Christmas Mother prepares to step back By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – Christmas Mother Gayle Walters remembers being in tears much of the first day clients came to pick up gifts during the 2015 Christmas season. Like other members of the Christmas Mother Everyday Committee and the clients themselves, Walters said she was overcome by the power of the moment and how wonderful it felt to be part of it. “They were so grateful for what we were doing for them. We felt so blessed we could do it for them. That day was the first day I was involved in that and it was an incredible moment,” said Walters of Powhatan. In the almost one year since she became the 2015 Christmas Mother, Walters said has had many such moments. The Christmas Mother program does too much good not to have an abundance of fond memories, she said. Walters will officially relinquish her Santa hat when the 2016 Christmas Mother smiles and waves her way through the annual Labor Day parade, a Christmas Mother’s first official duty and introduction to the community. But the outgoing leader sees what is to come as a step to the side rather

than a step down. Like decades of Christmas Mothers before her, Walters will still participate via the Christmas Mother Everyday Committee, there to help her successor and carry on a mission that is bigger than any one person. “I am looking forward to being on the committee again and being back as

a worker bee as opposed to being the head of the program. I love the work that they do. I love the Christmas Mother program,” Walters said. Fran Carleton, 2014 Christmas Mother, said Walters brought a great deal of kindness and organization to see CHRISTMAS page 6A PHOTO BY LAURA MCFARLAND

POWHATAN – The Powhatan County Board of Supervisors was told last week that members will probably have some hard choices ahead with the county’s water and wastewater system if they want it to one day become self-sustaining. During a workshop on Monday, Aug. 1, the board listened to a presentation on the county’s water and wastewater system that explored the current use and funding of the county-subsidized service, potential ways it will be developed in the coming years and possibilities on how to pay for it. The presentation was handled primarily by Sheryl Stephens, senior community resource specialist for

Stephens made it clear that a great deal of work has to be done for the system to ever become selfsustaining. The board of supervisors hopes to one day overcome the fact that revenues don’t even cover operating costs, much less the debt service on the system. This means the system has to be heavily subsidized by the county’s general fund to the tune of about seven cents on Powhatan’s real estate tax rate, she said. “Real simply, you look at your revenue and is it is a few hundred thousand dollars a year, and your debt see CHOICES page 5A

Labor Day Parade seeks entries By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – The Powhatan Lions Club is gearing up for its fifth annual Powhatan Labor Day Parade and looking for businesses, groups and individuals who want to get involved. The parade starts at 11 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 5, with participants starting to line up at 9:30 a.m. at Fighting Creek Park. Booths will also once again be set up from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the Courthouse Green with a mix of commercial and nonprofit vendors. This year’s parade will feature everything from fancy floats to crowd favorites such as the Harley Davidson Club and Southside Shriner’s Mini vehicle assortment, which always brings the merriment. Parade chairman Allen Minter said entries have been slow coming in for both the parade and the vendor fair, but he is expecting that to start picking up soon. In a rural community like Powhatan County, the Labor Day parade is a big deal and a great way for businesses, political candidates and groups to get their name out, he said. “It gives them an opportunity to show off their antique cars, advertise their companies and demonstrate what they can do and how they want to benefit the county,” he said. One feature of the parade will once again be the introduction of the new Powhatan Christmas Mother in her first official duty in her new role.

The parade is entertaining for children who are in it as well as those on the side of the road, Minter said. “It is a way for us to make the kids happy. It’s the last cool thing they do before going back to school,” he said. Minter expects to have the Village Green packed with local businesses, artisans, craftsmen, food and franchise vendors. The entry fee for the parade is $20, while the cost for a booth on the Courthouse Green is $20 for nonprofits and $25 for forprofit groups. Registration is due by Monday, Aug. 29. Virginia Blood Services will hold a blood drive from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and people are asked to donate if they can. Summer months always see a shortage of blood because schools are closed and families go on vacation, limiting the number of blood drives and decreasing donations. People are also asked to bring their used, unwanted, old or new glasses and hearing aids of any kind, and place them in the donation boxes or hand them to anyone wearing a Lions’ shirt or cap. Additional entry forms can be obtained at New Horizon Bank, 2501 Anderson Highway. Powhatan Lions Foundation is a 501C3 charitable organization and all donations are tax deductible.

Powhatan woman accused of hit and run, child endangerment By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – A judge on Friday, Aug. 5, decided to send a case involving a Powhatan woman charged with hit and run and child endangerment to a grand jury for consideration of an indictment. Laura E. Brown, 31, of Powhatan was arrested on charges of hit and run, eluding arrest, and three counts of child endangerment, all felonies, as well as driving under the influence, a misdemeanor, in relation to incidents that occurred on June 11. Rob Cerullo, deputy commonwealth’s attorney, and Reed Amos, Brown’s attorney, questioned several witnesses during the preliminary hearing on Aug. 5 in General District Court. Afterward, Chief 11th District Judge Gravatt Mayo ruled there was sufficient evidence for all charges in the case to be heard by a grand jury on Oct. 11. Cerullo used the testimonies of several witnesses to create a timeline of events on June 11 that started at about 8 p.m., when Arthur Chadwick, president of Chadwick and Son Orchids Inc., was hit by a vehicle in the 900 block of Dorset Road while he was on his bicycle. Chadwick said he was on his bike traveling northbound on Dorset Road when a vehicle that also was heading north hit his handlebar, knocking him to the pavement. He said the accident caused scrapes, bruises and contusions, and the pain was such that he originally thought his pelvis had been broken. He was transported to the hospital, where an x-ray showed there were no breaks. Trooper W.M. Boelt with the Virginia State Police responded to the accident site and called an ambulance for Chadwick. Boelt said he got a basic description of the vehicle that hit the bicyclist and relayed that information so it could be shared with other law enforcement officers in the area.

Dennis Horner of Moseley, who said he has been friends with Brown’s family for years, testified that she came to his house that night. There was one other adult in the car, who was later identified as Kayla Rivenbark of Chesterfield, and Brown’s three children, ages 1, 2 and 5. Horner said he noticed damage on the passenger side rearview mirror of the vehicle and found Brown to be upset and shaking. He said she told him that she thought she hit someone on a bicycle. “I asked her, ‘Man or woman?

BROWN

Is the person dead?’ She said, ‘I don’t know,’ ” Horner told the judge. When Brown left Horner’s house on Westwood Pines Drive not long after, he said he called the Powhatan County Sheriff’s Office and gave them a description of Brown’s vehicle and the license plate number. Upon questioning, Horner said he saw Brown in the vicinity of the driver’s side but never actually saw her operating the vehicle. Deputy M.T. Boggs testified that he heard the call over the radio about the hit and run and then later heard dispatch relay the information to be on the lookout for Brown’s vehicle. At about 8:46 p. m., he spotted a vehicle that matched the description traveling the opposite way on Clayville Road and was able to identify the license plate number as the one given by

dispatch. He said he turned on his lights and siren, did a U-turn and pursued the vehicle, which drove on for less than a mile before turning abruptly into a gravel driveway. Following the vehicle into the driveway, Boggs said he saw the driver exit the vehicle and run toward a house. The driver, who he identified as Brown, ran onto the house’s porch and began banging on the door, Boggs said. When he apprehended her, he said she could barely walk, smelled strongly of alcohol, and had glassy eyes and slurred speech. When Brown was arrested, Boggs said he noted that the three children were all still secured in their seatbelts in the vehicle. Boelt, who came to the house where Brown was being held, said she told him she was not driving when the bicyclist was hit and did not answer questions about whether she had been drinking or the damage to the vehicle. In the statement Boelt gave on the criminal complaint against Brown, he said he found a passenger side mirror at the scene of the hit and run and was able to positively match it to the vehicle Brown was driving when she was arrested. Brown was taken to the sheriff’s office to administer a breathalyzer test, and her blood alcohol level was 0.17 percent, Boelt said. The legal limit in Virginia is 0.08 percent. Brown was arraigned on June 15 in Powhatan Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court and is being held at Riverside Regional Jail without bail. Cerullo said bail was not granted because Brown was already out on bond on pending charges in Chesterfield County of a second offense of driving under the influence.

JET program earns VACo Achievement Award Contributed Report On Monday, Aug. 1, the Virginia Association of Counties (VACo) awarded to Powhatan County the 2016 Achievement Award for the Junior Emergency Technician (JET) program. When appointed in December of 2014, Fire and Rescue Chief Steven Singer began a journey to help re-vitalize the membership of the volunteer fire and rescue departments of Powhatan County. With the number of volunteer members dwindling in the normal recruit demographics of late teens to early 20s, Singer looked to introduce a younger generation into emergency services. Current and past members of the volunteer fire and EMS departments worked together to form the JET program. The program brought together children ages 12 to 15 to get them inter-

ested in emergency services and volunteerism. The program has been successful since it was first organized, introducing teens and adults to emergency services and renewing interest from former members. “We are excited to announce the 2016 winners, and I want to thank all who participated,” said Dean Lynch, VACo executive director. “This is the 14th year of the achievement awards program, and we couldn’t be more proud of the innovative work done by our member counties. It seems we are faced with more complex challenges every year, but Virginia’s counties have found creative ways to overcome them.” Tedd Povar, associate director of the Virginia Institute of Government; William Quarles, former Goochland County supervisor; and Linda Lumpkin, retired

Equestrian Center holds its first Veteran’s Appreciation event on Saturday, Aug. 13, organizers hope the promise of an entertaining night out that also offers the chance to help others will have wide appeal. The event is one of two being held this week to benefit Lonesome Dove Equestrian Center (LDEC), a nonprofit organization that has offered therapeutic horseback rides for veterans since 2008. The big fundraiser, the Veteran’s Appreciation event, will be held from 4 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 13 at the Village Meadow, 3920 Marion Harland Lane, Powhatan. Admission is free, but a variety of games, activities, food for sale will help raise funds for the nonprofit. Southern States in Goochland County is also sponsoring a fundraiser at LDEC to benefit the nonprofit. An Equine Pasture Walk will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 11 at Lonesome Dove, 6137 old Buckingham Road, Powhatan. A $10 ticket includes a barbecue dinner and information sessions on pasture maintenance with three different speakers. LDEC executive director and founder Clint Arrington said he is optimistic about the new fundraisers, which will simultaneously raise money and awareness of LDEC and offer information and entertainment to the community. “It is good exposure for LDEC and will help raise funds to offset our costs, since we don’t get any money from the state or federal government. We do have to offset our

$60,000 a year budget. That is with no salaries,” he said of the volunteerrun organization. The Veteran’s Appreciation event on Aug. 13 is a new venture for LDEC, and one Arrington hopes will go well. From 4 to 6 p.m., a succession of well know Powhatan County figures will step into the dunking booth, including three members of the Powhatan County Board of Supervisors; Teresa Hash Dobbins, circuit court clerk; Sheriff Brad Nunnally, Jamie Timberlake, commissioner of the revenue; Larry Lyons and Carolyn Bishop. There will also be a raffle with prizes, and Jamie Timberlake will provide music from 4 to 6 p.m. During that time, people can pay to try their hand at a cornhole toss or a game that has them shooting basketballs from a saddle for the chance to win prizes. “It is not easy. I want them to get a feel for how it is for veterans who shoot baskets off of horses,” Arrington said. Arrington sounded particularly amused when he talked about having a “jail” at the event where people can have a warrant sworn out for someone. “We are going to have certain things people can get arrested for. Once you pay your bail to get out, you can file a warrant to have someone else arrested,” he said. From 6 to 9 p.m., the Flashback band will offer a wide variety of music from the oldies, Motown, beach, disco, funk, big band, swing, rock, and country music genres. People can bring chairs and blankets and enjoy the music under the stars, Arrington said. The event will also

The Master Gardeners recommend Dogscaping for pet owners who want to make their green space pleasing to the eye but also safe for their canine friends.

Dogscaping: the dog-friendly approach to landscaping By Virginia McCown Goochland-Powhatan Master Gardener

Oh Noooooo! If you have a dog and a lawn, you more than likely had an â&#x20AC;&#x153;oh noâ&#x20AC;? moment. Sometimes having a dog and a beautiful lawn and garden can prove difficult. Yet with â&#x20AC;&#x153;dogscapingâ&#x20AC;? you can have it allâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or at least a good part of it. Dogscaping is landscaping and gardening with an eye for how your dog uses outdoor space. Knowing your canineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behavior can prove helpful when it comes to setting up and planting your outdoor living areas. Work-

ing with, rather than against, your dogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural inclinations can save months and even years of frustration.

Canine Blockades â&#x20AC;&#x153;Blocking off perennial beds with a wooden waddle fence or decorative metal fence might deter dogs from running through beds,â&#x20AC;? recommends Grace Chapman, director of horticulture at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden in Richmond. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My dog runs at full speed and will run over anything in her way. I have found that if I plant a large obstacle in her way, she will run around it,â&#x20AC;? says Chapman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This can be formal, such as a knot garden or English parterre where boxwoods are protecting tulips and peonies, or a more informal curvilinear design.â&#x20AC;? Chapman recommends thoughtfully placing evergreen woody plants (conifers or broad leaf evergreens) to help safeguard perennials. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had two dogs that never really tried to get in the (koi) pond, just drank out of it,â&#x20AC;? says John Clark, a Goochland-Powhatan master gardener. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only thing I can suggest that may help is to set up a low rope barrier.â&#x20AC;? Landscape logs helped create a visual barrier, and the pondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edge was constructed with granite stone blocks.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dogs will still dig through hardwood mulch, but would be less likely to dig in gravel mulches,â&#x20AC;? Chapman says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the dogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safety, it is important never to use coca hull mulch as it is poisonous to dogs.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;They love to eat coco bean mulch because it smells like chocolate, and chocolate can be toxic to dogs,â&#x20AC;? warns Laura Thomasson, a volunteer with FLAG (For the Love of Animals in Goochland, www.flagpets. com). We want a safe and non-toxic environment for our pets, so special care and consideration needs to be given to hiring lawn services and with pesticide and herbicide applications. To keep lawns green and healthy, topdressing with compost and lawn trimmings is safe. If at all possible, avoid planting thorny, spiny, sappy and toxic plants. Never forget that even with all the best barriers and fences, a determined pooch may still reach your flower beds. So never ever set out poison for moles or

other rodents. The horror of a death from strychnine poisoning is something no pet or pet owner should witness or endure. Leaves of rhubarb, tomato plants, tulips, hyacinth, azalea, daffodil, crocus, and rhododendron are just some of the benign plants that could prove poisonous to your dog, says FLAG volunteer Darleen Morano-Brown. Lily of the valley, narcissus, morning glory, autumn crocus, sago palm, chrysanthemum, oleander, yew, and cyclamen should also be located with care. Extension Search (https://search.extension.org/), Cornell University (http://poisonousplants.ansci.cornell. edu/dogs/) and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (www.aspca.org) are excellent resources for identifying which plants are toxic and which are safe for pets.

If we create it they will comeâ&#x20AC;Ś Or maybe not. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I doubt that my dog would use (a designated digging area), but it is worth a try,â&#x20AC;? says Chapman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Help your dog have a safe, cool place to lay down,â&#x20AC;? advises Penny Pearsall of FLAG. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Create an area of fresh pine tags in a shaded area.â&#x20AC;? Adding a couple of treats or toys may encourage your dog to want and stay in that protected area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Limbing trees up a few feet can provide more yard space for dogs or a new garden bed for shady perennials,â&#x20AC;? says Chapman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, some trees look best in their natural habits with limbs touching the ground.â&#x20AC;? What about those urine bleached grassy areas in the yard? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Watering to dilute the urine right after the dog urinates will help with yellow spots in the grass,â&#x20AC;? advises Chapman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you monitor your dog when it goes out, you can keep a watering can handy to spot water.â&#x20AC;?

Citizens honored for saving woman

PHOTO BY LAURA MCFARLAND

Sheryl Stephens, far left, gives a presentation tot he board of supervisors on the issue of the county’s water and wastewater systems.

During a community night with the Powhatan County Sheriff’s Office held on Thursday, July 28, Sheriff Brad Nunnally, center, recognized DeMarco Harris and George Cox, both of Powhatan, for employing the Heimlich maneuver to save a woman who was choking in a restaurant where they were eating. Nunnally said when the two men saw the woman was choking, they performed the maneuver to save her life. The sheriff presented them each with a challenge coin connected to the office that is carried by his deputies.

service alone is at least four times that amount,” Stephens said. “Most of these debts won’t be paid off until the 30s, so you’ve got a long way to go on the debt service. The user charges are really just small compared to the expenses.” Also at issue are future capital improvements to the system and what infrastructure needs there are if Powhatan wants to gain access to other sources of water in the future, she said. While the supervisors agreed they wouldn’t be able to solve the complicated issue during that workshop and that several of the decisions will be made in future years, they also acknowledged that things have to change. Carson Tucker, who represents District 5, pointed out that the problem of the county’s water system and finding solutions to develop it in a way that is beneficial for Powhatan County goes back at least 40 years. As the supervisors discussed possible solutions Stephens and county staff

While the courthouse water system is operated by Aqua Virginia and there are other privatelyowned community water systems, the county operates the Flat Rock System, Stephens said. This system consists of 26 miles of waterlines that use pipes 3- to 12-inches in diameter, a 500,000 gallon elevated storage tank and a booster pump station. see CHOICES page 6A

The Flat Rock Water system uses water purchased from Chesterfield County. Although the county is authorized to use a maximum of 572,000 gallons per day (GPD), the total demand in 2015 was 174,000 gallons per day. This amount serviced five residential, 85 commercial and six municipal customers. Some board members were surprised when Stephens pointed out that of the 174,000 GPD, only 50,000 GPD is billable water. The rest goes to flushing (108,000 GPD) or is unaccounted for at this time (about 16,000 GPD), she said. For wastewater, there are two county-owned plants, the Dutoy Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Fighting Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, Stephens said. Despite a combined design capacity of 350,000 GPD and a combined permitted use of 150,000 GPD, the two plants together have a flow of 66,000 GPD. Currently, the county has 74 residential, 71 commercial and 19 municipal customers that use the wastewater system, she said.

Current costs Using the data from fiscal years 2014 to 2017, Stephens demonstrated how the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water and wastewater system revenues fall far short of its expenses. In the amended FY 2016 budget, for example, the bi-monthly revenue, which is the revenue that comes from customers on a bimonthly basis, combined with the connection fees and other revenue, totaled $429,600, she said. In the same year, the total operating expenses cost $1,060,571, which included personnel; purchasing the water from Chesterfield County; Powhatanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part in Chesterfieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital costs, and other operating costs. However this did not include the $109,206 for the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital costs and $1,564,060 for debt ser-

vice, making the departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total expenses $2,733,837. This meant the county had to transfer $2,195,031 from its general fund and $109,206 in the fund balance to make up the large difference between the revenue and the expenses, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you look at just the revenue from the bimonthly rates that the customers pay, it is just approaching 12 percent of your overall expenses, and if you add in the connection fees, you are still under 20 percent of your total expenses each year,â&#x20AC;? Stephens said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The other thing that actually surprised me a little bit was the transfers from the general fund. I was thinking they probably pay debt service, but they are actually paying debt service plus, which is discouraging to say the least.â&#x20AC;? One of the biggest drains on the departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget is the debt service on five outstanding bonds related to utilities that are currently scheduled to be paid off in FY 2038, Stephens said. The county owes $17,695,835 in principal on the bonds, which carries $9,420,116 in interest. That means the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total debt service is $27,115,951. For the foreseeable future, the total annual debt service will be around $1.4 to $1.5, she said. County administrator Pat Weiler pointed out that three of the five bonds have been refinanced, achieving savings for the county, and the other two have the potential to be refinanced. If it happened, the county could lower the debt service, thus relieving some of the pressure on the utilities. Breaking down the utilities budget situation to its simplest terms, the general fund subsidy of the water and wastewater system equates to seven cents on the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 90 cent real estate tax rate, Stephens said. To make the system work, the county would currently need about seven times the amount of revenue it is currently see CHOICES page 9A

Former Va. Sen. Watkins surprised to be named to state retirement panel By Michael Martz Richmond Times-Dispatch

ormer state Sen. John Watkins has been named to a state commission on the public employee pension system that he helped reform during his final term in the General Assembly. But it was a surprise to him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No kidding?â&#x20AC;? the Powhatan County Republican said after being told of his appointment on Monday, Aug. 1 by the Senate Rules Committee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I better go do some homework.â&#x20AC;? The committee approved Watkinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; appointment after he was nominated by Senate Majority Leader Thomas K. Norment Jr., R-James City, to serve on the Commission on Employee Retirement Security and Pension Reform. Norment acknowledged that he had not yet asked his former colleague to serve. The commission is chaired by House Speaker William J. Howell, R-Stafford, who sponsored the legislation that created the panel. Howell advocated for a different approach to reforming the pension system in 2012 than the hybrid retirement model proposed by Watkins and ultimately adopted for most state and local employees hired on or after Jan. 1, 2014. Watkins remains opposed to efforts to replace the hybrid system â&#x20AC;&#x201D; combining traditional pension benefits with a 401(k)-style

her role and a strong desire to help others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She has such a big heart that she wanted to do so much for Powhatan County. She is just a very nice and gracious person,â&#x20AC;? Carleton said. She also praised Waltersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ability to raise more money than has been raised in previous years. The more that is raised, the more that can be given away, Carleton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think she had a lot of good business contacts. It was that networking aspect that really helped her and helped our organization,â&#x20AC;? she said.

A year in review Walters said she is proud of what the program has accomplished in the past year, and not only at Christmas time. Outside of the Christmas season, the committee has helped several people through traumatic losses, something she wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fully aware happened until she was Christmas Mother. Walters said she leaned heavily on her committee, which is made up mostly of former Christmas Mothers and people who have served the program for years in influential behind-the-scenes roles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to do what you feel, but you really have to depend on their wisdom,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a great group of women. I felt really comfortable going to any of the women and asking how they felt about something or about their ideas and decisions and getting suggestions from them on how to proceed on any given thing we have done.â&#x20AC;? Carleton said she was surprised and pleased to

shut down the existing program and that means paying it off entirely,â&#x20AC;? Watkins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think financially weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in any position to do that right now.â&#x20AC;? However, the commission also includes prominent advocates for the speakerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effort to address the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pension liabilities by creating a portable 401(k)-style retirement plan that employees would control themselves. Edwin T. Burton III, a former member of the Virginia Retirement System board of trustees who serves on the speakerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commission, believes the state has to deal with the growing unfunded liabilities of the pension system now and give new employees the

choice of managing retirement benefits they can take with them, regardless of how long they work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Defined contribution is the only rational choice for an individual, since they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know at the time they begin their career whether or not they will stay for full retirement,â&#x20AC;? Burton, who served 18 years on the VRS board, said in a statement last month. Howell aide Matthew Moran said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This commission is not about preconceived notions one way or another. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about getting people together in a room to try to build consensus and find the best solution for Virginia.â&#x20AC;? Watkins is not the only former senator named to the speakerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commission. The rules committee also appointed Virginia Beach Sheriff Kenneth W. Stolle, a fourterm senator who was among candidates recommended by the Virginia Sheriffsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Association and the Virginia State Police Association. The committee also appointed Lt. Col. Robert G. Kemmler, who retired last year as director of the state police Bureau of Administrative and Support Services. Separately, the speaker appointed Virginia Education Association government relations specialist Kathy Burcher to the 21-member panel, which will hold its second meeting Aug. 22. The legislation that created the commission reserved a slot for the education association, whose members are part of the biggest retirement plan run by the VRS.

They might find a space for November and December to set up a distribution point and coordinate out of the Blessed Sacrament classrooms. They could also use the existing space they have and change the focus of the program by cutting back on gifts and increasing gift cards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have space enough to put out our 250 boxes. It would be a matter of a smaller amount of gifts and more gift cards. But we are all about giving gifts wrapped up in pretty paper,â&#x20AC;? she said. It may be a challenge to figure out how to make it work, Carleton said, but the new Christmas Mother and her committee will work the problem and get it solved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once we figure all of that out and get a system down, it will be fine. I know we will. We will make it work,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is so great about having so many members is we get all these new and different ideas about how to do things.

Walters said she is looking forward to her year as secretary serving the new Christmas Mother and working alongside such a great group of women. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love the goals of the Christmas Mother program everywhere. So I am looking forward to getting back in there to work and go shopping and wrapping gifts,â&#x20AC;? Walters said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is just a very fun committee to be on.

atching current trends evolve can be bizarre. Watching current trends evolve when you have already seen them can be even more so. With all of the attention the new Pokemon Go craze has been getting, it has sparked plenty of memories about what it was like the first time the Pokemon franchise was all the rage. I will admit I have not dabbled, then or now. It’s not that I think there is anything wrong with it; it’s just that I need another item on my to do list like a shopaholic needs a new charge card. Granted, it would be interesting to see how it is being embraced in Powhatan County. Some of the deputies at the Powhatan County Sheriff’s Office have mentioned seeing people playing on the Courthouse Green, noses buried in their phones as they searched for the illusive digital creatures. What struck me most about this re-imagined craze is that it just seemed like another in a long line of examples of how reboots seem to be taking over the entertainment industry. Yes, I realize that is an exaggeration. After all, you have to leave some room for the sequels. Seriously, though, when I think back on the last few years, some truly iconic movies, television shows and even games from the 1980s have been rebooted: “Ghostbusters,” “21 Jump Street,” “Adventures in Babysitting,” “A-Team,” “The Karate Kid,” “Transformers,” “Pac-Man,” “Smurfs,” “Annie,” “Footloose,” “Red Dawn,” “Conan the Barbarian,” “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,” “Clash of the Titans,” and “The Dukes of Hazzard,” to name a few. Just last week I saw a promo for a “MacGyver” remake this fall and a story about “Splash” being remade with a merman instead of a mermaid. Of the ones that are out that I did see, very few came close to capturing the magic of the original for me. Box office numbers and the fact that the reboots keep coming point to the obvious fact that not everyone shares this view.

And if even a quarter of the shows and movies that are rumored to be getting a retelling are true, we might as well bring back the Classic Kicks (old school sneakers) and shoulder pads. Oh, wait, that’s already happened, too. I get that people in the generations that grew up watching those shows are probably the ones convincing studio executives that they are a good risk, especially considering how much buying power those generations wield. I wrote a column recently about visiting Mount Airy, North Carolina, with my parents and how delighted they were to see all of the “Andy Griffith Show” memorabilia in the town. Nostalgia is a powerful thing. This isn’t a rant against the lack of originality in the film and television industry today. After all, the big and small screens have been pillaging their pasts for materials for decades. Heck, the remake of the 1969 classic “Ben-Hur” will be released in theaters next weekend. This column is more of an observation of how audiences today are shaping the future – at least the near future – of the entertainment they are receiving. Do I seriously believe the money men and women behind some of these reboots were swept away by their original vision and felt it had to be shared with a new generation? Absolutely not. They have found a market and are capitalizing on it. It’s not dissimilar to when churches started urging their congregations to show up at movie theaters and support religiousthemed movies so studios would see there was a market to support them. They don’t necessarily have to believe in the projects; they just have to believe they will make money on them. In the end, I guess my most basic point is that we are getting what we ask for – whether it’s with our attention, our time, our bandwidth, or our wallets. And if that is true, wouldn’t it be fascinating to see what new things we could create if more people recognized that power and used it to help shape the world they want to live in, not just revel in one that has already passed?

Saturday is the best day of the week By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist

I’m not sure what kids do on Saturdays anymore, but that special day of the week played a major role in my adolescent years. As a child, the lineup of television shows specifically aimed at kids was a rare opportunity to spend hours watching one show after the other, and a morning filled with Sky King and Penny was the absolute perfect way to begin a weekend. For many of us who grew up in this area, Saturday mornings changed partly due to our progressing age, but mainly due to a new bowling alley. Willow Lawn opened a myriad of doors when it came to local shopping, but the real gem for my group of friends was Willow Bowl, a duckpin heaven located in the rear of the newly constructed shopping center. Ms. Edna Vassar and her Saturday morning youth bowling league provided a structured activity that quickly became a staple of Saturday mornings for hundreds of local kids. For most of us, it was our first introduction to a sport that had previously enjoyed enormous popularity but whose interest had waned in the early 1950s, especially in the South. The small pins and undersized balls presented its own challenges for a group of beginners, but some kids took to it with amazing speed and skill level. For me, the bowling was fun and the competition made it interesting, but the real attraction was more social. It also didn’t hurt that a horseshoe-shaped snack bar served the best French fries I’d eaten up to that point of my young life, and I treated myself to a piping hot serving each Saturday. Again, growing up means a change of priorities and interests, and mornings at the bowling alley were quickly replaced by Saturday afternoon jam sessions at a place called The Sheik. All through my early teens, those afternoons were spent in a darkened nightclub, transformed from its usual atmosphere and clientele of adults and alcohol. Soft drinks and teenyboppers replaced the normal crowd, most of us experiencing our first real interactive experience at a real dance club. The sessions became so popular that they added a Sunday afternoon event to accommodate the overflow of teenagers from all over the city. For an untold number of Saturdays and Sundays, The Sheik packed them in featuring high energy bands from all over the country, and a group of kids acting like adults got a taste of the finer side of adulthood, minus all of the responsibility. Years later, I returned to The Sheik in a different capacity. I was playing with a band called The Determinations Band and Show and we were booked for a week at the local hotspot. Somehow, it all seemed different with real adults and beverages that provided more than caffeine. I hope Saturdays are as enjoyable for this generation as it was a group of teenagers who gathered to bowl, dance and socialize when I grew up. I’m also thankful for those special places in the past that provide a lifetime of memories — places like The Sheik and Willow Bowl.

L E T T E R S TO T H E E D I TO R Special thanks to the man who made traveling memorial wall visit happen Dear Editor, The Vietnam Traveling Wall was here in Powhatan from July 14 through July 17. Powhatan Today covered the tribute well: approximately 5,000 visitors came to pay their respects. I want to thank all volunteers and visitors. Especially deserving our gratitude are: American Legion Post 201, Marine Corps League Detachment 329, the main coordinators; Blessed Sacrament Huguenot, whose facilities were used, and Major Clyde Childress. However, the purpose of this letter is to recognize and thank Ray D’Aguanno of the American Legion, who stepped up big time to coordinate the hundreds of details, volunteers, and volunteer organizations and businesses that came together as a community to recognize, celebrate, and thank all our servicemen and women, and to mourn appropriately the more than 58,000 Americans who died for their country. From Day 1, Ray was front-and-center – in liaison with the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Association, fundraising, scheduling, security, coordination of volunteers, securing speakers and grief counselors…the list

goes on. Ray was indefatigable; he was relentless, and he was absolutely dedicated to honoring our service people in a dignified and deeply thankful way. People like Ray make Powhatan the good place it is. Carson Tucker Powhatan County

Couple says solar farm construction has led to loss of their peaceful haven Dear Editor, Twenty-one years ago, my husband and I moved to rural Powhatan. We were so excited to finally be in a rural setting after years of living in the city. Every evening we enjoyed driving home from work to our Route 13 residence. The road was lined with old beautiful trees forming arches across the road as you drove along. What a delight every evening to drive home to that beautiful sight. Our children used to tell us how peaceful it was in our neighborhood. The most you heard was the sound of a bird singing or the croak of a frog or chirp of a cricket. All of that has changed now. it appears to me that

homeowners are fast losing their rights. Now we have in place of trees the ugliest electric poles that man could ever create. Now instead of peace and quiet, we have a steady stream of commercial trucks going up and down the highway all day long and into the evening hours. The trucks make an even greater noise as they wander over the rumble strip down the middle of Route 13, drowning out the singing birds, the croaking frogs and the chirping crickets. We cannot even take an afternoon nap because of the steady stream of noise from the new commercial solar farm going into our residential neighborhood. This noise continues from the early morning hours until well into the evening. You talk about all the new jobs this will create, but what about the homeowners who already live here? Don’t they have any rights? Our yard, once filled with deer and rabbits, is barren now of all wildlife. Our peaceful neighborhood is gone forever. The electric company has taken over our driveway because it is their right of way now. if we didn’t sign it over to them then that would cut off our electricity. All homeowner rights have suddenly disappeared in the name of progress. Wake up Powhatan County Board of Supervisors and residents, because very soon, Powhatan will become another Midlothian.

Choices Continued from page 6A

taking in, she said. To accomplish that, the county would need to grow from its current 96 water customers to 580 water customers and from 164 sewer customers to about 1,100 sewer customers. To put in perspective how difficult that is, Johnny Melis, utilities manager, pointed out that only 206 properties physically abut the water main that runs down Route 60, and of those, 78 are already customers. Some of the parcels have yet to be developed. Building on Melis’ comments, Weiler said that even if all of the businesses and residences along Route 60 hooked up to the water system, “that is not going to solve the problem.” “To solve the problem it is going to have to be additional new development along 60 hooked into the system or existing development that is outside of the immediate corridor hooked into the system,” she said. However, adding customers outside of the current water line means more money spent on building connections that would likely run into the millions of dollars, she said. Board members, county staff and Stephens also discussed the fact that some commercial customers, especially ones that use higher amounts of water, are needed on the system, but so is an increase in residences being added as customers. “We need the residential density. It will be the residential density that will also bring in your commercial development,” Weiler said.

Future water supply Even as the county’s leaders struggle with the issue of how to get the current system to pay for itself, they also have to look ahead to the immediate future development of the system as well as changes that may be needed years down the line. During the presentation, Carter pointed out that there are capital improvement program (CIP) projects that the county has discussed funding during the next five years and others that need to be considered in FY 2021 and after. In the coming years, Powhatan has $2.4 million in water projects and $1.4

million in wastewater projects on the county’s five-year CIP, she said. The combined $3.8 million in projects is expected to be paid for using $1 million from the general fund and $2.5 million in grants, proffers and other sources. The water projects are smart water technology, $200,000; a Flat Rock chlorine booster station, $250,000, and master plan projects, $2 million. The wastewater projects are upgrades to both wastewater treatment plants, $830,000, and master plan projects, $550,000.

Powhatan receives GFOA certiﬁcate of achievement Contributed Report On Wednesday, July 20, the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded Powhatan County the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for its fiscal year 2015 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). According to the GFOA, “the certificate of achievement is the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting, and its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government and its management. The CAFR has been judged by an impartial panel to meet the high standards of the program, including demonstrating a constructive ‘spirit of full disclosure’ to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the CAFR.”

An Award of Financial Reporting Achievement has been awarded to Charla W. Schubert, director of finance, as the individual primarily responsible for preparing the award-winning CAFR. The GFOA is a nonprofit professional association serving government finance professionals. Each year the certificate of achievement is awarded to approximately 2,600 of 35,910 cities, municipalities, villages, townships and counties throughout the United States and Canada. William E. Melton, chairman of the Powhatan County Board of Supervisors, said, “This award is a true representation of the professionalism of the director of finance, Charla Schubert, county administrator, Pat Weiler and staff. It demonstrates the goal of being proficient and transparent in everything we do.”

on the job removing anything hazardous or recyclable from the building, shoring up the parts that will be left intact and readying the rest to be torn down, said Terry Mitchell, a superintendent for S.B. Cox. Once the building is ready, heavy machinery was expected to come in late this week or next week to begin tearing down the structure, with the exception of the gym and vocational wing, which will be gutted but are still structurally sound, he said. “Right now we are stripping out the soft materials – ceiling tiles, sheet rock, wood – and separating out the steel,” Mitchell said on Aug. 3. “If you demolish it right now altogether, it takes more time.” The Powhatan County School Board unanimously awarded the demolition project to S.B. Cox during its meeting on Tuesday, June 28, accepting a bid price of $739,405. The demolition company has until Oct. 1 to finish the project, although Mitchell said he is anticipating it will be a seven-week project. The school district is expecting to go out for bids in September to construct the new middle school that will replace the junior high school, said Russell Wilson, director of facilities for Powhatan County Public Schools. In the weeks after school let out for the summer on June 16, the building had to be emptied of all of its contents, Wilson said. Teachers have been getting first pick at the surplus to use in their classrooms, but when they are finished, the school district will hold a surplus sale for the public. Wilson said he expects the sale to be later this month. Once the building was emptied of furniture, S.B. Cox could go through and begin removing the soft materials and items that can be recycled, Mitchell said.

“We try to be very environmental. We don’t want to send anything to the landfill we can recycle,” he said. Meanwhile, other tasks the demolition crew has had to complete included 56,000 square feet of asbestos tile abatement, removing Freon from the air conditioning units, installing ibeams in the gym to stabilize the walls and separating the gym from the rest of the building in the main hallway by removing the double-T beams, he said. “Once we get a physical separation, that is when we come in with the big machines and start taking the building down,” he said. The load-bearing double-T beams, which are made of concrete, will be ground on site with the possibility of using the material as filler for the foundation of the new school, Mitchell said. It was especially important to remove the asbestos from the concrete before grinding because otherwise it would have been turned into a dust that is hazardous to a person’s health, he added. Mitchell said the junior high school demolition is expected to be a straightforward project with steady lateral movement from the structure nearest the gym all the way until the machines get to the vocational wing, which will also be separated from the rest of the building. He said he is anticipating a low level of noise impact, especially since so few homes are situated around the junior high school, and the company will work to have a minimal impact on Powhatan Elementary School once teachers and students start back. A security fence has been placed around the building, but the front parking lot is still open since the junior high’s fields are still being used, Mitchell said. He said he expects some onlookers once the big machines go to work, but the public still needs to stay well away from the fence line. Laura McFarland may be reached at Lmcfarland@powhatantoday.com.

Powhatan’s cross country team runs during drills at practice on Aug.5 at Powhatan High School. The Indians are looking to increase their representation at the state meet from four runners in the 2015 season.

Powhatan XC focused entering 2016 season By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

ast season, the Powhatan Indians cross country team sent four runners to the Group 4A state meet in The Plains. The journey to the state meet began last week as the team came out of the summer break and got back to work with co-head coaches Paul Smartschan and Bucky Webb. “We’re excited because of the veteran runners coming back,” Webb said. “They’re going to be stronger and better. There are a

lot of new faces as well and we’re excited for what they’re going to bring to the table. Even if it isn’t a successful year, it will be a successful year because they’re all great kids.” Lindsey Fanz, now a junior, returns as the headliner for the girls squad. She was 47th at the state meet last season with a 21:00 time. She was the highest finishing Richmond-area runner at The Plains last November. Webb said that Fanz decided to focus solely on cross country this year, as opposed to last year when she ran cross country and

did swimming as well. “This year, she’s decided to fully commit to cross country,” Webb said. “It’ll be exciting to see how high she can go and how great a season she can have. She’s really pumped about it.” Ashley Cooper was 67th with a 21:46 and Meghan Remillard was 89th with a 22:53 at the state meet last season. On the boys side, Chase Miffleton was the lone Indians runner to make the state meet last season, so Powhatan will be looking to some new faces to come out and take the helm. Alec Hillen is one

runner that will be looked to for that leadership role on the course. Hillen ran an 18:36 at the Region 4A East meet last season. Webb said that one thing that he’s looking forward to this year is how the runners will all push each other to do better and achieve greatness. “The big thing I always try to push is the family feel that we have,” he said. “I love how they all push each other. In pushing each other, you’re helping them to be their best and they’re pushing you to be your best. see RUN page 2B

Powhatan fields JV field hockey for first time By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

Powhatan junior varsity head coach Caryn Rehme instructs players during field hockey practice on Aug. 4 at Powhatan High School. Rehme will head up the first JV field hockey team in the history of the field hockey program for the Indians.

The 2015 season was a banner year for the Powhatan Indians field hockey team, making the Region 4A East tournament for the first time in program history. Now, the 2016 campaign starts off with another first for the program—there is a junior varsity team in existence for the Indians. Powhatan was the lone Jefferson District team to lack a junior varsity squad for field hockey. Caryn Rehme is at the

helm of the junior varsity Indians field hockey team and is excited about the year ahead for the Indians. “It’s pretty amazing that we have a JV team,” she said. “After last year, and seeing how many girls came out, it was time. It gives the eighth graders an opportunity to try it and start young. Coach (Stephanie) Brooks did a great job last year, making it to regionals without a JV team. So, the future with them starting so young and building up, it should be good.”

Field hockey is yet another quickly growing sport in the arena of high school sports, not just in Powhatan County. According to the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS), there were 60,687 participants in field hockey in the entire country in the 2014-15 school year. Since 2002-2003, field hockey has grown from 3,742 participants to 4,754 in the 2014-15 school year. The growth of field see INDIANS page 3B

Another season means new, old faces around the ﬁelds By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

The athletic fields at Powhatan High School and Blessed Sacrament Huguenot are coming to life. Whether the teams started practice last week or get underway this week, the summer is officially over for high school athletes. And, I couldn’t be more excited. I’m ready to leave these hot, sticky days behind (though that won’t really go away for about a month, unfortunately) in favor of those cool, crisp fall nights. An ulterior motive for those hot days to go away is so that my air conditioning unit can get a break from the 70 degrees that my wife has had it on since we moved into our new home, but that’s another story. We’ve got football to look forward to along with

golf, field hockey, volleyball and cross country. I love covering all sports equally, as they each present their own challenges and unique enjoyment of each. But, these fall sports hold a special place in my heart just because they mark the start of my second go-around with the Indians and the Knights. Along with my second time through the order, as it were, I get to see quite a few familiar faces and talk with coaches and players that I may not have seen since the end of fall sports last year. One familiar face that will certainly be missed around the Powhatan High School athletic community is former athletic trainer Mike Puglia. I first met him during Powhatan football season, when I was still trying to find my way around the Powhatan sidelines and he

was quite busy dealing with the pervasive injury bug that hammered the Indians last year. Throughout the athletic season, “Mr. P,” as he was known, was always around, with a smile on his face and kind words for everyone he came to speak with. Especially in the spring season, when the sports are a less intensive in terms of taking notes, he and I would speak quite often during games. He would sit in his beloved John Deere cart, usually on the track, and we’d talk about our families, my new puppy, what he was planning for his upgrade to his home, and the process I was going through with buying my own house. Most of all, we’d talk about the games and the athletes that were transpiring in front of us. He had quite the eye for budding athletes,

ones that worked hard and ones that were poised for breakout seasons. He certainly had a love for Powhatan athletics and the entire welcoming community of the high school. Puglia announced July 21 on his Twitter account on that he was leaving Powhatan to take the head athletic trainer position at Thomas Dale High School. Many Powhatan athletes reached out to him on Twitter wishing him well and telling him that they’d miss him. Let me join them by wishing him well with the Knights. I know that he will have success no matter where he goes. I hope that our paths cross again in the near future. Puglia has been replaced at Powhatan by Shelly Mickens as athletic trainer. We’ll have a feature on her to introduce everyone to

After the home meet will be another invitational at Woodberry Forest on

5 p.m. 7 p.m. 7 p.m. 7 p.m. 7 p.m. 7 p.m. 7 p.m. 7 p.m. 7 p.m.

Sept. 24. Webb said that he’s not as concerned about winning meets this season, but rather individual development and achievement. “Sure, it’s exciting (to win meets),” he said. “But, I’m more interested in personal goals and personal records being broken. When they do that, to me, that’s a huge celebration. So, if we lose a meet but one person breaks (personal record), then that’s a win. That’s what I get pumped about.” Billy Fellin can be reached at wfellin@powhatantoday.com or on Twitter at @BillyFellin.

Davoud drops times in ﬁve events at RMAL By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

Blessed Sacrament Huguenot’s Katie Davoud had a successful day in the pool for the Midlothian Athletic Club in the Richmond Metropolitan Aquatic League (RMAL) meet on July 25-26. Davoud, who is a member of the Knights swim team, dropped her time in all five of the events she participated in. She swam in the 200 yard medley and finished

hockey follows the growth of lacrosse, a very similar sport, in Virginia. According to the NFHS, there were only 1,776 participants in girls lacrosse to 3,400 in 2014-15. Some players on the field at practice for the Indians were sporting Powhatan lacrosse gear, so the state-wide trend applies to the Indians as well. “Lacrosse is picking up,” Rehme said. “It’s

second with a 1:50.62, dropping 6.93. She was third in the 50 yard back with a 28.39 and third in the 50 yard butterfly with a 28.73. Davoud was also fourth in the 50 yard freestyle with a 26.23 and fourth in the 200 yard freestyle relay with a 1:41.64. Powhatan’s DJ Kennedy was errantly left out of the Chesterfield Aquatic League (CAL) CHAMPS article last week. Kennedy swam for

Magnolia Green in the nine-to-10-year-old age group. He was eighth in the 100 IM in the Silver Division with a time of 1:33.45. In the Silver Division’s 50 freestyle, he came home fifth with a time of 35.66. He saved his best for the Gold Division Breaststroke race with a time of 44.85, coming home third.

very similar. You’ll see a lot of the private schools, the girls that play lacrosse will play field hockey and vice-versa. We’re hoping to see that here as well.” There also is crossover from soccer as Rehme made several references to soccer play and field hockey play when describing the obstruction foul in field hockey during practice. Building a love of field hockey and bringing up the younger girls into the sport is just one goal of the junior varsity team, as well as serving

as a proving ground for eventual promotion to the varsity squad. “For me in JV, it’s all about fundamentals,” Rehme said. “We’ll work on very simple fundamentals because hockey is a very simple game.” The Indians junior varsity schedule closely mirrors the varsity schedule. While the varsity Indians will play at Monacan on Aug. 24 and at home on Aug. 31 against Hanover, the junior varsity team is scheduled to open on the road against Charlottesville on Sept. 1.
