Seniors’ Groups are Happy with New Deal

Agreement with County Government Will Permit More Fund-Raising Options SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

The process took a tad longer than anticipated, but all sides concur that a new agreement in support of the Arlington government’s senior centers already has

had beneficial results – with more good things on the way. “It’s a sea change,” said Douglas Frost, who heads the Alliance for Arlington Senior Programs. It was that non-profit organization that last September inked an agreement

with the Arlington Department of Parks and Recreation, formalizing a relationship that had existed for nearly a decade and, as a result, provides new resources to the volunteer committees that support six county senior centers. The change was embraced by advo-

cates for local seniors. “We’re quite thrilled,” said Marilyn Marton, who chairs the Senior Adult Council. She cited Alliance efforts to sponsor events ranging from cooking Continued on Page 19

Marymount Celebrates Fun Fashions BRIAN TROMPETER Staff Writer

It’s an annual tradition that never ceases to wow. Fashion-design students at Marymount University presented their best designs at the annual “Portfolio in Motion” show, offered up May 3 through 5 on the university’s Arlington campus. The range of fashions on view was extensive and elaborate, ranging from sleek formal get-ups to perky beach outfits and flowery gowns. One design even had what appeared to be a chain-mail headdress. Marymount officials gave these students awards for their creations: • Odalys Ihrig, Portfolio in Motion Award. • Morgan Herbener, NAMSB Ray Rankins, Dana Najib, Julianna Carfaro and Elle Park wear clothing designed by Cathy Olivar on May 3 during Marymount University’s annual

‘18 NVCC Grads Saluted for Surmounting Hurdles SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

Newly minted graduates of the commonwealth’s largest institution of higher education were sent to the next phase of their lives better GRADS for the experience, 2018 speakers said. “You leave with a confidence that will fortify you. You leave us with both self-confidence and aspirations. Your impact on our region and the world can be greater than you ever imagine,” Northern Virginia Community College president Scott Ralls said at the college’s 52nd annual commencement, held May 12 at Jiffy Lube Live in Bristow. “These past few years . . . will launch you,” added Brenda Medrano-Frias, the student representative to the college’s board, who is headed to Georgetown University to pursue a bachelor’s degree. Medrano-Frias said she was “directionless and lost” when she first began classes at NVCC, but benefited from personalized attention and flexibility at the college. “Think about the people who helped to guide you,” she told fellow graduates. “I always found myself surrounded by true mentors and role models.” “Each of you in your own way is a bright new star. Don’t forget us,” said Todd Rowley, who both chairs the col-

lege’s board and is working toward a midcareer degree (in cybersecurity) himself, expecting to complete his studies in two semesters. Delivering the commencement address was Del. Elizabeth Guzman (D-Prince William), a native of Peru who earned an associate degree in office management at NVCC in 2003 before going to earn undergraduate and graduate degrees from Capella University, American University and the University of Southern California. “It brings back memories,” Guzman, who became a U.S. citizen in 2005, said as she surveyed the students awaiting their diplomas on a toasty Saturday afternoon. “What a great school.” Guzman told the graduates, whose origins span the globe, that the U.S. needs to remain a welcoming place to all who want to pursue their dreams. “Immigrants help to build the thriving economy of this country,” she said. “I want to protect the American Dream for my children and your children and our grandchildren.” Each year, more than 7,200 students are eligible to participants in commencement exercises, having completed requirements for degree and certificate programs. Among the crop of 2018 graduates were the husband-and-wife duo of James and Elizabeth Williams. Set to celebrate their first wedding anniversary in June,

they returned to school at ages 31 and 26, respectively. Despite initial trepidation, the experience was a positive – and even fun – one, James Williams said. “We always kept each other on track and held one another accountable for completing assignments and not missing classes,” he said in a university release. “We became a constant source of encouragement for each other.” “I’ve turned into a completely different person,” Elizabeth Williams said of the end result. At the ceremony, Elizabeth Williams graduated magnum cum laude with a degree in business administration and James Williams cum laude with a degree in general studies and certificate in construction supervision. Both are moving on to George Mason University. Theirs is the type of story NVCC administrators, educators, alumni and new

graduates like to shout from the rooftops. “Always remember you started here. And be proud,” Medrano-Frias said.

Highs & Lows THUMBS UP: To Arlington Master Police Officer Rosa Ortiz, for receiving the 2018 Arlington County Crime Solvers Law Enforcement Officer of the Year Award last week. Ortiz is part of a squad within the police department that handles “cold cases” – those that investigators have been unable to crack through the years. With both advancements in technology and old-fashioned legwork, they have been able to close some major crimes and make progress on others. Kudos to Ortiz and the other members of that team for their passion. They are the ones who can bring justice for victims and families, and in so doing, for the entire community.

THUMBS UP: To the Arlington County Civic Federation, which at its annual awards ceremony lauded the efforts of Nicole Merlene, one of those rare breeds: a Millennial who “gets” the importance of civic activism in Arlington. A county native, Merlene is passionate about bringing new blood (in many forms) to venerable institutions. “Evolve or Die” is the simple reality for a host of service and civic organizations, and it’s great that the Civic Federation embraces these types of efforts. THE LATEST MONTHLY REALESTATE FIGURES for Northern Virginia are out, and for a second month, the average sales price of an Arlington single-family home

stood in the seven-figure range. To be exact: $1,014,762. That’s based on sales in April, reported by RealEstate Business Intelligence based on data from Bright MLS. Having a million-dollar average in Arlington has happened occasionally in the past, but now it’s looking like it’s going to be a regular occurrence. And we’re talking about existing homes, not new construction, which would push the average even higher. Anybody else just a tad nervous about another real-estate bubble? At a certain point, home prices will so outstrip the ability of prospective purchasers to pay the asking price – particularly with interest rates on the rise – that something will have to give.

leak, costing many thousands of dollars in damage. Due to a lack of space, many of our classes are held in “temporary” trailers, which are in poor condition because they are built from lackluster materials. Even the water fountains are bad. Some days the water is practically not drinkable, apparently because of old

pipes and an old filtration system. Even if there were a renovation, massive overpopulation most likely would continue. All in all, Swanson should be torn down and replaced to meet the area’s needs. Max Fuhrig Arlington

Democrats Need Tutorial on Housing Issues Editor: The May 10 Sun Gazette highlighted the two vacuous Democratic candidates for County Board (Matt de Ferranti and Chanda Choun) who have not a clue or specific action that would help to keep Arlington’s economic and demographic diversity. As chair of the Arlington Green Party, I invite both candidates to join us in our two very specific actions to preserve affordable housing for lower-income renters in Arlington, many of whom are people of color, seniors, and disabled people: historic preservation of 400 market-rate rental apartments in Westover and the expansion of the county’s current (rental) housing grants program to include more seniors, disabled and families with children who are renters earning less than $45,000 a year.

We think the county government should use its historic-preservation authority to preserve the 70-year-old Westover garden apartments that house renters mostly earning under $50,000. The county government has dragged its feet in historic preservation of these modest but graceful older apartments while a developer has bulldozed away near 100 units in order to build milliondollar townhouses for the wealthy. We have repeatedly asked the Democratic-controlled County Board to expand and fund more housing grants by, for example, lowering the age for seniors to get grants from 65 years to 50 years, and by loosening excessive requirements for families with a child to get a monthly grant that would make a rental apartment more affordable in Arlington and keep diversity in our community.

www.insidenova.com

Instead, the County Board cut funds from its current housing-grants program and did nothing to help more seniors, disabled and families be able to stay in a rental unit in Arlington. Welcome, Democratic candidates, to the perennial debate about why Arlington is no longer affordable nor diverse as it was 10 years ago with a sharp drop in Latinos and black residents. We welcome your support for our Green ideas that we think can make a small but positive change. The Arlington Greens want to keep economic and demographic diversity in Westover Village. Join us, Democrats. John Reeder Arlington The Sun Gazette welcomes your letters to the editor on local topics.

4-H SUMMER-CAMP PROGRAM RAMPS UP SCHOLARSHIP EFFORTS: Leaders of

the Arlington 4-H program are working to make the organization’s summer-camp experience affordable to a wider array of county youth. With scholarships, “we’re able to send more and more of those kids who wouldn’t have the opportunity to experience the camp,” said Caitlin Verdu of Arlington Cooperative Extension, which sponsors the summer-camp program. Campers ages 9-13 from Arlington will descend on the 4-H facility in Front Royal from July 22-26 for the 2018 experience. In addition to specific programs throughout the day – from archery to ropes courses – there also are campwide events that include fashion shows, talent shows and scavenger hunts. The camp fee is $350, and contributions to the scholarship fund help to offset that cost for students whose families show financial need. Last year, about a third of the Arlington contingent was on some form of scholarship, Verdu said. That was more than double the total a year before. Among the groups that support the scholarship fund is the Kiwanis Club of Arlington. Ginger Geoffrey, a member of the club, said proposed cutbacks to the Arlington school system’s Outdoor Lab program make rural learning experiences all the more important for local students. “4-H could be even more of a resource,” said Geoffrey. Virginia Cooperative Extension is a program of Virginia Tech and Virginia State University; the Arlington office is located at the Fairlington Community Center.

Year-Over-Year County Home Sales Rise in April Average Price of Existing Single-Family Homes Topped $1 Million for Second Time in ‘18 Arlington single-family homes continue to sell, on average, for more than $1 million as the market moves deeper into the competitive spring-summer season. A total of 261 residential properties went to closing across the county in April, according to figures reported May 10 by RealEstate Business Intelligence, based on data from Bright MLS. That’s up 4.4 percent from the 250 transactions reported in April 2017. The average sales price of all properties that sold for the month was $667,810, down 1.3 percent. But that dip was due primarily to more attached homes in the overall mix compared to single-family homes. Among the three legs of the local market: • The average sales price of singlefamily-detached properties stood at $1,014,762, up 5.4 percent from a year before. • The average price of attached homes, such as townhouses and rowhouses, was $482,088, down 2.7 percent. • The average price of condominiums was $441,168, up 5.4 percent. Add up the sales and average prices, and the total dollar volume sold in April stood at $174.3 million, up 3 percent from a year before. The April market had almost, but

not quite, as much spring in its step as a year before; the average length between a home’s listing and ratified sales contract for the month was 36 days, up slightly from 34 a year ago. Homes that went to closing in April garnered 98.5 percent of listing price, unchanged. Conventional mortgages represented the method of transacting sales in 200 cases, followed by cash (31) and VAbacked mortgages (14). Inventory remains lower than a year before; the 475 homes on the market in Arlington at the end of the month represented a decline of nearly 12 percent from a year before. But the number of homes coming onto the market during the month was up about 4 percent. Where is the local market headed? Pending sales and homes under contract both were lower in April from a year before, suggesting the situation could be good but not exceptional as it moves into the heavy May-June-July sales period. Figures represent most, but not all, homes on the market. All data are preliminary, and are subject to revision. Sales, Prices Up in Inner Core: Sales of existing homes across the D.C. inner core were up from a year before in April, as average sales prices also rose in all three sectors of the market and total sales vol-

ume was up nearly 10 percent. A total of 4,837 properties went to closing last month across the region, according to figures reported May 10 by RealEstate Business Intelligence, based on data from Bright MLS. That’s up 5.2 percent from 4,598 a year ago. (Figures represent sales in the District of Columbia; Arlington and Fairfax counties and the cities of Alexandria, Fairfax and Falls Church in Virginia; and Montgomery and Prince George’s counties in Maryland.) The average sales price of all homes that sold during the month was $546,420, up 4.1 percent from a year before. Among the three legs of the market, the average price of single-family homes was up 4.4 percent to $658,157; the average price of attached homes was up 5.1 percent to $450,204; and the average price of condominiums was up 4 percent to $378,539. Add up the sales and prices, and the total dollar volume of $2.64 billion in April was up 9.5 percent. Homes that went to closing during the month spent an average of 33 days between listing and ratified sales contract, an improvement from 39 days required a year before, and garnered 99 percent of original listing price, up slightly from 98.7 percent. Inventory continues to be lower than

a year before; the 8,655 properties on the market at the end of April represent a decline of 9.4 percent from a year ago. Where is the market heading? Regionwide, things are looking good, if a bit mixed, with homes coming under contract and new pending sales in April up from a year before, but total pending sales down. Figures represent most, but not all, homes on the market. All data are preliminary, and are subject to revision.

Crime Solvers Shines a Spotlight on ‘Cold Cases’ SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

Advances in technology have helped, but cracking unsolved “cold cases” and bringing perpetrators to justice is a public-safety specialty that still requires inthe-trenches gruntwork from a dedicated team of professionals. That was the message as Arlington County Crime Solvers on May 10 honored Arlington Master Police Officer Rosa Ortiz, part of an elite squad called in to take a fresh look at cases when other efforts have been unsuccessful in bringing a case to resolution. “The county pays my salary, but I work for the families, I work for the victims – they are never forgotten,” said Ortiz, who has been on the Arlington force for 27 years. “I love my job and I’m very passionate about it.” About 20 unsolved Arlington murders, and another set of sexual assaults, are

among the cases that Ortiz and her colleagues work on every day. “She never forgets about the victim. She is speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves,” Police Chief Jay Farr said at the ceremony, held at the Salsa Room on Columbia Pike. “It is justice to the victims we seek, first and foremost,” Farr said, noting that cases have been solved after 10, 15 or even 20 years. “Never lose hope,” he told the gathering. Among those who retains hope in the wake of tragedy is Lydia Robertson. In June 2006, her brother – Paul Zeller – was walking home from the Pentagon City Metro station when he was shot and killed in the 1300 block of South Joyce Street. Police ruled out robbery as a motive, but have been unable to make an arrest. “I don’t think any family will be prepared [for an event like that], and it still has an impact on us today,” Robertson

Master Police Officer Rosa Ortiz speaks as she was honored as Law Enforcement Officer of the Year by Arlington County Crime Solvers.

said. But she was steadfast in praising the professionalism of Arlington police. “Even 12 years later, they continue to reach out, they continue to believe – we

will always have hope,” she said. Last year, Zeller’s family contributed part of the reward fund that had been offered in his death to Crime Solvers, in an effort to help the organization garner tips on other crimes. Arlington County Crime Solvers president Andres Tobar said the annual luncheon and awards ceremony is an opportunity for the organization to acknowledge the often unheralded work of local public-safety personnel. It also highlights the importance of a good relationship between public-safety personnel and the community they serve. “This is a community affair,” he said. “We are here together to say ‘thank you’ to our law-enforcement officials.” Tips on the Zeller case, and other unsolved crimes, are accepted by Arlington County Crime Solvers at (866) 411-TIPS. Rewards of up to $1,000 are offered for information that leads to an arrest in certain cases.

County Board Set to OK Expansions at Yorktown, Career Center County Board members on May 19 are expected to approve use-permit amendments that will allow the Arlington school system to expand two current schools in efforts to keep up with a rising population. The board’s action, largely pro-forma, will permit school officials to increase ca-

pacity of Yorktown High School by 300 students through modification of internal spaces. The increased capacity will bring the school to a maximum of 2,179 students. Work will be done over the summer. County school officials already have completed internal renovations to in-

YYYY

crease capacity at Wakefield and Washington-Lee high schools. County Board approval also is expected to allow for 200 additional seats at the Arlington Career Center. The extra seats will support expansion of the school system’s Arlington Tech initiative from 150 to 350 students, with expansion within the

existing school footprint taking place over the summer, as well. Currently, the total capacity of the Arlington Career Center is 600. It would rise to 800 with County Board approval. “Capacity” is lower than total possible enrollment, since the Career Center holds classes in daytime and evening.

With the Cialis Patent About to Expire, a New Sex Pill Takes the Spotlight A patented pill costing less than $1 a dose stands to help millions of men with failing sex lives; no prescription will be required By Ray Wilson Associated Health Press AHP− A new sex pill is set to take the spotlight with the Cialis patent expiring next month. But unlike the former, it won’t require a prescription and is priced just under a $1 a dose. The new pill called Vesele is part of a new class of performance enhancers for men, which work instantaneously on the body and mind triggering arousal and firmer, harder erections. Formulated with a special compound known as an “accelerator”, Vesele can transport its active ingredients faster and more efficiently into the blood stream, where it begins to work its magic. The patented ingredient blend initiates a process known as vasodilation, which causes arteries and vessels throughout the body to expand. This allows blood to flow directly to penis and genitals, resulting in harder erections which last longer. Cialis and Viagra are based around a simlilar concept. But what makes Vesele so remarkable, and what these other sex pills can’t do, is that also directs a small portion of this blood flow to the brain, which creates feelings of intense arousal. In laymen’s terms, users become incredibly excited and turned on. This is why the makers of Vesele say their pill has worked so effectively in clinical trials. It stimulates the two most important organs for great sex, the penis and the brain.

The Brain Erection Connection Until now, medical researchers did not fully understand the brain-erection connection. It has now been made clear with Vesele. When both are supplied with a constant blood flow, men are harder and firmer for longer...and have unbelievable sex drives. “Most of the research and treatment methods for men’s sexual failures have focused on physiological factors and have neglected the emotional ones. For the leading sex drugs to work, like Cialis and Viagra, you need visual stimulation” explains Dr. Henry Esber, the creator of Vesele. “And although they work for some men, the majority experience absolutely no fulfillment during sex. According to research published by the National Institute of Health, 50% of men taking these drugs stop responding or can’t tolerate their side effects...and on top of that they spend $50 per pill and it doesn’t even work half the time. This is what makes Vesele so different and effective. It floods the blood stream with key ingredients which cause arteries all over the body to expand. The patented accelerator speeds up this process even more.

The result is a rush of blood flow to the penis and brain, helping to create an impressive erection and a surging desire for sex. Often, this is all men need to get going. And when taken regularly, many men say they are energized and aroused all day.”

Great Sex At Any Age With the conclusion of their latest human clinical use survey trial, Dr. Esber and his team are now offering Vesele in the US. And regardless of the market, its sales are exploding. Men across the country are eager to get their hands on the new pill and according to the research, they should be. In the trial above, as compared to baseline, men taking Vesele saw a staggering 85% improvement in erection hardness over a four-month period. Their erections also lasted twice as long. These same men also experienced an astounding 82% increase in the desire for sex (libido/ sex drive) and an even greater improvement in overall satisfaction and ability to satisfy their partners. Many men taking Vesele described feeling horny and aroused through the day. The anticipation before sex was amazing. They were also easily turned on. Their moods were more upbeat and positive, too.

Faster Absorption into the Blood Stream Vesele is made up of three specialized ingredients: two clinical strength vasodilators and a patented absorption enhancer often called an accelerator. According to an enormous amount of clinical data, each is very safe. Research shows that with age, many men lose their desire and interest in sex. They also struggle to produce an erection firm enough for penetration. And although there are many theories as to why this happens (including a loss in testosterone) one thing is certain, inadequate blood flow is virtually always to blame. That’s why sex drug manufacturers focus on blood flow, it makes your erection hard. But what’s more surprising, and what these manufacturers have failed to consider, is that lack of blood flow can also kill your sex drive. That’s because blood supplies energy for the brain. This energy is required for creating brainwaves that cause excitability and arousal. Studies show the Vesele stimulates the entire cardiovascular system, including the arteries that lead to both the brain and penis. The extreme concentration of the ingredients combined with the accelerator ensures that this process starts quickly.

Expiring Patent Opens the Door to a New Sex Pill: Vesele is a new pill that cost just $1 a dose does not require a prescription. It works on both body and mind to increase arousal and erection hardness.

The sexual benefits of Vesele are also multiplied as its ingredients build up in the system over time. This is why many men take it every single day.

Recent Studies Show Positive Effects on Women In the same study referenced throughout, Vesele was also shown to have an amazing (and somewhat surprising) effect on women too. That’s because the same arteries and vessels that carry blood and oxygen to the brain and genitals are the same in men and women. “In our most recent study, women taking Vesele saw a stunning 52% improvement in arousal and sex drive. Perhaps more impressive, they also experienced a 57% improvement in lubrication. You can imagine why some couples are taking Vesele together. Everything feels better. Everything works better. Everyone performs better. It’s truly amazing.”

A New Frontier of NonPrescription Sex Pills With daily use, Vesele is helping men (and women) restore failing sex lives and overcome sexual lets downs without side effect or expense. Through a patented absorption enhancer, the Vesele formula hits the bloodstream quickly, resulting in phenomenal improvements in erection firmness and hardness. By boosting blood flow to the brain, users also experience sexual urges and arousal they often haven’t felt in years.

No Republicans File for County Board Nomination

County GOP Is Likely to Back Independent John Vihstadt in Bid for His Second 4-Year Term SCOTT McCAFFREY Staff Writer

As had been expected, the May 9 deadline for prospective County Board candidates to file for the Arlington County Republican Committee nomination came and went without any takers. That result leaves the party free, if desired, to support the candidacy of independent County Board member John Vihstadt, who is seeking a new term in the Nov. 6 general election. The Republican Committee was part of Vihstadt’s coalition in 2014, when he won a special election called in the spring to fill the seat of Democratic Chris Zimmerman, who resigned, then won the subsequent general election for a full fouryear term that November. Republican Committee members had voted unanimously in late April to use a mass-meeting format this month to decide on a nominee. With no one having filed, party chairman Jim Presswood nixed the event. Republicans will discuss their next

move in the County Board race at their monthly meeting on May 23. Vihstadt has qualified for ballot access, and will await a June primary to see which of two Democratic candidates – Matt de Ferranti and Chanda Choun – he will square off against in November. Independent candidates for County Board have until June to file paperwork to get on the ballot. Ahead of Primary, Campaign Signage Sprouts: With less than a month to go until the June 12 Democratic and Republican primaries, campaign signage has begun making its appearance in medians across Arlington. Democratic County Board candidate Matt de Ferranti appeared to be the first contender out of the gate, with his signage blossoming over the weekend – the earliest time it was allowed under Arlington’s campaign-signage rules. De Ferranti is squaring off against Chanda Choun for the Democratic nomination to take on independent County Board candidate John Vihstadt in November. On the Republican side, candidates E.W. Jackson, Nick Freitas and Corey Stewart are vying for the opportunity to challenge U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) in November.

Bank with Presidential

County Board member John Vihstadt, shown at his re-election kickoff in January, is likely to win the support of the Arlington County Republican Committee.

Under Arlington’s sign regulations, candidates are allowed to place campaign signage in medians within a month of a primary election. Not only candidates in primaries can place signs; those running in the next general election also can position their signage in the medians during the one-month window. The rules apply only to county-owned rights-of-way. The Virginia Department

of Transportation bans campaign signage in its medians, although some candidates flout (or are unaware of) that rule. Arlington government officials have the power to remove illegally placed signage on county rights-of-way, but are not empowered to remove it on VDOT rightsof-way. There are no county rules regulating campaign signage on private property.

L.A., Atlanta, San Francisco Have Top 2018 Neighborhoods The Oaks in Los Angeles, Tuxedo Park in Atlanta and Presidio Heights in San Francisco rank as the most popular neighborhoods in the nation among prospective purchasers, according to new data from Zillow. To identify the nation’s most popular neighborhoods, Zillow looked for places with the highest number of page views per listing during the first three months of 2018. Among the 20 most popular neighborhoods on Zillow’s list, 15 are along the West Coast in either California or the state of Washington. (The Woodland-Normanstone neighborhood in the District of Columbia was the lone community in the local region to make the list ranking 14th.) For the most part, top neighborhoods are among the toniest in some of the most expensive cities in the country. While this doesn’t show a likelihood that more people will be buying homes and moving in, it does show how many people wish they could, or are curious about the neighborhood. The typical for-sale listing in The Oaks neighborhood has received almost 13,000 page views so far this year, compared to 365 page views on the typical U.S. home. The median list price in the neighborhood is about $3.7 million, more than double the median list price in the city of Calabasas, Calif., as a whole, where the neighborhood is located. The typical home for sale in The Oaks is about 5,600 square feet – 3,800 square feet larger than the median U.S. home. Tuxedo Park, the second most popular neighborhood on Zillow’s list, is in the city of Atlanta. The typical home for sale in this neighborhood is listed for just under $1.9 million and is 5,476 square feet. “Real estate shoppers are usually very aspirational, so it’s no surprise we have a lot of shoppers looking outside of where they can likely afford and, instead, looking at beautiful homes in desirable areas,” said Zillow senior economist Aaron Terrazas. “We see these more posh neighborhoods drawing shoppers in, but ultimately, these probably aren’t the neighborhoods most will end up in – but it’s hard to blame these buyers, because really, who hasn’t dreamed big when home shopping?”

Douglas Frost, who leads the Alliance for Arlington Senior Programs, poses outside the Langston-Brown Senior Center on May 12. The Alliance recently signed an agreement with the Arlington County government.

Seniors Continued from Page 1 demonstrations and fitness programs to a “brain day” devoted to aging issues, and its efforts to provide financial support so income levels do not create a barrier. “The Alliance’s contributions – monetary, programmatic or just working together to achieve goals – are invaluable for fostering and maintaining a vibrant senior community,” Marton said. Getting the agreement signed, she said, provided “a big sigh of relief.” The agreement allows senior-centerbased volunteer committees – operating under the umbrella of the Alliance for Arlington Senior Programs – to again raise funds on county-government property. County officials for several years had not allowed that fund-raising to take place. The trickle-down impact of the formal partnership is wending its way to individual senior centers, where participants in programs are able to take an active role in providing financial support. “We just had . . . a big garage sale, which is how we raise most of our money,” said Marge Corletti, who chairs the senior committee at Aurora Hills Senior Center. “We’re pleased to be able to do that.” Corletti said funding raised in recent months helped support efforts connecting seniors in Aurora Hills with the momsand-tots program in the neighborhood, including a tree-trimming event in December – “we had such a lovely time,” she said – and an upcoming ice-cream social. Like nearly everyone contacted on the issue, Corletti was upbeat, but acknowl-

edged the process of finalizing the agreement was no easy task. “We were very, very happy, [but] it did take a little longer,” she said. “It did take a long time, but it was a complicated issue,” said Frost, praising staff in the Department of Parks and Recreation, “from top to bottom,” for being supportive. With the new agreement, there has been “a great uptick of enthusiasm” within the various senior centers, Frost said. “The word is getting out much more than it had,” he said. “We’ve become much more active.” Jennifer Collins, the 55+ unit manager with the county government’s Office of Senior Adult Programs, said the Alliance has been “a wonderful partner” for more than 10 years. The arrangement signed in September was evolutionary in nature, she said. “Our new agreement just documents for transparency how we will continue to work together to enhance recreational opportunities for people 55 and older in Arlington,” Collins said. One benefit of the agreement is that individuals and businesses that make charitable contributions will be able to claim those donations for tax purposes. The Alliance already has benefited from support of the James A. Rogers and Patricia Rissler Foundation, and would be happy to speak with any prospective benefactors, Frost said. “Oh my goodness, yes,” he said. ••• For information on the Alliance for Arlington Senior Programs, see the Web site at www.friendsofthealliance.org or write to P.O.

Dulles Toll Road would jump by about one-third starting next year under a proposed schedule listed in a report to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA). Motorists making all but the shortest trips since 2014 have paid $2.50 at the mainline plaza and $1 at exit ramps, for a total of $3.50. According to the staff report, tolls would hold steady through this year, but from 2019 through 2022 would rise to $3.25 at the mainline plaza and $1.50 at exit ramps, bringing the total to $4.75. Tolls would keep increasing in the decades ahead, under the tentative schedule. From 2023 through 2027, the total would be $6 ($4 at the mainline plaza, $2 at exit ramps); from 2028 through 2032, the total would be $7.25 ($4.75 and $2.50, respectively); from 2033 through 2037, the total would be $8.75 ($5.50 and $3.25); from 2038 through 2042, the total would be $10 ($6.25 and $3.75); and from 2043 through

Slots at Reagan National are allocated by the U.S. Department of Transportation. The deal has won approval from the U.S. Department of Justice. Southwest inaugurated service to Reagan National in July 2012 with once-a-day service to Austin. It has grown to have a market share of about 14 percent of all passengers at the airport, ranking behind only dominant American Airlines. Alaska Airlines began service to Reagan National in early September 2001 with service to Seattle and on to Anchorage. Today, it ranks sixth in passenger totals at the airport, carrying about 3 per-

Rosslyn community until closing in 2008. The restaurant was known for its paddlewheel-inspired salad bar, prime rib and a classic décor reminiscent – to some – of a 19th-century bordello. The restaurant “created many memo-

ries for Arlingtonians, and now, thanks to the work of AHS members and friends, we will be able to preserve part of that memory before it was lost forever,” historical-society officials said in the organization’s quarterly newsletter.

2058, the total would be $11.25 ($7 and $4.25). MWAA’s board of directors will review the toll report at its May 16 meeting. The proposed schedule calls for MWAA’s board on June 20 to authorize the agency to proceed with the regulatory process for the proposed rate adjustments and their effective dates. The Airports Authority would accept public comments about the proposed increases during July and August (the starting and cutoff dates for that period have yet to be determined), followed by reports on those comments in September and board action on the toll increases on Oct. 17. MWAA has not yet determined when in 2019 the higher tolls would be implemented. For more information, visit www. mwaa.com/board-meeting-schedule.

The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority on May 17 will welcome a new carrier – Volaris – to Washington Dulles International Airport. The carrier is starting up service to San Salvador, El Salvador, with connecting service to San José, Costa Rica. “The carrier’s model provides a new, low-price option for people traveling to El Salvador and Costa Rica, particularly entrepreneurs and those visiting friends and relatives,” MWAA officials said. The inaugural flight arrives at 11:35 p.m. on May 13 and departs at 1:52 a.m. on May 17, using Airbus A319 aircraft. Flight time is slightly more than four hours. Since beginning operations in March 2006, Volaris has increased its routes from five to more than 170 and its fleet from four to 71 aircraft. For information on service, see the Web site at www.volaris.com.

Team Wins in Rout In First-Round Play A Staff Report

A lopsided first-round victory in the girls Liberty District softball tournament accomplished two big things for the Yorktown Patriots.

SOFTBALL ROUNDUP

Continued on Page 23

-

With its 15-0 blanking of the Herndon Hornets on May 11, third-seeded Yorktown (14-7) advanced to the tourney semifinals against No. 2 seed McLean, which were scheduled for May 15, and clinched a berth to play in the region competition for the first time since the 2012 high school season. The district-playoff win was Yorktown’s first in at least three seasons. Yorktown and McLean split two regular-season contests. The championship game is scheduled for May 18. Langley and top-seed South Lakes were in the other semifinal. Yorktown defeated Langley twice and lost to South Lakes twice in regular-season play. In the victory over Herndon, Yorktown amassed 21 hits and Zoe Apsel and Jada Lansing pitched to combine for the shutout. The Patriots scored four runs in the Yorktown High School senior shortstop Kate Cressey rounds first base during the Patriots’ victory over Herndon in first-round district-tournament action.

Warriors, Patriots Advance; Generals Lose DAVE FACINOLI Staff Writer

By scoring nine runs each, the Wakefield Warriors and Yorktown Patriots were first-round winners May 11 in district-tournament baseball action, while the season ended that same date with an opening-round loss for the WashingtonLee Generals. Yorktown downed the visiting Herndon Hornets, 9-1, in Liberty District high school action and host Wakefield topped the Lee Lancers, 9-4, in a National District contest. Washington-Lee (9-12) lost to the host Langley Saxons, 8-4, in Liberty play in the final game for Generals’ 22

May 17, 2018

After 24 seasons as the Generals’ head coach, Doug Grove is retiring with nearly 300 career victories. Grove was highly regarded and equally highly respected by peers for the high-class job he did as Washington-Lee’s coach for nearly a quarter of a century. Even if his teams lagged in talent, W-L always was fundamentally sound and never an easy W for an opponent, especially on the Generals’ urban-setting home field at Quincy Park. Many will be interested in the job. Grove will not be easy to replace. The right person needs to be hired, and there is a concern that the wrong choice could result in damage to the Arlington Senior Babe Ruth program. That spring and summer program has become one of the strongest and most stable in Virginia. One reason is because the county’s three public high school head baseball coaches (at W-L, Wakefield and York-town) have not insisted that their younger-age up-and-coming players switch to join summertime travel baseball teams and away from playing Babe Ruth. A different influence or insistence toward travel ball from any of those three coaches could hurt and weaken the spring and summertime Babe Ruth program, especially the all-star teams, which annually win district and state championships. The Arlington Post 139 American Legion team, which more often draws high school juniors and seniors from the county’s three schools, also could suffer a negative impact. Those making the decision to replace Grove might not even be aware of such potential ramifications, nor concerned with those matters. Babe Ruth ball is strong in Arlington. Hopefully that won’t change after a new Washington-Lee head baseball coach is hired.

head coach Doug Grove, who is stepping down after 24 years and 286 career wins at the helm.

BASEBALL ROUNDUP “I remember my first couple of years all I was trying to do was not get fired,” Grove said. “It’s been fun more than anything over the years, and the time has gone fast. Our players have always played hard and we won some games and championships.” A number of former players and assistant coaches were on hand to watch Grove’s final game. Langley head coach Kevin Healy had a special pre-game announcement made to recognize Grove’s

accomplishments and contributions. “Doug always gave you time, whether you were the big-time veteran coach or one of the younger guys like me when I got started,” Healy said. “He never bigtimed you. People appreciate that about Doug. He’s a good guy. His teams were always prepared and ready to play.” In Grove’s final game, a couple of errors proved costly, as big hits by Langley followed the mistakes to produce multiple runs. “That was kind of the story of our season,” Grove said. “We’d be going along fine, then we’d make an error and the

Longtime W-L Baseball Coach Decides to Step Down DAVE FACINOLI Staff Writer

When the playoffs ended for the Washington-Lee Generals on May 11, that was the BASEBALL contest last for the high school’s longtime head baseball coach Doug Grove. He is retiring after 24 years as the team’s head coach. Grove had 286 career wins entering postseason action, which ended for Washington-Lee with a loss to Langley in a first-round Liberty District tournament road game. “It was a very hard decision and there have been some tough conversations about that,” said Grove, who will continue to teach at W-L. “Getting 300 wins would

have been really cool. I love coaching, but it’s the smart move and the right time to shut it down. Everything is fine and we’ve had a good season this year. I have really enjoyed this season. It’s a good group to leave on.” Washington-Lee will take a 9-11 overall record into that May 5 first-round elimination playoff game. A victory will extend the Generals’ season into the region tournament. Grove played baseball for W-L and graduated from the Arlington school in 1981. He was the head junior varsity baseball coach at W-L from 1989 to 1994, then took over as head coach in 1995. He also coached the fall golf team for a number of years.

As the head baseball coach, Grove earned top praise from his peers around the region for running a strong program and had a reputation of fielding strong fundamental teams sometimes known for

doing more with less. “That’s nice they’ve said those things, but half of them owe me money from playing golf,” Grove joked. Grove’s teams were known for recording the occasional big upset over heavy favorites. Two of those wins came against the perennial power Madison Warhawks, once in a 2001 region-tournament firstround playoff game, then in the 2016 regular season to snap Madison’s nine-game winning streak. Both were on Madison’s home field. The Generals defeated W.T. Woodson and Stone Bridge in other region-tournament games that were considered upsets. Washington-Lee won district championships under Grove, the last being the 2013 National District tournament.

and six assists, and Julia NorsworthyEdghill added four goals and four assists. Robertson and Parra had five and three goals, respectively. Nayhely Vallejos added two goals and Caroline Darnell one.

CREW ROUNDUP: At the Virginia Scholastic Rowing Championship for lower shells held on the Occoquan River, Yorktown’s girls novice eight finished second and the girls freshman eight was third.

Garret Lusks and Will Boggess had goals and Jorge Dickens and Lincoln Kickbush assists in Yorktown’s 2-2 tie with South Lakes to end regular-season play. In girls tourney action, Washington-Lee defeated Herndon in the first round, 2-1, and Yorktown (14-1-1) is the top seed, with a 15-game unbeaten streak, and had a first-round bye. In Yorktown’s 3-0 win over South Lakes to end the regular season, Lauren Flynn had two goals and Maddie Winer one. Lacey McCormack had two assists. n In a 3-2 loss to Jefferson in boys soccer, the Wakefield Warriors’ goals were scored by Oscar Lopez-Salas and Marlon Reyes.

O’CONNELL GOLFERS THIRD: The

Bishop O’Connell golfers placed third with a 425 team score at the recent Washington Catholic Athletic Conference golf tournament. Muren Xu, a sophomore, shot a 78 to lead O’Connell. Freshman Luke Byrne had a 79. For the regular season, O’Connell amassed an 11-4-1 overall record and was second in the WCAC standings for the first time in 20 years. As a result, O’Connell was invited to play in the Metro Private School Championship on May 15. O’Connell also plays in the privateschool state tournament on May 21, as the team is having its best season in years. O’Connell defeated conference rivals DeMatha and Paul VI Catholic in regular-season play and missed a three-foot putt on the last hole to tie Gonzaga.

For the ninth straight year, the Yorktown High School girls softball boosters made a donation to the Sharon McGowan Breast Health Fund. The $3,000 contributed brings to more than $20,000 the total donated throughout the initiative.

ney Russell each had two hits. Yorktown has made a big improvement this season. The Patriots had an 8-10 record last season and were 5-13 in 2016. n The season ended for the Washington-Lee Generals with an 18-0 firstround loss to the host Langley Saxons in Liberty District tournament action. n The Wakefield Warriors finished the regular season with nine wins, defeating Jefferson, 12-0, then Falls Church, 13-0,

in their final two games. Then in a first-round National District tournament game, Wakefield (10-7) routed the Jefferson Colonials, 17-6, behind a 19-hit attack, giving the Warriors five wins in six games. Amy Kohan, Katie Fried (three RBI) and Kiera Collins all had three hits for Wakefield, Katie Schlachter had four RBI and Julia Sonn had two RBI. Fried pitched three innings and Shel-

by Deegan two for Wakefield. n The Bishop O’Connell Knights (22-4) will be the top seed as they try to defend their championship this week in the Division I private-school girls state softball tournament. O’Connell was scheduled to host a first-round game on May 15 against No. 8 seed St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes. The semifinals and finals are May 17 and 18 at Dinwiddie Sports Complex Park.

“Our guys didn’t give up,” Grove said. In Wakefield’s win, pitcher David Baron took a no-hitter into the fifth inning and ended up going 62/3 innings, throwing 116 pitches with four strikeouts. With the bat, Baron had two hits, including a triple, and three RBI, Cason Poythress had two hits and two RBI, and Jonathan Parker and Brody Karton had two hits each. Jack Lane had a triple. Yorktown scored three runs in the first inning, two on an RBI single by Andrew Simmons. Later, Liberty District Player of the

Year Carson Wood, who had three hits, belted his eighth homer. Will Porter had an RBI single and Tanner Wall (two hits) an RBI double. John Merlene doubled. “We hit, ran and got some runs across tonight,” said Wall, who has stolen 22 bases in 22 attempts this season. Right-hander Michael Lowen threw six innings to get the win, with nine strikeouts and one walk. He has not allowed an earned run in 13 straight innings and is 2-0 in his last two starts. Quinlan Montgomery pitched the seventh with three strikeouts.

“I’ve been locating my off-speed pitches better the last two games, hitting my spots, and everything else has come into place,” Lowen said. Wakefield (10-9) and Yorktown (11-10) advanced to semifinal action – the Patriots were at McLean and the Warriors were hosting Edison. See updates at www. insidenova.com/sports/arlington. “I like how we’ve been playing,” said Yorktown coach John Skaggs, whose team has won four of five games. “Lowen set the tone for us right away tonight with his pitching, and everyone hit.”
