Governor to Virginia: Stay home Gov. Ralph Northam authorizes police to enforce ban on groups of 10 or more Staff Reports Gov. Ralph Northam issued on Monday what he called a “stay-at-home” order for all Virginians, a move that continues to allow people to leave their homes for essentials such as food, work and medical appointments, but “orders” residents to otherwise stay home.

Northam made the announcement during his March 30 press briefing, which occurred hours after the Virginia Department of Health reported the latest COVID-19 tallies. As of Tuesday, March 31, 1,250 people had tested positive across the state and deaths tied to the coronavirus stood at 27.

The order remains in effect until Wednesday, June 10, unless otherwise amended, according to a press release from Northam’s office.

Northam said he believes most Virginians are complying with his requests to stay at home as much as possible. But he expressed frustration that the state’s beaches and other recreational areas “were literally packed” over the past weekend.

“I will remind those folks, you are being very, very selfish,” Northam added, “because you are putting all of us, and especially our health care providers, at risk.”

The order closes all Virginia beaches except for exercise and fishing, Northam said.

Northam said golf courses can remain open under the order, but that clubhouses must close.

Most other recreational areas, both indoor and outdoor, have already closed across the state.

In response to a reporter’s question, Northam said local police have the authority to charge people with a Class 1 misdemeanor if they violate the

ban on gatherings of more than 10 people. The charge is punishable by up to 12 months in jail, a fine of $2,500, or both.

But Northam downplayed any intent to arrest those who don’t comply.

“This is not a time when we’re looking to put people in jail, but it is a time when we want people to comply,” Northam said. “To date, this has been a suggestion to Virginians,” he added. “Today, it is an order.”

“Individuals may leave their residences for allowable travel, including to seek medical attention, work, care for family or household members, obtain goods and services like groceries, prescriptions, and others as outlined” in Northam’s earlier Executive Order 53, which was issued last week, the press release said.

The order also directs all Virginia institutions of higher education to stop in-person classes and instruction, the press release said.

Prince William officials will consider this week a proposal to spend an extra $10 million to buy 27,000 computers – one for every high school student in county schools – to facilitate online instruction amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, which has closed School Board all Virginia public schools for Chair Dr. Babur the rest of the year.

Lateef School Board Chairman Dr. Babur Lateef (At Large) sent a letter to the board of supervisors Sunday asking for $5 million in emergency funding for the new computers.

‘A really dire situation’ Some immigrant workers are left without benefits amid pandemic

By Daniel Berti

Times Staff Writer

As jobless claims soar, federal officials have taken steps to expand unemployment insurance and secure one-time, $1,200 checks for millions of Americans impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. But those initiatives are leaving out some of the area’s most vulnerable residents: those whose immigration status is in limbo.

Only people with valid Social Security numbers and those who qualify as “resident aliens” will receive the federal aid checks. Immigrants who are in the process of obtaining political asylum or otherwise lack the ability to legally work in the U.S. are not eligible. Those who have been laid off from their jobs likely won’t qualify for unemployment benefits either, advocates say.

Non-U.S. citizens in Prince William County by district

“Without a work authorization, undocumented workers won’t be able to collect unemployment insurance benefits,” said Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, legal director for Legal Aid Justice Center’s Immigrant Advocacy Program.

In Prince William County, undocumented individuals are estimated to make up about 8% of the population, or 37,000 people, according to the Migration Policy Institute. Advocates say the lack of assistance for undocumented families is extremely concerning.

“It’s a really dire situation,” Sandoval-Moshenberg said. “One paycheck could make the difference between paying rent or not.”

Prince William Times spoke Monday with two undocumented women living in the county who were laid off from their jobs last week. Both asked to remain anonymous so they could safely share their stories.

The first, a 33-year-old single mother who lives in Dumfries, said she lost her job at a local thrift store last week. She said she lives in a mobile home with her 8-month-old son and her mother, who is on dialysis and is unable to work.

She said she lost her job Friday, March 20, after the store began laying off employees.

“There were no customers coming in because of the coronavirus,” she said.

The loss of income, about $350 a week, is her biggest concern because she pays for rent, utilities and food for her family, as well as her mother’s dialysis medication, which costs about $800 a month, she said.

“My son, he’s little but he still needs food and diapers. And my mom needs her medication, which is a big concern,” she said.

She said she doesn’t know how she’s going to pay rent this month. “I don’t know if the owner is going to let us stay here,” she said.

She said she’s lived in the United States since she was 6 when her mother came to the U.S. from Mexico, but she’s not a recipient of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals or DACA program.

The other, a 28-year-old undocumented resident of Manassas, said she lost her job at a restaurant last week. She said the owners closed the

The largest populations of non-U.S. citizens living in Prince William are located in Woodbridge and Neabsco magisterial districts. Non-U.S. citizens make up about 19% of the total population of the Woodbridge District, or 13,000 people, and about 17% of the total population of the Neabsco District, or 10,000 people.

restaurant because of the pandemic, leaving her and her co-workers without jobs, and she doesn’t know when it will open again.

“I’ve been at home. I’m not getting paid right now,” she said.

She said she makes about $320 a week after taxes and pays about $500 a month in rent living with a roommate. But she doesn’t know if she’ll be able to pay it next month if she doesn’t find a new job.

She said she’s been looking for work in local grocery stores and as a landscaper, but nobody is hiring.

“Even though we’re in a pandemic, I still need to find work,” Lopez said.

Luis Aguilar, executive director at CASA de Virginia, said the organization has heard from countless undocumented people in recent weeks who’ve been laid off from their jobs and are facing an uncertain future.

“Undocumented workers and their families are being directly hit by the pandemic,” Aguilar said.

The main industries that employ the region’s undocumented workers – construction, retail and restaurants – have been hit hard by the crisis, with many businesses cutting hours and laying off workers to comply with the Virginia’s 10-person limit on social gatherings, he said “They don’t know how they’re

going to pay for basic expenses like housing, utilities and food,” Aguilar said.

Last Thursday, March 26, the U.S. Department of Labor reported that 46,885 unemployment claims had been filed in Virginia between Saturday, March 14 and Saturday, March 21 – an unprecedented spike in unemployment in a state where weekly claims, under normal circumstances, typically number fewer than 4,000.

The report said the increase in unemployment claims is concentrated in the service industries, particularly accommodation and food services. But for undocumented people, filing for unemployment benefits isn’t an option.

One silver lining is that Virginia tenants won’t have to worry about being evicted this month. The Virginia Supreme Court announced March 26 it would extend a ban on eviction proceedings until Monday, April 26. But advocates say it’s only a short-term fix.

Sandoval-Moshenberg said he expects a wave of evictions when the crisis is over unless additional steps are taken to protect Virginia tenants.

“Folks are thinking that the eviction crisis is solved. It’s really just deferred,” Sandoval-Moshenberg said.

Jorge Figueredo, executive director of the nonprofit Edu-Futuro, said the organization is working to set up

an emergency fund to assist people who can’t pay their rent during the crisis. He said the pause on evictions is only a temporary solution.

“When this passes, three months from now, the landlord is going to say, ‘Where is my rent?’” Figueredo said.

Based in Arlington, Edu-Futuro primarily works to empower immigrant families to navigate Virginia’s public school system and mentors high school students through the college application process. But the nonprofit’s mission has expanded during the ongoing pandemic.

Edu-Futuro staff made more than 300 calls to their families this past week. Out of about 100 contacts, 62% reported jobs lost amid the crisis. Many of the families they help work in hospitality, restaurants and construction, Figueredo said.

“This is about our neighbors. This is our community. It is our responsibility to take care of each other,” Figueredo said.

Prince William County Supervisor Margaret Angela Franklin, D-Woodbridge, said she will be fighting to guarantee that those living in vulnerable communities come out stronger than before as county budget discussions move forward.

“Unfortunately, one of the most vulnerable populations is our undocumented community, as they are unable to access federal aid and live in fear of asking for help or getting tested,” Franklin said Monday in an email.

The Woodbridge district has the highest non-citizen population of any Prince William County magisterial district, with an estimated non-citizen population of about 13,000, or about 19% of the district’s total population, according to U.S. Census data.

“During this time of hardship, we are working to guarantee that all residents, including those who are undocumented, have access to resources they need most,” Franklin said.

“This includes working on a local level to provide school meals to children; providing food and care items for individuals and families; guaranteeing that those who are homeless and low income have access to safe dwelling units and providing relief for small businesses, many of whom are minority-owned.”

making to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus in the jails.

Lambert said the jail, courts, commonwealth’s attorney’s office and the county’s department of criminal justice services have been using evidence-based practices more often to keep some low-risk offenders out of jail while they await their trials, which can take weeks or months.

“The use of pretrial services has become more frequent. And there’s been a steady decline in the jail population,” Lambert said.

Defendants on pretrial supervision are typically monitored by pretrial officers who aim to ensure they stay out of trouble while they await their court dates.

The increased use of pretrial alternatives also means there are fewer people taking up costly jail beds. In 2018, it cost the county about $90 per day to house a single person at the jail.

Steven Austin, the county’s director of Criminal Justice Services, said the county’s pretrial caseload has increased dramatically in recent years.

In the last year alone, the county’s pretrial caseload rose by about 22%, he said. And that will likely increase even more in the coming years.

Restricting movement as much as possible is a strategy to keep asymptomatic people from spreading the disease to those in higher risk groups, which could strain the state’s hospitals.

Still, Northam said stopping the spread of the

get predicts that by 2025, the county’s Pretrial Supervision Program is expected to grow an additional 183%.

“The court is relying much more on pretrial services to supervise defendants who are released and pending trial,” Austin said.

In addition to the growth of the county’s pretrial caseload, Austin said court officials have set fewer cash bails for defendants since January. Pretrial data provided by the Office of Criminal Justice Service show a 25% increase in the use of “personal recognizance” and unsecured bonds since the beginning of the year.

Personal recognizance and unsecured bonds do not require defendants to pay the court to be released from jail.

“For individuals placed on pretrial services as a condition of release, the court is using cash bond less frequently,” Austin said.

The jail is undergoing an expansion to add 204 beds. The project is due to be complete in July. It’s not clear whether the construction timeline will be affected by the ongoing coronavirus crisis.

“Our message to Virginians is clear: Stay home. We know this virus spreads primarily through human-to-human contact, and that’s why it’s so important that people follow this order and practice social distancing. I’m deeply grateful to everyone for their cooperation during this unprecedented and difficult time.”

COMPUTERS, from page 1 The school board would match the amount with $5 million in school division funds, Lateef said.

If the supervisors agree, the school board would move to purchase the devices as soon as possible to help high school students continue their coursework amid the school closures. The school division has only partially launched online instruction so far but plans to make more resources and lessons available to students soon, according to the school division website.

It might take several weeks to purchase and obtain the devices, but the goal is to have them in students’ hands before the end of this school year, Lateef said in an interview Sunday afternoon.

“The sooner we do this, the sooner we can start doing the online instruction,” Lateef said. “I make no promises, but that’s what the goal is.”

Lateef said the computers would be purchased for all high school students and eighth-graders taking high school courses. The school division is working hard to ensure that seniors, especially, can successfully complete the courses they need to graduate. State officials have already said changes are under way to ensure that every senior on track to graduate will do so. But high school seniors who are struggling in their coursework or already behind in credits are a particular concern, Lateef said.

Beyond that, Lateef said the school division has struggled with switching to online instruction thus far because they know many families lack enough home computers to allow each child to participate, especially when so many parents are also working from home.

Lateef, who is an ophthalmologist, further said he’s concerned the start of next school year could

be delayed next fall because of the pandemic or that schools might have to re-close some time next fall depending on a possible “second wave” of the virus.

“I do not want the school division to be caught like this again. We cannot be caught unaware and without the ability to do online learning for all our students,” he said.

“To me, this is a $5 million ask in the midst of a crisis to help our students catch up,” he added.

Before sending the letter to the board of supervisors, Lateef polled the school board on the idea Friday, March 27. The board voted 8-0 in favor of it, Lateef said.

computers,” Wheeler said. “I think it’s a tangible action that would have positive results. It doesn’t get any better in my mind.”

The school board has not yet determined what kind of computers would be purchased. If the money is approved, the school division will likely put out a “request for proposals” in an effort to take bids on the devices, Lateef said.

Because many school divisions around the country are making similar large-scale technology purchases, some items, such as Google Chromebooks, are already on a back order, which is another reason time is of the essence, Lateef said.

COVID-19 NEWS BRIEFS Man in his 70s is county’s first COVID-19 death A Prince William County man in his 70s who had been battling COVID-19 in the hospital has died, local health department officials announced Friday, March 27.

The man suffered “chronic medical conditions” and was being treated in an area hospital.

His close contacts were previously investigated.

The cause of his death was respiratory failure as a result of COVID-19, according to a Prince William Health District announcement.

“Our hearts go out to his family and loved ones,” Prince William Health District Director Dr. Alison Ansher said in a statement.

The announcement did not include the man’s name, area of residence within the county nor the hospital where he was undergoing treatment.

The Prince William Health District has not released information about individual cases since Tuesday, March 17, when the county reported its fourth case.

In the announcement, the health district reiterated the symptoms of COVID-19, which most commonly are fever, cough and shortness of breath.

Symptoms generally appear within 14 days of being exposed to a person infected with the virus. COVID-19 spreads primarily through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes.

Heritage Hunt residents told of 2 COVID-19 cases Two Heritage Hunt residents are among the 79 people in Prince William County who have tested positive for the coronavirus, residents were informed in a recent emails from the Gainesville community’s general manager.

In two separate emails, dated March 23 and March 30, Phil Pool, general manager of Heritage Hunt’s Homeowner’s Association, notified resi-

dents of the two cases in their Gainesville active adult community.

The Prince William Times obtained a copy of the emails from Heritage Hunt residents. Pool did not name the residents but said both had been under self-quarantine. The person involved in the second case had been hospitalized, the email said.

“The individual is in the hospital and was under self-quarantine prior to going there, and all close contacts of the resident have been advised,” Pool’s March 30 email said. “Please understand that we are not at liberty to give out any further information on the resident. Thank you for your understanding.”

Heritage Hunt has about 3,400 residents over the age of 55. It has a mix of 1,863 single-family, attached and condominium homes, which are located behind a gated entrance on Arthur Hills Drive in Gainesville.

Neabsco Creek boardwalk closed indefinitely The Neabsco Creek boardwalk and all parking lots, playing fields, basketball and tennis courts at Prince William County parks were closed to visitors indefinitely on Wednesday, March 25, to further promote “social distancing” amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

It follows earlier decisions to close the county’s indoor recreational facilities and to prohibit the use of about 50 county playgrounds. The play structures were wrapped with yellow caution tape late last week in an effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

Only the parks’ walking trails remained accessible to the public this week. And because the parking lots are closed, the intent is to limit access only to those who live within walking distance of the various parks, said Brent Heavner, spokesman for the Prince William County Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism.

County officials made the decision after noticing an uptick in park visitors since public schools were shuttered Monday, March 16, also due to the

coronavirus, Heavner said.

Visitors have included large groups playing basketball and soccer on park facilities despite new signs erected in the parks to stress the need for users to maintain social distancing, Heavner said.

The Neabsco Creek boardwalk and parking lot were closed for similar reasons. There were too many people using the boardwalk to ensure a separation of at least 6 feet between each visitor, Heavner said.

“It’s just not possible, with the volume of users, to maintain social distancing,” Heavner said.

It’s not clear when the county’s park facilities will reopen. The original announcement, issued Friday, March 13, said the closures would last until Tuesday, March 31.

But that was changed within hours. Now, there’s no definite timeline for reopening, Heavner.

Patrons who have already paid for recreational center passes or programs can be reimbursed or apply their fees to future programming.

Pass holders can opt to extend their passes beyond their expiration dates to make up for time lost due to the coronavirus closures, Heavner said.

The county has also shut down its registration website for programming, including registrations for summer camps.

Summer camps have not yet been canceled, however. At this time, it’s hoped that summer camps will still happen, but that will depend on the status of the coronavirus outbreak as the summer months approach, Heavner said.

COVID-19 challenges: On telework technology We’ve been told constantly that the less we interact personally, the fewer chances the coronavirus will have to spread. But social distancing doesn’t include using the internet, which has become the best means of staying productive and in contact with family, friends, work, school and the world.

For individuals and small businesses forced to telework, there are many helpful options. Here are just a few tips.

Keeping your distance: With some VOIP (voice over IP services, which handle phone calls via the internet), employees can take phone calls from their homes, and clients would not even notice the difference.

You could provide a remote access setup, so employees could work just as they would on their office computers. And if you use G-Suite for email communications, Google Meet has enabled free advanced hangout features for larger groups, live-streaming and recording. Webinars are great for classes, and there are many other internet options available for virtual business conferences.

Clean devices: Beside washing your hands, soaping thoroughly for at least 20 seconds, please remember to sanitize the technology you use fre-

quently, especially if they are shared by multiple people. Your cellphone, keyboard, mouse, touchscreen and remote controls are handled all the time; their surfaces become a haven for bacteria, viruses and possibly the coronavirus, too.

But how best to clean them? Unfortunately, each device might need a different treatment. Smartphone makers generally tell consumers to avoid disinfecting wipes or sprays on their devices to avoid damaging the coating on their touchscreen displays, but Apple has now updated their recommendations. With a 70 percent isopropyl alcohol wipe “you may gently wipe” the exterior surfaces of your iPhone. Don’t use bleach. Avoid getting moisture in any openings, and don’t submerge

your iPhone in any cleaning agents.”

See https://support.apple.com/en-us/ HT207123 for more details.

Our laptop guru, Steve, says that a light swipe with a Clorox disinfecting wipe is OK for phones with waterproof cases, desktop keyboards and mice. For cleaning laptop keyboards and remotes, he recommends wiping lightly with a lint-free cloth dampened with 70 percent isopropyl or rubbing alcohol. Again, no bleach. Clorox wipes are too wet; the last thing you need is for any moisture to get into the computer!

By the way, I found out that the UVlight cleaning box I got for a CPAP will actually sterilize phones and almost any smaller device, as well. There are also UV-phone cleaner boxes specifically made for cellphones.

Don’t forget to protect your devices from “computer viruses” as well and keep a vigilant eye out for new scams.

I just got an email offering a link to get CDC recommendations on how to deal with the coronavirus as a company owner. The document itself is legit and I downloaded it afterwards directly from the CDC website, but by clicking on the provided link in the email, I probably would have downloaded

some nasty malware, adware or spyware riders. Opportunistic phone or email scams may pose as fundraisers for reputable charities or health organizations but are really “phishing” for personal or credit card information. If it sounds fishy, hang up or trash that email without clicking.

Keep in touch: To maintain peace of mind and a positive outlook, it’s just as important to stay in touch with our family and friends. Reach out to people you might not have seen for a while, especially those who are anxious and in need of support.

I regularly Skype with my family, which is currently spread out across the United States and overseas in Germany and Zambia. And through Skype, Messenger, WhatsApp and many other free communication apps, we can talk to each other face-to-face, enjoy small group chats, record messages, send pictures and share videos.

This is hardly a substitute for hugs but can help keep voluntary or involuntary isolation from becoming unbearably lonely. You can also play games online with others. I enjoy playing Scrabble from time to time with my mom and See TELEWORK, page 7

More than 2,000 file for unemployment in Prince William

Virginia jobless claims spike during COVID-19 pandemic

Between March 14 and March 21, Unemployment unemployment claims jumped by more than claims 1,500%, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

As the coronavirus pandemic continues to upend daily life, thousands of county residents are suddenly finding themselves out of work.

According to the Virginia Employment Commission, 2,222 unemployment claims were filed by Prince William County workers between Saturday, March 14, and Saturday, March 21, up from 90 the week before – a nearly 2,400% week-overweek increase.

In the City of Manassas, 198 unemployment claims were filed during the same one-week period, up from 10 a week earlier.

Statewide, unemployment numbers have continued to climb as businesses close or cut hours to comply with Gov. Ralph Northam’s executive orders banning groups of more than 10 and mandating social-distancing rules.

The U.S. Department of Labor reported that 46,885 unemployment claims had been filed in Virginia between Saturday, March 14 and Saturday, March 21. Virginia’s weekly unemployment claims typically number fewer than 4,000.

The report said the increase in unemployment claims is concentrated in the service industries, particularly

accommodation and food services.

Gov. Ralph Northam’s administration has eased restrictions on the state’s unemployment insurance to include more workers and waived the one-week waiting period so workers can receive benefits more quickly.

“If individuals are out of work because of what we’re mandating, unemployment benefits will be allowed to them,” Northam said at a news conference.

This is likely only the beginning of new unemployment filings in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. Northam’s stay-at-home order and his earlier mandates for bars and restaurants to close to all but take-out service likely will prompt more filings in the coming days and weeks.

The $2 trillion dollar economic relief plan Congress passed Friday

includes expanded unemployment payments that will add an extra $600 per week on top of Virginia’s weekly benefit.

Normally, Virginia offers laid off workers up to $380 per week in unemployment benefits.

The federal stimulus package will also result in one-time payments to millions of Americans. Adults who make less than $75,000 a year are slated to receive the full $1,200 benefit. Married couples will receive up to $2,400, and families will receive $500 per child they claim on their tax returns.

The amount of emergency benefit decreases for those who make more than $75,000. Individuals earning more than $99,000, and couples making more than $198,000 after taxes do not qualify.

Clean shopping: To get around the current lack of availability for hygiene essentials and some staples, you can order things online and get them delivered to your door. More and more groceries and local stores are offering free curbside service to help keep people supplied. This is a good practice for minimizing personal contact.

Charlotte Kiffney, 8, helps out at the Fauquier Education Farm last weekend.

With kids stuck at home, why not start a garden?

Have you ever heard of the U.S. School Garden Army from the days of the first World War? (Look it up – it’ll be today’s history lesson.)

Our family recently learned about this program and found it great inspiration for expanding our garden in these uncertain times.

I work in the hospitality industry, so like many people, my hours have dwindled due to the COVID-19 epidemic, and my kids are now home from school for the foreseeable future. What better time to start, expand or revitalize a garden?

I am far from an expert on gardening, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned it’s that a little trial and error go a long way. I once planted a vine cucumber plant too close to a pear tree and ended up with cucumbers dangling from the branches.

Why plant a garden?

Food: Our 8-year-old’s favorite thing about gardening is eating the food. Be it fresh peas, raspberries, corn, melon or vine-ripe tomatoes, food pretty much sums up her motivation for all the work that goes into preparing and maintaining a garden.

Dirt: There’s just something about dirt and kids, perhaps adults, too. I’m pretty sure there are scientific studies that show that digging in the dirt helps boost the immune system and improve mood. You can research that with your kids, too. It’ll be today’s science lesson.

Fresh air and exercise: I don’t know about your kids, but mine are always happier when they’ve had a good dose of fresh air and exercise.

Shoveling loads of mulch or compost counts as exercise, right?

Conversation: Our middle child keeps up constant chatter while we work in the garden. Sometimes the conversation is light, like what he’s planning to build next in Minecraft, and other times it’s surprisingly

A few tips for getting started

AMBER KIFFNEY

deep, like what he thinks the longterm impact of the current epidemic might be.

Silent companionship: Our oldest is 11 1/2 and is often found with his headphones on listening to an audiobook. I found this challenging at first when we worked in the garden together but have learned to just enjoy his presence.

New skills: Consider getting a book on small-scale gardening from Amazon or check online tutorials. Or just get some seeds and read the planting instructions on the back.

Planting your own food doesn’t have to mean moving out to a farm.

We live in town on a half-acre lot, so we are fairly limited on space, but we gardened even when we lived in a townhouse with a tiny yard. We have found that raised beds work well for us.

While ours are built from cedar boards that a family member gave us years ago, modern pressure-treated lumber is a great, readily available option and there are lots of tutorials online for building raised beds. You can create a garden from an existing flower bed, or even just sneak a few vegetables into your ornamental areas (lettuce can actually make an attractive- and functional – border or filler). Of course, if you have space, a classic in-ground garden is always an option.

Start small: If it’s your first time planting a garden, don’t plan on acres of plants unless you’re prepared for a pretty major investment of time and energy to keep it all going. Our first garden bed was 2 feet by 8 feet with herbs, a couple tomato plants and the aforementioned cucumbers. You can go even smaller. Many vegetables can even be grown in pots.

Stick to common plants in the beginning: Don’t try to grow anything unusual when you’re just starting out. Try tomatoes, herbs, lettuce, peas, melons (if you have space, they spread) and squashes like yellow squash or zucchini or even pumpkins.

If you have a structure they can grow up or on, cherry tomatoes can be especially fun for kids. I once walked out to our garden to find my kids and a number of buddies from the neighborhood essentially doing a tasting party of the various cherry tomato varieties we were growing that year.

Don’t try to learn how to grow everything at once: Pick two or three things you know your family will eat and start with growing those.

For best results, let your kids help decide what to grow. When our kids were preschoolers, we built them each their own 2-by-2 raised bed in which they could grow anything they wanted as long as it would fit.

Years later, they still clean out their garden beds each spring and decide what to grown in them.

You can start with seeds or plants … or both: There are advantages to each option. A combination works best for us. We have found carrots, lettuce, radishes, peas, cucumbers and melons are easy to start from seeds (according to the timing on the seed pack). We typically buy tomato, pepper, basil and other herbs around the beginning of May as seedlings (young plants).

Planting a seed

Amber Kiffney recently started a Facebook group called “Virginia’s MOST Amateur Garden Club” geared toward amateur gardeners in the Northern Virginia area:

“Our group exists for beginning gardeners to discuss what we’re planting and when, to ask each other questions and share our experiences, trials and errors. This is a judgment-free zone and the discussion should be kept strictly to gardening, please and thank you!”

AMBER KIFFNEY

If you can get it, bagged cow compost is my secret weapon for a successful garden. You mix it into the soil before planting (the back of the bag tells you how much to use). Don’t worry, the smell dissipates quickly!

As your bounty starts to come in, you can share any excess with friends or neighbors, freeze, can, dry or otherwise preserve your bounty.

Tomatoes are a fairly straightforward first canning project – just be sure to find and follow directions from an expert.

Making pickles is surprisingly easy and fun. There is lots of information online and at the library for how best to freeze or otherwise preserve your bounty.

As I said, I’m far from an expert in gardening - if I can do it, anyone can. Just don’t be afraid to try and have some fun digging in the dirt.

Amber Kiffney is a mother of three. She and her family live in Warrenton.

Stonewall’s Sledge hammers away in baseball workouts “This year I wanted to take us places.”

By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer

Like most The Prince high school athWilliam Times letes planning to play sports looks at athletes in college, Eric whose seasons were ended by Sledge is still the coronavirus. finding ways This week: to work on his craft, even with Stonewall Jackson High baseball spring sports player Eric Sledge. canceled.

The Stonewall Jackson High baseball player wakes up around 7 a.m., much like he did when school was in session, and heads over to a recreational field in Manassas used by the Greater Manassas Baseball League (GMBL).

There the senior does speed and agility drills, and he and several teammates fling the ball around. Police officers sometimes swing by to make sure they have fewer than 10 people. The players bring their own equipment since much of it is locked up at school.

“I’m getting out there hitting with friends. We have about eight or nine on a turf football field. I do some baseball work and things related to fitness.

We’ll hit on the field and throw, do infield drills, outfield stuff, sometimes with pitching,” he said. “We’re trying to keep our bodies in shape.”

Sledge says he has a healthy fear of COVID-19. “My dad bought me a glove to pump gas, and I put my nose under my shirt or hoodie (around people),” said Sledge. He’s doing plenty of hand washing and makes sure he’s not around more than 10 people. “A lot of people my age think it would not be that bad, but you’ve got to take some precautions,” he said.

A 5-foot-11 outfielder and team captain, Sledge (“like the hammer,” he says) wants an athletic scholarship,

ERIC SLEDGE

Stonewall Jackson senior Eric Sledge is still training at a local field. “I’ve been working out, staying healthy and completing scholarship forms.” but these coronavirus-shattered times have created issues in recruitment.

Sledge has an offer to be a walkon at NCAA Division I Saint Peter’s University in Jersey City, N.J. While a guaranteed roster spot is flattering, it’s not the athletic scholarship Sledge seeks. If he had gone to Saint Peter’s, which plays in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC), he’d only get academic aid.

He wants to go to college for his baseball skills, so he declined. “I’m still open. I said, ‘Thank you for the offer, but I’m still looking.’ I don’t want to go to school and have to take out loans,” said Sledge.

This is a tricky time to be a recruited athlete. Due to the cancellation of NCAA spring sports, college seniors playing spring sports will likely be granted an extra year of eligibility, which throws some ros-

ter spots up in the air for high school athletes moving on to college.

“Some money might be taken away from us,” Sledge said. “It’s messed up a little bit. Junior colleges, with all this going on, might be the best route.”

Sledge hit .330 as a junior and was

a Cedar Run District second team selection and team MVP. He had high hopes for his senior campaign, which was wiped out after about three weeks of practice. “This year I expected to hit .400. I’ve been working hard. I’m 195 pounds; I was 180 last year. On a bad team, I stood out. This year I wanted to take us places,” said Sledge.

A strong student who carried a 3.97 GPA and is a member of the Prince William Student Senate, Sledge is using some of his free time writing college essays for academic scholarships. He’s also been seen by scouts for his play on the Canes travel program, which has a strong track record of getting high school players into college programs.

He’s been in touch with colleges on his own. “In this day and age, you have to advocate for yourself,” said Sledge.

The Virginia High School League has left the door open for play in June or July. Stonewall improved under coach John Miller last year, going from two wins to six. Sledge said 10 wins was the target this year.

“We’re a football school. Baseball is trying to grow,” said Sledge.

VHSL says spring sports might be played in summer

By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer

So, you’re saying there’s a chance?

The Virginia High School League has left the door open for sports activity in July after the conclusion of the current academic year. A decision to play in the summer will be made in May. “Any options for the spring sports season will require that COVID-19 is no longer a threat and poses no health risks to our student-athletes or the public,” said VHSL Executive Director Dr. John W. “Billy” Haun. “This is extremely serious, and a lot has to happen before May for us to extend the season.”

For sports to occur in July, which is considered a dead period, the VHSL Executive Committee would

need to take action and provide a one-time waiver to allow teams to practice and play. Any athlete signing a professional contract will not be eligible. Baseball has its draft and signing in the second week of June.

Another concern is health insurance, with parents required to provide proof that their student athlete is insured through either the school or a family policy. Students entering college and taking summer classes not part of any dual enrollment situation are technically no longer in high school and would be ineligible to play.

New physicals will also be required.

Even if there is an option approved for summer play, there will be no state champions recognized for spring sports.

Sophia Mae (Ruzzo) Konoza Sophia Mae (Ruzzo) Konoza, originally from Chester, PA, living most of her life in northern Virginia, and finally in Warrenton, died suddenly on March 24, 2020 at the age of 98, just a little over a month shy of her 99th birthday.

Prior to her birth, Sophia was predeceased by her older brother, Nicholas, and her older sister, Josephine, who died very young. Sophia survived both her parents, all her remaining siblings, and her ex-husband. She is predeceased by her father, Francesco “Frank” Ruzzo, her mother, Sophia (nee Eisenhardt) Ruzzo, her brother Francis “Frank” Ruzzo, her brother, Paul Ruzzo, and her brother Fred “Freddy” Ruzzo. Her family called her “Sis.” She is survived by her children Geraldine Mae Zeithammel (Tony) of Bowling Green, KY, Patricia Ann Cornnell (Joseph) of Bristow, VA, Barbara Ann Morris (David) of Port Republic, VA, Mimi Michaela Konoza (Doris) of Alexandria, VA, and John Charles Konoza (Cathy) of Zion Crossroads, VA, 12 grandchildren, 9 great-grandchildren, and 2 greatgreat grandchildren.

Sophia was born in Chester, PA on May 1, 1921. She was raised listening to Italian opera and was fond of the rose bushes and grape vines in their family yard. She survived the Great Depression, working in a tube mill, creating packaging for health and beauty aids, such as toothpaste, to help support her family.

Sophia enlisted during World War II in the Women’s Army Corps (WAC), serving from 1944 to 1948, achieving the rank of Tech Sergeant. In the Army she ran the mess hall, where she met her future husband, John Stanley Konoza, who was also in the Army. They resided in Chester, PA, Bad Tolz, Germany, Fort Bragg, NC, Springfield, VA, and Bangkok, Thailand. They returned to Springfield towards the end of the Vietnam War, where their five children were raised.

Sophia was a devoted wife, mother and avid bowler. She served her community as a Cub Scouts den mother. She enjoyed dancing to big band swing music, like Glen Miller and Benny Goodman, Latin music like Xavier Cugat, and Bossa Nova. She also favored Italian American crooners, like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. She loved Clark Gable. She was a tough cookie in the kitchen, and will be lovingly remembered by family, friends, and all who knew her.
