Controversy at the Lake: Proposed new rules have members up in arms

Written by Christina Dimeo Guseman, Correspondent | 15 May 2013

Hearing delaying because of protests
“I was flabbergasted,” Lake Monticello resident Deborah Nixon recalled. “If I hadn’t been working the camera I would have said something.”
So began a storm of controversy that has swept over Lake Monticello since the April 25 meeting of its board of directors.
Busy filming the directors’ meeting for broadcast on channel 977, Nixon’s ears perked up when vice president Joy Bauserman read her proposed policy changes to the rest of the board. If the changes are adopted, children under the age of 16 will no longer be allowed to use most Lake Monticello Owners’ Association (LMOA) amenities without adult supervision.

Quite the show: FCHS presents Pops Concert

Written by Lynn Stayton-Eurell | 15 May 2013

Photo courtesy of Horace Scruggs After more than 10 performances during the spring semester alone, how does one concert stand out above the rest? With 23 years of experience as Fluvanna County High School choral director, Horace Scruggs knows how to make a concert pop. And this year’s Pops Concert is designed to do just that.
“This year we’re trying to make it more than a concert,” declared Scruggs. “We’re really trying to make it a show with full choreography and lighting.” Gone are the days of squeezing into a gymnasium with sound bouncing all over the walls and fizzling into corners. Now the choral department has come home to its own state-of-the-art auditorium in the new high school. Making this Pops Concert an event to remember will be easy.
So this Sunday (May 19) at 4 p.m., the FCHS choral department hopes to see the auditorium packed with community members ready for a good show.
