Outdoor showing of ‘Mamma Mia’ is big hit Beach foundation hosts community gathering for community center Richard Leggitt

Even the sunset smiled on the Colonial Beach High School Drifters in their 37- 17 opening-game victory over Randolph Henry Friday night. See story and more photos on Page 7.

It was so cool.

Cheering, clapping and singing to music of the Swedish pop band Abba while watching an outdoor showing of the movie “Mamma Mia” was a hit with hundreds of Colonial Beach residents Saturday night.

The setting was the first of a monthly series of free outdoor movie nights called Cinema on the Green at the Colonial Beach Community Center at 717 Marshall Ave. "It was great to see so many people enjoying themselves," said Karen Grisevich of Colonial Beach Outfitters, which helped organize the event.

People attending the outdoor movie showing joyfully sat in row upon row of golf carts and on blankets, lawn chairs and benches to view the showing of the musical featuring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan.

African-American Trail boosters meet on school sites map Trail seeks to preserve history, promote tourism Phyllis Cook A meeting to discuss and gather information to continue to map locations for an online Northern Neck African-American Education Trail is set for 10 to 11:30 a.m.

Sept. 13 in Montross at the auditorium of A.T. Johnson High School

Museum, 18849 Kings Highway.

That’s one of the first high schools in the Northern Neck to educate students of African descent from 1937 to 1969. It has a museum preserving the history and legacy of African-American education featuring historical artifacts and memorabilia, as well as meeting spaces for events.

The upcoming meeting will be the second in the Northern Neck called by Lisa Hull, economic development and tourism coordinator for the Northern Neck Plan-

ning District Commission.

The first was on Aug. 18 in King George, with eight attendees, some coming from Maryland, and from Caroline County, in addition to King George.

Schools in the American South remained largely segregated prior to several landmark court cases finally forcing desegregation late in the 1960s.

Waterfront fun

As a salute to the looming end of summer, the Colonial Beach Chamber of Commerce hosted the Second Annual Waterfest Saturday and Sunday Aug. 28 and 29. Despite the nice weather, crowds for the weekend event were disappointing. "Business has been kind of sparse," said barbeque vendor Raymond Baylor of Montross. Baylor and more than two dozen other vendors lined the beachfront boardwalk offering food and crafts to those strolling the waterfront. In addition, there were pony rides, an inflatable big bounce and live music. Regina Duller and her 1-year-old daughter, Catalina, were among visitors to the second annual Colonial Beach Waterfest last weekend. Many vendors were disappointed with attendance at the event.

Tropical Storm Hermine blew through the Northern Neck Saturday with high wind gusts that blew away the first day of the 50th Annual Boardwalk Arts & Crafts Festival at Colonial Beach.

Organizers of the popular event cancelled Saturday's activities and added Labor Day to get in the full two-day event.

"I came Saturday, but I only stayed about five minutes” said vendor G.G. Belfield of Warsaw.

"The wind was so bad, my umbrella

was turning inside out," said Belfield, who operates G.G.'s Dog House selling Nathan's hot dogs. "Business was good Sunday and Monday, very steady.

I can't complain."

After the weather delay Saturday, Belfield and the dozens of other vendors spread in booths along the beachfront Boardwalk, offering food, arts and crafts, were delighted with the crowds. Thousands showed up Sunday and Monday to walk, shop and enjoy the beautiful weather that followed Saturday's storm.

Artists and craftsmen participating in the festival lined the Boardwalk

with tents and competed for customers and prizes in what has become one of the longest running events in Colonial Beach.

On display were items including paintings, pottery, jewelry, jams and quilts. "It was good once the weather passed," said Jimmy Willett of Waldorf, who operated Pat's Ceramics with his wife, Pat. "Saturday was way too windy.

It was good that we all agreed to close."

Westmoreland schools holds staff convocation Start of school year brings new faces

By Patty Kelly Long Westmoreland County Public Schools It was a full house at Washington and Lee High School on August 24, 2016, as Westmoreland County Public Schools held its annual Opening Day Convocation.

Superintendent, Dr. Michael Perry, welcomed School Board members, teachers, staff, administration, bus drivers, cafeteria workers, the general public, county administrators, and retired teachers to the yearly celebration.

James Cook, Assistant Superintendent, began with the introduction of new staff positions by introducing new administrators Leslie Steele, Principal at Cople Elementary, Justin Savoy, CTE Director at W&L, and Deputy Kim Simon, District School Resource Officer. Teacher transfers included Ann Lurba, English teacher from MMS to W&L, Jacob Spears, English teacher from W&L to MMS, Elizabeth Johnson, SPED teacher from WD to Cople, Maria Hutt, Pre K teacher from WD to Cople, Kelly Evans, Reading Specialist from Cople to MMS, and Allison Ondovcik, English to Reading Specialist from W& L to MMS.

ward and celebrate their achievement. Ms. Rice then introduced the Westmoreland County Teachers of the Year. Representing Washington and Lee High School was Faye Turner; Cindy Flickinger was Montross Middle School’s teacher of the year; Cople’s Sarah Maier and Samantha Dougherty of Washington District were the elementary level representatives. WMLCPS District Teacher of the Year, Faye Turner, was unable to attend and present. A musical selection by Kelly Wright, Choral music teacher at W&L was presented in honor of the teachers.

She was accompanied by her husband, Rob Wright.

One of the highlights of the morning was the Vendor Row in the hallway. Teachers and guests could visit among the various vendors and compete for some excellent door prizes. Connie Allen coordinates this effort every year.

The WMLCPS Food Service, led

by Hazel Hickman, had a special raffle to raise funds for student gifts throughout the year. Attendees vied for dazzling baskets filled with goodies and surprise gift cards and even a Dallas Cowboy chair. The food service department raised over $1,124.00 on the raffles.

After a sumptuous lunch served by the WMLCPS Food Service Department, Dr. Perry addressed the employees about this year’s focus; fundamentals. He reiterated the importance of effective lesson plans, proper planning, and relative curriculum. This year students will write, in every class, every day. It is an important skill that is necessary for success and their metacognitive skills.

There is a new synergy at Westmoreland County Public Schools.

You can feel it in the hallways of the schools and the classrooms as new and returning teachers prepare for the upcoming year. WMLCPS welcomes its teachers, staff, families and students to a new and exciting school year.

tion were aimed at primary education for younger children, with some training sites to teach work skills for older children.

There were a few private schools for African-Americans with high educational standards, some famously established by Julius Rosenwald, a businessman and philanthropist from Illinois.

At last month’s meeting, Hull displayed a first draft of an interactive web-based map showing some African-American schools and training sites. Several locations were approximated because the buildings no longer exist. Hull explained.

“This is a jumping-off point.

Above, Dr. Michael Perry welcomes staff to the convocation to kick off the school year. Below, Food service chief Hazel Hickman puts last minute touches on items for a raffle to raise money for student gifts throughout the year.

It’s only the beginning. What I’ve started to do is to approximate the locations of African-American schools, and some sites need to be verified and a lot more need to be added,” Hull said. “This is an unpublished map that will be published as soon as we get confirmation about the location, dates of operation and other facts. The idea is to add the information for each, so when people click on it they would get links to websites and more information for each site.”

Hull had distributed paper copies of the draft map with an alphabetical list of what she had so far, including Avalon School, Hygeia School, Howland Chapel, Kremlin School, Ralph Bunche High School, Holley Graded, Julius Rosenwald High school, Little Ark School and Frog Hall approximate.

The group who met in King George came up with some more

and Hull has since added some.

She also made a decision to publish the unfinished map on the Northern Neck website to more easily gather information from anyone with knowledge of locations and/ or names of educational sites of any type for African-Americans prior to actual desegregation.

The direct link to this map site is: http://www.northernneck.org/ african-american-education-inthe-northern-neck/.

The map’s existence on the site will not be promoted until after it gets into a more finished state.

In an email to interested parties after the meeting in King George, Hull explained her reasoning in making the map quietly available online in its unfinished state.

“Seeing it once on a screen at a meeting without the ability to return to the places, descriptions and photos, makes it difficult for

Call Lori at 540-709-7495 for all your personal and business printing needs

you to provide input. This way, you can look at the trail at your leisure - and maybe share with others who were not able to attend the meetings, but who may — have information,” Hull said.

Following the upcoming Montross meeting, future meetings will also be set for Lancaster, Northumberland and Richmond counties.

Those with knowledge of a former training or school site for African-American children are urged to contact Hull to assist in this effort.

For more information, or to provide information to Lisa Hull about sites, send questions or any information/corrections to her email: lhull@nnpdc17.state.va.us.

She can also be reached at the Northern Neck Tourism Commission, 804-333-1919, located at 457 Main Street, Warsaw.

"We are definitely going to do it again," said Grisevich.

There was no admission charged to attend the outdoor showing. The event was organized to support the Colonial Beach Foundation, which is working to turn the old Lion's Club building at the site into the Colonial Beach Community Center, so donations to the foundation were accepted.

"It was the beginning of a long term effort at having something where neighbors can come and meet neighbors," said Eric Nelson of Coldwell Banker Elite, who is a member of the foundation and was one of the sponsors of the event.

There were popcorn and soft drinks available for movie goers, and a breezy night, as well as fogging, helped reduce mosquito problems.

The crowd was well-behaved and enthusiastic, so much so that plans a have already begun for the next outdoor movie night.

"It was a wonderful community event," said Grisevich. "We are definitely doing it again, hopefully the first Saturday of the month, including in October and November. It was a perfect night."

4 hands and 4 feet equals beautiful music at upcoming pipe organ recital A concert by the husband and wife pipe organ duo (and Virginia natives), Elizabeth and Raymond Chenault, will be held at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church (5486 St. Paul’s Road, King George, VA 22485) on Sunday, October 2, 2016 at 4:00pm.

Specializing in and exclusively performing works written for four hands and four feet at one pipe organ console, Elizabeth and Raymond Chenault (“The World’s Premiere Duo-Organ Team”, Atlanta Journal & Constitution) have made a monumental contribution to the organ repertoire through their commissioning, premiering, and recording of nearly sixty organ duets. Mr. and Mrs. Chenault, natives of Richmond, received their Bachelor of Music degrees from Virginia Commonwealth University. After spending several years in Washington D.C., they moved to Atlanta, where they have been organists-choirmasters at All Saints Episcopal Church

for 41 years. Additional information about their career can be found at www.chenaultduo.com The Chenault Duo’s organ recital on October 2 will include Variations on an Easter Theme by John Rutter, Two to Tango by American composer Melinda Clark, Ragtime by American composer Charles Callahan, and the Chenaults’ own arrangement of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom of the Opera. The program will be 90 minutes in length.

The music will be performed on the church’s 2,000-pipe Patrick Murphy pipe organ and the duo will be in full view of the audience.

There is a suggested donation of $10 for adults. Free, off-street parking is available at the church.

OPINION

Wednesday, Sept. 7, 2016 The Journal

www.journalpress.com

Governor isn’t forgetting people many would rather ignore There is one thing about Gov. Terry McAuliffe that both parties can probably agree on.

He doesn’t give up easily. He has two signature passions. Well, David S. Kerr actually when it comes to legislation and initiatives, he has several, but there are two that seem to generate an undying resolve. One is a desire to see Virginia fully participate in the Affordable Care Act. And the second has been to restore the civil rights of felons. Sadly, so far at least, neither initiative has succeeded. But, even with only one year to go in his administration, he’s not giving up.

Most Virginia governors when

they arrive at the executive mansion are ready to fight for whatever platform they were elected on. Some succeed, some don’t. Usually, if their signature cause doesn’t make it, they move onto other things, looking elsewhere for a legacy.

McAuliffe’s legacy may be secured already. He has been the Energizer Bunny when it comes to recruiting and cajoling new businesses to come to Virginia. He has long since said that Virginia’s economic development has been way too dependent on the federal government and he has sought to diversify our economic base.

But, he still hasn’t forgotten about the people that get left behind by the system. There are some 400,000 Virginians who don’t have any access to health care. They’re not covered

by Medicaid and they can’t afford Obamacare. This was why the fed-

eral government provided a reimbursable plan to expand Medicaid.

It was up to the states to accept it.

McAuliffe wanted Virginia to participate. He even proposed a private sector-based alternative that would use the Medicaid money to fund private health care plans offered under the Affordable Care Act. He thought that might appeal to the Republicans in the House of Delegates.

However, the General Assembly would hear none of it. It was Obamacare and that’s all the reason they needed to vote against it.

The economic arguments behind accepting the additional federal money for expanding Medicaid are powerful. Workers would stay healthier longer and avoid the highly expensive treatments, and usually the associated disability payment, that result from untreated conditions; like heart disease, high blood

pressure and diabetes to name a few.

But, that didn’t matter. The arguments were wasted. The General Assembly just keeps saying no.

However, mostly because he just doesn’t like the idea of so many hardworking Virginians being left out in the cold he’s going to push for it one more time. He’ll probably meet with the same amount of luck as before, but, on top of being persistent, he’s also an optimist.

His passion to help felons, former criminals, is relatively new. But, in spite of legal challenges brought by the General Assembly he’s fought back. First he exercised his clemency prerogative to restore civil rights (the right to vote, serve on juries and run for office) to every felon who’s served their sentence and rejoined society.

It was a little awkward at first. It was a big list. And some 12,000 took advantage of the clemency and regis-

tivism”.

Just how did Mr. Lee build a new culture? “… we would not have made economic progress, if we had not intervened on very personal matters - who your neighbor is, how you live, the noise you make, how you spit, or what language you use.

We decide. Never mind what the people think what is right.” In Singapore you could be imprisoned for not speaking English or for selling bubblegum.

Along with preventative detention, caning was popular. Melding

diverse cultures is tough.

Do not confuse diversity with multiculturalism. Mr. Lee didn’t. We have no future with multiculturalism. We don’t want the police state and loss of freedom this will bring, if we last that long. This is not something to leave to your children. The motto found on our coins is E Pluribus Unum, meaning out of many, one. This is not a microaggression. It is the coin of the realm, or there is no realm.

Letter to the editor One who murders is thought of as insane or a heinous being by American culture, but not so much in other cultures. We use terms like, sociopath, psychopath, criminally insane.

Other cultures have honor killings, widow burning, bride dowry killings, and religious exterminations as part of their fabric. This highlights the danger with multiculturalism for a country. No rule of law could exist with these ingredients of multiculturalism.

As a matter of fact, no country can exist with multiculturalism. Just

check with Lee Kuan Yew the benevolent dictator who built modern Singapore out of a collection of Chinese, Indians, and Malays.

"The easiest way to get majority vote is vote for me, we're Chinese, they're Indians, they're Malays. Our society will be ripped apart. If you do not have a cohesive society, you cannot make progress.

“Thereafter, we knew that if we embarked on any of these romantic ideas, to revive a mythical past of greatness and culture, we'd be damned. So, there's no return to na-

tered to vote.

The GOP was convinced this was a Democratic Party ploy to pad the voting numbers with favorable voters. That’s a quirky logic to begin with, but the General Assembly went to court and said offering clemency to so many people exceeded the governor’s constitutional authority. The court agreed.

Virginia is one of the few states in the union that permanently take away a person’s voting rights after they have been convicted of a felony. Funny, some misdemeanors are worse than some felonies, but that’s the rule. So, a person can serve their sentence, return to a useful and productive life, and still not be allowed to cast a ballot.

As far as McAuliffe is concerned these people have paid their debt to society and withholding their right to vote is unduly punitive. Now,

stymied by the court, he is going, one-by-one, through every name on that list of 206,000 and issuing, as appropriate (no violent criminal or sex offenders), the clemency orders necessary to restore the person’s civil rights.

That seems fair enough, but the GOP majority in the House is once again challenging the governor’s action. It’s possible that this time the court may agree with McAuliffe.

McAuliffe may go down as the economic development governor.

But, even if he doesn’t succeed with his special initiatives on Medicaid and restoring voting rights to felons, there are nonetheless a lot of average people who whether they knew it or not, had a governor who was in their corner. He has taken up issues on their behalf that few state executives would ever have pursued with such resolve.

Rodger Meredith, Callao, Virginia

Police news Court denies bond to Fairview Beach man charged with sexual battery King George Circuit Court Judge Herbert Hewitt last week denied bond to a 29-year-old man charged with eight counts of sexual battery and one count of aggravated sexual battery.

Jordan Christopher Rudat of Fairview Beach has been in the Rappahannock Regional Jail since his arrest on Aug. 14, and he will apparently remain in jail until his preliminary hearing on the charges on Oct. 17.

Rudat, a former substitute teacher in Stafford County, is alleged to have acted inappropriately toward a 17-year-old King George girl while both he and the young woman were employees of the Domino’s Pizza shop on Kings Highway.

According to testimony in court, Rudat grabbed and touched the teenager and on one occasion threatened her with a knife while he worked with her at the pizza shop during early August. Rudat is no longer employed by Domino’s.

Rudat has no prior criminal record, is a graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University and has a master's degree from Liberty University, according to his father, Howard Rudat of Stafford, who testified in in court an effort to help obtain bond for his son.

However, prosecutors told the court there is video of Rudat acting inappropriately toward the female co-worker.

Hewitt said he was concerned about the seriousness of the charges and uncomfortable about releasing Rudat into the community where his victim also resides.

Outdoor Report Mark and Missy Fike Fishing was tough in the salt this week due to the nearmiss storm which caused flood tides and left messy conditions as well as horrible winds over the weekend. However, freshwater fishing was not too bad.

Rappahannock River Ken’s Tackle in Spotsylvania reported that anglers had a bit of a tough week. Some anglers did manage some catfish but even that was slow. Most were eating size and a few larger fish were caught.

Potomac River Ken’s reported very little fishing success on the river this past week.

Aqua Land Marina reported slower conditions this past week. Perch anglers were catching some decent fish down to Swan Point on Fishbites and squid. There are plenty of shorty rockfish in the river up to 18 inches, but none of legal size that were reported. Some croaker are still being reported but in fewer number. Those that are catching them are hooking squid on their lines to entice these scrappy 12 to 14 inch fish. Even the snakehead bite was slow.

Inland Motts Run reported much better angling this week than last week. Anglers took 1 to 2 pound bass on an assortment of artificial baits and nightcrawlers. Catfish anglers were catching plenty of fish on chicken liver and nightcrawlers. One angler was having a heyday off the pier catching nice white perch on nightcrawlers.

Hunting Run gave up some nice bream this past week and a few nice catfish. All were caught on red wigglers

and minnows.

Lake Anna has been hit or miss with striped bass hitting jerkbaits early or late.

Saltwater The winds, tides and slop in the water made conditions on the bay and ocean unfishable. Before the blow, some nice Spanish were being caught near Point Lookout down to Windmill Bar. A few cobia were haunting structure. Sheepshead were taking fiddlers near the CBBT and some really nice bluefish were also caught in the middle to upper bay area. Crabbing before the blow was decent.

Hunting: Reports from dove hunters was sporadic action. Much of the reason was due to fields not being ready to cut yet.

Give it two or three weeks and the hunting should improve with late cuttings.

Upcoming seasons: Dove Season Dates: September 3-9 (noon until sunset), September 10-October 30 (½ hour before sunrise until sunset) 15 per day. HIP required.

King George Schools recognized for fundraising activities by heart groups Marjorie ChurchBorne of the American Heart Association/ American Stroke Association recognized and thanked King George County Public Schools for their participation in fundraising activities benefitting the organizations through heart-healthy activities.

Drifters roll to opening 37-17 win over R. Henry Richard Leggitt

Behind the strong running of senior back Lamar Lucas, the Colonial Beach Drifters opened the season with a 37-17 home victory over Randolph Henry Friday night.

"I was pleased with our effort," said Drifters Coach Jeremy Jack.

"First games of the season are always difficult because it's hard to replicate and account for first-game jitters in practice," Jack said. "In spite of being the undersized team physically, our young men played well, overcoming a slow start and penalties."

Lucas rushed around the ends and up the middle repeatedly for 118 yards and three touchdowns.

Cole Setliff had five carries for 32 yards and a touchdown and AnaJai Lewis had 38 yards for Jack's swift single wing attack.

Randolph Henry scored first and then Colonial Beach answered.

Both missed the points after, so the first quarter ended 6 to 6. As

the game progressed, however, the Drifters senior experience and steady ground game allowed Colonial Beach to pull away.

The Drifters scored twice in the second quarter on runs from Lucas and quarterback Alonzo Turner and then Lucas scored twice in the second half on running plays of 18 and 41 yards to put away the game.

"This coming Friday will be a Region 1A East matchup and a difficult one to say the least against Franklin," said Coach Jack. "It is a hostile stadium in which to play but at the same time very exciting.

It will be a test of intestinal fortitude because our two teams rely so heavily on the run."

Following the away game at Franklin this week, the Drifters are again away at Sussex Central on Sept 16 and then come home on Sept. 23 against Chincoteague. Conference 43 play will begin on Oct. 7 as Colonial Beach plays Rappahannock at Warsaw.

Powerful offense, shutdown defense King George Foxes are undefeated Richard Leggitt The King George Foxes are 2-0 after using a powerful offense and a shutdown defense to defeat always tough Essex 20 to 0 last week at the

Trojan's home field in Tappahannock.

"It was very hard fought, but our kids never gave up," said King George Coach Jeff Smith.

"Essex was so big on defense, it was hard to move them," Smith said.

"But our kids stayed with the game plan and we found a way to win."

The victory over Essex follows a Foxes 72-0 opening win over Washing-

ton & Lee and puts King George in a solid position for a successful season.

The Foxes play at home against Liberty Friday at 7 p.m. and then travel to Louisa on Sept. 16. "Each week our schedule gets tougher and we will need to get better," Smith said.

King George wingback Jordan Aley scored two touchdowns and rushed for 129 yards in the win over Essex. And, Cameron Zylonis powered for 51 yards as the Foxes rolled up 227 yards on the ground with their speedy offense.

But it was the second week in a row the Foxes defense, under returning defensive coordinator Robbie Henderson, was a key to the victory and held an opponent scoreless.

Defensive back Ashton Howard returned an interception 85 yards for a touchdown to close out the King George win.

"Our kids have bought into what we are doing on defense," said Smith.

"Coach Henderson has made a big difference this year. We are putting up points, but we are also stopping teams."

Keys on the defense are defensive end Jamal Clark, nose guard Hunter Dobson, linebacker Remington Green and defensive backs Devin Williams, Jordan Aley and Ashton Howard.

"It was a good win for both the offense and the defense," said Smith.

"It went four quarters, but we found a way to win."

That is something fans of the Foxes are hoping will continue as the season progresses.

Fire & Rescue Chief Moody praised for attaining international certification

Photo by Richard Leggitt

What’s hanging at Town Hall

Talented artist Eric Nelson of Coldwell Banker Elite, who is a member of the Colonial Beach Planning Commission, proudly poses with his paintings that are on display at town hall as part of the Colonial Beach Artists Members Show.

Phyllis Cook King George Fire & Rescue Chief David Moody was praised by the Board of Supervisors for his award of the professional designation of “Chief Fire Officer,” held by only 1,132 people worldwide and 67 people in Virginia, including both active and retired personnel.

The achievement for public safety excellence was conferred by the Commission on Professional Credentialing following Moody’s successfully meeting their stringent criteria encompassing all aspects of his position in the job and in the community.

Supervisors Chairwoman Ruby Brabo congratulated Moody at the board meeting on Aug. 16.

Moody responded briefly. “I thank you very humbly,” Moody said.

Following the meeting, Moody said a little more about the designation and talked about the process.

Once all the requirements are met, the application process takes about a year, including use of a peer review model to evaluate candidates.

“This CFO designation is a very thorough and stringent process. It seeks a combination of formal education, experience, and personal development,” Moody said. “I am proud to have received this national recognition, but more importantly I am very humble to have represented our King George Fire & Rescue team.”

Moody is also a graduate of the National Fire Academy's Executive Fire Officer program.
