EXCITING HISTORY AND ADVENTRUE TRAIL NEWS
The History & Adventure Trail is pleased to welcome Holly Knoll, also known as the Moton Center, to the Trail. This Saturday, August 11, from 1 pm to 4 pm, visitors will be led on tours of this historic building, now in the process of renovation. Holly Knoll at Cappahosic is the Georgian style retirement home of the late Dr. Robert Russa Moton. It is listed on both the Virginia and National Historic registries. The United Negro College Fund was conceived here, in the 1950s and 1960s is was known as a “think tank” for issues of social justice, and under the 400-year-old live oak, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is said to have drafted his “I Have A Dream” speech.
Other sites participating in the August 11 History & Adventure Trail are Abingdon Episcopal Church, Abingdon Glebe, Bethel Baptist Church and Rosewell Ruins. These buildings and exhibits are usually open to the public on a limited basis, so this is a great opportunity for you to visit. All sites are open from 1 pm to 4 pm.
Admission is free with the exception of Rosewell; however, all of the sites gladly accept donations to help fund their maintenance. Rosewell admission is $4 per adult and $2 per child 6-12 years.
A brochure and map of all sites is available at the Gloucester Visitor Center on the historic Court Circle or online at www.gloucesterva.info/pr/tourism/ht.htm. For more information, call 804-693-0014.

Training Workshop for Mentors April 25, 2006 5-8 p.m.
April is National Volunteer Month and volunteers will be recognized throughout the month for the many services they offer our community. On April 25th from 5-8 p.m. the Virginia Mentoring Partnership will be offering a training workshop and light dinner for anyone currently in a mentor volunteer position or to anyone interested in learning more about this service. This event is being held at Petsworth Elementary School but is open to anyone in the schools or community who is interested.
The mission of Virginia Mentoring Partnership is to provide educational services to increase the quality of mentoring relationships for children and youth in the state of Virginia. Being a mentor is a matter of trust. Mentoring is a structured and trusting relationship that brings young people together with caring individuals who offer guidance, support and encouragement aimed at developing the competence and character of the mentee. A mentor provides a young person with support, counsel, friendship, reinforcement and constructive example. Mentors are good listeners, people who care, people who want to help young people bring out strengths that are already there
How many kids need mentors? In the US, about 2.5 million kids are in formal mentoring relationships. 15.1 million are still waiting for their chance.
If you are interested in becoming a mentor or learning more about it, please contact Cindy Thomas, Petsworth Community Education Coordinator at 693-4555. Please RSVP by April, 24, 2006. You may also register through your Community Education Coordinator at 693-1419.

ARK PARK SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
Message from the Director
I am writing to all of the Parks, Recreation and Tourism enthusiasts to ask for your support in fixing a problem at Ark Park. This weekend we had a number of cars that parked on Number Nine Road and prevented two way traffic. I think people didn`t realize that we have additional new parking towards the rear of the property. We are going to install new signs and create a drop off zone for dropping off equipment and people that is off of the road.
It is imperative that we work with our neighbors who have voiced many concerns about how people block the road during soccer games. We need everyone to walk a few more steps and to park in legitimate spaces. There are hundreds of spaces available along the new road and an overflow field. For the families of older youth playing on the front field, we need you to also not park along the road. If any portion of your tires are on the road, you are not parked correctly.
Thank you for your cooperation. I hope the new signage and drop off zone will make your time at Ark Park more enjoyable.
Carol Steele

WALKING TIP OF THE WEEK
What`s the simplest way to determine how fast I`m walking?
The easiest way to gauge your speed without wearing a pedometer--or getting in your car and measuring mileage, which can be pretty difficult unless you walk along a street--is to count your number of steps per minute. The experts use this number to calculate pace, based on an average stride length of 2½ feet. (Stride length is the distance from the heel of one foot to the heel of the other foot when you`re taking a step.) They`ve already done the math for you.
70 steps per minute equals 30 minutes per mile, or 2 miles per hour.
105 steps per minute equals 20 minutes per mile, or 3 miles per hour.
140 steps per minute equals 15 minutes per mile, or 4 miles per hour.
If you pay attention to your steps, after a while you`ll be able to estimate your pace fairly accurately without bothering to count. You`ll just know what a 20-minute mile or a 15-minute mile feels like.

TO: Boating Enthusiasts
FROM: Carol Steele, Director of Parks, Recreation and Tourism
DATE: February 18, 2003
SUBJECT: Gloucester Point Boat Ramp
Gloucester County recently submitted a grant application to the Virginia Marine Resources Commission (VMRC) for assistance with rebuilding the original three lane boat landings that are underneath the Coleman Bridge. The request for $75,000 was made through the Saltwater Recreational Fishing License Funds. The Game and Inland Fisheries Department will cover the remaining cost of the project ($225,000).
A public hearing on the grant requests will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, March 10, at the VMRC Office, 2600 Washington Avenue in Newport News. We invite you to attend and encourage you to speak in support of our request. If you need assistance with transportation, please let me know. We can provide a van if necessary. This is a competitive process and not all grants will be funded. Any support you can offer would be appreciated.
The County’s request does not address the landing closest to Gloucester Point Beach. It is anticipated that we will close these lanes when funding becomes available. The newer ramps have been a constant maintenance problem and once the other landing has been re-built properly, the ramps closest to the beach will not be needed.
The grant request includes improving the parking lot to allow for more efficient use of the parking and reducing the maintenance concerns. If funding is approved, bidding will begin this summer and construction will occur in the fall. The construction would be complete by the end of January 2004.
Please do not hesitate to call or email (csteele@gloucesterva.info) me if you have any questions or need assistance with transportation. Thank you for your past support.
