'The Stories of Green River Cove' New Arledge book gathers memories of cove's past

by Jeff Byrd

Beauford Arledge, 84, remembers the Green River Cove in the early 1900s like few others still alive.

Now he has gathered his memories in a book.

“Looking back some 80 years, I remember more of the happenings in this time period than all the rest put together,” he writes in the introduction to “The Stories of Green River Cove.”

Beauford Arledge was born in the cove in 1926, the son of Harrison Arledge and Dora Bishop.

After they married in 1921, they moved to the lower end of the cove where they lived for 30 years and raised four children.

Polk, towns step closer to unified water, sewer authority

by Jeff Byrd

The idea of uniting all the water and sewer systems in Polk County under one authority moved forward this week.

Elected officials and managers from Polk County, Tryon, Columbus and Saluda gathered for a joint meeting at the Columbus Town Hall Tuesday to hear a presentation from Tuckaseigee Water and Sewer Authority (TWSA) officials.

TWSA merged the three water and sewer systems in Jackson County in 1992.

For the first 90 minutes of TWSA’s presentation, Polk officials heard tales of woe. But they also heard that TWSA has been successful in winning $10 million in grants over the past five years, and is fixing its problems one by one.

Furthermore, TWSA officials said

• Green River (continued from page 1)

Beauford spent his first 23 years there, before leaving to serve with the 95th Infantry Division in Belgium, Holland, and Germany. He fought through the Battle of the Bulge.

As a new century dawned, he started thinking about writing down his memories of the time before the war.

“In passing the old home place, I realized that it won’t be long before no one ever knows who lived here,” he wrote.

“The old house is gone now... The land we farmed is now grown up in trees. The rocks from the old chimneys that we got our heat from are gone — they have been hauled away. The old maple tree that stood over the spring has fallen across the spring; only the log is left. Today only a memory is left; a story needs to be written for future generations.”

The book was almost a generation — nine years — in the making, said Arledge’s daughter, Susan Howell.

“It was a calling” for her dad, Howell said. “A seventy-five year old man with a formal education through grade eight determined to write and publish stories of the place, people, and events (Continued on page 4)

it, it is all you know. But people think as if those times were better times than they were. I enjoy the time we live in.”

Now, thanks to his book, people today will understand better the way their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents lived.

Arledges have lived in the area for about 175 years, Beauford Arledge recalled, most of them tracing their roots back to the Green River Cove. His book includes a hand drawn map of the cove from Fish Top Falls to Lake Adger, from the mountain ridges back down to Holbert Cove Road. It shows where all the creeks, roads, trails, paths, cemeteries, churches, schools and post offices were once located.

To make the map, Arledge drove back and forth through the cove, clocking the miles on his

odometer to get everything just right and to scale.

“My father is about the only one who could recreate that map now,” Howell said. “My uncle Hugh looked it over and said, 'Yeah, that’s how I remember it.'

A lot of that would be lost.”

The old Arledge cemetery, across the river on a ridge in what is now N.C. Wildlife Commission gamelands, saw its last burial in 1884, probably Martha Alewine Arledge, Arledge writes. Since then, most of the area families have used the Silver Creek Baptist Church cemetery. Arledge spent about two years sketching the Silver Creek cemetery, taking down names and tracking down the names of those with unmarked graves.

“We are still not sure where all the old graves are,” he wrote.

Arledge advises his readers (Continued on page 6)

‘It was a calling’ Beauford Arledge’s daughter wrote the following statement about her father’s work in writing, “The Stories of the Green River Cove.”

by Susan Arledge Howell

It was a calling. A 75-year-old man with a formal education through grade eight determined to write and publish stories of the place, people, and events that shaped the first 21 years of his life.

To accomplish this nine-year task, he toiled for hours, often late at night when he said a story would not allow him to sleep, struggling in front of a computer to learn how to use a word processing program that would allow him to record his strong memories.

Indeed, the whole experience was more than a man recalling a few stories. Rather, it was a man compelled to capture through writing the strong memories of a place, people, and way of life for generations to come.

This man, my father, Beauford Arledge, hopes many will enjoy the sights, sounds, smells, difficulties, challenges, and laughter of the people who lived on Green River Cove from 1890 until 1950.

I would also say that I am so proud of this remarkable accomplishment by my father whom I have always appreciated as very resourceful and smart man. He is now 84 years old and the family is enjoying with him the excitement and rewards of others who are reading and enjoying his book.

“There is no money to be made in water and sewer,” Cline said. “There are far more needs than you will ever have funding for.”

However, he said the towns and county should provide ongoing financial support of the system because of the economic and environmental benefits.

“TWSA is the driving economic force of the county as a whole,” Cline said.

For a couple years, at the height of the development boom in Western North Carolina, TWSA was under a state-imposed moratorium and could not accept any new sewer customers after an over-used sewer plant released spills into the Tuckaseegee River.

That really hurt Jackson County, Cline said.

licans – David Moore, Ted Owens and Tom Pack; and Independents – Tommy Melton (incumbent) and Warren Watson (incumbent).

The fourth question and the candidates’ answers are listed below.

The last question and candidates’ answers will appear next Friday.

• Polk, towns

Ironically, Cline said it was the poor shape of the system TWSA inherited than enabled it to be so successful in winning $10 million in grants over the past five years.

“We could show the need,” he explained.

Setting up a new billing system was another nightmare, said assistant TWSA director Glenna Buchanan.

She also said employees who came over from the Sylva water system were hurt when they left Sylva’s private retirement system to join TWSA. They lost credit for the years they worked for Sylva when they entered the state retirement system.

McMahan said all of those problems faced by TWSA potentially could be fixed before creating a new authority in Polk County.

“Make sure your agreement from day one is rock solid, definite enough, very clear and understandable, so that the folks who replace you on these boards ten years from now can understand what is in place and how it works,” McMahan said.

McMahan said Jackson County maintains a fund to help TWSA with upgrades and expansions and repairs, and the towns are still considering doing the same.

“Sometimes, I have a person living 30 miles from the system, someone who will never hook up, ask why their tax dollars are going to support TWSA,” McMahan said.

“I tell them, ‘You do benefit from clean water, tourism and jobs.’ The last thing we want in Jackson County is a sign posted on the Tuckaseegee saying this water is dirty and you can’t fish, or kayak or boat here. That hurts the environment and the economy.”

Another problem for TWSA was that much of the infrastructure it inherited was in poor shape, and poorly documented, Cline said.

To this day, TWSA does not have documented rights-of-way giving it authority to its fix lines running across some private

properties.

TWSA and Jackson County officials are considering asking the state legislature to pass a bill deeming a right-of-way for long established utility lines.

Yet another problem is that TWSA is not exactly sure what it owns, Cline said.

“We are still in what we call ‘pleasant discussion’ with the municipalities as to exactly what was transferred” in the merger. “It was a handshake agreement. We didn’t have any maps, or drawings. Everyone said. ‘Don’t worry. We’ll handle it later.’”

In the case of Sylva’s system, Cline said TWSA accepted “liabilities, not assets.”

Cline, a former town manager himself from Tennessee, said he knows how towns operated their systems in the old days.

He joked about the water plant operator being called out to go retrieve dead cats from yards, and lines being installed every which way, without being mapped or documented, by private contractors working for the mayor’s friends.

Question: The Vision 20/20 planners recommend tightening county regulations regarding commercial development, requiring impact statements prior to approval, discouraging strip development, requiring green buffers between commercial centers and roadways, and guiding such development to designated “commercial nodes.” Would you support such ordinance changes?

Polk commissioners honor veteran Howard Greene Editor's note: The following is the full text of the presentation made to the Polk County Board of Commissioners Monday night by commissioners Ray Gasperson and Cindy Walker in support of naming the new Polk County Department of Social Services building for Howard Greene.

For all of us, the land, community, and family we come of age with shapes the destiny of our lives. For Howard Greene, growing up and working hard on a family farm located in the Sandy Plains section of the Green Creek Community of Polk County during the Great Depression, attending and excelling as a student at the Green Creek public school, and being part of a close

knit community and family gave him the skills and work ethic to survive the most extreme of combat action during WW II. He returned to his beloved Polk County after the war, ran a successful small business, and became a citizen who would constantly be giving back to his community, especially through his volunteer actions. Even today, at age 91, Howard has not slowed down in his efforts to make our community a better place to live, work and raise a family.

In the months preceding the attack on Pearl Harbor in early 1941, Howard at age 21 received a draft notice. He was sent to a newly constructed army base in (Continued on page 14)

Right: This photograph of a young Howard Greene was taken after approximately two months after Howard had been on the front lines of combat in the Battle of the Bulge. He was told to go get new clothes, and went off to shower and shave off his beard. He had just gotten a hair cut when this photographer asked him if he wanted his picture taken. He laughed and said, “You wouldn’t have recognized me the day before.” Commissioner Ray Gasperson also points out that in this picture, Greene is wearing a medal which has the shape of a rifle on it, the Combat Infantry Badge. “Howard still has this same medal in a display case in his home with many of his other metals, some of which others would consider to be more important, such as the Bronze Star,” Gasperson said. “Still, Howard will point at the metal with the rifle on it and says, ‘This one still means the most to me.’” (photo submitted)

Macon, Georgia. This base was so new that one of the first jobs given to him and the new recruits was to pick the cotton still in rows between the barracks and pull up the plants.

After life on the farm Howard found the Army, unlike his fellow recruits from the cities, to be like a long extended vacation. His life further improved after it was discovered that he could type 65 words a minute without making a mistake. This skill got him out of the hot Georgia sun and into the shade working as a company clerk.

His promotions came quickly and as the war progressed, he was sent to Fort Mead, Maryland and played a major role in troop deployments to the Pacific and to Europe.

It would have been easy for Howard to remain in this important position, but as he told me and Cindy the other day, “he was no better than anyone else” and that he too should be willing to go and serve on the front lines of the war effort. Early in 1944, Howard married Mary his wife now of 66 years, and was sent to England to prepare for the invasion of Europe.

He was picked to become an Army Ranger, and then he and 39 others were also selected to be given additional specialized training by British Commandos so they could operate behind enemy lines.

On D-Day, Howard was among the first troops to hit Omaha Beach scaling the steep, slippery 200-foot high cliffs, laden with mines, and constantly under enemy fire. After surviving the invasion, he became part of the 28th Infantry Regiment.

Howard said that he continued day and night to “crawl, walk, and run.

Not in a straight line, but in a zigzag pattern across Europe”.

Cindy and I were transfixed by the incredible stories of Howard’s combat action, much of it behind enemy lines. He experienced many months of “eyeball to eyeball” fighting thru Western France, many weeks in the Huertgen Forest, the Battle of the Bulge, crossing the Rhine and on into Germany. He also spoke of the freezing 40 degree

below 0 winter weather without having proper clothing, the constant fatigue, the filthy conditions and the agony of not receiving news from love ones at home.

Howard had one extended period of 154 days of combat action during a time when a new solder on the front lines was lucky if they made it 5 days before they were wounded or killed.

I’m convinced that Howard’s bravery and combat actions, especially behind enemy lines, helped save hundreds, perhaps thousands of Allied troop lives. Howard was connected with the Army for a total of 35 years. He achieved the rank of Chief Warrant Office.

He earned 22 medals, including the Purple Heart, the Combat Infantry Badge, four Battle Stars and the Bronze Star.

Howard told us several times when talking about those medals, awards and promotions that none of that mattered to him, “I just wanted the war to be over and to be able to come home to my wife and family.”

After World War II, Howard returned home to Polk County. He (Continued on page 15)

Melton responds to questions on hospital funds Editor’s note: Following is the full response from Polk County Commissioner Tommy Melton to questions sent by the Bulletin regarding the county’s $285,000 gift to St. Luke’s Hospital last year. An article summarizing the responses from commissioners, candidates and St. Luke's Hospital ran in the Friday, July 23 Bulletin. Look for full responses from other commissioners and candidates in upcoming editions.

Did you approve the $285,000 to be given to St. Luke’s?

Yes I did. I was the commissioner who made the original motion on April 20, 2009 “that this board grant the $285,000 from the sale of James Tool to St. Luke’s Hospital for improvements to the physical building that is owned by the county in order to facilitate and improve the healthcare of the citizens of Polk County, and to strengthen one of the largest employers in Polk County”.

This motion died that evening for lack of a second, but the other commissioners agreed to form a committee to study the issue and revisit the motion. This committee spent several weeks visiting the hospital, poring over facts and figures, and learned a great deal about the hospital’s negative cash flow and loss of business. It was determined that $338,000 was needed to properly equip Dr. Brian Rosenberg’s practice (Phase I). Dr. Rosenberg accounts for over 50 percent of the hospital’s surgeries.

On June 22, 2009 the motion was again brought before the board of commissioners and was passed unanimously. Since that time, we have seen that the $285,000 was spent on the following: a portable xray machine, CPSI OR module, CPSI scheduling module, IT/Fiber optic project, office renovation, orthopedic marketing.

In general, how do you feel about the donation now?

I feel even better now than I did when I made the original motion. St. Luke’s has now seen seven months of financial improvement, according

to Ken Shull, CEO. The $285,000 was well spent on machines, renovations, etc. but the real key to any successful operation is its employees.

St. Luke’s has many highly skilled professionals in addition to all the other valuable employees.

During the tumultuous period of transition, St. Luke’s cut jobs, which put greater demands on the remaining employees, who had to work harder in order to maintain and actually improve productivity.

Patient satisfaction on the overall quality of care and the likelihood to recommend has steadily increased.

Because of a smaller payroll, St. Luke’s has recently been able to raise the employees’ pay by about 2 percent. Even with this, the salaries remain below the N.C. median benchmark.

What assistance do you see the county giving to St. Luke’s in the future?

At this time, approximately 25 percent of the population in Polk County is over the age of 65, compared with a statewide average of 13 percent. Medicine comprises approximately 50 percent of St. Luke’s inpatient discharges, followed by medical cardiology and hip and knee replacement. There is a significant need to recruit primary care physicians to the hospital service area.

There are also other specialties for recruitment consideration such as: obstetrics, gynecology, pediatrics and cardiology.

All these endeavors will require significant amounts of money. John Young, Group Vice President of the Western Region for the Carolinas HealthCare System predicts that in ten years many communities will have lost their hospitals. Try to imagine waking up one day and our beloved hospital was no longer there.

The bottom line is that St. Luke’s Hospital is a vital part of this community, and it is imperative that Polk County government partners with St. Luke’s to insure its future and to maintain the best quality healthcare for all Polk County citizens.

Remembering Tom Mosca Editor's note: In memory of Tom Mosca, long-time chairman of the Block House Steeplechase who died on Wednesday, July 28, the following article is a shortened version of a profile of Mosca that ran in the steeplechase edition of the Bulletin on Friday, April 17, 2009. Funeral services will be held for Mosca tomorrow, 11 a.m., in McFarland Funeral Chapel.

by Katrina Daniel

“Forgive me for not getting up,” says Tom Mosca as I entered his living room, where he is now lying in a hospital bed, hooked up to oxygen and staving off the ravages of Lou Gehrig’s disease as best he can.

He might have lost his health, but Tom Mosca has not lost his sense of humor or his humility.

There are literally thousands of people who over the years have attended the Block House Steeplechase but who will never have the opportunity to meet the man whose hard work has provided them with sport, excitement and a meticulously run horse racing, lawn party/tailgating event for the whole family.

For almost 30 years, tall,

chase track for so many years.

His walkie-talkie inevitably in hand, Tom has been a vital part of the Block House Steeplechase, working at every job, mastering every position, from grunt in the parking lot, directing traffic, to chairman of the steeplechase, a position he held formally for 12 years and informally for many more.

Sadly, those days have come to an end for Tom Mosca.

About three years ago, Tom began to experience pain in his neck.

Thinking the pain was just normal wear and tear; he ignored it for a while. But after an acupuncturist friend treated him, she commented, “There’s something wrong here, and you need to check it out.” So he did and the news was not good. In fact, it was both terrible and terrifying. Tom had contracted Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, so called after the famous baseballer who was also a victim of the progressive degenerative neuromuscular disease. There is no known cure and doctors aren’t even sure what causes ALS, suffice it to say it is a terminal, debilitating and horrible way to end one’s life.

Lorraine Mosca took early retirement from her job as teacher at O.P. Earle Elementary School so she could take care of Tom. She says, “After three months of evaluations (at Duke University) the diagnosis of ALS was confirmed. We were devastated,

shocked, and determined to do everything we could to control the progression of the disease.”

But the disease progressed steadily and just a few short months later, Tom and Lorraine decided to retire to enjoy and spend time with each other and their family and friends, “We decided to travel and enjoy life,” says Lorraine.

Traveling has become too difficult for Tom now and so he rests at home, visited by Hospice of the Carolina Foothills volunteers twice weekly and watching all the news that’s fit to be seen.

But when he was still back in his favorite vocation/avocation as steeplechase chairman, Tom had to be ready to do anything and everything, from making sure the stalls for the visiting racehorses were ready, to appearing before television cameras and radio and newspaper interviews throughout the Carolinas. He was also heavily involved in the Charlotte Steeplechase, the Queen’s Cup, which he helped get off the ground. In fact, last year the founders of the Charlotte Queens Cup took the unusual step of permanently dedicating the first race of their steeplechase and naming it the ‘Thomas M. Mosca Sr. Hurdle.’

Still, Tom’s first love was always closer to home, The Block House.

“Tom really was devoted to the Tryon Riding and Hunt Club and the Steeplechase,” says Cynthia Boyle, longtime TRHC (Continued on page 20)

Spears performs in Saluda Seasoned performer and touring troubadour Doug Spears will be playing at The Wine Cellar at the Saluda Inn Thursday, August 12 at 7 p.m.

Spears blends elements of contemporary folk, Americana, bluegrass, country and folk rock.

Spears is an east coast favorite at festivals, folk clubs, house concerts and listening rooms.

Spears has invested more than 35 years developing his distinctive craft. Often drawing comparisons to some of the best-known and well-established artists of the genre, Spears has carved a niche for himself in folk and Americana music.

Spears was born in Leesburg, Fla., and his best childhood memories tie back to the farmhouse his grandfather built in Lake County in the 1920s. He took up the guitar at age 12, learning on an old Gibson J-45 loaned to him by a family friend, and soon began writing his own songs heavily influenced by the wealth of songwriter poets of

There are any number of good reasons to can meat. For one thing, doing so can save a lot of future cooking (for those times when you need to prepare a meal in a hurry), and it’s also a practical solution to the “overstuffed freezer” problem.

Many people, though, hesitate to go this route, because they think it might be dangerous. However, Polk Extension Serives says that simply isn’t so. Canning meat is as safe as is processing any other low-acid food in the same manner. You just have to follow the correct procedures.

Another form of preserving meat is by drying it (dehydration) Drying or dehydration is the oldest method of food preservation.

Of his Florida homeland, he sings of the unsung and often undiscovered heart of Florida, before Disney World and Margaritaville, a simpler place covered by thousands of acres of palmetto scrub, citrus groves, family farms and cattle range - the Florida he says few know and appreciate.

sary for bacterial growth that eventually causes deterioration.

Successful dehydration depends upon a slow steady heat supply to assure that food is dried from the inside to the outside.

Drying is also an inexact art. Size of pieces, relative moisture, and the method selected all affect the time required to dehydrate a food adequately.

The Polk County Cooperative Extension Services will be offering a Meat Preservation Class on Monday, August 16 at 2 p.m. at the Cooperative Extension Services Office. This class will cover the art of preserving meats, both canning and dehydration.

For more information or to register call the Polk County Extension Services at 828894-8218. Preregistration is required.

FENCE receives $50,000 challenge gift for classrooms The Foothills Equestrian Nature Center in Tryon has received a $50,000 challenge gift from Mr. and Mrs. Baron Newlin of Green Creek as the nature education and outdoor recreation facility opens a campaign for the conversion of ground-floor space in the FENCE Center for nature education classrooms.

The gift, which will be matched by the Newlins dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000, was offered in honor of the late Elettra (Gayle Kidd), a well-known and early supporter of FENCE as well as of the Nature Conservancy, the Sierra Club and the National Wildlife Federation.

The new classroom space, created by renovating an area of the FENCE Center now used for maintenance equipment storage, will consolidate

all nature education activities on one floor of the sprawling building.

FENCE’s school curriculum in nature education, Project F.E.N.C.E., reached 9,772 students in all grade levels in schools in six counties in North and South Carolina during the 2009/2010 school year.

Elettra, as she was always known, demonstrated her support for FENCE during the organization’s early years by making a significant contribution toward the construction of the Kidd Barn, named in honor of her father, at FENCE’s Equestrian Center.

A well-known nature lover, she lived until her death in 2009 at Song Hill, a 64-acre property in Landrum overlooking Lake Lanier. In making the gift to FENCE, the Newlins wished to ensure that Elettra’s

legacy lived on by helping to provide nature education programs for area children.

Matching contributions are being

accepted through March of 2011.

On July 13, Marydell Farm’s three-year-old filly, Donna Hall MF, traveled to Raleigh, N.C., to be presented for inspection by the American Hanoverian Society. This was the first daughter of Don Principe to be presented and Marydell Farm representatives were hopeful that she would excel.

Not just any mare can be bred in this registry – she must first meet a minimum standard. Donna was inspected by Harmut Wilking of Diepoltz, Germany, and Vanessa Carlson of Oklahoma. The comments on her type, conformation and gaits were more positive than expected and Donna Hall MF became one of a handful of top mares to receive the designation Elite Eligible with a score of 7.66. Only about 10 percent of all mares ever inspected will receive that accolade. Donna was also the highest scoring mare of the day and went home with the champion ribbon.

July 14 saw another Don Principe daughter, Divine Destiny, another three-yearold owned and bred by Anita Crause, travel to Columbia, S.C., to do her inspection. Once again, a daughter of Marydell Farm’s stallion outshone the other mares present. DD, as she is known, went home with the high score of the day and

became Elite Eligible.

Only two days later, Marydell Farm traveled to Lexington, Virginia to the Dressage at Lexington Breed Show.

Four horses contested their age and gender open classes and all four triumphed with top scores, earning the top three and the fifth highest of the show.

Donna Hall MF won her three-year-old filly class with a score of 79.5 percent and went on to be the second Reserve Filly Champion.

Delacroix MF, a two-yearold son of Don Principe out of Stellar Hit MF, a Sandro Hit daughter, also showed his style.

Winning with a score of 77.7 percent, “Doc” as he is known on the farm, went on to be the Colt Champion and second Reserve Young Horse.

EM Rising Star MF, an eightyear-old broodmare, traveled along with her filly form this year and won the broodmare class, showing that age does not make a difference in a top quality horse. Rising Star won her class with the second highest score of the show - 79.9 percent and took home both Mare Champion and Mature Horse Champion titles.

She was outscored only by her own daughter, Quintessa MF. (Continued on page 31)

Four clear rules for shedding that weight So many folks, these days, are trying to lose fat, and get in better shape with little, or no real results.

To complicate things even further, there are a myriad of diet pills, shakes, exercise machines, exercise books, and diet plans.

Small wonder most people wanting to lose weight get confused.

Here’s the thing. There are rules for fat loss. Know, and follow the rules, and you stand a good chance of succeeding. Don’t, and you’ll just spin your wheels.

Rule #1) There’s only one way to lose body fat. You can’t sweat it out, you can’t massage it out, you can’t turn fat to muscle, or muscle to fat. These are two different compounds.

For you to lose body fat, fat has to dissolve in your blood stream and travel to your liver. The fat is then metabolized, or “burned” for energy.

Rule #2) Starving yourself won’t work. One thing to remember for a

lifetime is that your body can’t tell foods like fruit and cereal. Polysacthe difference between what you charides: foods like bread, rice, and pasta. choose to do, or you have to do.

Please don’t misunderstand For this reason, if you starve yourself, your body doesn’t know me. You can’t live without sugars that you are choosing not to eat, it (carbohydrates), because they fuel your muscles and just thinks food is unavailable.

Rule #4) You need to gain Rule #3) You have two fuel tanks in your body. You have a fat fuel muscle to lose the fat. Gaining tank, and a sugar fuel tank. Here’s muscle raises your metabolism. In the thing… your body won’t burn other words, for every ounce of muscle you gain, your body burns both tanks at the same time.

In other words, if there is sugar extra calories 24 hours a day to keep (carbohydrate) in your blood stream, it healthy.

Also, if you don’t gain the musyour body won’t go into “Ketosis.”

N.C. Cooperative Extension partners with 10% campaign to promote local foods $35 billion a year on food. If each person spent just 10 percent on food locally – roughly $1.05 per day – then approximately $3.5 billion would be available in the state’s economy.

The Center for Environmental Farming Systems (CEFS) and Cooperative Extension are partners in the campaign. Extension, based at N.C. State and N.C. A&T State universities, serves all the state’s 100 counties and the Eastern Band of the Cherokee. CEFS is a partnership of N.C. State, N.C. A&T State and the N.C.

Tryon Concert Association announces 2010-2011 concert series Earlier this year, the Tryon Concert Association formally announced to its loyal subscribers the programs for its 56th season.

As usual, all performances are presented at the Tryon Fine Arts Center on Melrose Avenue.

The opening concert is at 8 p.m. on Saturday, October 16.

The program features the St. Lawrence String Quartet, one of Canada’s premier chamber ensembles. This world-class group has performed close to 2,000 times during the past 20 years. The group is noted for its particularly imaginative and spontaneous music-making.

The second concert is scheduled for 8 p.m. on Friday, De-

cember 3, and features American classical pianist Jeremy Denk, a graduate of Oberlin College with a degree in music and chemistry.

He also holds a masters degree in music from the University of Indiana and a doctorate in piano performance from the Julliard School.

In 1997, he won the Young Concert Artists International Award. During his illustrious career, he has worked with most of the world’s finest string quartets as well as major orchestras and many noted soloists.

The third concert will be presented at 8 p.m. on Friday, February 25, 2011. Clarinetist Jose Franch-Ballester will display his

artistry. A native of Valencia, Spain, Franch-Ballester is widely considered to be one of the most promising clarinetists of his generation.

In 2004, he also won the Young Concert Artists International Award. He has played throughout the world and has performed with many of the most outstanding artists of our time.

The fourth and final concert of the 2010-2011 concert season will be at 8 p.m., Tuesday, May 3, 2011 and will feature the Grammy Award-winning Chanticleer, the only full-time classical choral ensemble in the United States.

This celebrated group - “an

orchestra of voices” - has been performing a repertoire ranging from Renaissance to jazz, from gospel to avant-garde.

This concert series may still have a limited number of subscriptions available, if you act promptly. The cost of the full, four-concert subscription is what one would expect to pay for a single concert at Lincoln Center or Carnegie Hall where most of the artists have performed.

For subscription information, contact Dorothy Wyckoff at 828-859-6065, or write the Tryon Concert Association at P.O. Box 32, Tryon, NC 28782.

Letter to the Editor

Consider ‘other side of the coin’ on DSS building votes To the Editor: Years ago, my grandfather Hines said to me, “When you hear a story, it’s like a coin you find. Be sure to turn the coin over because there are two sides to every coin and there are two sides to every story”.

My reasons for writing this letter are not to say anything negative regarding Mr. Howard Greene. As I stated Monday night in the commissioners meeting, I have known Howard all my life and I am 66 years young.

Howard Greene is a man that I have loved from my childhood.

Howard Greene was a friend to my family.

I can’t tell you the countless stories that I have enjoyed listening to from Howard regarding

my grandfather Hines, who was Sheriff in Polk County for many years. I have laughed until tears rolled down my cheeks regarding the stories he has reminisced about concerning my family.

Howard Greene has given years of his life volunteering his services to help citizens and veterans all over Polk County.

When you hear about the organizations he belongs to, it seems he never misses a meeting.

This letter is not about Howard Greene. This letter is about the reasons why I voted no on the DSS building. It’s about moving too fast, it’s about potentially spending too much taxpayer money, it’s about over building, it’s about the process and it’s about being kept in the dark.

The proposed DSS building, when completed, will have a total of 11,950 square feet. I have been told that, when completed, there will be seven vacant offices.

Why do we need a building with seven vacant offices? Com-

Massage

missioners Gasperson, Walker and McDermott say you overbuild for potential growth. My understanding of the Department of Social Services is to work to reduce the number of citizens from the rolls of DSS, not expand them.

If you start out building a building that, when completed, will have seven vacant offices, then you are saying, “Let’s continue to grow” when the goal should be to reduce the number of people that are dependent on social services.

Speaking of being kept in the dark, a commissioner is supposed to be made aware of what is going to be presented at a commissioners meeting. I was never made aware of the events and presentations (including a 20 minute slide show on Howard’s many accomplishments, prepared written statements read

by Walker and Gasperson and other featured speakers outlining Mr. Greene’s life) that took place

Monday evening.

Item #9 on the agenda simply stated “Naming of the Proposed Human Services Facility-Commissioner Gasperson requested this item be placed on the agenda.

(Motion to approve)”.

In talking with fellow commissioner Watson, I asked him if he were aware of this and he stated that Commissioner Walker had contacted him about naming the building, but they agreed that it was premature to name the building.

What is disturbing to me is the fact that ground has not even been broken yet on this project, but Commissioners Gasperson, McDermott and Walker had already decided to place Howard Greene’s name on the building and had told him of their plans, so that he would be at the meeting Monday evening.

These three commissioners are the majority; they hold the (Continued on page 39)

purse strings of this county. We are already $56,000 over budget on site preparation alone. With mounting costs in an already economically depressed environment, what better way to get public support/sentiment for this building than to find a popular, respected and community minded citizen and attach his name to the building?

If we can get an emotional attachment, the financial sting won’t be as great. Why else would we be naming a building at this early stage, rather than concentrating on the costs involved in getting the building up?

Some may say that I harmed myself politically by voting the way I did Monday evening. I must disagree. I think a statement like that greatly underestimates the intelligence and level-headedness of our citizens.

It would be so much easier to vote with the “majority”, after all, we know what the outcome will be, anyway. But that’s not me.

That is not what you elected me in the first place to do.

We are all faced with hard decisions every day of our lives, and we all desire to make the right decisions, and not simply go along with the crowd because it is the easy thing to do.

In closing, let me state again my reasons for this letter. My reason for voting no had nothing to do with Howard Greene, but with my convictions concerning the accounting process of this new building.

A lot of citizens were not at the meeting Monday evening.

In fact, there were approximately fifty people in the audience. The population of Polk County is over twenty thousand, so many of you did not have the opportunity to “see the other side of the coin—hear the other side of the story”.

Please note that my position does not represent anyone else’s position or the other members of the county boatd.

AmeriCorps, the federal community service agency, has named the Foothills Equestrian Nature Center as a “Project Conserve” site and has provided annual funding for a staff position in aid of FENCE’s nature education programs.

The funds will be used to support an assistant’s position for Nature Education Director Tracie Hanson, who supervises and implements Project F.E.N.C.E., the nature education and natural history curriculum that now reaches nearly 10,000 students in all grade levels in six North and South Carolina counties.

“Tracie has successfully grown the curriculum to such an extent that she really needs fulltime help,” said FENCE Executive Director Melissa LeRoy. “We’re very proud to join the national network of AmeriCorps sites and grateful for the help of Senator Kay Hagan for her help in facilitating the designation.”

Selected from 26 applicants for the FENCE position was Junie Michel, a graduate of the

Grants available for ‘Add Us In’ initiative for disabled employees $2.3 million available for funding for the ‘Add Us In’ initiative The U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Disability Employment Policy recently announced the availability of approximately $2.3 million in funding for the Add Us In initiative, which will fund up to four cooperative agreements with allotments ranging from $500,000 to $625,000 each.

The initiative is designed to increase the ability of companies to employ individuals with disabilities, particularly businesses

owned and operated by AfricanAmericans; Asian-Americans; Latino or Hispanic Americans; members of federally recognized tribes and Native Americans; lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals; and women.

“This administration is committed to broadening job opportunities for all Americans, including individuals with disabilities,” said Secretary of Labor Hilda L. Solis. “The Add Us In initiative aims to help businesses develop effective, replicable models, strategies and policies to ensure people with disabilities have access to a broader range of employment opportunities.”

Eligible applicants are consortia having representation from each of the following four organization types: 1) An association of targeted businesses, a business association located in a target population community, or other similar entity; 2) a disabilityserving organization; 3) a local workforce investment board or other organization with demonstrated experience in providing training and employment-related support services, such as a OneStop Career Center; 4) and a youth-serving organization.

In addition to developing models, strategies and policies to improve employment opportuni-

ties for people with disabilities, a consortium must also form and strengthen connections among the four organization types by building a network of disability and diversity experts.

The full announcement for this grant opportunity can be found at www.grants.gov or www.dol.gov/odep. Applications will be accepted until September 1. In addition, there will be a prospective applicant webinar held for this grant competition.

The date and access information for the webinar will be posted on ODEP’s website in the near future at www.dol.gov/odep.

Ten Broek, longtime TROT volunteer, wins regional award The North American Riding for the Handicapped Association (NARHA) has named longtime TROT volunteer Carol Ten Broek of Tryon as the 2010 Volunteer of the Year for Region 3, which encompasses North and South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia. Ten Broek is now eligible for NARHA’s National Volunteer Of The Year award to be announced at the organization’s annual meeting in Denver in November.

Ten Broek serves as TROT’s volunteer coordinator, recruiting new volunteers and scheduling volunteer assignments for TROT lessons. “Carol was just about the very first person who came forward to volunteer when TROT was first announced seven years ago,” said program coordinator Norm Powers. “She built a volunteer list virtually

from scratch and makes sure there are adequate volunteers for each rider’s lesson. She’s a great example of how volunteerism can positively affect people’s lives.”

Ten Broek will be attending the NARHA annual meeting in November as a guest of honor and will be acknowledged during the meeting’s annual banquet.

TROT teaches horseback riding skills to special needs adults and children, and is recognized

by NARHA as a Premier Accredited Center. It will be holding its summer volunteer training on Tuesday, August 24, starting at 6 p.m. in FENCE’s great room.

Fall classes serving nearly 20 riders from Polk, Rutherford, Hendersonville, Greenville and Spartanburg counties will begin on Saturday, September 11.

Lee C. Mulligan, Esq. Competing interests of a blended family

Q. What are some of the issues that arise in a blended family? a. Your children versus your new spouse – who is to get what assets and when?

If your spouse dies first will you divide your assets among your children and stepchildren equally when you die? are you treating assets that were acquired during your marriage the same way you treat assets acquired before your marriage?

Do you wish to make gifts to your children during your lifetime even if it means your spouse will have less after your death?

If your spouse has a close relationship with his or her children and you don’t, are you still going to treat the children equally?
