Public input wanted as interest grows in changing schools’ names By Jim Ridolphi for The Mechanicsville Local
ASHLAND -- Hanover County School Board chair Sue Dibble told a packed meeting last week that the panel was well aware Jim Ridolphi for The Local of an issue that seems to be gathering Jerome Coles, left, said some of his family members refused to attend Lee-Davis High School, but he did and obtained his degree, strength on both sides of the argument. but “it wasn’t easy.� Marsha Boyce Rider, right, told Hanover Last month, more than a half dozen County School Board members she had a petition with more than speakers expressed concerns regarding 7,000 names in support of keeping the names of Lee-Davis High the names of two Hanover County Public School and Stonewall Jackson Middle School just as they are.
Schools, Stonewall Jackson Middle School and Lee-Davis High School, and suggested the school board begin a process to change the names. In addition to those public proclamations, Dibble said the board had received numerous comments regarding the issue, both pro and con, and asked the public to supply more opinions on the subject. Dibble asked Dr. Michael Gill, superintendent of Hanover County Public Schools,
to set up a response receptacle to collect the varied opinions and present them in a forum open for all to review. “There’s a significant interest in this topic,� Dibble said. “Since the last school board meeting, several individuals have contacted us and shared their thoughts on this matter, both for and against.� She also acknowledged the complexity

SHLAND – The Richmond Symphony and Music Director Steven Smith will perform at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 21, for a Metro Collection concert, including chamber pieces by Salieri, Norman Bolter, Crawford Seeger and Mozart. Z achary Guiles, the Richmond Symphony’s principal trombonist, will be the featured soloist on Norman Bolter’s IOU RS for Trombone and Chamber Orchestra. All Metro Collection concerts are held in the Blackwell Auditorium on the RandolphMacon College campus. Norman Bolter credits Mr. Greenjeans, a character who was featured playing trombone in an episode of Captain K angaroo, for inspiring him to start playing music. At just 18, he became a member of the Boston Symphony and is on the faculties of both New England Conservatory and Boston Conservatory. His compositions are inspired primarily by the natural world and the human experience. Bolter was inspired to write IOU RS about the cosmic trinity: the sun, the earth, and the moon. Each movement is meant to connect various cosmic bodies culminating in praise of our mighty sun. The featured works by Ruth Crawford Seeger stand to represent two distinct phases of life. Andante for Strings is an orchestral arrangement of the third movement of her String Q uartet;a piece that showcases her involvement with the modernist movement and evokes the 1920s. In contrast, Rissolty, Rossolty was composed for a radio program called The Wellsprings of America. This piece is much less complex and has a more simple arrangement that tells a story of a hapless husband burdened by a lazy wife. In early 1787, the city of Prague invited
Mozart for a visit. A ball was held in his honor and, in turn, he hosted a benefit concert as a thank you. The Symphony in D minor was a part of that benefit concert and is often called “The Prague Symphony.” Tickets are $22 for adults, $20 for seniors, $10 for children and $10 at the door for college students and faculty with ID. Purchase tickets online at richmondsymphony.com or by calling 1-800-514-ETIX . A free pre-concert talk will be held from 2 to 2:30 p.m. in the Dollar Tree Community Room on the second floor of Brock Commons across from the Blackwell Auditorium.

LETTERS
From the managing editor
Always thank those who give their time By Melody Kinser Managing Editor A letter to the editor in today’s edition praises the efforts of volunteer firefighters in Hanover County. We couldn’t agree more with what Carroll Eaves said about the fine men and women who dedicate themselves to our safety -- and without the benefit of financial compensation. When icy cold and snowy wintry conditions rolled into our area on Jan. 4, many of us enjoyed the warm security of our homes or workplaces. As the daughter of an electric utility lineman, thoughts always turn to those who brave the ele-
ments to make our lives comfortable. We had a post on our Facebook page the weekend that we were paralyzed by the cold sending prayers to Fire-EMS, deputies, utility workers and road crews. The response was incredible and one follower even pointed out tow truck drivers. They certainly merit acknowledgement. This isn’t the first time this issue has been addressed in this forum. I’ll admit I’m guilty sometimes about being a creature of convenience and not being as attentive as I should be until the lights go out (literally). Virginia Department of Transportation crews
were out in 12-hour shifts, working around-theclock to keep major highways clear of snow and ice. Hanover Fire-EMS battled blazes during record-setting cold weather. Deputies responded to countless weather-related mishaps. Utility workers endured the cold too as they did their best to resume services during outages. We should consider ourselves fortunate and blessed with those who go out in whatever conditions to provide the services we need, want and expect. Thank them. Thank them every day -- not just when the temperature drops below zero. We extend our most sincere gratitude to all.
Olympic story tells about the price of protest By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist
It’s the height of the NFL playoff season, and issues that dominated this year’s regular season action are little more than an afterthought. I’m not talking about some of the outstanding and amazing play that occurred on the field, but a set of protests that took place prior to the game’s beginnings. Throughout the year, a limited number of players took a knee during the playing of the National Anthem, protesting perceived injustices toward
minorities during their interaction with police and other social justice issues. Problem is, the protests received more attention than the issues that prompted the protests, and the pregame exhibits became more of a distraction than a legitimate protest. While I certainly empathize with the intents of the protests, and the sacrifice made by some who took the action, including former quarterback Colin Kapernick, the overall result of the actions was somehow lost in the hype.

For many Americans, the idea of protesting during the presentation of the anthem is unacceptable, an inappropriate response to the injustices that surely do exist. While the message was meaningful, the delivery was flawed and the target of the actions seemed unclear. For many, the protests recalled a period in American history when a protest during the National Anthem did receive maximum attention, and the athletes who participated paid an enormous price for their decision to participate.
When the 1968 Summer Olympics began in Mexico City, America was in a racial state of turmoil. Cities across the nation were embroiled in racial strife, and riots had erupted in most major cities across the nation. From the opening ceremonies, there was an undercurrent of protest by black American athletes, and various forms of protests were considered, but later abandoned. There were even calls for black athletes to boycott the Games entirely. When American sprinters Tommie see PROTEST, pg. 7 }

Member of National Guard thanked for his service An out of town friend of mine, who is a full-time member of the Virginia National Guard, recently came to visit. He was dressed in uniform, having just completed his duties earlier in the day. We went to Outback Steakhouse in Mechanicsville for dinner. We had been seated a short time when a couple that had completed their dinner stopped by to thank my friend for his service. The gentleman remarked that he was a Vietnam veteran. My friend thanked him for his service and the people departed. A few minutes later, a waiter approached my friend and gave him $40. The departing couple had paid for his dinner. My friend was very surprised, pleased, and honored. Our dinner was served and about halfway through a lady stopped by and also sincerely thanked my friend for his service. She handed him a gift card from Outback. My friend was now even more impressed and commented about what a special place Hanover must be. We concluded our dinner and the waiter who had proved excellent service throughout the meal also thanked my friend, and remarked that a military discount had been applied to the check total. Thank, you to the Vietnam veteran and his wife; thank you to the lady; and thank you to Outback and Bernard, our waiter. Hanover is truly a special place. Bob Bailie Mechanicsville see LETTERS, pg. 8 }
PROTEST Continued from pg. 6
Smith and John Carlos took their turns on the podium for medal presentations, the events that followed shocked the world. Smith had captured the gold medal in the 200-meter run, while Carlos had earned a bronze medal for this third place finish. When the two climbed to the podium and the anthem began, they raised their blackgloved fists in protest in what they described as a human rights salute. The duo left the podium to a chorus of boos, and Olympic officials attempted to have them removed from the Olympic Village. The event is heralded as the single most significant moment of protest in the history of the Olympic Games. But, who was the third man on the podium that momentous day, a forgotten face in the pages of history?
Peter Norman was an Australian sprinter who arrived in Mexico City with high hopes for a gold medal. His previous times indicated he might have a chance, but Smith’s performance dashed those hopes. Throughout the games, Norman had observed discussions regarding various forms of protest by black American athletes. The record-holding sprinter was no stranger to racial tension and segregation, and had been an open opponent of his country’s white-only policy regarding Olympic athletes. Norman supported his two fellow athletes on the podium by clearly displaying an Olympic Project for Human Rights patch on his shirt. He did not raise his fist in protest when the Australian anthem played, but it was clear that Norman was empathetic and supportive to the plight of his fellow athletes. While Smith and Carlos returned to the U nited States
and an atmosphere of retribution for their seemingly unpatriotic actions, they eventually achieved athlete success as professionals. Smith played in the NFL for years and Carlos had a notable career in the Canadian Football League. Norman’s fate was much different. He endured the ire of his country, and was never allowed to return to the Games although his talents indicated otherwise. He too pursued a pro career playing Australian Rules football, and was steadfast with his decision to support Smith and Carlos. In fact, the three remained in contact and friends until Norman passed away in 2006. Over the years, a grateful nation came to appreciate the actions of the sprinters. More importantly, Smith and Carlos became inspiration and motivation for young black athletes across the world to stand for equality and fair treatment.
Protests at other Olympic Games followed, but none had the impact of Smith, Norman and Carlos’ subtle gestures on that steamy afternoon in Mexico City. So, what was the price of protest for these three athletes and, in the end, was it all worth it? To a man, they answered without hesitation in the affirmative. The recent protests preceding NFL games has not achieved the same results, and I’m not sure if the protesters have ever considered the lives of Smith, Carlos and Norman, but they should. Eventually, the significance of the 1968 protest has been verified by the institutions that at first disclaimed an association with the defiant gesture. Smith and Carlos have been honored in numerous statues, murals and plaques across the nation. But, Peter Norman serves as a forgotten reminder of the sacrifices made by those whose
lives were changed or altered by small acts of courage like the Australian’s support of the protest. Though forgotten by his countrymen and shunned by the Olympic Committee, Norman’s sacrifice was never ignored by the men who stood beside him on that podium with bare feet and raised fists. When his family and friends gathered to wish Norman a final goodbye along the coast in Australia, Tommie Smith was there with a final salute to his comrade in conflict. A forgotten man? Maybe, but certainly not in the minds of those who followed or the numerous athletes who credit their courage to the sacrifices made by three brave athletes on a podium in Mexico City. Finally, the story of Smith, Carlos and Norman provides a lesson on perspective, and how it can change as years pass. With the advantage of passed time, things often become clear and the obvious endures.

A 121 Year Tradition of Caring
LETTERS Continued from pg. 6
Reader: The Left is hypocritical in preaching Regarding renaming schools/streets and removing Confederate monuments, I’m OK with that, but absolutely not for the reasons given by progressives/liberals (collectively “The Left”). Moreover, renaming/ removing is OK only in conjunction with renaming/removing all memorials in America to all historical figures, regardless of race, gender or what country/ state they served.
Congratulations

Further, as we debate which historical figures are acceptable and which are not, it is time to address the extensive hypocrisy on The Left. So many on The Left preach “diversity,” “inclusiveness” and “tolerance,” but they practice none of these (based on the original meanings of these words). They deplore bigotry, yet so many of them are practicing bigots. I’m 64, white, male and a native of North Carolina with deep roots in Virginia/North Carolina. I am a Southerner, which I define as any person, regardless of race, with roots in the South and who embraces the South. I consider myself to be tolerant, inclusive and I embrace diversity, but only as long as those words mean what they used to mean, not based on how they are used by most of The Left today. Like virtually every Southerner with Virginia/ North Carolina roots in the 1700s (regardless of racial identity), I have ancestors who owned slaves; ancestors who did not own slaves; and relatives who identify as being of a different race. (Unlike many Southerners, I have not yet identified an ancestor in American who was enslaved, but as we progress toward socialism, we all are becoming enslaved.) When I was in high school (1970s), I had a teacher (African-American, using today’s terminology) who assured his class that there was very little difference between the KKK (of that day) and the NAACP (of that day). How refreshing to have been influenced by an AfricanAmerican who did not blindly accept The Left’s hypocrisy. I’m sick and tired of the credibility given to organizations such as the NAACP and the Southern Poverty Law
Center (SPLC). If the KKK is a “hate group” (and I certainly believe it is), then the NAACP is at least a “dislike intensely group.” Further, I know that the SPLC is a hate group since people like me are the object of their hatred. Yet the press continually cites the SPLC as a credible source. (How hypocritical that a hate group is cited as a source for monitoring hate groups). To be clear, those members of the NAACP who hate and all members of the SPLC do not hate based on race. Their hatred is for those who do not embrace their ideology. Now we have Hanover Together, an organization with which I am not familiar. Based solely on what I read in their Dec. 27, 2017, letter to The Mechanicsville Local, Hanover Together appears to be in lock step with the NAACP and the SPLC. It is my hope that neither the Hanover County School Board or any other Hanover County official would ever give credibility to the opinion of the KKK. Moreover, there are all kinds of hate groups out there, some based on racial hatred, some not. It is time to stop giving credibility to hate groups on The Left. Rename/remove memorials in an inclusive manner. Since we will never agree regarding who is and is not worthy of being memorialized, the “inclusive” solution is to memorialize no one. C. Lee Turner Mechanicsville
for his help in passing tax reform. This new tax bill will be a boon to our economy. Already the stock market is up and unemployment is down. Thank you, Rep. Wittman. After the court made Hanover County part of the First District, I have met with Rep. Wittman many times. I have always admired him for his accessibility and willingness to answer questions on all matters. The First District is one of the most diverse districts in Virginia. Rep Wittman has done a great job of meeting the requirements of the First District. His support of the tax bill shows Rep. Wittman is pro jobs and growth. As a retired person, it has been nice to see my 401(K) plan go up and my tax bill to go down. The Gloom and Doom predictions of the liberals have all been wrong. Growth and jobs is just what we need. Now we seem to be getting it. Thank you, Rep. Wittman. Larnie Allgood Mechanicsville
Fire volunteers thanked for years of service
As founder and lifetime member of the Eastern Hanover Volunteer Fire Department, Company 3, I would like to thank every volunteer fireman in Hanover for the past many years of excellent service you performed in the many years before paid firemen came. Some of you have several years of dedicated service. One in particular is Doug Andrews, who continues to volunteer for over 50 years! Thank you, Doug, for your dedication.

input,” he said. “It’s not our job to be an extension of county administration or any other department or office. We are wholly separate in our duties and responsibilities. Our most important input comes from our citizens,” Davis said.
Davis and his wife Lisa have three children. Davis and Kelly-Wiecek acknowledged the efforts of Col. David R. Hines, sheriff, during their organizational remarks. Kelly-Wiecek acknowledged
and thanked her colleagues for their support during the past months as the county engaged in challenging issues like the DC2RVA rail issue and a 20172035 Comprehensive Plan update. “I wish to commend the
efforts of Mr. [Aubrey “Bucky”] Stanley and Ms. [Faye] Prichard in not only leading those discussions, but fiercely fighting for their constituents in the face of the high speed rail issue,” Kelly-Wiecek said. “While tensions and emotions ran high,

I can fully understand Mr. [Steve] Sneed’s comments to my recent letter but I’m not totally sure he understood my perspective. I have a problem with the monuments because I don’t believe in second place trophies. When you lose you lose! In a fight there is only one winner.
I say send the statues up North to their rightful owner, the winner. The Yanks can do a small makeover so they look like Yankee Generals or better yet change them to look like Confederate prisoners of war. One thing learned from Mr. Sneed’s letter is that during past
presidential elections I have often heard people say, “You should have seen the mob of people at the polls voting for the president” and I’m thinking “mob” means a good turnout. I had never before considered voters as being actual mobs but it does make sense when voters are explained as
sheep and wolves. Never again will I consider turnout a good thing. And to protect my reputation so I don’t get associated with having mob connections, I intend to do absentee voting from now on. Ted Mentz Old Church

Miguel M. Sr. “Papi� Acosta, 83, of Henrico, went to be with the Lord, Monday, January 8, 2018. He was preceded in death by his wife of 50 years, Hilda Acosta. Miguel is survived by his son, Miguel Acosta Jr. (Teresa); and five grandACOSTA children, Andrew, David, Michael, Lauren and Leigha Acosta. Miguel M. Acosta Sr., Papi as he was known to his family, was a remarkable man. His life deserves to be celebrated.
Throughout it, he was brave, faithful and loving. Having lived under the oppression of communism in Cuba, he bravely found a way to get his family to freedom in America. In 1967, with the help of his brother and careful planning, he, his wife and young son were airlifted with others out of Cuba to a new home in America. The Cuban government allowed them to leave with the clothes on their backs and nothing else. Arriving in Miami, he helped his family adjust to their new country, new language, new customs and new citizenship. Papi loved and respected the U.S. and taught his son to do the same. He and his wife worked hard and made a life for their family. Through those difficult years
he remained faithful in his service to his Lord. He was faithful to his church and in his service there. Papi kept a servant’s heart in spite of the challenges of life in Cuba and the early years in Miami. Several years ago he and his wife moved to Richmond to be closer to their son and his family. It was here he faced his greatest challenge. Shortly after arriving, his precious wife lost her life in a tragic accident. He had to face a new life without her. Once again, he remained faithful to his church, his Lord and his service to others. As the years passed, his health declined and medicines, doctors and treatments became necessary. Pain and physical weakness increased and dialysis became part of his life. But he remained

Strawberry Faire, Kiwanis Club form partnership ASHLAND -- The Ashland Strawberry Faire’s Board of Directors has entered into a new partnership with the Ashland Kiwanis Club. Both groups are long-standing Ashland organizations with a history of service to the community. About a year ago, members of the Ashland Kiwanis Club approached the Board of Directors of the Ashland Strawberry Faire expressing an interest in partnering with the board to help host the annual Faire. “When we met to discuss Faire operations and expectations, they didn’t run away,” laughed Dani Stockwell, the Faire’s treasurer. “It is a monumental undertaking to put on the Ashland Strawberry Faire, which is staffed primarily by volunteers,” said Sharon Chidsey, board president. Chidsey has been volunteer-
ing with the Faire since about 2011. Prior to that, she was actually a vendor at the Faire and that helps her keep things in perspective for both the vol-
and Ken Gustufson, owner of the Ashland Berry Farm, initially gathered all the local arts, crafts, and nonprofit groups they could to participate in the

There’s a new buzz coming to Ashland next month ASHLAND -- Ashland will be the “bee’s knees” come February as the Ashland Beekeepers Association’s annual beekeeping class returns with a four-session Beekeeping 101 class. The class will run each Monday evening, starting Feb. 12 through March 5 from 6:30 to 9 p.m. at the Family Life Baptist Church at 206 S. Washington Hwy. in Ashland. Interest continues to grow in getting back to nature with local, homegrown foods, and beekeeping is one way to add

your own raw honey to your table. North Americans tend to consider honey primarily as a sweetener, whereas most of the rest of the world sees it as an artisan food. It’s no wonder that survey results predict a 41% drop in honey production in the United States for 2017. Low-cost imported honey now accounts for 70% to 80% of the honey consumed in the U.S., according to the latest USDA figures. The course consists of lectures and demonstrations.

All commercial food vendors that participate each year are required to sponsor and give a percentage of their profits to a nonprofit of their choice. The “Kids Zone” is run by volunteers and all profits are donated to Comfort Zone Camps. In recent years, the Faire has contributed funds to nonprofit organizations in a “Grant for Work” program in trade for their volunteer hours running the Faire (for example, setup, cleanup, vendor and/or visitor support). The Ashland Strawberry Faire Board of Directors said it is excited about partnering with the Ashland Kiwanis Club, and to combine their efforts to support the community. To handle Faire business and give continuity to its goals, the board needs a minimum of 11 directors. Three Kiwanis
members, Dan DiCandilo, John McDaniel and Shannon McClure, have stepped up to fill empty seats on the board. “We really appreciate the enthusiasm of the Ashland Kiwanis Club, and, more importantly, are confident that the good work of the Faire will continue,” said Stockwell. Vi s i t w w w. AshlandStrawberryFaire.com and ashlandvakiwanis.org for more information. Both the Ashland Strawberry Faire and the Ashland Kiwanis Club are 501c3 organizations.

Each month, members focus on a particular aspect of the Faire, including budget, policies, vendor regulations, grants, sponsorships, printed materials, and public safety. The Faire gives back to the community by awarding 10 local scholarships each year. “In 2017, the Board offered $6,000 in scholarship funds to graduating seniors from Hanover County Public Schools, and one in honor of former Mayor Dick Gillis, to a Randolph-Macon College student majoring in political science” said Betty LaPlace, director of Scholarships. A big part of the goal of the Faire is to support our many community nonprofits. Nonprofit organizations are offered free booth spaces for visibility, with a $25 administra-

Sargeant “recognition for making Reynolds Community College Reynolds a first-rate instiPresident Gary L. Rhodes tute of higher learning in the announced Tuesday, Jan. 9, that he will retire Sept. 1 after more than 15 years at the college. The Virginia Community College System will soon launch a nationwide search for Rhodes’ successor, a college spokesman said. With 17,000 students on three campuses, Reynolds is the third largest college in terms of enrollment in the Virginia Community College System.

cal contractor, and also a 1980 graduate of the college. Baril and Haddon cited the college’s proposed culinary school in Richmond’s East End as an example of an innovative approach to benefit the community. The school will be part of a mixed-use development at North 25th Street and Nine Mile Road called Church Hill North that will include a grocery store, which is under construction and projected to open in November. A Reynolds spokesman has said the college hopes to be conducting classes in the building by fall 2019. Virginia Commonwealth University and the VCU Health System also are partners in the development. Baril called the culinary school in an underserved area of the city Rhodes’ “crowning achievement.� Haddon said it will “give local residents greater access to the college’s many occupational programs.� “Gary has also played an important and active role in bringing government, academic and business to the table for meaningful conversation on creating workforce — changing the paradigm on providing young people knowledge of an access to many career paths — whether professional or technical in their nature.� Rhodes is an ultimate networker dedicated not only to meeting and introducing people but also to “(making) sure folks are connected and know what’s going on in the community� and to helping them find ways to be engaged, said Kim Scheeler, president and CEO of ChamberRVA. “He’s just so connected into the fabric of the community,� Scheeler said. “It’s going to be a see REYNOLDS, pg. 22 }

of the issue. “There appear to be many different perspectives,” she said. “We will continue to be open to and carefully consider any thoughts, any comments or any concerns that we receive from the community.” The board requested the superintendent to establish an “insturment” to collect future comments “for Hanover citizens to provide input in to this matter. “We believe this will better allow us to collect, catalog and consider any feedback in a more organized fashion,” the chair said. Dibble said that tool should be in effect by the end of the month. During a public comment period, an equal number of proponents and opponents spoke regarding the issue. Marsha Boyce Rider is 1977 graduate of Lee-Davis High
School and is a lifelong resident of Hanover County. “I’m here to share with you that these students do not want their names changes. They want to be able to enjoy their education without the possibility of a forced name change,” she said. Rider also questioned the origins of efforts to change the names of the mascots and the schools. “This opposing group known as Go Hanover does not represent Hanover County as a whole and is trying to make this a political media circus,” she said. Rider described efforts to prompt a change in the names as a “witch hunt,” and told board members she had a petition with more than 7,000 names opposing the changes. “In my three years of volunteering with the athletic program, I have never heard one student say I am ashamed to play for Lee-Davis High School.”
One former student did however relate his years at LeeDavis as an African American student and described his experience much differently. “I made it through, but it wasn’t easy,” Jerome Coles said. “I never could get my point across.” But other students lauded their alma mater and described a wonderful educational experience at the Mechanicsville campus. Wade Hughes is a 1969 graduate of the school, a member of the school’s athletic Hall of Fame, and loyal supporter of the school and its name. Hughes asserted that slavery was not the most important issue for Southerners during the Civil War, and said groups promoting a change in the names are pushing a “political correctness agenda.” Hughes also noted the cost of changing the names, which he researched, and said it could cost over $1 million for each school.
“My fear is that Hanover County [Public] Schools bows to these groups; the next thing that these groups will go after is Hanover County Sheriff Col. David Hines,” Hughes said. Rachel Levy is a Hanover resident with children in the county’s school system, and has served on several educationrelated committees. She spoke representing Together Hanover and its opposition to maintaining a status quo regarding the names. Levy also reiterated a request her group presented at last month’s meeting for the county to hire a consultant to devise a plan to address concerns regarding the names. After providing a brief history of how the names were selected, Levy questioned the board: “It’s 2018. What will the Hanover County School Board do now?” The problem, as identified by Together Hanover, has its roots in the initial motivations regarding the school names.
“The Confederate-named schools and mascots were established in the 1950s and 1960s as monuments to massive resistance and white supremacy; they were intended to be exclusionary and segregated. What those names and mascots symbolize and convey has not changed,” she said. Levy said the school names are in direct contrast to the county’s mission promise of an inclusive and safe learning environment. The board’s announcement that a comment gathering mechanism was now in place raised some concern. “I am really concerned about putting Dr. Gill in that position . . . and I have concerns about handling the process that way,” Levy said. In other matters, the school board begins its budget process in earnest with a presentation that was scheduled for 7 p.m. yesterday (Tuesday, Jan. 16). A public hearing will be held at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 23.

“Serving on a board such as this teaches people the value of camaraderie, statesmanship, civility and compromise, and I believe we have worked toward this, each day with each meeting,” Kelly-Wiecek said in her outgoing remarks. The outgoing chair said her goals of more transparency and increased citizen involvement moved forward during the past year. “I continue to believe we make more opportunities for engagement available,” she said. “I am deeply grateful for the citizens who have taken on that challenge.” She also acknowledged the county’s efforts in installing a new online checkbook that allows citizens to examine how the county’s money is being spent.

Lee-Davis boys stun Hawks in 62-61 win By Dave Lawrence Sports Editor MECHANICSVILLE – It has been a long time since the Lee-Davis boys basketball team had beaten their crosstown rival, Hanover. The Confederates have not won since current boys head coach Chad Bishop took the reins from his predecessor, Rob Rice. Rice’s teams had not won, either. Bishop could not remember which of their predecessors helmed the last LeeDavis victory. But Bishop need not worry about the old streak anymore. Friday night, his Confederates stunned the Hawks and Hanover’s home crowd with a 62-61 win. “I love these guys,” Bishop said. “I’m just really proud of them. I told them in the locker room, I said, ‘You had to fight.’ We’ve been preaching 32 minutes, 32 minutes, 32 minutes – and it took all 32.” Lee-Davis led much of the game, yielding the lead in the fourth quarter. But, when the momentum appeared to shift in the Hawks’ favor and with time running out, the Confederates’ Avery Fusco hit a 3-pointer to cut Hanover’s lead to one. Fusco converted a layup to put Lee-Davis ahead, and Hanover – despite several attempts – could not respond in kind as time ran out.
Bishop said the Lee-Davis defense played a big role in the win. “We had a lot of great performances,” he said. “Devin Christian guarding D.J. [Sims] – he’s a tremendous freshman. … Devin did a great job, got him in foul trouble and even scored the ball as well.” Sims led Hanover with 17 points, followed by Will Fahed with 13 and Colin Hudson with 10. While the Lee-Davis boys achieved 32 minutes of solid play, the Confederate girls struggled, turning in solid second and fourth quarters, but with only single-digit scoring in the first and third quarters in a 59-39 loss to their hosts. “We play in spurts, that’s the problem,” said Lee-Davis head girls coach Alvin Puller. “We score 10, then we go in a lull and we score zero. Then we score 14 and then we score one. We can’t consistently score or stop somebody.” The Confederates have a solid scorer in Codie Heilig, who finished with a game-high 24 points. Heilig, with three 3-pointers in the fourth quarter and four overall, brought LeeDave Lawrence/The Local Davis within a striking distance Lee-Davis’ Devin Christian (right) comes up from behind to block Hanover’s Jaylin Ross (4) in the Confederates 62-61 win Friday. of the Hawks before Hanover “We’d love to break the ice against a county rival,” Bishop that point and reminded his said. “ ‘It’s an eternity.

Defense comes up big in Atlee sweep of PH By Jonathan Howard For the Mechanicsville Local
make plays. “Coming off the snow with no practice, I think none of the kids have been able to shoot like they’re capable of, so we know right now that we have to dig down defensively,” Rawlings said. “That’s what we’re relying on right now – a little bit of pressure and taking away their number one option.” That option for Patrick Henry (3-6) is Jabryah Haverkamp. The Patrick Henry guard was held to two field goals – both in the first half – and was forced to give up the ball by the Atlee pressure defense. “We saw that very early in the game that she was going to be a problem. Her ball handling was excellent for today,” Rawlings said. “We felt like if we could get her under control, we could get the rest of the team to handle the ball.” The plan worked as the visiting Patriots were held to only one field goal in the second quarter. Atlee held a slim 8-6
MECHANICSVILLE – Beauty points were not counted on Friday night when the Atlee boys and girls basketball teams hosted county rival Patrick Henry. The scoreboard did, however, read victories for the home team in both games. The Atlee defense stood tall and shined in both contests as the girls team opened the night with a 45-21 victory, and the boys closed it with a 65-36 win. The Atlee girls (7-4) struggled to find consistency on offense, particularly in the first half of their contest. Kayla Maxson knocked down a pair of 3-pointers in the first quarter, but that represented the majority of the Raiders’ jump-shooting success. With offense at a premium, coach Michael Rawlings knew his team would have to turn to the defensive side of the ball to

lead at the end of the first quarter, but the lead swelled to 17-9 at the halftime break. The Raiders found more offensive success in the second half behind Maxson, who found ways to score going to the basket and by finding her teammates in the paint. The sophomore finished with 16 points and four steals. Kelly Ayer finished with 10 points and Aya
Youseff had eight points and 9 rebounds in the win. Patrick Henry was led by Jamie Hughes, who finished with eight points in the loss. In the boys game, a dominant defensive effort in the third quarter broke it open for the Raiders. Atlee (5-6) led 30-22 at half, but found trouble shutting down Patrick Henry’s Devyn Coles. The Patriots
guard scored 17 of his team’s first-half points to keep the visitors within striking distance. But, as the second half began, Coles no longer found success getting to the basket and getting the opportunities that kept his team close in the first. “We thought we gave him too many right-hand drives and let him get to the basket
too easy,” said Atlee head coach Rally Axselle. “I think we were going for steals on him ... so we did a better job of keeping him in front and making him score over the top.” With Coles held in check, Atlee went on a run. The Raiders scored 11 straight points in the third period, and didn’t allow see DEFENSE, pg. 28
Lee-Davis tops local teams at Kecoughtan By Dave Lawrence Sports Editor NEWPORT NEWS – LeeDavis led the pack of local teams competing in the Kecoughtan Invitational swim meet at Midtown Aquatic Center Saturday, finishing sixth out of the field of 29 public and private school from around the state. Atlee was the next highest local finisher at 11th place. No one from the Richmond area won any of the events, but there were a number of topfive finishers, with two swimmers finishing as high as second place: Atlee’s Sonora Baker in the girls 100-yard backstroke with a 58.23 finish and LeeDavis’ Sara Gaston in the girls 500 freestyle with a 5:04.85 time. More important than place finishes for area coaches, how-
ever, was seeing swimmers drop times and make cuts for postseason meets. “They all dropped,� said LeeDavis head swim coach Natalie Potter. Gaston and teammate Brendan Farrar – both dropped times in their respective 500 freestyle events. Farrar was the top local finish in the boys 500, coming in third in 4:42.72. He also was part of two more thirdplace performances: in the 200 freestyle relay (with Logan Deal, Collin Marks and Ryan Griffiths) in 1:30.44 and the 400-freestyle relay (with Marks, Deal and Griffiths) in 3:16.10. Farrar also finished fourth in Dave Lawrence/The Local the 200 freestyle in 42.84. Lee-Davis’ Sara Gaston swims to a second-place finish in the girls 500-yard freestyle at the Kecoughtan Invitational Saturday. Gaston finished third in the girls 200 freestyle in 3:16.10.

Hanover head girls coach Mike Rohr said the Hawks are progressing faster than he expected at this point in the season. “I think we’re a little ahead of where I thought we would be,� Rohr said. “I think we’re playing pretty well. We’re starting to get the hang of the defense – playing really well together on defense. We’re still a little shaky on the offensive end, but turning the corner, I think.

Jayce Catterton and Carson Miller led the Raiders with 13 points each. Eleven of Catterton’s points came in the second half. “I think it was confidence. We’ve had two good days of practice and we’ve done a lot of shooting,” Axselle said. “I think that showed itself, which was good. We were concentrating, we were focused on shooting drills and it paid off.” Coles finished with 18 points for Patrick Henry, while Jamel Jackson pitched in six.

Inspection stickers now being relocated on vehicle windshield Contributed Report news@mechlocal.com

Above, runners leave the start in the children’s portion of the 5K for the Journey, a fundraiser for the megsmiles charity. Runners did one lap of the track at Atlee High School. At right, The early lead runner makes the turn off Atlee Station Road and heads towards Cool Spring Elementary School.
RICHMOND – Effective Jan. 1, Virginia state inspection stickers will no longer be affixed to the bottom center of a vehicle’s windshield. Due to new innovations in the automotive industry, the state inspection stickers will be placed in the bottom left corner of the windshield, when viewed from inside the vehicle. This change in location also will apply to the placement of any other authorized stickers. There have been no changes made to the size or appearance of the existing vehicle inspection sticker. The relocation stems from the fact that automobile manufacturers now offer crash avoidance technology in many of their vehicles. In such vehicles, the new technology utilizes the center of the windshield. Therefore the placement of items in that area, including stickers, could prevent crash avoidance systems from operating properly. “The core mission of the Virginia Safety Inspection Program is to promote highway safety and the crash avoidance technology is another tool provided by manufacturers to ensure

vehicles operated on the roadways are safe at all times,” said Capt. R.C. Maxey Jr., Virginia State Police Safety Division Commander. “Therefore, we immediately began evaluating the situation and set forth to make the necessary changes to the Motor Vehicle Safety Inspection Manual, which governs the placement of the safety inspection sticker on all vehicles.” Existing Virginia vehicle inspection stickers are to remain in their current position – in the bottom center of the windshield. Once a vehicle is inspected and issued a 2019 sticker, the new inspection sticker must be placed in the lower left corner, which is consistent with other states across the nation.
