“I appreciate the recognition –
I think more people should recognize veterans because veterans
very seldom get recognition like this.
And,” he added with a smile,
“the lunch is free – very seldom do
you find anything for free.”

An effective wake-up call serves an important function that hopefully leads to
alert action. Released this week, the synthesis report from the Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate Change (IPCC) is a summary of
the three previous reports and arrived with
a warning attached: Climate change caused
by humans is already happening and will
get much worse (heat waves, extreme precipitation events, warmer and more acidic
oceans and rising sea levels); ecosystems
will be forced to move, colliding with one
another and forcing the extinction of many
plants and animals; to avoid the worst of
these possibly irreversible impacts we must
cut our greenhouse gas emissions substantially by mid-century and aim for “near
zero emissions of CO2 by the end of this
century.” We already have the answers we
need to tackle climate change and make the
switch to renewable energy. The report also
points out that to accomplish these goals
international cooperation is required.
The Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society considers this dire report conservative and warns that the actual effects of
climate change could be even more severe
and stranger than what the IPCC describes.
But what also happened this week? An
election with conservatives claiming victory
over candidates and policies that have responded to these alarms. My favorite examples are three proposed county bans on
oil and gas drilling in California. San Benito
and Mendocino County measures to ban
fracking won overwhelmingly while Santa
Barbara County’s proposed ban on oil drilling failed (with the gas industry spending
$5.8 million to defeat it.)
As proposed for use in the George Washington National Forest in the Shenandoah
Valley, fracking uses steam injection wells
that add chemicals dissolved in millions of
gallons of water and mix with tar formations that are toxic. Ground water aquifers
are at risk and even earthquakes can result
in places like Oklahoma.
The future of planet earth is actually in
our hands and ignoring the warning signs
takes us down a path of blissful self-destruction. Let us act now and put in place clean
energy policies in Virginia with solar panels
on our buildings and wind turbines off our
coast. The wake-up alarm has sounded.

Republicans carry Fluvanna
election
& Holiday
BY CHRISTINA DIMEO GUSEMAN,
CORRESPONDENT
Unofficial election data shows that
Fluvanna County voted solidly Republican on Nov. 4.
Only one precinct – Fork Union –
favored Sen. Mark Warner over challenger
Ed Gillespie, by a slim margin of 1.5 percentage points. The Columbia, Palmyra
and Rivanna Districts and absentee voters
preferred Gillespie by between 10 and 12
percentage points. Fluvanna’s most conservative district, Cunningham, went for
Gillespie by a comfortable 27.5 percentage points. Overall the county selected
Gillespie by 11 percentage points, awarding him 4,477 votes to Warner’s 3,559.
All five of Fluvanna’s precincts plus the
absentee voters preferred Rep. Robert Hurt
over challenger Lawrence Gaughan. Hurt’s
slimmest margin of victory came in Fork
Union, in which voters selected him over
Gaughan by almost 20 percentage points.
His coziest margin of victory occurred in
Cunningham, when voters favored him by
a whopping 43 percentage points. Fluvanna
as a whole selected Hurt by 28 percentage
points, with 5,107 votes to Gaughan’s 2,809.
Interestingly, Columbia’s voting percentages closely mirrored those of Fluvanna County as a whole in both the
Senate and House races. Columbia voters
gave Gillespie 53.24 percent and Warner
43.38 percent of their votes, and Fluvan-

na County voters awarded Gillespie 53.87
percent and Warner 42.83 percent of their
votes. Likewise, Columbia voters gave Hurt
61.22 percent and Gaughan 34.50 percent
of their votes, and Fluvanna County voters
awarded Hurt 61.96 percent and Gaughan
34.08 percent of their votes.
Columbia’s talent at predicting Fluvanna’s preferences fell flat in the sheriff race,
however, where it gave Eric Hess his slimmest margin of victory over Mark Belew
– almost 4 percentage points. Hess’s most
comfortable margin of victory came from
Fork Union, in which he received 70.25
percent of the vote. Overall Fluvanna
voters elected Hess with 59.49 percent, or
4,864 votes, to Belew’s 40.51 percent, or
3,312 votes. Political experts consider that
a landslide victory.
Pleased with the election results, the
chair of the Fluvanna Republican Committee, Carolyn Ley, declared in an email, “The
Photo by Tricia Johnson
Fluvanna Republicans did great [Tuesday]
night!... It was a good night for Fluvanna
and a great night for our country!”
Less enthused was Dick Koepsell, cochair of the Fluvanna County Democrats. “It’s not unexpected but it’s very
disappointing,” he said of the Senate and
House races. “It’s not unexpected because
in the 5th Congressional District we have
a gerrymandered district that was designed specifically to elect a weak Republican and that’s exactly what we’ve gotten
for the third time. We have, unfortunately, politicians on both sides that have
allowed this gerrymandering to become
so ubiquitous, and with the help of computer programs you can design districts
street by street or even house by house,
so you can design districts to keep the incumbent in office, and that’s exactly what
we’ve been doing for these many years.”

To the Citizens of Fluvanna County:
I want to express my heartfelt thanks to the voters of Fluvanna County for electing me
as your Sheriff. I am honored and humbled that you have placed your trust in me.
The support I felt on Election Day was amazing, and I owe it to you.
One of my main initiatives has consistently focused on expanding upon and creating
community partnerships. Collaboration is key to maintaining public trust and support.
During my campaign, I not only met new residents of Fluvanna, but also longtime
residents who thoughtfully shared their ideas and offered their support for new and
continuing efforts to keep our community safe.
With your trust, I will work tirelessly on your behalf to help address any challenges
that affect the safety of our community, and to secure lasting and meaningful
improvements to your quality of life.
Not only am I thankful for your support, but I’m also grateful for all of our community’s
first responders who have chosen to dedicate their lives to public safety. I know that
your work is not always easy, but it is truly appreciated.
I look forward to working with all of you, and again, I thank you for the opportunity
to serve.

Armed forces honored Veterans thanked
with free lunch
at Dixie Memorial
BY CHRISTINA DIMEO GUSEMAN, CORRESPONDENT
More than a thousand
people drive by Dixie
every day, but not very
many pull over to take a
look at the Dixie Memorial that stands on the small
triangle of land where Rt.
15 hits Rt. 6.
Beneath the trees a gray
boulder bears a plaque
that reads, “In honor of the
men and women of Fluvanna County who served
in World Wars I and II.”
The Dixie Memorial
was dreamed up in 1949
by the Fluvanna County
War Memorial Association, just four years after
the end of World War II.
Along with erecting the
monument, the Association’s plan was to beautify Rt. 15 from the Bremo
Bluff Bridge all the way up
to its intersection with Rt.
250 at Zion Crossroads,
thereby creating a memorial highway in honor of
those who served in the
world wars.
In 1950 the Dixie Memorial was dedicated, on a rainy Veterans Day morning. The governor of Virginia, John S. Battle, came to Fluvanna –
crashing his car on the way – to speak at
the ceremony, praising Fluvanna citizens
for remembering those who died in the
wars. Fluvanna’s chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR)
presented a flag to fly over the monument.
But not everything went smoothly with
the Dixie Memorial. Pam Morris and her
family have lived at Carysbrook since
1955, and Morris remembers that for a
good chunk of time the flagpole at the memorial wasn’t even up. “It was down for
several years,” she recalled. “It was in three
different places in the park, but people
kept knocking it down. We kept putting it
back up, but eventually the highway department left it down for 10 years or so.”
In 1970 a World War II veteran and pris-

oner of war named Ben Trammell moved
with his wife, Grace, to the blue house by
the motel at Dixie, Morris said. Both Trammell and Morris would check on the flags
to make sure they were flying and not torn,
periodically replacing them. When the
Trammells died, Morris said, they had their
ashes scattered at the Dixie Memorial.
After Ben Trammell’s death, the Knights
of Columbus became involved with the
Dixie Memorial, said past Grand Knight
and Virginia State Recruitment Chairman
George Kuhlow. The Knights of Columbus
is the world’s largest Catholic fraternal
service organization, and a part of the organization, the Fourth Degree, takes part
in patriotic activities.
The members of the Fourth Degree held
their first ceremony at the Dixie Memorial on Veterans Day 1997, and from there
went on to observe Memorial Day, as
well. In 2000, Kuhlow said, the American
Legion joined with the Knights and now
puts on the Veterans Day ceremony each
year. Over the years other groups, such as
the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), the
DAR, the NAACP, and the Boy Scouts, have
participated in the ceremonies.
Morris and her daughter, Nicole, still
check on the Dixie Memorial in honor of
Morris’s father, a lieutenant colonel with
43 years of service. “We make sure the
wreaths don’t fall down, and we check
on everything,” Morris said. Different
wreaths have been donated by organizations such as the DAR, the VFW, the
American Legion, and the Ruritan Club.
“Erected to honor the dead of World
Wars I and II, [the Dixie Memorial] was
there long before Korea and Vietnam,”
Kuhlow wrote to the Fluvanna Review,
“but as we honor the memorial now we
include all the conflicts that we have
fought and died for.”

The World War II veterans lunch was well attended.
Ryland Watts and Frank Brown were two who celebrated.
Photos by Tricia Johnson
Over 40 people attended the 5th
annual World War II veterans lunch at
the Fork Union Village Restaurant on
Monday (Nov. 10.) In a room decorated
with red, white, and blue banners, balloons, and flowers, the men and women
reminisced about their years of service.
Those who fought in World War II,
Korea, Vietnam, and more recent conflicts were all honored at the event hosted
by Charlotte Glass in honor of her father,
Luther Glass, a World War II veteran.
The lunch, which is free for the veterans and their family members, is funded
through donations. “People just donate
money,” said organizer Charlotte Glass.
“People just know about it. I announce it
in Fork Union Baptist Church and people
hand me money, and they bring money
to Keith and Julie Jones here at the restaurant, too. They have been very generous.”
Luther Glass appreciates his daughter’s
efforts. “It is wonderful,” he said. “I was
in the European theater,” he explained,
“all the way up through into Belgium and
Germany and the Battle of the Bulge. The
snow was as deep as this table. I drove a
two and a half ton truck and the ground
was so packed with snow it was like concrete. The Battle of the Bulge was a rough
time – we lost a lot of men. I knew a lot
of them… I’ll never get over it.”
Henry Pendergrass enjoyed the companionship at the event. “I’m probably
one of the youngest WWII veterans here
today,” he said. “I thought I was going
to Germany as part of a peacekeeping
group but they pulled me out, and sent
me to Indiana to finance school. I was
instructed to do the paperwork for all of
these fellows who were coming home
from the war after six years - and we were
told to hurry up and get them home! We
processed over 1,000 men a day in the
month of December during the real rush
so we could get them home.”
Frank Brown served in World War II
and was a “Montford Marine” – one of
the first African-American men to serve
in the U.S. Marines. He is the recipient of
a Congressional Gold Medal – Congress’s
highest civilian honor. “Everything here
is very, very nice – it always is,” he said.
“I appreciate the recognition – I think
more people should recognize veterans
because veterans very seldom get recognition like this. And,” he added with a
smile, “the lunch is free – very seldom do
you find anything for free.”
“After 70 years, to see that Congressional Gold Medal – to know that everybody
hadn’t forgotten about us…” Brown shook
his head. “They never forgot about us.”

Keller gives supervisors budget peek
BY CHRISTINA DIMEO GUSEMAN, CORRESPONDENT
The Fluvanna County Board of Supervisors got a sneak peek at some of the
schools’ fiscal year 2016 budget concerns at its meeting Wednesday afternoon (Nov. 5).
Superintendent Gena Keller outlined
several preliminary areas of focus for
next year’s budget. Salary adjustments
came first on the list. Though the schools
recently implemented a new salary scale,
Keller wants to “smooth out the bumps”
that still remain on the scale. The intent,
she said, is to remain as competitive as
possible while still being sensitive the
economic and fiscal environment.
Next Keller wants to look at health
insurance. Specifically, she wants to
examine how much it would cost for the
school system to contribute more toward
its employees’ plans. The goal would be
for school employees to receive as much
of a contribution as county employees
receive from Fluvanna County. “We’re
close but we’re not quite there,” she said.
Keller also wants to examine the
matter of additional staff or reorganization, especially in the realm of human resources. With 500 employees, it’s a “real
need,” she said. Lastly, Keller hopes that
the fiscal year 2016 budget can incorpo-

rate some funds for professional development and tuition reimbursement.
Each year since 2012 the schools’
average daily membership (ADM) has
dropped. ADM is a formula used by the
state to determine funding, and is not
the same thing as actual enrollment. The
state’s projected ADM for 2015 is 3,526
students, Keller said, and is 3,481 students for 2016. Current enrollment as of
October is 3,561 students.
“We still see a little bit of decrease in
kindergarten,” Keller said, “and we recognize across the county there are more
opportunities for students to be enrolled
in day schools or pre-K programs, and
sometimes that draws our students out
of their kindergarten classes.”
Using the free and reduced lunch
program as a measure, approximately
30 percent of Fluvanna students are economically disadvantaged. Keller suspects
that the actual percentage is higher, and
that not all eligible families are applying
for the lunch program.
Of all the school divisions in Virginia,
Fluvanna County is one of 22 in which
all schools are fully accredited. “That’s
huge,” Keller said. “That’s a significant
move in the right direction – but not to
marginalize how important that is – it’s
only one measure.”
Supervisor Don Weaver congratulated
Keller and the school system, saying,
“You’ve done that with less resources,
also. I think that’s admirable.”

The Independence, one of Charlottesville’s
newest senior living apartment communities,
has hired a new staff member as concierge. The
new addition to The Independence family is Melissa Anderson-Cox.
Ashley Lam, community manager, said that
the position of concierge is important to the
community. “Our concierges spend much of

make up our family at The Independence. In

Hospice of the Piedmont (HOP) and Hospice
of the Rapidan have completed their merger and
now operate as one consolidated non-profit organization as of Tuesday, Oct. 28.
The overarching mission of this merger is to
provide exceptional patient and family care to
those seriously ill and dying in central Virginia.
Underlying that mission is our fundamental belief that the community-based non-profit model
is the best model for delivering exceptional care
to patients, families, neighborhoods, and communities. The new, combined entity will have a
larger geographic footprint, serving the city of
Charlottesville and the counties of Albemarle,
Augusta, Buckingham, Culpeper, Greene, Fauquier, Fluvanna, Louisa, Madison, Nelson, Orange, and Rappahannock. HOP is now able to
offer the high-quality, compassionate care that
patients and families know and trust to a broader number of patients and their families.
“This is an exciting time for Hospice of the
Piedmont,” said CEO Dr. James Avery, MD. “This
merger allows us to better face the challenges that
will confront all healthcare companies in years to
come. We look forward to enhancing the exceptional care we’re known for, while remaining passionately committed to our promise to provide care
regardless of the patient’s ability to pay.”
The new entity will be headquartered in Charlottesville with additional sites in Culpeper and
Warrenton.

Fluco volleyball team takes the title
BY DUNCAN NIXON,
CORRESPONDENT
The varsity Flying Flucos volleyball team
won the Conference 23 championship
held on Thursday, Nov. 6. (Front row):
Tiffani Shaheen, Maddy Kline, Leslie
Walters, Kylee Dixon and Lee Lee Robbins.
(Back row): Coach Christi Harlowe-Garrett,
Toria Belew, Tyler Haislip, Ashley Cordes,
Bri Harris, Sophie Kershner, Brittney Koczan, Abby Sherman, Haley Dillon,
Kate Stutz and Coach Susan Shields.

The Flying Fluco volleyball team faced off
with John Handley High School from Winchester on Nov. 6 for the Virginia High School
League (VSHL) Conference 23 championship.
Playing on their home court, before an enthusiastic crowd of mostly fellow students, the
Flucos dominated.
The Flucos won the first game easily by a
25-13 margin. They faltered in the second
game, allowing Handley to come from
behind for a 25-22 win. However, Coach
Christina Harlowe-Garrett’s squad buckled
down and won the next two games by
scores of 25-12 and 25-19 to win the match
and the trophy.
There were a number of long impressive
rallies in this match, but in the final analysis the Flucos were the superior team at the
net. Kill shots are what normally decide a
volleyball match and the Flucos were too
strong in this aspect of the game for the
Handley Judges.
In the first game of this match the Flucos
relied on kills and service aces to jump to an
early 8-2 lead, forcing the Handley coach to
call an early timeout. The timeout was ineffective, as senior Maddy Kline blasted home
two kill shots when play resumed to give
the Flucos an insurmountable 10-2 early
lead. The Flucos built their lead to 17-6
and Handley called another timeout. Again,
the timeout was followed by two quick kill
shots by Kline. The Flucos were outscored
by the Judges 7-6 the rest of the way, but
senior Kylee Dixon served the winning
point for the Flucos for a comfortable eight
point win
In game two, the Flucos led in mid-game
by 12-8 and 15-11, with Kline and senior
Leslie Walters unleashing vicious kill shots
14 | FLUVANNA REVIEW | November 13, 2014
along the way. However, Handley rallied
to tie at 16-16. The game was also tied at
20-20. Handley won several long rallies,
and won the game 25-22.
The pressure was on with the match
at one game apiece. With senior Lee Lee
Robbins serving, the Flucos jumped to a 5-0
lead. Robbins had two aces and Kline had
an impressive kill shot. The Flucos were too
strong for the Judges as they pushed the lead
to 10 at 17-7. A mini rally by Handley was
to no avail, as the Flucos recovered to keep
the lead at 10 with the score at 21-11. Junior
Kate Stutz served the final three points for
the Flucos, as they won easily by 25-12.
The situation looked good for the Flucos.
The Judges would have to win two in a row
to take the title, and the Flucos had won two
games by very comfortable margins. Nonetheless, the Judges fought hard in game four.
The game opened with a long back and forth
with neither team able to grab the advantage. The score was tied 6-6, 9-9 and 12-12.
However, at this point the Flucos broke
it open. Kline recorded a kill shot, Dixon
served an ace and Walters scored a vicious
kill. After Handley scored, senior Tiffani
Shaheen scored on a clever dink shot, and
Walters blasted two aces. The Flucos lead
18-13 and never looked back. They finished
the game 7-6 for a 25-19 win. In this match,
Kline recorded an impressive 21 kill shots,
which gives her over 1,000 for her career.
Walters also scored well, with 15 kill shots.
After the game, Coach Harlowe-Garrett
said that this is the Flucos second Conference 23 championship in three years. Conference 23 is made up of schools in the
Central Virginia region with comparable enrollment to Fluvanna High School. In the Jefferson District, the Flucos play schools that
are both larger and smaller in enrollment.
The Flucos now go on to 4A North Regional play, with the first game held on
Tuesday, Nov. 11 at Fluvanna. If they prevail
in the Regional competition they will go on
to compete for the 4A state title.

Rising pop-star Tiffany Houghton gave a free concert to Fluvanna students.

Fluvanna is known for being rural.
After all, there is only a single stop light
in the entire county.
But that doesn’t stop greatness from
coming here. Last Friday, 987 Fluvanna
County High School students and the 7th
grade class at Fluvanna Middle School got
to attend a free concert by 20-year-old
rising pop-star Tiffany Houghton. Houghton performed four songs at each performance followed by a question and answer
with the audience and an opportunity for
students to take photos with her.
What brought her to Fluvanna? After
telling her parents when she was six
that she wanted to become a famous
singer, Houghton has taken great risks
and challenges to acquire her dream. For
example, when she was just 17, Houghton moved to Nashville, Tennessee,
without knowing anyone there or having
any plans of where she would stay.
“The day I moved, my car was broken
into and everything was stolen. My
laptop with all of my songs, my guitar
that I wrote those songs on and those
journals I had been writing in since I
was six,” Houghton recounted on her
website. “I didn’t know anybody, and I
had no idea where I was going to live, but
Now Offering

Introducing

to
Spring
Creek
case in point, my crazy heart wouldn’t let
me give up.”
From there, things got much better. Her
best-known single, High, has over a million
views and Houghton has over 28,000 subscribers on YouTube. “[High] is about the
elevated and irrepressible feeling you get
when you’re so early in a relationship that
he’s still perfect,” said Houghton. “I tend to
have a pretty extreme range of emotions.
This time, the whole world just looked like
sunshine and butterflies – funny what a
little girly infatuation will do,” according to
her website. After the huge success of High,
Houghton moved to Los Angeles where she
then joined the band MKTO on their American Dream Tour.
Since then, Houghton has been performing at school districts like Fluvanna
to build interest in her songs. “She was
really good and had really inspiring
songs,” said Freshman Payton Day after
watching Houghton perform. In addition
to performing at the schools, she also
played at the National Anthem at Fluvanna’s last home football game on Nov. 7.

Students learn carpentry and cooperation
BY TRICIA JOHNSON, CORRESPONDENT
“You can’t accomplish anything worthwhile on your own.
I try to drive this point home
with them - nobody does
anything all by themselves.”
“We’ve got some people who want us to
build some fences; there is a memorial
down at Carysbrook for somebody, and
the county wants us to build some kind
of sun shelter at the community garden
at Pleasant Grove,” he added. All of those
projects will require donations of materials and money.
The most important part of these projects for Chirico is the life lessons the students learn. “You can’t accomplish anything worthwhile on your own. I try to
drive this point home with them - nobody
does anything all by themselves.”
The Fluvanna High School Carpentry Class
has two picnic tables, made by students, for
sale at Fluvanna Ace Hardware as a fundraiser. Anyone interested in making a monetary donation (or a donation of goods) to
the program should contact Paul Chirico at
[email protected]
Students Quint Crouch, Colton Brown and Nathaniel Fisher worked together.

Fluvanna County High School’s Paul
Chirico is a man with a mission. He is
dedicated to teaching students in his carpentry classes new skills that can support
them through a lifetime – but he needs
this community’s help. “Through federal
grants we can buy all kinds of tools,” said
Chirico, “but we can’t spend the money
on consumables like lumber, glue, nails,
and sandpaper,” he explained.
While the community has been generous so far in its donations, still more
is needed to complete the projects his
Carpentry II students have been working
on – an air-drying shed for lumber, and
a solar-powered lumber kiln. “You can’t
believe the cooperation and the contribution and the donations I have gotten from
area businesses to do this,” said Chirico. “I
don’t think there has been a person that
I have asked that has said no,” he added.
Donations are truly investments in the
lives of the students who learn more than
just carpentry skills in Chirico’s class. “I’m
very excited to be building the pole barn
for air drying,” said student Colton Brown
as he climbed down a ladder from the roof
of the drying shed. “This has been a great
thing for most of us to do… working together on a project has been good. There
are people I can work with easier than I
can others, and I have learned how to deal
with working with different people this
year.”
Several of the students, busy hammering boards into a frame, pointed to Nathaniel Fisher as the head of his part of
the project. Fisher, who has had some carpentry experience in the past, said he has
refined skills he already had in this class,
but added he has “learned a little bit about
leadership.” Fisher plans to apply to the
Naval Academy.
Mike Duke is glad that when he graduates, he will be leaving the two structures
he worked on for future classes to make
use of. “I hope they appreciate it, and treat
it with a little respect. I hope it is some-
To advertise call: 434.207.0222
thing useful for the next class, that will
help them out a little bit,” he said.
Alan Wise admits he took this class in
part because he thought it would be fun.
“It is more work than fun,” he conceded
with a laugh, “but that’s a good thing.” He
added that he thinks the skills he is learning will be very beneficial in the future,
and that he could possibly choose a career
in the building trades.
Chirico has taken his Carpentry II class
to the next level. While in Carpentry I students build individual projects that teach
them basic skills; he wanted to accomplish something more with his advanced
students. “I thought, if we are going to
build something, why don’t we build
something that has purpose,” he said.
“So I said we’re sitting in the middle of a
logging community, why don’t we harvest
our own logs, get our own lumber, dry it
and use it in our workshop.” These projects are a result of that brainstorm. “It will
be solar powered,” Chirico said of the kiln,
“Virginia Tech is coming in and they are
actually going to give us the equipment –
the solar-powered fans and materials to
go with them.”
Local logging companies have donated
logs, and Jim Hart from Brookside Farm
Portable Sawmill Service donated two
days of his time to mill the wood into
boards for the students to use. The lumber
that was milled has already been meticulously stacked in the drying shed the students built.
Although the drying shed project has
been completed, and construction on
the solar-powered kiln is well underway,
Chirico’s list of future projects continues
to grow. “Next year we are going to build
a timber frame building for the agriculture
classes to use as a potting shed,” he said.
“Mr. Strickler wants a place to store some
of his marching band stuff. The school
has an outdoor amphitheater, and we will
probably build a bridge down there for
them. We’ve been pretty busy,” he said.

Photographer Tricia Johnson took these photos of people who have heartfelt
ties to the town of Columbia. They posed in places that meant the most to them.
Their words reflect how they see Fluvanna’s sleepy little river town.
Irene Newton, Longest Resident of Columbia, at the organ
at Memorial Baptist Church.
“I have played the organ at Memorial
Baptist Church for over 50 years. It is a
beautiful place, and it means the world
to me. I grew up in Columbia – we
moved here when I was six-years-old
and I have lived here ever since - longer
than any other person.”
A stained glass window illuminated the newly renovated
164-year-old St. John’s Episcopal
Church overseen by the Reverend Richard Singleton.
“I do love the diversity not only of color
but of the kind of income the people have
– poor and rich alike – it is a very special
place. They are very socially alive and are
aware in a social service direction. It is a
lovely place to be. I am a lucky guy.”
Emma Jean Wells who has
lived just outside of Columbia
for 52 years, chose to pose at
the door of Columbia Baptist
Church - the church where she
raised her children.
“This is the church I raised my children in.
I miss being in the choir… I guess it is
about time for me to relax. I was president
of the missionary society for years at this
church. They would go to houses, pray
with people, take them some money or
food or go clean homes for people that
were sick. I like to visit people.”

Shaun Kenney posed in
the family cemetery of the
Wakeham family, who built
Columbia’s Catholic church and
school in the 19th century.
“The Wakeham family gave a great
deal to Columbia; a parish, a school,
their own example, not to mention
two children to the religious life.
The Wakehams offer a rare example
of what one family can do for their
community when they put down
roots, and, even if largely forgotten today, there’s a great deal that
would not be if the Wakeham family
had decided to live their lives for
themselves. The cemetery is a quiet
place, a small monument to the
great things ordinary people can do
and accomplish every day.”
Tanya Wood – mother of three
living in Columbia – looked out
from the porch of her rented
home with her children and
one young friend.
“What I like about Columbia is just the
people down here. It just means it’s
my kids’ home so it means a lot. I like
the people in the community. They are
friendly and look out for each other.”
Janet Williams, born and raised
in Columbia in the 1930s, stood
at the foot of “Monkey Hill” –
a spot where all the children
played.
“We dug big holes and we dug caves and
we dug slides and it was just a great big
sand pile that’s what it was. I am sure
we looked like monkeys climbing all
over it. We would come here and play
all morning long and then go home for
lunch. I have no idea how many people
played on this hill but I would say all of
the children that grew up in Columbia
played on this hill. And there were 25
that were my age. It was a fun place and I
daresay anybody who grew up here, if you
mention Monkey Hill, you will get a smile.”
Anthony “Dickie” Pollois and
Iris Pollois sat in front of their
first home – the Old Columbia
Post Office - in Columbia.
“It’s the first home that I am going to pay
for. I am 61. Now I’m disabled – I need
a place to lay my head,” said Dickie. Iris
added “It just fits us perfect. You know
the first modern bateau was built here
in the yard.” Dickie agreed,”It’s got a lot
of history here. I cut the bars off of the
window, and now I have to scrape the
windows and paint them.”

Lindsay Nolting, a landscape artist
who has lived just outside of Columbia for 40 years, admired the James
River she has painted so often.
“I painted the river so often -sometimes from
the bridge and sometimes from the riverbank,
and I had the great privilege once of painting
it from Point of Fork. The sounds from the town
coming across the river are generalized so it is as
though it must always have been.
And then there was the lovely thing that is
within my experience of building the first twentieth century batteau replica and going with it
down to Richmond in May of 1984. And it is
wonderful that it has been taken up and down
the river and it is an annual function. So again
the river is tying us together…
Painting it I always feel as though the reflections
in the river are being washed down river… fast
or slow… it’s just silly, but I do.”
Emily Buggs, born in Point of Fork in
1918, held a photograph of the Old
Columbia School, a Catholic mission
school for African-Americans.
“We used to have to walk to school across
the river across the aqueduct in the rain or
the snow because they didn’t have no bus
for us to ride. We always had field day and
we wrapped the maypole. Each child had
on little paper dresses, each child had on different colors – it was so cute the little paper
dresses - and that is the color ribbon we used.
At the end of the school year Miss Lydia used
to decorate the school with honeysuckle.
My favorite hymn is ‘If it wasn’t for the Lord,
tell me what would I do … I couldn’t do
anything if it wasn’t for the Lord.’ Lord, Lord,
Lord we had some times at that school. Some
of the children were good and some was bad.”
Jeff Haislip, the Fluvanna Commonwealth’s Attorney,
associated Memorial Baptist Church with family.
“Memorial Baptist was my first church home and my family started
every Sunday there. From church we went to my great-grandmother
on my mother’s side of the family’s house for lunch, and then to my
father’s parents’ house for supper. Sunday always meant family time to
me and it still does. My family attends Calvary Chapel Fluvanna now
but when I think about Memorial Baptist Church, I think about family.”
John Hammond - mayor of Columbia - and his family feel a
strong connection to the James River.
“I think the river was what drew me here. I thought it was a pretty a town right on
the river I had driven through here many, many times and when we saw the house
was for sale luckily it was right over the river on the bluffs… I think it has been
the benefit the river has benefited the town it is why the town is here – but at the
same time it has been its downfall – we know the history of the floods and how
it has shaped the lower part of the flood plain - I said to someone the river sounds
like traffic – and they said no, traffic sounds like a river.”
Kerry Murphy Hammond, Town Councilor originally didn’t
want to buy the house but...
“… then I looked at his face looking at the river from where our house is and I
said yes… you have to respect the river for its beauty and its fury. We are very
lucky where our house is situated in the winter we have views of the river, but
all year you can hear it - especially after storms -so we can sit out back and
just listen to the sound of the river.” (Also pictured, John and Kerry’s daughter
Delaney Hammond).
The Holland sisters – Julia Davidson, Mary Jane Sheridan, and Sophia Pryor – visited the location where
their father’s store once stood. Julia Davidson held the
auction bill dated 1962, the year when E. F. Holland’s
store was sold and dismantled.
“When we were girls, Columbia had four stores, and their own fire
department… an ice plant and a watch maker… they were supposed to have their own law… the town had a fire truck and once our
uncle went to get the fire truck and there wasn’t any gas in it – he was
running back down the street with the gas can in his hand – that was
when the Baptist Church caught on fire. They used the fire truck to wash
the mud out of the stores after the floods.
This was our father’s store – it was up on stilts, so it survived 14 floods. Our
father was F. H. Holland who had the store and was the pulp wood dealer. “

Barbara Jackson, a member of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, is
deeply affected by the shrine to St. Mary Katharine Drexel.
“I am a 4th generation Catholic here in this church – my great-grandmother
converted once the church was given to the black people here in Columbia –
that is the main connection – the other is that my mother was born and raised
here in Columbia – she was born at Camp Wakeham, and her mother and
father were caretakers for the priests that came out here.
I was here for the ceremony (when the shrine was installed), and there is a picture
somewhere of me there. In fact, I went to Rome for the installation of her as St.
Katharine – and spent six or seven days in Rome. I was in St. Peter’s Square.
She founded that school and history has it that St. Katharine actually walked on these
grounds here and that she visited the church. She has special meaning for me. She
founded the schools for the Indians and the blacks. That is where my mother went –
to Miss Lydia’s school, and then she went to St. Emma’s for high school.”
Diane Murdock, former clerk of Columbia and local historian, pointed in front of a
street sign that bears the name of Columbia’s founder.
“I chose this spot because of David Ross – I have done a lot of historical documentation of Columbia. I was
the town clerk when I lived here in the 1970s.
It was his land and he and several others gifted the land and laid out the town and established half acre lots
in 1788. I had owned Gum Creek – that was the first Ross house; then we bought a second Ross house – and
I went to work for the Department of Historical Resources and found all of these other Ross houses up and
down the James River. Then I went to work for the Virginia Historical Society where there is the one and only
Ross letter book, which I transcribed.”

Fluco sports in review
BY LINDSAY PRICE AND TYLER MARSHALL,
FLUVANNA COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL JOURNALISM PROGRAM
Lindsay and Tyler compiled this information with the
oversight of journalism teacher Elizabeth Pellicane
Football
The Flucos faced Western Albemarle on Nov. 7 for their final game of the
season. The final score ended up being
a 48-15 loss for Fluvanna, but this game
was so much more than just another
game for the Flucos. Despite a season
of tough losses, the athletes have not let
that define them. Asked about his most
memorable moment as a Fluco, senior
Macen Dahl said, “It wasn’t a moment –
it was the simple fact that the coaching
staff gave me the best experience I could
possibly receive, and even though the
records didn’t show it, they did a phenomenal job shaping a group of boys
into young men their parents would be
proud of.”

The
game
against Western
was not only
was the last
game of the
season, but it was
also Senior Night.
Senior and firstyear player Jake
Mooney had a stellar game,
not only stepping in as quarterback but also scoring his first-ever
career touchdown against the Warriors. “It felt great knowing all the hard
work you put in paid off,” said Mooney.
The Flucos are losing a large group of
seniors and will be a very young team
next year, but some players are already
looking ahead. “My expectations are just
to have the guys work as hard as possible
in the off-season. I will do the same to
make improvements next year,” said sole
underclassman captain Gavin Patrick.
Overall, the Flucos wrapped up the 2014
football season with a record of 9-1.
The Lady Flucos cross country team
competed in their regional meet on
Nov.6 at John Handley High School
where they placed 5th overall. This
was an outstanding result for the team.
Freshman Kristen Cabrera was the
first to come in for the Flucos, placing
17th overall. Looking forward to States,
Cabrera said, “I’m hoping the team goes
out there even stronger than last week
to beat some of our close competition.
We’re going to try to make the last race
the best race.” The Flucos will have their
top seven runners advancing on to States,
including Cabrera, Hayley Kline, Haley
Kennedy, Saige Haney, Sarah Spitler,
Peyton Olinger, and Devon Burger.
As for the boys’ team, which also competed in the 4A regional meet, Travis
Moe placed 6th overall, earning an AllRegion Honor. Moe will be the only
Fluco boy advancing to the State meet at
Great Meadows in The Plains on Nov.15.
Speech Team
Competing in their first tournament
on Nov.8 at Midlothian High School, the
Fluco speech team placed 3rd out of 20
total teams. Seniors Casey Johnson and
Erin Edgerton took third place in their
duo performance. “I was really happy
with the outcome considering I only
started learning my lines a couple days
before the competition,” said Johnson.
Junior Jonathan Corbin took first in the
extemporaneous category and Kara
Kline placed 6th in Dramatic Performance. These Flucos will be advancing
to the State tournament.
Volleyball
The Varsity volleyball team faced Harrisonburg on Nov. 5 in the Conference 23
semi-finals. The Lady Flucos easily won
the game by a score of 3-0 to advance to
the finals. “We always still need to keep
our focus even if the team may be not the
most competitive,” said senior Captain
Maddy Kline about the game. The following day the Flucos were in the Conference championship game hosting John
Handley. The Flucos played with skill
and determination to beat John Handley
3-1. The team was all smiles as they accepted the Conference trophy and posed
for pictures.
Without a doubt, it has been an impressive season for the team as they
have blown away the competition with
a record of 23-0 and important wins
against other strong teams such as
Western and Albemarle. The Flucos are
looking forward to the next phase of
their season and are optimistic about the
outcome, although they know the road
ahead won’t be easy. “Even though we
have had such a successful season, it’s
still important to work out and improve
each day,” said senior Kylee Dixon.
The seniors are making the most of
their final high school season and are
enjoying every minute. “I am grateful for
the season we’ve been blessed with. We
have put in a ton of work this year and
pushed ourselves and it’s great to see it
paying off. I’m not ready for my senior
season to be over with, so I’m looking
forward to seeing how far we can go. We
try our hardest at all times,” said Dixon.
The Lady Flucos have their eyes set
on the challenges ahead and what they
must do to get to States. “We need to
just keep winning and then I believe we
can make it to States with no trouble as
long as we keep performing at our best,”
said Kline. The Lady Flucos continued
their journey on Nov. 11, hosting the first
round of Regionals against James Wood
High School. Check back next week for a
recap of the results.
Ace Team
The Ace Team had a meet at Louisa on
Nov. 5 and came away with their heads
high with a record of 1-2. Although they
lost to Western and Albemarle, they defeated Charlottesville, a particularly sweet

Sanctuary helps wildlife
BY PAGE H. GIFFORD, CORRESPONDENT
Wildlife enthusiasts filled the Terrace
Room at the Lake Monticello Clubhouse recently to hear Jessie Cole, a licensed wildlife rehabilitator from the Rockfish Wildlife
Sanctuary in Nelson County.
Cole brought with her two animals saved
by the sanctuary which serve as educational
ambassadors. Quinn, a tiny Screech owl, sits
on his perch, wide eyed, slowly blinking at
onlookers while his counterpart, a possum
named Esperanza, chews on a grape. Esperanza is missing a tail and Quinn had a broken
wing, which now hinders him flying silently
so he can stalk prey. Cole pointed out that
because of their previous injuries they cannot
be released back into the wild and will live out
their lives at the sanctuary.
“Last year we treated 625 animals and this
year it has risen to 740 so far,” said Cole. “The
numbers keep increasing.” She adds that
primarily they deal with young orphaned
animals whose mother was killed by the side
of the road such as baby raccoons, skunks,
coyotes and birds. Birds have to be fed round
the clock every 20-30 minutes and Cole admitted it was a challenge to feed 40 baby
grackles.
Diet is important and people should be
aware there is state law prohibiting the feeding
of wildlife and that feeding bread to birds can
cause metabolic bone disease.
Cole shared many heartwarming stories
including one about beavers swimming
around in her tub. Swimming time is crucial
for beavers. “They like to be together. Beavers
can die of loneliness,” she said. She adds that
beavers stay in rehab for two years before
being released and can learn by instinct to live
in the wild.
A non-profit founded in 2004, it is staffed
by licensed wildlife rehabilitators like Cole,
student interns and other trained volunteers.
Those who are familiar with wildlife rehab
in the area know about the Wildlife Center of
Virginia in Waynesboro, which deals with the
medical while RWS deals with rehab. RWS
provides help and information for the public
when they find an injured or orphaned wild
animal. They care for the animals that are
injured or orphaned until they released back
into the wild. RWS also provides many educational opportunities about habitats and the
needs of native wildlife.
“Urban development has increased and
reduced the number of wildlife habitats
and Virginia’s native animals are in need
of care,” said Cole. She then quoted John
Muir, who said, “When we tug at a single
thing in nature, we find it attached to the
rest of the world.”
RWS is always in need of monetary donations, as wells as goods and services.
“More and more children are getting involved. We had a group of children raise
$125 selling lemonade and donate the entire
amount to us and another group of children
gave us their entire allowance.”
For more information, visit RWS at http://
rockfishwildlifesanctuary.org/ or call them at

achievement since it had been
some time since that had happened. “We avoided answering
early for the game which helped
us win, but did it more often in
the 2nd and 3rd game. I think
we did well and are noticing
improvement showing that we
beat Charlottesville,” said Team
Captain Dalton Shifflett.
Western came away on top
of the event. “Western is our
toughest challenge, but at our
best I think we’re capable of
beating any team and we just
need to keep working hard
and hopefully everything will
show,” said Shifflett.
The Flucos like to prepare
themselves mentally before
matches. “We’ll have practices
during the week and review a
lot. We work hard and have fun
while doing it,” said sophomore
Harrison Lee. In a sport which
is basically like a competition
version of the TV show Jeopardy, many students like to
specialize in a particular field
of study. “I do literature and
history because I love to read
and it’s very easy for me to remember things, so it’s a perfect
fit,” said Lee. With the team
working very hard and not
backing down, they are very
excited for their next match –
which is Nov. 12 at Albemarle –
and are hungry for success.
