Larry Nordvig became the first candidate to throw his hat in the ring for the soon-to-be vacant post representing District 2 on the Powhatan County Board of Supervisors. Nordvig announced on Tuesday, Dec. 9 that he intended to run for the office in a special election to be held on Feb. 10. He said he was recently confirmed as the Republican Party candidate in the race. The seat is currently held by Jason Moore, who has resigned effective Feb. 8 because he is running in the special election for the Powhatan County Commonwealth’s Attorney position on Feb. 10. Nordvig said he is

he holiday greeting “Merry Christmas” was a source of contention at the Powhatan County School Board meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 9. Seven county residents spoke during the meeting in support of a request to put the phrase “Merry Christmas” on the marquees in front of Powhatan County’s six schools instead of or in addition to phrases such as “Happy Holidays” or “Winter Break.” The charge was led by Christopher Smith of Powhatan, who had already spoken in front of the school board in October to bring the issue to the members’ attention and request a change. He first brought the issue up at the board’s workshop and meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 14.

Christopher Smith, right, and Charles Simons both spoke at the Dec. 9 Powhatan County School Board meeting to lobby to have “Merry Christmas” put on the schools’ marquees.

At the Dec. 9 meeting, Christopher Smith spoke again during both public comment periods to make his point. He presented a petition he said had 248 signatures of Powhatan County residents in support of putting “Merry

Christmas” on the marquees and said the list was “growing very rapidly.” “No we do not have all 28,000 residents’ signatures, but guess what, they are still being signed and a lot of people just don’t know enough about it yet,” he

said. Christopher Smith said he came “in the name of Jesus Christ” to speak as an ambassador in defense of him. “America is a country see MARQUEE page 2A

Community cookbook dishes up Powhatan By Laura McFarland News Editor

S

ome of Powhatan County’s best kept culinary secrets have been revealed with the release of the Coalition of Powhatan Churches’ new “Blessed Recipes” cookbook. Released this month, the 536-page spiral cookbook features more than 1,000 recipes from local men and women, Patsy Goodwyn, director of the coalition, said. “They are from gobs and gobs of people. They are all from about 20 churches in the counties. They are from family and friends. It was a great success as far as getting recipes,” she said. Once people heard that the cookbook is a fundraiser for the Ruby Leonard Food Pantry Building Fund, they PHOTO BY LAURA MCFARLAND were happy to help, she said. Nancy Alexander and Patsy Goodwyn hold Goodwyn said she took a leap of faith and ordered 500 copies of the Coalition of Powhatan Churches’ copies of the cookbook to sell. Selling for $22, it’s a great new “Blessed Recipes” cookbook. The cost is $22.

last-minute gift for Christmas, she added with a smile. A big part of the appeal of “Blessed Recipes” is the cross-section of Powhatan County culinary traditions it captures. Submissions ranged from original recipes to old family favorites. The cover image designed by retired Powhatan High School art teacher Carol Baltimore captures the feel of the book, with several dishes sitting next to a window that looks out on a country church, Goodwyn said. Several recipes were submitted in honor of loved ones who have passed but the memory of them and their food lives on, Nancy Alexander, a member of the Coalition, said. She entered several recipes including one that was her mother’s version of rolls. “Her rolls were always perfect.” She submitted two recipes on behalf of her daughters, including one for cornbread that she sometimes takes to see COOKBOOK page 7A

where its people have the freedom to express their beliefs. But I find it very, very, very disturbing that the more our country embraces different aspects of the ways of other countries’ lifestyles, laws, beliefs or moral behavior, the more it becomes a priority to the way we as Americans live, which also includes putting Christianity in a bubble,” he said. The United States is a Christian nation, Christopher Smith argued, adding that he didn’t see anyone stepping forward from another group to fight for different holidays’ representation. His comments were followed by those of six more individuals. Charles Simons of Powhatan said that he isn’t going to tell anyone what to believe in or say, so he doesn’t see “why somebody should tell me I can’t say certain things or believe in certain things.” He said he grew up saying “Merry Christmas” in school and he doesn’t want his children to “have somebody tell them what they can and cannot believe in.” John L. Tuttle of Powhatan said that historically students and teachers nationwide have celebrated the Christmas season by decorating classrooms, having Christmas trees and learning traditional carols for the annual Christmas program. He argued that the Supreme Court “has acknowledged that the First Amendment’s establishment clause does not require school officials to suppress seasonal religious expressions.” He also said that members of other religions have the freedom to come to the board to talk about their religions and he wasn’t there to condemn them. “The will of God, he does not throw his will, it is free of choice. We want the church to do their business, which is to make good people and bring them up morally,” Tuttle said. “We want the law to protect us to do that, and that is the bottom line.” During the first public comment period, Lelah Smith of Powhatan said that the school’s winter break, which runs from Dec. 22 to

Jan. 2, was built around Christmas, not other holidays. She pointed out that it is not built around Hanukkah, which this year runs from Dec. 16 to 24, or Kwanzaa, Dec. 26 to Jan. 1. “You see no one here fighting to change the date of your holiday break. Even they respect that Merry Christmas is not promoting religion,” she said. “You are not making a reference that would persuade someone to follow beliefs of Christians.” She suggested a solution of having “Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays” on the marquees. She brought pictures of marquees from three of the schools to show that the 30-word greeting would fit in the allowed spaces. After the board did not take any action during the meeting, Lelah Smith spoke again during the second comment period, at one point becoming emotional. “We are so worried about offending people. What about us? We are Christians. Merry Christmas is for us and you are taking that away,” she said. Mary Smith of Powhatan said she is a staff member in the school district and had not received a message saying it was OK for her to say Merry Christmas. Courtney Harding of Powhatan said “I believe and I have always been taught that you say Merry Christmas and happy holidays to not offend anyone. I will teach the same to my very loud children, who are in the back.” Steven Ridgeway of Powhatan noted that the school board started its meeting with a prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance, “hich has religious connotations.

He spoke of his own memories growing up and said it “would be nice if children could have those things today.”

School board reactions After Christopher Smith first raised the issue at the board’s workshop and meeting on Oct. 14, several board members voiced appreciation for Smith’s passion and willingness to stand by his beliefs. James Kunka, who represents District 2, brought it before the board as a discussion item at the Oct. 28 workshop. Board members came to an agreement that for the sake of inclusiveness, even addressing the three biggest winter holidays – Christmas, Kwanzaa and Hanukkah – specifically presented too many potential pitfalls and was an opportunity for some group to be left off. At the Dec. 9 meeting, Kim Hymel, District 5, clarified that the board had said during the discussion on Oct. 28 that staff should be notified they were allowed to say Merry Christmas. Superintendent Eric L. Jones agreed, saying there is no prohibition against anybody wishing anyone a Merry Christmas and that there are many Christmas celebrations going on now. He said that this message had been communicated to the principals to pass on to staff but he would make sure it went out again. The four board members present thanked everyone who came to speak. Valarie Ayers, District 3, was not present. Sammy Frame, District 4, said it was “heartening to

see members of the community so involved in our system.” “We very much appreciate public participation – for folks really caring about what is going on in our community. I think that matters a great deal,” he said. Kunka also thanked the speakers, saying it is an appropriate time to discuss it. He pointed out that a majority of Americans identify as Christians and that while he is in that group, “you have to put yourself in the position to represent everybody.” Hymel thanked the speakers and wished everyone a Merry Christmas. Chairman Rick Cole, District 1, said that the people who spoke making their viewpoints known “goes as much toward promoting your viewpoints as anything else. If you are silent nobody knows, nobody can appreciate your viewpoints and you have no chance of influencing anyone.” After the meeting, Jones said his guidance to school staff has been that “individually you can extend holiday greetings in any way you wish to people.” Holiday decorations and symbols can be found throughout the schools and both religious and secular music selections are being performed by students, he said. “Certainly we want to recognize the season. I think we do a good job of balancing that without repressing anyone’s ability to express a religious or nonreligious viewpoint,” Jones said. He added that the school board did discuss the issue and make a decision and the schools will abide by the members’ determination.

perintendent, reminded the four board members present that Lynch’s presentation would cover a few isolated objectives from each of the district’s four goals to give them an idea of what is being done to document and chart progress on the plan. Valarie Ayers, who represents District 3, was not present. The first goal is that all students will achieve their academic potential in order to graduate from high school and obtain success in college, the workforce or the military, Lynch said. This is a constant focus for the school and has many components that help make it happen. Lynch pointed to efforts such as curriculum ebooks being used in core and electives courses, developing accelerated classes in Pocahontas Middle School and Powhatan Junior High School, and having more AP classes in Powhatan High School with fewer prerequisites. “We are developing pathways and have elaborated on those pathways with our teachers,” she said. The high school’s graduation completion index tied to its accreditation is

Adopting the Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Years 2016-2020. After a brief discussion in the workshop, the board voted in the meeting to adopt the CIP in order to set the district’s priorities for its own sake and for the Powhatan County Board of Supervisors. Jones first presented an updated CIP to the board at its workshop on Nov. 11. He said the items on it are prioritized based on need throughout the list except for a lease purchase payment for buses. “That is really an obligation that we have to do, but we didn’t want to move the bus garage down any further,” he said. “We felt like school buses are certainly a need we have as well in addition to that lease purchase payment. The first priority on the

list is a recommended renovation and addition to the Powhatan Junior High School to turn it into a middle school and close the existing Pocahontas Middle School. The transportation garage and maintenance shop replacement that had been on the top of the list for a number of years moved down to the second place spot. Other items included in the list of 11 CIP projects include purchasing new buses and support vehicles, replacing or renovating the school board office and renovations or upgrades needed at the other schools in the district. Approving revised school board policies. At its workshop on Nov. 11, the board discussed proposed protocols regulations that include revisions to the agenda preparation and dissemination and school board bylaws. At the time, Kim Hymel who represents District 5, questioned the opportunities for board members to add agenda items. When it came up for a vote at the Dec. 9 meeting, she again argued that she thought the policy was “controlling and it is not being transparent not allowing things on the agenda.” James Kunka, District 2, disagreed, saying there are three possible methods to add an agenda item listed in the policy and they are in order of transparency. “The most transparent being that these are identified in public at a board meeting for inclusion at a subsequent board meeting, where all the public has an opportunity to react, to do some research and to give input,” he said. “The closer we get to the deadline, the less transparent the process becomes.” Kunka said he thought the rules are “reasonable and adequate for getting any item discussed” and

that there needs to be “some measure of control or we would be discussing everything at every meeting, and that is not in the best interest of the students.” Sammy Frame, District 4, agreed with Kunka, saying he felt that anything can be brought to attention in the meetings. In his eight months on the board, Frame said he hadn’t had “anything not appear on the agenda following due process. It seems to me these policies work and I support them.” The policies were approved in a three-to-one vote with Hymel the only one voting against. Considering a resolution from the Virginia School Board Association. The VSBA has asked school districts to adopt a resolution that concerns funding of public education in Virginia, Jones said. The board could change the wording how they want before adoption, Jones said. It would be an opportunity for Powhatan County to lend support and send a message to “legislators about some of the needs public education has in the state and some of the things that have been done over the last several years to take away or hurt funding for public education.” Kunka and chairman Rick Cole, District 1, brought up questions on some of the resolution’s wording to make it more clear. At Cole’s suggestion, Jones said he will bring the resolution to an upcoming meeting with Pat Weiler, county administrator, and Carson Tucker, chair of the board of supervisors. Handing out several recognitions of students and staff. The school board recognized the following individuals and groups: The entire district re-

phones, having monthly safety committee meetings, reviewing the parent pick up procedures every year and upgrading radio communications in buzzin systems. The fourth goal is that students will benefit from ongoing, up-to-date communication among the division, schools and community stakeholders, Lynch said. She pointed to efforts such as a new website, Board Docs for school documents, a school messenger system, the Virtuoso Grade Portal, required teacher websites for elementary and middle school teachers, My Big Campus and a superintendent Twitter account. “We are making sure we really stay on top of trying to find the best way to communicate because things are changing,” she said. The Twitter account, which is the newest effort, has 48 followers, Jones said. Other issues brought up during the school board workshop and meeting include:

92 and the percentage of students who earn advanced studies diploma is at 51 percent, Lynch said. She laid out a strategy to have all students reading on grade level by the end of third grade using the Virginia Tiered System of Supports, the Benchmark Assessment system, the Leveled Literacy Intervention for struggling readers and required guided reading groups. The district is behind on textbook adoptions due to budgeting and conservative use, so she will lead a textbook inventory analysis with school administrators. New this fall is a Positive Behavioral Instructional Supports program, which deals with behavior issues that can keep children from learning. The program will work to remove “inconsistencies that may confuse children when they go from class to class,” she said. The second goal is to have students learn from and interact with high quality professionals, Lynch said. The district will look at underrepresented populations in teachers and students and compare those with Equal Employment Opportunity Commission data, survey other Region 1 divisions regarding their strategies on how to increase diversity of staff, put direct postings on university websites and attend job fairs. Another strategy the district has is to “continue to provide a competitive compensation and benefit structure to attract high quality professionals,” she said. The third goal is that students will learn in safe, clean and positive schools, she said. Each school will continue to implement safety procedures such as having a crisis management plan and frequently holding school drills, purchasing the School Dude app for

church suppers. “I usually don’t have any to take home.” Alexander said she has already tried a few of the recipes in the book and they were really good. She cooked Arlene Booker’s recipe for Parma Chicken last week and loved it. “I think it is a great cookbook. It is one of the best I have ever seen,” she said. There is nothing better than a church cookbook, Goodwyn said, because they are “tried and true” recipes with simple ingredient lists and instructions. “Some of the churches have done them. This is more of the community of Powhatan churches doing this together,” she said. “That is what makes it unique. We have all submitted recipes from the different churches.” Father Walter Lewis, pastor of St.

John Neumann Catholic Church in Powhatan, said he submitted several recipes to support the building fund. One of the recipes was a favorite of his, a Coconut Cream Pie he loves because it is delicious and decadent. “It is not one of those you can eat on a regular basis, but when you do it is a real treat.” Another entry was a dish he calls Scallops with Apples, which he came up with while on a beach trip. “The crisp tart flavor of the apples and the sweet flavor of the scallops are incredible together,” he said. Lucy Ann Cella of Powhatan entered more than a dozen recipes, including several that were her mother’s such as Mother’s Bridge Salad . Cella said she reads cookbooks like some people read books because they are interesting to her. With this cookbook, she likes the little notes some of the recipes have. They range from a simple note saying something reheats well in the

microwave to one talking about a blue ribbon the dish one at a state fair. The “Blessed Recipes” cookbook costs $22 and is on sale at Plaza Pharmacy, Powhatan Pharmacy or by calling Goodwyn at 804-892-3163. Ashley Rissmeyer

Cookbook stirs Christmas memories By Laura McFarland News Editor

F

or some families, certain Christmas traditions are nonnegotiable. Presents are opened at a certain time (leads to the Christmas Eve versus Christmas Day debate), the Nativity Story is read, everyone’s favorite holiday movie (“Christmas Story,” “It’s a Wonderful Life,” “Home Alone,” etc.) is played, and Christmas carols are sung. It can be a truly magical time even if you did the same exact thing last year … and the year before that. The reason? Christmas traditions are a kind of glue that makes an already special remembrance into one of the most amazing times of year for many people. Giving and receiving presents can be a blast. The Nativity Story never loses its power. Don’t forget “How the Grinch Stole Christmas!” And caroling depends on who is singing. For me, one of the best traditions about Christmas is the big holiday meal. Growing up, Christmas dinner was the same every year, and if you

tried to change it there would be trouble. There was the year that one of my sisters convinced Mom that she should try a yam recipe with nuts and apples instead of candied yams with marshmallows. The result? Disaster. Never again, my other sister and I vowed. Aunt Paula, who is gone now, made the most delicious corn casserole – seriously, melt in your mouth good. Every time that recipe comes out of the cupboard, it brings a smile and a memory of a loved one no longer with us. My grandmother is still here, but dementia is taking her from us slowly. She used to make a baked macaroni with egg mixed in and a delicious layer of cheese on the top. Absolutely amazing down-home cook.

Of course, Mom’s pumpkin pie can never be beat. It is so simple; it is perfect. Those dishes will be in Texas without me this year, but what started this mouthwatering train of thought was the Coalition of Powhatan Churches’ new “Blessed Recipes” cookbook. The 536-page cookbook features plenty of simple, down-home recipes that make a Texas girl feel right at home in Virginia. The best part was knowing that proceeds from the jampacked $22 community cookbook will go toward the Ruby Leonard Food Pantry Building Fund. The second best part was reading through and finding recipes such as Chocolate Decadence Cake (six ingredients), Tres Leches (six ingredients)

and Lemon Chess Pie (six ingredients). But the bonus part of reading through the 1,000-plus recipes was noticing the few that had little notes. The personal notes were the most touching. Sherry Elwell’s Macaroni Pie recipe was dedicated in memory of Sara Edwards. Lucy Ann Cella said the Easy Rice Casserole is her family’s favorite comfort food dish. A note on Irma L. Arritt’s Fresh Apple Cake says it was given to her by her late sister-in-law, whose “infectious laugh” is still missed. Every year around this time, people start complaining about the pounds they are putting on because they are eating too much. Let’s be clear: Eating the equivalent of a small child’s weight in carbohydrates and sugar will do that. But perhaps there is a reason why no matter the good intentions we can’t quite say no to that second helping of our favorite dish beyond the fact that it tastes absolutely amazing. Maybe part of us realizes that a meal shared is a memory shared, and some of them are really worth savoring. Bon appétit.

Leave behind lasting legacy of compassion By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist

T

he holiday season is a time to reflect on the past, remember the ones we loved and loved us, and the people who truly made differences in our lives. I suppose it’s a sad reality that some people go through their entire lives touching few and simply going through the motions of their daily interactions with their fellow men and women. And, then, there are those who touch everyone they meet and leave a legacy of compassion when they depart, never forgotten and often remembered on occasions like this. Like many people, I was lucky enough to live close to Eleanor and Wilton Tenney. Their home was a perpetual ball of energy with students

coming and going at a frantic pace. Eleanor taught school at Patrick Henry High School and Wilton was a biology professor at the University of Richmond. Both possessed a love for photography that propelled their lives into a mystical search for the perfect photo, or technique to enhance it. Both won numerous awards in local photography shows and their work has a signature style that reflects their dedication and devotion to the art. Wilton and Eleanor transferred that love of photography to the many students they mentored in a small darkroom located in their house. They provided cameras to those who couldn’t afford them, and encouraged beginning photogs to reach beyond their preconceived boundaries. They gave back to a community in ways that resonate worldwide today. Who

knows how many people passed through that door where safe lights were the norm, but the darkroom was always busy. Wilton and Eleanor, conversely, were never too busy to help with a problem or explain a better way to achieve the desired result. Eleanor would buy and pass out cameras to her students, while Wilton toted his trusty Hasselblad to Ashland to shoot team photos for the yearbook. It’s hard to say just how many people passed through Wilton and Eleanor’s house over the years, but, among the numerous future doctors, lawyers and other professionals and even a Pulitzer Prize winner, there was me. I’m only one insignificant graduate of the school of Wilton and Eleanor, but an appreciative recipient of that honor. Others have achieved much more, and many work today because of

what they learned at that tiny house on Cutshaw Place, but none are more appreciative. I write this with full recognition that many will recognize and relate to this story with fond memories and admiration. Often, the ones who accomplish the most in life are the people most unaffected by accolades or recognition. But, it soothes me to think that Wilton and Eleanor must have taken great satisfaction in the successes of the number of people they touched in their lives well lived. Their legacy thrives as the folks they mentored mentor others, and I can’t help but amaze at the infinite number of photographs taken in the years since their passing, each one with a connection to that tiny darkroom … and Wilton and Eleanor Tenney.

Christchurch 65 Blessed Sacrament 39 In what can be aptly described as a “hangover game,” the Knights came out flat against an athletic Christchurch squad less than 24 hours after dropping a heartbreaker to Amelia Academy. Blessed Sacrament shot less than 30-percent from the field and scored only 18 points in the second half, helping the defending VISAA Division II state runner-up Seahorses sprint away with a 61-39 victory. For the duration of the first half, it didn’t appear as though the Knights were suffering any ill symptoms from the twopoint loss the previous night. When the buzzer sounded at the end of the

After slaying Seahorses, Knights are 4-1 Lady Knights fall to Amelia Academy, bounce back against Christchurch Seahorses By Mike Schoeffel Sports Writer

The bad news? The Blessed Sacrament girls’ basketball team lost their first game of the season last Tuesday night by a wide margin to an Amelia Academy team loaded with talented athletes. The good news? They didn’t have to wait long to redeem themselves. They were back at action the following night, at home at Parker Gym against Christchurch. The Knights avoided a two-game skid by pummeling the Seahorses 43-20 behind 17 “She’s a big part points from Abby Sill of what we do. and six rebounds from She’s put in a lot Corinne Anderson. of work and it’s Christchurch missed its first nine field goals, really starting to allowing the Knights to pay off.� jump out to an 8-1 lead they would never relinJenny Pruett quish. The Seahorses’ shooting woes were a BSH head coach main theme throughout on Abby Sill the night: they finished 6-of-55 from the field (10-percent). After the game, Blessed Sacrament head coach Jenny Pruett talked about the importance of using the loss against Amelia Academy as a learning experience and parlaying it into a victory against Christchurch. “You learn a lot from a loss,� she said. “We watched some film today [of the Amelia Academy game] and the girls were able to see some of the things they were doing wrong. It was important for them to come out strong today, and that’s exactly what they did.�’ The Knights were at their strongest during the

second quarter. They led only 8-5 at the beginning of the period, but went on a 16-1 run over the last six minutes that buried the Seahorses for good. The offensive surge was a perfect lesson in basketball democracy, as five different players – Brieanna Zimmerman, Ann Marie Kemp, Abby Timmons, Sill, and Anderson – scored points for the Knights.

She’s put in a lot of work and it’s starting to pay off.� With an 18 point lead established, all the Knights had to do over the final two periods was continue their steady play and avoid throwing the game away. That’s precisely what they did, outscoring the Seahorses 19-14 and escaping to the December night with their fourth victory in five games.

The Powhatan Today PHS/BSH Preaseason Tip-Off Classic OK, so it’s not an actual event as of yet. But here’s a reasonable argument for why an annual preseason basketball game between the county’s two high schools would be a worthwhile undertaking By Mike Schoeffel Sports Writer

A few months ago, when interviewing Blessed Sacrament athletic director Luke Bobbitt for an article about the Knights upstart field hockey program, an interesting topic bubbled to the surface: the prospect of Blessed Sacrament and Powhatan High School meeting in an athletic competition of some sort. It’s an idea that, at first glance, seems admittedly absurd, considering Powhatan (approx. 1,400 students) dwarfs Blessed Sacrament (127 students, grades 9-12) in terms of enrollment. The massive discrepancy in enrollment alone might be enough to keep both schools from even entertaining the thought of the Indians and the Knights going headto-head anytime soon. But if it approached in the right manner, it’s not as outrageous an idea as it seems, and there’s reason to believe that a game between these two Powhatan institutions could be a definitive success. To make it work, the right sport would have to be chosen, and a few can be eliminated right off the bat based solely on the numbers required to field a team. Football seems out of the question, because, being 11-on-11, the

Knights would have far more players going both way than Powhatan (Powhatan had 46 players on its roster, Blessed Sacrament had about half of that), which would unfairly tilt the advantage in the Indians favor. That same lack of athletic depth is a reason baseball and softball likely wouldn’t work, either. Field hockey wouldn’t pan out because Blessed Sacrament’s program is too young – 2014 was its first season of competition, and none of the 14 players on the roster had ever played the sport before this season. Soccer is a definite no because Blessed Sacrament’s team is co-ed while Powhatan High divides its teams by gender. Tennis could work, though it’s more of a niche sport and therefore wouldn’t draw much of a crowd. The same goes for cross country and golf (and Blessed Sacrament often doesn’t have the numbers to field a golf team). That leaves basketball, which may

Every five years, host an alumni game. Turn it into an event the county can get excited about.” be the perfect sport to stage a match-up between the two schools. Why? First of all, Blessed Sacrament typically offers only three sports in the winter: boys and girls basketball, and swimming. So unlike spring – and to some extent, fall – the already limited pool of athletes isn’t being divvied up between multiple

sports in the winter. Secondly, athletic depth isn’t a necessity for success in basketball. Unlike football or baseball/ softball, a basketball team can be competitive with as little as five good to
