A group of Landrum residents and businesses has formed to get more tourists to the city, with the first project being trying to get citizens to approve a referendum

allowing restaurants to sell alco-hol on Sundays.

Landrum Tomorrow has sent out approximately 400 mailers explaining the organization’s view of the revenue benefits the

city would see from the passage of the alcohol referendum.

Polk sheriff, SBI bust second meth lab this yearby Leah Justice

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office and N.C. State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) this week busted their second metham-phetamine lab in Polk County this year.

The lab was discovered in the Green Creek community on Monday, Nov. 1.

Flint Oniel Henderson, 52, of 560 Phillip Henderson Road, Rutherfordton, N.C., was ar-rested and charged with one count of felony manufacturing methamphetamine, one count of felony maintaining a vehicle/dwelling/place for a controlled substance, one count of felony possession/distribution of meth-amphetamine precursor and one count of felony possession of weapon of mass destruction, according to sheriff’s office

reports.Also arrested was Karrie

Leigh Kight, 29, of 560 Phillip Henderson Road, Rutherford-ton, N.C., who was charged with one count of possession of drug paraphernalia.

Investigators said they ex-ecuted a search warrant of the suspected meth lab and located a variety of material used in the production of methamphet-amine, including decongestants, lithium batteries, salts and propane. The methamphet-amine was being produced in a 20-ounce plastic bottle, accord-ing to the sheriff’s office.

A hazardous materials team out of Spartanburg, S.C., was called in to clean up the mate-rial.

The Green Creek lab, Polk’s second this year, was classified

Arrested in the Sunny View bust were Jessica Nicole Har-din and Jason Carroll Barnes, who were charged with manu-facturing methamphetamine and possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, as well as charges associated with having two toddlers in the home while producing meth-amphetamine.

Hardin and Barnes were scheduled to appear in Polk County District Court yester-day, Wednesday, Nov. 2.

No children were living in the home where the Green Creek meth lab was busted this week.

Henderson was given a $25,000 bond, according to sheriff’s office reports, while Kight was released on a written promise to appear in court.

group will also do other projects to help bring more tourists to Landrum, with one of the ulti-mate goals of bringing a hotel to the city.

“We have to get foot traffic,” Strickland said. “We have to look at the big picture. It’s not just about selling alcohol on Sundays. It’s about ge t t ing people to visit.”

L a n d r u m Tomorrow said passing the referendum would bring $15,000 in new annual revenue for the city from permit fees that qualifying restaurants would purchase, in addition to creating 15 new jobs to handle the additional business, $510,000 in additional gross sales per year for restaurants and $10,450 in additional hos-pitality tax and business license fee revenue for the city.

The referendum will be in-cluded on the ballot next Tues-day, Nov. 8 for the local elec-tion, along with city council and school board elections.

Strickland said Landrum

Tomorrow members have also hired a phone bank to call the 400 households in the city limits that include Landrum’s 1,300 registered voters.

“We have local restaurant owners, small business own-ers and interested citizens,

a l l o f w h o m trust adults to make the same kind of choices they make ev-ery other day of the week,” said Strickland. “On Tuesday, Nov. 8, we are confident that city resi-dents will vote

yes to trust adults to decide for themselves, yes to strengthen our local economy and yes to putting us on an equal footing with Greenville, Spartanburg, Greer and Tryon.”

The idea of a referendum was brought to city council this year by Landrum businesses and council agreed to place the following question on this year’s ballot for residents to decide:

A majority vote will be re-quired to pass the referendum. If approved, restaurants in the city limits would be able to serve alcohol on Sundays. The referendum will not affect off-site alcohol sales, such as from convenience or grocery stores. The state of South Carolina is dry on Sundays, but many cit-ies have approved referendums allowing restaurants to serve alcohol. North Carolina allows Sunday alcohol sales both on-site and off-site.

city council that they have had to close on Sundays as a result of decreased business because alcohol can be sold on Sunday in nearby areas, such as Columbus, Saluda and Tryon in North Carolina and Spartanburg and Greenville in South Carolina.

Strickland said the passage of the referendum would help other businesses in addition to restaurants, such as antique shops, because it will bring more people to Landrum and they will not only eat but will visit shops.

Landrum Tomorrow’s mis-sion is to focus on the quality of life in Landrum and it economic growth and stability, Strickland said. Landrum Tomorrow meets once per week at Landrum City Hall.

Hubert Charles Crater is one of many veterans featured in an “Honor and Remember” book created by members of the Tryon United Methodist Church’s nurturing committee. The group compiled biographies of church members or the children of church members who have given their time to the armed services. Those people will be honored at an event Sunday, Nov. 6.

Tryon United Methodist honors and remembers vetsby Samantha Hurst

Tryon United Methodist Church (TUMC) plans to honor veterans Sunday, Nov. 6 with a celebration of their military ca-reers and the creation of a book to keep those memories preserved.

“‘Honor and Remember’ pays tribute to the bravery and sacri-fices of the men and women who have worn our nation’s uniform and have fought for our free-dom,” reads the opening of the book. “This reminds us that the ultimate sacrifice for our eternal freedom was made by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.”

Members of TUMC or their children who have served in any of the eight branches of the military were invited to submit military biographies, as well as photos if they wished, for TUMC’s “Honor and Remem-ber” book.

In all, 40 members responded,

said co-chairs LTC John Albree and Greg Turnage.

“This was a real honor for me to work on,” Albree said.

(Continued on page 7)

“‘Honor and Remember’ pays tribute to the bravery and sacrifices of the men and women who have worn our nation’s uniform and have fought for our freedom. This reminds us that the ultimate sacrifice for our eternal freedom was made by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.”

-- Opening of ‘Honor and Remember’

Page 7: 11-03-11 Daily Bulletin

Albree spent just shy of 26 years in military service – al-most 24 in the Army and almost four in the Marine Corps.

Some participants spent short stints in the armed ser-vices, having been drafted or enlisting during World War II.

A 25-year-o ld Huber t Charles Crater, for example, entered the Navy in June 1944. He served as a radioman on the USS Drexler, which during the battle of Okinawa was hit by two Japanese Kamikaze war-planes and sank in less than a minute. The hit killed 158 crew members, but Crater managed to save two of his shipmates from drowning – they remained afloat until they were rescued two hours later.

A 2003 Landrum High School graduate, Everette Adam Palmer, joined the Army after graduation. Palmer saw combat on multiple deploy-ments in Iraq, including sus-taining serious injuries from an Improvised Explosive Device. Palmer said in his summary that he was overwhelmed by all of the love and prayers he received locally after the attack and when he returned home.

The church will commemo-rate the book and honor its veterans with a ceremony at 11 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 6. The church also invited members of the local VFW and American Legion to attend.

Hear a parable: A hunts-man set out with his seven couple (14) small hounds to loose them for joy and entertainment, and to fulfill that for which beagles were created – the chasing of rabbits.

On a sunny afternoon in the presence of a goodly company, the beagles, hav-ing been duly blessed by the priest on the first hunt of the season, were loosed to nose to and fro amidst the brush. Soon they raised a cry, but the quarry was a fox which led them far from the hunts-man and safety.

For a very long while the huntsman called his errant hounds and searched dili-

gently for them until, over several days and many miles, one by one the ragged and tired beagles were gathered up and taken home to safety.

It really happened. On Sunday, Oct. 16, the Old Tryon Foot Beagles opened their hunting season with a Blessing of the Beagles and a first release of the hounds.

In short order they were off and gone, and I mean really gone, much to hunts-man Randy Mitchell’s dis-may. The 14 beagles raised a cub and took off running willy-nilly throughout the Gowensville area, raising rabbits, foxes, deer and who knows what else. That posed no small problem in location

and retrieval. However, I am happy to

report that all seven couple were finally brought home, though somewhat bedrag-gled and hungry.

What makes this a par-able? In the Parable of the Lost Sheep, Jesus describes how the good shepherd leaves the flock in the wil-derness to go in search of the one lamb which had gone astray. The Parable of the Lost Beagles does the same, though it may make Randy squirm a bit to be compared to the ultimate Good Shepherd.

We humans, like errant beagles, have been loosed on the earth to fulfill our divine purpose – i.e. to do God’s will in God’s creation. However, we are sometimes, if not often, distracted and

led astray by things we find irresistibly attractive, so off we go with God running behind, calling us to return to that for which we are intended.

Even when we blatantly ignore the call of the horn and the voice of the master, and get farther and farther from our true home and pur-pose, the huntsman never ceases to search for us and call us back to him. Like the good shepherd, he works unceasingly to find and retrieve us from among the briars and tangles of life – whatever the cost to himself. And when we are found it is comfort and warmth, not anger and punishment, that await us.

Having raised and chased more than a few errant bea-gles in my life, and having

been one myself more than I care to admit, I can say in all truth that few things are as joyous to master and hound as the moment of finding. Though dirty, wet, hungry, tired and sore, it is all forgotten in the joy of be-ing reunited – and it is even more so for the hound. I have openly wept upon finding one of my beagles lying thin and totally spent, needing a bath, a bowl and a bed.

If I can feel that, if the huntsman has that depth of concern and joy for his pack, how much more love does the divine and perfect Good Shepherd hold for each of us?

Where do I put it? Large-scale composting options

Conservation CornerBetsy Burdett

Laura Williams, Vaughn Loef-fler, Joyce Hicks, Linda Byington and I attended a weeklong course teaching us about small and large scale composting.

Personally, I have minimal interest in backyard compost-ing because I live in the country with chickens eager to deal with kitchen scraps, a manure spreader to take care of manure and plenty of open spaces to deal with yard debris.

In short, our lifestyle is similar to that of country folk 40 years ago. Now we have transportation to en-able us to take our inorganic waste to the dump rather than put them in the trash pit over the hill, as the residents did before us.

You probably have a judgment about that practice, putting gar-bage in the pit out back, but you must remember that most of us do the best we can with the resources available to us.

The Bishop family that lived here before us had very little inorganic trash or plastic to deal with; consequently the garbage pit is small. All that is left now is some broken glass that makes its way to the surface every year, for us to pick out and throw away.

Where do I take it?

To another pit, a bigger one further away from where we live, one that is out of sight. Most folks no longer separate inorganic wastes from organic wastes; it all goes together in a pit somewhere else… out of sight…out of mind. The Bishops were at least respon-sible for their own waste; they kept it at home.

I’m interested in large-scale composting be-cause it addresses problems created by huge amounts of organic waste generated by schools, restaurants, food processing facilities, etc. Modern society has designed a system that releases individuals from their waste problem by re-moving it, for a fee.

The hidden truth is that non-organic waste per person has quadrupled in the past 40 years thanks to plastics, packaging and disposables, and we no longer even know the difference between organic and inorganic wastes. The whole process is set up to make everything easier for the con-sumer, for a fee. And we love it.

Now my mother, God bless her, has been known to tell me how trashy people are who throw

their trash over the side of the hill. I believe that her perspective was a bit limited since she lived in town where a helpful garbage truck came every week to her house. But my mother would not even consider putting food waste in the trashcan, because food waste is organic, and organic waste is simply organic matter in the wrong place.

Organic mat-ter belongs with other organic matter, in the garden or the

yard or the woods. If rabbits found the leftover lettuce, so much the better. The idea that what comes from the earth should return to the earth was as plain to her as night and day. It required no thought; it just was. It just is.

Many things that my mother’s generation taught us was wrong, though much was right. Her gen-eration brought us plastics and disposables, larger corporations and better roads and communica-tion, better education, equal rights for minorities,. The list can go on for pages. But we’ve lost some of the basics.

Our children and grandchil-dren have no clue that putting

leftover tomatoes in the same trash bin as the container those tomatoes came in is robbing the earth of its future. We cannot continue to take the best our earth has to offer in the way of food and nutrients, then bury those nutrients along with plastic and metal contaminants in a sealed pit.

Most of us reading this column are old folks who can remember a simpler life. Some of the things our parents believed have proven through time to have been wrong or superstitious. Some of them were lies promoted by the media, and our parents tended to believe what they read or heard over the radio. We are a bit more savvy, since we know that there are at least as many lies told though the media as truths.

Our job is to sift through those things we learned from our par-ents, to discern those, which were true and those which weren’t. Those elemental truths of our parents need to be brought to light again, before we’re dead and the idea is lost.

There is no such thing as trash; only things that are in the wrong place or in unusable form. As Mother said: Everything in its proper place.

Sneak peek at local businesses participating in Bark-in-the-ParkLocal businesses are stepping

up to help Lennie’s Kids’ second annual “Bark-in-the-Park.”

The following companies have donated prizes for the raffle: Costco of Spartanburg; Red Fox Country Club, Tryon Country Club, Side Street Pizza, Drake House of Landrum, Mount View Grill, Larkin’s in Columbus, Car-ruth’s Furniture, Tammy Gilbert Massage, Nature’s Storehouse, Landrum Car Wash, Landrum Lube, Car Quest of Columbus, Landrum NAPA, Landrum Hard-ware, Gibbs Welding and Crane Service, Inc., Hay Rack of Lan-drum, Williamson’s Paint Center, Landrum Vet, Tryon Mountain Hardware, Cowan’s Hardware, Pet Gallery of Landrum and Book Shelf of Tryon.

Also contributing is Little Mountain Farm Supply, which donated brand new horse blan-kets, feeding buckets, gear bags, halters and much more. These items will be sold during the event.

Bark-in-the-Park will be Nov. 5 from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. at Harmon Field walking trails. The event raises funds for Lennie’s Kids, which works with Foot-hills Humane Society and local vets to assist sick, injured and abandoned animals by helping provide medical care and placing them in foster and forever homes.

A large percentage of these animals come into the shelter with high-level heartworms and are difficult to adopt out because of the expense to treat this con-

dition.Rather than euthanize these

animals, Lennie Rizzo of Len-nie’s Kids finds willing adopters or foster homes and then takes on much of the financial responsibil-ity for their medical care himself, giving them a second chance.

To participate in this fund-raiser, walkers (with or with-out their pets) are asked to get family, friends, co-workers and even strangers to sponsor them by donating money for Lennie’s Kids. No minimum donation is required. Walkers can collect money from sponsors and bring it, along with their walking shoes, on Nov. 5 to take part in this event.

Harmon Field’s trail is just over one mile, and participants

can walk as much or as little as they desire, even looping multi-ple times if they wish. Dogs must be properly leashed. Company, church and school groups are encouraged to take part.

There will be concessions for lunch with grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, chips and drinks available, with all proceeds go-ing to Lennie’s Kids. Lennie’s Kids T-shirts will be available for purchase.

This event is sponsored by Gibbs Welding and Crane Ser-vice, Inc. in Landrum. To register to participate or preorder T-shirts, call 864-457-4544 and ask for Ami or Terri or email [email protected].

TACS hires three new part-time directorsTryon Arts and Crafts School

(TACS) recently reorganized their leadership structure by elim-inating the executive director po-sition and adding three part-time director positions. According to president of the board, Ruby Drew, TACS was in a very good situation whereby the growth of the school required more leader-ship than a single position could cover. The board of directors developed a plan whereby three part-time directors were hired based on their skill sets and were paired with increased needs of the school.

The new director of work-shops and classes and senior di-rector is Julie McIntyre. McIntyre has served TACS as previous president of the board, chair of capital projects and co-chair of the workshop committee. She teaches courses in felting, metal work and lampworking. She is a licensed architect and has worked in that field for 33 years. Mc-Intyre has lived in Tryon for 10 years and also works for Brady-Trakas as an architect.

The new director of special events is Christine Mariotti. Mariotti has previously served on the board of directors as vice-president and has taught courses in Chinese brush painting and other forms of textile art includ-ing painting on silk. Mariotti holds a degree in art education and has taught in community colleges and privately for most of her career. She is author of a book “The Art of Silk Painting,” part of the Walter Foster series of art books. She moved to Tryon in 2008 and became involved in the arts community.

The new director of fundrais-ing and grant writing is Jacque-line Brown-Williams. Brown-Williams holds a B.A. in speech/drama, an MAT in humanities/education and a M.Ed. in guid-ance/counseling. She has served as a grants writer and project coordinator for KY education television, has served as execu-tive director of a large privately funded public organization and

had served several positions in academic institutions. Brown-Williams has lived in the area for 37 years and teaches part-time at Greenville Tech Charter High School.

In addition to the three new directors, TACS contracted with Bonnie Musselwhite in August to serve as bookkeeper.

Diana Jackson continues as a part-time administrator and Arlene Adams continues as a part-time administrative assis-tant. Jackson has served in this position since 2007. She and her

son, TJ have lived in Tryon for six years. Adams joined TACS as a receptionist during our transition weeks and is now an administra-tive assistant. Adams has been a resident of Polk County for 14 years.

TACS mission is to provide instruction in regional arts and crafts to citizens of Polk County and upstate South Carolina. Current offerings can be found at TACS website, www.tryon-artsandcrafts.com.
