School tax council faces decision on tuition Photo by Michael Hill
Bush Hill party! Games, rides, food ... it all converged into the Bush Hill Heritage Festival held Friday and Saturday, Sept. 10-11. Beverly Nelson, president of the Archdale-Trinity Chamber of Commerce, which organizes the festival, said the 25th celebration boasted the highest attendance yet. In the opening ceremony, the Randolph County Sheriff’s honor guard stood in remembrance of 9/11. In the bottom left photo, Emily Noell takes a spin in the children’s area.

T
he Archdale-Trinity Tax Advisory Council wants to know what taxpayers think about the current policy that exempts the tuition of $384 for students who live out of district but have relatives employed in Archdale-Trinity schools. BY DEBBIE HIGHTOWER “We have 90 students who attend the A-T district from outside, but 82 of those are tuition-free,” said Chairman John Cable. That calculates into more than $30,000. The Tax Advisory Council administers a $2 million budget derived from a supplementary tax levied at 9 cents per $100 valuation in the Archdale-Trinity area. Council members and principals from area schools discussed a possible policy change at the council’s Sept. 8 meeting held at Archdale-Trinity Middle School. Cable said he has had multiple calls about the issue. “One of the things that keeps rearing its head is students coming into the tax district,” said Cable. Council member Charles Eurillo said he has received numerous phone calls and knocks on his door regarding the subject. The $384 tuition rate, set by the Randolph County Board of Education, offsets monies paid by taxpayers who live in the Archdale-Trinity attendance area. The rate is determined by dividing the taxes collected by the number of students in the Archdale-Trinity attendance area. Assessing school staff members a tuition amount would have a negative impact on morale, said Hopewell Elementary School Principal Sharon Harper. “Educators in the system are in their second year of no pay increases,” she said. “I’ve always felt that (fee waivers) was a perk we were able to give them. It is the reduction in employee benefits that will have a negative impact on staff morale. “Some staff will not feel valued as employees because of this change. I do believe that some of Hopewell’s employees may choose to leave their children in their home district and then they may eventually select to move themselves to teach in their home district.” Trindale Elementary School Principal Dr. Terry Burgin said she would rather get less per-pupil allotment than charge school staff members a tuition. Currently, the Tax Council allots $190 per pupil at each school. SEE TUITION ON PAGE 4

Kim and Dilbert Hinshaw of Cedar Square were among the thousands of participants at the Pink Heals cancer awareness event held
While neither woman has had breast cancer, both have watched friends and loved ones fight — and sometimes lose — their battle with the disease. What could they, two working moms with young children and hectic lives, do to help? The answer is the 60-mile Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure walk. It will be held Oct. 22-24 in Atlanta, Ga. Deborah and Erin, also known as Team Tough Enough, intend to be there — and they intend to walk every single mile. “After lots and lots of soul searching, we chose Tough Enough as our team name,” said Deborah. “Because we’re tough enough to do this.” She is walking for her friend Michelle Burchette. The two first met while working together at High Point Gastroenterology. “I’ve wanted to do the three-day walk since I was in college, but never had the opportunity,” Deborah explained. “When Michelle got sick again, I decided this year was it — I was going to do this walk come hell or high water.” She registered and started raising money after Michelle, who had fought breast cancer before, had a recurrence in January. Sadly, Michelle would not live to see Deborah walk for her — she lost her 3½-year battle with breast cancer in
Deborah Phillips, left, and Erin Whittington February. “After that, I felt even more motivated to walk every single mile,” Deborah said. “Michelle never stopped smiling through her pain, even on her hardest of days. So, I will take on this challenge with a smile on my face, knowing every step I take is one step closer to a cure.” Erin’s motivation is no less strong. She is walking for Jerri McDowell, the mother of her daughter’s friend, who is currently battling breast cancer. SEE WALK ON PAGE 12

Wheatmore prepares for East Davidson
T
he Wheatmore Warriors will face East Davidson this Friday night at home. STAFF REPORTS
Wheatmore played a tough game last week against East Montgomery High School in Biscoe. Garrett Rains completed a pass to Dalton Albertson to put the Warriors on the board first at 0-6. The Eagles came back in the second quarter with two runs to bring the score to 13-6. East Montgomery kept up their momentum in the third with two more runs. But Wheatmore didn’t give up. Rains pushed through for a 1-yard run, followed by a
pass to Bryant Everhart for the PAT. The final score was 26-14, which brings the Warriors to 1-3. “We again played very hard,” said Head Football Coach Eugene Everhart. “We were concerned with their speed and bigplay capability going into the game and we gave up too many big plays. “We showed improvement in our passing game as we protected, threw and caught the ball better. Our players are continuing to improve each week,” Everhart added. Rains led the Warriors’ passing game with 117 yards and Josh Rickert led the ground game with 86 yards.

T
rinity High School’s football team travels to Asheboro Friday night to attempt to break their current record of 0-4. STAFF REPORTS
Despite Trinity’s efforts, Surry Central broke their own zero record in last week’s nonconference game. The Bulldogs and the Golden Eagles held each other back in the first quarter. Everything heated up when both teams scored
twice in the second. Rhyne Kivett completed a pass to Daniel Robbins for the touchdown and Nathan Willett kicked for the extra point. After the Eagles scored, Bulldog Colin Stout ran in for another touchdown. Surry answered right back with a run and a field goal, and the score going into the locker room stood at 17-13. Surry Central dominated the third quarter, but Trinity cut their lead as Kivett threw a 23-yard pass to Willett for a touchdown. The final score was 36-19.
Panthers win at Ragsdale

BY TOM MCGEE Archdale-Trinity Panthers
The Archdale-Trinity Panthers are the first football team in area history to win a football game at Ragsdale High School — at any age level. The Panthers won a thriller 19-13. The Ragsdale area sponsors three youth teams and are especially hard to beat at their home field where Ragsdale always seems to be the team to beat. “We played our hearts out,” said Head Coach Jamie Stevens. “We really came out and played as a team on both sides of the ball. We had some kids that never gave up today. There were some times when they could have hung their head — when a touchdown was called a touchback and
Ragsdale got the ball instead of us getting a score, they really dug in on defense and stopped Ragsdale’s offense. At that point we had to score to win the game.” The Panthers rolled up more than 200 yards of offense. The Panthers were led on defense by a great team effort. Jake Grantham, Tanner McGee and Blake Reddick had more than 10 tackles each. Tanner Ward and Christian Laughlin also had outstanding games on defense. Blake Reddick and Jake Grantham each scored touchdowns and Tanner McGee ran in an extra point. The game-winning touchdown came with just 1 minute and 29 seconds left on the clock. Tanner McGee passed to Jake Grantham, who simply outran everyone for a 50-yard touchdown and the game-winning score.

uil Rand Youth Soccer’s 11-and-under girls challenge team, the Storm, opened the season with a road win over Jamestown on Saturday before losing a tough home match against their Rural Hall opponent.
On Saturday, GRYSA fell behind 2-0 by halftime but stormed back in the second half to score 6 unanswered goals and cruise to a 6-2 win over the Jammers Blue. Logan Parry led the offensive blitz with 3 goals, followed by 2 from Reese O’Brien and a single from Lauren Welborn, her first career goal. Taylor Davis had two assists while Emma Baynard, Priscilla McCroskey, Sarah Moran and Caitlin Swiggett recorded an assist each. Taylor’s assists came from the goalkeeper position. She shut out Jamestown in the second half in addition to providing the offensive spark with her assists. On defense, the Storm
The Blue opened scoring in the first half when it took advantage of a defensive lapse by the Rage and sailed a shot into the goal. But the Rage answered just before halftime when Luke Johnson took a pass on the right side of the field and hit a low, hard shot past the Blue goalkeeper. The visitors took the lead again in the second half when a Blue player knocked a loose ball in front of the goal into the net with less than 10 minutes in the contest. That seemed to spark the Rage to life, as they peppered the goal with shot after shot during the last seven minutes, led by Leo Dominguez. The Blue team was able to stop or deflect each offensive attack before Ryan Smith struck in the final minute, thanks to an assist from Jack McCroskey. Jake Clodfelter made 12 saves in goal as he manned the net the entire game for the Rage. Kevin Dominguez, Evan Somero and Aidan Shean anchored the Rage’s de-

emember the old commercial, ‘Who made the salad?’ Tuckertown Reservoir, situated between High Rock and Badin Lake, has enough aquatic weeds and other green stuff in it to embarrass even the Pioneer Family Restaurant’s impressive salad bar. Since most of the other Piedmont lakes do not have aquatic weeds, fishermen around here are not overly fond of fishing them. No one knows quite how they got there. They grunge up traditional lures and are an all-around nuisance — until you figure out how to catch fish out of them, because they do hide fish. Big Mike Hedgecock nailed a doubledouble Saturday, Sept. 4, at Tuckertown. It was his second win in a row, with a second five-fish double-digit weight of 17.37
pounds. Your author finished in second, with five fish at 14.56 pounds and big fish of the tournament at 5.12 pounds. Super Jamie Denison rounded out the top three with four fish weighing 11.97. Big Mike was tight-lipped as usual about his tools, but all of mine came on topwater lures even in the middle of the day. Jamie claims he only had one fish going into the last hour of the tournament but did not divulge what he eventually dredged them out with. It’s a good example of how good fishermen can come through in a clutch. With two tournaments left in the season, the annual races continue to get gritty. In the pounds race, the last two doubledigit sacks put Big Mike ahead of Super Jamie by about 3.5 pounds. Bill Frazier and Clayton Proctor continue to dance back and forth in third and fourth places,

his year’s Bush Hill Bash, part of the 25th Bush Hill Heritage Festival, held Sept. 1011, featured a new pastime — CastingKids, an angling competition. A total of 41 youth participated in the event, sponsored by N.C. Bass Anglers Sportsman Society Federation Nation and aided by the Randleman Outdoor Youth Club. The competitors, which represented a wide range of ages, attempted to hit a ringed target on the ground at various distances. Bailey Hollingsworth, the first-place winner, was a real ace who more than doubled the second place score. He landed casts in the bull’s-eye in both the closest and furthest targets. Second place went to Dillon Bare, who had a bull’s-eye as well. Kylie Biggs took third place. The top three scores received a trophy and new Zebco fishing outfit.
with Bill in third this time by only a little more than half a pound. Steady Ed Brady and Vernon Wilson are locked up for fifth and sixth, respectively, separated by less than a half a pound. Points are a little more stable but equally as competitive. Steve Gunter maintains his position in first place for the fifth tournament in a row with Daddy Sam Gunter, his boatmate, right behind him in second. Our most experienced angler, Clayton, takes third in this category flipping yours truly to fourth. Jamie reappears in the Super Six in fifth place, with famous James Lewis rounding it out in sixth. The next Fish Fest for the Archdale Bass Club will be back at High Rock Southmont ramp at 7 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 2. Yep, those days just keep getting shorter and shorter.

To the editor, The family of Cassie Carter would like to thank the people of Trinity Baptist Church who opened their hearts and pocketbooks to help her continue her missions training in Norway. On Sept. 1, Trinity Baptist hosted a delicious barbecue and chicken dinner with all the trimmings. Those who enjoyed the meal put a donation into a basket placed on a table inside the door. Members and friends gave a total of $1,145. That was a much-needed boost to her goal of $8,000 to cover schooling and other expenses for the next nine months. Thanks to the youth who served us and to all those who worked so hard to arrange this — including Don Payne and Mabel and Bob Wilder. We are truly blessed to have these servants of God in our community. Please remember Cassie in your prayers. She left Sept. 6 to return to Norway. Cassie still needs support money. Contributions may be mailed to her home address, 3863 Fox Meadow Road, Trinity, N.C. 27370. Her mother handles her account. Her blog is www.mamacasss@ blogspot.com. Opal Y. DeHart Archdale
Letter to the editor
Thank you! The name of Daron Skeen captured the hearts of so many as they passed by the booth of the ArchdaleTrinity News at the Bush Hill Heritage Festival. In Daron’s memory, the NEWS featured Carolina Donor Services. It was Daron’s final wish that people, especially those in his community, become organ donors. You asked questions and you reaffirmed Daron’s faith that people will do what they can to help others. To learn more, visit carolinadonorservices.org.
Volunteers matter. The 25th annual Bush Hill Heritage Festival would not have evolved as one of the Top 20 September festivals in the Southeast without the commitment of nearly 100 volunteers. From marking the streets and hauling trash to vendor welcome packets and on-the-street help, volunteers make this event one of the community’s most welcomed traditions. Thank you for helping to make this community one of the best!
Does quality childcare matter? R
ecently, an elected official asked me, ‘Does quality (childcare) mat-
ter?’
As I thought about this question, it occurred to me that the answer means so much more coming from all of the parents who have experienced quality child care firsthand. I would like to hear from you as parents or grandparents. Whether your child or grandchild is currently in a parttime preschool or a full-day child-care center or has been in the past, does quality matter to you? A significant amount of published research emphasizes the importance of positive experiences in the early years of a child’s life. Science has found this to be a time when their brains are rapidly developing and soaking up information that is critical to future success in school and life. Throughout those early years, many
children spend as much or more time with a caregiver than they would attend a fouryear college. Much focus as been placed on the importance of quality child care, providing children a safe and stable atmosphere with educated and attentive teachers and a stimulating learning environment. In the selection of a child care or preschool program, what qualities do you look for? What matters most to you? The number of children in the class? The education and background of the teacher? The qualifications and experience of the director? The types of educational opportunities? The type of equipment and materials available? The health and safety practices of the program? Are there enough different types of programs available to choose from?
Pauline McKee
Does it matter that the child-care center receives visits and assistance from a registered nurse on a regular basis? Does it matter that teachers receive opportunities to increase their education and participate in advanced workshops? Does it matter if they receive a salary bonus for staying at the same center and increasing their level of education in early childhood development? Whether your experience with child care or preschool has been positive or negative, I want to hear from you. If your child is now in grade school, reflect on their preschool experience. What impact did your child’s preschool experience have on preparing him or her for school? E-mail comments regarding your childcare experiences to pmckee@randolphkids.org. I plan to share (anonymously, unless indicated otherwise) the thoughts of
Partnership for Children parents in the coming weeks. Do you have a concern as a parent or a topic you would like to see addressed? Email your ideas, concerns and questions to the same address to see them featured in this weekly column. Pauline A.

Jamboree is ‘awesome’ experience W
hat an awesome experience all of the 45,000 Scouts and Scouters had at the 2010 National Scout Jamboree. We were getting close to the end of this 100th Anniversary event and heading to the closing show. It took us about 90 minutes to file into the arena and even longer for all the people to get seated, but the closing show was worth the wait. The opening was singer Sara Sanchez. The Army parachute team, Black Dagger, made their entrance from 3,500 feet above. There were live video feeds from one end of the country to the other. Then
Mike Rowe, from the television show “Dirty Jobs,” made his grand entrance riding in the bucket of a gigantic Caterpillar™ loader. Everyone cheered as it reached the stage and Rowe “unloaded” directly onto the stage with no steps. Rowe shared his experiences in Scouting as a youth. As a young man, at the age of 11, he was shy and didn’t play any sports. When he tried to speak in front of other people he had a stuttering problem. He was thrust into Scouting by his father. At his first Scout meeting he walked into a game of “swing the thing,” which Rowe said, “was a game invented by an idiot.” He went on

Teacher grant deadline Sept. 20 North Carolina’s electric cooperatives, including EnergyUnited, have earmarked more than $590,000 for the Bright Ideas education grant program. The application deadline is Sept. 20. Grants of up to $2,000 are available to certified North Carolina teachers for innovative classroom-based projects. The Bright Ideas education grant program is the only program in the state exclusively for classroom projects. “We understand the dire need in classrooms across the state of North Carolina and have made education a priority for the last 17 years,” said Wayne Wilkins, CEO of EnergyUnited. “The Bright Ideas program is a reflection
of the electric cooperatives’ commitment to bettering the communities in which we serve and we believe there is no better way to make a difference than by educating our youth.” Since its inception in 1994, the Bright Ideas grant program has awarded more than $7.1 million in grant money to sponsor more than 6,500 projects that benefited more than 1.2 million students. The primary elements of the application process include an explanation of the project and how it will benefit students. The application and several winning project examples can be found on the Bright Ideas website, www.ncbrightideas.com.

to explain that in the game, a tent bag is filled with wet rags and tied to a string. In the game everyone stands in a circle and the bag is swung around from the middle of the circle, last boy standing is declared the winner. Rowe said he went down 30 seconds into the game with a bloody nose. “So, I’ve been there for five minutes and I’ve got a bloody nose,” he recalled. After “swing the thing” they went outside to play another game called British Bulldogs — “another game invented by an idiot” according to Rowe. During British Bulldogs he was accidentally kneed in the mouth and got a fat lip. After the games, the Scouts returned to the meeting area inside, where young Rowe was asked to describe himself to the troop. He began to explain himself with a bloody nose, a fat lip and a stutter. After the meeting, his father picked him up and inquired if he wanted to come back next week. Rowe said probably not, but he came back anyway, week after week. He went on to attend Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico, was inducted into the Order of the Arrow and became an accomplished Eagle Scout. Twenty-one years later, he now appears on “Dirty Jobs.” The band Switchfoot played live for the crowd. The ending for the evening was an extravaganza celebrating the 100th Anniversary of Boy Scouts of America and the finale was an awesome fireworks show.

Seth Allred Hometown News 2010 Jamboree as the lines of buses and semi trucks loaded and left with us and our gear. On the final day of the 2010 National Scout Jamboree, 45,000 scouts left looking back on the past 10 days and pondering what the next 100 years would have in store for Scouting. If the “Unknown Scout” could have only known what the results of his action to “Do a good turn daily” — the Boy Scout motto — would become 100 years later in America, he would be proud. On the long six-hour return trip to Greensboro, I reflected on this once-in-alifetime opportunity. My troop and I became atwitter about what we had done over the past 10 days and what we would do when we arrived home. And I was looking forward to a warm shower, a real bed, air conditioning and a home-cooked meal. Seth Allred, of Boy Scout Troop 25 at Archdale Friends Meeting, volunteered to serve as news correspondent on behalf of the 2010 National Scout Jamboree at Fort A.P. Hill in Virginia.

Vice Chairman Jeremy Godwin suggested that the tuition could be dropped to $190 and a lesser amount charged for additional children. “We are trying to make it simple,” said Cable. “It’s only $190. With foreclosures and everything else, we are losing revenue. If you attend in the A-T district, you have to pay.” John Lawrence Elementary School Principal Aaron Woody believes a charge is reasonable. The Council tabled the discussion. Cable said he hopes for more input from taxpayers and encourages the public to attend the next meeting set for 6 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 20, at Wheatmore High School. In other business, Cable was re-elected as chairman and Godwin as vice chairman.

Bush Hill: Archdale’s biggest party since 1986 I
f you missed the 25th Bush Hill Heritage Festival last weekend, you missed the biggest birthday party ever in Archdale.
BY ELIZABETH SAUNDERS About 25,000 people joined the celebration on Saturday. Even with the threat of rain, a steady stream of people thronged the streets throughout the day, browsing the vendors’ booths, catching up with neighbors and enjoying the food — from kettle corn to roasted corn, and from funnel cakes to Cherokee fry bread. To celebrate the 25th Festival, this year’s events included a special Friday Night Bush Hill Bash. Activities included Big Wheel races for the younger crowd, a bicycle rodeo and a CastingKids fishing competition. “The children’s area was a huge success,” said Beverly Nelson, president of the Archdale-Trinity Chamber of
Commerce. The adults got comfortable in their lawn chairs on Bonnie Place and enjoyed the rockin’ sounds of Nash Vegas, sponsored by the Archdale-Trinity Merchants Alliance. Their kids enjoyed the safety of the blocked-off streets to dance to the music or just run around. Many of the shops and Messiah Too! stayed open to take advantage of the increased traffic. Nelson heard people comment that they loved the band and the location, where they could shop, go in and grab a cup of coffee, a sweet treat or even a meal. “They liked that downtown feel and that sense of community,” she said. “Of course, the weather was absolutely perfect.” Saturday brought even more people out, some of them showing up before the Festival even started. The parade, including the 2009 Little Miss Bush Hill winners and the combined marching bands of Wheatmore and Trinity high
schools, wound up at the Main Stage prior to the opening ceremony. The co-chairmen of the Festival committee, Joan Rotramel and Kim Cates, and the chairman of the first Festival in 1986, Kathy Stuart, were recognized. After many years as a festivalgoer, Cates got to see the Festival from a new perspective as co-chairman. “It was eye-opening,” she said. People don’t normally see the logistics and safety aspects of throwing a neighborhood party for 25,000. At 5:30 a.m. Saturday morning, she saw how the chamber staff had their crates of supplies, alphabetized lists and everything they needed to make the day run smoothly. “It’s organized chaos!” Cates laughed. “I can’t speak enough about how hard those people work,” she said. “They definitely have it down to a science.” Cates added that the Festival wouldn’t be possible without the volunteers, about 60 this year.

Attorney General goes after phony locksmiths
P
hony locksmiths who used bait-and-switch tactics to rip off locked-out North Carolinians are permanently banned from business in the state, said Attorney General Roy Cooper. STAFF REPORTS
Wake County Superior Court Judge Robert Hobgood agreed with Cooper’s request to enter a permanent injunction and judgment against several locksmith companies and their owners. The court order bars the defendants, their employees, contractors and successors from offering or performing any locksmith services in North Carolina. Named as defendants in the lawsuit are the following: • 704 Locksmith Inc. of Charlotte, which does business in the Triangle area under several names including Raleigh Locksmith, Durham Locksmith, Apex Locksmith and Smithfield Locksmith. • NC Charlotte Locksmith, which does business throughout central and western North Carolina using a variety of names such as Charlotte Locksmith, Concord Locksmith, Hickory Locksmith and Shelby Locksmith. • Anna Konevsky of Charlotte, president of 704 Locksmith and NC Charlotte Locksmith. • Locksmith Services, Inc. of Charlotte, which also operates as Cary Locksmith and Atlantis Locksmith. • Tamir Avraham of Charlotte, president of Locksmith Services
Inc. Under the judgments issued by the court, the defendants have been ordered to pay a total of $1,245,000. Avraham, 704 Locksmith, Inc. and Locksmith Services, Inc. each owe $395,000 in civil penalties, $5,000 each per week for every week they operated illegally in North Carolina. Konevsky owes $60,000 in civil penalties, $5,000 per week for each week she illegally did business in the state. Under state law, any civil penalties collected in the case will go to support the public schools. According to the Attorney General’s investigation, the defendants do not actually employ any licensed locksmiths, but the companies have advertised and performed locksmith services anyway. The defendants have advertised online and in the yellow pages using names, telephone numbers and addresses that make their companies appear to be local. As alleged in the complaint filed by Cooper’s office, North Carolina consumers have called these companies looking for a local locksmith who could let them into their home, business or car. Consumers who complained about the defendant say they were quoted one price on the phone and then charged a much higher price by the locksmith who showed up to do the work. The defendants then usually demanded payment in cash, refusing to let consumers pay by credit card. “Nobody likes to be locked out, but it’s even worse if the company
you call for help rips you off,” Cooper said. “To avoid scams, do your homework to find a legitimate, licensed locksmith.” To avoid falling victim to similar scams, Cooper recommends the following tips: • Whenever possible, check out a business before you do business with them by calling the Attorney General’s Office and the Better Business Bureau. • Locksmiths are required by law to be licensed. Before someone does work for you, ask if they’re licensed and write down their license number. Contact the N.C. Locksmith Licensing Board at 1-919-838-8782 to check out a locksmith or report an unlicensed one. • A locksmith who arrives on the scene should be wearing an identification tag issued by the Locksmith Licensing Board. If the locksmith isn’t wearing the ID, don’t do business with him or her. • Get a price quote in writing before you agree to any work. • For services you may need in an emergency, such as a locksmith or plumber, find a good one before an emergency happens. Ask family and friends for recommendations and check them out. Then save their contact information so you’ll have it when you need it. Consumers can call the Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Division at 1-877-5-NOSCAM to check out a company or file a complaint.
