CMS helps special ed students feel included with TILT program

By Meredith Rigsby News Editor MECHANICSVILLE — More than eight years ago, Chickahominy Middle School began a program aimed at helping special education students feel

included in their middle school experience. TILT, or Teens Interacting and Learning Together, pairs select general education students with special education students for about 30 minutes per see TILT, pg. 4

ECHANICSVILLE — A little rain didn’t stop locals from showing up in droves at the 2015 Hanover Tomato Festival, held Saturday at Pole Green Park.

“Despite the weather, we still had about 25,000 people show up to enjoy the Hanover Tomato Festival,” Marcy Durrer, recreation program director, Hanover County Parks & Recreation, said.

She estimated attendance at 25,000.

Crowds and vendors donned umbrellas and rain coats, and, despite intermittent rain storms throughout the day, attendees were still able

to have fun, mingle with neighbors, buy local, and, of course, celebrate the Hanover tomato.

Kids climbed the rock wall, and goofed off in the moon bounce. There also was a petting zoo, a small amusement park ride and face/painting at the festival.

The Hanover tomato wasn’t the only fruit to make an appearance;

vendors also were selling fresh peaches and blackberries, as well as homemade honey.

Numerous volunteers helped facilitate the festival while police and Hanover Fire-EMS crews were there to ensure everyone’s safety.

For those that had to park farther away, a John Deere tractor pulled a

shuttle service that picked people up in the parking lot and dropped them off at the front of the festival.

Walking around the venue property, there were Hanover tomato shirts everywhere in addition to a few people dressed in tomato costumes.

Free goodies were available at many of the see TOMATO, pg. 8

day during home room time.

General education students must apply to be able to participate in the program.

When the program first started, an average of about 10 to 15 general education students applied to participate, meaning that just about anyone that applied was able to be involved.

However, as the program has grown and evolved, at least 65 general education students applied to participate this year.

The program could only accept 25 applicants.

“I call it the ripple effect.

The group that’s in it, they saw their friends and the special education kids and got to know them and — before you know it — the whole school is involved with this small group of students,” Katy Packett, a Chickahominy Middle School special education teacher involved in TILT, said. “A lot of them have found a passion in helping these kids and pay it forward.”

General education students are selected to participate in TILT based on their academic standing, a lack of disciplinary issues and a personal interview.

Connor,’ and I was like ‘Who are all these amazing kids?’ I had no idea.”

During the Chipotle outing, Connor McGann waited in line and took photos with the other students, both activities he does not typically have an easy time doing, Patty McGann said.

“The program has just made him become so much more independent and social and just friendly. He hugs everybody now and he says hi to everybody. I mean, it has just done a world of good,” she added.

Patty McGann wants to bring awareness about the TILT program to the community because she said she believes it is a model for inclusion in the middle and high school level, where often kids like her son are left out or separated from the rest of the school.

“Since they have this peer group established, they have someone to hang out with and feel like they really belong in a school setting,” Packett said.

The general education stu-

dents involved in the TILT program also have extended their friendship with the special education students outside of the homeroom class.

Some students act as helpers for the special education kids in dance classes and in sports and, on one occasion, a few of the general education girls took a special education student dress shopping for the eighth grade dance.

Chickahominy Middle School is currently the only school in Hanover County to offer the TILT program. But parents like McGann and teachers like Packett would like to see that change.

“I would love to see it go county-wide,” Packett said.

“Myself and the other teachers involved and parents would be happy to help. We are more than willing to share our applications, our scheduling of the events, our ideas of things to do.”

For now, the TILT program is providing an invaluable service to parents, teachers and general education and special education students at Chickahominy Middle School.

“He [Connor McGann] has friends really for the first time in his life,” Patty McGann said.

“I can’t tell you how much that means to us as parents who want him to be included, and he totally is. It’s just such a great program.”

“It gives the kids a community to belong in and that’s what a lot of kids in special education lose. It can be devastating when you feel like your child doesn’t belong,” Packett said.

General education students who want to participate in TILT must be in eighth grade and special education students are automatically included in the program once parents are sent a letter with details.

TILT is facilitated by Packett, Tony Philpott, a physical education teacher and sports coach, and Alyssa Farling, a seventh grade guidance counselor.

Expanded Internet service approved HANOVER — For years, residents of western and other portions of Hanover County have lamented over the lack of dependable Internet services in the area.

Jim Ridolphi for The Local

New leases approved by the Hanover County Board of Supervisors could mean improved Internet service for the areas served by the Doswell and Poor Farm communication towers.

Service could be up and running in a month or so and basic service will cost around $50 a month.

Numerous community meetings and endless negotiations with cable services have not produced results — at least up until now.

The county held its last informational meeting in February, and it appears all those efforts are bearing fruit.

LastMile Broadband, a startup Internet provider, is planning to provide basic Internet service beginning in as little as 90 days by utilizing space on two of the county’s communication towers located at Poor Farm and Doswell.

Whitt Whittaker of LastMile said the company recognized the need for the service and began recruiting potential customers right away.

“We have reached the 100 minimum number of customers in those areas we mentioned tonight,” said Whittaker. “We are looking at other areas and recruiting new customers for

those areas, but we feel there is definitely a need in Hanover and we want to fill that need.”

Deputy county administrator John Budesky asked supervisors to provide space on the towers at a reduced rate to incentivize the new company’s efforts.

LastMile will pay only 50 percent of the normal rate, and half of that fee will be forgiven during the first year.

“These are leases that in response to what our residents have told us for a number of years — the needs and demands for additional Internet service provision in Hanover County,” Budesky said.

Budesky said LastMile is the first of several potential providers anxious to fill that identified gap in the county.

“LastMile has expressed interest in expanding into Hanover County and addressing some of our service gaps,”

Budesky. “Their intent is to establish services in those areas (Poor Farm and Doswell).

“They already have lists going in several areas to potentially expand beyond the two towers you have before you have in front of you this evening,” he recently told the Hanover County Board of Supervisors.

Budesky said the reduced rate would allow the company to seek new customers and expand while the reduced rate is in effect.

“Primarily this will be a support to get customer bases and expansion throughout the county,” he said.

The deal hinges on LastMile being able to obtain fiber from a third party for the project. see INTERNET, pg. 17

OPINION | The Local Views From the editor

Thanks for another successful festival Disappointed is not a word you’ll hear when it comes to attending the Hanover Tomato Festival. Even in blazing hot temperatures or a sudden summer downpour, the atmosphere is one of excitement and enjoyment.

Thanks to the Hanover Tomato Festival Committee — the Black Creek Volunteer Fire Department, The Herald-Progress, The Mechanicsville Local and the Hanover County Parks and Recreation Department — we have once again been treated to one of the best events in the area.

We are sincere in extending a heartfelt “Thank you” to the committee and all the volunteers (and there are so many!) for all the hours they spend to ensure a great time will be had by all.

Isn’t it amazing when you think about how the festival has grown since 1978? Black Creek VFD went from one food vendor at the station’s old location to the grounds of Pole Green Park being filled to capacity.

We won’t soon forget the festival of 2009 when 42,000 people braved the temperatures and the traffic to take part in breaking an attendance record.

Most of all, the festival — with its humble beginnings — supports the Black Creek Volunteer Fire Department through the sale of Hanover Tomatoes. Funds are used for training and equipment.

As we noted last week, planning and organizing for the Hanover Tomato Festival is a year-round commitment. So, with the 2015 event behind us, it’s time to start looking at 2016.

For many residents in Mechanicsville and Hanover County, the second Saturday in July is circled on the calendar because you know that will be Hanover Tomato Festival day.

You can’t get more family-friendly than with the games and entertainment. And there are so many food choices. We’re supporting our friends and neighbors and those who travel here to take part as vendors.

Sadly, the Little Miss and Tiny Miss Hanover Tomato Festival Pageant came to an end with this year’s event. Director Lynn Watson must be commended for all the years she gave to bringing so much cute to the festival.

Again, to anyone who is involved with the Tomato Festival, thank you.

The more things change . . .

By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist As we ventured out for dinner on the Fourth of July, the streets of the city were deserted. Most Richmonders were on their way to the many organized fireworks displays featured throughout the metro region.

And even an occasional afternoon downpour didn’t dampen enthusiasm for the celebrations, all of them ending in a spectacular predictable fashion with an artful display of explosives.

We watched from afar this year as we cruised around catching glimpses of numerous celebrations creating colorful blasts from all differing directions.

We are usually one of the thou-

sands packed into viewing areas to enjoy the festivities, but this year we did things with a flair toward simplicity.

The weather didn’t look promising as we packed our gear and headed for Beaverdam for the annual Ruritans celebration earlier that morning. It’s not unlike the celebrations that take place in small towns and communities across the nation as America celebrates its birthday.

There were plenty of hot dogs and hamburgers, an ample supply of patriotic music and decorations and hundreds decked out in their best red, white and blue.

There were beauty pageants for aspiring participants of all ages and enough candy to make any child

happy.

It also was a change of pace for my children who are used to the regimented routine of our past Fourths: the large crowds and hurried activity.

But, as I sat on a brick wall enjoying the peace and tranquility of western Hanover county, I noticed the kids getting restless.

“Dad, there’s not much to do here,” one of my kids finally complained.

I explained that celebrating the Fourth of July is not really about doing things, but more about feeling things.

“This is what people do on the Fourth of July,” I replied.

I suppose they understood some see CHANGE, pg. 8

LETTERS | Reader Views

Taking issue with role of slavery in Civil War I got quite a laugh out of Andrew Morehead’s letter.

Confederate throwbacks like him love to say that we should learn history, right before they demonstrate their own lack of that knowledge.

On the idea that the war wasn’t about slavery: Rather than take my word for it, read the text of the Declaration of Secession for South Carolina. It’s right there in the lead paragraphs that South Carolina was seceding for slavery.

Just like the declarations of several other seceding states.

Every single state acknowledged at some point in their secession declaration that slavery was the leading reason they were committing treason. And it definitely was treason — despite the nonsense you’ve read and heard, the 10th did not make secession an acceptable answer to their disagreements.

On his ancestor’s service: By various estimates, less than 2 percent of Southerners owned slaves . . . and very few of them actually fought in the war they worked hard to start.

The antebellum Ssouth was a very hierarchical society, with relatively little of what we would consider middle class; the aristocracy was only too happy to commit poor people they didn’t know and cared even less about as cannon fodder to the cause from which they hoped to

personally gain.

Yes, the war was about economics — the economics of slavery as the easiest way to profit. Not the only way, but the easiest.

Your ancestor may well have believed he was fighting for his commonwealth, but in reality he was fighting for an aristocracy he had been duped into thinking was working in his interests.

Gee, things haven’t changed much in 150 years, have they?

in the country brought back some memories.

Like everything in America, the Fourth of July has become more commercial, more organized and more celebrated over time. Americans cherish the opportunity to endorse the values and beliefs on which their precious country was founded.

When I was little, it was a little less explosive, and fireworks were a rare reward for

excited youths. Most years, we ran around with sparklers in the backyard and sang “Yankee Doodle Dandy.”

I noticed that same brand of enthusiasm as kids frolicked at the Ruritan event in Beaverdam. I also noted a high degree of dedicated respect and reverence for what the holiday means to the people who have reaped the benefits of our forefathers’ good judgment.

The kids ended up happy,

their bellies full of hamburgers and pockets overflowing with yummy candy as we made the trip home.

As we passed the many flags on display in front of homes, I couldn’t help but appreciate the value of a holiday that celebrates the creation of our nation.

Although the Fourth of July has changed considerably since my childhood days, I noted that, in reality, it has changed very little.

Lynn Watson announced Ryleigh Houchins as the 2015 Tiny Miss Hanover Tomato Festival winner and CayleeTesterman as the 2015 Little Miss Hanover Tomato Festival winners.

Kenneth graduated from Louisa High School in 1963, and, after marrying Monica in 1965, moved for a short time to Richmond. There, Kenneth sold automobiles before starting his career with RF&P (CSX) Railroad, where he was to work for 37 years until retirement.

Shortly after joining the railroad, Kenneth and Monica moved their new family to a 1910 farmhouse located not far from his childhood home. The home was and continues to be a place always filled with the love and company of friends, neighbors and family. After retirement, Kenneth truly loved working his “Peaceful View” homestead. He planted his flowers, worked on his tractor, kept his huge yard neatly mowed and trimmed and, of course, nurtured his famous watermelon patch. Ever a fan and collector of antiques, Kenneth enjoyed attending auctions, whether to buy inventory for his wife’s antique shop, to find unique treasures to research and resell online, or to add to his personal collections of tobacco tins, pocket knives and

Natalie Miller for The Local

The Town of Ashland continues a tradition of family fun on the Fourth of July, with events being hosted by the Hanover Arts & Activities Center. The photo at left shows the red, white and blue being displayed proudly by all ages. The Lawn Chair Brigade, a major hit and staple of the parade, is truly a community effort. At right, Angel, “The Patriotic Pooch,” joined in the celebration by showing an American flair.

Jim Ridolphi for The Local

The Fourth of July is celebrated in grand style in Beaverdam every year. With many people decked out in red, white and blue, photo at left, they were waiting for the parade lineup to come their way.

In the middle, David and Annette Pruett found a comfortable spot to enjoy the festivities. At right, brother and sister Tommy and Elayna Wood dressed for the occasion — he was in the holiday spirit and she looked like a Southern belle.

way of that.

When you lack the majority that gives you power in a democracy, you are quite willing to ignore democracy to escalate from shaming and ostracizing to intimidation and threats. If that doesn’t work we become witness to church burnings, racist cops declaring open season on black people under color of authority, and similar actions.

And there is the fear and hate such actions breed.

Steve Sneed Mechanicsville

Praising actions of deputies There seems to be new incidents to compliment and praise the actions of Hanover County law enforcement on a regular basis!

The following three recently happened and I want to acknowledge the officers involved for exceptional service.

On Memorial Day I was stopped on U.S. 360 by Deputy Seth Mahler to address an issue with my vehicle. He was pleasant, engaging and eased my tension over the infraction, but when he walked away he said, “God Bless” — I was overcome with emotion at those two words that mean so much but we are afraid to utter on a regular basis, especially to strangers.

The officer’s demeanor and

Internet access issues in the county.

“The board’s initiative has been that support business expansion from the private sector and not entering the realm of Internet service provision ourselves,” Budesky said.

The lowered lease rates, public/private partnerships

and leveraging the county’s infrastructure are methods of achieving that expansion, and Budesky said there are more possibilities on the horizon.

“We are currently in negotiation with another company who is expressing interest in to expansion into the county,” he said.

The LastMile coverage will expand six miles out from each tower and overlap in some areas.

Wayne Hazzard, chairman of the board of supervisors, endorsed the lease arrangements.

“This gives the people in the western part of the county

an opportunity to have the Internet service they said they wanted. I hope they take advantage of this,” Hazzard said.

Beaverdam District supervisor Aubrey “Bucky” Stanley said the new service is an answer to concerns raised by citizens regarding service and expressed at several commu-

nity meetings, the last held in February.

“This is another option for folks up there,” Stanley said.

“Whether it works for them or not, I do not know.”

The company will offer service beginning at $49.95 a month and should be up and running in a month or so.

kind words have stayed with me and I have repeated my traffic stop experience many times.

On July 5, I was returning from church when I encountered a Walker Hound nervously crisscrossing Rural Point Road. I stopped and tried to urge her out of the road and soon other drivers were braking, swerving and slowing down to avoid her.

A dad and his two daughters pulled over with me and all four of us tried in vain to get close enough to read her collar.

As the rain and darkness intensified, I called the Hanover County Sheriff ‘s Office for assistance and Animal Control was dispatched, along with two deputies to assist as the situation was not going to end well for the dog or traffic.

Deputy Janay Osborne arrived first and she worked with us to protect the dog and traffic.

Deputy Osborne turned on the blue lights of her vehicle to alert traffic of a situation and we kept the dog out of the road until Deputy Seth Mahler and Officer Miles from animal control arrived. All of us, along with a local property owner, continued to coax the dog to us and safety and amazingly Deputy Mahler succeeded by very slowly and gently approaching her and finally taking hold of her collar, and the owner’s name was quickly determined.

Animal Control is quite familiar with the owner and has had many calls from him

about other dogs he owns that have been lost.

I hope that he takes steps to keep his dogs safe and appreciates the efforts of all involved in bringing his dog home. Road and weather conditions were hazardous and the dog was so close to harm or worse.

Thank you, Deputies Osborne, Mahler and Officer Miles of Animal Control. It was a difficult and unpleasant task and took over an hour to safely secure the dog and prevent an accident.

I also want to thank the officer that was at the Beaverdam Fourth event on Saturday — he was friendly and engaging with the community there and especially with the children.

Thank you.

God bless.

point a racist finger at a previous letter-writer is right out of Saul Alinsky’s book “Rules for Radicals.” The writer has chosen Alinsky’s 13th rule, “Pick a target, freeze it, personalize it.” By doing this, the writer has injected racism into the redefinition of thug.

The radical leftist liberals, as they like to be called, adhere to the tradition of ignoring facts. To them, facts are nothing more than a distraction.

Take for instance Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The writer fails to note that FDR signed Executive Order 9066, result-

ing in the forced confiscation of property, relocation and incarceration of 110,000 to 120,000 American citizens of Japanese ancestry. FDR denied them their U.S. constitutional rights as guaranteed in the 14th Amendment.

Responding to ‘thug’ letter (Editor’s note: The following is in response to a letter to the editor from Richard Ryder that appeared in the July 1, 2015, edition of The Mechanicsville Local.)

My letter is in response to the vitriolic, obscene and ignorant ramblings. The writer starts off by redefining the word “thug.” Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines thug as a brutal ruffian or assassin, tracing its origin back to the 1850s and of Hindu use as thief.

Nowhere does it define thug to mean “young black males.”

buildings were all segregated by none other than President Woodrow Wilson, Democrat, liberal and progressive. He also put people in jail for exercising their right to free speech as listed in the U.S. Constitution.

Then there was Lyndon B. Johnson who signed into law the 1964 Civil Right Law. It’s not important to the writer that the Democratic senators almost filibustered it out. LBJ

also created the Great Society that destroyed the black family structure.

The programs put into effect by LBJ ran out of funding in the first year because all of the allocations were consumed with opulent buildings and offices as well as high paychecks for the upper management.

The organizations had to go back to Congress for more funding in order to perform

their duties.

Last but not least, most of the people cited by the writer were Republicans.

The writer’s letter is clearly following the script of Saul Alinsky who states: “The first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom: Lucifer.”

Hanover-Fire EMS responded to a fire last Wednesday in the 4000 block of Rockhill Road in Mechanicsville. No one was home at the time, but a family of five was displaced due to the blaze.

Staff Report news@mechlocal.com MECHANICSVILLE – A family of five was displaced by fire last Wednesday in the 4000 block of Rockhill Road. No one was home at the time and there were no injuries reported.

Battalion Chief Jason Williams of Hanover Fire-EMS said the family was receiving assistance from the American Red Cross.

Crews were dispatched at 1:45 p.m. July 8 to a two-story residence. Upon arrival, they

found smoke coming from the roof.

Firefighters quickly entered the house and searched for occupants. Williams said they “made an aggressive attack on the fire.�

Approximately 20 fire personnel brought the fire under control in about 30 minutes. “The Hanover Fire Marshal’s Office is working to determine what caused the fire, but say that it appears to have started in the kitchen area and traveled to the second floor of the home,� Williams said.

“Hanover Fire-EMS reminds you to have working smoke alarms on each floor of your home and outside of each sleeping area,� he added.

Hanover Fire-EMS recommends that smoke alarms greater than 10 years old be replaced.

Anyone requiring special assistance with smoke alarms should contact the Hanover Fire-EMS Department at 804365-6195. If you live outside of Hanover County, you can call the Metro Richmond Smoke Alarm Hotline at 1-888-537-5967.

Blake and Nelson were invited to be part of the rally and march across the Pettus Bridge as Dr. King’s group did 50 years ago. The march was in support of the national Black Women Matter campaign led by pro-life leaders in the black community. Several hundred men, women and children marched across the Pettus bridge. The most notable participant was Rev. Dr. Alveda King, the niece of Dr. King. Dr. King marched with her father and uncle in 1965.

Three generations of the King family participated in the June 19 march. Blake said it was a once in a lifetime experience for a very worthwhile cause: human life.

Church demolishes part of building built in 1904

By Meredith Rigsby News Editor MECHANICSVILLE — In late April, Pole Green Church of Christ began preparations to knock down the original portion of its building that was established in 1904.

The oldest part of the church was not being utilized for anything other than one Sunday School class and the pastor’s office. It also was on its way to becoming a safety hazard.

In addition, the cost of upkeep for the building each month was not being justified by the use. “The main reason for what we did was, we’re not using it that much and we’re spending a lot of money to upkeep it,�

Pastor E.L. Jones said. “We’re landlocked in a sense, so why don’t we just knock it down,

open up our property some more so then in the future, in the years down the road, we can look about adding on or building. It just gives us flexibility.�

In the beginning phases of the construction, asbestos had to be removed from the building and the church had to obtain specific permits and certificates for the beak down.

In early May, the electric was disconnected, and the old structure was detached from the newer building on June 29. The following Friday, July 3, Cranemasters construction company bulldozed the old building.

Construction on the area will not be complete for another two or three weeks, E.L. Jones said.

Now that the building is gone, drainage pipes must be

replaced, the area must be water sealed, a small amount of bricking must be done, and the area needs to be framed to match the other building.

Once those preparations are complete, the church plans to place top soil on that section of the property and lay grass seed down. “One of the neat things they are doing too, is not just the church people but the community people ‌ they let them come and get old bricks, get whatever you want,â€? David Jones, former pastor for 28 years and E.L. Jones’ father, said. “The building isn’t just being thrown away. There has been a lot of history.â€?

There are no future usage plans for the area as of yet, but a small strip of gravel may be placed on the side to allow for additional parking during

Third time didn’t work for Raiders Richmond falls 64-38 to Columbus Lions in PIFL championship game

By Justin Ferguson for The Mechanicsville Local COLUMBUS, Georgia — The Richmond Raiders entered Monday night’s PIFL championship game hoping the third time would indeed be the charm.

Richmond had lost two title games in the past three seasons, and the Raiders had lost to their championship opponents, the Columbus Lions, twice in the 2015 regular season — both on last-minute plays.

But this rematch wasn’t even close.

A nightmare end to the second quarter carried over to the third and doomed the Raiders again as they fell 64-38 to the Lions.

Raiders quarterback Jonathan Bane finished 24 of 52 passing for 264 yards, five touchdowns and two costly interceptions. Receiver Herb Jones had 10 catches for 157 yards and three of Bane’s scores.

Richmond (9-5) had three turnovers and was stopped on downs three times as Columbus’ defense provided intense pressure on Bane following an early scoring outburst.

Columbus’ Casey Kacz completed 16 of 26 passes for

34

187 yards and four scores, and fullback Kendrick Perry rumbled his way for three short touchdown runs.

Richmond raced out to a 9-0 lead in the opening quarter after forcing a turnover on

for an early score, T.C. Stevens nailed a 39-yard field goal for the Raiders.

Kacz’s quarterback sneak late in the first quarter put the Lions (10-3) on the scoreboard.

The two sides traded passing

A fourth down attempt from Bane was tipped at the line and intercepted by Columbus, which scored two plays later. Bane threw another pick on the ensuing drive, and the hosts took a 37-24 lead into

start the second half, but turned it over on downs. Following another quick touchdown by Fortson, the Columbus defense stripped Bane on a sack, and Damia Thornton took the fumble 8 yards for another score to make it 50-24.

Richmond stopped the bleeding late in the third quarter with Bane’s 35-yard pass to Jones, who bounced off several defenders for his second receiving touchdown of the night. But Columbus answered with Perry’s 8-yard TD run to take a 57-31 lead into the final quarter.

Columbus’ defense forced a turnover on downs on three consecutive possessions before Bane found Jones for a short touchdown pass with 30 seconds remaining.

Old Church swimmers cheer team on to victory

By Billy Fellin for The Mechanicsville Local MECHANICSVILLE – Under dark skies and the fading sun of a July day in Hanover, Old Church swim team members Bailey Cordle and Dylan Bowman were standing poolside, leaning over and yelling encouragement to their teammates when they came to the surface or made a turn at the wall.

They just weren’t yelling anything, but rather specific encouragement for their teammates, like longtime relay teammates Elizabeth Kramer and Chandler Foster.

“You figure out each other’s patterns,” Foster said. “You know when other people need cheering and you know how to get yourself and them amped up.”

That kind of experience swimming together, especially on a mixed relay team, pays significant dividends.

“If you do relay with no one you know, there’s no special feelings,” Bowman said. “But, when you’ve been with the same people for 16 to 17 years of your life, it’s different.”

Preparation for these meets also is a key to the swimmers success.

“Carbs and hydration,” Foster said. “You try to just get

and to display their talents in front of top NCAA coaches.

The showcase includes practice sessions and games coached by college coaches.

Additional sessions include a recruiting roundtable with the 804 Lacrosse Summer Showcase staff members.

a chilled-out day. If you do a lot, you’re going to mentally get tired. In your race, it is 90 percent mental and 10 percent physical.”

“I sleep in, eat some food, sometimes healthy, listen to some music and just swim,” The Federal Club’s Virginia Gray said.

The Old Church team of Kramer, Cordle, Foster and Bowman swam a 1:55.41 in the mixed 15-18 200-yard medley relay as Old Church defeated The Federal Club 1,110-

520 in a Greater Richmond Aquatic League swim meet Wednesday, July 8, at the Old Church Community Center.

Kramer was a quad winner (50 breast stroke, 50 freestyle, 100 individual medley, 100 backstroke) at the meet while Cordle and Bowman were each triple winners.

Cordle also won the 50 freestyle and 100 butterfly, while Bowman also won the 50 breaststroke and 50 freestyle in addition to being part of the winning 200-yard medley

team.

For The Federal Club, Madison Heaton was one of the triple winners, victorious in her divisions in the 100 individual medley, 100 backstroke and the 50 freestyle.

“I think we’ve done pretty well this meet,” Heaton said.

“I think we had good team spirit.”

Heaton and Gray are two swimmers among many that swim for both a club team as well as their school teams Heaton swims for St.

Gertrude High School while Gray swims for Douglas Freeman High School.

“Summer swim team is more chill and laid back,” Gray said of the difference between the two. “It’s less intense.”

In addition to Kramer, Joelle Agee, Max Bidou, Morgan Bowman, Nathan Kelly, Elizabeth Kramer, Liz Laprade, Aidan Rice and Zoey Sargent were quad winners for Old Church. Kyle Anderson, Henry Atkinson, Dylan Bowman, Bailey Cordle,

Savannah Kramer, Jack O’Bier, Andrew Peter, Katelyn Vieni, Leah Young and Paul Young were triple winners for the club.

Amanda Barnard, Avery Gates, Alex Gertner, Kieffer Gilman-Strickland and Madison Heaton were triple winners for The Federal Club.

Old Church will head to Antioch for a meet next week while The Federal Club has a bye week.
