Local woman joins efforts to fight effects of Gulf oil spill by Emily Riddle
Like many people across the country and around the world, Samantha Lovelace of the Pacolet Valley paid attention when she learned of the April 20 explosion of an oil-drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico. Hearts broke, tears fell and tempers flared as crude oil poured into the Gulf, a region rich with wildlife, marine industry and countless delicate ecosystems. Lovelace’s emotions rose to the surface as she observed this crisis, and she knew that she had to do something. “I have been compelled since the minute I found out about this to work, write … constantly… in order to make any impact on this sickening disaster,” Lovelace said in a May 31 installment of her blog (www.sams(Continued on page 3)
Samantha Lovelace holds up a newly completed hair boom, one of many she helped make that will be used to help absorb spilled oil in the Gulf area. (photo submitted)

dayoff.blogspot.com). She is particularly passionate about the oil spill cleanup because she hails originally from the Gulf, specifically Hattiesburg, Miss. Lovelace quickly contacted A Matter of Trust, an ecological public charity concentrating on manmade surplus, natural surplus and eco-education. In other words, this nonprofit specializes in linking needs with natural solutions. In the case of the oil spill, A Matter of Trust is leading the collection of hair booms. Hair booms, as described by media nationwide, are nylon bags filled with hair and fur. Because hair and fur naturally absorb oil, these booms are invaluable in the oil spill cleanup. (Watch this series for more information on hair booms: how they are made, how they work, how they can be recycled.) After contacting A Matter of Trust, Lovelace decided to join the volunteer effort on the front lines

of the clean-up. She raised some funds and found a travel partner, Quincy Jackson of Polk County, and together they headed to the Gulf on June 1. Local videographer Chris Riddle later joined
the team. According to Lovelace’s blog, the team’s “mission statement” was not spelled out for this trip, but she found a focus in the words of one Gulf fisherman named Tom
Young. Young said, “I was just sitting here thinking our way of life is over. It’s the end, the apocalypse, and no one outside (Continued on page 4)

Testing being expedited to speed renovation work by Leah Justice
Polk County has decided to spend between $2,000 and $3,000 to do soil testing at the site of a planned adult day care center after weeks of rain have caused delays in paving a road. Commissioners met last week and agreed for Polk County Manager Ryan Whitson to order soil testing to ensure the soil is suitable for paving. The center was initially expected to open around mid-May, but recent rains have delayed the work. The weather has slowed work on outdoor improvements, such as paving a road and cul-desac and constructing a covered drop-off point for clients. Interior improvements such as renovations to restrooms and adding a sprinkler system were completed earlier this year. Commissioners have not set an opening date, but they said last week they were hopeful that the testing will come back positive, so the paving of the road and
parking lot can begin as soon as possible. Whitson said contractors indicated that if the moisture content of the soil was not correct, the paving would crack in the future and cause problems, so contractors felt more comfortable getting soil tests prior to paving. Commissioners said it normally takes about two weeks to move the dirt. Gravel can then be laid and allowed to sit for a little while prior to paving. Polk County purchased the former Carolina Classical School buildings off Skyuka Road near Columbus and last year moved the Meeting Place Senior Center there. After a push from the community to provide space for an adult day care center over the last several years, commissioners decided to renovate a building at the rear of the new senior center for the purpose. Rutherford Life Services, which runs a sister center in Rutherford County, will lease the building and run the adult day care center in Polk. The center in Polk will be named after Don and Betsy Freeman, who were instrumental in getting a center in Polk County.
Columbus to look into county-wide police option Town will visit Gaston Cty. to study its county wide police system by Leah Justice
While looking into future ways to shrink the small town’s budget, Columbus agreed recently to look into what it would take to consolidate county police departments. The consolidation idea came up recently at Columbus Town Council meetings when council members were discussing ways to cut the budget for next fiscal year,
jbtrees - page 10
which begins on Thursday. Councilmen Michael Gage and Richard Hall said Gaston County, N.C., has county-wide law enforcement and it might be useful to look into their system. Gage and Hall agreed to travel to Gaston County sometime in the near future at their own expense to explore the idea to learn if the option is feasible for Polk County. Gage said that funding Columbus’ police department takes 43 percent of the town's general fund and other small towns have similar (Continued on page 7)

circumstances. “I really feel Columbus should take the lead on county-wide law enforcement,” Gage said. The topic of county-wide law enforcement has come up several times in recent years, but the towns and county have never agreed to move forward. “I feel our police department is very important, but I’m always willing to look into it,” Hall said. “My main concern is that all the towns are covered. If two officers were in each town and we could consolidate, that could save a ton of money.” The topic could be one of many discussions at joint meetings that Polk County and the towns of Columbus, Saluda and Tryon have recently begun holding. The towns and county held the first joint meeting earlier this month. Another is planned for Aug. 3, which will be to specifically discuss the possibility of combining water sources.
Life’s Too Short to Live in Pain The answer? Advanced training and innovation. “Dr. Glover did reconstructive surgery on my foot after it was completely crushed. I lead a very active lifestyle and was very concerned that this injury would impact my quality of life. Not only did Dr. Glover take the time to get to know me, he really wanted to do all that he could to make sure I was able to continue my activities. I really appreciate that Dr. Glover took the extra time to ensure a good outcome. I had a wonderful experience and have highly recommended Dr. Glover to many people, and will continue to do so.” - Laurie Biggerstaff of Ellenboro

the Davis sisters recently had their very own championship weekend. sydney Davis, playing in the 12-under division, and younger sister alyssa, playing in the 10-under division, each won asa south Carolina state championships within a few hours of one another. Alyssa played center field for the east Coast extremes 10-under fastpitch team en route to a state title early in the day in rock Hill. Later in the day, sydney pitched a no-hitter
to lead the palmetto thunder 12-under team to a state championship in sumter. “I was excited because we both won,” alyssa said. “that doesn’t happen much, I don’t guess.” sydney’s no-hitter was icing on the cake. “I hit all my spots that (the coach) called, and I was throwing hard,” sydney said. “We have a really good defense and that helped me out a lot.” While mother Lisa was with alyssa, father Joe was on the road with sydney for the no-hitter.
“that’s probably the best she’s pitched in a long time,” Joe said. Both girls are playing a strenuous summer season of traveling club and local recreation league softball, but that is nothing new – and neither are the state championships. sydney’s team won three 10-under championships and alyssa won one with her team in 2009. “all the other tournaments we play are really warm-ups for the state tournaments,” Joe said. “the whole month of June is for
