Crutchfield is pleased to join the
Fluvanna Education Foundation to recognize
these outstanding area citizens. Education is
the foundation of our region’s future.
Shop Fluvanna, Buy Fluvanna….familiar words of the grass roots movement
that we’ve all seen over the last few years. The sense of community is alive
and well here in our little piece of Central Virginia, whether it be in the
schools, helpi...ng the underprivileged or in our churches. I would hope the
powers that be (Fluvanna County BOS) recognize the wealth of expertise
they have right here in Fluvanna as they consider a PAID EMS staff. I know
that many of us (FC Rescue Squad) would love to get paid, even if only in
a part-time status (or stipend) for work that we love to do and volunteer at
now keeping our community safe. Please members of the Board, look inward before soliciting this to an outside vendor. If you do not, shame on you
and it is again, the County’s loss. – Mike Martin

support continues for this place and makes it a success. – Flucoman
On a Sept. 8 story about Cuppa Joe, a coffeehouse:
Here is one of the friendliest coffee houses I have ever been to. The place is
totally Key West and the coffee is the best.. what can one say. My first trip
to the keys was this year.. So to find this so close to home was a find...Joe is
a great guy with excellent Karma.. so turn your third eye toward this little
gem and enjoy... I did... – Trina Weir the coffee queen...LOL aka desperado,
singer, all around good egg frisky filly....
On a Feb. 7 story about Fluco swimmers and divers advancing to
regionals:
Way to go FLUCO swimmers. With all of this talent and dedication to swimming, one might ask WHY don’t we have a pool at the new high school?
They say it is because swimming does not generate income. However, I ask
does anyone know how much revenue is generated by hosting a State meet?

Fluvanna
Extension hubbub could be over
By Ruthann Carr
Correspondent
Amid much hue and cry from Virginia Cooperative Extension agents
and volunteers throughout the Commonwealth, Virginia Tech officials
have said, “Never mind” about their
proposed plan to restructure.
For now, at least.
On. Jan. 28, Alan L. Grant, dean of
the college of Agriculture and Life Sciences, sent a letter that read, in part,
“…the decision has been made to immediately suspend the work of the VCE
restructuring implementation teams.”
Fluvanna’s Extension Agent John
Thompson said it is true that graphs
show Agency 229 funds are flat. Those
funds are the pot of money that pays
for the Cooperative Extension system
and Agriculture Experiment Station.
“Yet state funding hasn’t dropped
that much actually,” Thompson said.
Nevertheless last year, Grant sent
out an e-mail survey asking questions
about reorganizing in light of budget
deficits.
Virginia Senator Frank Ruff (R-15)
said the survey was full of more theoretical questions than he thought practical.
“I thought the questions were
very questionable,” Ruff said. “(They
seemed) geared to get the response
someone probably wanted.”
Ruff said when Grant rolled out the
proposed restructuring plan last fall,
he felt it focused on the suburban
counties – supplying them with agents
at what looked like the expense of rural counties.
Thompson agreed. He said in the initially proposed restructuring, the Piedmont area, which now is almost fully
staffed, would have lost agents and the
Tidewater and Southside areas would
have gained.
Some suggested that 229 funds earmarked to go to extension offices were
being used to pay administrative salaries at the university.
Ruff said he’s heard those complaints. “There are stories out there
that I believe to be correct,” Ruff said.
“It didn’t make sense what they were
proposing. I told them they needed to
start over from square one.”
In a file marked alumni/legislative
2010,Virginia Tech requests no state
budget cuts noting that since 2008,
200 VCE positions had been cut. It also
states “more than 30,000 volunteers
contribute time valued at $21 million.”

It was those volunteers that rallied
state and local representatives to look
into the plan to restructure.
What seemed like a done deal is no
more.
Both Thompson and Ruff said they
hope there will be better participation from a larger, more diverse group
of people in the new reorganization
plan.
Thompson said besides Fluvanna’s
active 4H clubs – at least 140 participate and that doesn’t include the
summer camp – his office provides
bee-keeping classes, sheep and goat
programs and interaction with Farmer’s Markets.
He stays busy with general troubleshooting – issues with hayfields, lawn
and garden, pastures and livestock –
helping with soil issues and answering
questions about large lot subdivisions.
“I’ve built certain programs and I’d
prefer not to leave,” Thompson said.
“In the end, I’ll do whatever my employer says.”
Thompson said he believes extension agents build a sense of community, that could be lost if services and
people are stretched too thin.
Even though the restructuring plan
has been put on hold, officials at Virginia Tech haven’t said exactly how
they intend to proceed.
Except that in Grant’s January letter he states: “We will be asking our
partners to be further engaged in this
process and assist us in our mandate
from the General Assembly to restructure extension.”

Lake Monticello water rescuers save
dog from icy pond
Maybe Labrador retrievers love water too much.
The Lake Monticello Water Rescue Team on Monday
(Jan. 31) saved a 70 pound Labrador which had fallen
through ice on a large, private pond off Ruritan Lake
Road.
The dog, a Labrador mix, had trotted out onto the ice
on the pond and broken through at a point about 40
feet from shore. The dog was half in the frigid water
with its paws on the ice looking pitiful.
“It was clinging to the edge of the ice,’’ said Greg Zajac,
a member of the rescue team. “It was a cold and nasty
day.”
A passerby had seen the dog and called 911. A dispatcher then alerted the water rescue team which arrived at the scene around 5:30 p.m. just at dusk.
Zajac said two water rescuers prepared to go after the
dog while he and others readied to launch an inflatable
boat if necessary.
Water rescuer Paul Brantley donned a “dry suit’’ and a
harness to which was attached a rope while team member Larry Antonacci served as the tender, paying out the
rope but ready to yank Brantley back if necessary.
Zajac said Brantley both swam through the water and
pulled himself through the ice which he broke with his
elbows as he moved toward the dog. There was some
concern the dog might bite, but he was “too cold and
scared and was happy to see us,’’ said Zajac.
Brantley grabbed the dog and Antonacci pulled him
back to shore with the rope. The rescue went flawlessly.
“It worked out perfectly,’’ said Zajac. “It was a week
after we had our ice training.”
Zajac said a woman who had spotted the dog said she
had been prepared to go after the animal if the water
rescuers hadn’t arrived. “Please, please don’t do that,’’
said Zajac. “That would be highly dangerous. We’re glad
she called us.”
As for the dog, it appeared to be in fine shape and was
taken away by neighbors or its owner. “It was shivering
but seemed okay,’’ said Zajac. – Carlos Santos
Stove fire damages kitchen at house on
Kents Store Way
A stove fire damaged a kitchen at a one-story house at
3428 Kents Store Way near Ferncliff at about 3:20 p.m.
Thursday (Feb. 3).
Firefighters found the stove fire already extinguished,
said Fluvanna Volunteer Fire Chief Mike Brent. But the
Sheriff’s Office
Weekly activity report
fire created “smoke conditions” in the kitchen and attic
area.
“Firefighters investigated for fire extension but the
fire was contained to the kitchen area only,” Brent said. The Red Cross was contacted to provide temporary assistance to the residents due to electrical wiring having
to be repaired before power being turned back on to
the residence, he said. The house is owned by Odessa T.
Parrish, according to county land records.

Gooch asks board to bring funding
priorities to next meeting
After a budget presentation by County Administrator
Jay Scudder at the Wednesday (Feb. 2) Board of Supervisors meeting that showed current and projected deficits, Board of Supervisor Chairman John Gooch (Palmyra) encouraged supervisors to bring ideas on funding
priorities to the next meeting (Feb. 16).
Shaun Kenney, (Columbia) said it is important the
board is clear about and “up front about what are our
funding priorities. Last year we punted. Let’s have the
courage to do things right.” Donald Weaver (Cunningham) encouraged the board to “come up with a (tax)
rate and stick to that budget.”
School Superintendent Gena Keller and Director of Finance Ed Breslauer presented budget considerations to
the Fluvanna County Board of Supervisors at the meeting. While no numbers were discussed, they outlined
funding goals.

A volunteer committee analyzed six months of Emergency Medical Services dispatch data and determined
Fluvanna County residents have to wait too long for
help to arrive, Leonard Bozza, president of Lake Monticello Fire and Rescue told the Fluvanna County Board
of Supervisors on Wednesday (Feb. 2).
Bozza, who presented the committee’s findings, said
in some cases a wait that is too long could prove fatal.
The committee recommended the county augment the
current, all-volunteer staff with one full and one halftime Advanced Life Support position, a half time Basic
Life Support EMT position, create a County Director of
Emergency Services position and buy and equip an Advanced Life Care Response vehicle at an estimated total
cost of about $550,000. Among the suggested ways to
pay for the added cost was to establish a specific tax
line for Fire and EMS services, seek grants and establish
a revenue recovery system. – Ruthann Carr

Drug-sniffing dog aids in arrest
By Joe Ronan
Correspondent
A drug-sniffing dog from the Fluvanna County Sheriff’s Office helped
with the arrest of a man suspected
of possessing drugs last summer,
though the arrest was contested in
court on Jan. 28.
On the night of Aug. 6, Fluvanna
County Sheriff’s Deputy Philip Snoddy was monitoring traffic on Rt. 250
in Troy. Snoddy pulled Thomas Asher Clay over for speeding. Snoddy’s
suspicions were aroused by Clay’s
actions after being pulled over, according to court testimony.
Deputy Sheriff Joshua Greene was
also at the scene with a drug sniffing
dog. The dog signaled the presence of
drugs. A subsequent search revealed
that Clay possessed more than a onehalf ounce of marijuana, according
to court records.
At a hearing conducted in Fluvanna Circuit Court on Jan. 28, Charlottesville defense attorney Michael
Hemenway sought to have evidence
seized from his client at a traffic stop
thrown out. Hemenway argued that
the search was illegal, alleging that
it was based solely on the alert by a
drug sniffing dog.
Assistant Commonwealth Attorney
Francis Terwilliger argued that the
conduct of the defendant after being
pulled over (driving more than 100
feet into a driveway and movements
within the vehicle as the deputy approached) was sufficient probable
cause for the search.
Judge John G. Berry ruled that the
search was legal. The case was set for
a non-jury trial on March 17.
The sheriff’s office deploys a canine unit as part of its patrol within
the county. There is only one such
unit in service, though an additional
dog is being trained.
The additional unit should be “up
and running” in six to eight weeks
according to Greene who is cur-
rently responsible for canine patrol.
The dog is trained for use in narcotics detection, tracking and building
searches. Greene estimates that the
dog currently in service is engaged in
approximately 100 cases per year of
which 75% are narcotics cases.
In other court action:
• An Afton man was convicted for
his third driving while intoxicated
offense. Cesar Gavia-Cruz entered a
guilty plea pursuant to a written plea
agreement. After hearing a presentation of the evidence from Assistant
Commonwealth Attorney Francis
Terwilliger, including evidence of
two prior convictions, Circuit Judge
John G. Berry accepted the guilty
plea. Gavia-Cruz received an active
90 day sentence. His driver’s license
was suspended indefinitely. He must
maintain good behavior for five years
and be subject to two years of supervised probation. Gavia-Cruz must
undergo drug and alcohol education
and counseling.
• A brother and sister from Troy
were convicted of charges of conspiracy to distribute cocaine and
cocaine distribution. Judge Berry accepted guilty pleas to four charges
against Joseph Lucas Hill and two
charges against Shannell Lolita Hill.
Both defendants were placed in custody pending sentencing hearings.
Joseph Hill will be sentenced on April
8. Shannel Hill will be sentenced on
March 31.
• In another case involving drugs,
Ruby Ann Hatcher, a resident of Troy
who was convicted in 2007 of a drug
related charge, appeared in court in
connection with a charge of violating
the good behavior provisions of her
2007 sentencing. Hatcher was convicted of possession of cocaine with
intent to sell in Louisa County on
January 19. The Fluvanna case was
adjourned to April 8. The sentencing
in the Louisa case is scheduled for
April 4.

the predators have moved their kiosks northward into Virginia where
they hope to expand; our legislators
need to follow North Carolina’s lead
in banning this practice.
The Reverend C. Douglas Smith,
Executive Director of the VA Interfaith Center, said numbers are important to legislators: If our lobbying
group of 8 people speaks for Child
Protection legislation, while another
group of 12 speaks against such legislation, legislators will pay attention
to the greater number of petitioners. Jean DeMarco is hoping that more
Grace and Glory members, and more
people of faith everywhere in Virginia, will take part in advocacy sessions
such as this one: speaking up for the
weakest and most vulnerable. As we
do it for the least among us, so we do
it also for Him.

Deborah Nixon, Ken Albright,
Pastor of Grace and Glory Lutheran
Church, Joe Shaver, and Jean DeMarco, chair of Grace and Glory’s Social Justice Small Group, braved the
weather on Jan. 18 and joined nearly
300 other Virginians of various faiths
in Richmond at the Day for All People 2011, “Setting the Tone for Social
Justice.” There they first got a halfhour overview of several issue areas,
in preparation for visits at the State
General Assembly where they spoke
with state legislators.
A critical issue is the millions of
dollars of federal money allocated
to Virginia for unemployment benefits: our state legislators need only
accept it, and this is the last year we
can do so. Records show that only
30% of Virginia’s unemployed receive benefits, meaning 70% of our
unemployed are being denied benefits, thus worsening the impact of the
economy for all of us.
For several years, the Interfaith
Center has been lobbying against
predatory lending practices on payday loans, at interest rates as high as
360%, so prohibitive that most borrowers are trapped
in a cycle of debt
from which they
are unable to extricate themselves. This matter has now
come up for a vote in
the state legislature,

rate at 36%. And

Fluvanna population increased about 28% in past ten years
By Ruthann Carr
Correspondent
Fluvanna population increased about 28% in past ten years
Fluvanna gained 5,644 people in the last ten years, according
to 2010 U.S. Census data released Friday (Feb. 4). Fluvanna is one
of 21 Virginia counties whose population rose 20 percent or more
from the 2000 census.
The census showed Fluvanna County with a population of
25,691. The population in 2000 was 20,047.
The 2010 racial makeup of the county is as follows: white,
20,743; black, 3,938; American Indian, 49; Asian, 147; Hispanic,
760; and other, 268.
Other figures included in the newest figures: There are 19,773
people age 18 and over living in Fluvanna; there are 10,383 total
housing units with 9,449 units occupied and 934 vacant.
While Virginia as a whole did not lose or gain congressional
seats, because of population shifts within the state, districts will
be redrawn. Gov. Bob McDonnell has appointed a committee to
decide how that redistricting will take place.

And Jesus turned, and beheld them
following, and saith unto them, What
seek ye? And they said unto him,
Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), where abideth thou?
(John 1:38 ASV)
When I was young, our family took
in foster children. Though we were
assured their stay would be brief,
these three girls remained with us for
years. Each one was a blessing, and
each had special emotional needs.
One of the girls, whom we’ll call Margaret, was born in Glasgow, the child
of a Scottish woman and an American sailor. Her mother was unable to
care for her, so in her first eight years
Margaret moved to her aunt’s house
in Spain, and then back to Scotland
to live with her grandmother. From
there, she moved to Colorado to live
with another aunt. When that aunt
couldn’t keep her, she sent Margaret
to another yet aunt in Virginia. When
she couldn’t take care of her, Margaret entered the foster care system. By
the time she came to us, Margaret had
been shuffled from place to place so
much that she didn’t know where she
belonged. She didn’t just need a place
where she could stay for awhile, but a
place where she could abide.
When they first met Him, Jesus’ disciples asked, “Where abidest thou?”
“Come and see,” he replied, and they
stayed with him overnight. Some
make the mistake of thinking that just
because Jesus was itinerant, he must
have been homeless. Many Bible
scholars believe (based on this verse
and Mark 2:1, 15) that Jesus actually
owned a home in Capernaum. He invited them to his own home for the
night, and they ended up staying with
Jesus for three years. In fact, when
His Spirit dwelt in their hearts, He remained with them forever, promising
them a heavenly home.
A place to abide…that means much
more than just a place to stay. The
root Greek word for “abide” in John
1:38 is meno, which means “to remain, continue, endure, last, and live.”
Its meaning is more permanent than
“Where are you staying?” This makes
us think of a hotel, but instead Jesus’
followers wanted to know where they
could remain with Jesus forever.
Jesus uses a form of meno ten times
in John 15:1-10 (NASB). “Just as the
Father has loved Me, I have also loved
you; abide in My love.” You abide in
Him when you remain in a state of
prayer and fellowship with His Spirit.
You bear fruit in your life when you
abide in Him the way a grape vine
abides in the branch. You draw nutrients from Jesus just as the grape draws
its sustenance from the sap that flows
through the branch. When Jesus calls
you to become His disciple, He doesn’t
say, “Why don’t you visit for awhile?”
Instead, he says, “Remain with me.
Abide with me.” When you abide in
Him, you know that wherever you go
in life, you’re at home in His love.

Secretariat wins again
Friends of the library
By Bill Jones
By Page H. Gifford
Correspondent
Friends think charity
“Though I speak with the tongue of men and
of angels
And have not charity I am become as sounding brass
Or a tinkling cymbal”
– 1 Corinthians 13:1
When the Friends of the Library met on
Feb. 2 the theme of the meeting was charity.
Among our speakers were representatives
from Meals on Wheels and the Christian
Outreach.
Marvin Moss spoke on behalf of the Historical Society. He wanted to remind us that
a forthcoming book “Virginia’s Palmyra” by
David Bearr is now available for orders. Palmyra became the county seat of Fluvanna
in 1828.This book has many pictures of the
buildings and describes the town’s history.
Paperbacks are $20 and hard copies are $30.
These prices are based on advance orders.
Marvin also announced that the Fluvanna
Historical Society now has 600 members.
Don Morton spoke on behalf of Fluvanna
Meals on Wheels. He began by telling us that
he started out with the Charlottesville Meals
on Wheels and they perceived the need for
it in Fluvanna County and thus started a unit
here.
He told us that one of the hardest jobs had
been establishing a non-profit organization
with the IRS. He said that although Meals on
Wheels is a national organization each unit
is independent. He said that the Fluvanna
unit has six routes, 53 clients and 100 volunteers. The food is prepared by the Jefferson
Board of Aging (JABA) in Charlottesville and
then is individually packaged by volunteers
at Effort Baptist church. The clients are not
aged based but rather are need based. There
is a 12 member board of directors who run
the program. Fund raising is accomplished
through churches and foundations. It costs
approximately $75,000 a year. Deliveries are
made Monday through Friday. Anyone wishing to help should contact them at 105 Crofton Plaza Suite B.
The final speaker was Joyce Watkins who
represented the Christian Outreach. They
started in Buckingham County and they
serve Buckingham, Fluvanna, Cumberland
and Prince Edward counties. They receive
no government funding. They are funded
entirely through their thrift stores. They currently serve 415 families and 90% of their
workers are volunteers. Last year they were
able to help over 400 families pay their rent,
mortgage or electric bill. Most of the families they help are working families who are
victims of fire, abuse and other unexpected
misfortune. In these harsh economic times
many people are finding that their paychecks are not adequate for survival. Christian Outreach has two thrift stores – one is in
Buckingham and the other is in Fluvanna on
Joshua Lane in the CVS shopping mall. Joyce
stressed that they are in dire need of a warehouse to store the donated goods. Anyone
wishing to make a donation should contact
Stacy at 434-589-9552.
We wish to thank Don and Joyce for telling
us about these worthwhile and important
organizations. We hope they can continue to
do their good work.
Our social chairperson Carol Tracy announced that there will be a Patron Appreciation Day on Feb. 14. There will be refreshments and a chance to meet our dedicated
library staff. It will be a great way to celebrate Valentine’s Day so come out and join
the fun.
Our next meeting will be on March 2. The
speaker will be Patricia Castelli, resident historian of Keswick Hall. She is writing a book
about the history of the Villa Crawford built
in 1912 as a private residence. She gives
tours at Keswick Hall and will be bringing
photos that she uses for these tours while
giving us some interesting details about the
Villa.
See you at the library.

J.J. Bevilacqua and Eric Haug. Photo by Page H. Gifford.
By Page H. Gifford
Correspondent
Many Parisians aspire to become chefs
or dabble in haute couture or art but Jean
Jaques Bevilacqua decided on a different
line of work after a career as a professional singer composing his own songs.
With his co-worker Eric Haug, the two
manage a successful home improvement
business known as Your Man Friday.
How long have you lived in the U.S.?
J.J. B: I have lived in the United States
for fifteen years. I have lived at Lake
Monticello since 2001. I am from Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso [formerly Upper Volta until 1961] on the Ivory Coast
of Africa. My father was a French military colonial who was the comptroller
of the hospital there.
I had been married before but my
second wife is American and I met
her forty years ago. She speaks better
French than I do. I had visited her in
the states back in 1972. Anyway, I had
returned to France and years later I
came to the states for a visit and she
visited me in France and eventually we
married.
For awhile I worked at the U.Va.
bookstore but that was boring. I used to
do some handyman work back when I
was living in France and thought about
doing that kind of work again so I started my business in 2003.
What type of home improvements do
you do?
J.J. B: Everything but building. We will
fix anything inside or outside, roofs,
porches, decks, we do painting and remodeling.
You are licensed. What class does
your license cover?
J.J. B: I am licensed and insured and
I have a B and C and I am currently
working on getting an A class license.
Any contractor entering into a contract
of $1,000 or more has to be licensed.
There are those who are unlicensed
and give good handymen and contractors a bad reputation. A lot of people do
not know who they are and where they
come from nor do they check their li-
censes with the Department of Occupational and Professional Regulation
[DPOR] or check for certifications and
references.
What do you do to ensure that
customers are satisfied?
J.J. B: I make sure I stand behind my
work. In the contact I break down into
detail all the labor, materials, parts, so
the customer is aware of what he or
she is paying for. Others may not include the parts or materials and only
give an estimate and contract on labor
but the customer will not know what is
covered because it is not stated in the
contract. Oftentimes, the job is left unfinished and the customer has already
paid for materials or parts and then has
to turn around and get another contractor to finish the job. What I do is
the customer signs the contract agreement then when the work is done; if
the customer is satisfied with the work
then the customer will sign-off on the
contract. If not then we make adjustments.
My mission is to have a happy, satisfied customer. Customers who are happy will come back. We guarantee our
work for two years.
Who helps you in your work?
J.J. B: Eric has been with me for a year
and a half now. But if I need more than
the two of us for a bigger job, then I will
hire others but it is very difficult to find
reliable workers. It has taken me seven
to eight years to find the right people
with the right skill level and there are
only four that are qualified.
Haug: For 20 years I did renovations up
in Long Island, N.Y. But the cost of living was too much up there and I came
down here. I like it here.
Both love what they do and it shows
in their enthusiasm for a job well done.
J.J laughs and said, “If someone wants
me to, I’ll sing French songs for them
too.”

Winter cheerleading squad has a busy schedule
By Duncan Nixon
Correspondent
The winter cheerleading squad at Fluvanna
County High School may be smaller than the fall
squad that is involved in cheerleading competitions, but it is busier. The winter squad consists of
seven athletes who do coordinated cheers on the
sidelines during boys’ and girls’ home basketball
games.
Because of weather problems early in the season, this cheer squad has performed two or three
times a week as the regular basketball seasons
wind down. In contrast, the fall cheerleading squad
performs an array of lifts and tumbling passes, but
does so only once a week, at football games. Of
course, both squads also have their practice sessions during the season to make sure that they are
in sync in their performances.
The winter cheerleading squad does not have designated captains, but the upperclassmen assume a
leadership role. Two seniors have been cheering for
the past two years. They are: Casey Crawford, who
provided the information of this article, and Kristin
Palmateer. Juniors on the cheerleading squad are:
Caitlin Jarvis and Kaila Cavanaugh. Jarvis and Cavanaugh have also been cheering for the past two
years. Rounding out the squad this season are three
freshman: Leigh Ann Perkins, Renee Byers and Raven Bransom.
This year’s winter cheerleading squad was selected by Coach Tracey Howard-Gough based on
pre-season tryouts. This is a completely different
squad from the fall cheerleading squad, as no girls
are on both rosters
The cheerleaders are hoping that their season
will be extended by the possibility of the boys’ basketball team advancing deep into the district and
possibly the regional tournaments. The cheerlead-

ing squad normally does not travel to away games,
and these tournaments will be held, away from
the Shoebox. However, since these are post-season
contests, it is possible that the cheer squad will at-
tend and cheer. The cheerleaders advise that even
if they do not get to attend in an official cheerleading capacity, they will be there to cheer the team
on from the sidelines.
Messier and Rafaly
sign on as soccer stars
Melissa Messier. Photos by Anita Messier.
Two Fluvanna soccer stars signed letters
of intent at a NCAA National Signing Day
ceremony at Fluvanna County High School
Wednesday (Feb. 2).
Melissa Messier will be a Fighting Camel
at Campbell University in Buies Creek, North
Carolina. She is a mid-fielder.
Taylor Rafaly will be a Keydet at the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington. He is a
forward.
Messier and Rafaly will receive scholarships
to play soccer at their respective schools.
Messier played four years of varsity soccer
at Fluvanna, six years for the Soccer Organization of Charlottesville Albemarle (SOCA),
and multiple years on the state Olympic Development Program (ODP) team. She intends
to major in biochemistry and possibly go to
medical school. She is the daughter of Bob
and Anita Messier of Lake Monticello.
Rafaly has played for Fluvanna for five
years, two years on the state ODP team and
one year for the United States Soccer Development Academy (USSDA) Richmond Strikers. Rafaly plans to major in international
business. Rafaly is the son Danny and Michelle Rafaly of Palmyra.

Fluco sports in review
By Colby Goodson
Fluvanna County High School Journalism Program
Wrestling
Another sweat bead hits the mat, another bloody
nose gets cleaned up, another memory is made.
Such is the life of a Fluvanna County High School
wrestler. And life has been good for the team,
which is coming upon the end of a very successful
season.
The team was involved in a tri-meet Jan. 30
where they came out victorious. The Flucos were
pitted against two huge rivals: Western Albemarle
and Greene County. The match came down to Fluvanna and Greene, and was ultimately won when
Fluvanna’s Matt Linblad pinned a Greene County
foe to seal a one-point win in the tournament.
On Feb. 5 the Flucos competed in the district
tournament. Before the event, junior Ben Lacey
said, “I’m ready to go out there and put some guys
on their back.” At the meet, the Fluco team finished
third overall, 8 points behind Louisa. Finishers included Justin Zimmerman and Christian Chirico in
first place in their respective weight classes, and
Logan Walls, Ben Lacey, and Dareon Carrington,
who all finished second in their respective weight
classes. The Flucos now have nine wrestlers going
to the regional tournament at Orange on Feb. 11
and 12.
Swimming
The Fluco swim team has definitely made a big
splash this year and opened many eyes. The team
has already qualified nine people to the state meet
in individual events, and also qualified a 200 medley and 200 boys’ relay team.
The Flucos have five divers who have qualified
for the state meet: Devon Stribling, Brice Campanelli, Yvonne Smith, Nicki Douma, and Melissa
Messier. This is the first time the team has sent so
many people to the dive event. “We have a lot of
depth this year, which makes me very excited for
the future,” said Coach Connie Banton.
The district meet took place Feb. 5 and 6. The
Flucos hosted the swimming portion of the district tournament at Fork Union Military Academy.
The girls’ team placed third overall while the boys
placed fifth. Some of the notable performers were
Riley Scalzo who finished second in the 50 meter
butterfly and the 200 meter freestyle relay team
consisting of Riley Scalzo, Yvonne Smith, Carly
Csapo, and Sierra Durham came in second.
Girls’ basketball
The girls’ basketball team did not start the season
off like they wanted to, but in past weeks they’ve
been on the upswing. The girls played Jan. 31 at
home against Orange and came out victorious
with a 38-37 point win. On Feb. 1 the girls were
pitted against rival Monticello. The game ended in
a nail-biting 29-28 loss.
On Feb. 4 the girls lost to Western, and their last
regular season game was Feb. 8 against Greene.
They move on to districts on Feb. 11. The team has
nothing to hang their heads about no matter what
their record, as the team continues to go out game
after game and fight until the end. “Regardless
of the record, we are looking to finish the season
strong,” said Coach Chad White. If the Flucos continue to play as impressively as they have in the
past weeks, they have a shot at pulling out some
important late season wins.
Boys’ basketball
The clock is running down on another successful season for the boys’ team. This is nothing new
to the Flucos, who have dominated the competition this year. Up to this point, the team has posted a 20-1 record overall.
On Jan. 31, the boys travelled to Orange County
to take on the Hornets in a Jefferson District battle.
The team came out on top with a final score of 7671. YaYa Anderson was the leading scorer for the
Flucos with 21 points, while Josh Hinkle posted a
solid 14 points.
The next night the Flucos stayed at home to
take on the Monticello Mustangs, the only team to
defeat the Flucos this year. Supported by a large
home crowd in the Shoebox, the boys defeated
the Mustangs 74-65. Anderson was the lead scorer
with 24, Hinkle scored 11, and Aric Edmonds added another 9.
On Friday Feb. 4, the team traveled to take on
Western Albemarle. The team pulled out another
win defeating Western 53-38. Once again Anderson was the leading scorer with 16 and Hinkle
added 12.
“What makes me proud is how unselfish the
boys play and how they play as a team,” Coach
Jason Davis said. The teams are scheduled to take
on William Monroe Feb. 8, and the JV team has its
championship game Feb. 10 at Monticello. Varsity
begins district play on Feb. 11 in the Shoebox.
In the mix of all the varsity team’s success, the
JV team is slowly having a good year as well. The
team is 14-3 overall and is currently on an 11-game
winning streak. On Jan. 31, the boys defeated Orange 31-30 and the next night defeated Monticello
58-37. The team has now secured a spot in the Jefferson District JV championship game.

meet held at FUMA. Photos by Fluvanna Sports
Photography. www.fluvannaphotos.com
Indoor track
Putting in countless hours on the track is nothing new to the Fluco boys’ and girls’ indoor track
team. The Flucos have had a very successful season so far which includes three people already
qualifying for the state meet: Chance Parmly
qualified in the pole vault, Greer Brown in the high
jump, and Hannah Meador also in the pole vault.
The Flucos are scheduled to compete in the
district meet on Feb. 9. The team is looking to
send more people to the regional and state meets
and believe districts is their best chance to do so.
The team has been involved in two meets in the
past week. On Thursday Feb.3, the team went up
against Albemarle, Western, Louisa, and FUMA.
The next day the Flucos were involved in another meet in which the girls’ team placed a solid
third with the boys coming in at fifth. Then Aesia
Toliver came in first in the 55 meter dash while
Parmly came in first in the pole vault.
Colby compiled this information with oversight from
coaches Nick Ward and Darren McCauley and with journalism teacher Elizabeth Pellicane.
Senior Robert Peake runs a relay at the Feb. 3
track meet held at FUMA.

Photographers capture the spirit of Old Farm Day

Honorable mention went to Philip
Mayhew for his amusing and expressive Llama.
Worth mentioning in the people category is Jan Altieri’s Hay Ride Driver.
The candid photo is of a hay ride driver
leaning on a big tractor tire and taking a
break. The colors are sharp and vivid.
Many of the children in the sixteen
and under category show promise. Both
Atlee Catlett and Megan O’Dell show
they can handle a camera. O’Dell’s
Plowing and Catlett’s Show Me How It
Works feature good angles and focus
Old Farm Day photo contest winners
again took some picture-perfect subjects at Old Farm Day 2010. The awards
were given to the winners at an award
ceremony on Jan. 28 at the Fluvanna
County Public Library.
Among the winners were photographer O.T. Holen for his Back in the
Day, which won first place in the animal category. This was the only photo
submitted by Holen, featuring a farmer
in overalls talking to children
about old techniques of farming. As always, Holen captures
the spirit Old Farm Day, showing juxtaposition between the
farmer and his plow horse who
were a symbol of the past and
today’s modern child, listening
in on history.
Kenneth Webb’s Mule Team,
which won second in the animal category, was also notable.
His composition is representative of what Old Farm Day is
all about as a farmer pushes
along his team of mules, plowing through the newly turned
red clay. His colors are sharp
and vivid as they are in his
other winner Children Picking

on action. Plowing captures the sweeping landscape with a farmer plowing in
the distance. Both subjects reflect the
focus of Old Farm Day.
All the photographers who participated deserve praise for their efforts
as well. With a variety of skills and
an eye for what they believe makes a
great photo, these photographers truly
captured some Kodak moments at Old
Farm Day.
