By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – The Powhatan County Board of Supervisors agreed last week on the $47.5 million budget it will advertise to the community as it moves forward in the budget process for fiscal year 2016.

County administrator Pat Weiler had proposed the budget, which has revenues and expenditures matching at $47,499,440. The board agreed at its budget workshop on Monday, March 30 to move ahead with those amounts.

POWHATAN – The Powhatan County Board of Supervisors and School Board took a more detailed look last week at how the county could pay for a restrained five-year capital improvement program.

Using information from a joint meeting between the supervisors and the Powhatan County School Board, Pat Weiler, county administrator, gave presentations to first the supervisors at their workshop on Monday, March 30, and then both boards at a joint meeting on Wednesday, April 1.

Weiler came up with options to discuss the top two priorities for each board plus a joint project.

Taking comments from a joint meeting on March 24, Weiler based the projections on a list of projects that reduced the original estimated $66.6 million down to a smaller selection with a price tag of almost $54 million.

The CIP projects on this reduced list featured a new communications system and a sally port on the courthouse as the

county’s top projects; a renovated Powhatan Junior High School and mechanical equipment replacement in Powhatan Elementary School for the school district’s priorities, and a joint garage as a fifth item.

Weiler laid out ideas for how this reduced CIP could be paid for using 100 percent and 50 percent of increases from new construction, personal property tax and sales tax.

In her explanation, Weiler showed the available cash the county would have from fiscal years 2017 to 2024 to pay debt service on any bonds they issued. The money for this would come from reduction of debt service, savings from closing Powhatan Middle School and increases in revenue.

She then laid out three possible options on how those figures could be applied. These are not the only possible options, she pointed out.

Weiler’s presentation at the joint meeting updated some figures from the supervisors’ workshop and offered side-by-side see CIP page 4A

Board looks at buying a new fire tanker

By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – The Powhatan County Board of Supervisors heard a recommendation last week on the lease purchase of a $500,000 fire tanker for Huguenot Volunteer Fire Department.

During the board’s workshop on Monday, March 30, Taylor Goodman, chair of a committee that worked on the project, explained to the board the process and reasoning behind a request to lease purchase the $500,000 fire tanker for Fire Company 2. It would replace the 1992 model the station is currently using.

The county determined that it would be fiscally prudent to make a down payment of $125,000 on the fire tanker and enter into a $351,236 lease purchase for a total cost of $476,236 for the Fire Tanker and total equipment cost of $23,764, he said.

When the committee first asked for proposals from companies, they came in tens of thousands of dollars over the budgeted amount of $500,000, so the committee spent about 18 to 20 hours going line by line on every single item working with those vendors to find price savings, Goodman said.

“After it was all done we actually brought the price of the vehicle down by somewhere between $70,000 and $80,000,” he said.

Other business handled at the workshops included: Discussing a courthouse evaluation application that assesses its compliance with the current safety and

is advertised but cannot go above it.

At the request of the board, Weiler showed them a more detailed breakdown of county employees per capita and per 1,000 people and compared them to other counties.

Larry Nordvig, who represents District 2, had wanted to see how many of the sheriff’s department employees were actually on patrol.

The breakdown showed 21 full-time equivalent positions on patrol, 12.3 in

dispatch, four in animal control and 22.5 in all other positions.

At a joint workshop with the Powhatan County School Board on Wednesday, April 1, the two boards received a different breakdown sent by email from Chris DeHart, undersheriff, to the supervisors and

Weiler.

That document listed 22 patrol deputies out of 37 full-time sworn staff, including the sheriff. The other 15 positions that aren’t listed as patrol deputies are the undersheriff, chief deputy, courts and civil process, patrol administration lieutenant, investigations, training first sergeant, patrol first sergeant and school resource officers.

In comparison, Goochland County had 22 on patrol out of a total of 58.25 positions; New Kent, 18 out 55.1; Amelia, eight out of 39, and Cumberland, 12 out of 27.

David Williams, who represents District 1, and Barry Hodge, District 3, were in favor of the county administrator’s proposed budget without the funds for deputies.

In a previous meeting, Larry Nordvig, District 2, expressed his support of adding the deputies because of an emphasis he thought should be placed on public safety.

He started another discussion at the March 30 meeting saying the sheriff’s office was still a central priority to him and especially the amount of officers on patrol.

“Safety is absolutely paramount. If you don’t have it, you don’t have anything,” he said.

security guidelines contained in the Virginia Courthouse Facility Guidelines.

Teresa Dobbins, clerk of the Powhatan County Circuit Court, submitted the idea and had mentioned it to the supervisors at a recent budget presentation.

Charla Schubert, the county’s director of finance and administration, explained the reason behind the application on March 30.

If the Department of General Services determines that the courthouse facility is noncompliant and cannot be feasibly renovated to correct such noncompliance, the board of supervisors could then adopt an ordinance allowing the courts to assess an additional $3 per court case, Schubert said.

The $3 would be issued as part of the costs in each civil action filed in the district or circuit courts in Powhatan County and each criminal or traffic case in its district or circuit court in which the defendant is charged with a violation of any statute or ordinance.

“We would hold that money in order to use that money for the renovations and security upgrades that they feel the courthouse needs,” she said.

Weiler said the maximum fee to the county for this evaluation would be $1,700.

Listening to a presentation on a job classification and compensation plan for the county.

Mark Knowles, principal consultant for Condrey and Associates, gave a presentation on the job classification and compensation plan.

The firm was hired to review and revise the cur-

rent classification system and pay plan for all employees, collect salary data and produce a recommended pay plan based on job analysis, job evaluation and wage survey data.

Most organizations will undertake this sort of review about every 10 years on average, Knowles said.

“The primary goal is to make sure that your job descriptions are up to date and reflective of what people are actually being asked to do so they understand what is expected and you as stewards understand what you are asking from them,” he said.

The goal is also to make sure the money tied to those jobs is internally equitable and externally competitive, he said.

After listening to the presentation, David Williams, who represents District 1, requested a workshop to delve into the subject more.

Hearing public comments related to a request to make lacrosse a school sponsored sport at Powhatan High School.

During a joint meeting between the supervisors and the Powhatan County School Board on Wednesday, April 1, two adults and three students connected to the Powhatan Lacrosse Club asked the boards to consider the sport become a recognized offering through the high school. According to the speakers, the program has 116 youth participating today.

After reviewing additional data and talking to several sheriff’s office employees, he said he still felt those officers were a need because there is not enough coverage. However, he pointed to an alternative of paying those added positions using savings from the retirement at the end of this term of Sheriff Greg Neal.

A new sheriff will draw down less salary than someone who has been on the job several years, he pointed out. While he didn’t want to propose micromanaging the sheriff’s department, he saw an opportunity for the department to use those savings

and it took a lengthy discussion before everyone was clear on the amounts.

Some members thought Powhatan was required to put up $473,602 to pull down the state money. In actuality, Powhatan County has to put up $287,286 to the state’s $186,316. he boards did not discuss the cost of additional targeted adjustments for cafeteria workers at $20,336, which are reflected in the line items as a transfer to the Food Service Fund and had been discussed previously.

from one position to fund another one or two salaries.

“I am in favor of trying to find ways without spending new money to fund needs. For example, attrition and efficiency, that is the best way to fund anything,” Nordvig said.

Chairman Bill Melton, District 4, said he could agree with that suggestion.

Weiler informed Nordvig the board of supervisors annually adopts a staffing plan, which in-

cludes the number of positions and what they are.

That means the board does have the opportunity to mandate that use of funds if it wanted. That staffing plan can also be amended by the board during the rest of the year.

Nordvig said it is something to keep in mind for an extreme situation but reiterated he doesn’t want to manage the sheriff’s office.

Other budget items handled at the workshop included: Hearing the results of a conference call regarding interpretation of the school board’s budget.

During both the supervisors’ workshop and the joint meeting with the school board, a discussion was held on the results of a conference call held on Thursday, March 26 with several county officials and representatives from the House Appropriations Committee and the Department of Education.

The call was held to clarify an interpretation of new legislation about pay raises for school employees. The House and DOE representatives confirmed the school board was correct in its interpretation that the commonwealth will pay Powhatan schools $186,316 if the district provides for an average 1.5 percent pay increase for all employees.

Even with the conference call, some board members remained confused about what the actual county match would be,

board last week, Hodge and Williams said they were glad to have the clarification but that they question how muddied the situation became because of lack of understanding of the intent of this legislation and the interpretation of it.

Williams said they need to have a conversation with their elected officials about clarity and transparency to make sure the way legislation is being represented is how it actually works.

Nordvig said he was visiting the General Assembly when this bill was being debated and passed and it was presented as a match.

He agreed it should be a priority going forward to make sure the General Assembly understands local governments in multiple counties are getting burned by the “poorly written” legislation and might even be implementing it incorrectly and possibly illegally.

Clarifying how people can calculate figures presented by county staff.

Weiler addressed questions about county projections versus how much an actual budget turns out to be.

For instance, in the fiscal year 2015 adopted budget, the almost $6.2 million in personal property tax revenues was more than $1 million over the adopted

figure for FY 2014, $5.1 million, she said. The county now has estimated figures of almost $6.5 million in personal property taxes for FY 2015 when it ends, which is an increase of another $303,000 over the adopted amount, for an overall projected increase of $1,355,280.

Weiler has said in the past the projections are based on historical trends and are conservative.

Actual figures from previous years show they can vary widely from year to year. The actual personal property taxes were almost $6.8 million in FY 12; $5.6 million in FY 2013, and $6.2 million in FY 2014.

The FY 2016 personal property taxes revenues proposed by Weiler are almost $6.8 million, which is an increase of $596,960 over the FY 2015 adopted budget.

The charts also detailed how to calculate the real estate tax revenues and local sales and use taxes in the same way.

Explaining why FY 2015 estimated expenditures are more than revenues.

Weiler said there had been questions coming in to county staff about why the estimated FY 2015 general fund revenues are $46,669,580 but the estimated expenditures are $47,135,385. That is a difference of $465,805.

Weiler explained that while revenues are $981,120 over budget, there is an adjustment for $31,587 in revenue amendments and $1,415,338 in planned capital maintenance.

The board’s unofficial policy to keep a 15 percent general fund balance and put anything over that toward capital maintenance reserve projects has been a good move and worked well for the county, Weiler said.

Hearing answers to questions the board asked at previous budget meetings.

County staff keeps a running list of questions the supervisors have asked during budget meetings and Weiler presents the answers as the data is available.

She showed a chart with a comparison of the agencies that support the county’s aging population who see BUDGET page 8A

Option A does not meet the requirement of avoiding an increase of real estate taxes, Weiler warned.

It assumes all the debt would be issued in FY 2017 for the reduced list of projects. If that happened the debt service would start in fiscal year 2018 and because of lack of available cash, a real tax rate would be necessary.

With 100 percent of the revenue increases factored in, the tax rate would still increase from 90 cents to $1.006 in fiscal year 2018 but then be reduced to 98.2 cents in FY 2019 and 94.5 cents in FY 2020 as more funds became available. It would be back to 90 cents in fiscal year 2021.

With 50 percent of the revenue increases, the tax rate would go to $1.038 in FY 2018 and gradually decrease each year until it was back to 90 cents in FY 2023.

Under Option B, Weiler said she projected what

she assumed were the school district and county’s top priorities – the junior high and communications system – having bonds issued in FY 2017 and the other projects following in fiscal year 2019. The communications system was the county’s top priority because the manufacturer has put the county on notice it will no longer be supporting the system, she said.

In the scenario with 100 percent of revenues, the tax rate in FY 2018 would increase to 96.9 cents but it would decrease back down to 94.6 cents in FY 2019 and 94.5 cents in FY 2020, Weiler said. It would be back to 90 cents in FY 2021.

With the 50 percent scenario, the tax rate would raise to $1.001 in FY 2018, gradually decrease each year and be back to 90 cents in FY 2023.

With both of those options, Weiler pointed out more cash would become available in FY 2020 that could go toward debt service on other capital projects.

“What you have is a cash flow problem from 2017 to 2020 and then starting in 2020 you can issue additional debt,” she said.

POWHATAN – One person was killed int he early morning of Sunday, April 5 in a single vehicle crash in Powhatan County.

Sgt. Steve M. Vick of the Virginia State Police said the crash occurred at 12:43 a.m. in the 1500 block of Walkers Ridge Road.

A pickup (possibly a Ford) was traveling north on Walkers Ridge Road when it ran off the road to the left, struck a parked 2010 Toyota Corolla and continued on, striking a tree. At that point it caught fire and became fully engulfed.

The driver, who was the sole occupant of the pick-up, died at the

Option C calls for not issuing any bonds in FY 2017, doing them all instead in FY 2018. The county would be saving in those two years toward what it would begin paying in debt service in FY 2019.

With 100 percent of the revenues used, the tax rate would be raised to 91.1 cents in FY 2019 and 94.5 cents in FY 2020 before returning to 90 cents.

With 50 percent of revenues, the tax rate would go to 97.5 cents in FY 2019 and gradually decrease until it was back to 90 cents in FY 2023.

This option assumes 20-year, level principal payments with no delay in principal payments, which are very conservative.

There are other options the county could discuss with a financial officer so the projects would start before the debt was issued or the county could only pay interest on the bonds, Weiler said. Those options would increase the overall amount the county would pay.

“You would have to weigh the cost-benefit,” she said.

Weiler said the options use very conservative growth numbers in the increased revenues.

scene. The name is being withheld pending notification of next of kin.

The remains were transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for autopsy, examination and positive identification.

If anyone has any information on the pickup, they are asked to call State Police at 804-553-3445.

Speed is considered a factor in the crash. Trooper W. Boelt is investigating the crash. The crash remains under investigation.

Units from Powhatan Fire and Rescue ‘s Huguenot Volunteer Fire Department, Powhatan Volunteer Fire Department, and the Powhatan Volunteer Rescue Squad responded.

At press time, the driver of the vehicle still had not been identified.

“I have a conservatively optimistic viewpoint for Powhatan County as far as new businesses are concerned,” she said. “I believe that we will see new business growth here in Powhatan County.”

Weiler said the county could also decide to use capital maintenance reserve to offset years where cash flow is a problem to avoid tax increases.

Members of the two boards talked about projects going into the future and not wanting to tie future boards’ hands on what they can do.

Eric Jones, superintendent of Powhatan County Public Schools, offered that the mechanical equipment replacement at Powhatan Elementary School could be pushed back a year or two to alleviate the debt service burden.

Delaying replacing the system, which is 30 years old, is not without risk but the system also could be replaced in sections, Russell Wilson, the school district’s director of facilities, said.

Carson Tucker, District 5, questioned whether the $34.2 million estimated cost for the renovated junior high school was realistic or would actually come out significantly

higher once construction was complete.

Wilson said he doesn’t have the dollar amounts on him but that Pocahontas Elementary School, Powhatan High School and Flat Rock Elementary School all came in at or below the county’s estimates.

“I am proud to say we have a good track record in the projects I have been involved in,” he said.

Chairman Bill Melton, District 4, commended Weiler, Jones and the county and school staff for compiling all the numbers.

Tucker said he liked Weiler’s cautious optimism and that he is proud of the county staff for their work and the members of the two boards willing to wade through it all.

He said seeing and working through the figures they provided is the kind of “data-driven decision making we have all said we wanted. I feel that we are within this close of being able to close this issue and do what needs to be done and not do violence to the tax rate and not do violence to the people who are on fixed incomes.”

self-titled “dog untrainer” meets owners who are at the end of their leash, literally. They are plagued with animals who bite, bark incessantly, fight with other animals, chew up furniture, pee everywhere but where they are supposed to and run away.

Left unchecked, owners frustrated and unsure how to handle these behaviors sometimes feel they have no choice to either get rid of the animal or euthanize it, Hodge said.

About 60 percent of the clients she sees have at least once considered euthanasia for their pets because of the seriousness of their behavior problems, she said.

“I love what I do. It is extremely rewarding to be able to save dogs and keep them in the environment they are intended to be in, which is a happy one,” she said. “Since I deal with so many things nobody else wants to deal with, that is what keeps me always wanting to do it.”

Hodge, the owner of K9 Consultants Inc., Jemi Hodge and Associates, has been working with animals about 45 years, since she started work at a veterinarian office in high school and a natural ability to deal with behavioral issues became apparent, she said.

She was vet assistant for 25 years and managed three vet hospitals parttime, but training has always been her first love.

She admits she never read a training manual. Everything she knows is based on experience and “her gut.”

With K9 Consultants, Hodge or one of her three employees in different parts of Virginia work with trouble pets and their owners, many of whom have already gone through one or more animal trainers without success, she said.

The three trainers she em-

ploys – Julie Serfass, Terry Chalkley and Beth Walker – each have specialties, whether it is teaching the classes on kid and stranger safety, working with owners with multiple pets or ones with small children.

“These clients don’t really care if they can sit, stay and roll over. What really matters to them is they are 100 percent reliable,” Hodge said.

It doesn’t always work, she said, acknowledging there have been animals she couldn’t save. There are some dogs that are simplly not trustworthy, although they appear well behaved much of the time.

Even if they are only sporadic, aggressive outbursts can present a real danger to other animals or humans.

Soft spoken philosophy Hodge’s philosophy is that animals need to be taught to understand their place in the family. This means instilling the good manners in them you would want to see in any person in your home.

If a human visitor came into your home and climbed on your bed, stole food, chewed and destroyed your shoes and made a mess on the carpet, would you ask them back, Hodge said.

“Sometimes we let our dogs get away with things we would never let a human do in our home,” she said.

Hodge doesn’t raise her voice, point her finger, yell, punish or use food rewards in training, she said. She also doesn’t dwell on the past, as when a dog is abused or comes from a shelter.

“If we tend to coddle them because of those reasons you have your dog in the first place, we tend to increase the severity of those issues,” she said.

All too often, people are accommodating animals rather than teaching the animals to accommo-

much as she is the animals, she said.

Jean Tino of Powhatan County had Hodge visit her home in October because Beau, a rescue dog she took in, and Jasper, her cat, were too much to handle. In addition to Beau being really wild and not listening, the two pets did not get along.

Hodge held individual lessons with Beau but also had Tinor put the dog and cat in the bathroom together and close the door. She had a can that made noise, and every time one of the animals started making a threatening noises, she shook the can and said “Leave it.”

The dog and cat are not best friends, but they are getting along better with increased exposure to each other, Tino said.

Tino said she was seriously considering giving Beau back to the rescue but now she couldn’t imagine life without him.

“I rescued Beau and I guess Jemi rescued me,” Tino said.

without fearing the dog will start eating without permission.

Smith brought Tucker to Hodge because the dog refused to listen to its owners.

Although Hodge mainly goes to work with clients and animals in their homes, she took Tucker into a

weeklong boot camp training session.

The difference when he came back home was amazing, Smith said. After a little more work when he came home, Tucker now follows commands regularly.

“He is a smart dog. I think if we had had him over there a couple months sooner he would be even better,” Smith said.

Whispering commands is one technique Hodge uses, born from the way her mother said she would handle her daughter as a toddler when she threw a tantrum.

Instead of yelling or trying to speak over her little girl, Hodge’s mother would whisper, “I cannot believe you are doing this.

Why are you doing this?”

The little girl had to stop crying to hear what her mother was saying.

“I do the same with dogs. The quieter, the calmer, the more relaxed you are around animals, the quieter, the calmer, the more relaxed they are around you. We address it head on and start with kindness,” she said.

County offers ways to be involved

By Laura McFarland News Editor

W

hen you are at the funeral of a person who has done a great deal for a community, you usually know based on comments from people who knew and admired them and the words they use to describe them: selfless, dedicated, committed. Those words speak to the mark they left on their community.

Powhatan County recently lost one such person in the form of Rovenia Vaughan, who died on March 11.

Attending her funeral on March 18 and listening to co-workers, friends and family talk about her, in some ways, seemed like viewing a lifetime achievement award ceremony. Ms. Vaughan left her mark on the community, and, even if they didn’t always say it, people noticed.

Those thoughts were still pretty fresh in my mind when a resident spoke during public comments at a joint meeting between the Powhatan County Board of Supervisors and School Board on Wednesday, April 1.

The remarks alluded to not only asking the county to encourage residents to get more involved but to accept their help when it is offered to save on county resources.

During the board comment period that followed, board of supervisors chairman Bill Melton, who represents District 4, pointed out that the county loves it

when residents get involved and encourages it. One outlet he highlighted – one many people did not really realize is an option – is the boards and commissions the county has and needs to fill on a regular basis.

It is common to hear calls to get involved by running for elected office or even something as simple as coming to a meeting. In reality, those two are on the far ends of the spectrum from each other.

Some elected offices involve a commitment of time that is simply beyond many people. Attending meetings to listen to elected officials discuss the county business can help citizens stay informed. But is that involved?

If you go to the Powhatan County website, www. powhatanva.gov, and look under boards and commissions you will see what can probably be described as a happy medium.

The site contains a long list of opportunities where you can become involved in shaping life in the county.

There are three boards with vacancies that need to be filled: a representative for the poor population of the county for the Community Action Agency Advisory Board, Extension Leadership Council, District 4, and a position on the Library Board of Trustees to fulfill the unexpired term of Ms. Vaughan.

With one of those, the Community Action Agency Advisory Board, the board of supervisors have brought up for months the need to fill that position and expressed frustration that it still sits vacant.

Another four boards have terms that are expiring soon: positions on the Economic Development Authority, Powhatan Anti-Litter Council, Social Services Board and both Districts 1 and 3 on the Extension Leadership Council.

Some of those boards have members who have served for years and fully intend to keep doing so, which is wonderful. But there are vacancies that are calling out for people who care about their community to become involved.

The descriptions of the boards and what they do, the specifications for the positions, when and where they meet and applications may be found on the same website. It isn’t inconceivable that at least one of them might fit into your schedule and interests.

It would be wholly untruthful to say that these boards and commissions are the only ways to get involved in Powhatan County. There are so many rich opportunities through volunteering, church activities, youth programs and more that it can be easy to forget or even disregard these as an option.

When some people say they don’t have the time, they are being quite literal.

But, if you call Powhatan County home and have been thinking of ways that you could leave a mark on the place you live, this is one opportunity among many to consider.

m I smarter than a fifth-grader?

Well, no. At least not every Tuesday night when my kids and I review the latest version of their spelling list.

Like other parents, I’m often intimidated by my children’s homework assignments. It’s a subtle fear that comes with parenthood when children ask you that question that you can’t answer.

I’m not sure how that moment of realization occurs, but it’s a real end of innocence when we finally realize our parents do not know the answer to every question and do not possess solutions to every problem that could possibly arise.

With two fifth-graders and a sixth-grader in my house, I often feel inadequate when it comes to algebra problems or scientific theories.

I’m also constantly astounded how

much sooner my kids are exposed to learn complicated subjects than I was.

And, for those of you who think the rigor in schools has declined in past years, let me offer a few examples of just how difficult the subject matter is.

Back to Tuesday nights and preparing for a word study test on Wednesday for my fifth-graders.

To my generational friends, word study refers to an old staple of education: the spelling test.

On most weeks, I can spell most of the words my kids are studying, but, often, I’m not sure of the meaning of some of the multi-syllable works.

Don’t believe me. Let’s take a look at last week’s list and keep in mind, this is the word study for fifth-graders.

In the sub category, we have subcommittee, subconscious, subdue and subjugate. It shouldn’t surprise you that I missed two of the first group, subjugate and subconscious.

I was stumped again when I arrived at succinct and succumb, two words that challenged both my spelling and comprehensive skills.

By the time I got to susceptible, I was really getting nervous.

“It’s spelled just like it sounds, Dad,” one of my children exclaimed.

I tried to hide my inadequacy as we continued to study the list, but, I must admit, I had no confidence that my kids would do well on the ensuing test. After all, I had missed at least four words of 20 in my initial testing, and they had missed even more.

On test day, what a great surprise. One missed two words, the other didn’t have a single miscue on his test. Proud parent?

You’d better believe it ... and astounded too.

The point of this exercise is not to display my obvious lack of academic prowess. To the contrary, I’m impressed by the rigor of my children’s lesson plans, and the complicated theories and facts they tackle

in our local schools on a daily basis.

It’s easy for those from past generations to form a skeptical opinion of today’s educational systems.

The huge amounts of money and regulation sometimes evoke a sense of melancholy in older generations who think no one could get quite the education they received in school.

Truth is, the curriculum is preparing our children to meet real world demands for an evolving work force.

The tough spelling words, the advanced math and critical thinking exercises are preparing our children to compete in a worldwide market.

For me, it’s back to homework and some pesky science lessons.

“Dad, do you know the three parts of an atom?” one child yells from a cluttered dining room table full of notebooks and study guides.

I’m pretending I didn’t hear the question!

Powhatan Today, April 8, 2015

Science, imagination celebrated at Maker festival Contributed Report The Powhatan Public Library and Virginia Cooperative Extension’s Powhatan office drew a great crowd to the community’s first Maker festival.

In spite of the wintery weather on Feb. 21, more than 725 people visited the library that day and it was estimated that at least half came to take part in the event. The event was a joint collaboration of the library director, Powhatan 4-H extension agent and Virginia’s 4-H Maker, Paul Lambert.

“I’ve never seen such community support for a Maker festival,” said Lambert, who has helped develop festivals in Hanover and surrounding areas.

The Maker approach used activities that allow youth to do the making and creating, so once participants got started they didn’t want to leave. Families came and stayed, moving from one activity to another.

For the event, Lambert provided a 3-D printer, wind turbines, K’nex, LEGOs, 3-D

Support for the Free Clinic Contributed Report The Richmond Memorial Health Foundation has continued its financial support to the Free Clinic of Powhatan with a major two year grant to help with prescriptions, medical supplies and operating costs, according to Connie Moslow, executive director of the clinic.

This continued support validates the value of having a clinic that serves the low income, uninsured and underinsured residents of Powhatan County. The Free Clinic provides free medical, dental, mental health, women’s health services and patient co-ordination care to this population.

Richmond Memorial Health Foundation’s mission envisions a healthier future for the communities they support and fund.

Their wish is to improve human conditions and provide relief from suffering. They realize that a healthier community inevitably leads to a better quality of life.

Powhatan is a healthier community thanks to the generosity and support of the Richmond Memorial Health Foundation, Moslow said. This help is instrumental in supporting the programs, operations and patients of the Free Clinic.

A Powhatan Earth Day Celebration will take place from 4 to 7 p.m. on April 22 on the Courthouse Green. There will be children’s activities, Earthfriendly demonstrations and exhibits, music and good food.

Environmentally-

paper airplanes, and Snap Circuit kits to allow the public to experiment.

Through a Virginia 4-H Foundation grant, Powhatan 4-H office also provided 30 take-home kits for workshops offered, including solar-powered boats, robots and flying disks. A Chesterfield robot club also brought a robot and allowed children to operate it by remote control. The club leader, a Powhatan resident, wanted to generate interest locally to start a new club. Another local volunteer, Arthur Jenkins, provided milling equipment to demonstrate metal working.

Cathy Howland, Powhatan 4-H extension agent, had previously attended a Maker training and wanted to offer an event in Powhatan. When she approached library director Peggy Martin with the idea, they agreed to give it a try with the library offering a host site and staffing assistance. Both agreed the festival would be a way to “test the waters” to determine future interest of Maker activities on an ongoing basis. Neither the library

nor 4-H had previously tried a Maker event.

An opportunity presented itself when reading specialists from the Powhatan County Public Schools voiced an interest in the seventh grade classes visiting the library. Arrangements were made for the students to tour the library in November.

They had the opportunity to complete a Maker project with Howland using duct tape, LED lights and their creativity. The activity was a success.

The library also repeated the tours and provided an art project for eighth-graders in December. A total of 630 students from Powhatan Junior High School participated during this partnership. The school district served as a sponsor of the Mini-Maker Festival as a result.

More than 20 adult and teen volunteers manned stations around the library on the day of the event. The Friends of the Library also provided food for those helping with the four-hour event. Volunteers from 4-H

clubs, the home schooling community, Friends members, public schools and the adults who came with the children pitched in to assist as needed.

Although Maker space events are not a new concept for libraries, Martin and Howland agreed that this project was a great improvement of an existing idea and an opportunity to offer joint STEM programs for the Powhatan community.

A grant offered through the Science Museum of Virginia recently opened new possibilities for STEM and Maker education in Powhatan. After attending a training workshop at the Museum on March 25, three library staff members and one from the extension office returned with new ideas and equipment to create additional STEM and Maker programs.

Volunteers interested in working with Maker programs may contact the Powhatan Extension Office at 804-598-5640 or Powhatan Library at 804-598-5670.

support I have received during this time. BSH is a family, my family, and I am grateful for how it has shaped my life,” she said.

Bonday brought a refocus on academic rigor to the school, revising and revamping the curriculum to “take it from a solid academic program to a stellar one,” Liz Whalley Buono, chair of the school’s advisory board, said.

“She instituted a really great series of offerings around Advanced Placement courses, increased academic participation in various conferences and offsite opportunities, and brought in updated educational tools and online resources for all the grades,” Whalley Buono said.

The school started in her first year with four AP courses and now has seven, Bonday said.

As chief school administrator, Bonday also brought an economic disci-

pline to the school that it needed, Whalley Buono said.

“She instituted a lot of changes at the school. Not all of them were easy.

But she helped us transition to a much better place with enrollment up and the future looking bright. The entire BSH community is very grateful for her service,” Whalley Buono said.

Bonday said she was proud of that track record at the school. Under her leadership, there have been about $500,000 in facility improvements, which have consisted of replacing two roofs, the renovation of the library and the Hopewell Barr Alumni house and the new Parker Gym HVAC system installation.

Strides have been taken to make sure the staff is certified and licensed through the state and that people are being offered sufficient opportunities for professional development to recertify every five years, she said.

Other accomplishments included better collaboration between Blessed Sacrament and other diocesan schools in the Greater Richmond area; a sig-

nificant amount of financial resources spent on upgrading the technology infrastructure and making technology accessible to students, and new curriculum materials introduced throughout the elementary school program.

Bonday said she will continued to serve out the school year with dedication and professionalism and finish this academic year strong. She plans to put in place “several exciting and collaborative planned changes for next year that will help us pursue the mission of BSH for our children.”

Whalley Buono will work with Frankie Conway, the superintendent of schools for the Diocese of Richmond, to plan for a search and transition in leadership.

The timeline for hiring a new chief school administrator will depend on the candidate pool, Whalley Buono said, but she hopes they will have the person who is the right fit for the school in place in time for the new academic year.

Powhatan bounces back against Bird In shadow of first loss, Indians return to winning form

By Mike Schoeffel Sports Writer

Last week, the Indians faced a mini-crisis after being shutout by a powerhouse Atlee squad that featured a firethrowing freshman pitcher by the name of Peyton St. George.

But instead of letting the loss send them Powhatan 17 into a tailspin, L.C. Bird 4 the Indians re-

covered in a major way, pulverizing L.C. Bird 17-4 in a game that somehow lasted all seven innings despite the lopsided final score.

Harley Conner stole the offensive spotlight once again, going 5-for-6 with 5 RBI. Conner’s virtuosic performance was reminiscent of the heavyslugging form she displayed over the first two games of the season, when she tallied 10 RBI in 10 innings against Hopewell. Lauren Ratliff also was a tour de force with the bat, finishing 3-for-5 with 3 RBI. Powhatan collected a season high 20 hits. Each Indians’ starter reached base at least

once.

All things considered, it was a bold response to the first setback of the season, not to mention a useful remedy that dulled the painful memory of the Atlee loss.

“I’m pleased with the way we bounced back, particularly on offense,” said Powhatan head coach Marie Crump. “I thought the girls swung the bats well and did a great job of responding. I was glad to see them get back on track.”

The Powhatan (6-1) pitching foursome of Valarie Fridley, Mason Basdikis, Conner, and Ali Celiberti held Bird (14) to only four hits all day. The

latter trio - Basdikis, Conner, and Celiberti - reached peak efficiency in the last three innings, striking out seven of the last nine Skyhawks hitters.

Basdikis struck out the side in the fifth. Conner did the same in the sixth. Celiberti mowed down the first batter in the seventh, then forced the final two into weak groundouts.

Crump said she knows what she has in Fridley and Basdikis – the Indians’ main pitching duo this season. But she was pleased to see two of the lesser-utilized hurlers on the staff, Conner and Celiberti, essentially dominate the Skyhawks’ lineup over the final two frames.

“Like I’ve said all year, our staff is very young,” said Crump. “But all of our pitchers work very hard in practice as well as in games and so far we’ve seen that hard work pay off.”

The Indians’ pitching was indeed solid, but the offense may have been the story of the day.

Powhatan stormed out to a 6-0 lead behind two hits and three RBIs from Conner. With that early inning offensive maelstrom, the game seemed destined for the mercy rule.

Indians whitewash defending state champs Indians shut out Western in what could become a signature victory

By Mike Schoeffel Sports Writer

The Powhatan High School boys soccer team scored a major victory on April 2, dominating defending Group 3A state champion Western Albemarle 3-0.

The Powhatan 3 win Western 0 pushed the Indians record to 3-0-1 and sent a jolt of excitement through the team and the student body alike – a jolt that lit up social media, as Twitter and Facebook erupted with proclamations of joy for hours following the big

win.

The Indians were led by first half goals from Dalton Barr and Cody Moss. Will Hayden scored the lone goal in the second half, effectively clinching a win that, by season’s end, may be a signature one for the Indians.

“We came out of the gates fast,” said Powhatan head coach Jeff Poston.

“We were in front of their goal within a minute and bounced one off the cross bar. I think that opened [Western’s] eyes up a little bit. That let them know our boys were ready to play.”

Powhatan broke the scoreless tie less than five minutes into the contest on a rocket shot from Barr.

About four minutes later, the Indians struck again on a header from Moss.

For the next 67 minutes of play, neither team found the net. But Hayden

changed that trend with about four minutes left, beating the keeper to extinguish the Warriors’ chances at a comeback.

“The first two goals sort of put it in Western’s mind that we could play with them,” said Poston.

“And the third just knocked the wind out of them. I saw their heads drop and I knew we had them right where we wanted them.”

The win did wonders for Powhatan’s morale and comes at a pivotal moment in the year. The Indians are looking to make an early season push to convince themselves – and others – that they are indeed state-level contenders.

The loss drops Western to 3-2 and undoubtedly sent the Warriors into a mild-to-moderate state of panic. But Poston doesn’t

believe for a second it will be a down year for Western. In fact, he’s convinced the Crozet-based school will be competing for another state title by season’s

end.

“They beat Blacksburg If it turns out the War- already this year, which is riors haven’t in fact lost a who they beat in the state step, the win is a highly championship last year,” encouraging sign for Poston’s squad. see BIG WIN page 3B

Fueled by one big inning, Western downs Powhatan Six freshmen see playing time in Indians’ defeat

By Mike Schoeffel Sports Writer

On a beautiful spring evening at Baltimore Field, the Indians fell to undefeated Western Albemarle 7-5.

PowWestern 7 hatan Powhatan 5 was led by two RBI from Brennan O’Neil. Cody Willis and Andrew Llewellyn added one a-piece. Western’s Derek Domecq did an outstanding job in relief, striking out nine and allowing only two hits over 5 1/3 innings of work.

It’s the second straight game in which the Indians competed well, only to be undone by one subpar inning. Against Monticello on March 31, a five-run bottom of the sixth broke a 2-2 tie and ultimately sank the Indians. Two nights later, in what seemed like a case of déjà vu, the Indians watched the Warriors ride a fiverun fourth inning to remain perfect on the season.

Head coach Gregg Conner said that while watching his team give up the big inning twice in three nights was frustrating, he still has faith in this group. He believes that with every growing pain comes a lesson, and that every learning experience is a step toward becoming a more competitive team.

“We’re getting closer to where need to be,” said

Conner. “These last two games it’s been one bad inning that’s killed us. We just need to eliminate some of the mistakes and stop shooting ourselves in the foot.”

Against Western, those mistakes came in two main forms: base running miscues and walks.

Twice in the first two innings, an Indians runner was tagged out after getting into a rundown. The first was caused by a runner advancing to an already occupied third base, thinking the runner in front of him had been sent home.

The second came on a quick pickoff to first base.

Both mistakes occurred while the Indians were threatening to expand an early-inning lead.

The walks, on the other hand, were scattered throughout the course of the game. There were eight total, with three crucial ones in the fourth inning adding fuel to the Warriors’ five-run rally.

“Those are some of the things we need to correct,” said Conner. “Those are things that we are going to have to continue to get better at as the season moves along.”

Unlike the Monticello game, Powhatan held a lead against Western. The Warriors’ Steve Mangrum (a Virginia Tech commit) hit a laser shot of a homerun in the top of the first, but the Indians rallied in the bottom of the inning, loading the bases against Western starter Sam Hearn. Hearn proceeded to belt O’Neil in the head, bringing home Logan Amiss to knot the game at one.

Moments later, courtesy runner Hunter Bonton scored a passed ball that skipped to the backstop. Willis followed with a sharp single past the first baseman to bring the tally to 3-1.

The Indians would tack on another run in the bottom of the second when leadoff hitter Ryan Brinkley walked and came around to score on an Andrew Llewellyn groundout.

Brinkley’s run pushed the lead to a comfortable (but far from safe) 4-1.

On the hill for Powhatan was freshman Trenton Tiller, who was making his first varsity start.

The wiry ninth grader lasted two innings, giving up a solo home run in the first and working his way unscathed out of a jam in the bottom of the second.

He handed the ball over to fellow freshman Hunter Montgomery, a recent JV call-up, in the third.

Montgomery (who wore Hunter Langston’s number 4 due to a lack of jerseys, bringing about a fair amount of short-lived confusion) struck out the first varsity batter he faced. He allowed no runs in the third, but lost his command in the fourth, walking two batters and loading the bases before being pulled in favor of sophomore Adam Seal.

By the time the inning was over, the Warriors had batted around to take a 6-4 lead. In the seventh, a sacrifice fly by Henry Kreienbaum increased the Western lead to 7-4.

Despite Montgomery’s fourth inning struggles, Conner highlighted the positive aspects of the

freshman’s first varsity appearance.

“He was all around the zone, but I thought he came in and threw well,” said Conner. “There’s room for improvement, but for a kid making his first appearance in a varsity game I saw some good things.”

The Indians did their best to muster a last-ditch comeback in the bottom of seventh. They shortened the Western lead to 7-5 on an RBI single by O’Neil. But with two outs and the tying run on first, Jeremy Mayo struck out swinging on a high fastball to send the Indians

into Spring Break with a 1-3 record.

In the face of the loss, youth and inexperience continued to Powhatan’s main storyline. Against Western, three freshmen (Tiller, Montgomery, and Matthew Church) and one sophomore (Seal) spent time on the mound. Three more freshmen (Brad Painter, Willis, and Amiss) were in the starting lineup.

With that pervasiveness of youth and inexperience being injected all over the field, veterans like Ryan Brinkley and Llewellyn will be expected to play the role of elder

statesmen, helping the underclassmen adjust to the increased challenges of varsity baseball.

“We need them to keep their composure and lead by example,” said Conner of his veteran leaders.

“We need them to stay focused and involved mentally and show the younger kids what it’s all about.”

The Indians are on Spring Break this week.

They will travel to Orange County on April 14 before returning home for backto-back games against Thomas Dale and Charlottesville on April 15 and 16.

BSH falls to undefeated Southampton Academy Knights’ winning streak ends at two games

By Mike Schoeffel Sports Writer

The Blessed Sacrament baseball team was fresh off a doubleheader sweep of Massanutten Military Academy when it took the field against Southampton Academy on March 31.

That SatSA 15 urday afterBSH 1 noon double dip aganst MMA gave the Knights their first two wins of the season, and a certain sense of momentum heading into the first conference game of the year.

Southampton, however, offered a stiffer test than MMA. The Raiders came

into the game undefeated (8-0), outscoring their opponents by a combined 36-10. They would leave with their record still unblemished after downing the Knights 15-1 in six innings. Southampton’s offense was powered by Jackson Smith, who finished 3-of-4 with a double, a triple, and four RBI. Southampton starting pitcher Andrew Lowe was one of the better hurlers the Knights have faced this season. He threw five shutout innings, striking out seven and allowing only three hits. Lowe was relieved by Matt Rose in the bottom of the sixth, with the Raiders possessing a gargantuan 15-0 lead.

The Knights quickly loaded the bases against the new arm with a single by Ryan Cary, a double by Ryan Davoud, and a walk

by Sean Stanley. Stuart Howard brought home Blessed Sacrament’s first run of the game with a single, but his RBI was a mere pebble in an oceanic deficit.

Blessed Sacrament wouldn’t plate any more runs before the end of the inning, and

the game was called due to the mercy rule.

One of the unsung factors in the game’s outcome was the fickle wind that made tracking down fly balls an utter nightmare.

Wind gusts reached as high as 31 miles per hour, whip-

ping sand into the eyes of players and fans alike. The Knights’ defense was particularly affected by the wind, as at least three balls – including what would have been a routine infield pop up – were blown off course so drastically that

the fielders weren’t able to track them down.

The Knights have this week off for Spring Break, but will host two games next week: Tidewater Academy on April 14 and Brunswick Academy on April 16.

PJHS baseball doubles up Nottoway Contributed report The Powhatan Junior High School baseball team faced the Nottoway Cougars in a Southside Middle School Conference doubleheader on April 1.

After surrendering a lead off double in the first game and loading the bases Sarge Waters settled in and stifled the Nottoway offense. They managed

only one run on three hits and no errors. That would prove to be enough for PJHS and led to a shortened four inning game and an 11-1 final.

Papi Woodel led the Indians at the plate, going 2-for-3 and scoring three runs. Mongo Meador and Moose Sprouse also went 2-for-3 respectively with Waters 2-for-2 and Hawk Ritt and Skeeter McClellan 1-for-2 scoring twice

each. Lefty Cheatham closed the game in the top of the fourth retiring all three batters.

Game two saw the Indians bats explode for five runs in the first inning and seven in the second. PJHS’ stingy right handed hurler Catfish Woods struck out five of the six batters he faced, silencing the Cougars sticks. Powhatan fin-

Powhatan: are you ready to ride?

Fifth annual Powhatan Historic Bike Tour benefits Free Clinic of Powhatan Contributed Report Six years ago, a group of Powhatan bicyclists came up with an idea to organize a tour to not only showcase their county’s beautiful country roads, but, more importantly, to raise money for a worthy cause – The Free Clinic of Powhatan.

After months of planning, organizing and recruiting volunteers, the Historic Powhatan Bike Tour was created.

“The first year, the Powhatan bike tour had just over 100 participants,” Maureen Moslow-Benway, the tour co-director, said.

“The tour has grown each year and now has several hundred riders. Even better, over the course of the past four years, the bike tour has raised more than $25,000 for the Free Clinic.”

The course was selected with both safety and scenery in mind. Cyclists have their choice of three different ride lengths—31, 62 or 100 mile rides, all of which traverse bucolic country roads.

The Historic Powhatan Bike Tour begins with an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast at a popular Powhatan institution: The County Seat Restaurant located right in the heart of the Courthouse area.

One of the most unique aspects about the Powhatan Bike Tour is that the majority of the rest stops are located at special historic sites along the course.

For example, the riders’ first rest stop is at Mosby’s Tavern, a beautiful historic farm that was a meeting place for militia at the onset of the Revolutionary War. Ten miles later, riders can get food and drinks at Belmead-on-the-James, a former Catholic boarding school for African American boys established shortly after the Civil War. Belmead is currently listed as one of the nation’s most endangered historic sites and is located in an absolutely stunning location.

Riders continue to visit a number of other historic farm and plantation homes about every 10-15 miles

along the tour. Other Powhatan historic sites include Millview, which is owned

by Jeannette Ridings; Paxton, owned by Kevin Conner, and Chuck Urbine’s farmhouse.

The 100-mile “Century” riders venture into Amelia County as well. The final rest stop for the 100-mile ride is The Wigwam, a picturesque country estate built in the early 1800s by Virginia’s 24th governor, William Branch Giles.

Jake Berman, the co-director said that “even though the rest stops are located at unique historic sites along the route, what truly make them special are the numerous enthusiastic volunteers who man them.”

The stops are manned by the Powhatan, Huguenot and Amelia Ruritans,

the Powhatan Chamber of Commerce, the Free Clinic of Powhatan, Blessed Sacrament Huguenot Academy, the Powhatan Rotary Club and even the Amelia Chamber of Commerce.

He added that “one thing is for certain and that is they all take great pride in their rest stops.”

Connie Moslow, the executive director of The Free Clinic of Powhatan, advised that “The Free Clinic

provides medical, dental and mental health services to hundreds of low income, Powhatan adults, the vast majority work, yet cannot afford medical insurance.”

The bike tour has raised more than $25,000—all of which has put to good use., she said It’s not too late to register for this year’s tour.
