<p>Every generation of Patty Sevre&#39;s family has been engraving glass since the 1740&#39;s. She creates these beautiful works of art using the time honored methods of revolving stones, copper wheels, and cooling water handed down through the generations. Every aspect of her work is freehand and shows the quality her keen eyes, sure hands, and 50 years of experience bring to a very old skill.</p>
<p>In her own words:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Over the last 50 years, I have &nbsp;cut special orders for Tiffany &amp; Co., Shreve Crump &amp; Low, Boston, Ma. And &nbsp;many Gift stores all over these United States and did consultant work teaching the fine art of glass cutting and designed the lathe for turning the wheels. Now I hand carve people&#39;s portraits in glass, awards, corporate gifts, logos and any kind of art work &nbsp;because crystal is my canvas. I enjoy it not because of &nbsp;just the art but for the history of it, and about my family.</p>

<p>We&rsquo;re excited to welcome the top Virginia triathletes that will be competing to represent Virginia at this prestigious national event!</p>
<p><strong>About Best of the U.S.</strong></p>
<p>Best of the US Amateur Triathlete Competition is a single-elimination, nationwide tournament qualifying the top three male and female amateur triathletes from each state to race each other head-to-head, regardless of age, at the National Championship. Although most competitors are 25 &#8211; 40, Championship racers have ranged in age from 15 to 51.</p>
<p>Each state has only one designated Qualifier Race. Athletes must be amateurs and a resident of the state to be eligible. Best of the U.S. medalists are the Top Three male and female&nbsp;<em>resident amateurs</em> at the current year&#39;s Qualifier Race for their home state. All six state team members have the opportunity to race for individual awards, and for their state, in the Fastest State Team Competition.&nbsp;New in 2010, are Team awards for the Fastest Male and Fastest Female Teams, in addition to the overal coed Fastest Team awards.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Best of the U.S. Championship affords the nation&#39;s best amateurs their only opportunity to race in an elite, non-age-graded exhibition-style open-course environment. The competition is fierce, and brings out each athlete&#39;s &quot;best game&quot;. Every year athletes finish the race saying &quot;I never knew I could do that!&quot; And that&#39;s why Best of the U.S. exists&#8211;for high-performing amateurs to be inspired to their best, yes. But also to inspire the rest of us: to keep training, keep racing and always do our best.</p>
