HIGH POINT – Riding the school bus is probably the safest way for students to get to school, but it’s a little more expensive and other rides may be illegal. So far this year, school officials could save as much as $1 million from a revised tiered bus schedule. There could be more savings, however, by hiring vendors or providing student passes for city buses. GCS

VICTIM OF THE ECONOMY Thomasville ABC Board closes National Highway branch BY CHANEL DAVIS ENTERPRISE STAFF WRITER
THOMASVILLE – The recent economy has hit several businesses hard, and ABC stores are no different. Thomasville ABC Board closed the doors of its National Highway location on Sept. 17, citing that the store was not bringing enough money to keep that particular location open. The only other ABC store in Thomasville, at 1033 Randolph St., will now be the new home of the ABC board. “Throughout the last several years, we have been able to see that the traffic has moved to the other end of town,” said Leigh Ann Lowe, general manager and board member. “We have seen a noticeable shift in our sales coming to the
Randolph Street location. It just made common sense to come down to this location. There is more traffic with the Walmart, gas stations and more restaurants on this side of town.” The retail sales at the National Highway location had flattened and mixed beverage sales had decreased. The board was spending $3,600 a month and $43,200 a year to lease the site. With the sales decrease and other businesses in the area shutting down, it was easy to make a decision, Lowe said. “What we have been doing for awhile has been to take the expenses into consideration compared to our revenues,” Lowe said. “Even if we lost some of the revenues, with the expenses that we cut we would still come out better with one location.” The ABC board returned its 3 percent distribution of $57,000 to the city at the end of the last fiscal year. The return to the city won’t be as much with the closing of National Highway store. “The amount that they get is based off of our sales,” Lowe said. “The amount

does fluctuate. The return will not be half, but we knew we would lose some of the sales. In May, we projected that we would lose about 20 percent of the sales. The amount the city gets will decrease somewhat just because the amount of our sales will decrease.” Lowe said she does not think the business will suffer because of the move and
GUILFORD COUNTY – Paying for more new county school district buildings and improvements could be a distant dream in a stagnant economy. For now, the Guilford County Board of Education is working to finish projects on a $457 million list voters approved in 2008. Another $1.2 billion of needs, outlined in a 10-year Facilities Master Plan, may be too much for voters and taxpayers to swallow. “Our needs continue to grow,” Andy LaRowe, district chief of
operations, told school board members during a retreat last month. “Because the economy may be bad, a lot of Guilford County people do Schools 10-year not want to Master Plan talk about it ■■■ now.” V o t e r s have approved three construction bond programs totaling $957 million since 2000. “We have more construction on the ground now than ever before,” LaRowe said. “We have met capacity needs, but now we need to look at school renovations in High Point and Greensboro.”

Thomasville’s one remaining ABC store is located at 1033 Randolph St. in Southgate Shopping Center. that customers from that area willingly will travel to the Randolph Street store. “We are going to miss out on some customers, but there are a lot of loyal customers that will come to this location. We have seen customers from that area come to the Randolph Street location,” Lowe said. “A lot of our mixed-beverage customers are down this way
because of the restaurants. I feel that we will have an opportunity here (Randolph Street) to pick up more traffic than normal.” Lowe said it will take to the end of October or November to see how closing the National Highway location has truly impacted them. cdavis@hpe.com | 888-3657

“We need to prioritize these new projects,” said board member Darlene Garrett. “We can’t put all of them on hold until there is another bond referendum.” Other funding sources include contributions from county government and federal financing. But county funding for maintenance and repairs has dropped in recent years from $11.5 million in 2004 to $3.2 million in 2010. The district spent $2.5 million, most of its available funding in 2010, to complete emergency roof replacements at T.W. Andrews High School and Shadybrook Elementary School. The district will spend $16.8 million from the Qualified School Construction Bonds program on basic repairs ranging from roofs to heating and air conditioning upgrades.

SUNDAY: High Point schools in need of repair TODAY: The funding challenge “We may have even more roofs to address,” Gerald Greeson, district maintenance director, later told the school board. “We have another list in the works.” The district staff will spend much of the winter seeking contractors for summer repairs to be financed by the federal bonds. “And if more water (money) is added to that trough, we will go for it,” said Sharon Ozment, district chief financial officer. dnivens@hpe.com | 888-3626

TIPS
• You can make your own stock if you like by simmering chicken bones or parts in water with onions, celery, garlic and carrots. After simmering, strain out and discard the solids, then chill. The fat will solidify on the surface and is easily scraped off and discarded. The flavor of homemade stock much better than purchased. is Plus, you control how much salt is added. • This is a great base recipe for noodle soup. You can add different herbs and spices to take the flavor in any direction you like. Some soy sauce, ginger and bok choy or miso and mushrooms, or even some kimchee and peas are great (and healthy) ways to keep it interesting.

hicken noodle soup may have a reputation for helping us beat the winter sniffles, but that doesn’t make it health food. Processed varieties, for example, can be loaded with calories, fat and sodium. And don’t even get me started on the lack of flavor and hunks of tough chicken. In my recipe for chicken noodle soup, I sidestep all these liabilities. I simmer the soup with real chicken and fresh vegetables, like carrots and onions, which are a great source of vitamins. The more veggies you add, the more nutrients you get. Like many chicken noodle soups, mine is based on broth instead of cream, which saves on fattening calories. And I add thyme for flavor, negating the need for excess salt. Soup is one of those foods classified as “low energy dense.� This means you can eat a lot of it and fill up without consuming a lot of calories.
