Ski area plans ‘Year-round’ operation at Rcsppahapjiock By DOUGLAS LEES “WE THINK a good ski area is nicer than a bare mountain,” said Tom Moore of the Rappahannock Ski Corporation, in discussing his firm’s plans for development to the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors last Thursday. The Rappahannock Ski Corporation is an affiliate of the Camelback Corporation of Pennsylvania. Camelback owns approximately 96 % of the Rappahannock corporation. Before getting to his point—land development— Moore told the board how beautiful the area is, how attracted his corporation was to Virginia, and how any planning and development that they did would be done working with the Rappahannock planning commission. Moore emphasized the “we want to work with you” concept of land development. How much development is anticipated, Moore would not say, but he did describe what is planned in Pennsylvania. “We plan a 16-building two-cluster condominium for the whole ski area,” Moore said. He added that they had hired a land consultant and that “what we’ve done there we will do here.” MOORE SAID that when the firm bought the Rappahannock site the corporation was “particularly fascinated with Virginia.” “We were interested in acquiring a mountain,—sitting on it, and then developing it,” Moore added. Moore said the Camelback Ski Corporation is primarily a ski area, but once Rappahannock is developed, a year-round recreation area will be planned. Moore said that the Rappahannock corporation;, is 96% owned by Camelback and both suffered a loss last year. “A ski area is consistent with beauty and good planning. We just built a new trail, you can’t even see it. The erosion is bad, so for every tree we have cut we plant ten at Camel Washington carnival THE WASHINGTON FIRE Department and Rescue Squad benefit carnival began last night and will continue Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the carnival ground just off Route 211. Rides, games prizes, food and fun are featured at the annual event. A special attraction for Friday evening, July 13 will be the selection of a young lady for carnival queen, with a coronation ceremony declaring the winner honorary fire chief for the following year. Though it will be Friday the 13th, some lovely lassie will be lucky. Rides are featured on the midway each evening and the food stand always provides abundant good food, coffee and sweets. The Washington Fire Company and Rescue Squad needs the support of everyone to be able to continue the service rendered the public. Only last week this unit was commended for its excellent, rapid service which probably was responsible for saving the life of a local resident who is presently recuperating in the hospital from a serious heart condition. □ back. We want the ski area beautiful. It’s good for business and good for use,” Moore said. MOORE DID concede one disadvantage: ‘‘We hope to create a substantial traffic flow in the county on Route 211.” Later in the meeting, Moore explained that “we want*, that one mile into the ski place paved. We can work that out, this year or next. Also, the three one-lane bridges, of which only one is left.” That will be a real mess,” Moore warned of the one-lane bridge. Among our long-range plans is a lift to Jenkins Mountain where we plan a year-round restaurant. We will want to serve hard liquor. I realize this is a dry county, but someday we’d like to serve liquor; it’s a money-maker. When we start any land development we will be working with you,” Moore said. Moore predicted that the development’s county revenues would more than outweigh the cost of any services that may be required. “I’VE TALKED to the people in Rappahannock County. They are more concerned with the community than money problems,” said Tom Moore. Besides the traffic that would be created by the project. Moore warned of what happened in Pennsylvania, where billboards line the road leading to the ski area, and the “piggy-back” effect. “In the Poconos, (at Camelback), the road is filled with billboards. They look like the dickens. This happened in Pennsylvania. We’ve seen a pretty area ruined by piggy-backing,” Moore said. “Piggy-backing,” said Moore, is any commercial enterprise that advertises its proximity to the ski resort. This is often primarily other land developers. “We want to be your friends in the community, and be able to stop a sore from becoming a cancer. We want some customers, and you—special rates for your public school children. We’d like you to See Page 2 Washington Firemens and Rescue Squad benefit carnival opened Wednesday mgnt and continues tonight, Friday and Saturday at the carnival grounds just east of the town.

The State of Virginia has awarded a $297,053 contract to erect 300 “travel services signs” at 25 interchanges along Interstate 95 between the Virginia-North Carolina state line and the Woodbridge interchange near the Occoquan River. According to a release from the "Virginia Department of Highways, these signs “will show available gasoline, food and lodging facilities by name, brand or trademark,” thus making Virginia “one of the first states in tbe nation to make such specific information for travelers a permanent part of its official signing program.” We’tl just as soon Virginia didn’t have this “first.” First of all, why must the taxpayers— through their gasoline taxes—foot the bill for $300,000 wdrth of free advertising for “gasoline, food and lodging facilities?” Second, what difference does it make what “gas” is. available—they’re all much the same, if we are to believe numerous consumer reports. The same goes for the motels and those heated frozen food emporiums that line the interstates. If you can close your eyes and tell the difference between the frozen peas in a Howard Johnson’s or a Holiday Inn, you just may have the most sensitive palate known to medical science. Or the deadest. BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, if the Virginia Highway Department really has more money than it knows what to do with—as seems to be the case— maybe its better for them to spend it on free advertising signs. Otherwise, they might spend the money to build more ugly by-passes and more useless highways. □ Ski area plans From Page 1 visit us in the off season,” Moore said. MOORE APOLOGIZED for the ‘‘Piedmont Pike,” a slope that a previous company had cut at the ski area. He called ita‘‘gash” in the mountain. ‘‘Wedidn’t do that—we would never have.” Chairman of the Rappahannock Supervisors, Newbill Miller asked Moore if he planned to‘‘goprivate,” as a club. Moore said no, adding that Bryce is private because it is a much bigger land development operation than Rappahannock could become. “Well, we hope to sell 64 units this fall at Camelback. There are 370 acres at Rappahannock, much of which is not good land for development. I don’t believe there’s enough space to go private,” said Moore. “Of course, you can have a private club within a public area,” he added. □ Barns The barn last week belonged to Dr. Werner Krebser and is located near HunOy.

Disability aid program MORE THAN THREE million disabled wokers and their families are getting monthly social security payments as the social security disability program begins its 16th year this month, according to Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, social security district manager in Winchester. When social security disability payments were first paid in July 1957, only disabled workers between 50 and 65 were eligible for payments, she said. “Today, severely disabled workers of any age under 65 and certain members of their families can get disability payments. And starting this month, disabled people who have been entitled to social security payments for 2 years or more can get Medicare protection,” she said. To be eligible for social security disability payments, a worker must be severely disabled and unable to work for a year or more. Payment begins for the sixth month of disability. GENERALLY, Mrs. Crumpton added, a worker who becomes disabled in 1973 must have worked in employment covered under social security for at least 5 1/2 years—and five years of work must have been during the 10 years before his disability began. “Young workers, however, may be eligible for disability payments with as little as 1-1/2 years of covered work, depending on their age and when they became disabled,” Mrs. Crumpton said. “A worker between the ages of 24 and 31 needs credit for having worked under social security half the period between the time he became 21 and the time he became disabled,” she explained. “Before age 24, the worker needs credit for 1-1/2 years of work in the three year period before his disability began.” . “When a worker applies for disability payments, he submits medical evidence to establish his disability. Then, physicians and other disability experts in a State agency—usually the State’s vocational rehabilitation agency decide whether the worker is disabled under the social security law. “IN MOST cases,” she said, “the State agency can make the determination on the basis of medical evidence from the applicant’s own. physician. If additional evidence is needed, further medical tests may be required at the Government’s expense.” In selected cases, social security helps pay for vocational rehabilitation services, and rehabilitation can include job training, physical therapy, and similar services. Nearly two million disabled workers get monthly about 1.7 million social security disability beneficiaries will get Medicare coverage starting July 1, Mrs. Crumpton said.

In the B&W game the Kings were led by Fred Fisher 4 for 4 and Stewart Henry 3 for 4. Louis Moore made several fine defensive plays in each game. The Kings record to date is seven wins and no losses. They will play a double header at King Memorial Park, Castleton , this Sunday.

3 E L I T T L c F 0 X Extra Rappahannock zoning hours RAPPAHANNOCK’S Board of Supervisors voted last Thursday by a 3-2 margin to have one man work two days a week in the zoning office. The board, on a motion by Mrs. Betty Coates, voted to ask Col. Evan McNear, who now works one day a week for $105.50 a month, to work two days a week at $20 a day to do three jobs. Col. McNear is now the zoning administrator and also the head of Civil Defense. He was asked by the Board to assume the duties of building inspector, also. Chairman of the board of supervisors, Newbill Miller, voted against the motion saying, “You know he can’t. He said he can’t work one more day a week.” This is because McNear is retired, it was explained. Mrs. Coates explained her opinion in the event McNear turns down the increase: “If I find that I can’t do the job, I would resign.” THE DEBATE over the job came up when chairman of the planning commission, H. S. Barksdale, came before the commission to request an assistant for Col. McNear, to work two extra days, Barksdale suggested Francis Baumgardner, but no action was taken on this action was taken on^this suggestion. Barksdale said that the success of the zoning ordinance and the county’s low tax rate depended on the administration of the ordinance, and he asked that an assistant be approved for two extra days a week. “This is not a great big item,” Barksdale commented. CHAIRMAN Miller, who is alsoon the planning commission, agreed with Barksdale, s saying it was for the good of the county. “The county can’t lose in the appointment of an extra man.” Mrs. Coates immediately questioned the appointment of an extra man. She said this person would be “another interpreter.” “Two' people interpreting these laws; there will be a mixup in communications. I’d rather see one man do the whole job," she said. “Good point,” said Commonwealth’s Attorney Geoorge Davis. “I don’t think communications will be a problem,” Miller said. “It’ll work itself out,” said board member Herbert Foster. “We can’t wait for it to be worked out,” Mrs. Coates said. “Increase his time.” “Three days a week?” Miller asked. “One man for three days,” H. B. Wood Jr. said. MRS. COATES then questioned the zoning ordinance and planning devices in the county. “From what I’ve seen, natural growth would be better than planned growth on the roadside.” Mrs. Coates then made a motion to ask McNear to two days or three, if necessary, and be building inspector also. Wood seconded the motion. “What happens if he turns it down?” Foster asked. “Get somebody else, get one person,” Mrs. Coates said. “We’ve got a fairly smooth program. Why stop it abruptly? I*m just not in favor of it,” Miller said. “We’re not going to stop it abruptly,” Mrs. Coates said. “You know he can’t. He said he can’t work one more day a week,” Miller said. “If I find that I can’t do the job I would resign,” Mrs. Coates countered. Barksdale thought it would be “a mistake” to remove Col. McNear from his position. “Mr. Barksdale, people in my district say they don’t understand the zoning ordinance,” Mrs. Coates said. “No way to make zoning oridnances easy to understand,” Miller said. THE VOTE was taken, with Mrs. Coates, Wood and J. R. Latham voting for the motion, and Miller and Foster against. Barksdale then brought up the subdivision moratorium, which has been in effect several months, and asked for a 60-day extension. Barksdale said the county’s ordinances were nearing completion, but that more time is needed. “It’s a complicated thing. We’re having heated arguments everytime we have these discussions, that’s why we’re asking for it (60 days),” Miller said. George Davis then suggested a “work session” between the board and planning commission to discuss the progress of the ordinance revision. They agreed to have the meeting but didn’t set a date. The supervisors then voted unanimously to extend the moratorium for 60 days, with Latham indicating it was his last vote for a moratorium. I’ll ^ second it for 60 days, * but I’ll give fair warning that’s the end of my moratorium,” was the way Latham put it. The board heard from the Mayor of Washington, Andrew Kozik, who asked about “the dump situation.” Mrs. Coates, chairman of the dump committee, said, “We plan to go into Warren county. There is no land in this county suitable for a dump. This is expensive. Warren county feels it is more feasible for us to go in their dump.” Newbill Miller remind ed the board that after July 1 “we’re in violation of the law. The Amissville dump is filled.” “It’s a temporary inconvenience. There’s a problem. It’s all over the United States. You are turning to us and we have no one to turn to,” Miller commented. THE BOARD voted to advertise for bids for trash collection, with special emphasis on anybody who might have a place to deposit the trash. “If the bids are identical but one has a site, we’ll give it to the one who has a dump site,” Wood suggested. The board voted to set a meeting with Dr. R. S. LeGarde for Monday, July 23, at 7:30 p.m. concerning a sewer project to stop the pollution of the Thornton River. LeGarde said that 29 residents are dumping into the Thornton River and added that members from the State Water Control Board would be present at the meeting to discuss a solution. LeGarde said, “Without (a sewer) there can be no growth, only a little growth. That’s what makes it so difficult; there’s not much growth potential.” The board re-appointed Barksdale to the planning commission. His term had expired. The board welcomed Lewellyn Strough as the new extension agent for the county replacing Rhonda Marsh Yates, who was recently married and will move away. — Douglas Lees BAPTIST SERVICES Services will be held at Washington Baptist Church Sunday, July 15 at 11 a.m. Mr. Baker of the Virginia Baptist Home staff in Culpeper will deliver the message. □ General Purpose Exterior White Paint Goes on easily, covers well, resists cracking, checking.

Si Sez “THEY THAT WAIT UPON the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40: 31. The Book doesn’t say he has to be a doddering old shell because he is a Senior Citizen. AS I hobble down this last mile of my journey I run across some puzzling situations. It used to be one of the techniques of runners to conserve some of their stamina for a final burst of energy as they neared the goal. That was fine, sometimes it worked, and that spurt of energy broke the ribbon. My problem is not like that; quite. I don’t plan to take my car and try to make this last mile in nothing flat. As far as I’m concerned they can just leave me at the post; I’m in no hurry. I do have a problem, however. Statistics prove that the older driver has fewer accidents than the younger driver. Why then should people raise the coverage on these elder citizens or refuse to renew that coverage because of a certain age? Does the young driver experience this difficulty, even though he is a greater risk from an accident point of view? Why discriminate against the senior citizen, of which I am one? Remember, we’re growing in number. □ jpThe ffinal 4§>ribut6 Perfection in Details CLORE FUNERAL HOME “The Home of Thoughtful Service” CEMETERY MEMORIALS PHONI 825-1361 CULPEPER SEE US FOR •I * mcmt-mcwm ALL Your Farm Lubrication Needs — Why Not Call Today.

Phone VA5-8383 Culpeper Traffic deaths THE 593 Virginia traffic deaths so far reported for the first half of 1973 show an increase of eleven when compared with those for the same period of 1972, says Colonel H.W. Burgess, Superintendent of State Police. Noting that traffic volumes for the period were up about seven percent, Colonel Burgess said that the 1973 statistic is subject to slight upward revision due to late reports and deaths of persons now carried as injured. He observed that good reductions were obtained in the earlier months of the year and as late as May 12 deaths were 38 below the comparable 1972 total. However, a record breaking May toll of 117 and the 123 June deaths, which marked the second highest toll for the month, wiped out the gains. TURN YOUR FREE TIME INTO MONEY!
