Hillsboro To Award $14M Rt. 9 Contract BY PATRICK SZABO

dent of the Loudoun Wineries Association, said she has seen her own operation double in growth since she and her husband bought the winery in 2012. They had been looking at buying land in California or Oregon to start their winery, she said, but realized the land of opportunity was right in their own backyard when they moved to Loudoun 13 years ago. “There’s a transformation happening in Loudoun County and Virginia in regards to wine, and we wanted to be a part of it,” she said. Now the head of an organization advocating for Loudoun’s 45 wineries, Henkle described association members as “a small family that works well together and really thrives together, too.” While there is competition for sure, Henkle said winery owners see the growth of the local agritourism industry as a benefit to all. Jonathan Staples, one of the founders

After years of planning and months of reworking schematics, the Town of Hillsboro on Tuesday announced that it had selected the Archer Western Corp. to carry out its Rt. 9 traffic calming project. Archer, a part of the Walsh Group construction firm, was the lowest of three bidders on the project. The formal contract award is contingent on a Town Council vote of approval scheduled for this Wednesday night. Mayor Roger Vance said the town would officially award Archer the $14.33 million contract next week. “We’re really excited,” Vance said. “It’s a great feeling to be ready to go—we are now in the mode of execution.” The contract award will kick off a year-long construction project that will require local and regional traffic detours during 2020—detours that many residents still oppose. Under the traffic plan, local westbound Rt. 9 traffic will be directed to take Stony Point Road south to Woodgrove Road, south to Allder School Road, east to Hillsboro Road, north back to Rt. 9 to on the east side of town. West Virginia traffic will be directed to take Rt. 340 south to Rt. 7 east. But many residents who attended a community update meeting last Thursday expressed concern that much of the out-of-state traffic wouldn’t take Rt. 340, but instead would head toward town and use the local detour or Cider Mill Road—winding, rural roads they said aren’t equipped to handle additional traffic. In response to a resident’s question about who decided that Stony Point Road would be safer option than Cider Mill Road, VDOT’s Transportation and Land Use Director for Loudoun Farid Bigdeli said it was the town’s consultant that recommended the route to VDOT for review. “There was no other option except that one,” he said. The resident asked how Stony Point Road was considered a safe detour route, considering its single-lane intersection

The wineries and breweries that dot Loudoun’s countryside—including Doukénie Winery near Hillsboro—are prime contributors to the county’s $413 million agritourism industry.

Agritourism Abundance Industry Nets Loudoun More Than $400M BY KARA C. RODRIGUEZ It’s not just data centers that are bringing prosperity to Loudoun County. In fact, the county’s humble beginnings as a thriving rural economy, rich with farms, is paying dividends—even in 2019. A recent analysis commissioned by Visit Loudoun found that the growth of Loudoun’s agritourism industry generated an economic impact of more than $413 million last year. The economic impact study conducted by the Institute for Service Research reported that in 2018, Loudoun’s agritourism businesses hosted 1.2 million people who generated a total economic impact of $413.6 million. About 40 percent of those people traveled from outside the region, the report showed. The study defines agritourism as any activity on a farm that allows members of the public to enjoy rural activities, including farming, wineries and breweries,

cultural, and harvest-your-own events. The industry supports more than 4,000 full-time jobs in Loudoun. It’s a sector of Loudoun’s economy that has been on the rise. Long a winery mecca, the craft brewery industry in the county has seen its own emergence in the past few years. Now some wineries and breweries have even dipped their toes into both waters, offering visitors their choice of beer, wine and more. Those types of agritourism businesses seem to be the ones driving the train, according to the data. An additional survey by the Loudoun Wineries Association, the Loudoun County Department of Economic Development and Visit Loudoun found that surveyed wineries and farm breweries hosted almost 800,000 of those visitors during 2018 and collected an estimated $30.7 million in revenue.

Renss Greene/Loudoun Now

The Nighthawks rugby squad gather for a team picture after their first-ever win, at a tournament at Northern Virginia Community College campus in Loudoun Sunday, Nov. 17.

Nighthawks Rugby a NOVA College First BY RENSS GREENE Over the weekend, Northern Virginia Community College’s campus in Loudoun hosted the first-ever home game of its newest Nighthawks team: women’s rugby. The team began with a six-week leadership course centered on coed, non-contact rugby and taught by NOVA Student Life Program Director Mike McMillon. He came to the college with 14 years of experience as a player, coach, and administrator, and has been at NOVA for three years. “Since I’ve been around, what I’ve been hearing most from students is that what they’d like to see most programming-wise is in recreation and physical fitness opportunities,” McMillon said. But the famously tough sport of rugby

seemed to answer that complaint. “What’s great about the team and working with rugby is that anybody can play rugby,” McMillon said. “It’s really a sport that’s made for everyone. We need big people, strong people, small people, fast people.” After the course was over, some of the players wanted to put together a full-contact women’s team. And on Sunday, at a tournament at the college campus, the Nighthawks scored their first-ever try—akin to a touchdown in football—and notched their first win. They had only played two matches before that tournament, and while many of the players played sports in high school, most had never played rugby. Team co-captain Giselle Lovo said she came to the team after playing lacrosse and field hockey, but had been

off the field after an injury. She said she brought her field awareness and ability to move from those sports to rugby. The team’s other captain, Bridgette Solarte, came to the sport from wrestling in high school. She emailed McMillon to ask about a campus wrestling team and found out there was none— but he encouraged her to try rugby. She had some learning to do on throwing and catching the ball. “I remember he [McMillon] told me, that’s the least of your worries, with practice everything will come about,” Solarte said. But tackling was no problem for the former wrestler. “I was new the sport, so it was very different to me, but it was very welcom-

MOLD REMOVAL

GOT MOLD? Renss Greene/Loudoun Now

An Ashburn firefighter wears his turnout gear at the grand opening of Ashburn Volunteer Fire and Rescue’s Company 6 building Sunday, May 15, 2016. Some of the county’s smaller fire and rescue stations—unlike Ashburn—have had trouble meeting rigorous auditing standards.

Supervisors Push Fire-Rescue Volunteers on Internal Audits BY RENSS GREENE Members of the Board of Supervisors’ finance committee are pushing volunteer fire and rescue companies to get their books in order, with some suggesting the county take over their record keeping. Regular audits of the ways volunteer fire and rescue companies keep track of their finances have found that some have few formal controls, or do not consistently stick to them. In the cases of some small companies, there has been little or no improvement over repeated audits. Auditors looked at procedures for keeping track of things like handling cash receipts, paying company expenses with checks and cards, and managing bank accounts. Auditing firm Cherry Bekaert Partner Scott McKay noted the companies are held to a high standard; failing to meet the appropriate procedures even once drops them from the highest ranking, “formal,” to the next, “defined,” which indicates policies and procedures are laid out but not consistently followed. “Internal controls have inherent limitations,” McKay said. “They tend to deteriorate over time when change is introduced,” such as with staff turnover. He said some companies that had shown problem spots before had improved since the firm’s last audit, but others, like Hamilton Volunteer Rescue Squad, showed no improvement across audits. In every category, Hamilton stayed at the lowest rating, “informal,” indicating internal controls and policies are not consistently defined or followed. That prompted supervisors to push for better results. Some pointed out the audits began because of irregularities at volunteer companies. “That begs the question for this board, or at least the next board, what the heck do we do about this?” said Su-

pervisor Ralph M. Buona (R-Ashburn). “We can’t let this continue. We can’t wait for you to come back in another year.” And he said if he were serving another term, he would push to use the Board of Supervisors’ control of the budget to push those volunteers. Buona’s term on the board ends at the end of the year. “It’s not that hard. It really isn’t,” Buona said. “You put a policy in place that two people have to sign a check, and you check if two people signed the check. It’s not really that hard, but there’s county money involved, so we have to make sure that they’re complying.” Finance committee Chairman Matthew F. Letourneau (R-Dulles) agreed the repeated low marks are a concern. He said he would not support reimbursing those companies for EMS services unless things improve. “For those companies that are providing EMS, there’s a significant amount of money coming through here, and it’s money coming from insurance companies that belong to the citizens they’re transporting,” Letourneau said. “We need to honor that and be good stewards of that.” But they both said they could support a suggestion to provide bookkeeping services for those companies. “Many of these folks don’t have the capacity to even staff units or do what they need to do,” said Fire-Rescue Chief Keith Johnson. He said the county could help them along with third-party bookkeeping services. “A lot of this is about small companies that are all volunteer-run,” said County Administrator Tim Hemstreet. “…You may have two or three people that are kind of the heart of the company, that are handling everything. So they’re doing this while they’re working another job.” rgreene@loudounnow.com

Courthouse Construction, Downtown Disruption Begin in January

BY RENSS GREENE In just a few weeks, Leesburg can expect to see construction equipment coming in and old houses coming down as work begins on the new Loudoun County District Court building. According to county Construction Manager Nick Brown, work on the project is scheduled to begin Jan. 6 with construction equipment and trailers moving to what will be their home at the Semones parking lot for more than two years. Although the parking lot will get a renovation at the end of the project, it will be the staging area for construction work and remain closed for the length of the project, currently scheduled to last 30 months. After an estimated two weeks to get equipment in place and do preparatory work such as containing erosion, the project will begin in earnest in mid-January with demolition and excavation. That work is expected to last three months. “This is when we’re going to demolish the existing houses on Edwards Ferry Road,” Brown said at a public meeting Nov. 14. “That’s when we’re going to dig a pretty big hole to put the courthouse in.” From late winter through fall 2020, Church Street will also be closed to traffic while crews dig it up to install an underground tunnel between the current courthouse and the new building. The sidewalk will remain open, possi-

bly with a pedestrian bridge over the construction work. There will also be a new, temporary vehicle entrance to the Pennington Garage directly onto North Street, where today there is a walkway to the garage from the sidewalk. There will be a handicap-accessible shuttle circulating every 10 minutes between the Pennington Garage and the courthouse.

Work throughout the project is scheduled to be between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekends, although county officials warned that sometimes construction work may range outside those hours. There is no blasting expected, but the construction contractor, McDonough Bolyard Peck Inc., will sur-

vey properties within 450 feet of the project—generally properties within North Street, King Street, Loudoun Street, and the far side of Harrison Street—before construction begins by request. This, officials said, is to establish a comparison if property owners feel the construction activity has damaged their property and wish to complain. “At the conclusion of the project, if by chance we damaged anything on your property, any lawns got damaged or anything like that, we will come through and repair all of that,” Brown told area residents gathered for the meeting. The project is scheduled to wrap up in summer 2022. Attendees asked county staff members and contractors to be diligent about communicating with people living nearby, and about cleaning up litter. “I know this is going to be terrible for the next couple of years. It just is, and there’s not much we can do about it,” said one. “But you’re asking us to be good neighbors, you’re asking us to put up with it, and I’m asking you to be good neighbors.” “It is going to be noisy, it is going to be disruptive, there’s no way around it,” said Leesburg Director of Capital Projects Renee LaFollette. “It is a construction zone in the middle of the town, and there’s going to be a lot of COURTHOUSE >> 7

<< FROM 6

BY RENSS GREENE Loudoun finance officers are projecting the county government will have around $100 million left over from last year’s budget, and some of that may go to the project to improve Rt. 9 near Hillsboro. Members of the Board of Supervisor’s finance committee recommended sending $7.5 million to the project as soon as possible. County Administrator Tim Hemstreet said the town cannot award a contract until that funding is in place, and supervisors will vote on that expenditure on Nov. 21, before the next board decides in January how to allocate the rest of the fund balance from Fiscal Year 2019. When that time comes, supervisors will also consider hiring five more firefighters at the Loudoun Heights station—also because of the Rt. 9 work. With work on Rt. 9 impacting traffic on the main route in and out of northwestern Loudoun, according to Fire-Rescue Chief Keith Johnson, help from other stations may be slow to come when Loudoun Heights crews respond to a call. Johnson requested additional staffing for the Loudoun Heights

station, where currently the same crew members man the ambulance and the water tanker, meaning there aren’t enough to run both at once. And with no fire hydrants in far northwestern Loudoun, firefighters often have to bring their own water. Supervisors will consider whether to spend $350,000 of fund balance for half a year’s funding for five more firefighters at Loudoun Heights, allowing 24/7 staffing for the tanker truck and ambulance. The money would hit approximately halfway through the current fiscal year, which runs from July 1 to June 30. Several other county departments could also get a mid-year shot in the arm. The Office of Elections and Voter Registration has requested $640,000 for new electronic poll books, getting a jump on next year’s presidential elections when the agency’s current software and hardware will no longer be supported. Another $814,000 will go toward hiring a security consultant, buying safety equipment and hiring three more deputies to provide security at county government offices on Ridgetop Circle. $130,000 could go toward additional mowing along roads, after concerns over the previ-

ous year about high grass. Typically, the county reserves some money for the next budget to buffer against tax rate increases. About half of the available surplus funding would go into the county’s capital budget, $26.4 million just to replenish the county’s contingency reserve for capital projects. The county staff had also suggested reserving $218,000 in case supervisors decide the county should collect glass separately from other recyclables, after finding that glass increasingly is being viewed as a contaminate mixed with other recyclables, resulting in those collections ending up in a landfill. Committee members decided instead to put that money into contingency funding, and could come back out if needed after supervisors vote on the recycling program. Allocating year-end fund balance is an annual job for county supervisors. Last year, the Fiscal Year 2018 budget finished with $99.6 million left over. Then, too, the Rt. 9 project got funding—that time, $2.5 million. rgreene@loudounnow.com

construction in the middle of town for the next three or four years. I know nobody wants to hear that, but unfortunately that’s the cost of development, and that’s the cost of building a town.” Some residents were also worried about how much light the courthouse will shine into their homes once complete. And while the meeting Thursday was about the courthouse project, many said they are still have trouble with light from the new Pennington Garage. County Department of Transportation and Capital Infrastructure Deputy Director Bruce Johnston said the county is looking at ways to screen some of that light, but is limited because of the garage’s open-air design. “If we put too much screening in, that not only blocks the light but also blocks airflow,” Johnston said. “Then the requirement would be that we would have to add that mechanical ventilation and fire protection in there. That we want to avoid, because that would be very, very costly.” More information about the courthouse project, including a copy of the presentation from Nov. 14, is online at loudoun.gov/courts-expansion.

Drainage Work Begins Patrick Szabo/Loudoun Now

About three dozen residents stopped by the Ida Lee Park Recreation Center last week to share their views on Leesburg’s future.

Town Plan Update Enters Re-write Phase BY KARA C. RODRIGUEZ After several long days holed up in a temporary “design studio” in an Ida Lee Park Recreation Center conference room, consultants and town staff members emerged with a fresh look at Leesburg’s comprehensive plan. Matt Noonkester, of City Explained, which, along with Stantec, is one of two consultant teams working with the town staff to update the Town Plan, last week delivered to the Town Council a wrap-up briefing following six days of work in a design charrette that kicked off last week. About 13 team members worked 12-hour-plus days during the design charrette, equating to 1,000 hours of work in a short period of time. Public input has been an important tenet of the comprehensive plan update, and the past six days were no different, he said. Thirty-six members of the public stopped in during the char-

rette, but team members also took to the streets for pop-up interviews over the weekend, which brought in another 75 opinions. Facebook Live has also been an important tool since the Legacy Leesburg Town Plan update project kicked off in earnest over the summer, with more than 2,600 views. There have also been more than 2,000 visits to the Legacy Leesburg website and 28 respondents to a still active online survey soliciting feedback about the project. “Everybody who came and provided comment has become a mutual author of the plan,” Noonkester said. Noonkester emphasized that the consultants and staff members working on revisions to the plan are merely “stewards of the process” and that the final product truly belongs to Leesburg residents. Major takeaways from the charrette included a need to focus on Leesburg’s character; the trajectory of Leesburg’s

development and growth; an emphasis on a diversified economy, less of a bedroom community and more of an employment center; increasing the home choice portfolio; more transportation options; and an acknowledgement that the market is ripe. Over the winter months, those working on the plan will be in a document-writing stage, Noonkester said. He expects that in early 2020 Town Plan policy concepts, maps and ideas will be submitted to the staff for a quick checkin with both the Planning Commission and Town Council on the progress. The next formal community workshop is anticipated for April, and hopes are to have a draft plan by the summer. More information about the Town Plan update can be found at legacy. leesburgva.gov.

Motorists may have noticed traffic disruptions in the area of South and King streets. William A.

New Art Exhibit at Balch

A rendering of the planned Old Mill Veterinary Hospital on Lawson Road.

Leesburg Council Approves Old Mill Expansion BY KARA C. RODRIGUEZ Members of the Leesburg Town Council have enthusiastically endorsed an application that will bring more amenities for four-legged friends to town. During last week’s council meeting, Old Mill Veterinary Hospital won special exception approval to construct a two-story, 21,000-square-foot facility to complement its existing building along Lawson Road.

Plans call for the construction of a new building, across from Old Mill’s current operation, that will include a canine day care facility, a veterinary hospital, and a restaurant. A report submitted by the applicant notes that the eatery—with a window to the doggy day care play area—is intended to be used by Old Mill’s human patrons, but also would be open to anyone “who likes good food and cute dogs.” A maximum of 150 dogs will be permitted in

the day care center, which would not accommodate overnight boardings. While Old Mill owns the property where the new facility would be housed, it has for several years been used as a parking lot for vehicle fleet storage for the U.S. Postal Service. Council members voted 6-0-1 to approve the special exception, with Councilman Tom Dunn abstaining. krodriguez@loudounnow.com

A Friends of Leesburg Public Arts art exhibit is now on display at the Thomas Balch Library through Dec. 28. The exhibit features more than 25 pieces of artwork including oil and acrylic paint on canvas, watercolor, digital freehand, mixed media and color photography.

The Leesburg Town Council is considering whether there’s a better way to budget for Old Man Winter. Just hours after the first snow flurries of the season fell in town Nov. 12, council members scrutinized the budget set aside for snow removal services in town. Before the council was a contract award for snow removal in the amount of $155,000 for approval. Renee LaFollette, director of the Public Works & Capital Projects Department, noted that that amount would only cover a 12-hour snow event in town. In the past few years, the department has budgeted for at least one 24-hour snow event; however, the prices received in the bids for service were not sufficient to cover the longer snow event, she said. Town Manager Kaj Dentler said a decade ago, town staff would budget for eight to 10 snow events each year. However, at the height of the recession, and in an effort to not increase the real estate tax rate, the General Fund budget was tightened significantly and only a handful of snow events were budgeted for per year. Following the end of the snow season, public works staff typically returns to the council for

a supplemental budget appropriation, if needed. This past winter, that appropriation was for more than $600,000. LaFollette reported that this past winter had 13 snow events, of which seven were more than 24 hours. Several council members said they preferred to budget for more snow events, but Dentler reminded the council that those additional funds, in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, would need to be found in existing town revenues. Relying on the Undesignated Fund Balance, he said, is not a sustainable model. “You’re talking almost a penny on the tax rate” if an additional $600,000 is budgeted for snow removal, he said. “The issue for me is, if we generally know we’re going to spend $600,000 we should budget $600,000 and if we don’t use it that can be a surplus we can use for other things at the end of the year,” Councilman Tom Dunn said. While the contract award at $155,000 passed, with only Mayor Kelly Burk dissenting, the council added an amendment directing the staff to research budgeting additional funds for snow removal.

She said the experience solidified her desire to pursue a medical degree, possibly at Emory University, and start a career as an OB/GYN. According to Stacey Metcalfe, the hospital’s director of government and community relations in the western region, the Job for a Day program has done more than provide students with a chance to envision themselves in their desired career roles—it’s inspired them to pursue those careers right here in Loudoun. Metcalfe said that happened when a Loudoun Valley High School student returned to the Lansdowne hospital working as a clinical staff nurse for Family Centered Care after participating in the program’s inaugural run in 2003. pszabo@loudounnow.com

The Loudoun County Sheriff ’s Office is investigating a fatal crash that occurred early Saturday morning in Ashburn. According to the report, a 2007 Toyota Scion was traveling eastbound on Ashburn Farm Parkway just before 2 a.m. when it left the roadway between Starflower Way and Summerwood Circle. The vehicle became airborne and crossed the westbound lanes, struck a utility pole, and drove through a residential fence before coming to a stop. An adult female and an adult male were both thrown from the vehicle during the crash. Heather L. Wren, 31, of Ft. Meade, MD, was pronounced dead at the scene. The man was taken to Reston Hospital Center where he is being treated for injuries described as serious but not life-threatening. The cause of the crash remains under investigation by the Sheriff ’s Office Crash Reconstruction Unit. Any witnesses to the crash are asked to contact Investigator S. Allen at 703-737-8308.

3-Time 7-Eleven Robber Sent to Prison A Maryland man will spend more than 18 years in state prison following his conviction in a series of armed robberies targeting 7-Eleven convenience

Leaders of the Loudoun County Salvation Army got help from former Washington Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss and Leesburg Mayor Kelly Burk to kick off the 2019 Red Kettle fundraising campaign. Starting last weekend, volunteers will be stationed at 16 locations around Loudoun to collect donations from shoppers. Red Kettle donations raise 33 percent of the Salvation Army’s annual budget. Last year, $112,000 was raised through the program, Loudoun County Salvation Army Corps Officer Capt. Pradeep Ramaji said. This year, the organization hopes to boost donations to $130,000. That will take a lot of bell ringing from volunteers. Burk said she hopes to get members of the Town Council involved and there are plenty of volunteer timeslots available for residents. The Loudoun County Salvation Army serves county residents all year long. Ramaji said 83 cents of every dollar donated goes directly to provide services to the most needy of Loudoun, including help for families in crisis and enabling them to be self-sufficient by providing them with emergency assistance for rent, utilities and food, youth programs, church services, disaster services, the Canteen Food Truck, the annual Thanksgiving dinner for all, and Angel Tree Toys for

The Leesburg Garden Club is accepting applications for its Community Outreach Grant Program. The club is awarding up to $15,000 in grants in 2020 to support projects that further the century-old organization’s mission to encourage preservation, conservation, beautification, and restoration. The funds may be awarded to one or multiple organizations, depending on the applications received and the evaluation of the grant committee. A qualifying organization can submit an application to request seed funding to start a new, or expand or replicate a successful, project. Projects should demonstrate a community need, be economically feasible, ensure that all involved will benefit from the results, and foster self-sufficiency. Eligibility is limited to Loudoun-

children at Christmas. Last year, 1,500 children were served by the Angel Tree program. The Salvation Army also partners with the Toys for Tots campaign and other holiday programs. Ramaji said he is open to partnering with other civic organizations to help the community. Moss said that as a Loudoun County resident, he wants to help out and get his 89 Ways to Give charitable foundation involved. “I have a strong passion of giving. It wasn’t something I had to learn about myself. I knew that from day one. My heart has always been that way,” Moss said. “Through my years of playing ball, this county has been tremendous to me, so I wanted to give back. And then I met some people from the Salvation Army,” he said. “I’m honored to have a friendship and a partnership with the Salvation Army.” The kick-off event also included the singing of carols by the Rock Ridge High School Choir.

Lovettsville, Middleburg Advance Town Office Projects BY PATRICK SZABO Lovettsville will have to wait just another three weeks to find out who might design and build its new town office and Middleburg isn’t far behind. The Lovettsville town staff on Nov. 13 advertised a request for proposals soliciting responses from firms interested in designing and building the town a new, 2,125-square-foot office expansion that will connect with the existing 950-square-foot, 44-year-old office. Firms have until 2 p.m. on Dec. 12 to respond. Meanwhile, the Davenport & Company financial firm last Thursday presented the Middleburg Town Council with funding options the town could consider when looking to pay for its own new town office space to replace the existing 55-year-old, 2,096-squarefoot office—a project Town Administrator Danny Davis said was still in the

In Middleburg, Davis said the town is hoping to keep costs at or below $6 million. In Lovettsville, Town Manager Rob Ritter’s proposed Fiscal Year 2021-2025 Capital Improvement Plan lists the required funding as $860,000. Ritter said that amount isn’t

set in stone because the town is first waiting to see how much the responding firms will charge to complete the work.

Office projects << FROM 16 the scope of the project and their ability to provide innovative, practical and cost-effective solutions and quality professional planning and engineering analysis in an efficient, cost-effective and timely manner. They’ll also need to detail their experience working on three similar projects within the past five years and working with up to five clients of similar size or type in the last decade, as well as their experience preparing conceptual design plans and engaging with key stakeholders in the planning and design process. Lastly, they’ll need to identify the employees who will work on the project. The town staff will evaluate each response based on a 100-point system, with 30 points going toward each firm’s project approach, 25 points toward their design team’s qualifications, 20 points toward their ability to meet deadlines, 15 points toward their ability to keep project costs down and five points toward their overall proposed project cost. Considered firms will be asked to visit town for an interview to clarify or elaborate on their proposals. In Middleburg, Davis said the town staff is continuing discussions with property owners and hopes to advertise a request for proposals by late winter or early spring. Last week, Davenport outlined a few scenarios the town could face when

looking at funding options for a $6 million office, all of which assume that the town would take out a 20-year loan with an annual interest rate of 4 percent. One scenario would see the town use $400,000 of its year-end surplus to reduce borrowing for the project, while another would see it use none of that annual surplus. Davenport presented scenarios in which the town could help pay for the project using revenue generated by the meals tax or the lodging tax, options that could require hikes in those tax rates in the next 5-10 years. However, David Rose, Davenport’s senior vice president, said that raising the town’s meals or lodging taxes isn’t an option the town needs to consider just yet, and might not be one it ever needs to look at. He said, for now, the town should simply monitor the project as it moves forward. “That’s my gut, but we’ll have to wait until the end of the decade to figure it out,” he said. Mayor Bridge Littleton praised the town office project as being one that most likely won’t require the town to raise taxes in the next 20 years. “It makes me feel really comfortable that the plan we want to go with, we can do it,” he said. Davenport is expected to further discuss funding options in summer 2020, once the town better understands how much the project will cost. pszabo@loudounnow.com

other sensitive information. But some victims want more than an alert about the risk of identity theft, they want a criminal investigation. One of those is Andrew Sanderson, who asked the council to order law enforcement to initiate a criminal investigation into the removal of the flash drive. Sanderson said a Virginia identity theft law had been broken, since the flash drive landed in the hands of third parties “without the authorization or permission of the person or persons who are the subjects of the identifying information.” “Since my identity is out there … that’s a violation of law,” he said. Vice Mayor Tip Stinnette said the council is working to figure out if a criminal investigation is warranted. Mekarski said the town has tried to gain the attention of the FBI, the Virginia State Police and the Attorney General’s Office, but to no avail. Hankins said the town had already met with outside agencies on three occasions and that “they have not found anything sufficient for us to pursue.” The breach dates back to events more than two years ago. In October 2017, then interim Town Manager Alex Vanegas initiated an investigation into now-discredited allegations of misconduct by Police Chief Cynthia McAlister. In doing so, he directed IT Director Shannon Bohince to provide him with a flash drive containing McAlister’s entire email box, which Vanegas then allegedly handed to Georgia Nuckolls, the HR consultant he hired to help with the investigation. Bohince told Vanegas to not remove the flash drive from the town hall. Three weeks after the investigation concluded, which resulted in McAlister’s firing, the town placed Vanegas on leave upon finding that he mismanaged the investigation and was in-

volved in an inappropriate relationship with Nuckolls. Vanegas was later fired and McAlister was reinstated. In April 2018, Brian Reynolds, the publisher of the Loudoun Tribune— the newspaper where Nuckolls formerly worked as an HR Director/Business Manager—claimed to be in possession of McAlister’s email box. At that point, the town staff realized that it had lost track of the 9.1-gigabyte flash drive, which contained thousands of pieces of personal information, and filed an insurance claim with Virginia Risk Sharing Association. The insurance company then hired McDonald Hopkins and the Beazley cyber services firm to conduct a forensics investigation into the breach using a copied flash drive that Bohince made when creating Vanegas’ copy. While the investigation initially turned up 6,000 pieces of information, Beazley’s employees manually sorted through each hit and identified 1,800 pieces of information to be at risk. Within those were 1,740 individual pieces of personal information embedded on a single document—a standardized form created by a single outside entity that a Purcellville town employee attached to an email to McAlister. According to a town statement, the information was contained in a hidden field in the document that neither the town employee nor McAlister were aware of. On Oct. 17, the law firm worked with the town staff and sent letters to the 1,800 individuals across the nation notifying them that their personal information had been compromised to some degree. The firm sent those letters on town stationary, but included its own Harrisburg, PA address and phone number and led many recipients to believe the letters were inauthentic. The town staff, however, did not inform the Town Council that the letters were being sent out, which led Stinnette to call a Nov. 9 emergency meeting to sort matters out. Mekarski took the blame for neglecting to inform the council about the letters. “It is clearly on my shoulders for not providing advanced notice of the letter going out to the community to the council,” he said. Moving forward, Stinnette said the town would put out an updated press release on the breach, obtain McDonald Hopkins’ investigation analysis and create an FAQ page on the town website to answer the various questions that have been asked. Hankins said it would be important for the town to let McDonald Hopkins do the talking, though. Councilman Nedim Ogelman agreed, but noted that the town had an obligation to share any public information that the firm furnishes. “If our consultants, if those experts, have something to say, I think we owe it to our community to provide that,” he said. “The town … and its body of support … has been doing everything it can in due diligence and in abundance of caution and will continue to do so.” pszabo@loudounnow.com

[ TOWN NOTES ] At the ribbon cutting for that location, Purcellville Mayor Kwasi Fraser suggested to Hill that Makersmiths open a second location in western Loudoun’s largest town. In April 2017, the organization signed a nearly five-year lease on the 3,900-square-foot Purcellville location off South 20th Street. Volunteers worked for two years to upgrade the building’s electricity, restore its heat and install a partial air-conditioning unit. It officially opened in April 2018. It opened a woodshop in June 2018 and a blacksmithing shop in January this year. Hill said Makersmiths plans to keep growing membership and programming, based on members’ skills and desires. An open house at the Purcellville location is scheduled for 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 26 for a mini-tour and information. Learn more at makersmiths.org.

Residents Asked to Give Gifts to Toys for Tots Campaign The Town of Purcellville is collecting toy donations until Dec. 9 to help supply the Toys for Tots campaign to provide gifts to children in need this season. The town has set up donation boxes at three locations across town—at the Town Hall, open Monday-Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.; at the Police Department headquarters off Hirst Road, open Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 5

p.m.; and at the Bush Tabernacle in the Fireman’s Field complex, open Saturday-Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. The U.S. Marine Corps Reserve formed Toys for Tots 70 years ago as a national charitable program to offer happiness and hope for disadvantaged children each Christmas season. The Marines in 2018 helped 7 million children in 792 communities nationwide. Since 1947, it’s assisted more than 244 million children. For more information, go to toysfortots.org.

The Merriment of It All

Tis the Season for Fun and Festive Local Markets BY JAN MERCKER If there was ever a holiday season to shop local and meaningful, this is it. And Loudoun businesses and nonprofits are offering more opportunities than ever to do that, with a raft of upcoming Christmas markets from the traditional to the alternative. Over the next few weeks, Loudouners can get out and get festive while finding unique gifts from local artisans or donating to charities while sipping spiced wine, beer or cocktails and listening to live music.

One of Loudoun’s most beloved holiday markets, Lovettsville Christkindlmarkt, celebrates its 12th anniversary this year. David and Veronika Bennett launched the market in 2008 as a tribute to their town’s German heritage and a complement to Lovettsville’s famed Oktoberfest, inspired by the traditional Christmas markets of Germany and other Alpine countries. And while bringing in unique vendors is a big part of the appeal, David Bennett said it’s also a chance to eat and drink with neighbors.

“It is always a community event in Europe,” Bennett said. “It’s not all about shopping, although that’s part of it and we have some amazing vendors some of whom have been with us since the beginning.” This year’s Christkindlmarkt is held Saturday, Dec. 7 and Sunday, Dec. 8 at the Lovettsville Game Club. It’s a festive weekend of traditional German food, music, beer, spiced gluhwein and lots of MARKETS >> 25

The Village at Leesburg gets a jump on the Christmas season with a tree-lighting celebration on Saturday afternoon. At the same time, area musicians will be working to build support for community nonprofits during an alternative giving fair at nearby ChefScape. Fresh off its successful Crossroads Music Festival in downtown Leesburg in September, BENEFIT is hosting the Hope for the Holidays event from 3 to 7 p.m. Nov. 23. Attendees will enjoy live music, food samples and hot cider, as well as specials at participating ChefScape vendors. Eleven nonprofits that serve

Loudoun County children in need will have representatives on site. Attendees may make donations to the organizations in honor of family members, friends or loved ones to give a gift of hope for the holidays. Each gift recipient receives a special Hope card to give them a heads up about the donation. And because it’s a BENEFIT production, the event will also be festive and fun, featuring live music with headliners Ella Levri and Nothing Defined. BENEFIT, established in 2017, is a coalition of musicians and community leaders with a mission to use the power of music to raise funds and awareness for nonprofit organizations

that serve children in need. It is a component program of the Paxton Trust, a 501(c)3 charitable organization. “Rather than buying another $25 necktie for a person with everything, you can donate $25 to The Arc of Loudoun which provides a week of life-enriching activities for our 40 preschool children at Open Door Learning Center,” Co-founder Ara Bagdasarian said. “This is a meaningful way to give hope to those in our community in need through the charities that provide support. This event truly captures the essence of the holiday season.”

traditional treats from the Falls Churchbased German Gourmet. The musical lineup is always a big draw, and Austrian-born accordionist Silvia Eberly, who lives in Arlington, is a crowd favorite. Hammered dulcimer player Jody Marshall from McLean will also perform, along with husband and wife duo Karen Ashbrook Paul Oorts on dulcimer and viola da gamba. Highlights of the event include visits and photo ops with a traditional Saint Nicholas (think Third Century bishop, not Santa Claus), the German Christkind angel and, of course, Krampus, the horned goat-like figure who deals with the naughty kids in German tradition and serves as a constant foil and companion for Saint Nicholas. “We try to minimize the scariness, but it’s really tradition,” Bennett said. “In the south of Germany and the Alpine countries, you can’t have one without the other.” All over Loudoun, wineries and breweries are also getting into the Christmas market act. At the Wine Reserve at Waterford, owners Cori and Jon Phillips were also inspired by European Christmas markets they fell in love with while studying in Europe. The couple launches their first Makers and Purveyors Market at the winery Saturday, Dec. 7. “We really wanted to make it festive,” Cori Phillips said. “We want to create that wonderful experience—it’s like our local adaptation of a European market” Phillips carefully curated a gathering of cool vendors using her own connections on the Etsy platform along with local contacts. The market will feature vintage and handmade housewares from Roost Design Co., unique baby items (including seasonal bibs) from Kookabella Baby, jewelry from Noonday Collection and other local and regional favorite artisans. But for Phillips, it’s also about bringing neighbors and visitors together. “It’s more than the shopping although the shopping is great,” Phillips said. “What’s always stuck with us from the [European] experience is the feeling of having holiday music, a cozy fire, the lights, the merriment of it all.” The Wine Reserve will offer spiced wine, beer from their neighbors at Wheatland Spring Farm + Brewery, food for sale from Borinquen Lunch Box and live Christmas music from Anthony Semiao. Local breweries are also hosting events in the lead up to Christmas: Old 690, Old Ox and Vanish all have holiday markets planned. And Round Hill’s B Chord Brewing is partnering with the nearby Snickers Gap Tree Farm for a perfect post-Thanksgiving outing. B Chord hosts its Christmas market Saturday, Nov. 30, and if you buy a tree from Snickers Gap, you’ll get a 10 percent discount in the tasting room. Visitors can shop for gifts and enjoy fire pits, marshmallow roasting, hot cider and a new food menu.

Daniel Sanders Morrow

1944-2019 Since his death on October 26 at Winchester Medical Center, tributes have poured into the Middleburg community from friends and colleagues of the late Dan Morrow, publisher of the Middleburg Eccentric. He was born in Monroe NC. He attended the University of Virginia, graduating with a master’s degree in Modern European History. He was preceded in death by his parents Mary Elizabeth Morrow and Daniel Carter Monroe, his wife Glenda Sharon Morrow and his step-son Alex Cudaback. He is survived by his sister Mary Carter Burnette, his daughter-inlaw Maggie Cudaback and his grandson Finn. As his sister said this week, “he was a good guy, he was one of a kind.” Six years younger than Dan, she said he was always supportive, callimg him “my rock” when her husband died. Gregarious in nature, with wideranging interests—from conservation, fishing, kayaking and hiking to history, philosophy and religion—there seemed no end Morrow’s to involvement with the world—and people—around him. A fluent writer, his prose was never dull— leading some to smart from his pointed remarks.

Virginia Del. Joe T. May (R) treasured his discussions with Morrow, whom he called a “true southern gentleman.” Politically, the two men held different views, but, “I loved talking to him,” May recalled. He first knew Dan and Glenda through the Loudoun Laurels, a charitable organization that yearly honors individuals who have contributed notably to Loudoun County and raises funds for student scholarships. “It was very personal to them,” May said, recalling their “tremendous talents in organizing this very successful endeavor.” Longtime friend, preservationist and Civil War historian, Childs Burden shared many interests with Morrow. Currently chairman emeritus of the Mosby Heritage Area Association, on whose board Morrow served, the two men indulged their common passion for history. “Dan always understood the value of community interest,” Burden said, noting they shared similar values on conservation and history. Most of all, he remembered “that smile that lit up his face.” Fellow journalist, Loudoun Now Publisher and Editor Norman K. Styer, recalled he was fortunate to have been at the table “when Dan, Glenda and Dee Dee were first discussing the launch of the Middleburg Eccentric.” Many years later, the Morrows were around the table when the decision was made to launch Loudoun Now, and were among the day-one investors in that effort. Through those decades, “Dan’s passion for journalism—and dedication to the pursuit of justice—was always a source of inspiration. He understood the role the press plays as community stewards and government watchdogs and held us all to his high standards.”

Sterling R. Evans

Age 82 of Purcellville, VA

A newspaperman of long standing, including at the Washington Post, Whitney Communications Newspaper Division, MD, the Village Companies in Chapel Hill, NC, he was also the founding Executive Director and Chief Historian for the Computerworld Smithsonian Awards and Computerworld Honors programs. Morrow closed a distinguished career when he became publisher of the Middleburg Eccentric, a lively new publication started by Dee Dee Hubbard and her son Jay Hubbard, named for the community it embodies. In the 16 years the trio was in partnership, Eccentric Editor Chief Dee Dee Hubbard said “Dan had an amazing way of cutting through the chaff by asking a pointed question to get to the truth of a matter. Always a gentleman, a scholar and ready for a good debate.” When they started the paper, they looked for someone to strengthen their editorial endeavors. After talking with Morrow, they found “he was a perfect fit with the direction we wanted to take the paper.” Each month, Morrow wrote the Middleburg Town Council Report, providing input and insight to the editorial section of the paper. “He will be greatly missed and always remembered for all he did,” she said. In the latter position, Morrow cut a larger-than-life figure in the community, often penning editorial commentary on political and civic topics with one eye on history and the other on the plight of the common citizen. Morrow often ruffled official feathers, cheerfully butting heads with those in pubic office. Like a terrier, there was no “bone” in the garden he was not interested in digging up, but his prose was never malicious. Former Middleburg Mayor Betsy Davis remembered Morrow’s care for the town and the community. She once teased him he should be an investigative reporter. “He could be quite blunt and ferocious— but his bark was always worse than his bite.” Current Middleburg Mayor, Trowbridge “Bridge” Littleton, said that while Morrow “reveled” in being somewhat of a gadfly, he also was a “true champion for the little guy.” He recalled Morrow’s great human touch, calling him his “mentor,” recalling the hours the two men spent in conversation—on subjects ranging from world history to philosophy to biology. “He challenged me to think on deeper levels and to see different perspectives.” Long associated with Middleburg area affordable housing projects through the Windy Hill Foundation, Kim Hart knew Morrow from years back when he served on the that organization’s board. “Like all great newspaper people, Dan was a sceptic at heart—from religion to the profane, but always with a joyful heart.” Like Littleton, Hart remembered Morrow as “a wonderful person to talk to.” Equally, businessman and former

Passing Along the Windfall County supervisors have begun their annual exercise of doling out unspent revenue from the recently closed fiscal year. It’s routine to see the board allocate a few million dollars here or a couple of hundred thousand dollars there for projects that weren’t on the radar during the previous round of budget talks or that simply didn’t make the cut. This is not a routine year. This year, the slush fund tops out at a remarkable $100 million. That is a surplus big enough to send every family and business a tax refund check of more than $500—a significant portion of their real estate tax payment. During Fiscal Year 2019, total real estate tax collections were budgeted for $856 million, even after supervisors cut the real estate tax rate by 4 cents with the goal of cutting the tax bill of the average homeowner by $47. It turns out that tax rate was still a dime too high. This year, FY 2020, supervisors followed the same pattern, a four-cent rate cut with the goal of cutting tax bills by another $20. The county’s fiscal planners correctly recognized that the soaring property values driven by the data center land rush are not sustainable and generally have maintained a conservative approach to budgeting. However, the longer county leaders go without passing that windfall back to the taxpayers, the greater the risk that the government will become dependent on revenues that can vanish in a bubble burst. Supervisors seem poised to pass most of the $100 million question on to the next board, providing that new group with their first challenge of prudent fiscal planning. And when budget talks gear up again next spring, homeowners should expect more than a token reduction in their bills.

[ LETTERS ] Flippant? No. Editor: Mr. Henshaw [Letters, Nov. 14] should be careful about his requests. He, “would suggest that a first step to restoring trust with parents could be for the School Board to direct that all school library networks be configured to notify a parent by email or SMS message any time a student checks out any book containing graphic content.” Let’s start with the word “graphic,” shall we. This word is far too nebulous to assist the wonderful librarians we have throughout the Loudoun County Public School libraries. They are, undoubtedly, underpaid and their resources would be insufficient for such a request. First, they would be left with the task of deciding what Mr. Henshaw or anyone opposing the books in question means by “graphic.” That is where Mr. Henshaw’s suggestion puts himself in a corner. How does he suppose they decide? What resources do they use to set up such a configuration? When does he suppose they do this? The when is not as important as the how. And then, back to my point of parents being in charge of their kids. Parents who share their values with their children, the values I heard so many speakers mention at the latest school board meeting, should have no worries in what their children choose to read because they would have set the tone.

Now, I am not naïve enough to believe that all children would respect their parents’ wishes. That would be ludicrous. Freedom of choice is the issue here. Parents who wish to deny students access to books because they deem them too “graphic” place their values on all of the students who attend our schools. Why should they be denied the freedom to access any book they choose to read? These books are not a mandatory part of the curriculum but rather cover topics that some students may be interested in such as things having to do with gender identity, relationships, culture, and the age-old topic of teen angst.

Especially when you have like one-on-one time with any of them, you get to know them really well, and it’s important to involve everyone in anything that you do.” McMillon said the first try was scored by Analicia Roberts. “When I saw her just zoom right through, it was so amazing,” Lovo said. “And we tried to get right behind her, but she was way too fast for us to catch her.” Solarte and Grace Carter also touched the ball behind the goal line to score tries. At that game, players also put on jerseys for the other team, the Georgetown Hoyas, who could not bring enough players to field a full 15-player team on Sunday. “As exciting as it is that the rugby community is growing rapidly, it’s also still a tight-knit community,” McMillon said. “It’s very common at social tournaments where there’s a team that wants to be able to [compete] but for some reason their numbers are a little bit short.”

Meanwhile, the women on the 28-member Nighthawks squad were eager to get on the pitch—in any colors. “We had students on our team clamoring to play with the other teams, because they wanted the experience,” McMillon said. “That’s one of the things we’ve kind of harped on. You’re all so new, there’s nothing we can do about the fact that you don’t have experience, and every opportunity that we’ve had we’ve tried to give them, including this weekend.” “I think right now it’s just more of a learning opportunity for the girls, and if they want to continue for next semester, I strongly encourage them to,” Lovo said. “Because I know for a fact that I will most likely—definitely—continue on for next semester and however long.” Solarte said the players—many of whom also have jobs outside of attending college—have made the time to play and support the team. “It’s just so nice to see how dedicated the girls are, not only to me but to the team as a whole,” Solarte said. “The responsibility they’ve had with it and respecting the team and just communicating, because it’s always hard.

[ LETTERS ] << FROM 44 end preventable deaths of mothers, newborns, and young children in developing countries all around the world. In the past 25 years, child and mother mortality rates have been cut in half. While that is good, still, every day approximately 800 women die from preventable causes directly related to pregnancy and childbirth. Indeed, in Africa, the risk of a woman dying during childbirth is 50 percent times higher than women in the United States. Of those children born to mothers who died during childbirth, more than 20,000 under the age of five will also die due the lack of treatment for preventable diseases. For centuries, the United States has been a global proponent in the efforts to produce and administer treatment, especially for women and children. Global poverty is a domino effect; its results, if underestimated, create an unstable world and a breeding ground for very real international security threats. For this reason, and those mentioned above, I urge Congress and those of Loudoun County to support the Reach Every Mother and Child Act in order to promote wellness for women and children around the world, as well as protect United States national security interests. — Mahzarin Mistry, Leesburg

Being Kind Now Leads to a Healthy Adult Later are connected to how the parents treat each other and how they take care of themselves. Untreated depression or anxiety, substance abuse and addiction, and witness to violence in the home all lead to an increased ACE score.

BY NEIL MCNERNEY A number of years ago, the insurance company Kaiser Permanente set out to determine if there was any connection between negative childhood experiences and health issues later in life. For instance, is there a connection between heart disease and a difficult childhood? To date, more than 144,000 adults have taken the survey. They developed a questionnaire that focused on three major areas of an adverse childhood: abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction. Ten questions were asked, and each “yes” answer was scored as one point. Here is an example: “Did you often or very often feel that no one in your family loved you or thought you were important or special?” Answering yes to this question would add one point to the ACEs score. The more adverse childhood experiences a person has, the higher their ACEs score. The lowest score is zero and the highest is 10. Their findings were stunning. Many of the common adult health problems were directly connected to adverse childhood experiences. The study found a connection between adverse childhood experiences and obesity, depression, addiction, and smoking. Surprisingly, there was also a direct connection for health issues that we never thought were caused by a difficult childhood, such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, and asthma. More troubling was the fact that the higher the ACEs score, the larger the health difficulties. At least 60 percent of those studied have an ACEs score of 1. The higher the score, the higher the risk for an unhealthy adult life.

Let your kids know how important they are

Fortunately, this is a public health issue that can be prevented by doing our best to provide a caring, calm household for our kids. By looking at the ten areas of that make up the ACEs quiz, I have developed a list of to-dos that will have a direct impact on our children:

Get rid of the “I turned out OK” argument We often give ourselves a break by thinking, for example: “I was yelled at and I turned out OK. In fact, I think it made me stronger.” But did it really make you stronger? There is no real way of knowing. For the vast majority of children, verbal yelling is traumatic and does not produce a stronger person. You might have been in the minority, but who is to say, if you weren’t yell at as a child, that you might have turned out more than OK?

Create a kind environment Abuse takes many forms, including physical, emotional, and sexual. The evidence continues to point to the fact that, from a child’s point of view, there is very little, if any, difference between corporal punishment and physical abuse. If there is the possibility that our children will be adversely affected by spanking, why take the chance when there are so many other effective ways to punish? Emotional abuse is more difficult to define, but it can be just as harmful. Name calling, degrading and angry outbursts can be harmful and traumatic for a developing child. When our mood becomes unpredictable, it makes it very hard for a child to relax and enjoy their world.

Take care of yourself as a parent Many of the adverse experiences

Emotional and physical neglect are two of the areas that show a direct connection to adult health. It’s important that our kids are told how much we love them and how important they are in our lives, so that as they grow, they know that the family can be a place of support and strength. It’s important that they know that their parents are always someone they can turn to when facing trouble. Of course, we love our children, but it’s just as important that we communicate it. If you are interested in learning more about this study, I would suggest you start by taking the test yourself to determine your own ACEs score. The website, acestoohigh.com, has excellent resources and a simple questionnaire. I believe that the more we know about how our actions affect our children’s future, the better parents we will become.

Got pain? Break Up with Sugar BY CHRIS CROLL I’m having my left hip replaced this week because of a degenerative bone condition with which I was diagnosed 17 years ago. I was in enough pain last June to have my hip replaced then, but my stubborn “I’ll tough it out” attitude, a demanding home life and two pre-paid summer vacations resulted in me scheduling the surgery for mid-November when it would be less disruptive. At the time, five months didn’t seem like a long time to wait. By August, however, the pain in my joint and legs was so severe that I had exhausted my prescriptions for oral steroids and my liver enzymes were dangerously elevated from a roundthe-clock Tylenol habit. I met with a pain management doctor in the hopes of finding relief. He smiled and then proceeded to rule out every option on his list, including the last-resortfor-most-people steroid injections. I was left facing three months of boneon-bone joint pain as I waited for my surgery date to arrive. Because my hip joint was shot, I couldn’t tolerate even basic physi-

cal therapy or any form of exercise, including swimming. However, my fork-to-mouth muscles worked just fine and I started to pack on the pounds. At eight weeks until surgery, I was in so much pain I had to use a cane to help me walk and I couldn’t sleep more than a few hours at a stretch. As I scoured the internet for suggestions, I read that every pound of weight that we carry on our frame equates to about 10 pounds of pressure on our hips. I reasoned that if I lost some weight, maybe I could get some relief. A friend recommended a low-carb, low-sugar medical diet that had rave reviews online. It was an expensive program, but I was out of other options, so I plunked down my credit card and signed myself up. The diet involved consuming very few carbs, very low sugar and moderate levels of protein. Within three days of cutting carbs and sugar out of my diet, I noticed that my hip and leg pain levels had decreased. At my first weigh-in one week into the diet, I had lost 7 pounds of water weight, which suggested the inflammation was way

down. By week 2 on this diet, my pain had subsided so much that I ditched the cane and I was able to sleep through the night again. After seven weeks on the diet, I had lost 21 pounds and my pain was almost nil. As my surgery date approached, doctors advised that I go back to a “regular diet.” So, for the past few days, I have been indulging in all of the foods I had worked hard to avoid—pasta, fruit, dessert and my favorite beverage … an extra hot Chai Latte from Shoes Cup and Cork in Leesburg. (If you haven’t tried that magical concoction, it tastes like heaven in a cup…if heaven were full of sugar.) Since I’ve started consuming sugar and carbs again, the pain in my hip joint and legs has come raging back. I am not sleeping much at night and the Tylenol bottle is, once again, banging around in my purse. There is no other explanation for the difference in my pain than the amount of sugar in my diet. I’m convinced sugar is toxic and could be responsible for so many of our ailments; joint pain, poor digestion, mental fog,

lousy sleep…and maybe even diseases like cancer. It’s not like we haven’t heard the ‘sugar is not good for you’ message before. But I am living proof of the difference a low sugar diet can make for people who suffer from chronic pain. I’m sharing my story in the hopes that it can help someone else out there. It only took a few days for me to feel the physical benefits. Perhaps it’s worth a try for you, too? Go a week with no sugar in your diet and see how you feel. But before you do … go get yourself an extra hot Chai Latte because once you experience the benefits of eliminating sugar from your diet, you may not be able to enjoy a drink like that ever again!

Road project

Agritourism << FROM 1 and owners of Vanish Farmwoods Brewery in Lucketts, said four years in, he’s been surprised at who he has seen in the tasting room. “When we built it, we were going to be hyper local,” Staples said. “We expected to be a brewery for Lucketts.” Instead, he said, Vanish, situated north of Leesburg on Rt. 15, draws people from all over the region. “Loudoun County is really the only place close to DC that actually makes for a fun day trip,” Staples said. “I may be biased, but if you look at the options for driving an hour from DC, or from Fairfax or any of those places, where would you go?” Buddy Rizer, who heads up the county’s Department of Economic Development, has witnessed firsthand the surge of Loudoun’s agritourism economy. “The concept of agritourism is only a few decades old, but Loudoun has been on the cutting edge of innovation in agriculture,” he said. “Our first farm winery opened 35 years ago, and we’ve averaged more than one new winery opening every year since. Commercial craft brewing in Loudoun dates back 30 years, and Loudoun was the first Virginia county to pass local legislation allowing farm breweries in 2015. As a result, we have nearly one dozen farm breweries in Loudoun and lead Virginia in hops production.”

“Looking ahead, we’re seeing farm vineyards that are ready to build tasting rooms, commodity farmers opening farm stores, and an array of unique farmto-table events. That direct-to-consumer model really benefits Loudoun farms and closes the gap between consumers and producers,” Rizer said. To see agritourism continue to thrive, the Department of Economic Development and Visit Loudoun are partnering on the Take Loudoun Home campaign. The initiative encourages residents and visitors to buy local and share a piece of Loudoun with their family and friends across the world. The campaign focuses on agricultural goods as well as crafts from local artisans. The two organizations will also host another Producer’s Marketplace in January, which connects farmers and other producers to hotels, restaurants and caterers to encourage local sourcing of everything from wine and beer to produce, vegetables and meats. The last Producer’s Marketplace, which took place earlier this year, generated an estimated $182,000 in expected sales. “There’s a real appetite for responsibly-raised food and locally-sourced products, and that was reflected in our campaign’s first growing season. We reached more than 1 million people with our message, our program businesses saw an increase in sales across the board, and we grew the list of participating farms by about 20 percent over the course of the summer,” Rizer said. krodriguez@loudounnow.co

riodically throughout the past three months of the town’s $3.2 million water project, have been informative drills that have helped town leaders better understand how lane closures during the road project will work. “It is very instructive to us,” he said. Vance added that those road flagging operations have shown just how much Rt. 9 traffic is affected by lane closures through town and that the push to get the road project done in much less than three years’ time has been validated. “It really does confirm and reconfirm that we’re making the right decision by getting this thing done quicker,” he said. Pretty soon, the town will begin holding “Pardon Our Dust” meetings, in which stakeholders will be briefed on how the town is managing the project. The town is also working on an “Open for Business” marketing campaign to help continue directing visitors to the area during construction. That campaign is a partnership between the town and Visit Loudoun, the Loudoun County Department of Economic Development, The Loudoun County Chamber of Commerce, the Greater Hillsboro Business Alliance and the Loudoun Heights Agritourism Council. Vance said the town also will have its own campaign that will install wayfinding signs around the area directing visitors to local businesses. pszabo@loudounnow.com

with Cider Mill. “How inconvenient is it to send all these people down these detours and what are we going to do when someone dies?” he asked. Vice Mayor Amy Marasco said that safety is a top concern among town leaders and that, while the town can’t guarantee that no accidents will occur, there would be increased law enforcement in the area monitoring the traffic flow. Vance said the town has about $100,000 set aside in the project budget to pay the Loudoun County Sheriff ’s Office and the Virginia State Police for extra enforcement that the town will direct. He said the town is also looking to purchase remote cameras to help with traffic monitoring. Residential access was also a point of debate. The residents, specifically those living on Cider Mill, expressed concern that they would technically not be allowed to drive down their own road. Gatie Gore, a 36-year Cider Mill resident, suggested that the town or VDOT issue decals for those living on Cider Mill. Marasco said that was a great idea. Residents were also concerned about Rt. 9 being closed through town for the majority of the day for up to 14 months, since they will be forced to take the local detour to get to the hospital in Leesburg or to pick up their kids from Woodgrove High School during emergencies. Marasco said the town will have the ability to work with Archer to open Rt. 9 through town in the event of a catastrophic event. “Construction workers

and received three responses by the deadline. Sagres Construction Corp. bid $22.48 million, General Excavation bid $18.29 million and Archer Western Corp. bid $14.33 million. All fell within the savings estimates town engineers had projected, and two of them were millions less expensive than the lowest bid from the first time around, which saw General Excavation bid $19.95 million. The highest bidder in that first round was Shirley Contracting, which bid $24.99 million. To pay for the project, the town has relied on funding from multiple sources—including $12 million from the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority; $665,000 from the Virginia Department of Health, for the water project portion; and millions from the county. At the close of Fiscal Year 2018, the Board of Supervisors voted to direct $2.5 million from the county’s end-of-year surplus to the town for the project. The board is expected to vote to extend another $7.5 million to the town from its $100 million Fiscal Year 2019 end-of-year surplus this Thursday night. Once construction begins in early 2020, Rt. 9 will be opened to eastbound traffic from 4-9 a.m. on weekdays and then closed for the remainder of those days. One lane will be open all weekend, from 2 p.m. on Friday to 6 p.m. on Sunday. In all, the highway through town will be closed for up to 60 non-consecutive days. Vance said the temporary lane closures along Rt. 9 on the west end of town, which have been happening pe-

are amazing in their training to move out of the way in a disaster,” she said One Round Hill resident also expressed concern about the detour at the meeting and asked how the town would work to keep traffic from cutting through her town. Vance and Marasco pointed out that there would be a law enforcement officer positioned at the Woodgrove Road/Allder School Road intersection to ensure traffic follows the designated detour and doesn’t continue down Woodgrove onto Round Hill’s Main Street. Regardless, the Town of Round Hill is expecting increased cut-through traffic and is working with VDOT to manage it—possibly by installing signage at the Evening Star/Woodgrove Road intersection to direct southbound traffic to Evening Star, and not Main Street; restricting through trucks from using Main Street between Greenwood Drive and West Loudoun Street; and installing a temporary or permanent traffic signal at the East Loudoun Street/Evening Star Drive intersection. The selection of Archer to handle the project comes after a nearly fourmonth process in which the town in August received three above-budget bids. In response, town leaders worked with VDOT to find ways of reducing the project’s cost, ultimately finding that closing Rt. 9 through town for longer periods of time and lengthening construction crews’ days would drastically reduce the duration of, and price tag for, the project. Instead of drawing the project out for up to 36 months, the new plans will see it complete in 12-14 months. The town rebid the project Oct. 10
