Freedom Park has had their 1/2 mile walking track but now there is a new addition. Exercise equipment along that trail next to the kids playground. Another joint effort between Town Of Liberty and Randolph Hospital Community Health Foundation. Even better that is that they town positioned them so as you work out you can watch your kids while they play on the park equipment. A very well thought out process by the town. Here are just a few pictures of the just a few of the many pieces you will find there. What a better way than to work out while walking. So come alone, bring your family or get out with some friends and lets get our bodies in shape for a better life. See you there.

Movies Coming Back To LibertyWell the buzz is hitting the streets fast in Liberty. And yes, movies are coming back to the old Curtis Theater now the Liberty Showcase. Through grant money from NC STEP Program the town now has a large 17 foot screen and system. A joint venture between Ron Staley owner of Liberty Showcase and a new committee appointed by Town Manager and approved by Liberty Town Council are working through the details. It appear the first shows will be the second week of March. For starters shows will me Thur, Fri and Sat nights at 7:30pm and a Thursday afternoon matinee for Seniors. Once attendance picks up I hope to see two shows. Plans are that each week will be a different movie. There will be special Sunday Christian theme movies in the works. Ron will still continue to have his occasional music venue also. Look at the concession prices, wow. Here is where you can stay local , grab a meal before or after and catch a show. I have had so much fun following the flood of memories that have been pouring out since the announcement of movies. Follow the memory train below and share yours. Don Herndon , President of Chamber said, “I will go. I have great memories of the Curtis Theater movies. That was about all the culture we had here. I saw Gone With the Wind, Ben Hur, Raging Bull and so many other great films in that building. The owner that followed just couldn't make it work because of VHS rentals, BUT I think folks would like to "get out" occasionally these days.” Don also added, “When you were grade school age, you went to the 2pm Sat matinee, but you knew you were bigtime when you went to the 7pm or 9pm shows.” Chris Cheek Jobe,” I think I saw all of the Elvis movies.” Alice Collier Smith Moore , “My mother, Margaret Smith, the Liberty School librarian, and I saw "Blazing Saddles," among other 'classics.' What a hoot!” Gayle Day Yeager ,”I loved Mrs. Smith - I will always especially remember her reading "The Box Car Children" to us - she was wonderful.” Alice Collier Smith Moore ,”Gayle Day Yeager, she still has that book on her bookshelf at Friends Homes West!” John Cummings ,”I remember the Saturday Matinee, 25 cents admission, and pop corn and a drink another 25 cents. A whole afternoon of entertainment for much less than a dollar.” Marcia Day ,” I went to work in 1965 - kids under 12 25 cents, students 60 cents and adults 75 cents., drinks were a dima and popcorn 15 cents. Loved working there.” Archie Durham,” Hmmm...I wonder if the ghost of Mr. Curtis will be in the theater like he used to with his flashlight during the movie making sure the teenagers are behaving. He and his Mom also owned the Siler City Drive In movie, and he did the same thing there!” Leslie
Smith-Moore,” I remember watching the Rocky horror Picture show there. Bunch of my friends came home with me from college &
went to see it there.” Kasey Williamson Ferguson Hey ,”I have been asking about this for years now I'm so glad to see this coming back!!! Some of my best childhood memories are walking to the theater from school or my mom's work and catching a movie for a dollar!!” See you at the movies!!!!

ERHS Alumni Basketball GamePictures are worth a thousand word or you can say a thousand cheers. That is what was heard at the ERHS Alumni first basketball game. Hope this is the first of many to come. It was so great to see past graduate of all ages playing side by side, cheering from side by side. What was even more great was seeing the large smiles from old classmates reunited and laughing and sharing memories. My hat off to the great team that organized and pulled off this great event. Even looks like the the old wildcat mascot had him a time of his life that night also.What a great turn out at the 1st annual ERHS Alumni game! A grass roots effort that came together. If you missed it, you missed a great reunion! Special thanks to Lisa Tally Collins & the boosters for putting this together! It was wonderful seeing so much ER pride!

James Gregory "The Funniest Man In America" Performing at Liberty Showcase Theatre
In Historic Downtown Liberty NC
Friday March 6th at 7:30 For Ticket and Information Please Phone Box Office at 336-622-3844
Or Online at funniestman.com.
Ready To Get Your Laugh OnComedian, Legend James Gregory comes to the Historic Downtown Liberty at the Liberty Showcase. On Friday March 6th, James Gregory "The Funniest Man In America" will bring his "clean" blend of humor back auditorium in The Liberty Showcase. A great show for all ages ! For information please visit funniestman.com or phone the box office at 336-622-3844. James Gregory grew up watching stand-up comedy on programs like Jack Benny, Milton Berle and the Ed Sullivan Show. After some nudging from his friends, he started doing open mic stand-up in Atlanta and things just took off. Today he performs his down-home stories of food, funerals and funny relatives to sold-out theatres, working 48 weeks of the year. He’s also a regularly invited guest on national radio shows, like The Bob & Tom Show , Moby In The Morning and The Big Show with John Boy and Billy. Early in his career he earned the moniker, “Funniest Man in America,” but, he’s quick to tell you, “At that time there were only 13 states.” His jokes are squeaky clean as, he says, “My mother wouldn’t let me tell them if they weren’t.” It’s the kind of show you could feel comfortable bringing your date or your grandmother. What’s really unique about Gregory is his appeal to people of all ages, races, creeds and colors. It’s not unusual to see three generations rolling in the aisles. He comes off as that funny uncle that everyone gathers around at family reunions, because he has the best stories – and so reminds people of their own families. While his routines include such Southern subjects as covered-dish suppers, road trips to Stuckey's, and the healthy aspects of fried foods, it’s a mistake to consider him a regional comic. Says Gregory, "To me, Southern comedians are guys who get onstage and talk about pickup trucks, rifle racks and cow-tipping. I don't talk about the South; I just deliver my material with a Southern accent. My comedy is based on the real life-the people I grew up with. My notions about food came from them. They all eat fried foods and many of them are in their eighties. Meanwhile you read in the news how some health nut kicked the bucket jogging on the way home from the health food store.” He says, “People come to a comedy club to laugh. It seems like the new thing in comedy today is 'stream of consciousness' or 'cerebral' material. I doubt if a husband and wife ever looked at each other on their way to a comedy club and said, 'Gee, I hope this guy is going to be real cerebral tonight.' I think they say, 'He sure better be funny.'"You could image that after 30 years, a comedian might become a bit jaded. Not Gregory. When he hits the stage, he comes alive like someone just plugged him in, and his fans adore him. After each show, he truly enjoys meeting with fans and signing autographs. He says, “We're living in such a cynical age, sometimes people don't believe me when I tell them, ‘I’m really glad to be here’ during my show. But it's true. I owe them all a debt of gratitude. If not for them, I wouldn’t get to do what I most love.

New Restaurant Re-Opens To Historical LocationDogwood Bistro will be opening Feb. 14. As I noted last month in the story, this restaurant will be a farm to table menu. Makes you wonder how much the original location did the same. Life was different back then. Oh the good old days. Well with one picture a flood of memories can back to many locals. Thanks to local James Brower for sharing the original photo of this restaurant. James Brower stated, “We all fondly remember Liberty Drive Inn. If you're old enough, you may remember it started out as Pugh's Grill and Barbecue, owned and operated by Mr. and Mrs. Nate Pugh. Ritchie York, Judy's hubby is their grandson.” Well for me this was a new piece of knowledge, for I always thought this place was known for Liberty Drive In. From this one statement follow the flow of history recalled by so many great people. Ann Wilson Leonard shared, “We spent many an hour at that place...but outside...did anybody ever go inside in those days?? And you had to circle in your car all the way around back to check out who else was there!” Virginia Walters concluded, “ Ahhhhh….circling Liberty Drive Inn! So many great memories! Yes, Ann, I remember going inside after "home" basketball games and just hanging out, however, the real fun was circling just to see who was there and what was going on! Didn't take much to entertain us back then, uh?!” The rich history that made Liberty great and being recalled for the current citizens. Wynell Clapp added, “Round Round Round The Liberty Drive Inn! Those were the days! We all had a blast so many memories!” Archie Durham recalled, “ Ah yes,Liberty Drive In..... I remember it well .I'd love to go back to that time and place and have a burger and fries or a cold beer and see some of the old friends from back then. We didn't know how lucky we were to be at that age and place and in those times. “ Margie Ward recalled, “I remember they had the best hamburgers! We stopped there on our way home from basketball games in the '54,'55, and '56 era.” Judith Griffith Rogers said, “Do I remember circling Liberty Drive Inn--that's just the way it was!!!! Loved it!!! “Yvonne Wright recalled, “ I remember the drive-in ,it was great.”Don David Lambe recalled, “We could circle Liberty Drive In but could not stop. It sold beer. That's the way we were raised. We parked at Bi-Rite.” Robie George Gray Jimmy stated, “Bring back many, many memories! I think I see my 1956 Ford in the picture.” Chris Cheek Jobe added, “Yes, I remember. I think the car in the far right belonged to Mom & Dad. We were always there. Aunt Frances worked there for as long as I can remember and then became manager. Robie was this your car or my parents? Good question.” Sometimes a story rights it self. As you can see this one did.

Booking Now For Proms and Weddings
Patterson Cottage Museum Corner -Brenda Heindl, Committee Member In the collections of the Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts (MESDA) in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is a chest of drawers made not too far from Liberty. This piece (photos courtesy of MESDA), was made around 1833 by a man named Eli Spoon who worked in Randolph County. A signature in one of the drawers reads, “Joseph Whitney 1833.” Joseph Whitney was an apprentice to Eli Spoon. Eli Spoon’s signature is also on this piece. Initial research has shown that Eli Spoon was born around 1798 and lived in Randolph County until the 1880s when he passed away. A unique feature of this piece are the panels on the sides of the chest. The 1⁄4” lunettes in the corners of the molded panels are not seen typically on other North Carolina pieces of furniture from that time period, although it is seen in architecture. In 1982, this chest of drawers was found at an auction west of Melanchthon at the Amick family home between Grays’s Chapel and Liberty. Other than the Amick family being of German descent, little is known about them or their possible connections to Eli Spoon. Do you know about the Amick or Spoon families from Randolph County? Have you ever seen any pieces of furniture similar to this? SUPPORT YOUR COMMUNITY! Become a Friend of the Patterson Cottage, or sign a friend or family member up, and support your community. We have started a fundraising campaign to support the outreach efforts of the museum, conservation and protection of the collections, and preservation of the Patterson Cottage. E-mail [email protected] to receive a form or stop by the Liberty Town Hall to pick one up. Help preserve your community through its history! We are closed until May, but please contactus if you would like to visit the museum in the coming months. For more information, e-mail: [email protected] or contact one of the following committee members:Warren Dixon: 336-622-2731 Brenda Heindl: 336-483-1231 Help us make this YOUR museum!
