Residents pay a small entry fee for a chance to guess the amount of money in the jug. The person whose guess is closest to the actual amount in the jug will win the money. The winner will be announced in November. The proceeds from the fundraiser will be given to the city of Saluda for the restoration of city hall. Rhodes, who is a lifelong resident of Saluda, regularly bought $50 of coins at the bank, picked out the valuable pennies, and put the other coins in the jug. (submitted by Terry Baisden)

Tryon Garden Club wins grant from Polk community foundation The Polk County Community Foundation recently awarded two Kirby grants to the Tryon Garden Club for civic beautification and Pearson’s Falls erosion control. In keeping with the mission of the Tryon Garden Club to contribute to the beautification of Tryon, the organization has maintained the Tryon depot garden since 1948. Garden club officials requested funds from the Kirby Tryon Garden Club special projects fund to enhance the garden after the depot’s recent renovations. Included improvements were pruning of trees, cleanup, mulch and planting of new bushes at the garden. The Tryon Garden Club has owned and maintained Pearson’s Falls and the surrounding glen since 1931. Pearson’s Falls has received (Continued on page 4)

state and national recognition for its preservation of more than 200 species of native trees, as well as a number of rare flowering plants and ferns. In 2010, more than 20,000 visitors enjoyed the glen as they walked the trail to the 90-foot waterfall. An unrestricted grant from The Polk County Community Foundation for erosion control was awarded to the Tryon Garden Club in October 2010 to assist in
the abatement of the significant wash and damage to the drive to the glen. An additional grant from the Kirby Tryon Garden Club Pearson’s Falls trail maintenance fund was awarded in June 2011 that allowed the club to plant ferns at Pearson’s Falls for continued erosion control and tree removal on the trail north of the picnic area to maintain access to the falls.

Sculpture by Lalage Warrington
Campobello artists’ work on display in Spartanburg gallery Campobello sculptor Lalage Warrington will be a featured artist at the Artists’ Guild of Spartanburg in August. The show, entitled “Feeling and Form,” will include her work along with that of painter Kate Thayer. It will be on display throughout August in the Guild Gallery at the Chapman Cultural Center in Spartanburg. It is free for public viewing Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. The last exhibiting day will be Saturday, Aug. 27. The reception will be on Thursday, Aug. 18. This free cultural event will feature a brief artists’ discussion and question-and-answer session starting at 5 p.m. Warrington is a native of Spartanburg who now lives and works in the countryside of Campobello. In addition to her studio work, Warrington has taught sculpting extensively at the Chapman Cultural Center and Converse College. She
has produced more than 25 commissioned busts, and her bust of Walter S. Montgomery II, Spartanburg textile executive, is on permanent display at the Spartanburg County Foundation. During her long career, Warrington once did facial reconstructions of clay on skeletal remains to help identify crime victims. As an artist, Warrington says, “I suppose I am basically an abstract expressionist for I struggle to express feeling in whatever I create. This pertains to representational, figurative, 2-D, 3-D, abstract or whatever it happens to be. On viewing one of my pieces, it is hoped that the eye can travel easily from one area to the next with the end result of an expressed feeling.” For more information call 864764-9568 or visit www.artistsguildofspartanburg.com. – article submitted by Steve Wong

ham and Sarah’s hosting of the three strangers at the Oaks of Mamre (Genesis 18), to the Lord’s Supper, Jesus’ meals with Pharisees and tax collectors, to the miracle of the feeding of the 5,000. You can see food and meals play an important role in the Bible. In fact more than 22 different stories about Jesus in the New Testament have to do with food. Food matters. Not just to survive, but to live. Think of your family celebrations: birthdays, anniversaries, Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, wedding receptions, and even memorial services. Food is often the centerpiece of our gatherings with family and friends.
To get a sense of the significance of food in our community, you only have to get in the car and go to one of several of our Polk County farmers markets, or the Blue Ridge Barbecue and Music Festival, or one of the many dinners sponsored by local churches and clubs. Our community is home to numerous farms and vineyards. A few miles south of the church farmers grow delicious strawberries and peaches. A few miles north they grow apples. We have much to be thankful for. Yet, across our world starvation and malnutrition are big issues. Even in Polk County children and adults suffer

The Tryon United Methodist Church (TUMC) will hold a backto-school bash on Saturday, Aug. 13 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Free school supplies will be handed out to the first 100 students. Hot dogs, chips and drinks will be available free to all who attend, as well as free back-to-school haircuts. An air-filled bouncy house and obstacle course will be set up for children, and gifts of appreciation will be available for local teachers. “If you see a police car or a fire truck, don’t be afraid that the building’s on fire,” said organizer Bob Bailey. “We’ve invited a police officer and a fire fighter to join us and answer questions. A representative from the health department will also be on hand.” Bailey added that the church has started a year-round project to collect winter coats and share them with students in need. Some of those coats will be available during the event for interested parents. “We have a special place in our hearts for the children in our com-

Apodaca receives Sunshine Award from Democracy N.C. N.C. Senator Tom Apodaca, who represents Polk, Henderson and Polk counties, is one of 22 state legislators to receive a “Sunshine Award” from the watchdog group Democracy North Carolina. The biennial award is given to lawmakers who file campaign finance reports revealing important details about who gave them campaign donations and how they spent the money. Democracy North Carolina evaluated the campaign reports of all 170 legislators elected in 2010 to determine award recipients. This year’s award winners included nine Democrats and 13 Republicans. You can obtain more details about the award and download a list of all recipients at http://www. democracy-nc.org/downloads/
SunshineAwardsPR2011.pdf. Winners of the Sunshine Award filed all of their 20092010 campaign finance reports on time in a format accessible to the public; identified the purpose of 99 percent of all expense items over $50; and listed the economic interest or employer information for more than 98 percent of the all individuals giving them more than $50. The electronic format of campaign finance reports is favored because a backlog in board of elections processing can render paper-based reports virtually inaccessible to the public for years, while electronic reports are quickly and easily accessed. – article submitted by Katy Munger, Democracy North Carolina
