Five years ago – Re-Love It’s business owners Michael Oaks and Kim Patterson – fell in love, got engaged, and moved to Purcellville. As we consolidated our households, we realized we had many unique items that would be of interest to a consignment shop; but there were no consignment stores in this area. Because both of us had backgrounds in retail, and had both been small business owners previously, the proverbial light bulb went off. We opened on 21st Street in Purcellville with 1,200 sq ft, 4 clothing racks and 1 bookcase for home goods. We have grown to almost 10,000 sq. ft., of clothes for women, men, kids and teens as well as aisles full of shelves of home goods, antiques and furniture. With the success of our Purcellville store comes the obvious choice of opening a second location.

Tuesday - Saturday 10-5 20 East Main Street 540-955-8155 News from Berryville Main Street And Its Members 3 Walking with Giraffes By: Christina Kraybill (Editor’s Note: Christina and her husband are the proprietors of My Neighbor and Me on E. Main Street– “My husband and I flew to Kenya to visit my brother-in-law, James, who works as a pilot for Samaritan’s Purse (he flies supplies into refugee camps.) This is my first trip to Africa & I look forward to many new experiences”) I took my first trip to Africa in January to visit my husband’s brother in Kenya. It was a memorable trip of long flights, traffic jams in Nairobi, afternoon chai tea with old and new friends, visiting the Maasai Mara Wildlife Reserve, a trip to Tanzania, and exploring my brother-in-law’s home area surrounding Eldoret. On our first day in Eldoret, James wanted to drive us to two famous sites- Kerio View and the Kruger Farm. Kerio View is located in Iten; the city of world-class long-distance runners and high altitude training. The Hotel is perched at the edge of the Kerio Valley escarpment with stunning views and the premier African site for paragliders. After a tasty lunch, we headed to the Kruger farm to meet a friend of James. We didn’t know until we arrived on the farm complex that we were entering one of the largest grain farms in Kenya with 1000 acres set aside for the endangered Rothschild’s Giraffe. After visiting with Yani Kruger, Luke was assigned to take us on a walking tour of the farm. We walked on the dirt lane past the house, silos, out-buildings, and headed into the fields. We welcomed the relief from the sun while passing through a eucalyptus tree forest only to come to a pond where four giraffes were drinking. The sight took my breath away. After gazing several minutes in quiet, Luke led us along the pond towards the edge of a field. From this vantage point, we counted ten giraffes including a 2 month-old baby giraffe. Unbeknownst to us, two giraffes were feeding behind us…one decided to come for a closer look. We had the privilege to walk with him. Editor: If you have not already, check out their new, larger location on Main Street! Additionally she is now hosting Berryville Rhythm Jam the second Tuesday of every month. FRANKFORD FARM www.berryvillemainstreet.org 4 News from Berryville Main Street And Its Members “Sightings from the South” Roseville Veterinary Clinic (Millwood, Boyce, Waterloo & White Post that is..) Roseville Veterinary Clinic was established by Dr. Eric Myer in 1973, at its present location at 26 South Greenway Avenue (Route 340) in Boyce. Dr. Myer had previously been practicing from a building on his adjacent farm, from which he took the name Roseville. Dr. Thomas Leahy joined the practice in 1983 as a new graduate from the University Of Tennessee College Of Veterinary Medicine. At that time, the majority of the work was done on farm animals and horses. To serve the large farming community, Drs. Myer and Leahy would travel from farm to farm around the greater Clarke County area and into West Virginia, both north to Jefferson County and west to Hampshire County. The pet portion of the practice was mainly established to serve the needs of the local community and supplement the farm animal work. The original hospital had a large area set aside to accommodate the farm animal work the area needed. There was room for bovine and equine surgery, a padded surgical recovery stall for horses, and a heated pad embedded in the floor for hospitalizing young calves and lambs. Over the years, with the area’s changing demographics and under the guidance of Dr. Leahy, the pet portion of the practice continued to expand. It became necessary to enlarge the facility and reconfigure the large animal section to accommodate and honor our growing small animal patient list. The expansion also provided room for an ever-growing range of the latest medical diagnostic technologies in order to provide the level of medicine that Dr. Leahy wanted to offer. We are pleased that today we are able to offer an exceptional variety of state of the art medicine from not just one facility, but two. Opened in 1989, our sister hospital, Plaza Pet Clinic, is conveniently located on Senseny Road, in the Greenwood section of Frederick County. Together, the 9 veterinarians and 20 staff members of the two hospitals are available to give you and your pets the best of veterinary care. Each facility offers a complete in-house laboratory for prompt stat results and a referral lab for more complex testing. Also we provide the newest digital radiographic equipment in the area, state of the art ultrasound technology, and high resolution digital dental radiography as well. Our doctors stand ready to help you with your pet’s medical, reproductive, behavioral, and nutritional needs, as well as offering acupuncture and laser therapy for less invasive medical procedures for your pets. We at Roseville Veterinary Clinic and Plaza Pet Clinic would like to invite you to come and visit us and experience the caring attitude and quality service that a small town veterinary hospital can provide. www.berryvillemainstreet.org 5 News from Berryville Main Street And Its Members Downtown Space Available 30 West Main St. 3272 sq. ft. $1600./mo.

Sharon Beasley Strickland B erryville is a beautiful small town located in the Shenandoah Valley and it has secrets. I already wrote several columns that indicate many of the town’s buildings are haunted. I wrote the Civil War stories. I wrote about a speakeasy. Now, I write about our town’s big secret. It is this—the town is loaded with churches. Yep, we are a population of a wee bit over 4,300 and we are simply loaded with churches. That is a good thing. I belong to Saint Bridget’s of Ireland and I love my church. If you are not Catholic, don’t worry for you can pick from the following: Methodist: Crum’s United Methodist; Marvin Chapel United Methodist; Mount Carmel United Methodist ; Providence Chapel United Methodist; Duncan Memorial United Methodist Our town welcomes the new Pastor at Duncan Memorial. We know he will fall in love with our town.

At Thanksgiving and Christmas the charity is abundant and hopefully no one in town goes to sleep on either holiday without a full tummy and a gift. I love the involvement of these church members in our schools, our many organizations, our sports programs, and with helping the elderly and the poor. Thank you!
