Fun at Rodney Scout Reservation
Ryan Barbour, Star Scout
he last week of July, 32 scouts
from Troop 994 and seven
leaders went to Rodney Boy
Scout Camp. The first day was mostly
safety talks for the merit badges. We
got a taste for how things were done
at camp and an idea of which counselors were the funniest. The whole
troop passed the swim test to varying
degrees and we moved into our tents.
T
The second day of camp saw great
weather and that brought the opportunity to have fun to all the merit
badge sessions. It was a perfect day for
everything from First Aid to Small
Boat Sailing to Rifle Shooting. Many
of the new scouts participated in the
Brown Sea program to earn many
requirements for Tenderfoot, 2nd Class,
and 1st Class. Scouts were also able to
earn Eagle required merit badges, such
as Environmental Science and Lifesaving. At the end of the day, four of
the scouts entered in a sailing regatta
on the bay. None of them ended up in
the top three, but they had fun doing
it anyway.
On Wednesday the weather had held
up and the temperature was gorgeous.
The day wasn’t very eventful, but the
troop went to the chapel service and
after dinner three brave scouts went
to sleep overnight, in self-constructed
shelters, for the Wilderness Survival
merit badge.

Crosspointe update:
Silverbrook Road
I
received an e-mail
in the last couple
of weeks that pretty
much summed up the first subject I
need to cover in this month’s Chronicle.
The writer simply stated that Silverbrook Road is becoming an issue.
Many months ago you may recall that
there was a very serious traffic accident
at the intersection of Crosspointe
Drive and Silverbrook Road, which
6
October 2013
resulted in the loss of one of our
residents. As a result, Fairfax County
put a street light at the intersection to
help eliminate part of the cause of that
tragedy.
Probably there are few, if any, of our
residents who haven’t observed, or at
least heard about, the damage to the
Crosspointe entrance at this same
location. That damage occurred only a
few weeks ago.
If you haven’t read about it, a vehicle
went out of control and smashed into
the brick wall just outside of the Glen
Eagles Pool. That was the result of a
Fairfax County Deputy Sheriff pursuing a young man who was travelling at
a very high rate of speed along Silverbrook Road, after having been pulled
over for his driving by the deputy
inside of the Barrington community.
Neighborhood Watch
In the most recent incident, a State Police Officer was in pursuit of the driver
of a motorcycle for traffic offenses. The
driver of the motorcycle wrecked his
bike just outside of Barrington, but
was not hurt and took off on foot, trying to avoid the police.
The Virginia State Police officer
requested assistance from the Fairfax
County Police to locate the driver. Police cruisers and the police helicopter
with searchlights awoke many of our
residents between 2 and 3 a.m. as they
circled the area. The fleeing driver was
eventually apprehended.
In all, there have been three relatively
unrelated incidents connected only by
the fact that all three involved a traffic
accident along Silverbrook Road. Two
of the three incidents involved excessive speed, and one was at least partial-
ly the result of darkness and visibility
problems.
Why do I connect these three issues?
The answer is that Silverbrook Road
can be a dangerous place to drive.
Poor visibility
Almost every day I travel southwest
along Silverbrook until I reach Gauge
Drive, where I have to make a left
turn to get to my home. Years ago I
learned that it’s almost impossible to
see oncoming Silverbrook Road traffic
as one attempts to turn left, because
of the hill on Silverbrook just past
Gauge Drive. I formed a habit of
making a full stop at that intersection
just to be certain of avoiding a possible collision.
Excessive speed
Speed is another issue along Silverbrook Road. Silverbrook is a conve-
nient connection between Ox Road
(Rte 123) and Hooes Road for traffic
heading towards the County Parkway.
I’ve observed excessive speeding along
Silverbrook Road at all hours of the
day and night.
Two of the three incidents above coincidentally involved speed and loss of
vehicular control resulting in a wreck.
Please be careful when using this road.
I not only encourage you to be careful
of your speed, but I strongly encourage
you to use the full range of defensive
driving techniques, so that we can
hope to avoid continued problems
with this road through our community.

Crosspointe update: Mail

Since this incident occurred, other reports have been received of persons attempting or successfully removing mail
from Crosspointe resident’s mailboxes. Of course we’ve
ensured that each of these reporters has contacted the police as quickly as possible, which is the immediate reaction
we should all take if we are a victim or if we observe this
occurring.

Crosspointe update: Solicitors
A
long with my bill from Fairfax Water this month
was a Fall newsletter containing a warning we
should all note. The warning indicated that there
have been recent incidents where someone claiming to be
from Fairfax Water attempted to enter residents’ homes.
The warning suggested vigilance and noted that their
employees, when they are on duty, have uniforms with their
logo prominently displayed on them.
They also added that their employees also are required to
carry photo IDs with them at all times when they are on
duty.
Finally, the company informed their customers that their
employees do not collect or receive any kind of payments or
fees during service calls; that they do not need to enter clients’ homes to read meters, and suggested that you call the
company at 703.698.5800 if you have any questions about
Fairfax Water employees or their actions.
Much of this advice applies to other utility companies as
well, and should apply to all businesses whose employees
come to your door.
As a general rule you should not give access to your home
to any stranger without verifying their identity, business or
county soliciting license.
It never hurts to leave the company representative outside
with your door locked while you contact their company for
verification of who they are and their purpose, should you
have any questions.
Crosspointe update: Halloween Safety
Our “Trick or Treaters” will be out in force at the end of
this month. Let’s ensure that they have a safe and enjoyable
celebration. Read the guidelines in the adjacent box that

Civic Association Report
What’s
A summary of events which affect the Crosspointe
area, and especially what transpires at the South
County Federation (SCF), an organization of
homeowners associations and civic associations in
the area south of Lee Chapel Road and the Fairfax
County Parkway.

Bob Robertory, Crosspointe
South County Federation Rep.
Fairfax County has already put millions of dollars into the Workhouse
and is seeking to find ways to assist the
Workhouse to be a success.
Supervisor Hyland’s report
Lorton Arts Foundation (LAF; the
Workhouse)
These are challenging and critical
times for the LAF. It has financial
problems, including a large loan from

The LAF has to be more entrepreneurial in seeking ways to raise
revenue. The county plans to look at
the Comprehensive Plan rules on what
the LAF can do and to seek ways
to enhance opportunities for raising
revenue, which could include an event
center and a restaurant.
Route 1 widening
Planning for the widening of Route
1 from Pohick Road to Fort Belvoir
is underway. Widening south to the
Occoquan River will require a replacement of the CSX railroad bridge over
Route 1.
Residential Studio Residences
A “Residential Studio” is a residence
which is an efficiency type apartment
of from 220 to 500 square feet. As being proposed to the Board of Supervisors, multiple unit dwellings, housing
residential studios, could be constructed in areas which are currently zoned
residential between R-2 and R-30
(this would include Crosspointe and
environs), as well as commercial and
industrially zoned land.
This construction would be authorized
as special exceptions to the zoning limitations. The Fairfax County
Comprehensive Plan would not be
controlling. Thus, if a special exception
could be obtained, such multiple-unit
structures could be constructed in
areas close to Crosspointe.
The proposal is supposed to aid those
having incomes of up to 60% of the
median income. The Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on
the proposal on November 20.
Fairfax County has prepared what it
denominates as a Blurb for Web site,
which reads in part as follows:
“The proposed Zoning Ordinance
amendment establishes a new use of
Residential Studios that will consist
of efficiency (zero bedrooms) multiple
family dwelling units of not more than
500 ft. in size and for not more
than 75 units in the development,
or is further limited by the board.
The residential studio use would be
allowed with the approval of a special exception in most of the residential, commercial and industrial
districts or as part of a rezoning, or
by approval of a special exception
in all of the planned development
districts. . .”
Lorton Road widening
A separate article describing the
Lorton Road widening project,
which is commencing and will
involve considerable disruption to
area traffic, appears elsewhere in
this issue of the Chronicle.
The SCF voted 21-6-2 to approve
renaming the segment now known
as [North] Furnace Road as Lorton
Road and the segment between it and
Route 123 will be renamed Workhouse Road.
Former Prison Adaptive Reuse area
The SCF was advised that there
have been some changes to proposed
townhouse elevations,which have been
posted on the project Web site.
Yard Debris &
grass clippings are
picked up on Mondays by AAA. Therefore, these
items may only be placed at the curb beginning Sunday night for pick-up on Monday.
If you have a landscaping company doing work for you, please let them know
not to put out items at the curb during the week and on weekends.

Lorton Road closures loom
Bob Robertory, Crosspointe
South County Federation Rep.
T
he Fairfax County Department
of Transportation (FDOT) is
commencing the 2.5 mile long
Lorton Road widening project. The
work will be accomplished by FDOT
through contractors, utilizing county
money rather than commonwealth
funds. In a departure from normal
practice, VDOT will not be contracting for the construction.
The layout is for there to be a fourlane divided highway generally following the current alignment of Lorton
Road to its intersection with [North]
Furnace Road and from there following [North] Furnace Road to its
intersection with Route 123.
The barrel arch brick bridge over the
former Lorton and Occoquan Railroad
will be left in place, with the highway
being further to the west.
The current segment of Lorton Road
between Route 123 and [North] Furnace Rd. will intersect this new roadway in a perpendicular intersection.
[South] Furnace Road will intersect
the new highway in a perpendicular,
stop-sign-controlled intersection in
the middle of the sharp curve which
has been the scene of several accidents.
Permits have been obtained and plans
completed. A 36-inch gas main near
Hooes Road has been relocated and
both Cox and Verizon should commence underground utility relocation
shortly. The goal is to complete utility
work by spring, with actual construction to commence shortly thereafter.
Completion is expected by the end of
2016.
The construction will be accomplished
in four phases, and will entail considerable disruption of traffic. These
phases are:
1. Phase 1 will cover what is now
[North] Furnace Road up to Hooes
Road. While construction is underway,
no traffic will be allowed on this segment. Persons coming up Lorton Road
from the I-95 area who wish to access
123 northbound must follow the existing Lorton Road to Route 123. (Or
take Silverbrook Road.)
2. Phase 2 will be the construction of

the westbound lanes
from Silverbrook road up
to the current
intersection of
[North] Furnace Road and Lorton
Road. The contractor will be required
to perform considerable regrading in
the area of the sharp curve. Consequently, it has been decided to remove
all traffic from that area during the
regrading work. Westbound traffic on
Lorton road will be detoured up the
existing short stub road by the Apple
Orchard to intersect with [South]
Furnace Road in an intersection controlled by a temporary traffic signal.
Lorton Road traffic may then turn
right and follow Furnace Road back to
Lorton Road.
3. Phase 3 is construction of the eastbound lanes adjacent to what has been
constructed in Phase 2.
4. Phase 4 is construction of the segment that leads from what is presently
the Lorton-Furnace Roads intersection, to Route 123. One issue affecting
this stretch is how to construct access
to the Workhouse Arts Center.
The speed limit on the new roads
will be 45 mph, except on the stretch
in Phase 4, where it will be 40 mph.
An eight-foot high retaining wall,
approximately 200 feet long, will be
constructed adjacent to the existing
houses near the southwest corner of
Hooes Road and present Furnace
Road.
When the construction is completed,
the segment now known as [North]
Furnace Road will be renamed Lorton
Road and the segment between it and
Route 123 will be renamed Workhouse Road.

Tennis Committee
Talkin’
Tennis
Kevin Garrahan, Tennis Chairman
Tennis Committee meeting
The Crosspointe Tennis Committee
met on Monday, August 26 and discussed the following topics: previous
minutes, proposals to resurface courts
in 2014, and budget request for 2014.
Proposals to resurface courts
The committee has received several
proposals and is conducting a detailed
evaluation of their relative strengths
and weaknesses. Information in the
proposals was used to prepare the
committee’s budget request for 2014.
Vandalism
Please remember that vandals and/or their parents
will be held responsible for
any damage that they cause.
Recently, a lock to one of
the gates was damaged and had to be
repaired by a locksmith. We suspect
that it was caused by a child tampering with the lock. Parents, please keep
a watchful eye over your children. If
you notice any unauthorized or suspicious activity, please call the Fairfax
Police non-emergency phone number
703.691.2131.
Night Play
Fall is a great time of year to play tennis. Even though it gets dark earlier,
you can still enjoy a fun evening of
tennis by playing under our new lights
at the four Glen Eagles courts.
Are you looking
for an inexpensive
way to improve
your equipment?
You can’t beat the benefit-cost ratio
of installing a new over-grip on your
racquet. They only cost a couple of
bucks and you can easily install one
yourself right on top of your existing
grip. All the pros use them and so
should you. Not only do they give
you a better grip during the summer when your hand is sweaty, they
provide a much better grip during
fall and winter when the air is cold
and dry. Over-grips will also help
prevent blisters. Buy a package of
them at any pro shop or sporting
goods store and change them every
month or two.

Architechural Review Board
The ARB
application and
approval process
Homeowner’s are reminded
that all ARB (Architectural
Review Board) applications are due by the close
of business on the Monday
prior to the ARB meeting.
Any application submitted
after that date will be considered a post deadline
application, which may or
may not be looked at by
the ARB at their meeting.
If the ARB does not review a post
deadline application at their meeting,
the application will be placed on the
agenda for the next scheduled ARB
meeting. Additionally, all incomplete
ARB applications will be returned to the
homeowner for additional information.
Once the application is complete, it will
be placed on the agenda at the next
scheduled ARB meeting.
After an application has been approved,
an inspection will be performed 120
days after approval, or sooner if the
homeowner notifies the office the project has been completed. The inspection
is conducted to verify the project was
completed in accordance with the approved application.
If the project was not completed, a new
application must be submitted and ARB
approval obtained. If the project was
not completed in accordance with the
ARB approval, the homeowner will be
notified and the issue(s) will need to be
resolved.
As always, homeowners who have an
application on the agenda for review
are highly encouraged to attend the
ARB meeting to answer any questions
the ARB might have regarding the application.
If you have any questions, please
contact the community center office at
703.690.2321.
For noise complaints at any time, call the police non-emergency line at 703.691.2131.

On Thursday we finally paid for the
great weather. It poured all day and
into the night. All of the merit badge
sessions had a rough time that day.
The Wilderness Survival kids came
back from their overnighter soaked.
A squall came into the bay while all
the Small Boat Sailing boats were out
and they had to keep from capsizing
as best they could. At Rifle Shooting
the paper targets were wet, so they
couldn’t work on the merit badge. To
top it all off, that night was the night
when all the troops had to cook their
own meal. The rain kept putting the
fire out so we ended up roasting hot
dogs over the turkey cooker. As the
evening drew to a close, the senior
scouts presented our scoutmaster with
two blue birthday cakes.
The rain stopped overnight so that
on Friday we could finish our merit
badges and go to the closing campfire.
Also, by earning high scores for camp
inspection, participation in many camp
activities and performing a service
project to reduce campsite erosion, the
troop earned the Honor Troop award.
It was a good end to our experience.
All of our Scouts had a lot of fun.

and deaths have dropped drastically
in areas where high schools have
organized drug and alcohol free

S
In 2007, South County parents began
the tradition of creating a fun, safe
and substance free event for its graduates with the hope of avoiding tragedy
that has often marked graduation
celebrations in the past. We’re asking
for all members of our Crosspointe

The 2014 All Night Grad Party

is highly anticipated by the Seniors
since this event will most likely be the
last time they will all be together. There
will be games, music, food raffle prizes
and other festivities all through the
night. Students will enter the event at
10:30 p.m. and will not be allowed to
leave the premises until 6:30 a.m. the
following morning.
We’ve all watched these kids grow up;
Now let’s make sure they stay safe on
what could otherwise be one of the
most dangerous nights of their lives!

Home for Dinner Exhibit & Food Drive
celebrating local 6th graders artwork and raising awareness
of hunger and homeless challenges in southeast Fairfax County
Andrea Cochrane Tracey, Lorton
Community Action Center
he Lorton Community Action Center (LCAC) and the
Workhouse Arts Center are
collaborating on a community exhibition Home for Dinner to help raise
awareness about hunger and homelessness in southeast Fairfax County.
T
The exhibit features artwork by local
6th graders depicting what the phrase
home for dinner means to them.
The exhibit opens on Saturday, October 12 with a reception, sponsored
by Vulcan Materials, from 6–9 p.m.
in Building 16, which is FREE and
open to the public. The reception is
part of the 2nd Saturday Art Walk at
the Workhouse. The Workhouse Arts
Center is located at 9601 Ox Road
(Rte. 123) in Lorton.
Bring non-perishable food donations
for the LCAC Food Pantry and place

The exhibit and food drive run

family, laughter, conversation, tradition, favorite foods—just to name
a few. However, for some individuals and families in southeast Fairfax
County, “home for dinner” may not
have a positive association. Perhaps
the family is struggling to afford rent
to stay in their home or trying to
keep food on the table. LCAC, an
independent human services nonprofit organization, works to prevent
homelessness and to ensure that local
individuals and families have food for
dinner (and other meals, too!).
To learn more about LCAC and how
to become involved, visit LortonAction.org or call 703.339.5161.
Home for Dinner is a simple phrase
that may signify many things, such as
