Experience of a lifetime Williamson participates in Honor Flight by Barbara Tilly
When Joe Williamson of Tryon got off the plane in Columbia, S.C. recently, he was greeted by the Fort Jackson military band, playing to honor Williamson and the other veterans who were returning from an Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. The band was only one of the special honors the group received during their trip. They were allowed to bypass the security procedures because, as one official said, “You guys fought and protected us; now is our chance to honor you.” (Continued on page 3)

Tryon sewage woes continue Resident asks town who is liable when sewage backs up by Leah Justice
The Town of Tryon continues to have issues with sewage spills along East Howard Street. Eunice Whitmire spoke to Tryon
Town Council on June 19 about her sewage problem. Whitmire said she frequently has sewage spill into her yard and house during heavy rains. She said the town recently put a cap on the manhole so sewage can’t come up, and she asked the town who is going to do the clean-up when the sewage comes in

Tryon finds another homeowner with septic tank paying for sewer Council discusses need for policy on reimbursement by Leah Justice
The Town of Tryon has discovered another home inside town limits whose residents have been paying for town sewer service although the home is not connected and has a septic tank. Council discussed the recent discovery June 21. After detailed discussions on what it costs the town to hook properties up to
• Sewage woes (continued from page 1)
her house because it no longer can spill out from the manhole. “My question for the day is who is going to be liable?” Whitmire asked council. “They put a cap on (the manhole) so sewer can’t come up. Who’s liable when that thing backs up? Where’s the water going?” Council discussed the town’s ongoing problem with sewage backing up into Whitmire’s yard and home and said the town is liable for the problem and the clean up. “We are (liable) and that’s the bottom line,” said councilman Roy Miller. “Those things need to be done. If the town can’t do it then we need to get a contractor to do it. We shouldn’t have town sewage [spill] and just leave it. We should not have this lady going out in her yard and smelling sewer and it’s not her fault.” Whitmire approached council last month after heavy rains and council decided that the town would clean up Whitmire’s yard and house whenever spills occurred. The town has applied for a grant to replace the sewer line along East Howard Street, which has been estimated at more than $600,000.
sewer service, council decided a policy is needed regarding reimbursement. The latest discovery involved a renter who had been paying for town sewer for approximately three years. The case discovered most recently was on West Livingston Street. The drain fill was determined to be faulty, so the town connected the home to city service. Another case was discovered in December 2011, when Lorina Cunningham had been paying for town sewer for the last 21 years.
The town tapped Cunningham’s home onto sewer and reimbursed her for the last five years of payment, or $1,986.89. State law says the town can reimburse homeowners for the last two years of payment. Council decided a policy is needed because the cost of hooking homes up to sewer service usually equals more than two years of paying for service with the town. A sewer tap fee costs $850, plus any pipe that is needed and man hours. In the recent case, the renter had paid approximately $1,300 for
service. Council discussed whether the policy should be that if any new cases are discovered, the homeowner will not be charged for sewer taps but will also not be reimbursed for service fees paid. The town plans to draft a policy and discuss it during the August meeting, as the town does not meet in July. For in-town residents who have septic tanks, the town’s policy is to maintain the septic tanks, such as paying for pumping.
Council members expressed concern last week that Whitmire’s yard had not yet been cleaned. Tryon Public Works Director Joel Burrell said engineer John Hollifield visited the area to see what could be done to help the situation. Burrell said
they looked to see if a ditch could be dug to the creek, but the town was advised by the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to put a three-foot riser on the lid of the manhole and cap it. “(Whitmire) should not have
overflow on that manhole but there is potential it will go in her house,” Burrell said. Last month the town said it would clean up any spills occurring at Whitmire’s home and said if multiple backflow (Continued on page 6)

Whitmire has detailed graphic occurrences over the past couple of years of sewage backing up into her bathtub and toilet paper and sewage running in her front yard following heavy rains. “If they put the backflow in, it might work, it might not,” Whitmire said. “It’s going to come (in the house).” Council members were again sympathetic to Whitmire, saying they hate she has to live in that house. “It sounds like our people need to do what it takes,” said Tryon Mayor Alan Peoples. “I’m sorry you have to live there. We can fix your yard.” Councilman Doug Arbogast agreed. He said the town needs to do the clean-up the next day no matter what it costs. “If it was my house or your house we would want something done,” Miller said. Miller also mentioned the

town has an ordinance that fines people if raw sewage is spilling on the ground, so the town is not adhering to its own ordinance.

Tryon, not quite a ghost town yet, but still in need of a boost The Tryon Daily Bulletin’s article, “Business owner: Tryon a ‘ghost town,’” certainly grabbed your attention last week and caused many of you to publicly comment on the economic climate in Tryon. Some of you agreed with business owner Mary Prioleau’s assertions that there is not enough foot traffic in Tryon and that we all should be concerned by the increasing number of empty storefronts along our main street. Others of you were frustrated with the paper for publishing the article in the first place, saying, “It will only make things worse.” The truth of the matter is that Tryon has lost several businesses along North Trade Street this year and is set to lose two more – artist Richard Baker and Kathleen’s Gallery both are in the process of moving to Saluda. This is not to say Tryon’s downtown is doomed. But we cannot ignore the issue staring straight at us. Not making people conscious of this problem will make the problem worse. Not being proactive about what can be done to attract businesses to our storefronts, especially on Trade Street, will make it worse. Not getting more people involved in already ongoing efforts will make the problem worse. Also published last week was the article, “Tryon unveils Depot Plaza proposal.” This article goes to show that there are people working to find solutions. The project aims to better connect the Depot Plaza with Trade Street and is part of an overall streetscape plan to enhance the look of downtown. In the latest Tryon Downtown Development Association newsletter, projects were mentioned such as hanging historical markers on downtown buildings and adding flower baskets to streetlamps. TDDA is also looking into a program to make cyclists feel more welcome in town by encouraging merchants to allow cyclists to use restrooms and to promote that the Rogers Park restrooms are also available. The hope is that these people will recognize the hospitality shown to them and return with (Continued on page 9)

Comments made at www.tryondailybulletin.com Tryon Daily Bulletin posted the article titled: “Commissioners debate water line to CooperRiis” Ellen Jeffries of Green Creek said: “I keep scratching my head about all the organizations/businesses that claim notfor-profit status. Having been involved in obtaining that status for an organization, it seems to me to be a legal designation that has only to do with whether they pay taxes or not, and can (and frequently does) have nothing to do with much else. Not to take anything away from the good work CooperRiis surely does, it seems to me that their not-for-profit status is a legal nicety that exempts them from paying taxes on the money they take in but certainly doesn’t and shouldn’t entitle them to having the taxpayers fund their infra-structure needs. If government keeps spending taxpayer money so liberally they will bring more and more families to their knees financially. Instead of thinking about how nice it would be if someone had free government services, how about thinking about those of us who have to pay for it, please. That money isn’t yours to spend willy-nilly. Really it isn’t! Tryon Daily Bulletin posted the article titled: “Business owner: Tryon a ‘ghost town’” David Widdicombe said: “It’s already getting EXCITING! Soon the ghosts will have to haunt another town. Today (Monday, June 25th) I noticed that there’s brown paper over the windows of the ex Elmo’s Pub, so that means pro-active things are in the works coming-soon with possible new restaurant/lounge. I know that Pete & Crew are gathering food service equipment for a soon to be new Pub and restaurant too (McGourty’s)… The www.downtowntryon. org now (as of Sunday, June 24th afternoon) has some of the
property listings back on website and more to come, so that potential renters and buyers can learn about and contact property owners. While talking to Richard Baker (artist, moving to Saluda in July) Saturday afternoon, we watched a woman walking around in Ghost Town, stopping in at businesses, looking in windows came up and said she drove from Marion just to support downtown Tryon. So add one ghostbuster to the mix. While the town was fairly empty Saturday, there was action at the old Wine Bar location, with sales of dishes, antiques, nicknacks and a crowd was coming and going — and later in the day, after 5 p.m. , cars started filling empty parking spaces for the Art Walk, so from semi-dead to alive in a matter of hours. While some might consider the loss of business a tragedy, others will look at it as an opportunity for potential lower rent and a void to fill. Would not be surprised if the Ghost Town article and reaction to it, might attract ghost-busters to fill the store fronts with new ideas and hopefully, smart, needed businesses. I still say the people most neglected are the LOCAL people and there’s a few thousand within a few miles that would shop local if they could get the things they need here, instead of there... Food is a given as a needed things. What else, here in Tryon? A massage parlor (no joke) with chairs and tables to unwind those achey muscles would be a healthy, simple to start business and charge by 1/2 hour and hour for hard working people and seniors with achy-breaky-bones. Massage keeps the quacks away. Because of big box store buying power, it’s hard for a small retailer to purchase to resell. A way around that is to buy via closeouts and offer those needed things at a fair price. A 100 question/questionaire mailed to local zip codes (only costs 14 cents)

Go here: http://www.bls. gov/data/inflation_calculator.htm and just type in $100… $100 in 1980 had the same buying power as $278 today.

Beautifying downtown and making sure people feel welcome will go a long way – it’s why so many people say they feel so attracted to other towns, such as Saluda, for example.

St. Luke’s Hospital honors Nell Deaver, volunteer with 6,000 hours, 36 years of service
A face you will see every Wednesday at the reception desk, Nell Deaver (center) has been a volunteer at St. Luke’s Hospital since 1976. She began volunteering two years after she moved to Polk County. Having worked in healthcare as a physical therapist, Deaver said it was a natural fit for her to volunteer at St. Luke’s Hospital. “I love coming here and seeing people I know,” said Nell. “It’s so nice to be able to catch up with people I may not have seen in years, but I see them when they visit!” Deaver was recognized for her years of service with a special plaque awarded by Ken Shull, St. Luke’s CEO (left), and Wendy Field, St. Luke’s Hospital Auxiliary president.

West led a Spade against 3NT. Upon reviewing his winners South counted 2 Spades, 3 Hearts and 3 or 4 Clubs (depending on the location of the Club King). It’s not unreasonable for declarer to lead a Heart to dummy
and finesse for the Club King – but it is wrong. Let me explain. If the King is offside, a Spade continuation limits declarer to only 8 tricks. The key here is that declarer loses tempo if the Club finesse is wrong. Playing the Heart to dummy is correct but not to take the Club finesse, you should first try the “indirect” Diamond finesse at trick 3. This approach guarantees a minimum of 9 winners, provided that the opening bidder (East) has either the Diamond Ace or the Club King – a virtual certainty based on East’s opening bid. If East rises with the Diamond Ace and continues Spades, Declarer ducks once and then returns to dummy with for the Club finesse. If East plays small on the Diamond play, declarer plays his King. If West had the Ace, which is not likely, declarer now must have a sure thing in the Club finesse. Three things you should remember from this hand: 1. Take the “indirect” Diamond finesse before the “direct” Club finesse 2. Lose the “inevitable” trick before the “maybe” one 3. When deciding between 2 suits on which to attack first, choose the one in which you are missing the higher card.

A Summer Tracks favorite with fans of all ages, Russ Wilson and his Swing Orchestra take the stage at Rogers Park in Tryon on June 29, sponsored by the Purple Onion and Heartwood Gallery, both of Saluda. Beginning at 7 p.m., Wilson and his orchestra will fill the park with the big band sounds of the 1930s and 1940s. Playing well-known pieces by Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey and Benny Goodman, the orchestra will also delight audiences with more obscure yet classic swing selections by Fletcher Henderson, Don Redman and Duke Ellington. Joining Russ (perched at the drums) and his 12 swing experts is the voice of the lovely and talented Simone Bernhard. As with all Summer Tracks concerts, the show is free, though a voluntary donation at the gate is encouraged. Audience donations along with the sponsorships of local businesses make these shows possible. Again, JR’s wood-fired pizzas,
