Trinity to reconsider curbside trash, recycling F ollowing several months of study

by Trinity’s Trash And Recycling Task Force, City Manager Ann Bailie said that the city was ready to reconsider the implementation of mandatory curbside trash and recycling service.

BY ROBYN HANKINS The announcement was made at Council’s regular Aug. 17 meeting.

Curbside service would be provided by

three local trash haulers — Handy, Roadside and Smith — who would form a corporation. The city would then contract with that corporation.

“By law, we are not required to bid out this project,” Bailie told Council.

However, she continued, N.C. General Statutes do require the city to compensate any other displaced haulers operating in Trinity. The only way to avoid compensating the other haulers would be to wait 15 months before implementation of curbside service.

Other haulers who operate in Trinity include Caraway Disposal, Greenwood Garbage, Justice Enterprises and North Davidson Garbage. According to information solicited from residents, these haulers provide services for only 20 of the city’s households.

State statutes require the city to provide compensation equal to six months of gross revenue to the haulers being displaced; this translates to $1,800. If Trinity attempted to work haulers other than Handy, Roadside and Smith, the displacement compensation

would be $180,000.

Bailie said that the Council could have a contract with haulers to consider as early as October, and that citizen outreach and education could be held in November and December.

“If necessary we will hold a public hearing, but we’re not sure that it’s required by statute,” she told the NEWS. “Still, people are going to know about this because we’ll be talking about it at every meeting (for the SEE CURBISDE ON PAGE 14

Wheatmore makes AYP

W

heatmore High School did make Adequate Yearly Progress. In fact, the school met all of its 13 target goals.

Due to misinformation, the NEWS reported in the Aug. 19 edition that Wheatmore, Coleridge Elementary School in Coleridge and Southmont Elementary School in Asheboro failed to make AYP. This was incorrect.

The results for the article were taken from the website of the N.C. Department of Public Instruction. The results could be obtained from three links, however only one link listed the results as preliminary.

The chart used by the NEWS did not indicate the information was preliminary.

Revisions were made after the initial results were released. According to Kari Hulin, testing coordinator with Randolph County Schools, the revised results will not be posted on the state’s website until after they are approved by the state board in October.

The NEWS regrets the misinformation.

Representatives from the schools were gracious.

“We made AYP last year and made it again this year, so we’re very excited down here,” said Sherrie Hall, principal of Southmont Elementary. “We want people to know that.”

WHS Assistant Principal Eric Johnson agreed.

“Our students and staff worked extremely hard this past year to make the initial year of Wheatmore a success,” he told the NEWS. “Every nugget of positive information we can get out to the community about Wheatmore’s successes will help build community pride and ownership for our school.”

Baby supplies needed The Family Crisis Center in Archdale is in need of baby supplies for its clients, said Laura Stockwell, program director of the Archdale site.

Needed items include diapers, especially larger size diapers, and baby clothes.

Stockwell offers parenting classes and some of those who participate, already in tough situations, cannot afford the diapers. They also lack the means to properly launder cloth diapers. For those in domestic violence situations, emergency food is available, but not diapers.

To help, call Stockwell at 434-5579. Donations may be taken to the Archdale office, in the same facility as Community Outreach of Archdale-Trinity, at 10607 N. Main St.

New technology to clean Archdale’s water W

hen Archdale starts receiving water from the Randleman Regional Reservoir, that water will have been cleaned by four different processes — two more than state and federal laws require.

BY ELIZABETH SAUNDERS The new John F. Kime Water Treatment Plant, near completion, is expected to come online in September, depending on state certification. In addition to the usual sediment removal and chemical treatment, the plant will use a membrane filtration system — the first of its kind in North Carolina.

In stage 1, also called a pretreatment process, raw water goes through a pulsator system to remove large particles.

In stage 2, the water is treated with chemicals and filtered through sand and coal, called the dual media filters.

After these two stages, the water already meets Environmental Protection Agency requirements for drinkable

water, Joe McGougan, of Marziano and McGougan engineering firm, told members of the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority Board during an Aug. 10 tour.

Stage 3 sends the water through a membrane filtration system. Each membrane has thousands of hollow fibers in it.

“The membrane fibers have an opening so small that it prevents any bacteria from getting through it,” said McGougan. “It positively removes all bacteria from the system.” He added that the membrane filter stage is mechanical, whereas most water treatment processes are chemical.

The membranes, which come from Australia, are only manufactured by two companies in the world. McGougan hopes that more companies will make them as patents expire. The membranes have an expected life of seven to 10 years.

Every 40 minutes, the water flow is reversed to rinse SEE WATER PLANT ON PAGE 6

Bush Hill connects organizations to community T

he Bush Hill Heritage Festival provides a platform for nonprofits, says Rita Walker, executive director of Community Outreach of Archdale-Trinity.

“It’s just another example of the community coming together for the good of everyone.”

Bobby Smith, president of the United Way of Greater High Point, would never miss an opportunity to set up at the Bush Hill Heritage Festival, set for 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Saturday, Sept. 11. It’s just that important. This will be the eighth year United Way has participated.

“We would never miss this event, because it is a wonderful, golden opportunity to reach thousands of people,” Smith said last year. “Through our presence at the Bush Hill Heritage Festival, we are able to inform people about the services and programs we offer — and tell them what they can do for themselves, for us and for the community.”

It’s also important to let people in the area know that the United Way of Greater High Point covers them, too.

“It’s the greater High Point area,” Smith pointed out.

“That includes not only High Point and Jamestown, but Archdale and Trinity as well.”

Smith’s feelings are not uncommon.

The Festival serves as the forum for the YMCA’s 5K Run, Walk and Talk the morning of the festival. For information about that event, call 861-7788 or visit www. bushhillfestival.com.

COAT will raffle a large gift basket valued at more than $200. Tickets are $5 each or three for $10. Proceeds will benefit COAT programs. T-shirts with the COAT logo will be sold and literature will be available for those who need assistance or wish to volunteer or donate to COAT. The Festival is not only utilized by nonprofits for fundraising and to inform, but also by churches to carry a message.

Sometimes, the message is right under your nose. Bush Hill visitors have long appreciated the smells and flavor of food prepared by Sunday school classes from Archdale Friends Meeting. The class sells biscuits in front of the meeting house, and those who want a sweet treat may purchase cookies, brownies and other goodies.

Archdale United Methodist Church will hold its semiannual Take Two children’s consignment sale during the festival weekend (times are in the church news on page 5). The church is a small walk away at the corner of Main and Petty streets.

Here’s a list of nonprofits, churches and other organizations who plan to hold fundraisers or inform festivalgoers of their mission.

CAC to introduce ‘Blooming Success’ at Bush Hill Archdale’s Community Appearance Commission will use its booth to inform festivalgoers about some of its programs and events, said Zeb Holden, code enforcement officer for Archdale, liason for the CAC and a member of the Festival Committee.

“They will focus on spreading the word about the holiday yard of the month and the Green Thumb awards, its annual meeting on Oct. 5 and a new program called ‘Blooming Success’,” said Holden.

The Blooming Success program will seek businesses on Main Street who are willing to keep up a pair of flower pots at their entrance that the CAC will provide.

Holden believes that the Festival is an excellent venue for the CAC. “It grants a relatively unknown citizen board the chance to meet face to face with area residents and demonstrate their efforts at keeping our community attractive and lively,” he said.

Continued from front

Chamber and its volunteers can focus on creating an event that brings 25,000 people to this community to celebrate the heritage of Archdale,” the Chamber’s awards committee said.

However, this year the city is going a step further. When the Festival committee decided to increase its recycling to reduce its footprint, the city offered its assistance.

“The city of Archdale helped facilitate the involvement of Waste Management at this year’s Festival,” said Nelson.

Not only will this year’s Festival include recycling bins for festivalgoers, Waste Management will be up large recycling bins in the parking lot of Archdale Archdale Chief Friends MeetDarrell Gibbs ing.

Nelson

Archdale’s Public Works Department assists with logistics prior to the Festival and during the event itself. said the Festival committee encourages everyone, not just festivalgoers, to drop off their recyclables — for free.

The recycling bins will be available during the Festival, from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Saturday.

Archdale’s Community Appearance Commission will carry their message to the citizens with a booth.

Members of the city’s Public Works Department pick up garbage throughout the day.

The city also supports another Festival endeavor. As part of the Festival’s 25th anniversary celebration, the Bush Hill Committee will bury a time capsule, sponsored by KI-High Point, with Festival memorabilia. Archdale will donate space at Creekside Park to bury the time capsule, which will include a proclamation from the city.

Creekside Park was selected because its land is protected.

“The support we receive from the city goes far beyond the basics,” Nelson added. “Their backing adds to our general sense of well-being, and there’s moral support from person to person.”

Chief Gibbs agrees. “I hope this year’s fall festival is as enjoyable and successful as in years past.”

The Warriors started off with a bang when linebacker Andrew Bazen recovered a fumble and ran into the end zone, bringing the score to 6-0. The Wildcats answered with a march downfield, capping the drive with a quarterback sneak by Jordan Hughes to tie the score at 6-6 at the end of the first quarter.

In the second quarter Wheatmore scored again off a 3-yard touchdown run by Josh Rickert, who showed strength and con-

Your child’s success depends on you L

earning to read begins long before a child enters school. In fact, early literacy skills begin at birth.

They begin when a mom talks to her baby; when a dad points to an object and says its name; when a caregiver sings a song; and when parents snuggle with their child while reading a book. In short, early literacy skills begin in everyday interaction between loving adults and children.

So, as a parent, you may wonder what you can do with your child to develop a love of reading at a young age.

Here are some tips for you and your child to enjoy reading together.

Choose books that are predictable, repetitive or encourage sound and movement.

Encourage your toddler to make sounds and movement to describe the story. Toddlers take comfort in routine and repetition.

Try to find a consistent time and place to share books.

Keep a basket of books in a place where your toddler can reach to pick out their own books to look at or read with you whenever they choose.

Preschoolers Offer a variety of books. Include books that incorporate counting, alphabet and ani-

Infants Snuggle up with your baby. The baby will feel secure from being close and hearing your voice.

It is OK to let your baby touch, hold and even chew the book. Expect that they will probably want to teethe on the books.

Choose books with simple, clear pictures. Babies like faces and bold pictures.

Rhymes, songs and simple soothing text appeal to babies.

Be patient. They might not pay attention but they are hearing the words and your voice.

Mason Johnson displays a book he Toddlers received at the Partnership’s ‘RaisToddlers love book sharing, even if they ing a Reader Blue Bag’ event at My Circle of Friends. do not sit still for long.

mals. Your preschooler may want to “read” to you and that’s great. Let them read (or tell) the story. Preschoolers love stories about friends and family.

School-age Remember it is important to continue to read with your child even after they begin reading on their own. Reading aloud with older children will allow them to read more difficult books and help them to further develop their vocabulary.

Continue to ask older children questions about the story to ensure that they understand what they are reading.

Set aside time each day for your schoolage child to read.

Make time to read. It is important that you set a goal to read with your child every day. This small investment will pay off in a big way.

A recently published international study tells us that “children raised in homes with many books gained the equivalent of three more years of schooling than children from bookless homes.”

Having books in the home has proven to be more important than even having university-educated, professional parents.

There are many excellent resources available to families in Archdale-Trinity to support reading. The Archdale Public Library offers a wide selection of books for

Birthdays celebrated and bike ride planned I

t’s not every day you get to wish someone a happy 101st birthday, but on July 8, Mr. Gurney Peace celebrated his with friends and family.

As always he had a big smile on his face and a harmonica in hand to play a few tunes for everyone. Gurney is like that big pink rabbit, his battery never runs out.

Gurney, we hope you have a great many more to celebrate.

It isn’t often I get to go to two birthday parties in one month, but I was invited to Molly Jones’s surprise party. She received some of those big glasses from the Dollar Tree as well as some dice to hang in her car.

Isn’t she lucky!

It has been five years since the veteran’s memorial was first mentioned and now it looks like its going to become a reality.

The day after Memorial Day, I was hav-

ing breakfast at BBQ Joes, where I ran into Kim Cates, who owns Domino’s Pizza in Hillsville. She and her motorcycle buddies were on their way to Myrtle Beach. I asked her if they ever did a ride for charity. Yes, she said.

I showed her a photo of the original memorial which was erected in Trinity and dedicated in 1943.

The Unknown Scout sets tone for 2010 Jamboree

M

y Jamboree Troop 1723 and I gathered around the buses as we loaded our equipment to begin our journey to the 2010 National Scout Jamboree.

We spent more than six hours on a bus from Greensboro to arrive at Fort A.P. Hill, Va., where the Jamboree has been held since 1981.

This year’s Jamboree ran from July 26 through Aug. 4.

From the moment of our arrival at our campsite on base, a process began that turned a bare field of grass into a “tent city.”

As Scouts of all ages arrived at the Jamboree, we immediately began by putting up our tents of all shapes and sizes.

Once all of the tents were put up we began construction of our camp gateways,

which can be anything that you can imagine. There have been gateways that range from images of animals to heavy machinery to just simple wooden structures. After all is said and done, the 2010 National Jamboree became Virginia’s 14th largest city.

The 2010 National Scout Jamboree was the 100-year celebration of Scouting in America. The first jamboree was scheduled to happen in 1935, but was rescheduled to 1937 due to a severe polio epidemic when large crowds were discouraged.

Scouting was originally founded by Sir Robert Baden-Powell in London, England.

It was started by a book that Baden-Powell wrote named “Aids to Scouting for NCOs and Men.” It was written in 1899 while Baden-Powell was under siege at Mafeking during the Boer Wars. Baden-Powell found that the youth in England used this

book as a basis for their Scouting program.

He wrote a series of six books based on the original work that founded the actual British Boy Scouts.

Scouting in America was brought to the U.S. from London, England in 1910

by W.D. Boyce. Boyce found himself lost Hometown in London looking for his hotel and was News assisted by a young boy, who helped him find his way back. Upon arrival at the ho- 2010 Jamboree tel, Boyce offered to give the young boy a reward for his time and services, but the young man would not accept his offer. time opportunity as well as continuing the This “Unknown Scout” only said, “No work of the “Unknown Scout.” thank you sir, I’m a Boy Scout and I’m only doing my good deed for the day.”

This is the first of three articles written by Scouting has been holding ever since. Seth Allred, a member of Boy Scout Troop 25 We were proud to be here at the Jambo- of Archdale Friends Meeting. He volunteered ree on the 100th Anniversary of Scouting in to serve as a news correspondent on behalf America. We were here at a once-in-a-life- of the Jamboree.

hen I think of who inspires me, it’s not someone who is famous, rich and well known.

The people who touch my soul and heart are ordinary people who struggle to make ends meet.

I am especially inspired by people who help those in need. They are the real heroes in this world and their sacrifices deserve recognition and praise.

My mom is one of those people.

She is a highly educated woman and very religious. She struggles on behalf of our family. I have a great respect for her because she motivates me to help others.

In addition to my mom, I find wisdom at Biscuitville. I see a lot of love and greatness in Connie Bennett,

director of operations of Biscuitville Inc., because she encourages others.

I see great parents encouraging their children because they want them to be more successful. What parents show their children is returned to them. Children also inspire us because they are the most precious gift from God. We have to respect our parents because they struggle for us to make our future bright.

If we believe in God, we have to show greatness and that only becomes possible when we think of others. If you want to see God, look inside your heart or into the heart of a parent, teacher or mentor who encourages us to be more successful in life.

If we read our Holy Book every day, then we can teach greatness to others.

off the membranes. They are also cleaned with chemicals about once a month, If needed, the plant can skip the membrane system and divert water directly to the next stage.

Stage 4 uses granular activated carbon, which absorbs organic compounds. McGougan compared the carbon to water filters that people purchase to use in their homes.

Parts of the water treatment system are already in testing. The membranes were being installed earlier this month and should be operating now. Water has been sent to High Point to test their pumps, and the storage tanks at N.C. 62 and at Holly Ridge have been filled to get ready for tests.

PTRWA Director John Kime said that water that is used for testing equipment gets dechlorinated before going back into the lake.

According to McGougan, required documentation was sent to the Department of Natural Resources last week, and the plant awaits state certification before delivering water to customers.

There won’t be any big switch to throw to suddenly start delivering 12 million gallons per day to all of PTRWA’s customers — parts of the system will come on at a time.

McGougan estimates about 30 days from the first customer getting service until water runs at full capacity.

The city and county teams have to have their pump stations and pipes ready and they’ll have to disinfect their equipment at the right time. They are all coordinating with plant personnel. “They have to work in harmony,” Mc-

Gougan said. “All that cooperation’s going very well.”

Lewis Dorsett, Board member and Archdale city councilman, expects Archdale to start receiving water from the plant by mid-September. He pointed out that Archdale may experience minor problems at first, such as leaks, when the direction of water flow is reversed.

In other business, the PTRWA Board held a moment of silence to remember former Board member Talton Harrison.

Alpha Academy receives four-star rating A

lpha Academy, on Archdale Road in Trinity, recently received a four-star rating from the state’s Division of Child Development.

According to the Randolph County Partnership for Children, the child-care center, led by Director Melissa Shields, has worked diligently to increase its rating from three to four stars.

The Partnership presented the center a plaque in recognition of this achievement. This achievement brings the total of four- or five-star rated centers in the ArchdaleTrinity area to seven.

Alpha Academy staff members from left are Stephany Napier, Luke Turgeon, Director Melissa Shields, Brittany Kennedy, Kristina Fields, Tabatha Turgeon, Brittany Proctor and Chantel Johnson.

Randolph County Schools to keep graduation project N

orth Carolina has dropped the state mandate for graduation projects, but Randolph County Schools recently chose to keep the projects as a local requirement.

BY DEBBIE HIGHTOWER Randolph County School board member Becky Coltrane said that the school board studied the projects for two months prior to the June vote to keep them as a requirement. “We decided to keep them locally because we piloted that program,� said Coltrane. “Our kids did benefit a lot from their senior projects. We decided that we would go back to the Randolph County procedure.�

Graduation projects have been a state requirement since 2002.

During the 2009-2010 school year, graduation project requirements in North Carolina were in flux while the North Carolina Joint Legislative Education Oversight Committee studied the projects to make a determination whether to keep them or not.

As of July 1, 2009, the North Carolina Joint Legislative Education Oversight Committee made their decision

— drop the statewide requirement.

However, Randolph County students must complete the four Ps — research paper, project, portfolio and presentation — before they can receive their diploma.

Due to state guidelines, high school juniors completed their research paper during their English classes. “Our seniors this year will do a project, portfolio and presentation,� said Trinity High School Assistant Principal Lynn DiFoggio.

Seniors will be on a different schedule for 2010-2011, when all four requirements will be completed during the senior year.

This year’s juniors will do a research paper, but it won’t involve their graduation project.

This will be the first year for graduation projects at Wheatmore High School, which had no senior class when it opened during the 2009-2010 school year.

Kathy Saunders, WHS graduation project coordinator, doesn’t believe that there will be any significant differences in the requirements between the two schools. “Although the dynamics at THS

Big WheelÂŽ race seeks contestants The fifth annual Big WheelÂŽ race, sponsored by Allred Realtors, is totally free at ghe Bush Hill Bash set for 6 p.m. Friday, Sept. 10, on Bonnie Place.

The race, open to kids ages 3 to 6 in the parking lot of Bank of North Carolina at the corner of Bonnie Place and N.C. 62. The event is open to the first 300 kids to register.

Application forms are available at www.bushhillfestival.com or at Allred & Co. Realtors at 4704 Archdale Road, on the corner of Don Avenue and Archdale Road.

Completed forms should be taken to the Allred & Co. Realtors.

WHS testing deadline Sept. 15 Wheatmore High School students who wish to take the preliminary SAT or the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test must sign up by Sept. 15. The test is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 16.

The test will be administered in the cafeteria.

The test is free, but those who sign up and fail to show will have to pay.

For questions or to sign up, contact Karen Hawkins at WHS at 476-1500.

and WHS may dictate some differences, overall we will be very similar in the way the graduation project is carried out,� she said.

Teachers, parents and community members volunteer as judges. Approximately 92 judges helped out during THS senior project presentations last semester, said DiFoggio.

Saunders said that this year the two schools staggered their presentation nights so that some of the judges could volunteer at both schools.

Trinity High School seniors will do their presentations Dec. 9 for the fall semester and May 12 in the spring.

Wheatmore presentation dates are Dec. 7 and May 10.

Erin Bass, graduation project coordinator for Trinity High School, is glad that Randolph County decided to keep the requirement. “I feel that, in its current state, the project requires students to look at how they manage their time and how they interact with professional adults through various mediums,� she said. “It also helps them to gain responsibility and confidence in their own abilities. In the end, as with all experiences in life, they reap what they sow.�

School menus Aug. 30 - Sept. 3 Fresh fruit and milk are available daily. Choose one entree and two vegetables/ fruits.

MONDAY — Cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato and pickles, hoagie with lettuce, tomato and pickles, potato wedges, baked beans, broccoli and carrot cup with ranch, applesauce.

‘Meat’ Your Pioneer Neighbors ...

A chopped sirloin meal for $2.99?

It’s 1987 again at the Pioneer Photo by Debbie Hightower

Mike and Kathy Liner get a laugh at the August 1987 edition of the NEWS. From left, Mark Schindelholz of IFH, and Gail Thigpen and Leonel Hernandez, assistant managers, helped plan Pioneer Days.

I

n the summer of 1987, Main Street Archdale was a hot mess, as bulldozers pushed red dirt to widen it from two lanes to four lanes. Byrd’s Curb Market was about to close its doors.

Archdale Commons and Southside Hardware opened. Milk was $1.79 a gallon at Lowes Foods.

BY DEBBIE HIGHTOWER In the Aug. 6, 1987 edition of the NEWS, the headline read: “New Eatery Opens Here.”

The headline on this page reads: A chopped sirloin meal for $2.99? It’s 1987 again at the Pioneer.”

During the in-between years, the restaurant has been host to politicians, receptions, civic meetings, reunions, prayers of thanksgiving, romance and more.

If walls could talk ...

It was the middle of the rush hour and a young man walked up to Kathy Liner — she and her husband Mike owned the restaurant — and asked if he could use the microphone. The young man called the name of his girlfriend and asked the question: Will you marry me?

Luckily, she said yes and restaurant patrons applauded. Kathy grins as she tells the story — the same grin that greets all who come to the Pioneer.

For Mike, he relishes the moments when the lights go out in the freezer. School kids tour the meat locker and somehow the lights go out. Mike’s always the first one to yell. Then the kids yell “No. Stop. Do it again.”

They overhear parents telling kids, “That’s enough ice cream.”

The restaurant has been host to Gov. Jim Martin, Bob Dole and his senate campaign staff, bull riders from Jerome Davis events, and former employees of Hatteras Yachts and Alma Desk.

Duke Energy workers still frequent the restaurant because they remember the

hospitality of food and warmth when the power was off for 14 days in Archdale.

It’s the place where life happens ... and for this Kathy and Mike are grateful, so grateful that they want to show their appreciation to their patrons who have been so loyal, even through a 2003 fire that destroyed the original restaurant.

“We just want to say thank you to the people who have supported us all these years,” said Mike.

The “road construction special,” minus the red dirt, will be offered Aug. 30 through Sept. 1.

A one-trip salad bar will be $3.99. The full lunch buffet will be $4.99 and dinner buffet $6.99. A chopped sirloin with baked potato and yeast roll will be $2.99. The price for a 12-ounce rib-eye steak, baked potato and roll is set at $9.99.

While the prices will be offered for three days, a special thank-you event is set for 11 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 31.

Mike plans to honor Bill Kinley, the last remaining councilman who served on Archdale’s first city council and a man who helped his city find relief from failing septic systems and bad water.

Other dignitaries scheduled to come for the lunch include Archdale Mayor Bert Lance-Stone, U.S. Congressman Howard Coble and N.C. Sen. Jerry Tillman.

Mike has invited some folks who are part of Pioneer’s history — past partner Gary Hill, Irv Cohen of Allstate Restaurant Equipment and Colon Pugh of Superior Sign Co., the company which made the Pioneer sign.

It’s about giving back to the community, Mike said. Throughout the years, the restaurant has not only stayed afloat, but thrived.

“Business is booming,” said Kathy.

Mike and Kathy are thrilled that people choose to eat at the Pioneer.

“People who live here, people who drive here from other places and people who are just passing through ... they are all coming to eat at the Pioneer,” Mike said.

“We just want to say thank you.”

Pioneer Days will recognize past and current leaders and acknowledge some of those who have helped to make the Pioneer Family Restaurant one of Archdale’s most successful businesses. In the top photo, scanned from the Aug. 6, 1987 edition of the NEWS, from left, are Billy Walker, Mike Liner and Jackie Walker. The Walkers developed the property and Liner operated the restaurant. In the photo right, Mike looks through the years of photographs and memorabilia.

Photo by Debbie Hightwer

The original restaurant, built in 1987, was destroyed by fire in 2003. The restaurant was rebuilt, bigger, in the spot now occupied by the tractor-trailers in the photo left. The aerial shot was taken by Mike Liner’s father.

Photos submitted

School children visiting the restaurant brought a few laughs along the years. In the top photo, a youngster draws his experience in the freezer while Clay Rice writes a thank-you letter: Dear Mike and Kathy, I enjoyed breakfast at the Pioneer. I like the freezer. It was fun.

Thank you for letting us come.

Property left in a vehicle should be concealed and the vehicle secured.

In some cases the windows of some locked vehicles were broken because valuables such as a radar detector, global positioning systems, laptops and cell phones were visible.

Seven of the reports of vehicle break-ins occurred last week.

According to the proposed guidelines, curbside service will be mandatory for all residents except those living on private roads. However, the city will, on a case-bycase basis, consider providing collection on private roads if the owner of the road signs a hold-harmless agreement.

The service will cost residents approximately $15 per month. This figure is based on calculations made in 2009.

Billing will be through Davidson Water. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They currently bill our sewer customers,â&#x20AC;? Bailie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the most cost effective billing method.â&#x20AC;?

The city will seek grant funding to purchase toters for recyclables and garbage.

Target date for the curbside trash and recycling to begin is January 2011.
