Tryon native works to empower women through beauty Tanisha Twitty Akinloye became a confidant for women sitting in her salon in Connecticut. As she wielded scissors they’d tell heartbreaking tales of life as single moms on the brink of economic ruin, wives of active soldiers stationed overseas and women battling addiction. A budding entrepreneur, Akinloye said she felt she had to do more for these women. “I felt like there was more that I needed to be doing. I realized there was more that I needed to do to empower them and give back,” she said. Akinloye (Twitty) graduated from Polk County High School in 1993. She attended Livingstone College in Salisbury, N.C. before meeting her husband and moving to Connecticut for his job. In 2008 she opened her own salon. She said she met a lot of women from different life situa-

tions and many of them needed help to rebuild their confidence. At first, she made her way to shelters around Connecticut offering her services to the women there. “People have their own idea of what homeless looks like – there are accountants who are homeless, there are women who look like me that are homeless,” Akinloye said. “But because they are homeless, they have no confidence and feel like they have no hope.” Akinloye couldn’t stop with just the shelters, she needed to spread hope to as many women as she could, she said. So, in 2010 she closed her salon and began focusing on her organization, Empowering through Beauty, full-time. Akinloye brought her program to her hometown of Tryon Thursday, July 18 at the Carolina Foothills Chamber of Commerce.

“I always knew that I wanted to come back home and give back because this is where it all started for me. I just out of my heart wanted to give back to the women who might be in need and down and out,” Akinloye said. She said she hopes to enrich lives through the gift of beauty and empowerment. “We do womens’ hair and their makeup,” Akinloye said, “but it’s more about education. We want to show them what looks good on them but is appropriate for each situation. In the workplace if you don’t look to fit the job, they aren’t going to hire you. We give women the tools to rebuild their lives.” Akinloye said she feels the beauty and confidence aspects of her program are needed locally. She looks to host regular events for women at least every three months and eventually present programs weekly through community partnerships. She said

Tanisha Twitty Akinloye

she’d like to see that expand to support groups for women where they can talk with other women who might be experiencing the same life issues. Akinloye said she would host her next event in October at Isothermal Community College in Spindale.

Columbus fireworks set for Aug. 31 by Leah Justice

The fireworks show cancelled from the Columbus Fourth of July this year will be held on Saturday, Aug. 31 on the Labor Day weekend. Columbus Town Council met Thursday, July 18 and set the date for the makeup festival. This year’s July 4 celebration saw heavy rain and the firework show was not possible due to washed out grounds. Council members said they’d rather have the festival on a Saturday rather than Labor Day Monday, which will be a school night for children. The festival will be held in downtown Columbus tentatively from 11 a.m. until the firework show is over, likely around 9 p.m. There was some confusion as to when the firework show was going to be held following a Polk County Commissioner meeting on July 8 when commissioners said they’d like the fireworks to be done on Veteran’s Day, when a parade through

Columbus is planned. Columbus Mayor Eric McIntyre said the firework contract with the company gives a two-month window to make up, so having the fireworks in November is not even a consideration. Columbus Town Manager Jonathan Kanipe said the firework company, Zambelli was terrific working with the town. He said Zambelli doesn’t want to wait more than two months because of regulations with storing fireworks. Kanipe explained that on July 4 the firework technician said he needed a backhoe and a tractor in order to access the property for the fireworks, which would have left issues because of the condition of the grounds on property not owned by the town. The town is going to contact vendors and try to get as many there as possible for the Labor Day weekend event. The town is also contacting organizers of the farmers market prior to determining the exact start time of the festival.

Saluda’s Green River Brew Depot features WNC Craft Beers by Mark Schmerling

Saluda’s Green River Brew Depot, a taproom that opened in early July, is part of the return to small, localized breweries, many of which meticulously craft their products. Owner Ken Smith is also half owner of Nantahala Brewing Co., in Bryson City, N.C., which brews some of the beers available at the Saluda location. That’s a good connection for locals and visitors, who can enjoy Nantahala Pale Ale, two other brews from Nantahala, a selection from Green Man, HiWire and Old Hickory, plus an increasing wine selection. Though Ken has a business in industrial construction, he has deep experience catering to the public. In addition to his co-ownership of Nantahala Brewing Co., he owned Smiley’s Acoustic Café in Greenville, S.C., for five years, and “This is about the sixth restaurant I’ve owned,” he said. Why locate in Saluda? “We (Ken and his artist wife Susan, whose portraits are displayed on the GRBD walls) just love Saluda,” Ken said. When they spotted a “For Rent” sign on the building, “We figured it would be a nice way to jump into the community,” Ken said. Ken and Susan wasted no time embracing local traditions including serving as a sponsor for Coon Dog Day. Ken said he got into the brewing business by opportunity. “I thought it would be fun,” he said. Judging from the smiles on

his and Susan’s faces, his hunch was good. Green River Brew Depot rotates some 14 western North Carolina craft beers on tap, keeping at least four types at any given time – porter, IPA (India Pale Ale), pale and dark. Bottled beer is also available. Other selections from Nantahala Brewing are its Brown Ale and Summer Wheat. Green River Brew Depot’s wooden bar top is enjoying a second life.

He was always getting anything that somebody else didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want.â&#x20AC;?

Smith encourages customers to bring food to the taproom, and complement it with something from the beer or wine list. Live music will likely be added as well. Green River Brew Depot is open Fridays from 4-10 p.m., Saturdays from 2-10 p.m., and Sundays from 2-6 p.m. Outdoor seating is available. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cool,â&#x20AC;?

The Polk County Extension Associates (ECA) recently held their annual “Afternoon Tea” at the Melrose Inn. The three clubs – Peniel, Saluda and Stony Knoll – combined their monthly meetings into this annual event. Marilyn Dohenny, owner of the Melrose Inn, hosted the tea and gave a talk on the history of the inn and how she became its owner. Dohenny provided a wonderful assortment of sandwiches, desserts and teas. She also gave a tour of the inn, which includes rooms decorated in a variety of themes. The ECA is a community club that functions in cooperation with the Polk County Cooperative Extension Service. ECA, formerly known as the Home Demonstration Club, has been in the service of communities for 100 years. The mission of the ECA is to provide educational support, leadership development and community action. Monthly meetings provide educational opportunities for the members. For information on ECA clubs, call the Polk County Extension Service at 828-894-8218. (photo submitted by Jimmi Buell)
