One big idea

LONGTIME COWETAN UNVEILS PLANS FOR CREATING A HOMELESS SHELTER, SERVICE CENTER

BY SARAH FAY CAMPBELL sarah@newnan.com

A proposal to turn a former textile mill into a service center for homeless Cowetans – providing shelter, food, job training, counseling and other services – was formally presented recently to the Newnan Rotary Club.

Rotarian Bill Headley owns the long-shuttered mill in Sargent, and his idea to turn it into a place where the local homeless can get the tools and support they need if they desire to become more successful.

Headley said God placed the homeless issue on his heart, so he began thinking about something he could do about it. He’s owned the 150,000 square foot mill, which sits on 16 acres in the Sargent village, for years.

It wouldn’t be like a traditional homeless shelter where residents stay for the night and are sent out in the morning, Headley said, and there would be separate areas for individuals and families with children.

Headley said he envi-

“There could be woodworking and welding shops, and residents could learn various skills, from construction and plumbing to sewing, child care and cosmetology.” sions motel-style rooms, each with its own bathroom, for residents, who would be able to have their own secure place while they live there.

Along with the rooms, Headley wants a large commercial kitchen and dining area, classrooms, job training areas, a food pantry, a thrift store and a garden.

“There could be woodwork i n g a nd weld i n g shops, and residents could learn various skills, from construction and plumbing to sewing, child care and cosmetology,” Headley said. “There’s plenty of space for just about anything.”

The center would have paid staff as well as volunteers, and there is talk of partnering with vari-

ous schools a nd other organizations.

But to make it work, Headley said, there needs to be unity.

Courtney Wilbanks is the co-owner of Kettleworks, a traveling food stand that specializes in flavored popcorn.

The business is based in Newnan, but the family takes their speciality snack food to area festivals and events.

Kettleworks even caters weddings and special functions.

BY MELANIE RUBERTI melanie@newnan.com

You can smell Courtney Wilbanks and Bob Horner’s Kettleworks food stand a block away before you even see it.

The scent of freshly popped popcorn wafts through the air, mixed w it h a sweet, sa lt y and savory aroma of a va riety of snack food toppings.

The father / daughter duo specialize i n p op cor n a nd t a ke their food tent on the r o a d to a v a r i e t y of events such as, Ma i n Street Newnan’s Market Day, the Peachtree City Night Market, the Taste of Newnan, the Coweta County Rodeo,

plus severa l more festivities.

T hei r m a i n st aples are kettle corn and caramel popcorn, plus one speciality f lavor each month. “ We g o b a c k a n d forth between a sweet and savory flavor,” said Wilbanks. “Last month (April), we had a cookies and cream f lavored popcorn. This month, during Market Day, we had buffalo blue cheese popcorn.”

Sometimes, Wilbanks will post a poll on t he Kettleworks Facebook page and let customers choose the next specialty flavor.

But most of the time, the father / daugh-

ter duo come up with their ow n popcorn concoction.

“We’ll sit a nd wonder, ‘What would that taste like on popcorn?’

Then we’ll go make it,” Wilba n ks said with a smile. “Sometimes we like what we come up w it h , a nd somet i mes we say to each other, ‘We’re never going to ma ke that again.’ But finding new f lavors is half the fun of it.”

W hen the Kettlework s food tent is at a n event , ever y t h i ng is made fresh on site, f rom t he popcor n to the crisp, tart lemonade, Wilbanks added.

Kettleworks started in March 2015 and the

concept behind it was simple: both Wilbanks and Horner loved popc o r n a n d w a n t e d to sha re t hei r favor ite s n a c k fo o d w it h t h e community.

“My dad and I make a great team, and it was a g reat way to spend t i me to get her, plu s ma ke a little money,” Wilbanks said.

While the family has only lived in Newnan f ive yea rs , t hey consider the city their home – and they enjoy bei ng a pa r t of t he community.

Times-Herald Xtra

The Good, the Bad and the Gone T he sa me problem pops up at least once a year.

Something goes missing and the search sends me digging t h roug h pi les of st u ff I shou ld h ave t h row n out the year before. Or t he decade before. Or in my case, the century before.

I hold on to personal stuff longer than I should. There’s a term for someone li ke that.

Not hoarder. Stupid.

A g re at ex a mple of personal items I’ve kept far too long is the box of fa m i ly photos I ’ ve lugged around since my mot her d ied 2 7 yea rs ago.

T he origi na l collect ion proba bly topp e d 1,000 photos. The fact that Mother stored them in a f limsy cardboard box should have been a clue as to their value, but for some reason I thought throwing them away would hurt her feelings.

Some of t he snapshots included me o r m y s i s t e r. O t h e r s showed aunts, uncles, cousins and grandmothers. The photos of people I could identify h ave a l l b e en pa s s e d along and I’m still left w it h hundreds of pictures of people who are (a) total strangers and (b) dead.

A shrink would proba b l y s a y i t ’s t i m e to move on. Hard to argue with that observation.

A quick check of the garage conf irmed that I have more tools than I know what to do with.

L itera l ly. T he col lec-

ALEX MCRAE t i o n i n c lu d e s to ol s I never used and tools I can’t even identify.

W hat a dope. The only tool I need these days is a telephone prog ra m med w it h t he numbers of people who can f ix any home i mprovement problem I have.

T he ha rdest t hing about parting with the tools will be admitting I’m not – and never was – Mr. Fixit.

Fo r s o m e r e a s o n , I still have the program from my daughter’s colle g e g r a d u a t i on . No t the diploma. The program. The Emory campus was all abuzz that day because the g uest spea ker was the Dalai Lama. I was there e a rly a n d w a n d e r i n g around when Mr. Dalai – or Lama – pulled up i n a s t re tc h l i mo .

He ref used to auto graph my program. It’s time that paper took a trip the loca l la ndf ill.

Karma, baby.

I’ll keep one item be c au se it ’s co ol a nd doesn’t ta ke up much space. My father earned an engineering degree f rom Aubu r n i n 19 3 4 .

Except for h is ti me

i n t he A r my Cor ps of E n g i n e e r s i n Wo r l d War II, he never worked as an engineer. But he a lway s kept h i s sl ide rule. I’ll keep it, too, if only to remind me that b efore computer s h it the scene, mathematicians and engineers did s ome pret t y a m a z i n g t h i ngs wit h tools t hat didn't have to be programmed or plugged in.

My pi le of leftovers i nclude s a box of old videotapes. I don’t have a videotape player anymore. I’ll keep a couple s o my g r a nd k id s c a n use them for show and tell at school.

I used to think these leftovers m ight someday be useful. It’s time to ad m it t hey ’re ju n k t h a t s o o n e r o r l a t e r, somebody else will have to throw away. I’ll save them the trouble.

The big cleanout starts soon. This time, everyt h i n g goe s . W it h one exception.

I have boxes a nd s h e l ve s a n d d r a we r s cra m med w it h book s .

T he pi le g rows ever y ye a r. T h e c o l l e c t i o n i ncludes col lege tex tbook s I ’l l never open again, books I keep reading over and over and books so bad they should never have r ol l e d o f f a p r i n t i n g press.

The collection is worthless to everybody but me. I don’t care. A m a n’s got t a d raw t he l i ne s ome where . T he junk can go, but as long as I’m sti ll breat h i ng, the books will stay.

Ask Miss Pearl Dear Miss Pearl, We recently buried my precious 89-yearold Daddy, and I am still furious that my niece let her two sons – ages 12 and 14 – wear shorts and f lip-f lops to t h e v i s i t a t i o n .

You r n ie ce i s doi n g a d i s service to her boys by allowing them to think their attire was acceptable for a funeral visitation. I feel sure the vast majority of the population agrees with us on this, and there IS comfor t i n nu mber s .

First of all, it is called trespassing. Secondly, e ve r yo n e k n ow s yo u should wait until dark before you c ut f rom s om e on e el s e's y a rd .

I f love i s t he u n iver s a l l a n g u a ge t hen surely the explicit use of the middle f inger is a close second. It's not surprising when a teenager does it – some people consider it a rite of passage – but I f ind it highly offensive when a n adu lt does it.

A new place to call home AREA FAMILIES ARE OPENING THEIR HOMES AND HEARTS TO CHILDREN IN NEED FROM AROUND THE WORLD

BY MELANIE RUBERTI melanie@newnan.com

T he sou nds of ha mmers, saws and construction equipment will soon be heard at Nick and Kate Hayes’ Sharpsburg home.

The couple is renovating their garage into a family room, plus redecorating bedrooms as they prepa re to welcome a new member into their home.

The Hayes are in the process of adopt i ng a 10-year-old girl from the Philippines.

Since the adoption is not complete, the Hayes did not want to use her name is the article and instead referred to their new daughter as “M.” T he 10 -yea r-old was born without hands, feet or a mouth opening, but the Hayes said they fell in love with her the instant t h e y s aw h e r pic t u re online.

“It was the first time she had been on the adoption list in six months, but we k new i m med iately we wanted her,” said Nick. “She had an operation to repair her mouth and despite not having hands or feet, she’s thriving. ‘M’ can write, draw a nd pa i nt . She ’s ver y inspirational.”

“M” will join the Hayes’ two other children, Jude, 5 and Bethany, 2.

Nick said he and his wife thought they were done hav i ng ch i ld ren , a nd e ven m ove d i nto a sm a l ler hou se . G od changed their minds.

“We felt the Lord calling us to adopt, so we prayed about it,” Nick said. “One night I was sitting in the backyard with the kids and thought if God has given me to heart to adopt and resources to do it, I have to at least try.”

T he Hayes sta r ted the adoption process in Ju ly 2017 a nd decided to find a young child in need of a family from the Philippines.

A c c o r d i n g to K e l l y Preston, co-founder of the R ACE for the Orphans, t here a re 1 5 0 m i l l ion orphans worldwide.

She and her husband Ja s on h ave a l s o b e en t h roug h t he adopt ion process.

“We’re Christians and feel t hat God adopted us into his family, so we s hou ld do t he s a me ,” Kelly said. “We wanted to spread the love of Christ to another child. We just had it in our hearts to adopt a child.”

The couple, who have t h re e ot her c h i ld ren , de cided adopt a baby from China. Their journey began in June 2012.

Similar to the Hayes’ experience, the Prestons fel l i n love w it h t hei r daughter as soon as they saw her.

“On March 23, 2013, we got an email with this little girls picture. I looked at it and just started crying. I told my husband, ‘Jason, I think we found our little girl,’” Kelly said.

T he couple brought 2 ½-year-old Jenna Jean Preston home in November 2013.

Kelly admitted the first few months presented a rough transition for the little girl and the family.

Jenna was born with ichthyosis, a skin condition where dead cells a c c u m u l a te . Sh e a l s o doesn’t sweat and can get overheated quickly, said Kelly.

Jenna didn’t speak English and had a hard time a dj u s t i n g to h e r n e w family.

“My daug hter wa s sca red to deat h of my husband for the first six months she was here. I would go for a run, and she wou ld f rea k out ,” Kelly said. “We had to work t h r o u g h it , a nd now she’s smitten with him. Our youngest son, A nd re w, to ok it h a rd because he was the baby of the family. But now they’re very close. It’s just beautiful to see. Our children don’t think of Jenna as being adopted.

They tell people that’s their sister. They stick up for Jenna and make sure she’s having a good day.”

W h i le t he P reston s’ process with Jenna was fairly smooth, the couple a re awa re of the cha llenges and heartbreak of adoption, too.

Every country, including the United States, has different requirements and procedures for adopting children.

Some i nternationa l agencies require the adopting parents to live in country for six months to one year before they’re allowed to bring the child back to the United States, said Kelly.

For some families, it may ta ke yea rs before they are matched with a child and then another year or more before they can bring the child home.

Adoption is also expensive, and can cost couple s bet ween $ 3 0,0 0 0 - $50,000.

The Prestons wanted to help offset the cost for other local families going t h roug h t he adopt ion process.

The couple started the RACE for the Orphans 5K in April 2013 – just two weeks a fter they were matched with Jenna.

The mission behind the event is “Raising Awareness , Compa ssion a nd Education (RACE) about the needs of orphans in America and around the world,” according to their website.

“Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies...Her children arise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.”

Jenna shows off a younger picture of her while surrounded by her new brothers and sisters, from left, Shelby, Jenna, Nathan and Andrew. The family was celebrating Jenna’s “Referral Day” in March. It’s the day the Prestons were matched with Jenna.

The event continues to grow. In 2017, the group raised $33,000.

Each year, the nonprofit orga nization uses that money to help four families, also known as grant recipients, in Coweta and the surrounding counties.

Kelly said.

“For families who want to adopt, we don’t want the dollar sign to distract them,” she added. “Our role is to encourage others, create a community for those who are going t h roug h adopt ion a nd raise awareness. We want to keep it local. We want to keep i n touch w it h these families and see them year after year.”

Kel ly sa id si nce t he R ACE for the Orphans began, the organization h a s ra i sed more t h a n $95,000 in grant money and helped a total of 16 families.

This year, one of those grant recipients will be the Hayes family.

“We thought the biggest barrier for us would be the financial aspect,” Nick said. “But we put ou r fa it h a nd t r ust i n God. He showed us so many things, his faithfulness and support. By the end of the RACE for the Orphans on Saturday, we

“I had so much faith ‘M’ was going to be ours that for Christmas, I bought my wife a ring with our two biological children’s birthstones in it – and ‘M’s’ birthstone too,” he added.

T he H ayes received f inal approval on their new daughter’s adoption last week and are preparing the necessary paperwork to finally bring her home.

“We’re a little nervous because we haven’t had a preteen before. She didn’t grow up with us, so it’s a little intimidating,” Nick admitted. “But we’ve gotten to Skype with her, and it’s been great experience. When we read her medical reports, despite her disabilities, they said she was ‘joyous.’ “ I h a ve a n a u t i s t i c brother and showed her a picture of him. ‘M’ said she just wanted to give him a hug,” Nick added.

“There’s a n innocence and sweetness about her, and she has compassion, too. She’s absolutely gorgeous inside and out.”

Cattlemen’s Rodeo

Called the funniest farce ever written, “Noises Off” by Michael Frayn presents a manic menagerie as a cast of itinerant actors rehearsing a flop called “Nothing's On.” Doors slamming, on and offstage intrigue, and an errant herring all figure in the plot of this hilarious and classically comic play. If it can go wrong, it will go wrong, and Murphy’s Law gets tested to its maximum in this hysterical show.

idea, he said.

“There are hundreds of churches in Coweta County,” Headley said.

“If 50 families each from 300 churches would commit to $10 a month, that would be $1.8 million a year – plenty of money to operate the shelter and center.”

As a young man in Alabama many years ago, Headley said, he and fellow members of the local Jaycees went into their community to convince people to pay an extra

$10 on their utility bills to build a new recreation center.

The drive was a tremendous success, and the center is still in use today.

Headley said he wants to put together a strong board of directors, with many talents. And the project will need volunteers who are willing to put work in to make the plan a reality. “ T h i s i s a p r oj e c t that is going to take all hands on deck,” said Joe

Wyant, president of the Newnan Rotary Club and Coweta Juvenile Court judge. “It is going to take all of our thoughts and suggestions."

Pla ns a re to hold a public meeting soon to bring together all those who are interested in the project.

SHELTER

continued from page 1

There are many nonprofit organizations in Coweta that work to help those less fortunate. But, he asked, can they come together for a project of this size?

“I think there is a need for one entity,” Headley said. “How do we unite the community?”

He said he’d like to get some good statistics on the number of people who need these types of services, and what kinds of things they need to help them get on

their feet and become successful.

T he m i l l h a s b e en vacant a long time, and all the copper has been stolen from it. Fixing it up to serve as the shelter and service center would be a lot of work – but it’s something Headley has done before.

Owning a multifaceted company, like Headley Construction, helps.

S e ve r a l ye a r s a g o , Headley and a partner redeveloped t he former Newnan Bag Mill in

downtown Newnan into the Newnan Lofts apartments, which have been very successful, Headley said.

He estimated the renovation of t he bu i lding would cost approximately $3 million.

As for yearly operations, Headley suggested that Cowetans who are interested in supporting the effort could have $10 a month added to their utility bills. He’s already talked to local utility compa n ies about t he
