MRSA Confirmed At Cluster Springs

School officials have verified that a confirmed case of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA, has surfaced at Cluster Springs Elementary School.
The school system sent a letter home to parents of all children in the school Tuesday informing them that MRSA had been positively identified at the school.
”We’re following the same procedures as in the past to make sure schools are clean and our students are safe,” said Assistant Superintendent for Instruction Joe Griles on Thursday. An earlier case of MRSA was reported in South Boston Elementary School in January.
Griles said the Cluster Springs student who had the infection was under the care of a physician, but has returned to school.
“The classroom was sanitized before students returned to school Wednesday,” Griles explained. “Our school nurses and teachers are aware of the situation and are keeping close watch on any students who have open cuts or sores.”
“We use a cleaning solution in all county schools that will control staph,” the assistant superintendent said. “We’re handling this the way the health department advised, and we’re working to keep our schools clean and sanitized.”
According to Superintendent Paul Stapleton, the school system put a plan in motion when the first case of MRSA was reported in August in this region of the state. “We put all of our principals and nurses on notice about the possibility of the MRSA staph infection,” Stapleton said.
The school nurse department sent a list of preventative measures for MRSA to all faculty and staff in September. The measures for all schools include hand washing or use of an alcohol-based sanitizer by teachers and children and keeping cuts and scrapes clean and covered with a bandage. Preventative measures for elementary schools included not sharing personal items, such as blankets, mats or clothing.
Health department officials said MRSA bacteria is common in the environment. It’s carried primarily on the skin of healthy people and is the cause of minor skin infections. One out of every 100 people are colonized with it, health officials said.
Staph bacteria, such as MRSA, can cause skin infections that may look like a pimple or boil and can be red, swollen, painful, or have pus or other drainage, according to the fact sheet released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The more serious infections may cause pneumonia, bloodstream infections or surgical wound infections.
In the 1990s, a different type of MRSA began showing up outside of hospitals and other healthcare facilities. The Mayo Clinic said in an article on its website that form of staph is known as community-associated or CA-MRSA.
MRSA is a form of staph that is resistant to antibiotics called beta-lactams. These include methicillin, oxacillin, penicillin and amoxicillin, according to Millie Lavaway, infection prevention and control practitioner for Halifax Regional Health System.
This strain of staph is responsible for a number of serious skin and soft tissue infections and also for a serious form of pneumonia. Health officials said said this form of MRSA can produce toxins, and if they become invasive they can spread through the bloodstream, making it much harder to treat.
There have been no reports of any deaths attributed to MRSA in the health district that includes Halifax, Mecklenburg and Brunswick counties, health department officials said.
For more information about MRSA, contact the Halifax County Health Department or a medical professional.

Three Injured In Crash

Three Halifax County residents were injured Monday night in a single vehicle crash in Mecklenburg County, according to state police.
Sgt. David Cooper said a 1993 Jeep driven by Robin Darrell Elliott, 45, of Virgie Cole Road, South Boston, was traveling at a high rate of speed when it rounded a curve. Cooper said Elliott lost control of the Jeep, and it ran off the right side of the road and overturned.
Elliott and two passengers in the Jeep, Ricky Elliott, 50, and a 14-year-old juvenile, were ejected from the vehicle when it overturned, said Cooper. He said none of the three was wearing a seatbelt.
Cooper said the three were transported by EMS personnel to Halifax Regional Hospital. Robin and Ricky Elliott were treated and released, according to a hospital spokesperson.
The juvenile was subsequently transported to the Duke Medical Center, where a spokesperson reported him in good condition.
The crash occurred around 9:40 p.m. Monday on Rt. 722, three miles north of U.S. 58, near the Mecklenburg-Halifax County line.
Trooper C.A. Stevenson, the investigating officer, reported the Jeep as a total loss, Cooper said. Stevenson charged Robin Elliott with reckless driving.
A Drakes Branch man was slightly injured in a two-vehicle crash Tuesday afternoon in front of the high school, according to South Boston Police.
Lt. D.W. Barker said Herbert Holloway, 72, was slightly injured when his 2003 GMC Envoy turned left from the high school parking lot access road onto Old Halifax Road and was struck by a 2002 Chevrolet Silverado driven by Joseph Wilkerson, 28, of Alton.
Barker said the Silverado was traveling south and ran the red light where the access road intersects Old Halifax Road.
Holloway was transported to Halifax Regional Hospital where he was treated for his injuries and released, according to a hospital spokesperson.
Investigating Officer B.D. Barksdale estimated damages at $5,000 to each vehicle. He charged Wilkerson with failure to obey a traffic signal.

Scenic River Designation Initiated For Dan, Banister

Halifax County Supervisors and Halifax and South Boston Town Councils have authorized the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) to initiate preliminary studies that could ultimately designate the Banister and Dan Rivers as scenic rivers.
The purpose of the designation would be to encourage the protection and preservation of the two area rivers.
The board took action following a scenic rivers presentation by Lynn M. Crump, an environmental programs planner with the DCR, who explained the application process in detail.
She appeared before the three governing bodies at the request of Halifax Town Council, which is seeking the scenic river designation for the Banister.
Following Crump’s presentation, ED-5 Supervisor James Edmunds suggested preliminary studies also should be initiated for the Dan River, another rich natural resource that flows through much of Halifax County.
Crump explained that since the Virginia Scenic Rivers program began in 1970, 24 river segments totaling 514 miles have been designated state scenic rivers, with the Staunton River being the first in 1973.
Nine are located in the Mountain region, 10 in the Piedmont, and five in the Coastal region of the state, she added.
The intent of the Virginia Scenic Rivers program, according to Crump, is to identify, recognize and provide a level of protection to those rivers whose scenic beauty, historic importance, recreational value and natural characteristics make them resources of particular importance.
Before a river or river segment can be designated, Crump said the DCR staff must first study the waterway to determine if it qualifies for scenic river status.
Scenic river studies are usually initiated at the request of local governments, she said, explaining the program is “purely voluntary.”
“We look for the community to make the initial request,” she said. However the General Assembly and state agencies can also request an evaluation.
Upon receiving a request, DCR conducts a river evaluation that includes a map survey and field study to validate existing land use or quality.
Crump said staff and local residents boat or canoe a stretch of river rating its characteristics while conducting the field evaluation.
Each river segment is evaluated using 11 factors or criteria, she explained, providing a uniform gauge by which all waterways are measured.
Some of these factors include water quality, corridor development, historic features, natural features, visual appeal, quality of fisheries and the presence of habitat of unique species.
If a river qualifies, Crump said DCR staff would then prepare a scenic river report describing the waterway.
The report, which includes resolutions of support from local governments and comments from state agencies, also serves as a planning document for future stewardship of the river, she added.
The final step in the process is passage by the General Assembly of a bill designating the waterway a state scenic river.
In addition to encouraging protection and preservation of the river, scenic river designation declares the protection of a river’s scenic values to be a beneficial purpose of water resource policy.
Crump explained designation requires appointment of an administering agency such as the DCR and requires the Virginia Scenic Rivers Advisory Board, whose 15 members are appointed by the governor, to advise the DCR director on the federal, state or local plans that impact the designated river segment and to give local citizens a voice in river-related issues.
After designation, the General Assembly must approve construction of any dam that would result in an impediment to the natural flow of the river, she added.
For properties along designated scenic rivers, a special tax assessment may be given to reduce the tax liability, as valued by the State Land Evaluation Advisory Council, if land use taxation is adopted by the locality.
According to Crump, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) recognizes Virginia’s designated Scenic River System ensuring the qualities of the designated river are considered during licensing or relicensing of federal projects on the river.
Designation does not give the state control over land use, nor does it carry with it any land use controls.
She said designation does not give the public any right to use privately owned land, and the state does not commercially promote its scenic rivers.
Crump noted that recreational use of the 24 designated segments of rivers currently in the system has not increased any more than the use of high quality streams not in the system.
In a nutshell, she said, “Scenic river designation constitutes official recognition of the natural, scenic, historic and recreational values of some of the state’s most valuable riverine resources and provides them with a measure of protection not afforded other rivers.
“In addition, it gives riparian landowners and other local citizens a stronger voice in any government action or decisions that have the potential to impact ‘their’ river,” Crump added.
Concerned about the impact of a proposed mining site in neighboring Pittsylvania County on the Banister River, Halifax Councilman Jack Dunavant asked the DCR representative whether scenic river designation would have any impact in Richmond against “that sort of pollution.”
“There’s no way that you can mine a mountain full of uranium without it getting into the watershed, and of course the watershed is ultimately the Banister River,” Dunavant said.
Crump said the DCR would work with the Department of Environmental Quality to get “really stringent mitigation for that. DEQ would want to do that anyway, but what we would be looking for is a little bit extra because it was designated.”
She agreed DCR would step in and help if called, “if we could.”
However, Crump noted the scenic river program does not have any legislation behind it that would support any kind of action.
“But we could say, ‘It is a scenic river, the federal and state environmental review processes require that you make sure the (uranium) project doesn’t become a detriment to the river,” she concluded.

Comets Down PH; Face GW Tonight

By Joe Chandler
Sports Editor
The Halifax County High School varsity baseball team, trying to stay in the hunt for the Western Valley District regular-season championship, faces a big test tonight when it faces archrival GW in Danville.
Tonight’s game at Dan Daniels Park begins at 7 p.m.
Halifax County (7-5 overall, 2-2 district) enters tonight’s game trailing GW and E.C. Glass by one game in the district standings and trails Franklin County by a half a game. GW and E.C. Glass are both 3-1 in district action and Franklin County is 2-1. Standing at 2-2, the Comets need a win in order to stay in contention.
Wednesday night, the Comets downed Patrick Henry 8-1 in Roanoke with Jeremy Foster throwing a complete game and allowing five scattered hits and two walks. Foster, making his first start on the mound, struck out eight Patrick Henry batters.
While Foster got the job done on the mound, his teammates backed him up with some solid defensive play and pounded Patrick Henry pitchers for 14 hits that included a solo homer by Foster in the top of the second inning that put the Comets up 1-0.
Patrick Henry tied the game in the bottom of the second inning when Foster struck the Patriots’ Gary Fitzgerald with a pitch and Fitzgerald later scored on a Comets error.
Halifax County regained the lead with a run in the top of the fifth inning. Kaleb Long singled and scored on a double by Justin Bagbey to give Halifax County a 2-1 lead.
A six-run rally by the Comets in the top of the sixth inning put the Comets over the top. The Comets had six hits in the big inning including a run-scoring bunt single by Kyle Long, back-to-back run-scoring singles by Josh Williams and Kaleb Long and a two-RBI single by Michael Ferrell.
Patrick Henry got two runners on the sacks in the bottom of the seventh inning on a Comets error and a walk but the Comets retired the next three Patriots batters in a row with Foster striking out two of them.
Offensively, the Comets were led by Eric Brandon who had a big 3-4 night at the plate that included a double in the first inning and a pair of singles along with two RBIs. Bagbey, Dale Trent, Kyle Long and Kaleb Long all had two hits each.
Ferrell, Foster, and Williams had one hit apiece.

Varsity Boys Booters Fall To Patrick Henry

By Doug Ford
G-V Staff Writer
Visiting Patrick Henry scored five first-half goals and cruised from there to an 8-0 win over the Comets varsity boys soccer team Wednesday at Tuck Dillard Stadium.
The Patriots scored at the 28:00 mark of the first half, and added a penalty kick for a 2-0 advantage at the 19:33 mark.
Goals at the 13:00, 11:25 and 3:00 marks of the first half led to the five-goal halftime advantage, and the Patriots added three more tallies in the second half.
Many of the same issues that have plagued the Comets thus far in a winless district campaign haunted them again against the Patriots, according to coach Frank Shealy, who counted 18 shots on goal for the visitors in the first half alone.
“They had 35 shots on goal for the game and I think we had three (two by Tyler Truitt),” said Shealy.
“Gabe Aguilar was in goal for us in the first half and J.W. Webb in the second, with each having eight saves.
“They did pretty well considering the onslaught because we played a pure defensive game, especially in the first half and most of the second,” he continued.
“Three or four PH goals in the first half came after they were one-on-one with our goalie, when we didn’t mark up and someone got past us.
“On a couple in the second half, J.W. stopped the first shot, but the ball bounced away and they finished in front of the net.”
Lack of offense has been a problem for the Comets, and it all comes down to lack of touches and unforced turnovers, added Shealy.
“We’re not getting enough touches. I counted 35 unforced turnovers in the first half and about that many after halftime.
“That first touch is crucial. We didn’t create any offensive opportunities in the first half, and we had a few runs toward the end.”
It’s not a matter of simply knowing what to do but in carrying out the game plan, explained Shealy.
“Knowledge-wise, we know what to do sometimes, but execution is another thing,” said Shealy.
“We really have to work on the first touch and moving off the ball.”
The Comets varsity boys soccer team travels to Danville tonight for a key district match with rival GW.

Comets Girls Netters Lose To Franklin County, Glass

By Doug Ford
G-V Staff Writer
The Comets girls tennis team dropped two matches earlier this week, 6-3 to Franklin County and 7-2 to E.C. Glass.
Comets coach Greg Donner said his team had a lot of chances to pull out a win against Franklin County but just couldn’t get a win when they needed it.
“We had a good shot at all three doubles, winning the first set in numbers one, two and three doubles, but let it get away from us,” said Donner.
“It was a warm day and I think that hurt us a lot with fatigue being a factor.”
Donner added that Shanna Luck at number one singles and Luck and Teylor Edmonds at number one doubles are in position for a good seed in the district tournament.

E.C. Glass 7 Halifax County
Shanna Luck and Jessica Palmer won at numbers one and six singles, but their teammates weren’t as fortunate in a 7-2 loss to Glass in a home match played Tuesday.
Donner applauded the effort put forth by his team against a strong Glass squad.
“Overall, I think we played some excellent matches against one of the strongest teams in the state,” said Donner.
“Shanna and Jessica looked very strong and Jessica had to come from a set down to get a win.
“In all our matches we looked better than we have recently and I think it will help us as we get into the most critical part of our schedule,” continued Donner. “I feel our youngest players are giving us some of our best matches and we are relying on them down the stretch.
