STOPS AT EVERY HOME IN TOWN
Most support school district’s budget goals
By Melody Kinser
mkinser@mechlocal.com
While praise and support for the
superintendent’s proposal dominated
the pre-budget hearing during the
Oct. 12 Hanover County School Board
meeting, one speaker took issue with
salaries, particularly that of Dr. Stewart
D. Roberson.
Gerry Baugh said he wanted to talk
about “the high salaries of some of the
people on the board and mainly our
superintendent.” He said Roberson’s
salary is about $240,000, which
includes $46,000 in compensation.
He then compared enrollment
numbers between Hanover, 18,000,
and Chesterfield County, 58,000, not-
ing the superintendent of the latter, Dr.
Marcus Newsome, had a base salary of
$207,000 before agreeing to a 7 percent
pay cut last year.
Baugh said Gov. Bob McDonnell’s
salary for 2010 is $166,250, “with
responsibilities for more than 100,000
state workers and all services offered to
residents in the state of Virginia.”
He said Fairfax County has the
12th largest school system in the
nation, with its superintendent, Jack
D. Dale, employed with a contract for
$292,469.
Baugh said Dale manages 22,000
employees in a district with 173,000
students (the website, http://www.fcps.
edu, lists a figure of 175,296 for the
2010-2011 term). The budget for the
division is $2.2 billion.
“I think the teachers of this county
are doing a tremendous job and I
commend them,” he added. He closed
his comments by saying “The School
Board and the administrative side are
getting totally out of hand. I think the

Lama Farm’s 300th anniversary celebration as a
real homecoming.
“I
love the experience” is how
Abigail George summed up
her debut into the world of
pageants.
On July 11, she participated in the
Nationals’ 2010 Miss Jr. Preteen Richmond
Pageant at the Carpenter Theatre at
CenterStage in Richmond.
While it may have been her first venture
into pageants, Abigail captured second runner-up in her division.
The 8-year-old was more than satisfied
with her showing in her first pageant: “I
think I did pretty well.”
She said she especially enjoyed “hanging out with the girls.” Another bonus, she
said, was making new
friends with the other
contestants.
“I love making
friends,” which she
said was her favorite
part of the pageant
process.
Dressing up like
a princess also was
appealing to Abigail.
“I loved the formal
wear; I wore a pink
Cinderella dress.”
Her mother, Lisa,
pointed out that the
ABIGAIL
gown was flamingo
GEORGE
pink.
To continue into
the pageant, Abigail went through an interview with judges. Those scores enabled her
to advance to the pageant.
She also liked taking part in the casual
wear portion. “I ripped off my hat,” showing
how she tossed her shoulder-length hair.
For the pageant, her hair flowed with
curls.
While talent is a part of that particular
pageant, Abigail wants to pursue a singing
career. A favorite song is “He Reigns” by
Newsboys.

Abigail George said she felt like Cinderella
in a gown her mother Lisa described as
flamingo pink. She holds the trophy and
flowers she received as second runnerup in the 2010 Miss Jr. Preteen Richmond
Pageant.
Typical for her age, Abigail also is a fan
of Miley Cyrus and likes to sing “Every Rose
Has Its Thorn.”
When she isn’t thinking about her newfound enthusiasm for pageants, Abigail likes
to rollerskate and iceskate.
“Me and Taylor (Little, her best friend)
do play Barbies sometimes,” she added.
Other interests include Justin Bieber “and
I like the laptop and the iPad and iPod.”
Abigail also is the daughter of Mike
George of Hanover. “I’m the baby,” she said
when asked if she has siblings. She has two
brothers, Justin and Noah.
She is a third grade student at Rural
Point Elementary School and said reading is
her favorite subject.
Now that she has a pageant “under her
belt,” Abigail has her sights set on “a big one
in Florida” in December.

Chimp incident dominated county meeting
By Katherine Calos
Media General News Service
Chimpanzees have a way of stealing the show, even when they’re not
on the agenda.
That’s why the most talked-about
item from last Wednesday’s meeting of the Hanover County Board
of Supervisors is likely to be a resident’s concern about the primates
at Windy Oaks Animal Farm in
Mechanicsville.
Carl Davis, who spoke during
Citizens’ Time, is a neighbor of the
private zoo, from which six chimps
escaped July 21.
During the incident, Windy Oaks
owner Curtis Shepperson was able to
get the four females back inside but
called for help to recapture the two
males. One male chimp remained
out overnight.
Davis said he received a letter from
Shepperson saying that Shepperson
has applied for a conditional-use
permit to keep four of the chimps on
his farm. Two of the chimps from the
summer have been returned to other

owners, Davis said.
Shepperson has had primates at
his farm since the 1990s and has
allowed groups to visit.
Davis asked the supervisors to
“give serious thought to this permit
because if anything serious happens
as a result of these animals getting
loose, the county will also be deemed
culpable.”
After the meeting, Davis said
noise is also an issue because he can
hear the monkeys from his property.

the county is not monitoring this situation close enough. There have been
several escapes, and the owner has
been less than professional in the way
in which he has aided in the capture.”
If Shepperson closes the facility to
the public, Davis said, “it does away
with any need to have these animals
at this location, if indeed there was
ever a need in the first place.”
A phone message seeking comment from Shepperson was not

a 4½-foot spider monkey followed

When animal-control officers
and people from the zoo came to his
house, the monkey opened its mouth
as if to bite and Davis saw “canine
teeth much longer and larger than
any large breed of dog,” Davis wrote
in a letter to the editor.

From the editor
Salvation Army’s Red Kettle
Campaign needs volunteers
Christmastime in a small town was magical: lights, greenery and ornaments were found in every imaginable location to decorate. Storefronts
came alive with the sights of the season.
And the sound of bells ringing echoed down the streets. That sound
brings back fond memories of the holiday season. The Salvation Army Red
Kettle Campaign is a staple in communities across the nation.
Memories of keeping a steady pace as a bellringer volunteer with civic
and church organizations come to mind. Despite the temperature (and
sometimes it was really cold!), knowing what a difference those donations
would make was quite an incentive.
It was so satisfying when a shopper would drop some cash in the kettle
to support the cause.
While you will see bellringers stationed at various retail stores, a familiar
spot in my hometown was in front of G.C. Murphy (also known as “The
Dime Store” — now I’m really showing my age!). This location was pretty
much in the heart of the downtown.
Once again, The Salvation Army is gearing up for its Red Kettle
Campaign and you can help. Jeff Baldwin, public relations director for The
Salvation Army, said, “This year, more than ever, volunteers will be critical
to the overall success of our Red Kettle Campaign.”
Sadly, he said, “On any given day, over half of our sites are silent with no
one there to ring the bell. Every penny, nickel, dime and dollar bill adds up,
but without volunteer manpower, we can’t possible reach our goal.”
This year’s campaign will kick off on Friday, Nov. 12, and continue
through Friday, Dec. 24 (Christmas Eve).
Funds raised through the Red Kettle Campaign provide assistance to
thousands of children and families and support the programs and services
of The Salvation Army throughout the year.
If you’d like to volunteer, call Capt. Natalie Sayre at 433-1684 or register
online at www.registertoring.com/centralvirginia.
The sounds of those bells mean so much to so many at Christmas. Will
you help?

address concerns related to the safety of our
Good News & Celebrations...
We are happy to recognize seniors
Robert “Fowler” Evans and Philip S.
Ivanhoe as Commended Students in the
2011 National Merit Scholarship Program.
Commended students represent some of
the most academically talented students
in the country, placing among the top five
percent of more than 1.5 million students
who participated. Fowler and Philip have
received certificates and congratulations on
their achievement.
Lee-Davis has been designated a
Virginia Naturally School for the second
year. Virginia Naturally Schools is the
official environmental education school
recognition program of the Commonwealth,
administered by the Department of Game
and Inland Fisheries with support from the
Department of Education, Department of
Environmental Quality and other resource
agencies. This program recognizes the
wonderful efforts of many Virginia schools
to increase the environmental awareness and
stewardship of our youngest citizens.
In addition, The Lee-Davis Outdoor
Classroom has been certified as an official
Monarch Butterfly Waystation by Monarch
Watch. Monarch waystations are places that
provide resources necessary for monarchs
to produce successive generations and
sustain their migration. The Lee-Davis
Outdoor Classroom has been included in the
International Monarch Waystation Registry.
We received a certificate and sign that
identifies the sign as a monarch habitat.
Congratulations and thanks to senior
Brandon Stroble, who spearheaded and
completed a project for his Eagle Scout
requirements. He is a member of Troop
523 at Cool Spring Baptist Church. He and
several other members of his scout troop
constructed four picnic tables for the LeeDavis Outdoor Classroom. This will give the
area much-needed seating for students. They
also mulched, cleaned up the area and cut the
grass. The work was done on two Saturdays
during the summer.
AP Science students have the opportunity
to attend three AP exam preparatory sessions
sponsored by the Virginia Advanced Study
Strategies (VASS) grant. The dates for these
sessions are: February 5, 2011 at Thomas

Lee-Davis NJROTC…
On Friday September 17 L-cadets from
the NJROTC unit attended an air show at
Naval Air Station Oceana, Virginia Beach,
an all-day event. The air show was amazing:
it included how flight mechanics and
piloting equipment are used at their best,
the Navy’s Blue Angles demonstrated how
military precision is used during flight, and
there was an H-60 Black Hawk helicopter
flown by the United States Army. Most of
the cadets returned with more knowledge
on the military’s aviation, mechanics of
flight and overall respect for the men and
women training in the Armed Forces. But
mainly, the cadets learned about teamwork,
dedication, military precision and the motto
“Honor, Courage and Commitment.” We at
Lee-Davis NJROTC emphasize teamwork
and the “can do” attitude. That was the true
learning experience of this field trip. (Report
by Cadet Nathan Greene, Assistant Public
Affairs Officer, Lee-Davis NJROTC.)
In September, Lee-Davis’ NJROTC
13-man Orienteering Team captured the
competition’s overall winning title, the
overall title in the Beginners category, and
four individual team medals for winning
First and Third Place in the individual
Beginners team category at the coveted
LT Titan Fall Orienteering Classic, York
River State Park, Williamsburg, VA They
competed among 14 schools with a total of
114 participants. This was the Unit’s fi rst
experience in competitive Orienteering
(land navigation). The stellar performance of
the 13-man team was outstanding. For many
of the cadets, this was their fi rst experience
in Orienteering. Although the course was
challenging, the five, two-man and one,
three-man team persevered through the heat,
the swamps and difficult terrain in record
time. Noteworthy performances by Cadets
Terry Hewell and Gregory Jackson, First
Place Beginners category team winners and
Cadets Nicholaus Friedhoff and Catherine
Schumacher (a cross-over Hanover High
Cadet), Third Place Beginners category
team winners. However, it certainly took the
skills and abilities of the entire team to win
the overall competition title—JOB VERY
WELL DONE!
IB Corner. . .
The IB Biology students participated
in a field trip with the Chesapeake Bay
Foundation last week where they conducted
both abiotic and biotic water quality tests.
The students learned how their actions,
even here in the Richmond area, affect
the Chesapeake Bay. In November, the IB
Diploma students have an opportunity to
visit Challenge Discovery and participate
in team building activities; this will count
toward their CAS requirement. Field trip
packets were distributed last week.
The students also received their exam
registration packets for the May 2011 testing
session. The fees and forms are due to Mrs.
Smith in Guidance by October 20. Thank
you to the parents and students for helping
this procedure go smoothly.

program at Lee-Davis, please contact Lesa

see Marshall Buckles’ letter in last week’s
Mechanicsville Local recognizing Del.
Chris Peace as “an outstanding Virginia
delegate whose constituents are well served
by him.”
Countless pages of this newspaper have
spent the past 12 months debating and
defaming the politics and politicians who
challenge the values of almost all of us, on
the left the middle and the right, often with
good reason.
At the end of the day, however, Buckles
reminds us that as a young father and
community leader, Peace is an excellent
representative who should not be swept up
in that melee.
The Gardasil vaccine opt-out is just one
of many examples.
Del. Peace always embodies a politic of
years gone by. He is a statesmen in the making, reminding us that rational people can
disagree and still work to build a more just
and compassionate community.
If we had more like him, returning our
discourse to civility, we would likely all fee
better about the direction our country is
going.
Sometimes we are going to disagree
with one another.
But even when we disagree we should
have the integrity to find a path forward
that seeks to serve our community better.

Memories took top billing at Lama Farm
By Melody Kinser
hrowing a party for a 300th
birthday is no easy feat – but
Rich and Linda Wooddy did
just that on Saturday, Oct. 9,
for their beloved home, Lama Farm.
And the result, Linda said, “was
a wonderful day filled with laughter,
memories and love. There are so
many memories of that day.”
Descendants of the original owners the LeMay family — Beth O’Leary,
Joe Lokey, Jack and Jeananne Turner
— returned.
“Had it not been for Pierre (Peter)
LeMay coming to Virginia from
France in 1701, there would be no
celebration,” Linda said. “His five
years as an indentured servant 300
years ago brought together 100 people
to celebrate ‘him’ and the house we
believe he built for future LeMays,
Andersons, Alexanders, Russells,
Justice/Watts, Goldsmiths, Kennedy/
Polanskis and Wooddys.”
“We all owe a great deal of gratitude to Peter LeMay and the LeMay
family — his legacy lives on at Lama,”
Linda added.
Rich and Linda bought Lama
Farm on McClellan Road in the Old
Church area in 1998. And with that
purchase came a house and property
rich in history.
With a long drive leading to the
stately farmhouse, the event, which
brought together descendants of residents and former residents, provided
a sense of “coming home.”
Upon arriving, guests “stopped in
the front, picked up their name tags
and proceeded to walk around back
to the patio to be greeted with a glass

of wine and a table filled with hors
d’oeuvres.” The menu, according to
Linda, included shrimp, stuffed mushrooms and several cheese spreads.
“I have never met so many wonderful people,” she added.
During the social hour, many of
the families went inside the house.
The two oldest members of the
Alexander family — Claire Alexander
Hodnett, the only surviving child of
Laura and Willard Alexander, and her
sister-in-law, Alice Alexander — sat
in Laura and Willard’s bedroom and
reminisced about their youth.
“They had the full attention of
their families and ours,” Linda said.
Guests then gathered for a lunch
of baked chicken breast, seasoned
potatoes and green beans. The blessing was offered by Pastor Kerry
Boggs of the Mechanicsville United
Methodist Church.
After lunch, the Alexanders
presented the Wooddys with what
Linda described as “a generous check
to purchase a tree to be called ‘The
Alexander Tree’ for future generations.”
Alice Alexander and her daughter
Terry returned the original dinner
bell, which hung at Lama for more
than 100 years (1854-1959). “The
bell has come home. They were very
touching moments for us,” Linda said.
After a few speeches, introductions and thank yous, Pastor Carter
Goolsby of the Mechanicsville
Christian Center prayed a blessing
over the house and the families of
Lama.
Bluegrass music was performed
by Allen King, Hud Baldwin and Phil
Hughes.
——Owners of Lama include:
☞ Believed to be a house on
Chemokin Plantation before it was
named Lama — 1710 to 1742
☞ Charles and Susannah Turner
LeMay — 1742 to 1798
☞ William Turner and Allis
LeMay — 1768 to 1798
☞ Robert Anderson’s father
most likely owned Lama and Robert
inherited it. Robert married Nancy
(LeMay?) who is believed to be the
LeMay for whom Robert Anderson
named the house — 1799 to 1854
☞ William Joseph/Judith Burnette
Alexander — 1854 to 1911
☞ Willard Monroe/Laura Douglas
Alexander — 1911 to 1959
☞ Herman and Mariam Lukhard
(they never moved in) — 1959 to 1960
☞ Edward and Eunice Russell
— 1960 to 1980
☞ Harry and Frances Justice and
Carol Watts — 1980 to 1989

days of big government are getting out of hand.”
The other speakers recommended the budget goals be
approved as set forth by Dr.
Roberson.
Cindy Hartung, representing
the Special Education Advisory
Committee, thanked the school
district for the accomplishments
of the past year and urged funding for the Parent Resource
Center. She also asked that an
investigation be initiated into
transportation concerns, specifically afterschool care.
The president of the Hanover
Professional Educators, Angela
Downer, also asked that the
budget goals be approved as set
forth by the superintendent. She
talked about the system maintaining a competitive edge. Her
organization will submit results
of a member survey focusing on
budget goals at the December
meeting. Downer said this is
the “third school year Hanover
County teachers have not
received a pay raise. I believe
now is the time to award. Costs
are not going down and morale
is not going up.”
With a new school year,
Shellie Waldron, president
of the Hanover Education
Association, said “Everything
seems to be in place. But things
are different. Colleagues from
our buildings are missing due
to budget cuts. Things are different. Programs aren’t there for
our students.”
She asked about programs
being cut with the 2011-2012
budget process under way.
“How many more support staff
and teachers will lose their
jobs? Will there be funds for a
cost of living raise, or funds for
the index pay scale the HEA
has been discussing with Dr.
Roberson and his senior staff?”
She said her organization does
not know the answers to those
questions.
A Virginia Education
Association survey conducted
during the summer showed
86 percent agreed the role of
teachers is more important
than ever. “The most concerning issue and most likely to have
the most negative effect was
the loss of teachers due to the
budget cuts.”
Another concern, Waldron
said, was the increase in class
size. “Quality education and
full time experienced teachers
are what the majority of those
surveyed want in the school
settings.”
She said that quality education also extends to long-term
substitutes, with the HEA seeking policy wording for them.
“The 20 consecutive day rule
significantly impacts the longterm substitutes in the event
they or a family member has
an illness or something worse
when it comes to their pay and
how they can survive in their
economical situation.”
The HEA, Waldron added,
is in the process of developing
a survey for members and nonmembers and welcomed input
from the school district leaders.
Vern Inge, president of the
Hanover Education Foundation,
expressed his organization’s
support for the superintendent’s
proposal. He said the class size
initiative is “very important,” as
is maintaining “our competitiveness in the job market.” He
also said it was “important to
be able to pay and attract.” Inge
encouraged maximizing efficiency. He then responded to
Baugh’s comments, saying the
district has an “absolutely outstanding superintendent and
senior staff. It starts from the
top, the School Board itself. We
certainly need to continue to
attract and retain the best and
the brightest.”
Representing the Business
Advisory Committee, Owen
Matthews said the group supports Roberson’s goals. He also
said the district should “support opportunities to improve
student information system
and reporting system.” He
urged school leaders to “create efficiencies, increase classroom learning, take an initiative within the state funding
process.” Matthews said the
School Board needs “to advocate that the General Assembly
not lower K-12 funding levels”
and members should “advocate that the General Assembly
minimize or eliminate unnecessary regulations which impede
classroom learning.” He also
said the system should maintain
its commitment to encourage
public and private partnerships
through programs like Partners

Education Foundation. He
called the county school district
“student-centered, communitydriven.”
The Maggie L. Walker
Governor’s
School
for
Government and International
Studies received praise from
three speakers. Patricia Sigler
shared a letter from Judy M.
Thomas, whose son attends
the school. The opportunity
has provided him with an extra
challenge to thrive academically. Sigler said the experience has
been transformational for her
son. Lucy Dacus, a sophomore
at the school, said an example
of the opportunities afforded
students included meetings and
conversations with French- and
Russian-speaking groups in
their native languages. “It’s a
place where we feel at home
and we feel like our learning styles can really flourish.”
Rusty Ziegler, in seeking continued support for the school,

Hanover County Community Services is the
only local government agency in its category to
be recognized as a 2010 “Industry Leader” by the
National Safety Council.
The department’s employees worked 250,529
hours without any time lost to injuries in 2009.
Only 81 companies nationwide were honored
with the award, which recognizes the top 5 percent of member companies, units and facilities
that meet safety criteria.
“Receiving the Industry Leader Award is a
tremendous accomplishment for director Tim
Slaven, the department’s Safety Committee
and the entire staff,” Greg Smithson, Hanover
County’s safety/risk manager, said. “To complete an entire year without any type of injury is
remarkable.”
Hanover County and 19 of its departments received the National Safety Council’s
Occupational Excellence Award. Departments
were the Assessor’s Office, the Commissioner
of Revenue’s office, the County’s Attorney’s
office, Building Inspection, Communications,
Community Resources, Community Services,
Finance, Fire/EMS, Fleet Services, Human
Resources, Information Technology, Internal
Audit, Parks & Recreation, Planning, Public
Utilities, Public Works, the Sheriff ’s Office, and
Voter Registration.
The Occupational Excellence Achievement
Award recognizes participants that have reported
injuries and illnesses that involved days away
from work.
The days missed must be equal to or less than
50 percent of the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
rate for its code. Participants also must have had
no fatalities during the calendar year.
“These awards reflect the hard work that
managers and employees have done to create a
safe workplace in Hanover County,” Smithson
said. “In order to receive this kind of recognition you must have a culture that rewards safe
practices.”
Hanover County has a Safety Steering Team
made up of the departments in the county that
typically have the most exposure to hazards
because of the jobs that they do.
The Safety Steering Team meets twice a year
to take a global look at the county’s safety performance and provide input on the future direction
of Hanover’s safety program.
Hanover Community Services has 11
employees on its Health, Safety and Security
Committee: Susan Cunningham, Cheryl
Llewellyn, Stacy Johnson-Moore, Florence
Watt, Kari Calabria, Sharon Williams, Christine
Luchie, Steve Trivett, Dorothy Gibson, Amy
Taylor and Angela Ward.

Rabies vaccination clinics set
A recent incident in western Hanover County
exposed a dog and its owner to rabies.
The owner is receiving rabies treatment and
the dog, which did not have proven vaccination
against rabies, will be euthanized because of the
risk.
This was the 23rd case of animal rabies in
Hanover so far this year.
All dogs and cats (including so-called ‘barn
cats’) are required by law to be vaccinated for
rabies at four months of age.
You also must have tags and a valid license
proving the vaccination.
Hanover Animal Control makes it easy for
people to get their pets vaccinated by holding
rabies vaccination clinics throughout the fall and
winter.
Vaccines will be administered at a cost of $7
per dog or cat, significantly less than you would
pay normally when taking your pet to the veterinarian for a shot.
The clinics will be held:
✓ 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Oct. 30, at the
Montpelier Center for Arts and Education at
17205 Mountain Road in Montpelier.
✓ 1 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 12, at the
Mechanicsville Hospital at 7381 Mechanicsville
Turnpike.
✓ 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Dec. 11, at
Gander Mountain at 10150 Lakeridge Parkway..
✓ 1 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 5, 2011, at
the East Hanover Rescue Squad at 8105 Walnut
Grove Road in Mechanicsville.
At each of these clinics, the veterinarian will
administer the shots to the pet at your vehicle
without you having to bring the animal inside.
The vaccination is good for up to three years
unless the pet has never had a rabies vaccination
before, in which case it is good for one year.
Rabies continues to be a significant public
health concern in Hanover County.
In the last three years, there have been 89
confirmed cases of animal rabies in the county,
and a number of people have had to get expensive rabies shots after being exposed, largely to
rabid cats.
This year, infected animals have included a
cat, a bat, raccoons, skunks and foxes.
The incidents have occurred throughout the
county, in both suburban and rural areas.
If you see any animal that is acting strangely
or appears sick, report it immediately to Hanover
County Animal Control. The emergency phone
number is 365-6140 (or 911).
For more information about rabies or the
upcoming rabies vaccination clinics in Hanover
County, call Animal Control at 365-6485.

First anniversary
Tom Haynie/The Local
Todd and Barbara Atkinson opened Battlefield Service Center in October 2009. In
celebration of their first year anniversary, they purchased a new state-of-the-art front
end alignment computer system from Carquest of Mechanicsville. Ronnie Sanderson
and Mickey Wilmouth of Mechanicsville Carquest recently visited with Todd and Barbara
Atkinson along with their factory-trained ASE certified technicians, Troy Allen and Joey
Henderson, to discuss the features of this new piece of equipment. Battlefield Service is a
complete auto service facility located right off U.S. 360 and Walnut Grove Road. Shown are,
from left, Sanderson, Allen, Wilmouth, the Atkinsons and Henderson.

A kindergarten teacher
at Kersey Creek Elementary
School, Esther McDermott,
shared concerns with the School
Board, including reducing class
size, making faculty and staff
salaries a priority, and reimbursing dual enrollments. She
urged the School Board to ask
the Hanover County Board of
Supervisors to consider a property tax increase.
Keeping musical programs
in the schools was addressed
by Carol Wagner of Montpelier,
who said she was speaking on
behalf of the Patrick Henry
High School band director
(Amanda Peters). Wagner listed benefits her children have
experienced, especially a son
who has Asperger’s syndrome.
“Band kept him in school,” she
said. A possible area in which
to trim the budget, she said, was
“do not let these buses go in and
out of every cul-de-sac. If they
just did the major loop road, it
could save time and money on
transportation.”

The Ugandan Orphans Choir performed before a capacity crowd during the 10:15 a.m.
worship service at Northside Baptist on Oct. 10. The children, between the ages of 9 and
12, combined traditional African songs and moving Christian hymns with enthusiastic
rhythm and dance that brought the congregation to its feet. During the performance,
music director Pam Cross and many others were “volunteered” from the audience to
dance with the children. Dr. Jeff Scott, senior pastor of the church, said, “There is no
reason for church to be dull. With the music of the drums and the energetic movement
of the Ugandan children, every toe was tapping and every face smiling.” Members of
the congregation contributed nearly $1,000 to help with the ministry of the Ugandan
Orphan’s Choir and assist Childcare Worldwide with feeding programs, medical clinics and
education programs for children in the developing world.

It’s a great chance to learn and
have a great time.”
In the competition, teams
of five, with an approved coach
(usually a teacher), learn to
defend a computer network
from real-life computer threat
scenarios.
In the fall, hundreds of
teams square off online, using
special software and programs
provided by CyberPatriot to
competitively solve vulnerabilities in their network.
The top teams then compete again in a series of online
rounds to determine finalists
for an all-expenses-paid trip
to Washington, D.C., and the
Championship Round at the
Gaylord National Convention
Center in April 2011.
Any high school can field
a team for the Open Division,
while JROTC units from any
service or Civil Air Patrol are
also eligible to field a team for
the all-service Commander-inChief ’s Division.
The educational experience and materials are identical
for students in either division.
Coaches can learn more about
CyberPatriot and sign up
at www.uscyberpatriot.org.

the Lee-Davis’ football field on
Friday night, the Hawks had
pulled off a 21-6 victory over
their cross-town rivals. But those

A mudder is a race horse that performs well on muddy track. The rainy
conditions turned Friday’s game between
the No. 10 ranked Varina Blue Devils (11,3-3) and the No. 6 Atlee Raiders into a
real mudder bowl. The Blue Devils used

19-9.
The key play came when the Raiders’
vaunted defense gave up a 94-yard touchdown early in the game on a busted play.
In his first start of the season, Varina
junior quarterback Maurice Canady (22
carries, 194 yards) picked up a fumble on
a high snap and raced up the middle for
the game’s first touchdown.
De-Shavon Hayes also contributed to
their running efficiency, finishing with 97
yards and a touchdown. Canady scored
again in the second quarter. At halftime,
the Raiders were down 13-0 and forced
into an uphill battle.
Atlee was able to move the ball at
times in the first half. However, they
were unable to punch it in. Poor execution, according to Johnson thwarted their
efforts. On the other hand, Varina was
unable to extend their lead against the
Atlee defense.
“At halftime I told them to stay focused
and keep going,” said Atlee Raider head
coach Roscoe Johnson. “I tried to tell
these guys it’s like a boxing match. We

Confederates pluck No. 9 Hawks 3-2
Lee-Davis boys
win volleyball war
with Hanover
By Charlie Leffler
cleffler@mechlocal.com
The odds were decidedly
against the Lee-Davis boys volleyball team when they hosted
Hanover last Thursday night.
The Hawks came into the contest ranked No. 9 in the Central
Region with only one Capital
District loss. Meanwhile the
Confederates had struggled
throughout the early volleyball
season and came into the match
with a disappointing 3-5 district
record.
But when county teams face
off against one another, past
performances and records go
out the window.
For over two and a half
hours the Hawks and C-feds
battled it out in a virtual volleyball war. Despite numerous
setbacks and miscues on both
sides of the net, neither team
was willing to cede defeat. In
the end, Lee-Davis overcame a
stalwart Hanover effort to take
the win 25-23, 15-25, 28-26,
27-29, 15-11.
After a sluggish start,
Confederate head coach Sally
Smith believes her team is playing their best so far this year.
“We’re going right where we
need to be this time of the season,” she said. “We started off a
little slow and we’re escalating to
the right point now.
“We finally put it all together
tonight and had fun while they
were playing,” Smith said. “It
was a good team win.”
And having fun seems to be a
key to the Confederates’ success.
“When we get serious and play
tight that’s the worst part,” Smith
said. “We shut down. So we have
to stay relaxed and they’ve got to
be themselves because if they try
to be something they’re not, it’s
40
not good ,” she laughed.
While not wanting to diminish the C-feds win, Hanover
head coach Mike Rohr admitted
his team simply did not play well
throughout. “They deserved to
beat us,” he said. “They played
better than we did. We weren’t
sharp tonight at all. We made a
lot of mental errors and didn’t
play real clean.”
Hanover swept Lee-Davis
when the two teams met on
Sept. 21, so it’s possible the
Hawks were caught off guard
by how much the C-feds had
improved. “They played a lot
better than they played against
us the first time,” Rohr said.
The first game saw a nipand-tuck battle early but with
junior Will Dowdy at serve, LeeDavis reeled off four straight
to take a 10-15 lead over the
Hawks.
Trailing 15-10, Hanover
came back on a kill from Drew
Hazelgrove, then a pair of aces
by Todd Moring bracketed a
C-fed lane violation to pull the
Hawks within one.
Lee-Davis edged back in
front 21-16, highlighted by an
ace from Coltin Powell and a kill
form Ben Turner but once gain
Hanover answered to trim the
margin to one.
The C-feds moved to game
point but kills from Hanover’s
Cameron Holl and Stephen
Alexander threatened to extend
the game before Powell took
the win for Lee-Davis on a kill,
25-23.
The teams switched sides for
the second game but momentum stayed on the one end of the
court. This time it was Hanover
taking 20-12 lead then holding
off the C-feds for a 25-15 win.
Game three saw the C-feds
race out to a seemingly insurmountable 9-1 lead. But the
Hawks did not throw in the
towel and slowly chipped away.
Trailing 11-18, Hanover got

back in the game scoring two
points for every one given up to
pull within three, 21-24.
A kill by Peck was followed
by Alexander scoring on two
kills and a tip shot to give the
Hawks a 25-24 lead which eventually moved to 26-25.
Having given up a substantial lead, the situation was not
unlike many Lee-Davis has faced
throughout the year. “In the past
we’ve been getting down on ourselves and we wouldn’t be able to
come back, so we’ve been working on that,” Smith said. “We’ve
been running drills in practice
and I guess they finally paid off.
We’ve been working on attitudes
and mental thinking most of
the time. That’s more than the
physical part of the game.”
Lee-Davis found inspiration
when a block from Joe Spengler
and Powell forestalled the outcome.
A Hawks shot into the net
put the C-feds at game point
and a Hanover miscommunication gave the game to Lee-Davis
28-26.
“The fact that we came back
and made it a game was pretty
impressive,” Rohr said. “We still
didn’t play all that great.”
Game four brought a see-saw
battle. After Lee-Davis raced out
to a 3-0 lead, only two points
separated the two teams until
the end.
Knotted at 27, Hanover’s
Nick Allen gave the Hawks an
advantage on a kill. Then with
Hazelgrove at serve, a Lee-Davis
return went out of bounds to
knot up the night 2-2 on a 29-27
Hanover win.
The tiebreaker saw Hanover
take a 9-6 lead, which appeared
it would be 10-6 before officials
whistled the Hawks for a violation.
Lee-Davis took advantage to
tie the game at nine on drop
shots from Hank Parsley and
Turner.
The teams were tied at 11
when Lee-Davis was assisted
by Hawk miscues to score four
straight and take the match on a
block from Michael Abbott.
“We’ve had so many hard
fought matches in the last weeks
and it finally comes through on
a big team so it kind of boosts
us,” Smith said. “Hopefully we
can make it into the districts and
go from there.”
Rohr was pleased with his
team’s effort but not their performance. “We showed a lot of
fight,” he said. “But our intensity
level wasn’t where it needed to
be when we started.”
Repeatedly, the Hawks got
away from what they do best.
“I think it was mainly because
of our passing though,” Rohr
said. “We didn’t pass the ball
very well.
“We sort of got into a rut
and going to the same spot over
and over and over again and
they did a good job of recognizing that and taking it away from
us,” Rohr said.
Despite the loss, Hanover

In the fourth quarter,
Ferguson ran two straight quarterback keepers up the middle
for large gains. The change
in strategy seemed to confuse
Varina’s interior defense.
A few plays later, Ferguson
found junior wide receiver Will
McCombs(7 catches, 85 yards,
TD) for a 25-yard touchdown.
Atlee missed the extra point.
The Raiders still had plenty
of time left in the game trailing
13-9 with 9:45 left in the fourth
quarter. Atlee got the ball back
but were unable to get it into
the endzone. The Raiders tried
a fake punt late in the game but
Varinia was ready for them.
“We practice all the time on
different fakes,” Johnson said
of the fake punt. “I knew we
had to try something. Either
taking a chance on a fake punt
or going for it. I just think we
didn’t block up front. They
were prepared.”
Varina got the ball back and
was able to run down the clock
before scoring on a Hayes 4yard run in the final minute.
“I am proud that we finished
the ball game,” Brown said. “The
bottom line is we played a very
experienced team. We beat an
undefeated team. We had been
struggling. We needed it.”

Craven does not want
to see an instance of, ‘if we’d
only known more,’ therefore he continues to talk with
coaches and trainers across the
Commonwealth about EHS
prevention. However, at the
same time he has diversified his
message.
Former Hanover County
Deputy
Commonwealth’s
Attorney and current President
of Allen, Allen, Allen and Allen
law firm Doug Barry has joined
Craven to speak on the legal
ramifications in athletics when
it comes to EHS.
The legal liability of coaches
gained national attention last
summer when Pleasure Ridge
Park (KY) High School’s Jason
Stinson became the first coach
to be criminally charged in the
heat-related death of 15-yearold football player Max Gilpin.
As an ex-FBI agent and exprosecutor, Barry has a diverse
understanding of both criminal
and civil law in Virginia. With
the local law firm, Barry has
also spent much time at seminars and public engagements
lecturing on legal responsibilities. “I do a lot of speaking
on immunity to public servants
and things like that,” he said.
“This kind of ties in with that.”
While Barry’s expertise
concentrates on Virginia law,
he pointed out that any coach,
trainer or assistant coach
deemed negligent in a case
of EHS would probably be
immune to prosecution. “It has
to rise to a higher standard of
gross negligence,” he said.
Likewise, ignoring standard
procedures and available information such as denying ath-
RAIDERS

Varina’s a good ball club. They
were prepared for us. They
were able to run the ball and we
couldn’t stop them.”
The second half efforts of
Raider senior linebacker Josh
Doggett personified Atlee’s
effort whenever the opposing
team’s offense ventured into
scoring position.
“We thought we had two
formations that they struggled
with in the first half,” said Varina
head football coach Stu Brown.
“We thought we had the advantage. The second half they came
back and took those formations
from us. Luckily we got those
two scores. You get it in their
territory and they buckle down.
Josh Doggett to me might be
the best football player in this
region. He single-handley can
stop your running game. When
we got down there old number
42 was in on every play.”
Offensively, Atlee seemed to

Quarterback Drew Ferguson
(20-for-41, 148 yards, TD) got

The Raiders got on the

Another item on Craven’s list
attributing to EHS is increasing
use of supplements and stimulant drinks such as Red Bull,
Monster, etc. On Sept. 22 the
VHSL passed an emergency
resolution to ban the use of
energy drinks during practices
or events in Virginia.
“Here’s an organization that’s
providing leadership to say, ‘the
instances of heat related illness
and what’s considered energy
enhancing drinks- there’s a correlation,” Craven said.
shutout by Midlothian 35-0 last
week after getting off to one of its
best starts in recent history. Even
though it is homecoming for the
Raiders, Johnson says the Varina
game is over and the Armstrong
game is no cake walk.
“Mistakes happen,” Johnson
said. “These guys are young.
They’re in high school not college or the NFL. They gave it
everything they got. Armstrong
is a good team. It is our homecoming but it is going to be a
dogfight. We just got to work
hard this week and get prepared. Coach Robinson has
done a great job of turning that
program around. It is a good
Armstrong team coming.
“We have to stay focused on
what we need to do.”
letes water could lead to gross
negligence charges. “There’s no
room for interpretation of that
the lack of water, dehydration
causes death, would rise to the
level of gross negligence on the
civil side and on the criminal
side.”
But above all else, both
Barry and Craven do not want
to see an athlete dying because
every means of prevention has
not been taken.
“We want to get out in front
of everybody,” Craven said.
“This whole thing is to say;
‘All right, if it didn’t happen in
our community, don’t act like
it can’t happen because where
it’s happening the coaches were
just as good of coaches as what
we have here.”
The pair have already made
a short presentation before the
Henrico County School Board
and are attempting to set up a
more in-detail presentation to
the Hanover County School
Board.

HAWKS
Hanover every bit of it.
Nevertheless,
Hanover,
ranked No. 2 in the TimesDispatch poll, remained undefeated and on top of the Capital
District standings with a 3-0
Capital, 6-0 overall record.
Hanover was led by Deane
Cheatham with 22 carries for
116 yards and three touchdowns.
Quarterback Sam Rogers completed 6-of-9 passes for 65 yards
and ran for 51 yards more. His
counterpart, Israel Vaughan led
Lee-Davis with nine completions in 18 attempts for 101
yards and two interceptions.
Though injury-plagued, the
Confederates (1-2, 2-4) proved
from the start that they were
not going to be pushovers, stopping Hanover on downs on the
Hawks’ first two drives. Hanover
managed to score on its third
drive late in the second quarter,
but those 7 points – from a
1-yard run by Cheatham and
point-after by Matt Palmen –
were all the Hawks could manage until the final minutes of
the game.
“We knew this was coming,”
said Hanover coach Josh Just.
“I wish I was shocked, but I’m
not.”
The critical difference may
have been snapping woes on the
part of Lee-Davis. A bad snap
cost it an extra point when it had
a chance to tie the game in the

third quarter, and bad snaps led
to fumbles and losses – though
fortunately none for turnovers
– that snuffed the life out of
drives when the Confederates
seemed ready to score.
“They could have easily beat
us,” Just said. “It’s not so much
that we didn’t play well, it’s that
they played extremely well.”
The two teams were closely matched. Hanover had
12 first downs and 271 yards
total offense. Lee-Davis had
13 first downs and 202 yards
total offense. The main differences were in turnovers – the
Confederates had two interceptions in the final four minutes
of the game that doomed their
comeback hopes – and lost
yardage. The Hawks had two
plays that lost nine yards on two
plays, while the Confederates
had eight plays that lost 46
yards.
Having already defeated
Highland Springs and Varina,
Just said that Lee-Davis was the
most physical team his Hawks
had faced all year. The compliment was one that Confederate
coach Zac Hayden appreciated.
But he said his team was still
disappointed with the loss.
“They’re down,” Hayden
said. “Anytime you lose, and you
lose to a rival, and you lose the
way we did – in a hard-fought
game, just at the end we couldn’t
finish it to win – it’s going to be
hard on you. It’s the nature of

the game.”
The Confederates scored
on the first drive of the third
quarter on a 35-yard run by
Emmit Atkins with 9:12 left, but
the point-after attempt failed.
Hanover failed to mount much
of a response, and Lee-Davis
kept a long drive going despite
three fumbles. The third fumble,
which led to a loss of 11 yards,
kept the Confederates out of the
end zone, and their 35-yard field
goal attempt failed – but they
downed the ball on the Hanover
1-yard line.
The two teams traded
scoreless drives until mid-way
though the fourth quarter, when
Hanover got back in sync on
offense and drove 79 yards
to score on a 1-yard run by
Cheatham. Palmen’s extra point
gave the Hawks a 14-6 lead with
4:24 left in the game.
The Confederates were
determined to respond, but on
their next-to-last drive Vaughan
was sacked on the first play, had
a pass dropped on the second,
and threw an interception to
Shreve Rohle on the third.
“I just knew we needed to
make a good play,” said Rohle
of his game-saving interception. “We just needed the ball,
to get back and to score. So I just
stepped up and saw the ball and
picked it.”
“We were just trying to make
a play there at the end of the
game,” Hayden said. “We had
to make a play to score and try
to win the game. We had to do
that. Sometimes when you try to
make a play, things happen.”
Hanover scored again, covering the 40 yards to the goal
line in about a minute and scoring on another 1-yard run by
Cheatham.
Despite a 21-6 deficit and
34 seconds remaining, LeeDavis wasn’t ready to fold, but
another interception – off a pass
tipped by a Lee-Davis receiver
and caught by Hanover’s Xavier
Crocker – effectively ended the
game.

Hampden-Sydney beats E&H to move to 7-0 for third straight year
No. 20 H-SC downs
Wasps 48-10
HAMPDEN-SYDNEY-For
the third consecutive year, No.
20/22 (AFCA/d3football.com)
Hampden-Sydney posted a 7-0
record to start the season. In
front of a Homecoming crowd
of over 9,000 fans, the Tigers
jumped out to a 21-3 first quarter lead over the Emory & Henry
Wasps and never looked back.
H-SC outscored E&H 27-7 over
the next three stanzas, taking a
48-10 victory to improve to 7-0
and 3-0 in ODAC play heading
into their bye week. Emory and
Henry falls to 4-3 overall in 0-3
in conference play.
The Tigers’ first drive was
performed flawlessly, with junior
Travis Lane (Mills Godwin)
completing all four of his passes
for 43 yards while rushing for 21
yards. John Michael Sparagna
(Atlee) finished the drive with
a seven-yard touchdown reception.
Hampden-Sydney’s next
drive lasted just three plays, with
Kyle Vance making two receptions, and Evan King busting out
for a 31-yard touchdown strike.
Lane and Sean Cavanagh
(Clover Hill) then connected on
a beautiful 71-yard bomb to go
up 21-0.
The Wasps, however, were
able to close out the quarter with
a 20-yard field goal to make it a
21-3 game.
Emory and Henry used the
momentum take its first drive
to the Hampden-Sydney one-
yard line. The Tiger defense
did not break though, as Will
Riggenbach (Clover Hill) and
Steven Fogleman (Hanover)
made a huge stop on fourthand-one on the one-yard line.
The Tigers then drove
98 yards in five minutes with
Andrew Bruckner (L.C. Bird)
finding pay dirt on a three yard
touchdown reception.
On the first play of the Wasps’
ensuing drive, Trevor Ikwild put
a bone crushing hit on Preston
Jennings to force the fumble and
give Hampden-Sydney the ball
right back. The Tigers eventually
capitalized with a 45-yard field
goal from David Prizzia to end
the half.
The Tigers continued to roll
ending the first drive of the half
with a 28-yard field goal from
R-MC opens new tennis complex
On Saturday, October 9,
Randolph-Macon College
conducted a ribbon-cutting
ceremony to unveil its new
tennis complex located at 112
Henry Clay Road in Ashland.
R-MC Tennis Coach Wayne
Vaughan and the R-MC tennis
teams were on hand to hold
mini tennis clinics were held
for elementary-age students.
In addition, competition and
clinics for middle- and highschool students were held, with
prizes provided by Wilson.
“We are extremely happy
to open this facility, and we
designed it to provide a new
home for the R-MC men’s and
women’s tennis teams and also
to be enjoyed by the community,” said R-MC President Robert
R. Lindgren. “The complex has
lighted courts, public parking
and spectator seating. We hope
the Ashland community enjoys
this complex.”
The Randolph-Macon tennis complex was relocated south
of its previous location and sits
near the Ashland train station.
The courts, which sit on five
acres, are designed for public
play when not in use by the
College. The complex includes
ten playing courts with four
courts lighted at night, stadium
seating, a restroom facility, a
gazebo and benches.
As part of R-MC’s commitment to the environment,
a shallow marsh strong water
management pond was created
to catch water run-off from the
complex. Approximately 3,300
plants along the marsh will
clean the drainage water before
it goes into the wetlands.
“The R-MC community has worked very hard
to make sure that improvements made to our campus
do not adversely affect the
environment,” said Lindgren.
“The Virginia Department
of Environmental Quality
(DEQ) has recognized R-MC
as one of only two colleges in
the state to be accepted into
the Virginia Environmental
Excellence Program (VEEP) at
the E2 level (Environmental
Excellence). We are very proud
of that honor and want to continue in that effort.”
Phase One of R-MC’s
Master Plan is underway
with several construction
projects in progress or completed. Development of the
Plan, which was approved in
February 2009 by the college’s
Board of Trustees, was a collaborative process involving
faculty, staff, students, alumni, trustees and members of
the community. In addition
to the tennis complex, R-MC
has completed the relocation
of Smith Street, which is now
a block north of its previous
location. The relocation will
allow for the expansion of
athletic amenities to include
de-coupling the football and
baseball fields. The football
field will be moved to a northsouth position. Plans are also
in place to build a new freshmen residence hall, bordering
the new football field. The hall,
which is expected to be completed by August 2011, will be
named to honor retired Dean
of Students and Professor
Emeritus Rev. Ira L. Andrews
III ’59.

Prizzia to go up 34-3.
Emory & Henry again made
it into Tiger territory, but could
not convert on a fourth-andseven from the HampdenSydney 23-yard line. Lane was
intercepted just two plays later
to give the ball back, but Bill
Doody returned the favor with a
pick of his own, that he returned
46 yards. After a holding penalty on the Wasps, HampdenSydney took over on the Emory
and Henry 19-yard line.
Just three plays later, Lane
and Bruckner connected again,
this time for 16 yards, to go up
41-3.
The Wasps responded just
two minutes into the fourth
quarter with an Adrian Jordan
25 yard touchdown reception
to cut the lead to 41-10, but
Hampden-Sydney used much of
the fourth quarter to score the
final touchdown of the game
on a Regis Craft 13-yard touchdown run to take the final 48-10
margin.
On the day, Lane was 24for-31 for 358 yards, four touchdowns, and two interceptions.
Cavanagh hauled in seven passes
for 138 yards and a touchdown
while Vance caught a team-high
eight receptions for 135 yards.
King was the lead rusher with
61 yards and a touchdown on
nine carries, and Craft ran for
54 yards and a score on just five
carries.
Defensively, Ikwild again led
the crew with a game-high 11
tackles while Fogleman tallied
nine stops. Riggenbach registered five tackles, with 2.5 for
loss and one sack. The Tigers
held Emory and Henry to 287
yards of offense while the Tiger
offense amassed 498 yards.
The Tigers will return to
action on Saturday October
30, as they host the Quakers of
Guilford College. Kickoff is set
for 1:00 pm.

W&L upsets No. 20 R-MC 42-28
LEXINGTON
–
On
Saturday, Washington and Lee
rushed for 427 yards as a team
to hand No. 20 (d3football.com)
Randolph-Macon its first loss of
the season, 42-28 in Lexington,
VA.
R-MC falls to 6-1 overall
and 2-1 in the ODAC, while
W&L is now 4-2 and 3-0 in the
league.
The Yellow Jackets jumped
out front 7-0 on the opening
possession of the game when
Drake Sanders scored from four
yards out.
But the Generals responded
with 21 unanswered points, getting a pair of rushing touchdowns from Luke Heinshon and
a TD scamper from Harrison
Hudson that put W&L ahead
21-7 with just under 10 minutes
to go in the first half.
The Jackets cut it to a one
score game on its ensuing
possession, putting together
a 11-play, 64-yard drive that
was capped off by a one-yard
plunge from Sanders to make
the score 21-14 with 4:31 to go
in the half.
But on the previous play,
R-MC lost starting quarterback
Austin Faulkner to a lower body
injury which occurred when he
tried to push the ball over the
goal line. Luke Sellers finished
out the game in the pocket.
W&L responded with a 90yard drive on eight plays, scoring with just over a minute to go
before halftime.
The Generals opened the
second half with a scoring drive
that Hudson finished with a
seven-yard scoring reception to
put W&L up 35-14, a lead the
Generals defense would make
stand, forcing four turnovers on
the afternoon.
On the game, R-MC ran
for 258 yards. Sanders led the
Yellow Jackets’ offense with 186
yards on 35 carries. Earl Peoples
had four catches for 96 yards in
the loss.
W&L nearly recorded three
100-yard rushing performances.
Heinshon ran for 147 yards and
two scores on 17 carries, while
Brett Murray had 100 yards on
10 carries and Hudson chipped
in with 97 yards on the day.
Randolph-Macon will be
back in action next Saturday
when it hosts Guilford College
at 1:00 p.m.
Faulkner was to undergo
evaluation on Monday to determine when he will be able to
return to action.
