Pulling weight at the Spring Thing By Ken Odor jodor@goochlandgazette.com

It was a hot day last Saturday, but that didn’t keep folks from turning out for the annual Spring Thing held at the Field Day of the Past grounds in Rockville. Although the main attractions were the truck and tractor

Goochland School Board members voted last week to spend some money on an old problem – whenever they can get their hands on the cash to tackle it. But they declined to authorize payment for a study of electricity and energy savings, deferring action until their next meeting First up was the ongoing odor problem at Goochland Elementary School. G o o c h l a n d Superintendent of Schools Linda Underwood recommended the board approve paying up to $3,500 to Mosely Architects, pending the availability of funding. Mosely would meet with county maintenance to review existing documents and do a visual inspection. Mosely also proposed using Stemmie Plumbing Repair to conduct a smoke test. A narrative report of the results of the smoke test and any other discoveries would then be provided to the board. “At this point we don’t have funding to start this

T H E

process,” said Underwood. With board members Ivan Mattox and Andrew Meng absent, the board voted 3-0 to approve the Mosely bid when funds become available, possibly in early August, according to Underwood. The board deferred a vote on spending up to $7,000 on a study by Esperitus on possible electricity savings and management of energy, on the urging of District 1 board member James Haskell, who cited the absence of two board members. The issue was tabled until the June 22 workshop meeting. School employees will continue having their five percent employee contribution to the Virginia Retirement System picked up by the schools after the three board members present approved a resolution to that effect.

Ostensibly a 1953 Chevrolet pickup, it had parts from 14 different cars. “I built it with parts I could get cheap or free,” said Nixon, who lives in Gum Springs. It sported Chrysler Imperial headlamps and seats from an MG Midget. Only the fenders, hood and other body parts are Chevy, “But they’ve all been cut on.” Maybe the most eye-catching feature was the unique air cleaner housing, constructed from dummy .50caliber machine gun rounds, which Nixon picked up at a previous Field Day of the Past. He said that he saw them at a military surplus vendor and started wondering how he could use them on his truck.

Her husband Raymond explained how he became interested five years ago when he came to Field Day and watched the tractor pulls, before spotting the smaller lawn tractors. “I went from one tractor to eight,” said Raymond. “Now the whole family pulls.” Spring Thing provides a sense of what will be going on at the main Field Day of the Past event, scheduled this year for September 17-20.

Jack Parslow from Powhatan brought his 1965 660 Rambler fourdoor sedan. “All mine are drivers,” said Parslow, meaning the Rambler has regular and not antique license tags, so he can drive it as often as he wants. Parslow said he also has a 1951 Dodge Roadster convertible, a 1950 Studebaker and a 1985 El Camino Super Sport at home. But for daily driving he drives either an S-10 pickup or a Toyota Prius. Show promoter Steve Shell said there were no divisions in the show, just awards for the top 25 and the Best in Show. Judging was to begin around noon. Over on the red clay of the tractor pull lane, more than 140 entrants were battling to see how far they could pull a sled with their lawnmower-tractors. Twyla Bright from Emporia man-

According to Earley, although Virginia ranks 28 in overweight adults, the state ranks 23 in childhood obesity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are definitely up there in the obesity rate,â&#x20AC;? said Earley. Focusing on Goochland Elementary School, Earley furnished the following information: Kindergarten â&#x20AC;&#x201C;30 percent of students are overweight or obese. Third grade - Almost 39 percent of student are overweight or obese. Fifth grade - 36 percent of students are overweight or obese. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These numbers are shocking,â&#x20AC;? said Chairman Maxwell Cisne.

The board will take up any revisions in the Vision statement and a revised organizational chart at its June 22 meeting. In new business, Underwood said progress is being made on designing a new school-based gifted program and that Connie Foreman will make a presentation on the proposed curriculum at the June 22 meeting. In light of the recent incident where a GHS student was found to have brought a firearm to school, Underwood said â&#x20AC;&#x153;We cannot comment on specific cases or individual students,â&#x20AC;? but told the board that crisis planning is reviewed and updated after such incidents.

The Richmond Tea Party came to Goochland last week and the response was big. Organizers booked a conference room at the Goochland library, expecting about 50-60 folks to attend. When more than 165 showed up, they moved the meeting outside to the library grounds to accommodate the crowd. It was part of the Richmond Tea Party’s plan to reach out to counties such as Goochland, Louisa and New Kent. Richmond Tea Party board member and Hadensville resident Susan Lascolette helped organize the meeting. “I’ve not been active politically before,” said Lascolette as she helped set up chairs in the library conference room, “But I’ve wanted to do something for a long time.” Lascolette said it was the Troubled Asset Relief Program bill that galvanized her into action. Some of the early arrivals made

similar comments. “I’m a pretty conservative constitutional type,” said Barry Booth of Columbia. “The Tea Party has got my interest.” “Government is the problem,” said Robert Carle. “They are spending too much money.” John and Louise Lones came from Louisa for the meeting. “We feel helpless,” said Louise. John said he was concerned about the build up of government debt and the taxes that must follow. Lascolette said she had about 65 RSVPs to her meeting e-mail, but by the time it was all over 165 people had signed in. The main attraction was an address by Richmond Tea Party head Jamie Radtke. “If anyone ever doubted this was truly a grassroots movement they should have been here,” joked Radtke in an interview after the meeting, referring to the scores of people sitting on the grass outside the library. “They couldn’t get into the building,” she said, “So we met on the hillside.”

Lots of people want to see a change in the School Board and the Board of Supervisors — Malvern “Rudy” Butler

Radtke said she spoke briefly about the five planks of the Tea Party movement, which were listed on their brochure as constitutional governance, limited government, fiscal restraint, virtue and accountability, and free markets. The she took about 45 minutes of questions from the crowd. Radtke said many of the attendees were focused on holding the Goochland County government accountable. Supervisors Malvern R. “Rudy” Butler (District 4) and Ned S. Creasey (District 3) attended the meeting. “It’s a great turnout for them,” said Butler, who said he thought the Tea Party might have some influence on upcoming local elections. “Lots of people want to see a change in the School Board and the Board of Supervisors,” said Butler. Lascolette said many of the people who came to the meeting had not been involved in politics before. “That makes us a formidable movement,” said Radtke. What’s next for the Goochland branch? Lascolette said about 20 people said they were interested in potential leadership roles in the movement and they would meet soon. Another general meeting would probably be scheduled for sometime in July, she said.

Goochland Teacher of the Year By Ken Odor jodor@goochlandgazette.com

Heather Wilckens, named this year’s Goochland County’s Teacher of the Year, is a repeater. She was named Mechanicsville Elementary School Teacher of the Year in 1997. Last week Wilckens was picked as this year’s Goochland Teacher of the Year. The choice was announced at the regular School Board meeting, where all five Goochland teachers of the year, one from each school, were recognized. “It was a tremendous honor,” said Wilckens Friday, at her first grade classroom at Randolph Elementary School, where she has taught since 2005. “I was not expecting it at all. If I had known I would

have had my mom there,” she said. Wilckens now advances to regional competition, for which she will need to submit three letters of recommendation along with the portfolio of essays she wrote for the county competition. Winners in the eight regions compete at the state level, with the winner advancing to national competition. Two Virginia Teachers of the Year have gone on to become national winners: Mary V. Bicouvaris (after which the Virginia Teacher of the Year is named) in 1989 and B. Philip Bigler in 1998. After graduating from Randolph Macon College, Wilckens went to work for the Hanover County school system, where she taught from 1991 to 1997, during which time she took a

year sabbatical to earn her Masters from VCU. A six year break followed, while she and husband Eric had their two daughters Alexandra and Jessica. They moved to Goochland in 1995. “What brought me out here was getting married,” said Wilckens. “He wanted land.” The family then found their home on Hockett Road. When her oldest child, Alexandra, was ready to start school at Randolph, Wilckens started substituting there. “That was my whole plan, to get a job where my kids went to school,” she explained. That way she didn’t have to worry about child care, since the kids could just come to her classroom when school was out. Wilckens said she loves

Goochland. “It’s small and personal. The county has amazing schools and teachers. Randolph feels like a big family.” Education runs in Wilckens’ family - both her grandmother and mother were teachers. “I always knew what I was going to do,” she said. “It’s in my blood.” Goochland’s other four teachers of the year are: Goochland Elementary School second grade teacher Andrea Cachina, Byrd Elementary School music and choral teacher Kim Watts, who also teaches at GES, Goochland Middle School Physical and Earth Science Teacher Amy Spoonhower and Goochland High School math teacher Henry Jones.

OPINION: Editorial, Letters to the Editor

Want more? Visit us on the web at

www.goochlandgazette.com

Being There One thing about community journalism, sometimes you can manage to almost be at two places at the same time. Almost. That was the case for this writer last week, when the regularly scheduled meeting of the Goochland School Board and an organizational meeting for a possible Goochland chapter of the Richmond Tea Party were both scheduled for 7 p.m. June 8. It was a toss-up as to which meeting to give priority. Goochland Editor Amy Condra was out of town on a well-deserved vacation so I was on my own. School Board – Well, we pretty much know what’s going to happen there pretty much – there’s an online agenda and we’ve been there a bunch of times. Tea Party – Who knows? I didn’t have a clue as to how many folks the meeting might show up-- it could be 10, or 200. Turns out it was closer to 200 (see story page 4). Held at the Goochland Library, the Tea Party meeting was almost within shouting distance of the School Board meeting at the high school. Long story short, by hotfooting it back and forth and making a little judicious after-the-fact phone calling, we managed to get a story on both events. And they are both stories worth paying attention to. As we commented last week, the recent discovery of the problems in county government has sparked a heightened level of citizen interest and participation in county government. Similarly, on a national level, the recent recession and concern over higher debt levels caused by federal government intervention in the private sector (we’ll find out later whether that intervention was wise or not) have caused many folks to sit up and take notice. That’s the thing about many of the people who showed up at the Tea Party meeting at the library. Some said they’d never come to a political meeting before in their lives; at least one said they didn’t normally vote. Third party efforts have been unsuccessful in recent history, and the Tea Party has been dismissed as an effort that may have fleeting success but will then fade away. Is it a real grass-roots movement, or is it, as some have claimed, “Astroturf?” We’ll see – but this writer is betting the movement may stick around longer than some prognosticators predict. - Ken Odor Staff writer for The Goochland Gazette

No Fire Camp I am very disappointed to hear that there will be no Fire Camp this year. I have attended Fire Camp for six years. In Fire Camp we learned fire safety in the kitchen: Turn the handles to the sides of the stove instead of sticking out from the front of the stove, don’t put out grease fires with water, use a fire extinguisher, which we learned how to use. Never play with matches. I got to look through a thermal camera in a fake smoke filled room

to find people. We learned how to use the fire hoses from the fire truck. We had bucket brigades and had competitions to see who can dress into a firefighter suit the fastest. This teaches teamwork and concentration. Bucket brigades were used in the old days before fire trucks. We learned first aid, like how to get a victim’s body on a stretcher and how to wrap the person to keep them safe in travel. Because of my interest in Fire Camp I have a cousin and a brother who wants to be in Fire Camp. The six fire companies provided us lunch

every day. What is wrong in our county and our leaders? First the County Administrator and the Board of Supervisors cuts our school budget, now the Fire Camp is cut! Do you, our county officials believe in a future? We are the future! I am going to be in the rescue squad, Fire Company and Med Flight when I am old enough. I am committed to being of service to Goochland County, my home. R.J. Jones Manakin-Sabot

Surprised Verlander drafted by Detroit BY CHARLIE LEFFLER cleffler@goochlandgazette.com

ast Thursday, Goochland High School senior Ben Verlander joined an elite group of high school athletes by being selected by the Detroit Tigers in the 46th round of the Major League Baseball draft. When the selection came, no one was more surprised than Verlander himself. “I was actually out on a minigolf course with some of my friends at the beach when my dad called me and told me the news,” Verlander said. “I was kind of speechless for a second. I looked around at all my friends and didn’t even say a word and then I was like, ‘I got drafted in the major leagues.’ I was completely shocked by what had happened because it wasn’t even in the back of my mind.” Even though caught by sur-

prise, Verlander took little time to put the draft into perspective. “There’s really no meaning to it because I’m not going to play (professionally) but I think it just shows me that it’s there. I’m capable of doing it,” he said. “I’m going to go to Old Dominion and hopefully progress as a player throughout my three or four years there and move up higher in the draft.” Verlander may have been by surprise but such was not the case for Goochland head baseball coach Wes Farkas. “We thought it might happen but you just really know that late in the rounds what will happen,” Farkas said. “But we were definitely excited, the whole community is pretty excited that he got drafted.” Verlander becomes the second Bulldog drafted in the past two years. In 2008, John Hicks was picked by the Los Angles Angels in the 31st round of

the draft. For Farkas the draft of GHS players is a proud moment for the Bulldogs’ baseball program. “It kind of puts us on the map,” he said. “Having a player drafted is obviously good publicity. So for our program it’s great. It’s encouraging for me as a coach. I know Ben’s a hard worker and I’m glad that he’s getting recognized for that.” There was also little surprise that Detroit, where Ben’s older brother Justin plays, made the selection. “That late they tend to draft players that have some kind of affiliation with the organization,” Farkas said. “My guess is not only did they see his talent but they also try to do a lot of stuff within the family of the organization,” Farkas added. If Ben had opted to play professionally, he said there would be both pros and cons to playing along side his older

brother. “Since he’s been in Detroit I’ve gotten to know the place very well. I’ve gotten to know all the players. I’m really good friends with everybody there. The coach, the manager, all the players. I know the ends and outs of the field. I feel like if I go there I’d already feel like one of the team, which is an advantage there. “I mean how often do brothers get to play with each other in the major league,” Verlander added. But Verlander also feels that a future with a different organization could be good too. “Then on the other hand if I go someplace else it’s something completely new,” he said. “Then I’d get to face Justin, which is definitely a pro.” Or at least it would be after the two had faced off for the first time. “He already told me see Verlander >page 10

Rockies draft ex-Cougar Russell Wilson BY TIM PEARRELL Media General News Services

he timetable and logistics of playing baseball for the Colorado Rockies and football for North Carolina State did not concern Russell Wilson last week. Those questions, and others he figures, will work themselves out. It’s about timing and opportunity, and the second day of the Major League Baseball draft produced those things for Wilson, who played at Collegiate, and Austin Wates and Kurt Fleming, both of whom played at St. Christopher’s. Wilson was taken in the fourth round by the Rockies. He said he intends to sign with Colorado, play this summer in the minors and then return for his redshirt junior football season with N.C. State, where he has been a highly productive quarterback. Wates, a junior outfielder at Virginia Tech who graduated from St. Christopher’s in 2007, was taken in the third round by the Houston Astros. Fleming, a switch-hitting outfielder with the

of the year, went to N.C. State to play both sports. In just two football seasons, he ranks in the top six in several Wolfpack career offensive categories, including passing yards (4,982, fifth) and touchdowns (48, third). He threw for 3,027 yards with 31 TDs and 11 interceptions last season. Wilson’s baseball talent has been well-known to scouts since his days at Collegiate, but he hasn’t been on the field as much at N.C. State. A knee injury limited him to 27 games as a sophomore, and he started just 25 of 62 games this year (.306, three homer , 12 RBI; 0-1, 5.84 ERA in 12 1/3 IP). Colorado, though, obviously isn’t afraid to take a chance on college quarterbacks. The Rockies drafted Clemson QB Kyle Parker in the first round Monday. “I don’t want to be looked at as just a quarPhoto courtesy of NC State University terback when I get there,” said Wilson, who Ex-Collegiate stand-out Russell Wilson was probably will play second base or outfield. “I’m selected in the fourth round of the MLB draft. a baseball player when I get there, and I’m a Saints this season, was taken in the eighth round football player when I’m here.” by the Atlanta Braves. Wilson said he plans to spend some time Wilson, a two-time Times-Dispatch athlete with his family, then meet with the Rockies to

hash out details and a timeline. N.C. State starts preseason football camp on Aug. 3. “It’s a blessing to have the opportunity to play major-league baseball,” he said. “I also want to come back and win an ACC championship for the football team and I want to throw a lot of touchdowns.” N.C. State football coach Tom O’Brien said he hasn’t been in this situation with a player before but said, “Russell is a little bit exceptional in everything he does, so it’s worthwhile.” “There’s a lot of things that have to be discussed,” he said. “But one thing I know about Russell is if he wants to play football, that’s pretty much what he’s going to do. I’m not sure what the major-league baseball situation is, how long he’s property of the Rockies or anything like that. I don’t even know if he’s planning on staying after football season. The last time we talked, he just wanted to play football.” Wilson did not address whether he would return for his senior year. Fleming was a little surprised Atlanta drafted see Wilson >page 10

John Hicks is never far away from home BY JIM RIDOLPHI Special Correspondent

ormer Goochland catcher John Hicks took full advantage of this year’s NCAA experience, as his University of Virginia Cavaliers forged a path that eventually fell short of a second College World Series appearance in as many years. The Cavs opened post-season play with a 15-4 thumping of Virginia Commonwealth University and Hicks played a major role in that effort, belting out four hits in five attempts and recording four RBIs. His only non-hit appearance was a ball hit deep to the right field warning track that fell out of the fielder’s glove to score two runs for the Cavs. The sophomore also added a home run, played almost error-free ball at first base and even moved behind the plate for the final inning. Hicks considers himself a natural born catcher but doesn’t mind filling in at different positions just to get playing time. That ability to multi-task on the diamond has served him well since his arrival in Charlottesville. Under the direction of head coach Brian

O’Connor, Hicks made his initial appearances playing first base for the Cavs then catching for weekend games. I’ve played a little bit all over,” Hicks said. “I even played left field last year. I haven’t played first base since I was 12, but the coach gave me a fist baseman’s mitt and told me some things I needed to work on and I practiced.” This season, with some first base experience under his belt, Hicks became more comfortable at position and enjoyed the opportunity. “It’s a fun

position to play and there’s a lot of action over there.” Hicks kept the Saturday assignment behind the plate this season and caught two games during the week until senior catcher Franco Valdes required minor surgery on his knee. That put Hicks back behind the plate full time, a position he hopes to secure for next season. “That’s the plan. If I come out and have a good fall, hopefully, I’ll be back there for every game.” The national media

His father, Steve, is a scout hard to overcome because peofor the Braves. ple will look at that and say, “My dad never turned in a ‘Your dad works for them.’ I

just want people to know I got there because of my talent.” Fleming has a difficult decision: He has an appointment to West Point and was planning to play football and baseball. “It’s always been my dream to play professional baseball,” he said. “But it’s going to be hard to give up a scholarship and the academic degree that you get when you come out of West Point.”

attention, a loyal fan base in Charlottesville and the pressures of post-season play have not rattled the well-spoken Hicks. He continues to maintain relationships with his friends and family in Goochland, and goes home every chance he gets. “I talk to them often and get home every chance I get,” he said. “It’s great having my family so close and they come here a lot, so I still feel a connection to home.” Hicks also maintains relationships with his former coaches at Goochland High

School and at home during the summer he heads to some familiar ground. “I like to go over and see Coach (Joe) Fowler and watch football practice,” he said. “We still text each other and keep in touch.” With all the hoopla, Charlottesville could seem like a million miles away from Sandy Hook, but for Hicks, it’s still just a 30-minute drive away. “I still keep in touch with all of those guys, and I get home every chance I get. It’s still home for me.”

Hicks is also getting more comfortable fulfilling a role as a familiar face at UVA post game news conferences. After using his words sparingly in the first appearances, he now fields reporter’s questions with ease. It is a phenomenon that has not gone unnoticed by Coach O’Connor. Following one of Hick’s more lengthy answers following the VCU win, the coach could not resist adding a comment. “I don’t know if the country boy from Goochland has ever talked this much,” he joked.

nine, whatever we did, playing basketball, baseball, he would always kick my butt at everything. “He never took it easy on me and I think that’s what’s helped me today… if he comes home and plays me in video games he still kicks my butt. But I just think it helps me do what I do today. It makes me push harder.” However Ben can finally hold some form of bragging rights over his older brother. While Ben was selected in the MLB draft as a high school

senior, Justin was not selected until his third year at ODU; albeit the second overall pick of the 2004 draft. But for now, Ben just plans to enjoy the honor of the selection. “My dream has always been to play in the major leagues and just this being the first step,” he said. “I just look at it as a great honor to be one of the players, out of the millions and millions in the world to play baseball, to be one of the thousand to get drafted in a major league draft.”
