Advice: Detoxify from lyme disease

By Sherri Hudson, CT Family Health Thermal Imaging

All individuals with, or who have had, Lyme disease should detoxify. Understanding that Lyme bacteria (spirochetes) can create a shield called biofilm to protect themselves, these bacteria are shielded from many medications.

The biofilm can also block your immune system from finding the bacteria. This is how the biofilm is just like a safe house that protects the bacteria from being killed by drugs or your immune system. When you go off medications, they can re-emerge and create your symptoms all over again. Not only do Lyme bacteria create biofilms, so do other bugs in your system.

Other bacteria like staphylococcus (staph) and streptococcus (strep) can also create biofilms, which Lyme can hide in.

According to Microbial Biofilms

by Ghannoum and O’Toole, different bacteria like staph and strep also create biofilm shields.

When different bacteria congregate under a biofilm, they can share information with each other. Underneath a biofilm shield, different species of bacteria can swap genetic information. In Microbial Biofilms, they cite studies, which estimate that the Lyme bacteria have received one out of thousand genes from other species.

Gene exchange happens quite frequently among different bacteria in a biofilm. This exchange may lead to a dangerous mutated

form of the Lyme bacteria. Unfortunately, Lyme bacteria may obtain drug resistant genes from other bacteria. If Lyme bacteria were to obtain resistance to antibiotics, this could create a drug- resistant monster.

Given that Lyme bacteria reproduce quickly, it would only take a few generations for a drug resistant strain of Lyme bacteria

to populate your system. Drugresistant Lyme bacteria may be an explanation for why it can survive despite years of treatment with multiple antibiotics.

Once the Lyme bacteria are killed, one must help the body remove the endotoxins that spirochetes release in the body once they’re killed.

A second try for solar power. Are our low electric rates in jeopardy?

By Timothy P. Ratigan Warren & Frederick County Report Front Royal is famous for its proximity to the Shenandoah National Park, for its fall foliage, dramatic town council meetings and work sessions. Oh, and let’s not forget, Front Royal is also famous for having the lowest electric rates for residences in the state of Virginia.

It may be hard to believe that al-

most five years ago this newspaper reported the story about confidential information being leaked to a rival newspaper regarding the proposed solar farm at the Avtex site.

Some residents still remember the players of this local town scandal.

They were former councilmen Chris Holloway, Carson Lauder, and Tom Sayre. At the end of this scandal we would see a town manager relieved of his duties, two councilmen voted

out of council, and a third running around a conference table to avoid being served with official court papers. And who can forget thenCouncilman Hollis Tharpe demanding the arrest of the court server?

Many thought after the fallout of that scandal that Front Royal had seen its dream of owning a Solar Farm fade into the sunset. Now, five years later and with a new Council and town manager, the prospect of owning a

Solar Farm is at the forefront again.

On July 13, the Front Royal Town Council voted to affirm by a 5-0 vote on its first reading, an ordinance to approve and execute a power sales contract with American Municipal Power, Inc. (AMP), as well as an Interconnection Agreement with AMP and Solar Project Lease Agreement with AMP for the Solar Phase II Project at 3,000 kilowatts. Council was also requested to consider granting

the Solar Project Lease Agreement with AMP for a term of five years, with the option of renewal for additional five year terms.

Joseph Waltz, Director of Energy Resources for Front Royal, made his presentation to the council at a work session previous to the July 13th meeting. He informed the council that AMP presented its list of communities in the running for hosting one of its solar facilities and that

Front Royal came in towards the top of that list. The Solar Farm would be installed on a 15-acre site near the town’s wastewater treatment plant. “In order to help maximize savings, all sites will be rolled into one project and that is really good for us. It also diversifies our risk, if we’re having a bad weather day such as rain or

overcast here in Front Royal versus in Ohio or Pennsylvania or Michigan, where these will be located in four different states,� Waltz said.

According to Waltz, solar energy is more environmentally sound than more fossil fuel dependent power, such as coal or natural gas, but it also is more expensive.

This caught my attention and I wanted to investigate this myself.

Is solar power more expensive than

coal and natural gas fired plants? I went to an online source.

I found one in McKinsey and Company, a global firm with more than 9,000 consultants, nearly 2,000 research and information professionals, and with offices in more than 60 countries. And 35 percent of their client base is in the Americas. They have released several reports on fossil fuels and renewable energy comparisons.

It is a far more cost-competitive power source today than it was in the mid-2000s, when installations and manufacturing were taking off with subsidies were generous, and investors were piling in. Consumption continued rising even as the MAC Global Solar Energy Index fell by 50 percent between 2011 and the end of 2013, a period when dozens of solar companies went bankrupt, shut down, or changed hands at fire-sale prices. “Financing, customer acquisition, regulatory incentives, and approvals collectively represent about half the expense of installing residential systems in the United States. Our research suggests that as they become cheaper, the overall costs to consumers are poised to fall to $2.30 by 2015 and to $1.60 by 2020. These cost reductions will put solar within striking distance, in economic terms, of new construction for traditional power-generation technologies, such as coal, natural gas, and nuclear energy. That’s true not just for residential and commercial segments, where it is already cost competitive in many (though not all) geographies, but also, eventually, for industrial and wholesale markets.�

But is there a source that proves that solar power is more expensive than traditional fossil fueled fired power plants? I looked and found that solar power generating is on the rise and the cost is falling. However, it will still have a long way to go if it hopes to outpace or take the place of coal or natural gas powered plants.

What does this mean for Front Royal and its continuing battle for solar energy? And will this jeopardize Front Royal’s reputation of having the lowest electric rates in the Virginia?

According to Waltz, the town currently pays about $71 to generate a megawatt of power. That would go up to approximately $82 with the solar project and eventually drop off at

$76. However, by 2040, the cost of a megawatt would go back up to about $101 factoring in replacement costs for panels and inverters.

Waltz said that it is important to remember that inverters are a 10year replacement item and panels are 20-25. He also went on to say that keeping all the power “behind the meter� would go a long way toward keeping the town’s cost down by cutting transmission cost and reducing the reliance on the outside market.

Waltz also pointed out that transmission costs make up about $15 of the current $71 cost per megawatt and said that power providers actually encourage municipalities that generate power to stay “behind the meter� because it reduces their burden.

In April of 2014, AMP recommended the town build an array with a 2,500-megawatt capacity. Then in October, it bumped up that recommendation to 4,460 megawatts.

However, they advised council that a 3,000-megawatt facility would be best. “My recommendation is a safe bet, in my opinion,� Waltz said.

Waltz also let the council know that the town was under the gun and that AMP would like the town to make a decision on the project and its associated sales contracted by July 31. The next step would be a lease agreement on the land.

Councilman Eugene R. Tewalt expressed concerns about the maintenance of the property. Waltz replied to Tewalt’s concerns that 15 acres to mow is a lot to maintain. He also added that the town would be responsible for brushing off the panels during snowstorms as well.

So the question is on some people’s minds. Is it worth it? Will it raise the cost of electric rates in Front Royal?

And will we finally succeed in getting a solar farm of our own? Only one more hurdle to pass. The second reading discussions and a vote. Yes or no. – tim@areaguides.com

Fireman’s relish makes it annual (hot) return to Warren County

By Teresa Brumback Warren & Frederick County Report

Relish the moment before it’s gone.

The pints of the famous homemade yellow relish sold out on July 17, the eve before the last day of the annual carnival held by the Front Royal Fire and Rescue Volunteer Fire Department July 8-18.

The relish is a more than 50-yearold mainstay for the Fire Department, its chief fundraiser next to bingo, pulling in about half the carnival’s proceeds which were $32,000 last year, according to Fire Department President Joe Starcher, who

didn’t have the figures for this year’s relish sales. While carnival ride sales were down, attendance at the Cook Building was way up where firefighters and rescue personnel slammed up hot dogs and hamburgers with or without relish, along with pints of the tangy stuff at $4 each.

He balks at a plea to share the department’s age-old recipe. “Blah! I couldn’t tell you, no, because people come from all over to get it” as far away as Pennsylvania and Ohio, he says.

The relish is the department’s pride and joy, and Starcher shudders to think what the carnival would be without it. “Relish is our main thing

at the carnival,” he says, with most people wanting it piled atop hot dogs and others wanting it on hamburgers. A few put it on French fries.

He takes about six pints home for himself, keeps it in the fridge and uses it year round. “It gets better as it ages,” he claims.

The recipe started, he explains “by a bunch of firemen who sat around and threw stuff together.”

They use sterile cement mixers that have never been used for cement to mix up the ingredients, namely cabbage, onion, mustard, cayenne, black pepper, salt, vinegar and horserad-

ish.

They made 420 gallons this year.

Three batches are made with two commercial grinders. You added this and that; let it churn and pour it into a sterile barrel and let it ferment for 30 days. Then we pint it up and sell it,” he explains.

The relish making involves 20-30 firefighter and rescue volunteers over two days of work.

Each batch is different and tasted for quality and the level of heat. “It was a little warm but we sold out. Everybody loves it,” Starcher says.

The carnival and relish are re-

ADayatClem’sGarage

sponsible for 30 percent of the department’s proceeds with 70 percent from bingo. It relies on these proceeds to fund its operations and equipment and pay some paid staff.

Half of its budget is mostly derived from county fire and rescue with a small portion from the town. The other half “is what we raise,” he says.

Equipment is expensive. “If we blow a motor it’s $15,000 to $20,000.

Tires are $2,000 to $3,000 apiece.”

The relish is an annual phenomenon. Each year it tastes a little different. Some years it’s hotter than others, just like with the weather.

Warren County’s most famous relish has been a big part of the fireman’s Carnival (and the department’s fundraising efforts) for more than a half century. Like wine, each year’s batch is different.

Council moves forward on Front Royal Enterprise Zone and more

By Timothy P. Ratigan Warren & Frederick County Report

On Monday, July 13, the Front Royal Town Council met with a full agenda ahead of them.

Mayor Timothy Darr called the meeting to order and led the council and residents in the Pledge of Allegiance and then held a moment of silence.

After the roll call, (Vice Mayor Tharpe was absent) and approval of the minutes of the June 22 Town Council meeting, receipt of petitions from the public, (there were none) Town Manager Steve Burke reported on upcoming events in Front Royal.

The Front Royal Fire Department will hold their annual Firemen’s Parade on Wednesday July 15, beginning at 4:30 p.m. with road closures to affect Stonewall Drive, Commerce Ave. and 8th. July 16th the firemen

will hold their annual fireworks display just after dark.

Burke also announced that the Planning Department has created a Zoning Violation Brochure. This brochure is available at the planning office and online. It provides an explanation of the various code violations and the process to resolve them. He also informed the citizens that the “Gazebo” music events will continue on through the month of July.

He mentioned that the Gazebo will be offering “Eighties” movie nights starting at 8:00 p.m. These movie events will start on the 6th of August and continue every Thursday through September 24th. The following movies will be shown: Top Gun; The Three Amigos; Ghostbusters; Ferris Bueller’s Day Off; Honey I Shrunk the Kids; Raiders of the Lost Ark; and The Goonies.

Burke thanked the sponsors of the event: Joseph F. Silek, Jr. PC; Warren County EDA; Edward Jones; Culligan Water; Marlow Motors; CBM Mortgage; Air Serve (HVAC); and Team Waller (Weichart Realtors).

Mayor Darr added thanks to Jeremy Camp of the Planning Commission for the meeting on the Community Block Grant that was held the previous week.

“It is another tool in our box.

Hopefully with the assistance of the Northern Shenandoah Valley Re-

gional Commission we can turn this into a positive thing. There is always the opportunity for us to improve ourselves, not only as a community but as a business community. When we can work with the businesses in town and the local organizations, I feel that is always a plus,” he said.

The mayor brought attention to the structure fire at the Front Royal V.F.W. (Veterans of Foreign Wars) building that took place on the afternoon of July 11th and he thanked all Front Royal and county fire departments including ones from outside the county, such as the Frederick County Fire Department, who assisted in battling the blaze. He also thanked the town’s electric department and police for their assistance.

Council voted on first readings of four public hearings. The first was an ordinance to amend town code, and pertained to banner poles located on North Royal Ave and John Marshall Highway and would be effective upon passage, as presented. This amendment deals with the increase of metal grommets and wind flaps that would be required in the banners.

Mayor Darr questioned the town manager about organizations that

have used the banners in the past. He asked if those organizations would be able to use the current banners for a period of time until they needed to be replaced.

Burke replied that those organizations who already have permits

for banners would able to use their current banners for the remainder of this year but would be required to purchase new ones next year.

The vote on the first reading of the Amendment passed with a 5-0 vote.

This ordinance pertains to minimum BPOL fee and failure to obtain a

proper license. If approved, a minimum fee of $10.00 will be established for those obtaining a BPOL. The minimum fee would not apply to those who qualify for an exemption.

Councilman Bret Hrbek asked for

clarification on which organizations would be considered exempt from the BPOL. Town Manager Burke stated that those organizations that have 501c3 tax exempt status from the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) would be considered exempt. The ordinance to amend the town code pertaining to BPOL on its first reading passed on a 4-1 vote with Hrbek voting against.

cilmen voiced their support. “I would like to make a point to congratulate our staff. We’ve been working on solar since 2008 when we tried to have the Royal Phoenix Site turned into a Solar Field. That was when AMP really started to look at Front Royal. I am very excited that we are finally going to be able to have a solar field and that we are going to be able to bring solar into our inventory of power. Congratulations to

our staff in making sure that solar didn’t die in 2010,� Hrbek said.

Councilman Bebhinn Egger echoed Hrbek’s comments. The vote was taken after the first reading and passed on a 5-0 vote.

The Mayor opened the public hearing and one resident spoke.

Craig Laird, business owner and president of Front Royal Independent Business Alliance (FRIBA), spoke in front of the council.

Laird expressed concerns that even

though the incentives offered to businesses in the “Front Royal Enterprise Zones” would bring jobs to the community initially, when the incentives run out those jobs might leave the community.

He also expressed concerns that the types of businesses that are being targeted have to provide jobs for 25 or more people each.

“We already have a business coming such as the ITFederal, and we

Read full issues FREE on www.WarrenCountyVA.com & www.FrederickCounty.com are offering incentives that may not be warranted. Why do we offer extra incentives when we already have things coming? If they build it they will come?” he asked.

He also pointed out that the small businesses pay the taxes that run government, and said, “It is unfair to give these incentives to the bigger guys who are displacing our smaller businesses. If there is 20,000 square feet of retail space in this area, those

will not be filled with mom and pop businesses. They will be filled with those 25 employees or higher businesses which are like those chain stores and the stores you see in the malls. Those displace the smaller businesses that give the character to our community.”

Laird also asked, “Is the goal to bring these businesses into Front Royal to displace the smaller businesses? For every dollar given to those businesses in the Enterprise Zones will a dollar be given to improve our downtown businesses?

When we add all the incentives together are we really saving money or are we just moving money around that then harms the local economy and the smaller businesses?”

He closed his comments by requesting that the connector road be completed before discussing or planning for these types of incentives.

“If you don’t build that connector road you are going to cut off the downtown from the other side of town. People will just go up Shenandoah Ave and will not go to the downtown area where you are seeking to revitalize,” he said.

Councilman Egger expressed concerns as well.

“My main concern is that the town might not be adequately protected.

There might be situations that arise where a business might come in and reap some of the benefits of the incentives and then the town would be left without reaping any long term benefits if that business were to leave after five years,” she said.

She requested assistance from the Town Attorney Doug Napier, but was still unsure whether the town would have the protections it needed if offered the incentives laid out in the Enterprise Zone.

“We need to make sure we are prudent as we go forward with this. Not to seem unfriendly to businesses, but we need to be prudent to take care of the town and all the taxpayers that we represent,” she said.

ment regarding the connector road from the Enterprise Zone to Main Street.

“We need to move quickly on the connector road so we can have that Main Street downtown connection to this new development that we are hoping to materialize soon than later.

This could be an extension of Main Street,” he said. The vote was taken and passed 4-1 with Egger voting against.

Several Council Approval items were discussed and voted on as well.

Next on the agenda was a Resolution for the declaration of a Front Royal Enterprise zone. The vote was taken for the resolution and passed 5-0.

This was followed by Council authorization to advertise for a public hearing to receive public input on vacating a town right-of-way. This involves a 6,346 square foot portion of South Fork Drive public right-ofway located at the intersection of Kesler Road in the North Magisterial District of the Town. The Resolution passed on a 5-0 vote.

The second budget amendment up for a vote was the amendment in the amount of $348,000 to accept a bid from LCW, Lantz Construction in Winchester for renovation construction for the Department of Energy Services warehouse building located at 1100 Manassas Avenue. That will accommodate office and warehouse

space. With no discussion from the Council a vote was taken and the Amendment passed with a 5-0 vote.

The final item up before the council was the approval for the Main Street Canopy Lighting Project. Council was requested to approve a bid from Dan Hotek, President/Structural Engineer of Engineering Techniques in an amount not to exceed $6,000 for engineering services related to the Main Street Canopy Lighting Project.

Councilman Eugene Tewalt asked for clarification on whether or not

the money used for the completion of the project was going to be donated back to the town in some fashion.

Town Manager Burke replied that the town would be asking for donations from the downtown businesses for the project and would be hoping to receive as much as the town could donate/offer to offset the cost of the project.

After discussion the vote was taken and passed with 5-0 vote. This was the final item to be brought before the council and the mayor adjourned the meeting.

Tucked away in the Crooked Run Shopping Center along US 522 north of Front Royal, flanked by Target as its anchor store, Ledo hails as the only pizza parlor in Warren County north of the Twin Bridges over the Shenandoah River. Visibly shy of customers on many a weekday night, Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seems to lag behind the pack of popular eateries, delivery and/ or take-out places including Melting Pot, Pizza Hut, Foxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pizza Den, Anthonyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Papa Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Dominos, Castigliaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, and the latest, Little Caesarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. At Melting Pot, the parking lot is jammed and customers must wait in lines to be seated on weekends.

Mailley isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worried about what his pizza neighbors are doing. There are enough pizza lovers in the area to keep everyone humming, as he notes â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t open to put anyone out of business.â&#x20AC;?

He stands by his product and just wants people to know that Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is there. He calls it a family-style res-

taurant and take-out place with seating for 78 including 11 comfy booths.

Catering is available with delivery and set-up options, but not personnel to serve the food. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is up there with the best.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a different pizza experience. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve eaten a lot of it since we opened in 2008, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not tired of it. I find that amazing.â&#x20AC;?

After working in his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s produce business, Mailley was on his way home and stopped in to eat at a Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in Ranson, WV. He fell in love with the pizza and the rest is history.

He canceled plans to open an Italian ice shop and instead plunged forward with plans for the pizza restaurants

in Front Royal.

What sets Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pizza apart, according to Mailley, is the cheese, a smoked provolone, which is golden brown and gooey when it appears from the oven. It has a nice, chewy texture, and he points out, â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is no fake cheese,â&#x20AC;? he adds. The sauce, made partly inhouse, according to Mailley, is sweet and hearty.

The crust is thin and crispy on the outside, tender inside. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We make our dough fresh,â&#x20AC;? he says, adding itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assembled and hand-rolled every two hours.

The recipe is a secret, of course but what makes the pizzas and its subs and Italian entrees stand out is that all the ingredients and toppings are fresh. You can have pizza here and somewhere else the next day. I just think ours is the best pizza but I like pizza altogether.â&#x20AC;?

Owing to its motto, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ledo pizza never cuts corners,â&#x20AC;? the pizzas are always square. Mailley maintains that mathematically it translates to more pizza per square inch. A personal size pizza is 8-inch at $6.39, or $9.49 for 14-inch, and $14.79 for an 18-inch. Toppings range from 75 cents to $1.75. Its signature thicksliced pepperoni is the best seller.

Mailleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favorite, the Hawaiian, has become my favorite pizza, too, with its diced smoked pink ham that is slightly charred on the edges, balanced by the sweetness of the pineapple and tomato sauce. A purist at heart, I have always enjoyed just a cheese pizza, but on occasion Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been known to dabble in toppings.

The pizzas include a Pizza Margherita with fresh melted, all-natural mozzarella and tomato sauce, garnished with fresh basil and aged Parmesan.

The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Veg-Outâ&#x20AC;? features Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sauce topped lightly with goat cheese, spinach, tomatoes, onions, fresh basil and black olives. Also featured is

a gluten-free pizza, the menu noting that â&#x20AC;&#x153;it is not intended for customers with a severe allergy to gluten.â&#x20AC;?

The diverse menu continues with appetizers, subs, soups, salads, Italian entrees, beer and wine, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;mocktailsâ&#x20AC;? including my personal favorite, a mango mint mania, with mango, fresh mint leaves and lemonade at just $2.79.

Most people are full by the time dessert time rolls around, the franchisee explains, so Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s has just two desserts: a Tower of Temptation with two brownies, two squares of vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce for $6.49, and a dense carrot cake slice for $3.99.

The menu changes from time to time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We add and subtract items about every four months,â&#x20AC;? Mailley says.

The regulars at Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s include Pam Henry-Sievert, a devoted mother and wife and pizza afficianado from Bentonville. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The service is quick; the waitresses are pleasant and friendly, and you get a good bang for your buck. We take the family there, and my girls night out group, the Pink Flamingos, have been known to flock there.â&#x20AC;?

In the DC area, Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is well-established, with Bob Beall having opened its flagship restaurant in 1955 in Adelphia, MD, to hungry University of Maryland crowds from College

Park nearby. Still a landmark for the university students and professors, Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s has most of its 100-plus stores located in the Washington metro area, according to Mailley. Many of the establishmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s customers in and around Front Royal are the same people who have been going to Ledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other restaurants close to where they lived in Northern Virginia and elsewhere before moving to Front Royal, he notes.

Mailley opened the Front Royal restaurant when a residential building boom was expected with a neighboring golf course north of the shopping center. However, when the economy fizzled out, that did not happen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously we expected more building out thereâ&#x20AC;? on 522, he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The economy as a whole disappoints me.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been slow to recover, but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think about it.â&#x20AC;?

He says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proud of the fact his business is doing fine and he has kept several employees, around five or six, since he opened.

Mailley is too busy with putting in long work weeks of 60-plus hours and available on standby from his home in Inwood, WV. Recently, he managed to take a rare vacation with his wife, a two-day jaunt to Ocean City, MD, where not surprisingly, he found himself eating his favorite food: pizza. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; brumback@areaguides.com

The Men of Asbury: ‘pitch perfect’ in the Valley

By Vicki Rudacille Davison

While a cappella singing has been around since the 15th century, it has been popularized in the last couple of decades with TV shows such as “The Sing-Off ”, the musical “Perfect Harmony” and the musical comedy “Pitch Perfect”. Not to be outdone but Front Royal has its own a cappella group called “The Men of Asbury”. “The Men of Asbury is made of local high school seniors Collin Finnell, Ben and Max Bieryla along

with Collins’ dad Bobby. Occasionally Collin accompanies the group on the guitar and Ben with percussion.

While these guys like all genres of music, their passion is contemporary Christian music and Southern Gospel like the Gaither Brothers. While the “Men of Asbury” is a relatively new group of performers, the group has known each other for several years.

Collin forged a friendship with Ben and Max while attending Ressie Jeffries Elementary School. The three

boys became even closer friends while in Cub Scout Troop 118 and later on Troop 52. As their friendship deepened so did their desire for music. Each of the boys play multiple instruments so Collin’s dad, Bobby formed a band. Bobby provided vocals while Collin, Ben and Max played their various instruments.

Bobby heard the boys sing one day and knew they had talent but had no success getting them to provide vocals until a church mission trip. After helping the folks of Oak Hill, WV with humanity projects, one of them asked the boys along with Bobby to lead in singing some hymns. Suddenly it became apparent to them that their voices harmonized well.

Collin, Ben and Max feel their music connects them to one another but also to their audience. It is very obvious that they enjoy what they are doing and take great pride in sharing that joy. Unlike most youth their age,

they can be found performing for local nursing homes, churches and recently a Relay for Life event. When asked what makes them unique, they said “Music is who we are and even though it may not be cool to sing the music we have chosen, it is what gives us pleasure. We feel we give our audience hope and happiness.”

Music is not only a huge part of their lives now but also in their future plans. This fall Collin will be attending Shenandoah University to major in music. Collin aspires to be involved in music ministry and teach guitar. Ben and Max will be attending the University of Hartford and Ben will major in Acoustical Engineering while Max plans to double major in Acoustical Engineering along with Musical Composition.

Collin, the son of Bobby Finnell and Lorie Teates Finnell and grandson of Dorothy Finnell all of Front Royal, is a senior at Skyline High School. Col-

lin is a member of the Asbury United Methodist Church in Warren County and recently was awarded Eagle Scout in Troop 52. Twins Ben and Max, sons of Mike and Lynn Bieryla of Front Royal, are also seniors at Skyline High School. Ben and Max are members of the Front Royal United Methodist Church and recently were awarded Eagle Scouts in Troop 52 as well.

The “Men of Asbury” are refreshing. On a recent performance at Hidden Springs Senior Living, a resident said, “Most young men your age are out riding around in cars not entertaining us old folks”. A visitor said “It warmed her heart to see young people doing such good things especially when the news often reflects the youth of today in a negative light”.

If you get a chance to hear these men sing, I promise you will go away with a song in your heart and smile on your face.

Town/County Liaison Committee meets with full agenda

Mayor Tim Darr listens to issues discussed at Town/County Liaison Meeting

Looking for Public Parking? Town makes it easier with new and visible signs.

By Timothy P. Ratigan Warren & Frederick County Report

those who do use those facilities,” he said. He also used E. Wilson Morrison School as an example.

“Obviously you can’t park there during the day during the school year.

During the school day it is serving a purpose,” he said.

The Mayor added, “Our intent was that we are trying to standardize the public parking in town. What we have noticed is that a lot of our Day Trippers coming in from D.C. and Fairfax see that they have a standard for public parking that they can recognize. This is for the future, an FYI for you if you put parking signs in.

People say that there is not parking but there is, they just don’t recognize the public parking areas with the current signs. We just wanted to share

Town and County officials met on July 16 at the Warren County Government Center with Supervisor Chairman Richard Traczyk. Also in attendance were County Administrator Doug Stanley, Supervisor Archie Fox, Front Royal Town Manager Steve Burke, Mayor Timothy Darr, and Economic Development Authority Director Jennifer McDonald.

First on the agenda was the Standardization of Public Parking Signs.

Town Manager Steve Burke informed the county officials that the town has started to install new public parking signs in an effort to direct residents and visitors to public parking areas.

“These signs will be distinguishable

by a uniform design that the council has already approved. These signs are already going up around the Peyton Street (Town Parking) lot. The new standard sign will be used around the town directing travelers to the public parking areas. The reason this item was placed on the Liaison agenda is in case the county wanted to follow suit,” he said.

County Administrator Doug Stanley pointed out that the county property within the town limits really doesn’t offer or have any public parking available.

“Every parking lot we do have serves the specific facility it surrounds. Even now we have to run people off who are parking where they shouldn’t be. My only issue is if people start parking at the Youth Center it will take away spaces from

This could be your NEW home!!

with the county so that in future if you do want to offer public parking in town limits you can use the standardized signs we have available.”

The next item on the agenda was a report on Leach Run Parkway.

The Economic Development Authority (EDA) is spearheading the design and construction of the long planned 1.3 mile divided roadway that will connect Route 55 East with Happy Creek Road. The road will connect the proposed Swan Farm Development, Valley Health’s proposed hospital site, and the proposed second Warren County middle school. Stanley reported that bids for the construction of Leach Run Parkway were received on June 18th and the EDA received a total of five bids. Based on the fact that the low bid was 60 percent over the $8 million construction budget, the EDA will need to evaluate options to proceed with the project. The low bid was submitted by Branch Highways, Inc. “So obviously we have a pretty significant gap we have to overcome,” Stanley said.

EDA and County staff have met with the engineer to identify potential value engineering items and reduce the project scope to bring the project closer to budget. Some items

that are being discussed for removal from the project include: street lighting; landscaping; storm water management and reduction in the number of travel lanes from four to two for a portion of the project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe we can grade for four lanes and construct two and then come back later and construct the other two. Maybe we can look at putting in four lanes at the first intersection and the heaviest sections of traffic and leave the less traveled sections such as the future hospital and residential sections to two lanes. Put in four lanes for the middle school.â&#x20AC;? Stanley said.

With the project bid coming in over budget the County has talked with Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) about the potential of applying for additional revenue sharing and it would be a dollar for dollar match. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes we can do that and the deadline would be this October with a funding award in June 2016. However the difficulty with that is that the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;revenue-sharing pieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is shrinking. We wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what the number would be until after the next legislation session. And the funding wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be approved until June 2016. You would have to make decisions now by guessing what you might get revenue sharing from.â&#x20AC;?

Stanley explained, and continued, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The good thing is that this is a project that they have already funded and we can make the argument that we need additional funds to complete the project.â&#x20AC;?

The Mayor expressed concerns on whether the project would be funded if they went ahead and did the proj-

Town Manager Burke stated that we might be looking at a Leach Run Parkway Phase II project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the short answer is yes. They could get the additional funding to complete the project,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Stanley also pointed out that in order to proceed with the project, the Town/County may be looking at having the EDA continue to carry the debt service for the acquisition of the rights-of-way and easements for the project separate from the $12 million project budget (50 percent local/50 percent revenue sharing). The amount will be reduced as the County purchases the proposed middle school site for just over $1.5 million.

Stanley also said that the potential completion date of the project would be the fall of 2016 with the worst case being completed in the spring of 2017, and the opening of the new middle school being scheduled for the fall of 2017.

Some of the other items up for discussion were the Waste Water Treatment Plant Construction update. As of June 9th the project was into 77 days with 7.9 percent of the work completed.

Building Inspection Software The County and Town are working with EnerGov on the data migration that will allow the historic information to be utilized in the future and not lost. The expected date for the system to go live is in September 2015.

13th Street Improvements Installation of the new mailboxes and restricted parking signs has been completed. The expenses for the project being: Concrete $600, Stone $25, Mailboxes $672.15, Signage $616.20, with a total for the project being $1973.35. The construction activity is completed.

The Development Review Committee reported that they met on May 27th. The committee discussed several projects in the county, including the proposed agricultural events center on Strasburg Road; an expansion of the Toray Plant; renovations for the Rockland Community Center; an expansion of Shenandoah Valley Moving and Storage; and the Holtzman property in Linden.

Other items included in the report were: pending projects in the Riverton Commons Shopping Center; a building expansion of the Happy See LIAISON, 20

Jennifer McDonald of the EDA gave an update of the McKay Springs property issue. Since late 2012 the EDA has been working with the town and county on marketing the McKay Springs property. The EDA has advertised McKay Springs in the IEDC newsletter, Doing Business magazine, Facebook page, EDA website and in flyers handed out at conferences Jennifer McDonald attended.

Since the marketing efforts started, the EDA has received 24 inquiries on the site, from gas stations, a bank, a retail center, an office building, a fast food chain, a solar panel area, a recycling center, and several other smaller businesses.

ers of the site will be fitting a building that meets the size requirements some of the companies need on the available land; access to the site with the expansion of the median on Reliance Road; the property located to the west of the site and the one-acre historical area on the site.

A possible resolution would be to ask the neighboring property owner if they would be willing to sell their property if the EDA received a viable offer for the property, or someone willing to buy it and to get a firm asking price from the owner.

Next on the agenda was a report on the Catlett Mountain Landfill Improvements. The county has requested approval from the town to develop the site for recreational use.

The county prepared a draft concept plan and cost estimate for the former Catlett Mountain Landfill site to develop a portion of the site in a recreational area.

The concept plan was designed to work around the capped waste areas of the site and includes the following amenities: hiking trails (unpaved,

walking paths); practice ball field (180 ft. by 110 ft.); picnic shelter and tot lot; mountain bike skills course and a parking lot to accommodate 30 cars.

Next on the agenda were Warren County in-town projects. First up was the plan for the Warren County Government Center: the county has bids for contracting renovations to the Commissioner of Revenue and Treasurer’s office spaces.

Another in-town project is the second middle school: bids were received on June 11th, and the low bid is within budget. The School Board Building Committee approved the bid award to Shockey at its meeting on June 17th. The facility should be ready to open for the 2017-2018 school year.

On July 11, at approximately 02:58 a.m., the Warren County Sheriff ’s Office responded to 585 Koa Dr. Front Royal, after receiving a call concerning an intoxicated male shooting his firearm within the campground. The male was identified as 27 year old James C. Hall, II of Gloucester Road, Front Royal.

Responding Deputies established a perimeter around Hall’s last known location and evacuated the remaining campers to a safer area within the campground. Night vision and thermal imaging equipment was used in an attempt to locate Hall. After several minutes of verbal commands, via a PA system, Hall exited a wooded area and was taken into custody without incident. A Glock .45 caliber semiautomatic handgun was located in Hall’s waistband. No one was injured during the incident.

Hall was transported to the RSW Regional Jail and charged with being drunk in public, carrying a concealed weapon while being drunk in public, reckless handling of a firearm and willfully discharging a firearm in a place of public business. Hall was held on a $4,000 secured bond. The Warren County Sheriff ’s Office was assisted by the Front Royal Police Department during this incident.

Alert Frederick County: Emergency Notification System On August 1, the Frederick County Department of Public Safety Communications will deploy a new emergency notification system. Still called AlertFrederickCounty, the new system is more user-friendly and offers a broader range of functionality.

After researching several systems, the County chose HyperReach, a state-of-the-art mass emergency notification system designed specifically for public safety. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Frederick County is committed to providing fast and efficient emergency response to its community,â&#x20AC;? said LeeAnna Pyles, Director of Public Safety Communications. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We firmly believe that the new AlertFrederickCounty system will support our efforts and ultimately help us preserve the safety and well-being of our residents.â&#x20AC;?

The system sends thousands of telephone calls, SMS text messages, and emails to geographically targeted households in seconds. A new feature sends broadcast messages to most current mobile telephones in an affected area. And Hyper-Reach Anywhere is a smartphone app that lets people monitor their home, of-

fice, and other addresses they care about.

AlertFrederickCounty will be used to provide clear, concise and consistent information regarding events such as chemical spills, severe weather, evacuations, missing persons, terrorist attacks, or any other emergency. The system will allow the county to notify a community or the entire county by identifying an area on a web-based GIS-mapping system.

It can reach populations of all sizes with specific, up-to-the-minute messages on what actions to take in case of disaster, even when television, radio and other communications chan-

We strongly encourage all citizens to register their additional numbers and devices. Residents who do not have internet access or need assistance with registration may call: (540) 307-1700.

Classic Movie Night: Singinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the Rain

This summer, Old Town Winchester, Tech Team Solutions, and the Old General Store are joining forces to bring our community three outdoor Classic Movie Nights in the Taylor Pavilion hosted by the Magic Lantern Theater.

The series concludes on August 8 with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Singinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the Rain,â&#x20AC;? AFIâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s #1 Movie Musical of All Time. It is both probably the best evocation of Hollywood on the verge of talking movies and a hugely entertaining series of immortal performances

by Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds and Donald Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor of some of Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest popular songs.

The Taylor Pavilion is located just off the downtown mall, directly behind the historic Taylor Hotel building. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Singinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the Rainâ&#x20AC;? will begin at dusk and is free of charge to the public. Attendees are requested to bring their own chairs and/or blankets for seating. In case of rain, the showings will move to the nearby Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church, 28 W. Boscawen St.

in Winchester.   Tech Team Solution and the Old General Store Classic Movie Nights mark a return of the Magic Lantern Theater to outdoor showings downtown after an absence of several years. Formed by a group of volunteers in 2001 to bring a greater diversity of films to the local community, the MLT has expanded its offerings over the years to include the classics, foreign and domestic independent productions and documentaries on various public issues. In addition to Classic Movie Nights, it offers regular screenings at the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley, the Barns of Rose Hill, and Veramar Vineyards as well as other area locations.

Born at the Columbus Zoo in 2003, Shombay was the last living cheetah produced via artificial insemination. Photo Courtesy Ashley Franklin, Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute The Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute is mourning the loss of a 12-year-old male cheetah named Shombay, who died July 18. A final pathology report will provide more information, but his health had been in decline for the past few months. In February, an Xray detected a growth in Shombayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s abdomen. Due to his advanced age and the location of the tumor, veterinarians elected not to perform surgery but continued to closely monitor its growth. The median life expectancy for a cheetah in hu-

man care is 8-12 years old. Cheetah longevity in the wild is 6-8 years.

Shombay arrived at SCBI in 2011 from Fossil Rim Wildlife Center.

Born at the Columbus Zoo June 8, 2003, he was the last living cheetah produced via artificial insemination. Although presented with the opportunity to breed, Shombay never sired any offspring. Rather, he served as an ambassador for his species, illustrating the biology and behavior of cheetahs to SCBI scientists and researchers.

Main Street • Front Royal, VA

Showtimes: 622-9997 Matthew Michael On July 3, 2015 an unknown individual stole a 1987 Jeep Cherokee from the Riverton 7-Eleven Parking Lot. Surveillance images of the perpetrator were captured and released to the Front Royal Police Department. The vehicle was recovered, abandoned along I-81 in Martinsburg West Virginia.

Members of the Front Royal Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Division were able to identify the subject as Matthew Michael of Hagerstown, Maryland. Michael was tracked

by Front Royal Detectives to Martinsburg, West Virginia at the Martinsburg Mall on Friday where he was subsequently arrested by Martinsburg Police on warrants obtained relating to the vehicle theft. Michael remains in the custody of Martinsburg Police awaiting extradition to Virginia to face two Felony charges of Unauthorized Use of a Vehicle and Grand Larceny.

If anyone has any additional information relating to this crime, they are asked to contact Detective Jason Lethcoe at (540) 6362208 or jlethcoe@frontroyalva. com

Harris was selected after a rigorous national search process and her appointment received full board of directors approval. She will succeed Donna Carpenter, who served The Laurel Center as executive director for nearly three decades.

“Kaye is an experienced executive, and an outcome-driven professional,” said The Laurel Center Board of Directors President Pam Lamborne.

“Her eclectic career has given her a broad base of leadership skills that includes a proactive and compassionate approach to problem solving and collaboration building.”

“I am thrilled and deeply honored to have been chosen to lead an organization which truly makes a difference in the lives of persons affected by domestic and sexual violence,” said Harris.

“I look forward to continuing the amazing work of those who’ve gone before me, to building strong partnerships within the community and to building an organization that is the leading voice for violence prevention in the City of Winchester, Frederick, Clarke and Warren counties,” she added. “For more than 30 years, The Laurel Center has been providing groundbreaking programs, services, and advocacy that empower individuals and organizations working to end violence. I am inspired by this history and will work to ensure that it continues well into the future.”

As Executive Director of the New Orleans Coalition on Open Governance, Harris leads a coalition of nonprofit organizations, city officials and concerned citizens to advocate for civic engagement and social justice for underserved communities, and serves as the primary fundraiser and campaign leader for the organization.

She previously served as CEO of West Bank ARC, Inc., in Gretna, Louisiana, Executive Director of Social Services for the Office of the Public Defender in Pascagoula Mississippi, and Executive Director of Child & Adolescent Programs for The Village for Families & Children in Hartford, Connecticut.

For more than 20 years, her career in management has given her experience in program administration and

development, visionary strategic and long-range business planning, financial management, fundraising, grantmaking, board and staff recruitment and development, team building, policy development, public relations, marketing and communications and legislative advocacy.

Since 1999, Harris has also worked as an independent nonprofit management consultant and fundraiser, assisting numerous and varied nonprofit organizations in reaching their strategic goals.

Each clinic costs $99.00 per adult and will be held from 6pm to 8pm at the Front Royal Golf Course, 902 Country Club Road, Front Royal.

Strasburg Museum: Antique Tractors and Long Rifles On Saturday, August 22, from 10 am - 4 pm, with free admission, the Strasburg Museum will host the Massanutten Antique Tractor and Gas Engine Club, with antique tractors on display, and will also have a ONE day exhibit of antique long rifles.

The Massanutten Antique Tractor and Gas Engine Club was organized about 27 years ago by a small group of Shenandoah County men and women, many of whom came from a rich farming heritage. Each wanted to preserve the Valley’s bountiful agricultural tradition and had a passion for the iron machines that so helped early farmers: the gas engine and the tractor.

This special tractor event will provide old and new members of the Massanutten Antique and Gas Engine Club an opportunity to continue the tradition of sharing their love and knowledge of engines and tractors used in the Shenandoah Valley’s now fading agricultural industry.
