SURS Museum welcomes visiting journalists

oochland’s Second Union Rosenwald School Museum recently hosted two visiting journalists interested in learning more about the Second Union Rosenwald School’s (SURS) history and the role it played in educating Black children during the era of school segregation. During the visit, Jill Abramson — the former Executive Editor of The New York Times and now a senior lecturer at Harvard University — and former Associated Press journalist Diane Duston were treated to a tour and presentation organized by SURS President Calvin Hopkins, himself a former student at the school.

Abramson explained that she and Duston, longtime friends who share a passion for Civil Rights history, have taken in recent years to organizing what they call “History Driving Tours” through different parts of the country. Having heard about the SURS Museum, Abramson said she wanted to make sure it was included as a stop during the two women’s recent tour through Virginia, which also included visits to Charlottesville, Richmond and Farmville. To help round out their visit to the SURS Museum, which was created to preserve the history and cultural significance of the Second Union

EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY AMERICAN MADE

Rosenwald School, Hopkins invited several former students to reflect on their experiences there. Among the attendees was also Ms. Ruth Cook Johnson, a former SURS teacher. “Listening to their stories, I could see why Mr. Hopkins and the other former students are so proud of the museum,” said Abramson, adding that she was also struck by the way the school had managed to provide a quality, comprehensive education for students despite limited space and resources. Said Abramson, “It just really made a big impression.” —Roslyn Ryan

Relay for Life looks to rebound after pandemic By Roslyn Ryan Editor

Like so many nonprofit organizations around the world, the American Cancer Society was hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to being forced to lay off employees and turn away volunteers, the organization also had to cancel its signature fundraising event, Relay for Life, last year and this year. According to Goochland Relay for Life volunteer Valarie Pace, the organization is plan-

ning to hold a drive-thru Luminaria event on Oct. 2,, allowing drivers to make their way through a path lined with candlelit paper bags bearing the names of people who have faced cancer. Changing from an in-person event to a drive-thru is just one way that Relay had to adjust to the challenges of fundraising during a pandemic, Pace explained. For an organization largely dependent on volunteers, quarantines and social distancing measures also made for a tough road in

recent months. These days, despite her own busy schedule, Pace says she is trying to help as much as she can. She traces her own involvement with the organization back to the days when she and several other people she knew were taking an aerobics class lead by Shirley T. Burke, a Goochland resident beloved throughout the Richmond region for her highenergy, inclusive approach to exercise. Every year, Burke would hold a special class for those who were participating

in Relay. Burke passed away in 2019, but left Pace with a passion for Relay and for supporting the American Cancer Society. Pace said she will also be forever grateful to the passionate group of volunteers who showed her and the current group of Goochland Relay volunteers the ropes when they were just starting out two decades ago. Over the years, Pace says, she has had several friends diagnosed with cancer and has leaned on her experiences

Class of 2021 grad honored for never having missed a single day of school By Roslyn Ryan Editor

There may be few constants in life, but for anyone who happened to be a classmate of Lucas Edwards at any point over the last 13 years one thing was for certain: if school was in session, Edwards was going to be there. On June 7, during Goochland High School’s graduation ceremony, Edwards was recognized for a ch i e v i n g a perfect attendance record for his entire EDWARDS academic career — that’s 13 years of never missing a single day of school. Asked how he managed to

do it, Edwards admitted that it wasn’t always easy. Although it helped that he typically enjoyed good health, there were certainly days when fate seemed to be conspiring against him. On those rare days, Edwards explained, he knew he had to at least make it through his first block class in order to avoid being marked absent. So on to school he went. Knowing about the impressive streak he was working on, teachers and other students soon began offering their encouragement. And while Edwards says his parents certainly helped him stay focused on his goal, he also knew from an early age that he was following in the footsteps of two legends: his sisters, Grayson and Meghan, had each achieved perfect attendance as well. If it seems unbelievable that there would be three siblings without a single school

absence among them — that’s “I think everyone would 29 collective years of schooling have freaked out.” without a single missed day — Edwards’ mother Tammy says the feat has become something of a long-running family joke. “My kids like to joke that they could have been near death, but they were still going to school no matter what,” Tammy says. “Honestly, they were all blessed with very good health and never really had a reason to stay home from school.” Lucas, who gravitated towards math while in high school and plans to study Computer Science at Liberty University this fall, said it was a nice surprise to be recognized at graduation. Asked if he ever thought about what his teachers and fellow students would have done if he had ever failed to show up for class at any point over the past 13 years, he just laughed.

as a volunteer to help support them in their fight. And while the Relay of 2021 may not look exactly like events in the past — think somewhat scaled-back fundraising goals and virtual planning meetings taking the place of face-to-face gatherings — Pace has at least one reason to feel very optimistic: having started with the goal of raising $22K dollars this year, Goochland Relay is already at $18K dollars.

Jane Roberts, Senior Development manager for the American Cancer Society, says she and so many of the local volunteers have already begun planning for next year’s event, which they expect to feature a return to the way so many people have enjoyed Relay in the past. As for this year’s Luminaria, she says, “We would just love for people to join us and be a part of it.”

Sunshine Food Bus releases schedule for summer meals By Roslyn Ryan Editor

Several years ago, when Goochland County Public Schools’ supervisor of nutrition services Lisa Landrum hit upon a solution for providing nutritious meals to local students in need during the summer months, she knew her first step would be to get all of the other people who would need to be involved in the project on board. And, in this case, that meant literally. Landrum’s plan, to turn a decommissioned GCPS bus into a kitchen on wheels, meant that she and her staff would be able to visit local neighborhoods and ensure that those who might otherwise struggle with hunger could have access

to warm and healthy meals. And while Landrum faced a number of hurdles in her quest to get the project up and running, it has now been an invaluable community resource since 2019.

A person is only as correct as you allow them to think they are. When in doubt, guess. Still in doubt? Attack. When you make a mistake, say you’re sorry. Lol, just kidding, go AFK (Away From Keyboard) until you can think of a plausible reason why the mistake was another

Summer smiles of children say it all By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist

They say the best things in life are free. It takes some much longer to come to that realization than others, but most of us eventually come to a reckoning that reinforces the old saying. It’s not difficult to appreciate the value of good health, good friends and a family that loves you, but it’s easy to forget the little things in life that make it special, meaningful and worth savoring. My children are in Florida visiting my sister and her family that includes aunts, uncles and cousins. Their visit is not unlike millions taking place in America as the country enjoys simple pleasures that only summer can provide. Across the country, cousins gather with cousins to invade amusement parks, overflow local pools and consume an unknown number of snow cones, and make memories that remain long after the beach has closed. My sister, her husband and son and daughter team up to make sure their visits are always filled with adventures and experiences they would not experience at home. One called mid-week to relay an adventure that I would not have quite frankly associated with her. “Hey, Dad, I got to hold a baby alligator,” my daughter excitedly said. And that’s the magic that summer vacations can provide, a unique chance to experience something out of your comfort zone, and there’s always that one

Manta Rays back in action in 2021 Staff Reports

As head coach Helen Brown put it, the Goochland Manta Rays are having a blast, and they’re happy to be back in the water. Competition is back under way following last season’s cancellation due to COVID. Goochland YMCA’s swim program, which competes in the Greater Richmond Aquatic League, had completed three meets as of June 26. Brown said their newest swimmers handled themselves well considering they only had one practice prior to their first swim meet. She added that the first two swim meets were an extension of practice for the team – an opportunity for them to get acclimated to summer swim meets after missing last season. “We had a different focus for meet 3.” Brown said that “it was time for the swimmers to get serious, and the night for the swimmers to show the coaches they were paying attention at practice.” And the swimmers, she added, did not disappoint. Their June 23 opponent, Wellesley, came ready to compete, and Brown said that “it just made for some fantastic swims. “ “I am grateful to have had Wellesley as an opponent because they were just as excited to see our swimmers doing well, and we were (excited) to see theirs having great races,” Brown said. “That is (what) makes summer swimming so much fun. It is not always about the final score, but the individual successes.” Goochland now has 18 swimmers who have qualified for the GRAL championships with three more chances to add more qualifiers as of June 26. Quadruple event win-

ners in the June 16 meet were Zachary Cheatham (boys 11-12: 100-yard individual medley, 50 backstroke, 50 freestyle, mixed 200 medley relay with Andrea Rogerson, Ryan Johnson and Luca Gardner), Joe Hardman (boys 15-18: 100 IM, 100 back, 50 free, 200 medley relay with Grace Kemmerly, Anneliese Rogerson and Leyton Sutherland), Ryan Johnson (boys 11-12: 100 IM, 50 butterfly, 50 free, 200 medley relay), Grace Kemmerly (girls 15-18: 100 IM, 100 back, 50 breaststroke, 200 medley relay), Andrea Rogerson (girls 11-12: 100 IM, 50 fly, 50 free, 200 medley relay) and Anneliese Rogerson (girls 15-18: 100 IM, 50 breast, 100 fly, 200 medley relay). Quadruple event winners in the June 23 meet were Caroline Darden (girls 8u: 50 free, 25 back, 25 free, mixed 100 free relay with Cora Chapman, Wesley Cheatham and Charlie Lawson), Johnson (100 free, 50 back, 50 breast, 200 free relay with Andrea, Zachary and Jude Chapman), Kemmerly (100 free, 50 back, 100 breast, 200 free relay with Lucas Edwards, Abby Pillion and Jessica Valdez), Malachi Montgomery (boys 13-14: 100 free, 50 fly, 50 free, 200 free relay with Hayden Russell, Simon Smith and Annika Rogerson), Andrea (100 free, 50 back, 50 breast, 200 free relay), Annika Rogerson (girls 13-14: 100 free, 50 back, 50 fly, 200 free relay), Hayden Russell (girls 13-14: 100 free, 50 fly, 50 free, 200 free relay) and Jessica Valdez (girls 15-18: 100 free, 50 fly, 50 free, 200 free relay).

Baseball standouts make all-region Goochland saw four players make the Class 3, Region B All-Region baseball teams. Mason Gregory (top left) was among the four outfielders to be selected to First Team All-Region. Chris White (top right), who also recently won Class 3 outdoor track and field state championships in both the boys 300-meter hurdles and the boys 200-meter dash, made Second Team All-Region for designated hitter. Travis Lestyk (bottom left), who ensured Goochland’s 4-3 walk-off victory over Amelia in the Bulldogs’ regular-season finale with the win-clinching walk, made Second Team All-Region for catcher. Ayden Doczi (bottom right), who earlier this year placed third in the region in the heavyweight class for wrestling and is also headed to VMI to attend classes and play Division I college football following the Bulldogs’ 6-1 football season, made Second Team All-Region for first base. Lestyk, White and Doczi all completed their senior season this year. Gregory is a rising junior. The Bulldogs had a winning regular season (6-5) in 2021 and concluded the season in the Class 3, Region B quarterfinals.

Smiles continued from >6 uncle that will let you ride the zip line. My nephew has updated me all week with photos of the kids having fun. The pictures of all of the kids together tell a story of a week of fun and adventure. But even more important than the series of adventures and new and interesting venues they visited was the happiness that being with family and a week with cousins can provide. For many of us who have travelled to some remote loca-

tions in a lifetime of journeys, the memories of those summers with friends and family are often the ones that stand out in our minds. As I stared at the latest batch of photos, I had a revitalization of the true joy and comfort that a smile on your child’s face can provide. Seeing all of those smiling faces gave me a renewed appreciation for the things in life that bring us happiness and cannot be purchased. The memories made in this short week will hopefully give these kids images that will pop up for the rest of their lives

TUESDAY EVENING 4 PM 4:30

when they think of summer, and perhaps admire a smile on the face of their child. It also proves that some things in life remain constant, and spending summers with cousins is a tradition that has stood the test of time when it comes to enduring memories, at least in this household. I probably won’t remember the many places they visited during that busy week, or the numerous new things they saw or experienced. But, I surely won’t forget those smiles or the joy that is uniquely felt when visiting family and making summer memories.

Social Media continued from >6 compares to a torrent of personal opinion and unverified hearsay when it comes time to drive home your point. There are still nice people in the world who will post a photo of a lost goat that wandered into their yard and try to find its owner. I don’t have a goat, but I still find this comforting. If someone should be caught parking, or even just momentarily stopped, in the fire lane at the grocery store, the best course of action is

absolutely always to snap a photo and immediately shame that person on social media. The facts of who they are or why they were in the fire lane are of absolutely no relevance, and should not, under any circumstances, be investigated. On everyone else’s page, someone’s kid is always doing something way more impressive than yours. Fortunately, on your page, the reverse also is true. Not fully understanding a thing should never preclude or dissuade you from vehemently opposing it. In fact,

if it was even worth understanding you totally would, but it’s not, so you really don’t. But you still absolutely hate it. And finally, always remember: the English language has approximately 170,000 words in current use, and these words can be arranged in billions of nuanced ways to convey how we truly feel about the world and the people we share it with. When it really counts, however, it’s always best to say it with a meme of some random guy making a weird face.
