Prince William County’s 13th high school will open in August 2021 on 83 acres next to Jiffy Lube Live in Gainesville. School division officials began the process of deciding which neighborhoods will be zoned for the

new school with a recent “scoping” meeting at Battlefield High School.

The new school, which has not yet been named, will draw its students primarily from attendance areas now zoned for Battlefield High School in Gainesville; Patriot High School in Nokesville; and Stonewall Jackson See HIGH SCHOOL, page 8

Stewart wants data centers to pay more

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

In a renewed effort to extract more local tax revenue from Prince William’s growing data center industry, Corey Stewart proposed a plan Monday to hike the tax rate for computer equipment 60 percent next year to provide more money for schools and mental health services while shaving about $37 off homeowners’ annual tax bills.

Stewart, chairman of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors, held a press conference on “tax day,” April 15, to announce his plan to raise the tax rate on the “programmable computer and peripherals,” from $1.25 to $2 per $100 in valuation.

The tax is paid by all businesses with computer equipment but is informally called “the data center tax” because data centers pay the bulk of the revenue generated by the tax, Stewart said.

Stewart, R-At Large, said his proposal would raise a total of $9.6 milSee DATA CENTERS, page 5

An woman died early Monday morning after a tree crashed through her residence during a storm that swept through Stafford County, the sheriff’s office said.

About 1:43 a.m. on Monday, April 15, deputies responded to a house on Doyle Place, according to a news release from the Stafford County sheriff’s office.

The sheriff’s office reported that during the storm, a tree fell on the home, injuring an 82-year-old man and killing a 78-year-old woman who were asleep inside.

Stafford County Fire and Rescue responded to the scene and found the woman “pinned underneath the tree.”

She was pronounced dead on scene at 2:02 a.m., according to the news release.

The man was taken to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Man shot, injured in Woodbridge

A 22-year-old man was shot and injured in Woodbridge Sunday night, Prince William County police said.

At 9:55 p.m. on Sunday, April 14, officers were called to the 4400 block of Evergreen Drive to investigate a shooting, Prince William County police said in a news release.

Police said a 22-year-old man was in that area “when two unknown men shot him during an encounter.”

The man, who was with a female acquaintance during the shooting, “was able to make it back to his residence where police were contacted,” police said in the news release.

The victim was flown to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Police said the incident does not appear to be random.

The police investigation continues.

Police respond to hostage situation in Dumfries

Police are investigating after two men allegedly went to a Dumfries home to give a woman a tattoo but instead locked her out of her home with her two young children inside.

Officers were called to a residence on the 3600 block of Masthead Trail in Dumfries at 7:35 p.m. on Friday, April 12, to investigate “a fight in-

volving weapons,” Prince William County police said in news release.

Police said the homeowner, a 33-year-old woman, made arrangements with two men to give her a tattoo at her residence. When the men arrived, they were accompanied by another woman, police said.

While they were in front of the house, the three suspects got into an argument with other neighborhood residence, “which led to a firearm being brandished and the suspects physically assaulting the neighbors,” police said in the news release.

After the assault, the suspects ran to the initial homeowner’s home and “proceeded to lock her out of her home,” police said.

The homeowner reported to police that her two children, a 10-yearold girl and a 4-year-old boy, were in the home at the time.

Crisis negotiators and members of the police department’s SWT team responded to the home and “were able to get the suspects to release the children,” police said in the news release. The children were not injured.

The three suspects “eventually exited the residence” and were arrested, police said.

Johnathan Da’von Coleman, 27, of Bayside Avenue in Woodbridge, was charged with two counts of abduction, one count of using a firearm in commission of a felon, one count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and one count of assault by mob.

Juoquim Lequan Young, 30, of Silversmith Court in Woodbridge, was charged with two counts of abduction, one count of using a firearm in commission of a felony, one count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, one count of assault and battery and one count of assault by mob.

Police: Man solicited donations, falsely claimed to represent wheelchair basketball team

A Manassas man is facing felony charges after, police said, he falsely claimed to represent a wheelchair basketball league and solicited dona-

ordinated through the Virginia Department of Transportation and the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation.

The county has agreed to buy the 17.68acre tract on Opitz Boulevard from town center owner JBG/Woodbridge, LLC for $5.5 million plus closing costs, money that will come from local recordation tax revenue and the county’s portion of Northern Virginia Transportation Authority funding. The lot is scheduled to be completed by early 2023.

The site was chosen because of its proximity to Interstate 95 and a new HOV ramp that is planned to ease access to Opitz Boulevard and Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center.

tions from city residents.

Police said Brian Delay misrepresented himself as a representative of a wheelchair basketball league and went door to door soliciting donations at residences in the City of Manassas.

Police released a information bulletin in February seeking to identify possible additional victims in the scam, Manassas police said in a news release Thursday.

Detectives then were able to “to identify numerous victims from incidents which occurred over the past several years,” the police news release said.

On Wednesday, April 10, Delay, 42, of Manassas was arrested and charged with eight counts of obtaining goods by false pretenses, police said.

19-year-old arrested after string of gas station burglaries in Woodbridge

Three Woodbridge gas stations and a tobacco shop have been hit by burglars seven times since January.

A 19-year-old Woodbridge man was being held without bond at the Prince William County jail last week in connection with a string of burglaries between Jan. 28 and Thursday, April 4, according to Prince William County police.

In most incidents, glass doors were shattered in the wee hours of the morning, and Juul smoking devices, alcohol and other merchandise went missing, said Officer Renee

Road safety a top concern for Mizener Disabled since 2017, engineer vies for supervisor’s seat

By Jill Palermo

Times Staff Writer

To this day, Ray Mizener says he still doesn’t know exactly what happened. It was about 11 a.m. on a Saturday morning. Mizener was driving a new-to-him car along Gum Spring Road, near the rock quarry, to get an emissions inspection. Somehow he lost control, hit a guardrail and woke up several days later in the hospital.

Mizener’s injuries were severe.

He broke 14 bones, punctured both lungs and suffered a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed from the chest down.

The accident, which occurred on Jan. 28, 2017, changed Mizener’s life in many ways. Among other things, it interrupted his 20-year career in civil engineering and led him to think more deeply about what can be done to make area roads safer.

In fact, motorist safety, ongoing traffic congestion and a lack of options for commuters are among the top reasons Mizener, 43, decided to run for the Gainesville District seat on the Prince William County Board of Supervisors. He is challenging incumbent Gainesville District Supervisor Pete Candland (R) in the upcoming May 4 firehouse primary.

“I think we really have a transportation crisis here in Northern Virginia, and specifically, Prince William County and Gainesville have been impacted by that,” Mizener said.

Mizener listed inadequate road improvements made in conjunction with new developments and as a top safety concern. As an engineer, Mizener worked on large-scale construction projects, including the fourth runway at Dulles International Airport, before his accident waylaid his career.

He said he’d like to see “smart road” technologies included in new road projects, including traffic signals that “talk” to each other, pavement improvements that enhance safety and guard rails that keep cars from running off the road but don’t pierce vehicles’ exterior.

That’s what happened in Mizener’s accident. After his car hit the guardrail, the metal cut through the passenger’s side door, causing the worst of his injuries.

Mizener said he considered suing the guardrail manufacturer but ultimately decided against it. It was a one-car accident, and no charges were filed as a result of the crash, he said.

“Did the guardrail jump out in front of my car? No. But it didn’t work the way it was intended to,” Mizener said. “I don’t want to blame anybody else. You have to own your own problems. But I don’t want it to happen to anyone else.”

Mizener said he considers himself a conservative Republican and is not running to challenge Candland

on any particular issues. In fact, he said he believes he has a lot in common with Candland, saying both are “family men and men of faith who care a lot about their community.”

“I appreciate anybody who’s fighting to keep taxes down, and I think we’re probably quite similar in that,” Mizener said.

Still, Mizener said he believes he has a “greater breadth and depth of experience” in development and transportation issues to bring to the board. “Maybe I can bring more efficiency to residents,” he said.

Candland, a Maryland native, has held the Gainesville seat on the board of supervisors since 2012 after beating Democrat Ann Wheeler, who is running for chairman of the board this year. Candland ran unopposed in 2015. He is a father of four and a cellphone company executive turned

small-business owner. Candland and his wife, Robyn, own and operate two Cookies and Cream ice cream shops, one in Haymarket and one in Bristow. Candland also runs his own consulting business and serves as the executive director of the American Kratom Association.

Mizener is a graduate of Stonewall Jackson High school and Old Dominion University. His parents moved to Gainesville from Manassas in 1977. Mizener and his wife, Brooke, are raising their two children in Gainesville, just down the street from the home Ray grew up in. They have a 3-year-old daughter and a 5-year-old son, Mizener said.

During his long recovery, Mizener said he found inspiration in other leaders who have found ways to serve their communities despite suffering similar injuries -- people like

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) who has been paralyzed from the waist down since 1984. Abbott was injured when part of an oak tree fell on him while he was out jogging after a storm. He was 26 when the accident occurred.

Mizener spent five months in the hospital and in a rehabilitation facility following his accident and said the experience of recovering alongside people with even more severe injuries gave him a new perspective.

Mizener said he feels lucky to have retained his mental capabilities and to be able to interact with his two young children.

“I said to myself, ‘Maybe life isn’t over.’ I just … want to make my community better and be an example for other people who have had catastrophic injuries,” he said. “…

When you almost run out of tomorrows, you’re really motivated to do things today.”

On ‘tax day,’ board chairman floats computer tax increase to raise money for schools, mental health, homeowner tax relief DATA CENTERS, from page 1 lion. Of that money, $2 million would go to local schools while about $1.5 million would go to the county. Stewart said he would propose spending $800,000 of the county’s share to reduce waiting lists for mental health treatment provided through the county’s community services board.

“There’s no question that it’s needed,” Stewart said of expanding access to mental health treatment.

“It’s not just important to those who need the services, but it’s important to their families and, frankly, it’s important for public safety.”

The remaining $6.1 million would be used to keep school division and county budgets “whole” while shaving 1 cent off the real-estate tax rate, a move that would save about $37 on a home valued at $371,000 – the average assessed value of a home in Prince William County.

Average real-estate tax bills for Prince William County homeowners were set to rise by about $149 in 2020 under the budget proposed

by County Executive Chris Martino in February. Under Stewart’s plan, taxpayers would see an increase of about $112 in 2020.

Stewart was joined at the 11 a.m. press conference by Supervisors Maureen Caddigan, R-Potomac, and Peter Candland, R-Gainesville. Caddigan called Stewart’s proposal “a win-win” and said she’s lending her support only because it would mean more money for schools.

Candland said it’s time that the county’s data centers – run by what he called “some of the biggest companies in the world” -- pay “a more equitable tax rate.”

“The data center tax is a tax break for data centers,” Candland said, noting the county reduced its tax rate for computer equipment to $1.25 per $100 in assessed value in 1999 to lure high-tech companies. The full personal property tax rate – paid by residents on things such as cars and trucks – is $3.70 per $100 in assessed value.

“It’s time that the advocates for the taxpayers in prince William county stand up and say no longer are we going to have the taxpayers shoulder all the burden.”

Stewart further proposed what he called additional “incremental” increases in the data center tax rate of about 10-cents a year to bring the property tax rate on computers and peripherals to $2.50 per $100 in assessed value.

Even with the increase, Candland noted Prince William’s rate would still be “the lowest tax rate in Northern Virginia.” Loudoun County’s tax rate for computer property is $4.20 per $100 in assessed value, while Fairfax County’s tax is $4.57, according to their county websites.

Supervisors split

Stewart has called a special meeting of the board of supervisors at 6 p.m. this Wednesday, April 17, to discuss the plan and vote on advertising his proposed hike in the computer property tax rate ahead of the board’s April 30 public hearing on the budget.

Stewart needs five votes for his plan to be approved. Supervisor Frank Principi, D-Woodbridge, did not join Stewart at the press conference but said in a telephone interview that he will support the plan as long as it delivers more money to schools and access to mental health services.

In separate interviews, Supervisors Ruth Anderson, R-Occoquan; Jeanine Lawson, R-Brentsville; and Marty Nohe, R-Coles, all said they are opposed to the idea of raising taxes on data centers so late in the budget process.

Nohe, who is running for the Republican nomination for board chairman, said he is concerned about the long-term impact to the county’s economic development efforts if the board of supervisors is seen as inhospitable to data centers.

“I don’t want Prince William County to be the farmer who killed the goose that laid the golden egg,” Nohe said. “… The idea that maybe we can increase these taxes and the investment will still come is a really expensive experiment.”

The apparent 4-to-3 split ahead of the Wednesday meeting leaves the board’s newest member, Supervisor Victor Angry, D-Neabsco, as the potential swing vote. Angry declined to comment on Stewart’s proposal Monday, according to an email from his chief of staff, Kelly Easterly.

Chamber opposed to the tax hike

Not surprisingly, the Prince William Chamber of Commerce was quick to oppose the idea of raising the tax rate on computer equipment so late in the county’s annual budget process.

“We’re definitely 100 percent against it. This is a tax on over 4,000 businesses [in the county] that pay that tax,” said Ross Snare, the chamber’s spokesman. “From a business perspective, [the move suggests] there’s an unstable, unfriendly business climate in Prince William County.”

Stewart, however, called the chamber’s argument about the tax rate affecting other businesses “a canard” and said that for most companies the tax increase would be minimal and likely offset by his proposed reduction in the real-estate tax rate.

“For probably 95 percent of businesses in Prince William County this will be tax relief,” Stewart said.

CBD and THC-A oil dispensaries set to open across Virginia, including Manassas

By Ben Burstein

Capital News Service

RICHMOND -- Virginians with a doctor’s recommendation soon will have access to CBD and THC-A oil dispensaries throughout the state.

The Virginia Board of Pharmacy has approved five companies to open the dispensaries -- one in each of the commonwealth’s five health service areas.

The dispensaries will provide CBD and THC-A oils to approved patients only. The Board of Pharmacy met in private to review 51 applicants before selecting five: PharmaCann, Dalitso, Dharma Pharmaceuticals, Green Leaf Medical and Columbia Care. Background checks will be conducted before each company receives a license.

There are no scheduled opening dates for the dispensaries, but it's possible they could be operational by winter.

"Under the terms of their conditional approval, they all have to be open by the end of 2019," said Diane Powers, director of communications for the Virginia Department of Health Professions. The companies do not have to operate on any other specific timeline.

The dispensaries will offer welcome relief to patients suffering from a range of health problems, according to medical cannabis advocates. Legislation passed in 2018 allows medical practitioners to issue a certification for CBD or TCH-A oils for patients who would benefit from such substances. Dispensaries are only able to provide up to a 90-day supply at a time.

Stephanie Anderson of Richmond is considering CBD oil as an alternative treatment for her son's ADHD. She wanted her son to have safe and legal access to CBD products.

"I've been hesitant to try CBD from online sources, so the idea of having in-state pharmaceutical processors puts my mind at ease," she said.

Manassas-based dispensary

Dalitso is a Virginia-based compa-

ny that will specialize in the production of CBD and THC-A oils. It is in the process of obtaining approval to open a processing facility in Prince William County. Dalitso will open a dispensary in Manassas, which will serve Health Service Area II, including Fairfax and Alexandria.

PharmaCann, founded in 2014, currently operates medical marijuana facilities in five other states and is licensed to operate in three more.

Its dispensary will be in Staunton in Health Service Area I, which stretches from Fredericksburg to the Shenandoah Valley.

Dharma Pharmaceuticals will open its dispensary in Bristol, covering Health Service Area III, which encompasses southwest Virginia.

Dharma is an international producer of medications for hepatitis, cancer and other diseases.

Green Leaf Medical will set up its dispensary in the Swansboro neighborhood in city of Richmond, serving the surrounding area south to Emporia in Health Service Area IV. Green Leaf is a producer of CBD and THC-A oils, along with other medical marijuana products available in almost 30 locations in Maryland.

Columbia Care will be based in Portsmouth and provide CBD and THC-A oils in Health Service Area V to residents in the Tidewater area to the Eastern Shore. Columbia Care is an international cannabis-focused health-care company with locations in 13 states, Puerto Rico and the Mediterranean nation of Malta.

Each dispensary submitted an initial $10,000 application fee. The permit fee is $60,000 and a dispensary must pay an additional $10,000 per year to renew its license.

‘Scoping’ meeting begins boundary process for 13th H.S. HIGH SCHOOL, from page 1 High School, in the Manassas area of Prince William County.

All three schools are overcrowded. Battlefield High School is the most overcapacity with about 950 more students than the 2,053-student school is built to accommodate. The school is using 18 portable classroom trailers this school year.

Patriot High is the next most overcrowded, with about 625 students overcapacity, said Matthew Cartlidge, supervisor of planning for Prince William County Schools. Patriot is using 20 portable classroom trailers this year.

Stonewall Jackson High School is about 70 students overcapacity and is using seven portable classroom trailers.

A diagram of the layout of the new high school shows the back of the building facing the back of the Jiffy Lube Live bandshell. The school will have two entry points: from an extended University Boulevard/ Progress Court, which currently dead ends just past Wellington Road, and via an extension of Wentworth Green Drive.

There will be extensive privacy fencing between the school and the concert venue, Cartlidge said.

“We’re going to try to be good neighbors, but also take into account that they’re an outdoor concert venue and we’re a high school, Cartlidge said.

“We’re coordinating with them so their events are not going to conflict with our events,” added Dave Beavers, the school division’s supervisor for planning and financial services.

Jiffy Lube Live’s 2019 season begins May 11, but weeknight performances don’t begin until June 26.

The last day of school is June 11.

Changes impact current eighth-graders and below

This year’s seventh-grade students are the oldest students who will be required to move to the new high school, as they will enter 10th grade when the new school opens.

This year’s eighth-grade class will have the option of attending the new school for their junior and senior years if they live in the new school’s boundaries. But they will also have the option of staying in their original high school rather than transferring, Cartlidge said.

The new high school won’t have a senior graduating class until 2023.

It will be comprised of students who are in eighth grade this year and decide to attend the new high school for their junior and senior years.

The scoping meeting was called to hear input from the communities affected by the new boundaries, Cartlidge said. About 100 people attended and several came to the microphones to voice concerns about the new boundaries.

Student continuity

Several parents stressed the need to keep students together as they progress from elementary to middle to high school. Some said the current boundaries are hard on students because they split middle schools between two different high schools, which is difficult on students.

Parents said they hoped the new school would allow more students to transition from middle to high school

with their classmates at a time when students can be especially sensitive to change.

Parents from various western Prince William neighborhoods, many of whom said their children are still in elementary school, expressed their desire to either be rezoned for the new school or stay in their existing attendance districts.

Several parents from the Piedmont subdivisions said they hoped their children would remain zoned for Battlefield High School, while parents from Wentworth Green and Victory Lakes said they’d rather their children go to the new high school.

Wentworth Green, located just across the street from Gainesville Middle School, seemed an obvious choice for the new school, said one parent, since students would likely be able to walk to the school.

Cartlidge said school division officials would heavily consider distance to the school – and the ability to bus routes as efficient as possible – when drawing the new boundaries. By federal law, students must be zoned for the closest public schools, unless the closest school is already overcapacity.

“Right now, if you live less than a mile away and there’s a safe route to school, you’re a walker,” Cartlidge said.

Several Victory Lakes parents also expressed their hope that their students, who attend Marsteller Middle School, would not be separated from the majority of their classmates who go to Patriot High School. The Victory Lakes subdivision is currently zoned for Stonewall Jackson High School.

Parent Shourik Biswas, who lives

13th high school:

13150 University Blvd., Gainesville (behind Jiffy Lube Live) Opens August 2021 83.52 acres 2,553 students Relieves overcrowding at Patriot, Battlefield and Stonewall Jackson high schools in Victory Lakes, said there is “a palpable sense of unfairness” among residents there that their neighborhood may still end up zoned for Stonewall Jackson despite being closer to both Patriot and the 13th high school.

“Now we’re going to have two high schools that are closer in proximity to our community than Stonewall, but there’s still a chance will get shut out again,” Biswas said, eliciting applause from the audience.

Factors considered

In response, Cartlidge said the school division is not always able to zone students to the closest schools because of the way the county has developed over the years. If distance were the only factor considered, some high schools would be at 40 percent capacity and others at 180 percent, Cartlidge said.

Several factors are considered when drawing the lines, including enrollment, transportation efficiency, balancing demographics among school populations and student progression between elementary, middle and high schools. The school division also tries not to split individual neighborhoods whenever possible, Cartlidge said.

Regarding demographics, Cartlidge said there is no “hard benchmark” the school division is trying to achieve regarding measures of minority or low-income students assigned to each school.

Although some students will be rezoned from Stonewall Jackson High School, it’s too soon to say how many, Cartlidge said.

Both Cartlidge and Beavers further defended Stonewall Jackson High School, which offers the prestigious International Baccalaureate curriculum, as a strong option for Prince William students.

“Please don’t discredit those programs,” Beavers said, noting that his children are Stonewall Jackson graduates. “There’s a fantastic education for every child to get at Stonewall Jackson.”

Horse racing returns as gaming parlors open in Virginia

By Emma Gauthier Capital News Service

RICHMOND — Horses will soon race again at Colonial Downs, and Virginians will be able to bet on them.

Horse-racing fans will also be able to play slots-style machines in a casino-like setting at affiliated betting parlors, named "Rosie's Gaming Emporium," which are set to open in five locations across the commonwealth.

The Colonial Downs Group will resume horse racing at its track in New Kent County in August. The Colonial Downs Group is set to open its first Rosie’s at the New Kent County track on April 23. The company is also opening gaming parlors in Richmond, Hampton, Chesapeake and Vinton, a town in Roanoke County, by the end of 2019.

Rosie’s is expected to generate $25 million in state taxes annually and create 800 jobs statewide, according to Colonial Downs spokesman Mark Hubbard. The Richmond location will employ about 150 people and open in June.

Mayor Levar Stoney has endorsed the venture, which will be in South-Central Richmond. “We’ve had tremendous support from Mayor Stoney and city leaders,” Hubbard said. “The community in the 9th District is excited about us opening soon, and we’re very excited about bringing a new form of entertainment and fun to Richmond.”

The five Rosie’s locations will include a total of 3,000 historical horse racing gaming machines. The bets feed into a collective pool that players can win, with various purses. The races are historical – meaning they are actual races that took place in past years. Because the games pull from such a vast pool of past races, it would be difficult or impossible for players to know the outcome before placing their bets.

It’s that betting, however, that will help fund the payouts for actual horse racing at Colonial Downs when it opens later this summer.

“The revenues that we generate through the machines will help fund purses at the race track and a portion of the revenues will go to the horse racing industry,” Hubbard said.

The collective purse falls under a type of gambling known as pari-mutuel betting. This type of gaming operation was created in Kentucky to revitalize the horse industry and generate revenue year-round, Hubbard said.

Using the machines, players select three horses (the winners of histori-

cal horse races), place a bet and then watch an animated re-enactment of the horses competing. The company calls the machines a “competitive substitute for traditional casino-style games.”

Are casinos next?

The launch of Rosie’s Gaming Emporium coincides with a push in the General Assembly to allow casinos in the commonwealth.

On March 21, Gov. Ralph Northam (D) signed into law a bill that may eventually loosen the reins on casino gambling. SB 1126, sponsored by state Sen. L. Louise Lucas, D-18th, of Portsmouth, calls for a study of casino gaming in the state, which must be completed by Dec. 1.

Going forward, localities would be required to pass a referendum to allow casino gaming. The Virginia Lottery Board would regulate the casinos. The board cannot issue any gaming licenses before July 1, 2020.

The new law also gives the Virginia Racing Commission control of racing with pari-mutuel wagering.

The Colonial Downs Group will participate in the study, Hubbard said.

Concerns about gambling

Some organizations are worried about a negative impact on communities.

The Virginia Council on Problem Gambling believes that more people will develop gambling-related problems when given more opportunities to gamble.

“As our legislators seek to expand gambling in Virginia, they need to do so responsibly by first assessing the risks and rewards, which hopefully the gambling study the governor is calling for will in part provide, and also setting up safeguards to protect the public from harm,” said the council’s president, Carolyn Hawley.

The Family Foundation, a nonprofit Christian organization, has similar reservations and also believes that crime increases near casinos. The Colonial Downs Group believes its gaming centers will improve quality of life and possibly decrease crime.

The Rosie’s in Richmond will replace a vacant Kmart lot off Midlothian Turnpike near Chippenham Parkway. Police regularly patrol the area because of crime, Hubbard said.

“We’re going to add a lot of lighting, surveillance and people coming and going, which will deter criminals,” Hubbard said. “When you bring a fun, lively, very well-lit and secure entertainment facility, that disperses crime.”

OPINION WWW.PRINCEWILLIAMTIMES.COM

Prince William Times | April 17 , 2019

Special election a watershed moment in a waterfall year The April 9 special election for the Neabsco supervisor’s seat was a watershed moment for Prince William County. For the first time in the county board’s 150-year history, an African-American resident was elected to fill one of its eight seats. That distinction went to Victor Angry, 50, a retired Army National Guardsman who was also the first black soldier to be promoted to the post of command sergeant major.

The fact that it took so long to elect a supervisor of color in Virginia’s largest minority-majority county took some by surprise. Prince William County has been minority-majority since 2010, and black residents have long served on the school board and the Dumfries Town Council.

But there are reasons why it took so long.

For one thing, too many local residents don’t know about local elections or are even aware the county has a board of supervisors. That’s likely the regrettable result of Virginia’s stubborn insistence to hold local elections on so-called “off-off years” when no federal nor statewide races are on the ballot.

As such, the contests draw little attention and favor incumbents. That’s reflected in the low voter turnout, which hasn’t cracked 30 percent in recent years.

There’s also the fact that two of the county’s most diverse districts – Neabsco and Potomac – have been represented by two popular incumbents for decades. Few candidates had been willing or eager to challenge either Neabsco District Supervisor John Jenkins (D) nor Potomac District Supervisor Maureen Caddigan (R), as both are well-known and well-liked by their constituents.

The community mourned the death of Jenkins, whom some called “the people’s supervisor,” in a February funeral that drew hundreds. During his 36-year tenure, Jenkins helped develop the Prince William County we enjoy today, to include its 95 schools, extensive road network, and commuter parking lots, numerous parks and recreation trails and even the Potomac Mills mall, which remains an economic engine for the entire region.

An Earth Day note about recycling Thousands have read our recent coverage about changes in the global recycling markets and how they have affected local curbside recycling.

Because Prince William relies on private commercial haulers to pick up and process our trash, our options for recycling are limited to the materials they can profitably sell. Glass and no. 3-7 plastics are no longer on that list, which is why residents have been asked to throw them directly into the trash.

Local leaders who make such a dramatic impacts inspire others to follow in their footsteps, in part because there remain so many problems left to solve. Five candidates, including four Democrats and one Republican, stepped up in short order to run for Jenkins’ seat.

Because the special election came only seven months before a general election, Angry will face his first re-election challenge in just a few weeks.

In the June 11 Democratic primary, he’s up against Patrick Jones and Aracely Panameno, two candidates he beat in the Feb. 24 firehouse primary held ahead of the watershed April 9 contest.

Which brings us to the “waterfall moment” deluging the county in 2019.

Why minority representation matters First, I’d like to congratulate both Victor Angry and Devinder Singh for stepping up to run for local office. Some of the most important challenges facing our communities are addressed right here at the county level, and it speaks volumes of both candidates to put themselves out there to address those challenges.

Supervisor John D. Jenkins is a legend in Prince William County, and building on his legacy is no easy task. In the end, the voters of the Neabsco District favored Victor, and I can only begin to describe what this means.

As has been well-publicized at this point, Supervisor Angry will be the first African American to sit on the board of supervisors in our county board’s 150-year history. In a majority-minority county where African Americans and those of African descent make up over one-fifth of the population, this has been long overdue.

I am a descendant of enslaved Africans brought to Virginia in the late 1700s. As a member of the Prince William NAACP and other local organizations, I have advocated for numerous local

Residents can take steps to keep recyclable materials out of the landfill, but it will take more time and effort. The county will soon place receptacles at the landfill and Balls Ford Road composting facility for glass that will be trucked to Fairfax County for reprocessing.

Residents can also avoid buying products sold in non-recyclable packaging.

Beyond that, fixing the nation’s broken recycling system will require policy changes on the state and national levels. Earth Day is the perfect time to start that discussion with our elected officials.

Angry, Jones and Panameno are just three of the 25 candidates vying for the county board’s eight seats. It’s the largest and by far the most diverse group of hopefuls in recent memory. The field includes 13 Democrats, 10 Republicans and two independents and is comprised of 10 African-Americans, one Hispanic and nine women.

They range in age from 25 to 70. All six incumbents running for re-election will face opponents, which is also unusual.

The fact that so many local residents are willing to interrupt their lives to serve our community in such a demanding way is encouraging. That our elected officials are sure to finally reflect our community’s rich diversity is truly an achievement.

candidates of color over the last few years.

While we have had – and continue to have – allies on the board of supervisors, having actual representation matters. On top of being a veteran, volunteer firefighter and small business owner, Victor will bring a lifetime of experience which will provide a perspective our county government has been sorely lacking. If I have the honor of becoming the Democratic nominee and prevailing in November, it will be an honor serve alongside him next year.

TWO GREAT GIRLS SOCCER TEAMS PLAY HERE

Madison Birge and the Pioneers edged archrival Battlefield 2-1 to grab the Cedar Run District lead. Patriot has won four in a row in the series. But Battlefield owns three state titles.

Patriot edges archrival Battlefield 2-1 to grab Cedar Run lead

By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

Four Patriot girls formed a wall and leaped simultaneously as they tried to defend a 19-yard free kick by Battlefield’s Jenna Daunt last Friday.

As long-time rivals, the Pioneers knew Daunt likes to shoot over a wall, so the girls in the formation were surprised when Daunt’s shot spun up a wake of rain water as it slid under their feet and into the goal.

Familiarity backfired there, but the visiting Pioneers still beat Battlefield 2-1 in a battle of two of the area’s powerhouses. Battlefield (9-2) entered as No. 14 in the USA TODAY national rankings and No. 3 by the Washington Post with Patriot (82) at No. 9.

“We know how they play,” Patriot senior Erin Ackerman said of the Bobcats. “We’re both evenly matched, so when we can be on top of them, every time it feels good.”

Patriot improved to 6-8-1 against Battlefield over six seasons, an impressive mark considering the Bobcats have three state titles since 2014 and are 97-6-1 against everyone but Patriot.

While the Pioneers haven’t yet earned a state berth, they’ve shown an uncanny ability to upset Battlefield. Patriot grabbed the Cedar Run District lead at 4-0. Battlefield is 3-1.

Patriot took a 2-0 lead on Madison Birge’s goal with 7 minutes, 59 seconds remaining in the first half and Ackerman’s strike with 26:43

remaining in the second half.

After Daunt made it 2-1, the Patriot defense held on.

“You give it everything you have; play like it’s your last game,” said sophomore back Maggie Mockenhaupt. “It’s definitely the best victory. It feels really good.”

“I love that they’re in our conference so we get that test. That’ll help prepare both of our teams to go far,” said Patriot coach Kelly Beauchamp-Payne.

Despite their three state titles, the Bobcats have lost four in a row to Patriot, which won all three times last season, including in the district tournament final.

“I can’t pinpoint it exactly,” Battlefield coach Kevin Hilton said.

“They’re quality.”

Their rematch is coming right up April 24 in Nokesville, following spring break.

“Right now our first goal is to turnaround and win when we see them,” Hilton said. “If we can do that, we can work towards … winning a conference championship.”

The Pioneers appear to have as much potential as ever to claim their first state berth. They finished 18-1 last year by losing to Madison 1-0 in overtime of the Class 6 Region D semifinals. Seven starters were lost to graduation, making this a young team with five freshmen and four returning starters. A lockdown defender, Mockenhaupt is a first-year player.

Battlefield baseball is 10-0, Patriot is 9-0, Brentsville is 8-0

By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

Battlefield hit five doubles Monday to remain undefeated at 10-0 with an 11-3 victory over Louisa at Myrtle Beach (South Carolina) High during the Mingo Bay Classic Baseball Tournament.

Down 3-0 in the first inning, the Bobcats rallied with two runs in the third, three in the fourth and six in the sixth.

Carter Cunningham went 3-for-4 with two doubles and four RBIs and Jackson Baird had three RBIs, two runs, a double and walk on 2-for-3 hitting.

Other Battlefield production came from Zach Agnos (2-for-4, two RBIs), Craig Miles (1-for-2, two runs, two

walks) and Adam Kuzmicki (2-for-4, run, double).

Relief pitcher Colby Vollmer earned the victory after striking out three while allowing four hits and zero walks over 3 2/3 scoreless innings.

Basler keeps Patriot perfect

Luke Basler pitched a four-hitter Monday to help Patriot remain undefeated at 9-0 with a 7-2 win over Greenville (South Carolina) High at the Hanahan Invitational baseball tournament in Summerville, S.C. Andrew Casey went 3-for4 with a run, RBI and steal for the Bobcats, while Eli Serrano went 1-for-2 with two runs, a steal and walk.

Kyle VanDenburg added two steals and a run.

DiMauro powers Brentsville

Vince DiMauro's four RBIs led the Brentsville Tigers to a 9-5 victory over Marshall's baseball team Saturday to keep them undefeated at 8-0.

The Tigers scored four runs in the first inning and four in the fourth for an early 9-1 lead. DiMauro finished 3-for-3 with a double while Jake DeLisi went 2-for-4 with three RBIs and two runs.

Luke Binstead went 1-for-3 with three runs and a walk, while Braeden Deslippe had two runs and a walk.

Sam Beard earned the pitching victory by striking out six while allowing one unearned run on three walks and a hit over 3 2/3 innings.

THE EDUCATION OF MASON DIAZ Brentsville grad balances college with second Xfinity Series start

By Noah Fleischman Special to the Times

Mason Diaz had engine trouble on lap 63.

That sums up the performance of the 19-year-old stock car driver in the ToyotaCare 250 NASCAR race at Richmond Raceway last weekend.

The 2018 Brentsville High graduate and Manassas native was running in 20th MASON DIAZ place but fell to 36th when he lost the engine. He did not return to the NASCAR Xfinity Series event won by Cole Custer.

“When my engine broke, I was just trying to get out of the way of everyone else before a huge wreck started,” Diaz said. “A bad vibration started about two laps prior of the engine actually breaking. Then the oil pressure went away and the water started spewing out of the engine down the front stretch.”

Diaz is juggling his life as an Old Dominion University freshman with races on two NASCAR circuits. He enters events that coordinate with his ODU classes. He’ll travel as far north as New Hampshire and also down to Florida.

“The hardest part about balancing school and racing is just knowing my schedule and making sure all of my assignments are done before race weekend,” Diaz said. “The teachers at my school tend to work with me in missing classes. I try to not miss classes much, so when I talk to the teach-

Brentsville High graduate Mason Diaz, 19, made his second NASCAR start in Richmond and did not finish.

He’s going to school at Old Dominion University and racing on weekends. ers about missing it isn’t an inconvenience.”

Rain was pouring at times in Richmond, forcing NASCAR officials to cancel the Xfinity qualifying. Starting positions were awarded by owner points, so Diaz started 16th.

Diaz said his car lost the power steering. To make sure he got off the track, he shut the engine off to coast before starting it up again to drive onto pit road.

Friday night’s race marked Diaz’s second career Xfinity Series start, as he finished 19th in the Go Bowling 250 last September in Richmond.

He piloted the No. 86 Solid Rock Carriers Chevrolet Friday night for Brandonbilt Motorsports, the same team he raced for in his Xfinity series debut.

Diaz is also running in NASCAR’s K&N East Series full time for the 2019 campaign. He has

raced in the first two races so far in the series — New Smyrna and Bristol — finishing a season-best eighth place at Bristol on April 6.

Diaz will run in the South Boston 250, a part of the K&N East Series, May 4 in South Boston, Virginia.

“The first two K&N races went well in my opinion,” Diaz said. “We are a new team, I’m a new driver to the series. Last two races we should have had two top five finishes. The first one we ran out of fuel and the second one … I overdrove it.”

“The goal this season in the K&N tour is to complete every race and run for the Sunoco Rookie of the Year award,” Diaz said.

The K&N series schedule consists of 13 races, spanning from as far north as Loudon, New Hampshire to as far south as New Smyrna, Florida.

Sealock leads Battlefield to wild 13-11 softball win over Westfield

By Jeff Malmgren Times Staff Writer

Keelie Sealock went 4-for-5 and scored on an error in the top of the ninth inning as Battlefield earned a wild 13-11 softball victory over Westfield on Monday.

Westfield forced extra innings by rallying from an 8-6 deficit in the bottom of the seventh.

The teams each scored three runs in the eighth inning, but Battlefield pitcher Megan Webb held the Bulldogs scoreless in the bottom of the ninth for a complete-game victory that gave the Bobcats a 6-8 record.

A sophomore, Sealock had four hits, four runs, three RBIs, three steals and two doubles. Makiya Himes added one run on 3-for-5 hitting, while Kelsey Ryan went 2-for5 with a run and RBI.

King leads Woodbridge baseball over Fauquier 6-3

Bryce King pitched a complete game three-hitter Monday and went 2-for-2 as the Woodbridge baseball team downed Fauquier 6-3.

Fauquier (2-7) took an early 3-2 lead, but the Vikings (3-6) scored four runs in the second inning and King got hot, firing five hitless innings. King struck out four while

allowing three runs with three walks over seven innings.

Will Pope hit a two-run homer and finished 1-for-3, while Eric Hiett went 1-for-2 with two runs and a walk. King added two steals, an RBI and walk, while Christopher Hund had two steals, two RBIs and a double on 1-for-3 hitting.

For Fauquier, Clay Goff went 1-for-2 with a run, RBI and walk.

OP baseball wins again

Winning pitcher Jack Braley combined with Amiel Pasacsac on a four-hit shutout as the Osbourn Park Yellow Jackets improved to 7-4 with a 14-0 win over T.C. Williams on Monday.

Braley struck out eight while allowing only three hits and a walk over six innings.

Offensively, the Yellow Jackets stole 10 bases and were led by Mario Duarte, who went 5-for-5 with two runs, two RBIs and a steal. A.J. Shepard went 2-for-3 with two runs, two steals, a walk and RBI. Liam Gannon went 2-for-4 with a run, RBI, double, walk and steal, while Shane Saunders went 1-for-2 with three steals, two walks, a triple, run and RBI. Angel Pedroza went 1-for-2 with two runs and an RBI.

Battlefield-Patriot rematch is April 23 RIVALRY, page 15 “It would be nice to go farther this year … but we take it one game at a time,” Ackerman said. “We shall not speak of the goal. We’re not supposed to talk about it.”

Hilton has a similarly young Battlefield team with only six returning starters and nine freshmen. Seven freshmen played Friday, including four starters in Kelly Isabel, Hannah Van Roe, Kaeli Luong and Lilly Lovell.

“We’ve always not been afraid to throw freshmen in and let them get that experience,” he said. “They’re quality players.”

Hilton’s expectations haven’t dropped for a program that has a 105-12-2 record over six seasons with an average victo-

ry margin of an incredible 3.9 goals per game.

An impressive 14-5 record in 2018 was actually a relatively down season for the Bobcats. Hilton views his 2019 team as a more skilled unit, but one that lacks some physical size and aggressiveness.

The Bobcats’ returning starters are goalkeeper Ashley Donahoe, center back Hannah Karas, back Zariah Pickett, back Brianna Gilbert, midfielder Jenna Daunt, forward Carleigh Frilles and forward Bri Robinson, who leads them in scoring this season with 12 goals.

“I feel confident the girls can respond to [losing] the match today,” Hilton said.

“Adversity is always a little bit of a good thing to have at this point in the season.”

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC OF AN APPLICATION BY VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY FOR REVISION OF A RATE ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE: RIDER U, NEW UNDERGROUND DISTRIBUTION FACILITIES, FOR THE RATE YEAR COMMENCING FEBRUARY 1, 2020 CASE NO. PUR-2019-00046 •Dominion Energy Virginia (“Dominion”) has applied for approval to revise its Rider U, by which Dominion recovers the costs of its Strategic Underground Program.

•Dominion requests a total of $51.517 million for its 2020 Rider U. According to Dominion, this amount would decrease the monthly bill of a typical residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month by $0.51, for a total Rider U bill impact of $1.33 per month.

•A Hearing Examiner appointed by the Commission will hear the case on July 16, 2019.

•Further information about this case is available on the SCC website at: http://www.scc.virginia.gov/case.

On March 25, 2019, Virginia Electric and Power Company (“Dominion” or “Company”) filed an application (“Application”) with the State Corporation Commission (“Commission”) for revision of a rate adjustment clause, designated Rider U, pursuant to, among other things, § 56-585.1 A 6 (“Subsection A 6”) of the Code of Virginia. Through its Application, the Company seeks to recover costs associated with the Company’s Strategic Underground Program (“SUP”) for the rate year February 1, 2020, through January 31, 2021 (“2020 Rate Year”).

The Company asserts that Subsection A 6 provides that the replacement of any subset of a utility’s existing overhead distribution lines that have, in the aggregate, an average of nine or more total unplanned outage events-per-mile over a preceding 10-year period with new underground facilities in order to improve electric service reliability is in the public interest. The Company further states that Subsection A 6 provides that these conversions are deemed to provide local and system-wide benefits, to be cost beneficial, and that the costs associated with such new underground facilities are deemed to be reasonably and prudently incurred. Moreover, the Company asserts Subsection A 6 mandates that the Commission approve recovery of such costs so long as the total costs associated with the replacement of overhead tap lines with underground facilities do not exceed an average cost per customer undergrounded of $20,000 and an average cost per mile of $750,000, exclusive of financing costs.

In addition to an annual update to approved cost recovery associated with the SUP, the Company seeks cost recovery for phase four (“Phase Four”) of the SUP, designed to convert an additional 246 miles of overhead tap lines to underground at a capital investment of approximately $123.0 million with an average cost per mile of $500,000 and an average cost per customer undergrounded of $9,264. Dominion states that its actual expenditures for Phase Four incurred through January 31, 2019, are $38.1 million, and projected expenditures for the period February 1, 2019, through January 31, 2020, are approximately $85.0 million. The Company is requesting to recover the costs of Phase Four through Rider U for only those projects that will be completed prior to February 1, 2020.

The Company states that the two key components of the Rider U revenue requirement are the Projected Cost Recovery Factor and the Actual Cost True-up Factor. The Company states that the revenue requirement associated with the costs of the previously approved SUP phases totals $29.183 million, which includes a Projected Cost Recovery Factor of $32.079 million, and an Actual Cost True-up Factor credit of $2.896 million. The Company also states that the Projected Cost Recovery Factor revenue requirement for Phase Four costs totals $22.335 million. In total, the Company seeks approval of revised Rider U with an associated revenue requirement in the amount of $51.517 million for the 2020 Rate Year. For purposes of the projected revenue requirements, the Company proposes a 9.2% return on equity, as approved by the Commission in its Final Order in Case No. PUR-2017-00038.

The impact on customer bills of revised Rider U will depend on the customer’s rate schedule and usage. The Company asserts that implementation of the proposed Rider U beginning on February 1, 2020, would decrease the monthly bill of a residential customer using 1,000 kWh per month by $0.51 over the current Rider U, for a total Rider U bill impact of $1.33 per month.

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 July 16, 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. Any person desiring to testify as a public witness at this hearing should appear fifteen (15) minutes prior to the starting time of the hearing and contact the Commission’s Bailiff.

Interested persons also may download unofficial copies from the Commission’s website: http://www.scc.virginia.gov/case.

Green grows the land Valley View Farm poised for second century of successful stewardship

COURTESY PHOTOS

Valley View Farm is home to Gnarled Orchard Hard Cidery, Nobel Hive Meadery, Valley View Cellars, and Strother Family Vineyards. Premium wines, hard cider and mead are available in the Locavore Farm Market Taproom.

By John Hagarty

Contributing Writer

It’s a story we are all familiar with: the disappearing family farm. In 1920, there were more than 6 million farms scattered from sea to shining sea. Today 2 million are left.

And while that number is stabilizing, it’s the big boys that are increasingly plowing the earth, not mom and dad.

So, it’s refreshing to hear a story that began at the height of family farming a century ago and is still going strong. Swing open the garden gate and let’s learn about Fauquier County’s Valley View Farm.

“My great-grandfather purchased the land for my grandfather back in the 1920s. He operated a beef and horse farm and rode in the Cobbler Hunt with George Patton of World War II fame,” said Philip Carter Strother.

Starting as a farm, Belle Meade Products (later

Philip Carter Strother and his family represent the third generation of family farming in Fauquier County. Their role as stewards is a legacy they hope to leave for future generations.

Distillery) was created in 1934 by Daniel C. Sands, Barrett Elliott and C. Edward Strother, Philip’s great-grandfather. With the end of prohibition in the United States in 1933, Belle Meade produced whiskey at a cost of 31 cents per gallon. The whiskey was taken in tanks by railroad to Richmond, where it was bottled, labeled and sold.

Strother, 49, is the current owner of both the farm and Philip Carter Winery in Hume. The farm itself encompasses 500 acres in the scenic Delaplane Valley off U.S. 17.

“Twenty-six years ago, my grandfather planted the first peach orchard and started a pickyour-own operation. We have been welcoming people to the farm the ever since, he said.”

Strother is quick to point out he does not call himself the owner of the farm. Rather he’s the steward. Why? “This is a generational farm. We believe as a family we are here for a short time and during that time the person who has management authority

over the farm is the steward.

“It’s that person’s responsibility to leave the farm a little bit better than it came to them. To carry it forward, to preserve it, to maintain it and to enhance it for the next generation,” Strother said.

Today that modest peach orchard beginning has been dramatically expanded to include all manner of agricultural-related products, including fruit, vegetables, social lubricants, family activities and more.

To visit the farm is to take a three-hour graduate course in farming. “When guests come out to Valley View, they’re going to get a hands-on farming experience,” explained Strother. The operation embodies the best of what is known as agritourism.

With the ongoing disappearance of family farming, today’s generation of both adults and children See GROWS, page 20

Valley View Farm poised for second century of successful stewardship GROWS, from page 19 have minimal knowledge of how grocery store products are actually produced. Just grab some corn, green beans, a couple of steaks and head to the checkout counter. This stuff came from the land? Interesting.

Nature’s bounty

Depending upon the timing of the

harvest, the farm acts as an open-air grocery store or a farmers market on steroids.

Consider what you can buy from their bountiful “aisles:” Fruit butters, honey, jellies, jams, preserves, syrups, salsas, salad dressings, cheeses, fudge, peanuts, strawberries, squash, beans, peas, radishes, corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, zucchini, potatoes, beets, carrots, onions,

broccoli and even sunflowers.

Then the real fun begins. Before or after heading out to the fields to pick their own grocery basket, guests can stop by the farm’s tasting room and enjoy a glass of hard cider, mead, peach wine, or white or red table wine. A 45-acre on-site vineyard supports both the farm’s wine production and its winery in Hume.

If guests elect to enjoy a delicious glass of cold cider, they can then go to the orchard and pick the fruit that produced the classic farm beverage.

Honey bee initiative

Philip Carter Strother overlooks his property at Valley View Farm in Delaplane.

He also owns Philip Carter Winery in Hume.

In keeping with Strother’s stewardship philosophy, this spring a partnership initiative with George Mason University will release up to a half a million honey bees that will support 10 hives.

The high annual loss of honey bees, as well as range reduction and local extinctions of both wild and native pollinators, are of great concern within the farming community.

Approximately one-third of the typical Western diet requires bee pollination and honey bees are the primary pollinators of numerous food crops, including fruits, nuts, vegetables and oilseeds. Annually, insect-pollinated crops are valued at approximately $175 billion in the United States.

The effort will focus on developing resistance to a virus attacking queen bees that has been decimating the honey bee population. The university will manage the hives and retain the

ensuing research for the study.

In exchange, the farm will be given the honey for use in tastings, sales and mead production. It’s always fun to support an effort that benefits both man and nature. Especially when a tasty adult beverage is involved.

Not content to lean on its pitchfork, this season the farm will open a viewing zoo to showcase the numerous delights of farm world inhabitants.

“We will have some Highland cattle, emus, llamas, pigs, and many more farm animals, some more unique than others, Strother said.

“It will give suburbanites who are not used to seeing farm animals in their daily life the opportunity” to see them up close and personal.

Another initiative is a collaborative effort with Sky Meadows State Park to restore an old farm road that backdrops both properties. When completed, it will allow guests from both the farm and the park to hike, jog and even ride horses between the two venues.

“The stables would be in Sky Meadows and people could ride over to Valley View. We will have a hitching post and guests could have a pint of cider or glass of wine and then head back to Sky Meadows on horseback,” said Strother.

This spring the farm will also partner with Hidden Creek Farm which, will provide organically grown vegetables in addition to what is grown at Valley View Farm.

Aptly named, Valley View Farm sits on 500 acres overlooking the pristine Delaphane valley near U.S. 17.

A pumpkin patch and new corn maze will round out the end of harvest fun.

In summarizing what he seeks to achieve, Strother says, “My commitment is to do the best I can to contribute to our long traditions of agriculture in the commonwealth and to make the past pastoral ideal accessible to as many people as possible. Guests can come and appreciate quality products that are grown here in Virginia,” he said.

It’s gratifying that a unique place like Valley View Farm is managed by a steward whose vision for next the century is to be even more productive than in its storied past.

For the love of music: Local band ‘Schreiner’ releases first album COURTESY PHOTOS

John Schreiner solo gigs as well as performances with his band.

By John Hagarty

Contributing Writer

Two local men who thrive as rock and rhythm and blues artists could also be viewed as musical philosophers. The intensity of their onstage sound is equaled only by their passion for music and its impact on humanity.

On Saturday, April 20, they will release their first album, titled “Kingdom From.” It will be available from Spotify and iTunes. On the same night, their band, “Schreiner” will perform live at Uptown Alley in Manassas at 8:30 p.m.

The talent these men possess seems secondary to how they see their craft and their commitment to be the best. Music reflects their emotional and artistic core.

“I believe that artists serve a vital and nearly biological function for humanity. Musicians stand on the border of nature and culture and look into it, tell the truth of those stories and enrich the lives of people,” John Schreiner said.

Schreiner, 31, married with a newborn son, is the leader and multi-instrument virtuoso of the group simply called Schreiner as in “Schreiner is finer.”

His onstage reflection is bass player Jay Glaspy.

“I met John at the New Life Church in Gainesville shortly after moving here in 2014. My wife and I attended our first service there during the Christmas season, to meet people since we were new to the area. John was the worship leader at the time, and he played in the church group,” said Glaspy.

“After seeing the band play, I wondered if they needed a bass player. They did. And after a couple of years of playing together, we formed Schreiner. Attending that church service was probably the most important thing that happened in my life.”

That’s not an idle sentiment, since Glaspy, 41, is a recently retired Green Beret. He served five combat tours in Afghanistan in the Special Forces and had earned a Bronze Star for valor at the time he met Schreiner.

He was working in cybersecurity for a year after his military service but realized after joining forces with Schreiner that he wanted to pursue music full-time.

Today, their three-piece band is a tight unit,

with one of four skilled drummers performing with them based on availability.

John Schreiner

Schreiner grew up in Warrenton; his family moved here when he was 12. That’s when he began writing and playing Christian contemporary music.

“I knew I was going to be a professional musician when I was 9 years old. Music has been the defining feature of my life,” he said.

He started college in Minnesota but later transferred to Lee University in Tennessee, graduating with a degree in vocal music performance. For most of his college years, he studied opera and performed in numerous operatic roles. “I thought for a time I would pursue opera professionally. I knew I had the chops for it,” he said.

He also played in a Christian band called Myrrh, releasing two albums before deciding to shift to country music with the release of his third album.

His eventual evolution to blended rock and rhythm and blues came when he realized, “You kind of pursue rock at your own peril because of the demands it places on your voice. That’s why I wound up between rock and R&B. Those are the juicy genres for me and the most challenging,” he said.

His musical education led him to want “to become the best singer in the world.” He practiced tirelessly during his college years to hone the quality of his voice and his musical instrument.

Today he lives in Paris, Virginia, and performs 300 shows a year as both a solo artist, and increasingly, with his own band. His solo gigs include weekly performances at Mastro’s, a high-end steakhouse in the heart of D.C. He is also well known for his private party and corporate Fortune 500 performances, including shows at the MGM National Harbor Hotel.

Jay Glaspy

Glaspy grew up in Los Angeles and is a lifelong music fan. He was a high-school athlete and joined the U.S. Army at age 18. Within three years he was accepted into the Special Forces, after meeting its demanding requirements.

As fate would have it, he joined the elite command just before 9/11 and was deployed shortly thereafter with multiple combat tours in Afghani-

stan. He currently lives in Haymarket with his wife and two children.

Glaspy makes an insightful comparison between a high-caliber musician and a warrior.

“Working with an elite musician like John, I saw the same traits as being a member of the Special Forces. They share a strong work ethic and a relentless desire to master their craft.

“And it never ends.

JAY GLASPY Always seeking to improve and get better is the goal in both disciplines,” he said. “I took those principles and applied them to my music. Like the military, you find a good teacher and put in the hours to become successful.”

One of his go-to books embodying that principle is titled, “The Talent Code: Greatness Isn't Born. It's Grown. Here's How,” by Daniel Coyle.

The book says, “We tend to only see the end result when we watch masters in action. What we do not see are the 10,000 hours of hard work that went into that one moment. We become masters of our life through the same long-term, step-by-step process.”

Schreiner and Glaspy try to embody those principles each time they step on stage.

“It is constant work to make a dent in the music industry. John and I work really hard on what we do,” said Glaspy.

Schreiner’s April 20 performance at Uptown Alley in Manassas coincides with the release of the of their first album, “Kingdom From.” Cuts from two of the album’s songs, along with their performance schedule, can be found at www.schreinermusic.com.

Call it ‘Beanut Butter’

Hylton H.S. student featured on Lidl label for Autism Awareness month Staff Reports Eric “Bean” McKay, the Hylton High School student who made the news earlier this year by donating Lidl peanut butter to furloughed federal workers, now has his own brand of Lidl peanut butter. Call it “Beanut Butter.”

Last week, Lidl announced it is featuring Bean’s picture on a tie-dyed label of its creamy peanut butter for the month of April, in conjunction

with Autism Awareness Month.

Lidl is making the special peanut butter – or Beanut Butter -- available at all of its stores nationwide and will donate 10 cents from each jar purchased to the Autism Society, it said in a press release.

Like many kids with autism, Bean is sensitive to textures, and one of his favorite foods is Lidl’s creamy peanut butter.

Throughout April, starting Thursday, April 11, Lidl will also host spe-

Eric “Bean” McKay with his mom, Tracy.

cial “sensory evenings” every Thursday from 6 p.m. to close, according to a Lidl news release.

The goal is to make visiting the store a more welcoming experience for kids with autism by lowering the lights and turning down the music and in-store announcements. Lidl will even reduce the volume on the checkout scanners and offer “priority checkout” lines, the store said.

Bean, 15, first sparked a relationship with the Germany-based grocery store when its Dumfries store, on Va. 234, had a sale on peanut butter for 78 cents a jar.

His mom, Tracy McKay, took advantage of the reduced price and bought 72 jars of peanut butter.

With Bean’s habit of eating peanut-butter-and-jelly English muffins three times a day, they lasted the family only about eight months.

After the deal expired, Bean reached out to Lidl on Twitter.

Lidl promised him 72 more jars and presented him with a challenge. Lidl promised a “lifetime supply” of peanut butter if he could get 72,000 retweets on the offer.

He accepted, reached the Twitter goal (no easy feat) and was soon rewarded by Lidl with a pallet of peanut butter.

Lidl created a limited-edition label for its creamy peanut butter, dubbed “Beanut Butter,” that features its No. 1 fan: Hylton High School student Eric “Bean” McKay, 15. The label features McKay’s picture and tie-dye, another of Bean’s favorites. shutdown happened in December, Bean announced he would give his jars away to families affected by the impasse. His father is a federal worker. The offer earned coverage on several local and even national news outlets.

On Tuesday, April 2, Lidl released an ad for an exclusive “Beanut Butter” jar with Bean’s picture and a tie-dye cover in honor of his love of tie-dye clothing.

The special-labeled peanut butter will be available until the end of the month or while supplies last, the press release said.

Crabapple Trees Crabapples (Malus sp.) are a versatile and popular small tree for urban and suburban landscapes. More than 400 species and varieties are available. Flowers produced in early spring are white, pink or red. Fruit can vary in size and color, may last into winter to provide interest and food for wildlife.

As with most members of the rose family, crabapples are host to many insects and diseases. Common leaf chewing insects include tent caterpillars, Japanese beetles, gypsy moth and cankerworms. Aphids, scale and spider mites damage leaves or branches by removing sap with their sucking mouthparts.

Fireblight is the most devastating disease of crabapple. Caused by a bacterium which infects through the blooms, fireblight causes branch dieback and even death of susceptible varieties. Don’t let these pests deter you from planting crabapples in your landscape. There are many varieties available that are disease resistant.

MARK THE CALENDAR…

‘Chasing Light,’ part of One Love Manassas, set for April 27 Staff Reports Calling all local musicians, spoken word poets and anyone else intrigued by the idea of a community performance. Next week’s One Love Manassas festival will offer an opportunity for everyone to get into the act.

The second annual fine arts festival -- set for Friday, April 26 through Sunday, April 28 -- is designed to give artists a platform to share their art, raise awareness and inspire hope, according to a City of Manassas news release.

The festival is chock full of events that begin on Friday night and last through Sunday afternoon. They include live music, juried art competitions, a film showcase, the Battle of the Artists chalk art competition on Battle Street, an artist marketplace on Center Street and more.

“Chasing Light,” an art/light/music installation, will be a highlight of the three-day event.

On Saturday evening, participants are asked to head to the Harris Pavilion to pick up a light globe to carry to the Manassas Museum lawn, where “Chasing Light” will begin about 7 p.m.

This procession is called “Turn on your Light” and aims to inspire folks to shine their light for others, the release said.

The procession will end on the lawn with a live art recreation of the One Love logo followed by the “Chasing Light” performance, which is being funded by a grant from the Virginia Commission of the Arts.

Dallas artist Carmen Menza and her husband, Mark Menza, a composer, are the creators behind the event.

Mark Menza composed “Bull Run,” an original score, to accompany the light installation, which is

COURTESY IMAGE

Chasing Light, a multi-level art installation at the center of the Manassas One Love arts festival, April 26-28, will include 3D visuals and an original musical score to which audience members are invited to play along. designed by Carmen Menza.

Mark Menza wrote the music specifically for the City of Manassas. It’s a 21st century chamber piece that employs both recorded and live players and is juxtaposed to electronic and sampled sounds, the release said.

Because a central element of the work is improvisation--using elements of jazz, philharmonic, soundscape and an electronic score—it lends itself to improvisation by musicians attending the event. Musicians who wish to play along can find the sheet music at www. onelovemanassas.com.

Musicians will trigger elements of

the 3-D light show, which will transform throughout the evening. The projected visuals include abstract illuminated backgrounds and geometric objects created through camera shots and 3-D software, the release said.

Spoken word artists and dancers are also invited to collaborate during the performance.

“Participatory public art affords the experience of making something beautiful with those around us and strengthening a sense of community,” Mark Menza said in the release.

The Manassas Ballet Theatre will perform to Chasing Light at 9 p.m.

Mark Menza’s work may be fa-

miliar to those who have attended Manassas Ballet performances.

Menza composed the original musical score for “Colin: Son, Marine, Hero,” an original ballet that tells the story of Artistic Director Amy Grant Wolfe’s son Colin, a Marine who was killed by a roadside bomb in Iraq in 2006.

The Manassas Ballet premiered “Bull Run” at their March performance, “A Fantasque Evening.”

More information and a full schedule of events included in the One Love Manassas festival can be found at www.onelovemanassas.com.

Experience ‘Faces from the Past’, other programs at RELIC Staff Reports There will be plenty to hear, see and do in April at the Ruth E. Lloyd Information Center, or RELIC, at the Bull Run Regional Library at 8051 Ashton Ave., Manassas.

The display "Faces from the Past" features a portrait of two young women that was donated to RELIC some years ago. The women were believed to be two sisters of the Buckley family of Prince William County, and came with the suggestion, partly because of their appearance and dress, that the women may have been of "Indian blood."

The clothes and jewelry the women wore in the portrait, along with the style of the artwork, indicate that the drawing was made in the late 1870s.

The 1880 U.S. Census shows that Albert and Britannia Buckley lived in the Gainesville District with their seven children, including daughters Pocahontas, 27, Columbia, 23 and Pacific, 20. The boys included a son named Powhatan, 25, which seemed to suggest that there might be some truth to a connection to Native Americans.

RELIC staffer Beth Scott traced the family history back several generations and found no evidence of Indian ancestry. It seems the parents sim-

ply favored unusual names of historic significance and flair. The picture, along with the research, is on display at the library.

"Genealogy 201: Beyond the Basics" will teach the finer points of researching family history. RELIC's Don Wilson will demonstrate the techniques of successfully searching and evaluating free, online resources, such as newspapers, passenger lists, maps, books, census and manuscripts that can add detail and interest to a family's history. The class will be held at the library from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 18. Register for the free class at 703-792-4540 or relic2@ pwcgov.org. Registration is required.

"The Story of Ravensworth" is one of a colonial settlement, early government, tobacco plantations, slavery, civil war, economic expansion, the rise and decline of family farms, and suburban development in Fairfax County. Famous people including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Robert E. Lee, and others not so famous, figured into Ravensworth Plantation's history. Author John Browne will share the story at the library from 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 23. Register at 703-792-4540 or relic2@ pwcgov.org. The event is free.

RELIC manager Angie Miller said the fun in researching is in the discovering. "You're always

learning new things,” she said. “You think you know what happened and then you find out maybe something else happened. There are often surprises."

For more information about RELIC and the programs offered there, visit pwcgov.org/relic.

“Genealogy 201: Beyond the Basics” is among the events sponsored this month by the Ruth E. Lloyd Information Center, also known as RELIC, at the Bull Run Regional Library.

Jesus Christ, 33, of Nazareth, died Friday on Mount Calvary, also known as Golgotha, the place of the Skull. Betrayed

by Judas, Jesus was crucified by the Romans, by order of the Ruler, Pontius Pilate. The causes of death were crucifixion, extreme exhaustion, severe torture, and loss of blood.

Jesus Christ, a descendant of Abraham, was a member of the house of David. He was the Son of the late Joseph, a carpenter of Nazareth and Mary, His devoted Mother. Jesus was born in a stable in the city of Bethlehem. He is survived

by His mother Mary, His brothers ( James, Joseph, Simon and Judas), His sisters, His faithful disciples, and many followers.

Jesus was self-educated and spent most of His adult life working as a Teacher. Jesus also occasionally worked as a medical doctor and it is reported that he healed many patients. Up until the time of His death, Jesus was teaching and sharing the Good News, healing the sick, touching the lonely, feeding the hungry, and helping the poor.

Jesus was most noted for telling parables about his Father’s Kingdom and performing miracles, such as feeding over 5,000 people with only 5 lives of bread and two fish, and healing a man who was born blind. On the day before His death, He held a Last Supper celebrating the Passover Feast, at which He foretold His death.

The body was quickly buried in a stone grave, which was donated by Joseph of Arimathea, a loyal friend of the family.

By order of Pontius Pilate, a boulder was rolled in front of the tomb. Roman soldiers were put on guard.

In lieu of flowers, the family has requested that everyone try to live as Jesus did. Donations may be sent to anyone in need.
