Students speak in favor of making masks optional at the Aug. 9 Culpeper County School Board meeting.

School Board votes to make masks optional; governor makes point moot BY PAT FITZGERALD FOR THE CULPEPER TIMES

Less than 72 hours after the Culpeper County School Board voted 4-3 to make masks optional for students and staff, the Commonwealth of Virginia made the point moot earlier this month. A State Health Commissioner Order of Public Health Emergency was issued Thursday, Aug. 12, that requires all students, staff and visi-

tors to wear masks while indoors at K-12 school settings. Culpeper County Public Schools (CCPS) said it is required by law to follow all federal and state health orders. Based on that order, CCPS will require all students, staff and visitors to wear masks while indoors on school property. The policy went into effect Friday, Aug. 13. The order supersedes School Board Policy and will remain in

effect until the CDC guidelines for K-12 schools change, or the order is amended or rescinded. Culpeper County School Board Chairman Marshall Keene, who voted to make masks optional at the Aug. 9 School Board meeting, is encouraging parents to still fight the mask mandate. He shared this message on his Facebook page Monday, Aug. 16: “Getting messages from teachers questioning the religious

exemption option. Good response below, not that anyone owes anyone an explanation. “The Religious Statute of Va simply states your thought/conscience is your Religion. It has nothing to do with your doctrinal beliefs. Along those lines if your conscience tell you that wearing a mask is dangerous, then that thought is your Religion. If your conscience tells you your child may die or become very

“We’ve been advised the mask mandate, not following it, would be a violation of law or it’s a legal requirement. I can’t imagine how much has been spent on legal fees already and the school system really doesn’t have a bunch of money to be spending on legal fees, so I will not be supporting violating a state mandate.” Keene, however, said: “Let’s say we do it and we have an issue with litigation. What does litigation mean, that means they’re going to take it before a judge and a judge is going to tell us you’re going to do it or you’re not it. I get when people say you’re going to get sued that scares everybody. I get it, but at some point, we need to stand up for these people in the audience and the majority of Culpeper County and what they want. We are a representation of them, and not a representation of ourselves.” Brown, who attended the meeting remotely, said: “It would be great to say everyone can choose what they want to do, but that’s not the world we’re sitting in right now. We’ve been advised the mask mandate, not following it, would be a violation of law or it’s a legal requirement. I can’t imagine how much has been spent on legal fees already and the school system really doesn’t have a bunch of money to be spending on legal fees, so I will not be supporting violating a state mandate.” Baker added: “I know maybe 50 people spoke tonight, and I’ll give you each five children, that’s 250 children. We have 8,000, so in all good conscience, I really need to consider 8,000 children, not just 250 — although I love everybody. I certainly don’t want any child to be upset, anxious, sick for any other reason because of a mask. If it’s that traumatic for any child, please see your pediatrician or a health professional and have them say medically your child cannot wear this; it’s such a determent to their lifestyle that they can’t.”

ill from wearing a mask, then that thought is now ‘your religion.’ Religious Exemptions for mask wearing can be used for any reason we choose. It is an inalienable right and protected. James Madison is the one to thank for this,” his post continued. “Please note that in Virginia you do NOT need an organized religion to claim a religious exemption. Your conscience is enough to dictate a religious objection to a medical procedure. The Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom protects this right. The Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom is a statement about both freedom of conscience and the principle of separation of church and state,” Keene’s post also stated. At the Aug. 9 School Board meeting, approximately three-dozen public speakers addressed the mask mandate, as well as transgender and “critical race theory” — the latter two the board didn’t take up. Keene and members Crissy Burnett, Deborah Desilets and Betsy Smith voted for the mask-optional policy, while Vice Chairman Anne Luckinbill and members Pat Baker and Barbee Brown voted against it. “I am not going to support this plan as presented,” Luckinbill stated. “The General Assembly has made the CDC guidelines a mandate. If we don’t follow those to the extent we can, we are not following something that has the force of law. I cannot go against something that carries the force of law. If you know me, you know I don’t want to put kids in masks. I don’t, I don’t like them for all the reasons you said, but we are being told what to do.” “I do not want to enforce a mask mandate,” Desilets said. “I think we need to listen to our parents, they’re the reason we are on the board. I looked at all the stuff from the governor, he changed his mind — it’s a mandate, it’s not a mandate. The governor did not mandate; if he wants to mandate, he needs to come out and mandate them. He has not. He is playing politics, trying to skirt it and get his way without absolutely taking responsibility. “If it’s an emergency mandate form the governor, we have to follow that, but I’m not planning to go backwards now. Our county has some so far forward. We were in-person last year when most counties didn’t even have in-person last year.” Gov. Ralph Northam announced a public health emergency order that Thursday to require universal masking in all Virginia K-12 schools. “It would be great to say everyone can choose what they want to do, but that’s not the world we’re sitting in right now,” Brown said.

State-of-the-art Tech Center dedicated BY PAT FITZGERALD FOR THE CULPEPER TIMES

Culpeper community leaders celebrated the dedication of the stateof-the-art Culpeper Technical Education Center with a ribbon-cutting and grand tour of the $17 million facility Thursday, Aug. 5. “From time to time there are certain days that take the cake and are special days,” said Culpeper County Schools Superintendent Anthony Brads. “This is one of those days. This is one of those days because we are part of the fulfillment of an incredible community vision. The facility on Frank Turnage Drive Culpeper features a sleek design with modern amenities. The entrance gives way to a 428-footlong hallway illuminated by skylights. The expansive hallway is lined with classrooms that will house automotive, building trades, cosmetology, culinary arts, cybersecurity, computer drafting, diesel, emergency medical technician, maker space, nursing and industrial maintenance courses. Brads said the 55,000-squarefoot facility is designed to be net-zero and its roof will soon have a solar array, adding CTEC will be “a mod-

el of efficiency across the commonwealth in terms of its operation and programmatically to what we’re offering to both our students and our community. He said that despite COVID-19 and continual weather issues, the site never shut down — and stayed within budget. “The career and technical education theme has been something that our county board of supervisors has been interested in for a great number of years,” Culpeper County Administrator John Egertson. “They have focused on that, as has the School Board. It’s safe to say it’s an entire community that has pulled together and it’s a reality that we can be proud of. CTEC Principal Sean Summerscales noted that CTEC “will provide our students of Culpeper county the opportunity to gain real-world, authentic learning experiences, leading to industry certifications, dual enrollment credits that will help our students launch forward into their lives after high school.” He added that during a preview tour of the facility, students were impressed with the facility.

They were hoping to gain

some important life skills and they were hoping to make lifelong connections. That really resonated with me.”

Culpeper County Public Schools has won first place honors in the Virginia School Boards Association (VSBA) Excellence in Workforce Readiness Awards. The awards program was created in 2018 by the VSBA Task Force on Workforce Readiness to highlight exemplary programs in Virginia’s Public Schools focused on preparing the state’s future workforce. CCPS won the award for four Career Partners, Inc. (CPI) programs, including Teachers for Tomorrow, Esquared, Mock Interviews and Health Care Day. Career Partners, Inc. (CPI), an established 501(c), facilitates synergy between Culpeper County Public Schools and local businesses by providing both the community representation and the financial backing necessary to ensure work-based learning experiences for our students. The student experiences are reflective of actual economic opportu-

nities within Culpeper. Consisting of a Board of Directors, teachers, school staff and numerous volunteers, CPI operates six educational programs, four of which provide direct workforce readiness opportunities exclusively to Culpeper County students. CPI fosters a steadfast relationship between Culpeper County educators, businesses, and government leadership. This partnership has established student workforce readiness as a cornerstone of economic development by providing opportunities to explore, participate, and engage in real world, locally based work experiences. Winning divisions were recognized at the VSBA Conference on Education, which took place in Richmond on July 20.

community. “It will provide workforce training that will promote economic development in our community,” he added. “I envision our building trades program someday providing affordable homes for people. The

culinary program, I’m sure, will provide catering in the community. One day, we may be able to bring our vehicles in for service. The possibilities are endless for the ways in which this facility will serve Culpeper for decades to come.”

Culpeper residents enjoy, benefit from Airbnb Whether it is a room or two, an apartment or an entire home, Airbnbs are becoming an increasingly enticing way to travel. Culpeper, Virginia is home to at least eleven Airbnbs. According to Airbnb.com, “Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to 4 million hosts who have welcomed over 800 million guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe.” Culpeper resident Stephen Found, 57, has been serving as an Airbnb host since 2016. He said hosting his bed and breakfast, West Park Gardens, on the website has been fantastic as has the company. “It has helped me get through some really tough times,” he said. “It’s been really fun to share what you have and also pay the bills a little bit.” The two gentlemen who created the Airbnb concept had the technology to put a worldwide platform together, online, so that anyone would be able to be an Airbnb host. “All you have to do is set up an account, make a description of the place, take pictures of the house/ room and off you go.” When hosts join, they become a 1099 employee of Airbnb because they are not a commercial entity like a hotel or a

amazing people from all over the world through his hosting experience. Travelers, hikers, historians and wedding parties stay at West Park Gardens which, he said, is a midpoint between North and South. Even people who reside in town stay while their house is being renovated, he added. West Park Garden has seen guests travelling

from China, Japan, Norway, Sweden, Berlin and Scandinavia. Found describes Culpeper as a “really googleable location.” “Believe it or not a lot of people came to Culpeper from overseas because what they would do is start in New York, go to Philadelphia and then go to D.C to see the monuments,” he said. “Then they would say, ‘I want to go to the country,’ and they’d end up here.” Besides the three bedrooms and two baths, West Park Gardens offers a game room with a pool table, coffee makers and televisions in every room, a full kitchen and a beautifully landscaped backyard with fountains, gardens and a firepit. A complimentary breakfast is also offered. He encourages people to relax and unwind when they come to his Airbnb and purposely tries to make it feel like home away from home. Found is very serious about slowing down and seeking down time. “We want people to chill out in the garden, take a walk, just really relax,” he said. “Come here and chill out, don’t necessarily come here with the 30,000 things you need to do in the two hours you have to be here.” To get more information about Airbnb, visit Airbnb.com.

H E A LT H How to avoid injury while running ➤ A physical therapist weighs in on proper training techniques Running is an accessible and inexpensive exercise that is great for your overall health. The benefits of running include building strong bones and muscles, improving cardiovascular fitness and maintaining a healthy weight. However, like any physical activity, sustaining an injury is a possibility. Overuse injuries are the most common types of injuries among runners, especially for novice runners. Often, overuse injuries occur when you increase your running distance before your body has fully adapted to your current limits. “It is important to be patient and gradually work to increase your running time and distance,” said Shane Devlin, DPT, a physical therapist at Novant Health UVA Health System Physical Therapy & Rehab

To learn more about your treatment options at Novant Health UVA Health System Physical Therapy & Rehab, call: Culpeper: 540-829-4460 Madison: 540-948-3620 Powell: 540-829-4162 – Powell. “The challenges for most runners are knowing how injuries occur, how to decrease risk of injury, and when to consult a medical provider.” Below, Devlin offers tips for avoiding running injuries. COMMON RUNNING INJURIES

In most cases, overuse injuries from running involve increased strain on the muscles and tendons of the legs. If these tissues are not conditioned to withstand the loads placed upon them, an acute inflammatory reaction can occur, resulting in pain and stiffness.

Many novice runners also experience shin splints. This condition affects muscles deep in the calf that attach directly to the tibia – the main weight-bearing bone in the lower leg. If left untreated, this can eventually result in a stress fracture. Stress fractures, while not a clean break of the bone, are very painful and can eventually result in a true fracture without proper treatment. Other common overuse injuries include Achilles’ tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis, patellar tendinopathy and iliotibial band (ITB) syndrome. RECOGNIZING WHEN YOU ARE RUNNING TOO MUCH

You should be aware of how much you are running each week, regardless of whether you are a novice or experienced runner. A rapid increase in running distance or pace can make you more susceptible to injury. The 10 percent rule advises

that you only increase your running distance/pace by about 10 percent every two to three weeks. Additionally, keep track of how many miles you are putting on your running shoes. It is recommended that you get a new pair every 350 to 400 miles. If you run several times a week, consider alternating between different pairs of shoes. FUEL THE RUNNER

According to SportMedBC, nutrition is key to maintaining yourself as a runner, and often is overlooked by beginners. Regardless of whether you are running for pleasure or to lose weight, it is important to be mindful of replacing calories burned with foods that boost your energy and add nutrients. The quality of the calories is as important as the quantity. Some foods runners should include in their daily plans are bananas, ➤ See Health, Page 24

Nine-year-old M.J. Gager, of Jeffersonton, has made disc golf her own part-time job, practicing an average of 15 hours a week. Her dedication paid off — she is emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic as a world disc golf champion, with sponsorships to boot. Gager competed against six other girls in the 10-and-under division at the 2021 Professional Disc Golf Association Junior Disc Golf World Championships in Kansas, taking home the first place title on July 10. Gager said she knew she had a good chance of winning, but that she was there to have fun. “The last round there was a NTT TAN IIN ensed & Insured NSSTEADIITT T bunch of people because everyone icensed & Insured More R D NLE!!

ed playing, she was sponsored by Throw Pink, a national nonprofit that encourages women to be more physically active and also works to support women in the male-dominated sport. Gager said the organization has provided her with gear for tournaments, like backpacks, discs, towels and gift cards. Gager was most recently sponsored by Innova, a decades-old company that creates disc golf equipment. Gager’s favorite professional disc golf players are all women — such as Kona Panis, Paige Pierce, and Catrina Allen — and Panis was the one who contacted Gager to share the news of Innova’s offer to sponsor her. “Kona is my top top favorite because she’s amazing,” Gager said. “She gets back to me on Instagram when I text her and she shows me different things … I did a live stream on Instagram and Kona got on it and I got to talk to her for a little bit.” Gager plays primarily at Spilman Park and Jenkins Mountain, and occasionally practices at the course at Little Washington Winery. Carl Henrickson, one of the owners of Little Washington Winery, said he’s watched her practice, and it’s obvious that “there’s something that she’s got.” “There’s a shot that goes through

Gager will be taking a short break before preparing for a local tournament in August. She’s already thinking ahead to next year’s world championships, where she will be competing as one of the youngest players in the 12-and-under division.

R E A L E S TAT E National Funder Creates Environmental Education Opportunities in Local Schools Friends of the Rappahannock (FOR) is excited to announce the recent annual award of $140,082 in grant funds over a three year grant period from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA). This continues part of NOAA’s mission and FOR’s to expand environmental literacy through the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Education and Training (B-WET) program. This grant will fund the implementation of a sustainable Meaningful Watershed Educational Experience (MWEE) program over three years in Culpeper and Fauquier County Public Schools reaching students at several grade levels. FOR hired a full time education manager in the Headwaters office in Culpeper, who will oversee the NOAA B-WET grant and MWEE programs. FOR’s new Upper Rappahannock Educator Manager, April Harper, will be working with local

partner organizations, teachers and public school staff to integrate MWEEs into the schools. One of many organizations helping make the MWEE program possible in Fauquier County Public Schools is the Goose Creek Association. “We are looking forward to working with FOR and the teachers to coordinate a comprehensive approach to the Environmental Literacy Model based on the Chesapeake Bay Education Program,” says Holly Geary, Executive Administrator of Goose Creek Association. This funding from NOAA will allow FOR and partners to work directly with teachers to develop a MWEE program within their curriculum that will be sustainable for years to come. “Every year hundreds of school children visit our property to learn about Virginia’s plants and animals, but we don’t usually get to spend a lot of time with their teachers,”

says Dr. Eleanor Harris, Managing Director The Clifton Institute. “We’re excited to work with Friends of the Rappahannock to teach teachers about watershed conservation and about how to engage their students with this important issue.” Students will be inspired to become future river stewards by learning through creative handson and classroom style MWEE education material. “This is an amazing opportunity to provide memorable, authentic, hands-on experiences with our local watersheds and bring science lessons to life.” explained Linda Corell, Fauquier County Public Schools Instructional Supervisor for Science, Health, & Physical Education K-12. The grant will be renewed annually by NOAA over a three year period. Culpeper County Public School Math and Science Curriculum Specialist, Sue Jenkins is

enthusiastic to see how this multi year opportunity will strengthen Culpeper County Public School’s current MWEE program. “I am excited that Culpeper teachers and students will have an opportunity over the next 3 years to work with the Friends of the Rappahannock and enhance their knowledge of MWEEs, the human impact on water resources, and other Chesapeake related issues. ” said Jenkins. Friends of the Rappahannock is pushing for environmental education in all parts of our watershed creating rising stewards out of all our students. For more information about our Upper Rappahannock B-WET program, email April Harper at april.harper@riverfriends.org.

Poems and Reflections at Middle Street Gallery By Gary Anthes The haiku poem, a gift from 17th century Japan, joins the visual arts at Middle Street Gallery in Washington, Va. through Sept. 5. Reflections – both literal and figurative – also influence the gallery’s works in this all-member show. Haiku, or “one-breath poems,” are simple yet elegant observations about nature or our place in it. Some of the three-line haiku have been written by other poets and some have been created by gallery members. Each one will accompany an artist’s painting, sculpture, photograph or multimedia work. For example, Joan Wiberg’s painting of a bright yellow sunflower against a field of blue, “Summer’s Gift,” is flanked by these words: yellow face looks up nodding to sky and sun... summer’s gift from seed Cathy Suiter-Hry’s watercolor, “Coastal Fog,” is a tranquil view of sailboats at rest, their masts reflected in the water. Her haiku says: fog-wrapped inlet reflected ships at harbor’s edge upended tree shapes Robert Bouquet’s large, semi-abstract stone sculpture suggests

It is located next to The Inn at Little Washington and is open Fri., Sat., and Sun. from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. Masks are optional for fully vaccinated visitors.

s the electric industry evolves, REC works to stay ahead of the curve. REC will be the fi rst electric cooperative in Virginia to launch an energy-efficiency program for member-owners under a new law signed by Gov. Northam. “With this new law, REC can help member-owners invest in energy-efficiency upgrades for their homes,” said Joyce Bodoh, REC’s Director of Energy Solutions and Clean Energy. “We are very excited to hear from Cooperative members as we create this program for them.”

In May and June, REC hosted focus groups to discuss the program, and there will be another opportunity at the end of August for members to participate in the conversation. Members who register will receive a confirmation email after registering with instructions for joining the meeting. “We want to hear the voices of our member-owners so that we can tailor the program to fit their needs and interests,” Bodoh said. “Our goal is to help memberowners access energy-efficiency upgrades and to save money on their electric bills.”

The session will be hosted via Zoom on Aug. 26 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Aim you smartphone camera here to register:

Out-of-town firms still peddle pricey — and phony ‘prizes’ CULPEPER TIMES

The Culpeper Times proudly runs the “Best of the Best” of Culpeper contest, which was recently published. Our friendly rival, the Star-Exponent, has a similar contest. These popular annual rituals give thousands of Culpeper residents the opportunity to support their favorite local businesses. Once the votes are tallied, winners are contacted. Each winning business has opportunities to participate in the “Best of” sections published by each newspaper. Banners and plaques are offered to the top vote getters. It’s a great example of our community

boosting its hometown shops and professional service providers. So, we want to inform businesses that — once again — an out of state company called That’s Great News, located in Wallingford, Conn., is scanning both of our papers and emailing businesses to offer them “Best of” winning plaques for $179 and more. They are also going through our newspapers and offering meaningless plaques to local businesses featured in news stories. And — this really takes gall — the plaques they offer have our newspaper’s logo on them! The plaques and other things this

and similar peddlers are pushing have nothing to do with the real contests that you and your friends and neighbors are voting in now. They are taking advantage of local businesses. We feel it’s important to get this message out so you won’t fall for the scam being offered by unsolicited calls or emails. “Best of” winners will be contacted only by representatives from the Culpeper Times or Star-Exponent. If you received a call about a “Best of” promotion, you can contact either newspaper for verification. At the Times, contact Tom Spargur at 540-812-2282 or tspargur@ culpepertimes.com

Scholarship opportunities abound at Germanna

Did you know that every year schools like Germanna Community College have scholarship funds that go unused? They could be awarded to you. There are numerous avenues available to secure funding for students of all ages. Whether you will be graduating and transferring to a university or are interested in developing skills for a career change, Germanna’s here for you. Help in the form of partial financial aid to full scholarships is available at germanna.edu/financial-aid. Have you heard about G3 Scholarships? They can be your tuition-free path to an in-demand career--no prior experience needed, no cost to you. G3 provides free and flexible, short-term training options for skills-gap careers in Early Childhood Education, Healthcare, Information Technology, Public Safety, and the Trade Skills. The fact that there are not enough trained job applicants in these well-paying fields could provide your personal path to success with no college debt. A four-year college degree isn’t always necessary. Many such in-demand jobs that pay well only require an associate degree. Start with shorter-term job skills training and prepare for direct employment in your chosen career field. Start and pause your training while working – without losing progress toward completing your associate degree. For more information visit: germanna.edu/G3. Are you unemployed or underemployed due to COVID-19? You may qualify for a REV Training Voucher, Re-Employing Virginians, that covers the full cost of classes at Germanna. REV Training Vouchers can help you get back in the workforce

with funds available for qualified applicants. For more information: germanna.edu/REV High school juniors and seniors – did you know that you can apply for Dual Enrollment at Germanna? Dual Enrollment provides qualified high school students with the opportunity to complete college courses while still attending high school, saving time and money. Visit germanna.edu/dualenrollment. Juniors and seniors at Eastern View and Culpeper County high schools may also apply for the Germanna Scholars Program. While completing their requirements for high school graduation, students may also enroll in a structured dual enrollment program leading to an Associate Degree transferable to four-year colleges and universities in Virginia.

Why I am running for the Board of Supervisors In 2007 I was hired to be the General Manager of Culpeper Farmers’ Cooperative Inc. The job brought my family to Culpeper and introduced us to the community David Durr that has become our home. I managed the Co-op for ten years and retired in 2017. Since

Census there are 682 farms in the county covering 124,390 acres. These farms produce over 48 million dollars in products each year. Farms give us open space, help control our taxes, and create the country atmosphere which makes Culpeper special. We cannot take our farms for granted and we must understand the impact changing regulations will have on our farmers. I have over 40 years of experience in agribusiness, and I strongly support our farms. In March of this year a special

that time, I have volunteered with several organizations throughout the town and county and learned to appreciate Culpeper from a different perspective. I am running for the Cedar Mountain seat on the Board of Supervisors because my experience as a business leader and local volunteer position me to help the county work through issues that are important to our future. Agriculture is an especially important business in Culpeper. According to the 2017 Agricultural

the VRE and Amtrak station, said George Boosalis, the president of Boosalis Properties, which represented Grace Street Properties in the purchase. Boosalis said developing the site plan will take anywhere from three to five years with construction starting after that. The development will still have to go through the process of getting permits from the county. The owners want to work with the cur-

rent tenants to see if they want to lease space in the new development or another shopping center the company owns, Boosalis said. Grace Street Properties plans to build 2 million square feet for a mixed-used development, which will include retail space for lease. The developer wants to work with the county to consider a pedestrian bridge from the development to the VRE and Amtrak station across U.S. 1.

election was held to elect the Clerk of the Circuit Court. According to newspaper reports the election, which was approved by the Board of Supervisors, cost the county over $80,000.00. This election could have been incorporated into the regular election this November and saved tax dollars. I have spent my entire career managing farmer owned cooperatives, I know how to control expenses and cut out wasted costs. I do not believe there is a place for partisan politics in local government. The rhetoric of party politics from a national and state level are making their way to local government. I believe that our supervisors should listen to their constituents concerns, work with other board members to solve problems for the county and not hold an allegiance to any party. I am running as an independent. I am running for the Board of Supervisors in the Cedar Mountain district. I believe that by working together using common sense and fiscal responsibility we can move Culpeper forward. More information on my campaign is available at www. votedaviddurr.com I appreciate your support.

oats, peanut butter, broccoli, dark chocolate, plain yogurt, potatoes and whole-grain pasta. Foods with high saturated oil or sugar content should be avoided. Hydration is also key in keeping healthy while running. It can help you maintain a healthy heart rate, regulate body temperature and prevent muscle cramps – especially with warmer temperatures. As a general guideline, drink about 16 fluid ounces of water two hours before you run, about 5 to 10 ounces every 15 to 20 minutes while you are running, and another 16 to 24 ounces afterward. WHEN TO SEEK MEDICAL CARE

If you have pain that persists despite resting and reducing your running volume, then it may be time to consult a doctor who may refer you to physical therapy. Trying to push through the pain may worsen your condition and cause further injury. Physical therapy can help identify some of the contributing factors of your pain and provide treatment to get you back up and running again.

This region covers the counties of Albemarle, Madison, Greene, Rockingham and a portion of Page County. • In Region VIII, Eric Paulson was elected. This region covers the counties of Hanover and Goochland. Board Chairman Shipe noted that REC’s leadership team strives to keep members topof-mind in every decision they make. “As a strategically focused Board, one of our main roles is to listen carefully to your concerns, your ideas and your feedback and to make the best-informed decisions we can to serve you now and to build a sustainable co-op that continues to serve our communities for decades to come. “ Shipe said. Shipe and REC’s President and CEO John D. Hewa shared some highlights from the past year and previewed some items members can look forward to in the coming months:

Darlene Carpenter

Eric Paulson

• In March 2020, REC stopped disconnecting service for nonpayment and eliminated any related late fees. Since that time, REC has worked with member-owners on arranging long-term payment plans and guided them toward other organizations that might be able to provide financial assistance. Earlier this year, REC also distributed $4.8 million of federal CARES Act relief funds to member-owners. Any members who are behind on their electric bill are urged to call REC at 800-552-3904. The Cooperative plans to return to normal payment operations as of September. • As of January, REC was able to implement a net decrease in bills, which means typical members are saving more than $5 each month on their electric bills. • Capital investments last year included over 110 infrastructure projects focused on the distribution system, substations, transmission and other assets. It involved over 200 miles of line work. “Last year, in 2020, we invested a historic amount - $70 million - into the grid and into our systems to support operations, growth and reliability,” Hewa said. • Nearly 3,000 new residential

and commercial accounts were connected last year. • REC continued the expansion of its regional Fiber Utility Network, which will include 820 miles traversing through the counties that REC serves. • Throughout the year, REC safely delivered more than 3.7 billion kilowatt hours of electricity. • REC has taken on an increasing role in engaging and facilitating in the community, including helping to further broadband availability. “We’ve really ramped up our efforts, working in partnership with others to bridge the digital divide,” Hewa said. “We know and we recognize this is a very important topic to you and your families, and we want to make sure that we are leveraging the co-op’s assets to help further broadband across the region.” • The Cooperative expanded its programs and services, including a stronger focus on solar, energy efficiency and electric vehicles. REC has over 1,300 members who participate in a net metering program, allowing them to generate their own solar power. Another 800-plus members participate in Cooperative Sunshare, which allows them to purchase blocks of power without the need for a solar installation on their property. • A new energy-efficiency option for member-owners will soon be available. REC will be the first electric cooperative in Virginia to launch an on-bill energy-efficiency program, which will allow REC to partner with members who want to make energy

efficiency upgrades in their homes such as insulation, weatherization or installing a new HVAC system. It’s designed to reduce power bills through energy efficiency and then to use those savings to pay for the members’ investment over time. All of this would be done on the REC power bill. • REC also continues to focus on ways to support members who are considering purchasing or already own an electric vehicle. Pending approval from the State Corporation Commission, REC plans to offer a bill credit for members who charge their electric vehicles during offpeak hours. • “It’s very clear that we are headed toward a future of electric transportation,” Hewa said. • In early 2021, REC launched the first utility-scale battery storage project by an electric cooperative in Virginia. This allows REC to avoid certain power cost expenses and also increases reliability for member-owners. Hewa said: “As we move forward, your co-op remains laser-focused on innovative projects and programs that we believe will benefit member-owners for years and years to come.” REC provides electric service to over 170,000 connections in parts of 22 Virginia counties. With its general office in Fredericksburg, Va., the Cooperative operates and maintains more than 17,000 miles of power lines through its service area, which ranges from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the tidal waters of the Chesapeake Bay.
