‘There was nothing left’
2 families lose everything — except their dog — when their Haymarket home explodes by C her M uzyk
Staff Writer
First, the good news: Six days after a Haymarket home shared by two young families was destroyed by an explosion that followed a natural gas leak, one of their three pets emerged from the rubble seemingly unharmed. “Brandy” was rescued by Prince William County firefighters on Monday, Oct. 21, after an insurance investigator heard the dog making sounds from beneath what was left of the home. Firefighters were called, and about 20 minutes later, Brandy was coaxed from the debris, according to Matt Smolsky, assistant Prince William County fire chief. “We have no idea how she survived,” said Jarrett Struniak, one of four adults who lived in the home, which is located in the Piedmont Club area of Haymarket. “She had no injuries that I am aware of.” In the week since the explosion, the two families have been trying to come to grips with how their home and all of their belongings, including two vehicles, were destroyed so quickly. Struniak said he was spending time with his 3-year-old daughter on the afternoon of Tuesday, Oct. 15, when his housemate said they had to get out fast. “We were just lying on the couch, me and my daughter and one of my cats, when she said ... (a worker) hit a gas line,” Struniak said. The housemates had recently noticed a spike in their water bill and learned there was a leak in the water line. A plumbing contractor was drilling a trench for a new line that afternoon when the machinery nicked the 2-inch gas line. Struniak said he could smell the gas in the air as soon as they got outside. “I used to be a volunteer firefighter, and I knew it was not a good situation,” he said. Firefighters arrived at about 4:25 p.m. and immediately called the gas company, which arrived at about 5:13 p.m., Smolsky said. About 10 minutes later, the unthink-

I saw every second of it,” Struniak said. “I heard the explosion and then pretty much everything just went silent after that. My mind started racing, and for the first time in my life, I felt extremely helpless. ... There was nothing left.” Struniak said the damage is hard to describe. “Our back porch and the back side of our house is scattered through the woods behind our neighbors’ backyards. Part of our deck is in the trees,” he said. “The top of our house is on top of our cars.” Although the dog miraculously survived, Struniak has yet to find his two cats, Jax and Luna. Fortunately, no humans were hurt. Struniak, his fiancée, Maleah Fulbright, and their daughter moved into the home last April with their friends, Josh Jeffries and Megan Schnapp, and their nearly 2-year-old baby.

NEWS ELECTION CONTROVERSY
Former election chief sues Va. attorney general Michele White says her criminal charges – now dropped – were malicious by J ill P alermo
Managing Editor
Michele White, the former Prince William County elections chief who was charged with felony crimes over the 2020 presidential election, has sued Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares, saying the charges were false and politically motivated. Two years ago, Miyares brought criminal charges against White for tabulation mistakes during the 2020 election but later dropped the charges on the eve of White’s trial. White filed a malicious prosecution
lawsuit in federal court Thursday, Oct. 17 against Miyares, his former assistant attorney general and their investigators. She is seeking an unspecified amount of monetary damages. The lawsuit asks the court to hold Miyares and his deputies “accountable” for prosecuting White via the state’s Election Integrity Unit, according to Protect Democracy, a nonpartisan, anti-authoritarian nonprofit that is representing White. “After the 2020 election, which Ms. White helped oversee, she became a target of a politically motivated campaign aimed at promoting unfounded claims of widespread voter fraud,” Protect Democracy said in a news release. “The prosecution withheld crucial evidence for over a year, causing significant harm to Ms. White’s personal and professional life.” In response, Miyares’ office said the “lawsuit is wrong on the facts and the law.”
In a statement, White said she was unfairly prosecuted. “I worked every day for nearly 20 years to ensure that Virginia elections ran smoothly and according to law,” Michele White White said. “The defendants showed no interest in the truth and treated my career and well-being as collateral damage.” White was charged in September 2022 with corruption, lying and neglect of duty. For 16 months, Miyares’ office refused to detail White’ alleged criminal actions before Miyares dropped the charges in December 2023. Current Prince William County Registrar Eric Olsen revealed the mistakes he found in an interview with the Prince William Times earlier this year.
Olsen said he discovered tabulation errors in the election results Prince William County reported to the state that resulted in former President Donald Trump being credited with about 2,300 more votes from the county than he received. The error did not change the outcome of the election in the county. Trump lost Prince William County to President Joe Biden by more than 60,000 votes. The errors in 2020 were likely due to a “lack of proper planning, a difficult election environment and human error,” Olsen said at the time. White resigned from her post in March 2021, well before she was indicted. Miyares’ office said last year the charges were dropped because a witness changed their testimony.

Test scores, absenteeism at issue in Manassas race by C her M uzyk
Staff Writer
Lagging test scores and lingering chronic absenteeism since the pandemic are hot topics in the City of Manassas School Board race, where eight candidates are vying for four at-large seats on the seven-member board. Only two incumbents are seeking reelection — school board Chair Suzanne Seaberg and Christina Brooks — and the other six candidates are newcomers. Brooks is running as an independent, while the other seven candidates have formed two partisan slates. Seaberg, 59, has been endorsed by the local Democratic committee along with newcomers Diana Brown, 52, and Zella Jones, 67. Seaberg is seeking her third full term. Brown has a master’s degree in early childhood education and works in special education services for Prince William County. Jones has a doctorate in education from Virginia Tech and was principal at Weems Elementary School, retiring in 2022. Brooks, 50, is seeking her second term. She has a master’s degree in education and is a retired teacher. Brooks is a vice president of a government contracting business and runs a custom seamstress business. The GOP-endorsed slate is composed of four newcomers: Allie Forkell, Javanese Hailey, Dayna Miles and Maidy Whitesell. Forkell, 32, is a graduate of Osbourn High School and has a master’s in special education. She taught at Osbourn High School for six years and currently works as a logistics analyst. Hailey, 43, has a master’s degree in education and teaches in Fairfax County Public Schools. Miles, 43, has a master’s degree and has taught for 11 years, eight years in Manassas Park City Schools and currently in Prince William County. Whitesell, 41, has a bachelor’s degree in business and works as a global corporate strategist. Last year, about 22% of the city’s 7,700 students were “chronically absent,” meaning they missed more than

That was down 4 percentage points from the 26% chronic absentee rate the previous school year. The absenteeism rate and a gap in passing rates in math among different groups of students has caused two of the division’s nine schools — Osbourn High and Grace E. Metz Middle — to be accredited with conditions this year, according to the Virginia Department of Education. At Metz Middle, 60% of students passed their math tests last year, but the passing rates ranged from 92% for Asian students to 51% for economically disadvantaged students. At Osbourn High School, 65% of students passed their math tests, but passing rates ranged from 78% for Asian students to 47% for students with disabilities. Rates of chronic absenteeism were 36% at Osbourn High and 22% at Metz Middle. About 70% of the school division’s
students are Hispanic. Just more than half are English language learners, and 48% are considered economically disadvantaged. The Republican-endorsed candidates have said schools need “more rigorous academic expectations” and “stronger discipline.” “I believe schools should work for everyone — parents, students and teachers, and right now, they don’t,” Miles said. “Let’s start lifting kids up rather than lowering the expectations.” The Democratic-endorsed candidates have said the school board needs to improve passing rates on state tests by providing a supportive learning environment that includes social and emotional wellness and strengthening parent engagement. Seaberg said her priority is to fully support the division’s five-year strategic plan that was developed in 2022. The plan serves as a roadmap to improve test scores and graduation rates, ac-
cording to the division’s website. “Our goals are set. We have a detailed strategy to achieve them,” Seaberg said. Brooks said she is most proud of increasing the number of teachers serving English language learners and providing free school meals to students. “Students can’t learn if their needs aren’t met,” she said. “I’m happy we can help with that.” If reelected, Brooks said she wants the school division to continue on the “upward path that has been set in motion, and I know it takes time.” Current school board members Robyn Williams and Carl Hollingsworth are not running for reelection. Williams is seeking a seat on the Manassas City Council. Remaining on the school board with terms expiring in 2026 are Vice Chair Lisa Stevens and Jill Spall, both of whom were endorsed by the local Democratic committee, and Sara Brescia, who was backed by the local Republican committee.

Board decides not to hire panhandlers to pick up trash “What’s been proposed was never my intent.”
by E velyn M ejia
Staff Writer
Prince William County won’t be paying panhandlers anytime soon to pick up roadside trash. Prince William County supervisors decided Tuesday, Oct. 15 to hold off on that idea, intended to keep panhandlers from asking passing motorists for money. The plan proposed paying panhandlers $13 an hour to pick up litter. Participants would work two threehour shifts a week, allowing them to earn up to $78 a week. The estimated cost of the program was $550,000. The idea emerged from the county’s “Panhandling Process Action Team,” a task force formed after Supervisor Yesli Vega, of the Coles District, asked county staff to address the rising inci-

“What’s been proposed was never my intent,” Vega said. “This has morphed into something that, quite frankly, I’m baffled over.” Vega said her initial directive was
for the county attorney’s office to draft a narrowly defined ordinance that would prohibit the exchange of objects in right-of-way intersections. The plan also proposed encouraging residents to give money to local nonprofits rather than directly to people asking for cash at busy intersections. Several supervisors had concerns, including that communications strategy was not bold enough. Some said the messages about not giving money to panhandlers should be more direct.

Manassas woman charged in husband’s fatal shooting A 36-year-old Manassas man was shot and killed Monday, and his 34-year-old wife has been charged with murdering him, according to City of Manassas police. The shooting occurred at a home in the 9200 block of Brinkley Lane, a residential area near All Saints Church. Police arrived at 2:29 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 21 and found Curtis Bryant Crabbe, 36, suffering from gunshot wounds. Crabbe died at the scene, according to Sgt. Brett Stumpf, a City of Manassas Police spokesman. The police investigation determined the shooting was between the couple who lived at the home. Latoya Christine Crabbe, 34, was arrested, charged with second-degree murder and use of a firearm in connection with the fatal shooting. The homicide was the City of Manassas’ first of the year, Stumpf said. Crabbe was being held without bond at the Prince William Manassas Regional Adult Detention Center, awaiting a court hearing. Police are still investigating the incident and ask that anyone with information contact Detective A. Dranko at 571-3938641. Anonymous tips can be left with the Crime Solvers Tip Line at 703-330-0330. - Staff Report
Manassas man charged with killing renters Police have arrested a 49-year-old Manassas man in the double murder that took the lives of a married couple renting his basement, according to Prince William County police. Officers found the victims, Joshua Lee Davis and Nicole Wanda Lynn Davis, both 45, dead from gunshot wounds at 2:39 a.m. on Sunday, Oct. 13 during a welfare check of their home in the 8900 block of Hanson Grove Court in the Independence community of Manassas, according to Lt. Jonathan Perok, a Prince William County police spokesman. The neighborhood is near University Boulevard and Sudley Manor Drive. On Tuesday, Oct. 15, detectives charged Amandeep Singh, 49, who also lives in the home, with two counts of homicide and multiple other charges in connection with the murders. Singh was being held in New Jersey, awaiting extradition to Prince William County, Perok said. Singh was arrested after Prince William County police received information from New Jersey authorities that he was involved in a separate incident at a family member’s home there. During that investigation, New Jersey police learned about concerns regarding the Davises and alerted Prince William County police, Perok said. The fatal shootings apparently followed another incident inside the
Manassas home on Saturday, Oct. 12 between Singh and two of his family members, a 50-year-old woman and a 53-year-old woman. The Davises were not involved in that incident, which was not initially reported to police, Perok said. Singh was allegedly armed with a handgun and held both women against their will inside a bedroom of the Manassas home. At one point, Singh allegedly fired a round near both women, but neither was struck by gunfire, Perok said. Singh and the women eventually separated, and the other family members left the home. Some point after that, Singh allegedly shot and killed the Davises in the basement before leaving the home and driving to New Jersey in an attempt to locate his family, Perok said. Detectives are continuing to investigate all incidents involving Singh to determine what led up to the fatal shootings. Anyone who has information to aid in the investigation is asked to call 703-792-6500. Singh has been charged with two counts of murder, four counts of use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, two counts of abduction, one count of strangulation and other charges in connection with both incidents, Perok said. - Staff Report

Dumfries hopefuls aim to boost safety, growth by E velyn M ejia
Staff Writer
Dumfries voters aren’t just picking a new U.S. president and members of Congress this election season. They’re also deciding who will lead their town council. Incumbents Brian Fields and Shaun Peet are seeking reelection to the Dumfries Town Council, alongside Dumfries Planning Commissioner Russell Young and community activist Ebony Lofton. The four are vying for three seats on the six-member council. Councilman Tyrone Brown is not seeking reelection. The candidates are talking about increasing transparency, improving public safety and boosting economic growth in Dumfries, a town of about 6,000 residents between Woodbridge and Quantico along U.S. 1. Fields, 54, is seeking a third term. Peet, 45, is seeking a second term.
Young, 56, ran unsuccessfully for town council and was appointed to the planning commission earlier this year. Lofton, 49, previously ran as a last-minute write-in candidate for the Dumfries Town Council in 2020 and ran unsuccessfully for Dumfries mayor in 2022. Lofton, a Dumfries resident for 10 years and former president of the South Cove Homeowners Association, says she’d like to bridge the gap among residents and the council by increasing transparency. Lofton was a critic of “The Rose” gaming resort, now under construction along Interstate 95 near Va. 234, and believes the town should focus on bringing different businesses to the community. She says she’d like to attract a grocery store to increase residents’ healthy food options. Young has lived in Dumfries since 2021 and worked for 18 years as a hous-

Young said that, if elected, he would focus on public safety, economic development, increasing transparency in local government and creating a local government summer program to increase youth civic engagement. Fields said he’s seeking reelection to continue working on projects he’s helped bring to Dumfries.
“I’ve been part of Dumfries now for almost 20 years and, from being a police officer to now being on the town council, I just want to see things Brian Fields through,” Fields said. Fields said transparency has been at the forefront for the council the past few years. Dumfries Citizens Connect, along with the Dumfries town website, serves as a newsletter and does the job of connecting residents with the town government, Fields said.

Tailoring our future: Putting Manassas first Manassas has a lot going for it. Since 2020, the economy and labor market of Northern Virginia have changed. Workers are spending less time in Washington, D.C., commuting less frequently, and working from home in the communities of their choosing. Manassas is one such place. Our proximity to the nation’s capital with commuter rail, with the expansion plan of nearby higher education institutions, its quaint culture, and historic energy can turn this once-small town into a destination for the global marketplace. My family came here many years ago, fleeing communism. Like so many living in Manassas today, I know what it is like to be uprooted, on the move, and in search of a true home. When I finally became a U.S. citizen in 1991, Manassas opened its arms wide and offered me the “American dream” I had heard so much about as a child.

Over the last four years, the City of Manassas has lost a lot of citizens over the high tax rate and schools failing our children. We have an opportunity in Manassas to harness the winds of change and put Manassas on the map as the place to build a life, raise a family and start a business. That starts with laying the foundation for a safer, stronger and more prosperous Manassas, which I intend to do during
the first 100 days of my administration. Next week, I will be releasing our tailored plan for success. It starts with a promise to the citizens of Manassas. Our schools have missed full accreditation for the third year in a row. Chronic absenteeism is on the rise at Osbourn High School, and our current city leadership believes our children are best served by ignoring the crisis and saying everything is great — when parents and children know it is not. Staff retention has been a major problem. We have been operating without a permanent city manager and police chief for over a year, which has been hurting everything in Manassas. This has to be FIXED. Our city staff needs more support, and we need to do all we can to keep them here. Not having permanent staff in key roles has led to lapses in services
for the citizens. On day one, I will meet with our interim city manager, interim police chief, fire chief and top city leadership to establish strong communication channels and review our most pressing challenges. We need to build long-term citizen confidence in a stable tax rate and stop raising taxes every year that put financial strains on our citizens. Confidence from residents will not happen overnight, but I plan to earn it. Trust and transparency will be the cornerstone of my office. After all, it’s your office too. I will work for you, listen to you and respect your voice in our city — this place we all call home.

Clarifying 3 misconceptions about voting Early voting expanded to all six locations across Prince William County on Sunday, Oct. 13. Most weekend voting options and all satellite voting locations are open longer than any county in Virginia. Alternatively, voters can apply for a mail ballot until Oct. 25 at 5 p.m. If you miss these options, you can still cast your ballot on Election Day on Tuesday, Nov. 5 at your assigned polling place. Go to pwcvotes.org for locations, hours and more. Beyond knowing how and where to vote, we have found that some voters have concerns rooted in speculation, conspiracies and misinformation. The election process is very secure with multiple redundancies and many security features. Here are some clarifications to questions we receive. “How do I know the scanner is reading my ballot correctly?” We tested more than 10,000 ballots for this election. We ran test ballots through

every scanner in use and verified the scanned ballots matched the expected results. They matched 100% of the time. The scanners are sealed after testing. During the election, bipartisan election officers track check-in and vote totals. After the election, Virginia runs an audit of all 133 counties and cities to verify the results. Rigorous testing, state requirements and experienced professionals all make sure our ballot scanners work correctly.
“Do the voter rolls have lots of noncitizens? Are they voting?” No. We complete more than 100,000 updates to the voter rolls and registration mailings each year. These updates are most commonly due to people moving. We examined voters canceled for their citizen status and found the number of voters canceled for this reason was typically only 10 to 15 voters per month out of 330,000 voters. The reason these voters’ status was set to “noncitizen” is because they failed to check a box on a poorly designed Department of Motor Vehicles form, not because they were known illegal or residential aliens. “Is mail voting a secure process?” Yes. Any ballot cast has a one-to-one relationship with a voter regardless of the voting method. If you vote by mail, your ballot is checked in just like when you go to an early voting site or an Election Day polling place.
You can only get a mail ballot if you request one, and it is only sent to your address. Once a voter casts their ballot, they cannot vote again. The system is designed to prevent fraud and abuse. All mail voters in Prince William County can track their ballot online with BallotTrax, a free service that enables them to follow their ballot at every step. I encourage voters to cast their ballots with confidence knowing a team of three bipartisan Electoral Board members, 40-plus nonpartisan staff and more than 1,000 bipartisan election officers do the diligent work of executing a fair election with many voting options. If you have questions or need help, please rely on official information at pwcvotes.org or call us at 703792-6470. Our team is dedicated to upholding the law and to helping you!

OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Project 2025 would devastate public education
The planned PW Digital Gateway should proceed
One aspect of Project 2025, The Heritage Foundation’s plan for the next conservative president, that keeps me up at night is the plan for public education. It defunds and privatizes public education through vouchers and charter schools, rerouting taxpayer and federal dollars to private schools, many of which are Christian schools. Where will the funding come from to maintain the public schools? According to Education Week: The U.S. Department of Education would be eliminated. Title I, the $18 billion federal fund that supports low-income students, would disappear in a decade. Federal special education funds would flow to school districts as block grants with no strings attached. The federal government’s ability to enforce civil rights laws in schools would be scaled back. The Department of Education’s central mission is “to serve students by promoting educational excellence,
For over four decades taxpayers have been subsidizing the expansion of the western end of Prince William County. Roads, schools, firehouses, police, parks, trails etc., most of which are of little benefit to the taxpayers on the eastern end. Year after year, their pockets were picked by high taxes because the county’s commercialto-residential tax base ratio was so anemic. Finally, taxpayers caught a break with the advent of data centers. These high value enterprises are clean and require very little in services, thereby, providing a huge revenue reward, which will alleviate the burden on residential tax payers. Many citizens worked long and hard to get one such project approved that would have an enormous positive revenue impact. The Digital Gateway data center project was debated seemingly endlessly at planning commission hearings, Prince William
equal access and student achievement.” If the plan is enacted, none of these will be realized through public education. It also calls for eliminating teachers’ ability to organize, an overhaul of the U.S. Department of Education’s curriculum to align with extremist viewpoints and a rollback of student debt relief efforts. Students at schools receiving federal funds will be required to complete the military entrance exam, with the stated goal of improving recruiters’ access to secondary schools as a solution to recruitment and retention deficits. I’m losing sleep imagining a country with an underclass of poorly educated people with fewer options to move out of poverty and contribute meaningfully to society. Concerned? Vote for Democrats this November! – Linda David, Gainesville
Sudley corridor is the wrong place for 3 100-foot-tall data centers On June 26, the planning commission voted to deny the awful Ashton data center proposal. Regardless, it was scheduled for a public hearing before the Prince William Board of County Supervisors on Oct. 22, but Amazon requested it be deferred. Amazon realized this dog desperately needed a public relations makeover. So, it kicked in $25,000 to a clumsy campaign called “Virginia Connects,” attempting to convince everyone to ignore their senses and abandon their common sense. Amazon has been on a deceptive
charm offensive lately, contributing to a Fourth of July parade, a back-to-school event and the Manassas Ballet. All so you might forget they’re trying to ruin your neighborhood. Amazon had proposed three 110-foot-tall buildings, comprising nearly 1.1 million square feet on 52 acres, sandwiched between three schools and a townhome development, next to Manassas Mall. Amazon also requested noise ordinance waivers and proposed a 75-foot-tall electrical substation adjacent to Ellis Elementary School. What’s not to hate? Citizens must insist that the Board
of County Supervisors stop big tech’s callous plundering of our communities. The board should articulate a positive vision for the commercial Sudley Road corridor rather than allow the data center industry to sabotage any hope. Although the project is temporarily on hold, area residents should be wary of any attempt by Amazon to dress it up, sprinkle a little money around and resurrect it with another bogus “Virginia Connects” PR campaign. Citizens know a snow job when they see one. I guess the snow is just a little early this year.
hours of our time working tirelessly at the election. During the registration process, individuals provide documentation that they are eligible, and they are put on the official rolls of their precinct. All officials have to check that they are on the eligibility list when they come to vote. If not, they are given a provisional ballot attached to documentation that assures their eligibility. There is extremely little fraudulent voting in Virginia or the U.S., according to U.S. News & World Report, Reuters, the conservative Heritage Foundation and many other sources. “Research has

Regarding the planned PW Digital Gateway: No thanks
been consistent over time that voter fraud is infinitesimally rare and almost never occurs on a scale that would affect an election outcome,” said Alice Clapman, senior counsel for voting rights at the Brennan Center for Justice. Each individual citizen has the right to vote, and this is an important part of our Constitution. It makes me ask, ‘What are you so afraid of, Governor Younkin, that you would deliberately try to block people from voting, even if they are eligible?’
I write in response to a recent letter regarding the Prince William Digital Gateway and that the time is now to forge ahead. While the Prince William County Board of County Supervisors are duly elected, they are not directly representative of the communities who have had to stomach the digital gateway, including its construction. Most supervisors were fed a bill of goods that resulted in little economic growth. I have seen no tax relief, only lost land, congestion, endless construction, deteriorating infrastructure and hideous buildings. Rather, politicians and developers have received campaign donations and tax breaks, all at the expense of working families who were sold the same bill of goods by representatives on the other side of the county. While the expansion of nuclear energy is positive, it does not outweigh losing fertile farmland and compromising our national and food security, all so the rich can get richer. Construction ends, companies move, buildings will empty, and technologies will change. And in a decade, when all of the benefits folks like to tout do not occur, no one will be around to be held accountable. Instead, impacted communities will be concrete wastelands. No thanks.

Virginia is wrong to remove voters within 90 days of an election It’s a sad and discouraging moment to see our Virginia governor purging voters from the rolls. He has done so within 90 days of the election, which violates the National Voter Registration Act. A Virginia county election official said that they looked at dozens of voters who had been purged under the program’s protocols and found that many of them had repeatedly affirmed their citizenship and eligibility. As an election official in Fauquier County, I want every eligible voter to be able to vote. We are trained in screening each voter and spend 15
Board of County Supervisors’ hearings, in this forum, and in others as well. Finally, last fall the supervisors approved the project, benefiting all taxpayers in the county. But, when I checked on the progress, I was dismayed to learn it was held up by a lawsuit. It’s time for the no-growthers and rural crescent folks to quit holding up commercial development in the county for the sake of country views. The folks who have bought land in Prince William County don’t support that notion at all. Unlike surrounding counties where there are vast tracks of undeveloped land dedicated to conservation easements, in Prince William County barely 1% is so dedicated. It is time to move forward and start reaping the benefits.

LIFESTYLES LOCAL WINERY
Arterra Wines takes a natural approach Tucked in the trees, winery, art shop aim for authenticity by D ayna S mith Contributing Writer
A winery set in a forest is an oddity. A wine tasting room with an art gallery and studio is out of the norm. And a winemaker who surmised he was doing something wrong, when everyone else told him he was doing everything right, is a contrarian — or perhaps a visionary. That tendency to question orthodoxy — to look at different ways of doing things — is what sets Jason Murray and Arterra Wines apart in the ever-expanding world of Virginia wine. Set in a clearing amidst towering trees, the winery and adjacent vineyard blend into the natural environment, rather than redefine it. Murray and his wife, artist Sandy Gray-Murray chose the name Arterra — art of the land — as a reflection of the approach they take to their respective endeavors. Gray-Murray, in her studio Hawkmoth Arts, creates pieces derivative of the local landscape and vineyard. Murray, in the winery, strives to capture the purest expression of land and grape. In his first three years, when he was making wine in Northern Virginia for others, Murray was using commercial yeast, new oak barrels and adding sulfites. But after that third year, two things hit him at once and led him to change course. He was presenting his wines at winemaker meetings when suddenly the other winemakers started saying, “Whoa, these are good wines,” but he realized people were saying that because his wines started to taste like everyone else’s wines. It seemed the benchmark for quality was the ability to standardize or homogenize the wine. There had to be more to it, Murray thought, noticing there were characteristics in the grapes that were not showing up in the wine. He looked at the practices employed by acclaimed wine-

The resulting wines were complex and much more interesting, he discovered. “There’s a Catch 22 with Virginia and other emerging wine regions where people will describe it as awesome because you can’t tell the difference between it and California or French or Australian
wine,” Murray said. “But my thinking is … what is the point of buying a Virginia wine if you could just buy the same wine with a California label at the grocery store and cheaper?” Over the next few years, with both Gray-Murray’s art and Murray’s wine gaining attention, they hatched a plan to build a winery and studio. They found a 75-acre mountain parcel north of Delaplane at an elevation of more than 800 feet.
He and Gray-Murray have one fulltime vineyard employee and several part-timers in the tasting room. “The great thing about Sandy’s art business is that it seems like any time there is a downturn on the wine sales, the art sales hold strong,” Murray said. With 17 vintages under his belt, Murray’s winemaking vision is clear: letting grapes evolve and ferment as they did before industrial wine-making; producing a “clean” wine with minimal intervention. The Murrays currently farm two vineyards, each about 8 and a half acres, Arterra Estate, and a satellite vineyard in Philomont, called Seven Oaks. They bottle 1,200 cases a year. Arterra Wines, on Leeds Manor Road in Delaplane, also houses Hawkmoth Arts and is open Thursday through Monday from 12 to 6 p.m. There is both outdoor seating among towering trees — fall is a great time to visit — as well as ample indoor seating. A tasting fee of $20 includes any five wines guided by knowledgeable staff. Reach Dayna Smith at news@fauquier.com

SPORTS BATTLEFIELD VS. GAINESVILLE FOOTBALL
A Ferrari named Calum O’Shea Bobcat QB shines in 29-6 rivalry win over Gainesville The gap continues to close rapidly between Gainesville High’s third-year varsity football program and its prestigious neighborhood rivals Battlefield and Patriot. But the Cardinals are not there yet. In the aftermath of Friday’s 29-6 road loss to Battlefield, Gainesville coach Daniel Bruton soberly assessed the truth. “Battlefield’s a good ball team. That’s why they’re 40-0 the last four regular seasons. They’re the king of the hill right now,” Bruton said of the 7-0 Bobcats. For much of the first quarter, the Cardinals (5-2) showed they’re a good ball team too, flashing high-end talent on offense and defense. Gainesville impressively picked off two passes thrown by Bobcat star junior quarterback Calum O’Shea and bottled up another Battlefield staple, running back Sage Davis. Offensively, the Cardinals’ left-handed quarterback Colton Kilmer looked sharp, hitting tight end Greg Davidson and receiver Grayson Eisenhower on some nice throws. But the Bobcats had the X-factor in O’Shea, who punished the Cardinals with his lethal legs, sprinting relentlessly to the edges and then turning up field, or gashing Gainesville on scrambles up the middle. O’Shea finished with 18 carries for 143 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw a TD pass as Battlefield showed why it’s ranked No. 2 in Class 6 Region B. Bruton said the raw speed the 6-foot, 190-pound O’Shea possesses, and his elusiveness, is almost impossible to prepare for. “The kid runs a 10.8 100 and a 4.4 40,” said Bruton. “You got to contain him; that’s hard to do. You’re not going to stop guys like him or No. 2 (running back Jackson McCarter) from Patriot, so you just hope to contain him.”

Dynamic quarterback Calum O’Shea has helped Battlefield open 7-0 and emerge as Class 6 state championship contender. O’Shea led the Bobcats to a touchdown on the game’s opening drive, scoring on an 8-yard run, and Jacob Korobow’s extra point made it 7-0. “My line cleared a big hole for me. Sage did a good play fake on the back end, and I was able to walk it in,” O’Shea said. Asked about his ability to race through and around defenders, O’Shea said, “I kind of size a guy up, read my blocks. The offensive line is a big part of everything we do. All the credit to them and the receivers.” But Gainesville showed its mettle as Dell Akpaloo and David Howe snagged O’Shea’s first two interceptions of the year, keeping the game tight. “The first one, I forced it, a bad read. The second one, Alex (Molina) was open, and I floated the ball. Those two were totally on me,” O’Shea said. But Gainesville couldn’t dent Battlefield’s tough defense. Kilmer threw a costly interception in the end zone and Battlefield’s Korobow added a 20-yard
field goal with no time left in the first half for a 10-0 lead. The Bobcats went ahead 17-0 on O’Shea’s 20-yard pass to Brandon Murray on fourth down early in the third quarter. Davis made it 23-0 on an 11yard TD run early in the fourth. After a slow start, Davis finished with 126 yards on 15 carries, almost matching O’Shea’s 143 rushing yards. “We feel like we have a 1-2 (running) punch,” said Battlefield coach Greg Hatfield. “In the second half, Sage really took off and did a great job with some tough inside runs.” Gainesville averted the shutout on Kilmer’s 10-yard TD pass to Isiah Dougan. O’Shea added a 5-yard TD run to close the scoring. Gainesville, which lost to Patriot 3520 the previous week, is 0-6 against Battlefield and Patriot (6-1, No. 4 in region) since Gainesville began playing varsity football in 2022. Still, Hatfield sees how fast the Car-
dinals are developing. “We knew going in that Gainesville was much, much improved from last year. They’re big and strong up front, a competitive athletic team. They are going to be tough in the playoffs,” the fourth-year Bobcat coach said. Said Bruton, “I’m proud of our kids. They’ve come a long way since we started this program. This is our first fouryear class.” Battlefield hasn’t lost since last season’s 50-7 defeat to two-time Class 6 state champion Freedom (Woodbridge) in the region championship. With Freedom no longer a force, Battlefield is leading the charge to become the third straight Prince William County team to win Virginia’s coveted Class 6 state crown. “The goal here is states or bust,” said O’Shea. “That’s it. You don’t look past a game,” but if the Bobcats don’t make it to the state semifinals, “I feel like the season, especially for me, will be a disappointment.”

REAL ESTATE / BUSINESS FROM A REALTOR
Comparing national home sales to our region by J essica S aadeh Long & Foster - Warrenton
If you read or watch the national news, there will likely be a mention of the real estate market and how it’s doing. While it can be helpful to get a glimpse of how the market is doing across the country, it’s important to remember that the data covers a huge footprint. To get a clearer view, it’s good to break the data down to the region that is most relevant to where you live. According to the National Association of Realtors®, existing home sales nationwide were down 4.2% in August compared to last year. The median existing home sales price rose by 3.1% to $416,700, and total housing inventory is up 22.7%. Nationally, the months of supply, or the amount of time it would take for all

available homes to be sold at the current sales price, is up to 4.2 months — so, we are seeing a lot more available houses than were on the market last year. Though prices have continued to trend marginally higher, if interest rates dip
a bit, there could be more options for buyers that have wanted to buy but have been unable. Virginia Realtors’ data shows that the number of home sales in August this year remained about the same as last year. However, rising prices contributed to a higher total dollar amount in existing home sales, up by 2.4%. The average sales price for our state is $415,000. Virginia also saw a rise in active listings in August across the state, with an increase of 23.1% over last year. In Fauquier County, data from the Greater Piedmont Association of Realtors ® — which covers Fauquier County, Culpeper, Madison and Rappahannock counties — shows that, in August, our region was up by 19% over last year in closed and pending sales. Our home prices stayed relatively consistent when compared to last year, and new and active listings were up by 1%.

Homes that are listed for sale in our region take an average of 32 days to sell, which is up 26% from August 2023. Data specifically for Fauquier County shows that homes for sale took an average of 18 days to go under contract. In Rappahannock, the average days on market was 227. Even in the same region, data can vary wildly.

Shoppers line up for new Barnes & Noble Staff Report
Less than a year after long lines of book fans crowded Barnes & Noble’s former store in Manassas, the book dealer’s new store at the Bull Run shopping center opened. Once again, the line stretched out the door. “We are so pleased to return to Manassas in time for the holiday season,” said James Daunt, CEO of Barnes & Noble, in a statement. “When we vacated our previous Sudley Road location earlier this year, it was a top priority to find a new home in this community. Now, it is our great pleasure to open this beautiful new Barnes & Noble just five minutes away from where we spent the last 25 years.” New York Times best-selling author Maggie Stiefvater cut the ribbon on the new store Wednesday, Oct 16 and stayed to sign books, according to a Barnes & Noble news release. The new Barnes & Noble is in Bull

Shoppers lined up outside the new Barnes & Noble bookstore on Oct. 16, its opening day at the Bull Run shopping center in Manassas. Run Plaza at 10776 Sudley Manor Drive in Manassas, in a space formerly occupied by Dollar Tree. The store is next to GNC and near DICK’s Sporting Goods. The store is one of 50 Barnes & Noble
plans to open this year around the country. In 2023, Barnes & Noble opened more new bookstores in a single year than it had during the entire decade between 2009 and 2019, the release said.
Bookstores took a hit after Amazon and other online booksellers made their debut, but Associated Press reports that membership in the American Booksellers Association has been rising. Membership now stands at 2,433, an increase of more than 200 in the past year and nearly double the number in 2016. The Manassas location is one of nine new Barnes & Noble bookstores set to open in October; other new locations are in Florida, Illinois, Missouri, New York, Virginia, South Carolina, Texas and Washington D.C. “I’m so happy to play a role in bringing Barnes & Noble back to Manassas in a brand-new way,” store manager Shawn Marshall, a B&N bookseller for more than 20 years, said in a statement. “We’re so excited by the enthusiasm of readers in this community; our longtime customers and local schools and can’t wait to officially open our doors.” For more information about upcoming events at the new bookstore, follow @bnmanassas on social media.

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. 23-03-0969P. 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 https://www.floodmaps.fem a.gov/fhm/BFE_Status/bfe_main.asp , or call the FEMA Mapping and Insurance eXchange (FMIX) toll free at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627).
