Story and photo by Linda CicoiraAccused arsonist Tonya Susan Bundick turned

herself in to authorities Monday about an hour af-ter an Accomack Circuit Court Grand Jury indict-ed her on 62 counts of deliberately setting fires.

The 40-year-old Hopeton resident was whisked away from the Clerk of Court’s office in handcuffs. To her right was a deputy. To her left was the bail bondsman who put up about $30,000 for her freedom a couple of months ago when she was held on two charges — arson and conspiracy to deliberately set a fire.

According to Accomack Sheriff Todd Godwin, Bundick was taken from his office to Eastern Shore Regional Jail in Eastville, where she is being held without bond.

Judge W. Revell Lewis had sealed the new indictments until her arrest. After being es-

corted away by authorities, Clerk Samuel Coo-per made the document public.

It was the first time the Grand Jury had met since a video confession of Bundick’s alleged conspirator, fiancé Charles Robert Smith III, was entered into evidence at his trial on Oct. 31. Smith, 38, also known as Charlie Apple-gate, pleaded guilty to 67 counts of arson. Dur-ing the interrogation, he said Bundick set the initial fires and that he continued the spree to appease and protect her. Smith is in Accomack Jail awaiting sentencing. Authorities have not said if he will testify against her.

The new indictments against Bundick in-clude 53 felony and nine misdemeanor counts al-leging crimes between Nov. 12, 2012, and March 26, 2013. The two original charges were from an

was indicted by an Accomack Grand Jury Monday on counts of second-degree murder and felony abuse and endangerment by a parent or guardian. The incidents allegedly occurred be-tween April 17 and April 30.

The girl’s mother, Victoria Mae Joynes, 37, was also in-dicted on the abuse and en-dangerment charge during the nearly two-week period. That count involves “cause or per-mit serious injury to the life or health of such child by a will-ful act, omission or refusal to provide necessary care.”

Authorities have closely guarded details of the case.

There was a report filed at around 11 a.m. April 30 of the

Story & photo by Angie H. CrutchleyWhen the Canadian-born comic, Ian

Bagg, took the stage at The Funny Bone in Virginia Beach this weekend, there was already a large Eastern Shore crowd pre-pared to laugh.

The sarcastic, witty comic came in fast and hard with jokes about everything from cruise-ship disasters to our very own salt water taffy. Gasps were heard, not from shock, but from the audience trying to catch their collective breath amid the fast-paced, laughter.

Melissa Elliott of Craddockville attend-ed Bagg’s sold-out comedy show Saturday night. “My cheeks hurt from laughing so hard. I had to take sips of my drink in be-tween laughs for fear of spitting on people in front of me,” said Elliott. “Ian did such a great job; much of his material comes from his interaction with the audience, so he had to be quick on his feet. That’s a tal-ent that’s matched by few. I got to meet him after the show and he was so down-to-earth and personable.”

Bagg’s connection to the Shore pulls from more than just his knowledge of taffy. In October 2011, Bagg, whose Show-time special brought the comic/actor/future reality star into the homes of mil-lions, married 1997 Northampton High School graduate Kerrie Ann Caison. That same special made their Shore-born dog, Roxie, a star as well.

This summer, Bagg began filming an “undisclosed” reality show on the Shore, including shots in Cape Charles and Smith Beach, for a potential pilot on an “undisclosed” network. Although the proj-ect is hush-hush, there is confirmation that the reality show will star some of Caison’s family.

Director Michael Addis in his praise of Bagg: “Ian is hilarious.”

The 6’4” man of laughs grew up in a small town, Terrace, British Columbia. He planned to go to school to be an explosives engineer. One day the Vancouver Canucks hockey fan decided to try his hand at stand-up comedy. Bagg did his first set at The Punch Line in Vancouver. Two years later, he played the “Just For Laughs Festival.” A New York club owner saw that performance and asked Bagg to play his club.

In 1996, he said goodbye to his parents, Gary and Robyn, and boarded a train for New York City with $1,000 in one pocket and a handful of jokes in the other.

The ambitious funnyman has done the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late, Late Show with Craig

Kilbourn, Comedy Central Presents: Ian Bagg and Late Night with Conan O’Brien. Conan’s show proved to be his stepping stone to getting his work visa.

“They really helped me out,” recalls the comedian. “They helped me get my work visa.”

He got into acting. His first film was Tim Robbins’ “The Cradle Will Rock”. He’s played alongside Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen in “Double, Double Toil and Trouble.”

The self-deprecating star joked, “It was just a small part. They actually had to dub my voice I screwed up my lines so bad.” What ever the case, Bagg has ap-peared in 10 films, including Most Vertical Primate and MVP 2, which, according to Bagg, was his largest part to date.

Although he’s not played the romantic counterpart on film, Bagg starred in a real-life love story with

Caison. While he was making a name for himself, Caison was making her way out to California via roadtrip in 2002.

“It was love at first sight for me …but it took her a little longer — like 11 months!” Bagg recalled.

“It was more like two months,” the beach-loving Caison laughed. “He got tickets to a show for my sister. When she picked them up, they were under the name ‘Kerrie Ann Bagg.” I thought that was really sweet.”

She texted him a simple “thank you,” to which the constant joker return-text-ed, “Who’s this???”

Their first date was in Chinatown in San Fransisco. She brought him home to meet the family for Thanksgiving. That first meeting with her Eastern Shore family is when he asked permis-sion from her parents to get married. But her brothers made sure to give him the “Eastern Shore Treatment.”

“They took me clamming,” he said stone-faced.

But there were still a few obstacles to overcome. The day after Kerrie moved in, Ian was deported back to Canada.

“They spelled my name wrong on the the visa and said I was a scientist. You couldn’t even get away with that before 9/11,” said Bagg.

Everything was righted and soon the happy couple were reunited. After getting married, they settled in Los Angeles, Cal. Although Caison, a certi-fied occupational therapy assistant who works with kids in Huntington Beach, Cal., prefers to stay out of the limelight, she does express happiness for her hus-band.

Asked if she would ever want her husband to go into another line of work, Kerrie said, “He loves what he does and I want him to be whatever he wants to be. If he’s happy, I’m happy.”

After filming on the Shore Sunday through Mon-day, they are heading back to L.A. to prepare for their annual Christmas party. Then it’s off to Hartford, Conn., and Calgary, Alberta, for more tour dates. “The Ian Bagg Show,” a weekly podcast he hosts with some friends, can be downloaded every Tuesday from iTunes, along with his cd “It Takes a Village.” In March, he’ll be featured along with comic Gabriel Iglesias in “Stand-up Revolution 3” on Comedy Cen-tral. For those who missed his five-night run at The Funny Bone, Bagg will be back next Thanksgiving for what will surely be another sold-out crowd.

By Linda CicoiraAbout 40 volunteer firefighters bat-

tled a fire in an air-handler at Tyson Foods, Inc. on Lankford Highway in Temperanceville late Sunday night.

Chief David Grant of Atlantic Volun-teer Fire Company said the fire was re-ported at about 11:30 p.m. with flames visible from the roof of the chicken plant. It took about 45 minutes to con-tain the blaze, Grant said.

Firefighters from Atlantic, New Church, Chincoteague, Saxis, Bloxom, Parksley and Pocomoke, Md., respond-ed. Volunteers stayed on the scene un-til about 1 a.m.

Just 10 minutes before the fire broke out, at the nearby intersection of Lank-ford Highway and Saxis Road, a single-vehicle accident knocked out power in the area.

State Police Sgt. Michelle Anaya said a Toyota Prius was traveling south when it “had a tire blow out, ran off the road struck a ditch, overturned

and struck a pole.”The officer said the driver had mi-

nor injuries and three passengers, all younger than 16 years old, were taken to a local hospital with non-life threat-ening injuries.

By Catherine Campbellof Onancock

As a mother of a child with con-genital heart defects, I want to help spread awareness to my

community. Any congenital heart defect (CHD)

is serious, some more than others. Some require a lifetime of medica-

tions; others require many open-heart surgeries. Surgeries and medications may help our kids’ heart work better, but it will never be normal. CHD kids are very fragile and unpredictable; one minute they can be running around the house like normal and the next minute they could be fighting for their life. You learn to never take any mo-ment for granted with a chd child.

We heart moms may seem overpro-tective of our kids when it comes to ill-ness, but what is a simple cold to your child can be disastrous to ours.

We have watched our child on the brink of death, been told to say our goodbyes, and have sat for hours and just watched the monitor, counting each heartbeat, hoping it wouldn’t be their last.

My daughter has had two open-heart surgeries with more to come, numerous cardiac catheterization, and nissen and G-tube surgery. She

has coded once and it took the amaz-ing staff at Children’s Hospital of the King’s Daughters 25 minutes to bring her back. She eats primarily through her G-tube and is still recuperating from strokes and seizures she had over a year ago. She is taking 10 medica-tions four times a day.

I am blessed that she is here with us today and every time I look at her I can’t help but think what a miracle she is.

Every CHD child has a different story, no matter how similar the heart defect. Unfortunately, scientists do not know all of the causes for CHD. A lot of people think that mothers or fathers must have done something wrong to cause their children’s hearts to be mal-formed. That is seldom the case. There are some known illnesses, medical con-ditions and drugs which can increase the risk of having a child with a heart defect, but most of the time, the doctors don’t know why our children are born with heart defects.

CHD is the number one birth defect; nearly one out of every 100 babies is born with a CHD, the leading cause

of infant death in the United States. Thousands of them will not reach their first birthday and thousands more die before they reach adulthood. Almost half of those with complex congenital heart disease have neurological and developmental disabilities.

In the United States, twice as many children die from CHDs each year than from all forms of childhood cancer com-bined, yet funding for pediatric can-cer research is five times higher than funding for CHD. Only one penny of every dollar donated to the American Heart Association goes toward CHD research. Of every dollar the govern-ment spends on medical funding, only a fraction of a penny is directed toward CHD research.

In the last decade, death rates for CHDs have declined by almost 30 per-cent due to advances made through re-search. Just imagine how many lives we can save if we all work together to help spread the word!

Make sure your newborn gets a pulse ox test when born, it can detect a CHD. So please, spread the word and save lives!

By Ron WestSixth graders from Occohannock

and Kiptopeke elementary schools re-cently visited the Courthouse Green in Eastville to learn about the history of Northampton County.

Occohannock social-studies teacher Diane Powers explained that the pur-pose of the trips was to help expand the students’ views of local colonial times. “We wanted them to interact with their own histories,” she said, “to understand that the citizens of the Eastern Shore played a vital role in the economy of the colony.”

Powers said she wants students to understand that our local history has been preserved and that by reading old court records and touring historic sites they would better understand not only national and state history, but also the value of their community.

Kiptopeke social studies teacher Jennifer Rippon noted that the stu-dents have been learning about daily life in the colonial period. She thought

that this would be an excellent way to connect what they had read with what really occurred in right in Northamp-ton County. “The Eastern Shore is rich with history and our children need to know how it has helped to shape their ancestors and themselves,” Rippon said. “The visit gave them a hands-on experience that brought what they read in textbooks and what they hear from lectures to life.”

Local historian and published au-thor Ginger Johnson, herself a former history teacher, conducted one of the tour groups through the buildings. Johnson explained the importance of preserving the buildings as well as the records, which provide a continuum of documentation since the early 1600s. Northampton County is home to the oldest continuous records in America.

Circuit Court Clerk Traci Johnson and her staff offered the students a view of those court records, which have been preserved and can be used for research by anyone wishing to dig

into the background of our ancestors who lived and worked in the fields of the county, on the waters of the Chesa-peake Bay and along the marshes bor-dering the barrier islands.

The buildings of the Courthouse Green may be viewed by the public Monday through Friday. While gener-ally open during the summer months,

they are available in the off-season by contacting the County Administrator’s Office in Eastville.

Anyone wishing to visit the Clerk’s office to view the records is reminded that they may not carry in weapons, cameras, cell phones, or other electron-ic recording equipment due to security regulations in the courthouse.

Northampton District CourtA county man was charged Tuesday

with unauthorized use of a vehicle, ac-cording to papers filed in Northampton General District Court.

Theutis Octavius Wharton, 41, of Nassawadox allegedly took the vehicle

on Oct. 20. He was arrested Nov. 20 for the felony offense but the records

were not filed and he was not ar-

raigned until this week. Deputy Tara Leckel of Northampton County Sher-

iff ’s Office investigated the case. Accomack District Court

Documents filed this week in Ac-comack General District Court allege that Maurice Antonio Smith, 31, pos-sessed ammunition in 2012 after being convicted of a felony.

Smith, whose last address was Parks Street in Parksley but is in jail awaiting sentencing for receiving stolen proper-ty, is being held without bail. Investiga-tor Pat Coulter of the Accomack County Sheriff ’s Office investigated.

Accomack Circuit CourtAt press time Thursday, a Hacks-

neck man was set to ask an Accomack Circuit Court judge to consider setting bond for him.

Christopher T. Bonniwell, 43, is be-

ing held in Accomack Jail without bond on charges of rape and violating a protective order in November. The charges are still in Accomack Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court where bond was denied.

child being injured in a fall at Mill Run Apartments. Rescuers from Commu-nity Fire Company in Exmore took the toddler to Riverside Shore Memorial Hospital where she was pronounced dead. An obituary gave no names for the child’s parents or guardians and the funeral home and police refused to disclose that information.

Court records show Joynes lived on Mill Run Lane in Belle Haven when the child died. An officer said Joynes now resides in Salisbury, Md., and is free on $5,000 secured bond, which will continue. Files also show her living on Lynnhaven Circle near Painter with two other children, ages 7 and 17.

Accomack Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court Judge Croxton Gordon found probable cause in November to certify the endangerment count against Joynes to the Grand Jury. Probable cause also was found to certify that charge against Snead, who lived at Oak Ridge Drive in Melfa. He is being held without bond in Accomack Jail after being arrest-ed Tuesday. Before that, he was free on $6,500 secured bond. The indictment for murder was made directly to the Grand Jury. Evidence was listed as “unknown.”

The Medical Examiner’s Office would not disclose the cause of the toddler’s death and referred inquiries to Inves-tigator Pat Coulter and Sgt. Anthony Bright of the Accomack County Sher-iff ’s Office. The autopsy was performed on May 1. Investigators referred ques-tions to Assistant Commonwealth’s At-torney Matthew Brenner.

“I can’t comment on the evidence at this point,” Brenner said Wednesday.

Coulter requested information from Monumental Life Insurance Company to determine if there was a plot to col-lect from the girl’s death, according to papers filed in Accomack Circuit Court. Results of the inquiry were not included in the file.

Other IndictmentsIn another case, two people accused

of charges in a fatal Aug. 28 home inva-sion in Sanford were indicted.

Leon O’Bryan Crippen, 22, of Chesser Road in Temperanceville, and Lamesha Cropper, 26, of Beaglin Park Drive in Salisbury, Md., were indicted on counts of armed burglary, armed robbery and use of a firearm in a felony. Police say they forced their way into Tyler Wil-liams’ home on Marsh Market Road.

Cropper was shot during the inci-dent and was found in a vehicle at a convenience store on Lankford High-way in Temperanceville. With her was Master Caine Wesley Jr., 23, of Nelso-nia who died from gunshots wounds.

Also indicted were: •Iyeasha Marshall, 24, of Bloxom

Circle in Mappsville, on a count of ma-liciously wounding Jean Patrick Jo-seph of Mappsville on Aug. 26;

•Lorena Rodriguez Villareal, 33, of West Point, Va., on a fourth offense in 10 years of driving while intoxicated (DWI), occurring Oct. 20;

•Nakia Keetwon Reid, 21, of Lynnhav-en Circle in Painter, on a count of posses-sion of a firearm by a felon on Sept. 25;

•Amie Pearson Pryor, 25, of Walker Lane in Harborton, on a count of re-ceiving a stolen wooden chest contain-ing duck decoys belonging to Mark Bundy on Jan. 3;

•Keith Thomas Lilliston Jr., 23, of Nelsonia Road in Nelsonia, on a count of breaking into the home of Kristin Howard of Mill Run Lane in Belle Ha-ven Aug. 24;

•Clifton Gene Isdell, 30, of Bethel Church Road in Bloxom, on counts of burglary, grand larceny of a firearm and possession of a firearm by a felon, occurring at the home of John Maddox between Aug. 20 and Aug. 22;

•James Joseph Brown, 21, of Myrtle Street in Exmore, on a count of grand larceny of property belonging to Mar-shall and Brenda Carter between Sept. 2 and Sept. 13;

•Valice Ray Harmon, 30 of Ray-mond Townsend Lane in Horntown, on a count of felony property destruction to a 2001 Toyota Camry belonging to Ryan C. Hall on Sept. 29.

April 1, 2013, incident in which police followed the couple as they fled from a fire on Airport Drive in Melfa.

State Police Special Agent Robert Barnes testified to the Grand Jury about the cases. He was one of the of-ficers who interrogated Smith in April.

Smith told Barnes and Sheriff God-win he set dozens of fires in Accomack County because he has problems with impotency and feared his fiancée would break off their relationship if he didn’t do as she directed.

The two lived together on Matthews Road in Hopeton when they were ar-rested on April 1.

The 23rd Annual Onancock Christ-mas Parade will be held Sunday, Dec. 15, beginning at 5

p.m. The theme is “A Market Street Wonderland.”Participants will include

marching bands, Chincoteague ponies, and fire companies, includ-

ing Onancock’s own volunteers, who will escort Santa.

Following the parade, Santa will be at the town gazebo, where awards for the best parade participants will be presented.

For 15 years, food baskets have been distributed in the Bayview com-munity for Thanks-giving. This year, under the leadership of long-time Bayview resident Alice Coles, approxi-mately 45 families received the bounty

of the labors of more than a dozen lo-cal volunteers. On Nov. 20, they gath-ered in the Bayview Community Cen-ter, amid boxes and bags of can goods, staples, and most importantly, turkeys and chicken, to begin the distribution process.

According to Coles, “The biggest thing that we need in this part of the county is training that will provide the people with an opportunity to find better jobs.” She stressed the need for collaboration among various groups to provide such training.

One suggestion was to open the vo-cational center at the high school or the former middle school, where local pro-fessionals could offer their expertise.

Duer concurred, “They are very en-gaged in working to support the town.”

Ken Dufty, representing the Greater Exmore Business and Community As-sociation, announced upcoming events.

Dufty noted that area businesses have been asked to decorate their store-fronts for the holidays. Once, routine for local businesses, Dufty noted that fewer storefronts have been decorated in re-cent years. A planned storefront art show, previously planned for the winter, has been postponed until spring.

Dufty explained that local business-es will display artisans’ work and then direct those interested in the items to visit the artist’s businesses. Dufty told council that Black Friday shopping had been very successful and pointed to renewed interest in buying locally.

“Exmore is a very good place to open a business,” Dufty said. “We have a very diverse community and have seen three new businesses open in the last few months.”

He stressed the need for area resi-dents to buy locally.

Dufty announced that the Business and Community Association is seeking an artist to paint a mural on the quon-set hut on the east side of town. Council previously agreed to allow the painting, to be done at no cost to the town.

Council voted 5-0 (Councilman Charles Massey absent) to appoint Carla Clark to the Planning Commis-sion. Sandy Savage was appointed at council’s November session.

Public Works Director Taylor Dukes reported that the town’s application for an increase in water withdrawal has been submitted to the state. Currently, Dukes noted, the town is using more water than its permit allows. The new application asks for an additional 10 million gallons per year, an increase of 40 million gallons.

Dukes said the permit application for the well project is being submitted.

The engineering firm Draper Aden As-sociates has been working on plans.

According to Dukes, the town’s broadband project is moving forward. The town’s attorney is reviewing the agreement and if it is approved, an antenna will be installed on the roof of the municipal building to facili-tate high-speed Internet access in the downtown area.

Regarding the disposition of the for-mer Center Chevrolet building adjacent to Community Fire and Rescue’s build-ing, Dukes said removal of asbestos from the structure is nearing completion. Once the building is cleared for demolition, the fire department will be allowed to do so. A farmers’ museum had been planned for the structure, but due to its disrepair and a lack of funding to renovate it, the project fell through and the building was declared surplus by council.

Dukes told council that the owner of the former bank building adjacent to the municipal building has submit-ted a request to repurpose the second floor as an apartment. The remainder of the first floor would be reserved for commercial use. Council scheduled a public hearing for the building modifi-cation for Dec. 12 at 7 p.m.

Police Chief Angelo DiMartino re-ported that criminal activity in the area is increasing as the holiday sea-son approaches. He advised council of a recent shooting at the Sage Resturant during which two individuals were in-jured by gunfire. DiMartino said that as customers were leaving the estab-lishment, one vehicle blocked another, resulting in one customer opening fire on those in the other vehicle.

Mike Johnson updated council on plans to handle trash removal dur-ing the holidays. Johnson said trash pickup for Christmas week would take place Tuesday, Dec. 24, rather than waiting until the end of that week.

Chancellor’s Award Recipients Announced

On Nov. 15, the Virginia Community College System (VCCS) held its annual Hampton Roads area Chancellor’s Award Luncheon to recognize excellent service in the field of Workforce Development at Paul D. Camp Community College, Thomas Nelson Community College, and Eastern Shore Community College (ESCC). ESCC’s recipients are as follows:

•Gay Baynes, Employer Ser-vices, who has a quarter century of experience working internationally as an executive coach and organizational consultant.

32-hour training course for group lead-ers at Perdue.

•Martha Costin, Career Path-ways, the staff recruiter for Perdue Farms’ Accomac Plant. She serves on the Career Pathways Educational Consortium of the Eastern Shore. For-ward thinking in her approach, she focuses on progress and how to reach goals successfully.

She also serves on the Northampton County Public Schools’ Career and Technical Education (CTE) Advisory Council.

•John Floyd, Occupation Spe-cific, an outstanding ESCC faculty member who always has supported Workforce Development Services.

His students have participated in launches at NA-SA’s Wallops Flight Facility through a partnership with the Colorado Space Grant Consortium’s RockSAT-C and ROCKON programs. Floyd facilitated ESCC’s acceptance into SpaceTech, a

prestigious Florida-based consortium of colleges. He even persuaded SpaceTech to hold their next national annual meet-ing at ESCC in February 2014.

•Curtis Smith, Community Ser-vice, director of planning for the Ac-comack-Northampton Planning Dis-trict Commission. He has partnered with ESCC’s Workforce Development Services Division to offer many public

By Linda CicoiraChincoteague Town Council voted

Monday night to spend $30,600 for a lobbyist to continue to represent the town for another six months.

Council members John Jester, Ellen Richardson, Tripp Muth, Terry How-ard and Gene Taylor voted in favor of the action. Vice Mayor Arthur Leon-ard was absent. Mayor Jack Tarr only votes to break a tie.

Rob Catron, managing partner of Al-calde & Fay Consultants, said he plans to represent the town during the 2014 session of the General Assembly and with federal officials regarding the Com-

prehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) likely to be released in January for Chin-coteague National Wildlife Refuge.

“We will review the CCP draft with Chincoteague elected officials and staff,” Catron reported. “If intervention or support is necessary by the com-monwealth or federal elected officials, we will work with staff to get these folks educated and persuade them to intervene on Chincoteague’s behalf. ”

“Flood insurance rates are increas-ing dramatically in Chincoteague and across the country,” the consultant con-tinued. “Our firm is at the forefront of working for a legislative remedy … we

will continue to keep you informed and advocate for Chincoteague residents on this critical issue.”

The lobbyist also said the firm will work to “secure funding to help” the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport grow as it “is an important source of year-round … revenue for the town … we still need to educate legislators from across Virginia about the importance and benefits of a vibrant and growing Spaceport at Wallops Island.”

Catron promised to work on keeping the refuge and Assateague National Seashore “open in the event of another federal government shutdown.” The

lobbyist also said he will seek a fix for flooding issues at Main Street and Maddox Boulevard, funding for shoul-ders on the causeway, state funds for a study to determine the most afford-able wastewater plan for Chincoteague and an increase in state funds for town police.

Council opposed new storm water management regulations proposed by the State Water Control Board, con-tending that it would have “significant impact on the local economy and qual-ity of life on Chincoteague.” Officials say rules were prepared for “areas located in the Chesapeake Bay wa-tershed to meet non-compliant water quality standards” and not for areas along the Atlantic.

Council is seeking an exemption “for coastal watersheds until such time as the regulations and technical criteria are revised accordingly.”

Northampton Seeks Comment on Proposed

Zoning ChangesBy Ron West

The first in a series of public in-formation sessions and hearings on Northampton’s proposed zoning change was held Wednesday at Occo-hannock Elementary School before an audience of fewer than 20.

Anticipating a large inquisitive crowd, nearly a dozen county staff members had set up the school audito-rium and were ready to field questions.

Documents describing the proposed changes for each of the zoning districts were available for everyone. Gone is much of the legalistic language from the previous document, replaced by simplified charts and maps. All of the documents for the proposed ordinance can be found at the county’s website at www.co.northampton.va.us (Click on the Planning and Zoning page under “Special Notes.”)

The new ordinance, if approved will go into effect only after public hearings have been held and the Comprehen-sive Plan has been approved by the su-pervisors, all of which is likely to occur in late spring.

Basketball action was underway this week, with most local teams opening their season.

Here’s a brief preview of each of the 10 teams playing hoops on the Shore this season.

In the Shore District, defending sea-son and tourney champion Nandua has a match-up advantage over rival teams with 6’, 7”, 250-pound Issac Tay-lor under the basket. Taylor has a nice shot from 15 feet and can control the boards. Nandua Coach Cedric Cooper also has key returnees Trayvon Snead and Tyreim Blake.

Snead, who scored 22 points to lead the Warriors in the season opener, and Taylor are the only returning first-team All-District players from a year ago.

“This is the most depth I’ve ever had at Nandua,” said Coach Cooper. “I can go 9 or 10 deep without much of a dropoff. This is a real team.”

Arcadia returns three starters from last year with Taylor and Tyler Major and Travon Copes. John Wright re-turns from a football injury, and Teo Giddeon gives the Firebirds two se-niors and three juniors in the top five.

“We are going to be small, so will probably run a lot if possible,” said Coach Alvin Justice.

Key players for Northampton this season will be guards Zeb Carter and Raquaun Anderson and forward Tyse-an Stratton. All three are seniors.

Northampton Coach Wayne Bell said depth could be a problem for the Jackets. “Our remaining members of the team have not played varsity bas-ketball, so we will have limited depth and experience,” Bell said. “I did gain some size this year with two players who are power forward/centers. How-ever, they have never played organized

basketball before.” “Our focus will be defensive pres-

sure,” said Coach Bell, “trying to force turnovers and making the opposing team take bad shots. On the offensive end, we want to get proper floor spac-ing, move the ball around and take good shots.”

Chincoteague is coached this season by Will Thompson.

“This is definitely going to be a re-building season,” said Thompson. “We’re young and inexperienced, so speed, strength and intelligence are going to be crucial focal points in the pursuit of a successful season. I have thrown a lot of new ways to play this game and they have been adjusting pretty well, but it’s not going to be easy.”

Key players for the Ponies are junior guards Larry Harper and Mason Mar-shall and sophomore guard Trevor Reed.

Broadwater starts five seniors with Michael Riopel, Brendon Burrows, both returning All-Metro Conference play-ers, in addition to Wesley Shrieves, Matt McCaskill and Frank Long, giving the Vikings both skill and experience.

However, Coach Eddie Spencer feels the key to the team is how the bench contributes. “We need some offense coming off the bench. Right now we are having only five players scoring, and against good teams you need contribu-tions off the bench.”

Among the girls’ teams in the East-ern Shore District, defending champi-on Northampton has to be the favorite until dethroned.

Coach Leo Owens has six return-ing seniors plus two juniors, including high-scoring Whitney Metz, a first- team All-District performer a year ago. Brianna Williams, Jateroa Harman and Daju Smith saw plenty of action last year.

“I’m not sure what our strengths are

right now, but if we play together and to our potential we will do OK,” said Coach Owens.

Nandua returns two All-District performers in Khadijah Robertson and D’errica Toppin. Patrice Glover also is a returnee who made second-team All-District last year.

“The key to the season will be for us to use our speed and athleticism and to play through our youth,” said Nandua Coach Kim Giddens Tarver.

With four returning starters and some help from the JV, Nandua will pose a formidable challenge to Northampton this season.

Arcadia has a new coach in Claudia Collins. Key players for the Lady Fire-birds include Jasmine Holden, a second-team All-District pick a year ago, Sarah Jones, Ja’Quagia Tull, Tazmonique Lankford and Latisha Fiddermon.

Coach Collins said defense, re-bounding and 3-point shooting will be the keys to the Firebird season.

“We are young, with only two se-niors, so we will be facing a challenge, but we are working hard to get better,” said Coach Collins.

Chincoteague will be led by senior Chelsea Pitts, a senior and second-team All-District performer a year ago, but the Lady Ponies are extremely young, with only one other senior and no juniors on the squad. Five sopho-mores and three freshmen will have to step up, said Coach Kelly Fox.

“There is potential in the future and we have some outstanding middle-school players on the way. We’ve been working hard conditioning and pre-paring for the upcoming games,” said Coach Fox.

The Broadwater girls, competing in the Metro Conference, will rely on se-nior guard Katie Wendell to lead the offense. Kathleen Kraft and Jenna

Hare are looked to on the boards and for inside scoring. Senior Holly Tyson can provide some outside shooting.

Coach Ralph Dodd, now in his 12th year at the helm of the Viking girls, said the key to his season is simple. “We have to play strong defense. We are working hard to have a good defensive effort ev-ery time out. We can’t get in high scor-ing games and be successful.”

Story and photo by Bill SterlingNandua whipped Windsor 69-42 in

its basketball season opener Tuesday night on its home court.

The Warriors took a 16-7 first-quarter lead behind balanced scoring from five players led by Troy Planter with 5 points.

Trayvon Snead scored 8 points in the second quarter to stake Nandua to a 30-12 halftime lead, but the Dukes cut the lead to 9 by opening the second half with 9 unanswered points.

Nandua turned to 6’, 7” Issac Taylor for 7 points in the third quarter to push the Warrior lead back to 11 at 44-33.

Taylor added 8 more in the fourth quarter to tally 19, with Snead adding 5 to give him a team-high 22 points, aided by 8-of-10 shooting from the free throw line.

Planter contributed 13 points for the Warriors. Tyreim Blake and Wil-liam Blake each had 5 points.

Snead was 7 of 9 from the floor, Taylor grabbed 11 rebounds to lead the team, and Blake had a team-high five assists.

Justice had a game-high 26 points for Windsor.

Nandua Coach Cedric Cooper was pleased with his team’s effort. “Once we got over the early game jitters, we played together really well,” he said. “Everyone got in the game the first half. I’ve never had the luxury of having a team this deep, and it helps to rotate players in and out of the game to stay fresh.”

The Nandua girls overcame an 11-point deficit at halftime to defeat the Windsor girls 50-47 on the road.

Freshman Kyteia Smaw had 19 points for the Lady Warriors. Khadijah Robinson added 15.

Coach Kim Giddens Tarver said a pressing man-to-man defense in the second half fueled the comeback. “We had some jitters in the first half and sat back in a zone, but in the second half we were able to take advantage of our quickness and athleticism.”

Pony Boys, Girls FallChincoteague fell to Holly Grove 46-

35 Tuesday night on the road.Jaquan Persinger led the Ponies

with 7 points, with Trevor Reed, Larry Harper and Mason Marshall each tal-lying 6 points. Kyle Gentry grabbed seven rebounds, while Marshall had

six steals. Coach Will Thompson said his defense

played strong. “We made too many mis-takes on offense. In the second half, turn-overs hurt us. It’s a building process.”

On Wednesday, the Chincoteague boys lost a hard-fought game to Salis-bury School 44-42. Trevor Reed scored 10 points and hit a three in the fourth quar-ter to give the Ponies the lead. Mason Marshall led the Ponies with 12 points, and Jaquan Pesinger added eight. Kyle Gentry had six points and 10 rebounds.

Cowell, a 6-5 forward for Salisbury, scored 28 points and a game-tying three with 24 seconds left before Bendi Papp had a game-winning putback with two seconds remaining.

“We fought to the end, and I am proud of our improvement,” said Pony coach Thompson.

The Chincoteague girls lost to Holly Grove 43-15 Tuesday night, with Chel-sea Pitts leading the Lady Ponies with 7 points and Kristin Fox adding 4.

Coach Kristin Fox said her young team had difficulty finding shots early, but showed some good things. “They moved to the ball, set picks, improvised on their plays to open up. Don’t get me wrong — we have our work cut out for us. But, I’m pleased with the way they played as a team.”

Viking Boys, Girls WinMichael Riopel led Broadwater to a

66-56 win over Denbigh Tuesday night on the road with 26 points, including 4 of 5 from 3-point range. Matt Mc-Caskill had 19 points on 7-of-9 shoot-ing from the floor, and Brendon Bur-rows added 12 for the Vikes.

Broadwater held only a 2-point lead at halftime, but pulled away with a 22-13 margin in the third quarter.

Sam Thomas led Denbigh with 32 points.

The Broadwater girls defeated Den-bigh 39-25 Tuesday night, as Katie Wendell scored 16 points to lead the Lady Vikings. Anna Sexauer, only an eighth grader, added 9 points on 4-of-7 shooting from the floor. Jenna Hare and Kathleen Drasft had 6 and 4 points, respectively.

Broadwater opened up a 16-4 first-quarter lead and then stretched its margin, leading 32-9 at halftime.

Arcadia High School’s Josh Sanns will participate in the U.S. Army National Combine this January in San An-tonio, Texas.

Sanns, a junior, will join 500 of the nation’s top high-school underclassmen at the annual even that measures players’ speed, strength, quickness and football skill.

Sanns, a Shore All-District quarterback for the Fire-birds, was selected for the National Combine after he participated in a Top Gun high-school football camp in Dublin, Ohio, last summer.

Sanns was invited to the elite program, which accepts only the top 15 percent of players from their respective regional Football University camps.

At the combine in January, Sanns will have the oppor-tunity to perform before top scouts.

Sanns is the son of John and Sun Sanns of Hallwood.

Sanns Invited to National Football Combine

Northampton wrestling opens its season tomorrow at Norview in a match involving Smithfield, John Ran-dolph, Tucker, Western Branch and Norview. The Jackets are coming off a regional championship and a strong showing at the state meet.

Jacket coach Will Leland says he is optimistic about the season, despite the loss of key wrestlers, including three-time state champion Casey Paglia.

“Obviously, we lost quite a few guys from last year’s regional championship team, but this new group is learning fast and my hopes are by mid- to late January we will be ready for another run at a title. My returning wrestlers are Steven Wilson, Charlie Demarino, Baxter Wescoat, Aden Ingram, Alan Killebrew, Aaron Ellmann, Ediel Car-ranza, and Hakeem Berry.

“There are many first-year wrestlers who are looking to break into the lineup who are working hard. Taylor Shrie-ves, Brian Terron, Garrett Marsh, DJ Upshur, José Ibarra, Chris Montalvo, Hunter Elliot, Solomon Owens, DeVante Hairston, and John Curry are all bat-tling for spots up and down the lineup.

“I have told my wrestlers that hard work and discipline pay off in the end. Watching the clock is unacceptable in our wrestling room. They need to get

everything they can out of every min-ute that they are in practice.”

The ESSHL will be back in action Sunday, Dec. 8, starting at 1 p.m. at Parksley Town Park.

According to Julie Ball’s fishing re-port, anglers taking advantage of re-cent breaks in the weather to get out on the open water were rewarded as bigger rockfish had moved into the lower bay, resulting in catches over 45-pounds.

Rockfish enthusiasts are thrilled with the first wave of big cows respond-ing true to form for boats drifting eels along the channel edges and shoals off the Eastern Shore. Drifting with eels is an effective technique resulting in fewer, but a larger class of fish. Expect

the really big rockfish pushing over 50 pounds to debut soon.

According to the folks at Chris’ Bait and Tackle, anglers are intercepting these larger fish while drifting with eels anywhere from Cape Charles to Buoy 18. Anglers also are starting to hook nicer stripers while dipping live eels at various depths from the fourth island to the high rise of the bridge-Tunnel at night, with some fish rang-ing between 30 and 38 pounds.

Although bigger fish are filtering in, striped bass of all sizes all are keeping

most anglers content all over the low-er bay. Schoolies are hitting for light tackle casters working bridge pilings, while boats using live bait, chunking, and wire lining over the tubes of the bridge-tunnel are finding steady action with 20 to 30 pounders.

Anglers also are cleaning up with 24- to 28-inch rockfish while casting poppers and Wind Cheaters at the islands and the tubes of the bridge-tunnel at daybreak. Skinny water an-glers are still finding 22- to 26-inch fish within the local inlets around dock

lighting after dark. Folks casting from the shore near the Lesner Bridge are finding some fish ranging to nearly 30 inches this week.

Aaron Reed leads Chris’ Bait and Tackle Rockfish Tourney with a 56-pound, 6-ounce striper. The tourna-ment concludes Sunday and benefits the Northampton Toy Closet.

The Atlantic Volunteer Fire Com-pany Rockfish Derby is being held this weekend.

Call 824-4844 for information on the tourney.

Cat Abandonment from Car Unconscionable

Dear Editor:On Nov. 26, my wife and I witnessed a woman driv-

ing a white pick-up truck, stop her truck and throw out a mature black-and-white cat. This occurred about 2:15 in the afternoon on Drummondtown Road near the old Wachapreague green-box site.

The startled cat sat in the road as the woman speedily drove away. How callous, how heartless, how cruel! One would have to wonder, as she indulged in her Thanksgiving festivities, did she give thought to what she did to that poor creature who now hovers in the cold and rainy outdoors, abandoned, frightened and hungry.

Shame on you, lady in the white pickup … shame on you!

Dan Hillman, Locustville

There are 19 days until Christ-mas. AHHHH! The pressure is on and the holiday season is in

full swing. It’s time to sing, worship, give gifts, donate, party, eat, decorate and just plain get worn out.

Does December have to be so hec-tic? Uh, yeah! Otherwise we might think it was January and we know how long that month can last. How can we make things go more smooth-ly? I suggest we just add some more celebrations to our “To Do List.” Why the heck not?

Today is St. Nicholas Day! It’s where

the whole tradition of hanging stock-ings by the fireplace (or wherever) came from. According to an ancient legend, the predecessor of Santa Claus was known to throw small bags of gold coins into the open windows of poor homes. A few went into a sock that was hung to dry. No, you probably shouldn’t leave your windows open. BRRR. It’s cold out there. But why not search the pock-ets of those clothes you’ve got stored in the closet? Or check out the sock drawer and see what you can find. Wouldn’t a $20 bill be a sight for sore eyes? Oh yippee! Just go ahead and look under the couch cushions while you’re at it.

Let’s give National Cotton Candy Day a try tomorrow. The usual pink and blue treat was originally called “Fairy floss.” The suggested way to celebrate is to create a carnival at-mosphere.

Pretend to be a Time Traveler Day is on Dec. 8. I think I’ll go back to 1989. It

is also Worldwide Candle Lighting Day and World Choral Day. I like choices, don’t you?

According to www.mentalfloss.com, Dec. 12 is the Festival of Unmention-able Thoughts Day. “We would love to tell you about the origin of this fest or

how one goes about celebrating it, but, well, common de-cency prevents us,” the website states. Should I say more? Nope. It is also Gin-gerbread House Day.

Dec. 12 was the day Frank Sinatra Jr. was returned after being kidnapped in 1963. There’s something to acknowledge. In addition, shooting began for the Star Trek pilot, “The Cage” on Dec. 12, 1964, and Joe Namath played his last game as a Jet on Dec. 12, 1976.

Friday, Dec. 13, is National Cocoa Day. Any excuse to celebrate choco-late is all right with me, which is why Dec. 16 is National Chocolate Covered Anything Day and Dec. 24 is National Chocolate Day. Just can’t get enough of

that chocolate stuff.National Wear a Plunger on Your

Head Day is Dec. 18. The first person to email me at [email protected] about posing for such a picture will see it in an upcoming edition.

Answer The Telephone Like Buddy The Elf Day is also Dec.18

Look on the Bright Side Day is Dec. 21. We can all use a little of that on the shortest day of the year. Five days lat-er, the Eastern Shore Post will put out its last paper of 2013. We will also cel-ebrate the 35th birthday of colleague Angie Huether Crutchley on the day after Christmas. I predict it will snow for the event.

Dec. 27 is Make Cut Out Snow-flakes Day and National Fruitcake Day. These are a few of my favorite things.

Dec. 31 is Make Up Your Mind Day. This is NOT the holiday for all us pro-crastinators who have been waiting for the very last minute to make impor-tant decisions. I think I’ll put off any determinations until next year. Doing anything else would just get in the way of celebrating December.
