The Goochland Campus of J. Sargeant Reynolds hopes to become a center of county activity, said Reynolds President Gary L. Rhodes last week.

A Wednesday reception marked the opening of an art gallery in the main lobby of the academic

building.“The goal is to turn this campus

into a county hub,” said Rhodes to the 20 or so visitors who turned out for the event.

The Goochland County School Board will have at least two new members.

The guaranteed new mem-bers will be in Districts 4 and 5 where Andrew Meng III and Max Cisne are not running for reelec-tion. In District 4, Beth Hardy and Phil Davis are vying for the seat and in District 5, John Wright is running unopposed. The other three districts each have incum-bents facing challengers trying to sell voters on the idea that it’s time for a change.

On Wednesday, Oct. 19, the Goochland Chamber of Commerce held a forum at Goochland High School. About 75 citizens came to hear the can-didates’ views.

District 1In District 1, incumbent

James Haskell is being challenged by Michael Payne.

“I own a construction busi-ness and even in these hard times, we’ve found ways to get work and make money,” Haskell said. “I know how to manage a budget and will continue to work hard in moving Goochland schools the in the right direction. It’s painful when we have to cut programs due to a lack of funds, but some-times we have to make tough decisions. We need programs like art, drama, dance, bands and athletics.”

Payne, who lives in Goochland County and teaches in Henrico, talked about teacher dedication to their job and the value voca-tional and technical training.

“If you really want to be a teacher you have a feeling inside and money doesn’t matter,” he said. “You are going to give all you can, all the time.

“As for vo-tech classes, I teach them and have seen the difference these courses can make for a stu-dent,” Payne said. “To begin with, students are doing something

they like. They are learning a skill or trade they can use to get a job after graduation. Also, you can show them how skills they learn in vo-tech classes can help in other classes. For example, if they have to use math in their vo-tech class and learn how to use it, their grades in their regular match class usually goes up. Vo-tech classes can prepare students not going to college for their future after graduation.”

District 2District 2 has three candidates

with incumbent Raymond Miller being challenged by Penny Palen and Kevin Hazzard.

“About 90 percent of what we offer students in school is mandated,” Miller said. “We have little room to offer students what they really want. We need to work on students in the middle of the pack. We know what we need for the gifted and special need stu-dents, but it’s the students in the middle we need to work hardest to help.”

Miller also said that he brought experience, dedication and passion to his service on the School Board.

“I’ve been on the school board more years than I care to admit,” Miller said. “I have a dedication and passion to seeing that our children continue to get a quality education. Goochland County schools are among the best in the state, and we need to continue making them better.”

Palen talked about the future.“We need to prepare our stu-

dents for life in the 21st century,” she said. “They are going to have challenges we never had. I’m a parent and I’m running for the school board for all of the chil-dren of Goochland County. We’ve slipped a little in our achievement the last few years and we need to right our ship.

“One thing we need to do is identify more children who are qualified for the gifted program, especially minorities,” Palen

added. “We need to address our achievement gap problems. If a child is having problems with reading or math in elementary school, we need to address the issue then. We need to work with them so that by the time they get to middle school, they are where they should be. We need to let our teachers be creative and think outside the box in finding ways to help our kids.”

Hazzard also focused on the future.

“Preparing students for the 21st century is no longer just teaching them reading, writing and arithmetic,” he said. “I’m a teacher and we need to be teach-ing these students who aren’t going to college skills so they can compete in the job market after they graduate.

“Success in education begins and ends in the classroom,” Hazzard said. ‘We need to attract quality teachers and find ways to get them to stay. The average teacher only teaches for five years or less. They find out that there isn’t much money in teaching and leave.”

As for students, Hazzard said he would like to see the number of slots the county applies for at the Governor’s school increased and class sizes reduced.

District 3Current School Board

Chairman Ivan Mattox is seek-ing reelection in District 3 and is being challenged by John Lumpkins.

Mattox talked about several ways to improve student perfor-mance.

“I’d like to see Algebra I taught and finished by the eighth grade, and then students would be able to concentrate on more advanced math classes,” he said. “I also think it’s necessary for kids to have support from an early age, not only from their parents, but from churches, the NAACP, the Rotary Club, Chamber of Commerce and other mentoring

groups.“In Goochland County, we

raised education to a level we can all be proud of,” Mattox added. “Just ask any real estate agent and they’ll tell you that until the mar-ket crashed, one of the selling points they used when talking to someone thinking about moving to Goochland County was the school system. They talked about it all the time.”

Lumpkin noted the differ-ences between the School Board and Board of Supervisors and how his experience as a lawyer would help.

“I’m a negotiator and I believe I can work to bring the two groups together,” he said. “When the schools need money it’s up to the Board of Supervisors to find it. We need to have the money going right into the classrooms, and I believe if it’s really needed, the Supervisors will find it.

“We need to get kids ready to read before they start kinder-garten so they will be ready to go when they enter. We need to do the right things for our kids and let them find something they really love to do. I think that’s were vo-tech comes in for some of them. We need to offer stu-dents opportunities to develop their skills and abilities whether they are going to college or going to work after graduation.”

District 4Hardy and Davis are oppos-

ing each other in District 4. “I’m running for the school

board for our children,” said Hardy. “I have four children in the Goochland Public School sys-tem and their needs range from being gifted on down. I believe every child is special and we need to provide the best education for every child in Goochland.”

“I believe the School Board needs new leadership that will give it a new and fresh perspec-tive,” Hardy said. “I’m a cre-

host events and meetings.An ad hoc committee began meeting

about nine months ago to ponder how to turn the Goochland Campus into such a facility, said Rhodes.

“We wanted to give our Goochland Campus a hometown community feel, that welcomes our neighbors and the Goochland citizens that surround our campus,” said Reynolds President Dr. Gary L. Rhodes. “There have been a lot of volunteer hours and some wonderful works donated to the College to ensure the paintings and displays properly repre-sent Goochland.”

Wednesday celebrated the opening of the first phase of the project.

Later, another area downstairs will be

converted into an area suitable for wed-dings or receptions and other events, he said.

As part of the effort JSR is hosting a Community Night Nov. 10, said Assistant Dean Charles B. Swaim.

“We’re offering a dozen free short classes for anything from floral design for the holidays to how to winterize your small engines for the winter,” said Swaim.

Community Night visitors will also be able to learn basic Spanish in 40 minutes or learn about small business entrepre-neurship.

The new art gallery was created with the help of donated art from local artists as well as historic photographs from the Goochland Historical Society, including an historic photo of a landing by Charles Lindbergh at a Goochland Farm.

“It’s a formidable testimony to the role

of community colleges in Virginia,” said Mirta M. Martin, member of the State Board of Community Colleges after the reception.

Local artist Robin Caspari, whose painting of wild horses hung just inside the main interest, said she was honored to be asked to exhibit her work.

“I’m hoping these horses here will inspire all the students here and people to come together in the community with fascination, curiosity and freedom,” said Caspari.

Another local artist, Patti Rossner, had her painting of a country intersection in Hadensville transformed into a larger than life piece of art on a brick wall of the stair-case leading to the lower level.

The painting was taken from an 18 by 24 canvas and applied to the brick wall with a heat sensitive vinyl process, she said.

About 150 people turned out last Tuesday evening to hear candidates for the Goochland Board of Supervisors and the Goochland Treasurer’ Office ask for their votes in the Nov. 8 election.

Hosted by the Goochland Chamber of Commerce and moderated by Phil Daniel, host of the EZ 100.5 FM Morning Show, the forum lasted about two hours.

The format gave each candidate an opportunity to make an opening and closing statement, with three questions posed to can-didates who have opposition in the election in between. Only Ken Peterson, unopposed for supervisor in District 5, was thus restricted to an opening and closing statement.

Supervisor candidates were asked to make the case as to why they were more quali-fied than their opponent, to tell the voters what they hoped to accomplish if elected and to explain how Goochland should support existing businesses and attract new ones.

The two candidates for Treasurer were asked for their qualifications for office and for their vision for the next four years.

District 1

Incumbent Andrew Pryor, a dairy farmer, cited his long experience as supervisor as one of the reasons he should re-elected.

“I feel I know the district as well as anyone,” said Pryor, adding he is well acquainted with county department heads, VDOT and other agencies and is able to get things done. Pryor said he would insist that the landowners in the Tuckahoe Creek Service District (TCSD) fund the bond debt. “I have never wavered one iota – they will pay for the bonds,” he said.

His opponent, Susan Lascolette cited her business background and talked about the opportunity to “elect a team. You could not have a clearer choice,” she said. Lascolette asked the audience to think about what gov-ernment could do but also think about what it cannot do.

“The only legitimate role is to protect our

rights,” said Lascolette.Pryor said he was

in favor of top qual-ity schools to attract business, a competitive tax rate and stream-lining the zoning and Conditional Use Permit process.

Lascolette said she favored “stable, consistent, commonsense government,” and keeping taxes and regula-tion low. She also said she would roll back the Board of Supervisor’s pay raise approved by the current board, improve the TCSD debt situation and better the relationship between the supervisors and the School Board.

Pryor said he would work on restructur-ing the TCSD debt and continue to support the school system and public safety.

In their closings, Lascolette called the elec-tion a great opportunity.

“Is this the way you want to be or do you want to have a new team?” she asked.

Pryor said he was proud of his many years of service and said things were better in the county than many thought.

“There’s not as much broke as you think there is,” said Pryor.

District 2

William Quarles, current Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, now in his second term on the board is running against chal-lenger Manuel Alvarez.

“I am the best candidate for the district,” said Quarles in his opening after reading what he termed his “guiding principles,” which included 12 bullet points he sup-ports.

Alvarez, an immi-grant from Cuba, gave a brief bio by way of introduction and recounted how his battles to obtain cable access when he moved to Goochland in 2004 got him interested in the problems of county gov-ernment. He said he has no aspirations for higher office.

Quarles said he would work to improve Broadband access in the next four years.

“I’m 100 percent behind that,” said Quarles. Improving School Board and supervisor communi-cation was also part of his vision.

Quarles pointed out the many training classed he has taken to improve his ability to function in county government.

Alvarez said he hoped to help make Goochland Schools better than neighboring systems like Hanover County’s. Economic development and solving the TCSD debt problem were also on his list.

“At the end of the day I want you to trust me,” said Alvarez.

On business, Quarles agreed the per-mitting process needed to be streamlined. Alvarez said the first step should be to “stop harassing existing businesses,” and to solve the Broadband access problem.

In closing, Quarles returned to his open-ing. “I know I am the best candidate,” he said again. “We’ve had problems – we’re working on solutions.”

Alvarez called the November election “a great opportunity. “For the first time in 40 years all the supervisors are being challenged,” he said. “My opponent has good ideas,” why haven’t they happened?” he asked.

District 3

Incumbent supervisor Ned Creasey said he was responsible for much of the positive change in the coun-ty. “I kept digging – I dug out a lot of it. I had no idea how much there was to do.

“We need to show we are busi-ness friendly,” said Creasey. “It comes back to trust.”

His opponent Alan Tucker said he had no pre-set agenda but would bring openness to the table and would solicit the opinions of the people. Tucker said

Nearly 1,000 people are expected to pack Goochland High School’s auditorium Nov. 5 for a concert by the Richmond Symphony Orchestra. It will be the fifth consecutive year that Goochland Rotary Club Foundation has brought the orchestra to the county.

Proceeds from the event will benefit nonprofit chari-ties that serve the citizens of the county. The philan-thropic effort is reflected in this year’s theme: “A celebra-tion of community service in Goochland County.”

“This performance will enable us to aid a wide range charities in Goochland,” said Larry Frank, chair of the

event. “It’s indicative of our slogan and the very ideals of Rotary – ‘Service Above Self ’.”

The orchestra, under the direction of Steven Smith, will perform selections by Revueltas, Mozart, Sibelius, and Prokofiev. “We’re giv-ing the orchestra more per-formance time than in past years. We’ve even allowed for an intermission,” Frank said.

Tickets purchased in advance cost $20 for adults and $15 for children under 18. There is an extra $5 charge if purchased at the door. Tickets may be bought online at www.goochlandrotary.com or by calling 1-800-838-3006. They are also available from any member of the Rotary Club of Goochland.

Lead sponsors of the 2011 concert are Matt Geary and Cap Tech Ventures, Inc.

The Rotary Club of Goochland is a volunteer service organization, consist-ing of 52 members who meet each Friday over breakfast at Richmond Country Club. The club’s members provide a wide variety of services for the underprivileged citizens of the county, from deliver-ing free firewood to assisting in the construction of homes for Habitat for Humanity. For more information visit: http://www.goochlandrota-ry.com

There are approximately 1.2 million Rotary club mem-bers worldwide belonging to 33,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries.

Rotary brings Richmond Symphony to GHS again By Jim Fields

Supervisor of Transportation for Goochland County Schools Betty Thurston made her first court appearance Monday, Oct. 24 concerning the assault and battery complaint filed against her by one of her bus drivers.

In a matter of a couple of minutes, her attorney John Amos, and General District Court Judge Edward Carpenter set Dec. 5 at 11 a.m. for a trial date.

The charges grew out of an incident Thursday morning, Oct. 13 between Tonya Gilman, a Goochland Public Schools bus driver, and Thurston at the Transportation office where the two had words and then Thurston allegedly grabbed Gilman by the arm. The encounter led to Gilman filing assault and battery charges against Thurston.

When e-mailed a few hours after the court hear-ing and asked if Thurston was still working or on

some type of administra-tive leave, Goochland School Superintendent Linda Underwood responded, “Personnel issue. No com-ment.”

When the Transportation Office was called Oct. 25 to check on Thurston’s status, she answered the phone. Before a conversation could take place, the line went dead, and on an immediate recall, she was then meeting with

Forums end, election nears

Don’t shoot the messenger for providing info

In a recent blogs associated with the Gazette, I have been roundly and soundly criticized for saying some positive things about Dr. Underwood and the School Board, which is fine; but I have also been excoriated simply for providing information that any-one could have obtained by sending a simple email, or making a call. A gentleman called me at home to take issue with one LTE and I must have asked him a dozen times whether he had ever complained to his represen-tative on the School Board. No, he had not!

One vocal blogger made a number

of charges to prove my support for the SB was undeserved.. The prob-lem is that we never see what the SB has to say in response to those charg-es. I believe this is due in large part to procedural mechanisms inherent in the process, and mostly because the place to have conversations with our representatives is in our districts, and not at monthly SB meetings. But it’s also because it’s a challenge to take on the vocal bullies who don’t want any side but theirs to be heard.

I was recently ridiculed in the ‘goochlandfulldisclosure’ blog; a cow-ardly message intended to intimidate those with different views from speak-

Candidates for local office were likely feeling some fatigue, as the last of the scheduled forums took place Sunday, sponsored by the Goochland Education Parents Association (GEPA).

One, who shall remain unnamed, admitted as much. What with door knocking, meet and greets, speaking engagements and usually a full-time job to go along with it all, that should come as no surprise. We’ve always marveled at those who would offer themselves for public service and thought that to do so at the very least shows a willingness to give time and energy to public service that many of the rest of us either don’t have or are unwilling to dedicate.

So regardless of their stances, we praise the candidates for enduring the arduous process of seeking public office and putting themselves on the line.

On the various forums, the last one was different and probably had the best format. While candidates made the expected opening statements and took questions from the moderator, there was also a short session for questions from the audience, which produced the most interest among the 30 or so who came to the Sunday afternoon event, held at the Goochland Recreational Center.

The subject was the issue of the amount of unspent funds returned to the county at the end of each fiscal year. The questions centered on whether or not those funds could have been used during the year to fund personnel and/or programs that were cut.

Directed toward the incumbent School Board members, the questions raised an issue that will certainly live on as the final weeks of the campaign wind down.

LettersNext week will be our last issue before the election and we’d like to

run as many letters from our readers as we can. And although as you may have noticed, we’ve bent our guideline for 400 word letter length pretty regularly along the way, we’d ask our correspondents to adhere to it as much as possible next week.

We know that’s not always easy, having our own penchant for running a bit long sometimes and having to cut articles to fit available space.

But give it a try and we’ll do our best to get a representative sampling of opinion in our last letters to the editor section before this most important local election.

Just a reminder though, that although we strive to publish all letters received, if we run out of space, we’ll run a selection that in our judgment fairly represents the views of those that we have received.

ing up. My response thus far has not been published by the bully who cruelly uses terms like “a cancer that needs to be removed” to refer to a public servant who dedicates her life to educating children.

I followed up on a couple of the charges made against the SB administration and will share what I’ve learned. No opinion from me – just a mes-senger in this case, though I know I will be chastised for simply providing information.

Charge: The Superintendent made “bad choices” in allocat-ing and using scarce resources. Response: Obviously no reduc-tion is popular. The SB used specified and public criteria to make budget decisions. The Superintendent claims that in fact they have listened to the public and changed recom-mendations on various issues. Contrary to charges, they claim to have made reductions in

all budget categories, including “administrative overhead” and support positions.

In response to questions about having “3 high-level personnel” at GHS it is true that there is one more assistant principal (AP) than is required by SOQ and there is no require-ment for the activities director (AD). However I’m told that staffing to SOQ is not realistic if we are to provide the services the community says it wants. In our schools the APs do all the student supervision and discipline, safety, observation, supervision and evaluation of staff including teacher evalu-ations as dictated by state law, evaluation of clerical, custodial and support staff by SB policy; they supervise evening student activities, supervise depart-ment’s curriculum, instruction, assessment, purchases and on and on. The extra AP and the AD were both added due to workload and parent input regarding safety and security concerns.

One more: There was a complaint about having only a “part-time librarian for around 700 high school students.”

First the GHS library media position was vacant from October 2010 through the end of the year (prior employee took leave, then resigned) and the library functioned adequately to meet students’ and teach-ers’ needs, so they chose not to fill that position in order to make necessary budget reduc-tions for the 2011-2012 term, thus “saving” reductions some-where else. The 2011 Acts of Assembly (Appropriation Act) gave school divisions flexibil-ity in a number of SOQ areas, recognizing the funding issues faced by all school divisions. Increases in student-teacher ratios, class sizes, use of tar-geted funds, and among many other things, leeway was given in the “librarians and guidance counselor staffing ratios...” Dr. Underwood made it clear that a big part of her job was ensur-ing compliance with laws and

regulations that often tie the hands of the administration.

While the SB needs to do a much better job of com-municating the reasons for their decisions to the public, those private individuals who attempt to provide informa-tion should not have to put up with ridicule from bullies who want to stifle any view but their own.

Writer grades the candidates

The evening event on October 18 at Goochland High School was billed as a “candi-date’s forum” but could bet-ter be described as the “Great Goochland Debate of 2011.”

All candidates for the Goochland Board of Supervisors had opportunities to express their views and dif-ferences with their opponents. There were time limits, yellow

and red lights, and a very good moderator to control time lim-its. It certainly seemed like a debate to me and a very good one thanks to the Goochland Chamber of Commerce.

My opinions on the qual-ity of the candidates’ answers to the same three questions from the moderator are shown in the matrix below to save space, “P” for pass and “F” for failure. My ratings are based on the clarity and intelligence of the candidates’ answers and were substantiated by audience applause.

Pryor – F F P Lascolette –P P P Quarles - F F F Alvarez - P P P Tucker –F F F Creasey - F F F Minnick - P P P Butler - F F F

Ken Peterson is running unopposed in District 5 and was not asked the three ques-tions. However, audience reac-

tion to Mr. Peterson’s opening and closing remarks was very favorable and I heard some folks saying “he should be on TV.” It seems District 5 is very fortunate this time around.

During my 33 years in the Army I wrote many Officer and Enlisted Efficiency Reports and always kept a copy of an 1813 Army Efficiency Report as an example of how to pre-pare evaluations with accuracy, precision, and candor.

So my opinions of the can-didates’ debate performance in the style of an 1813 Army effi-ciency report follows:

Andrew Pryor, Rudy Butler: Uninspiring good-old-boys, poor communicators with limited potential.

Susan Lascolette: Sharp intellect, aggressive, should be promoted.

William Quarles: A gentle-man with smooth style but little substance.

Manuel Alvarez: Promoted

immediately.A general theme expressed

by all incumbent Supervisors was that Goochland County is not as bad off as many voters may think and that incumbent Supervisors have done a good job to keep Goochland on the road to success.

The audience did not seem to agree with that assessment and I anticipate a complete turnover of the Goochland Board of Supervisors.

I have lived in Goochland

County for 34 years and believe our new Goochland County Board of Supervisors should consist of Susan Lascolette, Manuel Alvarez, Ned Creasey, Bob Minnick and Ken Peterson.

Butler’s contacts invaluable

I’m privileged to have lived in Goochland for more than 70 years. Goochland’s school sys-tem served me well without the benefits of an MBA or PHD. I’m not a high profile individ-ual. However, I do believe my way of thinking reflects that of many other less vocal residents I’ve talked with. We’ve seen and been affected by the many changes shaped by both “prog-ress”, and the floods of the “more recent” residents. We’ve cringed at the infamy we’ve endured over the past sev-eral years, such as ineptitude,

greed and outright thievery has smeared our reputation.

What happened? In the Gazette some attribute all blame to our supervisors sug-gesting, “Vote them all out”. I say evaluate individuals. Yes, today we do need leaders with moral courage, integrity and wisdom. Extensive experi-ence and a strong appreciation of Goochland’s heritage is a major plus. Retaining a degree of continuity with the past will facilitate transitioning to the future.

Rudy Butler has faithfully served the county and District 4 for a number of years. His extensive knowledge of the county and how it interre-lates to the region are vital. Goochland interests were forefront in the many regional positions he has held. Personal contacts at the regional level are invaluable. Despite what a few vocal critics would have you believe, his reputa-tion remains untarnished. I haven’t agreed with every vote

he’s made but realize he rep-resents a diversity of interests. Rudy always demonstrates a willingness to thoroughly consider issues before making final decisions. This, coupled with his reputation, integrity and record clearly indicates we need to re-elect Rudy.

From an early age I was taught and encouraged to look for the good in others and to present myself accord-ingly. My Goochland school teachers reinforced this atti-tude. I offer that advice to Rudy’s opponent. Judging from his recent mailing con-taining half-truths, innuendos and character assassination, I am left feeling most uncom-fortable.

One recent letter writer proudly characterized his approach as being “aggres-sive”. While I am grateful for his distinguished military ser-vice and believe he may have ideas worthy of consideration, I don’t want to be represented by this aggressively negative

mindset. If he truly desires to “make a difference” I sug-gest he get to know us better and adopt a positive, more informed less condescending methodology.

Minnick will provide intelligent leadership

People in District 4 are proud to live in Goochland County, yet we recognize that this County has problems. We see a need for economic development, to help pay for services, yet we are wary of being sold out for develop-ment inappropriate to our community’s character and quality. We are proud of this Goochland, yet we have been embarrassed by fraud in County government and seri-ous mistakes made by elected leaders that have cost us mil-lions of dollars.

Preserving what we have, providing honest government and a sound economic devel-opment strategy requires a person of intelligence, energy and integrity. On November 8, I am voting for Bob Minnick to represent District 4 on the Goochland County Board of Supervisors because Bob is such a person.

Bob Minnick knows that appropriate economic devel-opment for the County will support schools and public safety. Bob will be sensi-tive to needs of Goochland businesses and Goochland residents. He opposes useless state mandates such as the UDA requirement.

Bob Minnick is a leader who opposes tax increases. As a businessman, he knows the value of a buck and will pour through every detail of the County budget to make sure our tax dollars are spent wise-ly. And, he will start with the

Move forward with Creasey in District 3

I am writing to encour-age the voters in District 3 to elect Ned Creasey as Supervisor on November 8th. His work on behalf of the cit-izens of Goochland County has been quite remarkable. His presence on the Board of Supervisors over the last few years has been a catalyst for positive change. Please keep Goochland moving in the right direction - remember to vote on November 8th and elect Creasey!

Kelly JonesRichmond

Supports Pryor but not Haskell in District 1

In the time of elections Susan and I have voted for whomever we felt was going to be the best representative for our views and or needs , regardless of political affili-ation.

Sometimes we disagreed

and voted differently. We are still happily married. I attended the Chamber of Commerce sponsored forum for the School Board candi-dates. I was impressed by the sheer number of candidates and the fact that it speaks volumes as to the dissatisfac-tion of the citizens. Though to listen to the incumbents all one had to do was rely upon is the fact that they helped make the school system what it is today, I give them credit for that accomplishment.

In the several decades that we’ve been living in District 1, I just recently received my first communication( phone call) from my School Board representative , which I returned. More than sev-eral decades and one call a few weeks before the elec-tion! It is not as if I have been silent concerning some of the issues that are pressing in the county regarding the School Board. One phone message in decades is not a confidence building exercise in represen-tative government.

My District 1 Supervisor has kept in contact with us and over the years has pro-

vided real support when we were fighting a major power-line intrusion (which BTW provided no benefit to the county or the State and would have further eroded our tax base).

When all but one neigh-bor thought that it was a los-ing proposition to fight BIG Utility, Mr. Pryor ,stepped forward with material sup-port. Over the years , we’ve had conversations about things going on in our dis-trict and he has helped imple-ment many of them (e.g. convenience center). When he asked me to serve on the BZA, I immediately agreed. He has voiced opposition to using the TCSD issue to spread the financial risk to districts that in no way will benefit from such an adven-ture. In general I think that a representative should serve the people as long as they do so in a real representative manner, term limits serve a purpose to help replace those that fail in their primary task. I have always tried to base my decisions for elected office on who really has an interest in representing the voter.

One phone message in a generation just doesn’t cut it.

Couple that with her empathy and compas-sion and Goochland County has the perfect blend of qualities to advance our schools and therefore our county.

Contributed Report

Applications for Fuel Assistance from the Virginia Department of Social Services’ (VDSS) Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) are being accepted now through Monday, Nov. 14. Families and individu-als must apply at their local department of social services.

“We know that many Virginians are strug-gling to make ends meet and will need help staying warm this winter – especially seniors, the disabled and low-income families with children,” said VDSS Commissioner Martin D. Brown. “LIHEAP is a federally funded program intended to supplement a portion of the expenses associated with annual heat-ing and cooling costs. ”

To qualify for Fuel Assistance, a one-per-son household’s maximum gross monthly income cannot exceed $1,180. For a house-hold of four, the maximum gross monthly income level is $2,422.

The Fuel Assistance Program assists with various types of energy sources, including electricity, natural and liquid propane gas, oil, kerosene, coal and wood. VDSS’ Energy Assistance Program is funded by the fed-eral LIHEAP block grant. LIHEAP provides monies to states to assist low-income house-holds in meeting their home energy needs.

Last year, nearly 145,000 households received assistance. For more information on the Energy Assistance Program, a pre-screening tool and application, visit http://www.dss.virginia.gov/benefit/ea/index.cgi.

Deadline to apply for fuel assistance is Nov. 14Contributed Report

The Center for Rural Culture (CRC) is pleased to announce the first in a yearlong series of programs highlighting topics that directly relate to the rural aspects of living in the great-er Goochland/Powhatan area. The first two programs in the Homestead Series will be “Deer processing Made Simple”.

The CRC will host these two workshops in early November just prior to the beginning of the regu-

lar hunting season. “Deer Processing Made Simple” will discuss and demon-strate the proper techniques and tools for breaking down a deer in order to maximize the amount of steaks, chops, and roasts obtainable from the hunters’ harvest. Additionally, participants will also learn how to properly and safely handle and package their meat for best storage.

Because space is limited in these programs the CRC is offering them twice to accom-modate as many folks as pos-sible. The first will be held

on Thursday, November 10th from 7:00 – 9:00 pm and then again November 12th from 3:30-5:30. Both workshops will be held at Nadolski’s Butcher Shop located in the Goochland Courthouse at 2913 River Road West and all processed meat will be donated to the Goochland Food Pantry.

The cost for this informa-tive workshop is $25 and par-ticipants must register online at http://deerprocessing.eventbrite.com. For more information, please contact the CRC at 804-332-3144

the root cause of the county’s problems was the tax base and he would work to increase it by working with the econom-ic development plan. Tucker said the county needed a via-ble economic development plan and a streamlined busi-ness application process.

“I’m committed to finding solutions,” said Tucker.

Creasey asked the crowd to think back and imagine what might have happened had he not been elected in 2007.

“Would you be here today?” he asked.

District 4

Incumbent Rudy Butler said “I trust the citizens of District 4 to elect me back. Come out and vote for some-one with experience.”

He said he favored fix-ing the TCSD problem by refinancing the debt and eco-nomic development and a possible bridge loan.

Challenger Bob Minnick said his vision was for the county to fulfill its core responsibilities and create

a “user friendly approach to encourage appropriate growth in District 4.

Butler said his vision was to maintain a rural atmo-sphere while developing the TCSD and creating jobs while cooperating more with J. Sargeant Reynolds for voca-tional training.

Minnick said he was the best candidate based on his business experience and his career history in the U.S. Army.

“My business background gives me the best ideas on how to generate economic development,” he said.

Butler stressed his many years in Goochland, both on the Board of Supervisors and on many regional boards and commissions, calling himself, “The voice of experience.”

“ I have a record of bring-ing business here,” he said, citing Capital One and Car Max, now headquartered in West Creek Business Park.

“I’ve been there and I know what to do,” said Butler, while also advocating stream-lining regulations to speed up business growth.

Minick said the board needed someone like himself who had created a business

during difficult times and likewise championed improv-ing the zoning process.

“We must show we can fix the VRA debt and keep the ad valorem property tax low,” said Minnick.

District 5

Peterson, running unopposed and confined to an opening statement, stressed his expe-rience as a chartered financial analyst and likened the elec-tion to assembling a team to guide the county forward.

“The best teams have complimentary skills,” he said, promising to put his to work for the county.

Goochland County Treasurer

The November election offers two candidates for the job vacated by the resignation of former treasurer Brenda Grubbs, who is awaiting sen-tencing after pleading guilty to embezzling county funds.

Interim Treasurer Pamela Johnson, appointed by the Circuit Court in March, told the crowd she was picked from 30 applicants for the job and listed her experience in

government accounting with the U.S. Marshall’s Service and her experience and train-ing she has received while working as Interim Treasurer.

Tana Marie Hogue listed her work for her husband and managing a cleaners. She said

she wanted to change how checks are written and would encourage citizens to make voluntary extra payment to the county.

Johnson also drew the audience’s attention to what she called the “rigid back-

ground checks” she was sub-ject to while working for the Marshall’s Service and the Drug Enforcement Agency.

Hogue described herself as “hardworking, honest and impartial with an eye for detail.”

notch citizen who’s not only up for but very excited about representing District 4 on our School Board.

I’ve known Beth Hardy for over 10 years as both a professional communica-tor and a friend. In fact, we moved to Goochland after receiving validation from her that the schools were real-ly great. I watch her chil-dren continue to meet suc-cess in the county schools. With Beth’s influence, Goochland can provide a bright opportunity for all its children now and in the future.

Beth is a dedicated par-ent and advocate for public schools. Her endorsement greatly influenced our deci-sion to move here and to con-tinue to believe in the educa-tion provided by Goochland County. I believe she has the fortitude, integrity and cre-

ative-thinking that we need on our School Board.

Beth Hardy is a commit-ted advocate for public school education in both word and deed. I urge you to vote for her on November 8, to sup-port a positive change for Goochland County schools.

Hazzard for School Board in District 5

Goochland voters this year, for the most part, have more choices than ever. Save District 5, where both the Board of Supervisors and School Board (SB) candidates run unopposed, we have two choices for both boards with the exception of District 2 School Board where Kevin Hazzard and Penny Palen seek to unseat Miller, who has, in his own words, “served 30 plus” years, and goes on to

publicly state – “I’m running for reelection because I’m not finished. There is still work to be done.”

I agree, there is much work to be done, and after more than 30 years, we need fresh perspectives prodding Goochland County Public Schools (GCPS) back to their previous proud path. Quite frankly, I thank Miller for his years of service, and look elsewhere for a solution.

While I count Penny Palen as a friend, I do not think she is “ready for prime time.” No one can argue with Penny’s pas-sion and courage, but I don’t see where she brings real world man-agement experience to leverage in a leadership role. Her Goochland Education Parents Association (GEPA) efforts are admirable, but again, from GEPA to the GCPS SB is a quantum leap.

Not such a leap for Candidate Hazzard. Kevin is a technolo-gist, author, professor and proj-ect manager. He has success-fully managed global projects

with larger budgets and more employees than GCPS. Not only does he have vision, but he has already proposed concrete solu-tions, among them - Low-Cost Internet for Students, Zero-Based Budgeting and Grant Writing, for the problems GCPS currently faces.

Kevin Hazzard lives the solu-tion and deserves District 2’s voters nod at the polls.

Problem in Food Lion Parking lot

It was my understand-ing that a striped area in a

parking lot indicated a fire lane/restricted area and it was illegal to park there. For the longest time, over and over again I have seen many people parking in those areas in the Food Lion parking lot (handicap or not) with no repercussions.

Why do the Goochland police not ticket people in those spaces?

It would be a terrible occurrence if those areas were needed by emergency response and people lives were put at risk because someone was too lazy to walk an additional few steps from parking in legal, marked spaces.

Am I wrong are these ver-

tical lined areas not illegal to park in? If they are as I believe why are these people not get-ting ticketed? It would be an impactful lesson to those parked there and a great rev-enue generator for Goochland based on the amount of peo-ple I have seen parked in those areas. I was at the market this morning, Wednesday at 11am, during a slow traffic time and there was 5 cars parked in these striped areas.

I am also trying to under-stand if I am wrong and if legal should I also park there if available.

Ken Peterson, running unop-posed for supervisor in District 5 was not present, as was School Board candidate John Wright.

District 3 incumbent Ned Creasey was also not in atten-dance, citing a previous com-mitment but sent a letter that sparked the most interesting part of the forum.

That occurred when modera-tor Dementi opened the floor for questions from the audience.

Grace Butler, wife of incumbent District 4 Board of Supervisor candidate Rudy Butler, asked each School Board incumbent to justify the fig-ures Creasey released in his let-ter of unspent sums returned to County Administration at the end of fiscal years 2009, 2010 and 2011. For 2011 the unofficial fig-ure quoted by Creasey in his letter was just over $1 million.

“I am appalled that librar-ies are closed,” said Grace Butler. “How do you justify that?” she asked each incumbent.

District 5 School Board mem-ber James Haskell said the figures had just been released, saying he was not sure of the numbers. Haskell also said that with the computers in the classroom, stu-dents could access much of the information they needed from there.

School Board Chairman

called the unspent funds “A con-cern we have to address,” but when pressed by Jane Christie as to how this could occur, said that the School Board took a conser-vative approach and character-ized the fact that Schools spent less was “a good deed for the citizens.”

Earlier in the questions from the audience period, Patti Rosier asked each incum-bent School Board member to name their most important unmet goal.

Haskell answered that com-munication between the super-

visors and the School Board needed to be improved.

Incumbent Raymond Miller, District 2, said the failure to build a new bus garage was his greatest disappointment.

“We need to do something about that,” he said.

Mattox mentioned increas-ing rigor in teaching math and science. He advocated teaching Algebra 1 in the eighth grade.

Jo D. Hoskins raised the ques-tion of how the Local Composite Index is calculated, which deter-mines the amount of money the county receives for the school sys-

tem from the state.This elicited responses from

several supervisors and their challengers, with most agreeing that effort should be made at the General Assembly to change the way the LCI is calculated to bring more money to the county.

But District 1 challenger for supervisor Susan Lascolette raised a warning signal.

“What is a blessing can also be a curse,” she warned, citing the strings attached to money from the state.

“Let’s look at money from other resources,” she said.

ative thinker and will be look-ing for ways to move our schools forward. We need to impress on our kids when they enter elementary school the value of a good educa-tion. WE don’t want to teach them to accept mediocrity. We want to teach them to be all they can be.”

Davis talked about the changes coming.

“We’re at a turning point.

Never before have there been so many candidates for the School Board and Board of Supervisors,” he said. “The incumbents have tried, but the people are tired of expect-ing them to get things right and being disappointed. They are hurting our county and hurting our schools.

“I believe the School Board needs to be more transparent and more accountable,” Davis said. “I think we need for meetings to be more open and when someone comes and wants to know where

money came from for a pro-gram or how it was spent, they deserve an answer. We have to earn and restore the trust of the community.”

Wright, since he is run-ning unopposed, made an opening and closing state-ment but didn’t take part in the question and answer seg-ment of the program.

“I have an anagram that I’ll share with you and it is the word ACT,” he said. “The A stands for accountability and I’ll be fully accountable to the students first, and then

their parents, the county gov-ernment and the citizens of the county.

“The C is for communica-tions and I will always be ready to talk to anyone, whether they are in my district or not. In addition to school board meetings, I’d like to hold neighborhood meetings to keep people informed,” Wright added. “The T is for trust. I want to build trust between the School Board, Board of Supervisors and the citizens of Goochland County.”

In a telephone conversa-tion with Gilman Oct. 25, she said nothing had changed at the Transportation Office.

“She [Thurston] is still working,” Gilman continued. “I’ve had several people sug-gest, imply that I stay away from the office. If they have any internal mail for me, it’s put on my bus seat, and I find it when I come to make my afternoon run.”

After the incident, Gilman was required to turn in a

Randolph-Henry falls 59-12 in final tune-up

The Goochland High School football team added one more notch in their string of eight straight victories with a 59-12 drubbing of visiting Randolph-Henry on Friday night. Yet, the victory also sig-naled that the preliminaries are over and now the fight for the 2011 James River District foot-ball title really begins.

The Bulldogs haven’t been seriously tested since early in the season and most of the wins can kindly be described as lop-sided. Through eight games Goochland has out-scored their opponents 377-91. The only contest that could be considered close was a 25-20 win at Monticello, the most points the Bulldogs have given up in a single game all season.

That all changes this week as Goochland hits the road for a district match-up at 6-1 Buckingham; a team picked to contend for the title. The Knights have only one loss and it came at the hands of league leading and undefeat-ed Amelia. Likewise Amelia looms on Goochland’s sched-

ule the following week for the final regular season game of 2011.

“Starting now, they’re for all the marbles,” Goochland coach Joe Fowler said. “Hopefully, we got better these last two games, because we’ll need it in the next two weeks.”

Goochland used the game against Randolph-Henry as a final tune-up to showcase a variety of offensive and defen-

sive stars. The Bulldogs wasted no time starting the barrage.

Jake Martin found the end zone on a 20-yard sweep to open the scoring. The Bulldogs followed with back-to-back 42-yard touchdown runs from Patrick Clore and Mitchell Brice. Clore’s TD was set up by a blocked punt at the hands of Brice.

At the end of the first quar-ter, the Bulldogs led 21-0.

Touchdown passes to Brent Alvis and Brice, a 27-yard field goal by Colby Cooke and a one-yard run by Nathan Mattox gave the Bulldogs a 45-0 lead at the half.

Led by Jess McLaughlin and Mason Engel, the Goochland defense shut down the Statesman. Engel had an inter-ception and a 77-yard kickoff return for the evening.

Engel saw nothing but day-

light after picking up a short kickoff by the Statesmen in the third quarter. “Everything flowed to the right and it just opened up for me,” he said. “Mitchell Brice made a great block on the kicker and opened it up for the touchdown.”

Quarterback Cody Johnson finished the evening with six completions in 14 attempts for 123 yards and two TD’s.

“Cody is a heady kid with a good arm who is confident in what he does, and he’s got some good receivers to throw to, but it all starts with the offensive line,” Fowler said.

“I thought we came out explosive in the first half and we were razor sharp offensively. The defense gave up a couple of long gains, but we buckled down and got better.”

As happy as he has been with the season so far, Fowler feels the next two weeks will determine if all the hard work and preparation has paid off.

“We’ve been focusing all year just to get ready for this,” he said. “We knew coming in who the big boys on the block were. Buckingham is a great team. In the last three seasons, they’re 28-

1 in the regular season. We need to play a great game against a great football team in order for us to be successful.”

According to the coach, the emphasis this week will remain on the basics. “We need to tackle better and block better on offense,” he said.

So far, the Bulldogs’ plan for home field advantage dur-ing the post season is on track, but Fowler knows the next two weeks could change everything. “We’re right where we want to be and we put ourselves in the position we want to be in,” he said. “Hopefully, we can con-tinue to play well.”

Pomfrey’s latest book details Richmond’s football history

Mentioning Richmond football teams with names such as Arrows, Saints, Mustangs, Rebels and Roadrunners might leave most people scratching their heads but they are part of a rich gridiron tradition in Central Virginia. As such, they provide the foundation for sports memorabilia collector turned author Ron Pomfrey’s latest book. The long time Hanover County resident has followed up his popular 2008 release, “Baseball in Richmond: Images of baseball” with a gridiron cousin “Football in Richmond: Photographic Memories of the Old Days”.

“I done the one on baseball three years ago and got a lot of response and it went over better than I ever expected,” Pomfrey said. “So a lot of the people that I’ve talked with and who have talked with me have asked me about doing one (on football).”

“Football in Richmond” is a fun and nostalgic look into the

Book highlights gridiron founding fathersgridiron past. Through short bios, copies of antique game programs and photographs, many of which came from his own collec-tion, Pomfrey takes the reader back into the early days of football in the Richmond area up through the 1970s.

Two years in the making, Pomfrey felt the most difficult task in creating the book was deciding what he did not have room to include. “Even though I have over 200 photos in here, there’s so many more that I could have added,” he said. “I could have had ump-teen more but you have to draw the line somewhere and that’s what I did.”

Pomfrey kicks off each chapter with a synopsis poem to detail what lies ahead.

The book begins with a look at the Richmond Arrows Club team that spanned the 1920s through the 1940s. With names such as Mush De Lotto and Tom

“Potsy” Jones, the Arrow set the tone for future generations of Richmond football fans.

W h i l e d o i n g research for the book, Pomfrey was most sur-prised by professional f o o t b a l l ’ s presence in Richmond.

From the late 30’s to the mid ‘60s R i c h m o n d became a

regular stop on the NFL exhi-bition circuit and Pomfrey highlights some of the biggest games. From the likes of Arrow taking on the Washington Redskins in 1937 to visits from the Pittsburgh Pirates (Steelers) to the 1964 exhibition between the defending NFL champion Chicago Bears with player Mike Ditka and the Redskins at City Stadium.

“Of most interest to me was probably the NFLers that came to town,” Pomfrey said. “Just researching all that informa-tion from 1937 and 38 when

the Washington Redskins came to town to play. The fact that George Preston Marshall grad-uated from Randolph-Macon College here in Ashland. The fact that Cliff Battles, in ‘37 came to play in the middle of the season.”

Pomfrey presents programs from the big games such as the Tobacco Bowl and the Smoke Bowl. Of particular interest is a 1949 photo of singer Frank Sinatra acting as holder for Tobacco Bowl Queen Dorothy Kristen.

Pomfrey moves on to the college game, highlighting some of the top teams and players from 1899-1970s at the University of Richmond and Virginia Union.

The chapter Field of Legends is packed with photos and bios from the likes of Willie Lainer and Ken Willard. Once again, Pomfrey found it harder decid-ing who to leave out than who to include. “There’s so many that could have been included there but again you have to draw the line,” he said.

The book also touches on the high school game of foot-ball and is a true indication of how things have changed.

BY CHARLIE [email protected]

The Goochland girls cross country teams enter this week’s James River District champion-ships with high expectations. Chances are they won’t disap-point because the girls’ team remains undefeated with a record of 17-0 and the boys are 14-3.

Coach Henry Jones has been pleasantly pleased with the teams’ performances and what could have been a rebuild-ing year has turned out much better than expected.

“It was somewhat of a rebuilding year, but a lot of new talent has really stepped up to the plate and performed exceptionally,” Jones said. “We have a really young team, both boys and girls--especially girls--and they’ve had to really push themselves for the competition we are aiming for in the next couple of years.”

On the boys’ side, Marcus Houston, Harry Talmage and Caleb Doody have been the top performers. “Nicknamed last year as “The Rocket,” Marcus Houston has led the way for the boys, nearly always coming in first for us as he strives to beat the 18 minute mark every meet,” Jones said.

As team captain, Talmage,

Cross Country teams enter JRD tourney with high hopesa junior, “displays charisma on and off the course, and battles for the number two spot with Caleb Doody, who recently has shown more of his tenac-ity, being a strong hill runner,” Jones said.

The girls are relying on twin sisters Madison and Morgan Venhuizen, Sydney Pence and Amberly Marria. While Madison continues to improve after an IT (iliotibial) band injury, the remainder of the team continues to pick up the slack.

“Recently, she’s (Madison) been improving her times and finishing first, showing prom-

ise as we head into the district meet,” Jones said. “While she was hurt, Sydney Pence, a first year runner who gave up vol-leyball, took the mantle as our number one runner and led our girls strongly.”

The coach feels it is a potent combination that gets better with each meet. “These three runners have a lot of potential and will push each other every step of the way,” Jones said.

Newcomers Jalen Gregory and Hannah Lumpkins are also making strides on the girl’s var-sity side.

In their return to the James River District, Jones said both

teams are eying post-season competition with a realistic approach.

“We are looking to win the district titles for both boys and girls,” the coach said. “Girls should easily win it and the boys should as well, but I know Nottoway is not going to let us take it that easily. But we’re also not going to give it up either.”

Jones said the re-entry in the JRD has its advantages and very little of a down side.

“The positive is that we have a better shot at reaching region-al level competition and pos-sibly state level,” he said. “The negative isn’t there because I

BY JIM RIDOLPHISpecial Correspondent

see the James River District gaining strides in the level of competition at each school.”

Goochland cross-country continues to attract more ath-letes each year and the coach said that’s a good indicator for the future.

“Our sport has nearly tri-pled since I started as assistant coach back in 2003,” Jones said. “We have a roster of nearly 50 members this year, with 14 middle school boys.”

Jones attributes the increase in popularity to several fac-tors. “Many kids have joined for various reasons--fitness, the competition, weight control--

and as a result a greater pool of talent has emerged, which is making us more competitive. Having coaches that run too makes it exciting and the kids enjoy it when we race. “

Jones is expecting great things from his teams which have exceeded all expectations so far this year. With this sea-son’s results, it’s hard to argue with his vision.

“Our eyes are set on region-als, preparing for teams like Nelson and seeing if we have a shot at possibly upsetting the results of the Region B meet and placing in the top four teams.”

Goochland freshman Madison Venhuizen is one of the young leaders for the Bulldogs.

Pomfrey highlights high school play from the day when John Marshall, Thomas Jefferson and Armstrong were the cream of the crop– when the original Glen Allen High School and Maggie Walker football teams competed for championships.

“I went out myself to see some of the Armstrong con-tests,” he said. “That was truly a happening in Richmond when all of that occurred. I think in ‘68 they had 30,000 fans here to see the Walker vs Armstrong games. Of course the John Marshall vs TJ games were his-tory in themselves starting back in 1930-31. They had some awesome contests. That was the happening of the season.”

Overall, Richmond football fans will enjoy the trip down memory lane or crossing the yard markers into the gridiron past for the first time.

Pomfrey held his first book signing on Monday night and has two more scheduled in the weeks ahead. Pomfrey will be signing books at Gus’ Italian Café in Mechanicsville on Saturday, October 29 from 12-2 p.m. The author will also be at Big Al’s Sports Bar & Grill on November 5, from 12-2 p.m.
