m thinking he thought ‘I’m going to make things happen and see what happens.’ “Maybe he should have settled in

more, relaxed and let someone else do the early work. “Then he could jump out and begin rolling.” Still, Jones emphasized, the senior’s finish in a very tough field is notable. The other state competitors for Fauquier were Brian Bolles (28th, 17:17), John Paccassi (38th, 17:28), Kyle St. Clair (57th, 17:49), Nick VonTomaszewski (62nd, 17:56), Ryan Godfrey (71st, 18:06) and Stephen Hiner (83rd, 18:26).

Loudoun County sweeps Fauquier for region volleyball crown By Fred Hodge

Special to the Times

Fate seemly pre-ordains the Fauquier volleyball team face the superpower Loudon County Raiders sometime during the regional tournament, and lose. They met last Thursday with the Raiders beating Fauquier 25-12, 25-23, 25-17 in the Class 4 Region C final. The loss hurt Fauquier’s state quarterfinal prospects, sending the Falcons on the road to Blacksburg. “You have to play with them or above them to beat them. You cannot expect them to make the errors,” Fauquier coach Diana Story said.

Megan Constantino and the Fauquier Falcons finished as the 4C Region runner-up. The first set stood at 2-2 before Region 4C Player of the Year Megan Bukala broke the game open with a

seven-point service run. Using an extremely high toss to unleash a highly effective jump serve, Bukala had four aces and seven total points later as Loudoun took a 9-2 lead and pulled away. Bukala’s serve “set us back on our heels for a while,” Story said. “You can’t fight from behind against Loudoun County.” The Falcons recouped with seven second-set ties as the score reached 22-22. The Raiders forced a side out for a one-point edge, and Bukala followed with a kill. A service error gave the ball back to Fauquier at 24-23, but Bukala sent a soft shot off a diving defender into the middle of the Fal-

con defense for set point. “We had them worried, but we made a couple of mistakes down the stretch that hurt us,” Story said. “When you get into a game like that you have to be aggressive and be smart. You can’t lose focus.” The Falcons’ Megan Constantino’s opening service provided a 3-0 third-set lead, but Raider Chandler Vaughan helped Loudoun regroup to lead 6-4 as the margin slowly increased. “They literally are a machine. They are solid all the way around,” Story said. “You just have to be prepared. Our mental game was not ready for them.”

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF AN APPLICATION BY VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY FOR REVISION OF RATE ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE: RIDER US-2, SCOTT, WHITEHOUSE, AND WOODLAND SOLAR POWER STATIONS CASE NO. PUR-2018-00167 •Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion”) has applied to update its Rider US-2 by which it recovers the costs of three solar power stations. •Dominion requests $16,251,497 for its 2019 Rider US-2. According to Dominion, this amount would increase a typical residential customer’s bill using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by $0.07. •A Hearing Examiner appointed by the Commission will hear the case on March 19, 2019. •Further information about this case is available on the SCC website at: http://www.scc.virginia.gov/case. On October 3, 2018, Virginia Electric and Power Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion” or “Company”), pursuant to § 56-585.1 A 6 of the Code of Virginia, filed with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) an annual update with respect to the Company’s rate adjustment clause, Rider US-2 (“Application”). Through its Application, the Company seeks to recover costs associated with (i) the Scott Solar Facility, a 17 megawatt (“MW”) (nominal alternating current (“AC”)) facility located in Powhatan County; (ii) Whitehouse Solar Facility, a 20 MW AC facility located in Louisa County; and (iii) Woodland Solar Facility, a 19 MW AC facility located in Isle of Wight County (collectively, “2016 Solar Projects” or “Projects”). In Case No. PUE-2015-00104, the Commission approved construction of the 2016 Solar Projects. In conjunction therewith, the Commission also approved a rate adjustment clause, designated Rider US-2, which allowed Dominion to recover costs associated with the development of the Projects, including projected construction work in progress and any associated allowance for funds used during construction. In this proceeding, Dominion has asked the Commission to approve Rider US-2 for the rate year beginning September 1, 2019, and ending August 31, 2020 (“2019 Rate Year”). The two key components of the proposed total revenue requirement for the 2019 Rate Year are the Projected Cost Recovery Factor and the Actual Cost True-Up Factor. The Company is requesting a Projected Cost Recovery Factor revenue requirement of $9,212,151 and an Actual Cost True-Up Factor revenue requirement of $7,039,346. Thus, the Company is requesting a total revenue requirement of $16,251,497 for service rendered during the 2019 Rate Year. For purposes of calculating the Projected Cost Recovery Factor in this case, Dominion proposes a rate of return on common equity (“ROE”) of 9.2%, which it states is supported by the Commission’s Final Order in Case No. PUR-2017-00038. For purposes of calculating the Actual Cost True-Up Factor, the Company utilized an ROE of 9.6% for the months of January 2017 through March 2017, which was approved by the Commission in its Final Order in Case No. PUE-2015-00104, an ROE of 9.4% for the period of April 1, 2017, through November 28, 2017, which was approved by the Commission in its Order in Case No. PUE-2016-00113, and an ROE of 9.2% for the period of November 29, 2017, through December 31, 2017, which was approved by the Commission in its 2017 ROE Order. If the proposed Rider US-2 for the 2019 Rate Year is approved, the impact on customer bills would depend on the customer’s rate schedule and usage. According to Dominion, implementation of its proposed Rider US-2 on September 1, 2019, would increase the monthly bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by approximately $0.07. The Company proposes a change in the methodology for the calculation of a certain allocation factor beginning in 2018 to recognize the output of certain non-utility generators to be used to allocate cost responsibility to the Virginia jurisdiction. In addition, with the exception of the removal of certain Federal and retail choice customers from the Virginia jurisdiction, the Company indicates it has calculated the proposed Rider US-2 rates in accordance with the same methodology as used for rates approved by the Commission in the most recent Rider US-2 proceeding, Case No. PUR-2017-00127. Interested persons are encouraged to review the Application and supporting documents for the details of these and other proposals. TAKE NOTICE that the Commission may apportion revenues among customer classes and/or design rates in a manner differing from that shown in the Application and supporting documents and thus may adopt rates that differ from those appearing in the Company’s Application and supporting documents. The Commission entered an Order for Notice and Hearing that, among other things, scheduled a public hearing on March 19, 2019, at 10 a.m., in the Commission’s second floor courtroom located in the Tyler Building, 1300 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, to receive testimony from members of the public and evidence related to the Application from the Company, any respondents, and the Commission’s Staff.

JUNIOR NORTH AMERICAN FIELD HUNTER CHAMPIONSHIP

Georgia’s Currier rides clean in Orlean By Betsy Burke Parker Special to the Times

Ashleigh Currier is no stranger to the pressures of national competition. Yet, despite top 10 showings the last four years, the 15-year-old ninth grader from Georgia had never won her division in the Junior North American Field Hunter Championship. Until Saturday. Riding her three-quarter thoroughbred/one-quarter Clydesdale gelding, Quint, Currier wowed the three-judge panel in the First Flight division to claim the coveted national title in the three-phase competition hosted by the Old Dominion Hounds in Orlean. Representing Georgia’s Belle Meade Hunt, a slightly breathless Currier juggled an armful of trophies, ribbons and prizes after being named best. “I’m so excited. I can’t believe it, really. I mean, I’ve done well a bunch of times, but today we really did it. We really did it,” Currier said. One of more than 70 young finalists that earned the championship billet at regional qualifying hunt meets, Currier topped a field of 20 in the headline division, impressing the judges in each phase. “She was nearly perfect. She had to be,” Master of Foxhounds Association director David Twiggs said of Currier’s performance in the opening hack class, a mock foxhunt and an eight-obstacle handy hunter test. “It came down to the last phase. The level of skill was that high.” The junior championship was created in 2002, based on the long established North American Field Hunter Championship for adults. Hunts in Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Kentucky, Alabama, Tennessee, Illinois, Massachusetts, Ohio, North, South Carolina and even Washington hosted qualifying meets. Though the prizes are part of it, organizers want lessons learned throughout the series to be about more than just winning. “We’ve got to appreciate the open land we ride across,” said series co-creator Douglas Stuart, who started the event in 2002 with Blue Ridge Hunt’s Iona Pillion. “It’s easy to take all this (open space and conservation land) for granted. If we instill appreciation for protecting open space in these young riders, we’ve done our job.” “The championships are important to the development of these juniors past the hunt field,” said Michelle Arnold, co-organizer of the Junior North American Championships with Marion Chungo. “Foxhunting teaches manners, the importance of wiping your boots before you come in the

You learn to be courteous, you learn to speak to adults, don’t mumble, make eye contact when you talk. You shake hands and try to remember to put your napkin in your lap. “These are important lessons for a child to learn, and this is a great way to do it.

A perfect pair for a swap One woman’s kidney gives another man new life

Some stats on end-stage kidney disease According to the U.S. Renal Data Systems Annual Data Report, 660,000 Americans are being treated for kidney failure. Of those, 468,000 are dialysis patients; 193,000 have a functioning kidney transplant. Seven percent of Medicare’s budget goes to dialysis patients. Cost for dialysis per patient is $72,000 plus each year.

Thanksgiving is next week. Many of us will gather around family tables to celebrate with relatives and friends. Others of us will head to restaurants for this annual holiday. It is a special time of the year when focused thoughts are on our blessings giving our burdens a lessened priority. For two Fauquier residents, this Thanksgiving is especially meaningful. For those of you who know Marianne Clyde, who heads up the Marianne Clyde Center for Holistic Psychotherapy, you know that her involvement in the community is widespread. Her good works have touched many from her coordination of the annual Generosity Feeds event to her active involvement with the Fauquier Chamber of Commerce. More recently she created the Be the Change Foundation where women are encouraged to learn about building or enhancing their businesses. It’s about empowerment and inspiration. One of her friends and professional colleagues, Nina May, produces films. Look for Marianne donning head scarf and sunglasses. Do I see motorcycles? She’s jumped out of airplanes and traveled to foreign countries to help the less fortunate. So, when she learned that a fellow participant in one of the chamber’s Lead Share groups needed a kidney, it took her no time to respond. “Well, I’ve got two,” she said. “So, why not give one away?” Lake Lester works out of his home in southern Fauquier with a business called Court Clothing. He fashions men’s suits and other wardrobe items for all occasions. It’s an artform that he has perfected and has a loyal clientele. He knew Clyde from their professional gatherings but was surprised and delighted when she approached him with her plan of giving him one of her kidneys since she knew that he needed one. From there the two underwent a series of tests to see if they were a match. They weren’t, but with a willing donor and a willing recipient there was an opportunity.

Let’s exchange

The MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute performs more kidney transplants than all other D.C.-metro programs combined. With more than 50 years of experience, they can offer a full array of transplant options. One of those is the Paired Kidney Exchange Program. This program assists donor and recipient pairs who are incompatible or poorly matched with each other to find another donor and recipient pair or pairs with whom they can exchange kidneys. With Clyde’s willingness to donate one of her kidneys it put Lester higher on the list to receive one. His wait would be shortened considerably. There is no cost to participate in the Paired Kidney Exchange Program and there are no payments or compensation of any kind for participating. According to the MedStar website, the fastest way to receive a kidney transplant is a living-donor kidney

Marianne Clyde and Lake Lester transplant. This may make it possible for patients to stop dialysis sooner or even to avoid starting dialysis. Lester was spending a good portion of every week undergoing dialysis treatments. He had been on dialysis for a year before the transplant. His kidneys were failing him. Originally diagnosed at Stage 3, his kidney disease had moved on to Stage 5. With a live donor, like Clyde, his chances for receiving a compatible kidney was a true, life-saving gift. On Aug. 2, Clyde and Lester lay side by side in hospital beds in Georgetown. The night before they had dined with their respective spouses at a restaurant in Old Town Warrenton. “No, my wife hasn’t met Marianne,” said Lester in a videotaped interview with the Fauquier Times. And, the same was true of Marianne’s husband, Bob. He hadn’t met Lester. But the four of them got together to meet each other. It was a celebratory meal. Clyde and Lester learned that her kidney went to a local person and his kidney came from a donor in Pennsylvania. The surgeries were successful. It only took Clyde a few days before she was up and active. To date, functioning on one kidney doesn’t seem to have slowed her down at all. For Lester, his new kidney was looking for the right home. It didn’t take long for him to get some relief. “I am doing great,” said Lester, who follows up with Georgetown once a week. For Clyde, coming up with solutions is part of her DNA. She’s done it many times in many different arenas. She is not self-serving. Her acts are done sincerely and with heart and care. In this case, a body part was needed, and she had one to give. For her, it was really a very simple act. For Lester, it’s given him a new lease on life and he will be forever grateful for her gift of life. Happy Thanksgiving!

What causes end-stage kidney disease?

High blood pressure and diabetes are the main causes of ESKD. Half of the individuals with kidney disease have diabetes with 14 percent of the population affected. Women are more likely than men to have Stage 1 through Stage 4. Stages of kidney disease are measured by Glomerular Filtration Rate which indicates how the kidneys filter waste and extra fluids from the body. Kidney disease often has no symptoms in its early stages and can go undetected until it is very advanced. It is referred to as a silent disease. Kidney disease is detected by a blood test. If you are a diabetic, have high blood pressure, obese, or smoke you are at risk of having kidney disease. It is more prevalent in African Americans, Native Americans, and Asian Americans.

Looking at the transplant list

More than 100,000 are currently awaiting kidney transplants. On average, 3,000 new patients are added to the wait list each month. Donors may indicate on their driver’s licenses if they wish to donate their kidney or other organs. Donor organs are matched to waiting recipients by a national computer registry called the National Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network. The network is operated by an organization known as the United Network for Organ Sharing.

First Concert for the Animals raises more than $10,000 for senior dogs By Andrew Moss

Special to the Times

The pews were packed for the first “Concert for Animals: A Pop Music Songbook” on Oct. 26 at Grace Episcopal Church in The Plains. Despite a driving rain storm that night, an estimated 150 people turned out for this inaugural event to support Gray Face Acres Senior Dog Rescue and Retreat in Haymarket. The event raised more than $10,000 for the care and support of the organization. Former longtime Fox 5 news anchor and reporter and two-time Emmy winner Will Thomas, who now works with Sotheby’s International Realty, served as host. The event featured performers including Bayla Whitten, Katie McManus, Aaron Talley and the Manassas Chorale Ensemble singing pop hits by Petula Clark, The Mamas and the Pappas, Olivia Newton-John, Barbara Streisand and more. The performances were led by music director and accompanist Jake Null, a Helen Hayes Award

Gifts from the heart

By Robin Earl

from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 17, at Fauquier High School. Also this weekend, 53 merchants will be featured at the Highland for the Holidays craft fair at Highland School, 597 Broadview Ave., Warrenton. The event is open to the public Nov. 17 and 18 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. with free admission. For $5 enjoy early-bird access Saturday, from 9-11 a.m. Proceeds benefit local charities.

Contributing Writer

Now that Halloween is in the rearview mirror, it’s officially OK to start thinking about the Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa holidays. And don’t forget Festivus! Gift-giving is inevitably part of the season. The joy of flawlessly matching a gift with a loved one makes the holiday more than a mere gift exchange; it is an art. Money doesn’t matter. Really. Whether it’s from the Salvation Army or Tiffany’s, if a gift is right for that unique recipient, then it’s like a star on top of a Christmas tree – perfect. Sometimes the latest trendy gift is the perfect choice, but more often it’s the one-of-a-kind, homemade present that hits home. Kudos to the handy folks who can knit a tea cozy with Aunt Mabel’s favorite cocker spaniel emblazoned on it. But if you are not so inclined, our county is blessed with handy folks aplenty who are willing and able to help you out. Some of these folks will be displaying their creations at fairs and shows throughout November and December. Cathy Sylcox and Barbara Jacobs, former science teachers at Cedar Lee Middle School, opened Sew Pretty Presents. After teaching nearly every child in the southern end of the county for years, Sylcox said, “We needed something to do after we retired.” They displayed their creations at a craft fair at Flatbeds and Tailfins in Remington on Nov. 10. Among the offerings were homemade dolls, doll beds and instant playhouses – with windows – that can be draped over a card table. Carina and Steve Wheat, owners of Rustic Mod, sell their unique home decor at local craft fairs. Carina said, “On the gift-giving spectrum, there are gift cards at one end and thoughtful, handmade gifts at the other. And handmade gifts are even more special when they’re personalized.” She suggests, “If you’re looking for a unique gift or shopping for someone who is impossible to buy for, find a good craft show. My advice is to start shopping early, especially if you’re hoping to order a custom or personalized product. You will need to allow the vendor time to create your one-of-a-kind gift and then ship it to you. In our case, for

Sometimes the perfect gift doesn’t come wrapped with a bow. There are times when an “experience” is the best choice. It can be challenging to fit the Kennedy Center under the tree, but wouldn’t a play or a concert make a welcome change? Closer to home, concerts and other cultural events abound. Fauquier Community Theatre (fctstage.org) will present “She Loves Me” from Nov. 30 to Dec. 16. “A Christmas Carol, A Musical” will be presented by the Allegro Community Players Nov. 16, 17 and 18 in Fauquier High School’s auditorium. Allegro Community School of the Arts will also present New Year’s Eve in Old Town Warrenton. Live music, theater, dance and children’s activities will bring in the new year Dec. 31.

Gifts from the heart

A gift for your favorite environmentalist Now through Dec. 8, the Rainforest Trust in Warrenton will hold the largest-ever public auction of species naming rights. Holiday shoppers will be able to buy the gift of naming one of 12 new species recently discovered in nature reserves in South America. These new-to-science species include a blue-eyed yellow frog, speckled red and green frogs, orchids, a trap jaw ant, a forest mouse, a worm-like caecilian, and a bigeyed red salamander. Bids are accepted by phone and online. All proceeds directly protect the habitat of the specific plant or critter, helping save them from extinction. Visit https://auctions.freemansauction.com/auction-catalog/1618B to learn more or to pre-register for the auction.

GIFTS, from Page 27

Warrenton (earthglazefire.com) is welcoming and inspires creativity. Visitors paint their choice of pottery, then fire it in the shop’s kiln, for a fun and relaxing project. Cheesecake Farms in Sumerduck (cheesecakefarms.com), an agri-educational farm, offers an opportunity for friends to fine tune their cooking skills and enjoy a delicious seasonal lunch together. The gourmet cooking class is for groups of 10, by advance registration. The experience is part demo, part hands on, and appropriate for the seasoned chef or the novice. Consider your loved one and choose carefully: the gift of an introductory class – acting, tennis, karate, horseback riding, yoga, photography – could be the catalyst for a new passion.

Helping

It’s easy to forget that the holidays are not universally joyous for everyone. For overburdened working parents or caregivers, the added obligations that come with the gift-giving season are anything but welcome. You can lighten the load for a harried friend or relative by arranging for a house-cleaning service or ordering some groceries to be delivered. Tana’s Kitchen in Warrenton (www.tanaskitchen.com/index.aspx) is another great option. The meal service provides all the ingredients – including sauces and marinades – for home-cooked meals. Meals arrive frozen; some cooking and assembly is required. Simple and delicious entrees can be purchased in four-, eight- or 12-meal bundles, with or without sides. Free delivery may be arranged within ten miles of Warrenton.

Making a difference

There are dozens of nonprofit organizations that could use a little holiday cheer. Rather than buying another sweater, consider sharing some

Rainforest Trust launches species naming auction Just in time for the holiday gift giving season, the Warrenton-based Rainforest Trust is hosting the largest-ever public auction of species naming rights. In the auction, holiday shoppers will bid on the chance to name one of 12 new species recently discovered in nature reserves the Trust and its partners established in South America. These new-to-science species include a blue-eyed yellow frog, speckled red and green frogs, orchids, a trap jaw ant, a forest mouse, a worm-like caecilian, and a big-eyed red salamander. The auction began Nov. 8 and takes place primarily online and by phone. The live auction takes place in Washington, D.C. during a private event on Dec. 8 at 8 p.m., and bids will also be accepted then by phone and online for pre-registered bidders. All proceeds directly protect the habitat of the

specific plant or critter, helping save them from extinction. The Freeman’s Auction House will be conducting the auction with support from Invaluable, an auction aggregator. Both are donating their services. Interested shoppers should visit www. auctions.freemansauction.com/auction-cata-

log/1618B to learn more and to pre-register for the auction. The minimum bid is $10,000. The Rainforest Trust describes naming a species as “a one-of-a-kind opportunity for people, companies, and nonprofits” who are “interested in conservation and abating climate change,” “in search of a truly unique gift with direct impact” and “wanting to leave a legacy.” Celebrating 30 years of conservation success, Rainforest Trust is a nonprofit that purchases and protects the most threatened tropical forests, saving endangered wildlife through partnerships and community engagement. With the help of funders and partners, the Rainforest Trust has helped protect 28 million acres of rainforest since 1988. Auctioning the naming rights to the 12 newly discovered species will support the Trust’s work while protecting these fragile species and the nature reserves in which they live, the Trust said.

Middleburg Garden Club holds Annual Greens Show The Middleburg Garden Club’s Annual Greens Show is scheduled to take place on Thursday and Friday, Nov. 29 and 30, at Emmanuel Episcopal Church parish hall at 105 East Washington St. in Middleburg. The popular event is part of the Christmas in Middleburg celebration, which draws visitors from across the state for the striking presentations. The show is a tradition that spans decades of the club’s community involvement and offers residents and visitors alike a glimpse into the beauty and magic of floral design and gardening. A gift fair is

part of the event along with the sale of holiday greens and judging the many arrangements. The Middleburg Garden Club has won both Virginia and national awards for the best holiday flower show. They are also a member of National Garden Clubs, Inc. and Virginia Federation of Garden Clubs, Inc. The theme of the show this year, “Santa Claus is coming to town,” will showcase a variety of holiday floral interpretations and artistic crafts. The chairs this year are Suzanne Lamb and Barbara Sharp.

There will also be individual design and horticulture classes open to entries from the public. Part of the competition includes children’s arrangements. Last year’s first-place blue ribbon went to fifth-grader Alston Weaver Myatt with her first-ever entry. Seasonal decorative crafts and gourmet items made by our members along with greens and wreaths and the bazaar items will be for sale. “It’s just amazing every year to see so much talent showcased in our Christmas show,” said Darcy Justen,

a vice president of the club, “and we love offering bows, wreaths and lots of handmade items to help you decorate your home. We sell out of our cut green branches every year, they are beautiful. New this year we will have our “Calendar Girls” calendar for $10. Admission to the show is free, proceeds from the sale help support the Middleburg Garden Club’s charitable beautification and community projects. Hours on Thursday, Nov. 29, are 2-5 p.m. and on Friday, Nov. 30, are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Lights for Life celebration set for Dec. 5 The Lights For Life Celebration has grown over the years to a very large celebration. The Fauquier Hospital Auxiliary invites the community to join in the celebration at a new location this year, Fauquier Springs Country Club, 9236 Tournament Drive, Warrenton, on Wednesday, Dec. 5, at 7:30 p.m. for a stellar celebration The 2018 “Top of the Tree” Honoree is Wilbur L. “Will” Heflin, who owned and operated the independent Remington Drug Company for 43 years. Originally established in 1913, it is recognized as the oldest drug company in Fauquier County and the Virginia Piedmont region

north of the Rapidan River. The theme of this year’s Lights for Life Celebration is “Always in Our Hearts.” The event’s goal is to raise $30,000 dollars that will be used to support the Fauquier Hospital Auxiliary’s threefold mission: volunteer services at Fauquier Health, to serve the health related needs of the community and to raise funds in pursuit of these activities. In order to meet this goal, the group is asking forsponsorships from local businesses and individuals. You may donate online fauquierhospitalauxiliary.org/lights-for-life/ or contact Darlene B.

November OVFRD breakfast canceled Rain! Rain, go away! You are making things very difficult for some of us including the Orlean Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department. Unfortunately, the October breakfast was the last one to be held in the old station because of a problem with the ceiling caused by dampness and hard rain. This means that the November breakfast is canceled! We will miss our loyal breakfast fans and we plan to resume the events at some time next year. We thank everyone for their support and encouragement. Watch for our news of progress on the new station. Birthday wishes to our neighbor and protector, Bobby Tarr. We love his laugh and appreciate his help. The 30th St. Nicholas Day sale will be held at the Leeds Episcopal Church parish hall on Saturday, Dec. 1, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. This is your opportunity to purchase lovely gift

ANNE DAVIS MARKHAM HUME ORLEAN 540-364-1828 hlfmhouse@aol.com and baked items for holiday giving from very talented vendors. Our longtime Leeds Parish crafts leader, Mary Lou McCullough, organized and orchestrated this event for many years and we know that she would be pleased to see it continue. Here is our personal rant and concern. Crest Hill Road from Marshall westward is very dangerous with curves and narrow stretches. The speed limit is purposely set at 45 mph for most of this road. However, it is disheartening to have folks tailgating and passing over the solid

lines at excessive speeds. One driver even had the nerve to make an ugly gesture while flying past me while I was driving the speed limit. There have been some bad accidents on Crest Hill Road; we ask that you slow down and keep us all safe. We really want to arrive home in one piece in our own vehicle, without an ambulance ride! We attended services for our neighbor, Jim Strother, last Sunday. Jim managed the co-op in Warrenton for many years where he shared his farm knowledge with many loyal customers. Some great memories of farm tractor restorations, family pets (aka that d– cat), and family events were shared with us. Jim and his father-in-law were both active with the establishment of the Orlean Volunteer Fire Department. We think that they would be pleased to see its growth and service to the Orlean community. Please keep Sally and the rest of his family in your thoughts during these

coming difficult days. The Orlean Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department welcomes Dillon Hodgson as a Class A junior member. Dillon will be taking the fire science classes as part of his training at Fauquier High School. This will soon be a family affair because Dillon’s parents have also applied for membership. The Orlean Community Trail System will have the annual Tramp Roast and outside party on Saturday, Dec. 1, starting at 2 p.m. The event, which features a very large stew prepared over an open fire, is held in the field opposite the Orlean Cemetery on John Barton Payne Road. Attendees are asked to bring an appetizer, salad or dessert to contribute to the meal. Donations for the local food bank are requested. Good items to donate are canned veggies and canned meats, cereals, peanut butter, cocoa mix, coffee and tea bags. No perishables, please.

Calverton Baptist Church to hold free clothing giveaway Saturday

Follow this advice to stay healthy for winter Staying healthy during this winter time by following this recent advice from Prevention Magazine. Some tips to stay physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy are: 1. Raise your vitamins D levels naturally by losing body weight, lowering your cholesterol, exercising, and eating fatty fish like wild salmon; 2. Keep using sunscreen from the sun upon your skin; 3. Get a flu shot to avoid complications of the flu; 4. Take a class for stimulating your mind, keep your creative juices active, and protecting your mental health; and 5. Eat more plant food for Omega-3 fatty acid, to reduce anti-inflammatory effects, protect the skin, and have a positive effect on your mental health. Don’t miss the Remington 5K Turkey Trot at M.M. Pierce Elementary School on Saturday, Nov. 17, from 10 a.m.-noon. Registration is $30 before

be aware of signs and what to do if you suspect human trafficking. We all like to think that things like this would not happen in our neighbor-

hood but unfortunately we live in a time where we cannot turn a blind eye to such acts. This is why community forums like this are beneficial. Saturday, Nov. 17, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Calverton Baptist Church will be hosting a free clothing giveaway. This outreach ministry is open to anyone. All are welcome to the clothing being offered. Calverton Baptist is on Va. 28 in Calverton. The Catlett Calverton Casanova Ruritan Club will be collecting non-perishable canned food, personal hygiene items, hats, mittens, gloves

and children’s books to distribute in its Holiday Food Boxes that are delivered to approximately 60 families in our area during the Christmas season. If you would like to contribute to this community service project, please reach out to me either by phone call, text or email and I will gladly make arrangements to collect your items. With the holidays fast approaching, be sure to contact me with upcoming events or special activities that your church or community organization may be having. I welcome the opportunity to put your events in my column.

Owners Association and the local American Legion Post 247 will partner to provide holiday dinners to veterans and seniors locally on Dec.

Deer Populations

White-tailed deer populations in North America have increased from about 500,000 in the early 1900s to 30 million today. Without native predators like the gray wolf and cougar, hunting is the primary factor to limit deer populations. Suburban housing developments, built in formerly forested and fielded areas, provide ideal winter feeding grounds for deer. One deer eats about six pounds of vegetation daily, so it does not take many to decimate a landscape. For people managing landscapes in areas with many deer, there are several possible approaches to reducing damage: Fencing- Where it is practical, fencing is the most effective method of reducing deer damage. Fences need to be at least 8 feet tall, but deer are also amazingly adept at going under fences rather than jumping over them. Deer Resistant Plants- Lists of deer resistant plants are widely available. For example, boxwoods and pears are often used in landscapes because deer will rarely eat them. RepellentsResearch at the Bartlett Tree Research Laboratories has determined that there are several highly effective repellents on the market today. We have found that one or two applications of our winter repellent can protect a plant for the winter. If you have any questions from this article or would like to schedule a property inspection, please contact me at cherrell@bartlett.com, 703-397-8410 or 1-877-BARTLET.

Dishing out bargains at The Book Cellar The holiday season – and feasting – is upon us. To fill our tables, U.S. farmers raised 244 million turkeys – the centerpiece of many holiday meals – in 2016, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and more than 1.6 billion pounds of pumpkins (that’s a lot of pies!). It’s no wonder that the average American gains a few pounds over the holidays. Despite popular belief, however, food consumption at Christmas ranks third – behind Thanksgiving and, wait for it, Super Bowl Sunday. Whether you are looking to change up your holiday menu, put a new twist on a perennial holiday dish or simply want to add to your recipe repertoire, you are sure to find a cookbook to help you at the upcoming Cookbook Sale at The Book Cellar, the used book store operated by Friends of the Fauquier Library. When: Friday and Saturday, Nov. 16 and 17, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Where: John Barton Payne Building, 2 Courthouse Square, Warrenton Choose from hundreds of cookbooks – including a wide selection from the personal collection of Claire Lamborne, chef and owner of Claire’s at the Depot – offered at great prices. Cookbooks including international favorites and those featuring local cuisine will be offered at great prices. All sale proceeds benefit Fauquier County Public Library. Here’s a sampling of what you will find: • Is this Thanksgiving your first foray into holiday cooking? Learn all you need to know about cooking basics, including how to stock your pantry with “The New Basics Cookbook.”

Calendar: November 14-20

• Not sure what wine to serve with dinner? “The Wine Bible” provides the fundamentals of choosing the right one. • Looking for some international flavor? Give “The Japanese Kitchen” a try. • Want to take the stress out of entertaining? Get tips from Betty Crocker’s “Easy Entertaining.” • Trying to keep holiday pounds at bay? Try the easy to follow recipes in “Healthy One-Dish Meals in Minutes.” If all this talk of cookbooks has wetted your appetite for more, check out the blog “Tasty Titles: New Cookbooks for the Holidays” by Jennifer Schultz Angoli, collection services development librarian, for highlights of the recent additions to the library’s cookbook collection. You can find it, and more news about the library services and programs, at fauquierlibrary.org. Happy feasting! – Lisa Pavlock, Public Information Coordinator, Fauquier County Public Library

Father James R. Gould, Pastor

Aside from the many financial advantages that funeral preplanning provides, there are other benefits on which you cannot put a price. Perhaps the most important of these is the ability to make decisions that lessen the likelihood of future family conflict. As anyone who has ever planned a family event knows, disagreements arise out of decisions great and small. When the emotion surrounding death is allowed to cloud the issue, the risk of strong disagreement can rapidly increase. With this in mind, perhaps the best way to keep emotions in check and ensure a peaceful and respectful observance of a life well-lived is to make funeral arrangements in advance. That is, the way you want them to be. Pre-need funeral plans can be made at any time and offer many advantages. Planning ahead also enables you to make financial arrangements to cover your funeral costs. Whether you decide to just provide personal information, make all or most of your selections, or completely plan and pay for your funeral in advance, we will explain all of your choices, and will respect your decisions. If you are interested in learning more, please call MOSER FUNERAL HOME at (540) 347-3431. Please tour our facility, conveniently located at 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton. We’ll also tell you about our BRIGHT VIEW CEMETERY, just outside of Warrenton.

Legal Notices DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations for Unincorporated Areas of Fauquier County, Virginia, Case No. 18-03-1561P. The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) solicits technical information or comments on proposed flood hazard determinations for the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), and where applicable, the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your community. These flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway. The FIRM and, if applicable, the FIS report have been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title 44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations. These determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures that your community is required to adopt or show evidence of having in effect to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. For more information on the proposed flood hazard determinations and information on the statutory 90-day period provided for appeals, please visit FEMA’s website at www.fema.gov/ plan/prevent/fhm/bfe, or call the FEMA Map Information eXchange (FMIX) toll free at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627).
