Local camp owner Jim Bob Wilson is going the extra mile to teach his campers that setting goals, trying harder and giving back will make a difference in their lives.

In fact, he's going many extra miles – all the way from San Diego, CA, to Atlantic Beach, FL, on a bicyle. And he plans to do it in less than three weeks, with winter setting in and as he prepares to turn 60 years old.

Wilson has partnered with a non-profit group that pro-vides bikes to caregivers in third-world countries. Called Globalbike, the group is lo-cated in Spartanburg, SC.

The caregivers use the bikes provided by Globalbike to Jim Bob Wilson trains for his upcoming bike across the country to benefit Globalbike, which provides bikes

to medical and other caregivers in third-world countries. Wilson is the owner of Camp Wayfarer, a camp in Flat Rock, NC, whose campers often include Polk County children. (photo submitted)

Polk gets favorable auditFund balance up to 35.4 percentby Leah Justice

Polk County added another $731,543 to its savings last fiscal year to end with an unrestricted fund balance of $7,058,899 available for spending.

The Polk County Board of Com-missioners Monday reviewed the audit report for fiscal year 2009-2010, which

ended June 30. Dan Yelton of Gould Killian CPA Group, P.S., presented details of the audit Monday and the county officially accepted the report.

“The fund balance is higher and has been higher for the past five years than other peer counties,” Yelton told commissioners.

Yelton also said the county’s tax collection rate has been higher than the county’s peer counties throughout

reach families in outlying areas that otherwise would have to wait much longer to get medical or other care they need.

Wilson leaves from San Di-ego on Thanksgiving day and will hopefully arrive in Atlantic Beach, FL, by Dec. 12. There will be a celebration party on his ar-rival in Florida and then another in Spartanburg, SC, on Dec. 18.

Curt McPhail, director of Globalbike.org, said, “This Trek Across America by Jim Bob Wilson and his Camp Wayfarer family is the epitome of what Globalbike is all about. We are out there trying to help others by raising awareness. It is never too early to teach children that they can make a difference. Jim Bob’s campers will remember this and their contribution to his efforts. Becoming a part of something bigger than you can be life chang-ing. That is what Mr. Wilson is going to do for us and for others. We are incredibly thankful for his and Camp Wayfarer’s efforts.”

As the owner of a summer camp, Wilson has experience helping to mold youth of today.

“My wife Nancy and I work hard every summer to instill the values of mental, physical, spiritual, and social ideals. It is

very important to us that we use the moments we have while the campers are in our camp com-munity to teach life lessons and to help those beyond self. We hope they leave our family and return to their family enriched and enlightened ”

Wilson has partnered with his campers to raise both funds and awareness for Globalbike. Each camper is responsible for a specific day during Wilson's trek. They, not their parents, must sign the commitment card for that day. They are encouraged to follow Jim Bob’s trek and to send an uplifting ‘thought for the day’ e-mail on their assigned date and if possible, to sponsor Wilson by the mile.

The children are encouraged to do the giving, with a penny a mile the initial goal. So far the campers have already donated more than $1,000, and the as-signed donation dates haven’t started yet.

Wilson and the camp have set a goal of 50 bikes for Globalbike, at $150 per bike. It's a tough goal, Wilson said, but he feels certain that they will reach that by the end of his trek.

His more “global” hope is that this project will encourage other camps, schools and churches to do the same sort of thing to obtain more bikes for Globalbike.

the state for a number of years. Polk’s tax collection rate was 96.3 percent last year, with peer groups averaging around 95 percent over the past few years. Peer counties are counties in the state similar in size, or with populations less than 25,000.

Polk County collected $13,700,074 in taxes for fis-cal year 2009-2010 with a total of $14,224,791 billed and $524,717 uncollected as of June 30, 2010. Polk’s prior year tax collection rate was 96.9 per-cent, with $13,713,304 billed and $429,578 uncollected as of June 30, 2009, according to the audit.

The audit report this year included charts showing how Polk County compares to other counties of similar size. Polk’s fund balance is significantly higher this year at 35.4 percent of its general fund, compared to the peer group’s average of between 20 and 24 percent.

Polk County had one dip in its fund balance in the year ending June 30, 2009, after the county used its fund bal-ance to purchase Lake Adger for $1.6 million, but even then the county maintained a fund balance of approximately 25 percent.

Another chart included in the audit report showed Polk’s

outstanding debt over the last four years. Polk’s trend has a steady drop, from about $25 million owed in 2006 to be-tween 16 million and 17 million owed as of June 30, 2010. Polk decided on Monday to further decrease its debt by paying off an outstanding loan that funded the construction of the middle school, recreation complex and transfer station. (See article, pg. 8.)

The county ended last fiscal year with total expenditures of $20,352,199 from its gen-eral fund. The county ended $1,195,263 more revenues than expenditures.

On the negative side of the audit, Polk did receive two findings.

A federal award finding was given to the county for its Med-icaid program. Yelton said two

files in the auditor’s sample of the county’s Medicaid program proved to be incorrect, result-ing in two people not receiving benefits. The audit recommends additional staff training and possibly additional file reviews are needed to ensure required documentation is present in the file and is used to correctly compute the budget for eligibil-ity determinations.

The county agreed with the finding; officials said, according to the audit, “Additional staff training will occur to ensure that all staff members are aware of the required documentation and procedures.”

Another finding is incurred on an annual basis, according to Yelton, and is based on the fact that the auditors themselves prepare the annual financial statements, footnotes and other required disclosures.

“The external auditors can-not be considered to be part of

an entity’s internal control,” states the audit report. “There-fore, the auditor’s participation in the preparation of certain sections of the Comprehen-sive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) technically constitutes a weakness in [Polk County's] system of internal control.

“While the county does pre-pare monthly financial state-ments for internal purposes and is competent in tracking expen-ditures and fund balances, it is not logical at this time for the county to dedicate the resources required to perform all of the year-end financial reporting duties.”

Yelton did recommend that the county appoint an audit committee made up of county employees as well as com-munity members to help with financials and the annual audit. He said many other counties have an audit committee, which has proved to be successful.

Polk to pay off loan earlyPayoff will net county more than $362k savingsby Leah Justice

Polk County commissioners decided on Monday to pay off an outstanding loan that will save the county $362,513.

The decision is contingent on Polk being approved by the N.C. Local Government Commission (LGC) to secure up to $1.85 mil-lion in financing for a new depart-ment of social services (DSS) building.

The loan to be paid off was initially a $4 million loan from BB&T that funded the construction projects a few years ago for the middle school, recreation complex and transfer station. If the county continued to make regular loan payments, it would pay another $2,498,720. Paying the payoff amount of $2,136,207 now could save the county $362,513.

Polk County Manager Ryan Whitson told commissioners Mon-day that there are no penalties for paying off the loan early and he recommended the payoff for a couple of reasons.

Whitson said with recent audit report numbers, the county’s fund balance is getting too high. With uncertainties with the state budget, Whitson said it would be safer for the county to reduce its fund bal-ance in case the state decides to supplement its budget with local

funding. He said he has seen a similar

situation with Western Highlands, Polk’s mental health entity. He said the state told Western Highlands to use its fund balance instead of receiving state funding and he doesn’t want that to happen to Polk County. Whitson recommends the county maintain a 15 percent fund balance and Polk County’s was 35.4 percent as of June 30, 2010, according to the audit presented on Monday (see front page story).

Whitson also said it makes sense for Polk County to pay off the $4 million loan and finance the DSS building because of the state and federal reimbursements available for interest payments made for the building. The state and federal governments will reimburse certain costs for the new DSS building, which is being constructed off Wolverine Trail in Mill Spring, including about 61 percent of loan interest costs.

Whitson said the county will still have a fund balance of ap-proximately 24 percent if the loan is paid off. The state recommends that local governments have a mini-mum of eight percent of its general fund in reserves.

The loan will not be paid off until the county closes on the DSS loan.

Polk plans to take $1,957,013 from its fund balance and use the already budgeted loan payment for this year of $176,320 to pay off the loan.

The Lake Lanier boat landing, located in Third Basin, was dedicated on Sunday to Frank “Boat” Williams, a long-time Lake Lanier resident. A sign was erected identifying the landing as the Frank "Boat" Wiliams Landing. The Lake Lanier Civic Association (LLCA) recently purchased the boat landing from the Tom Gerfen family. The Gerfen family specified in the deed that the landing be named for Williams in honor of his long history on the lake. The LLCA agreed to name it after Williams and maintain a sign there in his honor. Pictured above (left to right) are Williams, who turns 104 years old next Wednesday, and LLCA’s Jerry Atkins and Jeff Corrigan. Below, Williams is shown beside the new landing sign. Corrigan is seeking stories about Williams for a memoir. Anyone who has information on Williams is urged to send it to [email protected]. (photo by Leah Justice)

This new home recently built at 940 Markham Road in Tryon was part of a Community Development Block Grant Scattered Housing Project throughout Polk County. Calvin Carson’s home was torn down recently and completely rebuilt. Five other homes in Polk County are scheduled for repairs through the grant. (photo by Leah Justice)

Home rebuilt on Markham Rd.by Leah Justice

Calvin Carson, whose home was demolished just a few months ago, moved into his new home on the same site this week.

Carson's home in Tryon was demolished and rebuilt through a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Scattered Housing Project.

The home, located at 940 Markham Road in Tryon, was rebuilt through the grant funds. Polk County was awarded $400,000 in 2008, of which $333,000 was to be used for rehabilitation and demolition of homes in the county.

The funds were awarded

specifically to be used to com-plete substantial housing repairs on five homes and to demolish and replace Carson's home on Markham Road, which was accomplished in just a few months.

Work is already scheduled to begin on the other five homes on the list for rehabilitation.

CDBG funds are provided to the state by the U.S. Depart-ment of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). They are administered at the state level by the N.C. Department of Commerce through the Divi-sion of Community Assistance and the Commerce Finance Center.

Recyling in Landrum has quadrupled in recent yearsby Leah Justice

Sanitation customers in Lan-drum who recycle have qua-drupled in the past four years.

Landrum City Council met last week with Jerry Searcy, who is with the town’s sanita-tion contractor, GDS. Searcy said the curbside recycling program has worked really

well, with participants up to 16.29 percent.

In 2006, Landrum only had four percent of residents who recycled. Through some cam-paigning, those numbers grew shortly after to about nine percent.

City council also discussed (Continued on page 13)

with Searcy past issues that have been worked out with GDS, such as the replacement of garbage carts. Searcy said GDS has replaced almost every old cart in town, which was probably the biggest com-plaint from customers. Searcy

says now when a cart disap-pears, GDS is being more proactive and having more new carts on hand to replace more quickly.

Other questions regarding recycling to Searcy were what items GDS accepts. Searcy said some customers have complained that their recycling was not picked up, but workers

have to leave items that are not recyclable, such as styrofoam.

The Landrum GDS program accepts plastics that are num-bered 1 through 7, according to Searcy. Those items are asked to be rinsed prior to being placed for recycling. The town has a brochure of what other items are recyclable, located at city hall.

Facebook adds to list of N.C. data centersFacebook joined a growing list

of companies creating a data center in North Carolina after announcing last week its plans for a $450 mil-lion center in Forest City.

Construction of the center, which will be designed to meet LEED gold standards, is expected to create about 250 construction jobs and about 35 to 45 full-time jobs once it is in operation. State officials say future construction phases are possible if business needs require expansion at the center.

North Carolina Governor Bev Perdue says the state worked with Facebook for about a year to make sure the company had the land, utilities and incentives needed to “make the project a success.” Per-due notes Facebook follows Apple, Google and IBM in selecting the Tarheel state for a data center.

The governor’s office also announced this week that Info-crossing will build a data center in Kings Mountain. Infocrossing, a subsidiary of Wipro Ltd., India’s third-largest software outsourcer, plans to invest $75 million in the

facility that will employ fewer than 20 full-time workers. Infocrossing manages high-volume computer operations for other companies.

Except for IBM, which is in the Triangle area, the companies picked sites less than 50 miles from Kings Mountain. Apple announced plans in 2009 to build a $1 bil-lion data center in Maiden and Google created a $600 million facility in Le-noir. Other companies that have created or announced plans for data centers in the state include EMC Corp, SAS Corp., and Fidel-ity Investments.

The governor’s office says com-panies are choosing the region be-cause of generous state tax breaks and a surplus of electric capacity left by a collapsing textile industry.

Facebook says it plans to em-ploy innovative cooling and power management technologies to make its facility one of the most energy efficient data centers in the country. Facebook plans to use technologies

it created to rely on fewer than half the computer power and energy consumption of a similar data center constructed just a few years ago.

“After a rigorous review of sites across the East Coast, we are pleased to locate our new data center in Rutherford County,” says

Tom Furlong, Director of Site Operations for Facebook. “The team we will

hire here will help us provide faster, more reliable and more robust ser-vice to people around the world who rely on Facebook to connect and share. We are grateful to the officials in Rutherford County and the State of North Carolina whose time, effort and commitment were instrumental in making this happen.”

The N.C. Department of Com-merce worked with N.C. Commu-nity Colleges, Rutherford County, the Town of Forest City and the N.C. Rural Economic Develop-

ment Center to bring Facebook to the state. Facebook can receive up to $11.4 million in incentives from Rutherford County if it meets investment targets. The company also is eligible to re-ceive an exemption for taxes on electricity and business property under a bill approved by the N.C. legislature last year. Legislators crafted the bill specifically to appeal to data companies.

“As the national press has in-dicated, North Carolina is helping to lead the nation out of the Great Recession,” said Lt. Governor Walter Dal-ton, a native of Rutherford County.

***Diplomats from 15 countries

are visiting the Triangle area today to study developments in clean energy and smart grid technology. Tour organizer Lynn Van Fleit said the group is only planning to visit the Triangle area this time, but may visit Silicon Valley on a later trip. Fleit says the Triangle Area has developed a reputation as a center for green energy innovation.

Australia, Austria, Bahrain, Belgium, Canada, EU Com-mission, France, India, Israel, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain, Switzerland and Thailand will be represented by the diplo-mats, who are liaisons in science, technology, energy, environment and trade. The group will be visit-ing RTI International, a nonprofit research organization in Research Triangle Park, and Cisco, a com-puter networking company active in smart-grid development.

***South Carolina lags behind the

nation for broadband Internet connections and use of informa-tion technology, according to the South Carolina 2010 Residential Technology Assessment.

Connect South Carolina sur-veyed 1,200 South Carolina residents to measure the state’s adoption of technology and the

availability of broadband service. According to the survey, 62 per-cent of adults subscribe to home broadband service, compared to 67 percent nationwide. The sur-vey also found that 42 percent of African Americans subscribe to broadband, well below the national average of 56 percent. Among rural households, only 46 percent have broadband service, compared to the national average of 62 percent.

The study found that mobile broadband service was utilized by only 29 percent of adults in South Carolina.

“This statewide survey on broadband is the first of its kind in South Carolina, and it shows

that a lot of w o r k n e e d s to be done to improve adop-tion and use of broadband and

information technology in the state,” said Brian Mefford, CEO of Connect South Carolina’s non-profit parent company, Connected Nation. “Expanding the use and adoption of broadband will benefit South Carolina’s economy, educa-tion, and health of its citizens, and this survey is an important step forward in building awareness of these benefits.”

***The North Carolina History

Center has opened in New Bern af-ter public officials and private sup-porters worked for about two de-cades to raise sufficient funds. The regional history museum, which is expected to draw about 200,000 visitors annually, is located on what had been a contaminated site next to the Tryon Palace. The Tryon Palace Commission decided years ago to buy the vacant lot, an abandoned boat yard, and then worked over the years to raise funds for the museum. Commis-sion chairman Bob Mattocks says the project raised more than $60 million, including 28 gifts over $100,000.

it will scale back plans to expand the city’s light rail system due to revenue shortfalls. The system says it is planning to cut $200 million from its budget to extend the Blue Line to University City, home to the UNC-Charlotte cam-pus. The length of the line and the number of stations may be reduced, says CATS. The cuts are a setback for the region’s 2030 transit plan, which called for rapid development of light-rail, commuter-rail and streetcars in Mecklenburg County. CATS says revenue from a special half-cent sales tax will be more than $1 billion short of proj-ects by 2030. The transit system must slow its spending growth from 1.3 percent to 0.3 percent annually. CATS plans to pursue grants and public-private partner-ships to continue moving forward with its plans for a Red Line to the Lake Norman area.

***The S.C. Chamber of Com-

merce announced the 25 fastest growing companies in the state. Wild Creations, a company in Myrtle Beach that produces a mini-aquarium that comes to life with African dwarf frogs, topped the list with 313 percent average growth. Thomas Glover Associ-ates Inc. of Inman was ninth on the list. Also making the list from the Upstate was JH Global Services Inc. of Greenville at fourth, SYS Constructors Inc. of Greenville at 13th, Human Technologies of Greenville at 15th, Heritage Healthcare Inc. of Greenville at 16th, Weir Capital Management of Simpsonville at 17th, Network Controls & Electric Inc. of Greenville at 21st and Cynergi Systems of Duncan at 24th.

***Immunologix Inc. of Charles-

ton, S.C. won a competitive award that was part of the federal health care reform law passed

last year. The biotechnology company, which produces fully human therapeutic antibodies, will receive $244,479 under the Therapeutic Discovery Project tax credit. The award was the maximum credit available under the $1 billion program. Immu-nologix Inc. uses explanted tonsil tissue from tonsillectomy pa-tients to transform naïve B-cells into fully human antibodies to guard against antigens, including cancer, viruses, bacteria, toxins and auto-immune diseases.

The tax credits to promote innovation in biotechnology are available to companies with

fewer than 250 employees and worth up to 50 percent of the c o m p a n y ’ s qualifying re-

search and development costs.***

Charlotte’s Goodwill Indus-tries will receive more than $1 million in cash and software from Microsoft for a program to help veterans transition back to civilian life. The “Operation In-dependence” grant will help fund a variety of services to assist local veterans and their families with skills training, job searches and stress management. Goodwill says the funds will help 100 vets and their families in the first year of the program, operated in part-nership with Central Piedmont Community College.

The program was conceived by Charlotte’s Goodwill Indus-tries, which is also working with Goodwill International to create a template for the program that can be used by affiliates across the country.

“This is a lot bigger than someone coming into Goodwill and using our computers to do a job search,” said Bo Hussey of Goodwill Industries of the Southern Piedmont. “This is about helping them with the entire transition from military life to civilian life, every step of the way. Charlotte has the second highest population of vets of any city in the state. These folks are here and they need help now."

sanTiago mariani


A seminarian from TryonSantiago Mariani,

who is studying at the St. Charles Borromeo Seminary in Philadel-phia, PA, is a famil-iar figure at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Tryon. He often assists with ser-vices there when he is home.

Mariani was born in Buenos Aires, Ar-gentina and lived there until he was 11 years old. In 1996 his family moved to the United States.

At a retreat during his college years, Mari-ani was asked whether he had ever considered studying for the priesthood. Before that, he said, he had never felt he had a calling for the priesthood.

After college, Mariani real-ized that the best place to dis-cern a priestly vocation was the seminary. He applied and was accepted.

But In 2005 Mariani trans-ferred to Wofford College in Spartanburg, SC, where he stud-

ied for three years, getting his de-gree in finance. He said Wofford was a great experience for him, and he was planning a future in business with a fellow Wofford Terrier.

However, he said the possibil-ity of entering the seminary and becoming a priest remained with his heart, and with the guidance

• Seminarian(ConTinueD From page 19)

of a spiritual director, Mariani chose to continue his Christian journey as a seminarian.

Mariani is currently studying pre-theology at the St. Charles Borromeo Seminary. It is a two year program designed to help college students to become well grounded in philosophy in prepa-ration for the four years of theo-logical studies.

Mariani's classes this semester include Biblical Greek, phi-losophy of man, metaphysics, faith and reason according to St. Thomas Aquinas, and late mod-ern philosophy.

Mariani starts each day at the seminary with communal morning prayer, which leads into Mass. In addition to pray-ing the Rosary, seminarians are encouraged to practice adoration for one hour before the Blessed Sacrament.

After Mass and breakfast, seminarians take their study classes, usually two or three classes in the morning. The rest of the day is spent on studying, prayer and activities with other seminarians.

In addition to the regular study courses each seminarian is assigned to a house job throughout the week. They also serve an apostolate on Thursdays, which is spent in ser-vice at a nearby organization.

"This year I have been as-signed to a homebound shelter for my apostolate, and I strive to keep the petitions there before me as I become a more authentic follower of Jesus Christ. I pray to recognize God's presence in all men, especially the poor and those who mourn."

Mariani enjoys reading books on Our Lord and the Blessed Mother of God, playing chess, racquet ball with friends and en-joying good Pixar movies.

Mariani says he has a deep appreciation for the liturgical heritage of the Church's Latin Rite, including both older and newer expressions of the faith that are exercised under ecclesi-astical authority.

"It is a blessing to have re-course to Gregorian chant as a way to elevate one's heart and mind to God."

Most of all, Mariani says he values loving Christ and shar-ing His love with others through Mary, His mother.

The Stories of Green River Cove

by Beauford Arledge

Grandma Bishop’s houseWorking for the past nine

years, Beauford Arledge, 84, gathered his memories into a book that only he could write, “The Sto-ries of Green River Cove.” With permission, the Tryon Daily Bul-letin is sharing excerpts from the book with our readers. If you would like to purchase a copy of “Sto-ries of Green River Cove” and read the entire book for yourself, call Arledge’s daughter, Susan Howell at 828-894-3724 to order a copy.

Grandma’s house was a spe-cial place to go. She was small in stature and walked a little stoop shouldered, but I don’t remem-ber her walking with a stick.

She was a nice kind-spoken person, and she had time to talk when I was around. She was busy all the time doing her work. She worked in her flowers – most of them were on

the back side of the house away from the road, between the spring and the k i t chen door. It was a small garden

with different kinds of flowers. In the spring house she would set some flower pots in the winter time. The spring is where they got their water, dipping it up into a bucket, carrying it to the house, and setting it on the

shelf beside the wash pan. The dipper was hung on the wall; everyone used the same dip-per. There was a box in the spring drain to keep the milk and butter in.

Grandma workingYou could find Grandma

working in the garden which had a fence around it, reaching from the house to the creek. Grape vines grew along the fence, and fox grape along the creek bank. She would have strawberries in the garden in the spring time. An apple orchid grew there, just across the road on the front side. In October or late fall you, would find sliced and peeled apples lying out on a screen for the sun to dry. After drying, she would put them in a flour sack, tie them up and hang them in some dry place. In the winter time she was ready to fry some dried apples or make pies – were they good!

Barn, creek, and June apple tree

The barn (or stables for the cows and horses) was across the creek from the house. I can hear Grandma now as she would sneeze several times as she went along to the barn. She must have had problems with hay fever. Just before you reached the foot log crossing the creek there was a June apple tree. It was an early apple, and we looked forward to the time they would be ripe. Many times I have climbed this tree and eaten apples.

Walnut tree, check pins, storage room in a hill

A big walnut tree stood just above the spring and it gave walnuts to eat. I can remember a time when I was visiting there and was helping crack walnuts to make a cake, and a bad storm came up. I was standing in the kitchen door when a flash of lightning and a boom came at the same time. The lightning hit

the walnut tree, leaving a wide gash from top to bottom and killing it. Just across the creek, along big Hungry Road, check pin bushes grew above the road.

We looked for-ward in the fall to eating and playing games with them.

Across the creek a room had been dug

in the side of hill and a door installed so the room could be closed. This is where they kept their Irish potatoes and some can goods.

Lots of times when we were growing up we would play in the creek. Grandpa would go to the creek and wash his hands and face early in the morning.

Local farmer’s market season ends

Charlene Searcy of Sunny View vends local produce and specialty items from “Charlene’s Garden” at the Columbus Farmer’s Market. The last market for the season will be held this Saturday from 8 to 11:30 a.m. in front of the Columbus Courthouse. (photo submitted)

Whether you have been a weekly patron of the Columbus Saturday Farmers Market or an occasional customer you should mark your calendar for the last market this Saturday, November 20.

The markets have proved to be a destination place on Saturday mornings where the community has a chance to meet and visit with local farmers and buy pro-duce, cheese, eggs, milk, crafts, jams and jellies and much more. The market is nostalgic for many folks who remember when it was common to buy or trade directly with a farmer or neighbor whose goods are freshly harvested and taste all the better for it.

As people are becoming more vocal about wanting access to good tasting, high quality local goods, farmers markets are in-creasingly becoming a popular venue to buy weekly groceries.

There have been more than 100 vendors at the four different farmers markets in Polk County (Tryon, Saluda, Columbus, and Green Creek), and in the busiest summer months there have been 50 vendors at the Columbus market alone.

The dollars spent at these mar-kets strengthen Polk County’s local economy and ensure that farmers get a fair profit for their risk and labor, sustaining the

chances they can continue to bring their goods back to market in the future.

At this Saturday’s market, held from 8 to 11:30 a.m. in front of the Columbus courthouse, expect to still find plenty of produce as well as crafts. There will be fall salad greens, eggs, sweet potatoes, cheeses, milk, baked goods, apples, wood crafts, fabric crafts, house and yard plants, jams and jellies. Come see “Lovey Dovey,” the ‘friendliest rooster in the world,’ and watch it scratch around or offer customers a free “hug.”

Many vendors have said that they welcome the opportunity to continue to sell to the public throughout the winter, so feel free to ask for the amount of food you would like to order weekly or monthly and agree upon a pickup location.

If you can’t make this Satur-day’s final market, Columbus Farmer’s Market vendors will be meeting at the Mill Spring Agricultural Center on Saturday, December 4 from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. as part of a holiday shopping bazaar.

Organizers say they are already looking forward to next spring and planning new additions to the markets like acoustic music and cooking demonstrations.

Kanipe speaks to Columbus LionsColumbus Town Manager Jona-

than Kanipe spoke at a recent meet-ing of the Columbus Lions Club. Kanipe has worked with Columbus for the past three months, having previously been town manager of Catawba, NC, for four years.

He completed his undergraduate degree at University of North Caro-lina and then did his graduate work at Appalachian State University. He is originally from Marion, NC, and told the Lions he is happy to be in Columbus where he can see the mountains again.

Kanipe spoke of the various projects currently in progress in Co-lumbus. On the day of the meeting, the town had signed the papers to complete the extension of Veterans Park so that it now includes the length of the entire block. A second project, being performed by the state, is the installation of curbs and gutters on Mill Street from Blanton Street to Park Street, a sidewalk on the south side of the street, and the addition of street lights. This work is scheduled to be completed by December 1.

Kanipe told the members he feels fortunate to be working with a great town council and such dedicated and competent staff. In addition to the Columbus Town Hall staff, he stated that he is very impressed by the highly qualified and gifted

individuals who make up the Co-lumbus Police and Public Works departments.

During the question and answer period that followed Kanipe’s talk, topics included the Foster Creek De-velopment, the status of Chocolate Drop, and plans to meet future water demands. Even though Kanipe has been in Columbus only a short time, Lions Club members said he im-pressed them with his knowledge on many varied topics. The Columbus Lions meet on the first and third Thursdays at Calvert’s Kitchen in Columbus. They encourage anyone interested in membership to visit them. For information, call Fran Goodwin at 828-894-2505.

Thanksgiving feast at First Baptist Landrum on Thanksgiving Day

FirsT BapTisT ChurCh lanDrum

The Thanksgiving Feast at First Baptist Landrum began in 1995 with a vision from then pastor Reverend Jerry Long. The vision was to provide a great meal for the community including not only those in need, but those in need of a family to join them in their meal.

The first year 173 meals were served and it has grown every year to 530 total meals in 2009. Nearly 150 volunteers made this possible. The meals are served at the church, delivered, or picked up for take-out. Ashley Butler is the chief organizer for this year’s meal and she states that “the goal for 2010 is 650 meals.”

The 30+ turkeys are bought by the church and cooked by volunteers in their homes as are the desserts. The remainder of the meal including dressing, green beans and sweet potatoes is prepared at the church.

“We want to provide a qual-ity meal for anyone that would like to attend and be a part of our family for the day. With the state of our economy, we know there are people that may need the meal, but please know that we do not want you spend your Thanksgiving alone. So if com-pany is your need, join us.”

This year’s feast is from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thanksgiving

Day. Anyone needing a meal delivered can call the church office at 864-457-4118 on or be-fore Wednesday, November 24. “God tells us that we are here to serve and on Thanksgiving Day serving is what we will do.”

Rock Garden Society presents ‘Rock Gardening 101’ November 20

The Southern Appalachian Chapter of the North American Rock Garden Society presents “Rock Gardening 101” by Ev Whittemore at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, November 20, at the Flat Rock Village Hall, located at 110 Village Center Dr. (op-posite Flat Rock Playhouse).

Ev Whittemore has been a dedicated rock gardener for more years than she cares to admit. She says this madness began many years ago when she spotted a gorgeous blue gentian in a nursery in the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts. Blue being her favorite color, this unfortunate plant found itself in the vehicle heading to Whit-temore’s garden, where it was planted and promptly died.

Not wanting to be known as an unskilled gardener, she joined the Connecticut and New England Chapters of the North American Rock Garden Society.

wWhittemore at tended meetings faithfully, listened carefully and soon picked up enough knowledge to begin to understand alpines and rock gardening plants demanded certain conditions to survive. Nevertheless, her first rock garden was appalling, with

rocks arranged cemetery style instead of in groups as in na-ture. She said there was a lot to learn and the only way to go was up. After years of studying and building five rock gardens in Massachusetts and North Carolina, her work showed much improvement.

Whittemore has had articles on rock gardening published in New Zealand, Scotland, Canada and the United States. She has lectured in North Carolina, New York, Massachusetts, Connecti-cut and New Jersey. She has been seed exchange director, chaired the national convention, been a board of director and won an award from the North American Rock Garden Soci-ety. Approximately 17 years ago she established the South-ern Appalachian Chapter.

Whittemore will speak on rock gardening instructing how to construct a rock garden and avoid her mistakes.

Sign-in and coffee will be held at 10 a.m. A short business meeting will precede Whit-temore’s presentation at 10:30 a.m.

For further information, contact Mary Lou Kemp at 828-698-7868.

Letter to the Editor

My bet is you will be looking at nothing different in 2012To the Editor:

I have been putting much thought to the mid-term elections and what they might mean. As I look at the results across the coun-try, it is clear that the American people want our elected officials to respond to our needs, and not the needs of corporations, special interest groups or specific lobbying organizations.

The Republicans did not get a mandate from the people to be the sole savior of the country. If they had, then not only the House, but the Senate as well would be theirs. What the public did was say, “do the business of the country, find common ground, and get her done.”

The day after the election the President seemed to understand he had been chastised by the people, and reached out to Republicans, indicating a willingness to find the common ground. Congressman Banner, the new speaker of the House, indicated his willingness as well. Then within a day the tone changed; it became about 2012 and the Presidential election. The Re-

publicans drove a wedge between the two sides.

So here is what I would ask those of you who really desire to get the county’s business done. Make a list of the promises made by the Tea Party/Republicans. It is not a long list but an important one.

1) Lower taxes on all Ameri-cans. 2) Create new jobs and put people back to work (unemploy-ment is at 9.5 percent) even though 155,000 new jobs were created last month. 3) Begin to reduce the deficit, in order to increase the value of the dollar. 4) Either repeal health care, and/or cut out the parts that they, and supposedly the people are unhappy with. 5) Do away with cer-tain entitlements and government programs, employing too many people to do too little work, thus cutting costs.

There are a few more but those should be sufficient to check to see if they have accomplished their goals.

I would ask you to take stock along about March, 2012. If they have done their job as announced, I will be the first to stand up and say, “great job,” we need all of you in Washington. If not, then you as voters need to do again, as you did this time and vote the bums out. My bet is, sadly, that you will be look-ing at nothing different in 2012. I really hope I’m wrong.

– David Bivens


Appreciate Polk’s support of food pantryTo the Editor:

As the holiday season approach-es, I’m once again reminded how generous the folks in this area are. Donations to Thermal Belt Outreach Ministry are rolling in and that enables us to distribute even more food to the needy.

Polk County Middle School just finished a food drive in which they collected over 2,000 items of food. There are 7 other food drives going on now in Polk County and I anticipate even more as the holidays get closer.

Many individuals have been very helpful to TBOM this year. (Way too many to list here). One particular individual has goneabove and beyond in assistance. The Director of Agriculture Economic Development, Lynn Sprague, has contributed much needed shelving to our Pantry, allowed us the use of a large room at the Agriculture Center for our Yard Sale and helped us in many other ways. By the way, if you haven’t been out to the Ag. Center, it’s worth a visit. The reno-vations that Lynn is doing out there will be a Polk County treasure for decades to come. We appreciate Polk County’s generous support of the Food Pantry.

Sunny View Elementary receives $750 grant from ExxonMobil

Sunny View Elementary School has received a $750 grant from the ExxonMobil Educational Alliance program to support the school’s science lab. The school will use the money to update science equip-ment and supplies.

Barbara Gilbert, owner of McGuinn’s Store and Exxon in Sunny View, worked with school officials to secure the grant, which is one of 2,400 available to schools across the country served by Exxon or Mobil stations. The grants were made possible by funding from the ExxonMobil Corporation.

“Sunny View School works hard to make learning interesting and fun,” said Gilbert. “As an Exxon retailer, I am proud to help the young people of the Sunny

View community.”The ExxonMobil Educational

Alliance program is designed to provide Exxon and Mobil retail-ers with an opportunity to invest in the future of their communities through educational grants to neighborhood schools. Exxon-Mobil believes that, as members of the community, local retailers are best qualified to work with local educators to help identify schools and programs most in need of support. McGuinn’s Store and Exxon met stringent eligibility criteria before applying for and be-ing awarded this grant, including having a commitment to provide a superior buying experience for customers.

Green Creek Hounds Halloween Hunter Pace resultsby boots Plyler & Jan Smith

A ghoul greets you on the road, a witch waves you in at the gate and a cowboy directs you to a parking spot. Are you at the latest Hollywood scary movie? No, it’s the annual Green Creek Hounds Halloween Hunter Pace, held Sunday, October 24! Jennifer and Roger Smith allowed the Hallow-een critters to share enjoyment of their land, and Kathy Rondell and Pat Hale, along with their crew of workers and volunteers, were the organizers.

Every year the Green Creek Hounds crew comes up with one of the most highly anticipated events and they never disappoint. The trail this year meandered through the White Oak Creek Fixture. The Trail Rider course was quite a bit shorter than the Field Hunter one this year, but it still contained several good jumps, two water crossings and a lot of varied terrain.

Except for the very beginning of the path which was graveled, the trail was very forgiving to un-shod horses and there were many opportunities for a good canter or a side by side trot. The trail was mostly wooded which made a perfect backdrop to the ghosts, spi-ders, goblins, witches and various other beasties that would appear as the innocent riders proceeded on their way.

The decorations were provided by Baiba Bourbeau, Arthur Bour-beau and Beatrice Lamb and the poetic directional notices (similar to Burma Shave signs) were cre-ated by Christi Fowler. No one was injured by the creatures of the night, but one hapless horse was attacked by a falling Dracula. At least there were a few super heroes on hand to save the day.

The Field Hunter route fol-lowed the Trail Rider path but took many detours to add jumps as well as mileage.

The Halloween theme con-tinued in the food, especially the desserts, with spider cupcakes and pumpkin cookies among other creepy delights.

Costumed riders are a big part of this hunter pace and there were many vying for the prizes this

Tryon Arts and Crafts hosts open house Saturday, November 20

Tryon Arts and Crafts will host an interactive open house on Saturday, November 20 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. All seven studios at the facility will offer demonstra-tions and many will be open for exploration.

This family-friendly day will offer free crafts for children, holiday shopping in the gift shop, hands-on demonstrations, and a chance to learn more about the classes and workshops offered. Members of the board of direc-tors, staff and volunteers will be available at registration tables in the lecture area to answer ques-tions about the organization, the facility, events and future classes and weekend workshops. This day will be an opportunity to try your hand at a new craft and explore an experience in a new medium.

Tryon Arts and Crafts is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide creative opportunities for everyone through education, instruction, and expression of heritage and contemporary arts and crafts in a friendly, stimulating and enriching environment. During the open house, you will have the chance to see the gallery, gift shop and to tour seven profes-sionally equipped studios.

The gallery at Tryon Arts and Crafts hosts a variety of exhibits each year. Shows are typically from regional artists in a wide range of styles and media. The Heritage Gallery offers guests the opportunity to view historical arts and crafts artifacts on loan from the community. The gift shop adjoins the gallery and contains unique items hand crafted by lo-cal artisans.

Experienced potters will be at work in the pottery studio to demonstrate techniques and methods for creating projects in clay. Demonstrations will be done using the potter’s wheel and hand-building techniques.

When you leave the pottery

studio, come by the wood studio to see some of the pieces created by the wood turners, observe them working, or take a turn on the lathe yourself.

Next, visit the fiber arts studio and watch weavers at work while learning how colors and designs make each piece unique. After the demonstration, sit at a loom “press the treadles” and “throw the shuttle” as you enjoy this age old art form.

There will also be opportuni-ties to view artists in our jewelry and silversmithing studio. These may include lampworking and wire-wrapping demonstrations.

The last classroom inside the main building is the multi-media studio. This room provides a place to explore mediums such as stained glass, fused glass, silk painting and copper enameling. Guests will see students at work with colors and patterns in these areas of craft.

There are two additional stu-dios outside the main building – the lapidary studio and the blacksmith’s forge. In the lapi-dary studio, students learn how to cut and polish rocks to be used in jewelry, belt buckles or artwork. During the open house, visitors will have the opportunity to hear about the process of choosing, cutting and polishing a semi-

precious stone and even try their hand at polishing one. Visitors will also be able to observe sev-eral blacksmiths demonstrating their talents at the forge and will even offer guests a chance to hammer a piece of red hot steel.

The event is free and open to the public. Some activities may require a small fee for take home projects and donations are always welcome. In addition, Tryon Arts and Crafts is once again collect-ing non-perishable food items for Thermal Belt Outreach. Bring a canned or boxed food item to the open house. Come explore the facility Saturday, November 20 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with Tryon Arts and Crafts, located at 373 Harmon Field Road in Tryon.

Diet & Exercise by David Crocker

There are more than 200 bones in the human body. The main func-tion of the skeleton is to add struc-ture to the body, protect organs, and enable the body, with the help of the attached muscles, to move.

Bones, do however, play a role in several other bodily func-tions. The formation of blood cells takes place in the marrow within certain bones. Bones also act as a storehouse for minerals, especially phosphorus and calcium. About 98 percent of the body’s calcium is stored in its bones. Every cell in the body requires small amounts of calcium to function properly. When blood calcium levels fall, bones then release calcium that has been stored.

The body uses intricate mechanisms to keep calcium l e v e l s b a l -anced. When blood levels of calcium are low, the parathyroid glands secrete parathormone. This activates bone cells called osteoclastsins in order to break down bone to release the calcium that’s needed by the body. This also triggers other hormones that counteract mineral loss in these bones to keep them strong during this process. When blood calcium levels get too high, the thyroid gland secretes the hormone cal-citonin, which blocks the actions of parathormone.

There are several factors that affect both calcium absorption and loss. These include gender, weight, ethnic background, heredity, dis-ease factors, and activity levels.

There are two areas of strengthening bone we need to explore. These are diet and ex-ercise. When taking a calcium supplement, it’s not just impor-tant how much you take, but how you take it. I recommend healthy individuals take between 1200-1500 mg. of calcium a day. The two main forms of calcium readily available are calcium car-bonate and calcium citrate. Both are well absorbed, but need to be taken differently. Calcium carbon-ate needs to be taken with food for

proper absorption where as cal-cium citrate needs to be taken on an empty stomach. Be sure to take one or the other. Not both. Your total calcium intake per day should be divided and taken at two differ-ent times. Also, do not take your calcium within an hour of taking vitamin C. Calcium is a base and vitamin C is acidic. If they are both in the stomach at the same time, they will cancel each other out. When it comes to calcium fortified orange juices, the form of calcium used is calcium hydroxide, which is not affected as much by the vitamin C in the juice. You also, need vitamin D and magnesium for calcium absorption, so I rec-ommend a well balanced vitamin/

mineral supple-ment (we’ll talk more about that later).

Proper ex-ercise is also crucial for bone strength and health. Weight train-ing is excellent for this. Skeletal muscles have something called an origin and an insertion. The origin point of the muscle is attached to the immovable bone. The inser-tion point of the muscle is attached on the other end to the movable bone. When you lift weights properly, the bones between the origin and insertion are stressed. The brain senses this and signals the body to send calcium to harden these bones. With proper strategy you can make real progress at any age, but make sure you get instruction from someone who is knowledgeable and experienced. Get your doctor, trainer, and nutritionist involved. Take care of your bones and they’ll really support you.

David Crocker of Landrum has served as strength director of the Spartanburg Y.M.C.A., strength coach, S.C. state cham-pion girls gymnastic team, USC-Spartanburg baseball team, and Converse college equestrian team. He taught four semesters at USC-Union. David is also a regu-lar guest of the Pam Stone Show. David also served as lead trainer to L.H.Fields Modeling Agency.

Humane Society Special Cases

leonard rizzo

I’m quietly sitting in my favorite chair with a book in my lap and a pen and pad on the table beside me. Part of me is reading, part of me is pray-ing, as I occasionally jot down a thought or two that comes to mind.

I’m currently juggling too many dogs and I’m having problems following their prog-ress and placing them. My funds are low but a fundraiser is coming up and I’ll be all right for a while. Things always work out because I have so many wonderful people assisting me, but at the moment my lower back is acting up again and I’m feeling sorry for myself.

The phone rings and I send a silent prayer, “Please let it be for Elaine.”

M y w i f e brings me the phone , “ I t ’s Judy Davis – she needs to speak with you.”

Judy is a straightforward, no nonsense person that I hold in high esteem. She knows and loves animals and would not be calling me with something frivolous.

“Hi, Judy, dear, what can I do for you?”

She tells me of a little female pit bull that has been roaming near her property; she crawled under barbed wire and scratched her head and backside.

“The Humane Society is full and I can’t find her owner,” she went on.

“Is she all right?” I ask.“She’s beautiful, Lennie,

and so sweet but she has some sort of rash on her underside. I can’t afford her right now – can you help?”

“Take her down to Landrum vet in the morning and tell them to bill Lennie’s fund. I’ll call and confirm it and stop by to see her tomorrow after work.”

“Thanks, Lennie, for this and

a lesson learnedall you do.”

“One more thing, dear. I’m overloaded at the moment – I’ll see to all her needs but I’m go-ing to leave her in your name. Please help in any way you can, especially in finding her a home.”

Elaine takes the phone with a big smile on her face.

“What’s so funny?” I ask. “Nothing,” she replies, walk-

ing away, shaking her head. This makes me smile – my dear wife knows me better than I know myself.

The next day after work I head up to Dogwood Farms to check on Cosmo, Caruso and Falcon, three big beauties being cared for there. Josh is a valued lifeline who does wonders with these animals.

I next head over to Lan-drum vet to look in on Tiny, who is now be-ing trained by

Kayla Parrish and Leo, one of my heartworm kids who’s being held until room opens up back at F.H.S.

After checking these two I head towards the pit bull Judy brought in earlier. I’m a bit weary and my heart isn’t in it. I’ve a few more stops to make and then I want to head home for a shower and a nap.

Dr. Raines tells me she has hookworm and they believe the rash is an allergy. Both she and Elaine, her staff leader, fol-low me to her cage. I view this beautiful little girl who is all white with brown patches. She looks up at me with soulful eyes and her tail thumping. I open the cage and sit in with her as Elaine and Donna look on.

“How far do you want us to go with her?” Elaine asks.

“Give her whatever she needs,” I reply, knowing these two ladies will do just that and keep my fees as low as pos-

sible. I pull a leash from my

pocket and take her outside for a walk. Except for stopping to relieve herself, she walks glued to my leg. I bring her inside and sit down, intending to give her some love and assurance. She proceeds to lay her head in my lap and looks up at me with all the hope, love and trust she could muster. Immediately all the weariness and doubt wash away from me and the flood gates open as tears fall uncon-trollably down my cheeks.

“I get the message, Lord,” I pray. “Who am I to look at any-one of Your beautiful creatures and think it’s just another dog that I may or may not have time for. Where would we be if You treated us in such a manner? Please forgive me, Lord, I have faith that You’ll help me find a way as You always do.”

This sweet girl is approxi-mately one year old and they have named her Trixie, though I prefer Patches. On second thought I believe I know who sent her to me and why – per-haps the name Angel is more appropriate.

Thanks for listening.

Trixie (phoTo suBmiTTeD)

Local equestrian history abounds at FENCE Barn Tour

Hulinndalur Farm’s main barn. (photo submitted)

This year’s FENCE Holiday Barn Tour on Saturday, November 27, presented by Carolina Storage Solutions, will feature several local stables that figure in the Foothills’ long history of horse sport.

Among the seven barns on the tour this year is Long Shadows Farm, owned by Michael and Helen Atkins. Long Shadows in Campobello, the former training barn for three-day eventer Michael Pollard, occupies the site of the Blackwell farm, once 500 acres in size and a well-known stop on the carriage and cattle trail taking livestock to market.

For many years Blackwell ran a country store at the family’s homestead where travelers could stop along the way to pick up sup-plies. Stonework from the original Blackwell home is incorporated into the present main house, while sweeping views of the Foothills and the Pacolet River Valley can be enjoyed from Long Shadows’ 14-stall barn. Visitors to Long Shadows during the barn tour will enjoy a demonstration of dressage and cross-country riding.

Also on the tour this year is Ter-ra Cotta Farm in Mill Spring, whose farmhouse with a view of White Oak Mountain rests on a foundation dating from the mid-19th century. Terra Cotta’s shed row barn, built in the early part of the last century with many subsequent additions, is a typical Tryon-area hunt box and is clad with wood siding cut from timber on the property.

Many local equestrians will remember Mollywood, a prominent center for horse sport for many years. Now renamed HulinnDalur and owned by Sara Lyter and Larry Greenspon, the farm has been un-dergoing restoration to house the owners’ Icelandic horses, a hardy and ancient breed purebred since the tenth century, famous for their endurance, double-sided manes and long tails. Many of Mollywood’s original structures have been preserved, including the original 10-stall barn, now joined by a new 200-foot-long covered arena.

Also on this year’s tour is Born Free Farm, which occupies the site of the stables for the former Fairview Farms, an important train-ing center for race horses during the last half of the 20th century. It was managed for many years by Tony Wallace, whose former office now serves as the main barn’s tack room and lounge. Many of Fairview Farm’s most famous race horses, hunters and show horses are buried on the hill behind the main barn.

Completing this year’s self-guided barn tour are Spiegel Farm in Campbello; Ring Farm in Mill Spring; and Still Creek Farm in Co-lumbus, where visitors can observe a demonstration of aquatic therapy for injured horses. Lunch will be available for purchase during the tour. Tickets can be ordered online at www.fence.org or by calling 828-859-9021; they are also available at a number of local merchants.

Saluda dancer performs in Asheville Ballet’s ‘The Nutcracker’

Kimzey Sitton, an 11-year-old dancer from Saluda, will be performing in Asheville Ballet’s “The Nutcracker” December 9 through 12. She will dance the roles of party child, soldier, angel and Arabian.

Sitton is an honor roll student at Polk County Middle School and is in her 10th year of bal-let. Although this is her first “Nutcracker” performance with Asheville Ballet, she comes with previous experience, having per-formed in “The Nutcracker” for two years with ORCBA, located in Oak Ridge, TN, as well as performances in “Cinderella” and “Peter and the Wolf.” She also performed in “The Nutcracker” with the Chattanooga Ballet in Chattanooga, TN, and appeared in an annual performance of “Under the Sea” and “Sleeping Beauty” with Van Meter School of Dance/The Appalachian Ballet in Maryville, TN.

Sitton’s experience comes from the former Merle’s Dance Place in East Flat Rock, Artistic Dance Unlimited in Maryville, TN, and Kathy’s School of Dance in Chat-tanooga, TN. She has also studied ballet under Amy Moore Morton at Van Meter School of Dance/The Appalachian Ballet in Maryville, TN and under Dance Master Frank Hay at The Chattanooga Ballet in Chattanooga, TN.

Sitton currently dances under the direction of Sonya Monts at The Dancers Extension, LLC in Saluda, where she is also an assistant teacher. Sitton has experience in tap, jazz, ballet, pre-pointe, contemporary and lyrical.

In addition to dancing, Sit-ton is a member of the Polk County Middle School Band and has participated in gymnastics, cheerleading, Girl Scouts and 4-H. She has also been a mem-

ber of the Foothills Elementary School chorus group and has been selected as a member of “America’s Who’s Who Among Elementary Students.” Sitton is a member of Bible Baptist Church in Maryville, TN, and attends Mountain View Baptist Church in Hendersonville.

The Asheville Ballet company will host its annual Nutcracker Tea on Sunday, November 28 from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. in the First Baptist Church of Asheville Atrium. Proceeds will benefit the Asheville Ballet Scholarship program. Come meet Clara, the Nutcracker, and all the magical characters from this traditional holiday ballet. For information call organizer Kim Engel at 828-713-9923.

As part of its 51st season per-forming for Western North Caro-lina audiences, The Asheville Ballet performs “The Nutcrack-er” at Diana Wortham Theatre, December 10 and 11 at 7:30 p.m. and December 11 and 12 at 2:30 p.m., with three daytime school shows on December 9. For reservations call the box office at 828-257-4530. For group rates and school shows call Ann Dunn, director, at 828-258-1028.

for the Upstairs, first showed me around the 32-year-old non-profit contemporary art gallery located just down the street from the Bulletin. This particular night the exhibit was art works in glass, with many of the pieces produced by leading Southeastern artists.

The historic old theatre has a definite charm and that small town feel that welcomes you in with open arms. It was the perfect setting for some local entertainment. First up was The StereoFidelics – Chris Padgett and Melissa McGinley. With a high energy intensity and quick pace, this alternative rock band was a real crowd pleaser.

They were followed by Wishgrove, a rock band from the mountains of North Caro-lina. The group writes, records and performs unique original music. Rich Nelson is on lead vocals, guitar and keyboards, Mark McCullough is on bass and back-up vocals and Tony Bell plays drums. Toe-tapping, head-bobbing music that I per-sonally enjoyed very much.

Thanks to all for a wonder-ful week.

Betty Ramsey is the pub-lisher of the Tryon Daily Bulle-tin. Her email address is [email protected].

My first week here in Try-on I was contacted by Marc Brady, the general manager of the Tryon Country Club, about the annual Octogenarian Golf Tournament. It seems the Tryon Daily Bulletin had sponsored the tournament in the past and Marc wanted to know if we were going to keep up the tradition. He said the tournament was open to all men and women, members and nonmembers, who had at-tained the age of at least 80. It sounded like a great idea, and far be it from me to change the tradition.

After a few delays due to weather, the tournament was held. It was a very cool (cold) morning, the kind that makes you want to roll over and pull the covers over your head and go back to sleep until the sun comes out in full force and heats up the place. But the games must go on, and these men and Mrs. Barbara Man-ning braved the weather and came out to play. Of course, there was the usual good-natured bantering and ribbing at the end, and a great time was had by all. Thanks to Marc Brady and Dee O’Brien, the Tryon Country Club manager, for organizing and making this event possible.

On a recent Sunday night I had the pleasure of attending a benefit concert for the Upstairs Artspace at the Tryon Theatre. Carol Newton, a board member

Composting forum held Nov. 30Following the continuing suc-

cess of the Polk County Mobile Re-cycling Program, the Polk County Recycling Advisory Board has been studying additional ways to divert materials from ending up in landfills.

Realizing that organic materi-als (food waste, grass clippings, leaves, brush and limbs) account for an average of 60 percent of household waste and 75 percent of solid waste generated by supermar-kets, schools, restaurants, and per-sonal care facilities, the recycling advisory board has shifted its focus to compost.

As a means to help generate ideas and interest, and to educate the recycling board and the general public, a composting forum is be-ing held at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 30, at the Polk County Campus of Isothermal Community College in Columbus.

Compost is the product result-ing from the controlled biological decomposition of organic material to the point that it is beneficial to plant growth. The benefits of diverting organic waste from landfills to compost are numerous. Not only does the effort extend

landfill life, among other things limiting organic waste in landfills reduces the production of meth-ane, a greenhouse gas. Of course the end product is black gold for soil productivity, and can be used for home gardens and farms as soil amendment, top dressing, or compost tea. In fact, compost is more effective than synthetic fer-tilizers in building healthy soils! The beauty of composting is that anyone can compost at any scale, from large commercial and farm operations to backyard tumblers and basement worm bins.

The featured speaker for the composting forum will be Brian Rosa, organic recycling specialist for NCDENR, widely considered the region’s foremost authority on composting and vermiculture (see www.p2pays.org/compost). Rosa will discuss composting techniques for households as well as larger scale operations.

All are welcome to come learn and discuss the potential ways for Polk County and its citizens to further reduce landfill waste, and in the process, keep growing greener.

Time for final feeding for fescue lawnsMany homeowners do not

realize that the third and final feeding for their cool season lawn is mid-November. Cool season grasses include Tall Fes-cue and Kentucky Bluegrass. Nearly all lawns in Polk County are seeded with Tall Fescue and some are a combination of fescue and bluegrass.

The general recommenda-tion is to add one pound of nitrogen for every 1,000 square feet of turfgrass. If you plan to use a balanced fertilizer such as 10-10-10, you should apply 10 pounds for every 1,000 square feet. If you previously applied a special slow release “turf type” fertilizer in September, you may be able to skip this third feeding.

When spreading fertilizer to your turf, make certain the

grasses are not wet with rain or dew. The foliage will be burned if applied to a wet lawn. In some instances the specialty “weed and feed” fertilizers that contain a granular herbicide will recommend an application on the wet lawn.

Don’t forget that turfgrasses prefer a soil pH of 6.5 while the native soil pH is normally around 4.5. In order to increase the soil pH you would need to add lime to your lawn area. To determine the current pH level of your soil, you should send a soil sample to the N.C. Dept of Agriculture soil test lab in Raleigh.

wThe Polk County Exten-sion Center in Columbus has the boxes and forms needed to complete your sample.

Saluda News &

Notationsby Bonnie Bardos

”If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, “thank you,” that would suffice.” ~ Meister Eckhart

Welcome to mid-November Saluda notes and notations! This column is going to be more of “Saluda Reflections,” so bear with me on that reflecting bit. As you may have noticed, sometimes I like to ramble and reflect.

A r o u n d the first of the month, Betsy Burdett wrote a column about children, based on Richard Louv’s book “Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder”. As ever, Betsy didn’t waste time beat-ing around the bush: and I found myself nodding my head in agreement as I read her thoughts on how different children today are from a gen-eration or a two ago – kids are missing out on the gross motor skills, but developing fine mo-tor skills.

You may not believe this, but once upon a time, I was a kid – yes, back when dino-saurs roamed the earth. When my mother got The Look on her face, or started hunting the hickory switches, we kids were gone. To the fields, to the woods: any where she couldn’t catch us easily, although she had a drill sergeant’s brass whistle to bring us in. I devel-oped a love of nature early on, because we were part of it: forts in the forest, summer gardens brimming with vegetables, flowers, and bordered by day lilies and irises. Apple trees. There were trails all through the woods, leading to long green pastures and brooks me-andering. Every day, we were walking those trails, climbing

trees, jumping streams, watch-ing the sky change above. Sometimes we fished in Mr. Tomberlin’s green pond, corks bobbing, cane poles bending.

There were bee trees to be found; all sorts of wildlife to observe; fields to walk and search for arrowheads. Often, picnics were had along 12 Mile

Creek, and to th is day, I love a sand-wich neatly wrapped in wax paper: it brings to mind those picnics. Per-

haps it’s all nostalgia, but it seems a shame that many children don’t have this magic in nature as part of their exis-tence. The world has changed; subdivisions sprawl over many of the fields I once ran in, through rustling corn rows...through cotton, through soy-beans. The woods have van-ished, replaced by pavement and big box stores.

When my mother yelled for us to go outside, it opened a new world. We didn’t spend all day watching tv; that was considered a treat. Maybe a dose of Perry Mason around lunch time, and I Love Lucy after school; but we either were doing homework or: you guessed it—outside! Also, do-ing chores: cutting wood, hang-ing out laundry, mowing, you name it. My mother believed in chores for us – and there was NO such thing as arguing the point. That was one woman you did not argue with – ever. In my mind’s eye, I can see the 1962 Nash Rambler station wagon we had, white with red leather upholstery. If I only had it now to haul paintings! There were no car seats in that car, nor seat belts. If we kids wanted a nap, we climbed in

the back and rolled up in a quilt. It was a great car: homely and simple, no bells and whistles. Of course, car safety has come a long way since then. It’s not all a bad thing, but still I won-der, how much have we lost?

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you out there in Bulletin land. I am grateful for all of you, for getting up in the morning, a place to call home, frosted winter glass sparkling, blazing maple leaves...and knowing so many good people!

Congratulations to Teresa Judge who works at Autumn Care as a CNA: she was a win-ner in the NC Fabulous 50.

Please remember the fam-ily of Pat (Littleton) Klefeker, her laughter will be sorely missed.

Motorcycles, start your en-gines! The Polk County Toy Run will be November 27, starting at the Saluda Fire De-partment. Registration is from 11-1:30.

Happy Birthday to Rich and Rita Igoe, Karen Johnson, Marsha Jenkins, Nancy Barnett, Dawn Pearson, Charles Pearson, Dusty Jespersen, Gwen Garren, Stoney Lamar, Jim Boyle, Tom Ellwood, Frank Beeson, Elaine Carr, and Wendy McEntire.

Thank you for reading this column; as ever, the goal is to make you, dear reader, feel like you’re enjoying a front porch visit with me– your comments are always wanted and valued. (With colder weather coming, we may have to move in and find a cozy spot in the house for hot tea instead.)

Lanier Library presents ‘Christmas Letters’ with Barbara Bates Smith Nov. 21

The Lanier Library will host a special holiday presentation of “Christmas Letters,” star-ring Barbara Bates Smith, on Sunday, November 21 at 2 p.m. The program is free and everyone is welcome.

Readers may remember see-ing Smith last spring when she gave a performance of Lee’s Smith’s “Fair and Tender La-dies” at the library. This time she will perform another play by the same author.

“Christmas Letters” chron-icles the life of Birdie Pick-ett through her letters to her mother and sister. The play is set in a North Carolina farm beginning in the 1940s and continues through three generations of the family. In her performance she is ac-companied by Jeff Sebins on numerous hand-made stringed instruments.

Smith has performed numer-ous literary adaptations, sev-eral by the novelist Lee Smith including “On Agate Hill” and “Fair and Tender Ladies.” She has also appeared in theatrical productions of “Driving Miss Daisy,” “Doubt,” “Hamlet,” “Three Tall Woman” and “Sis-ter Mary Ignatius.” She was in the world premiere of Horton Foote’s “Talking Pictures” and was named the 2003 Southeast-ern Theater Conference’s Best Actress for her role in “Talking Pictures.”

Smith has performed on

numerous stages in New York and Provincetown, and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland. In addition to her act-ing career, she is a playwright, musician and educator.

She founded the Taproot Theater Touring Ensemble in Lakeland, Florida, was the playwright in residence at the Harrison Performing Arts High School in Lakeland, FL, and at the University of Texas in Austin, TX.

She also performs in sign language for the deaf. She and her husband, Russell, now reside in the mountains near Clyde, NC.

This performance is made possible by a grant from the Kirby Endowment Fund and the Polk County Community Foundation.

Ollis, Wolverines not taking Cavaliers lightlyWolverines want to get ‘monkey’ off backsby Joey Millwood

a lot of the conversation in practice this week for the polk County football team has cen-tered on a “monkey.” they’re not talking about Curious george or watching old episodes of “B.J. and the Bear.”

they’re talking about the “monkey” that has been on their backs.

“(We) have to get the monkey off our back that has kept us from advancing out of the sec-ond round of the playoffs,” head coach Bruce ollis.

that task is going to be a little harder than what it seems on paper. east rutherford did the Wolverines a big favor last Friday night, upsetting starmount 24-14. the win by the Cavaliers ensured that the Wolverines would be at home at least one more round in the state 2a playoffs.

“our players, coaches and fans should not be swayed by the fact that they have lost five games this season,” ollis said. “east plays in a very tough 2a/3a league that I think prepares them for the playoffs.”

Just last season the Cavaliers lost a close Western regional matchup – the Cavaliers beat shelby in the regular season and lost a close matchup in the state playoffs with them. shelby went on to win the state champion-ship.

East is a run-first team that

features its tailback. Like most run-first teams, the Cavaliers will lull opposing defenses to sleep with the run and then throw in a pass, which often goes for big yardage. Last week two of their scores were a 60-yards short slant pass and a tailback pass for 50 yards. Defensively, the Cavaliers

are stout. they held a starmount team that was averaging 50 points to 14 last week, ollis said.

so what’s it going to take to get the “monkey” off polk’s back?

“We must eliminate their big play potential offensively and make them drive the ball to

score,” ollis said. “We need to make them defend the entire field on defense and keep them off bal-ance with an attack that includes spreading the ball around with both running and passing.”

Kickoff begins at 7:30 p.m. Friday night in the “Little Big House.”

Polk basketball games canceled Nov. 23polk County athletic Director Jeff Wilson has announced that all polk County girls and boys basketball games previously scheduled

for tuesday, Nov. 23 have been canceled because of the varsity football playoffs.

Bilbrey responseTo the Editor:

This is a response to the letter by Wayne Bilbrey in your Octo-ber 8 issue. It is late because one of the many disadvantages of be-ing an expatriate Tryonite is that the US Postal Service delivers the TDB out of order and when it feels like it, so this issue has just arrived and after several issues dated later.

I address here Mr. Bilbrey’s comments about the International Criminal Court, not his thoughts about Nancy Pelosi. Answering such comments is not only a pleasure because of my personal commitment to the ICC, but is also my job since I convene a coalition of US organizations dedicated to accurate information about the Court and promoting closer US relations with it (more at www.amicc.org).

The straight story on the ICC is that it is an independent inter-national organization, not part of the United Nations, although the UN conducted the negotiations that created it. Like the tribunals the UN Security Council estab-lished with strong US support for the situations in Yugoslavia and Rwanda, the ICC tries those monstrous leaders most respon-sible for the very worst atrocities of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. US troops are not in this category. However, unlike those tribunals the Court is permanent and not restricted to any particular place nor to any specified period of

time.114 countries belong to the Court by ratifying the Rome Statute including all members of the European Union, all members of NATO except the US and most countries in South America and Africa. The Court implements all the due process rights in the US Constitution except jury trial - US military justice does not use juries either and America regularly extradites US citizens to countries that do not have ju-ries. The Rome Statute requires the Court to provide speedy trials. Persons awaiting trials are de-tained in prisons at The Hague in the Netherlands where the Court has its headquarters or in other Countries that have volunteered their prisons. All such prisons must follow international penal standards.

The Court does not have its own police force and must rely on its members to make ar-rests called for by its warrants. Nonetheless, the Court has four cases in various stages of judi-cial process with the defendants in detention in The Hague. It is expected to complete its first case in May.

The American people and government need to have discus-sions about the Court and the US relationship with it. I hope this brief description will help your readers so inclined to participate in them with accurate knowledge about it.

O n l y l a s t weekend did I truly empathize with the fellow who produced my radio show, Anthony, when he would be-gin his annual rant about the holidays.

“I can’t stand Christmas,” he would mutter to both me and our listeners.

“I can’t stand putting up the tree and I can’t stand putting up the lights and I can’t stand wrapping anything and I can’t stand-”

“What is wrong with you?” I exclaimed. “You make Scrooge sound like Dale Carnegie. How can anyone hate Christmas? And you’ve got kids – doesn’t that give you any joy? Seeing it through their eyes?”

“They’re the ones that ruin it!” he spluttered. “Every year it’s the same – the wife puts on Christmas carols, makes some hot chocolate, gets us all in the mood, we start to put up the tree at 8 p.m., and then one of them throws a wad of tinsel at it, the other one bites or kicks him, they start fighting and whining and by 8:05, I’m yelling, “Go to your room!”

I would bait Anthony be-cause I knew he knew we were doing a comedic program and there was nothing his Italian soul loved more than engaging in some chest-puffing bra-vado.

“All kids throw wads of tin-sel at trees,” I said, unhelpfully, because there’s nothing people with kids love more than to hear those without them dispense

child-raising advice. “You’re supposed to let them throw wads and just wallow in their creative expression.”

“And so my tree winds up looking like a clown threw up on it.” he countered. “Stick to

your animals. Y o u k n o w nothing about kids.”

Anthony will be pleased as punch to learn I

recently had my own frustrating moment with said animals. Last Saturday, sunny and mild, was to be a joyous occasion as my injured horse, healing well from his strained tendon, was now transitioning from the confines of his stall to being allowed to mooch around his small pad-dock, monitored closely so that he didn’t explode into leaps and bucks of freedom and re-injure himself.

Making a peanut butter and apple sandwich (Granny Smith is wonderfully tart against the creamy Jif), I took a folding chair with me and said over my shoulder to Paul, “It’s such a nice day, I’m going to eat my lunch outside in Fozzy’s paddock.”

The Jacks, despite having just been fed, shadowed my heels, greedily hoping for a crumb or two. Balancing sand-wich, chair, and mug of tea, I walked to the barn envisioning spending a lovely afternoon amongst my much-loved, obe-dient, animals, gazing over the fields and absorbing the peak-ing colors of fall.

Laying a pile of hay in the corner of the paddock to keep him focused and quiet, I then led Fozzy gingerly from his stall to join me in the afternoon sun. Keeping hold of the lead line until I was quite sure he was settled and relaxed, I finally unclipped the rope and turned to park myself a few feet away

Best laid plans

“I’m Just Saying…”

by Pam Stone

in the chair, just in time to see Rosie, her one eye locked with laser-like focus onto my sand-wich, move in for the steal, snatching away half.

“You greedy, wretched, cur!” I cried, watching her fly around the corner of the barn, sand-wich firmly grasped between her jaws.

At this moment, a gaggle of cyclists appeared down our road, acres away, but seemingly closer in their neon-colored jerseys. This proved too much for Fozzy who, catching them whizzing past, flung up his head, intent on pivoting and exploding across the paddock, and would have if I hadn’t been able to lunge over to him in two strides to grab his halter, not un-like Roger Federer in full body stretch, returning serve.

Clipping the lead line back to halter, I said, “I’ll take you for a walk but you’re far too excited to stay out here right now,” and as we turned to the gate, Rosie, who really should apply for a slot on “The Biggest Loser,” was making another stealthy attempt to snatch the remainder of my lunch.

“Oh, no, you don’t!” I bel-lowed and grabbed not only the half sandwich but the yellow jacket that had settled comfort-ably into the peanut butter ooz-ing out the side, resulting in a sharp sting, my yelping, and the dogs scattering like chickens.

“That was quick,” remarked Paul as I stomped into the house blaming my ruined afternoon on everyone from Rosie to the stupid cyclists to Mitch McConnell.

“They’ve ruined everything. Everything!” I hissed. “I try to have one, relaxing, afternoon, and they just ruin it.”

At that moment, Rosie, her mouth still working from the peanut butter as if she were giving a soliloquy, trotted in-nocently into the kitchen.

“Go to your room!”

College scholarships available for local high school seniors

The Polk County Community Foundation recently kicked off its 2011 scholarship season with visits to area high schools and an announcement of over $140,000 in available awards.

Donors to the foundation have created 46 scholarships that will be open to graduating high school and home school students resid-ing in Polk County and Landrum. Student eligibility for awards ranges widely, from high academic achievement to financial need to specific areas of study, including technical and vocational training.

Last year the community foun-

dation awarded $121,900 in com-petitive scholarships, helping 59 local students attend colleges rang-ing from close to home choices like Isothermal Community College all the way to Hawaii Pacific Univer-sity. The awards can make a real difference in the lives of students in the community. “Without local scholarships like this one,” said a past recipient, “there would be many students, such as myself, un-able to attend college and accom-plish their goals and dreams.”

Applications and booklets de-scribing the scholarships are avail-able at Polk and Landrum High

Schools, public libraries, at the foundation office, and online at www.polkccf.org. All applications are due by Tuesday, December 7 by 1 p.m. Students are welcome to schedule appointments at the community foundation to review applications for completeness be-fore submitting.

For more information regarding scholarships, grants or charitable giving options, contact the Polk County Community Foundation at 255 South Trade Street in Tryon, call 828-859-5314, or visit www.polkccf.org.

Preserving and Protecting Your Assets

Lee C. Mulligan, Esq.

RuLing fRoM thE gRAvE

Q. if we leave our property in trust for our children, won't we be "ruling from the grave?"a. this question comes up frequently. Parents know their children's strengths and weaknesses well. If a child is mature and generally man-ages his or her life well, there is no reason for a trust to be unduly restrictive. In that case, a trust can actually be a "gift within a gift" providing access to funds for the child, but protecting the funds from ex-spouses and judgment creditors. If the child is not financially astute, a trust can provide a safety net for them, one that they cannot dissipate for nonessential expenses. In either case, you would just be helping your child fulfill the hopes and dreams you have for them. For answers on this or other estate planning is-sues call (828) 696-1811.

Preserving and Protecting Your Assets

Lee C. Mulligan, Esq.

WhAt iS PRobAtE?Q. What is probate anyway?a. In a nutshell, the probate process is a court proceeding that establishes the validity of a will and provides oversight to ensure accuracy in accounting for a decedent's assets, fair-ness in the treatment of heirs, and protection for the rights of the decedent's creditors. the process begins with the presen-tation of the will and can take on average 6 to 12 months. Of course this depends on the com-plexity of the estate and whether there are any challenges to the will. It is not necessary to hire a lawyer for every probate. If the assets are simple and there are no tax or other complexities and the executor is available in the state and has the time and capacity to handle the matters that arise, the executor can complete the process without attorney involvement.For answers on this or other estate planning issues call (828) 696-1811.

Dear Savvy SeniorWhat can you tell me about

diabetes and how can a person know if they have it? My sister and her husband, who are ages 65 and 63, were both recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and neither had a clue.

Surprised SisterDear Surprised,For seniors who don’t use

their cell phone very often but still want one for emergencies or occasional calls, there are a number of low-cost plans avail-able depending on your specific needs. Here’s where to find some of the cheapest deals.

Undiagnosed epidemicThe diabetes epidemic in the

U.S. is huge, especially among older adults. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that over 12 million se-niors, age 60 and older – roughly 23 percent of people in this age group – have diabetes today, but nearly half of them don’t know it. The danger of undiagnosed diabetes is that, left untreated, it increases the risk of heart disease and stroke and can escalate into kidney failure, blindness, loss of limbs and death.

Who’s vulnerable?There are a variety of factors

that can put you at risk of getting type 2 diabetes, including your:

• Family history: The more relatives you have with the dis-ease, the higher your risk.

• Weight: Being overweight with a body mass index (BMI) of 25 or more. See www.nhlbisup-port.com/bmi to calculate your BMI. The heavier you are, the greater your risk. Also, having excess fat around your waist,

rather than around the hips and thighs, increases your risk.

• Age: Your risk increases as you get older, especially after age 45.

• Blood pressure: Having high blood pressure – 140/90 or higher.

• Cholesterol: Having low HDL (good) cholesterol under 35 mg/dL or high triglycerides over 250 mg/dL.

• Race: Hispanic, Asian, Af-rican or Native Americans are more vulnerable.

To help you determine your risk, the American Diabetes As-sociation has a quick, online quiz you can take for free at www.diabetes.org/risk-test.jsp.

Symptoms The tricky thing about diabetes

is that the symptoms (fatigue, in-creased hunger, excessive thirst, frequent urination, unexplained weight loss, blurred vision, slow healing cuts or sores, tingling or numbness in the hands and feet) usually seem harmless, and often don’t appear for years until significant damage to the blood vessels has already occurred.

That’s why beginning at age 45, everyone should be tested for diabetes every three years. And you should get tested an-nually if you have any of the previously listed factors that put you at risk.

The testsThere are several tests your

doctor can give you to deter-mine whether you have diabetes including the “fasting blood glucose test” or the “oral glucose

tolerance test” that require an eight-hour fast before you take it. The “hemoglobin A1C test” or “random blood glucose test” can be taken any time regardless of when you ate.

If you’re reluctant to visit your doctor to get tested, an alternative is to test yourself. To do that, go to your pharmacy and buy a blood glucose monitor (many of them cost under $20). Fast over-night, and check your blood sugar in the morning. If your result is less than 100, you’re okay. But if your blood glucose is 100 to 125, then you have prediabetes. And if your reading is higher than 125, you may have diabetes.

If your reading is above 100, you need to visit your doctor to develop a plan to get it under control. In many cases lifestyle changes like losing weight, exercising, eating a healthy diet and cutting back on carbohy-drates may be all you need to do to get your diabetes under control. For others who need more help, many medications are available.
