Master Gardeners are trained volunteers who promote environmentally sound horticulture in their communities. If you have an interest in becoming a Master Gardener volunteer, now is the time to complete your application for an opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge about gardening and give back to your community. All applications for the Goochland Powhatan Master Gardener training program for 2021 must be turned in by Nov. 15. The program offers more than 50 hours of instruction on a broad range of horticultural topics, including garden fl owers, ornamental trees and shrubs, insect/plant disease identifi cation, weed management, soils and plant nutrition, vegetable gardening, home fruit production, lawn care, and water conservation.

Classes will be held twice weekly in the mornings from January through April, via both virtual and socially–distanced, inperson sessions. All classes are taught by Virginia Tech extension specialists, agents, and local experts. In exchange for training, participants are asked to volunteer time to their county’s Virginia Cooperative Extension program with at least 50 hours of volunteer service within one year following the training to earn their certifi cation as a Master Gardener.

The type of service done by Master Gardeners varies according to community needs, and the abilities and interests of the Master Gardeners. Some answer telephone requests for information related to gardening while others staff plant clinics or displays at community events. They may help establish community garden projects, work with 4-H youth, or assist their agent with press releases related to gardening. The Master Gardener coordinator in the County Extension offi ce decides how volunteer time can be best utilized. Tuition for the training class is $140 (cash, check, or credit card). Limited scholarships are available. Applications can be acquired at www.gpmga.org or by calling the Powhatan Extension Offi ce at 804-598-5640.

BOATWRIGHT

Continued from pg. 1 opportunities where other people can get involved for the public good.

The resolution was actually approved by the House of Delegates on Aug. 24, but Ware kept it a secret from Boatwright until the chamber meeting. Drawing on something Boatwright had said earlier in the luncheon about not waiting for just the right conditions before acting, Ware said he didn’t want the opportunity to honor her to get away.

“This is as happy a day as I have had for many, many days in this year we have had with all of its diffi cult days,” Ware said.

Boatwright said she had a suspicion something was going on because her daughter, Amy Potter, was insistent she come, and all of the employees from Richardson-Harris-Boatwright Insurance Agency Inc. were there as well. She listened in stunned silence as Ware read the resolution in her honor.

“My fi rst reaction was I thought, so this is why Amy wanted me to come to this meeting today,” Boatwright said with a big grin.

Ware said Potter was his “secret agent” to gather information about her mother.

As Ware read the resolution, Boatwright said she was amazed to hear her life laid out in that way.

“If I had to sit down and think about all the things I have done, they have just been so fun. What I have done in my life has been fun times,” she said.

Boatwright was asked to attend the October chamber meeting on the pretext of sharing her memories during a presentation on the Powhatan Leadership Institute (PLI). Organizers of the community program have decided to cancel the 2021 session and plan instead to return in January 2022.

During the presentation, Boatwright talked about the county tour that always begins every PLI session. As a lifelong resident, she assumed before the tour she would be seeing things she already knew. She said she got off the tour bus realizing she had learned even more about her county, which she appreciated.

At the end of her speech, Boatwright reminded those present to live in the moment and not put off things until tomorrow that they can do today.

“I want to tell you, don’t wait to do something until it gets convenient, because it’s never going to be convenient,” she said.

The House resolution talks about Boatwright’s life from childhood to present day. The daughter of William Ivy and Eva Denoon Stokes, she was born Ruth Stokes in in her parents’ home on Trenholm Road and has spent the entirety of her 83 years in the Trenholm community. Boatwright credits her humble but happy upbringing as a key factor in how she decided to live her life and help others.

“I lived the greatest life but didn’t have anything,” she said.

She graduated from Powhatan High School in 1955, where she played on the girls’ basketball team, and to this day she “loves basketball and doesn’t miss a game when her granddaughter, Charlie, is playing.”

Shortly after high school, at a dance at Sunnyside, Ruth Stokes met Freddie Boatwright. The couple married 66 days later. In May 2020, the couple commemorated their 64th wedding anniversary. Together, Ruth and Freddie Boatwright have three children, six grandchildren, and fi ve great-grandchildren.

In 1962, Boatwright began working at a local insurance agency, where she subsequently became an equal partner in 1981, and, though semi-retired in 2007, she still works three days a week in the fi rm.

In addition to being a wife, mother, and businesswoman, Boatwright is a lifelong member of Muddy Creek Baptist Church; a longtime member of the Powhatan Chamber of Commerce; served on the Huguenot Academy board for several years in the 1980s; supported Powhatan’s Relay for Life since its inception in 1995; and worked on the organizational

committee that conceived and inaugurated the Festival of the Grape, fi rst held in 2002.

She helped to organize the 200th anniversary celebration of Powhatan in 1977; organized the National Day of Prayer program in Powhatan for more than 20 years, and was one of the people instrumental both in saving the Powhatan Village Building from destruction and refurbishing the Powhatan War Memorial Building.

Boatwright was recognized for her special love of veterans and the way she has honored them with her annual Veterans Musical Show since it was fi rst held in 1993 and by organizing the monthly Word War Round Table.

Of her many accomplishments, Boatwright said she was especially proud of her work with the veterans and with Relay for Life.

Powhatan runners earn fi rst XC wins

By Nick Vandeloecht

Sports Editor

NICK VANDELOECHT/POWHATAN TODAY

Powhatan’s Olivia Goodrich goes to receive her first-place medal after it is announced that she is the winner of the girls open B race in 24:32 at Pole Green Park on Oct. 10.

MECHANICSVILLE – Olivia Goodrich had just fi nished her 5k race in the rain at Pole Green Park.

The Powhatan High School freshman was standing at the back of the fence with the impression of, “Dang, that was a lot harder than I originally imagined it was going to be . . . I didn’t know it was going to be so many hills!” And then, when race offi cials were announcing the top three fi nishers in the girls’ open A and B races, they said something she wasn’t expecting to hear.

They said her name.

She had won the girls B race in 24:32.

“I was like, ‘Whoa! That’s crazy!’” Goodrich said, “and I just had like this moment of enlightenment almost, like, ‘Whoa! I can do this!”

Saturday’s triumph marked the fi rst win for the freshman – who ran a little bit of cross country in eighth grade prior to running for the high school team this year – and it’s inspired her to keep going with it.

She wasn’t the only winner from Powhatan that day. Her teammate and fellow freshman Rylan Powers set a personal record (PR) when he won the boys open B race in 19:43. That, too, was the fi rst-ever cross country win for Powers. He also PR’d by more than a minute while racing in the rain.

“It was really nice – I didn’t think that I was going to win when I was running it,” Powers said. “But then afterward, when I saw the time on the clock, I’m like,

Ellie Barton has wanted to attend RandolphMacon College for as long she can remember. Her sister started softball before her and took batting lessons with R-MC’s assistant softball coach, Chip Bailey. After every one of her sister’s lessons, coach Bailey would take the time to let Barton hit, too.

“I fell in love with the campus and atmosphere of the school immediately,” Barton said.

And it wasn’t just the team and environment.

To say Collegiate is opening 2020 on a dominant start to the season would be putting it lightly.

The Cougars, who play their home matches at the Robins Campus in Goochland County, have won their fi rst fi ve team matches, going 34-1 in singles as they defeated St. Catherine’s – the team that beat them for the League of Independent Schools tournament championship in 2019 and fi nished one round better than them in the state fi nals – with a winning score of 6-1, and then routed Trinity 7-0.

When breaking down the individual statlines, Collegiate played its most competitive sets of singles yet against St. Catherine’s. The Cougars went into that Tuesday match having recorded 13 10-0 wins, but the Saints prevented a single bagel, winning at least one game against each of the Cougars’ players.

For Collegiate, senior Helena Huff defeated Madeliene Carithers 10-4, freshman Elizabeth Mendoza fended off Reagan Butler 10-5, senior captain Nora Willett powered past Lily Caldwell 10-1, senior Kayli Shenk from Powhatan out-dueled Lindsey Paulin 10-6, sophomore Lucy Ottley held off McKenly Thompson 10-5 and sophomore Emma Eldridge battled past Olivia Aghdami 10-5.

Ava Dalton got the sole win for the Saints, fending off sophomore Claiborne Dillard 10-5.

Collegiate dominated against Trinity on Thursday, notching fi ve bagels in the seven singles matches. The top three Cougars players all won 10-0, with Huff routing Lucy Rowe, Mendoza blanking Sophie Aprahamian and Willett trouncing Lucy Crichton.

Shenk routed Gabby Strickler 10-1, Dillard bounced back to defeat Perrin Gilman 10-4, Ottley blanked Emma Smith 10-0 and Eldridge dominated against Clare Murphy 10-0.

In Collegiate’s fi ve exhibition matches against Trinity, McKenna Boardman blanked Brynn Giuerette 8-0, Malone Morchower routed Kate Hurtbert 8-0, Kylee Sanderson trounced Meredith McCray 8-0, Lucy Barnes defeated Emily Krickus 8-2 and Ann Carter Arendale won against Sonnie Kayer, 8-2.

Loading takes place at the home of Elwood Yates, Jr., for the annual elk and mule deer hunting trip from Powhatan to Hayden, Colorado. A tradition undeterred

Staff Reports

The COVID-19 pandemic at fi rst halted, and has since altered, many events, functions, practices and plans across the globe.

But one tradition is still going strong.

On a gorgeous fall day in Powhatan, a group of local hunters loaded their equipment into a truck and trailer at the home of Elwood Yates, Jr., in preparation for their annual mule deer and elk hunting trip to Hayden, Colorado. Four are fl ying up, and four are driving the equipment across the country, with stops in states including Indiana, Missouri and Wyoming.

The fi ve-day hunt is set to take place from Saturday, Oct. 24, to Tuesday, Oct. 28. They’ll also be able to do some scouting, shooting and installing of blinds on Friday, Oct. 23.

The hunters are planning to load the game on Thursday, Oct. 29 and head home. They’re looking to return Saturday in the p.m. after completing the 1,900-mile, two-and-a-half day trip back with the meat.

Going on the hunt this year are Bill Nixon, Brian Gregory, Cory Fridley, John Agee for the fi rst time, Ralph Lineweaver, Ray Avery IV, Scott Thorpe, and Elwood Yates, Jr., who is organizing the hunt and has been going for 28 years.

On loading day, the hunters remembered former Powhatan Sheriff Shirley Reynolds, who passed away on April 2 of this year at the age of 92. Sheriff Reynolds began the longtime hunting tradition in 1965.

‘Oh, this is actually pretty fast!’”

While the Virginia High School League cross country season isn’t slated to begin until February due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Powhatan High School’s student-athletes have been able to run unattached in races hosted by clubs like Hanover Elite XC Club, who held the reversecourse 5k’s on Oct. 10.

“It really makes me happy, and it makes me think that our team is going to be doing really well this season,” Powers said of the win.

Saturday’s races marked the fi rst time that the reversed-course layout was used at Pole Green Park. Goodrich said the fi rst mile was defi nitely the fastest – it was really fl at, and it’s when you had the most energy – and then, once they got into the woods, the hills came into play.

Goodrich had also never run this course before, so she wasn’t expecting that – and as rain fell, she said she almost fell down a few of the hills because they were so slippery and wet.

“But it was kind of fun,” she said, describing how it gave her energy. “It was defi nitely really diffi cult – by like halfway through mile 2, I was like, ‘Whoa, this is starting to get really tiring,’ but you’ve just got to keep positive and telling yourself you can do this and keep going. . .

“. . . learn to love the pain,” she added with a laugh.

For Powers, the challenges posed both by the course’s diffi cult layout and the rainy conditions included the uphill and downhill transitions. He described both the downhill slopes and bridge on the course as being slippery.

“I almost fell twice,” he said, noting how that led to him utilizing different paces, including slowing down on the downhill transitions to keep from falling.

Before running high school cross country, Powers ran for the middle school and also a few times with his dad before that; he was 9 years old when he ran his fi rst Monument Avenue 10k in Richmond. It was around last year when he got serious about running.

Along with their teammates, Powers and Goodrich have been able to train with Powhatan cross country coach Paul Smartschan for 90-plus minutes every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at the high school. They’ll work on a various aspects like hills and speed – things they would’ve still tackled at this point of the year even without the impact of COVID, although now, the sessions account for social distancing and COVID-related precautions, Powers pointed out.

“He defi nitely knows what he’s doing,” Goodrich said of Smartschan. “Last year he improved some of my times by 30 seconds in one season.”

“He helps us get our mileage in so that we can be ready for the season,” Powers said. “It’s been really helpful because it gives me more motivation to run outside of practice as well.”

Powers will go on runs around his neighborhood, and Goodrich will usually try to run on the roads around her house; some days she’ll go on longtempo runs, some days she’ll do crosstraining in her house, and then her driveway has a really big hill, so she’ll do a little bit of hill work there.

To still be able to do what they would’ve done their freshman year even if the COVID-19 pandemic had not occurred – partake in cross country training at the high school, compete in meets – it means a lot, Goodrich said.

“Since everything is so different right now – school and just daily life in general – running and going to cross country is like the one thing in my life that’s stayed pretty normal,” Goodrich said. “It’s just the one thing that’s kind of kept me sane and I look forward to it.

“I think that running is one of the things that’s keeping me sane through all this,” Powers added.

“I can go to cross country and feel like things are normal again,” Goodrich said, “and it’s nice, and I love that Smartschan is comfortable enough to do that for us.”

Her goals include making sure that she keeps having fun with cross country.

“I love it,” she said, “and I don’t ever want to lose this.”

“They have a very successful PreLaw major with many off- and oncampus internship opportunities,” Barton said. “Everything lined up perfectly, from academics to athletic aspects of attending my dream school.”

Come the 2021-22 school year, Barton, a senior at Powhatan High School, will realize her dream of attending R-MC. She’s also embracing the opportunity to play for the school’s highly successful Div. III softball team.

“Being committed is a huge accomplishment in my mind because I have fi nally reached my goal,” Barton said. “I have been working hard toward this for a long time, and it feels good to have made it this far.

“I feel like all my hard work has paid off, and that’s something I’m proud of,” she said. “I’m super excited to play in college and can’t wait to continue working hard and getting better.”

Barton will join a powerhouse program that in 2019 went 30-17 and secured its fi rst berth in the NCAA Championship series after beating Christopher Newport in the super regional. R-MC’s coaches, she said, put each of the girls fi rst.

“Head coach Kevin Proffi tt and I have been talking since my freshman year of high school and he has been nothing but understanding and helpful throughout my commitment process,” Barton said. “Assistant coach Bailey has helped me with the mental and physical aspects of softball. He has always put the girls fi rst and will give his all to bettering the team.”

Barton has also been receiving lessons from assistant coach Amanda Sopko since freshman year.

“She has improved my hitting and slapping skills more than I could’ve ever imagined,” Barton said, “and Coach [Dana] Wood knows exactly what I’m doing wrong and how to fi x it.

“Both the coaches and players at R-MC dedicate their time every day to bettering themselves and each other,” Barton said. “That is a team I would love to be a part of.”

When it came to meeting the players, Barton said her favorite part was that “they truly understand how to talk to us because they have been through it. They answered all our questions and told us exactly what it would be like to play DIII softball.”

Barton feels that Randolph-Macon is the best fi t for her because she’s never wanted to attend a large school – she feels she learns better in smaller classes with smaller teacher-to-student ratios.

“All the professors at RandolphMacon have an open-door policy, meaning we can meet with them oneon-one whenever we need to discuss homework or diffi cult topics.”

She loves the campus, describing it as “beautiful,” and with the school being centered in Ashland, it’s only 45 minutes from her house.

She wants to major in Pre-Law and pursue a career as an IP attorney or family lawyer. After college, she plans on attending a law school like the University of Richmond or William and Mary to further her knowledge and pursue an internship.

When it comes to R-MC’s softball program, she feels that her speed will help the team physically, and her attitude will help mentally.

“I’m a slapper (slap hitter), so my speed on the bases is where I contribute,” Barton said. “My positivity on and off the fi eld will encourage girls to have fun and do what they love.”

As part of Powhatan softball’s varsity unit, Barton pitched in some games her sophomore season, has experience at several infi eld positions and will be counted on to anchor the infi eld for the Indians this coming spring.

Learn about Powhatan High School senior Kayla Davis’ commitment to attend and play softball for Randolph-Macon College in the Oct. 28, 2020, print edition of the Powhatan Today!

In 2019, she batted .343 and had a fi elding average of .980 (1 error in 50 attempts) while helping a young Powhatan softball team go 15-6 and reach the regional semifi nals after it lost seven starters following its state runner-up season in 2018.

Powhatan head softball coach Marie Crump praised Barton’s good speed on the bases and described how the senior has “really developed her defensive skills the last few years.”

“Her versatility is a real plus,” Crump said.

One of Barton’s current teammates, Kayla Davis, is set to join her on Randolph-Macon’s softball team next year.

“I am thrilled to have Kayla remain a teammate throughout my college experience. She pushes me to do my best and is always focused on improving herself and others,” Barton said. “Kayla is not only a solid player but also one of the smartest girls I know.

“If I ever need help with homework I know I can go to Kayla,” Barton added. “This will be an especially important quality to have in a teammate at Randolph-Macon because it is a DIII school focused on mainly academic excellence.”

Barton has been playing softball since she was 5 years old. She fi rst got into it through her older sister, whose games she would watch while growing up.

“My dad would always play with me and my sister in the yard and I had so much fun,” Barton said. “My family has always been competitive, and playing with my sister only made the game more competitive.”

In addition to her speed, Barton’s competitive attitude has contributed to her successes.

“I have been raised and coached to have a ‘never quit’ mentality, and that has made me a go-getter,” Barton said. “If I see an opportunity, I take it, and that’s the mentality you have to have to be successful in softball.”

Her favorite part of softball would be the qualities she’s picked up throughout her years of playing.

“I have met so many amazing girls who have bettered me as a player,” Barton said. “To be successful in softball, you have to be individually focused, but also a team player.

“Finding a balance between those two qualities has made me a better person all-around.”

Some of the major achievements Barton has been a part of throughout her softball career include going to nationals with her travel team, the Hanover Hornets 18u Keys, for the last three years in a row, as well as going to multiple camps, which helped her to put herself out there for coaches to see her play.

To Barton, being part of Powhatan softball has probably infl uenced her the most to continue softball throughout college.

“It taught me that, even though some days might be rough, that I could get through it and become a better player,” Barton said. “Coach Crump has bettered me as a player more than I could ever imagine. She pushes us hard each day to help us remain focused and reach our goals.

“Coach [Linda] Farmer always knows what to say to inspire us to play our best,” Barton said. “Coach [Sami Byerly], who is a former player, works with me individually to better my slapping ability and mental approach.

“I could not have gotten where I am today without being a part of Powhatan softball.”
