Church closes with Grace By Loretta Cozart Grace United Methodist Church in Kings Mountain held its final worship service December 29 at 9:45 am. Many current and former members were in attendance. The history of Grace United Methodist Church is a long one, the congregation having formed in the early 1800’s in a one-room log building known as Kelly’s Chapel. When the church moved to Linwood Road, they gave the log building to a black congregation. On Linwood Road, the church took the name of Bradley’s Chapel, under the leadership of F.W. Bradley. They remained in that location until the building was destroyed by a windstorm in the early 1900’s. From there the congregation moved to their current location on Church Street where it took the name Grace. It is thought that Rev. A. L. Johnson, pastor at the time, named the church for his sweetheart, Grace. During this time, the

On December 27, at approximately 12:57 pm, Kings Mountain Police responded to a report of what appeared to be, on a fish finder, a submerged vehicle near the Camp Creek Church Road boat ramp at Moss Lake. Through a coordinated effort, it was determined that a truck was approximately 27-feet below the surface. The vehicle was extracted through the help of Kings Mountain, Oak Grove Fire Departments,
and Lincoln County Sheriff’s Department Dive Team. Gaston County’s Emergency Management System and automotive recovery specialists from the surrounding area also assisted. Upon recovery of the vehicle, it was learned that the vehicle had been reported stolen from Cherokee County, South Carolina on October 16, 2004. Proper authorities were notified, and the vehicle was removed from the National Criminal Information Center database. Due to the ongoing nature of the investigation, photos of the vehicle were not made available. The Herald share more information as it becomes available.

According to the Food and Drug Administration, “On December 20, 2019, the President signed legislation to amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and raise the federal minimum age of sale of tobacco products from 18 to 21 years. It is now illegal for a retailer to sell any tobacco product – including cigarettes, cigars and e-cigarettes – to anyone under 21. FDA will provide additional details on this issue as they become available.” That law also gives the FDA 180 days to write regulations to implement the new age requirement and states that the regulations
are to go into effect no more than 90 days after regulations are finalized. While time was provided to write implementation regulations, allowing no more than 90 days for them to go into effect after they are finalized, the law says it is now illegal for retailer to sell tobacco products to anyone under the age of 21. National Association of Convenience stores wrote Director Mitch Zeller, Center for Tobacco Products of the U.S. Food & Drug Administration citing that, “Retailers, for example, must update training materials and signage. Then, they must train millions of employees across the country. See TOBACCO, Page 7A

Harris Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Kings Mountain, NC is in charge of arrangements.
The Hord Mansion, now known as Mauney Memorial Library, will celebrate its centennial in 2023. It is hard to imagine that Kings Mountain was only 49-years old when the home was built and that both W.A. Mauney and J.S. Mauney were both alive to see it completed. We know a great deal about the Mauney’s and the history of the library. The history of this Hord family is less known but of equal importance and interest. The following is taken from the National Register of Historic Places Registration Form, submitted by Kevin Cherry in 2014. The purpose of the submission was to place Mauney Memorial Library on the Register of Historic Places and record the social and educational history of Kings Mountain regarding the efforts of its citizens and government alike to undertake and maintain facilities for the welfare and betterment of its residents. Dr. Jacob George Van Buren Hord held a leading role in the civic, social, and commercial life of the town while also having a successful medical practice. A native of Cleveland County and a son of Jesse (182? -1911) and Elizabeth Hord, he attended the University of North Carolina, graduated from Tennessee State Normal College, Nashville, Tennessee, in 1889, and received his medical degree in 1891 in Louisville, Kentucky. On 25 November 1891, he married Mattie White (1867-1895) who died from complications with the birth of the couple's third son, William E. Hord (1895). Otto Leon Hord (18931920), alone of the three, lived to adulthood. Dr. Hord next married Carrie Belle White (18771940), his wife's younger sister: they were the parents of nine children, the lastborn and last surviving of whom was Carolyn Rebecca Hord Harris (1919-2013). The Misses White were the daughters of William White (1838- 1916) and his wife, who lived with their family
Jacob George Van Buren Hord in a house in the southeast comer off King Street and Piedmont Avenue. On 19 January 1892, within two months of his marriage, Dr. Hord purchased the lot in the southwest corner of Piedmont A venue and King Street, with a frontage of 100 feet on South Piedmont Avenue and 218 feet along West King Street, from Philip Sylvanus Baker (1848-1907) and his wife Selena Ellen Patterson Baker (1850- 1912). The property was described in the deed "as the old School House lot" and had been the site of one of the earliest known schools in Kings Mountain, which dated to ca. 1875 and was taught by Alexander Aderholdt. Whether the Hords immediately made their home here is unconfirmed but very likely. The lot was at the intersection of King Street, later US 74, the principal east/ west artery through Kings Mountain, and Piedmont Avenue, which was long a principal residential avenue in Kings Mountain and, through time, also boasted the churches of the town's five leading congregations, the Kings Mountain Town Hall (1937-1979), the United States Post Office (1939-1987), and the offices and plant of the Kings Mountain Herald along its length. On 23 October 1907 Dr. Hord increased this holding by purchasing a rectangular lot on its west end, measuring 65 by 250 feet, with a West King Street frontage of sixty-five feet, from A. J. Stockton and his wife. it was on this enlarged, L-shaped
Hiking to better health By Loretta Cozart With the New Year just begun, many have resolved to work toward better health during the coming year. Many options are available, but few are as inexpensive and available than hiking. Novice and experienced hikers can take advantage of local opportunities. If you are just beginning to hike, fewer locations are as easily accessible as Patriot’s Park in downtown Kings Mountain. The wide paved walkway is easy to maneuver and offers a variety of inclines. Along the way, seating is available. Even if the walk is easy for you, be sure to take a moment to appreciate this beautiful space open to all. For the more adventuresome, a variety of trails are available within a few miles of Kings Mountain, enabling hikers’ quick access. If you are just beginning to hike, don’t push your limits. Walk shorter distances, or to a specific location along the trail, and then turn back. Over time, you will be able to walk farther and build your endurance. Be sure to wear appropriate footwear, clothing, and carry plenty of water. The Gateway Trail in

Mauney Memorial Library corner lot, of the many properties he owned, that he built the house in ca. 1923, which became his family's legacy to Kings Mountain and remains, some ninety years later, a landmark in its townscape. The architect and builder of the house are not known at present. Jacob George Van Buren Hord died on 4 January 1930 and was buried in Mountain Rest Cemetery in the family plot that held the graves of his first wife and their three sons, those of two infants born in 1900 and 1901 of his second wife, and the graves of his wives's parents, William White (1838-1916) and Margaret J. White (18401895). His will, signed on 16 September 1922 and acknowledging the relative youth of the children of his second marriage, left his estate intact under the administration of his widow until the youngest child, Carolyn Rebecca Hord, came of age. Carrie Belle White Hord resided at the family house with her unmarried children, including her daughters Mary Frances Hord and Maude Eunice Hord (19171948), until her death on 25 November 1940. In her will she made provisions for those daughters and the recently married Carolyn Hord Harris, a special cash bequest to James Edwin Hord, her only surviving son, and she bequeathed her estate in equal shares to her at the Gateway. The trail then turns right onto the loop trail then right again onto the Foote Trail that heads south to I-85 and on past to Galilee Church Road. The new section of trail on the south side of I-85 is great for flat surface walking and biking. That’s good for those who want to bring children and their bicycles. You can park at the trail entrance at the end of Industrial Drive just off hwy. 161. Go south over I-85 and Industrial Drive is to the right. If you’d like to include some history in your hike, visit Kings Mountain National Military Park just 8 miles south of town. The park has three trails and often offers group hikes, so check their Facebook page for opportunities. The Battlefield Trail is a 1.5-mile self-guiding walking trail that allows visitors to see both perspectives of the battlefield. Wayside exhibits around the trail highlight battle events. This paved trail is foot travel only, except for motorized wheelchairs. Although the trail is paved it is steep in places. Benches are located along the trail. Browns Mountain Trail is a 2.5-mile trail from the visitor center to Browns Mountain. This is not a loop trail, so you must backtrack to get back to the visitor center. A
six surviving children. Her obituary, published on the front page of the Kings Mountain Herald on 28 November 1940, acknowledged that "Mrs. Hord ... since the death of her husband several years ago has shouldered the burden of the management of large real estate holdings." The Hord House remained the residence of the unmarried sisters for some time, through the marriage of Mary Frances Hord to Thomas White Cothran, and the property of the Hord heirs into October 1946. On 21 October 1946 the Hord heirs conveyed the family house and its two-parcel lot to the Mauney family for the price of $26,500: the deed conveyed the property to William Kemp and Dorris Carl Mauney. The deed conveying the former Hord residence to the City of Kings Mountain was executed by Messrs. Mauney and their wives, on behalf of the Mauney family, on 1 November 1947. The first condition written in the deed defined the donation and provided for the eventual expansion of the library. "That it be used for a public library and teachers Home and in the event the library should grow and expand and thereby need more room, in that event a part or all of the Teachers Home may be used for the library.
Most residents are familiar with the story of Jacob S. Mauney’s heirs purchasing the Hord Mansion and converting it into a library and teacherage. But the history of Dr. Jacob George Van Buren Hord, his wives and heirs is less known. His is an equally compelling story. According to his descendant, Ruth Hord Craft shared in the Heritage of Cleveland County, that at the time of his death, Dr. Hord was one of the largest landowners in Cleveland County, having property in Oklahoma and in the eastern and western part of NC. He was also one of the organizers and incorporators of Peoples Loan and Trust Company of Kings Mountain. It is interesting to note that the lot on which William White and Margaret J. White, the in-laws of Dr. Hord lived, was located directly across Piedmont Avenue from the Hord Mansion. In 1926, the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey built an Esso station on that lot. Norman Fuller McGill, Sr. and his descendants ran that business of decades before the station closed. Dr. Hord’s mother-in-law was Margaret McGill, according to Ruth Hord Craft. Knowing that helps in the understanding the history of that property.

total hike of 5 miles. This trail leads to higher areas where the highflying hawks and vultures can best be seen Clarks Creek Trail leads to Lake Crawford in Kings Mountain State Park, a 3-mile trail from the visitor center to the lake. This is not a loop trail, so you must backtrack to get back to the visitor center. A total hike of 6 miles. Crowders Mountain State Park is a short drive, depending upon where you wish to access the trail. If you choose to hike the peaks of Crowders Mountain to Kings Mountain Pinnacle, known as Pinnacle Trail, the hike is more strenuous. The views are beautiful and ends at the highest point in Gaston County at 1,705 feet. If you wish to make a shorter hike of it, take the Fern Trail, which is an 0.80
mile loop trail begins at picnic shelter number 1, connects with a portion of the Turn-back Trail and follows a creek for some portions of the trail. Whether you are new to hiking, or an experienced hiker, Kings Mountain offers a variety of hiking options in town and within a short drive. The weather of the NC Piedmont varies daily, so plan to keep your New Year’s resolution to get or stay healthy. With a plan to hike as often as you can, you can enjoy nature and take care of your physical and mental health. Walking allows you to disconnect from wireless devices and enjoy nature, while exercising muscles and the heart.

The Bullard family, living in the Oak Grove community, returned home on Christmas Day to find a fire in their home. According to the Oak Grove Fire Department, “The fire was contained to the kitchen, however the remainder of the home received smoke damage. Structurally the home can be rebuilt, and the home was insured,” they shared. “Departments from Oak Grove, Waco and Bethle-
hem fire departments responded, and the fire was under control in about 10 minutes.” American Legion Post 155 offered their ballroom as a donation staging point, allowing the family to replace many household items lost in the fire.Joel Summit, Director of the Legion Riders said, “We were overwhelmed with the response from the community and our Legion family. We had a dinning table and chairs, sofa, and beds donated. Many of the big items have
been taken care of already. People donated toys for the children, too. The biggest challenge is that the entire kitchen was lost, so many items will be needed once the house is repaired and the family can move back into the home.” Thanks to the generosity of many, the Bullard family has all the items they need for their home once the kitchen is rebuilt and cleaned of smoke damage.

Friday, Burr issued the following statement on the death of Qassem Soleimani, head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force, a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization: “Qassem Soleimani
was the personification of a state sponsor of terrorism. At his direction, hundreds of American servicemen were killed and thousands more injured. At his urging, U.S. allies were attacked repeatedly and undermined by Iran’s Quds Force and their proxies. “Under Soleimani, Iran has become the single most destabilizing force in the Middle East and an exporter of tyranny throughout the region. The blood of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis, Yemenis, Syrians, Israelis, and countless others is on his
hands. “Soleimani is also responsible in part for Iran’s current economic strife, as he put his violent campaigns and the enrichment of the corrupt Quds Force ahead of the interests of the Iranian people. “Iran and the Iranian people can now turn away from Soleimani’s murderous adventurism, redirect the Quds Force’s money into Iran’s economy, bring home the troops Soleimani sent abroad, and move forward toward building a more peaceful region.”

From Page 1A Methodist (since 1968) and sponsored a new congregation, Penley’s Chapel United Methodist Church, now an independent church. The closing of Grace Methodist church began long before the doors closed in 2019, years before in fact. On Nov. 10 the Church Legacy Initiative Associate, Reverend Angela Hollar, told the congregation that they had been in decline since 1974, which means Grace was losing more members, due to death and attrition, than it was receiving by professions of faith. Grace Church was given a list of four goals to improve worship attendance and church finances. One week later, on November 17, members decided they were not able to accomplish those goals. This decision, along with restricted finances, led to the December 31 closing date.

charged with the future use of the property. Everything in Grace's sanctuary was left intact, so that if another church purchases the church, they can begin to worship. Wesley helps congregations re-think how property that is not being fully used can better be deployed—or how new property can be developed— to serve church and community purposes.” During the closing, members were given an opportunity to retrieve sentimental items from the church. Each member received a United Methodist hymnal, a Cokesbury hymnal, a Faith We Sing hymnal, and a pew Bible. Many items in the church were given to six different churches. Donations were made to the Cub Scouts, Kings Mountain Crisis Ministry, and East School.

In the and surely not at 100 years middle of the two dates
is a dash that represents the years the person lived. Those obituaries always cause me to reflect on my life and ask myself a few questions: “What legacy will I leave? Am I living life to the fullest?” “How will I be remembered not only on the earth, but throughout eternity?” Every one of us can ask ourselves those questions, but where do we start in order to answer them? I believe what I call the “Triple P’s” can offer insight to these questions. They are: Priorities, Present, and Purpose.
Priorities Priorities is about making the main thing - the main thing, and keeping what’s important - important. For instance, relationships are crucial to fulfillment. However, sometimes they are neglected or abused. On the other hand, it takes time and effort to be more loving, attentive, and forgiving. Another example is realizing that prioritization assists us in choosing the specific areas that mean the most and giving them preeminence. Also, it steers our attention away from concerns that don’t really matter in the long run. Present Next, embrace and
enjoy the daily gift - the present. Each day is a fresh new start with 24 hours, 1440 minutes,and 86,440 seconds. Often, the day is spent dwelling on the past what ‘should’ve, could’ve, would’ve” happened - but it’s over. Learning from mistakes is therapeutic, but we can’t change the past or predict the future. What’s in our grasp is the moment that’s in front of us, with amazing possibilities. Let’s make it count! Purpose Lastly, we have an opportunity to focus on a divine “purpose driven” life. This means utilizing our time, talents,and treasures to bring glory to Jesus Christ. This includes add-
ing value to those around us and releasing the dreams that we have inside of us. We only have a short time on the earth to make an eternal difference. Psalm 90:12 states, “Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom”. Proverbs 9:10 also states, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” What will you do in your life to fill in “the dash”?

There are customers aged 18 to 20 who have been purchasing tobacco products – some of them for a year or two – who need to understand the law is changed and they can no longer purchase these products. Retail clerks should not be the first to inform these customers that they cannot purchase the products they want.

Duke Energy and NC regulators reach agreement that Duke must close coal ash basins. Photos courtesy Duke Energy
Duke Energy, NC regulators and environmentalists reach agreement CHARLOTTE, N.C. – In a major achievement that puts the coal ash debate to rest in North Carolina, state regulators, community groups and Duke Energy have agreed to a plan to permanently close the company’s remaining nine coal ash basins in the state, primarily by excavation with ash moved to lined landfills. The agreement announced Jan. 2 by Duke Energy, North Carolina’s Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) and groups represented by the Southern Environmental Law Center (SELC) details a reasonable and prudent plan for basin closure that continues to protect people, communities and the environment with a keen focus on investing for the future and our shared clean energy vision. This plan is consistent with the approach Duke Energy is taking to close ash basins in South Carolina and benefits customers and communities in both states. “This agreement significantly reduces the cost to close our coal ash basins in the Carolinas for our customers, while delivering the same environmental benefits as full excavation,” said Stephen De May, North Carolina president, Duke Energy. “We are fully focused on these important activities and building a clean energy future for the Carolinas.” Under the agreement, seven of the basins will be excavated, with ash moved to lined landfills, including two at the Allen Steam Station (Belmont, N.C.), one at Belews Creek Steam Station (Belews Creek, N.C.), one at Mayo Plant (Roxboro, N.C.), one basin at the Roxboro Plant (Semora, N.C.) and two at the Cliffside/Rogers Energy Complex (Mooresboro, N.C.). At the Marshall Steam Station (Terrell, N.C.)
and the Roxboro Plant, uncapped basin ash will be excavated and moved to lined landfills. At both locations, sections of the basins were filled with ash in the past. To make use of that space, state permitted facilities, including existing lined landfills, were built on top of those portions of the ash basins. Because the ash underneath is already covered, that material will not be disturbed and will be monitored and safely closed under other state regulations. Under the plan, almost 80 million tons of ash will be excavated from the remaining sites. The company is already removing ash from basins at other facilities, bringing the total amount of material to be excavated in North Carolina to approximately 124 million tons. The agreement calls for expedited state permit approvals which would keep projects on a rapid timeline with excavation at the six sites completed in 10 to 15 years.
Protecting groundwater The agreement also ensures that impacted groundwater is addressed and includes provisions to streamline the process for this important work. Drinking and recreational water supplies are safe now, and
Corrective Action Plans will address groundwater at each site to ensure those supplies remain protected. At Roxboro and Marshall, for example, Duke Energy will install specialized wells and other technology at specific locations to ensure that groundwater conditions improve and comply with standards by 2029, assuming plans are expeditiously approved by the state. Promoting recycling As previously announced, Duke Energy is closing all of its coal ash basins, including 31 in North Carolina. Basin excavation is completed or nearly completed at 10 basins at the Asheville Plant, Dan River Plant (Eden, N.C.), Riverbend Steam Station (Mt. Holly, N.C.), Sutton Plant (Wilmington, N.C.), Weatherspoon Plant (Lumberton, N.C.) and one basin at the Rogers Energy Complex. That material is being recycled or disposed of in lined landfills. Material from 12 basins at Buck Steam Station (Salisbury, N.C.), HF Lee Plant (Goldsboro, N.C.) and Cape Fear Plant (Moncure, N.C.) will be reprocessed and recycled into useful construction material. Recognizing that recycling is the only way to avoid permanent disposal of ash, the parties agree to explore opportunities to maximize recycling at those sites by extending closure deadlines to 2035. Resolves litigation The agreement completely resolves the pending disputes over ash basin closure plans being debated by the parties in various courts, including cases before the North Carolina Office of Administrative Hearings, North Carolina Superior Court and United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The parties will make the necessary court filings to dismiss each case.

Managing cost This plan will reduce the total estimated cost to close the nine basins by about $1.5 billion, as compared to the April 1, 2019 NCDEQ order requiring full excavation. As a result, the estimated total undiscounted cost to permanently close all ash basins in the Carolinas is now approximately $8 billion to $9 billion, of which approximately $2.4 billion has been spent through 2019. Most of the remaining expenditures are expected to occur over the next 15-20 years.

Kings Mountain’s Doriana Chambers drives the lane against South Pointe in non-conference game with South Pointe, SC, last week at Parker Gym. Photos by Gary Smart
Kings Mountain’s Saniya Wilson goes in for two of her 11 points in last week’s non-conference game with South Pionte at Parker Gym.
KM ladies beat Huss, unbeaten in BSC Kings Mountain High’s girls, defending champions of the Big South Conference, rolled to their third straight conference win Friday night at Hunter Huss, 59-47, but the defending champion Mountaineers dropped their first conference game, 81-66, as the Huskies rolled to their third straight league win to claim sole possession of the top spot. The Lady Mountaineers, who played a rugged non-conference schedule to get ready for the conference race, fought off several Huss comeback attempts to keep their conference record perfect. Saniya Wilson, who would finish as the game’s top scorer with 24 points, canned a three pointer at the first quarter buzzer to put the Lady Mountaineers up 17-15. The Lady Mountaineers began widening the gap in the second quarter and went into halftime up 31-19. KM would not lose the lead again but the Lady Huskies did have a couple of second half runs to pull within 10 points. Wilson had eight rebounds, four assists and four steals to go with her 24 points. Freshman Khalia King
had a big night with 15 points and three boards, as well junior Kennedy Barnes with 11 points and seven rebounds. Senior Essence Houser added five points and three rebounds and CoRey Simpson and Andrea Melton rounded out the scoring with two points apiece. Caitlin Pettis and Latetia Hoyle led the Lady Huskies with 18 and 12 points, respectively. KM’s JV girls got their first win of the season, 25-8. Sophomore Marlee Arnold led the way with 14 points. Tyasya Bell had six, Jacie Jarvis and Brooke Ferree two each, and Tye’Kecia Love one. The Hunter Huss boys broke open a close game by outscoring the Mountaineers 30-10 in the third quarter to win going away. KM had led 25-17 after the first quarter and 38-33 at intermission. The Huskies took the lead by scoring the first seven points of the second half and went on to lead 63-48 going into the final eight minutes. The Mountaineers were able to cut the deficit to 11 late in the game but Huss sealed the win at the foul line. Isaiah Tate led the Moun-

12.
Kings Mountain’s girls hosted a powerful Rock Hill South Pointe team over the Christmas holidays and fell 69-26. The South Pointe team,
which is ranked as the #1 team for all classifications in South Carolina, improved to 10-0 on the season while the Lady Mountaineers fell to 2-7 overall. Saniya Wilson led the
Lady Mountaineers with 11 points, four rebounds and two assists. Khalia King contributed nine points. Essence Houser added three, Monica Head two and Brooke Ferree one.
Mountaineers bomb Burns 80-54, girls lose 46-45 A fourth quarter comeback bid by the Lady Mountaineers fell short in a 46-45 loss to Burns, but the KM men rallied from an early deficit to take all of the bite out of the Bulldogs 80-54 in non-conference action Monday night at Parker Gym. The Bulldogs had the Mountaineers down 22-18 after the first period but KM held the Dogs to just
a two-point field goal in the second period to take a 35-24 lead into intermission. The Mountaineers substituted freely throughout the game and held a 52-39 lead going into the final period. Burns was able to close to within 57-48 with five minutes remaining but the Mountaineers outscored them 23-6 the rest of the way.
Ten Mountaineers got into the scoring act with Isaiah Tate leading the way with 20 points. Kobe Paysour added 18 and Westin Hughes 16. Wells led the Bulldogs with 12 and Ty Goodson added 10. The Burns girls led by just 10-9 after the first period but held KM to five points in the second quarter to take a 22-14 halftime lead. They still led 30-24
going into the fourth quarter. Trailing 44-35 with just over two minutes remaining, Andrea Melton sparked KM rally that almost pulled out the victory. She stole the ball and went in for a layup to trim the margin to 41-37, and on the very next Burns possession she did it again and all of a sudden it was 41-39. Burns rallied to go up by 46-39
Melton eight points, two boards and three steals, Essence Houser three points and two rebounds, Kennedy Barnes two points and six rebounds, and Monica Head one point. Macey Earl led the Burns attack with 10 points. In JV girls action, KM won 24-11 behind a 17-point effort by Brooke Ferree. See BOMB, Page 2B
but threes by Khalia King and Sanyia Wilson’s made it 46-45 with 33 seconds to go. Burns had three straight turnovers and KM had an opportunity to tie the game on a free throw with 12 seconds left but missed. Saniya Wilson led the KM attack with 19 points, four rebounds and two assists. Khalia King had 12 points and two boards,

Downs. “Without compromising the exceptionally high quality of a GWU degree, we are freezing tuition costs and reaching out directly to the communities that surround us with new financial incentives. These are our neighbors, and these are the families for whom Gardner-Webb was founded 115 years ago… we’re eager to make our University accessible and affordable for them.” In addition, Setzer noted, Gardner-Webb is
offering a $3,000 grant for first-year transfer students coming from Cleveland Community College. Setzer and the enrollment team hope these financial incentives will help students in their decision-making process. “We offer a student-centered campus and world class academics, all within a vibrant Christian community,” she affirmed. “We want our local families to know that they are important to us and that a Gardner-Webb education is affordable.”

The reduced rate is renewable, and Cleveland, Gaston and Rutherford county residents who apply to GWU and meet the qualifications will automatically be a part of the program.

Competition to provide access to capital, training resources, and social connections to underserved populations. The Cleveland Community College Small Business Center is excited to announce it will partner with Small Business Centers in the region to support entrepreneurship through a pitch competition made possible by the support from the Fifth Third Bank Foundation. The “53 Ideas Pitch Competition” was designed to help address income inequality and equity through entrepreneurship. The competition will provide underserved individuals who participate with access to the capital, training resources, and social connections needed to remove barriers, and allow individuals to take an idea and turn it into a viable business. The top prize winner of the competition will receive $10,000 in seed money for a start-up business. “Fifth Third Bank is committed to strengthening our communities, and
we cannot do it alone: it takes strong and engaged partners to truly make a difference,” said Lee Fite, regional president for Fifth Third Bank in the Mid-Atlantic. “The ‘53 Ideas Pitch Competition’ addresses an essential link between economic mobility and entrepreneurship. The work our partners are doing to increase access to capital for entrepreneurs will directly benefit our community.” “Studies show that four out of five entrepreneurs do not access bank loans or venture capital. Rather, their sources of funding are personal net worth, family wealth, or connections to networks,” said Steve Padgett, Director of the Small Business Center. “Unfortunately, this leads to inequality in entrepreneurship. The ‘53 Ideas Pitch Competition’ seeks to expand opportunity for everyone in the greater Cleveland County region, especially those populations who may experience barriers or have limited access to resources to start a business.” The “53 Ideas Pitch Competition” is an open call for business ideas from residents across the region. Individuals will have
53 seconds to pitch their idea in the form of a video submission uploaded to 53ideas.com. The submission deadline is Feb. 20, 2020. For open, inclusive access to the needed technology, Cleveland Community College’s Small Business Center will be hosting pop-up recording events throughout the community. Visit 53ideas.com for pop-up dates and times. Judges will review the submissions and select the top 53 pitches. Top entrants will advance in the competition and receive a $50 award. Over the following 53 days, the participants will work to refine their ideas and master their pitch before another selection process. Training and coaching on pitching, marketing, financing, forecasting, and business law will be available to participants, regardless of whether they advance in the competition. Free resources will be offered by Small Business Centers located at community colleges throughout the region, including Central Piedmont, Cleveland, Gaston, Mitchell, Rowan-Cabarrus, South Piedmont, and Stanly.
After the 53-day training period, the top 53 entrants will participate in a closed pitch event where the judges will narrow the field down to 15. The top 15 will receive $200 each and go on to compete on stage for the top awards: first place receives $10,000; second place earns $5,000; and third place receives $2,500 in seed funding to help turn their ideas into a viable business. The 38 participants who did not advance can still showcase their ideas at an expo before the final pitch event. This gives these participants visibility with event attendees, as well as an opportunity to share their ideas and increase their social networks. “53 Ideas Pitch Competition” is made possible by the support from the Fifth Third Bank Foundation. Learn more about the “53 Ideas Pitch Competition” at www.53ideas. com or upload a video submission by the Feb. 20 deadline. For additional information, you may contact Steve Padgett, Director of the Small Business Center, at 704-669-4146, or email to padgetts@clevelandcc. edu.

Food Assistance Programs Can Help Seniors in Need Dear Savvy Senior, I would like to find out if my 73-yearold aunt is eligible for food stamps or any other type of food assistance program. It seems that she has a difficult time affording enough food each month, and I would like to help if I can. What can you tell me? Searching Niece,
Dear Searching, Sadly, millions of older Americans, like your aunt, struggle with food costs. According to a recent study by Feeding America, 5.5 million U.S. seniors age 60 and older are food insecure. Fortunately, there are several programs that may be able to help. Here’s what you should know. SNAP Benefits While there are millions of seniors who are eligible for food stamps, less than 40 percent actually take advantage of this benefit. Food stamps are now referred to as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. However, your state may use a different name. For seniors to get SNAP, their net income must be under the 100 percent
federal poverty guidelines. So, households that have at least one-person age 60 and older, or disabled, their net monthly income must be less than $1,041 per month for an individual or $1,410 for a family of two. Households receiving TANF or SSI are also eligible.
Net income is figured by taking gross income minus allowable deductions including a standard monthly deduction, medical expenses that exceed $35 per month out-of-pocket, and shelter expenses (rent or mortgage payments, taxes and utility costs) that exceeds half of the household’s income. In addition to the net income requirement, a few states also require that a senior’s assets be below $3,500, not counting their home, retirement or pension plans, income from SSI or TANF, and vehicle (this varies by state). Most states, however, have much higher asset limits or they don’t count assets at all when determining eligibility. To apply, seniors or an authorized representative will need to fill out a state application form, which can be done at the local SNAP office or, it can be
mailed or faxed in. In many states it can be completed online.
If eligible, benefits will be provided on a plastic card that’s used like a debit card and accepted at most grocery stores. The average SNAP benefit for 60-and-older households is around $125 per month. To learn more or apply, contact your local SNAP office – call 800-221-5689 for contact information or visit fns. usda.gov/snap. Other Programs In addition to SNAP, there are other federal programs that can help low-income seniors, age 60 and older, like the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) and the Senior Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP). The CSFP (see fns.usda.gov/csfp) is a program that provides supplemental food packages to seniors with income limits at or below the 130 percent poverty line. And the SFMNP (fns.usda.gov/sfmnp) provides seniors coupons that can be exchanged for fresh fruits and vege-
tables at farmers’ markets, roadside stands and community supported agriculture programs in select locations throughout the U.S. To be eligible, your aunt’s income must be below the 185 percent poverty level. There are also many Feeding America network food banks that host “Senior Grocery Programs” that provide free groceries to older adults, no strings attached. Contact your local food bank (see feedingamerica.org/find-your-local-foodbank) to find out if a program is available nearby. In addition to the food assistance programs, there are also various financial assistance programs that may help your aunt pay for medications, health care, utilities and more. To locate these programs, and learn how to apply for them, go to BenefitsCheckUp.org. 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.

Dr. Criswell’s most prominent contribution is his work as an advocate for Native American culture, with a special focus on Catawba potters and contemporary expressive traditions. His presentation will discuss the history and culture of the Catawba Indians, with an emphasis on pottery craft. He has worked in the fields of folklore and anthropology for over twenty years. A 1997 graduate of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, he has concentrated on the study and preservation of South Carolina traditions, customs, and cultural practices. This presentation is in conjunction with the mu-
seum’s upcoming exhibit, Language of Clay: Catawba Indian Pottery & Oral Traditions, February 11- May 9. Based on collections at the University of South Carolina Lancaster's Native American Studies Center, the Language of Clay exhibit examines Catawba Indian Pottery through contemporary and historical stories. These stories focus on the c.1900's to present through highlighting the history of the Catawba Indian Nation and the connections between their pottery and their oral traditions. The pieces selected demonstrate the evolution of styles and traditions that are in many ways distinctive between potters and their mentors. The exhibit is brought to the Kings Mountain Historical Museum by the Catawba Indian Nation. Kings Mountain Historical museum is located at 100 E. Mountain Street. For more information, call 704739-1019.

Seeds in Season offers winter respite The holidays are over, and the winter seems to stretch on for weeks to come. But the Uptown Shelby Association (USA) is offering a new event on Jan. 11, 2020, that will add some pizzazz to the gray days of early January. The Seeds in Season Winter Dinner will take place that Saturday evening at 6:30 p.m. at Uptown Indigo, located at 112 N. Lafayette St. in Shelby. “We’ll have a six-course culinary experience with beverage pairings in Uptown Indigo’s stunning event space,” says Audrey Whetten, USA executive director. “A talented team of chefs – led by Jamie Swofford of The Chef’s Farmer -- will prepare each course and will speak with guests about how locally sourced ingredients can inspire incredible meals even in the depth of winter.” Seats are very limited to ensure an intimate experience for guests. Tickets are $125 per person, with all proceeds supporting the efforts of the Uptown Shelby Association. “The theme of this Seeds in Season Winter Dinner is ‘preserve,’” says Whetten. “The menu will feature a variety of local foods preserved at the peak of freshness, whether smoked, cured, pickled, canned – and some even finished with fire. The theme also ties into the stunning rehabilitation of the historic Campbell building as well as the Uptown Shelby Association’s efforts to preserve historic buildings and foster a vibrant uptown district. The dinner will capture this historic essence and leave guests with a
night to remember.” Seeds in Season is a new series of events planned by the USA to be held throughout the year. “The events will range in format and pricing to offer a variety of opportunities for the community to participate and support the organization’s efforts in Uptown Shelby,” says Whetten. The next scheduled event will be a picnic on the Court Square on Saturday, May 9, 2020. The USA is an award-winning 501(c)(3) nonprofit that began as one of the first 30 Main Street® programs in the country. The organization works to enhance and celebrate the uptown district for the betterment and enjoyment of the community. The USA is an accredited member of the National Main Street Center and an active participant in the NC Main Street Program within the NC Department of Commerce, and has worked to revitalize the Uptown Shelby district for nearly 40 years. Its work includes marketing, community partnerships, business development, events and historic preservation. For more information about the Uptown Shelby Association or the Seeds in Season events, visit www.UptownShelby.com, search for “Uptown Shelby NC” on Facebook or call 704-484-3100.
