Rotary installs new officers

By nORMa B. dennIs FreeLANCe WrIter ndworddesign@gmail.com

Continuing their mission to serve the community, members of the Jamestown Rotary Club held an installation banquet for newlyelected officers of the organization on June 27 at the Jamestown Park clubhouse.

Joanne Iwan, assistant district governor for Rotary District 7690 and a member of High Point Rotary Club, presided over the installation. Included were Jerry Brett, president; Bob Callicutt, president elect; Michael Greth, public image/ marketing; and Bob Stokely, board member. Don Dale, immediate past president, who handed over the gavel to Brett, will also serve on the board of directors.

New officers not present due to other commitments were Geoff Swan, secretary, and Ken Reed, treasurer and membership chair.

In addition to Iwan, special guests included several spouses of members and David McCoy,

a member of High Point Rotary Club and past district governor of Rotary District 7690. McCoy noted that Jamestown was important to Rotary and the Rotary Club was important to Jamestown.

Each of the new officers has a strong desire to not only give back to the community in which they work or live, but to support the organization that allows them to do so.

LUTHERAN CHURCH HOSTS YARD SALE TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY MINISTRIES

Lutheran Church of Our Father (LCOF) has a heart for the community. A food pantry that serves over 400 each month, clothing donations, ‘soles for souls’, 12-step programs, supporting local schools and more are at the core of the church’s ministries.

“We take seriously the mission statement, ‘God’s work – our hands,’” said Pastor Scott Berry. “We live out our Christian beliefs through our actions.”

During Covid, members of LCOF realized that many had treasures in their homes they were willing to part with, the sale of which could help finance some of the church ministries. These treasures will be for sale July 15, from 7 a.m.-12 p.m. at the church, 3304 Groometown Road, Greensboro. Special savings will start at 11:30 a.m. In case of rain the sale will be held indoors.

In addition to the church members’ treasures, other people may reserve a spot for $20 to sell their own goods. There will also be breakfast foods for sale, a hot dog lunch, and a bake sale.

To specifically support the food pantry, a Blackstone gas griddle grill with many accessories will be raffled. Tickets are $5 each, or five tickets for $20. The drawing will be held at 12:30 p.m. on July 15. The winner does not need to be present.

FOOD LION FEEDS CHARITABLE FOUNDATION DONATES TO CITYSERVE OF THE TRIAD

CityServe of the Triad has received $2,000 from the Food Lion Feeds Charitable Foundation to help feed neighbors in their time of need. CityServe of the Triad will use the gift to buy non-perishable canned goods for its community.

This was truly an answer to prayer,” said Dr. Paula Bost, CityServe of the Triad’s executive director. “It has truly been a challenge to stock our shelves with non-perishable goods for the community and for other churches we also resource to serve their communities.

“At CityServe of the Triad, we firmly believe that together we can make a difference. Our community outreach programs are designed to address the most pressing needs of individuals and families in our community, empowering them to lead fulfilling lives and fostering a sense of belonging and hope.”

The Food Lion Feeds Charitable Foundation is committed to supporting families facing food insecurity across its 10-state footprint. Established in 2001, the foundation provides financial support for programs and organizations dedicated to feeding local neighbors in the communities it serves. Since its inception, the foundation has awarded more than $17.8 million in grants.

It helps nourish communities with fresh food for backpack programs, Kids Café’s, and other hungerrelief programs as well as funding for long-term programs to help shorten the lines at food banks. It partners with Feeding America, the nation’s largest hunger-relief agency, in addition to local food agencies serving the 10 Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic states in which Food Lion operates.

“Since I am retired, I have the time to help and to give,” Greth said.

“I think members willing to participate make the group stronger,” Stokely added.

nizations in general and Rotary specifically. But several have been involved with Rotary at various locations where they have lived.

Rotary has served participants with an opportunity to network with their business and meet others with similar interests, as well as provided an outlet for charitable work.

“I have made some really good friends in Rotary,” Dale said, “and as a charitable organization, Jamestown Rotary is very generous.”

“We raise thousands of dollars which help numerous charities in the community,” said Callicutt, one of the newest members of Jamestown Rotary. “The club does not just do projects, it does wonderful projects.”

Brett says the group’s success comes from dedicated members and officers.

The first Rotary club was founded in Chicago in 1905 and its members are called Rotarians. Their motto is “Service Above Self” and they work together to solve community problems, provide humanitarian aid, and promote goodwill and peace. They are committed to ethical practices in business and personal behavior using a four-way test to gauge thoughts, speech, or actions: “Is it the truth?” “Is it fair to all concerned?” “Will it build goodwill and better friendships?”

“Will it be beneficial to all concerned?”

Quakers honor Black burial ground

By CaROL BROOKs FreeLANCe WrIter cab1hp@gmail.com

They knew it was there and knew some history, but they did not know how many bodies were buried.

But after a local preservationist noticed many depressions in what appeared to be an open area of Deep River Friends Meeting Cemetery, members learned that the area contained over 150 previously unknown and unmarked graves.

Meeting records are very detailed but there was nothing about these particular graves. That is because these souls had black bodies.

“We always knew there was a colored section,” said Barbara Bell, a member of Deep River Friends. “We imagined 40-50 graves.”

But while preservationist Shawn Rogers was cleaning headstones in the cemetery, he saw the depressions and thought there might be more buried in the cemetery than was thought. He probed with rods and found many spots he believed to be burials and marked each of them with a flag. When he mentioned

Black cemeteries often disappear

By CaROL BROOKs FreeLANCe WrIter cab1hp@gmail.com

The recent finding of 147 African American graves in Deep River Friends Meeting cemetery raises several questions, including: “Why were they outside the White graveyard?”

“Who is buried there?”

That second question is the hardest to answer because there is little documentation available. The lack of documentation also means descendants cannot visit the graves of loved ones who have passed, nor can they help in keeping up the cemeteries.

While many cemeteries for Whites are maintained, many, like those of Blacks, have become covered with grass, brambles and even trees, with markers sinking below ground or being removed. Many were in remote areas of plantations. These days, many cemeteries, both Black and

White, are only discovered when a developer comes in and bulldozes the ground, unearthing graves.

Chris Nolan, whose hobby is finding and documenting hidden graves, has found over 100 cemeteries. She volunteers with the Florida Public Archaeology Network.

“It’s just not right. Color, ethnic status, religion and politics should not dictate the total disappearance of a resting place of so many,” she said in an article titled “How African American Cemeteries Are Lost, Found, and Protected.” “I want to help make sure the sites still out there are recorded, tracked, and do not disappear.”

“Cemeteries are hallowed ground to descendant communities and can reveal details about historical events, settlement patterns and the demographic makeup of communities,” according to the same article.” The need to save African American cem-

eteries across the nation is urgent, especially as climate change, natural disasters and urban development intensify.”

Black people could be buried outside the cemetery grounds, as was the case at Deep River, appeasing family members who wanted a Christian burial. Like others, Blacks were buried with their head to the west, originally a Jewish tradition so the body would face Israel. The sun rises in the east as will Christ in the second coming.

Some bodies, however, face in other directions.

Racial restrictions were in place at the majority of public cemeteries in the United States until the 1950s. Cemeteries did not qualify for civil rights protection. Even if a cemetery was integrated, different races were buried in separate parts of the cem-

his findings to Bell, who is a member of the Deep River Memorial Association, she agreed something needed to be done to recognize these persons.

Rogers, who is the director of Mendenhall Homeplace in Jamestown, then contacted a geologist, Keith Seramur, who used groundpenetrating radar (GPR) over the presumably open area. Seramur discovered 147 graves to go along with the 13 marked ones. Rogers then marked each with numbered stainless steel markers.

“I was totally surprised there were that many,” Bell said. “I was totally unsuspecting there were that many graves.”

She remembers growing up and wondering why that part of the cemetery was not as well-tended as the rest. Her mother, Florence Allen, told her it was the Colored section.

Bell grew up at the meeting and remembers the older members talking about the Black cemetery, but as these members passed away or moved, she said people just stopped talking about it. Over time, weeds and brambles grew over the graves, which were surrounded by a fence. Records show the fence came down in 1948, making it easier to keep up the area.

Rogers has found in Quaker Monthly Meeting minutes that burials were done as far back as at least the 1870s.

“That’s the thing,” he said. “We

don’t know how old this thing is. Could be Civil War or earlier.”

Recognition

To recognize the Black cemetery, Deep River Friends Meeting held a dedication ceremony on June 25 for an interpretive display depicting what they are calling the African American Burial Ground. The ceremony was very well attended, with a majority of the audience being Black and descendants of those known to be buried in the cemetery. Blacks and Whites in attendance joined together in singing Blessed Assurance, which has the line, “this is my story, this is my song.”

“In many cases, this is all that marks the existence of these people’s lives,” Rogers said at the ceremony, quoting his grandfather. “These people lived just like us. They had fears, conflict, dealt with hate, met with strife and struggle. They loved. They had families. It broke my heart to think these people had lived their whole lives yet nobody knows anything about them.

“That’s why we do this.”

History

The Deep River Friends are Quakers. The Meeting began in 1753 and organized as a Monthly Meeting in 1778. In the 1800s, they were seen as friends to Blacks seeking refuge.

state enforcement of racially restrictive covenants in land deeds violated the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment. This had a major impact on the ability of blacks to buy houses in white neighborhoods, but it also affected the de-segregation of cemeteries. Whites-only restrictions on cemetery plots could no longer hold up in court.

Saving African American cemeteries

A movement to identify and protect African American cemeteries has been steadily growing for decades in the United Sates and North Carolina is one of the states where this is happening.

North Carolina Congresswoman Alma Adams (D-NC-12) and two House representatives, A. Donald McEachin (D-VA04), and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA-01), introduced the bipartisan African American Burial Grounds Preservation Act in the U.S. House of Representatives last year. The African American Burial Grounds Preservation Act, would establish a program at the National Park Service to provide grant opportunities and technical assistance to local partners to research,

However, even then, segregation reared its head and Blacks could not be buried in Christian churchyards. They could, however, be buried just outside the cemetery grounds. At the time Black burials began at Deep River, they were outside the cemetery grounds but have since become surrounded on three sides by a columbarium and burials of White people. Bell believes there are Blacks buried around the New Garden Friends Cemetery. Other religions also restricted burials. A few above-ground headstones

identify, survey and preserve these historic sites.

“Graveyards, burial grounds and cemeteries not only honor our ancestors, they’re also an important resource for historians and genealogists who want to tell our history,” said Adams. “However, the burial sites of African Americans are often forgotten or ignored. This dishonors the memories of those who came before us and obscures our nation’s history. The protection of these burial grounds is long overdue and critical to ensuring a more complete, comprehensive understanding of America’s history.”

As of this writing, the bill has not passed.

Since historic Black cemeteries are not wellprotected by law, local communities continue to rely on volunteer efforts to honor their ancestors’ resting places. Deep River Friends Memorial Association is one of these groups.

Technology, such as ground-penetrating radar (used at Deep River Friends), Global Positioning System (GPS) and software help track and manage data. Even old-fashioned dowsing rods can tell sex and if the grave contains a child.

remain but most of the stones are gone or have sunk below ground level. This makes it hard to learn who is buried in the cemetery.

At the ceremony, Ruby Sapp

Leach read the names of those known buried at Deep River Cemetery, descendants in the audience stood and by the time she had finished, over half of the audience had stood. Family names included Cole, Pettiford, Lomax, Raper, Jackson, Ashe, Lindsay, Farrell, White, Charles, and Joyner. Lucy Hedrick’s descendants far outnumbered the others. Leach’s husband was Hedrick’s grandson.

The names came from death records and family histories.

“We extend thanks and gratitude to all of those involved in helping to restore and preserve our ancestors’ history,” Leach said.

One of those buried in a marked grave is Thomas Pettiford (18231890), a Black man who built the current Deep River Friends Meeting House in 1875. The new sign says “His involvement … was a source of great controversy at the time, since he was black. Thomas was held in high esteem by the members of the meeting and was offered membership sometime in the 1880s. “

The future

Even though the cost of finding the graves was expensive, Bell

“Our club tends to stick with local and state projects, but there is the opportunity for those who want to travel and do international projects,” Brett said.

Rotary members have always been expected to attend weekly club meetings, pay annual dues, and participate in activities and projects, but Brett says the organization now has different levels of membership.

Increasing membership is one of the goals of each new Jamestown Rotary Club officer. They also plan to restate the club’s constitution and bylaws, which have been misplaced over the years, and increase the group’s public image and awareness through an updated website and Facebook page.

As the Jamestown Rotary Club prepares to celebrate 70 years of service to the Jamestown community, Callicutt’s hope for the group’s future is that it lasts another 70 years.

“Somebody, either at Deep River or the Black community, had to oversee where people were being buried,” she said. “You can’t just go out and dig a hole and hope no [other] body is there.

“If we don’t do it now, it will all be lost,” Rogers said. Several versions of the same quote sum it up well: “As long as there is one person on earth who remembers you, you’re not forgotten.”

“We’re hoping this will inspire others,” Bell said.

“One of the greatest things to come from this project is the connections that we’re making with families from historically Black communities, like Florence and Raleigh’s Crossroads,” Rogers said. “They’re coming together, they’re searching their memories, they’re searching the records and the memories of some of the older folks in their families to try and solve this mystery.

“We’re not finished here. There’s a lot to be learned.”

“We’ll keep adding to these names as we learn more,” Bell said. She hopes the names will eventually be added to the meeting’s website. Some names are already on the website in the cemetery database for Section B.

Former Greensboro endodontist and wife fund endowed professorship aimed at attracting, keeping dental faculty

Guilford Technical Community College announced today the establishment of the Dr. Stuart and Mrs. Carol Fountain Endowed Professorship to be awarded annually to a faculty member in the health sciences division, preferably to a faculty member in dental sciences.

The endowment was made possible through the donation of $200,000 by the Fountains, longtime supporters of GTCC. Dr. Fountain is a retired endodontist who served on GTCC’s board of trustees from 1981 to 2001 and was chairman five of those years.

The Fountains, who have funded a dental assisting scholarship at GTCC since 2004, said they were driven to establish the new faculty endowment to help assure that GTCC maintains the ability to draw the best possible educators to the dental program.

“I’m very concerned about the looming divide between private practice and teaching and whether or not the Guilford Tech dental program can continue to attract faculty given the competition between private practice and teaching,” said Dr. Fountain.

“We tried to create a forum that would supplement dental faculty income to encourage people not only to come to teach but continue to teach. That is our primary incentive with this.”

“We both know what it’s like to start at the beginning and work our way up,” said Carol Fountain. “Despite the fact that we came from middle class families, they weren’t always middle class. We’re trying to help folks.”

The amount of the annual

award will be between $8,000 and $10,000. It may be used as a signing bonus for new faculty candidates or supplemental salary for existing faculty members.

“The Fountains have been valued members of the GTCC community for decades and have been tremendous supporters of the college,” said Anthony Clarke, Ph.D., president of GTCC. “They have a great understanding of the value and importance of the college to the community and this generous endowment emphasizes that understanding.

“We will be able to use this annual award to not only help attract the best possible teaching candidates, but also help maintain our present staff. We are thankful for the Fountains and appreciate their dedication to the college greatly.”

Dr. Fountain was a practicing endodontist in Greensboro for 40 years until his retirement in 2015. He served as president of Foun-

tain, Olmsted, Torney, Mohorn, and Mohorn, an endodontic practice with offices in Greensboro, High Point, and Asheboro. He is a graduate of Davidson College, the UNC Adams School of Dentistry in Chapel Hill, and the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. He is a former full time faculty member of the UNC Adams School of Dentistry.

Dr. Fountain is the former president of the Guilford County Dental Society and the North Carolina Dental Society and served as the vice president of the American Dental Association. In addition, he served on the North Carolina State Board of Community Colleges from 2001-2015.

Carol Fountain is a graduate of Guilford College and earned a Masters in chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and served on the Guilford County School Board. The Fountains have three grown children.

Gold medal finishers include, Lauren Lewis, collision damage appraisal; Abigail Davis and Ana Dominguez-Arias combined to capture first place in the EMT team event; and Jesus Gonzalez-Pineda, major appliance service and repair.

evaluating a car for the collision damage appraisal category.

“GTCC had a banner year for SkillsUSA with seven national medal winners,” said Jeff Faircloth, department chair, transportation, and the SkillsUSA chapter advisor at GTCC. “This is the best results GTCC has ever had and is a result of many hours of hard work put in by students and their advisors, as well as a testament to the outstanding training programs offered at GTCC.”

SkillsUSA is a national nonprofit organization serving teachers, middle school, high school, and college students who are preparing for careers in trade, technical, and skilled service occupations. Through its local, state, and national competitions, students demonstrate occupational and leadership skills.

“Winning first place the Collison Damage Appraisal National SkillsUSA competition for college and post-secondary students

has solidified my confidence in myself and ignited ambition that was lost for most of my life,” said Lauren Lewis, GTCC student and first-place finisher. “By placing first, I recognized that my decision to change careers was the correct choice to attain true happiness. I’ve never been so passionate or worked so tirelessly for anything else in my life.”

The film then walks viewers through Houston’s greatest moments during the 1980s and 1990s, including her performance of the National Anthem at Super Bowl XXV as well as her roles in films such as “The Bodyguard.” Even though the film digs deeper into her more personal relationships with notorious bad

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Continue to build your self-confidence by tak-

boy Bobby Brown and close friend/lover Robyn Crawford, the screenplay itself comes across a bit generic and surface-level. Ackie, and other cast members like Ashton Sanders and Stanley Tucci, do their best to make the script come to life.

80 for Brady (PG-13) —

Four elderly best friends — Lou, Trish, Maura and Betty — are die-hard fans of the New England Patriots football team, specifically Tom Brady, the team’s quarterback. While making plans

to watch Super Bowl LI, Lou throws around the idea of watching the game inperson. When Lou announces that they won tickets from a radio show giveaway, the foursome make plans to travel to Houston to watch their dream team play, but they soon lose the tickets, forcing them to find another way inside. Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno and Sally Field star in this playful comedy, with Brady, of course, making a few appearances. Premieres July 4. (Amazon Prime Video)

Reality Check (NR) —

Three years after his last comedy special that took place in the living room of his Los Angeles home,

Kevin Hart is back with a new special — this time with material from his “Reality Check” tour, which he embarked on late last year. In this special, Hart focuses on topics similarly covered in his past specials, like his family life and fame, but he claims to be even more unfiltered than he’s been before. With no short supply of curse words or crude jokes, Hart takes the stage with a bat in hand, just in case he needs to “knock someone’s head off.” (Somewhere in the distance, you can hear Chris Rock quietly taking notes.) Reality Check premieres July 6, on the comedian’s 44th birthday. (Peacock)

Now Here's A Tip

By JOann deRsOn

• They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but in today’s digital age, storing and displaying our treasure trove of images can take some craft work. For a lovely, cheap display, find frames of varying designs in secondhand stores. Remove the glass and lay them out on newspaper. Spray-paint them all the same color and, when dry, frame and hang your favorites in a very cohesive grouping!

• “When on vacation, it’s really easy to take hundreds of pictures, but when you upload them to the computer, it’s hard to find the gems in the mass of files. Spend some time each day reviewing the pictures on your camera, and delete the redundant ones and pics that are obviously not keepers.” — E.L. in Illinois

• “When my sisters and I get together (there are five of us), we each bring a flash drive with about 50 good, recent family pictures. One sister is a technical whiz, and she put all the pictures together and loads them back on the flash drives, labeled with the date. And then we all watch a picture slideshow together and share our stories.” — G.B. in Georgia

• Save your favorite family photos to a disk and give a copy to a trusted friend. That way, if anything should happen to your computer/home/etc., you’ll still have those pictures.

• “My mother-in-law has a digital photo frame, and about every six months we send her a new flash drive to plug into the back of it. She does not have a computer, so she enjoys the picture show and can go back to the old pictures as well whenever she wants just by plugging a different drive into the frame. What a great way to share photos with a different generation.” — A.T. in Missouri

“Oops! I totally forgot about dinner!” It happens. Maybe you didn’t actually forget about dinner, but your hectic, nonstop day happened. Suddenly it’s 6 p.m. and the family is looking to you because they’re starving. What’s for dinner?

There are so many reasons to draw a blank at dinnertime. Sometimes plans go awry. Someone accidentally unplugged the crockpot, the chicken didn’t defrost, you didn’t make it to the store, or you set out the dinner ingredients and the kids ate half. I feel your pain, because I’ve been there! Honestly, between work, school, homework, activities and running a household, it’s a wonder our families get fed at all.

Before you call for pizza or head to the drive-thru, stop! You have a backup plan because you’re reading this column right now. Welcome to the SOS meal. As in “calling out an SOS — Save Our Supper!” Or sanity, you decide. An SOS meal is a planned set of economical ingredients that you always keep in your pantry, intended to guarantee a nearly effortless, healthy, inexpensive dinner that practically makes itself.

Here’s a list of nonperishable pantry staples to keep on hand to make dinner in a flash. Canned beans (such as black beans, chickpeas or kidney beans), canned tomatoes (diced, crushed or sauce), canned vegetables (corn, peas or green beans), pasta (varieties like spaghetti, penne or macaroni), rice (white, brown or basmati), canned tuna or salmon, chicken or vegetable broth, jarred sauces (marinara, pesto or curry paste).

Here is a recipe for dinner that takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and has your family sitting down to dinner in under 30 minutes. It takes longer than that to go through the drive-thru at McKentucky Junior King.

LINGUINE WITH GARLIC LEMON TUNA

The most time-consuming variable of this recipe is boiling the water for the pasta. Using better quality tuna improves this dish, but use what you have on hand. If you happen to have a fresh lemon lying around, use it, but bottled juice is absolutely fine.

Yield: 4 servings

Total time: 25 minutes

8 to 12 ounces linguine or other pasta

3 tablespoons olive oil

3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

2 (5 ounce) cans tuna, drained

1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

2 tablespoons lemon juice, plus zest if using

fresh lemon

Salt & pepper to taste

2 tablespoons capers

2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

Starting with hot tap water, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Assemble the ingredients, then start opening and draining the cans of tuna and beans. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package directions.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tuna, beans, lemon juice and zest, salt and pepper. Gently stir and heat through. By now your pasta should be about ready. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta and immediately add to sauce in the skillet. Add the capers and 1 tablespoon of the chopped parsley and toss until the spaghetti is well coated. Add the reserved pasta water as needed to thin out the sauce. Serve warm, garnished with remaining parsley, and pass the pepper mill.

The most important takeaway (so you don’t pay for takeout) is to have a plan before you need one. By the way, quick pantry recipes also work when you just don’t feel like cooking so you can get out of the kitchen and move on with your life!
