Deadline passes, but no truck permits issued T

rinity has yet to issue any truck parking permits because they are not currently defined by ordinance, explained City Manager Ann Bailie. The permits will be issued as soon as City Council decides what the permits will allow and amends the zoning ordinance to reflect that change.

“I stand by my motion — 30 days,” answered Councilman Kelly Grooms, and the Council agreed.

Grooms’ original motion, made at the end of a heated discussion during the Feb. 16 meeting, allowed truck drivers to apply for a permit within 30 days, provided the driver was the owner of the property where it would be parked. The deadline was March 18.

Even though the filing period has ended, the requirement drew opinions during the public comment portion of the meeting, which is held prior to Council’s discussion of agenda items. Each speaker is allowed three minutes to address the elected body.

Archdale fees, garbage & recycling, to remain steady

A

rchdale’s annual budget process is just beginning, but city leaders have decided one thing — that garbage and recycling fees will stay the same.

BY ELIZABETH SAUNDERS At Archdale’s annual retreat, Finance Director Lori Nurse gave council members an update on the solid waste collection program. Before 2007, garbage bills weren’t enough and taxes subsidized garbage collection. Since 2007, the city has tried to pay for the program with the utility fees. Nurse said that it’s been hard to project costs because of factors like fluctuating fuel prices.

Nurse asked the Council if they want the waste program, which is still under the general fund, to be self-supporting and in a separate fund. Council may discuss that during their budget meetings.

The current waste collection contract goes through June 2013, which helps with budget planning. However, changing landfill charges and a fluctuating market for recyclables, as well as fuel prices, make costs unpredictable.

In fiscal year 2008, 11 percent of Archdale’s total waste weight was recycled. The city paid $38 per ton, the same as for garbage.

This past year, residents doubled the recycled amount to about 22 percent. In January, the landfill fee was $0. In February, the city got paid $4 per ton of recyclables.

“It’s gotten better every single month,” said Nurse.

The fees collected gave the city a surplus in 2008-2009, but Nurse predicts that 2010 will see a shortfall. City leaders and staff hope that if they keep fees the same, everything will level out.

We don’t want to cut the price way back one year, and then raise it a lot higher the next year, said Councilman Lewis Dorsett.

“I think where we are now is about right,” said Councilman Eddie Causey.

Garbage and recycling cost residents $11 and $3, respectively.

“I don’t think there’s a service in the world that would do it for $14 a month,” Causey said. “And with the state putting in the restrictions with the plastic bottles and garbage like that, I think we’re ahead of the curve.”

Budget meetings for other items, such as water and sewer fees and taxes, have not yet been scheduled.

Repairs are desperately needed at the Trinity Historic House Museum at 7524 N.C. Hwy. 62, in the former home of Dr. Thomas Winslow. The home was donated in 2003 to the Trinity Historic

Preservation Society by Ella Richardson.

“As with all buildings, ours is in constant need of repairs,” said Eric Smith, president of the Society. “At this time, we need to replace and paint doors and windows, patch holes in an outbuilding roof, do some electrical work and replace steps.”

“It’s something all the time when you are using a building as old as this one is,” said SEE MUSEUM ON PAGE 4

HPU prepares kids for YMCA soccer T

he High Point University women’s soccer team helped youth in the Grubb Family YMCA soccer program prepare for opening day, March 20.

The free clinic was held Feb. 27 at the soccer complex in Trinity. About 100 kids learned from the defending Big South champions. “It was a very successful weekend,� Assistant Coach Brandi Fontaine said. “This was a great way for our team to get out and get involved in the community. Clinics like this help to remind our players that soccer is more than a game to these kids. It is about having fun and being part of a team. It is very important for us to reach out to the people here. This helps teach the girls about the importance of giving back to the community.�

The Panthers worked with the young players on several different soccer skills including passing, receiving and dribbling and also worked to improve their speed Katie Taber of High Point University women’s soccer team leads YMCA and agility. participants in a dribbling drill.

I called the Archdale Pubic Library.

As always they were very helpful. Branch Manager George Taylor said that they had just received some. I drove to the library to pick up another form.

Librarian Linda Hurley asked me whether I would prefer a form in English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese or Russian.

The very next day, my completed form — in English — was on its way to be counted.

Whew. My bacon was saved and hopefully I will not have to go to prison.

So when you get your census form, first make a copy of it and file in triplicate. Then fill out that bad boy and put it in the mail.

Stand up and be counted ... except for Tippy. Put down the mail, girl! Put it down!

Good girl.

MUSEUM

Continued from front society member Fran Andrews.

The society uses the home as a museum to collect and preserve local historical artifacts, images and documents.

Going inside is almost like stepping into a time machine.

Kitchen cabinets still have their 1940’s hardware. An upstairs room, set up like an 1800’s doctor’s office, commemorates Dr. Winslow. The children’s bedroom features a 100-year-old bed.

A mannequin dressed in full Naval uniform stands at attention in a room which showcases memorabilia of military service.

Mollie Jones’ favorite piece is a hanging pie safe in the kitchen.

Kenneth Orr, also a member of the Historic Preservation Society, believes that the museum is a perfect place to display photographs, books, antiques and memorabilia from Trinity’s history.

“We have recently acquired Dr. Winslow’s journal,” he said. “It goes back to 1853. It is important to the community. It is almost a who’s who of the people who lived in Trinity.”

The journal adds vital understanding about the time period when Trinity College — which was the town’s name back then — was formed.

History most often is taught using books, but having the items arranged in a realistic way gives a three-dimensional viewpoint of what life was like long ago.

“The museum offers an elementary school child the chance to come in and see these things in the setting in A upstairs room fea- which they were used,” Jones tures medical artisaid. “We can say to that child, facts, some from the era of Dr. Thomas in your grandpappy and greatWinslow, who built grandpappy’s day, people were the house about doing real things in a real way, right here.”

1855.

The ceiling of an upstairs bedroom shows eviPhotos by Debbie Hightower dence of water damage.

In addition to providing a safe place for the historic objects, the Winslow home itself serves as an example of Trinity’s history.

The oldest deed that can be found for the home is dated 1866, but the house is believed to have been constructed in the 1850s. However, the home has been altered.

“A wood-burning fireplace in the kitchen area, which they used for cooking, was closed in,” said Orr. “I would like to see it restored to its original state.”

The Trinity Historic Preservation Society operates solely from fundraisers and donations. Members would love to add exhibit areas, but the priority now is basic maintenance and emergency repairs. The repairs must be made soon so that the Society can continue to have a safe place for all the artifacts.

Donations of funds, labor or supplies would be appreciated.

The society is a nonprofit corporation. All donations are tax deductible. To make a donation, send a check to Trinity Historic Preservation Society, P.O. Box 777, Trinity NC 27370.

For more information or for tours, contact Andrews at 431-9456, Jones at 434-1616 or Orr at 431-5737.

United Way thanks community The staff of United Way of Greater High Point stopped by the Archdale-Trinity News last week to say thank you to the community for its support of the 2009 campaign. The United Way, which supports programs in the Archdale-Trinity area and programs which serve the area, raised $4,336,572. United Way staff members Nate Broman-Fulks, left, and Joe Barnes paste a big ‘thank you’ on the United Way sign on Archdale Road. Broman-Fulks is with AmeriCorps VISTA, a national service program which helps nonprofit organizations fight poverty. Barnes serves as campaign division director.

Continued from front

Chester Ayres, a vocal supporter of the original ordinance which banned truck parking and an opponent of the permits, said the original ordinance was passed to keep residential areas residential.

“Issuing permits to truckers is like issuing permits to smokers, they’re getting around the law,” Ayres told the Council. “I’m asking that these permits have a sunset clause, that they expire on a specific date.”

A sunset clause terminates a law or portions of a law after a specific date unless further legislative action is taken.

Pam Goins just wanted to know why the Council would allow ‘Issuing permits to permits because it re- truckers is like issuverses the original deci- ing permits to smoksion to ban tractor-trailer ers, they’re getting parking in residential around the law.” neighborhoods.

— Chester Ayers, Trinity “The original ordinance was well thought out,” she said. “Why change it for a minority?

If this is the way it goes, zoning laws are a joke. The only rights truckers have are the same as others — the right to use their home as a home.”

Mary Hiatt, a neighbor of Goins, agreed.

Jerry Sturgis, another long-time supporter of the truck parking ban, expressed his neighborhood’s discontent with the permits.

“Our neighborhood feels you [City Council] have discriminated against us!” Sturgis railed. “The trucker next door has an unpaid citation from the city for $1,250 from when the ordinance was first passed. This permit is going to wash that away!”

(Bailie confirmed that the citation was issued and unpaid, but said the Council would make the final decision as to whether or not it must be paid when it determines permit requirements.)

The truckers also had something to say during the March meeting.

“I understand (Pam Goins) and the others, things should be handled differently,” Trent Wilmoth said.

“I’m just trying to make an honest living. Why don’t we work things out as neighbors and stop wasting tax money?”

Tommy Wilmoth, Trent Wilmoth’s father, agreed, and added that the situation was ridiculous.

“You’re trying to bring (solutions for) heavily populated areas into Trinity when this whole situation is over one group,” he complained. “Let’s set up a boxing ring and settle this!”

Wilmoth’s suggestion drew some applause from the audience, but he was rebuked by Mayor Carlton Boyles for violating procedure. According to Boyles, his suggestion was aimed at the audience and the rules of public comment require that those speaking only address the Council.

Ed Lohr, a vocal proponent of truckers’ right to park on their own property, was upset that the permits might do more than just allow existing trucks to keep parking.

“I came to the pre-agenda meeting and was shocked to hear that we can only have one truck per property,” he said.

Permit items tentatively agreed upon include annual renewal of the permit, a specific definition of tractor and trailer, allowing one tractor and no trailers per property, and allowing drivers to exchange or replace trucks.

Drivers will have to provide a valid commercial driver’s license (CDL) to be eligible.

It has not been decided if the truck owner must be the owner of the property where the truck is parked.

Bailie said the city would work out the details concerning the permits and ordinance at a special called meeting set for 4 p.m. today (March 25) at City Hall.

There will be no public comments at the meeting.

Wisdom

“Capturing the Moments of a Lifetime� alsphotography@triad.rr.com www.alsphotographyonline.com

Wisdom is a quality that is hard to define, though we usually know it when we see it, and almost always recognize its absence, which is folly. While it is often associated in literature with bearded, white-haired gurus who give sage advice, wisdom is essentially about having good judgement and perspective.

Older people seem to have it simply because they have had more experiences, and they have been through the trials and tribulations of a long life. We sometimes say that young people are wise beyond their years, but in reality no one who has not weathered the storms of time can truly be wise.

But is it necessary to have suffered through sickness or the deaths of loved ones and various misfortunes to gain a deeper perspective on life, or do the ordinary stresses of a challenging career and relationships suffice to give one the necessary perspective that is considered wisdom??It is reported that Freud was once asked what a normal healthy person should be able to do, and he answered to love and to work. ?Perhaps the growth and maturity that comes from a life of loving and working is enough for most of us to develop that intangible quality we call wisdom.

Meet your neighbor ...

Sabrina Williford

‘Hit the gas’ S

abrina Williford leads a busy life as a wife, mother, bank manager and Communities In Schools mentor. The petite dynamo relaxes by drag racing and then kicks back — literally — with Tae Kwon Do.

BY DEBBIE HIGHTOWER On the track at Farmington Dragway in Mocksville, Sabrina revs up her 1983 Chevy S-10 for a test drive on the eighth-mile track.

It’s her, the road and an engine as she prepares for her first race of the season on March 27.

Her husband, Chris, and dad, Roger Ferguson, watch.

“All I could hear was my husband’s voice saying, ‘Hit the gas!’” said Sabrina.

Putting the pedal to the metal is a family tradition.

Roger, who lives in Asheboro, has built and restored cars since he was 16. He built the cars to run fast so his deputy sheriff dad couldn’t catch him.

Roger’s skill not only helped him escape from a speeding ticket, it also helped to build Farmington, said Sabrina.

Roger put his baby girl in the driver’s seat as soon as she could sit up. By high school, Sabrina and her dad had converted a blue Camaro into a foot-brake racer. Sabrina drove the car in Friday night shoot-outs and test-and-tune races at North Wilkesboro and Rockingham Speedway, as well as Farmington.

There’s no doubt — like her dad, she loves the speed.

Perhaps this rush factored into a chance meeting with her future husband.

Four years ago, Chris Williford ran his grocery store shopping cart into Sabrina’s shopping cart.

“I thought he was cute, but I didn’t give my number to a stranger,” she said. “We corresponded by e-mail for a couple of months before we had our first date.”

When Chris and Sabrina married two years ago, he knew that he was marrying into a drag racing family — a family well versed in the nuts and bolts of racing. That’s a good thing.

Last season, Sabrina and her dad completed modifications to her 1983 Chevy S-10. She helped with the selection of the block, intake heads, valves and cams. The build was time-consuming, but it didn’t keep her away from the race track.

“You spend a lot more time building your drag racer and getting it ready,” she said.

She cheers for Chris, who will drive a Camaro in the foot-and-brake division this season.

Although Sabrina’s 7-year-old son Roger is too young to be a drag racer, the family discovered something that they can all do — martial arts. Chris takes mixed martial arts classes and Sabrina and Roger take Tae Kwon Do. “Family is very important to us,” Sabrina said.

Drag racing and martial arts both take determination.

Sabrina’s spirit of determination dates back to her days at Trinity High School, where she was a member of the

Beta Club and president of the Science Club. Her hard work during four years of Air Force Junior ROTC merited a nomination to attend West Point.

“I worked hard for good grades in high school because I knew that I wanted to go to college, and I knew that my family couldn’t afford it. So my only hope of accomplishing my goal would be working and putting myself through school or getting a scholarship. Besides, I loved learning, so it never really felt like work to me.”

Sabrina wants to help students in Archdale-Trinity have a bright future. She serves as a mentor for Communities In Schools.

When she addressed the GIRLS club — or Girls In RealLife Situations — at Archdale-Trinity Middle School, she spoke from experience.

She was the first one in her family to graduate from high school, but her plans for college were nearly sidetracked.

“I was a teenage mom myself,” she said. She married and moved to Oklahoma right after her high school graduation.

Alone and newly separated, Sabrina in 2004 returned to her hometown with her infant son. At first, she worked for Blockbuster Video. Still a teenager, she had to juggle two or three jobs to support herself and her son.

In the years that followed, she not only provided for her small family, she also purchased a home and earned a college degree.

Determination wasn’t all that helped her get through this time.

Sabrina and Chris, pictured below, are hands-on “I made it with God’s help,” she said. when it comes to race-car maintenance.

At age 20, she landed a job with Wachovia bank as a teller. Because her hours at the bank were stable, Sabrina returned to school. She graduated from Greensboro College in December 2007 with a degree in business administration.

Working full-time and attending classes was rough, but it was worth it. Her career got on the fast track, earning her a job at RBC Bank in Archdale, where she was named branch manager Jan. 31.

“The best part of my job as a banker is helping people accomplish their goals — purchasing a home, putting kids through college and making sure they have everything set for retirement,” she said.

Sabrina teaches a free evening class at the bank about finance management, budgeting and saving for the future.

Although she holds a degree in business administration, these are topics that she learned through experience as a single mom.

Life has been a race for Sabrina and perhaps that makes the rush on the racetrack sweeter. Her first points race is Saturday in the street division.

“There are no computers or electronics of any type allowed,” said Sabrina. “Drag racing is more a matter of driver skill and strategy.

“At the end of the race, it’s like I’m shaking, but I’m not scared at all. It’s so cool. You really can’t describe it.

There’s nothing like it.”

Commissioners noted that the tipping fees associated with a regional facility could mean a 2- to 3-cent tax reduction.

Other needs include the upgrade of the county’s emergency services communication equipment, cardiac monitors for all ambulances, replacement or renovation of the Liberty ambulance base, expansion of the Randolph County Jail to ease overcrowding and a new animal shelter.

The NEWS will report on these needs in future editions.

Before vacation, check school Web sites for exam schedules High school officials ask that parents avoid scheduling vacations near exam time.

Parents should check the Web site of their student’s school for exam dates, said THS Assistant Principal Lynn DiFoggio. “Many families plan vacations during the week of exams,� said DiFoggio. “If your child is in one of the end-of-course exams, please take all of the exam dates into consideration when planning any vacations before June 9.�

The North Carolina Department of Instruction mandates that students in algebra I, English I, biology, civics or U.S. history must score a level three on the end-ofcourse exam.

Students who score below a level three must be remediated and retested. “If your child does not participate in the remediation and the retesting, he or she will

Students who score below a level three in algebra II, geometry and physical science also have to be remediated and retested. The higher exam score will be counted as 25 percent of the final grade.

Randolph County Schools will not offer summer academy for students who did not score a level three on the retest. Because of time constraints, all make-up exams must take place no later than June 4. Remediation and retesting for students who scored a level two on the first exam must take place

by June 8.

With regard to the Archdale-Trinity district, Superintendent Donald Andrews said that although it would be several more years, the school system is now looking at building a second middle school on Surrett Drive in Trinity instead of next to Wheatmore High School. Under this proposal, Braxton Craven could become an alternative education facility for both high schools or a ninth grade academy for Trinity High School.

Breast Enlargement Now Less Painful and A Great Time of Year To Do It Breast augmentation has, again, become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures. The silicon gel breast implant â€œďŹ ascoâ€? has faded (where it belongs,) and besides, we use saline implants most of the time anyway.

Let’s talk about breast enlargement.

When I am seeing a patient thinking of enlarging her breasts, the biggest reason she hasn’t already had the operation is usually the fear of pain. Now, pain is always an important reason.

But, we have a great gadget to help with pain. The ON-Q Pain pump has been a true blessing for many of the painful operations we do. For instance, if you are considering a tummy tuck, we use it here too. This pump is like blowing up a balloon, except we use numbing medications (like

lidocaine which a dentist might use to numb your teeth.) The numbing uid is slowly passed through a small tube that we insert next to your breast implant.

The implant is bathed in the lidocaine for TWO DAYS. WOW! The worst of the pain occurs in the ďŹ rst two days, so you get help during the most painful time. We still give you narcotics, but narcotics sometime have side effects like nausea and constipation that obviously are less if you need less, and use less.

Fantastic.

So, what are you waiting for? Bathing suit season is coming soon. Having your surgery now is a good idea. The reason is that we are probably going to place the implant under the pectoralis (chest-come on, you can learn some anatomy too)

muscle. The thing about putting implants there is that it takes time for the pectoralis to stretch out.

We need this stretching over weeks to months to allow the implant to lower itself into a correct position behind your breast.

OK, what’s your excuse now? We can help you with the pain, and NOW is a great time to have breast augmentation. Get the body balance you want. I tell my patients we are in the Happy Business. And it’s true. Our breast enlargement patients are some of our happiest!

It’s spring!

Parents and children flocked to the Easter bunny (aka Zach Thompson) during the Spring Fling held Friday and Saturday by the Archdale-Trinity Merchants Alliance. The bunny visited several area merchants, who participated in the event.

Bonnie Place was probably the most hopping. ‘We had people to stop in for the [free] samples,’ said Wet Whistle owner Carol Hamilton. Archdale Bakery, pictured in the background above, also gave out samples.
