Ben Seymour suffers from “instrument acquisition syndrome.” Hundred-year-old restored guitars hang from his walls. Patterns and stacks of wood lying in wait to create dulcimers and mandolins cover his workshop. “I don’t have a living room, we just have instruments everywhere – they are falling out in the floor,” he said. Seymour’s drawn to every detail – the precise shape and curve of the wood, the tension of strings, the historic materials used to craft each piece. “It’s basically just an attraction to music,” Seymour said. Seymour sat down for his first piano lesson when he was 6 years old. He danced his fingers across the piano for 13 years, but said later in his teen years it was hard picking up (Continued on page 4)

Columbus seeks $10k in pledges from community to save Fab 4th fireworks by Leah Justice

The Town of Columbus is running out of time to decide whether the Fabulous 4th of July celebration will include fireworks this year.

girls playing the piano. Seymour said you could, however, hit on girls with a guitar slung around your back. At 17, he picked up his first guitar and began what grew to be a lifelong love of music. After high school, Seymour moved to Knoxville to attend the University of Tennessee. It was there he met the other love of his life, Becky Cleland, in philosophy of esthetics, an art class. Cleland said his personality was infectious. “Ben is so gregarious and fun, everybody loves him the moment they meet him and I think that has helped him so much along the way,” Cleland said. Eventually, through his brother Wayne, who is also deeply entwined with the music community, Seymour crossed paths with well-known dulcimer player Lois Hornbostle.

the dulcimer.” He refers to the “dulcimers” sold at these events as DSOs or dulcimer–shaped objects; better used as wall art. While he doesn’t think accessibility of music is ever a bad thing, he said the dulcimer’s reputation leads many to ignore the complex sounds one can produce with the instrument. “There is so much more you can do with a dulcimer,” Seymour said. “Playing across the notes, you’re playing lead lines – you can hang with the big boys, so to speak.” The Green Creek musician and luthier (someone who creates and repairs stringed instruments) began playing with the big boys decades ago – he started constructing dulcimers and guitars in 1982. He’s created Paraguayan harps, travel guitars, mandolins, custom ukuleles and Irish bouzoukis, which are, as Seymour calls them, “mandolins on ste-

Mercer Museum in Pennsylvania. He’s studied photographs of the instruments and detailed descriptions from the museum curator but wants more interaction with these rare instruments – his passion. One of his more unexpected requests was to construct a Langeleik – a Norwegian zither that has not been regularly built since the 1700s. The language issue alone presented enough barriers to Seymour collecting information on the instrument. The fact that maybe only a handful of people in Norway even know much about the instrument was another. Then there’s the added fact that the Langeleik isn’t an easy piece to carve. “It’s this elaborate thing that was just boogerish to do,” he said. The more boogerish the better, though, said Seymour, who relishes in the chance to tackle even the most difficult instrument project. To learn more of Seymour’s work, visit www.kudzupatch.net.

Landrum to work with Hampton County for drug enforcement by Leah Justice

Landrum City Council approved a mutual aid agreement last week with the Hampton County (S.C.) Sheriff’s Office to help with Landrum’s drug enforcement. Landrum City Council met Tuesday, Jan. 18 and approved an agreement to allow a specialized drug enforcement officer to work in Landrum a couple times a month. The mutual aid agreement was needed in Landrum K9 officer Sgt. Jason Coffin with order for a Hampton Bruno. (photo by Leah Justice) County officer to have jurisdiction in Landrum. Landrum Police Lt.

can raise the money. She urged the town to go forward with the contract and raise the money in the meantime. “From talking to people in town, people would like to have the fireworks,” said Kan. “That’s a big part of the Fourth of July. I say let’s go for it.” Other council members did not seem as confident that the town could raise the money. “I see the fireworks from my house and they are great,” said councilman Michael Gage, “but it’s not my money. I can’t go on a gamble because it’s not my money to do it.” Mayor Eric McIntyre and councilman Richard Hall also expressed concern. “If we don’t have any money right now, how much are we

going to have by July?” asked Hall asked. McIntyre said almost $10,000 is a lot to go for. He said it would be one thing if the town was asking for a couple thousand, but that’s not the case. Council decided to ask Zambelli for a one-month extension that would push the deadline to the end of February. If the deadline is extended, the town and committee plans to ask the community for pledges by the deadline and if enough pledges are obtained, the town will continue with the contract. Columbus has held a Fourth of July celebration downtown for decades. Festival costs have increased steadily, and council decided last year that it could not continue to pay for the festival. The town will still hold a festival this year, but it will be more community based.

Hanukkah, or Chanukah, is a Jewish celebration that is also known as the Festival of Lights. Hanukkah is an eight-day celebration, most notably marked with the lighting of the menorah. The menorah is a candleholder that holds nine candles; the main eight candles and a “helper” candle called a shamash, which is used to light all eight candles. This tradition is derived from a story found in the Talmud about a man named Judas Maccabaeus, or Judah Maccabee. Around 170 B.C., the ruler Epiphanes tried to force the Greek gods upon the Jews.

The Boy Scouts of America

Word Search n the puzzle below.

The Boy Scouts of America was officially founded on February 8, 1910, by William D. Boyce. The program was modeled after a similar group formed in London, England, in 1908 by a man named Robert Baden-Powell. During a visit to London, Mr. Boyce was aided by a scout, often referred to as the “Unknown Scout,” who aided him with directions and then refused to accept a tip. It was upon his return to the states that he had the Boy Scouts, or BSA, incorporated. Early predecessors to the official program included the YMCA (Young Men’s Christian Association), the Sons of Daniel Boone Organization founded by Daniel Carter Beard, the Woodcraft Indians founded by Ernest Thompson Seton, and the American Boy Scouts founded by William Randolph Hearst. Many other smaller organizations were also active during this era, and most all of them, except for the YMCA, were eventually merged with the Boy Scouts. Today there are approximately 120,000 Boy Scout Units in the United States. The mission of the Boy Scouts is to provide young men with values and morals that will help them with a lifetime of decision making and to teach them skills to reach their full potential. It is a highly organized group with different levels for boys starting at seven years to age 20. Young scouts begin with the Cub Scouts, followed by the Boy Scouts, and lastly, the Venturing program. These groups do many things, including meetings, volunteering in the community, and field trips which include camping. Through these activities they earn badges as they achieve new skills, all while learning the values stated in the Scout Law and keeping the Scout Oath.

Too few specialists, overburdened general practitioners and inadequately funded programs such as Medicare, already straining under today’s burdens of only 30-million seniors could combine to form the perfect storm for aging. Add to those facts the impact of Alzheimer’s disease. Today with almost 5-million Americans suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, doctors are diagnosing one new case every 71 seconds. One out of every eight Americans 65 and older is being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and it’s even worse for those at age 85. In the 85-plus group, half of all seniors face the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. Of the elderly diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, the majority are women who outlive men, meaning there are new concerns regarding their spending their later years widowed and often in or near poverty. Those numbers will increase from the current five million cases today to more than 30 million by 2030. As you contemplate aging, and delight in the prospect of living to 80, 90 or longer, be careful what you ask for, because aging isn’t for sissies, and as of today, your prospects of a financially sound and healthy future face staggering odds and challenges. Ron Kauffman is a geriatric care manager and certified senior advisor. He is the author of Caring for a Loved One with Alzheimer’s Disease, available at www.seniorlifestyles.net, where you can also listen to his weekly Podcasts. He can be reached at 561-818-0039 or by email at drron407@bellsouth.net.

The agricultural community can take advantage of upcoming business training by attending an information session at the Mill Spring Agricultural Development Center in Mill Spring on Jan. 27 from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. In this session, participants will learn about crafting a solid business plan: developing a mission statement, estimating startup and overhead costs, setting profit goals, projecting cash flow, marketing, licensing and record-keeping. Mountain BizWorks is a nonprofit organization that provides training, financing and opportunities through business development and capital. The mission of Mountain BizWorks is to inspire entrepreneurs who have viable business ideas and the discipline to follow through and to build economic opportunities through business training and capital. Through this foundation, clients will be able to access the resources they need to create successful businesses. Mountain BizWorks has assisted many new business owners, but this session will have a special emphasis on agriculture. Agricultural businesses can vary from on-the-ground farm operations to value added products and agritourism to services for the equestrian operations. An effort is being made to reconnect residents and local businesses to an agricultural and economic heritage. Agriculture, including the equestrian operations, is the biggest business in Polk County. Finally, with the current trends to buy local healthy foods and encourage small businesses, agriculture can prove the base for new business development. The business training is conducted in a peer group environment to promote a variety of business ideas, so the feedback participants receive from one another is more comprehensive. The eight-week business training class will begin on Feb.

10, 2011. Pre-registration is required. This project was supported by the Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program of the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, USDA, Grant # 2010-49400-21817.

CABA presents food safety act program Jan. 27 Community Agri-Business Alliance (CABA) will meet on Thursday, Jan. 27 at 6 p.m. at the Mill Spring Agricultural Center, located at 156 School House Road in Mill Spring. Guest speaker Lynn Sprague, Polk County Agricultural Economic Development Director, will lead a discussion on the new state food safety act and how it will affect small farmers. The conversation style program will include a question and answer session that will give attendees the opportunity to find out more about this issue. The event is free and open to the public, with food provided in potluck style. CABA is a membership organization for the support and development of Mountain BizWorks Alumni in Polk County and surrounding areas in partnership with the Polk County Office of Agricultural Economic Development. For the past 20 years Mountain BizWorks has been committed to celebrating the spirit of small business ventures in

Western North Carolina, with the fundamental commitment to economic empowerment. The focus of this particular alliance has a special emphasis on agriculture, but the friends of agriculture are also encouraged to participate. The Polk County Office of Agricultural Development is focused on both creating new agricultural businesses and enhancing existing operations as part of a rural development and community strategy. This project was supported by the Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program of the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, USDA, Grant # 2010-49400-21817. Anyone interested in learning more about the food safety act is encouraged to bring a dish and enjoy the peer group environment and networking session on Thursday, Jan., 27 from 6 - 8 p.m. For more information call Jo Ann Miksa-Blackwell at 828894-5096 or Lynn Sprague at 828-894-2281. – article submitted
