Landrum helps Fox ‘Celebrate Carolinas’ by Barbara Tilly
A gala called “All Morris, All the Time” will be held Saturday, July 28 from 6-9 p.m. in Gallery One at the Tryon Fine Arts Center.

On Monday, July 23, Landrum was featured in a live broadcast as part of Fox News’ “Celebrate the Carolinas” series on WHNS Channel 21. The filming crew set up on the deck outside Foothills Amish
Furniture in downtown Landrum and filmed interviews, performances and other activities from 5-9 a.m. Landrum Mayor Bob Briggs kicked off the day at 5 a.m. Live music was provided by Project X. Also featured were Jay
Lichty, multi-instrumentalist and luthier, and Doug Rostick, one of the musicians performing in the Landrum Library’s upcoming “New Harmonies” series of concerts. (Continued on page 3)

One month until students return to school by Samantha Hurst
Families in Polk County and Landrum will check off items on supply lists over the next month as they prep for the start of another school year. Landrum schools return to the classroom Aug. 20, while Polk
students now know they will return Aug. 27 and remain in school until June 7. Landrum schools will end their year May 31. The length of Polk County’s school year had been in question until late June, when the school board voted to revert to a 180-day calendar. Last school year, the
Serving Polk County and Upper Spartanburg and Greenville Counties
system had added an additional three days to its calendar per a state mandate that was expected to eventually require students to be in classes a total of 185 days each year. Polk County Schools Superin(Continued on page 4)

Police asking for public’s help by Leah Justice
Tryon’s ABC store, located at 354 South Trade Street, was broken into around midnight Friday, July 20/Saturday, July 21, according to the Tryon Police Department. Police chief Jeff Arrowood said glass at the store was broken in order to gain entry. The police department has

tendent Bill Miller said the back and forth has been confusing for local school leaders and parents. “We were under the impression last year that by this year the state would have put the money in place to go all five days,” Miller said, explaining why students went an additional three days last year. He said the hope was to slowly ease faculty and families into the longer calendar. “Unfortunately they didn’t provide the funds and left us wondering what to do next,” he said. So, Polk County Schools will again attend school 180 days this year, with students’ last day being a half-day on June 7. Miller said the only caveat is that the calendar has only two to three days built in for weather related cancelations. If the area sees another mild winter like this past year the schedule will remain in place, but if school days must be canceled because of excessive bad weather, it will put the system into a longer year, Miller said. This calendar also allows eight school days off for students during Christmas break and splits spring break away from Easter because Easter falls
surveillance at the ABC store, which showed a male suspect wearing a dark colored hoodie and blue jeans taking an undisclosed amount of liquor from the store. Arrowood said the department is working on some leads at this time. Damage to the store has been repaired. Anyone with information or who may have seen something in the South Trade Street area that night is urged to call the Tryon Police Department at 828-859-9195. early next year. Spring break is scheduled April 22-26 this coming school year. Spartanburg County Schools’ students will attend school 180 days as well. That system will hold spring break April 1-5. Meanwhile, North Carolina school administrators will spend another year trying to determine how to work with state legislators’ desire to have kids in classrooms more hours. At the end of its recent legislative session, North Carolina approved allowing school systems in the state to decide between keeping kids in school either 185 days or 1,025 total hours. Miller said this issue only complicates matters further. “That really is bad business – it’s going to make it very complicated because you are going to have a lot of opinions as to how many days students should go,” Miller said. “In Polk we try to put a lot of emphasis on instructional time anyway, so we could potentially fit those hours into many fewer days… but [fewer days] would make things harder on parents who already struggle to find childcare in the summer.” To view the full calendar for Polk County schools, visit www.polkschools.org.

We’re here to deliver life’s greatest treasures. Erin Elmore of Mill Spring has always received great care when she’s been a patient at Rutherford Regional. All four of her children have been born here. “I’ve chosen to come back each time because I’ve been so pleased with my care,” Erin says. Her experiences have always been enhanced by what she calls the “little extras.” She especially praised the ability to have meals delivered at convenient times, and the photographs of her newborn also helped make her visit special. “They are absolutely beautiful pictures,” she says. “It’s something the staff doesn’t have to do, but it means so much to me.” Having an experienced nurse to answer her questions only a phone call away is another one of those extras. “It’s nice to be able to call Lucy (Calhoun, childbirth and women’s health coordinator) and say ‘Lucy, it’s Erin,’ and she knows exactly who you are.” The Birth Place at Rutherford Regional offers compassionate, personalized care before, during and after your baby is born.

Family of runners gives back through running club, events The Tryon Running Club (TRC) is a grassroots running club that started as a social group and is now a full-fledged nonprofit with members poised to give back while doing what they love —running. For its first official event, TRC is organizing Tryon’s first half marathon Nov. 17, which is a 13.1-mile out-andback course. TRC members Craig, Kathryn and Colin Gillie said they are excited about being a part of this inaugural race. Craig is training to run his first half marathon, while his wife, Kathryn, and their son, Colin, will volunteer at registration and along the course. Their business, The Mail Room in Landrum, is an event sponsor. Proceeds from the first Tryon Half Marathon will be donated to Thermal Belt Outreach Ministry. “Volunteerism is very important to our family,” said Kathryn, vice president of t h e Tr y o n R u n n i n g C l u b . “I believe that supporting local merchants and charities is the way a community serves its members best. We have been involved with the Tryon Running Club for two years. Our group is made up of every kind of runner from walk-runners to triathletes. Any and all level of runners are welcome and encouraged to join us.” The Gillie family said they love supporting local racing events and even started their

Phyllis H. Crain
Dr. Phyllis Horne Crain, 55, inspiring, gifted and inventive director, visionary and leader of The Crossnore School since 1999, passed away peacefully in her home on the school’s campus surrounded by loving family on Wednesday, July 18, 2012, after a longstanding, hard-fought battle with cancer. Invoking the resolute and open-hearted spirit of school founder Mary Martin Sloop, Dr. Crain, in her dozen years as head of the school, fundamentally renovated the campus, adding six new cottages and building a new charter school, Crossnore Academy, from the ground up. With the help of friends of the school, she installed utilities infrastructure, a fiber optic computer network, athletic fields, a fine arts center and an equestrian complex. She re-imagined and renovated the original hospital building and preserved historic campus structures, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. She elevated staff professional development, gained national accreditations, instituted a new model of care called Sanctuary, developed a study curriculum involving student travel called “Classrooms Without Walls” and raised the school’s endowment, many times out of sheer faith, determination and a brilliant ability to inspire, from $500,000 to more than $21 million. In the recently published history of the school, “A Legacy of Caring,” released in June of this year, author Howard Covington quotes Dr. Crain as saying, “I was raised to work, and as long as I am vertical, I am serving the Lord. That is what life is about – doing what you can to make a

difference. And in the end, there is peace.” Dr. William Friday, friend and advocate of Dr. Crain’s and first and longest serving president of the University of North Carolina, said, “Phyllis Crain, as school director, built a lasting monument of care.” Crossnore School board chairman, David Riggins, recalled “her passion for children and her unshakable Christian faith.” “She elevated Crossnore School,” he said, “to a national model of excellence and Crossnore is a better place because she made it the focus of her life’s work. We are deeply saddened by the loss of our dear friend.” In September of 2001, Dr. Crain was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer and given a year to live. During that year, the children of Crossnore put electric candles in the windows of their cottages, while Dr. Crain prayed and planned for the school without “one hint of retreat.” Her cancer would go into remission for eight years, time to thrust herself into her “ministry” – serving the children of Crossnore. “I just knew I wasn’t finished,” she told an interviewer at the time. Receiving the Nancy Susan Reynolds Award given by the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation in 2008 (often referenced as North Carolina’s “Nobel Prize”), Dr. Crain talked about the resiliency of the students at Crossnore and the importance of doing “all the good we can, wherever we can, for as long as we can.” “All we need,” she would say time and time again, “is the commitment of friends in changing the trajectory of these lives in the balance.” Dr. Crain was born Phyllis Diane Horne on April 17, 1957. Living in the Green Creek Community of Polk County, she learned a strong work ethic by example from her parents. She graduated from Polk Central High School in 1975. After earning a bachelor of science from Wofford College and a master’s degree in special needs educa-
tion from Converse College, she finished her doctorate in education from the University of South Carolina. She became the first woman to become superintendent of schools in North Carolina’s Avery County in 1995. In that role, she constructed two new schools, raised funds and completed design work for a third. She reduced by 50 percent the number of children reading below grade level through innovative tutorial programs and doubled the number of graduating seniors entering college. Longing for a career move that would offer “purity of purpose,” she agreed to take a position as associate director of Crossnore School, a century-old residential education campus for abused and neglected children. Four months after she joined the staff, she was named the executive director in April of 1999. Over her years as leader of the school, child and family advocacy professionals would stream into tiny Crossnore to seek time with Dr. Crain and gain a glimpse of “the Crossnore Way” – the school’s particular blend of healing care and experiential learning. Some of the latter derived from travel experiences, with children going on learning adventures to Cape Canaveral, Philadelphia and Gettysburg, for example, or from simple chores like taking care of the cottage’s dog, another part of life “on the hill.” As Dr. Crain often wrote or said to audiences, “The one thing that every child takes with them from Crossnore is this: ‘I’ve been helped and now I have a noble obligation to help others.’ The beautiful legacy here is that we’ve created this new generation of givers, not takers.” Dr. Crain received the National Administrator of the Year award from CORE (Coalition of Residential Education), the Mary Mildred Sullivan Award from the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Foundation, the Humanitarian Award from the World Children’s Center in Atlanta, Woman of the

Year in Avery County and the William Friday Award for humanitarian efforts in improving the human condition by the Park Scholars of North Carolina State University. She most recently received North Carolina’s most prestigious award, the Order of the Long Leaf Pine, presented by Governor Beverly Perdue. Over the last several years, Dr. Crain and her husband, Keith, enthusiastic world travelers, visited Italy, Greece, Egypt, Jerusalem, Iceland, Canada and South America between treatments for cancer. In Italy, she revisited the art of the fresco, an art she brought to the Crossnore campus through a commission she gave to fresco artist Ben Long for Sloop Chapel, entitled “Suffer the Little Children to Come Unto Me,” from a verse in Matthew. Dr. Crain and Keith were among those who sat up through the night to watch the artist and his assistants finish the image of Jesus and the children, some of whom were modeled after Crossnore boys and girls. Dr. Crain is survived by her husband, Keith; two children, Keith Crain II and Holly Crain Hanes and Holly’s husband, David Hanes; three grandchildren, Haley, Hannah and Kyle Hanes; her parents, Kenneth and Hazel Jackson Horne; a brother, Keith Horne and his wife, Patricia, and niece, Kelli Horne Wilson, and a sister, Sherry Horne Page, her husband, David, and nephews Christopher, Matthew and Daniel Page. A celebration of life ceremony will be held to honor Dr. Crain at 11 a.m. on Friday, July 27 at Camp Yonahnoka, located at Linville Resorts in Linville, N.C. The family will receive friends following the ceremony. In lieu of flowers, the family has requested memorials be made to the Dr. Phyllis H. Crain Endowment Fund at The Crossnore School, P.O. Box 249, Crossnore, N.C. 28616. An online guest register is available at www.mcfarlandfuneralchapel.com.McFarland Funeral Chapel, Tryon.
