Columbus chosen for National Endowment of the Arts grant by Kiesa Kay
Columbus will be encouraged to bloom over the next 18 months, with a $50,000 grant from the National Endowment of the Arts. The grant supports cooperation between the town and Handmade in America in revitalizing downtown and showcasing the
strengths of Columbus’s cultural heritage. “I think this grant provides a vital piece to what we do with community redevelopment,” said Jonathan Kanipe, town manager. “Many talented craftsmen and artists live here, and we want to support

them however we can. We’re very excited about the whole process.” Jessica Kryzenske, director of Creative Economies for Handmade in America, ensured that the grant aligned with the overall community redevelopment goals, Kanipe said. The grant supplies $50,000 for artsbased renewal in Columbus. The National Education Association has awarded 51 Our Town grant awards this year. “We want to help the community create something sustainable that will last much longer than the 18-month grant cycle,” Kryzenske said. “It’s exciting, because this grant not only allows HIA to learn what’s needed, but also to start the first projects of revitalization. Columbus has its own particular identity, and together we can find ways to animate the downtown area.” The Town of Columbus has many blessings, Kryzenske said, including a multigenerational base of volunteers. The area has a history of good Old Time music, and the local sounds and foods can become part of the revitalization plan, as traditions pass from older to younger generations. The grant will help showcase the town’s strengths, she said. “The House of Flags is the only museum of its kind in the nation, and Columbus also boasts a beautiful courthouse, wonderful park space and an iconic water tower,” Kryzenske said. “The role we play will be as facilitators, helping community members find common ground. The steering committee here is very talented, and it’s a community-driven, grassroots process.” Through the foresight of the Polk County Community Foundation, Handmade in America has conducted a three-day assessment of community needs, gathering data from longtime residents, business owners and former residents of Columbus, Kryzenske said. HIA welcomes comments from people who know Columbus best, and continues gathering data on historic figures, historic buildings and the unique values of this area.

“We’re celebrating the heritage and artistic gifts that already exist here, and reinforcing our number one priority of Columbus as a wonderful place to live,” Kryzenske said. Each town chosen for the grant awards must have a population less than 2,000 people and a strong heritage. Handmade in America facilitates economic development through support of the arts and crafts of the area, and some seeds of revitalization have begun to take root. For example, Janelle Wienke, community economic development director for HIA, has started a partnership with Isothermal Community College to encourage entrepreneurship in the arts, so local artists and musicians can learn to make money from doing what they love. The grant opens an opportunity for community members to decide what will work best for Columbus and to initiate the flowering of that vision. “It’s so much fun,” Kryzenske said. “No two community identities are the same. We support 14 small towns in 11 counties.” Every community focuses on something different, and Columbus residents will work together to choose how to actualize revitalization. Projects in other places have included community murals, streetscape plans, public cleanup and beautification, burying power lines and creation of special events celebrating community heritage and the arts. “We’ll be calling on folks to share their voices, and we will need manpower,” Kryzenske said Greg Walker Wilson, interim director of Handmade in America, expressed unbridled enthusiasm for partnership with Columbus on developing the resources that exist here. “HIA’s programs drive tourism, revitalize small towns, broaden markets, and create job opportunities by emphasizing Western North Carolina’s unique cultural assets and distinction as the cradle of craft,” Wilson said. “We are thrilled to receive one of the NEA Our Town grants and look forward to working together.”

Women Under the Hood by Kailey Young
kim@sheelahclarkson.com www.sheelahclarkson.com
On Aug. 12, 19 and 26, from 6 - 9 p.m., the Tryon Seventh-day Adventist Church will host a car maintenance seminar for women. Pastor Bill Strong began teaching this class 15 years ago in Ohio. He said half of the class is spent in lecture and the other half is spent in the parking lot with the student’s own car. “This class is not a mechanic class - we aren’t teaching them how to fix things - it is strictly maintenance,” Strong said. Whether widowed, divorced, single or married - all women can benefit from knowing a bit more about what’s under the hood of their car. The church aims to help women better comprehend the hoses, wires and greasy metal under the hood of their cars that normally might cause their eyes to cross. The church’s Women Under the Hood course will provide hands-on car maintenance advice in three sessions. Women will learn what to do if they are in the middle of nowhere and a tire blows out. After the course, Strong said students would understand enough to
make sure a mechanic is being honest and will discover what the seven vital fluids are and why they are important. Taking this class will take the mystery out of car maintenance. Strong said he first learned about the course through a magazine article about a church in Oregon. The church had a group of mechanics that put together a seminar to help women learn how to maintain their cars. Strong said it was so successful the church put together a kit that they began selling. “My father was a small town car dealer, and for the last 40 years my hobby has been car mechanics. We ended up buying a kit and began teaching our own seminar,” Strong said. “We get a good response, too. A woman came back and thanked us. She said she had never even opened the hood of her car before the class … There is no other motive other than to help women learn how to maintain their cars.” Pre-registration is required since there is limited space. Make a reservation in advance to guarantee a seat. There is a small registration fee. To find out more, call 828-859-6407.

Evaluators of applications for arts programming in the schools concentrated on the 21 applications received for the inaugural B.I.G. program at Tryon Fine Arts Center. Funding for the selected projects will be distributed in late August.
TFAC develops mini-grant system to fund arts in education Educators in eight Polk County and South Carolina District One schools will be awarded funding of up to $500 each to carry out arts-related projects in the 2013-2014 school year through a Tryon Fine Arts Center program supporting teachers and creativity in the classroom. The mini-grant program, named Be Inspired Grant (B.I.G.) Program, is managed by Arts in Education Committee Chair, Sue Z Truitt and TFAC Education Director Marianne Carruth. “We are inspired by a recent article in The Washington Post that lists 10 life skills learned through the arts: creativity, confidence, problem solving, perseverance, focus, non-verbal communication, receiving constructive feedback, collaboration, dedication and accountability. These grants are a way to help develop these skills that contribute to academic and life success for our children,” said Truitt. In March the board of directors voted to put this project in motion immediately to allow teachers to plan ahead for the next school year. They advanced a total of $5000 with the understanding that the money would be raised through private and corporate sponsorship throughout the year. The competitive grants were of-
fered to K-12 teachers in Polk County and Spartanburg County District One Schools, as well as registered non-public schools. Teachers were asked to briefly describe the project, explaining how it will use the arts to enhance learning in the classroom, describe the outcomes they wish to achieve and provide an itemized budget. A total of 21 applications were received in mid-June with requests totaling $10,744. Using a similar grant program from the Education Foundation of Sarasota, Fla. as a guide, Truitt and Carruth developed an evaluation form for the requests. Each request was scored on a scale of one to five in each of the following categories: impact, creativity, activities and goals, relevance to the arts, budget and overall presentation. At the end of June, Truitt and Carruth asked a varied group of eight community members made up of ministers, retired teachers, businesspeople and artists from Polk and Spartanburg County to meet for a single session to evaluate the grant requests. None of the evaluators currently works for or has children in any of the schools, but all share a common passion for children, arts and education. Dur(Continued on page 11)

ing the session, each application was read and scored by four different evaluators. No discussion was held regarding the projects. When their job was done, evaluators did not know which projects received funding. Evaluator Dr. Dent Davis said, “In our troubled and rapidly changing world, there are few more important things than teaching students how to be innovative and creative. The arts are a key part of that process. That’s a big reason why the B. I. G. (Be Inspired Grants) Program of the Tryon Fine Arts Center intrigued me. But reading the applications themselves was even more impressive. I was not prepared for the variety, and even the number of applications, their creativity, or the sheer numbers of students who could benefit from such a modest program. B. I. G. is a small project with a big impact, and a great way to enhance artistic opportunities for students in our community.” Following the evaluation session, the scores were tallied with the highest scores receiving full funding until $5,000 was met. Applicants were informed as to whether or not they received funding by email on July 1. TFAC will be holding a reception to award the grant funding on Aug. 21 for the teachers and their principals, as well as school administrators from both counties. TFAC is currently raising money to replace the $5,000 ad-

vanced by the board of directors. “We are anticipating a partnership with local businesses and individuals in this exciting project that will encourage creativity and the arts in our schools,” said Carruth. Tryon Fine Arts Center (TFAC) is a nonprofit organization that operates and programs a 300 seat performance venue and a 150 seat amphitheater for music, theatre, dance and lectures on Melrose Avenue in Tryon, N.C. In addition to presenting programming for a wide variety of audiences, TFAC also makes the arts accessible to local students through education and outreach programs.

Grandson of Tryon native drafted by pro hockey team Pro hockey team the NY Islanders in June drafted 18-year-old Eamon McAdam, grandson of Tryon resident Joan C. McAdam. After years of playing hockey, McAdam on June 3 walked down to meet the announcer and team big wigs. He slipped on the jersey and hat as his parents brimmed with pride. The son of Joan McAdam’s son Bryan McAdam and her daughterin-law Hope McAdam, Eamon has played hockey since he was 9.
From Perkasie, Penn., hockey has been a continued interest of Eamon’s since then. He played on various junior teams until he went to play on the Waterloo, Iowa Blackhawks Team, where he billeted with a local family for three years, and finished high school. In 2012, things really started to take off for him. In August, he led the Waterloo Blackhawks Team to the Junior Club World Cup in Omsk, Russia and was named best goaltender of the tournament. In
September he landed a spot in the inaugural USA Hockey All American Prospects game. In November, he goal tended in a USA Hockey World Junior Challenge Team, earning a 4-0 record and helping the team get the gold medal, defeating Canada. In January 2013, one of his goal saves wound up on ESPN Sportcenter Plays of the Week. In August he begins college at Penn State. – information submitted by Ray Froehlich

Spartanburg Little Theatre announces 2013-2014 season The Spartanburg Little Theatre is excited to announce its upcoming 2013-14 season. Featuring five exciting productions never before performed on the Little Theatre stage, the Spartanburg Little Theatre’s 2013-2014 season offers the live, local entertainment. Singin’ in the Rain: Sept. 13-22 There will be a 100 percent chance of showers when this exciting adaption of one of the most loved and celebrated movie musicals of all time hits the stage. This clever and charming adaptation of the 1952 MGM film musical unforgettably tells the story of the first Hollywood movie musical, a time when the silver screen found its voice and left the silent movies and some of its stars behind. Featuring a glorious score that includes “Good Morning,” “Make ‘em Laugh,” “Moses Supposes” and the classic
title song, Singin’ in the Rain is sure to make a splash. Dial “M” for Murder: Nov. 8-17 Retired professional tennis star Tony Wendice has married his wife, Margot, for her money and now plans to murder her for the very same reason. He arranges the perfect murder but watches helplessly as his carefully crafted plan spirals out of control. Does Tony still have the reflexes to play the game? Or will Margot win the final set? Made famous by Alfred Hitchcock’s 1954 film version starring Grace Kelly, Dial “M” for Murder proves that there is no such thing as the perfect crime. Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story: Jan. 10-19 Buddy Holly was a brilliant musician who changed the face of popular music and paved the way for the next generation of rock’n’rollers. Follow Buddy’s meteoric rise to fame, from his
humble country music roots to the top of the record charts and his untimely death in 1959. You’ll be cheering for more and dancing in the aisles to such rousing fifties favorites as “Peggy Sue,” “Oh Boy,” “Maybe Baby,” “That’ll Be the Day,” “Raining In My Heart,” Ritchie Valens’ “La Bamba,” and the Big Bopper’s “Chantilly Lace.” 9 to 5: The Musical: March 7-16 With music and lyrics by Dolly Parton, 9 to 5: The Musical is a hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era. Pushed to the boiling point, three female co-workers concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss. They conspire to take control of their company and learn there’s nothing they can’t do – even in a man’s world. Outrageous, thought-provoking, and even a little romantic, 9 to 5:
The Musical is about teaming up and taking care of business. Boeing Boeing: May 2-11 Glamour-boy architect Bernard simultaneously juggles Italian, German, and American fiancees, each a beautiful airline hostess. Tracking their airlines’ timetables and scheduling nonconvergent “layovers,” he keeps “one up, one down and one pending,” until unexpected schedule changes and the introduction of a faster Boeing jet bring all three to Paris and his apartment at the same time. Fasten your seatbelts for this side-splitting unraveling of one man’s careful, romantic planning. Season tickets are currently available and individual tickets go on sale at the Chapman Cultural Center on Aug. 12.

Brush painting. (photo submitted)
Local artist teaching chinese brush painting workshop Christine Mariotti, local artist with a special interest in Chinese brush painting will conduct a workshop on this unique style of painting on Saturday, August 3. The workshop will run from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the studios and gallery of the Tryon Painters and Sculptors, located at 26 Maple Street in Tryon. Before moving to Tryon in 2008, Mariotti lived and worked in southern California where she studied for 10 years with Chinese painting master, Ning Yeh. Mr. Yeh has written and illustrated numerous books and made dozens of videos for cable television, some of which won Emmys for their outstanding presentation in the field of art demonstrations.
Mariotti also traveled to China twice with Mr. Yeh and his tour group and is well versed in Chinese culture and history. The spontaneity often seen in the brush strokes of fine Chinese brush paintings is somewhat deceiving as much practice is needed to obtain them. The workshop is a good way to sample this beautiful art form without investing in many materials and to understand the discipline required to learn it. For more information about the workshop and to register, contact Christine Mariotti at 828-859-8392 or cmariotti@ windstream.net. - article submitted by Christine Mariotti

Whose fault is it? Humane Society Special Cases Leonard Rizzo
Last Friday at the vets’ office I was asked to come and look at a dog. The owners were asked if I could look at the dog and they said okay. I gazed at this 5-month-old Boxer and began shaking with anger, pity and frustration. What I saw before me was a young Boxer covered with demodex mange. His body was full of scabs and sores and his paws were all bloody and swelled to twice the normal size. He couldn’t even figure out how to lie down without discomfort and pain. I don’t know how to process the kind of thinking (Continued on page 19)

Democratic Women plan fundraiser for teacher classroom supplies Citizens of Polk County, your help is needed as our children’s future is on the line. The legislature has cut the K-12 public education funds on the budget for each of the last several years. Recently another $700,000 or so was cut for the coming school year. The community’s help is vital if Polk County’s children are
to continue getting the quality education they deserve. The Democratic Women’s Club of Polk County will hold a fundraising breakfast at Democratic Headquarters Saturday, Aug. 3 beginning at 8 a.m. All proceeds will go to help purchase teacher classroom supplies. - article submitted by Katharine Smith

stances, this puppy should have been cared for sooner but all I heard were excuses. He’s an outside dog, whatever the heck that means. I think of two people in charge of watching a puppy and somehow it escapes and falls into a pool. The two people stand there and argue about whose fault it was while the puppy drowns. If you think that’s a bit harsh, welcome to my world. On Monday evening I received a call from the Boxer’s owners, they were going to pay for his medicine and care for him at home, and they would pick him up on Tuesday. I was also told a new shelter was being built for him. There wasn’t anything I could do so I asked if I could visit him in a few weeks to see how he’s doing. “No problem,” I was told, “come any time.” On Tuesday morning I went to visit and pray for him because I couldn’t make my usual promise that all will be alright. I learned at that time that his owners were offended that I had interfered on how they should care for their dog. Isn’t that typical? I hope that someone who has authority reads this and makes a visit themselves or with me. I also hope I’m made the fool and the dog in question becomes a happy and healthy companion in his owners’ hands. Thanks for listening.
(continued from page 18)
that would allow such a thing to happen. I received the phone number and called the owners, offering to pay all expenses and for whatever it took to make him whole and happy again, if they would turn him over to me. I was told the Boxer contracted the mange while they were on a three-day trip and a friend was watching him. I was also told the vets had given them antibiotics and his condition occurred rapidly. Keeping my calm I said, “If you love him at all, please let me have him, I promise he’ll have the best life possible.” “I’ll ask my wife,” I was told by the gentleman, “and I’ll let you know tomorrow.” There was nothing I could do then but pray, which I did with all my might. My wife had asked me the day before why I was crying in church. All I could think of was that this poor boy doesn’t know any better, he thinks that this is how life is supposed to be. He’s very sweet and will attempt the Boxer wiggle for the least bit of attention, but this is not because of its owners, it is in spite of them. There ought to be laws against such things happening and if there are, let’s find a way to enforce them better. No matter what the circum-

Goodwin provides another ‘better piano’ for McCune Center Columbus Lion Garland Goodwin, registered pianotechnician, has made it his business to care for the pianos at the Western Carolina Lions’ Marjorie McCune Memorial Center in Blacksburg, N.C. The center provides assisted living for some 60 residents, only some of whom are Lions. The first piano Lion Goodwin found there was a worn out spinet with more than a dozen strings broken out of the treble section, so he set about replacing it while simply tuning another spinet in somewhat better condition in the chapel. He put the word out among his colleagues in the Piano Technicians Guild, and friend Harvey Miller offered his Baldwin vertical piano, since he had recently acquired a fine grand piano. Another Guild friend, Shane Owenby, delivered the Baldwin to the Sun Room at McCune and picked up the derelict there, all
for free. Priscilla Eichelberger recently closed her mountaintop home here and offered her Yamaha to Lion Garland for a “good home.” He suggested the Chapel at McCune, and she was delighted. Again, Owenby sent a crew to take the Yamaha to his shop in Weaverville, N.C. for evaluation. He advised that several cords on the hammer flanges were broken and that replacement of all of them would be better than doing them piecemeal as they continued to break. A total of 88 new flanges were duly ordered, paid for by the McCune Center, and installed by Lion Goodwin. Shane’s crew delivered the piano to McCune Chapel and picked up the tired spinet. Lion Goodwin finished going over the piano and then tuned it so it would be ready for Sunday services. The spinet piano will not be

Helping seniors extend their driving years Dear Savvy Senior, What tips or resources can you recommend to help seniors with their driving skills? My 84-year-old mother is still a capable driver, but she has declined a little in recent years and could definitely use some help. ~ Concerned Daughter Dear Concerned, With more and more Americans driving well into their 70s, 80s and beyond, there are lots of tips, tools and programs available today to help elderly seniors drive safer and longer. Here are several that may help. Schedule an eye exam: Because about 90 percent of the information necessary to drive is received through our eyes, this is a good first step in ensuring your mom’s driving safety. Get your mom’s eyes checked every year to be sure her vision is up to par. Check her meds: Does your mom take any medicine or combination of medicines that could impair her driving? A new resource that can help with this is Roadwise Rx, an online assessment tool at roadwiserx.com that provides personalized feedback on how the medications your mom is taking can impact her safety behind the wheel. Evaluate her driving: A doit-yourself driving assessment is a simple way to help your mom get a handle on her driving abilities and vulnerabilities. The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety has some great resources on their website to help with this. Just go to seniordriving.aaa.com, click on “Evaluate Your Driving Ability� then on “Self-Rating Tool� and have her take the Drivers 65Plus self-rating exercise. Then, click on “Interactive Driving Evaluation� and download the AAA Roadwise Review. This is a free confidential online screening tool that will test her vision and reaction time, which are very important for safe driving. Take a refresher course: AARP and AAA both have older driver refresher courses that can help your mom brush up her
Savvy Senior driving skills, and learn how to manage and accommodate common age-related changes in vision, hearing and reaction time. Taking a class may also earn her a discount on her auto insurance. To locate a class, contact your local AAA (aaa.com) or AARP (aarp.org/drive, 888-227-7669). Most courses cost under $20 and can be taken in the classroom or online. Another good resource to look into is CarFit. This is a free assessment program that will help your mom adjust her vehicle for a better fit, making it easier and safer to drive. CarFit events are held around the country in select locations. See car-fit.org to look for one near you. Get a professional assessment: If your mom needs some extra help, consider getting a professional assessment done by a driver rehabilitation specialist. They will evaluate her driving ability and test for things like reaction time, decision-making skills, as well as how well she and her car fit together, pinpointing trouble areas and offering solutions. This type of assessment can cost several hundred dollars. To locate a professional, contact the Association of Driver Rehabilitation Specialists (driv-
er-ed.org, 866-672-9466) or the American Occupational Therapy Association (www.aota.org). Make some adjustments: Recognizing vulnerabilities and adapting her driving habits to compensate for them can go a long way in helping keep your mom safe and driving longer. Some simple adjustments include not driving after dark or during rush hour traffic, avoiding major highways or other busy roads and not driving in poor weather conditions. It’s also good to know if there are any older driver’s license renewal provisions in your mom’s state, which you can get by calling her nearby driver’s license office or at iihs.org/laws/ olderdrivers.aspx. When to quit: If it gets to the point that your mom’s driving isn’t safe anymore and she needs to quit, The Hartford Financial Services Group and MIT AgeLab provides online resources and free publications like “We Need to Talk: Family Conversations with Older Drivers� that you can access at safedrivingforalifetime. com. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior� book.

Happiness is the acceptance of reality Conservation Corner Betsy Burdett
Happiness is the acceptance of reality, and living in accordance with that reality. We live in a culture that “dreams the big dream” where everyone can “be whatever you want to be” and “live the good life” with more stuff than our forefathers could even imagine. The fact that they couldn’t even imagine wanting so much stuff is a minor point. Fact: We are pumping more water out of the ground than is being replaced by natural processes. I’m working in the camp kitchen again this summer; watching thousands of gallons of water get wasted every day. None of the kitchen workers, staff or campers have any clue that they are adding to the problem. The camp is built beside a generously flowing creek, so that we fall asleep
to the sound of the water cascading down the mountain. But the water that we use is coming from deep down in the ground. What we are seeing and hearing will flow into the Green River, then the Broad River, then into the Atlantic. Then it will evaporate and come down to earth as rain, taking years to sink down to the level of the well. How many years? Most of us will be long gone by that time. Fact: The hemlocks are dying; 90 percent of them will be gone in the next 10 years. Many of us have been saying that the wooly adelgid will pass through and leave lots of hemlocks untouched; those folks are the happy ones in denial. Some folks have treated the hemlocks on their land (as we have done so here at camp) saving as many as possible, even though the herbicide that kills the wooly adelgid also kills moths and butterflies. Those folks are the ones who are doing their best to address the problem. But
thousands of hemlocks are dying in the forests, and the forests through which our grandchildren will walk will be much different than what is there now. Maybe there will be more wildflowers because more sunlight will reach the forest floor. I want to live long enough to see what changes are in store. Fact: Timber rattlesnakes are now an endangered species. We have killed rattlesnakes even when they were of no threat to us, as we have killed every kind of snake because we hate snakes. We are afraid of snakes, The Bible says snakes are evil, so we are justified in killing them. I’ve always thought of rattlesnakes as being a most polite snake, in that a rattlesnake will always warn you before he strikes. It is our choice to back away and let the snake live, or we can choose to kill it. Because men have killed all kinds of snakes. Habitat is now wide open for copperheads, which are far less
Friday, August 2, 2013
polite than the regal rattlesnake. It is a change that we have made possible, and we must deal with the consequences. I killed a copperhead at the chicken house last week, and I did not like doing it. That snake did not choose to be born a copperhead, to be despised by humans and killed whenever it’s in the wrong placed at the wrong time. It would have been much better for a king snake to occupy that bit of land, or even a black snake. It may seem silly, but I did ask for forgiveness. Killing anything seems wrong to me. Life is easier to handle once each of us has swallowed the humble pill: The world is hurting, and we are a part of what has caused that pain. We can also accept the facts and live our lives accordingly, making changes in the way we think and act, one step at a time. Hopefully we can do a better job, given better information and the ability to make choices, than the generation before us. I’m not sure they had all the information; we do.

Donna Everett (PCHS), Emmie Watson (Eastside HS, Greenville, S.C.) and Jacqueline Brown-Williams (PCHS) recently returned from a trip to Poland where they taught English. (photo submitted)
Polk County High School teachers return from Poland Polk County High School teachers Jacque Brown-Williams, theatre arts instructor, and Donna Everett, English instructor, spent the first two weeks of July teaching in the Kosciuszko Foundation’s Teaching English in Poland Program. Each summer, 50 American teachers and teaching assistants volunteer to teach Polish students ages 8 – 18, in either the Arts Enriched English Language Camps or the English Language American Culture Camp. The American staff receives no funding or stipends for their travel or teaching. This summer, Brown-Williams and Everett taught together at the newest TEIP camp in Otwock, Poland outside of Warsaw, the Polish capital. Otwock is the home of Irena Sendler, often called the
‘Female Schindler’ for her daring rescues of more than 2,500 Jewish children from the Warsaw Ghetto. In honor of Sendler’s life, Everett, the theatre teacher for the camp, had the advanced students perform a section from the play “Life in a Jar” based on Sendler’s life. This was the first year for Everett to teach in Poland, but Brown-Williams returned for her seventh year with the program. Otwock was her fourth camp; other camps she has taught at include Pryztok in western Poland, Załęcze in south central Poland and Barlewiczki in northern Poland. This year, Brown-Williams taught American folk dance and was the assistant director. The Teaching English in Poland Program (TEIP) is currently organized and conducted by The
Kościuszko Foundation, with the endorsement of The Polish National Commission for UNESCO. Active financial support is under the auspices of local foundations and non-profit organizations in the locale of the camps. TEIP provides hundreds of Polish students (upper elementary through high school) with instruction in conversational English within an American cultural context. It also enables numerous American teachers and students to become acquainted with the people, history, language and culture of Poland. For more information about Teaching English in Poland or about The Kosciusko Foundation, contact Jacque Brown-Williams at 828-859-3124. – article submitted by Jacque Brown-Williams
