from the EDITOR }

June is an awesome month. But I’m biased.

Because it’s my birth month. Especially as a kid, June is the best month to have a birthday, in my opinion. It’s in the summer, so you’re out of school. The weather is perfect for riding your bike until it’s dark. And it’s exactly halfway through the year, so you get presents every six months!

I don’t mind getting older. I really don’t. I keep telling my husband, Seth, that I’m going to be a “really cool old person” when I grow up. Someone like actress Dame Judi Dench or author Louise Penny. Ladies like that just make me want to rock my golden years.

I saw a post on Facebook recently encouraging readers to not give up on their dreams just because they’re getting older. The post went on to list probably 20+ now famous people that didn’t actually become successful or famous until after their 30s, some not even until into their 70s and 80s. Morgan Freeman, for example, didn’t really become a household name until he was in his mid-60s. JK Rowling was 32-years-old when she published the first Harry Potter book. My current favorite author, Louise Penny, didn’t publish her first book until she was 55. Steven Spielberg directed his first blockbuster film in his 30s. Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister when she was 54.

In the same way, when I think about all the “famous” people in my life, the ones who have made an impact on me, spoken wisdom and encouragement at the times when I needed it, most times they have been the older, more seasoned family and friends who have the value of lived experiences and lessons learned. I treasure these dear people and value all that they’ve poured into me.

So when I think about getting older, I want to consider all the exciting things that are ahead, all the opportunities just waiting. I want to be able to turn to the youngin’ standing next to me and be able to spur them on, to help them grow and mature. And who knows, maybe this will be the year I publish my first New York Times bestseller! Or maybe I’ll have to wait a few decades.

PEDALING Affordable Housing Battlefield High School graduate Jamie Shalvey cycles cross-country for affordable housing awareness

By Elizabeth Schierbeek

F

or many, volunteering and helping to improve their communities can be easy as learning to ride a bike.

For Jamie Shalvey, a 2012 graduate of Battlefield High School (BHS) and senior at the University of Virginia (UVA), that’s only the beginning. This summer, Shalvey will ride her bicycle over 4,000 miles, almost twice the distance covered in the Tour de France cycling race (held next month), to help raise money and awareness for the affordable housing cause.

Shalvey, along with hundreds of other national and international participants, is taking part in one of ten cross-country rides run by the nonprofit Bike & Build, Inc. (B&B). B&B’s mission and vision is that, “through serviceoriented cycling trips, Bike & Build benefits affordable housing and empowers young adults for a lifetime of service and civic engagement. Bike & Build envisions future generations who are committed to a lifetime of civic engagement and who inspire individuals and communities to create fair, decent housing for all Americans.” Shalvey’s route will begin June 3 in Providence, Rhode Island (coincidentally where she was born), and will finish 4,010 miles later in Seattle, Washington on August 17 where her parents and sister, also a student at UVA, will join her for a few days of celebration and sightseeing. During the almost 11 week ride, 14 scheduled Build Days allow Shalvey and her 30 teammates to participate in local housing projects in collaboration with organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, Rebuilding Together, and YouthBuild, as well as other small community nonprofits across the nation.

They will also give presentations to the local community on the affordable housing cause. Additionally, each rider must raise at least $4,500 for their ride prior to arriving in Providence.

This may be an immense challenge to take on, but Shalvey is no stranger to hard work or service in her community. Originally from Massachusetts, Shalvey’s family moved to the Lake Manassas area in 2005. After attending Bull Run Middle School, she graduated from

BHS. “I still think about many of the classes there. The English classes in particular made me want to become an English major and to teach.” She was a member of the National Honor Society and also participated in Key Club. When asked if that was where her love of service began, she said, “The teachers at Battlefield definitely instilled the values in me, I had an awesome experience there, but it took coming to college to understand the value of service.”

Her true passion for affordable housing and community service began once she arrived at UVA in Charlottesville. During her sophomore year, Shalvey joined the co-ed service fraternity Alpha Phi Omega (APO). This group is committed to service every day of the week throughout the Charlottesville community. Even wearing an APO shirt during our interview, you can tell Shalvey is dedicated to their cause. Joining APO allowed her to engage in weekly service opportunities, including projects every Saturday morning, as well as some midweek. Working with multiple organizations over the past few years has helped her learn where she is most interested in serving. Getting off campus and into the community really opened her eyes and allowed her to see the impoverished areas and wealth disparities in the Charlottesville area. She particularly enjoyed volunteering at Sunrise, the nation’s first mobile home park to be redeveloped without resident displacement, and other Habitat for Humanity related events.

With her love of serving others and her desire to better the world, it’s no surprise she has big plans for her future. As an English major and a global studies minor, she has a passion for learning about culture and education. “I’m interested in how teachers treat their classes with students from different cultural backgrounds in them,” said Shalvey. Originally intending to apply to grad school and then become a teacher, she has decided to wait a few years until she can “get some real world experience first.”

Eventually, however, she would love to be involved in youth education and teacher training. She looks forward to someday getting involved with an after-school program and being able to help children realize the importance of education. She will of course have her hands, and legs, busy all summer, but has applied to Americorp and several other nonprofits for the fall.

Being an English major, she hopes to find work in grant writing or communications. She looks forward to being able to “play any small part in a nonprofit whose mission I care about.”

Shalvey’s work with APO, as well as fellow members who have ridden with B&B in the past, inspired her to take on the challenge herself. Every year for the last six years, an APO member has ridden with B&B, which is not surprising as UVA is the second highest contributor of B&B riders. Deciding impulsively that this was her year, Shalvey had in the span of a week convinced her reluctant parents of the legitimacy of the program and finished the application process, which included several essays about housing, the B&B mission, etc. “The application process is a competitive field,” according to Natalie Serle, the Senior Program Director for B&B. Each year there are roughly 500 people who apply for just over 300 slots.

Shalvey said the fact that the affordable housing cause is spread throughout the United States is what piqued her interest, and this seemed like a “cool, unique way to raise money” and bring awareness to the cause. She liked how with B&B, most of the money goes to the cause itself, not administration; and as far as advertising, they rely on word of mouth. She is especially excited about the grant process B&B uses. All of the money raised by the riders, minus the necessary trip and bike costs, will by the end of the summer be granted to organizations voted on by the team members from each route.

Having lived and traveled mainly on the East Coast, Shalvey is excited for the adventure of a cross-country trip. She said, “This

is a unique way to see these places. I’ll be outside on the road and able to appreciate them, stopping in random places along the way and getting a feel for these different spaces.” Along the route, the riders will stop to take in the sights and scenery, and will spend each night at a different host site, usually a church, school, or community center. Five APO friends of Shalvey are also participating in B&B rides this summer, one of whom will join her on the Providence to Seattle route.

When applying to B&B, riders pick their top three route choices. The Providence to Seattle route allows Shalvey to attend graduation because it starts only a week later. Also, being one of the northern routes, she luckily won’t be riding through the south during the heat of the summer “because Arizona in August sounds terrible.” Not having studied abroad and not being “super adventurous,” she doesn’t usually do things that are “crazy.” Shalvey said, “I’m hoping this will be an experience unlike anything I’ve ever done before. I hope to come out with more confidence going into the professional field and experience from working hands on with one particular cause.” Working in depth on one focused cause will give her “good perspective and experience” on which to base her next job. Which is exactly what the the B&B staff is hoping will happen.

According to Serle, “Bike & Build sticks with you, gives you perspective, and makes you aware. If we can create more of that, we’re doing a good job.”

The thing Shalvey is most nervous about is getting injured on the road. B&B

requires all riders to pass a safety quiz and complete 500 miles of outdoor road training, including at least one 65 mile ride, before they participate in a B&B trip.

Even so, there have been several accidents in previous years. “Even the best, safest cyclists get injured,” said Shalvey, “I’ll wear my helmet, look both ways, and be as safe as I can. I’m expecting some bruises, but hopefully nothing worse.” However, if a rider does take a tumble and get scraped up, there is a support van they can ride in until they recover. The support van carries most of the supplies the group will need for the journey so the riders only need to carry their hydration packs, snacks, and bike maintenance kits with them on the long routes each day.

A typical day on the road will have the team covering anywhere from 35 to 103 miles. Shalvey described a friend who rode last summer and explained the transformation, “You become a cycling machine! You can cycle any distance.”

Shalvey said, “The first two weeks are the hardest, but after that, it’s all good, by then you’ve developed the muscles.” When we spoke in late March, Shalvey had just received her bike. Although riders do have the option to pay more to upgrade, she got

the standard Avail women’s road bike that all female participants receive. She had only ridden mountain bikes before and was surprised how easy the road bike was to handle. And of course it doesn’t hurt that it’s “really pretty too.” A lifelong athlete having ice skated from first grade through her senior year in high school, Shalvey knows how to train for athletic events. This semester she is taking a cross training class at school. So far, the longest ride she has taken was only about 30 miles, but she has been riding her bike everywhere. “It’s been getting better; I’ve noticed it gets easier every time I go up a hill.” She thinks it has helped her to get comfortable with the road rules, to not be afraid of cars, and to maneuver in a city. Now that the weather is nicer, she plans to practice on some of the hilly roads around the Charlottesville area.

The other thing Shalvey has been working diligently on is fundraising. She has sent letters asking for donations to family and friends, and students at school have contributed money as well. She is also planning a few fundraising events with other riders from the area. One event is a bar night where people can buy a cup and get drink specials all night long. The other idea she has is to set up a trainer, a stand that holds a bike in place while pedaling, with her bike in downtown Charlottesville and put a bucket out front for collections.

As of the beginning of May, Shalvey had raised 65% of the money required for the trip. She still needs a little over $1,500 to get to her goal of $4,500. Donations are very much welcomed for this important cause. For contributions, please visit Shalvey’s B&B page, BikeandBuild.org/ rider/8696, to make your tax-deductible donation in her name. Help her reach her goal and be part of the affordable housing movement. Shalvey’s full contribution amount is due before the first day of the trip, June 3, so if you’d like to contribute, please do so as soon as possible! Please keep Shalvey and all the B&B riders in your thoughts and prayers this summer as they pedal west towards affordable housing for all. ❖

Intermediate Care Nursery Reopens at Fauquier Hospital Family Birthing Center

W

hen a child is born premature, he or she may have respiratory issues, jaundice, or present other difficulties that require special attention. Fauquier Hospital’s recently renovated Intermediate Care Nursery can provide around-the-clock care for newborns that are born after 32 weeks and are at least 3.3 pounds. Before Fauquier Health opened the ICN in 2013, these babies were transferred to a neonatal intensive care unit in Northern Virginia or at the University of Virginia.

The ICN also cares for babies born addicted to opioids. ICN RN Beverlyn Silberbauer said, “Sometimes it takes months for those babies to go through the withdrawal process. Our job is to make sure the baby is healthy and the mom has the support she needs to take care of her baby when they go home.”

Neonatologist Dr. Elsie Mainali agreed, “We see quite a number of these babies.”

Beverlyn explained that each of the tiny patient beds is equipped with a myriad of monitoring equipment: a scale, and temperature and humidity controls.

“The temperature control keeps the infant’s body temperature stable, and the humidity regulator protects the baby’s delicate skin.”

Stations are also equipped with phototherapy lamps and special blankets that cover the small, pod-like beds so that the babies can rest in complete darkness – “just as if they are still in utero.” There are “portholes” in the sides of the beds, so parents can reach in and interact with their babies easily. Silberbauer said, “Even with

{ JUNE 2016 |

the portholes open, the air inside the bed doesn’t leave and the air from the outside doesn’t get in, so the temperature stays consistent. It’s amazing technology.”

In addition to enlarging the space from four to seven beds, Dr. Mainali said that other highly specialized equipment for atrisk babies has been added. The security system has been updated and new isolates and radiant warmers have been installed, as have wireless scanners for medication, mobile computers, and respiratory equipment. “We are truly state-of-theart,” she said.

The ICN will be staffed with two neonatal intensive care unit registered nurses 24 hours a day. Respiratory services, lactation experts, case management workers, an RN clinical coordinator and another physician will support the effort.

Dr. Mainali added, “All nurses have Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) certification. Most come from higherlevel care nurseries and have years of experience.”

Fauquier Health’s ICN also has a collaborative relationship with neonatologists at the University of Virginia’s Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery, to ensure local babies have the resources of a university-level facility. Dr. Mainali explained, “We currently have telemedicine capabilities. Experts at UVA are able to receive data about a newborn in our nursery, examine the baby remotely, and work with our staff via video feed.”

The nursery features open visiting hours, and mothers are encouraged to breastfeed their babies if they choose.

}

Neonatologist Two private rooms Dr. Elsie Mainali can accommodate looks after a newborns who need newborn in the readmission after being Intermediate home. When babies are Care Nursery ready to be discharged, in Fauquier Hospital’s Family parents are invited Birthing Center. to stay overnight in a private room and work with nursing services to understand how to care for their newborns.

Dr. Mainali said that Fauquier Health Home Care Services is available to visit mom and baby at home to assist with any lingering issues. “We want to ensure that there is a smooth transition.” CPR training for parents is available prior to discharge and outpatient lactation services have recently been added.

Community pediatricians are invited to visit with their patients in the ICN. All newborns that are admitted to the ICN are under the care of Dr. Mainali, who said, “We view it as a collaborative effort and understand that the community pediatricians are guiding care after discharge. Having their engagement and ensuring we are communicating effectively is a priority.” ❖

GREENVILLE Home of the Lathams for 188 years FAMILY FARM ‘IN THE HEART OF HISTORY’ HAS WITNESSED MANY CHANGES

Greenville, located on Shelter Lane off U.S. 15 north of Haymarket, was built in 1828 by Thomas Latham (1798-1875), and has been owned by Latham descendants ever since.

The Greenville property was included in the 1,115-acre tract known as The Shelter, which was originally part of the Burwell portion of the huge Bull Run Tract. It was owned by Samuel Beale until 1787, when it was acquired by George Cockburn.

Subsequent owners of The Shelter were Rose Bronaugh, the niece of Cockburn’s wife, and her husband John Bronaugh II. From there, the property passed to their daughter Emily, who married William Bailey Tyler.

The Latham family’s involvement with the Greenville property began with Thomas Latham’s father, Robert Latham (1769-1833), an Old School Baptist preacher. He was the

By 1953, work on the main house was complete.

The family is shown at a gathering at Greenville following the funeral of a Latham relative.

first pastor of Little River Baptist Church in Loudoun County, and the second pastor of Long Branch Baptist Church at Halfway, serving from 1810-1827. In 1793, he married Patience Cundiff (1768-1820).

For years, Robert Latham leased part of The Shelter land for farming. Son Thomas took over his father’s lease on Nov. 19, 1827, effective January 1829. Thomas could only graze seven head of cattle on the property, and was only allowed enough horses to do the farm work.

In addition to paying $100 a month in rent, terms of the 15-year lease included building the house at Greenville, a two-story stone structure measuring 21 feet by 19 feet with a six-foot basement. For his part, William B. Tyler agreed to pay Thomas $40 when the house was raised and covered, and an additional $30 if the house was finished within a year.

Other terms of the lease included the planting of four bushels of clover and spreading two tons of plaster fertilizer on the farmland each year. If the fields didn’t need the clover seeded, Thomas was required to spread an additional ton of plaster.

Apparently Thomas Latham was a successful farmer, for on Nov. 3, 1837, he purchased 280 acres and the house at Greenville from William B. Tyler for $2,800. A two-story addition to the house was built in 1841 by John Hitaffer, of Fauquier County. Cost of the addition, which also had a basement, was $286.

In 1834, Thomas married Leah Hutchison

(1799-1850), of nearby Prospect Hill. They had two daughters, Anne Olivia (1837-1923) and Louisa Roberta (1841-1842). Leah died in 1850, and Thomas married Sarah M. Hixon (1825-1891) in 1852. Their first child was Robert Carroll (1854-1909), followed three years later by twins, John Wilbur (1857-1925) and Lucy Martin (1857-1858).

Thomas later divided the farm, giving Anne Olivia and her husband John Pendleton Gaines (1841-1913) the property they called Greenwood, and sons Robert Carroll and John Wilbur were given Greenville. John Wilbur married Mary Hart (1861-1930), and they lived in the house at Greenville until 1902, when Robert Carroll bought his brother out.

In October 1908, Greenville passed to Robert Carroll’s two oldest children: Thomas Otis, who had been farming his father’s property since 1902, and Mary Elma Latham (1878-1973), an employee of the Social Security Administration who lived in Fayetteville, N.C. for many years.

Also in 1908, Thomas Otis married Margaret Rita Hamilton (18851948), and they had three children: T. O. Hamilton (1912-1973), Mary Marguerite (1917-2002) and Carroll Hanger (1925-2011).

Carroll served in the U.S. Army during World War II, seeing action in the European Theater. He completed his first overseas tour, and was sent to Fort Sam Huston in Texas to train for the impending invasion of Japan, which fortunately never took place.

He returned home, and in 1946 and married Otolene Reims Fogg (1922-1969). He worked briefly at his father-in-law’s restaurant in Washington, D.C., before training as a machinist at Engineering Research Inc. in Maryland. At the time, Carroll and Otolene were living in Maryland, where their daughter, Margaret Otolene, was born in 1950.

Carroll H. Latham was the fourth generation of his family to live at Greenville.

This photo, taken about 1949 when he was living in Maryland, shows Carroll with his trick horse, ‘Dusty.’

In 1951, Thomas Otis asked Carroll to return to Greenville and take over the farm. Carroll had just been told that he was being promoted to a foreman’s position at Engineering Research, but agreed to come home. By April 1952, he was back at Greenville.

Hamilton farmed nearby Snow Hill, while Carroll and Thomas Otis farmed Greenville. Thomas Otis died in 1957, and the following year, Carroll built a one-story, 16 foot by 32 foot addition on the rear of the main house at Greenville.

It had a stone veneer 10 inches thick, made of stones gathered from around the property.

With his father gone and Hamilton disabled, Carroll tried to run both Greenville and Snow Hill. Losing money on both farms, he gave up the operation at Snow Hill. By the early 1960s, it had become increasingly difficult to make a profit in the cattle business, so Carroll had to look for other ways to make money with the farm.

property at Greenville that would be ideal for parking camping trailers. “At least it was wooded,” recalled Carroll in 1978. “All of the places where I had camped with the square dancers were out in the broiling sun, and I had enough of that in the hayfield.”

In the fall of 1966, Carroll went before the Prince William County Board of Supervisors requesting a permit to open a campground at Greenville, which was granted. “Taking all of the money I could borrow and doing most of the work myself, we had a bathhouse on June 24, 1967,” he recalled. Greenville Farm Family Campground, located “In the Heart of History” became a reality.

“The Lake Fairfax campground had been cut back on campsites because of health reasons, and they started sending me campers that day. By 10 p.m., we had 42 units in the field, as we had no sites cut out in the woods.”

The first season the campground was open, the business made $8,000,

A NEW VENTURE After camping with a square dancing group, Carroll realized that there was a 46-acre section in the back part of the

with a base rate of $3 per camper per night. The second year, the income doubled, and the third year, it doubled again.

Aside from what the family needed to live on, the money was invested in improvements on the campground, including the water and electrical hook-ups and more campsites.

During the early years of the campground, a cooperative relationship between the Lathams and their guests was built. One time, when Carroll couldn’t finish mowing the field next to the campground before dark, the campers drove their motor homes and vehicles in a circle around the field, providing light so he could finish.

Otolene Latham died in 1969. The following year, Carroll married Mary Ann Leavel (b. 1945), and they had three children, Thomas Carroll (b.

1974), Robert Lynn (b. 1976) and Leah Ann (b. 1978).

In 1974, Carroll started work on a new stone house on the southwest corner of the Greenville property, and moved in on April 7, 1975. His daughter, Margaret Otolene Latham, married since 1971 to Tim L. Everett (b. 1948), moved into the old stone house. The Everetts

later built a new house on Greenville, where they live today.

A family farm as well as a family campground, Mary Ann and her three children share the duties of running the camping business and growing corn, wheat and barley, and cutting alfalfa, timothy and orchardgrass hay.

They also raise a sizeable herd of cattle.

In the family history he compiled, Carroll notes that his life reflected that of his great-grandfather Thomas, who was widowed and started a “second family” later in life. In reference to his daughter Margaret Otolene and son-in-law Tim Everett, “They have a son (Timothy L., b. 1974) who is four months older than my oldest son, and a daughter (Sarah J., b. 1976) who is four months younger than my youngest son.”

The current resident of the old stone house is daughter Leah; Mary Ann Latham lives in the house she and Carroll built, while sons Robert Lynn and Thomas also have modern homes on Greenville.

A sixth generation of the family now lives at Greenville: Leah’s son, Vincent O’Neal Glascoe (b. 1999); Thomas Carroll’s children, Hanger Michael (b. 2002) and Willow Grace (b. 2005); and Robert Lynn’s children, Robert Bailey (b.

2000), Kathryn Hannah (b. 2003) and Gracie Lynn (b. 2005).

Margaret O. Everett’s daughter, Kristen R. (b. 1986) also lives at Greenville.

While Greenville will continue as a working farm and rural campground, residential development is coming in next door on the old Greenwood property.

After several years as a dairy farm run by “Aunt Jeannie” Brawner and two other women, the property passed out of the Latham family in the 1940s. The 191-acre tract was recently acquired by Stanley Martin Homes, and 18 homesites are planned for the property. ❖

Writing Tips for Job Applicants

nd

In the middle paragraphs, tell why you are a good fit for this position. But go even further. Use specific phrases and keywords from the job description whenever possible. This can help you more easily get through the initial screening process, which is often now done by computers. Clearly make connections between the job description and your abilities, but avoid cutting and pasting from your resume.

3

rd

If you have attached your resume, say so in the conclusion paragraph. Thank the contact for consideration and politely end with a restatement of interest and a complete signature, such as the one used in the email.

might look okay, but the general rule is, if it’s not customized, it’s not useful. As for spelling, grammar, and format, nothing will turn off a hiring manager faster than seeing errors that, with a little more effort on your part, could have been avoided. Here are some tips to help you write your resume.

1

Find a resume template that is industry and job specific.

There are thousands of examples available on the Internet, many of which are downloadable. Make sure the template you choose allows you to put your most impressive accomplishments/skills up top.

2 3 4

Use a basic, easy-to-read font, such as Times New Roman. Avoid fonts with words like “script,” “comic,” “balloon” and “funky.”

Put all contact information in your header, including links to your LinkedIn profile.

If you are new to an industry, changing industries or just starting out, include an objective. Make sure to tailor the objective to the position you are applying for. “To obtain a position in your company” or “in X industry” is never an acceptable objective.

5 6

Use bullet points to facilitate easy reading and to make accomplishments and skills stand out. Use narrative only when specifically directed.

Include keywords in your resume. Take the keywords directly from the job description of the position you’re applying for, just like you would in the cover letter. Do not use the same resume to apply for different positions.

7

Never use jargon or slang. Avoid acronyms that are not commonly known, or, if need be, write the full meaning first, put the acronym in parenthesis, and from that point on, use the acronym.

8

Unless you have been in the same company for decades and are still with that company at the time you are applying for a new job, only go back a maximum of ten years.

Ideally, your resume should be no longer than two pages.

9

PROOFREAD, and get someone else to review your resume, too. ❖

A HISTORIC HAYMARKET HOME GETS A FRESH RENOVATION

Written by Karin Finkler Photographs by Chris Primi

D

riving past the McCormack House in Haymarket, an observer could never know the long history of tragedy and love the home has endured and received in its lifetime. The McCormack House is one of only three homes that survived the fire of November 4, 1862, set by a Union patrol trying to uncover an alleged sniper (13 of the 17 buildings in the town were razed). After that, the house had the good fortune to have a succession of owners that have loved and cared for it—including its most recent owners, the Cavazos family, who are giving the historic

property a much needed renovation.

Possibly the oldest home in Haymarket, the original log cabin McCormack House was built around 1800 by John Barnett and included a kitchen, porch and bedroom. The influence of Barnett’s shoemaking profession lived on in the home as a later owner, Thomas McCormack, also a shoemaker, owned and lived in the home into the 1870s. Subsequent owners included architect Walter Macomber, who enlarged the home and added plumbing, electricity, a dining room, bathroom, utility room and an extra bedroom. Then in 1963,

Left: The McCormack House in the springtime.

Below: This custom made bed also serves as storage for the master bedroom.

Elizabeth Cobb, a schoolteacher, bought the home and did her own renovations.

In a Washington Post story from 1996, Cobb shared that she was initially a bit concerned about living alone in the house, but then “it was as if the house wrapped me up with love and caring, and I wasn’t afraid anymore.” In 2015, Cobb sold the home to its current owners, the Cavazos family.

The Cavazoses first fell in love with Haymarket in 2015 during a stopover for lunch after their daughter’s riding lesson.

It was over turkey and brie sandwiches at AKT Nourish and the friendly conversation with Annie, the proprietor, that the couple decided that the warmth and overall feel of the town earned it a prominent place on their list of areas to examine closely as they looked for a new place to call home.

The beautiful old homes, fun shops and restaurants, mountain vistas, and kindness they felt from the people in the area called to Cavazoses, particularly as both of their fathers served in the Navy, resulting in both of their families living in a number of different cities during their lives. Settling down and raising their daughter in a close knit community was appealing.

That ethos of kindness was quite

is something magical about preserving a piece of history,” Mrs. Cavazos said. “Knowing that families treasured the home before us gives me more motivation to carry on their story. We are only here on earth for a short time, and I think it is so important to keep a part of the past for the future to enjoy.”

During the renovations and upgrades to the McCormack House, Mrs. Cavazos and her husband – with extensive and deeply appreciated help from her parents! – enjoyed bringing their love of both traditional and French style to the home. Mrs. Cavazos studied art and architecture for a semester as well as traveled in Northern France. She was lucky to find another francophile in her fiancé who also enjoyed French culture and décor as the couple visited France together and even celebrated their wedding in Paris.

Inspired by the beauty and décor of the Marie Antoinette Room in the Hotel de Crillon (Mrs. Cavazos’s favorite room in the entire world), where the couple held their wedding reception, Mrs. Cavazos sought to infuse elements such as chandeliers and tapestries into the design of the newly renovated home. That same warmth and magic she felt in Paris, particularly in the Marie

30

{ JUNE 2016 |

}

Antoinette Room, enveloped her when she first explored the McCormack House. The abundant natural light, the beautiful view from the kitchen windows, and the cozy, welcoming feeling in the house drew her in.

Mrs. Cavazos and her husband realized that the small size of the house, which had originally put her off a bit when viewing photos online, belied the expansive warmth waiting for them.

The family moved quickly to make an offer to purchase the property, which was fortuitous as two other offers came in immediately after theirs. The family was grateful their offer was accepted and they could begin making this place their own.

As with any renovation, flexibility was key both on timing of the work as well as in bringing their vision to life. The renovation team (the Cavazoses and Mrs. Cavazos’ parents did all the work with the exception of the sanding of the wood floors) dove in with gusto.

The renovations touched every room in the house. The bathroom and kitchen were thoroughly updated with new flooring, tiling, and chandelier lighting. Additions to the bathroom included an antique dresser turned into a vanity and sink, and a claw foot tub and shower. The

Mrs. Cavazos’ simple decorating allows the historic charm of the hosue to shine.

The bedroom received a custombuilt bed with drawers underneath to add more storage to the home. Brick flooring and lighting were also added to the laundry room. Outside, the Cavazoses added a paddock fence, mailbox, driveway gate, and lamp posts to enhance the property. The vision Mrs. Cavazos had when she first looked at the house, of standing at the kitchen sink and looking out the large window while sipping her morning coffee, started to come to life.

Mrs. Cavazos and her husband were

fortunate to have her parents, who have been doing home projects for years, to help them finish the renovations in order to stay on budget. Hiring tradesmen would have extended and expanded both the time and financial costs of the renovations. For Mrs. Cavazos, her desire to have family and friends feel like they’re visiting a relaxing bed and breakfast or country home has been achieved.

The Cavazos family has decided, in order to honor the history of the property, to preserve the McCormack House’s

The family is now enjoying their historic, renovated home. They have a few more projects on their list for future upgrades to the exterior. But right now, they’re enjoying their cozy home that fits right into the welcoming, warm community of Haymarket. ❖

COMMUNITY

IT’S OWN REWARD

Novant Health UVA Health System’s volunteers provide compassion while also forming friendships

By Christine Craddock

I

f you ask the men and women who volunteer as part of Novant Health UVA Health System’s Auxiliary why they do it, most will tell you they want to spend their free time giving to others. The mission of this volunteer program is to improve the health of the community, one person at a time. And these amazing people fulfill that mission on a daily basis. However, it seems as though an unexpected and wonderful perk to the job is the new family they create with friendships in a group of people who are going through the same stage of life together.

Years ago, Walt Kowal remembers being amazed by the hospice workers and volunteers who helped his mother-in-law through a difficult time. After a career as a Navy Officer and Department of Justice employee, Kowal wanted to contribute to others when he retired and had the time to give. The experience of his family member being taken care of, etched in his mind, inspired him to pursue the volunteer opportunity when Haymarket Medical Center opened. When he’s not enjoying life with his two grandchildren, Kowal can be seen helping visitors in the gift shop.

His eyes light up when asked his favorite part about this position - seeing the siblings come in to choose a gift for their new baby brother or sister born at the hospital. He also loves seeing the new babies go home for the first time and the excitement of new grandparents. Although these visitors are there for positive reasons, there are others who come during a more arduous times in their lives. Kowal describes how he has helped, saying “you never know what is going on in their minds; my job is to speak positively to them and make them more comfortable.” He takes this role seriously, knowing that his positive attitude can change someone’s experience of the hospital atmosphere, even in a small way.

By Kowal’s side as a friendly face for visitors to encounter is Carol Whitney. The banter between the two reveals the friendship formed throughout the years of working together. Whitney explains that while

fi Ronda Bunch has been a volunteer for 3 years, helping customers in the gift shop at Novant Health UVA Health System Haymarket Medical Center.

Left: Gift shop volunteers Walt Kowal and Carol Whitney love seeing toddlers picking out gifts for their new siblings. Below: Bruce Clough, Jack Samarias, and Jim Flynn entertain visitors with friendly conversation while directing them to where they need to go.

most people are in the gift shop for a happy reason, others you just don’t know the situation. “It’s nice to cheer them up,” she says. For the last three years, Ronda Bunch has also spent her time in the shop as a volunteer. Bunch started volunteering to give back to the community, but she truly enjoys meeting new people and families, saying most people just need “someone to talk to.” She says the job is genuinely fun with a huge social aspect to it since most of the volunteers are retired and some have lost their spouses. The position allows them to get out of the house while making a positive impact at the same time.

Greeting visitors some mornings at the main entrance to the hospital may be the trio of Jack Samarias, Jim Flynn, and Bruce Clough, entertaining to themselves and occasionally to others. Samarias and Clough have been volunteers for eight years and Flynn for two. While he began volunteering because he felt “it was time to give something,” Flynn points out that this experience has taught him many things, in particular a newfound understanding and appreciation for the medical community. “There is a reward,” he says and Clough resounds with an “Amen!” While he enjoys working as part of a team in the medical community, Clough has used this experience to become even more involved by being a member of the Board and the Vice President of the Auxiliary. The hospital is not the only place this group can be seen together, though. They often dine together along with their spouses, as their friendships expand far beyond the hospital walls. Carol Plummer and Curt Cool also work at the front desk and have built a great relationship through their volunteer work. Cool has volunteered for two years, since he lost his spouse and was seeking people to talk to and meeting new friends. Plummer has volunteered for six years to help her community, but also finds peace in comforting patients and their families.

At Haymarket Medical Center, these uplifting spirits are the first faces to greet visitors at the front entrance to the hospital,

direct patients to where they need to go, deliver flowers, and also assist in the emergency department. These are the opportunities that exist in Haymarket but there are additional volunteer opportunities at Novant Health UVA Health System, including jobs at the Cancer Center, Prince William Medical Center, Heathcote Health Center, the Aubergine Thrift Shop and Caton Merchant House in Manassas. Lita Bartels, manager of Volunteer Services, says she has “the best job in the hospital because she gets to work with these truly selfless people.” The most important requirement to be able to work as a volunteer is compassion.

Many of these people have retired from high-powered, successful careers and are seeking outlets for their time and passion for helping others. Bartels explains that these men and women share a “gold thread of helping others” and are brought together by this commonality.

The Auxiliary program has been in existence since 1961, first consisting of teenage girls known as Candy Stripers, then adding teenage boys in the 70s, and men in the 1980s. Another important role of the Auxiliary is to raise funds which are then used to improve and expand hospital services for patients. The profits from the Gift Shop, the Aubergine Thrift Shop, and other fundraising projects have contributed to important medical advances, such as the Mammography Coach. The program is a wonderful opportunity for those looking to make a difference in the lives of their neighbors. As Bartels says, “it’s a great way to add purpose to your life.” Anyone interested in learning more about the program should call 703-369-8173 or visit novanthealth.org. ❖

eet Ronnie Glaser. A retired Haymarket resident who spent most of his career in human resources, Glaser is now more passionately exploring his creative writing hobby and getting published! Just this spring, Glaser selfpublished his first book, The Adventures Of Adam And The Incredibly Mysterious Zorkins, a story about a ten-yearold boy who loves going on adventures, but lately has found them turning into disasters. Luckily, Adam finds his way out of all his scrapes only to discover that he’s actually being guided by some mysterious helpers, the Zorkins!

In this interview, Glaser tells of his experience with self-publishing and provides tips and advice for anyone else looking to do the same.

Q. Hi Ronnie, tell us about your book!

A. “It’s called The Adventures Of Adam And The Incredibly Mysterious Zorkins. It’s a short chapter book geared toward seven to twelve-year-olds. The Zorkins are tiny creatures that help Adam, the 10-year-old protagonist, escape a series of misadventures and deal with a classmate who is a bully.”

Q. How long did it take you to write your book?

So you want to self-publish?

A. “That’s a tough question. The actual writing took maybe two months, but that was over a twenty-year period! Really. The idea came to me years ago, but it took a long time to put it all together. When I did, I then had to polish, edit, and so forth.”

Q. Once you finished the book, what was your next step?

A. “The first thing I did was file for a copyright with the U.S. Copyright Office. It is a simple process. You do everything online; send them a copy of your work and pay a small fee, and that prevents someone else from using your work. Then I started looking for a publisher.”

Q. Why did you decide to self-publish your book?

A. “I pretty much knew all along that I would be selfpublishing my book. I think it is incredibly difficult for a first-time author to get an agent to represent you with mainstream publishers. And because my book is a short children’s book aimed at a niche market, I thought the odds would really be stacked against me.

So I knew I would publish it myself.”

Q. What is actually involved in self-publishing?

A. “There are a number of things you need to decide. Finding a company to do the publishing, whether in print or digital format (an eBook), is actually very easy. There are hundreds of companies willing to publish your book. Most people know about Amazon. Its publishing divisions are Createspace, for paper books, and Kindle Direct Publishing, for eBooks. I used both. But there are many others, like iUniverse, Lulu, AuthorHouse, and Archway Publishing. Another early decision you need to make is whether you want to buy your own ISBN number or get one from the publisher.”

Q. What is an ISBN number?

A. “ISBN stands for International Standard Book Number and it’s how booksellers, distributors, libraries, etc. identify a book.

You can buy an ISBN number yourself or have the publisher you choose assign one for you. There are pros and cons for each and I decided to let Amazon assign one to me.”

Q. Okay, so you decide on a publisher and ISBN number, then what?

A. “Most publishers work the same way. You send them your book electronically, which at that point is really only the manuscript you have written, and they take it from there in terms of getting it ready for print or digital publication and distribution. If you have a cover design (I decided to pay an independent designer to create a book cover), you send that too. Or you can pay to have the publisher design a cover for you.”

Q. Once you finished the book, what was your next step?

A. “The first thing I did was file for a copyright with the U.S. Copyright Office. It is a simple process. You do everything online; send them a copy of your work and pay a small fee, and that prevents someone else from using your work. Then I started looking for a publisher.”

Q. Is working with a publisher expensive?

A. “It depends. In many cases, it costs nothing to send your manuscript to a publisher. There are costs involved if you want the publisher to edit your manuscript, do some fancy formatting or other services, but the publisher will basically format what you send them and then make the book available for sale on their site and other sites they have distribution agreements with. If you go to Amazon.com and type in “Zorkins,” there’s my book. It’s also on Barnesandnoble.com.”

Q. But it doesn’t cost you to have your book printed?

A. “No. This is one great thing about self-publishing. Once your book is published and offered as a paperback or hardback, it is printed only when someone buys it. So if someone clicks to buy Zorkins, Amazon’s Createspace just prints and ships that buyer one copy. Amazon receives part of the sales prices to cover its printing costs and I get a royalty fee. If someone clicks on the digital version, there is no cost for Amazon, but they still get part of the purchase price. It’s a good deal for them!”

Q. Would you say it’s relatively easy to self-publish?

A. “Yes, but you want to make sure that your book is not just

well written, but well-edited. As I said, whatever you send to the publisher is what will be formatted and listed, unless you specifically pay the publisher for editing services. I suggest you do the editing before you send your book to a publisher. You can get family or friends to edit your book for free, or you can pay someone to edit it. In my case, I chose to pay for editing.

You can search for freelance editors online. I searched for editors through Craigslist, corresponded with a few, and then chose one as my editor. Some editors will agree to edit a few pages for free to see if you like their work.

Q. Once your book is published and out there on the web, what happens?

A. “Ah, the $64,000 question! The truth is that very little happens without marketing. There are millions of books out there and more get added everyday. By one account, over a million new books are published every year in the U.S. alone. The advent of self-publishing in the digital age makes everyone a potential author. So your book will sit there with all those millions, largely unread, unless you aggressively market it or pay the publisher to market it. Even then, there is no guarantee that your book will ever be read.”

Q. How do you go about marketing your book?

A. “Most of the publishing companies offer marketing “kits” that include things like business cards, posters, and distributing free copies of your book, services that can run from many hundreds of dollars into the thousands. I am skeptical whether these services have any real affect on the number of books you sell. Just about everything you read online suggests that a self-published author has to do his or her own marketing, using all types of social media (Facebook, Pinterest, Tumblr, etc.), distributing free copies of their books, and making contact with local groups that might be interested in their books.”

Q. Any last thoughts on self-publishing?

A. “It is exciting and fun seeing your book in print. But it’s even better if people buy it, not so much because you expect to make money from it, but so that you have the satisfaction of having others enjoy your work. So my advice to any author who is writing, or even contemplating writing a book, is to spend a fair amount of time planning how to market it once it is published.” ❖

AN ANCIENT and a new practice TREND Why yoga spans the centuries • by Liba Spyros

Photo by Jewel Peach Photography.

W

alking through town the other evening, I gazed into a new exercise facility still under construction. I was reading about what they were going to offer that made their place unique. I am a fan of bodies in motion, so if their theory of exercise motivates people to move and condition, then bravo. This spurred a personal reflection of my own evolution of movement and fitness. Now that I have a few years under my belt, I can think back to trends and fitness crazes that have come and gone. Remember, “feel the burn”? I mean, God bless Jane Fonda, but my “feel the burn” days are behind me. I prefer to listen to the sensations my body is sending me and adjust according. I remember Callanetics, truly aging myself with that memory. It was a precursor to barre classes. As a ballet student, I have certainly spent years at the barre. But,

40

{ JUNE 2016 |

HAYMARKET LIFESTYLE

when I took a barre class, I realized it was different than a ballet barre class. I definitely worked hard, but a very different experience. When I was a dancer, pilates was the warm-up before dance six days a week. My 8–hour schedule was definitely a grueling one, but I learned how to care for the physical body. My post-dance journey ran the gamut of experiences: aerobics, step classes, weight lifting, running, Callanetics, barre, and then yoga. My first yoga class was extremely challenging and yet I am sure I heard the “Hallelujah” chorus. Nothing had forced me to use the mind-body connection like that before.

I had also never sweat that much before.

I was hooked. It took me a few months to realize that although I had showed up to my first class for the physicality of the practice, I stayed for many other reasons.

What made this practice so different?

}

There are always new exercise trends to grab our attention. Many are wonderful, and science has greatly influenced exercise trends and methods. I am sure someday, there will be a system invented that will condition the whole body in five minutes!

Some of these new methods of exercise last and some come on the scene with gusto only to fizzle out when another idea comes along. So why has yoga lasted since the ancient world? Simply, yoga addresses the mind, body, and heart. Yoga pre-dates the written word. Meditation and pranayama (breathing exercises) came long before the physical postures (asana). In fact, the asana practice was to tire the body so the practitioner could settle their body and mind for meditation. Most of us come to yoga for the physical practice first, and then delve into breath and meditation practices for those life-changing benefits.

e a p t b n p o o A s k m

p s s a o i G t c B p c i

P

Yoga has a history in the Ancient World with archaeological evidence found in stone seals, which depict figures of yoga poses, around 3000 B.C. Since it predated the written word, the yogic principles were passed from teacher to teacher. The richness of that tutelage has kept yoga alive for many millennia. There have been many disciplines of yoga created to meet the interests and needs of cultures and societies. However, the basics of breath, postures, meditation and principles remain untouched. The style of yoga a person chooses can be based upon their physical needs or desires. You can find classes for Restorative yoga, Yin yoga, Ashtanga, Vinyasa, and many more. The discipline you choose should be taught by an instructor that is in constant pursuit of knowledge. They should always be in some form of training or mentorship.

We have probably all heard how meditation can alter our blood pressure, heart rate, and stress levels, but recent studies have shown the mental benefits can be measured. Harvard studies have shown that the changes to the amygdala and hippocampus can actually be calculated, giving scientific proof to the health benefits of the mental practices of yoga. Breath is our life force. When it is ineffective, we can become ill. Dr. Greg Nash, a chiropractor at Gainesville Holistic Health Center, explains the profound effect of the breath on our brain: “The brain and spinal cord make up our central nervous system (CNS) and are our primary control center.

Breathing is important for all the obvious reasons, but it also has profound impacts on the CNS. The CNS has it’s own specialized circulatory system that consists of cerebral-spinal fluid (CSF) that is made by filtering blood. This filtering process creates a rhythmic

flow of CSF that bathes the brain and spinal cord. Breathing plays a very important role in this flow. The act of contracting the diaphragm, the primary respiratory muscle, helps to drive the flow of cerebral fluid throughout the CNS. Thus, taking control and consciously controlling breathing can help encourage the flow of CSF throughout the CNS, and have profound effects on the body as a whole.”

When a person comes to a yoga class, the instructor will encourage the student to use ujjayi breath. This deep, diaphragmatic breath is intended to be linked with the movement of the poses. This union calms the body because of the important connection with the CNS, gives the mind a focal point, and aids the practitioner to develop the skill of listening to the body’s communication. There are moments in a led class when as a practitioner you can get lost in the flow of your breath and postures; staying completely in the present moment and losing the idea of time. When this happens, you feel the magic.

Presence and calm become the first gifts that sneak into your life. Before you know it, you will start to take deep, diaphragmatic breaths when you are in traffic or waiting in a line. Your body just responds without a conscious thought because you have trained yourself to respond to stress this way. You will start to notice becoming very present in your conversations. These skills of calming and focusing bring quality of life.

Some practices use heat and others do not. Dr. Nash says this about the heat: “Temperature is very important in all mammals.

Being warm-blooded means that the body has a specific range of temperatures that allow the proteins of that organism to work. Our bodies work very hard to maintain a stable temperature. Thus, exposing the body to varied temperatures causes it to react. In cases of elevated temperature, we begin to sweat and when that liquid evaporates off our skin, our temperature reduces. While exercising, the skin acts as a method of excreting unwanted substances and helps to purge the body on a large scale due to the large surface area. Therefore, exercising in warmer temperatures causes the body to sweat more easily, and triggers this excretory affect intentionally.” Whether you choose a heated practice or a non-heated practice, be mindful that you are not in a draft.

Exercise of any kind should never be done in direct contact with fans or air conditioners. It is simply unhealthy for your muscles. If your gym uses lower temperatures, wear warmer clothing. Sweat is good. Sweating is healthy.

Some people have a strong reaction to yoga after their first class. For others, it takes time for the practitioner to feel the changes happening. On the most basic level, yoga allows you to do what you love to do, longer. The pure physical practice of yoga improves your health, flexibility, stabilizing muscles, and overall tone. Emotionally, it will give you tools for dealing with stress and stressful situations. Yoga will bring balance to your life and relationships. For thousands of years yoga has met the needs of human beings. It is not a fad and is going to be around long after this yogini is gone. May you be safe, may you be healthy, may you find freedom, know peace, and walk this world with ease.

COMMUNITY When and why did you decide to start this company?

Q &

After entertaining children for decades (as Bingo the Clown), I wanted to also do something for adults to reduce their stress. I did my first presentation in 2011, but only made the company DBA in 2014 and added the website in 2015.

How does your business serve the Haymarket-Gainesville community?

My business serves to inspire all ages to appreciate the health benefits of laughter. My first speaking engagement was for my Heritage Hunt Women’s Club - about 200 women. I received great feedback so I decided to make a PowerPoint presentation and continue to do more. I enjoyed being a keynote speaker for an HGBA meeting and also did a gratis presentation for the wedding planner group of an HGBA member. In the surrounding areas I’ve done presentations at: a Baltimore Top Security Women’s Prison, a Unitarian Universalist Church of Fairfax retreat, a Unity of Fairfax Congregation, and the Hebrew Home in Rockville.

with

Carol M. Collins of Live Life with Laughter

Please share one of the greatest moments you’ve experienced in your business.

I gave a presentation at my Unitarian church’s Science, Reason, and Religion forum. This is usually a very serious, intellectual group. I presented on April Fool’s Day to try and “loosen up the group.” One gentleman, who has always been very serious, really responded with a big smile and laughter. After these sessions, participants usually left

right away, but this time they stayed and interacted with each other!

Have you had an experience with your business that you wish you could redo differently?

I once did a Rotary Club presentation that had a much shorter time frame from what I was used to and I should have made more appropriate acts to fit the audience.

What are the top three business tips and tricks can you offer other professionals?

1. Go with your dream 2. Join organizations related to your goals. I joined the Association of Applied Therapeutic Humor.

3. Get professional help in setting up a website and promotional materials.

Guy Hinkler of Insperity, a friend and professional, helped me a great deal in enhancing my PowerPoint presentation.

How have you been involved with HGBA?

I have been a member of HGBA since September 2007. I have been a keynote speaker and I try to bring some levity to meetings by bringing balloon pieces.

For you, what is the primary benefit of being an HGBA member?

Networking with local businesses and building friendships.

If you could be famous for something, what would you want to be known for?

Helping others to laugh more and relieve stress, to listen more carefully to others, and to promote a peaceful world.❖
