Richard Keller, of Kellerco, the company which developed an analysis of current road-use patterns and proposals for the future for the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission, presented the report and alternatives for further consideration. Mr. Keller said he had done work in Williamsburg and Annapolis and was aware of constraints of working in historic and scenic areas. “Two years ago it occurred to me that we could prevent some of the problems,” he said. “You don’t have to have congestion here.” He suggested the county could develop “futuristic options” to prevent the problems that have plagued other nearby areas. “You can put a different spin on highway planning and prevent future traffic congestion. You can manage access and reduce infrastructure costs.” He said traffic projections were based on VDOT estimates. “You can envision the kind of corridors you want in this county. That is not usually done.” He said in past projects he has been involved with in Virginia and elsewhere there have included one-day retreats to develop creative solutions. “You can develop hybrid solutions, some ideas that are not on the option sheet,” he said. He said it takes eight to 12 years to get a road built once the need for it is recognized. “If you wait too long, you can have serious safety problems,” he added. Mr. Keller said the Interstate 81 corridor is one of the fastest growing in the nation. That will affect Rappahannock County he said. He noted the traffic projections for 2010 do not include any estimate for development that does not currently exist, and such developments, whether in Rappahannock or surrounding counties can affect the county ’s traffic.

Mint Julep. Board Gets $6.3 Million School Bill County Share Grows Larger By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock Ne*» Staff Writer School Superintendent David Gangel presented a $6.3 million dollar budget proposal for next year to the School Board Tuesday night;, up 8.3 percent from the current budget. The budget requires an additional $615,200 in local funds, an 18.2 percent increase or about 12 cents on the tax rate. For a property valued at $100,000 that would mean an additional $ 120. There were few surprises in the budget since Dr. Gangel had received approval from the board to include the requests at the February meeting. Some of the increases were less than he had anticipated because they were offset by decreases in other categories, but there was bad news on sources of funding other than from the county. State aid is projected to be reduced by $10,160, and the federal contribution is budgeted at $37,570 less for next year. Other funds are also projected to be reduced by $83,500, but this includes a reduction of $196,800 because of the end of the RJR/N'abisco grant. The county’s share of the state sales tax is expected to increase by $34,000. The budget includes a 5 percent increase to the teacher's salary scale, and 3 percent increases for most other staff. Teachers' aides would have a 1 percent increase to their scale, and some would also qualify for step increases. Administrators would also receive a larger percentage increase. The proposal includes $41,480 to replace the roof over the elementary school gym and cafeteria.

Competing in their first Odyssey of the Mind (OM)Tournament, the Division 11 RCES team won a third place trophy and ribbons for solving the problem called “Scientific Safari.” The awards were announced last Saturday afternoon at Liberty High School in Fauquier County, the 1995 host for the Northwest Virginia Regional Tournament. Liberty High was bustling with OM activity well before 8:15 a.m. when the Rappahannock team arrived. The school was filled with OM team members, their siblings, coaches, teachers, parents and administrators as 115 scheduled presentations took place. There were five problem categories to solve: Scientific Safari, The Mail Must Go Through, Classics...Vaudeville, A New Twist, and Time Traveler. Each category problem was divided by age Into Divisions 1, II, and III. There was a non competitive primary problem entitled Math Party, as well. Even though this was an official com This is the coolest thing I 've ever done! ’ - Odyssey Participant petition, opponents sincerely cheered, genuinely praised and admired each other as the creative spirit flowed through the day. The audiences were repeatedly treated to unique, humorous and creative presentations. The Rappahannock teams were fortunate to have four dedicated and enthusiastic teachers as their coaches. Beth Ti 11inghast, Liz Tower, Teresa Rudolph and Beth James are the fine educators with the unenviable task of guiding their charges with the “adults’ hands off” approach as prescribed by the OM rules. “It was all up to the kids,” said one of the stalwart volunteers. For Scientific Safari the team had to “design,construct and drive a safari vehicle The vehicle will leave a Camp and be driven on a safari where it will encounter team-constructed animals. The team will Man Burned in Shop Fire By CINDY MAHAN Rappahannock New* Staff Writer Last Tuesday morning, Archie Bailey, who lives on Route 614 in Gid Brown Hollow, was working on a Volkswagen engine in his garage when he heard his kerosene heater make a loud “pop" noise, and then, he said, “There were flames all over.” Luckily for Mr. Bailey, he was able to escape from a side door of the garage, as the main entrance was engulfed in tlames. He did, however, sustain first, second and third degree burns, mostly on his hands and face. He said his face looks like he has a bad sunburn. A home health nurse visits him daily to change the bandages on his right hand, which has third degree bums. “As best as 1 can determine, it blew up. 1 was three feet away from it,” said Mr. Bailey. According to Richie Burke, Chief of the Sperryville Fire Department, Mr. Bailey was transported to the hospital in Front Royal where he was treated and released. Four companies reported to the fire: Sperryville, Flint Hill, Washington and Amissville. Mr. Bailey had a lot of flammable items in the garage which added to the intensity of the fire, such as acetylene and oxygen tanks, a five gallon container of gas, paint and paint thinner, and automotive engine parts. Also lost in the fire was new welding equipment which had not yet been used. Mr. Bailey said that several thousands of dollars of items were lost in the lire, but he is thankful to the tire and rescue teams which came to his aid so quickly. tag some animals, rescue an injured animal, collect a new animal species, relocate animals and stop poachers. Ihe team will also make a trailer that will he towed by the vehicle during part of the safari. In addition the team will develop a theme for its safari. The time limit is eight minutes. Materials used cannot exceed $ 100.” Because of technical problems the students had to build a completely new vehicle on Thursday. The Division II team only had Friday after school to practice for the following day's tournariienr. By 9 p.m. Friday the team members felt discouraged and tired. They decided to follow through with their presentation even though their vehicle had yet to solve the problem within the allotted eight minutes. Many team members were hoping for a miraculous snow or ice storm that would postpone the tournament. The Division I team worked just as hard as Division II. Disappointed Division I team members decided late Friday evening not to compete because of problems encountered with their vehicle. Ihe Division I team members and their parents came to Saturday's tournament to show support for the Division II members and to see what other schools had created for the tournament. “I his is the coolest thing I’ve ever done!” one of the team members told his mom after the tournament. 1 he challenge of cooperative, creative problem solving sparked and held the interest ot the following RCES students: Dawn Andreoni, Zach Ashby, Steven Clark, John Everett, Chris Hall, Eric Norman and Sky Watson from Division I, and Meghan Fairbrother, Chris Graves, Colin Nichols, Ryland Pace, Aaron Price, Kenny Robinson and Matt Wolfe of Division II. Odyssey of the Mind is an international association that charters affiliates to sponsor the contests in their jurisdictions. First place winners from association llnalsare eligible to compete in the Odyssey of the Mind World Finals. Through the development of cooperative teams of students, the OM Association ■‘pros ides opportunities to develop creative problem-solving skills that are important in an ever-changing world,” according to materials supplied by the organization. The school system hopes that this year’s competition will be expanded in future years with more teams from Rappahannock competing in Odyssey of the Mind.

Scholarship Money Available For RCHS Seniors Who Apply By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer There are thousands of dollars of scholarships waiting for this year’s Rappahannock County High School graduates to help them attend college. Most are given by local organizations, but the largest is given by an individual, Robert Darby of Woodville. The Darby scholarship, which can be as large as $1,250 per year for four years, goes to a student planning to major in math, science or engineering. To continue to receive the award a student must have at least a 2.7 grade point average his freshman year and maintain a 3.0 grade point average, during the sophomore and junior years. Like most of the scholarships this one requires those interested to submit an essay and application. Unlike most it also requires an interview. The scholarship is awarded based on grades, SAT scores and performance during the interview. The Faith Mountain Company also offers a scholarship that can be good for more than one year. This one can be $ 1,000 a year for two years. Requirements are an essay, application and interview. The scholarship is awarded based on grades, extracurricular activities and SAT scores. Recipients must have a 2.7 grade point average at the end of the first year to get the scholarship for the second year. The Garden Club awards a onetime award of $1,500. Applications for this scholarship are being taken now. No essay is required, but there is an application and interview. The scholarship is awarded based on counselor recommendation, academic ability, desire to attend college and financial need. There are two scholarships good for full-tuition for one year at Lord Fairfax Community College. One is given by the college itself and requires an essay and application. The award is based on transcripts and a letter of recommendation. The other is given by Principal John Toth and is his decision alone. No application or essay is required. No application, interview, or essay is required for the $500 writing award either. Started by James J. Kilpatrick, when he was a county resident, the award goes to the best writer in the senior class. The English teachers select the recipient of this award. The Mary McNeil Willis Scholarship awards $1,000 to a student who plans to enter a health related field. A short essay and application is required. The award is based on financial need and academic achievement. The Buemer Award of $ 100 goes to a student who has had to make an “unusual effort” to finish high school There are numerous other scholar ships awarded by community organizations. Guidance counselor Joyce Brown keeps track of the deadlines and conditions for all of these. She helps students select the ones they have the best chance of winning and reminds them of what they need to do to qualify. Most of the scholarships are available for only the first year. Mrs. Brown says students need to go to the financial aid offices in the colleges they attend to find out what help may available for later years. Scholarship recipients are notified at graduation. Mrs. Brown said she is very pleased with the amount of scholarship money Rappahannock organizations and individuals make available to county graduates to help them continue their education. ?PpJV/> SUMMIT TRAVEL, INC| LURAY, VA CORPORATE LEISURE For all your travel requirements Call: 1-800-743-3060 or (703) 743-5000 Fax (703) 743-5555 ,fDo you have the winter blahs?

One claims that fear of litigation is what motivates the administration. But an injured student would be the reason for such litigation. So it is concern for safety that stands behind these school policies. An accident, whether or not it became the subject of suit, would be a tragic outcome for such an activity. Certainly an alarming growth in the legal liability business is an unfortunate part of our lives. Common sense needs more support. 1 The Odyssey of the Mind program has great potential. It would be wonderful if more and more students become involved in this creative activity. Students, parents and teachers need to work together qnd with administrators to see that this growth is accompanied by true creativity, not over reliance on high tech solutions and elaborate equipment. ; It is not likely that other winning teams competed with gasoline powered vehicles. We trust the county’s representatives learned there are many ways to power a vehicle. In future years more thought needs to go into establishing sensible rules for safety early tn the process. Traffic ! It was fun to tell the highway expert Rappahannock does not want his road improvements and just wants the traffic to go away. ; It is not likely to be a successful strategy, however. 1 There is little pleasure living in a rural village if trucks make it nearly impossible to cross the street. And if the shortest distance between two points on the driver’s route passes through Rappahannock County, the traffic is not going to go away. ! The county needs bypasses around Sperryville and Flint Hill pow. Woodville will need one sooner rather than later. The longer the process is delayed, the more likely it will be that some residential and commercial properties are cut off from their village centers. Letters Newspaper Praised To the Editor: I would like to congratulate the Rappahannock News for being named the best small weekly newspaper in Virginia for 1994. This honor is well deserved. Sharon Kilpatrick has brought integrity, grit, balance, and expert journalistic sense to her job as Editor, and Cindy Mahan’s articles and photographs are sensitive and artistic. The paper has grown in range and depth since they both assumed their current positions. I have especially enjoyed the paper’s series on the county’s country stores, its profiles of county citizens and businesses (such as the recent article on the influx of “lone eagles” into the county), its coverage of exhibitions at the Middle Street Gallery, and its coverage of the county’s many other cultural events. I also appreciate Ms. Kilpatrick’s open door policy for publishing articles by, county residents which have frequently widened my horizons, such as Diana Bird’s ongoing series of articles on visits to Russia. Letting these “guest writers" reach the community in print expands the usefulness of the Rappahannock News as a forum for the county. Many thanks for the good work of the whole staff at the Rappahannock News. ROB SHERWOOD Washington Students Need Shop Classes To the Editor: I was one of seven 6th and 7th grade students selected to represent Rappahannock County Elementary School at the Northwest Regional Odyssey of the Mind competition for middle schools. I would like to take this time to thank our coaches (Ms. Tower, Ms. Rudolph, Ms. James and Ms. Tillinghast) for their support and time they gave us. I would also like to thank those parents and teachers who supported us when the going got rough. The competition was a worth-' while learning experience. Unfortunately, many obstacles were thrown in our direction by our county school administrators. Halfway through our practices, we were told we could not use power tools (drills, sanders, jig saw) or our paint (toxic). We used hand tools and tempera paint for the rest of our practices. With two weeks to go before the competition, we were notified by the same administrators, that we could not use our second power source to make the vehicle we built go, a combustion engine. We understood their reasoning on that. With one week left, l worked at night to rebuild an electric motor that would be powered by a marine battery. 1 completed this engine on the Wednesday before the Saturday competition. Wednesday afternoon, we were once again told we could not use that power either, because of the battery. When questioned, the county school official said the battery could be hooked up wrong and spark. 1 already had it hooked and working. Hey! At least they're not carrying concealed weapons. Our Rappahannock Heritage -.****. ■ mrjKrj a. dm™-* ’ W'. Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Cindy Mahan Barkley, a tri-color Jack Russell Terrier, waits patiently for the next race Saturday. Then he said that someone could knock or bother the battery. We offered to put it in a closed wooden box. Then we were told we might drop it, and that the battery could break. The final reason given to us was that our coaches were not qualified to teach us the way to use the battery properly. If Rappahannock County wants their middle school aged students competing against their peers in competitions like this, maybe some of the restrictions need to be addressed, or maybe the 6th and 7th graders should be allowed to take an industrial arts and home ec class at the high school as other middle schools have those course in their schools. But even with all those obstacles. The RCES Division II team won third place. Imagine what we could have done, if we had a second power source for our vehicle and we could have used our power tools. CHRIS GRAVES RCES Div. II OM Team Odyssey Teams Hampered By Policies To the Editor: What began as technical problems in preparation for the Odyssey of the Mind Competition last Saturday to build a vehicle that could perform predetermined tasks in a set amount of time, dissolved into what for most of the young students was their first taste of bureaucratic red tape. OM’s guidelines and rules contrasted with Rappahannock County School System’s unwritten, vague, and seemingly changing regulations regarding how the students could approach their problem and what par ticular power sources they could use. Up until two weeks before the tournament, the Rappahannock teams worked according to schedule and March 4 was happily anticipated. With approval of theif parents, the children had been using various power tools and paint under closely supervised circumstances (each group of seven students was supervised by two teachers.) At this point, fear of litigation prompted Rappahannock County School Administrators to declare that power tools and paints were off limits. “Why don’t they tell us sooner?,” one of the students asked. With no time to waste, the students focused on the problem at hand, installing two different types of power sources in their vehicle. After a gasoline powered engine was ready to install, the students were told by school administrators that they couldn’t use it. The frustrated students came up with an alternate power source, a battery powered motor. It was brought to school, ready to install and once more rejected, this time only four days before the tournament. Just two days before the tournament, the original vehicle was scrapped and a completely new one was designed and built. The new) vehicle employed human power as it/ only source of energy. The team lost points in the tournament because their vehicle only had one source of power. Most team participants and parents complained that the Rappahannock County School Administrators’ fear of litigation and resulting regulations cramped the students’ ability to creatively solve the chosen problem. The students were unnecessarily burdened with stress and frustration just days before the tournament. The problem and the resulting chaos could have been avoided, had the students received a list of off limits tools and power sources from the administrators early in the planning stages. Instead, this situation created unreasonably intense last minute time pressures for the students. LORINDA KAY Huntly Speedy Refund To the Editor: 1 write, with glee, about what certainly must be a new benchmark to be recorded in the Guinness Book of Records. On Monday, Feb. 13, I submitted my 1994 Virginia State Income tax return, on which I was due a refund, to Betsy at the Commissioner of Revenue Office in Washington. On Friday, Feb. 17, I found in my post office box in Amissville my 1994 Virginia State Tax refund. That’s five days, folks! Five days from start to finish, beginning to end, one day shorter than it recently took a letter mailed in Warrenton to reach my in Amissville address, via the Dulles Distribution Center. If anyone beats this refund record let us know. I figure the only way to get faster service will be for Betsy to hand out refund checks as she Veceives returns. Who knows?

/ Part of Rose River Stocked for Kids ; A three-quarter mile stretch of a popular and well-stocked trout stream in Virginia will as usual be reserved for children only to fish in when the Virginia trout tishing season opens at 9a.m. on Saturday, March 18. I No license is needed and there is no charge. This will be on the Rose River in Madison County, along Route 670 between Criglersville and Syria. This is a clear buddy mountain stream not tar downstream from where it flows from Shenandoah Park. There are plenty of ott-road parking spaces, and grassy areas for family picnics. « Atter opening day this section of the Rose will be open to all fishermen, but for this one day only it is set aside for boys and girls age 12 and under who otherwise might have trou ble finding places to fish along crowded streams. This will be the 15th year for this outing, a joint endeavor of the Rapidan Chapter of Trout Unlimited, the Virginia Department of Inland Fisheries, and landowner Jimmy Graves of Graves Mountain Lodge. Several hundred youngsters enjoy this program and many catch fish, some even their legal limit of six trout. Adults may accompany the children but cannot fish. Members of Trout Unlimited will be on hand to aid novice anglers. Children should bring their own tackle and bait. Almost any light freshwater gear will do, and worms, cheese balls and salmon eggs are popular opening-day baits. Course on Computers Offered for Farmers By KENNER P.

► Traffic 1 From Page A-l v r.- . — He noted that Routes 642, 729, - 642, 610, and 626 already have over 1,000 cars a day. Routes 621 and 729 are becoming important commuter shortcuts, he said. He said there may be sections of U.S. 211 between Washington and Sperryville that the county will want to make six lanes wide. His alternatives also included four-laning U.S. 522 between Massie’s Corner and Chester Gap and between Sperryville and the Culpeper County line. Also shown were potential by-passes of Woodville and Flint Hill as well as Sperryville. He said the intersection of U.S. 522 and Route 231 might need to be relocated and the intersection at Massie’s Corner might need “grade separation. That doesn’t mean a clover leaf intersection,” he said. He added it could be a “folded diamond” interchange. Hampton District representative Mike Massie asked, “Instead of assuming road plans for more and more traffic, what can we do to keep these road counts from growing?” His question was greeted with applause from the audience. Several members of the audience joined in asking for help in preventing the increased traffic. They suggested Earth Day Plans Begin This year marks the 25th anniversary of Earth Day, and like many communities and cities across the globe, Rappahannock will have its own celebration to mark the occasion. On Saturday, April 22 following the 17th running of the Fodderstack Race, Earth Day will be the focus of activities at Ben Venue Farm in conjunction wit the Earth Day Kite Fly. This Friday, March 10 at 4 p.m. at the Ben Venue site there will be an organizational meeting to begin coordinating plans for the Earth Day events. Anyone interested in participating should call 675-1879 at the Ragged Mountain Resource Center or Brenda Van Ness at 987-9527. lower speed limits, but Mr. Keller said the county would not be allowed to lower speed limits just to discourage traffic from using a road. “You can’t just say we don’t want anything to happen,” he said. Piedmont District representative Charles K. “Pete” F.stes said traffic, especially truck traffic, will use U.S. 522 as a way to get from 1-81 to U.S. 29 south of Culpeper, and nothing the county can do will change that. “If you four-lane it, doesn’t that make it infinitely more attractive to the tractor-trailer driver?” Scott McBride asked. County Administrator John McCarthy acknowledged, “Roads always fill up, but by not improving do you cut down traffic?” “You’ve painted a picture of inevitability,” Mary Jamieson said. “There should be ways to combine zoning and roads so we discourage traffic.” She said Route 621 had been made a “metal alley.” Frank Warner said if VDOT would enforce its requ'rement that a new driveway had to have 10 feet of sight distance for every 10 miles-perhour of traffic speed, that would practically eliminate additional building. Mr. McCarthy said that is true, except VDOT can’t enforce that requirement on existing lots. Mr. Keller said there would be more meetings with county officials to develop a county plan. Mr. McCarthy said there would be at least one more public hearing before any plan is adopted. At the afternoon session Mr. McCarthy said the county and Cellular One are negotiating with Adelphia Cable Company to use the company’s tower at Chester Gap for communications instead of trying to build another tower. He said studies are being done to determine if this location will provide adequate coverage for the dispatch center. He also reported work at the landfill on constructing a new cell is stopped until there is more dry weather. In the meantime, he said, the current cell is filling-up and the county may have to ship trash to a private landfill outside the county for a period of one or two months unless the new cell is ready before the current one is filled up. In other action the Board of Supervisors: • Decided not to make lists of addresses available to county groups. They can get these lists from the Post Office, Mr. McCarthy said. • Voted to spend $500 on joining other localities in developing a regional brochure to promote tourism.

Forest Service Has Trees The Virginia Department of Forestry recently released its 1994-95 seedling catalog, just in time to meet the varied needs of Rappahannock County landowners. Titled, “Virginia Trees for Virginia’s Forests,” the catalog includes more than 40 species of evergreen and hardwood seedling that have been grown at one of our three State Forestry Centers. At the core of this program are the loblolly pine and white pine seedlings. Most of these trees are grown for the purpose of reforestation of cut-over timberlands. Over 85,000 acres will be planted across the state of Virginia. An equally common reason for large scale planting piojects is the conversion of old, abandoned farmland to timberland. Rappahannock County could be doing much more of this as a large number of these fields exist across the county.

Planting 500 trees to the acre, the cost of trees and planting labor runs about $60 per acre. Cost share assistance is available to offset a substantial portion of this cost. Considering the minimal time, money, and effort involved, it is very beneficial to plant abandoned fields in trees. Trees are a great investment, they will benefit the environment in countless ways and one day will provide some of the many products that we demand as a community. Hardwood plantings are becoming more popular for many reasons; landowners are realizing the greater monetary value of hardwood timber production, still others desire additional benefits to wildlife or to produce brilliant fall colors. Hardwoods are more expensive to establish and will take much longer to mature than pine, but hardwoods give us the ability to plant our forests for a wider variety of objectives. Planting trees provides other benefits. Besides proving food an nesting cover for song birds and other wildlife, trees improve and protect air and water quality, increase aesthetic and property values and can even help reduce energy costs. Convenient order forms are located in the center of the free catalog available from the Department of Forestry. Trees are UPS shipped directly to your home. To obtain the catalog, advice or cost share assistance on planting pine or hardwoods, contact your local Virginia Department of Forestry office in Madison County at 948-5341.

The guarantee on the roof expired last spring. He said he expects to ask for similar amounts over the next several years to replace the roof over the rest of the original building. The guarantee on that roof runs out this spring. The roof over the gym and cafeteria would be a rubber product with sloping insulation under it. A low peaked metal roof would be used over the rest of the building. The school system will be receiving $51,300 from the state for expanding technology. To qualify it must budget at least $7,695 for training staff in the use of technology. Dr. Gangel included that in the salary for a person to help develop a network for the schools and service computers. The budget also includes $26,300 for a grant writer. Dr. Gangel said normally such a person can cover his salaiy in the grants received. This is the year for the census of children that is used by the state to compute how much sales tax money the county gets for education. $5,500 is included for that. Following the detailed presentation of the budget, board members asked about how to justify certain items to people who are contacting them. The budget includes part-time salaries for three aides to ride school buses to help with discipline. Dr. Gangel said parents frequently ask for more supervision on buses. Board members Frances Thornton and John Tole said they had heard complaints about that request. Mrs. Thornton said one caller suggested students who don’t behave on the bus, simply should not be allowed to ride. Dr. Gangel noted that while the schools are not required to provide transportation for regular students who misbehave, they must provide transportation for special education students. Mrs. Thornton said those are not the usual misbehaving students. Board Chairman Beverly Massie asked for a separate listing that would show expenses to maintain and repair technical equipment. “When it is spread out over several categories, we don’t see the cost of maintaining this technological equipment,” she said. She did suggest, however, that collecting that information could wait until after the budget is sent on to the Board of Supervisors. Dr. Tole asked for the justification for hiring a school nurse. Dr. Gangel said that there is more and more medicine that must be given to children. Also people not trained in medicine are forced occasionally to deal with medical emergencies. Mrs. Thornton said most of the need to dispense medicine occurs around lunch time. She said it might be possible to find a nurse part time to handle that chore.

It has hosted over the past decade some 900,000 people at the county’s annual 4th of July Celebration, two annual days of steeplechasing, Friday night polo matches, horse shows and wine festival each summer, providing family oriented fun and generating well over a million dollars a year for community charities and businesses.

Looking out across its beautiful turf fields where today children play weekend soccer, and ponies and horses gallop, it is difficult to imagine the place as the old swampy crayfish bog from which it has been raised. The vision of news executive Arthur W. Arundel, the 500 acre abandoned farm near The Plains was rescued with, support of the community in 1983 from the same commercial development fate then claiming the long time Broadview Farm home of the Virginia Gold Cup in Warrenton. As bulldozers prepared to descend upon Broadview, a small band of steeplechasing enthusiasts and community people mobilized to protect the Great Meadow site in perpetual open space. With an initial $2 million donated by Mr. Arundel, the site was saved from scheduled subdivision for 400 houses. The ecologically rich patch of Piedmont meadow has since been dedicated for charitable use under protection of the new Meadow Outdoors Foundation as Trustee. Great Meadow today is preserved and managed in perpetuity for non-profit year round use of the community. As a result of this ten year commitment to the environment and development of wildlife habitat and preservation of open space, Great Meadow is giving back to the community a classically beautiful natural resource for learning and an appreciation of nature. But the initial vision for Great Meadow has not been forgotten. Since 1985 Great Meadow has been home to two of Fauquier County’s most precious and visually exciting traditions, the classic Virginia Gold Cup each May and its sister race. The international Gold Cup each October. Proceeds from these two events provide most of the Foundation’s annual budget. With support of contributions through events and other supporters, the Foundation has managed great Meadow for a decade without debt or tax cost to Fauquier County. Great Meadow looks forward to a future committed with its events to growing not bigger, but better, as an open space field events center of which generations to come in Fauquier County may be proud. As someone remarked on the 10th anniversary “that old meadow has earned the adjective, it is great for our community.”

/ Community News Obituaries Rappahannock News Country\ Real Estate Classifieds B WEDNESDAY, MARCH 8 , 1995 Cockburn Doubles At Rappahannock Races By BETSY BRANSCOME Rappahannock News Staff Writer Though he was blanked in the opening week of the spring steeplechase season, last year’s leading point-to-point rider, Bay Cockburn, made up for lost time at the March 4 Rappahannock Hunt races, kicking in the late daily double for two winners from three rides, taking both co-featured timber races at Saturday’s event. In his first race appearance in 18 months, owner-trainer Joseph M. Rogers’ Chilean-bred gelding Blue Rocket made his running renaissance at the Thomton Hill Farm to win the Elzy Brown Memorial open timber contest. “He jumped really well today,” Mr. Cockburn said of the gray son of leading ‘chase sire Iram. “He did get tired,” he added as he recounted the 2 1/2 mile trip. “It was his first start in some time.” Though the 11-year-old made a hash of the third to last jump, taking top rails as he chipped in to the fearsome downhill fence, Blue Rocket otherwise leapt efficiently and opened up eight lengths on Rusty’s Wise Guy, Dyson Dryden up. Blue Rocket had broken his timber maiden at this venue in ’91, and, though he tired, seemed again to relish the rolling course. “This is the same exact path of races I took with each of my Virginia Gold Cup winners in the past,” Mr. Rogers said of the Rappahannock start. “All four times, I started them here in the Brown race at Rappahannock, then went in three weeks to the Rokeby Bowl at Piedmont, then three weeks later to the Eustis Cup, then three weeks later to the Gold Cup.” “Blue Rocket is by the same sire as [1991 race winner] Roses and Drums,” noted Mr. Rogers’ wife and assistant Donna. In the absence of Iram’s bestloved son, Topeador, a four-time winner on the Thomton Hill course, the Seven Comers series has seen a great r shake-up in competition, flinging the doors open and offering a fighting chance to all takers. Mr. Cockburn took the opportunity to retire the Ben Venue trophy by booting home wife Chrissy’s aptly-named Hillbilly Beau. When early leader Indonesia, Bill Osier up, made a mistake and came to grief at the ninth, Rob Banner and Body Music inherited the lead. Casanova winner Big Nado loomed a danger landing from the 12th, but he slipped in the roughened, downhill going and popped rider Henry Wood loose. Body Music held on to his dwindling lead courageously, but found the winner and the final climb too much and faded to third, with Fluorite getting up for second. Chrissy Cockburn’s Thanks Henry won the same event in 1993, and her Captain Navarre in 1992, earning the attractive silver bowl permanently through Hillbilly Beau’s victory. It was clear in the horse’s demeanor, however, that jump racing is far down on his list of talents. “I don’t think he jumped one fence well,” exclaimed Mr. Cockburn’s father-in-law Gordon Keyes after the gelding’s surprising, five-length score. “Yeah he did, one or two,” of 14 fences, Mr. Cockburn added with a wistful chuckle. “I wasn't quite sure he’d stay up He’s not the greatest jumper. He does seem to have a fifth leg, though.” A 7-year-old son of Dickens Hill, Hillbilly Beau is a far from fluid jumper with much to learn about consistency. A tribute to his own riding skills, Mr. Cockburn laughed that winning in the horse’s first jumping start was “the worst thing that could have happened. Now we’ll have to run him again.” Though the ladies’ timber race scratched down to three starters, the trio of entrants made up the most evenly matched field of the day. Duke Kahana Moku won the 2 1/2 mile event for owner-rider Beth Newman Patrick Cooney and Thunder won the Durant Hill Race. s*—' Theatre Can Claim Trio By CARL COON Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Our home town has a new home team. The Cristofori Trio, a brand new classical chamber music ensemble, has honored us by being born here. It has just finished making its world debut with two concerts at the Theatre at Washington held on Feb. 19 and March 5. The leader of the group is the veteran concert pianist Martin Berkofsky, a front-rank musician of considerable talent and experience. Opinion His associates, violinist Judith Spokes and cellist Kang Xia, are younger and relatively less well known and experienced, although they have already established solid reputations in and around New York. Berkofsky lives in Fauquier County and Ms. Spokes has family in nearby Marshall, but the main reason for claiming that we are the ensemble’s home base is the group itself says so. Its parent organization. The Cristofori Ensemble, was established last year and is “resident,” to use the technical term, at The Theatre in Washington. The group bravely performed all six of the Mozart piano trios, three at each concert. This is not fare for beginners, but the ensemble played as if they had known the music and played it together for decades. I would judge the performance as virtually flawless in a technical sense, and as for the interpretation, well, the music itself is elegant rather than profound, and that is the way they played it. I hope that eventually the trio will move on to the piano trios of Beethoven and Brahms and let us hear how it interprets those masterpieces. Mr. Berkofsky showed off his considerable pianistic prowess when he improvised the cadenza near the end of the G Major Trio. He had asked us in advance whether we wanted him to do it in Baroque, Classical , or Romantic style, and of course we chose the latter. When he reached that point in the score he abruptly replaced his Mozartean salon style with a series of Lisztian thunderclaps that had this listener at least in stitches. (Afterwards he did it again, going for Baroque this time, as an encore.) It is all very well to listen to canned music all day, in the car and the elevator and while you are waiting on the phone, and then put your CD on in the evening for something that is a bit higher fi. But nothing beats a live performance. You are there, with the performers, and participating with them is an experience that gets you to the heart of the music. There is an added dimension, like when you add salt to your food. Bravo for the new trio, may they illuminate the greatest music for us for decades to come, in person, right here. Rappahannock News Staff Photos/Cindy Mahan Two of the people around Heather Marsh’s tailgate party watched the races w hile others socialized. last year, while Tom’s War doubled for Ready Snodgrass in ‘92 and ‘93. The pair faced an unsurmountable challenge, however, in young Jill Waterman and her Ky. Mint Julep, a sanctioned winner new to her string. Ky. Mint Julep jumped brilliantly, and had the closing speed to put away his rivals by five in the stretch. Ms. Waterman took the Casanova ladies contest with her former hurdle champion Abacus, and enjoys a commanding series lead after two weeks. Leesburg native Arch Kingsley Jr. took a leg up from Johnson City, Tenn. trainer Mike Berryman on High Speed Drill in the maiden, driving home to a comfortable 1 1/2 length triumph at first asking over timber. Also from Leesburg, young Bradley Gable made his personal debut on the mountainous Thornton Hill course, a winning one, as he guided his Roman Tent to victory in the William Lane timber race. In the day's other racing, the unique foxhunter’s Hat drew much discussion as a possible permanent point-to-point fixture. Fresh off winning the fast-time pairs event Sooner, owned by Tim Norman of Castleton won the Jack Bruce Memorial Hound Race. String Quartet Scheduled One of the world’s leading quartets to perform the great classical and early romantic repertoire of period instruments comes to the Theatre in Washington on Saturday, March 18, in the afternoon. The Smithson String Quartet concert is the third in this season’s popular “Smithsonian at Little Washington” series. Works by Mozart, Haydn and de Momigny are on the program which begins at 3:30 p.m. A pre-concert talk begins at 3 p.m. Founded in 1983 by first violinist Jaap Schroder and cellist Kenneth Slowik, the Quartet, which now includes violinists Jorie Garrigue and violist David Cerutti, has toured throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe, and has an impressive discography to its credit. The Quartet is one of the ensembles-in-residenceat the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History. The program includes Haydn’s Quartet in E-flat Major, Op. 64, no. 6, one of .he thirty “celebrated” quartets by this most prolific and ingenious composer, and Mozart's introspective Quartet in D Minor, K421/417b, from the set of six quartets Mozart dedicated to Haydn. Opening the program is Momigny’s Quartet in F Minor, Op. 1, No. 3. Momigi y, well known as a theorist and crii:c, is especially famous for his analyses of Mozart quartets, including the D minor, which may be said to nave shaped his own compositional paths. The juxtaposition of Mozart and Momigny on the program is therefore a highly interesting one, and will be hscussed by Kenneth Siowik in an informal talk beginning one-half hour before the concert. Tickets for the concert at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 18 ere SI3.50 with reservation, $15 at the door. Children’s tickets are half price. Included in the ticket admission is the pre-concert talk at 3 p.m. by Kenneth Siowik. For reservations and information call 675-1253. Saturday morning.

Why? Perhaps it is because most clowns “put on” a happy face. Yet, under the greasepaint, are the tensions...maybe even pain or despair. Many of us present the same image...laughing on the outside while crying on the inside. We fool others, but not ourselves. Where is the spring to our step and the laughter that crinkles the corners of our eyes? Yes, sooner or later, the greasepaint dissolves and we are left alone...or are we? We do not have to be alone. We need only to have faith in God's love as His wisdom works in our lives. In Matthew 27:20, the Lord promises, “I am w ith you always, to the close of the age.” Worship God each Sabbath and depart in peace. "This is the day which the Lord hath made: let us rejoice and be glad in it” (Psalm 118:24).

New Twist on an Old Favorite: The Reuben i By HELEN W. SMITH F.itension Agent, Home Economics Frequently I’ll get calls on buying processed meats such as hams, sausages, curing and smoking, etc. Processed meat may be defined as meat that has been changed by any mechanical, chemical or enzymatic treatment, altering the taste, appearance and often the keeping quality of the product. The National Livestock and Meat Board report that approximately 35 percent of the beef, veal, pork and lamb produced in the U.S. is processed. Most of the meat which is processed (about 75 percent) is pork, and the remainder is beef with a small percentage of lam or mutton. Classifications Of Processed Meat According to USDA processed meat can be classified as sausages, cured whole muscle cuts, or. as restructured meat products. The topic of my nutrition column this week is Cured Whole Muscle Cuts. Whole muscle cuts like ham, corned beef, pastrami and bacon are considered processed meat products because they have been treated with a curing solution, cured, smoked and/or seasoned. These products are more popular in their processed form than as fresh cuts. A ham, for instance, is more in demand in the U.S. than a fresh leg or pork from which a ham is made. Ham — Ham is defined as the hind leg or pork that has been cured and smoked or cured and canned. Ham, one of the more highly valued pork products, can be produced in three styles: bone-in, semi-boneless or boneless. Bone-in hams can contain four leg-bone sections including the aitch bone (a portion of the pelvic arch), the femur, the patella (the knee cap) and the fibula shank and tibia. Semi-boneless hams usually have the aitch and the shank bones removed, although occasionally the shank is left attached. Boneless hams have all the bones removed and most of the external and as much as possible of the inter-muscular, fat trimmed away. The lean meat may be rolled, shaped or formed into a casing. Specialty hams, such as the Smithfield Ham or Prosciutto Ham, are available regionally and by mail order. The Smithfield Ham, produced in Smithfield, Virginia, is dry-cured with salt, sugar and nitrate, then smoked and aged to give it a distinctive flavor and texture. Ham cured elsewhere by this process must be labeled “Smithfield-Style Ham” or “country-style ham. Prosciutto Ham is a dry-cured Italian ham that is highly seasoned with pepper and other spices. In order to be labeled “fully cooked,” hams must be cooked to an internal temperature of 148 degrees F. Although “fully cooked" hams require no additional heating, all hams should be cooked to 130 degrees F to 140 degrees F prior to consumption for optimum payability. Hams labeled “Cook-before-eating” should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F to 170 degrees F before serving. If neither term appears on the label, the ham should be fully cooked before eating. Canned hams are boneless, cured HOME ECONOMICS ham sections that have been placed in metal or plastic containers, vacuumsealed, they fully cooked. A small amount of natural unflavored dry gelatin may be added before sealing to absorb the natural juices as the ham cooks. Canned hams are produced in a variety of sizes and are ready-to-eat. Corned (Cured) Beef — The brisket is the most popular cut of meat used for corned beef, although beef round is also used. Formerly, “coming” referred to the process of preserving beef by sprinkling it with grains (“corns”) of salt. Today, corned beef is cured with a pickle solution consisting of water, salt, sugar, nitrite and spices. Bacon — in the United States, bacon is produced primarily from pork bellies. Beef bacon is made from the boneless beef short plate (an anatomical region similar to that of the belly in pork). Canadian-style become is made from the top loin muscle of pork — usually that from heavier hogs. Both bacon and Canadian bacon are cured and smoked, giving them their unique flavor. Pastrami — Pastrami is made from the brisket, plate or top round muscle of beef. After dry-curing with ^119^ per coupie During the Month of March in Historic Harpers Ferry, WV.

It is then smoked and cooked. Pork Shoulder — The pork shoulder can be divided into two major cuts. Picnic (arm) and Boston (blade). These cuts can be processed using the same techniques employed to prepare ham from the pork leg. Shoulder cuts are usually priced more economically than leg cuts due to the difference in palatability and yield of edible portion. Recipes Using Corned Beef A Reuben sandwich has many variations. Basicly it is made with corned beef, Swiss cheese, and sauerkraut with Thousand Island dressing. It is usually made on pumpernickel or rye or another dark bread and toasted or grilled and served warm. The following three recipes are adaptations of the Reuben sandwich. The Reuben-ata is similar to a cheese strata and came from the Virginia Egg Council. The recipes for reuben appetizers and reuben dip are for those Occasions when you want a snack focd with a Reuben flavor.
