The 2010 Blue Ridge BBQ & Music Festival drew an estimated crowd of 14,569 over two days, June 11 and 12, and turned a profit of $30,000, according to unaudited financial statements
compiled by music chairman Peter Eisenbrown and festival administrator Tabitha Cantrell. In light of such positive results, Eisenbrown asked the chamber board at its meeting last Wednesday to continue operating the 17-year-old festival. Eisenbrown is not currently a member of the Carolina Foothills Chamber of Commerce Board, which
owns and operates the festival. But Eisenbrown, who has run the music portion of the festival for the past 15 years, became the most vocal supporter of the festival when the chamber announced its cancellation early last January. The chamber restored the festival on January 28 after (Continued on page 10)

Polk sues White Oak developers for $135k Lawsuit over money for water line construction by Leah Justice
After giving the development another month to pay, Polk County has filed suit against White Oak Development Partners, LLC to collect more than $135,000 owed for a county water line.
Polk County Manager Ryan Whitson filed the lawsuit last Wednesday in Polk County Civil Superior Court. White Oak still owes the county $135,752.50 for a water line the county constructed to the proposed development last year. The lawsuit says that on Nov. 3, 2008, White Oak entered into a contract for the county to provide

potable water to the development for a cost of $423,515. The contract was later amended, with the project coming in under bid at a total of $359,505. White Oak put half of the total in escrow with the remainder agreed to be paid by Aug. 31, 2009. “As of July 3, 2010, White (Continued on page 4)

ing photography for about 1½ years now, “I honestly didn't have much interest in photography. I had dedicated myself to art (painting, sketching and mixed media), but I never tried photography,” she said. “When I was taking an art class at Blue Ridge, I decided to use photography for my 60-minute timed final because it would save me time and I had a better chance of completing the assignment! After that, I became completely awed by the possibilities I had with a camera! I could really use my imagination to create anything and everything I could dream of.” “I am thrilled that my work will be seen across Germany to

Oak has not paid the amount due of $135,752.50,” states the county in the lawsuit. “That plaintiff made demand for payment of the funds due and owing, but defendant has failed to pay anything.” The county is claiming breach of contract, asking that the amount owed be paid plus eight percent interest from the date of the breach of the contract. The county sent a letter to White Oak on Jan. 13, 2010 through county attorney Tom Hix saying, “The Polk County Board of Commissioners has instructed me to communicate to you that you have ten (10) working days to pay the amount of $169,752.50 to fulfill your contract obligation for the water line, which is due and owing.” Following that letter, White Oak asked the county to set up a payment plan. The county originally denied that request but later agreed for White Oak to pay the county $34,000 per month for five months, with the payments ending in June. White Oak paid the first

The feel of the city is such an inspiration! Right now I'm doing some contributing work for Verbicide Magazine, which involves album reviews, concert coverage and photography.

installment, but the county has received no further payments. Polk decided last month to file a lawsuit and gave White Oak another month before officially filing the suit in court after not receiving any more money. White Oak developer Justin Kinsella said last month that the developers understand the county’s position and White Oak is working to resolve the matter soon. The developers said earlier in the year that the economy has caused difficulties with the project, but that they are still committed to the development, having invested $30 million of their own resources for the development. Polk paid for the water line extension out of its fund balance, with the construction being completed last fall. The extension comes off the county’s main water line that runs through Polk County connecting the Broad River Water Authority to the Inman Campobello Water District. White Oak’s water line is an approximately two-mile extension that runs from the Hwy. 14 and Hwy. 9 crossroad, down Sandy Plains Road to the development. (Continued on page 6)

One of the first things Jones did after starting work is introduce Andrew Davis, a local youngster who is just getting started in the food service business, to the team concept of food preparation. “Andrew has an amazing amount of natural talent,” Jones said. “He’s a quick study and not afraid to try new things." Red Fox General Manager Tony Jackson said, “The team approach has already proven itself. We recently introduced an expanded Sunday brunch menu and last Sunday we turned a full dining room three times between 10:30 and 3.” The clubhouse dining room and Tally-Ho Tavern at the local country club are open to the public Wednesday through Saturday and for Sunday brunch.

Everybody’s Talking… When hip pain forced the former Cincinnati Bengals coach and Pickens High School football Coach Sam Wyche off the sidelines, the football legend was scheduled for surgery in a large teaching hospital with “leading” surgeons. But he felt lost in the system. “Those surgeons never communicated with me and it was making me a little nervous. So I checked around, heard about Dr. Rosenberg and his anterior approach to hip surgery so I made the trip to Polk County. I’d never heard of St. Luke’s Hospital, but I had a first-rate experience. I can’t say enough good stuff about it.” Now he’s telling everyone he knows. Whether he’s coaching the quarterback or signing autographs, Sam Wyche is back in the game of life.

2010 BBQ festival goers recycled 75 percent waste by Leah Justice
compared to 2,620 lbs. of containers and 1,050 of cardboard in 2009. This year’s festival composted 9,080 of food compared to 8,500 lbs. of food at last year’s festival. Polk County commissioner Cindy Walker, who is recycling crew leader for the festival, said she is very grateful for all the volunteers, particularly the ones
who stood in the hot sun this year and helped people get recycling in the correct bags. Walker also said this year’s recycling effort was enhanced thanks to vendors who spent a little extra money to have everything, including plates and cups combustible. “We achieved 75 percent diversion of all solid waste
collected,” Walker said, “so 75 percent of the waste did not go into the landfill.” Last year’s festival had a 79 percent waste diversion compared to this year’s 75 percent. In 2008, the festival had a 64 percent waste diversion, with 2007 having a 45 percent diversion and 2006 a 23 percent waste diversion.

back. We called him this year our ‘budget maven.’ He shepherded the budget and it looks like we made a profit.” Millard said attendance in recent years has been falling from its one-time high of 20,000, but he said his biggest concern going forward is the management. “We have shown this can be a viable event,” Millard said, “But who is going to do the work? It takes very special people. That is not an easy question to answer.” Eisenbrown, however, said he believes most of the BBQ steering committee members have indicated they are willing to return to their jobs in 2011, and that the majority of the “rainy day fund” underwriters also would likely continue to support the festival. “The underwriters did not back the festival in 2010 to see it cancelled in 2011,” Eisenbrown wrote to chamber board members. Most underwriters agreed to pay up to $1,000 if the festival were to show a loss in 2010. Eisenbrown said the results of the 2010 festival justify its contin-
ued operation by the chamber, and he wondered what else the chamber could possibly have in its plans that could equal the profit potential and local economic impact of the BBQ. “Despite cancellation of the festival and our major sponsors in January, the festival made a profit of $30,000 — on the conservative side,” Eisenbrown said to those in attendance at the chamber board meeting last week. He also sent his presentation by email to the full board to reach those who were not in attendance. “This year’s event, with all its trials (cancellation, weather [hot], economy, no active searching for sponsors), showed that the chamber has a popular, money-making event, and with better management it can become even more profitable for the chamber and a boon to the local economy,” Eisenbrown wrote. Eisenbrown noted that a survey, taken by TouchPoll, a national marketing research company, showed “overwhelmingly positive” response from those in attendance at the 2010 festival. TouchPoll
workers using laptops and “comment card” software surveyed 428 people at the festival – including cookers, vendors, volunteers and visitors — a sample size TouchPoll said is more than large enough to exceed “a 95 percent confidence level” in the results. Based on the TouchPoll survey, festival public relations officer Brenda Bradshaw of Young Creative Associates in Hendersonville said the festival generated $1.2 million in economic impact in the Thermal Belt communities. She based this on the estimates of personal spending given by the cookers, vendors, volunteers and visitors surveyed, as well as known fees and festival spending. “I can’t confirm that economic impact number yet,” Millard said Friday. “I will be studying that over the weekend.” Eisenbrown said he believes sponsorship sales can be worked more diligently, and should be started now, and that there are “plenty of opportunities to make the festival a money-maker for local businesses,” as well as to keep tighter reins on the festival budget.

Spectators recycled 75 percent of their waste at this year’s Blue Ridge Barbecue and Music Festival. The total pounds of recycled waste was close to last year even though there was a smaller crowd. Festival spectators recycled 2,000 lbs. of containers and 1,780 lbs. of cardboard this year

garnering $83,000 in “rainy day” pledges from area residents and supporters. The future of the festival after 2010, however, was left in doubt. The chamber leadership at the time stated its intention to run the 2010 festival and then seek a new arrangement for future festivals, with new management, citing concerns about the excessive risk, dwindling profits, and the manpower required to run the festival. But chamber president Andy Millard said last Friday that a survey has gone out to chamber members seeking their opinion as to whether or not the chamber should continue to operate the festival. The chamber board will hold a special meeting July 21st to consider the question, Millard said. “I can’t confirm the $30,000 profit,” Millard said, “But I have confidence in the numbers Peter (Eisenbrown) and Tabitha (Cantrell) compiled. Peter has been a hero in his efforts to bring the BBQ

lifestyle to improve health and well-being. The course focused on the use of Chinese herbal formulas for the treatment of medical and behavioral problems in dogs and cats. Dr. Mitchell has been practicing acupuncture for more than 16 years and began adding herbal formulas to her practice 10 years ago. She says Chinese herbal formulas are complex combina-
tions of multiple herbs that have synergistic affects with minimal side effects. Many of the formulas are “classical” formulas which have been in existence for hundreds of years, but some have been modified to increase their effectiveness in veterinary diseases. TCM is one of the integrative modalities offered at

Do you live in Upstate South Carolina or the foothills of North Carolina? Are you interested in reptiles and amphibians? Do you want to meet more people with similar interests? If these questions peak your interest, then come to the Landrum Public Library on Tuesday, July 20 from 5:30 to 8 p.m. for a free viewing of “Herpers,” an award-winning documentary about reptile enthusi-
asts from around the country. There will be a meeting immediately afterwards about starting a herpetology club in the area. Organizers are looking for enthusiastic and dedicated people of any age or walk of life to join. All they ask is that you have an insatiable appetite for reptile knowledge and conservation and are willing and ready to be part of a group with the same aspirations. The film and meeting are sponsored by the Friends of the Landrum Library. Call Lynnea Stadelmann at 864-457-4092 for more information. – article submitted

Article 5: Nonprofit budget As the Nonprofit Leadership column continues the series on Management and Fiscal Accountability for Nonprofits, this article will focus on the nonprofit budget. Budgeting for nonprofits is a key governance item that should not be taken lightly. The budget should be considered a live working document and referred to and compared monthly with the financials. This document sets the parameters for the nonprofits entire year’s activities, programs, and events. Qualities of an effective nonprofit budget include the following; Mission based. Mission based budgets always follow the nonprofits overall reason they are there to serve and or make a difference. Realistic, matching the real world. With your nonprofit budget you want a budget to be as accurate as possible. Always try to obtain quotes as much as possible. Consistent with long-term objectives; this should be evident with the fundraising category. Flexible. This is very true in the current economic situation we are in. Focuses on organizational
Letter to the Editor
Borders keep getting weaker from the inside To the Editor: In Bob Neubauer’s letter to the editor I must take exception to his final sentence, “I don’t believe that attention given to
goals. Make sure to include the nonprofits strategic plan in the budget. Ties to the nonprofits chart of accounts. You want to make sure the budget follows the chart of accounts for monthly comparison with the financial statements. Typical nonprofit budget problems include the following: Mathematical errors. Excel spreadsheets are great for formulas, but from time to time the formulas pick up one to many cells or not enough. Make sure you have a volunteer who can sit with a calculator and check the math before submitting the budget. No or poor prior year information. Budgets should compare at least last years information if not two to three years prior. Make sure to include end of year actual figures from the prior years along with the year budget. Mission creep. Make sure the budget is true to the nonprofit’s mission and not a board, staff or volunteers interpretation of what the mission is. Not considering cash flow. Make sure along with the budget a yearly cash flow is projected to show if a line of credit will be needed and that the interest to pay it off is included in the budget.
Not budgeting for the future. Have you checked to make sure there will be no increases in electricity, supplies, etc for the year you are budgeting for? Have you included all programs, events, activities? – Even the new ones that the special events & development committees are talking about now. Again make sure the budget is consistent and it is not too aggressive or too conservative. Before submitting your budget, always ask the following questions; Did you forget anything? Do all the numbers match? Who will check the math? Is there consistency across all forms and worksheets? If you are using electronic worksheets, – don’t erase the formulas! This will assist the help committee and board members follow the numbers with in within the budget. The next several articles will continue to focus on finances and accounting.

Has
he noticed how many of those names are Latino. Those names belong to people that fight and die and bleed while their relatives back home have to read letters to the editor that dishonor them as a people. I believe our borders keep getting weaker from the inside by careless statements. – Stan Mazur
