Fore Kids Golf Tournament
What: Fore Kids Golf Tournament
When: Thursday, Sept. 21. Shotgun start at 1 p.m.
Cost: $320/team of four. Boxed lunches will be provided.
How to signup: Form a team of four and signup by clicking on the green Fore Kids Golf Tournament button on PCASA.org or contact Will Merritt ([email protected]).
The Fore Kids Golf Tournament is open to all golfers and is hosted by VDOT’s Culpeper District Commonwealth of Virginia Campaign (CVC) Committee, which is a voluntary charitable giving program for state employees that raises funds for numerous nonprofit health and humanitarian organizations throughout the state of Virginia.
This tournament will benefit Piedmont CASA, which provides and supports trained volunteers to advocate for abused and neglected children. Last year, they served 294 boys and girls – more than ever before. Research shows that children with CASA Volunteers spend less time in court, less time in foster homes, obtain more medical care, do better in school, and find safe and permanent homes faster – all keys to breaking the debilitating cycle of abuse and neglect. No other organization performs this service and they do not charge fees.
Foothill Crossing Rezoning Hearing – 21 January
As noted on the Crozet Calendar, there is going to be a community meeting about the rezoning hearing for the next phase of Foothill Crossing on 21 January at Crozet Library at 7pm. Based on the comments I’ve received, I suspect it should be well attended.
It looks like the big change is that the developer is seeking to add attached homes to the mix, a change from having only single family homes. More information here.
Disclosure: I’m a Realtor. I have a professional opinion about this. If you’re interested, ask me.
Dig into the project at Albemarle County’s great County View site; search for Application# SUB201400214, which reads (prior to this rezoning coming forth):

Albemarle an Appalachian Trail Community?
Our trails are part of what make Albemarle special … they are in the very early stages of this conversation, but community input would be quite valuable.
via email –
Albemarle County is in the process of considering designation as an Appalachian Trail Community, and as someone who is a critical stakeholder in Crozet and a supporter of our local trail system we wanted to bring you into the conversation on this issue. We are at the very early stages of exploring this process, and will be hearing a presentation from Angie Sheldon with the Appalachian Trail organization on Tuesday, January 15, at 4:00 pm in Room 435 of the County Office Building on McIntire Road.
