LocalLife Section B Rappahannock Record Kilmarnock, VA May 12, 2011 www.rrecord.com Entertainment • People • Calendars Transformation taking church parsonage to community center by Lisa Hinton-Valdrighi W hite Stone Baptist Church’s former parsonage, vacant for the past 18 months, should be busy with activity by summer. According to Doug Skinner, the church plans to open the empty house at 549 Chesapeake Drive as a community center, complete with a kitchen, library, teen game room, computer room and playground. “The whole idea is community, not just church,” said Carol Johnson, a member of the seven-person committee which decided to turn the church property into something that could be used by all residents of Lancaster County. After the church’s pastor left in October 2009, the congregation of 200 members discovered that only about 25% of preachers want to live in church-provided housing. With that in mind, the church appointed a committee to “try and come up with a better use of the house,” said Skinner. The committee of Skinner, Johnson, Susan White, Mary Posey, Brenda Pittman, Jim Roth and Stewart Revere in March presented the idea of using it as a community center to the congregation. “And the church got behind it,” said Johnson. “We said we needed this much money and they gave it. The whole church supported it.” The church hopes to offer cooking and sewing classes there, have the facility open for residents to use the computers for job searches, relax with a good book in the library and host a teen night every Friday. With the help and generosity ■ Book event Poet Gordon Evans will read from his book, A Pawn in a Chess Game, from 1 to 3 p.m. Friday, May 13, at the Northumberland Public Library in Heathsville.

His book will be available for purchase, and refreshments will be served. ■ Health fair The First Baptist Church Christian Education Ministry will host a health fair beginning at 10 a.m. Saturday, May 14. There will be free health screenings, Zumba and aerobic instruction, a dental professional on site as well as information on childhood obesity and physical fitness.

Just Gardens Lancaster Community Library Golden Anniversary: Tour is Friday Library continues growth; facility doubles in size and Saturday by Jackie Ferriter The eleventh annual Just Gardens tour will be held Friday and Saturday, May 13 and 14. Five gardens in the Kinsale and Mundy Point area of the Yeocomico River will be open both days from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The gardens include Willow Point at 536 Mill Creek View Lane, Warwick Banks at 1452 Mundy Point Road, Cats Cove at 2273 Mundy Point Road, The Brann Garden on Brook Avenue and Plainview at 494 Plainview Road. Master Gardeners will be on site to answer questions, as will many of the home owners, said publicity chairman CJ Carter. The tour benefits The Haven Shelter and Services. Tours have raised some$111,000 over the last 10 years, providing funds for the construction of the new shelter “House of Hope,” said Carter. The facility can house up to 32 individuals and has been at capacity numerous times, she said. Donations from the Just Gardens tour also have gone to the creation of an endowment to maintain the new facility and ensure quality service to residents in the future. “Were it not for our good friends at Chesapeake Bank and the Bank of Lancaster, we would not be able to give all of our proceeds to The Haven,” said tour organizer Anne Olsen. “Their financial support over the past eleven years has allowed us to defray the cost of ticket and brochure printing.” The community of Kinsale will be supporting the event by offering box lunches for sale at the Kinsale Volunteer Fire Department. The Kinsale Museum will be open during the tour as well. Nearby restaurants include Good Eats and The Driftwood. Vault Fields Vineyards and The Hague Winery also will be open. Tickets may be purchased for $20 at any garden on the days of the tour; or call 333-1099.

Northern Neck Master Gardener Tips by submitted by Marybeth Sisson, Kathy Powell and Bryan Kennedy Gardening for May The reality is there will always be weeds in our gardens, says Master Gardener Linda McConahey. Try to remove them before they go to seed and compound your problem. When you put down mulch, remember to keep it away from the trunks of trees and shrubs so air can circulate near the trunk discouraging diseases, and so that rodents will not feed on the bark. Fertilize and, if needed, prune spring-blooming shrubs, such as azaleas and camellias, after they bloom. Vegetables & Herbs Never use a weed-and-feed fertilizer in your garden. Weed killers affect vegetables as well as weeds and may injure or contaminate your crops. Now is the time to transplant peppers, celery and basil. Direct sow okra, corn and cucumbers. Annuals Put out transplants on a cloudy, calm day, or late afternoon. Set out marigolds, petunias, ageratums and fibrous begonias—all are good border plants. To promote bushy growth, pinch back annuals, such as zinnias, petunias and salvia. Begonias, coleus, ageratum, salvia, and vinca prefer light shade. Impatiens is a good annual for shade. Perennials & Bulbs Pinch back tips of chrysanthemums, Shasta daisies and obedient plant. Wait to remove dying bulb foliage until it’s completely brown. Lawns Cool season grasses: Lawns maintained at the correct height resist disease and weed infestation. Kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue should be kept between two to three inches in height. Mow frequently, removing no more than 1/3 of the blade at each cutting. Do not fertilize in spring. May and June: apply lime at any time according to your soil test. Aerate. Water deeply as necessary. Control broad leaf weeds. Apply crabgrass post-emergence control. Warm season grasses: Apply lime at any time according to your soil test. Aerate. Water deeply as necessary. Control broad leaf weeds. Apply crabgrass post-emergence control. Insect and disease identification and control is critical. Trained and supervised by Virginia Cooperative Extension, Master Gardener volunteers provide the community with research-based gardening and horticultural information.

RAPPAHANNOCK RECORD Concerts-By-The-Bay 2011-12 series tickets offered at a discount Labyrinth Walk slated May 27 Rappahannock Westminster-Canterbury will host its annual Labyrinth Walk from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 27 at 132 Lancaster Drive near Irvington. Participants may proceed on a meditative walk at their own pace. “The labyrinth has been used as a spiritual tool for centuries,” said Rebecca Ford, an RW-C resident and member of the organizing committee. Labyrinths date from pre-Christian days, and labyrinth walks have been used to help people reduce stress, quiet the mind and open the heart, she said. “Walking quietly through the labyrinth in the presence of other people symbolizes the journey everyone takes through life,” explained Ford. “Although you’re walking outside, the real journey takes place inside of you as you have time to reflect on your life and assess your goals.” RW-C has been sponsoring labyrinth walks for a decade, but this year’s walk will be different, she said. “In the past we’ve played recorded music to help establish an atmosphere of serenity for walkers. This year we’ll have live music, which should add immensely to the experience,” said Ford. Members of the RW-C community and other musicians will play. RW-C also will provide guidance on how to go through the labyrinth walk to those not familiar with the activity. Benches will be positioned nearby and water will be available. The outdoor brick labyrinth was constructed by the landscape crew two years ago, and is modeled on the famous labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral, France. Many of the bricks used to construct the labyrinth were purchased to honor or memorialize individuals. Bricks may still be purchased at $100 each, said vice president for development Whiz Harris. Proceeds will benefit the RW-C Health and Wellness Program.

While the Randolphs hold center stage, their exploits bring them together with influential people including Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and James Madison, said Gardner.

By the 18th century, platinum had captured the interest of the scientific community. After 1880, platinum began to supplant silver in settings for diamonds and pearls and, about 1890, settings of pure platinum appeared. The price of platinum soon rose until it surpassed silver and gold. In the early 20th century, jewelers discovered platinum could be worked very finely without losing shape, allowing the fabrication of incredibly delicate and durable jewelry.

The sunset cruise is slated from 6:30 to 9 p.m. June 5 aboard the Chesapeake Breeze, departing from Buzzard’s Point Marina in Reedville, said co-chairman Dean Dort. The cruise will feature a buffet of heavy hors d’oeuvres provided by popular area caterer Cora Tiggle and Bruce Watson of Jacey Winery along with wine donated by Norm Faulkner of Noblett, Ware & Peoples. There will be dancing on deck. Tickets are $50 per person. Bright Beginnings gives children ages 5 to 12 living below the poverty line a The Chesapeake Breeze shopping spree for clothes, coats and shoes they otherwise wouldn’t have, said YMCA development associate Lisa Shivers. In addition to the clothing, each child will receive a backpack full of school supplies, said Shivers. The goal is to help children get off to a good start by giving them the confidence and the tools they need to learn when they walk into their classrooms. “It’s hard for many of us to imagine what it would be like for our children to start school without new clothes, shoes, pens and pencils, but there are those among us in this beautiful Northern Neck who don’t have the ability to buy the most simple things,” said co-chaimran Terrie Dort. “The volunteers have as much, if not more fun than the kids,” said T. Dort. “It is an incredible thing to watch the faces of these kids light up as they pick out a coat or spider man t-shirt or light- Free transportation will be provided to ‘Spring on the Plantation’ event On May 28, George Washington’s Birthplace National Monument will host Spring on the Plantation. Free transportation within the Northern Neck will be offered to the event by NeckRide.org. “Perhaps no other single event that we host has as many colonial living history demonstrations as this one,” said Park Ranger Dick Lahey. Activities will include sheep shearing with hand shears, hearth cooking, blacksmithing, basket making and tobacco planting. Most activities will be demonstrated by skilled artisans, said Lahey. Visitors will have a chance to plant tobacco. “Spring on the Plantation is a vivid and fun way to remind us that George Washington was a product of Virginia Plantations,” said Lahey. “Although the event is always great fun, plantations seldom were.” The majority of the plantation dwellers were enslaved black men, women and children who often suffered from farm scarcity but seldom enjoyed its profits, he said. In 1732, the year of Washington’s birth, the only cash crop in Virginia was tobacco, and plantation owners suffered through bad weather, tobacco horn worms and widely fluctuating prices paid for their crop. In spite of the hardships and conflicts, George Washington fell under the charm of life in the country and was always first a farmer, said Lahey. George Washington’s Birthplace will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Demonstrations will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Park admission is always free. George Washington Birthplace is on Popes Creek off Route 204, 11 miles west of Montross.

A truck-load of freshpicked strawberries will be for sale at the festival, as well as homemade strawberry shortcake, said Anthony. More than 125 crafters and organizations will be represented on the church grounds, inside the fellowship hall and at the adjacent rectory building. Festival highlights also include a bake sale, offering homemade cakes, pies, cookies and bread; a plant sale; and mini services The Garden Club of Mathews will host its 81st annual Flower Show from 1 to 4 p.m. May 20 and 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 21 at Kingston Parish Hall to accommodate an expanded show, including eight artistic design classes, horticultural exhibits and memorial arrangements.

The winner will be announced at the close of the Flower Show. Co-chair Nina Allen urges visitors to “vote for the arrangement that you like best.” The theme is “The Music of Our Lives.” “In addition to the familiar display of arrangements in a niche, this year’s show will have table arrangements and pedestal displays,” said co-chair Martha Anne King. “Each arrangement will have accompanying cards identifying all materials used as well as the inspiration or idea behind the design, its symbolism, or why colors or flowers were selected.” A horticultural educational display will present flowers grown by club members in their own gardens. “LIKE” us on Facebook!

The musical is based on a popular 1998 movie, starring Michael Kane and Steve Martin, by the same title, said director Robin Blake. It’s about two fraudsters, Lawrence Jameson and Freddy Benson, living on the French Riviera. Jameson is a cultivated and suave gentleman who cons rich ladies out of their money, said Blake.

Our family couldn’t be more pleased with the excellent staff and high level of care she receives here. When our mom was younger she lived a very active lifestyle and enjoyed dancing, church and her women’s club, which is why she enjoys being involved in the daily activities at The Lancashire. We feel secure knowing she is respected and well treated. She truly “has it made” at The Lancashire and her happiness means a great deal to us.” www.younglife.org Thank You Virginia Health Services. - Capt.
