School board ponders more cuts

John Wright addresses Goochland School Board members with his budget concerns at last week’s meeting.

CRC cancels Farmers Market

The Center for Rural Culture (CRC) will not oper-ate a Farmers Market in Goochland this year.

“There are just not enough vendors and customers to sup-port two markets in Goochland,” said CRC President Kate Sarfaty Monday. She cited the large number of farmers markets in the Richmond area and the ris-ing price of gasoline as factors in the organization’s decision.

Sarfaty said the decision was reached with “tremendous sad-ness,” but added that it was only for this season.

“It’s not to say we won’t do it again but this summer is just not viable,” she said.

The fate of the Goochland Farmers Market had been in doubt ever since controversy erupted in January, when for-mer CRC Executive Director Lisa Dearden demanded the resignation of the current and past presidents and the trea-surer of the CRC, citing dis-crepancies in the organization’s accounting.

Dearden eventually resigned and the CRC announced last month that a review of its

books by accounting firm Keiter Stevens had revealed no misap-propriation of funds. At that time the CRC said it planned to continue the Goochland Farmers Market at Grace Episcopal Church, beginning in May.

But the split between sup-porters of Dearden, who recent-ly announced she would oper-ate a market this year at a site in Centerville, and her former employer evidently doomed the Goochland Farmers Market, setting up the prospect of two competing markets in the same county.

“I’m not pleased that they are not having a market,” said Dearden Monday, adding that she had not originally intend-ed to start a new farmers mar-ket. She said she plans to open May 7 and has already signed up 30 vendors for her market, called My Goochland Market, located at 68 Broad Street Road in Manakin-Sabot.

Sarfaty said the CRC will continue to operate the Local Roots Food Co-op, managed by Jane Conner and will also operate a community gar-den to benefit the Goochland

Goochland School Board members pondered some

unpleasant options March 8, as Superintendent Linda Underwood presented pos-sible reductions should the county not fully fund the pro-posed schools’ budget.

Ideas on the table include reducing the school year to 160 days from 180, staggering school start times to imple-ment double bus runs, elimi-

nating middle school sports, keeping all four furlough days (two had been proposed to be eliminated), foregoing the hiring of a math specialist and numerous others.

The school board has asked for about $1.4 million more than the county has planned to provide in its most recent proposal, although it appears

the gap may narrow.In an email Tuesday to

the schools’ leadership team and later forwarded by her to the Gazette, Underwood wrote, “These are not rec-ommendations, but possible areas of reduction. I will not ask the board to make deci-

Sarfaty said the co-op concept had advantages over a market, because vendors could pick or prepare only the amount ordered by cus-tomers, thus eliminating wastage.

sions about reductions until after the supervisors approve the county budget on April 5. At that time, we will have to make reductions in order to meet the appropriation,” wrote Underwood in her email.

“I want you, and your staff, to be aware of the items that are going before the board tonight. They are dramatic and disastrous, but the best we can

do to continue doing what we must do within our shrinking means.”

Leaked to the public, the email sparked a number of comments during the meet-ing’s first public comment period.

“I think the list I saw today far exceeds the needs to miti-gate the differences in this bud-get,” said John Wright. “I find it quite close to mental terrorism in many ways… I think we need to try and address things in a very rational and real

manner and not try and scare everybody to death,” he said.

Randolph Elementary School PTA president Kendall Hoffler said in the past four years she has seen “what feels like the dismantling of this school system.” Hoffler said what was coming out of the central office was disturbing. “It truly feels like you are try-ing to rile the parents up to go to the board of supervisors to get us to support funding for the school budget.”

Hoffler asked the board members if they knew what was coming out from the cen-tral office to the staff. “Do you understand what the parents are hearing?” she asked.

Hoffler said the system had managed “to run off one of the best administrators that we had in this county [GES prin-cipal Stacey Austin],” calling that fact “the elephant in the room.”

A tearful Heather Williams said her daughter was devas-tated to learn that art might be cut. “I’m truly scared about the future for our children,” she said.

But not all the news was bad. Assistant Superintendent Peter Gretz and Maintenance Chief Sonny Turner outlined a plan to reduce energy con-sumption by 10 to 12 percent, offsetting an expected increase

in electricity costs. The plan includes lowering thermostats to 70 from 72 degrees during heating season and doing away with any individual electrical devices, such as heaters, coffee makers and the like.

“Unplug when possible,” urged Gretz.

Actual savings would amount to about $30,000, dis-appointing to Turner.

“My goal was to save one position,” said Turner, acknowl-edging that with the electricity rate increase that would not happen.

Underwood’s budget pre-sentation followed, contain-ing revised figures on the gap between the county and the school system.

Increased revenue from the state of about $39,000 cou-pled with decreased costs for health insurance and for VRS of about $87,000 and $112,000 have reduced the gap to about $1,186,000, said Underwood, before presenting a list of more than 20 areas that could be cut to close he gap.

In addition to those already mentioned, Underwood listed, among others:

• Eliminating Goochland High School golf, swimming and gymnastics

• Eliminating two games from every sports schedule

except football• Reducing art and music

programs at elementary schools to SOQ levels

• Instituting participation fees for all extracurricular activities

• Having secondary assis-tant principals teach one sec-tion each

• Cutting several clerical positions

“I can give you 10 reasons for everything that went up on that screen for why we shouldn’t do it,” said Underwood after her presentation, acknowledg-ing the painful nature of many of the recommendations.

“I believe you are going to have to make some deci-sions that people are going to disagree with – that you are going to disagree with,” said Underwood.

Board member James Haskell floated the idea of a joint meeting of the board of supervisors and the school board to try to iron out their differences.

Chairman Ivan Mattox said he would contact board of supervisors chairman William Quarles about the possibility of such a meeting.

But board member Raymond Miller cautioned that there might be legal ques-tions pertaining to a joint

meeting of the two boards and advised consulting the schools’ legal counsel before scheduling such a meeting.

On the subject of reduc-ing the number of elementary schools, Miller said that was for consideration in future years should budget cuts con-tinue to be necessary.

The board voted unani-mously to authorize a reduc-tion in force should it become necessary. Underwood emphasized that the vote was required to take the first step of verifying employment sta-tus and did not mean reduc-tions would actually be made.

A second public comment period brought more citizen input, including specific rec-ommendations for cuts.

Penny Palen proposed eliminating a number of “unmandated” positions, including both the director of elementary and second-ary education, a high school assistant principal and several others.

Hoffler, speaking a sec-ond time, agreed. “If you are going to put teachers on the table you have to put admin-istrators on the table too,” she said.

The school board next meets on March 22 for its work session at the high school at 6:30 p.m.

NAHS art show Saturday at GHS

Photo by Ken Odor

National Art Honor Society members Nicole Diterlizzi, left, Lily Johnson and Jill Kline display some of their work which will be on display this Saturday in the GHS cafeteria.

What do you do when money is tight?

Why put on a show of course.

So members of the National Art Honor Society (NAHS) at Goochland High School are plan-ning an art show this Saturday, to raise funds for their annual schol-

arship award and for the GHS Art Department.

NAHS members Nicole Diterlizzi, Lily Johnson and Jill Kline talked about the upcoming event last Friday.

“It’s brand new,” said the three girls in unison, when asked if the society had had a show before.

Diterlizzi, a junior and NAHS president, came up with the idea for the show, which is scheduled

for 12 to 5 p.m. this Saturday, March19 in the GHS Cafeteria. Works from NAHS club mem-bers and other art students will be on display. Some will be for sale. Works by local professional artists will also be on display and available for purchase.

Club vice president Kline, a sophomore, said the club has 17 members this year up from only four last year. To be a member a student must submit a portfolio and maintain at least a B average in their art classes.

Club secretary Johnson, also a sophomore, said the event was basically a fundraiser. “We don’t

get any money,” she explained. “The only reason we have any now is because we won the float contest at Homecoming,” she said.

In addition to exhibitions of high school students’ work, art from the county’s three elementary schools will also

be shown, the girls said.Other attractions will include per-formances by members of the school’s dance department, live music by Riley Allison, an NAHS member who plays violin and previews by actors in costume from the school’s production of “Annie,” which runs this weekend, Friday through Sunday.

Raffles, door prizes, draw-ing lessons and food are

among the other added attrac-tions planned for the show.

As well as talking about the upcoming show, the three NAHS officers talked about what art meant to them.

“Ever since I can remember I’ve loved art,” said Diterlizzi, who said she was inspired by the beauty of horses. Diterlizzi, who works mostly in chalk pastel, will display a portrait of her pony “Fancy Lady.”

Johnson said art provided an outlet for her. “I can’t stand reality!” she exclaimed. “Art is an escape into the imagina-tion.” She will show her pic-ture called “Blonde Chick,” created with marker and cray-on. Johnson said she also likes to work with Sharpies and water color.

Kline will show her work “Mistletoe and Dragon,” cre-ated with oils, acrylics and water color, a fantasy image she said was inspired by the work of underground artist Anne Stokes.

Diterlizzi and Kline both said they hope to go on to major in art in college.

The club has gotten help this year from several local patrons. Dawson’s Pharmacy and Subway have made donations, as has the Goochland Rotary Club and former GES art teacher Sandra Barkley.

“It’s going to be a really fun interactive event,” said Diterlizzi. “Kids will want to go to get the community involved in art.”

The Threepenny Opera by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill opened at Longwood Theatre on Feb. 24 with two weekends of

jazzy stage action. The play fea-tured two former area students—Daniel Ellis and Laura Gonzalez.

The director, Professor of Theatre Gene Muto, said, “The story of Mack the Knife, made famous in popular song (Louis

Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Bobby Darin) originally dates back to 1728. The idea then was that government was corrupt, society was corrupt, and everyone was hypocritical. Those ideas rang true in the Germany of the 1920s. We wonder if they’re at all rel-evant today.”

The Threepenny Opera is based on The Beggar’s Opera from the 1700s and was revived in London to kick off the Roaring 20s. It will feature parody, satire and story-songs, and is recom-mended for mature audiences.

Daniel Ellis, a 2009 gradu-ate of Goochland County High School appeared on stage as the Balladeer. He previously

performed in Othello and The Grapes of Wrath and has been active behind the scenes in other productions as assistant to the director, stage manager and assistant sound designer. Daniel, a Longwood freshman theatre major, is the son of Jeff and Robin Ellis of Goochland.

Laura Gonzalez returned to the stage in The Threepenny Opera as Mrs. Peachum, who manages the gang of beggars and crooks. In last season’s production of Little Shop of Horrors, Laura portrayed a sassy Doo-Wop girl. She is a 2006 graduate of Atlee High School who won Richmond Idol 2006. Laura is a Longwood senior theatre major and the

daughter of Conrad and Nancy Gonzalez of Mechanicsville.

This production was col-laboration between Longwood Theatre and the Department of Music’s Opera Workshop. Music director, Dr. Christopher Swanson, commented that “the students have an unbelievable experience in this class; a typi-

cal university opera workshop course does not usually offer stu-dents real dramatic training. Nor do they provide opportunities for underclassmen. At least half of this year’s class is made up of freshmen and sophomores and in the current production several of the leading roles are being per-formed by underclassmen.”

Supervisors hear budget requests

Goochland’s supervisors convened Monday afternoon for a work session to hear budget presentations from eight departments.

Animal Control Officer Tim Clough presented his agency’s FY2012 request of $160,153, which matched to the penny the county admin-istration’s recommendation.

Clough asked the board to consider increasing board-ing fees from $4 per day to $10 per day, and once owner is notified from $10 per day to $15 per day, and increase the pickup fee from $10 to $20. These increases would result in from $750 to $1,000 in additional revenue, said Clough.

Clough said the county would need to consider add-ing a fourth staff member to the agency and expanding the animal shelter in the future.

Assessor Glenn Branham

requested $303,159 for the County Assessors office, again in line with the adminis-tration’s recommendation. Branham, who went from full-time to part-time last year, asked the county to con-sider purchasing hand held computer tablets at a cost of $8,500 to speed data collec-tion.

Commonwealth’s attorney Claiborne Stokes’ presenta-tion was short and sweet.

“I met with Ms. Dickson in December. She asked me to cut and I did,” said Stokes, whose department gets much of its funding from the state. County funds for the agency would increase by $6,474 to $182,485, less than half of the $440,452 total. Supervisor Jim Eads then asked if there was any hope for a viable noise ordinance, to which Stokes answered no, unless a device for measuring decibel levels were used.

The Pamunkey Regional Library presentation by

Director Tom Shepley illus-trated the changes that the austerity of the recession has caused. The Goochland branch had its hours cut from 60 hours weekly to 42 last year and Shepley reported that computer use was down by 33 percent and other services were down about 19 percent. His request was $382,991, a 2 percent reduction. Shepley said the return to a 60 hour week and the hiring of a ref-erence librarian were desired but not included in this year’s budget.

Circuit Court Clerk Lee Turner requested an addi-tional $43,000 in funding for the full time position that was eliminated last year. The posi-tion was established in 2004 and the additional work has not gone away, said Turner.

Supervisor Ned Creasey asked if fee increases would help and Turner answered in the affirmative. County administrator Rebecca Dickson said that would be

looked into.Parks and Recreation

Director Derek Stamey pre-sented a request of $442,283 as opposed to the adminis-tration’s $415,921 proposed funding. Stamey said the department would like to add benefits to two part time posi-tions.

Fire and Rescue Chief William MacKay, after pre-senting statistics showing increased calls for service, asked for the restoration of the 12th Firefighter/EMT position. His department is budgeted for $1,665,155 in county funds.

Herb Griffith made the presentation on behalf of the County Registrar. The $145,556 in proposed funding included $26,089 to help cover redistricting expenses and the possibility of up to five pri-mary elections in FY2012.

Don’t put Goodwill Store in Bellview Gardens

The Goodwill Industries’ Mission Statement reads:

“Goodwill Industries International enhances the dignity and quality of life of individuals, families and com-munities by eliminating barriers to opportunity and helping people in need reach their fullest potential through the power of work.”

I support that cause and I’m willing to believe all of the Bellview Gardens residents also support it. I have a history of making donations to Goodwill Industries in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where I used to live, and in Richmond, where I live today. I

support it because it exemplifies com-munity involvement; people getting together to help others less fortunate.

I believe the residents of Bellview Gardens more than welcome a Goodwill location in Goochland County, provided it is in a location that meets everyone’s needs and con-cerns. With that, I do not believe the proposed location on Broad Street and Mills Road is in everyone’s best interests.

A person should always make a rational, measured decision about where to build or purchase a home. I chose to build a home in Bellview Gardens because it is a well developed, moderately affluent neighborhood with a lot of positive growth potential within a county with a lot of growth

potential. It is located in a good school district which is important to me as a parent as well as to others in the neighborhood raising families. I also chose to build here because it offers an amount of seclusion and privacy, something many people cherish. It provides an opportunity to relax in an increasingly stressful world and pro-vides a nurturing environment where we can raise our children to become competent, responsible and successful citizens.

In a ‘perfect’ world, I believe many of us in the neighborhood would be completely content not having to witness the continued build up in the county; to continue living in a

Letters to the Editor

Last Tuesday’s Goochland School Board meeting was sort of like déjà vu all over again, as they say.

Which might have been what one should expect, in a climate where county revenues have declined for a second straight year and reductions in spending must be made.

After hearing that the county is sticking to its original plan (at least for the time being) to transfer about $700,000 less to schools for FY12 than last year, Goochland School Superintendent Linda Underwood briefed board members on areas where cuts might be considered.

The list had been sent to the leadership team by email that afternoon and leaked to the community, arousing concern among many. The room was packed, although many in the crowd came to see the numerous recognitions of students that were handed out at the start of the meeting.

Many of the suggestions, and Underwood emphasized that’s what they were, only suggestions, have been heard before – like staggered school opening times and extra-curricular activity participation fees. Others were new, like cutting the school year to 160 days and eliminating all GMS athletics.

Board member Raymond Miller’s idea of possibly closing one elementary school was definitely a new idea but one that if we understand him correctly, was brought up for study as an option for future years. Would it make sense? We don’t know but it would be a big change, requiring great adjustments by the school system.

Still others seemed a foregone conclusion, given that no matter if the numbers improve a little, there is still likely to be a pretty large gap, such as keeping the four furlough days and giving up the idea of hiring a math specialist.

What brought out that feeling of reliving something you’ve been through before were the comments from some speakers that school administration was just trying to rile up the parents to put pressure on the board of supervisors. We heard that last year.

And suggestions that the board cut administrative positions harkened back to last year as well, when GEPA members hammered away at this point with little success.

But toward the end board member Jim Haskell tried several times to interest his fellow school board members in his idea of meeting with the supervisors in order to better explain the schools budget.

Well, better late than never. If having the two boards meet face to face would help tone down the obvious animosity that exist between the two bodies, it should be done. After covering both boards it’s obvious to this writer that the gulf is so wide that it’s hard to imagine that a joint meeting could do any harm.

So why not give it a try? Get the two boards together and let them talk. Maybe something good would come of it. Then perhaps next year the sense of déjà vu all over again will not be so strong.

less densely populated environ-ment. But I also believe most of us accept this is not a real-istic expectation. Growth and development is essential for an economy to continue to thrive. This is the foundation that estab-lishes a strong and vibrant local economy which, in turn, con-tributes to a strong and vibrant commonwealth and national economy. However, I believe it is important that growth and devel-opment be achieved through a responsible manner, which takes all stakeholders’ needs into con-sideration.

I respectfully ask that you support the wishes of Bellview Gardens residents to locate the proposed Goodwill facility out-side of this residential communi-ty and into a location surrounded by other retail locations for the following reasons:

1. A More Optimal Retail Location: Locating Goodwill amongst other retail estab-lishments will better position Goodwill to attract customers who are already shopping or con-ducting business in the immedi-ate surrounding retail area (e.g. grocery store customers, restau-rant patrons, etc.). Every suc-cessful Goodwill center I have visited is anchored deep inside a retail/business community. This provides 360 degrees of access to the business, giving it the maxi-mum ability to draw, attract and sustain a viable customer base.

2. Community Support: Locating the Goodwill outside of Bellview Gardens will encourage us to be supportive of having a Goodwill location in the area. We WANT Goodwill to succeed and we want it to succeed in Goochland County. We WANT it to continue performing the great work it does in the com-munities it serves. Building it in a location that does not inhibit our current level of privacy and aesthetic enables all of us to be as supportive as the community needs to be. The strong chari-

table donation potential of this neighborhood is very strong. Having our proud support is a win for Goodwill, its customers, the community and us residents. This is something we should all strive to achieve and sustain.

3. Strong Residential Economic Base

Real Estate Tax Base: With all due respect to Goodwill Industries, we believe the pro-posed location in Bellview Gardens will have a negative impact on neighborhood prop-erty values. I have never seen a Goodwill establishment in such close proximity to an upscale resi-dential neighborhood, the reason being that home owners rightful-ly fear it will reduce the property values of their homes. Should this occur in Bellview Gardens with the proposed construction, two outcomes are very likely to occur:

a. Existing home property values will decline, reducing the valuable real estate tax base this neighborhood currently pro-vides.

b. The likelihood of attract-ing additional affluence to the neighborhood to purchase exist-ing homes for sale or to purchase open lots for new construction will be greatly diminished, further reducing the tax base potential of the neighborhood.

As our county, common-wealth and nation continue to climb out of one of the worst economic recessions we have ever experienced, it is important that we all bond together as a commu-nity to ensure that our economy will thrive. One way to achieve this is to develop the county in a responsible manner, which pre-serves the economic value of its residential communities while at the same time encouraging prop-er business growth.

Consumer Purchasing Power: In recent years, consumer spend-ing has averaged about 65 to 70 percent of the economy’s gross domestic product (GDP). It also continues to account for more than 60 percent of total employment in the U.S. econ-omy. These are not insignifi-

cant statistics. They represent the engine that drives the economy. If the proposed Bellview Gardens Goodwill development project is approved, my belief is that over time, the affluence of this neighborhood risks substantial decline, eroding the purchasing power it currently offers to the county. And if this construction proposal becomes widely known by the surrounding communi-ties, it may have the rippling effect of discouraging residency within the county. Once people come to realize that previously residential-only communities can be nega-tively impacted by having retail or commercial construction projects approved within it, they will be less likely to risk owning a home in the county. Had I known this project was under consider-ation before I built a home here, I would not have purchased prop-erty here and would more than likely have built in a county other than Goochland.

Ensuring that Bellview Gardens retains its moder-ately affluent status and that Goochland county, in general, properly respects its residential neighborhood’s desire to have their homes remain valuable also ensures a greater potential to con-tinue to draw prosperous hom-eowners to the county, which benefits everyone.

Safety Concerns: Though this neighborhood is by no means large, it has a sizable, vibrant population of children and pets. I often see neighborhood kids walking along the streets or riding their bicycles as well as many of the neighbors walking their dogs. This neighborhood is very con-ducive to these activities because the streets are relatively quiet and free of traffic; especially traffic from those who do not reside in this neighborhood. With the proposed construction comes the proposal to widen Mills road in order to provide access to both customers and service provid-ers (e.g. trucks delivering and/or receiving merchandise). This proposal will make the neigh-borhood roads less safe than they currently are, risking injury

to residents, especially children who may run out into traffic to retrieve a dog or cat in harm’s way. None of us wish to experi-ence the anguish of witnessing or dealing with an injured loved one, especially a child. I know the neighborhood does not want this and I firmly believe Goodwill does not want this. Nor do I believe anyone affected by this building proposal desires address-ing liability issues that may result from the increased and more dangerous traffic pattern in the neighborhood that would result from this project. All would be better served if the location of this building was at a site away from residential pedestrian traffic (especially children) which prop-erly mitigates the risk of traffic and pedestrian related injuries.

To quote Goodwill Industries’ Mission Statement again:

“Goodwill Industries International enhances the dig-nity and quality of life of indi-viduals, families and communi-ties by eliminating barriers to opportunity and helping people in need reach their fullest poten-tial through the power of work.”

That their mission incor-porates the phrase, “enhances the dignity and quality of life”, speaks volumes of the great work Goodwill performs. I would like to believe they also embrace other attributes that enhance the dig-nity and quality of life: namely, supporting residential commu-nities wishing to remain solely residential so that they may con-tinue to be protective, peaceful and prosperous communities.

county to interstate 64, running east to west. Expansion of the metropolitan Richmond Region into previously rural Goochland County is evidenced most by the development of commercial and retail businesses along the Broad Street corridor all the way from downtown Richmond, west, through Short Pump, and now even past Centerville. The sce-nario is typical, as urban areas push out into the countryside across the United States.

Existing and planned devel-opment of road infrastructure such as 64/295, Broad Street, Route 288, and commercial and residential development such as West Creek Office Park, with mixed-use zoning, paved the way for change in Goochland County. In an effort to preserve the exist-ing quality of life in Goochland, planners and citizens worked together to identify community goals and plan for controlled and orderly growth as development pressures inevitably grew.

In addition to the required Master and Comprehensive Plans, Goochland citizens and Board of Supervisors developed the Eastern Growth Management Plan in the 90’s as a citizen and county plan to guide growth as it occurred along Goochland County’s eastern boundary with Henrico. First, a historic overlay district was implemented along the Route 6 corridor to serve as a scenic gateway, and a means to help preserve natural and historic integrity along Patterson Avenue and the James River.

Meanwhile, the Broad Street corridor was designated for commercial development. This made perfect sense, since estab-lished development patterns headed west along Broad Street from Short Pump, intersected by Route 288 joining Chesterfield, Midlothian, and Powhatan from the South, and access points to interstates 64 and 295 along the northern boundary of the coun-ty, all three meeting in Eastern Goochland on Broad Street.

In order to attract and main-tain business here, it was neces-sary for the county to provide infrastructure and services. For this reason investment in water and sewer lines was paid for with loans that have to be repaid. Goochland is now making bud-get cuts to our children’s edu-cation to help service this debt. Next, they will further increase property taxes. Because most citi-zens cannot afford to pay higher taxes, it is necessary to attract a business tax base to help pay for infrastructure and services; such as education, waste management, water/ sewer, police, fire, rescue, and other government expenses, needed to maintain our quality of life, and attract business.

Many Goochland residents are aware that a large service/retail non-profit business is inter-ested in coming to Goochland. Goodwill Industries is interested in locating along the Broad Street corridor at 288. The first is always the most contentious, but in this case, will serve our community with the ability to recycle and reuse household and personal items and to purchase them at a reasonable price, not to mention the obvious – Goodwill will help share the increasing tax burden we are all facing as tax payers, as Goodwill agrees to pay the hefty ad valorem tax and hook-up fees for public water and sewer, as well as ongoing county sales tax, which will help offset our debt.

According to Goochland’s Comprehensive Plan 2023, the Broad Street corridor is desig-nated for commercial use. The transition from rural and resi-dential to business, retail, com-mercial and residential uses will require attention to traffic pat-terns and neighborhood bound-aries. Concerns about issues relat-ed to safety of children playing in the streets are increasing. This will continue until the residen-tial use is enclosed and buffered from future density and motor-ist traffic planned for this loca-tion, anyway. A more secluded, private entrance, adjusted to the actual residential boundaries would help motorists distinguish

between residential and commer-cial entrances, allowing for safer access to Bellview Gardens. This would also allow safe and easy access to Goodwill, and increased property value for all. This would be a win-win.

I suggest we hold a design charette to facilitate a planning session where all stakeholder groups work together in an effort to create a site plan to incorpo-rate needs, wants, concerns with county policies to ensure orderly growth and development to protect and enhance the quality of life for residents living in this high-growth area of the county, while also considering ways to realize the positive cash flow we can expect from Goodwill. Let’s work with Goodwill to ensure the structure they build meets our architectural and community standards. We owe it to ourselves and our children.

School system in danger

There is an ugly aura of incompetence floating over Goochland County’s govern-ment. Not only are we the butt of many jokes because of our County Treasurer, but this week Dr. Underwood and the School Board have reached a new level of complete disregard for providing the children of our county with quality education.

The kindergarten at Randolph Elementary was irre-sponsibly and irrationally dis-rupted on Wednesday because the superintendant of the school system announced on Tuesday that she was freezing all funding for elementary substitute teach-ers because the middle school substitute teacher fund was out of money.

So, when a teacher had to be absent, her class was divided among the three other class-es for the entire day! Per the Superintendent, this is what will happen every time a teacher is

absent in elementary school until the end of the school year. How are teachers supposed to teach under these conditions? Is it really so difficult to budget for something as basic as substi-tute teachers? I cannot believe we live in one of the wealthiest counties in the nation and our school board is unable to prop-erly budget for FIVE schools. I would venture a guess that the other wealthiest counties in the nation have more than five pub-lic schools.

Unless something is done, we are in serious danger of los-ing some excellent teachers, and maybe even a school.

As the upcoming girls soc-cer season gets under way, Goochland High School is pre-paring for its second year in the tough Jefferson District. At the same time, perennial VISAA powerhouses Collegiate and St. Catherine’s are primed to once again compete for the LIS title.

GOOCHLAND The Bulldogs return 10

players, but only four of them were starters last year, so this year’s squad will be young.

Coach Tom Reid recog-nizes the challenges, but also sees some bright spots for his squad. “The strength should be the midfield and striker posi-tions,” Reid said. “The defen-sive four and keeper are play-ers that need to develop and mature quickly to work as a team.”

Strikers Bridget Panas and Tesia Zogran should provide ample offensive punch for the Bulldogs, while midfielders Brook Engel, Amberly Marria, Kayla Cleveland and Kelsey Simmons will also contribute.

“They’ve been playing soc-cer together for years and con-tinue to improve,” Reid said.

Cohesiveness will be the key to victory for the young Bulldogs. One of Reid’s main goals is “getting the players to work as a team in support of each other and learn to read the game well enough to com-pete offensively and defensively every second of their playing time.”

While Reid keeps an eye on this year’s wins and losses, he will also monitor other factors that lead up to a successful season.

“My goal (as a coach) is for the girls to have fun, play hard with good sportsman-ship,” Reid said. “As a coach at this level it is important for the teams to learn that the team

comes first while having fun.” Charlottesville, Western

Albemarle, Monticello and Fluvanna are just some of the formidable foes on the Bulldog schedule.

ST. CATHERINE’S The Saints are looking to

improve on their fourth place state finish last year. More importantly, the team can expect another nail biting chal-lenge from Collegiate in the LIS.

St. Catherine’s returns a dominating midfield that should anchor the Saints squad for 2011. “Our midfield is a bad mix for opposing defenses; from the back to the front, speed is going to be the key to success,” said head coach Laurie Marshalek.

A key player for the Saints will be Amanda Kim, a defen-sive midfielder who “creates traffic in the attacking zone.”

Marshalek also depends on Kim for leadership and experi-ence.

“Her skills and talent can influence a match at both ends of the field,” Marshalek said. “She’s a natural leader, a

link from the freshman to the seniors and from the backline to the forwards.”

The coach also has stra-tegic goals that should make the Saints season another win-ner. In addition to defending the counter attack, Marshalek plans include, “Wing Play-if we use the flank players effectively, it will be a challenge to slow them down,” as another key to victory.

Marshalek feels the Saints will have to be opportunistic and take advantage of open-ings. “Converting chances-not wasting opportunities to put the ball in the back of the net,” will be a key element in this year’s success.

The coach knows the task won’t be easy, and acknowl-edges that expectations are high for the Saints. “The bar is set high for this program,” she said. We finished second in the LIS and fourth in the State last year. Three of our four losses came to Collegiate, who won the State Championship.”

The Saints are looking for another chance at their arch rivals, and lists as one of their

team’s goals “a return to the LIS championship game.”

COLLEGIATE Repeating a champion-

ship season is never easy, but Collegiate seems poised to defend as the 2011 opener approaches. The Cougars are in a reload mode, with a sprin-kling of experience returning from last year’s VISAA state championship squad.

“We return a strong team nucleus despite graduating 10 seniors,” said Coach Bill Rider. “We’ll need to stay healthy as we incorporate some new players into the fray.”

On defense, the Cougars

will depend on defender Carrie Shadowen. “She will be called upon to anchor a new defense,” Rider said.

According to the coach, midfielders Julia Sroba and Meredith Donahue “will pro-vide creativity and trouble in the midfield.”

Last year’s championship victory is providing a fair amount of optimism among the team, and Rider said the clock-beating win opened up some eyes.

“Last year’s finish with the winning goal in the waning seconds of the state finals will provide reassurance that any-

thing is possible in any game,” he said.

The Cougars will face regional rivals like Douglas Freeman, Mills E. Godwin and Deep Run, as well as facing its traditional LIS foes in the form of St. Catherine’s and Trinity.

Rider said his Cougars enter this season with enthu-siasm and a strong desire to win.

“We have high expectations for ourselves, as we do each year,” Rider said. “The older players welcome the challenge of building on the success of previous seasons.”

The Goochland boys’ soccer team enters this season with a clear-cut goal of improving on last year’s record. That won’t be easy as the team prepares for its second session in the Jefferson District.

“Last year was our first

real experience with double A teams,” said Coach Patrick Brook. “We didn’t win as many games as we would have liked, but that has better prepared us for this season. We have stepped up conditioning as we noticed our players were tiring in the second half of play.”

One of the returning players who will play a key role in this

year’s campaign is goalkeeper Chris Hawk, a junior who cap-tured MVP honors last year. He is joined by strikers Nick Yuen and Brad Bumgarner.

“We expect to see many goals from them this season,” Brook said.

Jesse McWilliams and Jace Gregory also return for the Bulldogs.

On defense, Lee McLaughlin and Patrick Reeder will return along with a fresh face that is expected to contribute. “Newcomer Richard Young has found his place at sweeper,” Brook said.

Brook feels everything adds up to an improved squad for

this season, but he realizes the difficult schedule could present problems for the Bulldogs.

“We have a tough sched-ule this season. The Jefferson District has some talented teams,” Brook said. “We expect to be competitive against William Monroe, Louisa, and Orange. Charlottesville gave us some trouble last year, but we intend to come out strong and play each team to the best of our ability.”

The coach also has a clear

idea of what it will take for the team to be successful.

“Victory can only be achieved through teamwork, discipline, and old fashioned hard work,” Brook said. “We have intensified our condition-ing and are working to bring out the best team we can.”

While the Bulldogs will be chasing victories against some tough competition, Brook real-izes the true reward is reflected by the effort displayed by his players.

“We hope that this season will be a great experience for all of our players,” he said. “We are trying to foster hard-work, respect, and devotion to the team while improving the skills of our players.”

A SPECIALTY PUBLICATION OF RICHMOND SUBURBAN NEWSPAPERS

By Jim RidolphiContributing Writer

Children of families involved in court related matters often find themselves in turmoil and reach out for resources that can assist them through a difficult sit-uation. Those concerns often lead to a visit to the Henrico Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA).

The agency provides resources for children who are abused or neglected and are involved in the juvenile and domestic court in

Henrico County. CASA volun-teers are assigned to cases through the court system and seek the best outcomes for children who often fall through the cracks.

Cases with assigned CASA vol-unteers are more likely to result in outcomes that protect the future of the affected children, and courts often require parents of these children to access more resources.

The system relies on a dedi-cated group of volunteers, who commit time and energy to the effort. Potential counselors

undergo an extensive training program before entering service, and classes are offered through the private, non-profit agency.

Henrico CASA served 277 chil-dren last year (July 1, 2009 - June 30, 2010). Our mission is to serve every child in Henrico County that is referred to us by a Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court judge,” said CASA program man-ager Dayle Goldberg.

Volunteers spend a couple of hours a month with in home visits and prepare written reports to judges, and work closely with

social workers in many cases. After more than 30 hours of training, the volunteers are well acquainted with the juvenile jus-tice system and the issues facing affected youth.

“Because we are a volunteer-based organization, we are always seeking dedicated and committed people to join us as we advocate for children who find themselves in the court system through no fault of their own,” Goldberg said. “It is one of the most rewarding

Conributed Report

The Virginia Educational Media Association (VEMA) has selected Ann M. Martin, educational specialist for library services, as the 2011 Media Educator of the Year.

The distinction recognizes educators for outstanding con-tributions in developing edu-cational media and technology programs and for professional leadership in the field. Martin will be recognized at the state conference held in Richmond in November.

“It is humbling and exciting to accept the VEMA award for Media Educator of the Year,” says Martin. “I am grateful to my peers and colleagues for this recognition of excellence in library leadership. It validates the outstanding support that Henrico County Public Schools libraries receive from our school board and administration and confirms the library’s impor-tant role in student achieve-ment.”

Julie Tate, library media specialist for Hanover County Public Schools, nominated

Martin for the distinction.

Martin is recognized for her professionalism, availability and advocacy. She empowers librarians and celebrates the achievements of students and faculties.

“She is professional in her dealings, well-read in her theo-ries in and philosophies, over-whelmingly respected in her field, and passionate in her love for the job and its potential to change lives,” say Henrico County Public Schools librar-ians Kathleen Roberts, Rebecca Hardin, and Angela Branyon.

Deep Run High School stu-dents are gearing up to get in the groove at the Fifth-Annual 27-Hour Deep Run Marathon Dance on Friday, March 18 through Saturday, March 19.

Nearly 700 students have signed up for the overnight event held to benefit 12 differ-ent local charities.

Organized by a student com-mittee, daylong and overnight events are scheduled including a limbo competition, air band competitions and a dance-off.

Over the course of the last four years, the students of Deep Run have raised more than $451,000.00 for local chari-ties. Last year’s event raised $137,000, and the school hopes to break its record this year. For more information, please visit

the Web site at www.mddrhs.org. To make a donation to the dance, please contact fac-ulty director Kathleen Kern at [email protected].

To participate in the dance, each student is required to collect $100 in pledge money. Proceeds will support Shady Grove Family YMCA, Positive Vibe Foundation, Coordinators 2 Inc., Fan Free Clinic, ReeseStrong Foundation Inc.,

William Byrd Community House, Camp Kesem, Jack and Abby Neonatal Foundation, Cystic

Fybrosis Foundation, Wings of Hope Ranch, Gerry Bertier Foundation, and Children Incorporated.

“These students are learning a very important, intangible lesson and that is the impor-tance of giving back to your community,” says David Kern,

Marathon Dance co-direc-tor and exceptional education teacher. “This is not necessarily done through monetary dona-tions but through understand-ing the importance of volun-teerism.

They are also learning how to work together as a team, debate important issues, and the aspects that go into planning, organizing, and implementing a large scale event like this.”

experiences a person can have as a volunteer. Just knowing that you may be that one consistent person in a child’s life and the one who listens is an amazing thing.”

In many cases, the CASA volunteers make the difference between a life of foster care and the security of a loving adoption.

The efforts are a preventative measure to offset the negative effects of children who don’t receive the proper attention in abuse and neglect services. They

are often prone to a path of juvenile delinquency and even-tual adult offenders. Nationwide, CASA believes communities are better served with preventative measures that reach youth early and provide resources that allow a chance at better outcomes.

“CASA volunteers provide the judge with factual informa-tion gathered as a result of their extensive and comprehensive investigation of the child’s situ-ation,” Goldberg said. “Visiting the child on a weekly basis and becoming familiar with what is happening with the child and the family gives the CASA the opportunity to have the informa-

tion the judge needs to make the important decisions that have to be made in the best interest of the child,” she added.

Henrico CASA will join with its Chesterfield counterpart to host the annual Superhero Run at St. Joseph’s Villa on April 9. The event is designed to raise funds and community awareness of the victims of abuse living in the Richmond area.

The Martin Agency will spon-sor the event, a 5K race and fam-ily fun event on the campus at 8000 Brook Road.

“Henrico and Chesterfield CASA are thrilled to host their

second Superhero Run and help increase awareness of the special needs of abused and neglected children in our community,” said Barbara Herzog, executive direc-tor of Henrico CASA. “We are grateful for The Martin Agency’s partnership and support in bringing this unique event to the Richmond region,” she added.

Runners are urged to run in their favorite superhero’s outfit and the best costumes will be recognized along with the race winners.
