Powhatan Christmas Parade Man’s body Hundreds brave cold for holiday tradition found, details

remain scarce

By Laura McFarland News Editor

OWHATAN – The weather was cold but the smiles were warm this weekend when the 2016 Powhatan Christmas Parade rolled through the historic Powhatan County Village.

Now in its 24th year, the parade drew hundreds of spectators to watch an hour-long procession of the community’s churches, school groups, emergency services personnel, civic groups, clubs and businesses decked out for the holidays.

With 61 entries who looked great and constantly kept the parade moving at a good pace, this year’s event was a good one despite temperatures in the 40s probably keeping some people away, said John Rothert, who announced the parade along with Carolyn Bishop.

“I think it’s just a great community tradition. It brings people together at this time of year. It’s a good thing to do,” he said. “We’ve had a pretty divisive season here before Christmas in America. This

Powhatan Republicans take case about political labels in local elections to federal appeals court

By Graham Moomaw Richmond Times-Dispatch

Prsrt. Standard U.S. POSTAGE PAID Powhatan, VA Permit No.19

A federal appeals court appeared skeptical on Dec. 7 of a constitutional challenge that seeks to allow candidates for local office in Virginia to be identified by political party on official ballots.

The three-judge panel likely won’t rule until early next year, but the case could have significant ramifications for how democracy works at the ground

level in Virginia.

The challenge centers on the question of whether the state has a rational basis for requiring nonpartisan ballots for local races but identifying McSweeney candidates for federal, statewide and General Assembly offices as Republican, Democrat or

any other political party.

During oral arguments Wednesday, Dec. 7 in Richmond, the appeals judges seemed to lean toward upholding the ballot rules as furthering a legitimate public purpose.

“The local dogcatcher — it doesn’t matter if he’s a republican or a democrat. It matters if he can catch dogs,” Judge Paul V. Niemeyer said.

POWHATAN – The Powhatan County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the death of a man found on the morning of Friday, Dec. 9 in a Powhatan County neighborhood.

At about 8:45 a.m., Powhatan Sheriff’s Office received a 911 call reporting a death in the 2100 block of Flint Hill Road, according to Capt. J. S. Searfoss. Upon arrival, deputies found the body of John R. Rafter Jr., 48.

The sheriff’s office has not released the exact location or the conditions in which Rafter was found. A release from Searfoss stated that the case is under investigation and no further information is available at this time.

Cause of death will be determined by the Medical Examiner’s Office.

There is no reason to believe at this time that there is any threat to the public at large, Searfoss said in the release.

On Friday afternoon a sheriff’s deputy car was still parked in front of 2140 Flint Hill Road. According to the county’s Geographic Information System (GIS) database, the house’s property owners are John R. Rafter Jr. and Karina M. Rafter.

POWHATAN – The fellowship hall of May Memorial Baptist Church was an explosion of Christmas cheer last week as members of the Christmas Mother Everyday Committee made final preparations before the big roll out this week.

Michael was after press time. The Edwards, senior pastor; Christmas Mother Teresa remaining gifts will be Whitaker, and Diana Schmitz, church secretary. delivered by volunteers on Friday, Dec. 16, said Teresa Whitaker, the 2016 Christmas Mother.

Now in its 49th year, the Christmas Mother program received 192 applications in 2016, which is down from last year’s number of 228 applications, Whitaker said. She did not yet have the breakdown of how many individuals that represented, since an application could represent a single person, couple or family with one or more children.

Looking around the packed room where presents were still coming in and being sorted into the right boxes on Friday, Dec. 9, Whitaker became choked up multiple times as she talked about the amazing experience the last few months have been.

The room itself is evidence of that. While comfortable in their three donated rooms at Blessed Sacrament Huguenot Catholic School with administrative tasks and some storage, organizers had worried about how to fit all of this season’s presents once they started coming in, she said.

So when May Memorial’s church leaders agreed to let the Christmas Mother program take over its fellowship hall for a month to have enough room for all its presents, it truly was a wonderful gift, Whitaker said. see MOTHER page 3A

Officials were on hand to answer questions about suggested plans for road improvements along Anderson Highway during a citizen information meeting held Dec. 7.

Need to expand Route 60 to six lanes unlikely

By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – The stretch of Anderson Highway near the Powhatan-Chesterfield county line does not need to be widened to six lanes in the next 20 years, several citizens learned for the first time last week.

A citizen information meeting was held on Wednesday, Dec. 7 at the Huguenot Public Safety Building to discuss preliminary recommendations for a Route 60 Corridor East Special Area Plan. On hand to answer citizen questions were representatives from the county, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and the Timmons Group, which is the engineering firm than is handling the study.

The meeting was an opportunity to present the results of the study and give members of the public the chance to ask questions or give feedback, said Steve Schmidt, senior project manager with the Timmons Group.

In talking to residents who attended the meeting, Schmidt said their biggest concern was about the possible future widening of Anderson Highway (Route 60) and what it would do to traffic and see ROUTE 60 page 2A

properties that might lose some of their frontage to an expanded road.

Many seemed glad when they learned that instead of widening the highway, the engineering group was recommending that improvements be made to several key intersections to alleviate traffic issues.

“There is a previous study that says we need to widen Route 60 to six lanes. We are backing away from that and saying we only need four lanes. For the next 20 years, that four lanes, what is out there today, is enough to handle the traffic,” he said. “Now there are things we would like to do at individual intersections, but by and large, Route 60 in its form today is adequate for the next 20 years.”

The previous study, “U.S. Route 60 Corridor Study,” was prepared by Kimley-Horn and Associates for the county/ VDOT, said Bret Schardein, the county’s director of community devel-

opment. The study is dated Feb. 13, 2009 and covers the entire U.S. 60 corridor in Powhatan County.

That study forecasted widening 60 in some areas would be required, but it relied upon several factors that have since changed, requiring reconsideration in this latest study, he said.

“The 2009 study assumed significant traffic generated by the Cumberland County landfill, which at that time was planned for construction but is no longer going forward,” he said. “The 2009 study also anticipated full build out of the Watkins Center by this time, which is in fact still being developed today.

“Most notably, the 2009 study used a 2.5 percent future annual growth rate for Powhatan, which may have been accurate for pre-recession growth, however is optimistic today. The 2016 study is based upon an annual growth rate of 1.1 percent.”

cuses on about 5.5 miles of Anderson Highway located between the Powhatan-Chesterfield county line and Rocky Oak Road, Schmidt said.

The budget for the study is about $150,000 that was provided through the Richmond Area Metropolitan Planning Organization and it is federal money under the Regional Surface Transportation Program.

The Powhatan County Board of Supervisors was set to hear a presentation on this topic at its meeting on Monday, Dec. 12. This meeting happened after press time.

If the board doesn’t have significant changes it wants to see made to the study, Timmons will move toward finalizing the project, Schmidt said. The timeline could change however if board members do have areas where they want to make adjustments.

Getting feedback from the public on the plan is an important part of making sure it has had the input of the people who drive this route on a daily basis, Schardein said.

“We are doing it as an engineering exercise, so we are looking at it from the standpoint of vehicles and traffic counts, but the people are the ones using it, living with it so their side of it is really important as well,” he said.

For those who want to find out more but were unable to make it to either meeting, he pointed out Timmons’ study is on the community development’s home page on the county website,

Change in focus In a study that has lasted more than a year, the Timmons Group’s biggest finding was the current lack of need to widen Route 60 to alleviate traffic issues, Schmidt said.

The change in direction is largely because of traffic growth’s failure to increase by 2.5 percent each year, as was originally projected, Schmidt said. In addition to the recession, this lack of traffic growth could have been affected by a number of reasons, including people changing the way they drive and more people working from home.

“Things are changing and we are not seeing that annual growth anymore. Because of that, we don’t see the need to widen out any further,” he said.

However, the study drew together traffic numbers at various intersections throughout that corridor and looked at how they are functioning now, how they are likely to function with the projected traffic growth, and what potential improvements would be needed, said Kevin Reichert, assistant residency administrator in the Chesterfield residency with VDOT. “There are some intersections that could use some minor improvements,” he said.

Thelma worked for the Bank of Powhatan WHITAKER for more than 30 years. She was a devout member of Graceland Baptist Church for more than 50 years, where she taught Sunday school. She served the Lord faithfully throughout her life, and found happiness discussing her faith.

A visitation was held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, December 6 at Bennett & Barden Funeral Home, 3215 Anderson Highway, Powhatan. Funeral services were at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, December 7 at Graceland Baptist Church, 975 Dorset Road, Powhatan. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Graceland Baptist Church or Powhatan Fire and Rescue.

The plan that Timmons is proposing is looking at a variety of roads that intersect with Route 60, including Stavemill Road, South Point One, Urbine Road, Batterson Road, Judes Ferry Road, New Dorset Road, and Dorset Road, as well as the intersection of Judes Ferry Road and Batterson Road.

A handout given to citizens at the meeting showed improvements at a number of those intersections largely based around adding an extra turn lane to alleviate traffic.

Some of the recommended improvements include: Ad a second west bound left turn lane turning from Route 60 onto Stavemill Road while adding an overlap phase for northbound right turns and restricting westbound U-turns.

At Route 60/Urbine Road/Batterson Road, adding a southbound right turn lane to allow vehicles to bypass left turn queue.

At Route 60/Judes Ferry Road, adding a second eastbound left lane and receiving lanes.

Add a northbound right turn lane at Route 60/New Dorset Road.

Add a northbound left turn lane at Route 60/Dorset Road and implement concurrent side street phasing.

Signal timing optimization throughout the entire corridor.

With the identification of Batterson Road an alternate school route to the high school, a roundabout has also been proposed at the Judes Ferry and Batterson Road intersection to help the flow of traffic, Schmidt said.

“I think there are definite advantages to roundabouts over a traffic signal or a stop sign. The biggest is that roundabouts allow all traffic to keep moving. You have to slow down but yet they keep moving,” he said.

Resident reaction At least two dozen

community members signed in at last week’s citizen meeting, which was an informal event where they could wander around and look at maps of the affected areas and ask questions of the experts when needed.

Theresa Fields of Powhatan and her husband Richard originally attended because they thought the meeting was going to be more about economic development in the area. Even after they realized it was focused on the future of Route 60 she said they stayed to learn about what changes were being proposed.

Overall, Fields said she was pleased with the improvements Timmons is suggesting and only wishes they happen sooner rather than later.

“The proposed routes they have now for turn lanes and the roundabout should be very helpful with the traffic, getting in and out. Especially right here at this intersection,” she said of the intersection of Route 60 and Stavemill Road.”It’s bad for us trying to get in and out. If they build the turn lane, I believe it would make it easier to have a double turn lane.”

Robbie Urbine of Powhatan said he attended as a curious Powhatan native and property owner wanting to learn about the plan but also as a volunteer with Company 2 who rides the roads a good deal.

He also agreed that it was a good concept to avoid widening the highway and focus on problem areas instead.

“I think about the fire department side and where we have a lot of incidents. All of the areas where we have a lot of incidents I think they have addressed,” he said.

“If you go up and down Route 60 in the morning, you see the areas going into Powhatan High School where they are always backed up and they are addressing that area.”

Help Feed Hungry Kids in Powhatan

publicans challenging the law have argued that the ballot rules serve little real purpose because, in many cases, local races are nonpartisan in name only and nothing in state law prevents political parties from nominating local candidates or making informal endorsements.

The lack of party affiliation on the ballot, the plaintiffs claim, sows confusion and allows multiple candidates to pitch themselves as having a stamp of approval from the party.

Pat McSweeney, an attorney and Powhatan GOP leader representing the plaintiffs, said publishing party affiliation on the ballot is a “helpful cue” to voters that signals which candidates share their political values.

“It makes no sense to deny voters relevant information,” McSweeney said.

The plaintiffs, the Powhatan Republican Committee and four candidates it endorsed in a 2015 board of supervisors election, claim the law violates constitutional rights to freedom of association and equal protection.

A federal judge already has rejected that argument.

In March, U.S. District Judge M. Hannah Lauck sided with attorneys representing the State Board of Elections who argued the state has a legitimate interest in tamping down partisanship in races for city councils, county boards, and constitutional offices such as prosecutors and sheriffs.

The plaintiffs appealed after Lauck issued her opinion in March.

Ongoing Heart of Virginia Beekeepers is taking registrations for “Practical Beekeeping for Beginners.” The course starts Feb. 7, 2017 on Tuesdays (non-consecutive) from 7 to 9 pm at the Prince Edward Extension Office across from Lowe’s in Farmville. School duration is eight weeks plus a field day. Last class is April 18.

This course is specifically designed for those who intend to start honeybee colonies. Material covered will include: the history of

from Attorney General Mark R. Herring’s office, said the law is meant to “avoid the ills of partisanship generally,” saying voters shouldn’t think of their local sheriff “first and foremost as a republican or a democrat.”

McSweeney said partisan policy issues often have a real impact in local races, such as gun control in sheriff’s races and relationships with law enforcement in elections for commonwealth’s attorneys, whose offices prosecute crimes and deal with cases of police misconduct.

Studies have shown that roughly two-thirds of municipalities nationwide have nonpartisan elections.

Virginia has not listed party affiliation for local candidates since the state adopted the written ballot in 1870.

It wasn’t until 2000 that the law was changed to identify statewide, General Assembly and nonpresidential federal candidates by party, but the practice has not been extended to local races.

The General Assembly narrowly passed a bill this year that would allow localities to include partisan identifiers without forcing it on cities and counties that didn’t want it.

Gov. Terry McAuliffe vetoed the bill, saying, “Party affiliation is not useful information when making decisions about purely local matters and would only serve to increase divisiveness in local government.”

Richmond Mayor-elect Levar Stoney, a former McAuliffe aide, got a firsthand taste of local ballot confusion in this year’s mayor’s race.

Stoney was endorsed by the city Democratic committee, and his campaign joined legal action to stop competitor Joe Morrissey from dis-

honeybees, bee life cycle, seasonal management, equipment and supplies needed, integrated and sustainable management techniques, as well as hands-on session for establishing new colonies.

Tuition of $100 per family unit includes three textbooks, course notebook and CD with presentation summaries, additional resources, and one year’s membership in your local beekeeping club. Class size is limited and advance registration is required. Contact annbeezee@gmail. com or 434-660-6063.

On Election Day, Morrissey supporters also handed out fake GOP sample ballots that listed candidate Jack Berry, who identifies as a democrat, as a republican alongside presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Though Richmond races allow for democratic endorsements, city elections don’t involve formal party nominations.

McSweeney said his argument focuses mainly on races in which parties nominate their candidates but cannot communicate that choice to voters through the ballot.

Niemeyer questioned the premise that candidates or parties have rights to use government ballots to convey information.

“Can they put on their age? Can they put on their color? Their affiliations? What church they go to?”

Niemeyer said.

Judge Pamela A. Harris said that even though Virginia doesn’t seek to outlaw all forms of partisanship in local races, removing it from the act of voting can encourage voters to choose based on the person and not the party.

“Because we actually hope that their behavior in office will not be partisan,” Harris said.

The law’s defenders also have said nonpartisan local elections allow federal employees to run for local offices and avoid a ban on partisan political activity under the Hatch Act. McSweeney said the Hatch Act still would prohibit federal workers from participating in a partisan nomination process, even if party affiliation isn’t published on the ballot.

Holiday cheer in Powhatan It’s Christmas,

By Laura McFarland News Editor

‘Tis the season to be busy.

If your December has been anything like mine, it has been a flurry of activity that has pulled you in more directions than you thought possible.

On one hand, depending on what you were doing, your sleep, wallet, stress levels, or all of the above might have taken a hit in the last few weeks.

On the other hand, you hopefully have been rewarded in seeing and feeling generosity, laughter, gratitude, and all the joys that the season is supposed to bring.

That is about how I am feeling right now. December has been a whirlwind of Christmas coverage in Powhatan County. On the first weekend of the month, I was able to attend Graceland Baptist Church’s Christmas Story Drive-Thru, the Christmas Holiday Charity Home Tour, Pocahontas Elementary School’s Mistletoe Market and the Gamma Kappa Chapter of Virginia Alpha Delta Kappa’s Crafts/Vendor Sale and Santa Breakfast. Throw in Powhatan’s Anti-Litter Council e-cycling event and it was an eventful weekend.

Last weekend saw another fabulous Christmas parade in Powhatan, which the Powhatan Today was able to stream live on Facebook for the first time. If you missed the parade or just want see some of your favorite

parts again, we invite you to check it out.

And between all those events were a number of other stories, including getting to catch up with Powhatan Christmas Mother 2016 Teresa Whitaker, who is doing an incredible job leading this year’s Christmas Everyday Committee to help provide a large number of local residents in need have a great holiday.

And these few events don’t even begin to scratch the surface of all the awesome activities going on around the county this month, including concerts, craft sales, holiday parties, and drama productions.

To be honest, the whirl of events can leave you a little tired. But each of the events I got the chance to cover for the paper in the last two weeks added something special to this holiday season.

Of course, I had a few personal highlights. It’s always fun to photograph children in their best Christmas outfits at the Breakfast with Santa as children get their chance to sit on St. Nick’s lap and snap a holiday photo. The baked goods tables are always exceptionally tempting.

As an added bonus to myself, I bought a very reasonably priced but high quality manicure from one of Powhatan High School’s cosmetology students. It was a real treat.

The Mistletoe Market has a wide range of vendors, and it is always great to see what new and interesting

things Powhatan residents and visitors to the county have brought.

After walking Graceland Baptist Church’s outdoor nativity production to take photos, I had the chance to come back through in a car as a spectator and experience the poignancy of the Christmas Story again, which never gets old.

Although it wasn’t possible to fit in all of the stops on the home tour, visiting several of them introduced me to even more that the county has to offer in the way of beautiful historic homes and buildings. The structures themselves were outstanding, but it was the families and groups that have cared for them that made them feel truly welcome to this visitor.

And last, but most certainly not least, the Christmas parade was a breathtaking display of community spirit and creativity. The floats, displays and costumes of the various local groups, churches, teams civic organizations, school groups and more made getting to film it live for people who couldn’t make it a privilege rather than a duty.

Actually, I can say that about all of the holiday events I have had the pleasure of covering this month.

Powhatan’s Christmas spirit is a sight to behold, and I am so glad that we have been able to capture even a little of that through stories, photographs and videos so we can share those special Powhatan moments with even more people.

Ending childhood hunger in Virginia

By Dorothy McAuliffe Guest columnist

The holiday season is upon us and many of us are looking forward to sharing time with our friends and family, giving thanks around tables filled with food. However, one in six of Virginia’s students do not have regular access to food at home.

Thousands of children in the commonwealth rely on school meals as their only consistent source of quality nutrition, making the holiday season a time of anxiety and hardship for them. For too many families, hunger does not take a holiday.

In many ways, a child denied basic nutrition is a child denied their basic civil rights. And much like previous attempts to secure equality in the classroom, this problem has often gone overlooked.

Teachers understand the connection between nutrition and education – children can’t be hungry for knowledge if they are just plain hungry. Students who eat school breakfast have been shown to achieve 17.5 percent higher scores in math and attend 1.5 more days of school each year, which, when combined, make these students 20 percent more likely to graduate from high school.

Today, of the more than 530,000 students across Virginia who qualify for free or reduced-price meals, over half do not participate in school breakfast. It is clear that the traditional approach of serving breakfast in the cafeteria before school starts is simply not meeting the needs of every family. Breakfast After the Bell models improve breakfast participation because they take break-

fast outside of the cafeteria and make the meal part of the school day.

It’s no wonder that over 340 schools transitioned to Breakfast After the Bell models last year and even more are making the leap this year. Thanks to these programs, nearly 5 million more breakfasts were served to Virginia students in 2015 than in 2014. By making breakfast more convenient, we can access the federal funds that Con-

With Christmas less than a month away, it’s still the furthest thing from my mind. It’s an annual dilemma for me, but this year seems more hurried and busy than most, and I’m fearing my procrastination increases in intensity with passing years.

And who knows what will trigger that moment when you finally realize that the holidays are here again, and Christmas is right around the corner?

As I hurried through after dinner chores and sliced the last sandwich for tomorrow’s lunches, I happened to hear the beginning of “Charlie Brown’s Christmas” on the television in my girls’ bedroom. I quickly tuned the small television in my room to the channel and sat down and enjoyed what I consider one of the many true marvels of the season, the Charlie Brown series.

As I listened to the not so subtle messages contained in the classic tale of Christmas, I could only hope the word was getting through in the next bedroom.

I can’t imagine anyone who has better captured the spirit, the meaning, the true magic of Christmas than Charles Schulz, the creator and author of Charlie Brown.

Shulz made a lifetime of writing and publishing one of the longest running comic strips in America, and his love and dedication for his “Peanuts” characters still tugs at heart strings across the planet.

That led me to another realization that -- although we are constantly reminded throughout our lives that everyone is replaceable, and our skills are never infinitely unique --- there are some humans who cannot be replaced. Schulz is just one example of an individual with such an amazing insight and understanding of human nature that comes along once in a lifetime.

His characters give meaning to episodes in our lives that seemed too insignificant to mention, or too selfdefacing to remember. They deliver messages that seem perfectly versed, but may be considered too canned or corny in other forms.

It’s a magical contribution from one man who dedicated himself to one finished product, a lifelong work in progress that cannot be duplicated or mass produced.

In fact, I doubt anyone could replicate Schulz’ dedication, tenacity and talent in writing a daily comic strip for more than 50 years, viewed by millions of readers in 75 countries around the world. see CHRISTMAS page 9A

Dear Editor, The American Atheists, one of the world’s largest secular groups, is advertising on billboards and signs all over the United States trying to encourage people to not go to church on Christmas Day. How pathetic. I was just floored when I saw this and thought how could something like this happen?

But then I woke up and realized that this is the world we are living in – a world that is against God. Folks the reason we go to church, the reason we serve, the reason we are saved today is because of this very day, Christmas Day! Sure there is controversy over the exact day, but this is the day that is set aside to celebrate the birth of Our Savior Jesus Christ!

I pray that amidst the rush, the fun and excitement of Christmas Day you will find yourself in church on Christmas morning.

Let’s make America great again by getting it back to God! Travis Keith Powhatan County

keep order during the event. But for Sheriff Brad Nunnally, this year’s Christmas parade was a special experience because he walked the parade route as the grand marshal.

“It really was an honor. It is something that is very humbling. We want our office to be a part of the community, not just work for the community. We were very pleased to do it,” he said.

Nunnally said it felt like a great way to help wind down his first year in office and celebrate the achievements of the sheriff’s office in that time period.

“Our office is doing well, the county is doing well, the crime rate is down, and we have begun participating with a lot of nonprofit organizations and events

throughout the county,” Nunnally said.

“Our deputies are volunteering time more often. All in all we are very pleased with the county, especially the support from the county.”

The parade drew a wide range of community involvement, with each group or business putting their own stamp on the holiday tradition. Participants could be seen dressed as presents, rolling a giant soccer ball, recreating the nativity, paying homage to favorite cartoon characters and sporting a variety of other festive attire.

Mae Wilson of Powhatan watched the parade with her husband and five of their six children and said they all had a wonderful time. The parade is an annual family tradition her family has embraced wholeheartedly.

“We love it. A small town parade just has such a great feeling. We have been to

the big parade in Richmond and it is great.

But to be able to see so many friends and faces we know is great,” she said.

Highlights of the parade for her children were the Shriner cars zipping around in their formations, the tractors and the fire trucks, but they always love the candy handed out by parade entries, Wilson said.

“They call it the candy parade. The 4year-old has been counting down the days. ‘How many days until the candy parade? Is it five days, is it four days?’ As soon as she woke up this morning she said, ‘Oh, it’s parade day,’ ” Wilson said.

Ask Lexi Boykin, 8, of Powhatan what she likes about the parade and the answer tends to revolve around waving. If it is not her or her papaw, Elmore Cook, waving at the crowd, it is her getting to see Santa waving to everyone that gives her a thrill.

“I like to see Santa Claus come out because he rides around and he waves at people. I like to see him wave because he is very good,” she said.

The parade is an annual tradition for Lisa Townsend of Powhatan, who has lived in the county since 1979. She said

she loves all the different floats and all the people who come out from Powhatan and has enjoyed watching the parade grow over the years.

“I remember the first one I went to and it wasn’t that big. Now there are like 60 entries in the parade today. It was kind of cool,” she said. “It brings the community together and you get to see people you haven’t seen. Sometimes you only run into them at the parade over the years.”

For the last three years, Townsend said she has loved watching her daughter, Amanda, 11, participate in the parade with Stars In Motion, a local dance company.

Amanda said she handed out fliers this year but hopes to be dancing in the parade next year. Still, she said she loved handing out candy and wishing people in the crowds “Merry Christmas.”

The parade, which benefits the Powhatan Christmas Mother program, was sponsored for the second year in a row by C&F Bank and Blessed Sacrament Huguenot Catholic School.

Mother arrested smuggling drugs

By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – An Ashland mother faces a felony charge after authorities say she attempted to smuggle a controlled substance into her son in prison this fall.

Sandra K. Broughman, 46, of Ashland allegedly BROUGHMAN smuggled spice and tobacco to her son, Ryan Broughman, 22, who is an inmate at Deep Meadow Correctional Center, according to Rob Cerullo, Powhatan County deputy commonwealth’s attorney. Spice is a chemically manufactured marijuana substitute.

Sandra Broughman has been charged with delivering a controlled substance to a prisoner, a felony that carries a sentence of one to 10 years, Cerullo said.

On Oct. 9, she came to visit her son and allegedly smuggled in four balloons containing spice and one containing tobacco by concealing them down her pants, Cerullo said.

She then is accused of removing them from her pants once in the visiting area and placing them in a Cheetos bag that her son was holding.

“This was witnessed by staff and the bag was immediately confiscated. She was arrested and advised that her son

asked [her] to smuggle the items in for her,” Cerullo said.

Cerullo said that the Virginia Department of Corrections advised him that Ryan Broughman admitted to his involvement and conspiracy with his mother to deliver the drugs to the facility.

Cerullo said that the Virginia State Police brought the charges against Sandra Broughman and the Powhatan County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s office is prosecuting the case.

Sandra Broughman, who is currently out on bond, was scheduled to have a preliminary hearing on Friday, Dec. 9 in General District Court, but the case was continued because of a lab report that is not back yet, Cerullo said. The new preliminary hearing is set for 11 a.m. on Feb. 3, 2017.

Cerullo said that Ryan Broughman will be charged with conspiracy to introduce contraband into a correctional facility and possession of unauthorized contraband in a correctional facility, both felonies that carry a sentence of one to five years.

Both mother and son will be indicted to a grand jury on Feb. 14, Cerullo said.

Ryan Broughman is currently incarcerated at Deep Meadow on several felony charges serving a sentence of three years, two months and 10 days. He has a scheduled release date of Sept. 25, 2017, Cerullo said.

In the years since Schulz’ death in 2000, his family has resisted efforts to revive the characters with the exception of one movie.

I like it that way, for no one can recreate Schulz’ vision or conception of characters that reflected a life that hits all too close to home, most of them representing real figures in the author’s life.

Powhatan competes in pool for first time

By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

I

t was a monumental night for Powhatan High School on Dec. 10 inside the Patrick Henry YMCA. As parents, friends and spectators packed the lobby of the YMCA, looking through the large glass panes into the pool area, history was being made for the Indians.

It was the first Virginia High School League swim

meet for the newly-formed Powhatan swim team. And, the Indians certainly made some noise in their first-ever time in the pool as a VHSL squad.

Powhatan secured five wins on the night, two from Lindsey Fanz. Fanz won the 200 freestyle with a time of 2:02.41, a full 23 seconds ahead of second place Claire Evko of Patrick Henry.

Fanz also won the 100 freestyle with a 56.09, about nine seconds ahead of Goochland’s Meredith Hickey, who was second.

Clare Gerow of Powhatan was third in the event with a 1:08 and was fourth in the 200 freestyle with a 2:37.78.

Molly Gerow was eighth with a 3:00.44.

Both times for Fanz were state-qualifying times and she was a part of the regional-qualifying first-place 400 freestyle relay team along with Kathleen Malkerson, Gerow and Melanie Campbell.

The four Indians swimmers swam a 4:21.53, gapping Patrick Henry by almost 40 seconds. see SWIM page 3B

Stoner seeking funding for once-in-a-lifetime chance

Powhatan’s Justin Stoner (76) has been invited to the Blue-Grey game in Dallas, Texas at the home of the Dallas Cowboys, AT&T Stadium.

Powhatan High School’s Justin Stoner has the chance that many high school football players would love to have.

Stoner has been invited to the 2016 Blue-Grey All-American Bowl.

One step bigger than being invited to that prestigious of a game is that is being played at AT&T Stadium in Dallas.

Now, Stoner just needs to get there.

So, he has taken to the popular crowd funding site GoFundMe to try to raise the funds in order to get his chance to play on a National Football League field in front of college coaches.

“It’s a great opportunity and a great honor,” Stoner said. “There’ll be college recruiters there and we’re playing on the Cowboys field. Not many kids my age get

to play on an NFL field and I just can’t wait.”

Stoner said that he’d been going to a lot of combines and football camps when he received notice that he was selected to a combine for the Blue-Grey Football.

According to their website, Blue-Grey Football was founded in 1989 and hosts 20 combines across the United States.

Cole Blackman, a local product from Glen Allen High School and Atlee High School now at the University of Virginia, participated in the Blue-Grey All-American Bowl last year.

So, Stoner went to the combines and was selected for more combines and advanced far enough through the process that he was invited to the East vs. West game. see FOOTBALL page 3B

Indians grab wins over Orange, Trojans

By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

A

t one point, the Orange Hornets led the Powhatan Indians by double digits on Dec. 8 in a Jefferson District matchup.

But, thanks to an advantageous defense and solid shooting from the field and the free throw line, Powhatan defeated Orange 6753 at home.

“It was one of those games coming in, we knew what it was going to take to win,” Indians coach Steve Washburn said. “We knew we would have to battle.

These were two hungry teams and two teams that left everything on the floor.

I thought we overcame

some early deficit and got some good contributions.”

Orange’s size in the paint was a problem early on for the Indians defense.

The Hornets rushed out to an early 14-4 lead, but an 8-0 run, with four points from Justin DeLeon, got the Indians back in the game in the second quarter.

After Powhatan tied it, the teams tied or traded the lead seven times before halftime and went to the break with it all tied at 25.

The Indians exploded out of the gates when the second half started, as Austin Washburn immediately hit a three-point shot and DeLeon completed a threepoint play for a quick 6-0 run.

DeLeon led the Indians

with 18 points, while Deven van Natter had 15 points. Washburn had 14.

Orange would take the lead once again, but the Indians fought back each time.

Van Natter and Washburn were both effective in transition and especially beyond the arc.

“Those guys are getting more varsity playing experience and it’s starting to show through,” coach Washburn said. “Against Monacan, it took us a while and against Monticello it went back and forth.

(Against Orange) was another step forward for a team that I think continues to get better every time.

They really get after it for each other and that’s a good sight.”

The Indians also had some key points off the bench.

“Henry Atkins, coming off bench, Atticus Morgan coming off the bench,” Washburn said. “John Polland, coming off the bench.

It was truly a total team effort.”

Jaylen Hempfield and Aarion Morris, who had several steals during the game that often turned into points at the other end, sank baskets at the end of the third quarter to give the Indians a quick four-point lead.

Orange would get four points to get within one point of Powhatan, but that’s as close as the Hornets would get the rest of the game.

Van Natter started it off

with two free throws made and DeLeon added two more free throws.

Atkins and Washburn combined for a 5-0 run to give the Indians a six-point lead.

Powhatan was extremely good from the free throw line, going 17 of 22 with only three of them came down the stretch when the Indians were padding their lead.

Conversely, Orange didn’t get many chances from the free throw line.

The Hornets didn’t go to the line until late in the third quarter and didn’t make a free throw until early in the fourth quarter.

“We like to be aggressive without fouling and I thought we were able to do that,” Washburn said.

The Indians prowess at the foul line continued in a thrilling 91-81 doubleovertime win over Midlothian on Dec. 9. DeLeon led the Indians with 32 points, while van Natter had 31.

Powhatan led 28-25 at halftime and by four points going into the fourth quarter.

But, the Trojans stormed back in the fourth and forced overtime.

The teams each scored six in the first overtime period before Powhatan put the game away with 20 points in the second overtime.

Knights fall in tough game against Tornadoes

By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

Throughout the entire first half and into the midthird quarter, the Blessed Sacrament Huguenot Knights were right there with visiting Timberlake Christian on Dec. 10.

The Knights had a defensive game plan that they stuck to very well in the first half, holding the Tornadoes in check and causing turnovers and open floor opportunities the Blessed Sacrament Huguenot was able to take advantage of.

However, the defense faded in the second half and a big run by Timberlake Christian doomed Blessed Sacrament Huguenot in a 77-54 final.

“We’re off to a bit of a rough start,” coach Chris Hamner said. “Shots aren’t falling. This is kind of the repeat that we’ve had for three out of our four games.

We start off pretty good and then we come out of halftime just flat. I don’t know

if the guys are tired, not sure what’s going on, to be honest. But, we’re going to fix it.”

The Timberlake Christian defense was incredibly aggressive on Blessed Sacrament Huguenot in the first half, but unlike the Knights’ hard-nosed defense, the Tornadoes were committing plenty of fouls.

The Knights were already in the bonus by the end of the first quarter and the double bonus at the 6:05 mark in the second quarter.

More often than not, the Knights took advantage of their time at the stripe, going 25-for-32 from the free throw line, including 13of-19 in the first half.

“I think we’re getting there more often, which is a good sign,” Hamner said of the free throw prowess.

“We’re playing better defense. I think we’re going in the right direction, but we’re just not there yet.”

A run of two free throws from James Heldmann and buckets from Noah Dowdy

and Raymond Avery got the Knights out to a 13-8 lead in the first quarter.

The strength at the free throw line as well as buckets from Heldmann and Dowdy kept the Knights within striking distance going into the half down just six points.

A five-point run after a three-point shot from Robbie Kurtz and a shot from Dowdy got Blessed Sacrament Huguenot within two points, but that’s as close as they would get the rest of the game.

A 12-0 run in the third and an 8-0 run to start the fourth from the Tornadoes sank the Knights hopes of continuing their comeback and swung the game heavily in Timberlake Christian’s favor.

Also working against the Knights early in the second half were fouls.

While the calls had gone against Timberlake Christian in the first half, the Knights were the ones being whistled for violations in the second half, which

sent the Tornadoes to the line often.

Dowdy had 14 points for the Knights, while Kurtz and Colby Johnson each had seven points.

The Knights also fell 66-37 to Fuqua on Dec. 6.

Despite the losses, Hamner said that he’s confident that his team will turn things around.

“The guys are learning the new system and learn-

ing new things,” he said.

“We’re going to get there.”

Playing a team the caliber of Timberlake Christian, and especially playing at their level for much of the first half is also promising for the Knights.

“They’re a good team.

They had two or three shooters who hurt us,” Hamner said. “We’re not rebounding very well and

that’s been consistent over the first four games, so that’s something we’re going to have to fix.”

The Knights will participate in the Goochland basketball tournament on Dec. 16-17 for their last basketball action prior to winter break.

“It’s a big opportunity and I just feel excited about it,” he said.

The bowl will be played on Dec. 22 in Dallas and Stoner said the GoFundMe goes until Dec. 15.

“The GoFundMe is because we have to buy supplies,” he said. “(We have to buy) helmets, jerseys, pants and everything. We also have hotel and travel expenses. Hopefully we will have the opportunity to go. I would tell everyone that it’s a big opportunity to show my stuff for football and to represent

Powhatan.”

Over two months of raising funds, Stoner has raised $2,320 toward his goal of $3,500 as of Dec. 11.

“I could not have made it this far without the support of my family and friends,” he wrote on the GoFundMe page.

Stoner said that he hopes to get some offers

from colleges out of this game.

He was a part of an offensive line this year that opened large holes for running backs Justin DeLeon and Ross Lewis.

Stoner also played defensive line and was a stout member of the Indians unit on that side of the football.

In addition to football,

Stoner is also on the indoor and outdoor track teams.

“I want to thank all my family, friends and the community for all the support I’ve received,” he said.

“Leah Cifers stepped out of her comfort zone and swam the 100 fly,” Malkerson said about who surprised her during the meet.

“She was impressive.”

Alyssa Franco was seventh in the 100 freestyle with a 1:14.85 and Mathews was ninth in 100 free with a 1:15.63.

Molly Gerow was 11th with a 1:19.25 and Maura Campbell swam a 1:25.50 for 13th.

Jeter was seventh in the 100 breaststroke with a 1:29.72, while Ratliff was 10th with a 1:43.85.

“It’s exciting,” he said of the first meet in team history. “When I first heard about (the team being formed), I thought ‘it’s my senior year, what do I have to lose?’”

Malkerson wrote that she believed that not only was the meet a good opening act for the Indians, but gave Powhatan a boost of confidence after swimming against two established programs.

“I think my swimmers went into the meet believing that they were not at the same level as other teams,” she wrote. “It was apparent at the meet that they were every bit as good as the competition. This meet served as an excellent confidence booster.”

Powhatan swam against Colonial Heights on Dec. 13 at SwimRVA and will swim again on Jan. 14 in the Kecoughtan High School Invitational at the Midtown Aquatic Center in Newport News.
