Jan CiatterOuck Fletcher withdraws application By Jason Peck Rappahannock Nows Staff Writer Rappahannock County supervisors expected hours of heated testimony at their public hearing on Monday night, along with a crowd of more than 100 people. But James “Bill* Fletcher’s controversial proposal to house a conference center on his 800-acre farm was actually resolved in fewer than five minutes - at least for now. “I was expecting pretty much a dogfight,* Supervisor Roger Welch (Wakefield District) said. “I was actually expecting it to go until midnight * Standing before a crowd of nearly 135 people, Fletcher announced that he would withdraw the application, after one of his sisters, Louise Fletcher Tayloe, filed a lawsuit to dissolve the George K. Miller, Inc. that owns a portion of the 800-acre property. The corporation is owned by Fletcher and four of his sisters and the lawsuit contends that not all stockholders agreed with and/or were advised of Fletcher’s plans for a conference center. The announcement drew cheers from the crowd, a majority of whom had already stood and identified themselves as Fletcher supporters. “I’m not going to waste the county’s time with a possible lawsuit," Fletcher said simply. Fletcher had withdrawn the application on Friday afternoon, according to County Administrator John McCarthy. The planning commission already gave their approval to the project in January. But the portion under dispute - 157 acres total - had most of the conference center’s parking, a key demand from the planning commission. By removing that parcel, supervisors say the planning commission's approval no longer applied. “If he didn't withdraw it and it went to a hearing, our recommendation would have been to vote it down purely on the basis of not complying with the site plan,” McCarthy said. Afterward, Fletcher denied that losing the parcel had any effect on the overall application. “I’m not sure where the property line is, and I’m not going to file a lawsuit or waste the county’s time tonight,” Fletcher said. The long-time Rappahannock resident has owned the property, George Miller Farm, for close to 30 years. Fletcher alleges that the farm no longer produces enough revenue through farming to cover expenses. Leasing the property and the 8,000-square-foot manor nouse to an events-booking firm would keep it in the family, he said. The planning commission approved his special lease permit to do so in January by a 4-2 vote. That should have sent the measure to county supervisors in February for a final approval. But the planning commission added several restrictions, which Fletcher called too limiting. In March he asked that his hearing before the supervisors be delayed while he looked for “other avenues.” See FLETCHER, Page A3 Sports program benefits from pageant By Terri Diu* y Special to the Rappahannock N»ws Organized to benefit the Rappahannock County School Sports Association, Terri Diley. along with a cadre of supporters, hosted the 2008 Miss Skyline Pageant on April 26.

Sherman Rappahannock News Staff Writer When the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors cast their votes on Monday for the proposed 2008-2009 School Budget, the outcome came as little surprise. It passed by a vote of 4-1. But the amount approved and recommended by County Administrator John McCarthy, $11,813,799, is still shy of what Superintendent of Schools Dr. Bob Chappell and the members of the Rappahannock County School Board requested. Chappell will need to trim the budget by another $250,000. In comments issued later. Chappell plans to bring his Recommendations to the May 13 School Board meeting. I' Before voting, Hampton District Supervisor Bryant Lee held up a stack of letters that the Supervisors had received both pro and con about the proposed school budget expressing his frustration that they couldn’t do everything. The school budget, while the largest chunk from the county’s botketbook, is one item among OUiny that need to be addressed each budget cycle. Another hot item this year is public safety and having an effective communications system that will aid law enforcement and volunteer fire responders alike. McCarthy’s dratl county budget calls for a 1 Rappahannock News PC). Box 59 Washington. Va. 22747 (540) 675-3338 (540) 675-3088 (fax) cent increase in the county's real estate tax rate. If the supervisors approve the budget as drafted, Rappahannock's new real estate tax rate will be 60 cents per $100 of assessed value. The 1-cent increase is intended to pay for the county’s emergency responders to convert to a new 800-megahertz communication system. The price tag budgeted is $885,000 for this year. r See BOARD, Page A3 “Forever Young” Rappahannock County High School held their prom this past Saturday. May 3.

Smith warns that attempts at credit card fraud are always a threat. She urges citizens to be mindful, especially about email scams promising dubious refunds, awards, and prizes. The best thing to do, said the Sheriff, “is to delete any communication you are not certain of, without opening the message." The Sheriff also warns that citizens should shed or bum any credit card offers arriving in the U. S. mail - offers, that is, one does not wish to accept. She notes simply trashing such offers invites thieves to lift infer motion from the pupers and use it to steal one's identity. As for the telephone, people should know not to •reveal any personal infer mation such as social security numbers to any caller who is a stranger.

Fletcher From Page A1 | Affordable housing was one such possibility. Fletcher even placed a trailer on his property, and said that he could put more there as part of his plans to build affordable housing. Under Rappahannock County code, Fletcher could place 14 housing units on 700 acres of property. Opponents argued that a conference center would disturb the peace, threaten historic landmarks and lead to more commercial projects being approved. Supporters argued that a conference center could actually save Fletcher’s property from development, and would have little impact on the neighbors. After the meeting, Fletcher declined to say when he would resubmit his application. He also declined to say whether he would still push for a conference center, but added that he had “other buyright options to make the Board From Pag* A1 V: “I wish it were possible to 'JV- do it all,” said Lee, “we need the 800-megahertz system, *y, but then not a cent tor the v schools.” Piedmont District Supervisor Eddie Wayland shared Lee’s angst. “With the loss in state funds this year, x. it’s not what everyone wants.” “I've been doing this for 11 years and it doesn't get $£any easier,” said Wakefield Sf - District Supervisor Roger Welch who had done his own pe comparisons of teacher J salaries over the years. While * not breaking down ’starting' versus ’tenured’ teacher .^salaries, Welch stated that an .^average teachers in ippahannock were earning 311 in *06 compared with 1,605 now. “I’m prettyproud of Rappahannock,” stated Welch who added that in looking at this year's budg> et there was an amount of $79,000 in debt service that would be taken care of this year. “That’s another $79,000 that we will eventually be able to give to the schools.” Welch commented that he didn’t like to hear comments that the School Board had “to beg” the supervisors for money, “fm only saying what c o »; ntr v F • C • O ’ W * fc * H 6 A at D.I.N ■n • onruun • ntomu Don’t Miss Out!

Frazier was unhappy on several counts. He felt it a misuse of taxpayers money if accounts that he had received were true - that petitions supporting the proposed school budget had been circulated in the schools. Also, why are there more bus drivers when enrollment in the schools is down. And, what s with health insurance costs. Ib Frazier, they appear to be skyrocketing. Chappell commented that while petitions were circulated outside the elementary school on Friday evening, that this was not authorized by school officials. School Board member Aline Johnson said that she would be glad to revisit the schools health insurance rates although they are using the same provider - Blue Cross - that the county uses and the coverage was very good. “Well, maybe we need to change the plan,” was Frazier's comment. The approved school system’s budget of $11,813,799 for fiscal 2009 represents a 2.3 percent decrease from last year's budget of $12, 096,934. As a total percentage of the county's total budget. the school budget is also decreasing. Last year, the school budget accounted for 59.6 percent of total county expenditures. This year, the now approved budget will garner a little more than 53 percent. Also on the agenda Story Project: Lisa Ramey was introduced as the new project director for the Rappahannock Story Project. An innovative undertaking, and one supported by not only the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors, The Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community and Ki Arts, the final product will be a compilation of stories from Rappahannock citizens. Those stories will become an acfjunct part of the county's comprehensive plan and will help craft the county's “vision for the future.” PUBLIC HEARING: PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE ZONING CHAPTER OF THE RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY CODE On Monday, June 2, 2008, at 7:00 pm. the Rappahannock County Board of Supervision shall hold a Public Hearing at the Courthouse in Washington, Virginia, to consider amendments to the Zoning Chapter of the Rappahannock County Code The complete text of the proposed amendments follows: 1.

The estimated cost would be $450,000 over a five-year period. As McCarthy reiterated, “many in the county are screaming for broadband service.” The plan would place transmitters on seven sites and, in all likelihood, if a property owner agreed to the placement of a transmitter pole on their property, it would be in exchange for free service. To get the service started. See BOARD, Page A4 Pageant From Page A1 Also, of interest to the county this pageant brought in $8,400.00 for the Rappahannock County School Sports Association.

But it quickly fizzled. For the moment, Bill withdrew his application and will need to go back to the drawing board to work out a few details. He’ll be back though. Bill needs to find a plan that will not only keep him and his family financially viable for the future but will perhaps be more palatable to county scenic consumers. It’s possible for a partnership to be forged in the future. There’s too much at stake not for everyone involved to make it work. It may be optimistic and a bit on the rose-colored glasses viewpoint but the players involved are powerful enough to put something in place that will please most of the people. Speaking of sustainability, this Saturday marks the beginning of something new - a farmer’s market opening in Sperryville. Deborah Stoker has spearheaded the event. Look for her Saturday morning and consider buying local rather than spending gas to drive elsewhere. Relay for Life is next weekend and all of the various teams are vying for their “top dollar” fund raising efforts. Doug Baumgardner makes a mean cheesecake and one will be up for raffle Saturday morning at the Quickie Mart. If you miss out on the cheesecake, there will be plenty of muffins, brownies, pumpkin rolls and other assorted baked goodies. Stop by for some sweet things and know that the proceeds are going to support the American Cancer Society. Politics is an arena fraught with danger. In all likelihood, there will be little consensus. Local politics can be even worse. After all, these are your neighbors and friends. But, good food, hard to disagree there. No harm intended "X*t is regrettable that a recent Letter to the Editor I appeared to indicate that Kaye and Rick Kohler had ^circulated disparaging comments about another individual. This is not true, the letter they forwarded was the same letter written by neighboring landowners opposing the Miller Farm Special Exception on technical grounds. There was nothing personal involved. The letter was signed by 98 individuals across the county for publication by the Rappahannock News and presentation to the Board of Supervisors. It has been brought to the attention of The Rappahannock News that some individuals felt that the Kohlers were being singled out. That was certainly not the intent of this paper. Letters to the editor The Rappahannock News welcomes Letters to the Editor from its readers as a forum for discussion of local public affairs subjects. WRITE: Letters to the Editor. P.O. Box 59, Washington. Va. 22747 EMAIL: asherman@timespapers.com Letters Creating a solution of sustainability et me first thank all of the people J_Jwho took time out of their busy schedules to come show their support for the proposed venture of renovating the Miller Farm. I greatly appreciate it. I understand politics in all of its forms and, unfortunately, it has not been pretty in this case. I am surprised at the opposition to and misunderstanding about the George Miller application and I’d like to clarify what I propose to do. What I propose is not a large unsightly convention center, as the opponents have mis-characterized and exaggerated, but a tasteful inn in a beautiful rural setting that would accommodate the growing demand for venues for weddings and other similar functions. This would enable us to maintain the Miller Farm as it is now and provide jobs for County residents. Approval of this application would support my family’s need and those of the County in the least disruptive way and, judging from the turnout of supporters at Monday's hearing, the majority of County residents feel that way as well. It was a pleasure for me to see that so many people in the county understand that formers need to adapt and find innovative ways for their forms in order to maintain the County's open spaces. Because of a technicality the application will have to be refiled, anrl I am grateful to the County Administrator, John McCarthy and the County Attorney Peter Luke, for pointing1 this out and for their always professional and supportive conduct. It is our intention to continue to work with the County to create a solution of sustainability for the George Miller Farm. Again I appreciate the support shown for the application and for the protection of Rappahannock County. Bill Fletcher Sperryville Closer to home I write in response to last week’s greener than usual issue, and the insightr 1 editorial “Thinking about our energy needs” urging the much needed change in policy of our Country’s use of energy. Perhaps the writer would be advised to look a little closer to home. If they gave prizes in Virginia for Wasted Energy, I would humbly suggest that “The Town of Little Washington" would win hands down. The blatant daylight use of illumination in downtown Washington, particularly by the Inn, which seems to own most of the town, and the few surrounding businesses is a disgrace! The Health Department can often be seen burning lights all weekend, and the apartments above it are illuminated by a single light bulb which to my knowledge has never been switched off in the four years I have been here. The Farmers Co-op is another HUGE offender and has had this drawn to its attention many times, yet still burns dozens of lights 24/7. Shouldn’t these be the leaders in conservation in our community? Does downtown Washington have to look like tinsel town 24/7 ? A National Conservation Initiative begins with each of us changing the mindless use of energy in our DAILY lives. Robert Alcott Washington Preserve our farmland I When sprawl is looming, it's good to know that there are organizations that work hard to keep our county scenic and open. The Rappahannock County Conservation Alliance is one of those groups. Friday, May 16, the RCCA will again sponsor a dinner in recognition of those who donated conservation easements last year. These easements will forever protect 1000 additional acres in our county from development. The evening will also raise funds for the county’s Farmland Preservation Program, another RCCA effort to protect our rural way of life. This program purchases the development rights from working farmers in exchange for easement protection of the land and is entirely funded by “roll back" taxes (the penalty imposed if , landowners opt out of land use tax* i ation) and private donations. We will be attending the fourth annual Rappahannock Evening View on May 16at Caledonia Farm. We hope that you will join us...it’s always a fun evening. Larry and Kathy Grove and Steve and Lois Kerchner Consider volunteering TT Tashington Volunteer Fire and V V Rescue recently mailed a brochure to the citizens of Washington and our neighbors in the surrounding area, that illustrates the value of volunteers. I have received many favorable comments about the brochure, ftople have noted not only the quantity of information contained but also the “professionaT look of the tri-fold pamphlet I want to emphasize the “Volunteer” aspect of WVF&R and make special note of some of the talent and effort that went into crafting such a high quality product. Ann Spieker and Charles Ray-Crawford •provided the photography. Various members wrote and edited the text. Finally, one of our newer members, Sylvie Rowand did the layout and graphics work. Sylvie also did the graphics for our CD case. Volunteering your time and talents to the Fire and Rescue Department does not mean only fighting fires or answering rescue calls. Sylvie’s superior computer skills have been put to use in more ways than one. You don’t need to don a helmet and man a fire hose or ride an amhnUnoe to be a vahiaMe member of the team. Please consider volunteering at your local Fire Station or Rescue Squad. Eugene Leggett President, WVF&R Volunteers honored On April 22, 2008, Girl Scouts in Rappahannock County honored their adult leaders on Girl Scout Appreciation Day during National Volunteer Week. Our dedicated leaders give of their time on a weekly basis to plan and lead fun, educational Girl Scout troop meetings and field trips. Whether it’s teaching them about health and wellness, taking them on a caving expedition, taking them out to the stables to learn to ride a horse, going to an international fair to experience different cultures, or creating a space rocket out of paper, a film canister and Alka-Seltzer, Girl Scout Leaders have creative minds and caring hearts to share with the girls. They dedicate themselves year-round to helping girls grow into confident, resourceful young women. As a Girl Scout volunteer, I have seen first-hand the positive effect of volunteerism in Rappahannock County and how Girl Scouts and their leaders make a difference in our community every day. For those of you who have a daughter in Girl Scouting, take a moment to think about her leader. Think about how at every meeting the leader is there to help your daughter experience new challenges and gain new skills for the future. Think about the amount of tome the leader devotes to preparing for the meetings while balancing family, work, and other time constraints. Remember your Girl Scout Leader with a note of thanks or a personal phone call or greeting. In Rappahannock County, we would like to recognize and thank the following leaders: Amo Merritt, Greg Merritt, Sally Havstad, Angela Wood, Kathy Thornhill, Robin Maley, Natasha White, Brenda Dennis, Janet Robey, Ruti Ruela, Janet Jenkins and Heather Young. Our volunteers truly make a difference in the lives of girls. I encourage more people to follow in their footsteps by volunteering with the Girl Scouts. Anyone interested in joining the ranks of these incredible leaders, please contact Amo Merritt at 540-987-8431. Girl Scouts of Rappahannock County, where girls grow strong. Kathy Thornhill Sperryville Stop sign is working! After living for 12 years on Main Street at Porter Street, a dream has come true for me. My heartfelt thanks to all those who are responsible for this long awaited miracle. Now I am able to enter traffic from my front parking space with only one try. There have been many times when it took me several attempts to accomplish this dangerous maneuver. Once again my immeasurable gratitude for this fait accompli. From my observation it is truly working! Alice King I Washington ; Board From Page A3 Virginia Broadband, which currently serves 20 counties in Virginia, would need an initial 200 subscribers. To date, at least 125 residents have already expressed interest. The supervisors will vote , on this proposal at their June meeting. Regional Reassessment: By unanimous consensus, the board gave their approval for County Administrator John McCarthy to proceed on the recommendation from the Regional Reassessment Research Committee. That committee, comprised of membership from five localities, was to research the creation of a regional reassessment office that would oversee the real property reassessments of the counties of Page, Warren, Shenandoah, Rappahannock and Clarke. Looking at several options, the committee’s recommendation is that a specific, established firm be hired for all five localities. McCarthy felt that this approach would give the county “better quality" and “better value” and less time and money spent in appeals. At this time, Shenandoah, Rappahannock and Clarke must have reassessments in place for the 2010 tax year. Tune in: County Administrator John McCarthy asked for, and received, approval to draft a letter of support for Verdun Adventure Bound, Inc. of Rixeyville. They have an application before the Federal Communications Commission which would provide the northern Rappahannock River Valley (Rappahannock, Madison, Fauquier, and Culpeper) with a local radio station that would broadcast local news and public affairs. Nothing of this sort exists here. Setting your dial on FM 88.1 could provide you with immediate notification of school closings, local events, discussion of local issues including coverage of board meetings and perhaps most importantly essential information in times of emergency - like the hunt for convicted murderer, Ira Wayne Cloniger, several summers ago. Protected: By a unanimous vote, the supervisors agreed to accept the offer made by Manfred Call to sell to Rappahannock County four development rights for the sum of $200,000. As part of the county’s Farmland Preservation Program, this purchase would protect several acres near Muskrat Haven on U.S. 211 from future development. “This is a critical piece of farmland that deserves protection,” stated Phil Irwin during the public comment portion. Manor Farm owner Monira Rifaat agreed. “This program allows a farmer to stay on his land, they are simply selling their development rights.” Piedmont Environmental Council’s Don Looke expressed his support as well citing roughly 1,200 acres in Clarke County that have been protected under this program. Overall, resident Tom Junk failed to see that these types of programs work in the long run. “The county ends up cherry picking programs, you can make more people mad because one or two benefit." Digital dilemma: If you don’t have digital by February 2009, you could be technologically in trauma. The switch from over-the-air analog TV broadcasts to an all-digital signal will occur across the country next year. If you already own a digital TV or get your signal through cable or satellite, you are safe. But if you are one of the millions that receive your signal via the assistance of rabbitear antenna, you’ll need a digital converter box and possibly a new antenna. As a public service announcement, County Administrator John McCarthy had a word of caution. “Before you buy, try* he cautioned encouraging residents to borrow a converter box to see if it works with your current antenna before just assunung it will. Overthe-air digital signals behave differently from analog signals. Depending on where you are located and the strength of the signal, you may get excellent reception or have images break up when you leave for more popcorn. Check out antenna web.org to find out if your antenna suits the postFebruary frequency. Did you hear shots?: County administrator John McCarthy informed the board that they had received correspondence from the Fauquier County Department of Community Development about a public hearing to be held on Thursday, May 8, in the Warren Green Meeting Room located at 10 Hotel Street in Warrenton starting at 7 p.m. The Marriott Ranch Properties, Inc. wishes to obtain a Category 9 Special Exception and a Category 9 Special Permit in order to operate a hunting preserve to include clay targets and a firing range. The property is located at 5219 Marriott Lane which is in Marshall District in Fauquier County.

HEADWATERS Fostering educational excellence in Rappahannock County Baumgardner to head Starfish Mentoring Program By Amy Silver O’Leary Special to the Rappahannock News Headwaters is delighted to announce that Ann H. Baumgardner has been named to the position of Director of the Starfish Mentoring Program. Baumgardner, a Rappahannock County native who graduated from Rappahannock County High School, has worked as a Clinical Therapist with youth and families in a number of settings and held administrative positions with several prominent local organizations. Baumgardner was the Clinical Administrator for the Grafton School in Berryville, a child and ado lescent psychiatric treatment facility. From 1999 to 2005, she was the Director of Blue Ridge Counseling Services in Warrenton, a regional counseling organization for children and adolescents. Baumgardner, who holds a Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of Missouri, started her career in research and teaching. She was a Professor of Psychology at Virginia Tech; following that, for over ten years, she was a Professor of Psychology at Michigan State University. Asked why she chose the part-time Starfish position, Baumgardner said, “This community means a lot to me. I’ve seen so much change, profound change, in this county since I was a small child. “I think there have been a lot of losses we don’t often recognize—the loss of an older farming community, not as we know it today, but much more rural. I think the youth in this county are affected by that in a lot of ways.” Baumgardner replaces Carol Lucking, who directed the Starfish program for five years and recently made a difficult decision to leave Starfish in favor of a deeper focus on fewer projects. Lucking will expand her work as a home-based counselor in the Culpeper area, and continue her practice as a Life Coach in a new office in Flint Hill. “I’m going to miss the mentoring that I myself received from the extraordinary group of ladies who run Starfish,” said Lucking, referring to the volunteer Executive Committee members who oversee the program. “These are real gogetters who have made incredible changes for the children of this county.” Said Headwaters Executive Director Cole Johnson, “We are saddened to lose Carol, but we are thrilled to have someone with Ann’s incredible background to join the Headwaters team and take on this extremely important program. “There are still children with unmet needs in tins county,” continued Johnson. “Aim’s arrival will coincide with an expansion of the Happy Mother’s Day Mom Precious memories, how they linger, how they ever flood our soul. Yes, these memories truly are precious. Our beautiful mother, Edna Virginia Burke died on Dec. 3, 1992. She had a heart and soul for the Lord Jesus. To know her was to love her. To this day, 16 years late*; we stitt Wiisi? her. But1' we are hdt "*r?thbut hopfe'.” We know that we will see her again someday. In our hearts our memories linger, sweetly, fond and true. There is not a day. Mom, that we do not think of you. Our Mom, who gave us the best of her life, who cherished our secrets, our sorrows, our strife, who Washington Jan Ctattertxjck 675-3338 jclatterbuck® timespapers.com taught us to love. Love really is stronger than death because it comes from God, and it is because of God and his sac* Tifice, that we have hope of life eternal. And then there will be no more goodbyes, because like the old hymn says there will be “no tears in heaven.” Yes, Mother's Day comes and goes. But the memories linger and remain with us forever. We celebrate Mother's Day once a year but we don’t need a special day to show our gratitude to our mothers. If you really want to express your love to your mother, don’t wait too long and don’t hesitate, go to her and give her a hug and tell her how much you love her and thank her for everything she has done for you. Let her know that she is the best person on this whole earth. What we have biice enjoyed, we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes apart of us. The memories we will treasure for a life time. We love you Mom! For all of you mother’s out there. Happy Mother’s Day!

Like Lucking, Baumgardner is impressed with the caliber of the volunteers who manage the Starfish program and mentor the children. “I'm so excited about the people with whom I'm going to be working,” said Baumgardner, who started her new position last week. “This is Ann Baumgardner such a unique community, it's amazing—we have so many really gifted older people here, with so much to offer.” “To me, it's all about maximizing possibilities for kids—about the potential of all the kids in our community. It’s about building future adults for our community, hoping some of these kids will return here to become long-term citizens. '“That’s one of the questions I'll be exploring through my involvement in Starfish: how can we create an environment that isn’t just great for retirees and well-to-do people, but can allow younger people to live and to flourish?” For more information on the Starfish Mentoring Program, including how to become a mentor or enroll a child, you can reach Ann Baumgardner at 987-3322 or starfish@headwatersfdn.org.

School News from Around the County Chappells Comer Vote in on proposed school budget By a vote of 4-1 the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved the appropriation for the RCPS budget for 2008-09 as recommended by County Administrator John McCarthy. Mr. McCarthy had recommended a $250,000 decrease in the $470,709 additional local hinds requested by the School Board for the 2008-2009 school year. Mr. McCarthy proposed an increase of $220,709 in local funding. The “bottom line” approved by the Supervisors is $11,813,799. This figure includes revenues from State, National and local sources and is $283,135 lower than the budget fin* the 2007-08 school year.

Wakefield Country Day School Wakefield's Spring Auction raises funds for scholarship program WCDS’s annual spring auction held last Saturday evening had as its theme. An Evening in Monte Carlo, and by all accounts it was a great success. Over 200 people attended this “sold-out” affair, and the proceeds generated will help underwrite the school’s scholarship program for 2008-2009. As noted by Head of School Kathleen Grove, “From the silent auction, full of bargains large and small, to the dinner and highly entertaining live auction presided over by Doc Mitchell, the night contained something for everyone." Wakefield’s Sean O'Connor (grade 11) greeted guests as they arrived with his beautiful violin music, WCDS parent Tom McGuxngal provided entertainment with his band, GrooveJet, multiple raffles kept everyone’s attention, and the Marriott provided excellent service and cuisine. Many thanks to co-chairs Jennifer Phillippe and Alison Seaborn, along with their talented volunteer committee, who together made the auction not only highly successful but also fun. Earth Day Recognized On Monday, April 28, grades three and four presented their Earth Day Celebration. Preschool, prekindergarten. kindergarten, first grade, and second grade students rotated through Earth Day stations, watching student-made videos, playing recycling games, and painting rocks.

Rollins on a roll By Mei.issa Delcour Special to the Rappahannock Nows The Panthers spent the early afternoon of April 30 traveling to Manassas Park to battle the Cougars. Although team results were disappointing, it was another meet where several Rapp athletes touted admirable individual results. Head Coach bcott Stephens reported, “[The Panther boys] had only four places against a very talented Manassas Park team* For the boys, Daniel Rollins placed high in two events: he took first in the 100 meter dash with his quick 11.3 second time, and he won second in the 200 meter dash with 23.7. Brook Stokes also ran in the 100 meter event and earned a third place win in 12 seconds. Another third place honor went to Zack Wayland for his finish in the 800 meter run. “The girls fared slightly better* during their competitions. Several Lady Panthers placed in the upper rankings, and a few placed well in more than one event. Not only did Jocelyn Smith take home a third place win in the 100 meter dash (14.9), but “she was also a member of the winning 4 X 100 relay.* The other victors in that event were Carly Day, Sally Hutcheson, and Ashley Armor. Armor, like Smith, earned one of the top slots in the 100 meter dash with her second place, 14.8 second finish. The final, double winner was Courtney Yowell who threw both the shot and the discus for two third place awards. Two more Panther girls ended strong in their events. Colleen Daly earned second place (1:19.8) in the 400 meter run, while Marie Scavetti garnered some bragging rights with a second place finish and an admirable time of 19.3 seconds in the 100 meter hurdles. In the midst of team losses, the Rapp Track and Field team produced memorable moments. Coach Mike Williams said that “the highlight of the meet was Daniel Rollins winning the 100 meter and 200 meter in come-from-behind fashion * Coach Stephens echoed the optimism when he said. “Like last week this was a week for personal bests and we are continuing to get better, faster and stronger every week.* The Panther Track and Field Team will host its final home meet on May 7th at 5 p.m. READ YOUR COMMUNITY ONUNE...

Yet most dying individuals would tell you that they would prefer to die in more familiar surroundings. Clearly. Americans are dying without having their wishes met. One way to avert this problem is to draw up a document called an "advance directive.” It is a document that clearly sets forth your w ishes and acts as a guide for others to follow.
