Cost of Arson Spree Goes Far Beyond Burnt Property
By Linda Cicoira
Fines and costs totaling nearly
$100,000 were filed this week in Accomack Circuit Court in association
with the cases of serial arsonists Tonya
Susan Bundick and Charles (Charlie
Applegate) Robert Smith III.
More bills are likely to be submitted
from various defense lawyers.
And there could be even more charges after that, since Bundick, 42, who is
incarcerated at Eastern Shore Regional Jail in Eastville, is appealing her
convictions. She has filed appeals so
far for two of her 65 convictions.
Smith, her former fiancé, 40, who
is being held in Accomack Jail, cannot appeal because his guilty pleas
were straightforward. Bundick pleaded guilty to most of the counts by using a legal ploy called the Alford plea,
which allowed her to state she is innocent but pleaded guilty because the evidence against her was overwhelming.
The list of fines and fees that have
been submitted so far for Smith total
$52,997. A breakdown showed a fixed
fee of $22,125 for the 58 felony convictions, a fixed fee of $720 for the nine
misdemeanor convictions, $27,677 for
the court-appointed attorney fee, $680
for courthouse security, $750 for a psy-
chological exam, $25 for a jail admission fee and $1,020 for an Internet
crimes child fund that is designated
for defendants.
Bundick’s fines and costs so far total
$46,332. That figure includes $19,500

Woman Killed in Accomack Collision with Tractor-Trailer
By Linda Cicoira
A Delaware woman died Tuesday in a traffic accident in
Accomack County.
Tameka Shamra Wallop, 21, of Wallop Road in Seaford
died at the scene of the two-vehicle crash, State Police Sgt.
Michelle Anaya reported.
The crash occurred at about 4 p.m. at the intersection of
Saxis Road (Route 695) and Neal Parker Road (Route 693),
the officer continued. A 2007 Freightliner tractor-trailer
truck was going east on Saxis Road when a 2008 Ford Focus
“failed to acknowledge the stop sign” and ran into the other
vehicle, Anaya said.
The name and condition of the driver of the Freightliner
was not available.

Northampton supervisors took a
bite out of their tax billing policy Monday, changing the twice-a-year tax billing to once-a-year.
To send out tax bills two times annually costs an extra $30,000, based
on estimates given earlier this year.
The board then tackled the matter
of how to handle tourism grants offered
by the county. Each year, Northampton County funds the Eastern Shore
of Virginia Tourism Commission with
the proceeds of a supplemental 3 percent Transient Occupancy Tax. The
supervisors have specified that 15 percent of the tax must be spent on tourism projects in the county.
For the FY 2016, the amount projected is $40,500. The board has established a Tourism Grant Committee to
determine how to spend the projected
proceeds from the tax. Applications
for grant funds are being accepted until June 1. The board voted not to provide more than 30 percent to any one
applicant.
The matter of what to do with the
former middle school and a request by
Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
for a garage facility was finally resolved. With most of the former middle
school empty, a number of proposals
were presented to use various parts
of the former school as headquarters
for the EMS Department. For the past
several years, the EMS Department
has been headquartered on property rented along Lankford Highway in
Machipongo.
Estimates for repurposing the former middle school in Machipongo by
the architectural firm DJG Associates have ranged from $1.2 million to
over $4 million. Estimates for adding
a garage at EMS’ current site are hundreds of thousands less.
Supervisor Oliver Bennett expressed a desire to house the EMS Department in the former school, with
the caveat that other portions of the
building could be used by members of
the public. He spoke of the historical
value of the structure and how it was
valued by a considerable portion of the
population.
Supervisor Larry Trala also supported the move of the EMS Department. He expressed concern over the
prospect of abandoning the building.
Supervisor Larry LeMond said he
could not support putting any money into the former school. He recommended that the EMS Department remain where it is and just add a garage
at that site to house the three EMS
vehicles.
Supervisor Granville Hogg agreed,
noting that it is simple math since
it would cost considerably more to
modify the 60-year-old former middle
school.
With a 2-2 split, it came down to a
deciding vote by Chairman Rick Hubbard. While Hubbard expressed a desire to keep the former middle school
as a place the public can use, he said
the extra cost to renovate it would require money the county does not have.
Voting instead to keep EMS where it is,
Hubbard paved the way for the county
to seek an agreement to purchase the
property that currently is rented for
EMS. Assuming that an agreement is
reached, the county will then seek bids
to build a garage to house the EMS vehicles on the site.
Final discussion of the evening revolved around the need to provide
funding to dredge the harbor at Willis Wharf. County Administrator Katie Nunez reported that the cost of the
dredging would be $180,000. She added that a $90,000 grant is available
from the Virginia Port Authority and
a $30,000 grant earmarked for repairs
at Morley’s Wharf boat ramp could be
reallocated for the dredging project.
The board agreed that the dredging
project needs to take precedence. In
addition, the supervisors agreed to use
$35,000 in the Harbor Fund reserve
to cover the remainder of the cost of
dredging.

Accomack Schools Announce Reorganization of Top Brass
By Linda Cicoira
Top Accomack school officials were chosen by the
School Board and include Mike Tolbert as chief operations and management officer, Dr. Nancy Lewin
as chief academic officer and Jason Baldwin as chief
of staff, according to a prepared statement released
Wednesday afternoon.
Superintendent Dr. Kregg Cuellar said the School
Board would officially name the three employees to
the posts at its May 5 meeting. The positions will be
effective July 1. No salary figures were given because
the division is “undergoing a compensation audit,”
according to the superintendent. “All of the salaries
of division administrators are under review and …
have yet to be determined.”
“The School Board went through a vigorous
screening and interviewing process, before determining that the above mentioned individuals were the
best suited candidates for the positions applied,” said
Cuellar.
Tolbert will oversee transportation, nutrition and
maintenance. He has more than 35 years of experience in engineering, construction and project management, the superintendent noted. A 15-year veteran of Accomack Schools, Tolbert is currently building and maintenance coordinator. He graduated
from Virginia Tech with a bachelor’s degree in civil
engineering.
Lewin’s job will include curriculum, instruction
and professional development. She’s been in public
education for 22 years, 18 as a building-level administrator. She received her doctorate in professional
leadership from the University of Houston and currently serves as director of special education.
Baldwin will be in charge of human resources, parental involvement and public relations. He has 18
years of experience in education and has served for
the last eight years as Accomack’s middle school co-
Onancock Decides on Sewage Option With County
By Linda Cicoira
Onancock Town Council voted Monday night to accept one of the three proposals offered recently by the Accomack Board of Supervisors regarding sewer services.
Council chose the option of charging the county
the “lowest town rate” of any Onancock user, with
several amendments. The counteroffer did not mention what that rate is.
“One of the reasons” the option was picked, “is it
didn’t include numbers,” said Mayor Russell Jones.
The proposal also notes pollutant limits acceptable
under the town’s permit requirements and promises
to “promptly notify” the county of any notices of noncompliance or violations regarding such operations
issued by state or federal authorities.
Onancock officials stated the county would
“promptly” be notified if Accomack were to deviate
from the requirements so that the county could cooperate to correct the situation.
The answer also stipulated that Accomack would
be alerted “when all discharges from all sources
reach 85 percent of the total capacity of the town system … the Town will continue to guarantee the county at least 100,000 gpd (gallons per day) of treatment
capacity throughout the life of the sewage system as
long as it’s permissible by all state and federal permits issued to the town.”
The proposal is for 40 years. The first agreement
for sewage between the county and town was made in
1979. The town also voted to strike the provision allowing either party to terminate the agreement with
an 18-month notice.
“I am very willing to meet with you, members of
your staff, and/or members of the Board of Supervisors to review these proposed changes and the ratio-
nale for the changes,” Town Manager G. Cabell Lawton IV wrote Tuesday in a letter hand-delivered to
County Administrator Steve Miner. Attached was “a
copy of the Town of Onancock’s proposed budget for
FY16 in order to demonstrate our continued intent
to increase sewer rates in order to improve the financial performance of this system.”
ordinator. He has a master’s degree in educational
leadership from the University of North Carolina at
Greensboro.
“Naturally, the naming of these three chief positions has created a ripple effect in terms of vacancies,” said Cuellar. He previously promised that the
reorganization was not about “eliminating people
from their positions. It is, however, about creating
systems that provide the very best support for all
schools and children in the division.”
Cuellar said Dr. Rhonda Hall (currently assistant
superintendent for administration and human resources) will be named director of school improvement and federal programs. Chief Operating Officer
Beth Onley’s title will become director of budget and
finance.
Instructional Specialist Diane Gladstone will
move into the director of special populations position. High School Coordinator Tamara Sterling will
serve as director of secondary schools, also assuming
responsibility for middle schools.
“In our reorganization, we have carefully crafted
a means through which to streamline our customer
service to our constituents while specifically focusing
on critical needs areas, which was the purpose of our
central office reorganization,” Cuellar said
An agency was hired to assist the board with
screening and hiring “to ensure the integrity of
the process,” at a cost of $15,000 for the top three
hires.

Why Not Send These Children to Camp?
By Ron West
Northampton County, along with most localities
in the commonwealth, offers its young people an opportunity to attend 4-H Summer Camp at regional
facilities throughout the state.
The Airfield Conference Center, located near
Wakefield, serves as the campsite for southeastern Virginia. The week-long camp provides children
from ages 9 to 13 with an opportunity to learn skills
such as archery, riflery, fishing, canoeing, outdoor
living, and even robotics. This year an added feature will be “CSI” type investigations. The campers
will be offered the opportunity to learn about DNA
and how it can be used to identify living organisms.
According to Northampton 4-H Unit Coordinator
Christina Ruszczyk-Murray, who works through the
county’s Extension Service, the county has the opportunity to send approximately 50 children to the camp
this year, which runs from July 6 through July 10. The
registration deadline for the camp is June 1. The $245
fee covers transportation to and from Wakefield as
well as all costs associate with the camp while there.
Because a large percentage of families in the
county live at or below the poverty level, the children
seldom get an opportunity to travel off the Shore to
attend the camp, Murray said. She added that the
Northampton County Farm Bureau has agreed to
help fund a portion of the cost of transporting the
campers to Wakefield. And some of the children have

Though his lawyer, Carl Bundick, asked

is a stretch. The community would not be
safe. … Heroin is a very dangerous substance.” He described Dennis as a “highschool drop out working no more than 20
hours a week in a family business (and)
has a lot of free time on his hands.”

Local Officials Address State Issues
By Ron West
Eastern Shore of Virginia Chamber
of Commerce hosted its 2015 Eggs and
Issues program at the Eastern Shore
Yacht and County Club last week.
State Sen. Lynwood Lewis told the
gathering of local business and government leaders of the results of the
2015 General Assembly session. He
noted the success of obtaining support for the funding for new facilities
at Eastern Shore Community College,
adding that funds were also available
to provide raises for state employees,
as well as teachers. He spoke of the efforts to reform the Standards of Learning (SOL) for schools in the state. “It’s
more important to see how students
perform in the classroom than just on
a standardized test,” he noted.
Lewis spoke of the importance of
implementing ethics reforms in the aftermath of the problems faced by former Gov. Robert McDonnell. The General Assembly and Gov. Terry McAuliffe reached an agreement on limiting
gifts to elected officials from individuals to $100 total for the year.
Del. Rob Bloxom spoke of the use
of unmanned aerial vehicles (drones)
that was tackled by the General Assembly. He noted the value of the use
of such vehicles by Wallops and how
it would be problematic if they were
not allowed to operate in Virginia. According to Bloxom, there were groups
in Richmond opposed to drones being
operated within the state. He reported
that the General Assembly was able to
place limitations on the use of the vehicles while carving out the area around
Wallops one where drones could be operated legally.
Accomack County Board of Supervisors Chairwoman Reneta Major spoke
of the growth that is occurring in the
county. Among indications of progress
that she cited were the move of the
hospital to Onley, repairs to the damaged launch pad at Wallops, and development of the research park at Wallops. In addition, Major noted that the
supervisors did not need to raise taxes to balance the budget. She also reported the addition of a new gas pipeline that will be coming to the county
to provide a source of energy to several
businesses in the area.
Northampton County Board Chairman Rick Hubbard spoke of issues
of concern for the county, such as the
loss of the hospital and related strain
on the Emergency Medical Services
(EMS).
Hubbard said Northampton County is taking a step in the right direction with the approval of two new restaurants. On the down side, he recited
issues from a report that shows a decline in the county population as well
as in other economic indicators. He
spoke of the need to repair and eventually replace the high school and middle
school. With the existing county debt
service, Hubbard suggested it might
be another five years before funds will
be freed up to consider replacing the
school(s).

Cheriton OKs Training Expansion
By Ron West
Cheriton Town Council reviewed a
proposal by the Pacific Atlantic Professional Academy to enlarge its training
facility in the town.
Lee Goldman, who heads up the training academy, said the company is growing and needs to expand it operation, currently located on South Bayside Road
behind Cheriton Volunteer Fire Station.
More than eight years ago, Goldman conceived the idea of a training center that
focuses on both classroom and hands-on
training for officers and crews of merchant vessels. The school has a mock-up
of a vessel that is used to learn how to
fight onboard fires. The school offers a variety of training opportunities from deck
hands to master and mate training. The
expansion that Goldman plans will be
the addition of a mock-up of a vessel that
will allow for more hands-on experience.
Cheriton Mayor Joe Habel, a retired
chief petty officer, commanded the
Coast Guard Station in Cape Charles.
He said the expansion requested by
Goldman would be a plus.

Following discussion, council voted
4-0 to approve the addition. (Councilmen Fred Diggs and Barry Downing
were absent.)
Council briefly discussed the possibility of having the town government join
Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce,
but agreed that the benefits of doing so
do not outweigh the cost of joining. They
agreed to revisit the possibility of joining
the organization in the future.
Councilman Greg Hardesty updated
council on the status of the county’s Public Service Authority (PSA). Hardesty
said the PSA had looked into options for
wastewater disposal, such as the county’s Bayview facility, as well as a standalone site, but no decision has been
made regarding it. The proposed cost for
updating the Bayview wastewater facility exceeds $2 million. The County Board
of Supervisors has considered the option
of imposing a tax to cover the wastewater project, but no decision was reached.
Habel read a statement from Diggs,
expressing Diggs’ desire to step down
from his position on council. His fellow
council members accepted his resignation and announced they will begin
searching for a replacement, as well
as seeking candidates to fill seats on
the Town’s Planning Commission and
Board of Zoning Appeals, both of which
will have openings this summer. Any
Cheriton resident with an interest in
serving in these positions can contact
the town office for an application.
A final discussion of the evening resolved around a minor adjustment to the
Boundary Line Agreement recently approved by the Board of Supervisors. Habel stated that when the agreement was
reached earlier this year, a narrow strip
of property owned by the railroad was
inadvertently left out. He said the supervisors would review this issue and hold
a public hearing on the matter May 12.

Health Matters Avian Flu Warning
D
r. Richard Wilkes, state veterinarian with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS), says that while
Virginia has been actively preparing its
response to an avian influenza (A.I.) outbreak since 2002, the routine preparedness has taken on some increased purpose and vigor this year. In 2002, Virginia had an A.I. outbreak that spread to
six counties and caused the destruction
of 4.75 million birds to stop the spread of
the disease.
In December 2014 and January 2015,
the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported the presence of highly pathogenic
avian influenza viruses in wild birds in
a few states. Since the beginning of the
year, commercial as well as backyard
poultry flocks in Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Missouri, North Dakota, Oregon,
South Dakota, Washington and Wisconsin have tested positive for the H5N2
strain of avian flu.
Wilkes says that VDACS and the state’s
poultry industry have been vigilant in
prevention techniques and anticipated
response since 2002. Virginia has established the Virginia Poultry Disease Task
Force, which meets quarterly to review
the plan for response in the event of an
outbreak and conducts an exercise every
three years to practice its response. The
latest meeting in March 2015 was scheduled before the current outbreak began.
On April 15, VDACS’ Harrisonburg
livestock inspectors and a poultry specialist inspected, serviced and familiarized themselves with a decontamination trailer that allows people to shower
in and out of disease-infected premis-
es onsite. That is one of the biosecurity
precautions that will be activated in an
emergency.
Standard biosecurity procedures include wearing disposable boots or dipping footware in a disinfectant bath
when entering and leaving a poultry
house, limiting access to such houses
to essential personnel only, disinfecting
tires when a service vehicle leaves one
farm to go to another and cleaning any
equipment that has been in contact with
poultry. Poultry owners from one farm
should avoid mingling with residents of
other poultry farms as much as possible to prevent tracking the virus among
farms. Contract poultry growers also
should follow all biosecurity instructions
from their contracting companies.
Other preparedness activities include
very close scrutiny on imported poultry and poultry products; they may enter Virginia only under special permit
if coming from a control area in another state. The state also has mobilized the
A.I. Incident Management Team.
All poultry owners should report any
unusual increases in poultry illnesses or
deaths to one of VDACS’ Regional Animal Health Laboratories: Harrisonburg,
540-209-9130; Lynchburg, 434-2009988; Warrenton, 540-316-6543; or Wytheville, 276-228-5501. Poultry owners
may obtain disease information and assistance at those same offices.
Bird owners need to practice strict
biosecurity at their homes and farms.
“Good biosecurity is the best prevention
and quick response is the key to keeping the disease from spreading, should
it appear here,” said Dr. Wilkes. “Poultry
owners are the best protection their birds
have. Making biosecurity a part of their
daily routine while caring for their birds
can decrease the chance of A.I. showing
up on their doorsteps.”
Key biosecurity advice for poultry
owners:
•Keep your distance - Isolate your
birds from visitors and other birds, especially waterfowl and shorebirds;
•Keep it clean - Prevent germs from
spreading by cleaning shoes, tools and
equipment and have designated clothing
and footwear that you only wear in your
poultry house or farm;
•Don’t haul disease home - Be sure
to clean vehicles and cages whenever
traveling;
•Don’t borrow disease from your
neighbor - Avoid sharing tools and
equipment with other bird owners;
•Know the warning signs of infectious
bird diseases - Watch for early signs to
prevent the spread of disease.
•Always buy from a reliable source The National Poultry Improvement Program (NPIP) offers voluntary disease
certifications, and chicks from a hatchery that have been certified as disease
free are less likely to introduce diseases
onto your farm;
Colonial Square 13C
Belle Haven
•Consider testing birds or knowing
the flock NPIP status for diseases of concern before adding them to your flock;
•Report sick birds - Report unusual signs
of disease or unexpected deaths to VDACS.
This particular strain of H5N2 does
not affect people. As a reminder, the
proper handling and cooking of poultry and eggs to an internal temperature
of 165 ˚F kills any bacteria and viruses.
People should avoid contact with sick/
dead poultry or wildlife. If contact occurs, they should wash their hands with
soap and water and change clothing before having any contact with healthy domestic poultry and birds.

Veterinarian’s Office at 804-692-0601.

Earthly Blessings
Story and photos by Ron West
According to Matthew (16:18), Jesus told Peter,
“Upon this rock I will build my church.”
But taken literally, this is virtually impossible in
parts of the Shore, where sand is much more evident
than rock.
Such was the case when Shorter’s Chapel was
built along the shores of Hungars Creek in the
tiny village of Bridgetown. In 1866, John Henry Offer, the second AME minister on the Eastern Shore, along with a small band of individuals,
gathered in a school building in Bridgetown and
established a church that would continue exist for
the next 149 years.
As with many small communities throughout the United States, schools and churches often
shared a single building. This practice continued in
Bridgetown until the present structure was erected
in 1886, long before the term “building codes” was
coined.
A drive along Bayside Road through Bridgetown
will show that the ground is far from level, thus
adding to the issues faced by those who built the
structure.
According to church member Betty Sims-Bell,
Shorter’s now needs improvements to the foundation
as well as replacement of some of its flooring. While
portions of the church remain usable, others must be
avoided. Water that tends to stay under and around
the building following heavy rain has left in mold in
some areas. While the congregation has
made a number of temporary repairs,
Sims-Bell noted that portions of the
building will need major reconstruction
in the near future.
Estimates place the cost at $10,000
for each of the two sides of the main
structure, flooring, and foundation,
with another $5,000 needed inside of
the building. According to Sims-Bell,
once the repairs get underway, other issues may be unearthed. A fundraising
effort has accumulated about a third of
the money and sources for grants are
being investigated.
Located adjacent to Hungers Creek,
the church is not the only part of the
property with issues. The cemetery, in
the rear has graves that date back over
100 years, and those are only the ones
that can be located and identified. A
walk among the graves shows that water from the creek, as well as standing
rainwater, has caused some to become
open to the elements. What is needed
to clean up the gravesites, especially
those in areas where trees and underbrush have overtaken them, is some
serious groundskeeping.
Sims-Bell is seeking assistance,
both financial as well as physical from
individuals or groups who would be
interested in helping with the church
and/or the cemetery.
Anyone interested in providing assistance in either of these areas, is
asked contact Sims-Bell at 757-6782944 or 757-999-1344.

Bless Our Fleet
Story and photo by Ron West
As Cape Charles hosted its eighth
annual Blessing of the Fleet last Friday, a stiff breeze and cool temperatures, even for late April, tended to keep
the number of vessels to a minimum.
While the aim of the event is to focus on the beginning of the commercial season for watermen, recreational
boaters often find it a good way to begin the boating season as well.
Although there were some commercial vessels present, the two main
vessels underway in the harbor flew
Coast Guard colors. The 160-foot Coast
Guard Cutter Kennebec (WLIC 802)
provided a beautiful backdrop for the
event as her crew worked to remove
an aid to navigation, in preparation of
dredging of the harbor. The second ves-
sel, Coast Guard Auxiliary unit 19180,
lay patiently alongside the pier, waiting to take a wreath out into the Chesapeake Bay. The wreath honors those
who have lost their lives while working or serving those who earn their
livelihood on the waters of the Eastern
Shore.
This year, the state Del. Rob Bloxom
addressed those in attendance. Speaking of the importance of Virginia’s waters to the local economy, he praised all
who earn their living while afloat, be
they wearing waders and workgloves
or Coast Guard blues.
With the tolling of a bell and a solitary blast of the ship’s horn, the wreath
was lowered into the waters of the harbor and was solemnly towed seaward
by 19180.

in fixed costs for the 52 felonies, $720
for the nine misdemeanors, $24,562 for
court-appointed attorney fees, $610 for
the courthouse security fee, $25 for the
jail admission fee and $915 for the Internet crimes child fund.
Also filed in the court for Bundick
were other costs that totaled $24,904,
including fines and costs totaling
$3,930 from one of her first trials,
$5,109 for a court reporter during a
two-day trial and $15,865 in charges
from her second attorney.
Smith confessed to the crime spree
just after being arrested with Bundick
in April 2013. The arsons started in
October 2012 and terrorized Accomack
County until the couple was arrested.
The damages to the dozens and dozens of structures that burned, including the historic and dilapidated Whispering Pines Motel and Leatherbury
United Methodist Church, were estimated at nearly $2 million.
About a month after Bundick and
Smith were arrested, the lead agency in the investigation, the State Po-
(Continued From Front Page)
lice, calculated nearly $305,000 in
expenses from Dec. 1, 2012, to April
13, 2013. Those included $112,833 in
lodging for additional sworn personnel assigned to the county to supplement existing patrols and investigative needs, $67,404 for meals for
those workers, $86,672 in fuel costs
for workers assigned to patrol and investigate, and $37,837 for use of the
State Police plane.
These figures do not include the
hours and hours of work by volunteer
first responders, the sheriff’s department (where workers do not get overtime) and public safety officials.
Bundick and Smith were sentenced
last week. Bundick got 17½ years for
her crimes. Smith, who was cooperative
with police, was sentenced to 15 years.
When it comes to payment of these
expenses, the court-appointed defense
attorneys and the court reporters
file vouchers with the state Supreme
Court; the defendants the reimburse
the court. The remaining fees have to
wait until the defendants pay.

Retrievers Show Their Stuff
I
was on the property five minutes
when I realized just how much work
I had to do with Duke.
The event was a North American Hunting Retriever Association
(NAHRA) field test being held at the
farms of Charlie and Marlene Donnell,
David Joynes and Larry Housman and
Victoria Pepper outside Onancocck one
recent Saturday.
Housman is the president of the
local Eastern Shore Retrievers Club.
Formed just this past January, the
club has 20 members who get together to work with their retrievers. They
usually meet on his 70-acre farm that
includes several ponds. Housman
worked his two dogs, Bry, 6, and Hank,
18 months, at the trials. Housman invites anyone who wants to join to call
787-8520.
The local club worked with the national organization to stage the recent

field trial. Retrievers, all Labradors,
were being tested under actual hunting conditions and showing the hours of
work they had put in with their owners.
I saw dogs in hot pursuit of a fallen
duck stop 10 feet away on command by
their owner. I saw dogs take hand signals
from their owners on blind retrieves.
I saw dogs charge into the water and
bring a duck to their owner’s hand before
striking out for another on land.
Some of these dogs were as young as
10 months old.
Meanwhile, I have a 7-month-old
black Lab that I thought precocious
at 4 months and just plain stubborn
today. He knows what I want him to
do — some days he does Sit, Stay and
Come like a champ, retrieves a dummy
and brings it to me on command — but
he likes his freedom so much that lately he roams wherever his nose might
lead him, ignoring my commands.
They say the best virtue of a dog owner
is patience, but mine is wearing thin.
NAHRA’s mission is the preser
va
tion of our heritage of hunting with retrievers. Its members see the retriever
as a conservation tool in the field.
Frank Plewa, national president
of the chapter, says, “Without a dog,
hunters will probably lose ducks and
continue hunting until they get their
limit. With a trained retriever in the
blind, the likelihood is that game that
is dropped will not get away or be lost.”
Trainers from all over the East
Coast and as far as away as Minnesota
gathered on this beautiful Saturday to
compete in the field trial. There were
duck blinds, numerous decoys, calls,
shotguns and other hunting implements used in a manner simulating
normal hunting. Almost everyone was
decked out in camouflage except one
member attired in a magenta blouse.
She heard about that all day.
Trainers were young and old, female and male. The Labs included
blacks, yellow and chocolate and arrived with names like Delta Marsh
Yellow Tail Sushi, Shoe Charcoal
Travel’n Man and Basking in the
Glow of Good Enough.
Under the NAHRA concept, the objective is to recover the bird as quickly
and efficiently as possible, to create
the least amount of disturbance in
the marsh and upland and to give the
hunter the maximum amount of time to
actually take game. Dogs are placed in
five categories based on ability, not age:
Beginner, Started, Hunter, Intermediate and Senior. Dogs do not compete
against one another for placements, but
rather their performances are judged
individually against a “standard.”

dogs and also serves as a hunting
guide, primarily for goose hunting
over fields. “My dog will often hunt
with other dogs. We try to simulate
conditions here that we find in the
field. If you have done it, you understand that there is probably more action and confusion taking place than
many dogs can handle. Hours of waiting, then a scramble to hide, ridiculous
amounts of calling to and from the
geese, the sudden explosion of blinds
opening and guns emptying, birds falling and flying away. Through all this,
a dog hopefully waits patiently for the
signal to go. It doesn’t end there, sometimes two or three dogs are being sent
for hopefully different birds, birds flopping, cripples running, etc. That’s a lot
for a young dog to digest.
“There is nothing more satisfying
to me than to see a rookie in the morning become somewhat experienced
by day’s end,” said Plewa, whose dog
Carbon handled everything asked of
him.
If you have a retriever and want
some training tips, call the local club.
It seems like I could use some help
with Duke.

scored all four goals and Kristen Bailey earned a shutout in goal.
On Monday against Lancaster, Caroline Olmsted scored early in the game

Rosa Marquez scored on a rebound of
Wright’s long shot on goal with 31:57
left in the second half before Wright
scored only a minute later on a 30-yard

“I think the offense had a good night
moving the ball and creating opportunities, which kept the pressure off
the defense,” said Nandua coach Dana
Wright. “I am so proud of how well our
players have come together as a team.”

Raffle Winner
Jennifer Taylor of Accomac displays the Central Accomack Little League raffle prize of $2,000
sponsored by Coastal Homes by
Berach. For the fifth consecutive year, Coastal Homes sponsored the Central Accomack Little
League annual fundraiser. Onley
Preschool provides the raffle tickets, and Coastal Homes provides
the $2,000 cash prize given away
at the opening ceremonies each
spring. The proceeds from the raffle help defer the operating costs
of the CALL park in Onancock.
where the organization will coordinate,
pickup and ship baseball and softball
equipment to Uganda. Items that the
Aces will send over include jerseys,
hats, batting gloves, catchers’ equipment, cleats, wooden and metal bats,
baseballs/softballs, socks and sports
apparel. The drive will continue until
June 15, when the items will be packaged and sent to Uganda.
“It is our goal to uniform and
equip 400 players,” said Aces President Dave Whigham. “We have the
resources to do this; it is just a matter of collecting the respective items.
Seeing players learning without
shoes, wearing ripped-up clothes and
hitting with broken bats makes you
really appreciate what we have here
in the US. Our volunteers are contributing to a global cause, but they
will also be learning a little bit about
themselves in the process.”
“This is an amazing opportunity for
us to contribute to the growth of baseball worldwide,” said Whigham. “I read
an article on baseball in Uganda late
last winter and it made me really want
to help them with its progression.”
Ugandan baseball has grown exponentially over the past decade as
Major League Baseball stars Derek
Lee and Jimmy Rollins, among others, have contributed. Two years ago,
Uganda became the first team from
Africa to make the Little League
World Series and a documentary, The
Opposite Field, was created shortly
thereafter. The Aces are also in the process
of setting up a mission trip to Uganda from Sept. 5-15, where Whigham
and Aces strength and conditioning
coordinator Mike Castrignano, will
instruct the Ugandan youth on the
basics of baseball. The pair will travel
to several different baseball camps
throughout the country as organized
by Jaban and the USABA. Airfare has
already been donated for the trip and
a fundraiser is being put in place to
assist the 10-day tour.

Third in a Series
By Rev. Andrew Matthews MDiv
MAKING YOUR FAMILY FUNCTION like any
organization will depend on leadership to succeed.
Traditionally, men have been viewed as the leader
of the home but in all honesty many homes are not
very functional because the men have been dysfunctional in their leadership. When it comes to leadership models, men typically default to the Military/
Corporate America’s CEO idea of leadership where
the leader calls all the shots and people under his
leadership do what he says. That kind of leadership
is necessary in those organizations, but in the family a different kind of leader is needed. Men must be
loving leaders to both their wives and children if the
family is to function properly.
Let’s consider six ways a man can be the kind of
leader every family needs and will flourish under.
Men who lead in the home will first engage the
rest of the family in the decisions of the home. If you
are even remotely religious, you likely have been given the impression that the man as “the head of the
household” means he makes all the decisions. If that
were true, which it is not, it would be a very dangerous scenario for one person to hold that kind of power. Leadership in a family is not about gaining power
but about leading the other family members in decision making. In a functional family, a man will solicit
the input of his wife in all decisions as an equal partner. When it is possible, the man will involve children in decisions so they can feel part of the family
and learn how to make good decisions in the future.
Men Who Are Loving Leaders
Visit myzbc.com to watch a video, “Kingdom Man”
that explains this concept in greater detail.
Secondly, men who lead need to constantly work
at communication with the family. Studies show that
women use approximately 25,000 words a day while
the average man will use only 12,500. Men need to
work at communication. A man will build marital intimacy, in part, through communication with his wife
by self-revelation, listening and reflecting what she
shared back to her. Healthy communication with children is not through barking orders and expectations,
but through listening first, asking the right questions
and always making time to answer their questions.
Thirdly, men who lead in the home will live out
their priorities. Many men mistakenly make work
and wealth building the top priority of life. In functional families, men generally have these top three
priorities: God, wife and children . . . and in that order. Whatever comes after that isn’t as important
as the top three. Priorities will show our values and
values are what shape our lives.
Fourthly, a man who leads loves the members of
his family unconditionally. St. Paul states sacrificial
love as the primary action of the husband toward the
wife in Ephesians 5:25. Children’s primary need is to
be loved and accepted by their fathers. The love that
both wives and children need from the man of the
house will require an attitude of sacrifice from that
man. Good leaders will think of others before they
think of their own desires and needs.
Fifthly, men who lead determine the values of the
home. All men, whether intentionally or not, whether
good or bad, set the values of a home. All humans are
made in such a way that what our father values will
always be a major influence in our lives. To establish
positive, life-giving values, men need to work with
their wives to search through the deep issues of life:
morality, justice, purpose, life goals and the afterlife.
Then as values are determined, the man needs to ensure those are taught to the children.
Lastly, men who lead stay personally healthy
through self-care. How can a man effectively lead
if he is emotionally spent, physically exhausted, or
spiritually bankrupt? Maintaining holistic personal
health is a wonderful example for a man to set for his
children and allows him to engage with his wife and
children without encumbrances. We live our lives in
seven days: our work, our relationships, our recreation and our rest all happen within seven days.
Within those seven days God established a rhythm
of six and one — six days to work so the man can provide for his family and one day of rest so the man can
be renewed physically, relationally and spiritually.
Part of being a good leader in the home means the
man takes good care of himself so he can be a blessing to others.
