Patrick Szabo transforms from writer to NASCAR Whelen All-American driver. by Stacy A. Shaw

Before Patrick Szabo was a writer for Haymarket Beat, he had another link to the Haymarket area. As a NASCAR Whelen AllAmerican Series driver, he drove B&B Racing’s number 17 Chevrolet Impala SS that is often sponsored by Foster’s Grill and housed on Sam Beaty’s Haymarket property.

When most people think of NASCAR they usually think of the nationally televised Sprint Cup Series, but NASCAR hosts other series as well. The All-American Series is one of those Official NASCAR race series. Although it is not usually televised, it does promote fast-paced, family friendly entertainment with drivers from Virginia and North Carolina, and it is often held close to home in South Boston, Virginia. According to Szabo, who lives in Ashburn, Virginia, the series provides a place for new racers to get their start in NASCAR racing, and for older drivers to continue racing. Moreover, it often receives media attention via the radio. “We have drivers who progress up

from this series but get their start here. It’s a pretty good mix of those who have the money to do this as a hobby and those who want to progress like I do,” Szabo said. At 25-years-of-age, Szabo is one of the youngest drivers with the All-American Series. Szabo said he caught the racing bug almost immediately. “I pretty much started to watch racing and liked it,” Szabo said. Then, when he was 18-years-old, he and a friend won a race car experience at Richmond International Raceway. After racing around the track, Szabo thought, “This is what I have to do. I can’t do anything else with my life.” That passion motivated him to gain a racing license, grow connections in the racing world and try to move up

through the ranks. He started driving in road races with the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) in the MidAtlantic Road Racing Series (MARRS) held at Summit Point Raceway in Summit Point, West Virginia. Next, he raced with the National Auto Sport Association (NASA) in the CamaroMustang Challenge (CMC) held at the Virginia International Raceway in Alton, Virginia. Then, after gaining some experience, Szabo, aspiring to NASCAR, asked a friend to introduce him to Beaty who agree to let him to race on his All-American team, taking car #17. Szabo said that Beaty, who raced himself in the late 1960s and went on to be a team owner in the 1989, is like the “Godfather” of racing for him. Beaty has been team owner to such notable drivers as Mike Skinner, Randy Butler, Morgan Shepherd, Phillip Morris, Dicky Boswell, Dustin Storm and Brandon Butler, and has earn three national championships and nine local championships. Beaty said he continues to own teams because racing is so addictive, saying, “it’s worse than being a dope addict,” and that he plans to quit when it’s no longer fun for him. However, he explained, win or lose, it’s always a good time. In addition to Beaty’s help, Szabo relies on teammates to act as his coaches, especially teammate Dustin Storm. He 8

also receives host of support from those in the pit and from his father, who accompanies him to races. While NASCAR racing is thrilling for Szabo, he also admits it is trying. Although he sits stationary in the car, the sport requires immense physical endurance. For that reason, Szabo regularly trains at the gym, building his muscles to resist the G-force of the car’s acceleration. He also relies on state-of-the-art safety equipment for his safety. Lastly, race car driving requires a level of intense focus, strategy and quick decision making. Altogether, Szabo believes it makes for an exhilarating rush, which is also physically exhausting. “Your heart is racing a lot. You are drenched in sweat. It’s like you just took a shower,” he said. Then there are the times in which the business side of the NASCAR is challenging especially since drivers and their owners must acquire sponsors in order to pay for the cost of the race, maintenance on the car, a pit crew, 110 octane gasoline, multiple sets of tires and any damage the car might accrue in the course of a race. However, networking to earn sponsorships has proved to be valuable business experience for Szabo. And, he really believes in the effectiveness of a car sponsorship as an effective way for local and regional businesses to gain

positive recognition. Sponsors are the recipients of an affiliation with NASCAR, which is a family-friendly household name. They get exposure both locally and regionally. Most of all, they get assistance from Szabo and B & B Racing to help promote their company at local events just as the Fosters car often makes appearances at Haymarket Day and an old race car body now hangs in their Bristow location. Moreover, Szabo feels that businesses are buying more than the rights to advertise on the car, trailer or uniform. They are acquiring him as their biggest spokesperson, himself. Szabo believes he is the kind of driver that any business owner would be proud to have representing him. He stands out among other drivers in that he is a college graduate, having graduated from George Mason University in 2014. He is also a budding professional journalist, writing for the Haymarket community with Haymarket Beat, and he also pursues creative writing in his free time. Szabo said he hopes to continue to race in NASCAR’s All-American Series, and enjoys learning more about Haymarket through his work with Haymarket Beat.

TWEET HAPPY THOUGHTS

Study finds link between negative tweets and heart disease

Tweeting isn’t just a mode of self-expression. It may also be a good indicator of whether the tweeter is at risk of heart disease, according to a new study conducted by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania. Many factors can contribute to heart disease – from poor lifestyle choices such as lack of physical activity to socio-economic conditions (poverty) and psychological impacts (stress). The researchers found that Twitter can also capture the psychological well-being of a person or a community. The study found that emotions such as anger, fatigue and stress expressed through tweets were associated with a higher risk of heart disease while positive emotions and excitement were linked to a lower risk of coronary distress. Emotions and our mindset have an outsize effect on our health. Dr. Sheila Khianey, a cardiologist at Novant Health Haymarket Medical Center and Novant Health Prince William Medical Center, said she believes that a positive or negative mental state is the “single most important factor that shapes our health.” It’s based on some of mankind’s most primitive instincts and response

to fear and anger. The “fight or flight” response elevates the body’s stress levels during a dangerous situation, but subsides when the threat has passed. “With constant negativity, this response stays on, and it spirals into pathology,” Khianey said. “Our heart rate stays higher. The blood vessels in our body constrict. Our blood pressure rises and people develop medical conditions such as hypertension, heart disease and stroke.” In their analysis, the researchers looked at the language used in 148 million public tweets over two years from 1,347 counties across the country. They compared that information to public health data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for each county, including information on deaths from heart disease and rates of smoking, obesity and hypertension. Comparing the information, researchers found the models based on the tweets were an accurate indicator of heart disease death rates recorded by the CDC. While the researchers admitted that the angry tweeters were not necessarily the people dying of heart disease, they said if your neighbors

are angry, you are more likely to die of heart disease. Khianey thinks that investing in emotional health by the scientific and medical community is a good thing. “Our minds are very powerful and what we think, how we perceive ourselves and our environment – whether positive or negative – shapes our emotional and physical health and can also impact others,” Khianey said. Khianey said how a person reacts to negativity or positivity on social media or through other means is highly individual. She does believe that social media has changed the way people relate to each other, she added. “It has replaced at least in part the face-to-face interactions we had 10 years ago,” Khianey said. “Yet, it does not capture the full spectrum of human communication that takes place face-to-face.” As a consequence, meanings can be misconstrued and people forget that they are interacting with other human beings. Perhaps, the takeaway is to engage in social media wisely. Stay away from people who post emotionally negative tweets or stories and follow those who post while expressing hope and optimism.

HEY

Dad?!

Flight Plan by Bob Chrisman

Advice from dumb old Dad My son will soon be graduating from Battlefield High School and heading off to Virginia Tech. How did this happen? He can’t be an adult yet! I remember like it was yesterday when I lifted him above my head with a big smile and said to him what a handsome baby boy he was, only to have him give me a strange look, and then throw up all over the top of my head. I have kept boxes of drawings he made all through elementary school and stacks of school lessons and other significant papers and handouts from Bull Run Middle School and Battlefield. But, now he is wrapping up his final months of high school and preparing for Virginia Tech! Geez, can I slow down the clock a little, for just a few moments to take it all in? I mentioned this to my wife, about slowing down our kids growing up. She looked at me and said, “Really? After raising two children for the past 18 and 16 years, respectively, and living with you for 25 years, I just want peace in my life.” Hmmm….time to take my crazy lovable Chow Chow for an evening walk. My son joined me because he had a question for me. “Hey Dad? Can you help me plan for my college years?” Before I go into how I responded to his question, let me take you back to an evening walk during the summer leading into my son’s sophomore year of high school. During his freshmen year at Battlefield, my wife and I saw our son as a shy, reserved boy who tended to be a follower, and who was a bit overwhelmed by high school. Basically, our son was lost in the hallways of student bodies, school activities, and a new set of social norms and expectations. My wife and I spent

many hours that sophomore summer talking to our son about the importance of him developing leadership skills and in taking command of his destiny. We helped him develop a plan of action for the coming school year that set structure in his life. Our son determined that his mission as a Battlefield student was to achieve certain milestones before he graduated. From this mission, we helped him set goals to meet his mission and to set objectives to meet each goal. One goal that our son set was for him to develop his leadership skills. One particular objective that he set to achieve this goal was to run for Student Counsel Association (SCA). As written on the Battlefield High School webpage, the SCA was “…established to represent the interests of all Battlefield students and to encourage successful choices by our diverse student and community population.” Soon into the start of his sophomore year, our son read the announcement about SCA elections, and he was drawn to the position of Class Treasurer. Numbers and math had always come easy to him, and with a grandfather and a great grandfather who both had been successful finance officers during their careers, our son felt a family connection to be a treasurer. He ran for the position and was elected as Class Treasurer in both his sophomore and junior years, and he is currently serving as the School Treasurer this year. In preparing his college applications, my son had to write several essays. One of his essays spoke to his gaining leadership skills during his three-year tenure in the SCA. He wrote that being involved in

planning school events and working to make those events successful taught him lessons that he will carry with him into his college years and throughout the rest of his life. If I may quote from one of my son’s college essays: “My involvement in Battlefield’s SCA helped to usher me out of childhood and into adulthood. The lessons learned and the accomplishments I achieved as an SCA member have given me the confidence to step out on my own, to develop a sense of independence, to believe that I can be a leader. It was only a few years ago when I told my parents that I had no plans to grow up and leave our home, but now I am ready to venture off to college and see the world. I have confidence in my ability to achieve any milestone that I may set for myself. SCA helped me focus on my studies and other school related activities, and to find my academic strengths and niche. My parents tell me that they have seen me grow into a young adult who is ready to move on to the next phase in my life; that being, university study.” Back to my son’s question, “Hey Dad? Can you help me plan for my college years?” I responded with an immediate yes, but with a caveat. First, he must continue to focus on completing his senior year. “Once you are done,” I said, “we will spend the summer preparing for Virginia Tech.” The reason why I responded in this manner is because my family recently attended a Virginia Tech “Hokie Focus” new student orientation session. During one particularly thoughtful speech given by a former VT student, I jotted down a few notes that I will offer to my son as advice from dumb old Dad in the coming months.

Bob Chrisman is a Federal employee who is married with one son, one daughter, and a Chow Chow. He and his family have been residents of Haymarket since 2002. Feedback is welcomed at heydadcomments@aol.com 12

Cash, Check or Charge by Chip Register

For their convenience and ease of use debit and credit cards are an integral part of our financial lives. Because we depend upon them to conduct those important, daily transactions, we are more than a little frustrated when we discover our card has been compromised by yet another security breach at yet another retailer. Frustration yields to concern for personal financial security, as each event requires us to work with the issuing bank to maintain the financial integrity of our accounts and ensure our financial security is intact. It is the custom and responsibility of financial institutions to work with their customers toward a successful outcome. Critical to a smooth, swift resolution is the collaborative effort between us and our bank. Prompt reporting of

suspected fraudulent activity is the first step of this process that is followed by the bank’s working with us to address the suspicious transaction and reissue new cards to prevent potential fraudulent activity. Time is of the essence, as swift action thwarts criminals seeking to use illegally obtained financial information. In the U.S., prevalent card media for credit and debit cards utilizes the magnetic stripe located on the back of each plastic card. This area contains key information pertinent to card operation. Stored information includes: cardholder name, account number, expiration date, and other cardspecific elements. At the time of purchase, the quick “swipe” at the terminal allows the merchant to quickly read the card information and efficiently process the transaction. The technology is straight-forward and has worked well for many

years; therein lies the flaws of magnetic stripe technology: 1) the information in the magnetic stripe is easily copied and reproduced, and 2) the technology does not take advantage of developments to better secure the card’s information. The “plastic” that we now use in place of cash is simple, efficient, and quick. How can it also be more secure? By now consumers are aware of new card technology known by multiple names: “chip-and-pin” and EMV (Europay, MasterCard, and Visa). Regardless of the name of preference, EMV-enabled debit and credit cards provide enhanced transaction security owing to a computer chip embedded in the plastic card. While current versions of EMV-enabled cards will also include the magnetic stripe, the card serves primarily as a chip-and-pin card and only utilizes the magnetic stripe at merchants whose terminals do not accept EMV transactions. It is important to note that EMV-enabled cards will reduce fraudulent activity only for transactions conducted when the cardholder is present at the merchant’s location. Consequently, these are called “card present” transactions. (Think buying groceries at the store or purchasing gas at the station.) EMV-enabled cards do not reduce the risk of fraud for “card not present” transactions. (For example, purchases made online or by telephone.) To protect consumers from “card not present” fraud another, more recent card technology is required. Tokenization, a technology employed by Apple Pay and Google Wallet, can be effective for “card present” transactions, but it is equally effective for “card not present” transactions. The primary reason tokenization provides security for both type of card transactions is that easily identifiable, financial information is not sent to a merchant. Instead, the necessary card information is encrypted and a single use “token” is employed to deliver the purchase information to complete the transaction. Customer information is secure from prying eyes. Banks are in the process of implementing features to perform tokenized transactions to debit and credit cards, providing key protection to the consumer whether in the store or online.

HGBA Member Spotlight Business Name: Live Life Well, LLC HGBA Member Name(s): Karen David, RN CWC HGBA Member since: 2014 Address: 332 W. Lee Highway Warrenton, VA20186 Phone: 540-219-1797 Email: karen@livelifewellconsulting.com Web: livelifewellconsulting.com

When and why did you decide to start your own company? In 2008 I had several events that put me on the track to wellness coaching and starting my own business. I had been working in an infusion center caring for individuals receiving chemotherapy, as well as other intervenous medications. I had been continuing my education at this time in Holistic Wellness, focusing on the body, mind and spirit and the strength within each person to be well. “As wife, mother of an 11 year old son, nurse and many other identities, I often found myself struggling to know how to take care of myself. I began to explore who I was body, emotion and essence and discover more on my diagnosis. I found encouragement from family and friends to build and sustain confidence in self, leading me to be empowered in my health choices! So, now I bring to you in my coaching business, all that has been given to me: a safe place to ask and learn more of your personal health concerns, a calm heart to encourage you in self- confidence and an empowering coaching model to guide you in making powerful choices for your health!” How long have you been at your current job, why did you choose your firm? In 2013, I opened my business, offering clients a guidance to choose lifestyle and behavior wellness choices that create powerful individuals, living well. How does your business serve the Haymarket-Gainesville community? I believe that everyone has the power within to be well, to make the lifestyle and behavior choices to lead powerful purposeful lives. In this belief, my business offers the Haymarket-Gainesville community a resource to encourage personal growth to residents, which in turn will lead to productive community and business growth in areas of passion for each individual. Please share one of the greatest moments you’ve experienced in your business. I love the “aha moment” when working with a client on a specific wellness/health concern and “the forest becomes visible amongst the trees”. The moment an individual feels the peace of connection between their wellness, their family, their business and their community. Have you had an experience with your business that you wish you could redo differently? Each client and each coaching experiences has challenges. Working with a client and spouse at the same session is challenging to stay on topic.

Next Best Thing The

Brand new must have plants by Paola Mcdonald

Phenomenal Lavendar 16

Did you get that awful virus that was going around in March? The one that rendered you helpless for two weeks? I did and I know several other people who did. The upside of that for me was the opportunity to catch up on my reading, especially the stack of gardening magazines. To let you know how far behind I was I read “What’s New for 2014!” The problem with those articles, while they are interesting, they can also be very frustrating. It doesn’t matter if a plant is new for 2015 or 1997, if it’s not available locally I’m really not that much interested in it. So I had the inspiration to find out what is new for 2015 in our area garden stores and it is all exciting, wonderful and available now. I will start with Phenomenal Lavender. Of all of the plants I discovered, this is one of my two Must Haves. This Lavender has been bred to withstand hot humid summers and rough winters. It has a compact, bushy shape that makes it great as a focus plant or a filler plant. While it resists deer, rabbits and squirrels it attracts butterflies.

Phenomenal Lavender truly earns the name. Catmint, or Nepeta, is a great plant for our area because it deters deer and is drought resistant but it can also get rangey and the flowers aren’t very exciting. The new version, Purple Haze, is a completely different Catmint. It stays low, about 10 inches high, with silver toned leaves. The soft blue/purple flowers are similar in form to Butterfly Bush making this plant showy and versatile. It can be used as a groundcover, a border or mixed in a perennial garden. I will put some of these around my roses because I think it will frame them instead of hide them as well as put up a scent fence. I love Baptisia but I only have one because it gets so big. The new Baptisia, “Decadence”, is much more compact. Fourteen years ago, Hans Hansen started making crosses and finally achieved a plant that gets no larger than 3 X 5’ so it can be used throughout the garden instead of just in the back. The new names are yummy: Blueberry Sundae, Lemon Meringue, Dutch Chocolate and Haymarket Lifestyle

Cherries Jubilee. This Baptisia attracts butterflies and it definitely attracts me. Astilbes are great. They light up shady areas, resist deer and ask little or nothing from the gardener except water when it’s dry. The new “Younique” series improves on a good thing. They are more rounded, compact plants with even more vibrant flower colors and blooms that are denser, closer together. Even if you plant only one (but go for 3) of ‘Carmine’, ‘Lilac’, ‘Silvery Pink’ or ‘White’ you will have a bouquet in the shade. The new Deutzias – Yuki Cherry Blossom and Yuki Snowflake are my other Must Haves, especially Cherry Blossom. I think Deutzias are under used and under appreciated. They are small, deer resistant shrubs that ask little and give a lot. The standard Deutzia becomes covered with small, single, white flowers when it blooms. Yuki snowflake has more flowers and they are doubles. Yuki Cherry Blossom has flowers that are cream on the inside and magenta on the outside. I can think of about 6 different places I want to plant this. Better Homes and Gardens named them “Must Grow Shrub for 2014” with good reason. I am a Hydrangea Addict. What I can’t find a place for in my gardens I happily plant in customers’ yards. The Endless Summer Series of Hydrangeas is what started my habit and now they have a new one, Bloomstruck. Imagine purple or rosy red flower clusters that are 3 to 5 inches across on reddish purple stems set off by green leaves with red veins. Bloomstruck has an above average heat tolerance and resists powdery mildew. If that isn’t enough for you, it has a finale of burgundy /red foliage in the fall. Want more? Blue Kazoo Spirea has blue foliage with a tinge of burgundy when it is new and clusters of pure white flowers. Deer aren’t interested in this plant but hummingbirds, butterflies and people are drawn to it. Chestnut Hill Cherry Laurel is an improvement on the standard Otto Luyken. It is more compact, 18

rounder and can handle heavy pruning to keep it at a desired height. It still has the lovely white candle blooms plus being resistant to Shothole disease. I found a new annual, Wave Viola “Hip Hop”, which is a cross between a Wave Pansy and a Viola. The names are great: Cranbunny, Honeybuuny and Bluebunny and they incorporate the best of both parents. Primroses have new colors as well as Erysinum. Watercress, which is the very most supreme Super Food, has a variation out that can be a garden plant. I used to pick this out of a stream on my way home from school, put it in my empty lunchbox and treat my mother with it. If this new kind can grow in the low spot of our vegetable garden I will be very happy. There are even some garden chemical improvements. Rose Shield, by Bonide works as a contact spray as well as a systemic. It is rain and waterproof in 60 minutes and works against a wide range of diseases and insects. Fruit Tree Guard has a new chemical formula so resistance to it is low. It has a new feature of working on downy mildew on Impatiens. While these products have not been made safer for the environment they have been reformulated so they are safer for the applicator. This is important because I know for a fact that we don’t always use enough protection when we are applying pesticides and fungicides. I had so much fun researching this article. It was exciting to talk with the people in the nurseries because they were happy it is finally spring and happy to share news about their new plants and products. It was fascinating for me to do research online to get additional information and see the pictures of the plants and their blooms. I encourage you to do the same. Did one or more of these plants get you interested? Go to the internet, see the beautiful pictures and read the descriptions. Then go out to a local garden store, find that perfect plant and celebrate spring in your garden.

Prolonged back pain or discomfort after driving? by Cierra Washington & Dr Heather Lucas, sports chiropractor

Most Northern Virginians face a daily commute of at least one hour or more in each direction, resulting in prolonged discomfort and back pain. Most people don’t realize that they by making few minor changes to their seat, steering wheel height and distance from the pedal that they can minimize their pain. Before making any adjustments to your seat and steering wheel make sure that: • Steering wheel is fully up and fully forward • Seat height is at its lowest • Cushion titled so the front edge is in the lowest position • Backrest is approximately 30 degrees from vertical • Lumbar adjustment backed off • Seat fully rearwards Now that you are in the proper position, we will begin adjusting the many components of your seat, steering wheel and distance from the pedals to fit you and produce the least amount of back discomfort and pain by following these eight steps.

Clear your vision by adjusting the seat as high as comfortable to maximize vision of the road, but low enough to adequately clear the roof. Adjust your seat forward so that you can easily depress both the accelerator and decelerator with control. The cushion should be tilted to allow for the thighs to be maximally supported along the length of the cushion, avoiding pressure behind the knees. The back of the seat should align the entire length of back making contact up to shoulder height. Reclining the seat back too far may cause excessive forward bending of the head and neck causing great discomfort. The lumbar support is the lower portion of the back rest that SHOULD rest against your low back without pressure points or gaps. Adjust your steering wheel towards you and downward so that it is easy to reach, but clears your thighs and knees. It should not obstruct your display panel. Headrests are meant to support your head and neck from risk of injury during an accident, so ensure that is located directly behind your head. Mirrors. Rearview and side mirrors should be adjusted so that they can be used without excessive stressing of the neck and upper body.

History

Haymarket Museum, changing with the times Local history will be shared using new media resources by John T. Toler The Haymarket Museum, located at 15025 Washington Street, will open its 2015 season on May 2 with a special exhibit, “Food and Farming in the Piedmont Region.” This is a collaborative effort with The Turn the Mill Around Campaign, owners of the ChapmanBeverley Mill site at Thoroughfare Gap. This exhibit is especially appropriate, since for over 100 years farmers from Western Prince William County brought their grains to the mill to be ground and processed. The exhibit, featuring artifacts and vintage photographs, runs through May 31. Regular museum hours are Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and by appointment. The director of the Haymarket Museum is Denise Hall, who started working for the Town of Haymarket in administration at Town Hall about three years ago. She was later appointed Museum Director, and on Jan. 1, 2015, she assumed added responsibilities as Haymarket’s Main Street Coordinator, reporting to Town Manager Brian Henshaw. Ms. Hall, who lives just outside of Haymarket, holds a degree in Speech Communication with a concentration in broadcast journalism from George Mason 22

University, and has completed several hours in Art History classes. The museum is also staffed by four volunteers, who keep the museum open on weekends: Tina Morgan, Danielle Kijewski, Jeanne Goldfarb and Ernest Dalby, all of whom are local residents. They serve as docents and assist with research on exhibits. “We are always seeking additional volunteers,” said Ms. Hall. During the past winter, work has been done on the building in order to preserve it. “Last December, we had a new metal roof put on the building, which should last for the next 100-150 years,” notes Ms. Hall.

A truly historic site

According to the survey done for the Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission in the 1970s, planning for the structure now housing the museum began in late 1883, when the Haymarket Town Council “…reported that $561 had been raised to build a combination school house and town hall, $411 by subscription and $150 from an oyster supper. Council elected a board of trustees and instructed them to make the necessary arrangements.” Thomas Smith, John Reid and Eppa

TOP: Corn meal bag from Beverley Mill, c. 1950. BOTTOM: Photographed in the late 1970s, the Haymarket Museum was still being used as the town hall. After a fire in 2002, the town hall was moved across the street, and the building repaired and opened as a museum. Haymarket Lifestyle

1: The Gainesville-Haymarket Fire Department was one located in the middle of the town; today, the fire company’s sign hangs from the wall in the museum. 2: The original doors from the pharmacy/post office across Washington Street have been restored, and are on permanent display at the Haymarket Museum. 3: Museum Director Denise Hall explains how vintage draft animal harness was used many years ago. Hanging on the wall behind her is a painting done by Mary Dulany Carter of a memorable horse race that took place at Haymarket in 1804. 4: Relics from some of Haymarket’s old stores and some vintage personal items are on display in a cabinet in the museum. Hunton donated a lot at the corner of Washington and Fayette streets, and the School Board agreed to provide $150 worth of furniture for the new school. Completed in 1884 by contractor Will Shirley, it was the first two-story schoolhouse built in Prince William County. It was used as a school until 1910, when the larger Haymarket School was built at the end of North Fayette Street. No longer needed as a school, over the years the building has served as a polling place for elections, a lending library, the meeting place for the Haymarket Women’s Club, the town hall, and office of the town constable and police. A major fire in 2002 forced the town to move their offices across Washington Street to space in the old Gossom’s Hardware Store, where they are today. The former town hall building was repaired, and reopened later that year as the Haymarket Museum. Ms. Hall notes that while the old building had served many different purposes over the years, it was never used as a church. “A lot of people think that it was once a church, because we have a steeple and bell tower,” she said. “But it 24

was not a church.” The Haymarket Museum came about largely due to the efforts of the Haymarket Historical Commission, led by the late Sarah M. Turner. Funding to convert the building to a museum came from donations and other sources, and volunteers provided staffing. Others involved in running the museum in the past include Ellie Ivancic and Fran Marie Jancito. The original mission of the museum – to educate residents of the Haymarket community and the surrounding areas about the unique history of the town – has not changed, and will become even more significant as new projects are undertaken and exhibits created. Currently, planning is underway for an exhibit about the historic structures in the town. Ms. Hall stresses that the museum is opened for visits by students and other groups, and is a logical field trip destination for area schools, especially for fourth grade Virginia history studies. “That’s something we are working on,” she said. “Reaching the fourth graders in the Haymarket area – actually, all schoolage groups – is something we definitely want to do.”

Variety of events

The museum was open for Haymarket’s Earth Day observance in April, and will participate in Haymarket’s Health and Fitness Day on June 27, and the annual Haymarket Day on Sept. 19. On Dec. 5, the museum will again hold its Haymarket Holiday Party. The Regency Model Railroad Club returns to the museum again this year, bringing its “Salute to the Railways” exhibit, which will run from June 6-28. The restored 1974 Norfolk Southern caboose next to the museum will be open to visitors during regular hours. “We reached out to Norfolk Southern last year and they sent us brochures, but we are hoping they will do more this year,” said Ms. Hall. “I would eventually like to build it up to some type of railroad excursion, like they do in Manassas as part of their huge railroad exhibit.” Growing appreciation of Haymarket’s history is evident in the recent renovation of the nearby Hulfish House, now a retail store, and the old pharmacy/post office building across Washington Street from the museum, which now houses a real estate agency.

The goal is to make history easier to share, which will result in a greater appreciation of Haymarket’s rich past. If you have an interest in History and would like to volunteer with the Haymarket Museum’s exhibits and research, please contact Denise Hall at 703-753-3712.

Haymarket Museum A caboose donated to the Town of Haymarket by Norfolk Southern Railroad sits next to the museum, a reminder of the influence the railroad has had on the town. According to Ms. Hall (pictured), the caboose was cleaned up and painted by volunteers, and is open for visitors during museum hours. War Sesquicentennial helped establish Haymarket as a tourist destination, and long-term projects like the brick sidewalks are making the town a “walk-able” place to visit as well. Ms. Hall, thinking as both the museum director and Main Street coordinator, sees the museum someday becoming a “welcome center” for the town, providing information about local businesses, restaurants and what’s going on in Haymarket. “Eventually, we would like to expand, but being mostly volunteer, we would have to work our way up to that point,” said Ms. Hall.

Growing online presence

The Haymarket Museum has had an Internet Website for several years, which includes links to a range of interesting historical topics. Found on the site is a history of the town from the 18th century through the Civil War; articles about several historic structures; a “People” link with articles about prominent citizens and a useful surname directory; maps of Haymarket from 1787 to 1958; and links to 14 Prince William County Websites (including Haymarket Lifestyle magazine and the Ruth E. Lloyd Information Center) and five Commonwealth of

Virginia Web sites of historic interest. Plans are currently in the works to update the Website, and increase outreach through social media, including text messages and photos on Facebook and Twitter. “Even when the museum is not open, people will have access to what is inside the museum, through pictures and slides,” Ms. Hall explained. Acai mobile information creation software will be used. During the Civil War Sesquicentennial, postings were sent out daily about events that took place in Haymarket during the war. Ms. Hall and her volunteers do the posting, and photographs are routinely included in the posts.

ARTIST

Spotlight

When people think of an area that is known as a burgeoning arts scene, Haymarket may not particularly come to mind. However, it’s slowly becoming more and more of a place for artists, musicians, writers, and performers to hone and showcase their talents. This month, the artist spotlight is on Juniper Briggs, a selfdescribed abstract artist, curator, writer, wife, and mom of two girls. Juniper’s interest in art began as a child, specifically with painting. The art lessons she was exposed to at an early age taught her about composition, technique, and color. Then in middle school, she fell in love with photography and spent a few years in the dark room pursuing that creative outlet. But her talents are not just limited to these two genres; in college, she minored in modern dance and created a film documentary as her thesis. She says, “It’s safe to say, I’m at my happiest when I’m making art!” Growing up in the mountains of North Carolina “in a community filled with artists,” Juniper was inspired to include creativity into her daily life by the glass blowers, potters, and painters MODERN ARTIST surrounding her. Later, time spent in Europe experiencing the art museums there and writing for an arts magazine in Southern California only furthered her pursuits of the arts, especially after attending inspiring arts shows by local artists. After getting married and building her family, her artistic endeavors naturally took a back seat; however she found that “painting offered a sweet relief from both work and parenthood,” in particular the world of abstract painting since it gave her so much freedom. Her return to painting was due, in part, to the modern days of Pinterest and Etsy, both sites having a “huge influence” on her decision to pick the paint brush back up. “They offered a visual feast of inspiration. I started making art boards and color boards and studying the artists I was most drawn to,” she says. Juniper’s pieces are modern, colorful, and unique. She explains: “I rely on my instincts to take me through the creative process. I love working with layers, adding and omitting details to create unexpected and compelling moments. My paintings are playful, bright, and energetic, reflecting not only my interest in flawed beauty but also my joy in the process.” Juniper lives with her family in Nokesville, Virginia where she feels that this area has so much to offer for artists. “I can find inspiration in nature, picking blackberries at a local farms or sitting on the banks of the Shenandoah River. On the other hand, I can just as easily find it at the National Gallery of Art in the city or a local art fair around town.” To learn more about Juniper Briggs, visit juniperbriggs.com where you can purchase art pieces, contact her about commission works, and read her blog.

Oh Sew Persnickety A friendly, inspirational store for sewists of all skill levels

Kimberly Chandler, owner

34

Kimberly Chandler spent her early years as an intern in Atlanta, Georgia at the interior design firm called Persnickety Interiors. During this time, she learned many life lessons, both personal and professional, from the owner of the firm, who she credits with setting her on her path towards owning her own store, Oh Sew Persnickety Fabrics and Threads, in Haymarket. After a 25-year career in the interior design field, Chandler began to shift her focus towards her love for textiles, while also learning more about the “modern and fresh look in quilting and sewing.” Her new business began solely as an online endeavor on Etsy, a site for crafted and homemade goods. The next step was an online web store, which she says helped her to feel surrounded by the very thing she loved, but she still found she was missing the interaction and collaboration with customers. Chandler then began to pursue her store, ultimately opening space in the town of Haymarket because of the presence of quilters in the area and the connection and affection she feels for the people here. In February, Oh Sew Persnickety Fabrics and Threads officially opened, the name serving to pay homage to the firm where she began her path. Oh Sew Persnickety Fabrics and Threads is the newest place in Haymarket for crafting, quilting, and all things sewing. The bright and modern design of the store highlights the rows of beautiful fabrics of all different varying designs and colors lining the walls. Fabrics can be found

organized by collection or by category, such as fabrics for quilting, apparel, children’s rooms, and crafts. Located on the corner of a row of small, humble shops, Oh Sew Persnickety is sure to become a place crafters, both experienced and new to the art, come again and again to share ideas and find the perfect fabrics for their next pursuit. A visitor stopping in the store might find Chandler at the cutting table, discussing crafting ideas with customers she knows by name. Chandler says the customers who have walked through her doors have been “so encouraging and inspiring” to her and she looks forward to getting to know many more. Chandler emphasizes that Oh Sew Persnickety welcomes anyone interested in sewing, no matter what skill set they possess. “Young or mature, I would love for you to come and feel comfortable,” she says. To encourage those wanting to learn more, Chandler will be offering classes in the store in addition to forming sewing clubs and being host to those wanting to gather for a day of sewing together. Oh Sew Persnickety Fabrics and Threads is located at 15125 Washington Street in Suite 116 down the row at the opposite end of Cupcake Heaven. The entrance is on the side of the store that is not facing Washington Street. To learn more about the store, including special promotions and new products, go to facebook.com/ohsewpersnickety or ohsewpersnickety.com or call 571222-7759. Haymarket Lifestyle

FURRY FRIENDS

DOG AT YOUR SERVICE Helping Humans In Every Day Life by Charlotte Wagner Service dogs are animals employed to assist people with varying disabilities and disorders. Many are trained to aid their owners with physical limitations whereas others help with conditions that are unseen to the naked eye. Service dogs are carefully selected, highly skilled, and extraordinarily trained partners who provide a wide range of jobs to help their owners in every day life. Increased employability, function, independence, and freedom are just some of the perks. The Americans with Disabilities Act defines a service animal as: “dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with

disabilities... Service animals are working animals, not pets. The work or task a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability.” Selecting a Service Dog The process of acquiring a service dog begins by taking a look at the owner’s lifestyle and evaluating individual needs before committing to a prospective dog. What tasks will the dog have to perform? What

conditions will the dog be working in? What type of transport does the owner have? What types of activities does the owner partake in? How many hours a day will the dog be able to rest? A larger dog with great endurance would be an appropriate match for balance and physical assistance, whereas a smaller dog that travels easily may be more suitable as an alert dog for someone who frequently travels. General criteria related to size, grooming/maintenance, health, and appearance should all be within the owner’s capabilities. Once a handful of breeds or type has been established, further selection must be made based temperament. Drive, sociability, adaptability,

Cooper is a PTSD service dog. His jobs include indicating when people are approaching in close proximity, fetching medicine when out of reach, and alerting to nightmares.

mental soundness, and overall personality should work hand in hand with the tasks the dog will have to perform for it’s owner. Types of Service Dogs There are many roles service dogs may have, but most commonly they are employed to assist people with physical limitations, to alert for medical conditions, and provide psychological support. Physical Assistance Dogs Physical assistance dogs become an extension of their owners to compliment areas of sensory limitations. They assist individuals who utilize a wheelchair helping or have mobile restrictions by helping their owners getting dressed, fetching household items, opening doors, manipulating lights and carrying items. Aid in mobility through limited bracing and stabilization is also a common asset. Hearing dogs are trained to identify sounds unsuspecting to their owners for increased awareness. This may include indicating to alarms, sirens, phones, people calling their name, and timers. For those with lack of vision, seeing eye dogs are employed to assist in navigation around obstacles, through crowds, around stairs or curbs, and to find various objects. Medical Alert Dogs Medical alert dogs are skilled to sense a particular physiological crisis prior to the onset of a reactive episode. Some dogs have the natural ability to observe bodily changes, whereas others are specifically trained to indicate to alterations in the body. Diabetes alert dogs are used as tools to identify changes of low or high blood sugar levels. Providing early alerts means owners can take measures to regulate their blood glucose before imminent danger. Diabetes alert dogs can be trained to decipher variances in the blood using scent discrimination training. Similarly seizure detection dogs have the capability to warn people moments and even hours prior that a seizure may occur. These dogs are 38

usually very human-oriented and may use varying behaviors to indicate the onset of a seizure to their owner. Unlike diabetic assistance dogs, seizure dogs often possess a natural ability to detect the onset of an episode; a trait that has not yet been linked to specific breeding strategies. In some cases this skill can be trained using sweat samples from the owner; however varying degrees of effectiveness have been reported. Psychological Support Dogs Psych support dogs are increasingly employed as society becomes more aware of their impact on mental health and wellness. The expansion of their use is most notable in veterans and civilians experiencing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Dogs become multifunctional by acting as social barriers/ buffers, indicating oncoming anxiety/ panic attacks, providing mobility support, carrying supplies, fetching items when there is memory loss, medicine retrieves and reminds, redirection for mood stabilization, and disrupting night terrors. Autism assistance dogs provide an invaluable service to individuals and families living with autism. Dogs are specifically trained to provide children with physical safety, environmental awareness, and aid in social facilitation. These dogs give children and adults a sense of routine, consistency, reliance, and stability that enables a more independent life. Tasks to assist with individual needs are usually incorporated in their training. Service Dogs: Not for the Lazy or Faint of Heart! Service dogs may be acquired through a dedicated organization, or by hiring a private trainer. Work ethic, drive, endurance, trainability, social skills, and adaptability are often considered when selecting candidates. Regional and national organizations often specialize in producing their own stock through specialized breeding practices, but will also accept breeder donations, or suitable rescue dogs from shelters. Private trainers will often use similar criteria and take the owner’s individual needs into

One of the many skills service dogs have to learn is safely walking next to a cart with their owner while following directional commands. consideration before searching for a correct match. The training process through which a service dog goes is long, rigorous, time consuming, as well as long term financial and emotional investment. Local resident Jan M. has utilized a hearing dog to alert her of various sounds for the past 7 years. Her Labrador Retriever “Jetta” had completed rigorous training through a non-profit organization in Maryland before being paired with her owner at 4 years of age. After two knee replacements and many years of successful employment Jetta will be enjoying her old age in retirement from her daily duties as a working canine. In fall of 2014 owner Jan made the decision to attempt an alternate route and hire a private trainer to assist her in selecting and training a new hearing dog. Her new partner is “Abby”, an adolescent Labrador/ Pointer mix adopted from the Fauquier SPCA. Looking back Jan describes the selection process: “We had set up a check list and Abby met everything on it. How could this happen? I literally looked at the trainer and said, ‘I need to step back and look at this without the lovable, adorable pup looking me in the eyes.’ We drove down the road and stopped to talk. It was the right dog and I’ve no regrets.” Abby’s natural curiosity, sociability, desire to learn, biddability, energy, and drive during her evaluation made her an ideal candidate as a hearing dog.

Abby works on a settle down while Jan takes a moment to read labels. Reliable impulse control is one of the harder aspects of training public access skills. After 4 months of training Abby has learned basic obedience, public access skills, impulse control, and can indicate to various sounds including cell phones, timers, sirens, and alarms. Her owner agrees that “She is a great problem solver and often alerts me to new sounds we’ve not even taught her...they are just loud and she thinks I need to know about them.” Her training has consisted of bi-weekly private training lessons since December in addition to homework and practice sessions with her owner. When asked about the bigger challenges in training Jan explains “Some days it was like flying a kite”; she was not fully aware as to what all the training process entailed and how to accomplish goals, yet she remains grateful to have an experienced trainer who is willing to train the human alongside the dog. Impulsive puppy behavior and pulling was especially frustrating at the beginning. Assistance dogs are an invaluable asset, however we cannot forget that they are living,

breathing, beings who require our patient guidance to mature into successful workers. Jan has learned from her experience: “these dogs are not robots, they are animals”. As their trainer watching Jan and Abby transform from the bare essentials to a beautifully choreographed team has been an absolute joy. I am constantly blown away by Jan’s work ethic, determination, and passion while observing Abby’s natural ability, intuition, and drive to work for and with her owner. I believe Jan puts it best “training your own service dog is not for the lazy or faint of heart” and I could not agree more. Many hours of frustration, sweat, tears, enlightenment, and joy are still to come before Abby is a a full time service dog; but the work put in has paid ten fold in progress and outcome. Therapy and Emotional Support Dogs Unlike service dogs who are task trained, the sole purpose of therapy and emotional support dogs is to provide comfort. Therapy dogs are often certified through an organization that sets forth training standards and code of conduct in order to pursue volunteer visits. Owners may take their dogs for other people’s enjoyment to assisted living communities, group homes, psychotherapy facilities, or to help motivate people undergoing physical therapy and rehabilitation. In some cases therapy dogs are used to help build confidence in children learning how to read and help increase social skills. Emotional support animals are pets who provide comfort and psychological aid to disabled owners. They are not required to have any type of training and could be of different species. The Americans with Disabilities Act states “Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the ADA”; however the Fair Housing Act

does allow housing of these pets in otherwise restricted residential areas. The Public And Service Dogs There has been much controversy surrounding service dogs as an increasing number of fraudulent claims are made to pass pets as working animals. Business owners need to be aware that service dogs have the right to access public areas and that only certain questions may be asked to inquire about the dog. According to the ADA these include: Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability? What work or task has the dog been trained to perform? Unfortunately there is no nationally recognized designation for assistance animals causing miscommunication and conflict for some service dog owners and businesses. Service animals can be asked to leave a premises if the owner is unable to control their dog, or the dog is not house broken. It is important for the public to respect legitimate working animals and not to disturb owners when out in public. In some cases the dogs are used as a social buffer, whereas in others the dog is continuously working for the owner and should not be distracted from it’s job. Service dogs should wear a vest or cape to identify themselves and will often have a patch reading “DO NOT TOUCH” in order to prevent the public from interaction. It is also important to ensure that children are made aware of the role a service dog performs and to practice restraint around working animals. It is important to take individual needs and expectations into consideration before committing to the rigorous process of owning and training a service dog. Employing this aid helps decrease an individuals dependence on family, friends, and those around them, while increasing confidence and control. With the correct match, it can be an invaluable asset to a variety of people who would otherwise be limited.

Charlotte Wagner is a certified animal trainer and behavior consultant. She successfully completed her BS with honors from the University of Essex in England furthering her passion in training and behavior. She advocates that prevention, management, redirection, and training of alternate responses is key to training success. Charlotte currently owns and operates Duskland Training and Behavior in Warrenton and can be regularly seen at conformation dog shows, agility events, rally obedience trials, therapy visits, and community gatherings with one or more of her precious pets. 40

DISCOVER EXPLORE LOCAL FOUNDATION EDUCATES AND EXCITES STUDENTS ABOUT SCIENCE THROUGH HANDS ON SCIENCE PROGRAMS Discover and explore could be the best two words to describe the actions children engage in on a daily basis from the time they can begin to see the world around them. For Meg Doppée, of Discover and Explore Science Education Foundation, this is also how she sees her world, which may be why she is so engaging with the children who participate in her programs. Doppée, with degrees in both Zoology and Education, founded this organization “to educate and excite students about science, and spark imagination through exciting hands-on science programs.” Using her past experience as a Director of Education for the Marine Science Institute in California and then as the Curator of Science Education at the Palo Alto Junior Museum and Zoo, Doppée aims for each and every program to give her students the opportunity to “Be the Scientist” while creating “lifelong learners.” Discover and Explore Science Education Foundation, developed by science teachers, has been participating in local schools by enhancing the already existing 42

curriculum while adhering to Virginia Standards of Learning. Doppée has traveled all around the Haymarket area and beyond bringing these exciting programs, often with her animal companions along, for children in preschool and Kindergarten through 5th grade. However, perhaps even more exciting is that now the program has a space to call home at “The Lab” which is located inside the QBE Headquarters space (the old Pace West school) on Washington Street in Haymarket. This exciting new development allows families to register children for after-school classes and even summer camps. These classes have so much to offer for kids and families, including an opportunity for preschoolers and their parents to participate together to try new things while learning about chemistry and science. Classes for varying ages may include learning about air pressure, lights, optics, motion, energy, and force among many unique topics. Kids who like to get their hands dirty will thrive given the opportunity to actually get messy, especially in a class called “Slime, Ooze, and Haymarket Lifestyle

Claudia’s Squiggly Things.” The active child on the move may enjoy playing games in the “Science of Toys” class while the junior cook will love “Kitchen Chemistry” which explores what happens when common pantry items are combined in unique ways. “Jr. Detectives” will have kids inspecting clues and using their observation powers to determine the culprit of the crime. There is even a class about magic that will have aspiring magicians perfecting their tricks to perform for future audiences. And new this summer, Discover and Explore will be offering art classes and camps taught by local art teachers Jennifer Marshall and Suzi Burns. These classes, for ages 5 through 15, will allow children to experience mixed media, textiles, book making, painting, and much more. Discover and Explore even offers birthday parties for children to gather with their closest friends to have fun together learning and exploring. Doppée has a dream for the future to open a small children’s science museum in the area to give families a local place to take children for exploration and education. Anyone interested in helping to make this dream a reality is encouraged to get involved; this could be by playing a role on an Advisory Board or participating as a member of the Board of Directors. To learn more about the organization and how interested families can get involved, and to register children for classes, go to discoverandexplore.org, email info@discoverandexplore.org, or call Meg Doppée at 571-308-6743.

Caring for Your Mind and Body Mental Health Awareness Month by Esther Boykin

We all know about the importance about taking care of our health— eating right, getting enough sleep, exercising. Healthy habits positively influence how a person feels and how their body functions. But a true sense of wellness involves not only caring for our body, but also our mind and our relationships. Wellness is more than an absence of disease. It involves complete general, mental and social well-being. And mental health is an essential component of overall health and well-being. The fact is our overall well-being is tied to the balance that exists between our emotional, physical, spiritual and mental health. Whatever our situation, we’re all experiencing some level of stress given the demands of daily life and the challenges it brings—at home, at work and in relationships. Yet, unlike our physical health, we often minimize or ignore the signs that we need better mental health care. Poor mental health can be anything from dealing with a diagnosable illness such as depression or anxiety, to feeling overwhelmed with school or a major life change like divorce or a new baby. Left unchecked, these stressors and illnesses can significantly impact not only your happiness but your physical health. For instance, research shows

that stress is closely linked to high blood pressure, heart disease and obesity. Not to mention the emotional toll it takes when we force ourselves to deal with these life challenges all alone. It’s time to change the story when it comes to mental health. This month is Mental Health Awareness Month and at my practice, Group Therapy Associates, we are even more enthusiastic than usual about raising awareness of the role mental health plays in our lives. Good mental health care is much more than just sitting on our therapy couch once a week or talking to your doctor about anti-depressants, or getting help to manage a crisis. Although these things are important to emotional wellness, they are not the full story. Mental health is as an integral part of your healthy lifestyle just like diet and exercise. It shapes how resilient you are, physically

and emotionally, when it comes to stress and illness, and can impact everything from your success at work or school to how well you sleep at night. As a psychotherapist, I believe it is my duty to make it easier than ever to prioritize your emotional well-being and get the support you need (and deserve). We believe that ‘therapy’ can be as simple as attending a class to learn better stress management or parenting skills, or an online chat about coping with common symptoms of depression or anxiety. We even host social events at local wineries and restaurants to bring the expertise of local wellness professionals into fun and relaxed environments. Mental health can be a serious topic but it doesn’t have to be intimidating or embarrassing. Staying healthy means caring for your mind and your body- as part of the Mental Health Awareness month I want to encourage you to find new and creative ways to do just that. If you need information on local resources and online screening tools, please visit www. grouptherapyassociates.com/ mentalhealthmonth. We are happy to connect you not only to our staff, but the multitude of compassionate colleagues and resources in the Haymarket-Gainesville area.

Esther Boykin is a marriage and family therapist, CEO of Group Therapy Associates in Haymarket, and author, her simple yet effective tips and philosophies on mental health and relationships have been featured in MindBodyGreen, HitchedMag, Redbook, and a variety of other digital, print, and radio media outlets. 44

Unique approach for c-section delivered babies By Christine Craddock

Visitors to Novant Health Haymarket Medical Center might not feel the immediate anxiety that usually accompanies walking into a hospital. The design, environment, and decor are humble and calming from the first steps inside the door. This was all done to enhance the experience of patients for each type of treatment offered here. And now, one aspect of childbirth at the Haymarket Medical Center will be even more special and unique for the patients who choose the newest hospital in the area to deliver their babies. In March, Doctor Eugene Louie-Ng, founding doctor at Novant Health Lake Manassas OB/GYN, delivered the first baby at the hospital by “family-centered C-section” with the help of neonatologist Dr. Shantharama Karanth, anesthesiologist Dr. Ivan Harangozo, and labor and delivery nurse Renee Hammond. In the process of a standard c-section, the mother is separated from the birth and the baby is taken to the

nurses until the doctors are finished with the surgical process. The mothers don’t often get to hold their newborns until 20 to 30 minutes after birth. With this new family-centered c-section, the newborn baby is placed immediately onto the mother with skinto-skin contact. It has been well documented in books and studies that the precious moments right after a child’s birth can have lasting effects on the child Doctor Eugene Louie-Ng, founding doctor at Novant and the mother. Some say Health Lake Manassas OB/GYN that the immediate skinso grateful for Dr. Ng and his team for to-skin contact helps for an easier making this happen for us.” transition for the baby from a fetus Dr. Ng says the idea came about to newborn and even helps stabilize from a combination of OB doctors their respiration, temperature, and and neonatal nurses weighing the pros stress level.

imbo’s Grill and Bar breaks every mold when it comes typical bar food and atmosphere. The bar is decorated with a modern look and clean lines while also representing the sports scene with flat-screen televisions featured on each wall for game days. High top bar tables line each side while a three-sided bar centered in the room allows for open conversation between visitors. The dining room continues to defy the typical bar scene with sleek design of square black tables and chairs along a wall of windows where diners can get a glimpse of the mountains. But even more unique is Jimbo’s approach to the type of food served here. The owner, James Kontzamanys, goes above and beyond to offer not only delicious but also healthier options at his restaurant. The menu may look simple but the ingredients simply are not. The main categories feature appetizers, specialty burgers, wings, salads, wraps and sandwiches, “dawgs,” entrees, and desserts. Jimbo’s specialty burgers are created

Jimbo’s Grill & Bar

using a half pound of “Virginia grass fed, 100% hormone free, dry aged Black Angus beef” and are served along with a metal basket of handcut fries. While the burgers are a standout item, so are the fresh wings. In 2014, named Crowd Favorite Winner by Northern Virginia Magazine, these tasty choices include tangy mustard, honey barbeque, thai chili, dry rub, buffalo, spicy barbeque, spicy dry rub, and sriracha. Even the salads have a unique feature to them; one of the favorites is the Greek Grilled Chicken which combines the flavors of cucumber, tomatoes, peppers, feta, onions, and kalamata olives that are harvested from family-owned olive groves in Greece. Other salads offered include a bacon and blue cheese wedge and BLT shrimp salad. Additional specialty items on the menu are Jimbo’s Signature French Dip served with tender roast beef, gourmet hot dogs with various toppings named by the city that makes it popular, and entrees like the filet mignon, salmon, ribeye, full and half rack of ribs, as well as shrimp and pasta choices. Many of the regulars appreciate the themed weekly promotions including Prime Rib night on Tuesdays, Dawg Mondays, and game day specials. Diners looking for a new place to try, where the food is unique and delicious and the staff will remember you by name, should visit Jimbo’s for a night out. The patio is open and pet-friendly. Jimbo’s Grill and Bar is located at the end of a small row of shops at 7901 Heritage Village Plaza in Gainesville which is right off of Heathcote Boulevard near the intersection of Route 29.
