Overmountain Trace Holdings won the auction last year for the property with a final bid of $4.75 million. Tryon Equestrian Property also made bids during the auction. The Polk County Planning Board will have its first look at a proposed development agreement on Thursday, Jan. 10 at 5 p.m. The proposed development agreement turned into the planning board from Tryon Equestrian Properties states the developer anticipates a long-term investment that could exceed $90 million with the tax base exceeding $500 million. The approximate 1,000-acre property, located off Pea Ridge Road in the Green Creek Township, has plans to include a maximum of 800 dwelling units including single-family residential and clustered multi-family condo/ townhouses. The development also plans to include a 350-unit hotel/lodging, private and public clubs; sports and recreation both indoor and outdoor including golf, tennis, fishing, hiking and nature, obstacle courses; multi-discipline equestrian center, summer camps, retail stores, restaurants, offices, fitness, spa and wellness center; camping/rental cabins/RV park; museum, covered arena, indoor arena, amphitheater, winery/ vineyard; hospitality/convention center; lighted stadium with seating for 6,000; heliport, festivals; stabling for horses or other animals; auctions (animal and/or products); temporary tents; conservation easements or areas and retirement facilities, independent living and assisted living up to 100 units. The development agreement is asking for rezoning of the property, which is currently designated as Multiple Use (MU) zoning. “The developer intends to broaden the development focus from a golf course community into a premiere international Equestrian Lifestyle Destination (ELD),” states the draft development agreement. “The developer intends for the ELD to include

The developer intends to broaden the development focus from a golf course community into a premiere international Equestrian Lifestyle Destination (ELD). a world class equestrian venue which would support both licensed and non-licensed equestrian events, a golf course, hotel resort and convention center, a top quality spa and fitness center, as well as support many diverse recreational, sport and cultural events and activities that can position the development to support year-round economic impact.” The draft agreement also says the property, subdivision, original master plan, the permit and master plan are to be known as White Oak Plantation. “The members of the developer have significant experience in developing and/or operating equestrian events and venues,” states the draft agreement. “The primary members of the developer are also the primary members and the managing members of Wellington Equestrian Partners LLC (WEP) who are the owners of the world renowned Winter Equestrian Festival (WEF) in Wellington, Florida (located in Palm Beach County). The Winter Equestrian Festival is the largest and longest running equestrian festival in the world attracting over 5,000 horses from 50 states and 31 countries for the 12-week festival (Jan-April). WEP also owns and operates the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center (PBIEC), which is the home of the WEF. The PBIEC is a private facility, which is also located in Wellington, Florida, which many consider one of the top three facilities in the world.” The planning board is not scheduled to take a vote on the development agreement or rezoning request this week. The planning board will make recommendations to the Polk County Board of Commissioners who will make the final decisions on the rezoning and development agreement.

years to come.” The building, located at the corner of Trade and Maple Streets, has had numerous uses over the years. It has served, among other things, as a gas station, a realty office, a clothier and a thrift store. Many claim without reservation that the present renovation represents the property’s most ambitious re-use to date. Mayor J. Alan Peoples described the renovation as “a lynchpin for future development in downtown Tryon, allowing us to create greater connectivity between the Depot Plaza, Trade Street and Palmer Street.” Upon completion, the St. Luke’s Plaza complex will create a focal point and public gathering space downtown, as well as add additional retail spaces. “I am delighted to under-

take this historic renovation,” contractor Mike Karaman said, “and delighted to work with Bob Lane, a true visionary in improving our town.” Since acquiring the property in order to facilitate development of an enhanced public space, Lane has worked closely with architect Dean Trakas and Crys Armbrust, Tryon’s Business and Tourism officer. “Dean Trakas and Crys Armbrust have been a joy to work with. Their enthusiasm for developing the St. Luke’s Plaza and the Depot Plaza is contagious,” he said. The finalized St. Luke’s Plaza plan, approved by the planning and zoning board in December, echoes the building’s original history and function as a service station, while establishing cohesive, aesthetic continuity with another largescale downtown renovation by Karaman, the historic 1906 Tryon Depot.

Acknowledging Bob Lane on behalf of Tryon and its citizens, Town Manager Caitlin Martin further reiterated the project’s potential impact on the town. “Restoring this building to its historic roots will create a central, welcoming place in downtown. In that process, two large sections of downtown will be joined with one fluid plan to encourage visitors and

citizens to shop, dine and enjoy the charm of downtown Tryon,” Martin said. Lane said he feels one of the most important aspects of the project was to consider the building’s history. “Dean, Crys, Mike and I have the same sensitivity towards originality and authenticity in the restoration process. It is going to be fun watching it come together,” he said.

MRPO public hearing tonight at commissioner’s meeting by Samantha Hurst

On the Polk County Board of Commissioner’s agenda for the Monday, Jan. 7 meeting is a public hearing to discuss replacing the Mountainside Ridgeline Protection Ordinance, (MRPO), with a steep slope ordinance rec-

ommended by the Polk County Planning Board. The meeting will begin at 7 p.m. at the Womack Building in Columbus. Three out of five of the former Board of Commission members voted Oct. 1 to recommend that

the planning board fully rescind the MRPO, which restricts development at elevations of 1,650 feet or above. Instead, planning board members took their allotted 45 days to devise another solution. In an email to Save Our Slopes (SOS) members Jan. 3, planning

board chair Lisa Krolak said the board wanted to ensure protections of some level were put in place to maintain the safety and beauty of Polk County mountains. “The new ordinance is much (Continued on page 11)

In January, the Mill Spring Agricultural Center will host two free forestry seminars. The first seminar called “Tips for Selling Timber” will be held on Jan. 17 from noon to 1 p.m. Since trees grow slowly, most landowners only get the chance to sell timber once or twice in their lifetime, and sometimes the process of selling timber can be confusing. Stephen Bishop of the Mill Spring Ag Center and Brian Rogers and Eric Bradley of the North Carolina Forest Service will provide tips and resources for people interested

in selling timber. Attendees can expect to learn about marketing and ensuring a fair price for their timber, identifying good loggers and timber buyers, and applying for cost share programs for replanting. On Jan. 24, from noon to 1 p.m., the ag center will host another forestry seminar called “For-profit Firewood.” Selling firewood can provide extra income during the holiday season and also increase the vigor of a woodlot by removing poor quality trees. Attendees will learn ways to make cutting firewood

easier and more profitable.

Food Lion and General Mills offer Box Tops for Education Program Tuesday, Jan. 8 is the last day of this season that Food Lion shoppers can help their local schools earn up to $20,000 by collecting box tops from specially-marked General Mills products. Participating schools in our area include Sunny View Elementary and Tryon Elementary Schools. The “Return to School” program offers customers the opportunity to purchase any six speciallymarked General Mills products at any Food Lion store, and collect the box tops to earn money for their local school. General Mills has administered the Box Tops for Education program for 17 years. There are three

simple steps that customers may take to help their local schools receive funding from the box tops they collect through Jan. 8. First, customers should clip the box tops found on the select products and then submit the box top coupons to any school that is enrolled in the program. Finally, the school will then send a collection of all box tops to General Mills to be redeemed. Only schools registered in the Box Tops for Education program can redeem the box tops. Each box top is worth 10 cents to the redeeming school, and there is a limit of $20,000 per school, per school year for box tops redeemed through the

explained. Initial outrage over the MRPO’s elevation restrictions came from Saluda residents who said the 1,650 feet limit would prevent any development in Saluda township.

Big Brothers Big Sisters Christmas celebration Each year Big Couple Lynne Parsons and Ernie Giannini have generously opened their Morning Glory Farm to share with Big Brothers Big Sisters volunteer Bigs and their Littles. It was a fine day to celebrate the spirit of Christmas with children and caring adults in a beautiful natural setting. The weather cooperated to allow a guided nature walk prior to the festivities. Parsons’ and Giannini’s Little Brother Russell led the group through the winter woods for a Tree Walk Game. It was more daunting to identify trees with no foliage, but Little Sister Nathalie and her Big Sister Sue Anderson prevailed and won the challenge. Refreshments were then served in the lakeside pavilion where warmth from the fireplace kept guests comfortable. Outside, a bonfire beckoned the delighted Littles to roast marshmallows for making s’mores. Games were played outdoors, while indoors Littles and Bigs made Christmas crafts to take home for gifts. A Seasonal Assistance Grant, awarded to BBBS by the Polk County Community Foundation, provided goods for the party and gifts for the children, but primarily supplied generous Bi-Lo grocery gift cards for the families of each Little in the Big Brothers Big Sisters community and school programs. This grant ensured that the children served by Big Broth-

ers Big Sisters had food during the holiday season. The Polk County Community Foundation awards these seasonal grants to local nonprofit organizations to help support individuals and families who may need assistance during the holiday season, improving the quality of life for recipients in our community. This is the fourth year that Big Brothers Big Sisters has had the opportunity to share the good fortune of these special funds, benefiting

many families and alleviating stress during the holidays. Over the past 10 years the local Big Brothers Big Sisters organization has served children facing adversity in Polk County and the Landrum area. Most of the children in the BBBS communitybased program are from singleparent homes and very few live in homes with a traditional family. Some live with a grandparent or other relatives, some have lost a parent or have a parent in prison. In the community program, children ages 6-14 are matched with screened and trained adult volunteers to enjoy outings in the community while developing trusting friendships. These matches can continue through the child’s high school graduation. In addition, a mentoring program provides volunteers to assist elementary school students who need extra attention at school. Measurable results prove it’s wise for adults to invest quality time with children. Youth matched with a mentor experience significant benefits including in-

creased self-confidence, better relationships with others, improved school performance and are less likely to engage in risky behavior. Investing in our youth serves the entire community, for children will certainly participate in shaping our future as adults as they become teachers, leaders, business people, doctors, veterinarians and parents themselves. For the children to make a positive difference they must be encouraged and supported in reaching for their greatest potential. We can all participate in making a difference. Volunteers are the core of BBBS. Those unable to volunteer as a Big or local council member could consider helping financially. Big Brothers Big Sisters depends on the generosity of the community for support. For information on how you can volunteer or donate, call 828859-9230, email polk@bbbswnc. org, or mail to BBBS, 301 N. Trade St, Tryon, NC 28782. – article submitted by Karen Dacey

Nearly 500 of those photos can be viewed in the Serene Gallery portion of their website at www. livesimplywithstyle.com.

Faye Lane dreamed of telling stories and singing songs on the stage, and now she does, all over the world!
