Rep. Wittman to speak
at the 114th Holly Ball
R
ep. Robert Wittman will
serve as the orator for the
Holly Ball December 28 at Indian
Creek Yacht and Country Club.
Queen Abigail Robbins will reign
over the Holly Realm.
A black tie, invitational charity event to benefit the Tidewater
Foundation, ball proceeds reach
the Northern Neck and Middle
Peninsula communities through
grants from the foundation.
Each year the queen selects a
member of the community to provide an oration on a topic relating to the spirit and origin of the
ball.
Wittman was first elected to
serve the First Congressional
District of Virginia in December
2007. He was re-elected to a full
term in November 2008.
For more than 20 years, he has
served in multiple levels of government, from Montross Town
Council to U.S. Congress. He won
his first campaign for public office
in 1986 when he was elected to
town council, where he served for
10 years, four as mayor.
In 1995, he was elected to the
Rep. Robert Wittman
Westmoreland board of supervisors,
and chairman in 2003.
In 2005, he was elected to the Virginia House of Delegates in District
99.
In Congress, Wittman serves on
the House Armed Services Committee and the Committee on Natu-

ral Resources. He has earned a
reputation for being an advocate
for men and women in uniform
and for being a champion of the
Chesapeake Bay, said Holly Ball
publicity chair Patricia Gallagher.
He serves on the subcommittees on Seapower and Expeditionary Forces, Readiness, and
Military Personnel. In addition,
as co-chair of the Congressional
Shipbuilding Caucus, he is an
advocate for a robust Naval fleet
and a healthy domestic shipbuilding industry, said Gallagher.
Wittman also is a champion
of the Chesapeake Bay—for its
environmental and economic
attributes—and has introduced
legislation that will increase the
effectiveness of cleaning up the
bay, she said.
Prior to his election to Congress,
Wittman spent 26 years working
in state government, most recently
as field director for the Virginia
Health Department’s Division of
Shellfish Sanitation. Earlier, he
was an environmental health specialist for health departments in
the Northern Neck and Middle
Peninsula regions.
He has a doctorate in public
policy and administration from
Virginia Commonwealth University, a master’s of public health
in health policy and administration from the University of North
Carolina, and a bachelor’s of science
in biology from Virginia Tech.
Wittman and his wife, Kathryn, live
in Montross. They have two children:
a daughter, Devon, 26, son-in-law
Daniel Gooch, and a son, Josh, 21,
and a grandchild, Morgan Elizabeth
Gooch.
The Committee of the Holly Ball
and the Tidewater Foundation board
are delighted and honored by Wittman’s willingness to deliver remarks
at the 114th Holly Ball, said Gallagher. His continued interests in
areas of civic concern parallel the
mission of the foundation, she said.

Four couples share library lottery ticket
The Lancaster Community
Library Lottery will continue
through January 9. A drawing will be held at 10:30 a.m.
January 10 at the library in
Kilmarnock.
“We do this every year, four
couples, we’re all friends,
spend $25 each and buy a
ticket,” said Julia PutneyBrandt. “We hope we’re the
grand prize winners and
can split the grand prize of
$10,000 four ways. Wouldn’t
that be a hoot.”
Putney-Brandt and her husband, Bill Brandt, share the
ticket with Margaret Anne
Fohl and Bill Arnold, Lucy
and Warren Hottle and Jane
and Roger Fortin.
“A total of eleven cash
prizes will be awarded again

The Richard Henry Lee Chapter of the Sons of the American
Revolution will meet at 1:30 p.m.
December 21 at Rappahannock
Westminster-Canterbury Retirement Village
The featured speaker, Robert
Teagle, will present a slide show
entitled “Slavery and Servitude
in Christ Church Parish.” Using
the local perspective of Christ
Church, Lancaster County, the
talk will explore the many ways
slaves and servants shaped life
in colonial Virginia, said Norm
Farley.
In particular, Teagle will
address the impact slaves and
servants had on the colony’s
economy, political culture, religious life, legal system and social
relations, said Farley. He also will
examine labor practices, family
life, resistance to bondage, and
changes in slavery and servitude
over the period. Teagle is education director and curator at Historic Christ Church.
The chapter also will elect officers for the 2010 year.

George Washington
Birthplace to celebrate
Christmas December 26
Join the staff and volunteers of George Washington
Birthplace National Monument from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
December 26 to celebrate the
Washington Family Christmas.
Colonial Virginians—black
and white, rich and poor—
vigorously celebrated Christmas for 12 days–the period
stretching from Christmas Day
to the feast of the Epiphany
in January, according to park
manager Dick Lahey. Advent,
the period before Christmas
Day, was considered a period
of spiritual preparation without decorations or feasting.
Costumed volunteers and
staff members will host a
Christmas party much like
the Washington family might
have done in the 1730s, said
Lahey. Cooks will prepare
a lavish feast while visitors
enjoy the mouth-watering
smells from their creations.
Children will play with
their Christmas toys and enjoy
the decorations in the house,
he said. A fiddler and harpsichordist will teach young
people the latest steps as the
colonial dancers display their
beautiful new clothes.
Visitors to the birthplace
will enjoy all of this as well as
some of the plantation work—
like blacksmithing and spinning—that took place holiday
or not, said Lahey. Ginger
snaps and hot cider will be
served in the Visitor Center,
and those staying until dusk
will be treated to the once-ayear lighting of candle lamps
from the Visitor Center to the
Memorial House. The Bookstore will be open until 7 p.m.
as well.
Admission is free on
December 26.
George Washington Birthplace National Monument is
on Route 204, some 2 miles
off of Route 3 and 11 miles
west of Montross. Additional
information about George
Washington
Birthplace
National Monument is available at 224-1732, or nps.gov/

Art league announces
January special events
The Rappahannock Art League recently announced two special events for January 2010. Both events will take place at the
Studio Gallery at 19 North Main Street in Kilmarnock.
A new exhibit of original art work by members, “New YearNew Work,” will be featured in the Jane Stouffer Williams main
exhibit room, said communications committee chairman Barbara
Kershner.
This show will open January 5 and continue through January
30, Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
An opening reception will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. January 8,
said Kershner. Visitors will be able to meet some of the exhibiting artists and enjoy light refreshments.
The 2010 monthly Art Forums series will open January 25 and
continue at 1 p.m. the fourth Monday each month. The January
edition will feature a brilliant slide presentation of the winners
of the prestigious Virginia Watercolor Society 2009 Show. The
forums are free to the public.
Garden Club to discuss native plants
The Chesapeake Bay Garden
Club’s January 26 program
topic will be “Native plants are
the principle in the earth’s bank
account.”
The guest speaker will be
Rappahannock River Valley
National Wildlife Refuge wildlife biologist Sandy C. Spencer.
The club meets at noon at
Festival Halle in Reedville.
Establishment of native plant
gardens have become increas-
ingly popular in school yards,
parks, community gardens,
office fronts, but mostly as
a curio or educational focal
point, said Spencer.
Her presentation will explain
the critical role native plants
play in the healthy functioning of ecosystems, such as
pollination services and foodweb supply, and how private
landowners hold the key in
the reversal of the widespread
extinction trend, she said.

The first “C” is for color. The whitest stones are
the most expensive. Another “C” is for clarity, freedom from inclusions. A third “C” is for
the cut, which determines the sparkle. A stone
should be cut symetrically and in good proportion. The final “C” is for the carat weight.

Families and friends gathered recently for a veterans service at Holy Tabernacle of God in Lancaster.
Honorary veterans service held
The Derrick B. Spencer Memorial Foundation recently sponsored
an honorary service for veterans
at the Holy Tabernacle of God in
Lancaster.
Guests were members of the
Lancaster High School JROTC
who presented the colors at the
opening of the service. They
included cadet Staff Sgt. Holly
Booth, cadet Lt. Chelsea Montgomery, cadet Lt. Carter Aines,
cadet Staff Sgt. Ashleigh Saunders and cadet Lt. Craig Hayden
who read the History of the Flag
“Old Glory” as the flag was
passed down.
Cadet Maj. Clay Hinson passed
the flag to Wonderful Parker, cadet
Lt. Chelsea Montgomery, cadet
Lt. Carter Aines, cadet Staff Sgt.
Holly Booth, and cadet Staff Sgt.
Ashleigh Saunders
The ceremony was an extension
of Parker’s retirement ceremony
which had previously taken place
in Sigonelli, Italy, after 20 years
service in the Navy. The team was
instructed by Chief Mann. Members were congratulated for a job
well done and were awarded a
plaque in appreciation of their participation. Each JROTC member
also received a letter of appreciation.
A guest, head registrar Willena
Hopson of the Portsmouth Naval
Hospital, spoke on the importance
of understanding the meaning of
“sacrificing for your country.” She
spoke on appreciating not only
veterans but their families and
friends. She said that many people
are unaware of the many imminent dangers faced by our troops.
Hopson also described the purpose of the memorial fund and the
many people it has helped.
Other participants were Louise
Kelly who offered a prayer. Soloists were Vickie Henderson Smith
and Crystal Y. Spencer Parker.
They sang “Ride Out The Storm”
and “You Are My Hero,” respectively.
There was special recognition
of the 20 members of the military
veterans present and many names
were phoned in to be remembered and recognized. Attending
were William “Pet” Henderson,
Joseph Henderson representing his late brother Gilbert killed
at Pearl Harbor, Glendon Pinn,
Tyler Kelly, Ed Carter, Richard
Kelly represented by wife Louise
Kelly and 2009 retiree Wonderful
Parker. They received special recognition plaques.
Those receiving special certificates with all branches of the
military displayed were Diana
Montgomery Harcum and Eric
Harcum, Ambrose and Yvonne
Smith, Anthony Smith, Reginald
Gibson, Jessie Davenport, Wardell
Henderson, Gilbert Owens, Bruce
Carter, Kia Gaines, Charles Diggs
represented by daughter Carolyn
Diggs, Jessie Davenport, Jamie
Smith, Joseph Kelly, and the late
Herman Kelly represented by his
mother, Louise Kelly. Kia Gaines
was the last and youngest person
who most recently enlisted.
Wonderful Parker was the most
recent to retire with 20 years of
service. Special awards went to
Kia Gaines, Wonderful Parker,
Crystal Parker, Vickie Smith, Willena Hopson and pastor Nancy
Pinn.

Heathsville United Methodist Church recently donated
$1,000 to The Lancaster-Northumberland Interfaith Service
Council and challenged other
churches to match it as Interfaith’s income has fallen short
of what it needs to help disadvantaged families.
The church also presented its
regular $200 annual contribution to Interfaith.
President Jeannie Kling
accepted the two checks at
Interfaiths’s Kilmarnock warehouse from the Rev. James B.
Godwin. Council member Lee
Allain, who had the idea for the
challenge, also was present.
“We’re a small church, but
our folks have big hearts,”
Rev. Godwin said. “We usually budget a $200 contribution
to Interfaith, but because so
many families are in such great
need for help with rent and
utility bills, we felt we had to
do more. This large contribution isn’t easy for us, but we’re
happy to help.

Kling said cutbacks caused
by the economic downturn
and poor weather, mean many
county residents who usually
work to support themselves and
their families are now without
jobs to pay rent and utility bills,
and are struggling to put food
on the table.
“Interfaith is very grateful
for this extra help from Heathsville United Methodist Church.
Times are tough and getting
tougher for Interfaith and many
of our neighbors. We hope this
challenge will provide funds to

Dominion
Foundation
recently awarded a grant for
$2,500 to Partners for Lancaster County Schools Foundation. The grant will support
the engineering and design of
an affordable rental housing
project for local members of
the workforce.
The grant will be used with
donations from other foundations, businesses, religious
and civic organizations, and
private donors to fund the project’s $164,000 engineering and
design phase, said foundation
president Bill Warren. As part
of this phase, the foundation
will acquire architect Wayne
Jones of Raleigh, N.C., who
designed similar projects in
North Carolina.
“Dominion is pleased to
help Partners Foundation
develop affordable rental housing for teachers, nurses and
healthcare, law enforcement,
and municipal/county employees,” said external affairs manager Al Smith Jr. “We are well
aware of the need to improve
affordable housing opportunities in Northern Neck counties
and view Partners’ initiative
as a significant positive step
towards alleviating this need.
The initiative will make it possible for workforce persons to
live in modern, attractive rental
housing and to establish themselves within the community.”
“In this season of giving,
we are blessed to have a partner like the Dominion Foundation,” said Lancaster board
of supervisors chairman Dr.
Jack Russell. “The grant from
Dominion will go a long way
toward providing attractive,
affordable housing for our
workforce.”
Dr. Russell explained the
project evolved from the
“Vision” group’s workforce
housing research sponsored by
the Jessie Ball duPont Fund.
The study identified affordable
housing as a prerequisite to
economic vitality and worker
retention.
“Local leadership provided
by Mr. Warren and Partners,
and collaborating with foundations like Dominion and duPont
is critical to community development and problem-solving
in these tight economic times,”
he said. “Partners Foundation’s
initiative represents a major
step towards implementing
the recommendations of the
duPont study.”
“I would like to express
Partners’ sincere appreciation for the Dominion grant,”
said Warren. “I speak for our
entire board of directors when
I say we applaud the key role
that Dominion Foundation has

played in helping us achieve
our goal to provide affordable rental housing for teachers, nurses and healthcare,
law enforcement, and county/
municipal employees.”
To date, the foundation has
raised some $534,000, or 76
percent of its goal to raise
$690,000 through grants and
donations, while limiting
financing with Virginia Housing and Development Authority (VHDA) to $1.2 million.
This approach is being used to
ensure the project is 100 percent “self-sustaining,” based
only on the monthly rental
amounts paid by residents,
said Warren.
Partners will reach its
$690,000 goal by May 2010,
which will enable the construction phase to begin in

the project is “on-track” to be
completed and ready for occupancy in June 2011, he said.
“To date, we have been able
to make remarkable progress
in securing most of the funding needed for the project
despite the challenging economic times,” said Warren.
