POWHATAN – When the volunteers who cultivate the Prayerful Hands Garden tend to the plants in their care, they never know who will benefit from the hard work they put into seeing it grow.

When the vegetables they grow are ripe enough to be harvested, they could go to a family in need who is served by the Powhatan Food Pantry, Feeding Powhatan or the Free Clinic of Powhatan.

If they nurse along seedlings destined to yield zinnias or strawberries or thyme for some local gardener, they know the sale of that plant will contribute to their ability to buy more supplies to keep the program going.

Now in its second year, organiz-

POWHATAN – Even as surrounding localities are working on solutions to meet their future water needs and demonstrating it is not a resource to be taken for granted, Powhatan County is in a transition period of assessing how it wants to address this issue.

For the last several years, talks about meeting future water needs in Powhatan were generally tied to the Cobbs Creek Reservoir, a 1,117-acre reservoir that Henrico County is currently constructing in Cuûerland County .

The project was a part-

nership between Powhatan, Cumberland and Henrico counties designed to help with the meeting of potential water needs in the next 50 years.

But county administrator Ted Voorhees has confirmed that the county pulled out of the project in October 2018 because of the cost-prohibitive infrastructure that would have been needed to really gain any benefits out of the project.

Part of that decision was down to the current and immediate lack of demand on the county’s water resources, he said.

POWHATAN – The Virginia Economic Developers Association (VEDA) has presented Powhatan County with a 2019 Community Economic Development Award.

Powhatan County earned its award for redefining their community vision to create a strong, diverse economy, according to VEDA. The community set out on a year-long vision that resulted in a playbook – an implementation plan – that began in 2018 to build a high-functioning economic development program.

“We commend them for involving experts and assistance to focus on business retention, recruitment, tourism and workforce in a 14-month transformational program,” said Traci Blido, chair of VEDA’s awards committee.

Awards were also given to the Town of Pulaski, James City County, and the Northern Virginia communities of Arlington and Alexandria.

The awards were presented on Friday, March 29 during the organization’s spring conference in Harrisonburg. Bret Schardein, assistant county administrator, Roxanne Salerno, economic development program manager, and Dan Jones, a member of the Powhatan Economic Development Authority, accepted the award on

Powhatan’s behalf.

VEDA is a nonprofit, nonpartisan membership association for individuals with a professional interest in economic development across the Commonwealth of Virginia. In 2019, it offered five economic development awards to communities in Virginia.

Powhatan’s economic development story is one of a locality that had had “previously de-invested in economic development” but “was able to relaunch a comprehensive, sustainable, community supported and successful economic development program,” according to its nomination

description.

The program, which is run by the county’s economic development office, is focused primarily on business retention and expansion but also includes efforts toward recruitment, tourism and workforce, Schardein said.

Some of the achievements that were highlighted in the award included staff being in discussions with 25 existing businesses about expansions, working with 43 active leads on new projects and seeing 41 commercial projects receive approval or break ground in 2018. This included bringing Classic Granite and Marble’s

expansion project, a 25-acre high-end light industrial/office/retail development anchored by the manufacturer, with a projected $10 million investment and 100 new jobs.

Other efforts included creating an economic development website and increasing the number of properties in the VA Scan inventory. The county’s application also highlighted tourism efforts, such as landing the 2019 US Disabled Golf Association’s US Open, 2020 US Mid-Amateur (jointly with Goochland County), Patriot League Golf Tournasee AWARD pg. 7

and brother, Ethan, stood behind the chair, just as proud.

At one point, as PHS principal Dr. Mike Massa spoke to the family, Abby reached over and grabbed her mother’s hand. Finally, the principal spoke the final words declaring Abby a PHS graduate and shook her hand as he gave her the diploma. As she moved her tassel over, the hospital room, which was also full of family and friends, broke into applause.

At that moment, Abby remembers looking down at her mom, seeing the pride on her face and thinking, “I am glad she got to see this.”

The next day, Stephanie Marie “Wah-Wah-Tassee” Custalow Bodsford, who had been diagnosed only 51 days earlier with Stage IV esophageal cancer, passed away at the age of 47 on Thursday, March 28.

The graduation itself took less than 24 hours to arrange. Abby had kept the school updated on her mother’s rapidly worsening condition and they knew she took that week off to be with her.

The night before, Brooks Ann Smith, Abby’s government teacher, had called Abby and said she thought they could arrange to do a graduation ceremony at the hospital so her mom could see it.

Abby only needed two credits to graduate so the family came to an agreement with the school that she could graduate but committed to finishing those classes. That way, when the ceremony was held in the hospital room, she actually became the first Class of 2019 gradu-

ate.

Massa, who performed the ceremony accompanied by guidance counselor Sarah Baltimore, said he worried beforehand about his composure because he expected it to be a somber affair. It was anything but. He said the pictures taken during the small ceremony don’t do justice to how much joy there was in the hospital room that day.

“Mrs. Bodsford was in very high spirits. She looked great. She seemed just so happy and alert.

There was so much love and happiness and positivity. It really was how you see families after graduation,” Massa said. “I was just taken back by the love that the family showed for one another, how positive they were and how happy everyone seemed. It was kind of a beautiful moment and just one of those moments that reminds us to never take a day for granted.”

Speaking about the day before she died, Patrick said his wife was happier than he had seen her in a long time. In addition to the graduation ceremony, Stephanie was treated to another surprise that evening when her son and members of his fraternity, Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia at Shenandoah University, came to her hospital room and serenaded.

“I was just excited that morning. Because I knew she was going to get so much joy out of it. She was so proud of Abby and Ethan and the things they have been doing,” Patrick said. “For her, both the things that happened were a culmination of all their hard work up to that point.

I think it made her happy to see they were doing

need significant new capacity is just not there. We don’t see the demand. So, it was an expensive project and, even if we entered into it, would have required expensive infrastructure to connect our system to Henrico under the James River,� he said.

With Cobbs Creek no longer on the table, what the county is looking at in the immediate future is not a project to add to its water allocation but to instead better help pay for what it already gets through the possible acquisition of the Founders Bridge Utility Company (FBUC). The county would acquire it from Gray Land and Development Co. (GrayCo), the developer leasing the infrastructure of water and sewer to the utility company.

If negotiations go well

and all parties agree, the project has the potential to take Powhatan from subsidizing its own utilities by about $2.2 million from the general fund to becoming self-sustaining or almost so, county officials say.

Founders Bridge Founders Bridge Utility Company serves residents in the north east side of the county near the Chesterfield County line.

FBUC provides water and sewer services to residents/businesses of Founders Bridge, Founders Bridge Golf Villas, Bel Crest, Bel Bridge, Brookstone, and Winterfield I and II. Chesterfield County has an agreement with FBUC to sell it 180,000 gallons per day (GPD) of treated water. That number is inadequate for the area’s needs,

especially with more residential and commercial development coming in with the upcoming construction of Winterfield II. Powhatan’s waterworks system runs along Route 60, where the coun-

“We flush a lot of water to keep the quality up. The system is so oversized that if we don’t flush water we don’t have enough of the chlorine residual according to our regulations,�

Carter said.

“The demands for access to water in Powhatan don’t suggest that we will have a shortage in any kind of reasonable planning horizon.�

Ted Voorhees county administrator ty has purchased a maximum of 572,000 GPD from Chesterfield County, said Ramona Carter, director of public works.

There would be no cost to acquiring the system, including its infrastructure (pipes, hydrants, valves, manholes, etc.), which will have to be maintained, she said.

The main benefit to Powhatan would be adding customers – at the end of 2017 FBUC had 391 metered customers (residential, irrigation and commercial accounts), Carter said. Winterfield II is expected to add about 200 more customers when it is fully realized.

Where this helps most is with Powhatan’s utilities fund, which is subsidized each year from the general fund to the tune of $2.2 million out of its $2.7 million budget. That represents about 6.7 cents on the tax rate. It has been said numerous times that the county needs more customers on its system – about 500 of them – to move it closer to being selfsustaining, Carter said.

In 2018, the county purchased on average 196,208 GPD, which was down from an average 213,267 GPD in 2017, Carter said. These numbers are deceptive because the county has to flush about 60 percent of its total annual usage.

The only thing that would change how much the county flushes would be higher usage along Route 60 where the county has to flush, she said.

For the residents and businesses served by FBUC, the appeal of the acquisition is greater access to water. The deal would be negotiated for the utility to bring its at-capacity 180,000 GPD with it in the acquisition. Additionally, the county is negotiating with Chesterfield County to have 55,000 GPD of its allocated water come to the FBUC lines instead of to the water system along Route 60.

When public discussion about acquiring the FBUC system first started in fall 2016, many of those affected residents were opposed to the project because the original proposal was to drill wells to supplement their water needs, Carter said. Instead of getting well water, the new proposal of moving some of the water capacity from Route 60 has met with approval.

Voorhees said last week that all of the home owners associations served by FBUC have sent letters of support.

Where the process is now is figuring out if the board of supervisors voting to acquire the utility company would be the right move for their customers and the rest of the county.

At the board’s March 25 meeting, the supervisors heard an overview of the information Powhatan needs to make a good decision. Voorhees said one of the delays in the process is they are waiting on maintenance records to show what work has been done in recent years.

The county wants to minimize the number of unknowns and gain some surety that systems aren’t going to break down that Powhatan is on the hook to fix, Voorhees said in a separate interview. “We also have to gain approval of the transfer from the State Corporation commission because it is a privately-owned and managed utility. Once we would own it, they don’t have any regulatory jurisdiction over it, but right now they do,� he said.

If the deal were to move forward, the county would also have to unify the rates of the existing county customers and the new ones coming in, Voorhees said. “The customers at Founders Bridge area are going to see their rates go up to match the current county rates,� he said. “That has been communicated to the systems. They seem to be willing to move forward due to the prospect of longer term stability of the system.�

Supervisor David Williams, who represents District 1, agreed the county’s first priority is to protect the citizens in the county and make sure Powhatan is asking the right questions and doing the right evaluations to ensure “we are not taking on something that is going to end up costing taxpayers and be a problem.�

Future needs Even if the acquisition of Founders Bridge moves forward, the county’s water needs for the foreseeable future are being met, Voorhees said.

Based on an aggressive

growth estimate in the county’s 2015 Water and Wastewater Master Plan, the current water allocation would be adequate through 2032, Carter said.

However, projections show the county is not growing as quickly as the plan’s estimates, meaning Powhatan has more time before it would exceed its capacity.

Voorhees pointed out that, as far as Cobbs Creek went, the need was not there. In addition to the county’s system being far below its capacity, residents also have additional options such as well water and Aqua Virginia.

On top of that consideration, the draft update of the county’s long range comprehensive plan has curtailed some of the growth called for in the 2010 plan, he said. “The demands for access to water in Powhatan don’t suggest that we will have a shortage in any kind of reasonable planning horizon,� Voorhees said.

He also pointed out that in future years, there is the possibility of water allocations being renegotiated.

The Chesterfield County Utilities Department recently pitched plans to its board of supervisors for a $121 million, 10 milliongallon-per-day water treatment plant along the Appomattox River and the potential to expand to 80 million-gallon daily capacity down the line.

Williams said that water is always going to be a priority and requires careful, far-reaching planning to make sure the county’s needs, which are being met now, will remain so in the future.

He said it would be shortsighted to say we know the county’s water needs are good through 2032 and leave it there without planning for and being aware of those outlying years. “These things don’t happen overnight. They take years in the planning,� he said.

The ninth annual Free Clinic of Powhatan Bike Tour will be held on April 28, with a mass start at 8:30 a.m. in the courthouse area. Proceeds benefit the Free Clinic.

buffet at a popular Powhatan institution, The County Seat Restaurant, located right in the heart of the Courthouse area. One of the most unique aspects about the Powhatan Bike Ride is that the majority of the rest stops are located at historic sites along the course.

The riders’ first rest stop is at Mosby’s Tavern, a beautiful farm that was a meeting place for militia at the onset of the Revolutionary War. Every 10 to 15 miles along the ride, participants continue to visit a number of other historic farm and plantation homes. The 100-mile “Century” riders venture into Amelia County as well.

Jake Berman, the co-director, stated that, “Even though the rest stops are located at unique historic sites along the route, what truly make the stops special are the nu-

merous enthusiastic volunteers who man them.” These volunteers represent organizations that include the Powhatan, Huguenot and Amelia Ruritans, Powhatan Chamber of Commerce, Powhatan NAACP, Blessed Sacrament- Huguenot School, Powhatan Rotary Club and Free Clinic of Powhatan.

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

Make a difference in the lives of your less fortunate neighbors and support the Powhatan Bike Ride.

It’s not too late to register for this year’s event.

Nine years ago, a group of Powhatan bicyclists came up with an idea to organize a ride not only to showcase their county’s beautiful country roads, but, more importantly, to raise money for a worthy cause – The Free Clinic of Powhatan. After months of planning, organizing and recruiting volunteers, the Free Clinic of Powhatan Bike Tour was created.

Connie Moslow, the executive director of the Clinic shared that “the Free Clinic provides medical, dental, mental health and women’s services to hundreds of low-income, uninsured Powhatan adults.

Many of these patients work, yet still cannot afford medical insurance.” The clinic depends exclusively on donations and fund raising to provide these services and is the only place in Powhatan that these residents can obtain free health services.

Maureen Moslow-Benway, the ride co-director stated, “The first year, the Powhatan Bike Tour had just over 100 participants. The tour has grown each year and, even better, the event to date has raised more than $90,000 for the Free Clinic.”

This year, the Historic Powhatan Bike Ride will be held on Sunday, April 28. The course, which begins at 8:30 a.m. at the historic Powhatan Courthouse Village, was selected with both safety and scenery in mind. Cyclists have their choice of three different ride lengths: 35, 62 or 100-mile rides, all of which traverse bucolic country roads.

The ride begins with a breakfast

for a cherry yogurt. But when his motherin-law called and said she was fading fast, he dropped everything and rushed back to the hospital. “I got there in time. She was not responsive but she was still breathing. I got there to basically talk her through her last breath, which was both a blessing and the hardest thing I have ever done in my life,� Patrick said.

Even as the family was dealing with its own grief in the week after Stephanie’s death, Patrick said he still wanted to raise awareness of esophageal cancer because it is such a fast-moving and deadly form of cancer.

In 2019, an estimated 17,650 will be diagnosed with esophageal cancer and there will be an estimated 16,080 deaths from esophageal cancer, according to the Salgi Esophageal Cancer Research Foundation’s website. Only 19.2 percent of patients diagnosed with esophageal cancer will survive five or more years.

There are no standard or routine screenings to detect esophageal cancer in its earliest stages, and once they are diagnosed, patients often have few options available to fight the disease.

In addition to the family’s commitment to increasing awareness, the other positive thing that came out of the family’s tragedy is how it has shaped Abby’s future plans. She had already decided to pursue a career in nursing, but seeing the care that the nurses gave her mother during her hospital stays inspired her to pursue becoming an oncology nurse. She plans to start at John Tyler Community College and then transfer to Old Dominion University. “As I was going through this and sitting in the hospital rooms and watching nurses go the extra mile to make her comfortable, it made me realize I want to do that for someone. Nursing is for me and I want to be the nurse that goes the extra mile,� Abby said.

County ready to bloom with festival season

By Laura McFarland News Editor

hen they say time flies, it really can feel true sometimes.

Last thing I know it was Christmas.

This week I look up and it is almost mid-April and I am reminding myself to contact all of the spring festivals about getting content in the paper.

Powhatan often has more going on than people realize, but few times is that more evident than April and May. The weather is expected to be warming up, and that means people are ready to get out and celebrate.

For a relatively small county like Powhatan to put on so many great community events in such a short span of time is commendable and noteworthy. These events are community affairs put on by local nonprofits, individuals and other organizations, and several of them are free. Even if there is a cost, most of that money generally goes right back into the community through local charities and scholarships.

The Powhatan Chamber of Commerce once again kicks things off this year with the first show in its annual Village Vibe Concert Series at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 12, at 3920 Marion Harlan Lane. Bring your own lawn chair or blankets out to this free event and enjoy a great night of music with The Soul Proprietors. Then come back again for the other shows in the series. The event is free, but you will want to bring some cash to purchase food or drinks or raffle tickets to support the local charity being featured at each concert.

The week after that is a busy one for the Powhatan Anti-Litter Council, which has the Powhatan Earth Day Celebration from 4 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 18, on the Courthouse Green in the Village area and a free recycling event of tires and appliances from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday, April 20, at the Powhatan

Fairgrounds Building, 4042 Anderson Highway. This group does a great job of making Earth Day not only an educational day but also a fun outing for the whole family. And the service they provide with the recycling event and helping people get unwanted items out of their homes is invaluable.

Take a break from cooking and purchase tickets to the Powhatan Lions Club’s 44th annual Steer Roast, which also has the Charity Golf Tournament earlier in the day. The Steer Roast is at 5 p.m. at the Powhatan Rescue Squad Field with the meal at 6 p.m. Whether you are new to the community or have called it home for decades, it’s a great opportunity to get out and meet your neighbors.

The last weekend of April is jam-packed with local events, all of which are a great asset to the community.

By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist

At the Hollerin Road intersection in Spivey’s Corner, North Carolina, the only hint of noise in the quiet southeastern countryside is from a passing car barely slowing down as it passes through the tiny crossroads of a community.

Fifty years ago, it was far different as organizers from the Spivey’s Corner Volunteer Fire Department prepared for the first annual Hollerin Contest scheduled for June of 1969.

I first heard of the contest when I arrived at a small college located only miles from the town, not within earshot of the strange yells that emanated from the porch of a small country store located in the heart of the crossroads.

But this idea of the hollerin contest intrigued me and represented a part of Americana that, at best, was unreported, and, more accurately, unheard of, at least where I came from.

On one of my regular trips to Dunn, North Carolina, to obtain items that were not available in our county, one of the numerous “dry” jurisdictions in the state’s sand hills, I stopped at that very store and asked the clerk about the contest.

She offered a comprehensive history and explanation of a culture that seemed destined for extinction. In days before telephones or amplified sirens, local farmers developed a system of hollering that often alerted neighbors of impending danger, emergencies or calling cows back to the barn. Around the tiny community of Spivey’s Corner and other rural communities across America, the art of hollerin became a passed-down tradition, and when the festival began in 1969, a number of the old-timers with iron lungs dominated the competition.

The clerk told me the real confirmation of the nearly lost art lay in a group of tape recordings, made in the 1950s and 1960s, of

actual locals displaying their hollering skills.

Fearing the art would go the way of the rotary phone coupled with a need to raise funds for the local fire department prompted residents and local historians to begin the festival in 1969.

So, what exactly is involved in a hollerin contest? Precisely what you would imagine.

Contestants are grouped by gender and age and take turns on the stage screaming into a microphone, yelps the clerk claimed could be heard for miles.

Throughout the 1970s, the contest grew in popularity and winners regularly appeared on late night television to display their trophies and talents.

As the years passed, so did the old-time hollerers and the event transitioned to a heritage type festival and the hollerin event took second fiddle to more traditional festival offerings.

Most of what I learned at that tiny college in North Carolina I’ve forgotten, but that picture in my mind of bearded old men screaming at the top of their lungs on that porch never left me.

In 2016, interest in the contest was almost non-existent and efforts to interest younger generations to enter the competition met with little success. It seems kids are much better at yelling at each other than actually putting the skills on the line to be scored.

The contest was actually costing the local fire department money, and, sadly, the event was cancelled … and Spivey’s Corner went silent.

And I suppose few will lament the loss of the Hollerin Contest as I recall its formation more than 50 years ago.

But there’s something special in those tapes donated by Erman Godwin back in the ’60s, and the sound of farmers calling cows somehow is meaningful enough to remember in a world where most kids have rarely seen a farm.

And who said silence is golden?

The ninth annual Free Clinic of Powhatan Bike Tour will be held on April 28 with a mass start at 8:30 a.m. at the historic Powhatan Courthouse Village.

Powhatan has some lovely scenery that we sometimes miss when we are focused on our destinations. Whether you are participating in the 35, 62 or 100-mile ride, you will have plenty of time to experience that beauty.

The fun continues in May with the fifth annual Celebration of the Horse and Ag Expo on Saturday, May 4, at Rocky Oak Farm. This event has expanded nicely in the last few years to include a horse and livestock show, animal displays, a silent auction, a petting zoo and more.

Blessed Sacrament Huguenot Catholic School’s 37th annual Beef and Music Festival will be held from 5 to 10 p.m. on Friday, May 10, at the school, 2501 Academy Road. A ticket to this annual fundraiser includes food, wine and beer, live music, children’s games and more. It is a fun event for adults and children and worth a look.

And last, but certainly not least in this list, is the 100th Powhatan County Fair, which will be held May 17 to 19 at the Powhatan County Fairgrounds. The details are still developing, but it is going to have not only the traditional midway and fair food to chow down on but plenty of attractions to feature local artists, students, hobbyists, and more.

Powhatan is not the small, rural community it was a few decades ago, but it is still a community that values coming together in celebration of what makes this county exceptional and distinctly Powhatan. So check your calendars and get out and meet your neighbors, because all of these events are worth your time and support.

ment and the Mid-Atlantic Tourism Public Relations Alliance’s conference.

County staff was thrilled with the award because it was a validation of all they had been working to do, Schardein said.

“I already believed in our program but it s nice to have it acknowledged externally,” he said.

Schardein traced the journey Powhatan took to get to this point back to 2014, when the board of supervisors defined its 2030 Vision for the Community, which included the development of a "strong, robust and diverse economy." Later that year, to implement their broad vision, the supervisors adopted a more focused Strategic Action Plan, identifying their No. 1 goal as economic development.

But while the next step many localities might have taken was to hire an economic development director and set him or her to work, Powhatan took a more methodical approach, Schardein said.

In 2015, the county commissioned Bowman Consulting and Spectrum Growth Solutions to assist in the development of that plan. In 2016, the Economic Development Strategic Plan was adopted.

But while the plan was solid and comprehensive in nature, it was “not intended to be a roadmap for a fiscallyconstrained program that could be implemented within a reasonable timeline,” according to the nomination.

Instead, the economic development authority (EDA) was tasked with implementing a plan. Starting in 2017 with assistance from the RiverLink Group, the EDA set out on a yearlong, 500-plus man-hour journey of learning and development. This included monthly public workshops,

each focused on a different facet of economic development with experts brought in to speak on topics such as fundamentals, workforce, ag-business, real estate, best practices, and the statewide approach to economic development.

“There are a number of renowned professionals who came out each month to share their perspectives.

Without that it is easy to just do anything, but that might not be the biggest bang for the buck or return on investment for Powhatan,” Schardein said.

This work culminated with an implementation plan in 2018 that served as a playbook of how to staff and operate a highly functional program within the county’s anticipated resources, said Salerno, who is the only one who works full-time on economic development, aided by Schardein as part of his duties. With a narrowed, personalized approach, they were able to hit the ground running on programs they knew would work for Powhatan instead of having a stop-and-start method that might slow down the momentum.

“Riverlink gave us how to make it workable for Powhatan, with only two people and the available but limited resources,” Salerno said.

Schardein said they submitted an application to VEDA last year but didn’t win. At the time, this history and the plans that came out of it really hadn’t fully developed yet. A year later and with much of the program implemented and showing results, it was deemed award-worthy.

“What was commended was the county not just hiring someone to come in and do it but looking holistically at all of the different parts of economic development and putting together a comprehensive program custom tailored for Powhatan County and its available resources,” he said.

but to date it has only been tended by a select group of volunteers. They have several large beds, a vertical garden, a display garden, a butterfly garden, and a hoop house filled with young plants.

But they want to do more, and to do that means working to make the Prayerful Hands Garden gain attention as a true

community garden and not only a project involving church members, said Amy Varela of Powhatan, one of the garden coordinators.

“We want it to continue to grow. The larger it can grow, the more people we can help out and the more organizations we can help,” Varela said.

Even starting in their first year with only a handful of volunteers, they

were still able to take what they grew in the garden and donate fresh fruits and vegetables as well as 560 mason jars filled with soups, preserves, syrups and canned vegetables to local nonprofits, said Svetlana Weimer of Powhatan, another coordinator.

“This year the goal is to make 1,000 jars, and we are expanding who we are giving them to,” she said.

The plans for the garden are ambitious. First, coordinators want to continue to grow fruits and vegetables that can be donated to the local food pantries and the clinic and expand their offerings to more nonprofits, Varela said. She pointed out that they want people of all ages and skill levels who want to do something good for their community.

“People can come out from the community to learn about gardening, or if they already know how, to help garden and know it gives back to the community,” she said.

The coordinators created a website signup page with the different shifts available at https://www. signupgenius.com/ go/8050c4cafa923a3fb6april.

Another big push in the

program continues to be the plant sales. While they try to use as many recycled materials as they can, gardening is an expensive endeavor, Varela said. Right now everything they make is going back into the garden to keep it going.

Currently, the organizers are doing a spring sale where people can preorder from a long list of plants and pick them up the weekend of April 27 and 28. Plant orders will be taken through April 17 for the preorder sale. Order forms can be picked up at the church or requested by contacting Prayerfulhandsgarden@yahoo.com.

Pre-orders can also be placed directly at https:// squareup.com/store/ prayerful-hands-garden.

Plants will continue to be sold at additional events, including at the Powhatan Earth Day Celebration.

The long list of available items includes flowering plants such as calendula, cosmos, marigold, vinca, and nasturtium; fruit/berry plants such as blackberry, cantaloupe, kiwi, and watermelon; vegetable plants such as beets, bok choy, pole beans, pumpkins, several varieties of tomatoes, col-

lards, zucchini and celery; and herbs such as basil, chives, cilantro, oregano, mountain mint, and sage.

Prices range from $1 to $7 a plant.

All of the plants are grown using traditional practices instead of chemicals or pesticides, said Weimer, who has worked more than 30 years in the agriculture and landscape design fields. She made the design for the garden at Father Walter Lewis’ suggestion and has helped build up the small but active volunteer group that has kept the garden going so far.

Part of the reason the coordinators are so excited about growing is because they are aware of the possibilities of a community garden like this, Varela said. They have plans to do a camp this summer for local children on the autism spectrum, part of a longterm plan to create relationships with people and groups who serve those with disabilities.

Young BSH battles on

“We’re starting from the ground floor basically...

It just happens that a lot of teams in the conference have a lot of experience, a lot of playtime together and a lot of them are older,” BSH head coach Patrick Winterrowd said. “We’ve got 16 kids on the roster only so much that any of them can do...they’re giving it everything they’ve got, and it will make ‘em better in the long run.”

They took defeats to Isle of Wight Academy (5-0) NICK VANDELOECHT/POWHATAN TODAY on April 4 at home, and also to Richmond Christian Seniors Anna Causey (from left), Mary Kate Roberts, Ashley Van Buskirk, Ellie Sullivan, Nailah-Bena Chambers and Moriah Stanley were all part of Powhatan Girls Lacrosse’s inaugural team as freshmen. (3-1) the week prior, with Michael Timmons scoring a goal for the Knights in that match.

In the April 4 home game, BSH improved in the second half after falling behind 3-0 in the first.

HICKS Continued from pg. 1B

Every time I see him in the stands – because he’s never missed any of my games in my entire life, which is really, really cool – I get a fire, because I really want to make him proud… something about making him proud really makes me happy.”

She also has a brother, Ty Hicks, who has flamed her athletic fire as well.

“He was always like the biggest sports guy and he was always in the paper,” Katlyn said, “and I was like, ‘I want to make a difference, too, and I want to put my name out there and try to be as great as he was.”

That determination and passion has gone beyond sports, as Katlyn ranks fifth in her graduating class with a 4.49 GPA. She’s also involved in several different clubs and honor societies, and she’s volunteered with special needs children and adults throughout her lifetime.

All of Katlyn’s successes and efforts across the athletic, academic, extracurricular and community spheres recently came together to earn the Powhatan High School senior the Week 23 nomination for the prestigious Lexus of Richmond Leadership Award Scholarship.

“It was incredible; I felt really honored that all my hard work had finally paid off,” Katlyn said. “It was nice to finally take a step back and say, ‘Okay, I actually did do all this stuff, and I’m proud of myself.’”

In a group predominately featuring individuals from private and governor’s schools, as well as public high schools in the Henrico and Midlothian communities, the three-sport standout, in following two of her peers and teammates Maggie Salomonsky (Week 13) and Calie Rehme (Week 18), became the third student-athlete from Powhatan High School to be nominated for this year’s $10,000 scholarship.

“It shows the kind of grit and determination that Powhatan has, and

also the excellence that it can bring,” Katlyn said.

She strives to lead more by example, as well as by encouraging others.

“I don’t really try to tell people what to do,” she said. “If they feel like they’ve done it on their own, it’s more rewarding, so I just try to encourage and bring unity and try to just put my all out there so they know that they can match that and exceed.”

A standout athlete across the calendar Katlyn’s dad Tad encouraged her to play field hockey when she was younger.

“He’s like, ‘You should try it! It’s something new!’ so I tried it when I was little and then I picked it up at the high school level,” she said, “and I actually got pretty good at it, so I really just pushed on and kept doing it.”

As the center-mid, Katlyn attacked the goal, fought to get the ball back and passed it around to her teammates in order to spread out the opposing defense and create opportunities for her team. Not only was she part of Powhatan Field Hockey’s 11-3 season in 2018, but she also scored the game-winning shot in a thrilling sudden-death penalty stroke victory for the Indians against Albemarle on Senior Night.

For the winter season, Katlyn picked basketball because several of her friends played it; she tried out for the team in junior high and didn’t make it the first time, but did so the second year.

“I was like: This is something really fun and cool,” Katlyn said.

“I was kind of like an oddball out [not] knowing much about the sport going in, so I just tried to work hard.”

Katlyn emerged as the Indians’ defensive leader at point guard and was awarded the 2018-19 basketball team’s defensive player of the year honors.

“It was a really great honor to just be acknowledged for hard work,” Katlyn said, “and even if you aren’t the playmaker

FREUDENTHAL Continued from pg. 1B

Freudenthal see – and they need to see, his head coach added.

“That’s what it takes to get to a Division I program,” Pickett said.

That’s where Freudenthal is officially headed.

Surrounded by family and supporters in the Parker Gym on Monday, April 1, the Blessed Sacrament Huguenot football standout penned his decision to attend Elon University and play for the Phoenix in the Football Championship Subdivision of NCAA Division I. “It means a lot of years of hard work are finally paying off,” Freudenthal said of signing to Elon, “and I’m ready to take this next step in my journey.”

Pickett agreed.

“I think it was a great payoff for all the hard work that he’s put in on and off the field, and I think it’s well-deserved.”

He called Freudenthal “a wonderful kid” and “one of the best kids I’ve ever coached on and off the field.”

“It’s rare this day and age that you get a kid that’s very respectful, excel-

of the team, you can still make an impact.”

She’s played soccer her entire life.

“I just really, really like soccer,” she said smiling. “My dad kind of got me into that when I was little as well.”

Her passion for being able to outrun people, get to the ball first and go for that scoring shot can be seen in the way she plays.

“You can really show who you are on the soccer field because it’s such a large area,” Katlyn said.

While she played both offense and defense for the field hockey team and was known for her defense on the basketball team, Katlyn is a top threat to score for Powhatan Girls Soccer, and she received her team’s offensive award for the year last year.

Outside of school, Katlyn also plays for the Richmond Strikers U19 Elite Team, and she has about 10 different soccer offers from smaller schools, although Katlyn aspires to attend the University of Virginia and either walk-on to the team or play a club sport there.

Academic excellence The academic strategies that have helped Katlyn include limiting her social group to a smaller size, motivating herself and receiving motivation and drive from her teachers and family.

“My dad’s been a big influence on me with sports and academics,” she said. “He just says, ‘Be the best that you can be,’ and that’s really what I strive to do.”

She noted she’s kind of a perfectionist “which is kind of hard because you make mistakes,” she said - but she recalled her chemistry teacher telling her: “It’s okay to make mistakes.” She remembered not wanting to take A.P. Chemistry this year, but her teacher encouraged her to try the class.

“You should try it and just throw yourself out there,” she remembered her teacher saying to her.

“Do something you’re passionate about, even

lent character, he’s a straight-A student and just cares about the well-being of the school and his teammates,” Pickett said. “He puts all that first before football. That’s why he’s gonna do big things.”

Elon’s “tough academic environment and the competitive football” both appealed to Freudenthal, who will be joining the team as an offensive lineman (OL).

“I think at Elon, there’s an edge there that you can’t find anywhere else, and I’m really excited about that and this new coaching staff and [new head coach] Tony Trisciani,” Freudenthal said. “We’re all really excited to get started.”

Elon is looking to build upon a 2018 season that featured a winning record of 6-5. Freudenthal is excited about the players who are already in place, as well as the incoming class of new teammates who are joining the Phoenix. He noted that the team stresses effort, discipline, trying your hardest and pushing each other.

“It’s non-negotiable,” he said, “and I’m ready for that.”

Freudenthal, too, is coming off a

though you fail, because failure is a precursor for success, and it’ll just motivate you later on in life.”

She uses sports as kind of her “balancer of sanity” because “it can teach you so many different aspects in life like teamwork, failure, success, working hard and achieving something, working hard and failing at something.”

“I also use it as a stress reliever,” she said.

“When I’m in the game I kind of just zone everything out and just put my all into it. If you put your all into everything you’re doing…it doesn’t really seem like a job.

It’s more fun.”

And being more active in things makes her happier.

“It feels like I’m contributing to something rather than sitting home and doing nothing,” she said.

Beyond the classroom Being a part of six different honor societies the National Honor Society (NHS), the National Math Honor Society, the National Science Honor Society, the National Art Honor Society, the National English Honor Society and the National Spanish Honor Society – has shaped her mind to have a better respect for different subjects as a whole. And the role of NHS secretary has been a big role and a lot of responsibility for Katlyn, as she takes the minutes at all the meetings, organizes the group, gives people updates and makes sure that everyone is informed.

“It’s shown me that being a leader is very important,” she said, “and making the team collective is always the goal.”

Katlyn’s also been a part of a couple unique experiences. The Capital One Leadership Conference that she was selected to attend was really incredible, she said; the conference featured businesswomen who came together to inspire and motivate women to make big impacts on society and strive for greatness.

There was also the National American Miss Teen Pageant, which saw Katlyn become a state finalist and achieve the National American Miss Virginia Academic Excellence Award, as well as the Spirit of America Award.

“That was one of my favorites actually because I don’t seem like a pageant person just because I play so many sports and I’m kind of like a tomboyish person I guess you could say,” Katlyn said, “but it’s really cool because it’s not all about the beauty and all about the glamour; it’s about public speaking, showcasing yourself, getting interviewed with judges and trying to formulate connections with these girls and also just inspire women as well.”

She tried many new things through the pageant. She sang. She did modeling. She played the piano. She acted even, and she got to do a Got Milk? commercial.

“It was just so fun to go out of your comfort zone and try to push yourself to do different things,” she said.

Helping others Katlyn has been volunteering and assisting with the Medford League at PHS for as long as she can remember because her mom, Rebecca Hicks, was a special education teacher’s assistant when she was younger.

“I’ve always had that affinity and love for these kids,” Katlyn said.

“It’s just shown me that they’re people who are very important to society and that they’re so genuine and true to who they are that we can really learn from them and grow as people and I think that they can grow from us as well. Just helping the kids is very heartwarming for me.”

In her time volunteering with special needs students, she’s developed a strong friendship with a young man whom she’s known since fifth grade when she was his mentor. She’s gotten to see him grow as a person throughout high school.

“He has a passion for

winning season. He made First Team All-State both on offense and defense and factored into the Blessed Sacrament Huguenot Knights going 7-3 in 2018.

“It’s definitely caused me to become a leader,” Freudenthal said of being a part of BSH Football, “and take this next step on my own to figure out what it means to lead and…to actually make the tough decisions and do the hard choices...”

The six-foot-three OL anticipates that his knowledge of the sport, both his feet and his hands on the skills’ side and his ability to read the defense and pick up on the plays easily will help him to be very versatile in positions from center to guard.

As for the first things Freudenthal will do when he gets to campus…

“Start classes,” he said. “Start workouts and classes.”

And he doesn’t mean in August or September.

Freudenthal will graduate from BSH on June 8, move in to Elon on June 9 and start classes June 10.

“Workouts and classes – as soon as I get down there, I’m ready for that,”

movies, so he actually wants to be a director when he grows up, and I really think he can do it,” Katlyn said. “I just really hope that he pursues his passions in life, and he’s kind of motivated me to pursue my passions in life as well.”

Volunteering with the Medford Basketball League and the Special Olympics helped push Katlyn toward her career goals, which are centered on helping others.

“It’s really, really cool when you meet these kids and these adults as well and they come up to you the next year and they just remember you and they’re just ecstatic to see you,” Katlyn said.

“It’s so heartwarming that they know who you are. It’s rewarding and also touching that you made that much of an impact on [their lives] and they can make it on yours as well.”

Kaytlyn has also been a Christmas Mother volunteer, as well as a part of her school’s Santa Breakfast, Leftovers Club and Oasis Club.

Other acts of community service include participating in service cleanup at the Blackhawk Gym with her field hockey team, working on a Christmas Float with her basketball team and serving as counselor during kids’ camps held by both teams.

In 10 years, Katlyn hopes to become an OBGYN and travel to third world countries to aid in family planning and contraceptive use.

“It’s also helping the needy, which is a big goal in my life,” she said, “and maybe doing some scientific research with cancer research and diabetes, because those two factors have been parts of my family and I’ve just been touched to my heart to move those type of issues.”

Katlyn said she wants to help as many people as she can.

“Even if my name isn’t recognized or if I’m not the top scientist that’s gonna create the cure for cancer or something of that nature, just to be a part and help the betterment is just what’s important to me.”

he said.

Freudenthal aims to major in computer science.

“I feel like Elon can help me academically succeed in all ways possible.”

“I think, number one: we don’t have to worry about Luke’s academics…he has everything: he has grades, the character, his parents have just done a great job raising Luke,” Pickett said. “He’s just a very respectful and grateful person and fun to be around.”

Both Freudenthal and his teammate Noa Hasty, who signed to attend and play for Shenandoah on March 18, penned their decisions in front of many of their fellow students.

“I think a small school like this where the others kids see that, that it just carries on in so many ways, all the way down to the 6th, 7th, 8th graders,” Pickett said, adding of Freudenthal: “If you can name a BSH kid that’s a role model, he is the definition.”

He said that Freudenthal always put his team first.

“Elon’s getting I think the complete package with this kid,” Pickett said.

“It’s a really good pickup for them.”

the team, Stanley said.

“We’ve definitely got the shy ones and then the really bubbly ones, the ones who like to dance, the ones who don’t,” she said, “but all that just brings us together. We have a fun time.”

Roberts brings an outgoing approach, Stanley contributes positivity and Sullivan, in addition to being “comic relief,” is an example to her teammates of what it means to be a really coachable player.

Van Buskirk, who first started playing the sport when they didn’t even have enough players to field a Rec team and was able to play for a travel team for five years, strived to bring the lessons she learned from her travel coaches back to Powhatan. Chambers, her teammates said collectively, brings “crease rolls – lots of crease rolls” – and also consistency, reliability, an infectious determination and a hardworking mindset.

Together, Causey said, they’ve bonded really well, and that bond has transferred over to the field.

“We all love each other and we’re all passionate about the game. A lot of what we do on the field is for each other,” Causey said. “I think that’s why we’ve succeeded and grown so much the last four years.”

“Because we’ve been together so long, the dynamic is there,” Chambers said, “so we’re able to help each other score, defend or whatever needs to be done.”

They always have fun together, no matter what they’re doing.

“We always find a way to make each other smile,” Cau-

sey said.

“Everything’s funny,” Chambers said. “It’s just like, whatever we say, we just know the other person’s gonna think it’s funny, or we just like to joke around. We never try and be quiet about anything.

“And we’re always open to take criticism from each other, “she added, “because we’ve grown with each other, so it makes it easier to just have a laid-back and focused environment at the same time. It’s a very comfortable environment.”

“Since we’ve grown together, I think now we’re learning how to take criticism from one another, which helps better to translate into our play, which makes it more fun,” Sullivan said.

“We hold each other accountable, and there’s a really high standard without sacrificing the compassion and just the friendship,” Van Buskirk said.

The turning point in the program, the seniors said, was Laura Camp and Angie Van Buskirk taking on their respective roles of head coach and assistant coach of the Powhatan Girls Lacrosse team, as well as the coaching that they brought to the players.

“Coach Camp really had a big influence I would say – she’s very positive and she knows how to react to certain situations…” Roberts said.

“With our coach just instilling that passion back into our hearts that we first had when we first started playing, it completely changed,” Causey said.

“And it also changed that we weren’t doing it for the coach anymore – we were doing it for each other and we were doing it because we wanted to do it for the teammates that had been working hard all season.”

“Coach Camp and Coach VB have done such a good job of making sure that we’re all learning together, so they’re making sure that, when they’re telling us to do something, that we’ll try to drill and we’ll make sure it works first, and we just build upon that,” Chambers said, adding: “It’s not as: ‘Do this, do that;’ it’s more like: ‘Let’s learn how to make this so the whole team can benefit from it.”

Having grown together through four seasons with Powhatan Lacrosse, the freshmen on that inaugural team now find themselves in the position of senior leaders to a talented pool of underclassmen.

“Everything you do, I feel like they’re watching you and they will take that with them when they’re seniors,” Roberts said, “and they’ll lead the same way we did, so we want to do a good job in that way.”

“It’s not as daunting as I thought it would be because the freshmen and the sophomores and juniors are already very mature and they kind of know the sport,” Chambers said. “Even though we’re all learning, it’s not so much: we have to worry about telling them, ‘Hey, pick this up’ or ‘Let’s do this drill.’ We’re all in the same mindset, so now it’s more of just: on the field, we’re leaders and we’re setting up plays, or we’re making sure that everyone’s head’s in the game, so it makes it really easy.”

Everything that the seniors do for the first time, they’re also doing for the last, Ashley Van Buskirk said.

“Our first game is our last first game and all those things, so every bus ride home, we just try to really cherish it,” she said, “and you have to remem-

Page 3B

ber: if you want to be remembered for anything, you just have to leave a legacy.”

“It’s kind of exciting to know that this legacy is an actual legacy, and people are actually gonna still be playing lacrosse after we leave,” Sullivan added before gesturing to her underclassman teammates during practice: “All these people are still gonna be here and now there’s like a JV rec ream, so that’s even better than what we’ve had…so that’s kind of exciting to know that more and more people will be playing girls lacrosse...”

Something they can always hold close to their hearts, Ashley Van Buskirk said, is that they were part of that very first team.

Chambers wants to come back with this same group of seniors she’s playing with right now and go see one of Powhatan Girls Lacrosse’s games, maybe two years from now, “and just to see how Coach Camp and Coach VB have just turned this whole thing around.”

“This is only the beginning we’re seeing,” Chambers said.

“It just makes me really excited to know that, after we leave, the program’s gonna be able to survive and still thrive with all the wonderful freshmen and underclassmen that we have.”

Causey wouldn’t change any of their four years together for the world.

“I think everything that happened in our team helped us grow,” she said. “A lot of it was hard and a lot of it took a lot of time and learning, but ultimately I think I wouldn’t change any of it. It was worth meeting every single one of these girls that I love so much and I’m gonna miss them so much.”

plugging...”

James Hawkins in the second half delivered a cannonball off of a scorching kick, forcing the Chargers’ goalie to block the shot skyward and then fend off subsequent pressure from multiple Knights.

Hawkins later launched a couple more rockets that the goalie would have to catch in goal.

“He’s a class act, class kid, I love that kid to death,” Winterrowd said of Hawkins. “He’s a perfect leader for the team... great kid, great captain, I’m glad we’re gonna have him for one more year.”

BSH goalie Tyler Jenkins in the back half jumped up, got his hands on a couple of shots off of corner kicks and hauled them in for saves. He made a jumping grab on a shallow pop-up kick and stopped another incoming shot on a diving save along the left side of the goal late in the game. He was playing through a pulled right quad.

“Normally when he comes out of the goal, he can beat most people; he’s got really good anticipation,” Winterrowd said.

“The [goal] he gave up at the end there, he was a half-a-step slow because his quad was hurting, so he couldn’t get the burst he normally does, but he had another good game.”

BSH Soccer will host Brunswick Academy on April 12 at 4:30 p.m.
