Lt. Gov. Ralph S. Northam addresses the Nandua High School graduates at the commencement
last Friday night. Seated (from left) are assistant principal Harold Holmes, Accomack Superintendent Dr. Kregg Cuellar, and principal Brian Patterson. Dr. Northam, who grew up on the
Shore, has a pediatric neurology practice in Norfolk, told the graduates that except for his parents and God, the educators in his life had more influence on him than anybody. He concluded
by asking the graduates to use their cell phones to call their parents, particularly their mothers,
and tell them they love them. (Shore valedictorians are announced on Page 9.)
Zoning Proposals
Spark Opposition
By Ron West
During the public input segment of Tuesday’s
meeting of the Northampton Board of Supervisors, a number of speakers spoke in opposition to
the proposed Zoning Ordinance changes. In addition, three related letters were read into the
record.
A letter from developer Eileen Kirkwood stated
her opposition to changes to setbacks that might
result in the introduction of poultry houses in the
county. Kirkwood claimed the Accomack County
codes related to poultry houses pose a problem to
property owners and potentially harm nearby waterways and aquafarming operations.
A letter from Price Clark opposed the changes for
the same reasons.
Wardtown resident Ken Dufty presented written
as well as verbal comments regarding the proposed
changes, charging that they are a blatant attempt by

Candidate Slates Set for November Elections
By Linda Cicoira
~ In Accomack ~
The November General Election will decide four
hotly contested races for seats on the Accomack
Board of Supervisors, according to tallies taken after
the registration deadline Tuesday.
In District 2, Supervisor Ron S. Wolff, an Independent, is being challenged by Planning Commissioner
Stephen D. “Steve” Corazza, a Republican.
In District 4, Supervisor Kay W. Lewis, an Independent, is opposed by Paul E. Muhly, a political activist who is also running as an Independent. Lewis
has held the post for one four-year term.
District 5, Supervisor John C. “Jack” Gray, a former School Board member and retired educator,
~ In Northampton ~
Election races have crossed the starting line in
Northampton County, where the heats for prosecutor, sheriff and commissioner of the revenue will
come to a finish at the upcoming November General Election. There are also contests for seats on the
Board of Supervisors and School Board.
Commonwealth’s Attorney Bruce D. Jones Jr. of
Franktown is asking for a seventh four-year term.
Garrett Dunham, another Eastville lawyer who lives
in Cape Charles, is the challenger. It is the second
time Jones has had competition.
None of the candidates are running through a political party.
In a last-minute filing, Mark G. Somers of Cape
~ In District ~
State Sen. Lynwood Lewis and Del. Robert (Rob)
S. Bloxom may have to fight to keep their jobs in the
November elections.
Richard Ottinger, a Republican Norfolk lawyer, is
challenging Lewis, a Democrat and Accomac lawyer who
represents the 6th District. Lewis, a former state delegate, won the Senate seat in a special election last year
after Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam left it to take his new post.
Two Shore men will have a rematch for delegate of
the 100th District. Bloxom, the Republican incumbent, is
a Mappsville businessman and son of a long-time state
representative. He beat out Willie C. Randall, a financial
adviser and Democrat who lives in Cape Charles, in
the last election when the post became vacant after
Lewis was elected senator. Randall is trying again.

County Refutes Atlantic Town Center Lawsuit
By Linda Cicoira
The Accomack Board of Supervisors
wants the county circuit court to dismiss an $8 million lawsuit filed last
month against it in connection with
Atlantic Town Center’s (ATC) proposed
development in Wattsville.
Attorney Andrew McRoberts of the
firm Sands Anderson in Richmond,
which represents the board, argued
the complaint “is not sufficient at law,
does not state a cause of action and
fails to state a claim and/or facts upon which the relief demanded can be
granted.”
He further stated that contrary to
the complaint, “state law does not preclude the county from requiring a conditional use permit for a central water
and sewer facility” and that the 11 conditions contained in a permit approved
by the supervisors on April 22, 2014,
“are valid.”
“The conditions … do not exceed the
board’s authority to grant conditional
use permits under suitable regulations
and safeguards,” McRoberts wrote. “The
board’s denial of the petitioners’ rezoning request was based on legitimate
zoning concerns and is fairly debatable.
… The board denied the rezoning after
the Planning Commission expressed
concerns regarding … whether the petitioners had fulfilled their obligations
to commence action on the site in accordance with condition 1 … NASA’s request that the subject property remain
zoned agricultural and rezoning the entire property of 49 acres to develop 432
residential units from Agricultural to
Residential was not a reasonable action
for the county to take at the time.”
McRoberts said the board denied the
request because of the “lack of sufficient
market studies or economic data supporting the need for the development,
… concerns about placing dense residential development in close proximity
to an Aircraft Accident Potential Zone,
NASA’s continued opposition, … concerns that proffers … are not appropriate for a development of this magnitude
and do not afford the county much assurance that is not already provided by
law or regulation, … the lack of a specific
property development plan, site development plan or details … phasing schedule and/or construction schedule/details,
… failure to satisfy the Village Development Section of the Future Land Use
Plan, which anticipates that multi-family housing be in close proximity to goods
and services and provide transportation
alternatives for residents.”
Local residents repeatedly opposed
the project, saying it would cause damage to groundwater and cause traffic
hazards and was not wanted or needed.
The developer and its utility company say the county does not have a
right “to prohibit an Alternative Onsite Sewage System (AOSS)” and that
they may operate the AOSS in accordance with state mandates.
“ATC has and will continue to incur millions of dollars in development
costs,” the suit states. “The progress
of the project is dependent upon both
local and state approvals, the timing
of which are entirely beyond ATC’s
control. It would be manifestly unfair
for ATC to ‘lose’ its residential zoning
and have property revert back to agriculture for delays that are beyond its
control. Such a provision violates the
state constitution. … In order to rezone property, supervisors must follow
procedures including planning commission review, notice and hearing.”
The two sides are scheduled to debate those issues and more at an August hearing.

3 Accomack School Board Members Seek Re-appointment
By Linda Cicoira
Three Accomack School Board members want to continue to serve on the
panel for another four years.
At a meeting of the School Board
Selection Commission Tuesday night,
Audrey Furness of District 2 and Dr.
Ronnie Holden of District 8 spoke
about their dedication and desire to
keep at it. Travis Thornton of District 1
also asked to be kept on the board. All
three, whose terms expire this month,
wrote letters to the commission.
“Thanks for the confidence you have
had in me and your support over these
years,” Furness, a 32-year veteran of
the School Board, said at the public
hearing. “I feel like I have learned a lot
about the education process. We’ve had
a lot of changes … policy, strategies …
I feel like everything that we are made
aware of … we handle pretty well. My
experience will help me to make better
decisions with much greater ease.”
“I can’t say enough of what it means
to me” to serve, Furness continued. “It
does mean commitment … I must be a
Furness
Holden
good role model for our children… I try
to live by the rules … I will do the very
best that I can. I will work as hard as I
can … we can certainly say that we all
work together … for good educational
goals.”
Furness also put in a word for
Thornton, who was attending his son’s
sports event.
“He works real hard with our system,” Furness said of Thornton. “He’s
right on top of it with math skills. Everyone respects him. He does a fine
job.”

trator, wanted to
know what Furness likes most
about serving on
the School Board.
“Being with the
children,” she answered. “I just
came from kindergarten graduation.
Thornton
I truly love it. I do.”
Maury Enright, a former English
teacher at Chincoteague High School,
spoke in favor of Furness. When asked
a question about the school division, he
always tells people to contact her. “The
personal relationship that she can
take on in any situation” is one of her
strong points, he said. “I’ve always appreciated her willingness to be a part
of the community.”
Holden of District 8 said he does the
job to “give back to the community. I
study all the subjects” before attending
a meeting, Holden continued. “My experience, my educational background
… I feel I am a valuable resource.”

Samuel Cooper, clerk of the Accomack Circuit Court, spoke in favor of
Holden. “I proudly stand in support of
the re-appointment … one of the things
that touches me the most … is he is
a product of this school system. Start
here, go anywhere. He’s done that. He
has brought back many experiences
that he’s had. He is very, very sensitive to the needs … of our students. I
do wish that we would continue to support him.”
“Our board has overcome many
hurdles such as economic hardships,
increasing testing standards and the
daunting task of selecting a new division superintendent,” Thornton wrote
to the selection panel. “Unfortunately,
the first superintendent left our division after a shortened tenure to return
to his family. We searched for another
and found a young energetic candidate … Dr. Cuellar brings many new
ideas and a sense of enthusiasm to our
division.”
“The board is actively pursuing the
creation of a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) program in
all of our schools,” Thornton continued.
“This program will help our students
graduate with many college courses
completed and allow them to transfer
in credits towards their degree work.
In some cases, an associate degree will
be obtained with our partner, the Eastern Shore Community College.”
“I believe in public education,” wrote
Thornton. “I believe the Accomack
County School Board has made great
strides in providing an excellent educational opportunity for our 5,000 plus
children. As a parent of two children
who attend … I see first hand the great
education our children receive.”
The commission will make a decision about re-appointing the unopposed members next week.

This week, Willie Randall was
named the official candidate of the
Democratic Party for the 100th House
of Delegates District representing the
Eastern Shore and part of Norfolk.
Said Randall, “I’m pleased to have
the opportunity to put my name forward for election. My business experience, community involvement, and
commitment to service make me the
strongest candidate to represent the
people of the 100th House District in
Richmond.”
Randall has served as chairman of
the Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce, president of the Melfa Rotary
Club, and president of the Eastern
Shore United Way. He also served
two terms on the Northampton County Board of Supervisors. During his
tenure on the board, county debt was
lowered by more than $40 million and
universal pre-K education was instituted for all county residents.
Randall particularly highlighted
the need for expanded Medicaid in
Virginia as a major focus of his campaign, saying, “15,000 hardworking
citizens in this district are unable to
access affordable health care because
the General Assembly refuses to expand Medicaid.”
“I don’t understand how our rep-
Randall
resentatives can choose to let our tax
money go to other states instead of
bringing it back here to ensure every
Virginian has access to the health care
that they need,” Randall added.
He said he is looking forward to
having a conversation with the voters
of the 100th House District over the
next six months as he seeks to earn
their votes.

The number of reported crime on the Eastern

an Independent who represents District 6; Donald L. Hart Jr., of District 8,
who has served for more than 30 years
as a Democrat and is seeking the post

as a Democrat in previous elections
and is listed as an Independent.
Newcomer Billy Joe Tarr of Chincoteague is unopposed in his quest to

~ Supervisors ~
the supervisors to “thumb their noses
at the public.” Dufty said a company
had planned to build a bio-diesel plant
in Exmore and would have gotten approval had he not addressed Town
Council regarding possible risks.
Dufty claimed that the proposed
changes to the county ordinance would
have allowed similar facilities, but after opposition was voiced, those particular changes have been abandoned.
He next spoke of the resulting hazards
should the supervisors permit poultry
operators to construct chicken houses
in the county.
Noting that the railroad could
benefit by bringing waste products
to the county, Dufty said he has
problems with some supervisors
who might benefit personally from
their position as elected leaders. Supervisor Larry LeMond, who recently retired from leadership with the
railroad, made it abundantly clear
to Dufty that at no time had any
company applied to the railroad to
transport such products.
Martina Coker spoke in opposition
to the proposed zoning changes, claiming that the majority of county residents do not wish the code changed.
As did the other speakers before her,
Coker stated her opposition to the possibility of allowing poultry houses in
the county.
Realtor Dave Kabler spoke of his
opposition to changes that would allow
planned unit developments (PUDs),
zoning districts that may vary from
single-family residences to multi-family units. Non-residential PUDs might
include commercial and/or industrial
uses. Kabler noted that PUDs require
public sewage and would increase traffic. He said people in the county do not
want the proposed changes.
Willis Wharf resident Art Schwarzschild addressed the problems he believes would occur as a result of allowing poultry manure to be used on
farms. He said that allowing poultry
houses would not help the economy
and he questioned why the supervisors
were pushing for changes to the current zoning ordinance.
Jay Ford pointed out that while it
is currently legal for poultry houses to
be placed in the county, it is not eco-
nomically viable to do so as the current zoning greatly limits the number needed by nearby poultry processors. The proposed changes, according
to Ford, would increase the number of
houses allowed. He added that poultry
houses create few jobs and the workers
receive low pay.
Mary Miller stated that she opposes
allowing poultry waste to be imported
from Accomack County.
Donna Bozza, the director of Citizens for a Better Eastern Shore
(CBES), questioned why the changes
are being proposed and why the board
wants to allow poultry waste to be
brought into the county.
Exmore resident Linda Nordstrom,
who spoke in opposition to the proposed changes, added that some people
with whom she had spoken said they
felt it was useless to attend the board
sessions as they believe the supervisors are going to do what they want
anyway.
Ultimately, the board voted to extend the deadline for a formal vote on
the proposed zoning changes until Jan.
14, 2016.
The supervisors received a summary report this week from Parks and
Recreation Director Laura Jenrette regarding success of the program over
the past year.
Jenrette spoke of the number of athletic events and programs that the department had undertaken, many of
which occurred at the former middle
school in Machipongo.
Asked by Supervisor Granville Hogg
how much of the building was used in
addition to the gym, Jenrette stated
that the department also used multiple classrooms for activities as well as
for storage. In addition to the facilities
used at the former middle school, the
Parks and Recreation Department offers a number of programs at its facility
at Indian Town Park.
Supervisor Oliver Bennett remarked that the county was making a
lot of use of the building (which also
houses the county Extension Service),
and that it justified the cost of just
over $100,000 to maintain the building annually.
GSB Broadcasting is currently accepting
resumes for future opportunities at
96.5 CTG on the Eastern Shore.
Potential team members should be:
• Extremely Organized
• Customer Service Oriented
• Energetic
• Able to prioritize, multi-task &
keep up with a fast pace
• Flexible
• Resourceful self-starter
A Media, Sales or On-Air background
preferred but not essential.
Resumes may be sent to
[email protected]
The board conducted a public hearing on modifications to fees
charged by the Building Department.
Building Department Director John
Outten explained that the proposed
changes were the result of problems
encountered by building inspectors
who go to a site only to find that the
building or the contractors are not
present or ready for the inspection.
Outten said the situation often delays a scheduled inspection for someone who was ready in some other
part of the county.
The fees of $50 to $100 recommended by the Building Department would
be charged for lifting a stop-work order, conducting a second plan review,
or not being ready for a scheduled inspection. None of the new fees would
affect builders or property owners who
do not cause unnecessary delays for
building inspectors.
The board unanimously approved
the recommended fees.
The next meeting of the supervisors
is slated for June 22 when they will
hold a joint session with the Public
Service Authority.

20 Years Ago, Northampton Made 3 State Finals
epending on the outcome of
today’s soccer game between
Northampton and Galax, the
Jackets could be playing for a state title
tomorrow in Radford.
It would be only the second state
championship in school history, but
20 years ago, Northampton had an extraordinary run of competing in three
state championship contests in little
more than a year.
It all started in the winter of 1995
when the Jacket wrestling team, coached
by Brian Harman, won the Group A
state title at the Salem Civic Center.
“I can remember it like it was yesterday,” said Harman last week, reflecting
on that day two decades ago. “I was very
close to those guys and stay in touch
with many of them. We weren’t together just during the season. I would take
them fishing, and a bunch of us would
get together for roller blading in the
morning before school.”
But there was a lot of work mixed
in with the fun times. Many of the
Northampton wrestlers practiced in
the offseason and attended summer
camps held at colleges.
It all paid off when David Trower
won the state championship in the
171-pound weight class and Andre Elliott and Vance Martin were runners-up.
In fact, the Jackets were so dominant
that Harman called then-principal Paul
Custis after the first day and said he
might want to make the trip out to Salem
because something special might happen
the following day. Custis made the trip.
And then, on the second day of the
competition just prior to the finals,
Harman sat in the motel room and figured out the state championship was
theirs no matter what happened in the
championship matches.
“I did the math and knew we were
going to win, but I never told the guys.”
Although Harman enjoyed several
more top-three finishes at the state
meet, he said he feels the team could
have repeated as state champs in 1996
because they had another strong team.
“Looking back, I think I worked them
too hard. At the time I didn’t think that
was possible. We met at 6 in the morning and worked out for two hours before
breakfast and then going to school, then
we practiced for two and half hours after school. With all the offseason work,
I think now it was too much.
“But those kids gave me everything
they had and did everything I asked of
them. That was a pretty special time,
and I’ve enjoyed keeping up with many
of the wrestlers I coached,” said Harman, who guided the program for almost 30 years and is now retired from
the school system, but still teaching
driver’s education to students.
Several of those wrestlers were on the
football team — including Elliott and
Martin — the next fall when Northampton reached the 1995 state championship game, losing to Powell Valley and
future NFL running back Thomas Jones.
That team was coached by Jimmy
Conrow, the principal at Crisfield High
School the past three years.
“I keep up with a lot of the guys
on Facebook,” said Conrow last week
shortly before the end of school.
“We had a good run during that
time,” recalled Conrow. “The year before the state championship game
we were 8-2 and had Muneer Moore
on the team, who went on to play for
the University of Richmond and then
in the NFL. A lot of players from that
team were on the 12-2 team that went
to the state championship game.”
Northampton was the host school
for the state championship game, but
had to use a neutral site. The game
was scheduled at Nandua, but heavy
rains all week prior to the game made
the field a quagmire.
“Some people asked me to consider
moving the game to Foreman Field,”
said Conrow, “but I thought the Shore
residents deserved a game on this side
of the bay. It didn’t make any difference
in the outcome (a 36-6 loss), but it definitely hurt our outside running game,
which had been a strength all season
with Sam Ames carrying the ball.”
Meanwhile, Powell Valley’s Jones,
who enjoyed an outstanding career at
Virginia and was a solid NFL running
back, kept pushing the pile forward all
day to keep the chains moving.
Conrow said the football team the
following year might have been even
better, going undefeated until a playoff
loss to Bruton ended the season at 10-1.
“In our final game of the regular season, our quarterback, Jeff Wayman, was
hurt and out for the season,” recalled
Conrow. “We had beaten our nemesis,
Central Sussex, that year and were rolling. I would have liked our chances with
Jeff at quarterback.”
That following spring of 1996, the
baseball team also reached the state
championship game, again facing Powell Valley before a loss ended an outstanding 22-3 season.
Chuck Bono, today an insurance
agent for AFLAC who stays in touch
with high school baseball and often
finds himself at a local diamond in the
spring, coached that team after being
an assistant to Conrow in football.
The one name that came up as a
key figure on all three Northampton
state championship finalist teams was
Nick Bravo, who later played football
at Bridgewater and was All-District in
baseball. Ames, the top running back on
the football team, was All-State in baseball, as was Pete Williams.
Wayman caught for that Jacket base-
ball team and made the All-District
team, as did pitcher Tim Brady, shortstop
Jason Sparrow, outfielder Dale Robinson
and utility player Phil Ames.
“Our student-athletes were not
only awesome ball players, but were
fine young men,” said Bono last week.
“Through the years, I suppose the true
success is what we do to help others and
how we give back to the community in
which we live as productive citizens is
the true measure of our success.”
“When I was coming up through
school I watched in awe those Northampton baseball teams in the mid-1970s
coached by Bill Prince that had a great
run with Warner Crumb pitching, but
also a whole of other really good baseball
players. I told my players we could be a
special team like those guys, and they
were all in and worked really hard.”
Like the football team, the Jackets
baseball team also faced adversity in the
state championship game. After winning
a nail biter over Stuarts Draft that ended late in the evening to advance to the
state championship game, they had to
travel immediately to Blacksburg, where
they got a few hours of sleep, and then
the next morning went to Powell Valley
— some 500 miles from Eastville — for
the state title game that afternoon.
“The format and system on the
schedule put us at a huge disadvantage,” said Bono. “I wish we would
have fought a lot harder to the VHSL
(Virginia High School League) for extra time so that our kids were properly
rested. But it was still special because
a lot of kids never get to play in a state
championship game.”
True, but several players 20 years
ago played in two and a few competed
in three state championship contests.
Hopefully, tomorrow there will be a
Northampton soccer team competing
for a state title.

Northampton Falls 3-2 in Regional OT; Plays in States Today
Stories and photos by Bill Sterling
The Northampton soccer team plays
in the 1A state soccer semi-finals against
a 17-1 Galax team today, with the winner meeting the winner of Radford and
Washington & Lee tomorrow for the state
championship at Radford University.
It would be the second state championship ever for Northampton. The first
was captured 20 years ago when the
wrestling team captured a state title.
The Jackets almost had a region
trophy already in hand before heading west, losing on a sudden death kick
with only 37 seconds remaining.
Regardless of the outcomes, both
teams from the East and West Regional
titles would advance to the semi-finals.
Sammy Pineda gave the Jackets a
2-1 lead with 29:37 left in the game
with a strong kick from 25 yards out in
the right corner of the net last Saturday night in the regional championship
against Washington & Lee.
Jesus Maldonado had scored the
first goal of the game in the first half
before Washington & Lee tied it up
with seven minutes left in the half.
Following Pineda’s goal, W&L tied it
up at 2-2 with a short kick with 7:32
remaining in the game.
The two teams remained deadlocked through the end of regulation,
then played two scoreless five-minute
overtime periods before proceeding to
two five-minute sudden death periods.
If a tie still existed, the game would be
decided on penalty kicks.
It appeared that would be the case
until Jacob Daiger found the right side
of the Jacket goal with a left-footed
kick from 10 yards out. The scoreboard
showed only 37 seconds left on the clock.
The score ignited a Washington &
Lee celebration as Northampton players dropped to the ground in disappointment and fatigue.
“It was a well-played game by both
teams,” said Northampton coach John
Gorman. “They stuck to their game
plan. Maybe we will meet them again
in the state championship.”
One W&L player echoed that
thought at the trophy presentation
ceremony when he yelled, “Let’s do it
again for the state title.”
Sammy Pineda scores on this kick to give Northampton a 2-1 lead in the
second half in a regional championship against Washington & Lee last
Saturday. The Generals came back to win the game 3-2 on a score with
37 seconds remaining in the second overtime period.
Chincoteague Suffers Season’s First Defeat in Regional Semi-Finals
Chincoteague’s first defeat came in its
final baseball game of the season. A 12-1
home loss to Lancaster last Friday eliminated the Ponies from the playoffs, but
did not detract from a 20-1 season that
was the best in the school’s history and
gained a large following of local fans.
Sophomore pitcher Trey Fisher, who
had pitched a no hitter and walked
only one in his previous playoff outing,
could not find his control, hitting four
batters in the first three innings and
walking eight. The southpaw was also
hurt by a three errors and a bad-hop
single that scored two runs with two
outs in the second inning.
A grand slam homer by Lancaster’s
Kyle Thomas in the third inning forced
Fisher from the game, trailing 11-0.
Dustin Holloway came on in relief, getting out of the third and holding Lancaster to one run over the final two innings.
The Ponies stranded several runners and finally scored when Collin
Derrickson, who was 3 for 3, came
home on a sacrifice fly by Mason Marshall in the fourth. But the rally ended
when a Pony runner left third base too
early on the next fly ball, resulting in
an inning-ending double play.
Chincoteague coach Will Thompson
said he was proud of how his young
squad came together this season. “We
had a taste of championship baseball,
and we will learn from the loss. It was
a great season for us and we will be
back ready to compete next year.”
Lancaster won the regional finals
6-5 over William Campbell on Monday
and plays in the state semi-finals today in Radford, where the Ponies had
hoped to be this weekend.
At left, Dustin Holloway pitched well in relief in last week’s regional
semi-final loss to Lancaster. Above, Chincoteague’s Ryan Mason tags

Mills makes the call.

Children’s Fishing
Event a Success
It was a fine day for more than 40
youngsters who gathered June 7 at
Morley’s Wharf Fishing Pier on Occohannock Creek.
A number of spot were caught by the
children, all of whom received a fishing
rod and reel and an introduction to angling under the auspices of the Eastern
Shore of Virginia Anglers Club.
After the rigors of baiting hooks and
landing fish, the children enjoyed hot
dogs and soda and a presentation to the
three youngsters who caught the largest
fish. The free event was made possible
by the Virginia Marine Resources Commission, Holt Food Services, Schmidt
Baking Co., Sea Hawk Sports Center,
Utz Quality Foods, Bill and Sheila Wolfram, and Wolff’s Sandwich Shop.
The youngsters who caught the largest fish at the Youth Fishing Day
were (from left): Jay Click, Colin Ford, and Jonathan Young.

Guhde, Willie Richardson, and James Binder fourth row - John Lauer, George Reiger, Mike Lutz William
Truitt, and Ralph Rack.
Cobia is still the big news in fishing,
according to expert Dr. Julie Ball.
Exceptional numbers of early season fish, with many pushing to over
50 pounds, are contributing to an excellent introduction to the fishing season. Although some cobia sight casting experts are complaining that the
fish are somewhat finicky right now,
plenty of encounters are providing
ample opportunity to score with some
nice fish, primarily in the lower Chesapeake Bay.
The red drum bite is still good, as
big reds continue to hit along the surf
of the Eastern Shore barrier islands,
and at buoys 8 and 10 near Nautilus
Shoal, and the Nine-foot Shoal area.
Blue crab is the best bait for bottom
fishing for reds, while bunker and mullet also work well.
Some anglers also are finding decent trolling and top water action as
schools of big red drum cruise off the
oceanfront. A few black drum are still
taking clams near buoy 13 and 16 off
the Shore, but the size of these fish is
somewhat smaller than weeks past.
The flounder bite continues to
evolve, with more anglers reporting
limits of bigger fish from various areas
in lower bay waters. A few flatfish are
taking drifted minnows and cut bait
near the islands of the bridge-tunnel,
and anglers jigging and working live
bait along the pilings and over the
tubes of the bridge-tunnel also are
scoring with scattered fish, with the
first and second islands the most productive lately.
The Cell, and buoy 36A areas are
giving up some decent catches, while
the bayside and seaside areas of Oyster on are still producing the largest
and best numbers for drifters, with a
few doormats mixed in.
Offshore, very good catches of yellowfin tuna, along with some nice
bigeye tuna and larger and abundant
mahi are contributing to a great kickoff of Virginia’s offshore season. Many
boats are returning to the docks early
with limits of fish, with most of the
yellowfin tuna averaging around 40
pounds.

By Linda Cicoira
It’s the absence of skill. It’s the success or failure brought about by chance.
I am about to debate the sometimescontroversial subject called “luck.” And
I don’t have any.
Last week, my very special 36”x24”
mirror leaped from the wall and
smashed against the tile floor, shattering into a million sharp daggers.
This mirror had some kind of funhouse
quality and caused one to appear slimmer. It was my best friend. And you
know without it, I am doomed to seven
years of bad luck.
Compound that against the last
time such ill fate was levied upon me
and add some interest. UGH!
It doesn’t matter that half my ancestors were Irish and were supposed
to have passed down the gene that
blesses me with a wee bit of extra good
fortune. It doesn’t matter one iota. “No
such luck.”
What can I do about it? Sprinkle
salt over my left shoulder? Take a bath
in Epsom salt? Protect my home by
scattering sea salt in every corner of
every room and under every windowsill? Carry a rabbit’s foot?
Yeah, those things sound easy to try.
But according to www.wikihow.com,
I could have just kept all the shards,
ground them to dust and scattered
them in the wind. Or I could have kept
one of the bigger pieces and on the next
full moon, reflected the lunar being
while gazing into it before burying it.
So what do you think I did before
reading all that? “As luck has it,” I did
the one thing that “sealed” my fate. I
threw them all away. It was “the luck
of the draw.”

Chamber Supports Supervisors’
Focus on Education
Dear Editor:
I am writing on behalf of the Board of Directors
of the Eastern Shore Chamber of Commerce. The
chamber has served businesses on the Eastern Shore
for 62 years. Representing more than 450 businesses,
our mission is to “serve, promote and connect businesses and communities of the Eastern Shore of
Virginia.”
The Board of Directors would like to commend
the Northampton County Board of Supervisors
for the resolution it adopted on May 12. We whole
heartedly agree that education should be viewed as
the cornerstone for the county’s economic future.
We encourage the Board of Supervisors to remain
focused on education and to keep all the educational declarations listed below in the forefront of their
decision making.
Resolution Declaring Education as
the Cornerstone for Northampton County’s
Economic Future
WHEREAS, it is well established and recognized that the future of our local, regional and even
global society hinges on an engaged, informed, and
educated youth; and
Well, not so fast. There are some
more things I could try. I could search
for pennies to pick up — if they landed on heads. I could avoid looking at
owls during the day. I could stop sleeping with my feet pointing at the door. I
could bathe in the petals of seven different kinds of flowers and then seal them
in a paper bag and throw them out.
Oh sure, this crazy website says I
could de-clutter my house. Yeah, that’s
going to happen. It seems I’m blocking
positive energies from flowing. And after I do that, I’m supposed to clean the
joint. I’ll get right on that.
Well, wait a minute, I did pick up
the remnants and then vacuum really well so my cats and dog friend
wouldn’t step on anything sharp. That
should count for something! Did I say,
“No such luck?” Yeah, I did.
So where did this superstition about
mirror breaking come from anyway?
It was from those other relatives, the
Romans. They believed that it took
seven years for life to renew itself. “If
the persons looking into the mirror
WHEREAS, it is also recognized that a welleducated and inspired student body is the engine
that drives, and will continue to
drive our local and regional economy; and
WHEREAS, Northampton
County is fortunate to enjoy worldclass teachers who have dedicated
themselves to ensuring that their
students are equipped and prepared
to become productive and beneficial members of society in business, academic and leadership roles; and
WHEREAS, the Northampton County Board
of Supervisors gives great weight to the needs and
desires of the school system as they arise throughout
the year; and
WHEREAS, the Northampton County Board
of Supervisors realizes that teachers and instructors
in the school system need more than financial support to ensure that our students benefit from a fulfilling and rewarding academic experience; and
WHEREAS, there has been a renewed interest by community members, civic organizations,
churches, business leaders, and others to become
more involved in assisting teachers in their important roles as educators; and
WHEREAS, this involvement can and should
include mentoring, tutoring, job shadowing, workforce training programs, and the overall establishment of a working relationship between the community, the school system, and the students.
were not of good health, their image
would break the mirror and the run of
bad luck would continue for the period of seven years, at the end of which
their life would be renewed, their body
would be physically rejuvenated, and
the curse would be ended.”
I don’t think that was a very nice
thing for the Romans to claim. I was
not looking in the mirror when it
broke. Oh, and it seems that those guys
had another way to keep the bad luck
away. “Take all pieces and throw them
into running water” or “if a person who
breaks a mirror is too lazy or too busy,”
just leave the pieces on the floor and
wait seven hours to pick them up. Or
one could light seven white candles on
the first night after breaking the mirror and blow them out at midnight in
one breath while touching a tombstone
with a broken piece.
Whew! I think I’ll just try doing a
good deed and thereby earn some positive karma. After all, blaming luck is
just something sore losers do. I didn’t
say that. The website did. Yippee!
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED
that the Northampton County Board of Supervisors
declares on this date, May 12, 2015,
that education is now and should remain into the future the engine that
drives our local and regional economy; and
BE IT RESOLVED, that the
Northampton County Board of Supervisors supports local initiatives
that ensure that our students will benefit from community support programs aimed at ensuring that
Northampton County students enjoy a rich and fulfilling educational experience.

Why Was Ambulance Driver
Charged in Crash?
Dear Editor:
I was always under the impression that emergency vehicles, with lights and sirens activated, are to be
given the right of way.
I am shocked and appalled that the police charged
the ambulance driver with the recent accident in
Keller. The rescue squad, I am sure, were doing their
utmost to save the cardiac-arrest patient in their
care and get him to the emergency room ASAP.
If we as “responsible” drivers fail to yield to emergency vehicles and impede their progress, forcing
them to obey speed limits, traffic signals and signs,
then I guess we are on our own when our house is
on fire or invaded by criminals or we have a medical
emergency.
The bottom line is: Don’t rely on a quick emergency response. You are on your own, Jack!

What’s With the Changes
Proposed for Northampton?
Dear Editor:
About a decade ago, family members relocated from our rural area in upstate New York to
Northampton County, which they call “the lower
Eastern Shore.” Retirement age, they were seeking
a more serene way of life, and subsequently invested nearly $750,000 in property there, convinced that
the rural and scenic county would meet and exceed
their every need. My husband and I also, creeping up
on the age where we might want to enjoy living in a
milder climate, first visited their new home in 2006.
Afiter a weekend stay, we cocked our heads a bit, and
put a checkmark in the box next to “potential” prospects on our small but growing list.
Our next stay, the following summer, lasted nearly a week. During that time we dug a little deeper
into what the county and incorporated towns offer, with a keen eye on whether the “lower Shore”
would remain a contender. Within several years,
our visits expanded to include more lengthy stays,
burning up our vacation time between Northampton County and the Outer Banks, another possible
retirement site.
The area where we live has seen its share of environmental incursions, from waste incinerators,
coal burning plants, hard rock mines, oil pipelines,
and construction and demolition landfills proposed
for residential areas. Therefore, when looking for
property that would be protected from these body
blows, we looked very carefully at zoning ordinances and comprehensive plans in prospective retirement candidates, as those blueprints reflect the vision the majority of residents hold for the future of
their setting.
The 2009 Comprehensive Plan and its supporting
ordinance, both written with input from residents,
was our jumping off point to help us really understand how solid the footing is on what we perceived
to be a very stable and protective community. The
road map for economic growth in those documents
envisioned public, private, and governmental support for “aquaculture, education, agriculture, tour-
ism, nature-based recreational offerings, small business growth, and the arts.” Perfect. Just what we
wanted.
So by 2013 we started actively looking for real estate in Northampton County. We knew we wanted
open space, low density, rural, and protected. But
after learning in 2014 from our relatives that the
Northampton Board of Supervisors was planning
to rezone the entire county into a more crowded, industrial, commercial and less protected community,
we put our potential investment plans there on hold,
and will not rekindle our consideration until this issue is settled.
Some of the changes that stop us dead in our
tracks are the fact that waste incineration (now
called waste management and resource recovery,
I guess in an attempt to mask the real plans) and
large-scale industrial chicken farms are being welcomed into the county.
Protections for drinking water (the quality of
which we have heard might be less than perfect in areas close to the Atlantic Ocean and Chesapeake Bay)
are being eliminated, with no restrictions on how
much land can be paved over on each parcel. And as
for how taxpayer resources are currently being handled by county government, given a small population
of just over 12,000, that also is mind blowing.
We are hoping that people in the county make the
effort to protect their investments as I am sure we
are not the only ones who will look elsewhere if the
current “leaders” get their way.

Northampton Sheriff’s Dept.,
Rescue Squad Deserve Praise
Dear Editor:
Having worked with the Northampton County
Sheriff’s Department as a magistrate, I learned to
appreciate the members and the service they performed for the county. However, that was years ago.
But recently that appreciation for such a dedicated
group was reinforced.
There has been a break-in and several attempts to
enter other homes on Rogers Drive in Nassawadox.
My home and the home directly across the street
were the latest attempts. I surprised the perpetrator
and was injured in the process.
I was so impressed with the prompt response of
the Northampton County Sheriff ’s deputies and
the manner in which they conducted their investigation that night and the following day. I do not
know all the names of the deputies involved, but
Lt. A.J. Ferebee and Investigator Tara Leckel were
the last two on the scene the following day. Their
thorough questioning and search for clues were so
in-depth that I was surprised. Investigator Leckel
even took molds of the damage to the window sill
caused by a tool so they can compare it with any
future cases.
I want to thank each and every one involved for
their service during my problem. My appreciation also includes Sheriff David Doughty Jr., who came to
my home to pay his respects and to ensure me that
they were working hard on each case to catch the
perpetrator. I was impressed that he did so with his
demanding workload.
I would also like to express my appreciation for
the promptness and professional manner in which
the Nassawadox Rescue Squad handled their part of
my case. They also are a dedicated group who provide a great service to the Shore.
Rex Ingram, Nassawadox
