12 citizens learn to prepare to respond to emergencies Hanover County is preparing citizens to respond to emergencies in their communities by training them as a Community Emergency Response Team (“CERT”). Twelve (12) citizens recently graduated from the fourth Hanover County CERT class.

Graduates of the most recent CERT training class were: Donnie Adams, Joey Boor, Cindy Clayton, James Dich, Vilma Hill, Crys Howk, Larry Huber, Suzanne Kenniston, Glen Lambert, Teresa Phillips, Esther Vause and Tammy Weaver.

These volunteers completed eight sessions that covered various aspects of preparation for a disaster in their community, including providing medical assistance to victims and,

light search and rescue operations and disaster psychology and team organization.

Classes are taught by professionals from Hanover Fire/EMS, the American Red Cross and other agencies that are active in emergency preparedness.

“I truly enjoyed taking the CERT class,” Tammy Weaver said. “The Hanover Fire and EMS instructors did a great job. I learned basic skills that will allow me to provide some assistance in the event of an emergency, prior to professional help arriving. After taking the class I feel better prepared to provide assistance to my family and my community.”

OPINION | The Local Views

LETTERS

From the editor

Appointing posts vs. elected offices Before, during and after the appointment process for the Hanover County School Board, there was buzz around Hanover County about the politics involved in the process.

Well, that’s a debate I’m not about to step in. Any elected official who has the authority to appoint will, most likely, select someone he or she has some knowledge of, whether it’s personal or professional.

While two other individuals, Mike Shannon and Lorie Foley formally expressed interest in the Ashland District seat on the Hanover County School Board, the word about town was Ed Via, who serves as chairman of the Board of Supervisors from that district, would nominate Hank Lowry to fill the seat being vacated by long-time member Sue Forbes Watson.

And, last Wednesday, that’s just what Via did.

When Lowry presented himself as a candidate for the office on May 8, he told the supervisors that he had “something to offer and I want the schools to remain as good — if not better — than they are.”

An associate broker with Hometown Realty, Lowry has had four children go through Hanover County Public Schools. Seven of his nine grandchildren are students in the school system.

Reaction to his appointment has been positive — and that’s a good thing for our school district. This seemed to be a case where all three nominees were most qualified to serve.

Take note of a letter to the editor on this page about unelected positions and the role supervisors play in them. Granted, that is the writer’s opinion, but it can give you something to think about.

My first publisher always said, “Don’t tell the readers how to think, give them something to think about.” Words to live — and work — by.

So, I have received some feedback on the issue of an elected or appointed School Board. Don’t know that we’ll ever see it on a ballot, but we can be a part of the process — even when it means a supervisor is making the call. Express yourself.

As I work for all of you in the coming years, I will always listen and try to find you the answer to your questions.

Your article, “Aggressive Hawks handle Raiders 6-1” Hank Lowry published May 26, 2012, appeared to label the Hanover Ashland High School boys’ soccer team in a way that we, their parents and friends, think is unfair and hurtful.

Within the article, there was a suggestion that, “They are not afraid to mix it up,” and that they play in a way that has a “stigma.” The headline appeared to support that suggestion as fact.

Case in point, Hanover just sent several representatives to Boston to study their economic development program. The real mission of the trip was to gather support for a downtown baseball stadium for the Richmond Region. If this regional project becomes a reality, Hanover County would be a party to the loan guarantee and responsible for repaying its share of principal and interest.

Thankfully, Hanover’s BOS has resisted this idea, but for how much longer? Will your supervisor listen to you or the lobbying efforts of campaign contributors and pressure from outside sources?

As a member of these regional consortia, Hanover also sends many thousands of dollars to these groups but nowhere can we find that Hanover reaps a verifiable return on investment.

Where is it shown that Hanover received direct revenue from its investment in regional projects and applied that revenue to the bottom line of our county budget? Another good question for your supervisor.

Religious freedom fight Nothing seems to stand in the way of President Obama’s political agenda — not Congress, not the Constitution, and certainly not the church.

When he ordered faithbased groups to turn their backs on church teachings and fund life-destroying drugs, the White House was asking for a fight.

And they got it.

After months of trying to negotiate, the Catholic Church bombarded the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

get into the business of defining for us the extent of our ministry?” Cardinal Dolan wanted to know.

This isn’t about birth control. It’s about government control.

And every time religious freedom conflicts with this administration’s agenda, freedom seems to lose.

Together, America’s faith community is rising up to say “Enough!”

If this President wants to drive religion out of the public square, then his administration will have to go through thousands of priests, pastors and rabbis first.

They understand, as we do, that this war has implications — not just for religious liberty — but for every liberty.

If the Church can be conscripted to advance a liberal political agenda, then anyone can. This must be stopped.

I encourage all people of any faith to stand and fight alongside our church leaders.

OBITUARIES | Death Notices & Funerals Julia Mitchell Bache, 100, died June 7, 2012, after a short illness. She was preceded in death by her husband of 53 years, H. Kendall Bache Jr.; and her two sisters, Katreen Korte and Gay Welsh. Julia is survived by her two daughters and wonderful sons-in-law, Catherine and Eddie Kasko and Barbara and Joe Barker; four grandchildren, Mike and Jim Kasko, Chris and Dale Barker; and three devoted granddaughters-in-law, Jan Edwards, Beki Kasko and Maria Barker; and seven great-grandchildren, Casey and Abbey Kasko, Dillon and Isabella Barker, Stephanie and Kate Kasko and Riley Freites. Julia was a special aunt to Edward and George Korte, Treena Rinaldi, Maura Anderson and Brantley Bullock. Julia was an avid bridge player with a keen sense of humor. All her friends, of whom she had many, knew to keep their minds on the game even when she was 99. Some will surely hear echoes of the famous, “Are we here to play cards, or talk?” A delightful celebration of Julia’s life, where many of her friends and family gathered, was held

in October 2011 to commemorate her 100th birthday.

Therefore, no services are planned and the remains rest with the family. Julia had a unique ability to make friends in all generations and a special soft spot in her heart for all veterans groups. In lieu of flowers, contributions in her memory may be made to Fisher House Foundation, c/o Mr. Bret Wilkinson, 9201 Arboretum Pkwy., Suite 200, Richmond, Va. 23236. www. richmondfisherhouse.org.

Online condolences may be sent to: j_bache@hotmail. com.

Sealing Your Driveway Saves Money Driveways donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t last forever. However, sealing your driveway can sometimes double its life and significantly improve its appearance.

Asphalt driveways are basically made of crushed stone, sand, and oil as a binder. Over time, exposure to the sun dries the asphalt and depletes it from its essential oils.

When the asphalt dries, it begins to crack. When cracks form, they hold moisture which can freeze in the winter months.

When the water freezes, it expands and the cracks get bigger leading to

Hanover County Animal Control is checking for dog tags Contributed Report news@mechlocal.com Animal Control officers are enforcing Hanover County’s requirement that all dogs four months of age and older are licensed. All dogs and cats four months of age and older must be vaccinated for rabies as required by law.

“We are especially vigilant in neighborhoods that we’ve gotten calls and concerns in,” Kevin M. Kilgore, chief of Animal Control, said. “We try to be proactive and help keep our community safe from both free-roaming animals and rabies.”

All dogs four months of

age and up are required to have tags and a valid license, which indicates to everyone that the animal has been vaccinated for rabies, a deadly disease that is untreatable in animals and is fatal in 100 percent of occurrences.

There have been more than 190 cases of rabies in Hanover County in the last 10 years, with 77 cases of animals here being infected with rabies in the last three years. Seven cases have been confirmed so far this year, involving two raccoons, four skunks and house cat that attacked a female.

“The bottom line is that people need to have their pets licensed and vaccinated,”

Kilgore said. “It’s a public health and safety issue.”

You may be fined $25 for failing to purchase a dog tag.

A license costs only $6 for one year, $11 for two years and $15 for three years with a valid rabies vaccination throughout each period. They are on sale throughout the year and must be on the dog at all times.

Dog licenses are sold at the county treasurer’s office and at 10 additional locations throughout the county.

For more information on purchasing a dog tag, visit http://www.co.hanover.va.us/ treasurer/etc-dog.htm Any dog found without a valid Hanover dog tag is con-

sidered “unlicensed” until his owner can prove otherwise.

Wearing a tag of any kind also ensures that the Animal Control authorities know that may have a legal owner and may greatly assist Animal Control if the dog or cat does happen to get lost or stolen.

“If people would simply put a tag on their pet, then it would help us save the lives of animals every year,” Kilgore said.

For more information, call Hanover County Animal Control at 365-6485.

Information about rabies Rabies is a preventable viral disease that infects the central nervous system, caus-

ing encephalopathy (altered brain function and/or structure) and ultimately death (www.cdc.gov/rabies/about. html). It is usually transmitted in saliva by the bite of an animal that has the disease (you cannot get rabies from blood).

Only mammals can get rabies.

Snakes, fish, birds and other animals that are not mammals do not acquire rabies (www. cdc.gov/ncidod/dvrd/kidsrabies/FastFacts/rabies.htm).

Animals that have the virus may not act normally. Some may act very aggressively and others may appear tame and harmless. You can’t determine if an animal has rabies by looking at them or observing their

behavior.

When a person is bitten, the Health Department may recommend testing or observation of the biting animal, if it is available. In situations where the suspect animal cannot be located the Health Department may recommend rabies prophylaxis.

Rabies prophylaxis is a treatment that may prevent rabies in humans if administered before symptoms develop.

The following steps can be taken to prevent rabies.

- Make sure that cats and dogs get and stay vaccinated.

- Never approach or play with wild animals.

- Avoid contact with strays.

- Properly secure trash and pet food so that it does not attract wild animals.

- If bitten, wash the wound well with soap and water, report the incident as soon as possible to Animal Control and the Health Department, and seek medical attention.

- Encourage children not to approach stray or wild animals.

For more information, call the Hanover County Health Department or Hanover County Animal Control or visit www.vdh.virginia.gov/ Epidemiology/DEE/Rabies/.

Watson leaves with an emotional farewell 36-year member of Hanover County School Board praised for commitment to education

By Jim Ridolphi for The Mechanicsville Local As the school year winds down for 2012, last week’s Hanover County School Board meeting featured a succession of recognitions and remembrances.

Members were joined by a full house audience and were treated to a live band performance to begin the evening’s festivities.

The board also recognized the state runner-up softball team from Patrick Henry High School, the state champion Atlee High School Club Soccer team and winners from the county’s annual contest. Metro Science Fair winners, the ARC Award winners and Academy of Science finalists were announced and introduced.

Students also displayed their winning entries from this year’s Conservation Art Contest.

As students began to pack up for the summer, the meeting also was the last installment of a 36-year career for veteran School Board member Sue Forbes Watson. The significance of her last meeting was not lost on fellow members or special guests

Del. John Cox, R-55, said he and Watson have a special kinship. “My brother, my sister-in-law, my mother have all spent their lives in education,” he said. “I was the black sheep in the family.

I got into the trucking business early on. Therein lies the kinship. That’s the background that Sue Watson came from and that kinship formed a special friendship over the years.”

Cox said he often boasts at the General Assembly of Hanover’s excellence in public education, and a large part of that credit goes to Watson. “It’s the best school system in the Commonwealth of Virginia.”

After 36 years of extemporary service, Cox said Watson’s shoes would be hard ones to fill.

“Sue, you are going to leave a big void,” Cox said.

“That chair will be filled, but it will never be filled with the likes of Sue Watson.

Ashland Mayor Faye Prichard also praised Watson’s education excellence and lamented her loss on the board. “I don’t know what we’ll do without you,” Prichard said.

Watson received proclamations from Ashland Town Council and the School Board, as well as a letter of appreciation from U.S. Sen. Mark

Warner, D-Va. Watson thanked her fellow board members, and urged them to continue their passion for excellence in Hanover schools.

“People on this School Board are the most dedicated, smart, talented. Every decision this district makes is based on what is good for the children,” Watson said.

She noted that 95 percent of Virginia’s children attend public schools.

“If you want to make a difference in the lives of children, then commit to and be involved in our public schools,” Watson said. “Quality public schools are the most important thing that we can give our present and future generations.”

In typical Sue Forbes Watson style, she made all the members commit to future performances in the Ashland Music and Variety Show by signing a contract.

In other matters, the board approved a new evaluation system for teachers. The revised system evaluates established teachers on a threeyear cycle.

Brennan Elizabeth Sigel was named the county’s 2013 Teacher of the Year candidate.

County looks to get out of Voting Rights Act

By Jim Ridolphi for The Mechanicsville Local The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was designed to eliminate discrimination associated with minority voting throughout the South, and Hanover County is one of many localities governed by those guidelines.

Almost 50 years later, Mechanicsville District supervisor Canova Peterson said those safeguards are no longer necessary and introduced a motion to begin the process of excluding the county from the act’s regulations.

Peterson said the regulations are an unnecessary burden on county resources and results in countless hours of needless paperwork.

“There’s no reason for us to have to go through the reports and have them looking over our shoulder like this,” Peterson said at last Wednesday’s regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors.

He said the issue of terminating the regulations arose when the county decided to move three precincts earlier in the year.

The new voting sites required U.S. Justice Department approval, and none were available in time for last week’s primary.

The Department of Justice approval is required when considering the majority of voting issues, including location of polling places and redistricting.

“We’ve come a long way since then,” Peterson said. “I don’t deny the need for the act at the time, but Hanover County learned and grew quickly and we have years and years of working for all of our citizens to make everything available and accessible for everybody to be

said. “There are procedures for us getting out from under the federal government’s thumb regarding electoral issues.”

Ernest Mason, secretary of the county’s Electoral Board, endorsed Peterson’s motion to initiate action to “bail out” of the DOJ oversight.

“I want to stress to you our support of this move on your part,” Mason said. “We’ve been trying for years to get this process started. You can imagine the time and effort it takes (to

able to participate in the electoral process.”

Hanover joins about 20 other Virginia localities in seeking the exemption, which is allowed through a 1982 amendment to the law.

“We’re certainly just as open and as fair as any community in the Commonwealth,” Peterson

Memorial golf outing to be New worship pastor starts held June 28 at Crossings program geared to youth Contributed Report news@mechlocal.com

Contributed Report news@mechlocal.com The 22st Annual Robert A. Martin Jr. Memorial Golf Outing will be held on Thursday, June 28, at The Crossings.

The annual event celebrates the life of Bobby Martin, who was a founding partner and president of Colortree Inc. of Virginia until his death in August 1990.

Proceeds from the event usually go to the Robert A. Martin Jr. Memorial Scholarship Fund, which was created in 1997 by the Envelope Manufacturers Association Foundation for Education and Research.

Each year, the $3,500 Robert A. Martin, Jr. Memorial Scholarship typically is presented to a deserving student at Bobby’s Alma Mater, Benedictine High School.

This year’s proceeds, however, will be donated to help pay medical costs for Kirk Rohle, a Hampden-Sydney College student severely burned while saving a friend.

Kirk’s father, Ken Rohle, is a childhood friend of Bobby Martin.

Kirk Rohle was in critical but stable condition, and his Mechanicsville neighbor, Ben Rogers, was in good condition at MCV Medical Center.

Anchor Baptist Church at 7291 Atlee Road has welcomed a new worship pastor, Ryan Card.

A 2008 graduate of LeeDavis High School, Card recently graduated from Liberty University with a bachelor’s degree in worship ministry.

He said he is “so excited, privileged and blessed to be the new worship leader at Anchor.

God is doing amazing things at our church and I am anxious to be a part of our growth moving forward.”

Card said his vision for the church is “to be a light in Mechanicsville. As the moon CARD reflects the sun giving light in the darkness of the night, so we should reflect the Son shining light into the darkness of our world.”

In joining the church, Card has helped to kick off

a new youth program called Contagion.

He said its purpose is “to train youth with passion and purpose to proclaim the gospel of Christ.”

Contagion meets at 7:01 p.m. on Wednesdays. Card said they will gather throughout the summer in a casual atmosphere filled with fun, music, food and worship.

According to Card, Contagion officially begins tonight.

A “calling” is how Hanover County School Board chairman John F. Axelle III described outgoing Ashland District member Sue Forbes Watson’s passion for public education.

Axelle made the remark during Thursday’s retirement party for Watson at Randolph-Macon College’s Brock Center.

Watson is ending her tenure on the School Board this month after serving for 36 years.

Axselle called his colleague is passionate about the arts and education.

“But her number one passion is to offer all kids an opportunity for a quality education,”

Axelle said. “It’s a real calling for her.”

Axelle called Watson an education “evangelist,” an appropriate moniker for someone who majored in religion and English at Duke University.

“I was able to study and try to understand Christian ethics,” Watson said. “But the calling is more to be able to be involved in something that important. I

hope I can still continue to be an advocate for all children.”

Educators, government leaders, friends and family came out to honor Watson on her special night. In that mix was Dr. William C. Bosher Jr., who began his career in education as an English teacher at J.R. Tucker High School at the same time that Watson began her career as an English teacher at Hermitage High School.

“She’s always been outstanding and [a] smart lady, committed, ton of energy,” Bosher said of Watson. “But today a rare person who’s had the energy and fidelity to the schools to stay and contribute extremely well as long as she has . . .”

Henry District School Board member Earl J. Hunter Jr. hasserved with Watson for 21 years and said there is no one like her. “I mean, Sue has a wealth of knowledge.

Information submitted by Tom Harris, Hanover County public information officer.

Pens, pencils and other writing instruments play an integral role in schools. However, many of these tools end up lost or in the trash every day.

Teachers and students at Battlefield Park Elementary School are working to prevent garbage from ending up in landfills and raise money for their school. They can accomplish both simply by collecting pens, markers and other writing instruments through a company called, TerraCycle. Their perseverance has paid off, as they have recently been named one of America’s Top 100 writ-

ing instrument collectors, having raised a good amount of money for their school.

Battlefield Park has collected more than 1,811 writing utensils from their classrooms since they started collecting in 2011.

They plan to use the money they collect to purchase new technology such as SmartBoards ™ and LCD projectors for classroom instruction to benefit all students, staff and families at Battlefield Park.

“The concept of upcycling and recycling teaches our community a great lesson about taking care of our

planet. Additionally, there are some really innovative products that can be made, all while still raising money for our school,” said Richard Troxel, Battlefield Park Elementary School group leader.

The Writing Instrument Brigade is more than just a way for students and teachers at Battlefield Park to raise money for worthwhile causes — it also assists in the education and awareness of recycling and giving back to communities.

School will be out soon and vacation time is anticipated by most, if not all, children.

Moms and dads are planning or have planned a vacation for their family. Many will be planning trips out of state—to the beach or river and perhaps trips to local amusement parks, museums, and fairs. We at Hanover Friends Evangelical Church have also planned a trip which we’d like to invite you to. It’s a free trip and includes a dinner feast on the first night (for the entire family) with snacks to follow for the rest of the trip for the children. You need not bring a suitcase on this trip because we will provide the appropriate clothing. The trip is for five days and reservations are a must.

We are cordially inviting you to join us at this exciting Vacation Bible School where your children will learn about Daniel’s Courage in Captivity in Babylon. The dates for this trip will be July 9-13, 2012, designed especially for children 4 years old through 5th grade. Dinner on the first night will be at 5:45 pm with the trip commencing at 6:30 pm. Registration and reservations are required. Our tour will take your children back to the days of Daniel while he was in captivity. They will see how Daniel lived under much stress into a foreign land. He was given a new name, a new diet, saw his friends thrown in a fiery furnace and then, the ultimate test, he was thrown in a den of hungry lions. What an exciting adventure for your children, and it’s all free.

The best vacation for you, mom and dad, is a couple of hours of quality time together; a time to maybe go on a quiet date; go for a drive since the days are longer, or perhaps go for a quiet walk in a park. All of this while we take care of your children on this adventure for a whole week.

Sgt. Chris R. Whitley of the Hanover County Sheriff ’s Office said Richard E. Lawrence Jr., 56, of the 7400 block of Newtown Road in St. Stephens Church, Virginia, has been arrested.

He was taken to VCU Medical Center for treatment of injuries received in the wreck.

Dr. Jamelle S. Wilson, superintendent of Hanover County Public Schools, spoke in a similar vein. “Actually, I’ve had the opportunity to work with Sue directly probably for about nine years as an assistant superintendent and this year as superintendent and so I have a great appreciation and respect for Sue.” Chickahominy District representative Robert L. Hundley Jr. said it has been “fantastic” to serve with Watson. “She is just number one, a wealth of knowledge. Number two, a wealth of experience and just an unbelievable encourager. She’s a caring public education advocate to the inth degree and she just is a very loving and caring and dedicated person and that rubs off and it’s very infectious to all of us.”

PHHS grad raising funds, awareness in cross-country ride While most college students spend their summer vacation relaxing at the beach or working a day job, Hayden Hughes had quite a different idea.

The Patrick Henry High School graduate is spending his summer biking across America.

A rising sophomore at James Madison University, he came up with the idea during his junior year of high school to ride the TransAmerica Bicycle Trail from Virginia Beach to the Oregon coast.

Hughes is riding under the theme of “From Sea to Shining Sea” and raising money for LMS (Leiomyosarcoma) in honor of a long-time family friend, Will E. “Web” Buchanan III, who died in October 2009 after battling LMS. The rare form of cancer destroys involuntary muscles such as the stomach and intestines.

Hughes left on May 13 from the sandy shores of Virginia Beach to begin a journey in which he had little idea of what to expect along the way or how long his trip would last.

State by state, Hughes has been racking up the miles in his 4,300-mile trek across America. The Local caught up

with Hughes by phone last week while he was riding his bike.

He was passing through Pueblo, Colo., just south of Colorado Springs. He had just met up with his older brother Tyler, who lives and works parttime in Colorado. Hughes got the chance to meet a rancher in Sugar City, Colo., who let him go bull riding for the first time.

Hughes said his favorite part of the trip has been that he never knows what to expect next.

“Probably just never knowing what’s going to happen today is the best part,” Hughes said. “Like I literally just wake up and go, not knowing where I’m going to sleep, or how far I’m going to ride, or what I’m going to see.”

He said he has encountered some interesting people along the way and loves being able to couch surf and meet friendly families who are willing to help him. Hughes loves camping out as well.

“I just crash whenever I get tired,” Hughes said. “I never know where I’m staying the next night. Ditches are my home. I brought a tent, but I don’t normally set it up. The hammock is my favorite.”

He has enjoyed taking in some scenery along the way and the journey really began when

he arrived in Colorado.

“Yesterday was basically the beginning of my bike trip honestly,” Hughes said. “The first five states were just me trying to get to the cool states. I’ve been through five states in less than a month, so less than a week per state average.”

Hughes rides a used bike purchased from VCU student and fellow biker Tyler Arnold, who works at Old Towne Bicycles in Ashland. He said he has been offered car rides

by locals, but turns them down most of the time.

“People have offered me rides, but I don’t take them,” Hughes said. “I’ve ridden in cars with people, just hanging out and riding around town and going to Walmart because I don’t know where everything is.”

Hughes is still trying to figure out how he will get back to Virginia once he reaches the Oregon coast in mid-July.

Randy Beasley, Dwayne Hall, Froggy Cecil, Mac Cecil, Chris Wells and Cory Tribble won the cornhole tournament at the 2nd annual Cornhole & Rock N Roll event to benefit the ReeseStrong Foundation.

Constance Powhatan May 28, 2012

ReeseStrong fundraiser a success The 2nd annual Cornhole & Rock N Roll event to benefit the ReeseStrong Foundation attracted many participants on Saturday, June 9, at Marty’s Grill.

ReeseStrong was established to help local families stay strong in the battle against childhood cancer.

Kristin Mudd, one of the organizers, said the day kicked off with The Inside Out band taking the outdoor stage. Other bands performed, including Full Plate, The Trongone Band and More Beer. Age Of Excess closed out the night with 1980s favorites.

Fifty-three teams took part in the cornhole tournament, which had a $500 cash prize. The competition ended with

a match-up between “Da Ville Boys” and “Team Cecil.” When it was over, “Team Cecil” — Mac and Froggy Cecil — edged out “Da Ville Boys” — Randy Beasley, and Dwayne Hall to win the cornhole tournament. Chris Wells, and Cory Tribble of team “2 nuts tossing sacks” came in third place. All three teams donated back the cash prizes, totaling $850, adding to the proceeds collected to support the ReeseStrong Foundation.

“Many thanks go out to our sponsors for Cornhole & Rock N Roll: Sheetz, Superior Image, Brown Distributing and Loveland all contributed to our event,” Mudd said. “We extend a tremendous thanks to the Marty’s Grill staff for taking care of the huge crowd. None of this would have been possible without

the help from our dedicated volunteers, thank you.”

“In the end,” she continued, “we accomplished what we always set out to do: gather a smiling crowd, have a blast, and raise a ton of money that will go directly to local families battling cancer.”

ReeseStrong’s next event will be the Moriah McNeil Golf tournament on July 13. The annual ReeseStrong 5K and Gold Ribbon Kids Run is scheduled for Sept. 15 in the Rutland community in Mechanicsville. On Oct. 1, they will be hosting the ReeseStrong Golf Classic.

ReeseStrong is an all-volunteer organization that supports childhood cancer research and families who are battling the disease. For more information, visit www.

Commemoration to mark events that changed war Contributed Report news@mechlocal.com One hundred fifty years ago this very week, residents of Hanover County had tens of thousands of guests, mostly unwanted, a massive Union army commanded by Gen. George B. McClellan was encamped in the farm fields along both sides of the Chickahominy River.

In the spring of 1862, the eyes of the world were on Richmond and Hanover County as more than 100,000 Federal soldiers marched up the Virginia Peninsula with the intention of taking the Confederate capital and ending the war.

With a string of Union victories in Kentucky and Tennessee and the capture of New Orleans – and with the largest army ever assembled on the continent bearing down on Richmond – Northern leaders were hopeful. Men in McClellan’s army expected to spend the 4th of July in the streets of Richmond.

And thousands of enslaved African Americans were fleeing to Union lines seeking freedom.

Instead, in one war-changing week, McClellan’s campaign had ended in failure, and at enormous cost. The two armies lost a combined total of 35,000

men. The Battle of Gaines’ Mill in Hanover County alone involved more than 100,000, 15,000 of whom became the largest single-day loss of the war so far.

Far from ending, the war was transformed. The new commander of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia – Robert E. Lee – had seized the initiative. Northern leaders issued a call for tens of thousands of new troops and began to craft a document that would become the Emancipation Proclamation.

Two months after what would become known as the Seven Days’ Battles, Lee’s army was across the Potomac and into Maryland.

Richmond National Battlefield Parks’ Sesquicentennial events in Hanover County include: l Living History Weekend at Gaines’ Mill Battlefield from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, June 23-24 — The event will feature living history demonstrations, ranger-guided tours and commemorative programs.

ber, said she will miss Watson.

“I’m going to miss her advocacy for Ashland and everything Ashland. Sue single-mindedly knew that what was best for Ashland was best for the school system.”

John E. Gordon Jr. had the opportunity to work with Watson as a member of the School Board and a county supervisor representing the South Anna District. He also said that the manner in which Watson approached public service stands out to him.

“Sue was not there to advance a particular agenda, to represent a particular group of people,” Gordon said. “Sue was

always concerned and worked for the entire school population.

Every child is important to Sue Watson and every child has a potential that they deserve an opportunity to achieve. That’s Sue Watson’s philosophy and she not only had that philosophy, but she lived it. She worked to make that happen. And I will tell you, the citizens of Hanover County will never fully realize the impact that Sue Watson had on the lives of the kids that went through the Hanover County Public School system.”

Ashland Mayor Faye O. Prichard had high praise for Watson, who she called a “dear friend.” “We have in this town a core group of people that when you need to get something done, you say, ‘Call . . .’ and Sue

Watson’s at the very top of that list along with a very few other people. She’s enthusiastic. She’s kind. But she’s a believer. She’s a believer in this town and this county and if you want somebody who really believes in [not only] who we are, but the future of who we will be, that’s always Sue Watson.”

In addition to education, the Ashland Musical Variety Show is another of Watson’s passions.

Watson was happy that her daughters, Susan Watson Hatchett of Bethesda, Md., and Jane Forbes Watson Fields of Greensboro, N.C., were able to attend the party.

“It’s wonderful that everyone has gathered to honor her service and to look towards the future, see what she’s going to do in the future,” said Hatchett, a 1992 graduate of Patrick Henry High School.

“I just think it’s very meaningful that all these people — the Hanover community and their children — have been touched in a way by mom’s dedication to the schools because I think she’s made a real impact,”

“Well, you know, it’s immensely gratifying to me, but I’m not surprised,” he said. “She’s fully deserving of this and you can tell the atmosphere from this thing is so genuine. That’s what I think

is so wonderful.”

Dr. Stewart D. Roberson, who worked with Sue Watson for 16 years during his tenure as superintendent of Hanover County Public Schools, was succinct in praising her. “Anyone who interacts with Sue Forbes Watson knows that she will hold you extremely accountable for doing what is right for public

schools.”

Sue Watson said her “husband and some good friends have encouraged me to try to figure out ways to be possibly a stronger advocate, more outspoken, use my experience in different ways.”

“There is nothing that I’m moving away from,” she continued. “And Hanover schools are so wonderful and our board and all the people you work with are so wonderful.”

Sue Forbes Watson told the crowd that her concern for the quality of education for all children was heartfelt.

“That’s the reason our public schools are so important,” she said. “That every child, regardless of his skills, disability, interests, potential, the home, environment, economic level – whatever – every child walks into our door and we have caring, expert teachers and principals, instructional leaders, resources who are deliberate and focused on helping that child be the very best he can be. And that’s a huge deal for that family, that child, and for our world.”

Hughes said. “Shooting stars and sleeping in the hammock.

This is the life, man. I feel like a cowboy.”

Hughes had one lasting thought he wanted to share, a quote he has adopted for his journey: “How can you ever be old and wise, if you were never young and wild.”

In addition to raising money to help pay for travel expens-

es, Hayden said he hopes the majority of money raised will go towards helping raise awareness about LMS. If you would like to sponsor him by the mile, or by making a flat donation to his expenses, or for LMS, you can donate safely online by going to the “Donate Here” page at hanovertool.com or click “Donate” on Hanover Tool’s Facebook page. More than $6,000

has been donated to the cause.

Hanover Tool is a sponsor of Hayden’s ride for LMS research and will be paying all credit card processing fees. That enables your entire donation to go to LMSarcoma.

Direct Research Checks, payable to Hayden Hughes, can be sent to: Hanover Tool Inc., 10417 Dow-Gil Rd., Ashland VA 23005.

Washington, D.C. But most of the required legwork can be accomplished in-house, including DOJ visits and community outreach and contact, according to Rives.

The motion receives unanimous support from the board.

In other matters, chairman Ed Via ended weeks of speculation on who would replace Sue

Forbes Watson as the Ashland representative on the School Board by naming Hank Lowry to that post.

“As it should be, there has been considerable public interest in this post,” Via said.

“This is not an election, so there is no candidate forum nor is it a decision made by a tally of the greater number of calls and letters and support.

The decision is too important for that.”

Lowry said he knows he had big shoes to fill. “Mrs. Watson has left a wonderful legacy, one that I hope I can preserve and enhance,” he said.

Robert Hundley was reappointed by Chickahominy District supervisor Angela Kelly-Wiecek to the School Board.

Post 175 continues dusting the opposition At 5-0, Legion team has yet to give up a run

By Charlie Leffler cleffler@mechlocal.com The starting pitchers for the American Legion Post 175 baseball team have made a improbable pact. They are each trying not to be the first pitcher to allow an opponent to score.

“We’ve already made a deal, they miss their first start if they give up a run,” said Michael Thomas. “I guess that’s why we’re trying not to give it up.”

Five games into the schedule, they are well on their way, having shut out every opponent they’ve faced.

“I wouldn’t want to be a pitcher that gives up the first run,” Post 175 coach Eddie Gates laughed. “He’ll get a little razing.”

Thomas did his part, starting on the mound in a Father’s Day matchup on Sunday, as Mechanicsville downed last year’s District 11 champions, Post 361, 14-0.

“It will be tough on that one pitcher that gives up the run,” Thomas said.

The VCU committed player struck out eight and gave up four hits in six innings of work in a game he admittedly started slowly but got stronger as the game progressed.

“My arm was a little tight

starting out and then finally I loosened up, started being able to throw the fast ball with more velocity,” he said.

Thomas notched five Ks over his final three innings on the mound.

“That might have been one of the better outings I’ve seen him have all year,” Gates said.

“His curve ball was working.

His changeup was working.”

It was the team’s third straight 7-inning game in a week where Post 175 outscored their opponents 47-0. On the season, Mechanicsville has scored 59 runs.

Even a roster shortened by Beach Week could not slow Mechanicsville down as the substitutes made the most of their starting roles.

The Mechanicsville Local June 20, 2012

Bryant Lowry filled in for Mitch Keeler behind the plate and Gates gave him credit for the shut out of 361.

“Bryant Lowry called a good game,” Gates said. “Coaches don’t call the pitches. We’re letting the catchers call the pitches.”

Lowry also contributed at the plate going 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI, two runs and a steal.

Though it has become their trademark, the player’s minds are not constantly on getting shutouts.

“We don’t think about it during the game,” said short stop Andrew Knizner. “We’re more of a process oriented team and we go out there and do things right, throw strikes,

www.mechlocal.com See slideshow online!

attack hitters, swing the bat well and that’s kind of end result.”

In his first year with Post 175, Knizner has made an immediate impact. Having already committed to play at NC State, Knizner chose to play closer to home this season with former teammates and rivals.

He has also shown he is a natural leader on the field.

“That’s just a part of my personality,” he said. “I played quarterback. I played short stop my whole life and in the middle of that (field) you have to help lead the team out here. They do their part, do their job. There’s a lot of leaders on this team. It’s real great.”

As has been their trend, Post 175 jumped on the scoreboard quickly against Post 361 sidearm hurler Dylan Gonzales.

With one out in the top of the first, Knizner reached on an error and advance to second when Thomas singled up the middle. A groundout to short

by Ryan Bettinger put both in scoring position and Lowry’s double to the corner of left field sent them home.

Lowry then scored on a single from Conner Hall for a 3-0 lead.

But Post 175 wasn’t done.

Hall stole second, reached third on a wild pitch and scored on a Bryan Johansen single to put

Mechanicsville up 4-0, an unenviable position for any opponent facing a squad that has yet to give up a run.

“That’s how we want to attack them,” Gates said. “Put the pressure on them to score against us.”

Any lapse in 175’s game seemed to come after the quick lead.

After scoring four in the top of the first, Mechanicsville went three-and-out in their next three at bats.

“I think we started swinging at some pitches that were out of the zone,” Gates said.

Soccer is on the rise in Hanover County

By David Halstead For The Mechanicsville Local Thanks to many dedicated volunteers and coaches in local soccer leagues and teams, a spike in youth participation has been noticed. Starting them off at a young age is what Richmond Kickers player Ross Mackenzie says is the key to success.

“I think Hanover and Mechanicsville in particular have always been a place where players have come to play,” Mackenzie said.

Mackenzie, along with a handful of other Kickers players and coaches are offering two youth clinics in July that allow young children to come and enjoy the sport and get coached on fundamentals of the game.

The Kickers are holding two free clinics for talented 6-8 year olds in Hanover County. The first will be held at Pole Green Park on Wednesday, July 18 from 6-7 p.m. and the second will be at Hanover Courthouse

offense back in the top of the fifth after Zach Broaddus (2for-3, 3 runs, RBI) led off with a double to the fence in left.

Broaddus moved to third on sacrifice bunt by Chad Woodell then scored when a throw back to the mound went awry.

One inning later, 175 exploded for seven runs on six hits.

Lowry singled to right then advanced to second when Gonzalez dropped a bunt popup from Hall. Lowry tried to steal third and the throw to Will Black went into left, allowing Lowry to score.

Hall, Patrick Holler, Broaddus and Chris Childress all scored off RBI hits to push the lead to 12-0.

Park the following Wednesday, July 25 from 6-7 p.m.

The clinics are being held to promote the ADP program which is an advanced skills program for 6-8 year olds and will also be coached by Kickers pro players. This is an eight week program that will be held at Pearson’s Corner Elementary School on Tuesdays and Thursdays for eight weeks this fall beginning in September.

“I have seen that Hanover County is a hot bed for talent and there are a lot of good players there,” Mackenzie said.

“So, we thought it would be a good idea to offer some free clinics just so the kids can come out and meet some of our pro players and get a little more instruction and insight into what our ADP program that we are going to offer at Pearson’s Corner would be like for them.”

Similar programs are already established in the Richmond area, but this is the first time that the Kickers

have come to the Hanover and Mechanicsville area.

“We have programs in the West End, Southside, and some programs out at Poor Farm Park as well,” Mackenzie said.

“We thought this was kind of an area of town where we hadn’t really gotten involved with yet.”

ADP is the bridge between Recreational and Travel soccer and Mackenzie, who is the director of the ADP/U9 program, said that this year 80 percent of the U9 Travel players were former ADP participants.

“I think the camps and the ADP programs are a great starter program for kids in Hanover County,” Mackenzie said. “To get them into an environment where they are learning from very good players, and good coaches, they are learning the fundamentals of the game and improving at a rapid rate.”

Mackenzie attributes the nationwide rise of interest in soccer to younger kids being able to watch older siblings compete and he says that it

“We got back into hitting strikes, swinging at pitches, situations when we had people in scoring position,” Gates said. “I think we have four or five hits today with two strikes, which is great. That’s battling, especially when you’ve got people in scoring position. Those two strike hits, they scored the runs.”

Mechanicsville added two more in the top of the seventh.

Holler punched a single into right to drive in Johansen then he himself scored on a wild pitch.

Even when 361 got runners on, the Post 175 defense made big plays to end threats.

Cole Hyman led off the bottom of the first with a hit but was then picked off by Thomas on a throw to first. In the second, Thomas walked Black but Lowry caught the runner when

he attempted to steal second.

In the fourth, Holler made a diving catch in right to end a threat.

Post 175 will be put to the test this week with three of their four games coming against teams that are dangerous. On Wednesday they travel to Patrick Henry to take on Post 206 for a 7 p.m. contest. The following night they will be in Powhatan to face off a team whose roster includes players from Division AA state champion Powhatan and Division AAA semifinalist James River. If that wasn’t a hard enough week, on Saturday Mechanicsville plays as yet undefeated Post 125 in a noon contest at Shepherd Stadium.

“We’re still going to have four or five people at Beach Week,” Gates said. “We’re just going to have to play them with

helps fuel a passion for soccer in the next generation.

“I think Richmond is a soccer town,” Mackenzie said.

“There is a pro team here and the amount of soccer that you see on TV now, along with the amount of kids playing, it has kind of taken over as a more popular sport. I think it is growing nationwide. I don’t think it is just a Richmond thing.”

With the soccer skills of youth in Hanover growing, a chain reaction has been noticed in the quality of play by local middle and high school teams.

The Kickers hope that this camp and the ones to be held in the future will keep Mechanicsville on the map as a soccer town.

“I think it will be great for the development of soccer in Hanover County in general if

we can get the kids out there at a young age and get the fundamentals down,” Mackenzie said. “Getting them really passionate and enjoying the game, I think you will see that as they get older.”

More information on the upcoming camps can be found on the Kickers’ website, http:// www.richmondkickers.com/ youth/ADP/index_E.html.

Bobby Lutz offers hoops advice: Fit in For NC State assistant coach, college basketball is about finding the right fit

By Charlie Leffler cleffler@mechlocal.com Nearly every local high school basketball player dreams about continuing their career in college and then going on to the professional ranks. For many, such dreams will always remain no more than dreams while others actually have a chance to fulfill that fantasy.

While most players think the only way to find basketball success is through a major college, according to North Carolina State University Associate Men’s Basketball Coach Bobby Lutz, the path to such fulfillment is rarely as predictable as the end goal. For Lutz, above all else the important thing is finding the right fit.

Last month, Lutz stopped in Richmond, as part of a Wolfpack Caravan tour, to talk to a large group of alumni that live in Central Virginia. Lutz, who just wrapped up his first season at NC State, was filling in for men’s head coach basket-

ball coach Mark Gottfreid who was committed elsewhere.

“I’m excited to do it,” he said. “We’re just one piece of the Wolfpack puzzle, but being the newest piece and being in basketball, which is pretty high profile obviously, we want to be out there as much as we can just to let the fans see us and get to know us a little bit. They’d rather see Mark but he can’t be everywhere.”

Lutz is familiar with the city, most recently due to his work as the head coach for UNC Charlotte, which made several trips to town to play Atlantic-10 games against the University of Richmond. “It’s a great basketball city,” Lutz said.

While some may discount the impact of an assistant coach, there is no question that Lutz’s presence at NC State helped Gottfried complete an amazing single-season turnaround for the Wolfpack. Lutz scouted every game last season, which carried them into the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 for the first time since 2005. The team also recorded 24 wins, the most since 1998.

Charlie Leffler/The Local

While in Richmond last month, NC State Associate Men’s Basketball Coach Bobby Lutz, center, spoke to Wolfpack alumni Bill Cooper, left, and Dan Houffman, right. Lutz also offered advice for young basketball players who dream of success beyond high school.

“We really exceeded most experts and probably most everyone’s expectations, coming in, inheriting a team that had never won,” Lutz said. “None of these guys had won more than five league games in any year that they’d played.”

NC State was far from the

first time that Lutz found success on the basketball court.

He has successfully coached at nearly every level of college basketball from NAIA to midmajor to the ACC. As such, Lutz knows the importance of finding the right fit. Even as a walk-on, not every player can fit

Bryan Trophy is the focus for Deep Run Horse Show riders

By Dave Lawrence For The Local A horse country tradition – the Deep Run Horse Show – returns to the Deep Run Hunt Club in Manakin Sabot this week. The show, featuring a host of equestrian events and local riders begins Wednesday and ends Sunday.

Visitors may be overwhelmed with what to focus on: with horses and riders competing in more than 150 events over the five days of the show, there is a lot to see. But for the participants,

40

most of the focus will be on the Bryan Trophy competition, which has achieved legendary status since it began in 1962.

“It’s an equitation class for junior riders,” said 16year-old Margaret Luck of Maidens, Va., who hopes to become the 51st name on the list of winners. “I know that it attracts a lot of junior riders to compete in. The tradition keeps a lot of local people coming, and the size of the show gets a lot of people from the East Coast to compete.” see TROPHY, pg. 42 `

The Mechanicsville Local June 20, 2012

into high profile programs, in leagues like the ACC, Big East, SEC or Big 10.

“We have a tremendous number of guys that come and try to walk on and most of them don’t make it,” Lutz said.

“I always try to be painfully honest.”

Lutz himself was cut in his attempt to walk on at North Carolina Charlotte in 1976.

However, when he took over as head coach at tiny Pfeiffer College in 1986, Lutz learned that the size of the school does not determine the amount of future success in basketball.

“I had a guy (Antonio Harvey) play in the NBA for five years,” he said. “I had another kid, Tony Smith, play 18 years; a kid from Suffock (Va). They retired his jersey in Spain. He played 18 years professionally and made a load of money.”

To this day, Lutz uses both players as an example when talking with high school athletes who have big dreams. “What I

tell them, there’s nothing wrong with going to a Division II or even a Division III school, being a part of that and being on the floor,” he said. “Whereas, if you come to walk-on at State, and be important as a practice player, you’re never going to have the opportunity to have the role that you would have at a lower level.

“I try to be honest but also open,” Lutz said. “There’s nothing wrong with playing at another level. Find the right school- the right fit and go with it.”

For Lutz, players such as Harvey and Smith found professional success, not by being a part of major programs but by finding the right fit in college.

“What happens is, you get a young man who’s not quite ready to be a high Division I player, but if he goes to the right small school, maybe it’s a low D-I or a mid D-I, then he blossoms and you couple that with he has the opportunity of getting playing time.

“He plays as a freshman even though he’s maybe not quite ready, but he learns and gets better,” Lutz said.

Oftentimes such players are said to have slipped through the cracks, but Lutz defines them otherwise. “I don’t know that they slip through the cracks,” he said. “I think they just found the right opportunity and then maximized that and took their game to a different level. Had they gone to a bigger school, they may have never gotten into the game as much to develop that.

“It’s an inexact science,” Lutz said. “It’s really hard to say what’s right. You’ve got to go with your heart as a young player and listen to family and say, based on my faith and my family what do I think is the right choice for me.”

Lee-Davis/Randolph-Macon alum Jordan Walton signs with St. Louis R-MC standout picks up minor league contract Contributed report

Former Randolph-Macon College baseball standout and 2012 graduate Jordan Walton signed a minor league contract with the World Champion St. Louis Cardinals on Monday and will report to the Batavia Muckdogs, located in Batavia, New York immediately.

The Muckdogs (www. muckdogs.com) are members of the New York – Penn League which operates in the northeastern United States. It is classified as a “Short-Season A” league; its season starts in June, after major-league teams

TROPHY Continued from pg. 40 b

Unlike most of the other classes, which are judged on the horse’s ability to complete the jumping course, Luck said the Bryan Trophy competition presents more difficult jumps and – while the horse’s performance is important – is judged on how the rider presents herself.

“Judging is based on how smoothly you can make the course look, how easy you ride it, how you present yourself to the judge, how you complete your jumping course cleanly,” Luck said. “You have to get through the whole course without stopping or pulling rails.”

Ada Cosby, a trainer whose daughter Annie won the Bryan Trophy in 2009, described what the riders and horses go through.

“First they compete over fences,” Ada Cosby said. “Then they bring the riders back to compete on the flat, which is showing their skill without the jump. After that, they usually

The Muckdogs opened their season on June 18

when they played host to the Auburn Doubledays, which is an affiliate of the Washington Nationals.

Currently, the league

pick six of the riders to come back for further testing where they do a shorter, more difficult jumping course.”

The jumping course consists of a minimum of six fences no more than 3 feet, 6 inches high and 4 feet wide. The rider must navigate the course in an efficient and elegant manner. On the flat course, the rider guides the horse through a series of walks, trots and canters and may be required to demonstrate other aspects of horsemanship. Both components are scored on a 100-point scale.

“My daughter felt very privileged to be among the riders who have won it,” Ada Cosby said. “As you go back in history, some of the best riders in our industry were Bryan Trophy winners.”

Annie Cosby, a sophomore at Elon University, said what it felt like to win the trophy.

“The Deep Run Horse Show is local for us, so it was a big deal to go watch the Bryan Trophy,” Annie Cosby said.

“When I got to compete in it, I didn’t even really dream of

winning or even placing – I was just doing it for fun. It was on my last year that I could do it. When I won, it was kind of a huge surprise. … We had just finished the test when they announced the results. I was still really nervous, but it was really exciting.”

She said she was humbled by being able to claim membership in an elite club.

“That was the biggest thing about it,” Annie Cosby said.

“Being able to share that I won the same trophy in the same class as some people that I had looked up to growing up.”

The Deep Run Horse Show is one of three shows designated by the United States Equestrian Federation as a USEF Heritage Competition, the highest honor the federation awards to a show. While the Bryan Trophy is the highlight, top finishers in all events benefit from the show’s status within the industry.

“This one is a [USEF] ‘AA’ rated show,” Luck said.

“It means you can earn more points nationally though it.”

The Mechanicsville Local June 20, 2012

includes teams in seven different states. In addition to New York and Pennsylvania, from which the league draws its name, the NYPL also has clubs in Maryland, Massachusetts, Ohio, Vermont, and Connecticut.

Walton, a Lee-Davis graduate, becomes the second Yellow Jacket in six seasons to join a Major League organization and the third to play professionally during that time. In 2006, Travis Beazley was taken by the Boston Red Sox in the 38th round of the MLB Draft and played five seasons in the Red Sox system. 2011 graduate James Bierlein is in his second season with an independent team and currently pitching for the Trinidad Triggers (Colo.) in the Pecos League.

If the status and excitement of the show were not enough, the hospitality makes it a hit for participants and fans, Luck said. Hospitality is something that event organizers take very seriously.

“We are very well known for our hospitality,” said Betsy Tompkins, “AA” chairman for the Deep Run Horse Show Association. In addition to food and beverages, vendors on the show grounds will be offering a variety of arts, crafts and clothing.

Events begin each day at 8 a.m. Admission is free.

Proceeds from the show will benefit the Second Chances program run by the James River Chapter of the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation. The program, based at the James River Work Center, rescues retired racehorses from possible neglect, abuse or slaughter as well as teaches inmates elite grooming skills.

“What a tremendous and well deserved opportunity for Jordan,” said R-MC Head Coach Ray Hedrick. “It is nice to see such a high quality person like Jordan get a chance to pursue his childhood dream.

I have very little doubt that he will be successful. We are all very fortunate and proud to have him in our Yellow Jacket family.”

In a career that saw him achieve almost every honor in Division III Baseball, Walton was named an All-American for the second-time in as many years by the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) on May 31 and is the holder of almost every Randolph-Macon offensive record.

Walton, who was named a First-Team All-American by

the ABCA as a junior and a Preseason All-American pick prior to this season, won the 2012 ODAC Player of the Year award at the conclusion of the regular season.

ood afternoon, graduates, parents, faculty, and friends. It is my pleasure to bring you greetings on behalf of the Hanover County School Board. We are fortunate to have members of our school board with us today. These men and women dedicate their time and energy and talents to ensuring that our school division continues to provide the quality public education which has become the hallmark of Hanover County.

Specifically, I would like to acknowledge Mrs. Sue Forbes Watson from the Ashland District who has decided to retire this year. A member of our school board for the past 36 years, Mrs. Watson’s passion for young people and her commitment to public education in our community and state are genuine. Her boundless energy and enthusiasm are contagious. Having served for 36 years here in Hanover, the 3rd longest serving school board member in the state, Mrs. Watson’s presence on our school board will be missed; but her mark is indelibly etched in the fabric of Hanover County Public Schools. Please join me in thanking Mrs. Sue Forbes Watson for her dedicated service to Hanover County Public Schools.

To the class of 2012, congratulations on

A Special Supplement to The Mechanicsville Local

achieving what may likely be your fi nal milestone as a child. Your parents and loved ones celebrating with you today know that this is a huge moment in your lives, but perhaps it is an even bigger moment in their lives. They have seen you through several key events over the past twelve or thirteen years - your first day of kindergarten, your first report card, the middle school experience, 9th grade, your first date, the driver’s license, prom. Today it is my honor to thank your parents, on behalf of the Hanover County School Board, for allowing us the privilege of getting to know you as we have worked to ensure that you are prepared for the next chapter of your lives – whether that chapter includes post secondary education, the military, or the workplace.

By a show of hands, how many of you have a smartphone? Some statistics suggest that 46% of Americans and 27% of the world’s population own a smartphone. I know that many of you believe your smartphone – whether an iPhone, a Blackberry, or a Droid – may be your most valuable possession. If we leave home without our phones or misplace it somehow – we feel utterly lost.

Sometimes we even wonder what we would do without it!

HanoverCarpet &VinylShop Large enough to compete, small enough to care!

CONGRATS CLASS OF 2012!

Continued from page 2 have defi ned who you are as a young man or woman. If truth be told, all those things you learned as an elementary school child, as a middle school pre-teen and as an uncertain teenager have compounded to yield the wonderful result we see sitting before us today.

As we celebrate you as high school graduates, we acknowledge that while you began your time with us as “Palm Pilots”, with limited knowledge and limited experiences, you’ve developed into something more like a smartphone today.

The smartphone is boundless in capability.

There are endless functions available to us through our phones – GPS, maps, games, emails, contacts, calendars and calendar reminders, calculators, clock and stopwatch, text messages, social media, cameras, video, music, search engines. Its capacity seems limitless.

And so it is with each of you. While we will watch you complete another important milestone today as you receive your diploma, we know that it is only one in many others yet to come. Your potential is boundless.

Thomas Edison is attributed with this quote: “if we did all the things we were capable of doing, we would literally astonish ourselves.” Our wish for you as you graduate from Hanover County Public Schools is that you will do all the things you are capable of doing and literally astonish yourselves.

Congratulations!

Believe it or not, there was a time when the smartphones we enjoy today didn’t exist.

Before there was a smartphone with all its apps, there was the Palm Pilot. You may not be familiar with this gadget, but the Palm Pilot was the forerunner of the smartphone.

A machine about the size of your hand, the Palm Pilot was designed to manage only 4 functions – calendars, contacts, memos, and tasks. Th is technology was meant to improve our effectiveness and efficiency in completing day to day activities.

Just as the Palm Pilot was introduced to the world in 1994, so were many of you – many of you were born in 1994. Like the Palm Pilot, you came into the world equipped and prepared to manage only a few functions.

As a kindergartner, your focus may have been squarely on making new friends, learning to share, and getting used to the idea of learning centers in your classroom.

As you progressed through elementary school, your focus expanded to include “learning to read” and then, “reading to learn.”

Middle school allowed you to recall what you learned as an elementary school student and then to broaden your skill set to think critically and to become a problem-solver.

Just think about class changes and opening lockers for the first time!

The past four years as a high school student have allowed you to be creative, inquisitive and to take calculated risks as you
