Service dog swindle
Woodbridge family hoped for a trained dog for their autistic kids. Instead, they lost thousands
After the Lukens family paid $17,000 for a trained service dog they never received, they opted for Autumn, a shepherd that is not a trained service dog but is nonetheless beloved by the family.
By Angela Roberts Special to the Times
When Tina Candella Lukens and Andrew Lukens agreed to trade $17,000 for a service dog for their autistic 2-year-old daughter, they understood it would take at least 18 months for Bella to be ready to join their family. But for a year and a half, it felt like she already had. Candella Lukens printed out photos of the Dutch shepherd puppy and laminated them to show her children. They talked about Bella every night at dinner, and taught their daughter — Juliana — to say the dog’s name. When Candella Lukens revisits those memories now, anger creeps into her voice. “Moms are inherently protective of their kids — dads, too, but I can only speak for the level
that I will go to for anything for my kids,” she said. “So for someone to take advantage of them and hurt them and hurt my family … You can do whatever you want to me, but not to my daughter.” Juliana never got Bella. And the Lukens family has yet to see a dime of the thousands of dollars they handed over to “Argos K9” — a Minnesota-based nonprofit described as a “veteran-run” operation by its now defunct website. Now, a thousand miles away from the Lukens’ home in Woodbridge, the nonprofit’s founders are facing charges of “theft by swindle.” See SERVICE DOG, page 2

Prince William County schools Superintendent Steven Walts has announced he will retire effective July 1, 2021, when his current contract expires. Walts announced his decision Aug. 13, three weeks after the Steven Walts Prince William County School Board heard the results of an outside investigation into allegations that Walts violated the school division’s social media policy by exchanging direct messages with individual students via Twitter. The school board has not released the results of that investigation nor any details regarding its findings. The board also has not indicated Walts violated school division policy. The board met July 22 to discuss the investigation and then on July 29 to conduct Walts’ annual review. The board did not discuss or vote on extending Walts’ existing contract during those meetings, according to School Board Chairman Babur Lateef. See WALTS, page 4
Manassas Park City Council OKs sinkhole fix By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
The failing culvert at the root of a giant sinkhole that temporarily stranded a Manassas Park community was a problem festering for at least a decade and one city staff were working on right up until the ground gave way before dawn on Aug. 12, city officials said during an emergency meeting of the Manassas Park City Council. The council voted unanimously later that night to spend up to $375,000 on a temporary crossing for Moseby Court that is expected to be complete in about three weeks, said Calvin O’Dell, Manassas Park’s director of community development.

SERVICE DOG, from page 1 In an email, the lawyer for Argos K9 co-founder Jacob Bush — who also served as the company’s trainer — declined a request for an interview with his client. The lawyer for co-founder Deborah Fideldy-Bush — who served as CEO for Argos K9 — wrote in an email that her client declined to comment. The two defendants are due for a court appearance Aug. 26. Coming to terms with the alleged deception hasn’t just been about the money for Candella Lukens. Even after she and her husband began to get suspicious of the trainers’ intentions, their 6-year-old son — who is also autistic — never stopped asking about Bella. And sometimes Candella Lukens wonders if Juliana has ever thought: “Where’s my dog?” On a recent sunny afternoon, Juliana cheerfully traced letters at the Lukens’ kitchen table as her mom and dad looked on. Music from a TV show floated up from an iPad in front of her, and her smile revealed that she was missing her two top and bottom teeth. “I can’t believe somebody would do that to a little girl,” Lukens said.
‘They seemed like nice people’
Candella Lukens first got wind of Argos K9 in 2017, shortly after Juliana — then 2 and a half — was diagnosed with autism. One of the guys she worked with tipped her off about the business: He and his wife had gotten their dog from a Michigan breeder who worked with the nonprofit, selling pups that were then trained by the Argos founders to serve people who were autistic or suffering from PTSD. Intrigued, Candella Lukens visited the nonprofit’s website, where she was met with photos of Bush and his wife dressed in uniform. According to the site, Bush had served as a K-9 handler in the Marines for a decade. This only solidified her trust in the couple, Candella Lukens said. “When you’re a veteran or you’re in law enforcement, you’re the one who’s running to danger. You’re the one who puts everybody above your safety, and you go towards the fire — you go towards the explosion,” she said. So, she filled out the application for a service dog on the website and called the couple. Bush told her all about the dogs he had trained in the past, and promised to train a dog for Juliana in search and rescue tactics, Candella Lukens remembered. The man also said he could train a dog to sit when Juliana tried to run away — stopping her in her tracks with 55 pounds of deadweight — and lean against her, acting like a weighted blanket when she got anxious, Candella Lukens said. Having a service dog trained in such a way would have been huge for the Lukens family. It would mean taking trips to Costco without fear of losing Juliana. They might even be able to visit Disney World — a trip that would’ve been the family’s first vacation in four years. After consulting with her husband, Candella Lukens said she and Bush agreed upon a price — which the Lukens family would pay in installments — and set a delivery date: July 2019.
the same time Candella Lukens had started working with Bush. “At that point, I knew that this was not good,” Candella Lukens said.
The last straw PHOTO BY ANGELA ROBERTS
Autumn, the dog the Lukens family bought after being swindled out of a $17,000 service dog they never received. Over the next year and a half, Candella Lukens said she regularly exchanged text messages with Bush, often sending him photos of Juliana. Then, in July 2018, Bush and his wife drove Bella out to the Lukens’ home so she could meet their family. The couple spent all day at their house, and although it took Juliana some time to get used to Bella, by the end of the visit, they were rolling around in the grass with one another. “They seemed like nice people. They were great with Juliana, with the dog, and very personable,” Lukens remembered. “There was nothing when they came that raised a flag.”
Rising suspicions
From there, Candella Lukens continued texting with Bush, she said. The next year, as July neared, she reached out to the trainer, asking to set up a day to drive to Minnesota to pick Bella up. According to court records, Bush replied that he was shooting for Labor Day weekend. But in August, according to the records, he said the dog had experienced some setbacks. The delivery would have to be pushed back by a month. October came and went, though, and according to court records, Bush asked for another extension: this time for Thanksgiving weekend. “Im sorry for the delay im just not willing to let her go til i am happy with her,” he texted Candella Lukens, according to court records. But the next month, he asked to deliver Bella in December instead, according to the records. At this point, Candella Lukens and her husband were starting to get suspicious. They had paid the last of the $17,000 the previous July, according to court records, and Bush’s text messages were getting more and more infrequent, Candella Lukens said. Then, after Googling Bush’s name, Lukens stumbled across a page on a site called “Military Phonies.” The site’s author accused Bush of lying about his military service and posted documents to prove it: the results of Freedom of Information Act requests into the personnel records of the Navy and Defense Department. At the bottom of the page, two commenters accused Bush and his wife of ripping them off. “I kind of thought, ‘Oh man, this isn’t looking good,’” Lukens said. “But, you know, you still kind of held out hope because we had met them in person. Right? They had driven all the way with Bella to our house.” Around this time, Candella Lukens also called up the breeder who her coworker had mentioned, Cheryl Carlson, founder and owner of Cher Car Kennels in Michigan. But Carlson said her business had stopped working with Argos two years prior — around
In early December, Candella Lukens said she gave Bush one last shot: Either he would deliver Bella on Jan. 6, or he would give them a full refund. Initially, Candella Lukens said, Bush agreed on the date. But on the day after Christmas, he texted her again. “For several reasons among those additional demands you are requesting the delivery of the service dog will not be possible,” he wrote, according to court records, referring to the records the Lukens family had requested. “We will begin the process of refunding the funds.” So, Candella Lukens waited until Jan. 6. When the date passed without any trace of the $17,000, she called the Chisago County Sheriff’s Office in Minnesota, she said. Prosecutors filed charges four months later. Looking back, Candella Lukens is embarrassed that she didn’t catch onto the scheme earlier — especially because she and her husband work in law enforcement. “This is what I do for a living,” she said. “And I let it happen to my family.”
Obstacles in suppressing the fraud
With a landscape free of regulations, David Favre says there are two main reasons for why fraud is prevalent in the service dog training business: The demand is high and, with the price for a dog often hovering around $25,000, the pay-off is even higher. Favre is a law professor at Michigan State University and serves as editor for its Animal Legal and Historical Center website. Over the last five years, he says he’s heard about people getting scammed by supposed service dog trainers “on a fairly regular basis.” However, Favre says he doesn’t foresee legislators taking up the mantle of urging the creation of a trainer registry anytime soon. “Most people are going to say, ‘It happens once or twice in the state every year or so — That’s not something worth creating a million-dollar agency over,’” he said. Nonetheless, Favre says he’s recently observed an uptick in the prosecution of fraudulent trainers. There needs to be more publicity
about these sorts of scams, coupled with stories about what happens when they’re identified, he said. “But the other thing is that those who are caught in this game need to make noise,” he said. And that’s just what Candella Lukens intends to do.
Autumn
When prosecutors were drawing up a plea agreement for Bush and his wife, Candella Lukens said she sent in some requests. For one, she asked for a restitution of $16,900 — the amount the family had paid the couple for Bella. (A friend had paid the other $100). And, more importantly, she asked that Bush and his wife receive lifetime bans from participating in or profiting from anything “related to dog breeding and dog training.” If they weren’t barred from these activities, Candella Lukens worried they’d fall back on their old business. When it became clear the family wouldn’t be bringing Bella home, Candella Lukens reached out to Carlson’s kennel once again. Their house needed a dog, and, by chance, Carlson had one in mind for the family — a sweet puppy who was good with kids. On the weekend Candella Lukens drove out to Michigan to bring Autumn home, a storm was blowing through the state. But even as the weather shifted from snow to sleet to rain to fog, Candella Lukens drove on. “I hit every weather condition there was,” she said, laughing at the memory, “but I was like, if I don’t come home with a dog, Jax won’t let me into the house.” Autumn isn’t a service dog, but Candella Lukens said she is perfect. While it took Juliana a bit to warm up to the newest member of her family, they get along just fine now. That morning, Juliana had woken up to Autumn poking her nose into her bed, Candella Lukens said. Maybe one day, the family will try again to find a service dog for Juliana, Candella Lukens and her husband said. They’ll be more cautious this time around, and do their due diligence in making sure the trainer is legitimate. But for now, their home feels full.

Lovejoy still advocating for young residents, lower tax bills By Jill Palermo
Times Staff Writer
When Manassas City Councilman Ian Lovejoy was first elected eight years ago, he was the youngest person to win a seat on the city council in recent memory. His goal was to bring a younger person’s perspective to city leadership. Lovejoy, now 38, is seeking re-election to a third term on Nov. 3, but his goal remains the same: to speak up for a generation of Manassas residents who are just starting out. “We are a young city. The average age of a Manassas resident is 33 years old,” Lovejoy said in a recent interview. “I think it is important to have someone on the city council who is at the beginning or middle of their career rather than to have a council comprised entirely of those on the latter end.” Lovejoy, a Republican, has been a consistent voice on the council for keeping real estate tax bills as low as possible for city residents. In recent years, that’s meant sometimes voting against the city budget and its corresponding real estate tax rate. Last May, with the city in the grips of the coronavirus pandemic, Lovejoy said minimizing tax bills seemed more important than ever. “I generally try not to vote for budgets that exceed inflation,” Lovejoy said. “…We haven’t had a flat tax

I thought this could be a year where we made the hard decision to really pare down [spending].” The current city budget, approved in a party-line vote by the council’s Democratic-majority, cut the city’s real estate tax rate by 2 cents, but average tax bills are projected to rise by about $14 a month due to higher residential assessments. Lovejoy said his main concern regarding city spending is whether real estate taxes have made living in the City of Manassas unaffordable. He points out that more than half of the city’s residents spend more than 30% of their income on housing. “If you’re a Manassas resident, you should take out your tax bills and compare them, year over year, and see if that’s sustainable,” he said. “It’s low-
County shares COVID relief funds with 14 nonprofits Staff Reports The Prince William Board of County Supervisors directed $950,000 of its federal CARES Act funding to local and regional nonprofits helping county residents cope with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and its resulting economic fallout. The supervisors gave the money to the Human Services Alliance of Greater Prince William, a nonprofit association of human services providers that aids local residents. The alliance then distributed the money to the nonprofits, according to a county press release. Action in Community Through Service received $90,000 to provide utility, rental and medication assistance. Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Washington received $150,000 and is using it to provide childcare scholarships to county residents for children to attend their centers at no cost to families. Bringing Resources To Aid Women’s Shelters received $50,000 to provide menstrual supplies, hygiene items, and undergarments to women experiencing extreme poverty and those living in shelters. CASA received $110,000 for their community services, focusing on their “multilingual health and human services hotline,” a health access referral, and insurance-enrollment services, employment assistance and financial support for their COVID-19 Relief Solidarity Fund. Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Arlington received $90,000 to provide emergency rental assistance to Prince William households at risk of homelessness due to COVID-19. Funds are helping to cover rent and utility payments. Edu-Futuro received $50,000 to help multigenerational and linguistically isolated immigrant and Latino households (especially those left out of other relief efforts) pay for housing and utility assistance, access to health care appointments and medication, employment assistance, child care costs, phone, internet, and other critical unmet human needs.

er-income families who are suffering.” Of his accomplishments in office so far, Lovejoy said he’s most proud of the 2,000 additional jobs employers such as Micron and Aurora Flight Sciences have added in the city over the past eight years. Among the most pressing issues facing the city, he said, is helping the employers and residents weather the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and resulting recession. The city has so far allocated about half of its $1.2 million in Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act funds, which it split between business grants and grants to residents for housing and utility costs. Lovejoy said he’d like the city to consider helping residents with childcare costs with the remaining money, if possible. “I think we need people on the council who are experienced job creators and focused on economic development … but we need to make sure we’re not just focusing on businesses but also using CARES Act funding to figure out how to best support people,” Lovejoy said. Lovejoy says he understands the challenges small businesses have amid pandemic restrictions. His own small business, Reliant Hiring Solutions, had to pivot from offering in-person to online job fairs back in March.
Lovejoy also recently launched an entertainment venture, “Treasure Quest Adventures,” that aims to host five COVID-19 friendly, real-life treasure hunts, each with a $50,000 prize, around Northern Virginia. Here’s where Lovejoy stands on some of the other issues facing the City of Manassas: On school funding: Lovejoy says he’d like the city council and the school board to reinstate a long-term funding agreement for the school division, but said the two boards must agree to set aside money solely for capital improvement projects, such as a new school to replace Jennie Dean Elementary. “I’m not opposed to a funding agreement but there needs to be a lot of work done on both sides to craft it,” Lovejoy said. On Grant Avenue: Lovejoy said he’s been against the $4 million streetscaping plan for Grant Avenue from the beginning and believes there’s still time to reverse course. The plan would reduce Grant Avenue from four lanes to two to underground utilities and make room for a wider pedestrian path and landscaping enhancements. “It’s a $4 million at a time when we’re trying to build Dean [elementary] and more ball fields,” Lovejoy said.

SINKHOLE, from page 1 The larger fix involves replacing the failed corrugated metal culvert with a new boxed concrete culvert as well as replacing the roadway that runs over it. That $1.5 million project will take about three to six months. The city received funding for the project in late 2018 and was making final plans in recent weeks, O’Dell said. During the meeting, Manassas Park Mayor Jeanette Rishell acknowledged the culvert had been failing for years. “This should have been fixed over a decade ago. When I and the governing body learned of the serious condition of the culvert, we placed a priority on Moseby and of course the other roads and culverts across the city,” she said at the meeting. “Unfortunately, the city was not able to move fast enough to fix Moseby because we had to secure funding due to the weak financial condition of the city. … This type of event is a direct result of a lack of incoming revenue. The city needs to address infrastructure and all unmet needs.” O’Dell said city workers noticed the culvert was deteriorating earlier this spring and were planning to reline the culvert as a stop-gap measure to maintain its integrity until the new concrete culvert could be installed. “Although the [engineering] reports didn’t say there was an immediate threat of failure, there were obvious signs of distress in the culvert,” O’Dell said.

Caution tape surrounds the sinkhole blocking the only entrance and exit to the Moseby Ridge neighborhood in Manassas Park. The road gave way sometime before 5 a.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 12. A police officer on patrol in the area first noticed that a tree had fallen across the roadway. On closer inspection, he realized a sinkhole had opened on Moseby Court near its intersection with Moseby Drive. The area is the only entrance and exit to Moseby Ridge, a subdivision of about 400 residents living in 80 townhomes and 16 condominiums. The sinkhole effectively left the residents stranded with no way in or out. One unoccupied, parked car got swept into the creek and had to be removed with heavy equipment. Several other parked vehicles had to be towed away from the sinkhole, but there were no injuries. With help from the City of Manassas, public works employees built a way out for the residents by about 2 p.m. that afternoon. The solution was a temporary gravel road from the back of the neighborhood that connects Mosby Court with Stonewall Road,

which runs through Stonewall Park. The Manassas Park City Council approved spending up to $375,000 for an emergency crossing along Moseby Court that residents can use while the new culvert is being installed. The project will take about three weeks. At the same time, work will begin on the larger project, which O’Dell said should take no longer than six months. City Councilman Don Shuemaker expressed frustration that the project wasn’t already underway before the road collapsed. “It concerns me that we spent so much time and had so many delays and then we had a catastrophic failure like this,” Shuemaker said. “I WALTS, from page 1 Following the July 22 meeting, Lateef issued a statement saying the board “would use the information to undertake a range of responsive actions, including an assessment of current policies, procedures and training regarding official use of [the school division’s] social media platforms.” Walts emailed school board members on Aug. 13 about his retirement and then shared the news with some school division staff during the annual Equity and Excellence in Education conference, which was held virtually. Walts appeared on video with his wife, Kathleen, their teenage daughter and the family’s two dogs to make the announcement. Walts later issued a formal statement at about 3:15 p.m. that day. In his statement, Walts said he was making the decision now to ensure the school division has time to select his successor. Walts said he strived during his more than 15 years at the helm of the school division to put “students and staff first!” He said his “proudest achievement” during his tenure was his recommendation, made during his first year, that the school division transition to full-day kindergarten for every student. “This doubled the learning time of our youngest learners, ultimately helping every teacher at every grade level,” Walts wrote. “We have also slowly expanded pre-kindergarten opportunities.” Walts noted several other achievements under his leadership, including rising SAT scores, the opening of the Governor’s School at Innovation Park, the opening of more than 20 new schools “on time and on budget,” expanding the ranks of school nurses to ensure one for every school and adding new high school career and technical education programs as well as specialty programs. “I greatly appreciate Dr. Walts’ more than 15 years of leadership and service as the superintendent of the Prince William County Public Schools,” wrote Lateef (at large). “The school board will be working nonstop during this process to identify the best possible individual to carry on the important job of directing our schools at one of the most challenging and critical times in our history.”
want people to know we have taken these issues seriously.” O’Dell said the project was complicated and required several steps and approvals from various agencies. The last hiccup, he noted, was to figure out a way to do the work while still maintaining access for residents of the Moseby Ridge neighborhood. The temporary roadway and the temporary crossing over Moseby Court will help in that regard. Once the crossing is finished, that should allow residents a way in and out of the neighborhood during the construction, O’Dell said. Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@ fauquier.com Lateef said Walts will be remembered for “a significant increase in the on-time graduation rate” as well as for establishing full-day kindergarten and building 25 new schools “all during a period that saw student enrollment nearly double.” “I wish Dr. Walts and his family well as he transitions into a well-deserved retirement,” Lateef said. Walts’ announcement comes at difficult time for the school division and Walts personally. The school division is preparing to begin the school year on Sept. 8 with nearly 100% virtual instruction through the first quarter due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Walts and the Prince William County School Board are also being sued for $2.3 million in a defamation of character lawsuit filed in July by Ryan Sawyers, a former school board chairman who resigned in February 2018. Sawyers left the board after unsuccessfully calling for Walts to resign, a move his fellow school board members did not support. The lawsuit stems from a video Walts made in May announcing he was suspending his Twitter account amid the allegations he exchanged private messages with students in violation of the school division’s social media policy. The allegations were made by Gainesville resident Guy Morgan, a close associate and political supporter of Sawyers. In the video, which has since been taken offline, Walts blamed an unnamed “former school board member” for a making the allegations in an effort to “smear and slander [him] for purely political purposes” during his contract review. Walts further said the person had “chosen to bully and attack PWCS students online” regarding Walts’ Twitter account. In his lawsuit, Sawyers denied bullying students online and said such claims damaged his business. Sawyers owns a sports marketing firm that facilitates youth sports camps for colleges and university sports programs. Walts sought to extend his contract beyond the 2020-21 school year back in June 2019, but the school board denied that request in a 4-4 tie vote. Reach Jill Palermo at jpalermo@fauquier.com

Twenty-six Prince William high school students were honored as valedictorians and salutatorians during graduation events in June and, in some local high schools, in special ceremonies earlier this month. After earning top grades at their respective high schools, these bright young students will seek degrees at major U.S. colleges and universities, many of which are in Virginia.
Battlefield High School
Valedictorians and salutatorians are named based on cumulative grade point average and more than one student may qualify.

GUEST OPINION
It’s time to lift up Black women Black women, many of whom are essential workers in demanding jobs such as home health care aides and child care workers, are among those who have been hit hardest as COVID-19 has impacted working families across the nation and the world. Black women face discrimination in the workplace and less support from managers, resulting in barriers to professional development. Black women in Virginia constantly share these experiences with me, and what’s clear through their stories is that the pandemic has exposed and exacerbated challenges that have always existed for Black women. We also know that on top of the health care disparities, Black women are paid significantly less than their white peers. For many, it took until Thursday, Aug. 13, Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, to earn what their white male colleagues earned in 2019. This unfortunate reality is compounded by the fact that Black women are largely underrepresented in company leadership and receive promotions at slower rates. And in certain fields like STEM or law or even sales, the opportunities for advancement are even fewer, leaving many Black women waiting to become another “first.” And then, when they do achieve some success, they’re often the only Black person in the room, expected to represent an entire race of people. This nod of congratulations is grounded in both celebration and frustration. As one of the first Black women to graduate from the Virginia Military Institute, I know the tension between the two. In high school, I watched as Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg proclaimed that “women can do all things if given the opportunity.” She inspired me to attend VMI, where I was one of only a handful of Black women. Eventually, I became a magistrate judge, public defender, and then criminal defense attorney -- one among a tiny portion of Black lawyers in the country. Just 5% of lawyers in the U.S. are Black. In 2017, I had to work exceptionally hard to be elected to the General Assembly in a former Confederate state. Black women should not have to fight just to be the exception in the room, or accept the unequal pay that greets them at the door. It’s on all of us--companies, schools, political parties, faith communities, and more--to increase representation and eliminate the pay gap. Black

women have been told to be patient for far too long. During the 2020 regular legislative session, I worked to pass legislation to end the discriminatory policies and practices that impact Black women as early elementary school. The Dress Code Equity Act, a new law I sponsored this year, works to reduce school pushout--an informal process that impacts Black girls at 5.5 times the rate of other students. Discriminatory dress codes at schools are fueling those numbers, which is why the law directs schools to provide guidelines that promote a safe environment that respects students’ religious and ethnic differences, instead of using these differences to hold young women of color back from receiving the education they deserve. I also partnered with Del. Delores McQuinn on The Crown Act, successfully expanding protections against discrimination on the basis of hairstyle or texture. These laws also make the transition to higher education, and eventually into the workforce, much easier. What’s more, they help to create environments that acknowledge and celebrate the cultural influences Black women have to offer. I also introduced legislation to protect Black women from being pushed out of the workforce on the basis of pregnancy and childbirth discrimination. In a recent study, researchers found that nearly three in 10 charges of pregnancy discrimination were filed by Black women, though we make up only 14% of women in the workforce between the ages of 16-54. The fight for equality for Black women in the workplace cannot wait any longer. In order to put an end to these disparities we must confront systemic obstacles head on and break this vicious cycle. Del. Jennifer Carrol Foy, D-2nd, represents parts of Prince William and Stafford counties in the Virginia House of Delegates. She is also a candidate for the Democratic nomination to run for Virginia governor in 2021.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Move to reject bypass a ‘great’ step The Prince William Board of County Supervisors got to the third stage of team building on Aug. 4, when it made a decision on how to “fix 28.” County staff had announced five days before the board’s July 14 meeting that an official decision was needed to build a Va. 28 bypass up Flat Branch, on Alignment 2B, with a future price tag of at least $200 million in county bonds. Staff expected a rubber-stamp approval. Fortunately, the new Coles District supervisor recognized the destruction of over 50 homes for a commuter highway required more community engagement. She negotiated a three-week delay. Several supervisors from other districts took time to visit the proposed site of the new road and to listen to those who would be affected. Several supervisors took
the time to meet with other local residents with expertise in transportation planning. On Aug. 4, all eight supervisors chose to adopt “Alignment 4” rather than “Alignment 2B” pushed by staff. It was the first time the new supervisors listened to citizen input, explored alternatives to staff recommendations for a transportation project and made an independent decision. The next step is for the supervisors to increase transparency of the process for all transportation decisions which require their vote, and to structure the decision process so land use and transportation decisions are integrated. They made a great first step on Aug. 4. Let’s hope they continue on the journey.
CHARLIE GRYMES Mobility Chair, Prince William Conservation Alliance
Va. 28 widening a chance to revitalize Yorkshire Active Prince William applauds the Prince William Board of County Supervisors for rejecting the Va. 28 bypass on Aug. 4. We agree that doing nothing to fix Va. 28 through Yorkshire is not an option; however, widening Centreville Road itself by adding two general-purpose travel lanes could disrupt many businesses. Virginia Department of Transportation’s Va. 28 Strategic Targeted Affordable Roadway Solutions study, championed by Del. Danica Roem, recently recommended a $38 million package of intersection, median and pedestrian improvements that --in the absence of general roadway widening -- would significantly reduce delays and expand capacity and pedestrian access along Va. 28. Unfortunately, proceeding with widening Va. 28 through Yorkshire could make the
study’s sensible and cost-effective recommendations infeasible. Therefore, we encourage the BOCS to explore an alternative approach integrated with a new land-use plan for economic development and revitalization along the corridor. The widening could be modified to include a new multimodal street just to the west, so highway investment could stimulate transit-oriented, mixed-use redevelopment of the properties between and fronting the existing and future sections of Centreville Road. Integrated planning could foster the creation of a vibrant new livable community with affordable housing at a key gateway to Prince William County. RICK HOLT Active Prince William chairman

Kona Ice truck hits the road amid COVID-19 Local franchisee adapts to keep customers cool, sales hot By John Hagarty
Ice truck is a state-of-the-art vehicle with the sole purpose of selling shaved-ice treats. Then in a blink of a COVID-19 eye, their dreams melted as quickly as their ice delights. After spending half a year buying their franchise and graduating from “Kona Kollege” as certified owners of one of the fastest-growing franchises in the country, their vision evaporated. Today, things are back on track.

The business is growing at a blistering pace in time to ease the blistering heat of Virginia’s summer. A central feature of Kona Ice’s corporate business strategy centers on fundraising for worthy causes. In the past 10 years, its franchisees have donated more than $82 million to thousands of organizations.

franchise. The company is supportive of women, veterans and law enforcement owners, they said. “In March, we were ready to go. We had schools, nonprofits, youth sports, churches and more lined up. We were booked through the end of October. We had our very first school event in early March, and then everything came to a halt,” said Lischak. The company’s more than 1,200 franchisees faced the same crippling halt of business. With group gatherings shutdown, the corporation quickly pivoted to save its owners. “What Kona corporate did was enable us to offer curbside call and delivery in neighborhoods,” said Lischak. “The company created an app called Kurbside Kona so customers can go online to order their frozen treats. It’s similar to other restaurant and pizza delivery businesses.” “When you order online, you set a specific time for delivery and what products you want. We call five minutes before arrival to let you know we are on the way,” said Terleckyj. They sell five different sizes of cups from the 9-ounce Kiddie for $3 up to the 22-ounce Kowabunga for $6.

FAUQUIER HIGH NEEDS NEW WRESTLING COACH
Doug Fisher, who won three state titles as Fauquier High wrestling coach, has resigned after a 10-year run. “I just felt I had done what I had set out to do, and I was comfortable where I was,” said Fisher, whose son Sam is moving on to wrestle at Virginia Tech.

She could have gone to Battlefield, she thrived at Wakefield
The Mulkerin File
Mulkerin emerges as private school’s Athlete of the Year By Peter Brewington Times Staff Writer
Chelsea Mulkerin made a heartfelt decision when she came to Wakefield School in 2016 as a freshman. Most of her club soccer teammates on the high-caliber VSA 02 NPL squad were feeding into Battlefield, and that’s where the Haymarket resident was slated to go as well. But she was intrigued by Wakefield and applied. When she was awarded the school’s Archwood Scholarship, offering 50% tuition for four years, that sealed the deal, although she admits, “It was the hardest decision I ever made.” By going to Wakefield, she opted out of playing for a three-time state
champion in the state’s largest classification, a team often watched by NCAA Division I coaches. In return, she embraced a tight-knit school with great academics and the ability to play different sports. She excelled in volleyball, basketball, squash and soccer as a Fighting Owl, ending her career as Fauquier Times 2020 Wakefield Girls Athlete of the Year. She was also valedictorian, sharing the honor with James Reid, Wakefield’s Boys Athlete of the Year, and her boyfriend. In soccer she made first team Delaney Athletic Conference for three years and led the Owls in scoring each year. Always a defensive player, Mulkerin transitioned to striker at Wake-

The 5-foot-7 Mulkerin relished playing with her younger sister Lainey, a rising junior. She was wistful her final season was canceled due to the pandemic. “I was excited, I was going to be captain and get to play my senior year with my little sister. We were going to be the dynamic duo,” said Mulkerin. “Playing soccer with her at Wakefield is one of my best memories of high school. She is my secret weapon on the field, and we have an incredible dynamic when we play together.” Mulkerin was a setter and outside hitter in volleyball her freshman and sophomore years. She played competitive basketball as a club player, but only competed at Wakefield her freshman year. She picked up squash at Wakefield and played three years. As a senior, she was the only girl on the squad, played as the No. 6 seed and was team captain. Her start in squash came after her parents won a free lesson at an auction. Noting she was a freshman and some popular upperclassmen were running the session, “I was mortified to go. Lainey went with me and when we got there, we could not hit the ball. We were wearing these ugly goggles and it was so embarrassing. But I ended up loving the sport.” She said squash helped bring her and Reid together. “I started dating him that summer. We played a lot together. He’s been on the team since seventh grade. I wanted to get better and be as good as him.” She said the high cardio demands of squash help her cope with a circulation disorder she has called
Family: Father Jay works for Cisco Systems. Mother Kristin worked in the telecom industry for over 20 years and recently stopped working. Sister Lainey will be a Wakefield junior this fall and has also played soccer her entire life. The Mulkerins have lived in Gainesville since 2004. Number: “18 has been my number my entire life.” Favorite food: Haagen-Dazs Chocolate Chocolate Chip ice cream. Favorite movie: “The Choice.” Superstitions: “I eat an entire Snickers bar right before every soccer game. You're not you when you're hungry.” Favorite actor: Ryan Reynolds. Favorite restaurant: Petite LouLou Creperie in Purcellville. Possible career: Attending University of Virginia this fall and will major in pre-med and business. Plans to be a pediatric cardiologist.
postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), which sees an abnormally large increase in heart rate when a person goes from a horizontal to standing position. Mulkerin said her heart rate is often 200 beats a minute while exercising and can be around 100 when resting. “It’s been described as constantly living in a state of what feels like a hangover. A lot of times POTS patients are too tired to work out,” she said. For Mulkerin, working out is a lifestyle, and her condition doesn’t stop her. “Having POTS forces me to do high intensity cardio workouts daily. Squash is incredibly tiring but it’s so much fun and so good for my body. I use mind over matter to force myself to get out there and play, and afterwards I feel great,” says Mulkerin. “But it’s never easy.” She eats a lot of sodium, including “Splits” pretzels, and doesn’t mind sharing details of her condition, which occurs more often in women. She wrote her senior thesis on POTS and aspires to be a pediatric cardiologist, which could involve helping others with the condition. Mom Kristin says it’s “not easy watching Chelsea go through life living in a constant state of brain fog and exhaustion, but she hasn’t let it slow her down one bit.” She’ll attend the University of Virginia and target a medical career. She notes going to UVa. will be different this fall, but is embracing being on campus even with all classes on-line. She hopes to play club soccer, continuing a sport that began when she was 4.

Dwight Hall “Hap” Rollins (1926 – 2020) Dwight Rollins, of Winchester VA, died peacefully in his sleep on August 13, 2020 at age 93. Born August 25, 1926 to Carle and Dorothy Rollins in Flushing, New York, he was raised in Manhasset, where he graduated from Manhasset High School in 1944. He earned the name “Hap”, derived from “Happy” in high school due to his sunny disposition, which carried through his life. He graduated from Johns Hopkins University with a BS in Business in 1951. He enlisted in the Army Air Corp in 1944 where he trained in Arizona as a bombardier before WWII ended in 1945. He received an Honorable Discharge in1946. Dad was a member of The National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution. He met his beautiful wife Virginia DiGregorio during Virginia’s first few years of teaching at Manhasset High School. At the time, Dwight was a salesman for American Viscose Corporation working out of Baltimore. They were married in 1954 in Poughkeepsie, New York, and had four children: David, Carla, Patricia and Michael. Dad faithfully served his community for over twenty years, first as Finance Director and then Comptroller for the Town of North Hempstead in Nassau County on Long Island. During that time the family lived in Manhasset; first on Webster Avenue, then later on Plandome Road in the Village of Plandome Heights. Over the years, Dad gave himself wholeheartedly to local volunteer organizations. He was Past Commander of American Legion Post 304; Commissioner, Manhasset Park District; Planning Board member, Village of Plandome Heights;; coach or assistant coach for local PBC or CYO teams; Cub Scout leader, and he participated in numerous other civic projects and organizations. Dad and Mom were always faithful communicants at the local Catholic Church in whatever community they lived. After retirement from the Town of North Hempstead in 1991, Dad and Mom built a retirement home and relocated to the Governor’s Land at Two Rivers, Williamsburg, VA. Several years later, they moved to Haymarket, VA, and finally to Westminster Canterbury Independent Living facility in Winchester, VA, where he lived happily with Mom until his death. Dad and Mom loved to travel, visiting Europe several times. His favorite participatory sport in high school was lacrosse, and later as an adult he was an avid golfer. Dad loved his family, work, golf, skiing and sailing in his younger years, Lionel trains, woodworking, photography, pottery, card and board games, jigsaw puzzles, reading, and a Perfect Manhattan on special occasions, but most of all he loved to be with Mom. Dad was known for his dry sense of humor, his clichés, his card-playing ability (especially Bridge, Cribbage, Gin Rummy, and Five-card Poker), the great way he would share the higher mysteries of how things work and how to do things right! He was a wonderful husband and father and will be so dearly missed. Dwight is survived by his wife Virginia, son David of Keller TX, daughters Carla of Winchester VA, and Patricia of Fairfax VA, son Michael of Charleston SC, 13 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren. A funeral service was held at Westminster Canterbury. There will be a family burial at St. Mary’s Church in Wappinger Falls, New York at a later date. In lieu of flowers, a donation to Shenandoah Valley Westminster Canterbury Memory Support Fund, 300 Westminster Canterbury Dr., Winchester, VA 22603 (or on-line at svwc.org/donate-now/ (indicate Memory Support fund: Dwight Rollins) would be greatly appreciated.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations for the City of Manassas and Unincorporated Areas of Prince William County, Virginia, Case No. 20-03-0476P. The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) solicits technical information or comments on proposed flood hazard determinations for the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), and where applicable, the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your community. These flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway. The FIRM and, if applicable, the FIS report have been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title 44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations. These determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures that your community is required to adopt or show evidence of having in effect to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. For more information on the proposed flood hazard determinations and information on the statutory 90-day period provided for appeals, please visit FEMA’s website at www.fema.gov/ plan/prevent/fhm/bfe, or call the FEMA Mapping and Insurance eXchange (FMIX) toll free at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627).
