In lawsuit limbo, Digital Gateway landowners face high tax bills They expected to make millions but must pay while they wait By Peter Cary

House assessed at $100: Million-dollar homes in the Dominique Estates subdivision are now assessed at $100 because they are part of the Digital Gateway data center corridor. The new assessments have sparked controversy among landowners and critics alike.

It seemed like a great deal when residents of rural northwest Prince William County signed contracts in 2021 to sell their properties for a new data center alley known as the “Prince William Digital Gateway.” With contracts to sell for up to $900,000 an acre, they expected to split their real estate tax bills with their data center buyers upon sale and walk away with big profits.

Now, however, that sweet dream has turned into a nightmare — at least, a tax nightmare. The supervisors rezoned the land for data centers, but two lawsuits have blocked the land sales, leaving landowners in limbo. Meanwhile, the land is now considered much more valuable and, therefore, their taxes due have spiked dramatically. The result has been anger, frustration and finger-pointing, with a solid dose of schadenfreude thrown in from their anti-Digital Gateway neighbors. But it could have been worse.

Local wineries look to broaden appeal New strategies seek niches, focus on fun as sales decline By Dayna Smith

Contributing Writer

Chris Pearmund owns three wineries and has been in the business in Northern Virginia for more than 30 years. The big change he’s seen over the last decade isn’t a good one. Put simply, fewer people are drinking wine, which means it’s harder to make a winery profitable. “In the last 10 years, we were doing $80 to $90 per transaction, and now, we are doing $30 to $40,” he said. “For 20 years, we went up in gross revenue, and I think I am doing better than most.” It’s a national trend. Americans in their 20s and 30s are a tough market for wine sellers. Those under age 50 are drinking across categories — beer, hard ciders, seltzers – but definitely less wine. Only among those 65 and older has wine consumption risen. And that is posing an existential question for Virginia’s wine industry — how to appeal to millennials, and those younger, in a significantly changing market. See WINERIES, page 18

Supervisors back big data center tax hike

Plan would drop real estate tax rate, keeping homeowners’ bills nearly flat By Jill Palermo Managing Editor

Data centers in Prince William County would get hit with higher tax bills this year, while homeowners will see an average tax bill increase of just $26 if county supervisors approve their budget plan next week. On Tuesday, the supervisors moved to advance a 70% increase in the tax rate that data centers pay on their computer equipment while cutting the real estate tax rate to 92 cents per $100 in assessed value. The latter cuts the tax bill increase on a home valued at about $500,000 to $26 from the initially proposed $243, according to Nikki Brown, a Prince William County spokeswoman. Seven board members signaled they would vote next week to raise what is known as the “computer and peripheral tax rate” to $3.70, up from the current rate of $2.15 per $100 in assessed value. The move would add $54.7 million to the county’s coffers, which includes an extra $19. 1 million for Prince William County schools. Only Supervisor Victor Angry, D-Neabsco, said he was against the move.

Vega is flanked by Supervisor Margaret Franklin, left, and Board Chair Deshundra Jefferson, right. “Right now, some of the richest companies in human history are receiving a tax break in this county,” said Supervisor Kenny Boddye, D-Occoquan. “We no longer need sweetheart deals to attract this industry. They are here; they are maturing; they’re going to be here to stay.” All board members said they were in favor of shaving 4 cents off the pro-

posed residential real estate tax rate. Several supervisors noted that data centers would benefit from the reduced real estate tax rate, just as all Prince William County property owners would. But others said it was time to directly give homeowners a break. “This is the only way I can see offering our residents a real tax cut — not just a slower rate of growth,” said Brentsville Supervisor Tom Gordy (R). The plan would use about $21.1 million of the $54.7 million in new tax revenue to offset the cost of cutting the real estate tax rate. Prince William County Schools would receive a 57.23% cut of the money under the county’s long-standing revenue-sharing agreement. In total, schools would receive an extra $23.6 million over and above the school board’s approved budget. The amount includes $19. 1 million from the data center tax hike and an additional $4.5 million due to the county initially underestimating expected tax revenue. School Board Chairman Babur Lateef said he is not yet sure how the school board would spend the extra money and that they’d likely wait

until the state budget is final before making any decisions. The board’s single largest new proposed expenditure — $9.2 million — was redirected to the Potomac and Rappahannock Transportation Commission, which runs the local and commuter bus system. The plan would provide extra money to help the bus system deal with a budget shortfall driven in part by declining fuel tax revenue. Still, the system will be left to deal with a $3.9 million funding gap. The budget plan would address a long list of other items, including boosting the county’s contribution to retiree health benefits, adding eight more positions to the Commonwealth’s Attorney’s staff and dedicating about 1.2 million to park maintenance projects. The plan would also dedicate an extra $3 million in each of the next two years to a new affordable housing trust fund, bringing the fund to $25 million over the next five years, among other changes. The supervisors will take a final vote on the budget on Tuesday, April 23. Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com

Primary ballots set in local congressional races 13 vie to replace Spanberger in 7th District

12 Democrats, 4 Republicans compete in 10th District

By Cher Muzyk

In Virginia’s 7th Congressional District, the fields are set, with seven Democrats and six Republicans vying for their party’s nomination in the June 18 primaries. While 15 candidates initially announced their intent to succeed U.S. Rep. Abigail Spanberger next year, only 13 qualified for the ballot. Early voting is set to begin on May 3. Spanberger, 44, announced last fall that she would give up her congressional seat to run for governor. The race in the 7th District is widely thought to be the tightest in the commonwealth, with Republicans hoping to regain the seat. The 7th District includes the eastern half of Prince William County, which accounts for nearly a third of the district’s voters, as well as Stafford, Spotsylvania, Culpeper, Orange, Caroline, King George, Greene and Madison counties. The district also includes a tiny portion of Albemarle County and Fredericksburg.

Twelve Democrats and four Republicans recently qualified for the ballot to run for the 10th District congressional seat. All are vying to replace retiring U.S. Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D), who has held the seat since 2019 but announced in September she would not seek re-election because she is battling Parkinson’s disease. The 10th District includes all of Fauquier, Loudoun and Rappahannock counties, the cities of Manassas and Manassas Park and parts Fairfax and Prince William counties.

In lawsuit limbo, Digital Gateway landowners face high tax bills LAWSUIT, from page 1 data center lawyers, Prince William County officials cut the tax assessments by more than two-thirds to reflect the development’s uncertainty — a change that means millions in lost tax revenue for county coffers. And then last week, Compass Datacenters, one of the two companies involved in the deal, offered to pay the real estate tax bills of any contract-holders who ask. Ninety-two Digital Gateway property owners with a total of 885 acres are under contract to sell their homes and land to Compass. “I’m very grateful for this,” said Dori Burner, whose home and property on Pageland Lane is under contract to sell to Compass. “You know, there’s a lot of retired folks on my street, and a lot of people living on fixed incomes. So, this is the correct thing to do.” She called the offer generous. But others noted that if the owners defaulted on their tax payments, the county could eventually place the properties under tax liens, complicating matters even further. Whether QTS Data Centers, which has the remaining 33 parcels under contract, totaling about 876 acres will follow suit by paying homeowners’ tax bills is not known. One person in the QTS zone said Mary Ann Ghadban, a real estate developer and Digital Gateway land-

owner who helped broker the deal, is encouraging her neighbors to appeal their assessments to county officials. But if those appeals fail, the landowners could wind up holding the bag for tax bills collectively amounting to millions. Neither Ghadban nor QTS lawyer Antonio Calabrese responded to requests for comment. John Brower, who is under contract to sell to QTS, saw the assessment on his 131 acres on Pageland Lane jump 15 times, from $3.2 million to $50.1 million, leaving him with a tax bill of about $485,000. “It really doesn’t matter because I can’t pay it anyway,” Brower said. Brower said he plans to appeal his assessment to the county finance office, which he blames for his predicament. Brower said the lawsuits against the county are stopping his sale from going through, yet the county has chosen to tax the landowners anyway. “So, you’ve got the right hand of the county wanting this money, and the left hand is being sued,” he said. “Don’t you think they’d get together and say, ‘Wait a minute, let’s work this out?’”

A tangled tale of taxes

On Dec. 14, after a contentious all-night meeting, the Prince William Board of County Supervisors rezoned all 1,761 acres in the Digital Gateway corridor for data centers, to the delight of more than 100 landowners who had signed contracts to

What to know about the proposed ‘Prince William Sports and Events Center’ By Cher Muzyk

for its construction and buy the furniture, fixtures and equipment that go in it. The county’s proposed fiscal year 2025 budget includes $16 million to buy the land. The estimated $141 million to construct and outfit the building will be financed through bonds repaid over 20 years at an annual cost of about $10 million, officials said.

Staff Writer

Prince William County officials held two community meetings last week about the proposed “Prince William Sports and Events Center,” which is being considered for north Woodbridge. The county supervisors will be making a decision in mid-May about whether to move forward with the $141 million facility. Here’s what to know now:

COURTESY PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY

A rendering of the $141 million, 240,000-squarefoot indoor track facility being considered by the Prince William Board of County Supervisors.

What is it?

The facility would host large indoor competitions in track, basketball, volleyball, pickleball, cheer and wrestling that could accommodate more than 5,000 spectators. The facility could also be used for graduations, trade shows and corporate and community events. The plan is for the facility to include eight basketball courts that could be converted into 16 volleyball courts and 24 pickleball courts. It would also feature a 200-meter, hydraulic “banked” indoor track. There will also be multi-purpose rooms, a lounge, a kitchen, a dining area, bathrooms and locker rooms.

The facility won’t sell individual memberships, but residents can join leagues — or create one of their own — and then rent a court and come and play, officials said. Local high school sports teams are expected to use the facility on weekday afternoons and evenings.

How will the county pay for it?

The plan is for the county to own the facility. That means the county would buy the land, pay

Glenn Youngkin. • Manga Anantatmula, 61, was the GOP nominee in the 11th District congressional race in 2020. She lost to Rep. Gerry Connolly (D) Born in India, Anantatmula

Will it make money?

The facility is estimated to have an annual economic impact of $50 million a year — mainly through spending on hotels and restaurants — and to create more than 900 new jobs. According to county estimates, the center could generate a profit of $400,000 a year after the first three years. The county would also be on the hook for any losses if the facility does not generate enough revenue to cover its expenses.

What’s next?

The supervisors will decide on Tuesday, May 14 whether to go through with buying the land. Then, they must decide how to proceed with the sports and event center. There is no hard deadline for that decision, officials said. Reach Cher Muzyk at cmuzyk@fauquier.com

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Push for better decisions on data centers, not faster ones Gainesville Supervisor Bob Weir has issued a notice of intent to consider eliminating the county’s data center opportunity zone overlay district. The Board of County Supervisors is expected to revisit the issue on May 14. This initiative is a reflection of the oversaturation of data centers in Prince William County and the hasty judgment and routine waivers that led to the affliction. If the purpose of the overlay district was to attract development, it has accomplished it. If its purpose was to control development, it has failed. There were 17 data center reform bills introduced in the Virginia General Assembly in

January, and legislators tasked the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission to study the effects of data center development. Pending data center applications should take a back seat to both of these essential deliberations. A March 28 Prince William Times article reported on a forthcoming application for the Mid-County Industrial Park, which is requesting an “expedited review” for a Planning Commission public hearing on April 24. Why are we speeding up just when prudence dictates slowing down? Because developers want their applications accelerated, fearing awakening

public resistance. Responsible officials should take exactly the opposite approach and delay such applications until we get a better handle on the cumulative effect of all that has already been injudiciously approved. Prince William County needs to apply some appetite suppression and stop leaning into the same punch that has already bloodied it. Tell your supervisors you want smarter decisions rather than faster ones. BILL WRIGHT Gainesville

VOICE asks the county for dedicated funding for the Housing Trust Fund Prince William County has a housing crisis, and affordable housing has been pushed to the sidelines for far too long. It’s time the Board of County Supervisors prioritizes housing that is affordable in Prince William County. For those making less than $73,000, 60% of the area median income, finding housing is a challenge if not impossible. The result is a large percentage of our first responders, nurses and education professionals are not able to live in the very county they serve. For those working in construction, retail, home health support and other service industries, the task of locating housing is even more daunting.

We are asking the Prince William County of County Supervisors to allocate $5 million to the Housing Trust Fund in the fiscal year 2025 budget, with a focus on rental housing. We are also asking for continued funding of the housing trust fund. Funds like it have been used nationally and by our neighboring counties to subsidize the construction of new, deeply affordable housing developments and to help preserve existing affordable communities. The types of units and developments being funded by a housing trust fund are not being met by the market due to the considerable economic loss of charging up to $1,000

less per unit, making the trust funds and their low-interest loans crucial in bridging this housing gap and addressing the affordability crisis effectively. To effectively utilize the housing trust fund, our ask is that Prince William County formally commit in writing to establish a dedicated source of revenue for the trust fund. This revenue can come from one or a combination of the following sources: data center taxes, meals taxes and/or real estate taxes. High housing costs are ultimately a social and economic problem that affects our community in many ways, from families being separated to the workforce moving to cheap-

We’re lucky to have the Prince William Times as a source of local news I canceled my subscription today, not because of any unhappiness with your newspaper, but because I’m moving to Southwest Virginia. Rather, I want to say today something I’ve said many times to my wife about the Times and that I should have said directly to you folks before. Specifically, the journalism at the Times is excellent, and Prince William County residents are fortunate to

have the Times as an objective, balanced and evenhanded source of local news. Your coverage of local elections and the data center issue, in particular, has been outstanding. Congratulations on your fine work. Please keep it up. Work like you do is sorely needed in today’s media environment. Many thanks.

PIEDMONT HOME CONNECTION

Selling your home? Here’s how to get the most from your investment Jessica Saadeh Long & Foster

If you are planning to sell your home in the next two years, it’s important to set a budget for any updates that you may be considering. There is only so much return to be had on your investment, and some projects might not be worth doing. It’s easy to get carried away when you’re trying to make your home look its best for potential buyers. After all, you want to receive the highest sales price possible. If you watch one of those HGTV shows, when a home is being flipped, they focus on all of the trendy updates like kitchen and bath remodels. Those are fun and dramatic to see on television, but they can also be costly and not to all buyers’ tastes. The very best updates for return on investment are not always as visually exciting.

Update home systems

Buyers today don’t want to deal with extra costs right after they move in. Many are using most of their available funds for the downpayment and closing costs of the transaction. Buying a new water heater or replacing fogged-out windows may not be Instagram-worthy projects, but they can add a lot of value to a property listing. A home that has a 23-year-old roof and a 12-year-old HVAC system will not be appealing to financially

savvy buyers, even if it has a luxury primary bathroom and premium quartz countertops in the kitchen.

Boost curb appeal

Simple updates that focus on curb appeal have some of the biggest returns on investment. Projects like garage door, siding and front door replacements all have a relatively low cost compared to value. Light landscaping, such as removal or trimming of large bushes, fresh mulch and inexpensive perennial plantings can make a significant positive impact on curb appeal, especially for photographs. Most buyers today do their home searches online, often scrolling through a list with thumbnail pictures. You want the primary photo, which should be the front of the home, to be as visually appealing as possible. If the home looks run down or unkempt, buyers may not even click on the listing, much less request to see or make an offer on the property.

Keep interiors neutral

Inside the home, buyers like to see neutral, clean, functional spaces. Painting cabinets and adding fresh drawer and cabinet pulls are much more cost-effective than replacing them. Painting the walls throughout the house in a neutral color is always a good idea. Depending on your budget and the age and type of flooring in the home, you

STOCK PHOTO

Keep interior paint colors and even bedding neutral to help potential buyers visualize moving into your home. may want to consider replacing it with new carpet or vinyl plank, again, keeping with neutral tones. The idea is to create a clean palate for buyers to imagine changing to their taste over time.

Clean everything

Good old fashioned elbow grease can make a huge impact on showings. Deep clean the kitchen and bathrooms. Dust the ceiling fans and anywhere else that needs it. Clean the baseboards and wipe off any marks on the walls. Clear counters and minimize clutter as much as possible. You could even replace brightly colored bedding, pillows, towels and shower curtains with more neutral tones. Again, when selling your home, you want potential buyers to feel like they can move in without having to do a bunch of work right away. They will feel more comfortable

paying top dollar for a home that is well-maintained and functional. When selling your home, it’s important to put your best foot forward if you want to get the highest possible sales price. Today’s buyers want the best home they can get for their money. If you put yourself in their shoes and do a few simple, thoughtful updates, you will help them see the value in your home without breaking the bank.

Fine wine pioneer’s crazy dream came true Fauquier County winemaker Jim Law showed the way to fine wine over 40 years ago By Mark Gerchick Contributing Writer

When Jim Law planted his first grapevines on a rocky abandoned apple orchard at Fauquier County’s western edge four decades ago, there were fewer than a dozen wineries in all of Virginia. Today, his celebrated Linden Vineyards near Markham is one of nearly two dozen in Fauquier County alone — out of some 300 wineries statewide. With more than a quarter of Virginia’s 4,000-plus wine-bearing acres, Fauquier and Loudoun counties together center an industry whose direct economic impact approached $3 billion in 2022, according to a wine industry report. A surge of regional “winery tourism” underlies much of that explosive growth, but so, too, does the burgeoning reputation of Virgina wine — thanks to the work of industry pioneers like Law. The market attests to their success. Numerous Fauquier County-made wines retail near $50 a bottle — and a few fetch close to $100. Linden’s own signature Hardscrabble Chardonnay and Cabernet blends grace top restaurant lists and high-end shops throughout the Washington region. But that success hasn’t come easy. “Everyone told me I was crazy then to pay more than a thousand dollars an acre,” Law, 68, said about the reaction when he bought his 76acre site four decades ago. By and large, Virginia wine at the time was barely “serviceable,” in industry jargon. Wannabe winemakers used “the old bucket and funnel method,” Law said, often choosing their vineyard sites at random, or because of their proximity to well-traveled highways. That’s all changed over the last 10 to 15 years. Winemakers have become more proficient, better appreciating “the importance of site and soil to the quality of wine,” said Law. They also learned to adapt to Virginia’s unique climate challenges — the same that stymied Thomas Jefferson’s efforts to grow European-style grapes at Monticello 200 years ago. Throughout, Law has been both mentor and measuring rod for the evolving industry, though he laughs off his informal title of “godfather” of Virginia wine. He’s taught viniculture at area colleges and authors a regular newsletter. His “Hardscrabble Journal” is a must-read for fellow vintners and wine aficionados, expounding on everything from grapevine pruning techniques to climate change to bottling methods to natural philosophy. He also makes time to advise and

work with both aspiring and established area “winegrowers,” a term he prefers to “winemakers.” At heart, though, Law thinks of himself mainly as a farmer. “My goal was to make a living farming,” he said. “That’s really my greatest achievement.” Law learned the wine trade from the bottom up, working winery jobs from “cellar rat,” washing barrels, to field work to blending wine after he returned from a stint teaching farming techniques in the Peace Corps in Africa. Besides making fine wine, though, Law hopes establishments like his will help interested customers “reconnect” to the natural world, engaging with environmental issues like climate change. Farming grapes in Virginia has never been easy. Early Jamestown settlers were subject to the first agricultural law, “Acte 12,” that required each male colonist to plant 20 imported European grapevines. When that failed, they turned to tobacco farming. “Here it’s all about the weather — humidity, rain and heat,” Law said. Winemaking, as Law sees it, is a specialized kind of farming, an “agricultural art” aimed at capturing in the product what the French call the “terroir” — all the environmental factors, from climate and microclimate to elevation and soil, that combine to form a wine’s character. It means selecting and adapting grape varieties that can thrive on Fauquier’s elevated ridges and “understanding the personality of the (growing) site,” he said. It means deciding when to pick, what to blend and how long to age before bottling, and it requires discipline, experience and intuition. Law tries to keep it simple, though, avoiding undue “intervention” in the grape-to-wine process, such as adding substances like Tartaric acid or sugar. Like other small-scale farming, winegrowing takes long hours — especially during active vine growth from May to July and during the September to October harvest, or “crush.” It also requires tenacity and experimentation, working methodically with new grape varieties, said Law. A traditionalist vintner, Law has reluctantly made his peace with the fast-growing “wine tourism” side of the industry, where the tasting “experience” in a beautiful rural setting can take precedence over the quality or sophistication of the wine served. Most Virginia wineries fit that bill, Law said. While he draws the line at hosting large group outings and limousine wine tours, Linden now offers by-reservation wine-tastings for a fee. Even so, “farmers are not hospitality experts,” he said, on the way out to check his vines. After 40 years, Law is optimistic about the future of Virginia wine, but

patient. Vineyards take years to bear usable fruit; new wines take a decade of experimentation to perfect, and weather is always unpredictable. And the relatively small scale of Virginia vineyards — Linden’s 4,000-case annual production pales in comparison to the 10 million cases produced by the largest individual California vintners — makes Virginia wine harder to find, relatively

expensive and less likely to attract the attention of national wine media. Still, he said, the Washington, D.C., region is “a wonderful market” for fine wine, full of “educated world travelers who appreciate it.” Then he said, philosophically, “They didn’t take California wines seriously either until the mid-’70s.” Reach Mark Gerchick at news@ fauquier.com.

Local wineries look to broaden appeal WINERIES, from page 1 As wineries scramble to find their footing, they are inventing and re-inventing their businesses. For the wine operators, that’s a hard thing, and not all approaches will succeed. But the good news for those who love the nectar of the grape is that there are now a huge variety of wine-drinking experiences to be had. “What’s going to keep this place in business is the question,” Pearmund said, gesturing toward his chambourcin vines from the porch of his stately Effingham Manor in Nokesville. Ideas for how to attract more visitors bring tradeoffs to balance, he said. “If we have more people and more experiences, we are going to put a lot of wear and tear on this 250-year-old facility,” he said. “That’s why we don’t have kids and dogs. But that limits our market.” It’s not just changing tastes that has made selling wine tougher. The COVID pandemic had an effect all its own. Before the pandemic, people would belly up to the bar at wineries and have inexpensive flights of guided tastings in glasses. Maybe they would even take an embossed glass home, said Annette Boyd, marketing director for the Virginia Wine Board. But that was wiped out by pandemic restrictions. Wine was sold out the door. When flights returned, they were served in plastic cups and taken outdoors. Entertainment was brought in — music, games, amusements, family activities. People began coming for the destination, not expressly for the wine, she said. There was still a segment of serious wine drinkers who eschewed the party atmosphere and came expressly for the experience of tasting. The wineries that catered to them were adult only, dog and child free and did not offer large group experiences. But wineries cannot turn a profit on

tastings alone. They must either sell more bottles — they prefer to do this through wine club memberships — or elevate the wine tasting experience, at a significantly higher price. That elevated tasting experience is working nicely at newly opened Crimson Lane in Linden, with its expansive, oak-paneled Napa-esque tasting room that offers gorgeous views, cozy seating arrangements and table service led by knowledgeable “tasting associates.” The cost of a tasting is between $45 to $95 per person, depending on where you sit, and it can last 90 minutes or more. It is a directed learning experience in a luxurious environment. Capstone Vineyards, located next door, is the antithesis to Crimson Lane in scale, approach and pricing. Here, authenticity is the drawing card. Theo Smith, the winemaker, grabs a bottle from the refrigerator and pours the wine himself in the cabin’s tiny tasting room — 20 people would be a tight fit. A tasting of six wines runs $25. Smith said he has a robust wine club membership. A few miles away down a country lane, Jim Law at Linden Vineyards has seen a drop off in visitors. “At first we were worried,” he said. “But we’ve found that’s a good thing because the people that want to party … they go elsewhere. The people that are really interested in the story, that are hungry for knowledge, they come here.” Linden is currently offering a tasting of six wines from the same vineyard but harvested in different years. One can (theoretically) smell and taste the effect of weather and climate on the wines. They also offer incentives to those joining their wine club. Back in Nokesville, Pearmund says he has seen it all. “We saw, what I call weddings, tractor pulls, cat juggling, balloon rides, live music, inexpensive tastings — all the ancillary activities that are not directly related to wine bottle sales,” he said. “But

Samantha Marie Johnson and Kiona Owens on a “day date” at Crimson Lane Vineyards in Linden, Virginia on Jan. 27 like when you go to a restaurant, you eat, drink, you flush toilets, you pay your bill and walk away, and you walk away empty handed. We cannot afford for people to walk away empty handed.” So how will he find his niche? Ever the entrepreneur, Pearmund, who also owns Vint Hill Winery and Pearmund Cellars in Broad Run, is looking beyond traditional grape-fermented bottled wines to wines on draft and infused wines. “Infusions are nothing new,” he said. “They are in beer for sure, and we’re going to see them in wine. And that’s going to be the next big hit.” Virginia wineries are evolving into something for everyone, according to wine blogger, Shannon Ayres. “If you are a wine snob and you want a curated experience there are those wineries, like Linden and RdV,” he said. “But if you don’t care about flavor and want a place to relax on a weekend, take your dog, your kids, throw a frisbee, have a party, there is that kind of winery, too. And that is a good thing.”

‘Mahana Fresh’ restaurant to opens at Virginia Gateway Fast-casual eatery features bowls, gluten-free items Staff Reports Mahana means “like the sun,” according to Mahana Fresh, a new restaurant opening this week in the Virginia Gateway shopping center. The restaurant strives to capture that energetic vibe as it serves up healthy and gluten-free meals. Mahana Fresh opened its doors to customers for the first time on Tuesday, April 16, at 11 a.m. Grand opening festivities are planned for this weekend, according to a news release. The Gainesville restaurant is the first Mahana Fresh to open in Virginia. The “fast-casual” eatery is a project of Kyle Kuzma, a Washington Wizards star and entrepreneur who formed a partnership with the Florida-based restaurant group Mahana Fresh. As an investor, Kuzma plans to open up to 50 restaurants across the country; a second opening is planned in Houston, Texas, in June, according to the release. The Gainesville restaurant, locat-

Mahana Fresh’s gluten-free menu features a “build-your-own-bowl” model that allows customers to select a base of rice (either basmati blend, coconut or cauliflower), noodles or greens with veggie and pro-

tein options to top it off. Gluten-free wraps are available, as are all-gluten-free cookies and brownies. “There are no microwaves, freezers or fryers with all items prepared fresh in the restaurant’s kitchen,” the release said. Mahana Fresh was founded in 2019 by Dave Wood, who had owned

20 Domino’s restaurants in Northern Virginia. Mahana Fresh now has locations in Florida, Georgia, Idaho, North Dakota, New Jersey and North Carolina. Mahana Fresh was created out of Wood’s desire to find “a heathy fast meal option after playing a game of basketball,” the release said. Kuzma is known for his business success and his dedication to philanthropic causes, including the Kyle Kuzma Family Foundation, which focuses on helping single mothers, the release said. Mahana Fresh is open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week. The restaurant will hold a grand opening event from Saturday, April 20 through Friday, April 26. On Saturday, the first 33 people in line will receive a free bowl, while everyone else will receive an offer for a $5 “Mahana-sized bowl.” Five people will win free Mahana-sized bowls for one year (one per month for 12 months). Daily specials will be offered from Sunday, April 21, through Friday, April 26. For more information, go to https://mailchi.mp/mahanafresh/i9u2ts15gh

Colgan’s run of dominance resumes

PHOTOS BY DOUG STROUD

Despite returning only three starters from last season’s historic state championship lineup, Emme Rivera and the Coglan Sharks are 9-0 and rolling.

A year after winning Class 6 girls soccer crown, Sharks open 9-0 By Matthew Proctor Staff Writer

It takes talent, discipline, cohesion and timely play to win a state championship. The Colgan High girls soccer team checked all of those boxes in defeating Battlefield 1-0 to win their first Class 6 state title last June. In finishing 21-1-1 with a 120-3 goal differential, the Sharks left a legacy. It’s a tall task to follow. The Sharks lost a staggering eight starters, including Class 6 Player of the Year Samantha DeGuzman, yet the wins keep flowing for coach Tom Warzywak’s program, which is 9-0 and features several NCAA Division I-bound players. In defeating visiting Hylton 4-0 on Monday for their 24th consecutive victory, Colgan improved to 6-0 in the Cardinal District and owns a two-game lead over Forest Park, Freedom-Woodbridge and Woodbridge, all 4-2. “When you lose eight starters from last year’s team that won a state championship, you just never know. And the girls that were behind them and the new ones that came in, they want to show that they are just as good as that team last year,” said Warzywak.

Above left, junior Chloe Nelson (No. 3) has scored three goals and tallied three assists for a potent Colgan attack that is outscoring foes 31-1. Colgan also lost all-state first team defender Kamryn Winger and all-state second team midfielder Anna Simmons and defender Cambria Kendall. “It’s still a work in progress. We play all year to build that cohesion and hope you get to the end of the year and everybody’s healthy and playing well, so that’s what we’re moving toward right now, but couldn’t ask for any better,” the sixth-year coach added. While Colgan returns limited firepower, they do have stalwarts at every level to lean on in junior goalkeeper Chase Rooney, senior

defender Emme Rivera, senior midfielder Cassie Villafan and senior forward Tiana Cruz. Like last season, the Sharks are outscoring opponents 31-1 through their first nine games, but Warzywak believes even more offensive efficiency is coming. “It’s like Colgan’s almost that Aladdin’s cave full of talent, but we just have to find that good balance between playing good defense, absorbing pressure and then creating those quality chances in the attacking third,” the coach said. Against Hylton on Monday, Col-

gan dominated possession and lived on the attacking end but left a few goals on the table as they often struggled to complete the final pass on goal – what Simmons, who led the Sharks with 18 assists, and DeGuzman, who scored a team-high 27 goals, excelled at last season. “Right now, we’re struggling a little bit with teams that we’re dominating, not being able to unlock that final pass to get in, and that’s what Samantha and Anna did so well. They unlocked defenses,” Warzywak said. See SOCCER, page 24

We got to find each other, combine through the middle, find those runs to the corner flags and get around the defense, make those defenders face their own goal.’ So, it’s a different approach for them, but they’re progressing nicely,” he added. Sophomore Emma Braxton leads the Sharks with eight goals. Cruz has six and juniors Arianna Garcia and Chloe Nelson with three. Cruz, who scored the game-winning goal in the 75th minute of the state championship game last season, has missed the last four games with an ankle injury but is expected to return soon. Defensively, the Sharks are anchored by Rooney in goal, Rivera on the wing and junior Bree Bridges in the middle. Bridges is committed to play at Syracuse University while Rooney, a Virginia Tech commit, and Rivera are two of Colgan’s three captains, along with Nelson. Standing at 6-foot-4, Rooney is as intimidating to opposing forwards as she is tough to score on, surrendering just four goals in 30 games since the start of last season. “(Rooney) is an incredible leader back there. As a sophomore I probably could have made her a captain, but she’s really finding her voice this year,” said Warzywak. “What every coach wants is a good defense and then you start to build to that cohesion at the end. They’re just a great group.” The lone goal that Rooney has allowed this season came in the Sharks’ 2-1 victory over Battlefield in the second game of the season on March 13, a rematch of last year’s state final. According to Warzywak, Rooney caught the ball, then set it down to kick it but decided to pick it back up, result-

ing in a foul and a Battlefield indirect free kick. “From the run of play, we’ve given up nothing,” he said. The win over Battlefield, along with their 2-0 win over Patriot in the season opener on March 11, was an important milestone for an overhauled Colgan team with big shoes to fill. “My philosophy is that we bring them in and put them against the best possible teams we can. That’s why (Battlefield coach Kevin Hilton) and I have always done games since I’ve been here,” Warzywak said. “I want to put them in a position where they’re struggling or they have to really fight for it.” Warzywak said close games are character builders, like clashes against Battlefield and in a 2-1 loss to Forest Park last year. “They dominated Forest Park and lost and it was that wake-up call. We try to always put them in the most challenging games possible, and if they fail, it’s okay because by the end of the season we want to have built to something and gotten that rhythm, that cohesion,” Warzwak said. In a league of their own at 9-0, the Sharks are eying another run at the state title. “We know exactly what we want to do. We want to possess, we want to get balls out to the wings, we want to try to pull the defense apart to create more space, more time for the midfielders, our skill players,” Warzywak said. “By the time we get to the end of the season hopefully we’re healthy and we’re hitting all those balls we need to hit.” Colgan still has six regular season games left, ending with a road game at Hylton May 9. The postseason could run another month, with the Class 6 state final June 9 in Henrico County.

Joseph Albert Higgs, Jr.

Larry Marvin Rhoton

On 4 April 2024, Joseph Albert "Joe" Higgs, Jr. of Warrenton, VA passed away at the age of 82 after a lengthy series of medical issues. Joe adored his family. He is survived by his beloved wife of 47 years, Sandy, daughter, Charleen Dardinski, sisters, Julia Alexander and Joette Higgs, brother, Timothy Higgs, in addition to many friends and colleagues. He also leaves behind his grandchildren, Cooper Joseph (CJ) Higgs and Natallie (Allie) Rodriguez, great-grandson, Wolfe Rodriguez, nephew Timothy (TJ) Higgs, and niece, Jennifer Moses. Joe was preceded in death by his son, Kevin Higgs, daughter, Kim Higgs, brother, Michael Higgs, father, Joseph Higgs, Sr., mother, Bernas Higgs, and grandparents, Loretta and Edward Thomas. Joe, born on 4 December 1941 in Washington, D.C., had a fulfilling life and an accomplished professional career. He was an influential man that touched the lives of so many in a special way. After graduating Anacostia High School, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served six years. After his service, he spent 45+ years in law enforcement and public service. He joined the Fairfax County Police Department, where he served twenty years in the motor squad, special investigations, fugitive and narcotics. While at Fairfax, Joe was a founding member and President of the Fairfax County Police Association. Joe was an instructor at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Georgia, Deputy Chief of Police for the Town of Vienna, and worked for the William A. Hazel companies. Joe's passion for law enforcement and public service led him to his most notable role, as an elected Sheriff of Fauquier County where he spent 12 years in office. Joe successfully transitioned the Fauquier County Sheriff's Office from a small-town operation into today's nationally recognized law-enforcement agency. He instituted a School Resource Officer program, implemented the first Law Enforcement Community Network Center in private businesses, and established a volunteer auxiliary program. Joe's leadership, integrity and commitment to the citizens he served was undeniable and unwavering. Joe was incredibly proud to serve the citizens and community of Fauquier County. After leaving Fauquier, he served as Superintendent of the Rappahannock Regional Jail for 12 years before retiring. He was a proud Freemason, belonging to Mt. Carmel, and Haymarket Lodges, Kena Shrine and member of The American Legion. As a Mason, he was the Director of the VA Child ID Program. Joe was also a member of the National Sheriff's Association and a lifetime honorary member of the Fairfax County Police Association. When not serving the community, Joe enjoyed spending time with his family (including pets), listening to country music, dancing, boating and NASCAR. In the spirit of Joe's request of a celebration and a good time, all are invited to celebrate his life in the nature of an Irish wake on Saturday, April 27, 2024 from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at O'Brien's Irish Pub, 380 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton, VA. A social hour will be held from 12:00 noon until 1:00 p.m., at which time a short Christian service will be held. This is a great time to visit with Sandy, Charleen, and Joe's many friends. From 2:00-4:00 p.m., there will be finger foods and short stories shared about Joe. Dress is business casual no ties (at his request). Please come and remember Joe as he wanted to be remembered: full of life, love, and laughter. Interment will take place in Quantico National Cemetery at a later date.
