Officials celebrate grant award for CYP expansion by Samantha Hurst
Officials touted cooperation of city, county and state governments Wednesday, Oct. 10 as Fendrich Industries celebrated its award of a One North Carolina grant which will allow the company to expand operations at its Carolina Yarn Processors facility in Tryon. Polk County Commission Chairperson Ray Gasperson said he was proud the commission unanimously voted to support the expansion through matching grant funds. “Having our EDTC director Libbie Johnson working on this project and the county matching the state funds over a three year period were instrumental in making this happen,” said Gasperson.

The Columbus Police Department arrested an Inman, S.C. man for possession of a stolen motorcycle after the man fled from a vehicle stop and wrecked. Aleksandr Butsenko, 19, of Inman, S.C. was arrested and charged with felony possession of a stolen motor vehicle, felony fleeing to elude arrest, felony identity theft and injury to real property, according to police reports. The North Carolina State Highway Patrol investigated the wreck, and also charged Butsenko with no motorcycle
license, failing to stop for a stop sign, motorcycle helmet violation, reckless driving, failing to maintain lane control and operating a vehicle without insurance. Officers attempted a vehicle stop of a motorcycle along Ward Street on Sat., Oct. 6. The motorcycle fled from officers and was quickly found wrecked a short distance down South Peak Street, according to police reports. It was discovered that the motorcycle was reported stolen out of Myrtle Beach, S.C. on Sept. 22. The operator of the motorcycle, Butsenko, was released from the Polk County Jail after posting a $25,000 secured bond, according to the Columbus Police Department.

ent company of CYP, was officially awarded grant funds in the amount of $115,000 from the state, as well as the county’s match. The One NC Fund provides financial assistance, through local governments, to attract business projects that will stimulate economic activity and create new jobs. Companies must meet job creation and investment performance standards to qualify for grant funds. The grants also require local matching funds, which have been provided by the Polk County Board of Commissioners. “This is a revitalization of
manufacturing in Polk County, which has a long proud history of textile manufacturing. This is a significant step in providing more jobs with a textile industry input. It certainly adds pride to Polk County to have that Made In USA label and it be from Polk County,”Gasperson said. Freddie Harrill spoke for Senator Kay Hagan about the importance of such moves by companies in the region. “This exciting jobs announcement is just one more indication that Western North Carolina has created a top-rate business environment,” Harold said.

the company expects to transfer its bandana printing production from a facility in Union, S.C. to Tryon. The move will create a total of 23 jobs in Tryon, with some employees in Union being given the option to transfer. Owner Sharon McCarthy said she and husband Burk, “look forward to coming back for a ribbon cutting ceremony soon.” “We want to preserve the jobs that we have in Tryon right now and the jobs we are moving from Union and adding to our operation,” she said. Tryon Mayor Alan Peoples said the facilities site has long represented manufacturing growth in the area. “This year, armed with hands
across the aisle support from the State of North Carolina, the Polk County Commissioners, the Town of Tryon and Fendrich Industries, we are here to witness something no often seen in this day and time. We are celebrating a plant expansion and the creation of new jobs,” said Moore said several points factored into the company’s decision to expand in Tryon rather than at its Union facility. He said the company wants to enhance the type of printing and dyes it uses in the production of bandanas, which requires new equipment. The new equipment also requires the availability of a large boiler. One is already in place at CYP, but is not at the Union facility. Purchasing one (Continued on page 10)

would have cost the company an additional $100,000 or more, he said. He said the company felt combining two of its production efforts would also make more economic sense. “The yarn dyeing operation here has a great reputation and that really comes from the management and employees here that put such care into the operation,” said Moore. Of the company’s 43 Tryon employees, 26 have worked with CYP for 10 or more years, Moore said. He said this expansion not only brings new jobs, but provides job security for those employees who have long served the company. Positions expected to open

with the expansion include operators for rotary printers, carousel print machines, dye machines and finishing frames, as well as a plant manager and graphic artist. Before those positions open up however, the company must dredge its pond, have contractors grade an existing warehouse and pore concrete and complete the new addition. Moore said the company plans to use all local contractors to complete this work as well. The company is currently waiting for building permits to be issued.

Sixth annual statewide Campout! Carolina Oct. 12-14 Dust off your tents, gather your s’mores and get ready to tell your favorite campfire stories because it’s that time of year again; it’s time to Campout! Carolina. On Oct. 12-14, EarthShare North Carolina (ESNC), a nonprofit network of regional environmental organizations, is calling on North Carolina residents to join in the state’s largest campout. Campout! Carolina is a statewide movement to celebrate North Carolina’s natural beauty by turning off electron-
ics, unplugging non-essential appliances and camping out in your backyard or favorite camping spot. ESNC encourages friends, family and neighbors, as well as church, scouting and community groups of all kinds, to join the campout and demonstrate their support for a healthy environment in North Carolina. Last year, more than 5,000 North Carolinians gathered with friends, family and neighbors to celebrate and show their support for the environment. Now in its sixth year, ESNC
hopes to exceed that number and set a Campout! Carolina record, so it invites everybody to pitch a tent and register to Be Counted as official campers at www.campoutcarolina.org. Sign up is free and all participants will automatically be put in a drawing to win prizes. Website visitors will also learn tips for environmentally friendly camping, campsite location suggestions and other activities to enhance the camping experience. ESNC’s sixth annual Campout! Carolina is supported
by the outdoor store REI and Shakori Hills Grassroots Festival of Music and Dance. Registered campers will be automatically entered in a drawing for a family-sized tent and other prizes. Participating REI stores in North Carolina will also provide free camping gear rentals on a first-come, first-serve basis to anyone participating in Campout! Carolina. REI will also sponsor a photo contest after the campout. – article submitted by Elizabeth Feindel

This year, Bowl for Kids’ Sake was shifted back a few months to allow for the development of another BBBS fundraiser in February, Have a Heart for BBBS. Bowl for Kids’ Sake continues to serve as the agency’s largest fundraiser, raising more than 20 percent of its operating revenues to support youth mentoring programs. Businesses wishing to sponsor the event, those who are interested in bowling and volunteers who would like to help out on the bowling date are encouraged to call now for more information. Sponsorship opportunities are open through Nov. 1. To take part in this year’s event, email polk@bbbswnc. org or call Big Brothers Big Sisters at 828-859-9230. – article submitted by Karen Dacey

You can visit www.bbbswnc. org to create your own fundraising page, or choose a team to support and donate online even if you can’t make it to the event. Every bowler has a chance to win door prizes. Teams are made up of four to five people and each bowler receives two free hours of bowling, including shoes, pizza, drinks and a T-shirf. Bowl For Kids’ Sake is a way anyone can support the Big Brothers Big Sisters vision – that all children achieve success in life. Not everyone may be able to serve as a mentor for a child, but by participating in this event as a donor, bowler, team captain or sponsor, anyone can help start a child on the right path.

Permanent N.C. license plates to change; issuance limited Beginning Monday, Oct. 15, the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles (NCDMV) will introduce new permanent plates and a new process for their issuance. A new law passed by the general assembly requires all currently issued permanent plates to be canceled and reissued under new eligibility rules by Dec. 31. Vehicle owners, depending on their eligibility for permanent plates, must purchase either replacement permanent plates or standard “First in Flight” plates by the December deadline. New orange and black plates will replace the current silver and black permanent plates. Beginning Oct. 15, DMV will no longer issue silver and black plates. Current permanent plate holders will be notified by letter to replace their plates. NCDMV expects about 120,000 vehicles
to be affected by the change, mostly vehicles that are owned and operated by municipalities and counties across the state. New permanent plates will be available from license plate agencies or by mail accompanied by form MVR-619 from Vehicle Services, 3148 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-3148. The new law limits eligibility for permanent registration plates to governmental entities and certain other groups. Those approved for permanent plates include vehicles owned by a county, city or town; a board of education; the Civil Air Patrol; an incorporated emergency rescue squad; a rural fire department, agency or association; community colleges; or local chapters of the American National Red Cross and used for emergency or disaster work.
New orange and black license plates will replace the current silver and black permanent plates beginning Oct. 15. (photo submitted by Margaret S. Howell)
All other vehicles must obtain standard registration plates. Examples of vehicles that will no longer be eligible for permanent plates include vehicles operated by orphanages, church buses, mobile X-ray transports, sheltered workshops, nonprofit mental health transports, city trolleys and
parade vehicles of charitable organizations. All vehicles still have to pass required annual safety and emissions inspections prior to obtaining new registration plates, whether permanent or standard. – article submitted by Margaret S. Howell

Pet blessing at Unitarian Universalist Fellowship Oct. 14 The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship will meet on Sunday, Oct. 14 at 10:30 a.m. at the Tryon Youth Center on Rt. 176 N. Reverend Jean Rowe will speak on the topic, “How Animals Bless Our Lives.” She will be assisted by Angela Creech. “As household companions, animals bless and enrich our lives with their calm or playful personalities, remind us to take walks and get exercise and also to rest. We also celebrate animals in the wild and remember many species are still endangered by urban development and pollution,” said Rowe. The service will include a “blessing of the animals” service. Creech, who is part Cherokee and a professional pet caretaker who communicates with animals in a natural, intuitive way, will join Rowe. Creech is part Cherokee and a professional pet caretaker
who will share stories about communicating with animals. You are welcome to bring your friendly, healthy animal companions, safely caged or restrained on short leashes. (Church officials said they are not able to safely accommodate horses or larger animals, but dogs, cats and smaller critters are welcome.) You are also welcome to bring photos of larger animals, current animals unable to attend or of those animals no longer with you. There will be an opportunity to introduce your pet(s), time for them to take a break during the talk and then a pet blessing at the end of the service. Feel free to come early to share hospitality and fellowship. For information call 828-8945776 or visit www.uutryonnc.org. – article submitted by Dan Dworkin

South Carolina residents step up to Volunteer for HoCF by Darlene Cah
Hospice of the Carolina Foothills (HoCF) put the call out this past summer for volunteers to serve families in South Carolina, and residents from Landrum, Inman, Gowensville and as far away as Chesnee answered the call. Fourteen new volunteers trainees – 12 from South Carolina, two from North Carolina and one new HoCF staff member – completed the five-day in-depth training held in Inman and concluding on Aug. 8. “We have a lot of wonderful volunteers,” Jean Pearson, HoCF volunteer manager, said, “but we can never have enough. There’s just a lot of work to be done.” That work includes visiting with patients wherever they call “home,” office and administrative duties, retail sales at the Hospice Thrift Barn and much more. Many of the trainees at the Inman

session expressed an interest in patient companionship. Over the course of the five days, the schedule included presentations and breakout interactive discussion groups covering topics such as medical conditions, family emotional needs, spiritual care,
bereavement services and palliative care, in addition to record keeping and communication techniques. On the evening of Aug. 7, the trainees were given the opportunity to hear the tips, advice and real-life stories as told by a panel
of four current and active HoCF volunteers: Don Cohenhour, Diane McEntee, Mike McEntee and Sandra Burns. Don Cohenhour kicked off the discussion. (Continued on page 27)

“I’m one of those people who cry at Lassie movies,” he said, emphasizing he didn’t think he could handle sitting with patients. He soon discovered there were plenty of other jobs available, and food service was a good fit. Cohenour can be found distributing dinners to patients at the Hospice House in Landrum Saturday and Sunday evenings, particularly difficult time slots to fill, according to Pearson. “We support the medical staff. It takes us anywhere from 45 minutes to 1½ hours. That’s time the nursing staff would have to take away from the care of the patient to do it themselves. So by us being there to do this preparation, it allows them the time to be with someone to help take care of them,” Cohenour said. He offered advice to the trainees. “You’re representing Hospice, so when you go in the room
and [the patient and family] are having a bad time, you have to try and make sure that you show them that you feel for them, and you want to do anything you can to help them. Now, whenever you do this, it makes you feel good.” For someone who didn’t want to get involved with patients, Cohenour has developed quite a few bonds. He told of his unique relationship with one patient, a mechanical engineer who was gruff and grouchy, a tough character. “I’d go in and say something nasty about how mechanical engineers can’t draw right,” Cohenour said, “and he’d come back and say, ‘You guys couldn’t make the part if I’d draw it.’ ‘No, we couldn’t ’cause you’d draw it wrong.’” For three months, their backand-forth banter went on like that every time Cohenour served a meal. “I felt terrible when that man died,” he said. “His family
couldn’t wait for me to come in and harass him because it made him feel good. It gave him something to look forward to.” Diane McEntee started out as a companion, visiting patients in their homes, at nursing homes and at Tryon Estates. She’s also worked at a variety of office tasks, and in the past, brought her and her husband’s now-retired therapy dog, Annie, to share some canine love with patients. Today, McEntee gives much of her time at the Hospice House. She was a nurse for 39 years before, as she put it, “polio caught up with me.” But when it comes to volunteering, polio doesn’t slow her down. In fact, she called her physical challenge an icebreaker with the patients. “It takes their mind off what they’re going through, and they’re very curious.” She said she was inspired to volunteer when, upon retirement, a colleague became a Hospice nurse, and McEntee started vol-

unteering right away, even before her own retirement day arrived. “You get to spend time with [the patients] on an emotional level, whereas as a nurse you don’t have time to do that.” McEntee has also been an 11th Hour Volunteer. These volunteers receive additional training and are called to sit with a patient at the very end of their life. “When someone is dying they’re at the most humble part of their lives. We all have to do it,” McEntee said. “You can be there for them. Somehow let them know you’re there, that you’re not going anywhere; and you can be there for the family, too. It’s very intimate volunteering. There’s nothing else like it.” Around Hospice of the Carolina Foothills, McEntee’s husband, Mike, is the jack of all trades. At the N.C. administrative office, he mans the shredder, stocks supplies, goes on grocery store runs (Continued on page 28)

and helps with bulk mailings. He’s even repaired the plumbing and taken out the trash. “I’m a Boy Friday sort of thing,” he said. Everyone brings their own experience into the mix when they volunteer for HoCF. In Mike’s case, he saved the organization money. A former United States Postal Service Postmaster, he discovered an error in the postage rates for a bulk mailing and managed to get the cost reduced. He’s delivered equipment to patients’ homes and driven them to doctor and dentist appointments. He said of one couple he takes to appointments in Spartanburg, “We have the best time. We’ll stop and have dinner together. They’re just the nicest people.” He and Diane took their volunteer training in 2002, and Mike was adamant about one thing. He

As the panel discussion wrapped up, Don Cohenhour offered encouragement to the new group of volunteers. “We need all of you. No matter how much you can do, or how much you can help us. You’re not doing it by yourself. You have the whole organization behind you. Everybody will strengthen each other.” He turned to his fellow panelists. “They strengthen me sitting here listening to them.” Class member Merrie Likes expressed how she felt about the volunteers who shared their stories that evening. “When I look at you all, you are an inspiration, because you are the perfect example of what we all want to be.” According to Pearson, all August trainees are now in service. The next volunteer training session will take place in late October. For more information, call Jean Pearson at 828-894-2881 or Lynne Paff at 864-457-9125.

Wolverines to visit much improved Thomas Jefferson team by Fulton Hampton
Polk County (6-2 overall, 3-1 conference) takes on Thomas Jefferson (6-2 overall, 2-2 conference) tonight, Friday, Oct. 12, for a matchup that should be quite different from the last 90-0 meeting in their stadium. There is a lot of talk in the area about the complete turnaround they have made this year. Coach Bruce Ollis is quick to compliment their progress. “If you look at what [Thomas Jefferson has] done this year, 6-2 [is] the same record we have posted,” Ollis said. “They are a formidable foe. Offensively, they probably throw the ball as well as any team in the conference. They throw the ball a little more than they run, [but] they have a pretty good mix. They have some weapons we will have to deal with.” “The key for us defensively is going to be putting pressure on the passer,” Ollis continued. “We got to get a good pass
rush… not allow him to throw the ball [at will]. That’s going to be huge.” There will also be an emphasis on a more aggressive “ball hawking” defensive secondary, according to Ollis. “They are going to have to break on the ball a little better… to not be afraid to make a great play,” Ollis said. Marino (no. 26), Lucas Williams (no. 5), Chase Mcmurray (no. 67), Jordan Smith Offensively, Anthony (no. 2) and JC Suddeth (no. 45) put pressure on the Avery QB in last week’s game.

Landrum seeks tonight to overcome loss last week by Leah Justice
The Landrum Cardinals (3-4 overall, 3-1 in region play) will strive tonight, Friday, Oct. 12, to get back on their winning streak after losing to Chesnee 17-0 last week. The Cardinals play the Blacksburg Wildcats (4-4 overall, 3-4 in region play) at home tonight.
The matchup could be tight as Blacksburg and Landrum have close state rankings and both beat Carolina and Liberty this season. Blacksburg beat Liberty 26-7 in region play last week while Landrum lost to the Chesnee Eagles, allowing Chesnee to take the top region spot last week. Landrum also beat Liberty in a closer match
a few weeks ago that ended 33-29. Liberty led the Cardinals at halftime 22-7 with Landrum coming back in the second half to take the win. Blacksburg beat Carolina Academy 49-34 while Landrum beat Carolina Academy 26-18. Both Blacksburg and Landrum lost against Broome; Blacksburg
lost 17-14 while Landrum lost to Broome 42-0. Prior to Landrum’s loss over Chesnee last week, the Cardinals were on a three-game winning streak in Region 1-2A play. Landrum beat Powdersville 29-19 on Sept. 28 in its homecoming game. Tonight’s game starts at 7:30 p.m.

Much of the food you eat contains a killer Did you know that much of the processed food you might be eating contains a killer? That’s right… a killer. Trans fat is so dangerous, the Food and Drug Administration requires it to be identified on food labels.
What are trans fats? Just what are trans fats, and why are they so bad for us? Trans fats are a result of the hydrogenation of oils. The first step of this process is the crushing of corn, soybeans,

Fast food restaurants love hydrogenated oils because they keep those fries, chicken nuggets and fish fillets nice and crisp. Some of the myriad of foods that might contain hydrogenated oils, and therefore, trans fat include cereals, canned soups, beans, pastas, chilies, sauces, cookies, crackers, other baked goods, stuffings and even lunch meats. Frozen foods can be loaded with trans fats. Stick margarines, and shortenings like “Crisco” also contain trans fats. Which foods don’t contain any trans fat? All unprocessed fruits, vegetables and meats. All canned fish and unprocessed oils are trans fat free.

Sometimes things just happen Humane Society Special Cases Leonard Rizzo
We’ve all heard tales of a kitten stuck up in a tree or puppies trapped in a drainpipe. A dog escaping from its owner to chase some critter and being struck by a car or caught in a fence. These mishaps occur daily throughout our country and it would be useless to attach blame to anyone. We wish to find a reason because we somehow think we’ve failed our beloved animals. As we do when such things happen to humans, for we all can recall odd injuries in our lives, we simply pick up the pieces, fix what we can and move on. Prayer helps. A case in point comes to mind. A few years ago, one of my kids, sweet Ned, was running and playing in his yard. He leapt over a down slope, which he’d done a hundred times before, but this time he landed badly. He fractured his leg so severely that it could not be saved and the family was devastated. Lennie’s fund took care of the operation and I consoled the beautiful family, telling them, “things will be all

right.� To d a y l i t t l e N e d g e t s around just as well as he used to and my dear friend Debbie says they don’t even realize a leg is missing. These things make us realize how fragile life can be and somehow this family has learned to love Ned even more. Little Rable got out of his play area and decided to go visiting. All you beagle owners are well aware of the wanderlust this breed possesses. Rable wandered onto another property, looking to play but the owner’s dog sized up the situation differently and attacked him, tearing a gaping hole in his inner thigh. Bobby, the dear older gentleman who owns him, was

frantic for Rable as he is his only and beloved companion. He rushed Rable to Landrum Vet and gave them $75, all he had, and begged them to save his little dog. Rable went home last Saturday with a tube in him to drain the wound and after care was administered is doing just fine. I was there, stroking Rable’s head as he was being tended to, and offered to pay the rest of the bill for Bobby. Dr. Raines smiled and said, “Lennie, you always seem to be around when things like this happen. I wonder why.� “I don’t know, Donna,� I answered. “Who knows – sometimes things just happen.� Thanks for listening.

CDC recommendations The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently announced that all Americans born from 1945 through 1965 get a hepatitis C test. The reason is because baby boomers account for 75 percent of the 3 million or so hepatitis C cases in the U.S., even though they make up only 27 percent of the total population. Most hepatitis C infections occurred in the 1970s and 1980s, before there were tests to detect them and before the nation’s blood supply was routinely screened for the virus. Hepatitis C is transmitted only through blood, so anyone who received either a blood transfusion or an organ transplant prior to 1992 is at increased risk. So are health-
care workers exposed to blood, and people who injected drugs through shared needles.

This is a relatively inexpensive test and typically covered by health insurance under routine medical care. If you’re not covered, the test will run $30 to $35. If the test is negative, no further tests are needed. But if the test is positive, you’ll need another test called HCV RNA, which will show whether the virus is still active. This test runs between $100 and $250 if you’re not covered by insurance. DAJU-028057
Dear Wanda, If you’re a baby boomer, getting tested for hepatitis C would be a wise decision because boomers are five times more likely to have this virus than other generations, and most people that have it don’t realize it. Those who are infected are at very high risk of eventually developing liver cancer, cirrhosis or other fatal liver diseases. Here’s what else you should know.
