Lewis to close
concert series
Maritime musician and storyteller
Tom Lewis will perform from 6 to 8
p.m. Sunday, October 17, at Festival
Halle in Reedville.
Doors open at 5:15 p.m. Guests
are welcome to bring a picnic supper.
Tables will be set up and chairs also
will be arranged audience style.
Beverages and snacks will be sold.
A donation of $5 per person is suggested.
The concert represents the final
Reedville Fishermen’s Concert of the
2010 series.
Created from his years in the Royal
Navy and years in folk clubs and festivals, Lewis’ songs cover a range of
nautical topics, from life on board Her
Majesty’s ships, through the loneliness and lure of the sea, to traditional
chanties and classic nautical poetry,
many set to his own melodies.
He has produced many CDs and a
songbook including 46 of his own.
For every song, he has offered commentary as to what prompted him to
write it. Each book also includes a CD
with song clips.
Pickleball is all the rage
at Northern Neck YMCA
by Lisa Hinton Valdrighi
W
hat do you get when you cross
bandminton, tennis and ping
pong? The answer is an oddly named
sport that offers up a fun, cardiovascular
workout and is growing in popularity in
the lower Northern Neck.
It’s Pickleball and it has nothing to
do with the vegetable condiment of the
same name.
Although surprisingly few people
have heard of the sport, it’s actually been
around for 45 years.
The game evolved out of boredom,
according to the USA Pickleball Association’s website, usapa.org.
One summer afternoon in 1965, U.S.
Congressman Joel Pritchard and his
friend, William Bell, and their families
were sitting around at Pritchard’s home
in Seattle, Wash. With nothing to do,
they decided to play a game of badminton. But without a full set of bandminton
equipment, they improvised and made
their own rackets from remains of broken
ones and used a plastic ball they found.
The name came from the Pritchards’
cocker spaniel, Pickles, who retrieved
the ball each time it went out of bounds.
The yelling of “Pickles-ball” was later
shortened and so was born a sport that
nearly half a century later is being played
across the country on outdoor courts at
campgrounds, at YMCAs, in schools and

Connie.
“If you want to play one-on-one, it’s a
great way to lose weight,” said Connie,
who as an ambassador has committed to
promoting, organizing and teaching the
sport.
“Think of [pickleball] as a little bit of
ping pong, a little bit of badminton and a
little bit of tennis,” she said. “It’s a great
sport that anyone can play. It increases
your reaction time, strengthens your core
and is a great cardio workout.”
Pickleball is played on a court slightly
smaller than a regulation tennis court
— 20 by 44 feet — with a net hung 36
inches from the ground on each end.
Players use a wooden paddle to hit a plastic ball similar to a wiffle ball but with
smaller holes.
Serves are made underhand and must
bounce once on the opposite side before
being returned. Once the ball is returned
and has bounced once on both sides of
the net, it can be volleyed or played off
the bounce.
Teams only score when serving and
points are lost when the ball is hit out of
bounds, hits the net or is volleyed in a
7-foot no-volley zone in front of the net.
A team must win by two points and
a normal game is played to 11 points.
Games in last week’s tournament were
played to 15.
Anyone can play
Sounds complicated, but players say
it’s actually a very easy game to learn.
At 85, Jinx Holton has the distinction
of being the oldest pickleball player at
the YMCA. A lifelong tennis player, she
gave up that sport when the sideways
motion started to hurt her knees.
“Absolutely anybody can play this.
You don’t have to be an athlete,” said

Holton, who started playing just six
weeks ago.
“I think it’s wonderful,” she said. “You
don’t have to have a set team like in tennis
or golf, where you usually put together a
team. You just show up to play and when
one game ends and a group stops, you
just get up and play. Sometimes you
play with all men or all women, it really
doesn’t make a difference.”
Because the game is easy to learn,
family friendly and can be played by all
ages, many schools have added it to their
physical education programs. Lancaster
County middle schoolers play the game
in their physical education classes.
The Northern Neck Family YMCA,
which provides all the necessary pickleball equipment, is offering a special
pickleball package. Players do not have
to be a member of the YMCA but can
pay only to play pickleball.

Chris Robertson is to be congratulated as his first time on stage distinguishes him with his manic energy
and dedication to the smallest nuances
of each character. His scenes of a
baby-talking father, and a hard-boiled
inmate allows the audience to cry with
laughter. His pleasing vocals only add
to an already impressive display, said
Blake.

RAPPAHANNOCK RECORD
Kilmarnock • Virginia Menokin seeks more volunteers to help
preserve site and tell the story of the ruins
The Menokin Foundation is seeking volunteers to help tell the story of the historic site,
organize fund-raisers including an annual music
festival, maintain the gardens and grounds, and
other related duties, according to assistant director Leslie Rennolds.
Menokin was the home of Frances Lightfoot Lee, signer of the Declaration of Independence, and brother to Richard Henry Lee, said
Rennolds. The house is an archaeological ruin
which has undergone years of careful excavation, conservation and stabilization to preserve
it as a learning resource for 18th-century architectural techniques and materials.
Menokin sits on 500 acres in Richmond
County, 250 of which are part of the Rappahannock River Wildlife Refuge, she said. The site
includes a Woodland Trail, a bluebird trail, and
access to Cat Point Creek, as well as a visitors’
center that houses much of the original woodwork excavated from the house before its col-
lapse in the 1950s.
Volunteers participate in the preservation and
interpretation of all that Menokin has to offer,
said Rennolds.
“Right now we need friendly folks to greet
visitors; docents willing to be trained to lead
tours; educators to guide K-12 students and
adults in archaeology, history, and conservation; archeological assistants; gardeners and
native plant enthusiasts to create a Butterfly
Demonstration Garden, and much, much more,”
she said.
Interested individuals are invited to an open
house Saturday, November 6, from 10 a.m. to
1:30 p.m. Activities will include a brief presentation on the history of Menokin, a tour of the
Visitors’ Center and the ruin, lunch and a brief
training session. Lunch is complimentary; however, a reservation is required. Call Pam Narney at 333-1776 to make a reservation.

Friday, October 29, is the
deadline for purchasing a holiday banner for the Town of
Kilmarnock to honor a family
loved one.
The banners will be displayed throughout downtown
Kilmarnock during the holiday season, according to town
council member Shawn Donahue, chairman of the street
committee. Banners are $100
each.
“The banners will be added
to our street lamps in Steptoe’s
District along with those purchased in 2009,” said Donahue.
”Several banner orders have
been placed already and there’s
still time to order.”
All honorees and donors
will be listed in a Keepsake
Book held at the Kilmarnock
Museum and announced in a
holiday lighting ceremony just
before Thanksgiving, he said.
The banners feature a red

and are part of Kilmarnock’s
annual decorating plan, said
Donahue. They will be installed
in November each year. While
locations can be requested,

Tickets for PAS events can be

or in subscription form for four
or more performances, when a
discount drops per event ticket
prices to $12 for adults and $9

All shows will be staged at
The Westmoreland Players theater about two miles west of
Callao on Route 360.
“Ticket sales since PAS
began a couple of years ago are
proving audiences love these
smaller, spontaneous Sunday
afternoon delights,” said artistic director Glenn Evans.
The series includes:
• “Tales From the Spooky
Side”—historical
comedian
Chris Davis offers his version of The Legend of Sleepy
Hollow and channels Edgar
Allen Poe with macabre readings from his works; October
31.
• “A Christmas Carol”—relive the radio plays of a bygone
era with actors reading from the
famous Dickens work; December 11 and 12.
• “Get In The Mood”
—Northern Neck Big Band

rafters and reprise the hits of an
unforgotten era; January 16.

which highlighted her dress. She
was escorted by her cousin, James
E. Justice of Philadelphia.
The mistress of ceremonies,
the Rev. Brenda Campbell Phillips, and the master of ceremonies, Lloyd N. Hill, guided the
program with quips and stories
which kept the 120 guests in a
festive mood all evening. Family
and friends traveled from many
places including some of her
Tartan Village neighbors to help
her celebrate.
The scene-stealer of the evening was Mrs. Scott’s great-niece,
Logan, 2½ years old, who seemed
to have as much fun as everyone
else. Mrs. Scott was especially
happy that her high school classmate from Philadelphia, Pauline
Watson Chaderson, attended and
had baked her a birthday cake.
Many speakers recounted Mrs.
Scott’s work and leadership in
the community as a church and
missionary leader, a civic activist, beautician, soloist and choir
member, her work with children
and teaching arts and crafts. Her
service in the establishment of the
A.T. Wright memorial at the old
school site was also remembered.
Mary Dolby remembered that
Scott first learned to fix hair by
practicing curling and plaiting
the grass in her yard. From that
beginning came several area
Mrs. Catherine G. Scott
beauticians who credited Scott
for starting their careers.
Other participants were Francis Ball, Reba Murray, Ruth and
Ackneil Muldrow, the Mount
Vernon Baptist Church Men’s
Choir, Frank and Betty Thornton,
the Rev. Rowena Davenport and
Laura Smith. George Dunaway
Jr. was the caterer. Marvis Jones

Kilmarnock sets Halloween hours
The Town of Kilmarnock will conduct “Trick or Treating” on
Sunday, October 31, 2010 only.
Per the town’s ordinances, only children 12 years of age and
under are permitted to engage in trick-or-treating activities, said
assistant town administrator Susan T. Cockrell. However, this
does not prohibit any parent or guardian from accompanying
their children.
All trick-or-treating activities are to be concluded by 9 p.m.,
said Cockrell.
Lancaster by the Bay Chamber of Commerce will sponsor
“Kilmarnock Kandy for Kids” from 4 to 9 p.m. October 29, she
said.
“Kandy for Kids” features trick or treating with Main Street
merchants, entertainment and rides on the Triangle Trolley which
will be transformed into the “Boo Bus” just for the occasion, said
Cockrell.

RAPPAHANNOCK RECORD Members of the Rappahannock Colonial Heritage Society,
shown above during the Middlesex Museum’s 2005 living
history program, will return on October 24.
Middlesex Museum
to bring living history
back to the county
The Middlesex County Museum and Historical Society
will host a living history program October 24, bringing to
life a county event from 1771 performed in dramatic style by
living history players.
“The Baptist and the Parson,” to be presented at 2 p.m. at
Urbanna Baptist Church and at 4 p.m. at Antioch Baptist in
Saluda, will highlight the difficulties and tensions between
Middlesex’s established Anglican Church and the arriving
New Light Separate Baptists.
The kernel for this absorbing and educational program is a
letter written from the Urbanna jail in 1771 by itinerant Baptist preacher John Waller describing his arrest and imprisonment for preaching in the county—and thus challenging the
authority of the official church. County historian, author and
journalist Larry Chowning brought this remarkable letter to
the attention of museum board members while researching
the event for the forthcoming book on the history of Middlesex County, and the program began to take shape.
Living history players from the Rappahannock Colonial
Heritage Society of Fredericksburg, dressed in period clothing and representing Waller and some of his followers, will
bring the Baptist story to life. The Rev. Paul Andersen, rector
of Christ Church Parish, Middlesex, will play the part of the
Anglican pastor, the Rev. Samuel Klug, who pastored Christ
Church in 1771. A brief prologue will introduce the drama,
and an epilogue will follow.
Using Waller’s letter as a starting point, county historian
and museum board member Barbara Lovelace researched
historical records of Baptist and Anglican activities and conflicts in Virginia, and especially in Middlesex, in this time
period. She used extensive primary and secondary sources to
write the program script.
“Although the drama includes fictional material, the presentation is built around the preserved letter the Baptist
preacher John Waller wrote from prison, and the challenge
from the Anglican pastor reflects accurately the mindset of
18th-century Virginia clergy as the Baptists began to preach
extensively in Middlesex,” said Lovelace.
She reports that “tensions were high as evangelical preachers, inspired by the Great Awakening, preached a vibrant
gospel and drew thousands away from Virginia’s long-established Anglican Church.
“All present-day Baptist congregations in Middlesex are
the beneficiaries of the work of the early itinerant preachers,”
Lovelace continued. “Although both Baptist and Anglican
(including Episcopalian) churches have grown and prospered
in the fertile soil of American religious freedom enshrined in
our Constitution, it was not always so in 18th-century Virginia. Let us tell you this story!”
Museum president Marilyn South remarked, “As with
these earlier living history programs, memorable characters
brought to life from the county’s past are sure to emerge.”
Words cannot express the appreciation I feel for
the support and friendship shown by the past
and present members of the Rappahannock
Garden Club throughout the past weeks.

God’s love, said Conway.
Do not include used items,
