Germanna Foundation Chief Operating Officer to leave Staff Report The Germanna Foundation Board of Trustees announced Tuesday that Steve Hein, Chief Operating Officer of the Foundation since Sept. 1, 2014, will be leaving to pursue other opportunities in the fall.

“Steve quickly became well-known in Orange and Culpeper Counties and among the region’s other historic preservation organizations and business community as a proHein fessional, competent and likeable leader,” said J. Marc Wheat, President of the Germanna Foundation. “He is a real team player, and a champion for our members

and the historic preservation community at large. The Germanna Foundation has certainly benefited from his experience and leadership.

We are very sorry to see Steve leave, and wish him all the best.”

Germanna Foundation Trustee Bruce Davis of Fredericksburg echoed Marc’s comments adding, “Steve’s efforts on behalf of Germanna during the Rappahannock River Region’s Community Give online fundraising event last May resulted in the Germanna Foundation being in the top five for total money raised out of the 180 nonprofit organizations participating. He has helped place the Foundation on a path toward continued growth and financial stability.”

During his tenure, Steve worked to raise funds and supervise Foun-

dation efforts that included hiring a full-time staff archaeologist, stabilizing the previously excavated areas of the Fort Germanna/Enchanted Castle archaeology site, and restarting archaeological exploration of the site to search for the boundaries of the 1714 fort. He helped manage the Foundation’s ongoing transition to an international base of support for this important historic landmark.

At the Germanna Foundation’s Salubria, located in Culpeper County, Steve continued the Foundation’s preservation and restoration efforts, including the search for Lady Spotswood’s burial site thought to be located on the property. He also worked to expand public access to the Foundation’s Siegen Forest property and trails, and enhanced working relationships with other

historic preservation and community organizations. He deepened the Foundation’s reputation with local, regional and State officials, including the Germanna Community College, Orange County, the University of Mary Washington, Virginia Commonwealth University, and the Virginia Department of Historic Resources.

“It has been a privilege to serve the Germanna Foundation, our international network of Germanna descendants, members and other supporters, our distant cousins and members in Germany, and our regional neighbors in this position. I hope my efforts to expand the interest in this important piece of history right here in our own backyard will continue to support the Foundation’s efforts for many years,” said Steve.

At UVA, we believe every student should have the opportunity to play scholastic sports.

In my years as editor of the Culpeper Times, while we’ve listed events and covered fund raisers, I hadn’t actually been into the building that houses Culpeper’s Free Clinic on Laurel Street near the hospital.

I wanted to go over there and visit with their new Executive Director

Chris Miller as I’ve known her primarily in her capacity with Aging Together.

She’s wearing a new hat now and I thought it would be interesting to see how that is going.

With just about six weeks in, she’s clearly found a path with a very good heart. True to her nature, her focus was not on herself but the staff that she is becoming to know better and better each day.

“They’re amazing...what they do here is incredible,” she told me of a facility that prides itself on being the primary health care source for hundreds in Culpeper.

A great fan of Susan Keller, the director at the Culpeper County Library, Chris envisions the clinic garnering the same reputation...a place where many connections are made and fostered.

We chatted about what a great resource the library is...that it is so much more than books...that it has become a community center of sorts where people can come and meet, share resources, learn about other services in the community and usually leave not only better informed but inspired.

Started in 1997 by a grassroots effort of local physicians and concerned citizens, Culpeper’s Free Clinic is growing and blossoming as it approaches 20 years.

Since the first of the year, 345 people have been served with 55 new patients. Chris wants that number to grow. There are still a lot of misconceptions out there about just who can walk in the door and be helped with their healthcare needs.

There are three criteria: No insurance, live in Culpeper and meet poverty income guidelines. ➤ See Clinic, Page 5

➤ Clinic, from Page 4 So you can be employed and still receive health care. It just depends on how much you make or how little.

Several doctors, dentists, optometrists, therapists and nurses volunteer their time at the clinic but there are nurses and nurse practitioners on staff who can prescribe medications, give out referrals for other services, and take care of screenings and perform examinations.

“I want the free clinic to be that kind of place...that place in the community where people know that they can come for good health care,” Chris told me as her face radiated with excitement, energy and enthusiasm for a professional home that is clearly personal for her. All of her work with Aging Together pointed her in a direction where she could work directly with the caregivers... those on the front lines of health care. She’s there now and loving it.

“It’s good to challenge yourself with something new,” she told me as she explained how they are part of the Culpeper Wellness Foundation and also get some state funding as well as donations. The clinic’s proximity to the hospital and emergency care is key to their success. Lab work is done there.

It hasn’t always been there but tucked in one corner of the parking lot is a small garden. Chris told me that it is lovingly taken care of by one of their volunteers Brenda Sheffield. She smiled telling me about conversations she’d heard recently in the office about beets. Coming in with fresh beets from the garden, Brenda shared cooking tips with patients that were there. Patients left with small bags of beets. It’s this kind of community connecting that Chris looks to grow and nurture.

I thought I had soaked up about all the good energy that is possible for an afternoon until I decided to chat with some of the staff.

It was an afternoon where no patients would be coming through the doors so we were relaxed.

I don’t want to get too emotional or syrupy sweet but these women are, as Chris said, remarkable. Cheery, positive, caring, upbeat and so committed to what they are doing. What a credit to the Culpeper community to have this talented, skilled and compassionate group of women

BEHIND THE BADGE This detective easily grapples with challenges of police work The mild mannered, bespeckled Sean Sumey, concludes the interview by leaning back in his chair and confessing: “I was a pro-wrestler.” His professional name: “Devin Devine.”

His signature move: “the piledriver.” And, according to Sumey, a friend with whom he wrestled with and against during his 12-year career from high school to three years ago, is now an announcer with WWE Monday Night Raw. An interview that twisted and turned from his college work as a radio announcer, to being a mortuary science student, to his deep Christian faith ended with a finale as surprising as any pro wrestling match.

And, Detective Sumey is never one to leave an open door uncrossed.

“I don’t let limitations stop me,” he explains. If there is a path before him, as it were, Sumey takes it.

He left home near Pittsburgh, PA to take on a job as a telemarketer in Laurel, MD leaving family and friends behind to try something new.

The money was good, according to

Detective Sean Sumey Age: 32 Married: 1 daughter Hobbies: family activities, reading, music.

Sumey, the experiences eye-opening, but after several years he knew it wasn’t a career.

“We were always taught to respect the police,” he said and so he followed a childhood interest and went to work for the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office in 2008. Another door opened. He worked the jail.

While in the control room he noticed a pretrial services worker. Separated by glass and concrete he could not communicate with her – but he wanted to. A year later he found himself in the same room with the same pretrial services worker and he asked her name. Another door.

She later became his wife.

From 2010 to 2013 Sumey worked for the Wheeling, West Virginia Police Department after his stint in Loudoun. At the same time, while

still wrestling, Sumey worked part time for the McMechen Police Department.

Culpeper called in 2013 and Sumey crossed another threshold to join the department. In the three years he’s worked in Culpeper he has found a professional home that he “loves.”

Detective Sumey works all manner of criminal complaints but he spends most of his time working with Child Protective Services to include forensic interviews with children who are victims. In addition he spends his efforts working investigations that involve internet crimes against children.

“I try to remember that when I am doing this (internet stings) I am standing in the shoes of an innocent child. Hopefully I am taking the place of a real child who otherwise would become a victim.”

His efforts online have brought more than one child predator to justice. He takes satisfaction in that.

Sumey’s varied background and

interests mesh well with the Culpeper Police Department’s philosophy of community policing, according to Chief Chris Jenkins.

“Sean’s unique personality and many talents make him a great asset to our department,” Jenkins said. Of particular note to Jenkins is Sumey’s “calm demeanor and professionalism.”

USINESSES TO KNOW IN & AROUND OUR COMMUNITY

Looking for a home or office? It’s all about new beginnings

By Anita Sherman STAFF WRITER

Born in Kentucky, for the past 30 years, Loni Colvin has called Fauquier County home. Celebrating a 16-year anniversary in August, Colvin is at the helm of a thriving real estate business. Horizon Real Estate, Inc. includes offices in Warrenton and Front Royal. In addition, there is Horizon Chest Bay brokerage in Hartville, Horizon Real Estate School in Warrenton and Sunshine Title and Settlement in Front Royal.

“We have a lot to offer,” says Colvin of her staff and agents. “I am blessed... they are the best...it’s awesome.”

Earning her real estate license in 2000 from Moseley Real Estate Schools, instructing others to do the same is another facet of her business that Colvin enjoys. A part of Moseley, Horizon Real Estate School offers classes for those seeking a new business career or those needing a refresher done in a comfortable and inviting setting.

Colvin’s bubbly personality, positive attitude and uplifting spirit no doubt reflect the character of her company. It’s roots are tied to her faith and family.

“When we were coming up with a image...I wanted sunshine and a sense of new beginnings,” says Colvin of their logo which has a sunburst and wavy colorful lines that speak to a horizon where earth and sky meet and discoveries await.

It’s that sense of new adventure that Colvin wants to capture in their approach to the buying, selling and renting of real estate be it residential or commercial.

“We have all ages...but whether it’s a young couple looking for their first home or a retiring couple looking for a different place...you are starting fresh and it’s a new beginning,” says Colvin. “We’re not a big corporate company...we’re smaller and more like family.”

And it’s family that speaks to her heart.

With pictures of her husband, chil-

dren, grandchildren and two Yorkies smiling at her from all directions in her office, Colvin beams with pride in her family, their support and the combined love that fuels her energy and generates creativity in her business.

Active in her church, Colvin is also president of the Jeffersonton Community Center. Her mission is to stay as involved in her community as possible. To that end you may see their 14-foot moving van available to assist whether it’s passing out items at community events or helping with the logistics of a move.

“I want to give back because of all the support that we have received over the years,” says Colvin who also enjoys reading, sewing and jewelry making.

A woman of faith, Colvin smiles confidently that her life and any challenges she faces are in the hands of a power higher than her own. That knowledge is empowering.

“I try to flow easily,” she laughs and states unabashedly that she and her husband start and end each day pray-

ing together.

One of Colvin’s next ventures is to open an office in Culpeper, an area that she believes is ripe for another real estate group.

“I love hearing the stories,” smiles Colvin. “Everyone has them... whether it’s from our students in the school and where they are with their lives or where they want to be... their dreams...it’s all about new beginnings, new horizons...and that’s where we want to help.”

At first glance, one would think that Master Police Officers Brittany Jenkins and Mike Grant have little in common.

As Culpeper Police Chief Chris Jenkins pointed out, Jenkins is a seemingly always smiling, petite blonde and Grant is a hulking figure that epitomizes the popular conception of a police officer.

But underneath, it’s almost a mirror image, Jenkins said.

Jenkins is as tough as they come and Grant is a big teddy bear who umpires baseball in his spare time.

Their paths were also extremely different to their latest promotion to Master Police Officer, which was recognized during a dual ceremony Aug. 26.

Proving doubters wrong Jenkins knew at the young age of 5 that she wanted to be in law enforcement. She wanted to help her community by serving and protecting and after she moved to Culpeper in 2006 she quickly started on her path. By 2009, she was sworn in as an officer at the Culpeper Police Department.

But what should have been a joyous occasion was rocked by a

snide comment by a fellow officer.

“You don’t belong here,” she was told.

Now every morning, she looks in the mirror and uses that phrase to push her to be a better public servant.

“Initially, it was heart-breaking because this was something I had wanted to do for a very long time,” Jenkins said. “I said ‘I’m going to take this as an opportunity to prove him wrong.’ Ever since, everyday I’ve made it a point to be a stronger officer because of those words and to prove to the world that women are as important as men are. I think we belong in this field more now than ever.”

Now a detective, she has used her influence to become more involved in the community, especially with youth. She can routinely be seen in public with younger members of the community and she is involved with the Law Explorer program.

A mother of Heston, 5, and Mason, 2, she knows the importance of a strong female figure in children’s lives.

“Also one of my specialties as a detective is child crime, so I know they need a mentor, they need someone to look up to,” she said. ➤ See Promotion, Page 9

➤ Promotion, from Page 8 “They need someone to take them to the grocery store when they need food. It’s crucial to me.”

Chief Jenkins said the examples given of her servitude just scratch the surface of what she has accomplished.

“She is a shining example of our agency,” the chief said.

And almost on cue, Jenkins’ son Mason leaped into his mom’s arms, her face lighting up with joy.

“I said a long time ago I wanted to make a difference in my community and I feel that’s the best way to do it, is starting with our little people up,” Jenkins said.

Family first For Grant, his career has hinged on the fact that he has a supportive family at home.

Pointing out his wife Donna and his son, Grant thanked them for always being there during a career that began in 1981.

“There were many nights I didn’t show up for dinner or I was late for dinner,” Grant said. “Donna never complained.”

For more than 30 years, Grant has helped pass his knowledge down to younger police officers which is one of his greatest joys.

“I’ve always tried to help the younger officers,” Grant said.

“They come to me with different

questions, they want my opinion on different things and I enjoy doing that. My son is a prime example, he’s a police officer and he had to learn from somewhere. I try to help where I can, if it helps the department that’s what it’s about.”

Grant said that law enforcement has changed tremendously since 1981, becoming more technical. One aspect that hasn’t changed has been the support of the community, which he says has backed the agency “110 percent.”

“To work for a community that will back you is tremendous,” Grant said.

Chief Jenkins joked that he has said that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but Grant has proved him wrong.

Grant is just as committed to the community as his Master Police Officer counterpart Brittany Jenkins, having served as an umpire, as a Cub Scout Leader, a member of Salem New Baptist Church and having helped with 4-H. “I’ve been with the Little League for a little over 30 years,” Grant said. “I’ve been fortunate with umpiring, I’ve umped in the Southern Region and I’m hoping for the World Series (some day).”

The most important aspect though, comes back to his family - especially his wife. Donna Grant has battled cancer for the past few

Cutting Edge years, but she sat proudly on Friday, helping pin her husband who has sometimes been late to dinner, but has always been on time when it comes to serving the community.

“It means everything to me,” Grant said, his eyes welling with

tears. “This job is tough and if you don’t have a supporting family it becomes tougher. It takes a very special person to be a police officer’s wife and Donna is that person. She’s supported me my whole career.”

VIEWS LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Sheriff appreciative for Culpeper’s support Over the past months we have seen a constant barrage of accusations against law enforcement from the media, politicians and certain activists in this country. Sadly, some officers and deputies have died as a result of this ugly atmosphere.

For the deputies in the Culpeper

County Sheriff’s Office this has been sometimes disheartening to see.

However, having said that, I must also say that deputies in the Sheriff’s Office have been overwhelmed by the support shown to them from Culpeper residents.

Our office has been filled with cards and food from individuals, churches and businesses. It is hard to express how important each and every one of those cards and expressions of support have meant to me and to my deputies.

I hesitate to mention anyone or

any organization separately for fear of leaving someone out—so I won’t. But I wanted to let the community know how much I appreciate their support -- thank you.

And on behalf of the deputies at the Culpeper County Sheriff’s Office, I thank Culpeper residents for their outpouring of goodwill towards law enforcement. It is a good thing to see.

Scott H. Jenkins Culpeper County Sheriff

Culpeper was a hospital town during the Civil War CULPEPER CURRENTS

In the spring of 1861, at the beginning of the Civil War, the town of Culpeper was the headquarters for the Confederate Provisional Army.

Under Colonel Philip St. George Cocke, a camp was established north of town on the land of Rev. Cumberland George. The camp was named “Camp Henry” for former governor Patrick Henry. Here the units that had been organized in the county, as well as some from more distant areas, gathered to train. As more and more soldiers came and went from the camps, illnesses began to spread, including an outbreak of measles.

The focus turned to care of the sick, and a hospital was established at Camp Henry. The town, then commonly known as “Culpeper Courthouse,” also began to receive, via train, the ill from the camps located near Manassas. Soon every available building in Culpeper was housing sick soldiers.

On July 21 the Battle of Manassas occurred, and the army doctors and their local civilian help began treating all manner of wounded soldiers. The injured and ill continued to arrive throughout the summer. To make room in the hospitals for new cases, those soldiers considered to be on the road to recovery were hosted at homes throughout the county.

On September 8, 1861, a correspondent for the South Carolina newspaper The Charleston Courier toured Culpeper’s Confederate hospitals.

Later that month his anonymous article was published containing descriptions of the hospital sites. Some excerpts: Culpeper has been used as a hospital town for the Army of the Potomac, since about the middle of April. Within these four months and a half, there have been received and treated about five thousand patients, of whom the total number of

During the Civil War, 620,000 soldiers lost their lives. deaths has been only one hundred and ninety-two.

The first arrivals from Manassas were so comparatively few, that the sick could be easily accommodated in the large public buildings and private residences of the citizens; but as the summer wore on bringing its train of disorder, and the prospects of a battle increased, it became necessary to erect other structures, where the sufferers could be accommodated in greater numbers, and yet enjoy the comforts of a hospital existence. This was accordingly done, and today I had the satisfaction of walking through a file, or rather files of scores of men confined from various causes, in these quarters. That you may not think the buildings have been carelessly thrown together, or that they are mere barns or sheds, put up for the moment as if for the reception of so many cattle, follow me in a brief tour through one department. We leave, say, either of the principal hotels, of which there are two. A walk of five minutes brings us to what is known as the Smith’s Institute, a large old fashioned family mansion, which of late years has been used as a Seminary.

Reserving our visit inside for a few moments we pass on to various wards a dozen rods beyond. Your first impression is that you are approaching a series of huge ten pin alleys, the structures being some two hundred and fifty feet in length and twenty-five or thirty in breadth. I am bound to say, however, that these are mere eye measurements, and may be far from the fact. The exterior is neatly white washed, and at intervals of every ten or fifteen feet, instead of a window of glass, you see a portion of the clapboarding, the size of an ordinary window, swinging on its axis, thus admitting at will both light and air. At stated distances along the roof are further chimney-like openings for affording still more perfect ventilation. Even before you enter, you are struck with the air of neatness, which pervades the neighborhood. The ground has been swept as clean as a floor. Not a particle of garbage, or waste of any kind, is in sight; but there is strewn a handful of chloride of lime. Entering the long avenue like apartment, these agreeable sensations are reproduced and strengthened. The atmosphere is ➤ See Civil War, Page 16

➤ Civil War, from Page 15 as pure and sweet as if not one of fifteen or twenty suppurating wounds, to say nothing of fever sores and diseases were giving forth a horrible odor. The floor is almost as clean as the top of a dining table, except where, here and there, by some bedside is sprinkled the usual disinfectant or laid the inevitable spit box. In most instances this has been unsuccessfully shot at by the feeble patient. I may remark that many of the convalescents are by no means as good markers with their tobacco juice as with their muskets.

The interior exhibits the plain rafters which constitute the roof and the uprights which form the sides of the house, but the deficiency, if such it can be called, is rather pleasing to the eye than otherwise, for it conveys an idea of airiness, lightness and summer comfort

which would not be experienced with plastered walls and ceilings.

The Smith’s Institute to which we have now retraced our steps, is for the most part occupied by the nurses, attendants and convalescents. Some of the rooms are likewise used to store the sheets, under-clothing, medicines and delicacies which are received from various sources.

Smith’s Institute, more formally known as the Piedmont Academy, was a boy’s school operated by Edward Smith and Magill Smith.

It was situated in two connected houses located along current day Wine Street . The two hotels mentioned by the writer were the Waverley Hotel beyond the railroad tracks at the end of Davis Street, and the Virginia Hotel on Main Street.

of town and known as the “Barrack’s Hospital”: Compared with what we have just visited, this is purgatory to a Paradise.

The buildings are nineteen in number, and previous to their present use were occupied as barracks by the soldiers. I said “buildings”. They are really mere sheds, enclosed on all sides, it is true, but with the exception of ventilation are almost entirely destitute of anything that should constitute a hospital. The roof descends nearly to the heads of the beds, of which there are twenty in each shed, and there is no floor but the hard, well swept earth, except under the bunks, where a few dirty planks are loosely laid, upon which the patients may step. There are no tables except those used by the nurses and attendants, and few of those luxuries are to be seen, which invest a sick chamber with an air of cheerfulness and comfort.

A few hundred yards from the barrack hospital is the soldier’s grave yard – a pretty tract of ground which has been purchased and neatly fenced

Roadside emergency kit a perfect gift for the college bound xxx

School is almost back in session and students across Courtesy of ASE the country will soon be packing up their cars and heading off to college. If you are searching for that perfect gift for the college-bound kid in your life, the Car Care Council suggests putting together a roadside emergency kit.

“A roadside kit is easy to assemble, not too expensive and extremely useful, plus it could be a life saver in the event of an emergency,” said Rich White, executive director of the Car Care Council. “While it’s always a good idea to be prepared for the unexpected while on the road, the best option is to avoid breakdowns and car trouble wherever possible. Performing basic maintenance and observing a regular service schedule can help avoid unforeseen road emergencies.”

Roadside emergency items can fit into a small duffle bag or rubber storage tote and include the following: Jumper cables Emergency flares Flashlight with batteries Blankets and extra clothes Non-perishable snacks and bottled water carcare.com

There are now three rows extending from end to end of the lot in mathematical order, the graves being about three feet apart. To facilitate recognition, so that the bodies may be removed at any time, a neat wooden head board is placed at the head of each grave with the name of the deceased, his regiment and date of death, painted thereon. This is the only institution of the kind which exists in the State as far as I have been informed and thanks are due to the commandant of the post for the care he has thus taken to mark and preserve the temporary resting places of the brave dead.

This cemetery sat on the western side of current South Blue Ridge Avenue.

The bodies were removed from this site and reinterred under the Confederate Monument at Citizen’s Cemetery (later renamed Fairview Cemetery) in 1881.

IN BRIEF

Team Jordan supports SAFE Recently “Team Jordan,” a nonprofit organization whose efforts are to prevent suicide, held a fundraiser to raise money for other nonprofit organizations within the community of Culpeper. SAFE (Services to Abused Families, Inc.) was one of the recipients chosen to be given funds raised. Team Jordan is a local organization that partners with RRCS (Rappahannock Regional Community Services) to facilitate support groups as well as other awareness and prevention elements related to suicide.

“SAFE is thankful for the continued support and monetary donations we receive from Team Jordan. The strong partnerships built and community engagement exhibited for the cause continues to be the link needed as we continue to pull together tighter than ever before.

While SAFE understands that suicide can affect us all individually or as a whole, we are continually grateful for Team Jordan. “Every story told no matter how hard, may eliminate another from happening.”

SAFE continues to provide shelter, ➤ See Briefs, Page 18

For more information contact Bryan Hofmann at bryan.hofmann@ riverfriends.org

Friends of the Rappahannock receive grant Friends of the Rappahannock (FOR) announced Wednesday the recent award of $193,000 in grant funds from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) as a part of their Chesapeake Bay Small Watershed Grant Program.

This project will restore important habitat for native brook trout through the removal of fish passage barriers allowing the trout access to more than two additional miles of important spawning habitat in the upper Rapidan River watershed.

Additionally it will establish a healthy riparian buffer to keep the water cold enough for trout and improve the condition of the stream channel to reduce erosion and improve water quality.

“We are thrilled NFWF has chosen to fund this great

project,”said Bryan Hofmann, FOR programs manager.

“This project has been in the works for awhile, has a great lineup of partners, and will make a huge impact on eastern brook trout habitat and multiple water quality metrics included in the upper Rapidan River TMDL plan.”

This project is a part of a larger trout restoration initiative happening throughout the upper Rappahannock River watershed thanks to a coalition of great partners including the Piedmont Environmental Council (PEC), Trout Unlimited (TU), Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF), and Ecosystem Services LLC.
