Jamestown receives half-million dollars for funding for park

Perhaps it was the catchy project title or maybe it was the presentation. Whatever the reason, on Aug. 23, N.C. Gov. Roy Cooper awarded the Town a $500,000 grant to construct bathrooms at Jamestown Park.

“Nature’s Call: A Park Restroom Revamp” was one of 20 municipalities in the state to receive the top amount from the Parks and Recreation Trust Fund and the Accessible Parks Grant. A total of $17,928,220 was awarded statewide to 46 projects. The only other Guilford County municipality selected was Sedalia, which received $343,762 for a town park.

“These awards through the Parks and Recreation Trust Fund and the Accessible Parks Grant will bring tremendous

impact to communities across North Carolina by providing more parks, more trails and more accessible recreation,” said the governor.

“This significant investment will ensure that everyone can enjoy our park facilities comfortably and inclusively,” reads a recent Facebook post by the Town. “[Thanks to] the Town Council’s leadership and the hard work of the town staff, these improvements will come at no cost to taxpayers. This grant is part of approximately $4.6 million in grants funding awarded to the Town in the last 18 months.”

Local governments across North Carolina applied to PARTF to fund land acquisition, and development and renovation of public park and recreation areas. Every year, the Parks and Recreation Authority allocates 30 percent of PARTF’s total funding to municipalities and counties. A

maximum of $500,000 can be awarded to a single project, and the municipalities must match funds at least dollar-fordollar for the grant amount.

A separate source of funding, the Accessible Parks Grant program, was appropriated $12.5 million in the 2023 budget to provide matching grants for local parks and recreation projects to benefit people living with disabilities. The program allows for either the construction of special facilities or the adaptation of existing facilities to meet the unique needs of persons living with disabilities, enabling them to participate in recreational and sporting activities, regardless of their abilities. The grant is administered through PARTF and the Parks and Recreation Authority selected the recipients.

“North Carolinians love their parks and recreation areas,” said N.C. Depart-

ment of Natural and Cultural Resources Secretary D. Reid Wilson. “These projects will enhance quality of life, improve health, and strengthen local economies.” PARTF is administered through the North Carolina Division of Parks and Recreation.

“Over the last 30 years, PARTF has provided more than $800 million in improved state parks, local parks and coastal access,” said State Parks Director Brian Strong. “These awards continue a wonderful year celebrating the impact of PARTF on North Carolina residents. We look forward to new and updated parks, facilities, and trails in the coming years from this year’s grantees.”

A second round of funding for the Accessible Parks Grant will open this month. Over $4 million in funding will be available.

It is not too early to plan

Built in 1915, for years the large brick building at the corner of Main Street and Ragsdale Road served the educational needs of students in a large section of Guilford County. Once scheduled for demolition, a grassroots effort not only saved the building but transformed it into a public library and educational archives serving the entire community.

Since the library opened in 1988, the same effort that saved the building has been dedicated to its upkeep. What originated as a hotdog supper fundraiser to help support continuing needed repairs has evolved into a barbecue meal complete with that Southern favorite and musical entertainment to highlight the late afternoon activity.

“It will be held rain or shine,” said Nancy Waller Lowry, Ragsdale High School class of ’66.

This year’s event, sponsored by the Old Jamestown School Association, Jamestown Alumni Association and Friends of the Library, will be held Oct. 5 in front of the Jamestown Public Library. Food will be served from 4 to 6 p.m. but The Pink Panthers will entertain from 3 to 6 p.m. with their special blend of beach music.

This is the fourth appearance The Pink Panthers have made at the Old School Barbecue. The group consists of former Ragsdale High School students Steve Neal, Eddie Rider, Roger Sink, Jimmy Miller, Steve Carter and Jay Smith, who began playing together in the mid 1990s. Country Barbeque on W. Wendover Avenue in Greensboro will cater the meal. For a donation, Friends of the Jamestown Library will have a variety

of desserts, which are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. Members of several Guilford Technical Community College student clubs will be assisting at the barbecue.

Gift baskets created by Friends of the Library will be available for sale and the Jamestown Business Association is sponsoring a silent auction to support the library.

NCDEQ extends comments period for wastewater permit

Did you miss the deadline earlier this year to submit comments to the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) regarding the Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority revised wastewater permit for the John F. Kime Water Treatment Plant in Randolph County? If so, you have until Sept. 30 to comment in the second round. In the spring, the first round of comments resulted in many revisions to the draft plan, including a maximum wastewater or sewage discharge limitation to Randleman Lake of 1.31 million gallons per day (MGD). Effluent — liquid waste or

sewage discharged into a river or sea – can include liquid factory waste, smoke and raw sewage. Effluent is sewage that has been treated in a septic tank or sewage treatment plant. It is also referred to as “trade effluent” or “wastewater.” Effluent is waste other than waste from kitchens or toilets, surface water or domestic sewage. Much of this waste contains per- and poly- fluoroalkyl chemicals known as PFAS or forever chemicals.

PTRWA provides water to Jamestown, High Point, Greensboro, Archdale, Randleman, and Randolph County.

The earlier public comment period elicited so many replies that all could not be reviewed or implemented in the assigned time period.

Some changes appear in

the new draft permit, including monitoring for bromide, chloroform, sulfate, quinoline, strontium and vanadium.

“Following the 30-day public comment period, the Division will review all pertinent comments and take appropriate action prior to issuing a final permit,” said Sara Bassett, Environmental Specialist I, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Compliance and Expedited Permitting. The NPDES permit program addresses water pollution by regulating point sources that discharge pollutants to waters of the United States.

Created in 1972 by the Clean Water Act, the NPDES permit program is authorized to state governments by EPA to perform many permitting, administrative, and enforcement aspects of the program. The additional comment period is just what many Jamestown residents had wanted. PFAS, especially since the NCDEQ renewed the town’s stormwater permit July 1. This permit was several years past its expiration date. A local environmental group said many of the public comments made at the time were not addressed before the renewal. Once all comments are received, reviewed and revisions made to the current permit, it will become effective and expire midnight Dec. 31, 2029. During that time period, the Kime Water Treatment Plant is required to monitor the wastewater weekly, quarterly or continuously, depending on the type.

From The Front

Businessman turns experience into new career

The saying, “Necessity is the mother of invention,” seems to ring true for Patrick McGill. When he could not find a travel agency to meet his needs, he created one.

“In 2017, I wanted to go to England and see the British Formula 1 Grand Prix,” McGill said. “I had four referrals for travel agents, three didn’t return my call. I visited the fourth and said I did not want a tour, but wanted to base in London and take daytrips — one of them would be to the race. The first thing this agent pulled out was a catalog of tours. The very thing I said I did not want.” McGill was no novice to travel. During his lifetime, he had lived, worked and traveled extensively through Europe and the United Kingdom. He worked almost exclusively with international companies, and at one point was spending one week out of every month in Germany.

“In the later years of my career, I would often be the only American

in an international meeting,” he said. “I was nearing a stage in my life where I was ready to make a change. Seeing a need, and with my extensive travel experience, I decided to retire from my career and become a travel advisor and agent.”

In late 2018, he began Patrick McGill Travel, LLC, and turned it into a full-time business in March 2022. He works with clients seeking a personal travel experience, focusing on Europe and the United Kingdom. Travel arrangements can include escorted tours, river cruises, ocean cruises, or customized independent travel.

“I handle all aspects of the trip including flights, hotel accommodations, guides, tours and excursions, and transportation,” McGill said.

McGill believes people travel to Europe to make some kind of connection — whether it is to art/architecture, ancestry, faith, history, or even to the land and communities. When working with clients, he takes their reason for travel into consideration as well as their level of travel experience and any

other special concerns that must be considered. He also draws on an extensive network of resources throughout Europe and the UK to help create the perfect trip for them.

“Between my personal travel experience and the expert knowledge of my network connections, I can create the travel experience that best fits the needs and interests of any client,” McGill said.

Patrick McGill is a member of

Travel Leaders and recently joined the Jamestown Business Association. His business is located at 3007 Lodge Drive in Jamestown. Hours are 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday through Friday by appointment only, either in person or by video conference.

Leuchtenburg’s 102nd birthday Gift to Us

UNC-Chapel

Hill Professor Emeritus William Leuchtenburg is celebrating his 102nd birthday this month. He was born on September 28, 1922.

A few weeks ago, Oxford University Press released his latest book, “Patriot Presidents: From George Washington to John Quincy Adams.”

Leuchtenburg earned his BA from Cornell and his PhD in History in 1951 from Columbia, where he taught before joining the history department at UNC-Chapel Hill in 1982.

According to the department, Leuchtenburg became a leading scholar of 20th century U.S. history and the American presidency and

the preeminent expert on FDR, writing profoundly influential books including “The Perils of Prosperity, 191432” (1958).

His “Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal, 1932-1940” (1963) won the prestigious Bancroft Prize and the Francis Parkman Prize. Sixty years later, it remains the best single volume treatment of the subject.

His later publications have constantly enhanced his historical influence and stature. These works include “In the Shadow of FDR: From Harry Truman to Ronald Reagan” (updated and subtitled From Harry Truman to Barack Obama, 2009); “The Supreme Court Reborn: The Constitutional Revolution in the Age of Roosevelt” (1996); “The FDR Years: On Roosevelt and His Legacy (1997); The White House Looks South: Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, Lyndon B. Johnson” (2005); and “The American President: From Teddy Roosevelt to Bill Clinton (2015).” In his latest book, “Patriot Presidents,” Leuchtenburg, with the help of his spouse, editor and writing partner, Jean Anne Leuchtenburg, sets out to narrate and explain the record of the first six presidents, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, and John Quincy Adams,

our founding fathers.

The book’s opening chapter on the Constitutional Convention of 1787 analyzes how the founding fathers created a unique institution, the presidency. They were determined to authorize an effective chief executive but cautious of monarchy. The presidency that developed over the next generation was fashioned less by the clauses in the Constitution than by the way that the first presidents responded to challenges.

Chapter 1. “The Constitutional Convention of 1787: Framing the Presidency” explains why James Madison is called the father of the Constitution and answers the question of why the convention made the critical move in taking the choice of the president from Congress and vesting it in an electoral college.

Chapter 2. “George Washington: Launching the Presidency” focuses on George Washington, who recognized that the American president is simultaneously the head of state and the chief executive. It also considers the emergence of political parties, the Republican and the Federalist, despite widespread hostility to factions.

Chapter 3. “John Adams: Preserving the Republic in Wartime.” Although Adams had to cope with war hysteria, he won the hearts of peace-loving Americans by opposing the efforts of Federalists in Congress to create a provisional army.

The chapter then elaborates on the last moments of Adams’s regime, when he reflected that neither he nor the country had a party, unlike Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton.

Chapter 4. “Thomas Jefferson: Limiting the Government while Creating an Empire” shows how Jefferson’s presidency expanded civil liberties, notably freedom of speech and freedom of worship. The chapter expounds on how Jefferson undid the seamiest transactions of the Adams presidency and altered the style of the national government by replacing the rococo excess of the Federalists with Doric simplicity.

Chapter 5. “James Madison: Leading the Nation through the Perilous War of 1812.” Leuchtenburg explains how James Madison led the nation into and through the War of 1812. Madison took power at a time of a weakened presidency, but English and French depredations on U.S. commerce moved him to exert

bold leadership. In the ensuing war, the United States suffered numerous setbacks, including the burning of the nation’s capital, and the war ended as a stalemate, but Americans chose to view it as a triumph, especially after Andrew Jackson’s success in New Orleans.

Chapter 6. “James Monroe: Enunciating a Doctrine for the Ages.” Even though Monroe was scrupulously respectful of the curbs on executive powers mandated by the Constitution, he made a considerable impression on the institution of the American presidency. He made his greatest mark in foreign affairs by enunciating the Monroe Doctrine.

Chapter 7 “John Quincy Adams: Advocating Activist Government.” Unlike predecessors who quailed at the assertion of federal authority that lacked clear constitutional sanction, Adams boldly declared that liberty is power, and advocated an ambitious program of internal improvements. The Adams program, in fact, was the forerunner of later initiatives such as the Square Deal, the New Deal, the Great Society, and Bidenomics. A reader of Leuchtenburg’s remarkable book will ask, what in the world is this 102-year-oldman going to do next?

D.G. Martin, a retired lawyer, served as UNC-System’s vice president for public affairs and hosted PBS-NC’s North Carolina Bookwatch.

In the heart of Appalachia, where the rolling hills are as steeped in tradition as they are in natural beauty, one humble culinary creation reigns supreme: the pepperoni roll.

Originating in the early 20th century, this beloved snack was born out of necessity in West Virginia’s coal mining communities. Italian immigrants, many of whom worked in the mines, ingeniously combined their culi-

nary heritage with locally available ingredients to create a portable, hearty meal. By wrapping spicy pepperoni slices in soft, yeasty dough, they crafted a convenient snack that didn’t require refrigeration and could easily be held in one hand — a perfect solution for miners working long hours underground.

The genius of the pepperoni roll lies in its simplicity.

The dough, soft and pillowy, bakes around the pepperoni, which releases its flavorful oils into the bread as it

cooks. The result is slightly spicy, savory and perfectly satisfying. It’s no wonder this snack quickly became a staple in homes and bakeries across West Virginia.

Today, pepperoni rolls are celebrated not only for their comforting flavors but also for their rich history. They’re a cherished symbol of Appalachian culture, served at family gatherings, sold at local bakeries and enjoyed by people from all walks of life.

But pepperoni rolls aren’t just about nostalgia — they’re incredibly versatile, making them the perfect snack for today’s busy lifestyles. As families prepare for the back-to-school rush, pepperoni rolls offer a quick and easy option for afterschool snacks or to pack in lunchboxes. Their portability makes them ideal for kids on the go, whether they’re heading to soccer practice or dance class.

For adults, pepperoni rolls are a great grab-and-go snack for busy workdays, and they’re a hit at tailgate parties and picnics. Because they don’t require refrigeration, they’re easy to transport, making them perfect for outdoor events or road trips. Plus, they’re a crowdpleaser. Who can resist the combination of warm bread and savory pepperoni?

While making pepperoni rolls from scratch is a labor of love, there’s an easy shortcut version that’s just as delicious. Using store-

bought frozen bread dough, you can whip up a batch in no time.

ShortCUt pepperoni roLLS

Servings: 8 total time: 27 minutes

16 ounces frozen bread dough, thawed 16 slices pepperoni

4 slices mozzarella cheese, cut into quarters 1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning

1 large egg, well beaten Splash of water

Preheat the oven to 400 F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. On a clean work surface, cut the thawed bread dough into 8 equal parts. Flatten

each piece to about 4 by 4 inches using your hands or a rolling pin.

Place 2 slices of pepperoni in the center of each dough square. You can add more pepperoni if you like, and no one would be mad at you. Top with 2 pieces of mozzarella and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Fold the outer edges of dough over the filling, then tightly roll the dough, pinching the seams to seal in the goodness. Place each roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they’re not touching. In a small bowl, beat the egg with a splash of water to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of each roll with egg wash for that beautiful golden, glossy finish. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with pizza or marinara sauce for dipping. They’re just as tasty at room temperature, making them perfect for snacking anytime, anywhere.
