Behind the Stethoscope: Meet theof Culpeper Image suggestion: Headshot Dr. Pranav PatelMedical Center Providers What is oncology and how does it differ from hematology? Oncology refers to the study and treatment of cancer, while hematology focuses on blood disorders, including blood cancers as well as benign conditions such as blood clotting disorders or anemia. The two specialties overlap when it comes to treating blood cancers.

Culpeper Medical Center, a Novant Health UVA Health System facility, strives to provide quality, comprehensive healthcare to the Culpeper community from a team of talented medical professionals. Here you can get to know one of our providers, Dr. Pranav Patel. Pranav D. Patel, MD, chief of the department of medicine at Novant Health UVA Health System Culpeper Medical Center How long have you been practicing medicine? 13 years, since I finished my residency in 2006. What is your background? I studied at Texas A&M Health Science College of Medicine before joining the U.S. Army through their Health Professions Scholarship Program. During my 11 years in hematology-oncology, both at Walter active duty and four years in the Army Reed Medical Center (Bethesda, MD). Reserves, I completed a residency in internal medicine and a fellowship inBehind the Stethoscope: Meet

What made you pursue a specialty in hematology-oncology? When I was doing my residency, there was a lot changing in the field of oncology and the growth of personalized medicine was driving new approaches for treating patients. I was drawn to both the science of cancer treatment and the interpersonal relationships that providers in this field often build with their patients during their treatment journeys. About 75% of my work today is cancer-related, while the remaining 25% is for benign conditions.

Hematology-oncology services, primarily, but we also offer infusion services as a courtesy to the community. We see patients with disorders such as lupus, inflammatory bowel disorders and more who need infusions, but don’t want to go outside of Novant Health UVA Health System to get them. We’re able to provide them at our practice and avoid a redundancy in personnel. What are you most passionate about as a provider? My biggest focus is being a patient advocate and determining how to care for individual patients as we treat cancer. Every diagnosis is different. We try to focus on approaches that maintain quality of life, and whatever that means to each patient. If it’s a case we can’t cure, managing symptoms is important. For curable cases, I try to be their cheerleader getting them through treatment and recovery.

COMMUNITY NEWS

Public meeting on Chronic Wasting Disease to be geld in Culpeper The Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) confirmed Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) for the first time in Culpeper County in February 2019. The Department will hold a public meeting on August 28, from 7:00 – 8 PM, at the Culpeper County Board of Supervisors meeting room located at 302 North Main Street, Culpeper. In response to the recent detection of CWD in Culpeper County, DGIF has created a Disease Management Area (DMA2) that includes Culpeper, Madison, and Orange counties and variety of regulatory changes have been enacted within DMA2 to minimize the spread of the disease. Deer feeding is now prohibited year round in DMA2 and whole carcasses (and certain carcass parts) cannot be exported from DMA2. Hunters that are successful in DMA2 on November 16, 2019, are required to submit their deer for CWD testing but hunters that harvest deer in DMA2 at any other time of the season are encouraged to submit their deer for voluntary CWD testing. In addition, Earn A Buck is now in effect on private lands in Culpeper County. These regulatory changes, in addition to other aspects of CWD management strategies enacted in DMA2, will be discussed at the public meeting on Aug. 28. Additional information for individuals planning to hunt in DMA2 can be found at https://www. dgif.virginia.gov/wildlife/diseases/ cwd/cwd-informationfor-hunters/ CWD has been detected in twentysix states and three Canadian provinces. In Virginia, a total of sixty-eight deer have tested positive since 2009. This incurable disease, found in deer, elk, and moose in North America, is a slow and progressive neurologic disease that ultimately results in death of the animal. The disease-causing agent is spread through the urine, feces, and saliva of infected animals. Noticeable symptoms, though they may not appear in animals for over a year and a half, include staggering, abnormal posture, lowered head, drooling, confusion, and marked weight loss. There is no evidence that CWD can be transmitted naturally to humans, livestock, or pets, but the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advise hunters to test all deer harvested from known CWD-positive areas and to not consume any animals that test positive for the disease. Regulations pertaining to CWD, maps of affected states, and information about CWD can be found on the DGIF website at: www. dgif.virginia.gov/wildlife/disease/ cwd.

LOCAL NEWS Town opens splash pad at Rockwater Park ➤ Residents rejoice as park opens a week before school starts By Jeff Say Culpeper Times Staff Writer Culpeper’s kids had one last chance to cool down before summer ended last week - as the splash pad at Rockwater Park hosted its soft opening. Last Monday, the water came on at the park and word quickly spread throughout Culpeper as hundreds of families converged on Culpeper’s newest park. On Thursday Michelle Lieb watched her son Judah happily jump from each feature of the splash pad, water flying up from under his feet. “This is something the community needed,” she said. “My son, for the last six weeks before it was built, he asked

if we could go by once a week to look at the progress on it. We took pictures and watched as they were building it and he asked questions (of the construction crew). Of all the kids in the community I think he was looking forward to it the most.” Lieb said her family would travel to go to other splash pads, but now her son’s favorite is right in town. He’s so inspired, he wants to design splash pads when he grows up. The splash pad features two buckets that fill with water and then come crashing down on the youngsters, three rock formations that shoot out water, numerous sprinklers and a spinning sprinkler that children took turns pushing around. Carolyn Johnson took her grandchildren Ethan and Nell Johnson on Thursday for the first time to the splash pad. “The children absolutely loved Rockwater Park,” she said. “ We couldn't wait for the park to open and

Town of Culpeper Director of Planning and Community Development, Charles Rapp said that the town decided on a soft opening since it was delayed from the original planned date of the start of summer. “We got to a point we could allow folks to use it,” Rapp said. “Everybody has been super happy. It’s been a positive response and the hope was to have it open earlier in summer but everybody has loved it. Everything has been working pretty well so far. The splash pad featured a recirculation system that includes a number of different filters - paper, sand and a UV filtration system, and chlorine. Rapp said the splash pad has “a lot” of automation and that when it’s not in use, the water that comes in via rain will be bypassed to the storm water system. During the past week and a half, the site has been monitored by Culpeper Public Works employees. “It’s always going to be monitored, we’re a little heavy on it now,” Rapp said. He said that the pH is checked during the day and they check the filters every morning. The automated

sprinkler system turns on at 8 a.m. and turns off at 8:30 p.m. They plan to keep the splash pad open until Oct. 15. The pad was designed by Great Southern Recreation - a company that has created splash parks all over the southeast. The town has benches that they still have to install, but Rapp said that may take adjusting the umbrellas and pouring concrete - something that will have to wait until October. “They’re probably a little closer than we like at the moment,” Rapp said of where the umbrellas are located. Rockwater Park features 32 acres of rolling farmland that includes a disc golf course, nearly a mile of paved walking trails, a pavilion for picnics and gatherings and excellent bird-watching opportunities. Culpeper Town Manager Chris Hively said he was blown away by the response from the community. “I was pretty amazed, less than 24 hours after we made it (the splash pad) operational - without any notice it was almost full of families, the word got out there really quickly,” he said. “It’s been a tremendous success so far. It will be interesting to see what the sustained demand is.” Hively said that there had been a lot of interest in the splash pad and a lot of citizens had asked for the town to install one.

“It was a tremendous need,” Hively said. “I’ve heard a lot of positive comments from citizens that said they needed this in their backyard. I’ve heard people from Warrenton and Fredericksburg have come.” The other component of the park is the “ninja warrior” obstacle course that is being worked on now. It was not part of the soft open and Hively said the contractor started installing the safety flooring on Monday. They anticipate having that finished by the end of this week and then once they are sure it is completely done, the town will open it up as well. The obstacle course includes a 10foot climbing rock, and various obstacles made popular by the American

Parks and Rec interns learn valuable skills

➤ Eggertson, Higginbotham and Bowers help out during the summer months By Jeff Say Culpeper Times Staff Writer

Ever wonder how the fields at the Culpeper Sport Complex are always perfect? Ask Bryson Higginbotham and Hunter Bowers. The duo got an inside look at how the Culpeper County Parks and Recreation department go about preparing the athletic fields in the county as two of the three county parks and rec interns this summer. Along with office intern Ashley Eggertson, the duo picked up valuable skills when it comes to learning some important life lessons. Higginbotham, 17, a sophomore at Orange County High School said Culpeper County Parks and Rec Parks Superintendent Mike Skelton taught he and Bowers the value of hard work. “I like anything with equipment, mowers, that’s what really got me into this,” Higginbotham said. “It’s helped me a lot, I’ve learned how to change mower guides, I learned how to operate zero turn mowers.” He credited Skelton with teaching him

a lot - especially when it came to turf management. Bowers, 18, a 2019 graduate of Culpeper County High School, said he found out about the internship while looking for a summer job on the county website. In the process of becoming a firefighter, Bowers said the internship taught him valuable life lessons. “It’s been hands on a lot more than things you’re taught in school,” he said. “I’ve learned a lot more than I thought I could.” A baseball player at CCHS, he always appreciated how the fields were meticulously kept, but didn’t know what went into it. This year, he got an opportunity to operate the sod cutter and to run the tractor at the baseball fields at the sports complex. “I knew how to do mowers and weed eaters, but I had never driven a tractor or operated the sod cutter before,” Bowers said. Bowers encourages young people either still in high school or moving on to college or into the workforce to apply for the internship next summer. “It’s all good information to know whether you’re interested in it or not, everyone has to take care of a yard at some point,” Bowers said. Skelton said having two interns in the field this year was a huge help, adding to ➤ See Interns, Page 7

Culpeper Times • Aug. 15-21, 2019

➤ Interns, from Page 6 their normal workforce of five full time employees (counting himself.) “You quickly discover what type of skills they have, and we put those skills to work,” Skeltons aid. “There’s a lot of moving parts out here and they’ve been a part of all those. One other thing I think they’ve found is that you’ve got to have a strong work ethic. I think that’s something we teach as well. We do every job as best we can.” The interns work on the 21 fields at the sports complex, the five fields at Lenn Park and help take care of the disc golf course at Spilman Park. “It’s a tremendous amount of acreage covered and they cover it all every week,” Skelton said. While the two young men are getting their hands dirty in the field, Ashley Eggertson is behind the scenes helping making sure everything runs smoothly in the office. The daughter of Culpeper County Administrator John Eggertson, Ashley has been working the Parks and Rec department for the past two summers - this year she applied for the internship and added that title to her resume. The rising sophomore at Virginia Tech was working over her winter break when Tabitha Riley, the Parks and Rec Program Director, recommended she apply for the internship. “This year I’ve been helping out a lot with the programs that have been going on, I’ve planned two programs on my own,” Eggertson said. “I planned films on the field that we did. “It’s kind of stressful, but I enjoy it,” she said. Majoring in human development with

a plan to go into either elementary education or social work, Eggertsbon said Riley gave her as much experience as she could working with young people. “I just love them (kids), they’re just so pure, and they’re always so happy and it’s so easy to make them happy,” Eggerston said. This summer, she planned a summer day camp and an outdoor athletic program. She worked in the office, answering phones and questions from the public while getting a hands on experience of planning events and promoting them. “It’s helped a lot,” Eggertson said. “I’ve learned that things don’t always go the way you’ve planned them to, but that’s not always a bad thing.” It was an eventful summer for Eggertson, the last she’ll spend at Parks and REc. “I also feel like I’ve done all I can do here,” Eggertson said. “It’s been great for me, but I feel like it’s time for a new step.” She too encourages young adults to apply for the internship, as it’s helpful for anyone going into education, marketing or field management. She said learning from the staff was the best part of the internship. “It’s great because they all have so much experience in their fields,” Eggertson said. “With Kathy (Fulcher) I got to see the money managing side of it, with Tabitha I got to see the managing the programs side of things and the running program I planned was John’s idea, so he pushed me to do that. I learned a lot from it.” The Parks and Rec department will post the internship on the county website in the early part of 2019, visit www.culpepercounty.gov after January 1 to keep an eye out for it.

In Philadelphia, Arnold began to associate with British loyalists and became smitten with 18 year old Peggy Shippen. Peggy was the daughter of wealthy Philadelphia loyalist Edward Shippen. Arnold began to live extravagantly and many began to question if his wealth came from covert dealings with the British. Although he successfully secured Peggy’s hand, his extravagance and imprudence ultimately drove him into debt. Continental officials could not confirm Arnold’s suspected betrayal until 1780, when hard evidence of his treason was uncovered. After receiving command of West Point ➤ See Arnold, Page 11

Born in the British colony of Connecticut in 1741, he was the only child out of 11 to survive to adulthood. He spent his young adulthood as an apothecary and merchant, but served in the militia as well. Arnold quickly established

➤ Arnold, from Page 10 in 1779, Arnold willingly provided the British with vital information for taking control of it. West Point was one of the most important defensive sites along the Hudson River. Although by this time the British had turned their attention to the southern colonies, West Point was still a critical point along the communications and transportation routes for the Patriots. On September 23, 1780 after meeting with Arnold and receiving documents on West Point’s defenses, British spy, Major John Andre was captured trying to make his way back to the British ship, Vulture. The three unsuspecting New York militiamen John Paulding, David Williams and Eric Van Wert stepped out of the woods, stopped Andre, questioned, undressed him and found the hidden documents in Andres’ stockings beneath his feet. Andre tried to bribe the three to release him, but instead they turned him over to Col. John Jameson – one of the original Culpeper Minutemen – who was commander of the Tarrytown area of New York. Unfortunately, his commanding officer was General Benedict Arnold. Col. Jameson received and questioned Andre, but Andre convinced Col. Jameson that he should be sent to General Arnold for questioning. Col. Jameson agreed,

but soon countermanded the order after discussions with Benjamin Talmadge, George Washington’s spymaster. Col. Jameson instead sent a note to Arnold, unknowingly tipping Arnold off that he was about to be unmasked, and had the papers sent to General Washington. When Arnold realized what had been uncovered, he made haste to get to the Vulture. Arnold successfully escaped. Andre was not as lucky. He was hanged a couple weeks later. Arnold would go on to lead a British invasion of the Virginia tidewater area in 1781. While his military maneuvers we successful, lack of support from British loyalists and the zeal of the American Patriots would end the war at Yorktown later that year. After that, the British didn’t have much use for Arnold, and sidelined him from military service. He and his family lived alternately between London and New Brunswick. He struggled with poor business decisions, debt and his reputation and ultimately died in London in June 1801. For his part, Col. Jameson was chastised by General Washington for allowing Arnold to get away. It was later said that Col. Jameson only did what was correct as an officer following the chain of command, so no lasting punishment came from the incident. The important part was that West Point remained safely in

American hands thus preventing a disastrous end to the Revolutionary War. This allowed the United States of America to become the country it is today. Alexander Hamilton stated that “the conduct of Andres to that of his captors formed a striking contrast. He tempted then with the offer of his watch, his horse and any sum of money they should name. They rejected his offers with indignation and the gold that could seduce a man high in esteem and confidence of his country who had memories of past exploits the motives of present reputation and future glory to prop his integrity, had no charms

on three simple peasants leaning only on their virtue and an honest sense of their duty. While Arnold is handed down with execration to future times posterity will repeat the names of Van Wert, Paulding and Williams.” Charles C. Jameson is a member and past president of the George Washington Carver Regional High School Alumni Association, vice president of the Culpeper Minute Men Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution, member of the Board of Trustees for the Museum of Culpeper History, and member of the Culpeper Branch #7058 of the NAACP.

What’s Happening AUG. 16 FILM • BEVERLY OF GRAUSTARK

(MGM, 1926) Marion Davies stars in this romantic comedy as Beverly, an American college girl, who gets talked into masquerading as her cousin Oscar (Creighton Hale) who happens to be the Prince of Graustark, a small European monarchy. Complications arise when she falls for her bodyguard (Antonio Moreno), a shepherd who rescues the "prince" from an ambush. The film, often cited as Davies' most profitable, was directed by Sidney Franklin with a screenplay by Agnes Christine Johnston based on one of the Graustark series of novels by George Barr McCutcheon. Also on the program, the two-reel comedy short “You’re Darn Tootin’”(1928) starring Laurel and Hardy. Live musical accompaniment will be provided by Ben Model. 35mm archival film print from the Library of Congress Film Preservation Lab in 1978. 70 min. 7:30 p.m.

LIVE MUSIC • Enjoy dinner or a drink to Teddy Deal at Grass Rootes, 195 E. Davis Street, 540-7644229. No cover. FILM • YOU’D BE SURPRISED (Paramount, 1926) Raymond Griffith, the tuxedoed and top-hatted comedian who delighted silent movie audiences with his quirky plots and witty comedic touch, stars as a coroner detective called to the scene of a murder most foul, which ruins his plans to spend the evening at the theater. When the search for the killer turns out to be more complicated than he had expected, he must use every trick in the book to reveal the culprit. This sophisticated comedy murder mystery was directed by Arthur Rossen and the title cards written by humorist Robert Benchley are a particular highlight. Also on the program, the two-reel comedy

short “Dog Shy”(1926) starring Charley Chase. Live musical accompaniment will be provided by Ben Model. 35mm archival film print, 66 min.2 p.m.

FILM • THE PAJAMA GAME (Warner Bros., 1957) This adaptation of the hit Broadway musical - with much of its original cast intact - virtually defines the word "exuberance.''

Richard Adler and Jerry Ross' songs include "Hey, There'' and "Hernando's Hideaway."

Culpeper Times • Aug. 15-21, 2019

Anatomy of an operating agreement “Exactly what He wrote is exactly what He meant to be Katherine Charapich true for your life.” That truth shared by Priscilla Shirer made me stop in my tracks, followed by a deep desire to proclaim to all, “The playbook is already written, and the author is the One you can trust.” If you have a tendency towards being analytical, then you may analyze every spoken word, each written word, and all actions. The analyst may assign varied levels of credence depending on the origination – the knowledge and experience of the author, or the trustworthiness of the person or entity. The same is true when considering actions taken in estate planning. When one may be in the throes of establishing a business, far from that person’s mind may be the consideration that if the foundation of that business is comprehensive, then estate planning is being affected. The focus may mainly be on what many consider the “fun action items” related to a new business: refining the product or service, deciding whether there is a need for a bricks and mortar front or if a virtual office is sufficient, selecting the perfect business name, creating the logo, choosing a tag-line, developing the website, creating marketing pieces, identifying the team of professionals who will provide continuous support and counsel, applying for an EIN, opening a business bank account, and having protective contracts drafted that are applicable to the products or services the business will be offering to the public. Embedded in the excitement of starting a new business is, or should be part of the process, creating the foundational document that sets forth, delineates, and controls the terms by which the business operates. If one is now in her fifties or older, she grew up hearing about corporations and partnerships and their respective by-laws and partnership agreements. The hybrid of the two entities are called Limited Liability Companies (LLCs). The terms that guide the running of an LLC are memorialized in an operating agreement, which is a document that contains the governing rules related to the entity’s financial and operational decisions. In § 13.11023 of the Code of Virginia 13.11023 the parameters and use of an operating agreement are set forth. “The members of a limited liability company may enter into any operating agreement to regulate or establish

ESTATE STEWARDSHIP

the affairs of the limited liability company, the conduct of its business and the relations of its members . . . An operating agreement may contain any provisions regarding the affairs of a limited liability company and the conduct of its business to the extent that such provisions are not inconsistent with the laws of the Commonwealth or the articles of organization.” In addition to including what may be called traditional terms found in an operating agreement, such as: memorialization of formation, powers and duties of members, powers and duties of the manager, indemnification, insurance, capital accounts, allocations of profits and losses, distributions, and accounting and bank accounts, a person forming an LLC may want to consider addressing retaining control of one’s entity. Articles addressing maintaining control of an entity that are part of comprehensive estate planning include: who may be the manager and successor managers if you - the founder of the entity become incapacitated, succession – transfer of financial/economic interests and/ or voting rights, control of voting rights (a control interest), and the dissolution and winding up of your entity. “Start a business. It will be fun, they said.” Yes, it is enjoyable; it is also a lot of hard work and requires a significant amount of foresight. Picture having dreamed about running your own business, and day one arrives – ribbon cutting included. The fruits of your sacrifice and labor are paying off, and there is a high demand for your products and/or services. You are able to help many and are making a difference in your community. Time passes, and the unexpected occurs. You are in an accident and become mentally incapacitated. Now what? Your family was dependent on the revenue stream provided by your entity, and you failed to address such an occurrence in any documentation. What about the possibility that when you pass, you would like your beneficiaries or heirs to inherit your entity, yet you have not made any provisions in a controlling document, so your beneficiaries or heirs receive only financial interests and not controlling interests. In fact, you made no preparations for your entity to continue following your death. In addition, picture your company doing so well, that not only has it grown so rapidly that the physical location that you once thought was expansive is failing any projected accommodations. In fact, you have been asked to offer your products/ services in two locations with higher

density than your present location, causing you to consider the logistics and provisional means of attaining the ability to service such an economy of scale. You develop a roadmap and business plan for such an expansion. You decide such growth will require a capital investment, and you are willing to exchange a percentage (or units) for the needed capital investment. The exchange occurs. Though the capital investment enables your entity to continue to grow, you got caught up in the excitement and daily “to-do list,” and failed to plan for the “what ifs.” That money, the capital infusion that was “all so important,” just acquired a different look, with possibly a lot of authority. The “grantor” of the money has become mentally incapacitated, and his agent under his power of attorney is now in a position to vote his interests because you made him a member with both financial and voting interests, and did not preclude agency authority in a controlling document. A scenario that may present an even more precarious picture is the death of the “grantor” of the capital contribution. In your controlling document you may have set forth terms that permitted a beneficiary or heir to inherit both financial and voting rights from an interest holder. Such planning that is not comprehensive could mean that a complete stranger now holds an interest in your entity – yes, this company that you built from a dream with your own talents, sacrifices, and investments. Perhaps, including a right of first refusal, giving you the right to purchase any and all interests upon the death of the “grantor” of the capital contribution, may have been a wise consideration. The Code of Virginia establishes the authority for an operating agreement to be the governing document of an LLC. The Code of Virginia also has default language in the event there is no operating agreement in place. TD Jakes stated, “There is entrepreneurship in your house. There are companies in your house. There are ministries in your house.” If you have been given a dream – pray about it, pursue it. Use your talents to help people, to enrich others, and to make our community a better place. While building that entity, give due respect to protecting your efforts. Draft a comprehensive operating agreement that anticipates the “what if” scenarios, making it a playbook that you can trust.

Town dedicates Lake Pelham Dam project By Jeff Say Culpeper Times Staff Writer The Town of Culpeper celebrated the rehabilitation of Lake Pelham Dam Thursday morning, the culmination of a 10-year project. The USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service assisted with the rehabilitation, started in 2009 and later partnering with the agency to develop rehabilitation plans and designs and complete construction this year. NRCS and the local sponsors used federal funds allocated under the "Small Watershed Rehabilitation Amendments of 2000" to leverage state and local funds for these projects. The Town of Culpeper acquired additional property from the Lakeview Homeowners Association to extend the Lake Pelham dam and partnered with the HOA to develop a connector trail. They also coordinated the design with a master park plan to maximize future recreational access. These newly refurbished dams will offer flood protection for local roads, highways, businesses, and residences for the next 50 years. The project cost $17.8 million

but a majority of that was covered through federal and state funding. The town entered a cost sharing agreement with the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation in 2014 that lowered the town’s cost for the rehabilitation of the dams at Lake Pelham and Mountain Run Lake to $2.9 million. Clyde Cristman, Director of the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, explained the rehabilitation came about because of state mandates and it was a collaborative effort that made the process move quickly in essentially a seven-year time frame. “A lot of our job is communicating the need, and getting people engaged so they understand,” Cristman said. “We do get a lot of folks saying this was an unfunded mandate, while there may not have been funding when the problem was first identified but by working collaboratively with the town, with the state, with the feds, we were able to identify funding sources.” The new rules and regulations put into place 10 years ago made it mandatory that a dam be able

The Town of Culpeper dedicated the dam at Lake Pelham Aug. 9. to withstand a storm that would dump three feet of precipitation in 24 hours. “The likelihood of this to fail, it would take an incredible storm event,” Cristman said. He said that the rehabilitated dam will stand the test of time. “Even a brand new dam like this requires regular maintenance,” Cristman said. “This dam is going to outlive me by far, I think the time frame on these are

100 years.” Culpeper Mayor Mike Olinger laid out the timeline of the dam rehabilitation project noting how quickly it came together. “A whole lot was achieved in a short number of years by a whole bunch of folks,” Olinger said. “For me personally, this was a long time coming and it’s a pleasure to say after 10 years, we’re done,” Culpeper Town Manager Chris Hively said.

When thinking of summertime, many images come to mind: beach vacations, lounging by the pool, glasses of lemonade. However, one of the best parts of summer is that it creates more opportunities to be active. And that is exactly what Culpeper County Parks and Recreation intends to do. There are many camps and activities for people of all ages, and they all provide the opportunity to both sweat and have fun. Program and Facilities Supervisor, Tabitha Riley, who has worked at Culpeper County Parks and Recreation for almost 15 years, spoke about the many programs going on this summer. One of the most popular programs was the Kaleidoscope Art Camp, which happened last month. The camp was held for an hour and a half each day for a week, and the kids were able to try something new each day. “Everyday is a different media. So one day they're painting, one day they're doing a craft, one day they're drawing,” Riley said. And not only were they able to flex their artistic muscles, but they were also able to share their masterpieces with friends and family. “We keep all their art projects at the end of the week we do a little art show so that they can display everything they've done that week for their parents and friends,” she said. And that’s not the only camp that kids could participate in. Just a few weeks ago was the Lenn Park Camp, which was for ages 6 to 8. She had been spray painting the field for an activity at the camp just that morning. In addition to outdoor physical activity, the children complete art activities throughout the week. Another Parks and Recreation employee, Ann Frias, hosts an athletic program for kids from 2 to 3:45 on Sundays. As Frias puts it, “I tell parents give me your kids, I'll return them back sweaty. I have fun with them and I try to connect on different levels and teach them different you know genres of sports sportsmanship and try to help the

comradery.” However, there are plenty of non-athletic activities for older children and adults that Culpeper Parks and Recreation hosts. For example, they are currently hosting rock band lessons for teenagers. “It's for anybody who plays an instrument or sings that wants to learn how to play in a band,” Riley said, “playing solo is completely different than playing with a group.” The Parks and Recreation Department in Culpeper isn’t just busy in the summer – they constantly have new activities and programs happening. Starting this fall, a new round of activities will begin, and all are welcome to participate. Most of these are beginner classes – classes for those who just want to dip their toe in an activity, and test the water. According to Riley, this mindset applies to many classes, including zumba. “They're fourweek sessions. They meet one day a week for four weeks, 35 dollars. It's a great way to try something,” Riley explained, “So if you see the zumba class going on somewhere and you're just kind of a little intimidated, you don't know if you'd like it, if you're coordinated enough, come out and try it for four classes, 35 bucks. And if you like it keep coming.” Another beginner class is for kids who want to explore horseback riding. Again, this is a great way to try something out before committing to a long-term activity. “Does your 6 year old really want to do horseback riding? Why sign up for a year program and put out all that money? Sign up for 6 weeks with us,” Riley said. Other activities going on in the fall include karate, a beginner French class, a cake decorating class, and even a vegan cookie swap. And there’s more that’s on the list. But all of these options will be shared starting in early August. “Our website registration opens on Aug. 9 so we'll have everything up there a couple days before,” Riley said. Those without a computer will be able to see the fall schedule in the Culpeper Quarterly that is mailed out to every home and post office box in Culpeper County. PHOTO BY IAN CHINI
