Robin Hood has nothing on Casar archer Anzlee Kilby Fifteen-year-old is a national level bow and arrow champ By Alan Hodge If legendary English archer Robin Hood could come back to life and meet up with 15-year-old Anzlee Kilby of Casar, he could probably pick up a few tips to improve his aim. That’s because Anzlee is a highly accomplished competitive bow and arrow athlete with a room full of trophies, medals, and other awards that she’s earned at archery events on a local, state, and national level. Anzlee, a ninth-grader at Pinnacle Classical Academy, was bitten by the archery bug at an early age. Her father,

Bobby, was the inspiration. “I would watch my father shooting targets in the backyard,” she said. “I got my first bow when I was five-yearsold.” It wasn’t long before her archery talent manifested itself, as well as the desire to pit her skill against other archers. “My first contest was in 2018 at Advance, N.C., when I was in fourth grade,” she said. From that initial tournament, there was no turning back. Anzlee Anzlee shows off a few estimates that she has of her many medals. taken part in at least
200 events. Places she and her dad and mom Miranda have travelled to are far-flung and include Lancaster, Pa., Cullman, Ala., Metropolis, Ill., and London, Ky. To name a few. “Some of the tournaments have as many as 2,000 contestants,” she said. Anzlee is a member of several competitive archery organizations. These include the Archery Shooters Association, USA Archery, Junior Olympic Archery Development and Scholastic 3D Archery. She has com-

The competitions are held at varied venues. “They can be indoor or outdoor events,” she says. Targets can be anything from paper to life size animals made of Styrofoam-like material. “We shoot at everything from hyenas to wart hogs,” she says. “The lynx is my favorite.” See KILBY, Page 6

KILBY From Page 1 The type of bow that Anzlee uses is called a compound type. It has a series of pulleys that multiply the force propelling the arrow. One of her favorites is made of carbon fiber and has an optical sight. “It takes about 36 pounds of force to pull back,” she says. Archery can be physically demanding and Anzlee trains for this. “I use things like elastic bands to build up my shoulder blades, back, and muscles,” she said. Coaching is a big part of competitive archery and Anzlee has two- Todd Tongel coach of the PCA Thunderbirds Archery Team, and Guy Hutcherson who is a Level 4 NTS coach and a North Carolina State USA Archery representative. “I am so proud of Anzlee’s dedication to this sport,” said Tongel. “She excels in both indoor and outdoor archery events and the dedication and time she puts into archery is simply amazing. I am proud to be her coach and we are proud to have her represent the PCA Thunderbirds Archery Team!” Hutcherson also had high praise for Anzlee. “Anzlee is a hardworking, determined, and competitive archer,” Hutcherson said. “Coaching her is a joy, and she has natural talent when it comes to archery. It’s not too often to come across archers that are coachable and willing to try difficult things. I expect to see her on the world stage eventually, representing the United States.” Like many successful folks who excel at what they endeavor, Anzlee enters another zone when she engages in archery. “Archery is like an escape from reality,” she says. “Every time I go to shoot it just makes me forget about everything else, archery just makes me so happy every time I get to pick up a bow.” Indeed, that concentration, plus Anzlee’s skill and work ethic, has seen her win over twenty events including 2023 USA Archery Indoor NC State Championship1st place, 2023 USA Archery Indoor NC State Championship1st place, 2023 North Carolina JOAD Indoor State Championship1st place, 2023 North Carolina S3DA Outdoor Middle School Female Open Championship- 1st place, and the 2023 S3DA North Carolina Middle School Open Female Shooter of the Year all in
Anzlee and one of her championship awards. (Photos provided) the last year alone. Anzlee is fortunate to have the solid backing of her parents in her archery career. Her mother, who is a Nurse Practitioner and owner of Rejouvatour Medical Spa in Shelby had this to say about the family connection. “As her mom I have seen the ups and downs that come with this sport from the parents’ perspective but I have also seen the passion, determination, mental fortitude, and love for the sport of archery shine in my daughter,” she said. “Most of all I love seeing the positive relationships this sport
www.shelbyinfo.com
has offered her. She has friends that she communicates with in almost every state and when the athletes get on the range amazing things happen while they all want to win, they also want their fellow archers to compete at their very best. Archers don’t want to win because someone else had a bad day or a bad shot, they want to win because on that day, at that shoot, they were the stronger shooter. We are a 100% archery family. We travel together, eat together, cry together, cheer together, we support each other not just on the range but in life as well. This is one of the greatest blessings in the world of archery.” So, what does the future hold for Anzlee? Archery will likely be a part of it but helping others is also part of the plan. She’s currently taking college prep classes at Pinnacle and is eyeing possible colleges including University of the Cumberland in Williamsburg, Ky., and Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Ky. with the goal of becoming a physical therapist or family doctor. “I would like to work in the healthcare field,” she says. “Archery is in my backup plans.” Just as she did as a young girl, Anzlee still enjoys shooting targets with her father in the backyard, thus bringing her story full circle. “I love it,” her dad says. “When we shoot, we bond.”
Anzlee draws a bead on the bullseye at an indoor shoot.

I’m working on our annual Golf Circle Event and thought about this experience and this article from the past. Hope you enjoy. Hilarious! That’s always the only word that comes to mind when I think of Larry’s first golf experience. He was invited to meet his brotherin-law at a golf course while on vacation. They met at the club and proceeded to pay for the GARY MILLER round when he was met by a gentleman who had a British accent. With nose slightly pointed to the sky, the gentleman kindly let Larry know that he would not be able to wear his tank top while playing. (I’m already laughing) Larry, stunned, (not only because he was an “Amuricun” and a Tennessean), proceeded to let the gentleman know that he would just purchase one of their shirts. After browsing the selection, he quickly realized that his wife would not be pleased if he took his house payment and used it on one shirt. He returned, still sporting his tank top, and told the gentleman that he could not pay so much for a shirt. So, once again, using his nose as an aiming device, he let Larry know that he could rent a shirt. Larry said “great!” and handed the man ten dollars. To which the clerk replied, “Sir, we cannot take cash. We must have a credit card in case you do not return the shirt.” Larry pulled out his credit card (to the surprise of the gentleman) and paid for the rented shirt and then walked around the eighteen-hole golf course, for five hours, with a shirt on that read, “this shirt, property of #### golf club.” (Nah, I actually made up that part about what the shirt said). Now you know why I say hilarious! I don’t want to take us down from the humor of this story too much. It is what it is. And it really has given me a good laugh for the better part of twenty years. But I just couldn’t help but wonder how many times we church folk come across as this British gentleman. First of all, we assume that everybody knows what we do and how we do it. We think they know when to stand up, sit down, and what to do with that little cup and that little white tasteless saltine. But not only do we assume everyone should know, but even worse, we stop people at the door with our unbiblical attendance requirements. Unfortunately, many churches have made it harder to get into their building than into God’s kingdom. But just because this is the case, it doesn’t give us license to neglect it. Just find one that doesn’t do this…. or change yours. Maybe put a sign up that says, “Tank Tops Welcome.” The irony of this story is that Larry’s dad first came to the church I pastored many years ago. He was a cussing sailor. I remember the first Sunday he was there. He sat in the second row – in a tank top. A few months later he became a follower of Jesus. That may not be hilarious but isn’t that amazing!?

The Kings Mountain Historical Museum has planned two exhibitions highlighting black history nationally and within North Carolina. In 1968, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, led by Drs. Martin Luther King Jr. and Ralph David Abernathy declared poverty a national human rights issue. As a response, the organization planned the Poor People's Campaign, a grassroots, multiracial movement that attracted thousands of people to Washington, D.C. For 43 days between May and June 1968, demonstrators demanded social reforms while living side-byside on the National Mall in a tent city known as Resurrection City. This exhibit, called City of Hope, will be at the Kings Mountain Historical Museum at 100 E. Mountain Street from February 20 to June 1. The second exhibition, Oasis Spaces, will run from March 13 to May 11 and will feature what was commonly known as "The Negro Motorist Green Book." Published between 1936 and 1966, this book was both a travel guide

VALENTINE’S DAY • WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14 TH 6 Valentine’s Day traditions own handmade cards. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, sweethearts created unique cards from scratch, according to Country Living. And prior to products produced by Hallmark and other greeting card companies, people used to send one another cards customized with personalized messages. Valentine’s Day is a day of love nestled in the middle of February. Sweethearts use Valentine’s Day as an opportunity to show the people they care about just how deep those feelings run. A 2023 survey from the National Retail Federation found consumers expected to spend $25.9 billion on Valentine’s Day, up from $23.9 billion in 2022. Forecasters suspect spending is likely to increase this year as well. Valentine’s Day is
Pampering gentlemen It is common in North America for Valentine’s Day celebrations to lean significantly toward favoring women, who are often on the receiving end of flowers and chocolates. However, in South Korea and Japan, it is the men who are pampered with such gifts. Women purchase chocolates for their male partners, family members and coworkers as tokens of appreciation and affection. Never fear, a month later on White Day (March 14) men reciprocate with candy,
awash in many different customs. Here’s a deep look at some of those enduring traditions and others that some may feel should be brought back into favor or adopted entirely. Handwritten cards It’s a common scene each year in card retailers and pharmacies: people three-deep in the aisle trying to pick out Valentine’s Day cards in the eleventh hour. People can save themselves the hassle of fighting the crowds if they make their
Bouquets These days a dozen long-stemmed red roses might be the norm for Valentine’s Day gifting. However, roses weren’t always the preferred flower for the holiday. History.com reports that, in the nineteenth century, bouquets might contain all sorts of flowers, each chosen to convey certain messages. Individuals can research the meanings behind certain flowers and put together a Valentine’s Day gift this year that expresses exactly what they are feeling. Puzzle purses Sweethearts in Victorian England created “puzzle purses,” which were a series of love letters that could be read separately, but also fit together to create a design and message. These intricately folded sheets of paper had parts of messages

Celebrating in June? Many Brazilians skip Valentine’s Day in February and choose to celebrate Saint Anthony, the patron saint of marriage and matchmaking, on June 12. Celebrating both is fine for those who prefer to shower affection on loved ones multiple times a year. Valentine’s Day traditions are still strong and can add a little something extra to celebrations this February.
Heart-shaped chocolate boxes British chocolatier Richard Cadbury is credited with creating the first heart-shaped box for Valentine’s Day. The boxes were intended to be so beautiful they would be kept to hold trinkets or love letters. Ornate chocolate boxes are not quite as common today, although the gifting of chocolate for the holiday is still strong.

VALENTINE’S DAY • WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14 TH Treat that special someone to something decadent this Valentinue’s Day
Milk Chocolate Torte with Assam Tea Ganache Serves 6 to 8 8 ounces dark milk chocolate (41% cocoa content) 4 tablespoons Tippy Assam tea leaves (or an Assam of your choice) 1⁄2 cup water 4 ounces sweet butter 4 large eggs, separated 1⁄3 cup all-purpose flour, sifted twice 2 teaspoons malted milk powder
aerosolized spray. Line the bottom with a circle of parchment paper. In a double boiler or a stainless steel bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt the chocolate. In a separate small saucepan, bring the tea leaves, water and butter to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir to melt the butter, allowing the tea leaves to infuse in the water-butter mixture for 3 minutes. Pass through a fine sieve into the chocolate. Stir to blend. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes. Separate the eggs, place the whites into a perfectly clean, fat-free bowl of an electric mixer and the yolks into the chocolate mixture. Beat whites until soft peaks form. Sift flour and malted milk powder together and then fold in egg whites. Fold this flour-malted milk powder mix gently but thoroughly into the chocolate base. Pour into the prepared cake pan and bake for about 35 minutes, or until the cake appears firm, but not dry. This cake is very moist inside and will fall as it cools. Make the ganache.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly coat the bottom and sides of an 8-inch springform or regular cake pan with nonflavored
Assam Ganache 7 ounces heavy cream 2 tablespoons Tippy Assam tea leaves
There aren’t too many days on the calendar when individuals feel like they can indulge in decadent desserts without feeling guilty. But Valentine’s Day allows all the guilt-free indulgences one can handle, making it an ideal time to treat that special someone to a delicious, homemade dessert. This recipe for “Milk Chocolate Torte with Assam Tea Ganache” from “Cooking with Tea” (Periplus) by Robert Wemischner and Diana Rosen makes for a fitting end to a romantic Valentine’s Day dinner.
7 ounces dark milk chocolate, cut into 1⁄2-inch pieces 1 tablespoon unsalted (sweet) butter In a heavy 1-quart saucepan, bring the cream and tea leaves to a boil. Remove from heat and allow to infuse further for 3 minutes. Pass through a fine-meshed sieve into a bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Slowly add the chocolate and gently stir to blend, without aerating. Add the butter and stir until completely melted. Set aside. Assembly: Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or foil. Place the cake on
a cooking rack, then place the rack on the cookie sheet. Pour the ganache over the cake, using a spatula to spread the ganache evenly as needed. Allow to set. Scrape up any ganache that drips off the cake and pour to cover the cake a second time. (Reheat slightly over a pot of simmering water, if necessary, to loosen the mixture.) Cool at EVERY MEMORABLE MOMENT room temperature.

In the world of colors, red stands out with its vibrant and energetic presence. DANYALE From fiery sunsets to PATTERSON blooming roses, red captures our attention and stirs our emotions. It has been my favorite color for years, often associated with emotions, like love, passion, and desire. Not only do I think of a heart, when I see the color red, but I also ponder on the intense love of God. John 3:16 (ESV) “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” Real Love The love of God is unconditional, eternal, and all-encompassing. It is a love that transcends human understanding and is not based on anything we do or don’t do. God’s love is present in all our lives, providing comfort, guidance, and support. It is a love that forgives, heals, and offers hope. We can find solace and
strength in knowing God’s love. Zephaniah 3:17 (AMP) “The LORD your God is in your midst, A Warrior who saves. He will rejoice over you with joy; He will be quiet in His love [making no mention of your past sins], He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.” God’s Love On Fire Another significant aspect of red in the Bible is its association with fire. Fire is often seen as a purifying force, refining and consuming impurities. In Acts 2:3-4, during the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples like “tongues of fire.” This image represents the passionate love of God, igniting their hearts and empowering them to share the Gospel boldly. Moreover, fire symbolizes the divine presence of God Himself. Hebrews 12:29 (ESV) boldly proclaims, “For our God is a consuming fire.” Just as fire both purifies and consumes, God’s love is all-consuming, bringing healing, restoration, and renewal to our lives. PRAY THIS PRAYER: Father, your love for me is amazing. I praise you because you are a merciful God, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love. I give thanks to the God of heaven for
