Ahhh! The Fourth of July Ahhhh! The Fourth of July. The lazy days of summer are here with nothing better to do than relax, barbeque with the family, hang out with friends and take a vacation. Don’t worry, the grass can wait one more week. Two great birthdays happen on the Fourth of July. The first is our Country’s with the signing of the Declaration of Independence. On Abraham Lincoln’s inaugural journey to Washington, he stopped in Philadelphia at the site where the Declaration of Independence had been signed. In his speech at Independence Hall, Lincoln discusses how the Declaration of Independence incorporates his egalitarian ideals. “…I have never had a feeling politically that did not spring from the sentiments embodied in the Declaration of Independence. I have often pondered over the dangers which were incurred by the men who assembled here, and framed and adopted that Declaration of Independence…which gave liberty, not alone to the people of this country, but, I hope, to the world, for all future time….” So strong were Lincoln’s feelings for the Declaration of Independence that he once called it the father of all moral principle in men. The Constitution of the United States may be our law, but the Declaration of Independence is truly our heart and soul. The second great birthday is my father’s. John Tedeschi was born in New York on the 4th of July in 1933. The son of Sicilian immigrants, he ended up living the American dream. John’s father, my grandfather, died when he was 12 years old. His mother was in a sanatorium with tuberculosis so that left my dad to be raised alone in Brooklyn by his grandmother, Louise Capone, another Sicilian immigrant, who spoke no English. The two of them struggled to survive with my father leaving school to work full-time, never even graduating from junior high. He joined the Navy at 17 as a printing trainee. But, by the time his tour had ended, he had never even seen one of the Navy’s printing presses. Undaunted, my father’s career took him through several jobs including stints as a janitor in a carbon paper factory, as a letterpress apprentice and finally into a union job as a hot type composer and letterpress operator. After my parents married, my father was having a tough time finding employment in offset printing, which was taking over letterpress printing and making those jobs scarce. With a family of four to feed, he left New York for California with $100 in his pocket, money borrowed from family and friends. California was booming and my dad worked a night job July 2006

while teaching himself offset printing in the garage of the apartment building we lived in during the day. In 1964, he began Tedco Printing Company and built it into a multi-million dollar printing operation founded on the basic principles of hard-work, honesty and reliability. His shop was always neat and clean and literally built by the sweat of his brow. John Tedeschi loved living the American dream and what he relished most about it was that through his persistence and determination he was able to provide for his family what his ancestors were never able to provide for theirs. It was the promise that this country has always held for those that come here.

Thank God for July and its memorable holiday. I’m going to catch up on some reading and take an extra nap this weekend while visiting the in-laws. During the month I plan on enjoying a few baseball games, taking a vacation, bringing the little ones to the County Fair and get that workout going. Everything else can wait until August. — Tony Tedeschi

Cindy Siler will celebrate her 25th year as a Jazzercise franchise owner For you good people who exercise this October.

Using music from the current

Jazzercise Instructor Cindy Siler pop and jazz charts, participants are encouraged to go at their own pace, increasing their activity level as their stamina increases. Sandy Sigmon has been a devoted Jazzerciser for the past six years. She finds the music and exercise fun, and has really enjoyed the group dynamic. “I absolutely love it. I work in the school system, so I make sure to get in three classes a week during the school year. But this summer I’m bumping it up to four or five.” On Monday morning, 15 women pile in the Jazzercise building for the 9:30 class. A comforting familiarity seems to be shared between them, pleasantries and laughs are easily exchanged. But that all changes when Cindy gets on the stage to start the workout. Starting off with some cool warmup music from Steely Dan’s Donald Fagen, then easing into salsa and hip hop, the class comes to life. With the tag line, “It’s all about fun. (And fitting into your jeans.),” Jazzercise definitely practices what it preaches. See Healthy on Page 8

But they have to have commitment and discipline. Through patience, they will build up their energy,” says Master Lee.

Fauquierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fabulous Fair Largest ever opens Thursday, July 13th With the warm and sunny weather now upon us, Fauquier County residents are starting to look at their calendars to see when they can expect the county fair. Beginning July 13, the 56th annual Fauquier County Fair will commence with new attractions, singing and, of course, the same standards that have made the fair special every year. The fair is a memorable event in Fauquier County and the surrounding area as approximately 18,000 people attended over the 4 day period last year. The fair is run by a group of dedicated volunteers working for a non-profit organization here in the county. Six years ago, the fair moved from its old location behind the Fauquier Livestock Exchange to the new location on Old Auburn Road. Before the re-location, there were much less events at the fair. But since the move, the fair has become a booming affair for

Rides the people of Warrenton and Fauquier County. Because the town of Warrenton is growing quite steadily, the fair has been expanding just as quickly. When the fair first moved to the new location, only about 400 people were in attendance during the weekend. This year they are expecting about 15,000 to 20,000 people from all over to join the celebration. And what can those in attendance expect this year from the fair? They can

Gators Baseball Grows on Fauquier Community and Players Help One Another by Kara Beebe The sport of baseball is a significant part of our culture; it is as American as hot dogs and apple pie. Its mass appeal made Cal Ripken, Babe Ruth, and Sammy Sosa household names, drawing in fans of all ages and backgrounds throughout the 20th century and beyond. Baseball is a way of life, and this passion drives its success and enjoyment. It is a sport that means so many things to so many people, and for these baseball lovers, nothing beats the excitement of experiencing the game up close and personal. Thanks to the efforts of Cecil Campbell and Steve Athey, residents and baseball fans in Fauquier County have been given this great opportunity. Campbell and Athey wanted to give Fauquier County a chance to experience a high level of competitive baseball. They were able to accomplish this goal when they founded the Fauquier Gators. The team became

a product of Warrenton Fauquier Community Baseball, Inc. (WFCB), a foundation formed by Campbell and Athey in 2000 to improve the quality of baseball for the community and college athletes in the area. As members of the Clark Griffith Collegiate Baseball League (CGBL), the Fauquier Gators have allowed the community to observe some of the most skilled college players from across the nation in highly competitive play. Founded in 1945, The Clark Griffith League serves as one of the top college-level, wooden-bat summer leagues in the nation. The League consists of five teams who play a 40 game schedule in the months of June and July in the Washington D.C. and Northern Virginia area. Recruiting and planning for each Fauquier Gators summer season begins in early fall, all in preparation for the arrival of the players in late May. This

We’ve got it all covered at:

Matt Steele planning ensures an ideal mix of talent in order for each player to have the most rewarding learning experience possible. The Gator’s coaching staff consists of Head Coach Paul Koch, who is also the head coach at Fauquier High School, and assistant coaches Mike Ranson, a pitching coach at Wingate University, Duncan Cockerille, pitching coach at Fauquier High School, and Ted Currle, Liberty High School’s head coach. Their mix of knowledge and experience allows each player to have a great deal of individualized and specialized instruction. The result is a successful season for the team and fans to enjoy equally. The Gators and the CGBL provide a unique opportunity for both the athletes and the communities in which they play. Players in the league are given the chance to live in a new place for the summer and experience new teammates, coaches, and competition. These talented young men are recruited from all over the country and placed with host families for the duration of the summer. These host family situations allow for a great amount of interaction between the baseball players and Fauquier County. The use of wooden bats is one of the greatest advantages of playing in the league. In their regular season play in college, players use only metal bats. Adapting to wooden bats in the summer season allows batters to get the feel of wooden bats, also giving See Gators on Page 16

This joint project between the Fauquier High School boosters and WFCB has enabled the Fauquier Gators, as well as the Fauquier High School Falcons, to play on one of the best maintained fields in the area. Three Fauquier residents play for the Gators this year. Josh Campbell, who attends Shenandoah University, plays outfield. Matt Steele, a graduate of the 2004 Fauquier High School class and currently enrolled at Bridgewater College, plays second base. John Sinclair, a sophomore at Bridgewater College next year, pitches. In an effort to continuously improve baseball in the area, WFCB started the Fauquier Gators Baseball Summer Camp in 2004. This week long daycamp, offered for three weeks every summer, allows boys and girls in the area to come together and learn the skills of baseball from the Fauquier Gators coaches and players. In February of 2005, WFCB and Fauquier Gators cofounder Steve Athey died suddenly. His death was a great loss to the community, WFCB, and the Fauquier Gators. Athey had a very 16

Reader Photo http://www.townofwarrenton.com Once in awhile while we are driving along our regular Town of Warrenton roads, we pass a police car with the red and blue lights flashing and the horn blaring. Aren’t you sometimes curious to know where they are heading off too? Well, now you can know. The Town of Warrenton’s website has a Police Department Crime Report

that is updated frequently. The page logs the number of incidents and gives brief descriptions of what took place and where. It also gives brief descriptions of accidents that occurred, where they took place and the estimated damage in the accident. There is plenty of other information on the website also that is viewable as well.

Another Great Reason to Shop Warrenton First: Reason #10.

Peace of Mind: Shopping locally reduces stress and aggravation. You don’t have to “schedule” a trip to go shopping in Warrenton like you would if you were heading towards D.C. You have the option of being spontaneous. You also get the added piece of mind in knowing that you’ve contributed to your community by helping our local, tax-paying businesses, kept the environment cleaner, added more time to your life for your family and friends, and probably saved some money in the process. 18
