Topic: Twin Project” Heritage Nova with “Twin” anchor at
Warrenton, VA & Vienna, VA (Pre­Proposal)
Vision: “What is a “system”?
A system is a network of independent components that work
together to try to accomplish the aim of the system
W. Edward Deming (1900 ­1990) TQM Expert & Professor of Management
Summary: Community twining including “river twining” between two
heritage communities exist as success model in post World War II Europe, with
collaborative leadership from Germany & France, two pre-war enemies.
Phase I of Twin01 Virginia starts with exchange of two “Music
Ambassadors” (identified by PI ) , and the virtual team works to build trust,
knowledge, and motivation to enable small support groups via non-profits, small
business, & citizen engagement. Virtual team based project proposal
development is done via grant.gov RFP and/or foundation grants as appropriate.

Potomac R.) Rappahannock River - Upper at Fauquier County,
VA just South of Warrenton, VA is more than a source of
drinking water today! (American Civil War Heritage
Conservation Challenge (1862-1865)

2. Potomac Rivers have American Civil War Heritage (1862-1865) on
going conservation tasks that can be strengthened via “Twin01” as
part of NOVA USA Heritage Bridge.
Philosophy: What is “Community Wealth”?
Here is one central idea: people joining together through a public,
community, neighborhood or business to strengthen economic
vitality & infrastructure, short & long. Citizen engagement is
strengthened when “community wealth” focus is included via a CDA
(Community Development Assoc) or another non-profit, 501-c-3
working to add community vitality on a neighborhood basis as are
the “community twining” success models from post World War II
Germany & France.
