“It’s hard to put into words how much I and the other board members are going to miss Don Sharpe,” said board of supervisors chairman Neil Spoonhower. “Coming on the board the same time and serving as chair and vice chair this year, I really felt like we understood what each other was going through and had a unique bond.

This charming picture was taken at Elmington (Belleview) on Shallow Well Road near Dover. The year is around 1915. The boy on the front row, third from the left, is holding a fielder’s glove. The boy second from the right is holding what appears to be a buckle-back catcher’s mitt. Both of the these gloves date to the 1915-1920 era. Sadly many of these fine young men remain unidentified. Those who are known: pictured in the front row, from left to right, are Hilary Bowles, Maurice Richmond (fifth, kneeling with hands behind head), and Smith Bowles (sixth with hat and glove). On the back row are Willie Briesmaster (third from left holding bat) and Argyle Mitchell (far right, wearing hat). Local historians hope that a resident will recognize someone in the photograph and will contact the Goochland County Historical Society.

“Everything I have in my life now is because of this program,” Winbush says, adding that the brotherhood and sense of community he has found through Call Me MISTER have been integral to his Tosuccess.Morgan, the value of Call Me MISTER comes down to opening doors for young people of all backgrounds and helping reshape the perception of what a teacher looks like.

“We are really becoming a global society,” Morgan said. Helping to create a more diverse network of teachers “just opens doors and reminds students that there is so much more out there in the world.”

“He looked at me and said ‘You could teach Maurice,’” Carter remembers, crediting those words of encouragement for launching a career that would span over four decades and touch countless other lives. Now Carter spends his days mentoring students and working to help more young black students see the benefits—for themselves and for their communities—of having more black male teachers in the work force.One of the students Carter worked with was James Bennett, who first heard about the Call Me MISTER program during his freshman year at Longwood. Bennett, who grew up in Sussex County, says he knew right away that it was a great match. “I felt welcomed immediately,” says Bennett, who appreciated the encouragement and guidance the program offered.

which was founded in 2000 at South Carolina’s Clemson University as a way to increase the pool of black male teachers in the workforce, has surged in popularity in recent years and can now be found in nearly 30 colleges and universities.“Call Me MISTER’s founding was rooted in the virtual absence of minority males in the teaching force in early grades,” says Carter. “It is at these grade levels that the importance of male role models is highest, particularly in minority communities.”Threeteachers currently working in Goochland County Public Schools— Morgan, Goochland Middle School social studies teacher James Bennett, and Goochland High School special education teacher Bryant Winbush— took part in the program, which offers financial support through scholarships, as well as assistance with job placement.

Carter, who spent his career serving in roles ranging from teacher to administrator to superintendent, came out of retirement in 2012 to serve as the director of Longwood’s Call Me MISTER program. He says he can still recall the teacher who inspired him to consider a career in education.

Given the statistics, it’s clear there is still plenty of ground to gain: Nationally, according to a recent report published by the Stanford Graduate School of Education, black men make up just 2% of teachers, despite the fact that more

But just as few would condone helping someone contemplating suicide to end his or her own life—using the logic that they were going to do it anyway—providing the means for an addict to continue abusing drugs flies in the face of all reason. If addiction is indeed a disease, those suffering from it deserve compassion, support and immediate access to treatment.What they don’t need are “solutions” that do nothing to help them reclaim their lives and put addiction behind them.

Many of the facilities reportedly provide clean needles, sterile wipes and other supplies, all of it aimed at the ultimate goal of harmHarmreduction.reduction is an admirable goal, to be sure. But we also need to remember that illegal drugs cause harm that goes far beyond the end user. The drugs being used in supervised injection sites didn’t come from the corner market. They made it here via a criminal enterprise that brave men and women across our nation have given their lives to combat, a network that has filled our prisons, destroyed countless families and devastated entire neighborhoods in big cities and small towns alike.

In October of that year, after waiting for 10 days in Fort Lewis, Washington, to ship out to Cam Ranh Bay, Vietnam, our orders were changed to South Korea. Nixon had started a diversion, so I didn’t go into combat. I was in the combat zones in South Korea on the DMZ but we never got shot at that I know of, so it really doesn’t count. We just played games for 13 months, wasting two years of my life before I got out. My hat is off to the real soldiers, and I mean that. God bless you guys, everybody who went into a firefight and didn’t run is a hero. Every one of you!

One of our last conversations involved that momentous trip in 1976 and his role in the visit. As a member of the team who officially welcomed the queen at the Albermale Airport, he recalled his brief encounter withOnroyalty.thetrip from the airport to the campus, thousands lined up along Route 29 to greet Queen Elizabeth.

One night I was Sergeant of the Guard, and we were just south of the DMZ, guarding an engineer company and their equipment. Everybody was irritated because nobody pulled guard duty for us, we had to pull duty both for our stuff and the engineers. There was a roughly 100-foot cliff the engineers had set up their tent at the bottom of, and our tent was above it on the ridgeline. My squad was standing at the edge of the cliff, looking down. I had an artillery simulator with me. It’s like a flashbang grenade as they call them now, only much bigger. It was a simulation of an artillery round going off, with a huge explosion and the flash, but no

“Oh shoot, I can’t believe he did that!” I thought. We watched it bounce two or three times going down the cliff. On the last bounce, it rolled into the tent. The simulator went off and the engineers came bounding out, bent over double, wearing nothing but underwear, coughing and blinded by the flash. I couldn’t believe it had rolled inside their tent! I laughed so hard I almost gagged. I couldn’t breathe. I went back to the guard tent and waited for the MPs to come get me for fragging the engineers, but they never showed up.

Stevens said, “You can’t pull guard duty; you’re the Sergeant of the Guard!”

I replied, “I am, sir.”

I was feeling around quietly for something hard I could hit him with, and all I could grab were my boots. My cot must have squeaked, because he dropped the match and took off like crazy. His feet were pounding that dirt road for the longest time. I shouted, to speed him along.After things quieted down and I was lying on my cot thinking about how I had been waked up, a Jeep came sliding up to the front of the tent with the headlights on bright, and I figured “This is it, they’re coming for me.” I walked outside with my shirt unbuttoned, my dog tags swinging, boots on without socks,and no hat.

Years after that visit I spoke with a man who served on the greeting committee at University of Virginia and he recalled his experiences that day as he accompanied the queen from the airport to the campus.John Herring served as director of Newcomb Hall

The guard duty rules with the engineers were that nobody had to patrol anything, but somebody had to stay awake. After the evening was wearing off everybody was bored, and the ones who were supposed to be on duty fell asleep. I had gone to sleep as well, thinking that when they change duties and wake up the next guy, they would wake me up also.

I saluted, saying, “Lieutenant, Sergeant Agnew, Sergeant of the HeGuard.”said, “Where’s your guard—who’s on guard duty?”

Queen Elizabeth returned to the area in 1976 to commemorate the nation’s bicentennial celebration and again visited Williamsburg and other portions of the state, including Charlottesville.

That night (after the artillery simulator incident), we were in a big 20-man tent, and everybody was asleep, including me. I woke up about 3 a.m. when that same young lady kissed me on the lips. As I woke up she pulled back, shaking her head. She blew out the match she was holding, and like a whisper, disappeared under the edge of the tent. I was lying there on my cot, thinking, “Man, that was the best way I’ve been waked up since being in the army!”Afewminutes later, a South Korean thief dressed in all black struck a match, looking around for something to steal.

I never heard a word about the artillery incident and didn’t get busted down to private— that was it. Either the engineers didn’t turn us in, or whoever received the complaint laughed, since nobody was hurt and therefore everything was good.

the mother was, and that’s how I spent the afternoon.

I was fortunate to meet John late in his life as a neighbor. His kindness was immediately evident as he often left goodies on my doorstep for my three small children.

The headlights stayed on, and a voice from the other side said, “This is Lieutenant Stevens, Officer of the Day.”

John’s immense dedication to the arts allowed him to welcome numerous artists and musicians to the campus as he managed and produced the University’s Artist Series.

Across cultures, a friendship blossomed

It’s just a small part of the legacy left behind of a relationship a queen enjoyed with Virginia, a state fortunate to receive her visits several times during her reign.

The first thing that came to mind was, “Sir, my men have been working real hard lately, I’m pulling guard duty for them. I’m giving them the nightHeoff.”was silent for a minute, then said, “Carry on, Sergeant,” and rolled off.

Earlier in the day at a village, I was teasing a young lady about how pretty she was. Her aunt or mother was with her, laughing at the girl’s discomfort because I was teasing her rather relentlessly. I think she was actually enjoying it, and I know

My friend and neighbor passed away in 2012, but the story survives and seems appropriate for this sad week in royal history.

The queen’s party departed early the next morning for Washington and a visit with President Dwight Eisenhower, and we made it to our home in Richmond. It was a visit my parents would recall for years. My sister and I were less impressed as we were probably too young to appreciate the importance of the queen’s visit.

As they progressed along the route, John attempted to ignore the piercing odor not unfamiliar to Virginians, the smell of a Accordingskunk.tohis account, the queen was curious and asked about the origin of the unique odor to which John explained, “That’s a Virginia skunk, Your Majesty,” he said.

A little bit of a clash of cultures there, but we stayed good friends for the rest of the time I was in Korea. She was a good girl, and apparently her mother had overheard the thief, and sent her to wake me up that night, to warn me. Although, I never told her mother how she did it.

By Jack Agnew Contributing Columnist

I did get to thank the young lady for waking me up, saving my bacon twice that night, once with the thief, and the second time when it appeared as if I was on guard duty when the lieutenant showed up. Her mother let us go for a walk in the mountains and on the way back, she started catching grasshoppers and stringing them on a weed, up through the collar on the back of their neck. I asked in my broken Korean (that I spoke pretty well), “Are you going to eat them?” She said she was, so I started helping catch them, figuring that they’ve got to be way better than what they give us in the mess hall. I could find, and she said, “No, that’s silly, you don’t eat the brown ones— they’re bitter! You eat the green ones” I said, “Well, how in the world would I know what color grasshoppers to get; I’ve never eaten one in my life! I’ve never even thought about it.”

Goochland football falls to 0-3 after loss to Armstrong

Goochland football is still searching for its first win this season.Taking on the Armstrong Wildcats at home on Friday, Sept. 16, the Bulldogs got off to a hot start with a 90-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by junior Derek Pierce, but the Wildcats quickly bounced back and pounced on a young defense to the tune of 376 yards of total offense in the 26-14 final.

Eliminating invasive species to open up wooded areas to more sunlight can sometimes be counter-productive. Opening up the canopy to assist native species can also help invasive plants take hold. In my area of Central Virginia, I have a lot of autumn olive (Elaeagnus umbellata). Autumn olive berries feed many species of birds but so in turn the birds spread the berries and propagate more autumn olives.

The wild rose can be grown in USDA hardiness zones 3a through 8b. It’s often seen in coastal areas where other plants fail to thrive. In full summer bloom, they’re a beautiful sight found near the seaside. They’re often the only plant growing other than beach grasses as the Virginia rose is resistant to salt spray. Here in Central Virginia, it prefers sandy soils or loam with a neutral pH from 6.0 to 7.0. Roses will tolerate a wide range of soils as long as the soil is well drained. They will not survive if their roots sit in brackish or boggy water. Roses have long, deep tap roots. A rose bed should be at least 2 feet deep. Fall preparation of the bed is recommended. Allowed to over winter and settle, the bed will be ready for spring planting. Keep roses at least 2 feet apart when planting.

Goochland County Parks and Recreation and the Matthew Smiles Foundation will come together for a 5K Color Run at 7 a.m. Matthew Cabral was a young boy that was full of life and love. In December 2020 the Cabral family and the world lost Matthew to suicide. The Cabral family founded Matthew “Smiles” to help other families find the help they need. The funds raised from this race will help with depression and suicide awareness in youth. The cost to participate is $30. For more information, contact Goochland County

A little bit of knowledge can a be dangerous thing

It’s not hard. I grew mine from seeds taken from rose hips I had gathered. I often collect the hips in autumn to prepare a tasty marmalade. Since there are more seeds than fruit contained in these shiny red fruits, seed saving is easy. It’s easiest to grow from seed. If this isn’t possible, a plant can be started from stem cuttings.

The Carolina Rose, Rosa carolina, is also a native in the Central Virginia region. I have several specimens here on my property in southern Cumberland County. The Carolina Rose’s stems have straight, needle-like thorns. This trait differentiates it from R. virginiana and R. palustris, which have curved thorns. The Carolina Rose’s flower blooms have five light pink petals and a yellow center. Flowers are typically formed on the ends of the current year’s growth. There is no repeat bloom. The Carolina rose’s “hips” are smaller and less sweet than those from the Rosa virginiana. Rosa virginiana, on the other hand, repeats flowering its lovely red blooms at least twice a season.

Advice

The 1 to 3-inch flowers vary from yellow to gold, but here in Virginia they’re more commonly pink or dark pink.

with our native Virginia rose (Rosa virginiana). Multiflora rose can be distinguished by its clusters of numerous tiny red rose hips and a tendency to climb. Its flowers are often white. Multiflora roses were introduced about 50 years ago into Virginia and the Southeast near highways and borders of farmlands to prevent erosion and to help provide food for wildlife. Keep in mind: blackberry bushes form blackberries. Multiflora roses form rose hips. About 15 years ago I was dumbfounded when a neighboring landowner applied herbicides to dozens of blackberry bushes. He confused the native shrubs with the invasive multiflora roses. He thought he had done a good thing. He didn’t. After the herbicides washed into a nearby creek, the land eventually began yielding invasive plants including Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica) as well as our new best friend, autumn olive. When removing invasive plants, it’s important to dig up most of the roots. If this isn’t feasible, apply herbicides before the fruits form. For further reading, on this subject consult the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (DWR) gov/blog/eliminating-invasives-back-yard-40/.https://dwr.virginia.

Where can I plant a wild rose?

Stein wrote, “A rose is a rose is a That’srose.”not entirely true. There are as many roses as famous people that loved or hated them. Our own native rose, Rosa virginiana, sometimes called a wild rose or Virginia rose, attracts pollinators while flowering. Later in the season it provides food in the way of rose hips. Rose hips are what becomes of the spent flowers of a rose. High in vitamin C for all species, the hips serve as autumn food for birds and other creatures. Native rose bushes also offer protective areas for wildlife.

the cost is $40. Participants must be at least 16. For more information contact Goochland County Parks and Recreation at (804) 556-5854.

Tending to backyard vegetable gardens can fill many hours of enjoyable downtime in the great outdoors. What’s more, the bounty produced by such gardens provides healthy, fresh foods to gardeners and their loved Althoughones.spring and summer are widely seen as the peak of gardening season, the mild temperatures of autumn can be a prime time for planting vegetables as well. Certain late-season treats like carrots, kale, spinach, and turnips can thrive in fall gardens. Many different foods are quick crops that can go from seed to table in about six weeks. When sown in early fall, these vegetables will be ready to put on the table for mid-October feasts. Beets, green onions, broccoli, and cabbages can be planted in late summer for fall harvest.

Some plants may need a little protection as they grow if temperatures begin to dip. Cover with a blanket, cardboard box or plastic tunnel to insulate.Remember to water according to the vegetables planted and to keep an eye on readiness for vegetables. Turnips, beets, rutabagas, and carrots can be dug out when the roots are plump and crisp.
