State plans paving in Silver Creek CommunityDOT set to take over road maintenanceby Leah Justice

After years of deteriorat-ing roads, the Silver Creek Community (formerly Land of Lakes) in Mill Spring may finally be nearing a solution.

N.C. Department of Trans-portation (DOT) officials said

last week that right of way work could begin in the next couple of weeks for the state to take over ownership and main-tenance of the roads. Partial funding to pave phase I of the roads is budgeted for 2013.

State officials said although 2013 may seem a long time away, the good news is that once rights of way are obtained, the state can

take over the roads, which means the existing gravel roads will be state maintained until paving can begin.

The Silver Creek Community paving information came out of a DOT meeting in Polk County last week held to get community input regarding next year’s state

secondary road program. DOT representatives Conrad Bur-rell, Mark Gibbs, Lori Jones and Joel Setzer met with Polk County board of commissioner representatives and residents.

There was little discussion about the secondary road pro-gram, but more than 30 resi-dents attended, mostly offering comments about the need for the state to take over the Silver Creek Community roads.

Silver Creek Community submitted a petition last year to the state asking for the sub-division roads to be state main-tained.

One Silver Creek Commu-nity resident told state officials that the subdivision contains 400 parcels of land and about 275 homes, so it’s one of the largest subdivisions in the county.

Residents said the developer poured only about two inches of asphalt on about 10 percent of the roads, with the rest being rough cut. Some of the roads continually wash out, and at times of heavy rains and snow residents are sometimes trapped for two to three days, even with four wheel drive vehicles.

Residents also said this past year during snows, children had to walk a mile and a half to make it to the bus stop.

Other concerns were raised about overall safety, especially for children and response times for emergency services. One resident said response times for the ambulance have increased by five to 10 minutes because of the condition of the roads and that delay could be the differ-ence between life and death.

DOT's Gibbs told Silver Creek Community residents that it is extremely important for all rights of ways to be ob-tained, or the state cannot take over maintenance of the roads. He said the project has been given to the state right of way division and work could begin

as early as this week.“If one person refuses [to

give the state the right of way] it basically kills the deal,” Gibbs said.

Funding for paving will be another issue. The state has budgeted $128,000 in its 2013 budget, but that will not be enough to build the 1.1 miles of road scheduled for the first phase of the project. Gibbs said other funding may be available, through state representatives’ discretionary funding, but it is essentially up to residents of the community to come up with the remaining funding, more than half of the estimated $275,000 officials say it will cost to pave the first 1.1 miles.

Gibbs and other DOT of-ficials said that residents could talk to their state representa-tives to try to get other funding for the project.

“DOT certainly recognizes the need,” Gibbs told resi-dents. “I know what you’re up against.”

Gibbs said he had to put his ve-hicle in four wheel drive at times to get through the subdivision while looking at the project.

Don Yarbrough, representing the Silver Creek Community, thanked DOT and county offi-cials for working on this much needed project. He said there has been a positive change in morale around his community, and other positive initiatives have occurred such as a neigh-borhood watch and fundraising for other upgrades.

Yarbrough said most people who live there are on fixed incomes, including young fami-lies, elderly people and persons on disability.

He thanked several people for their efforts, including coun-ty commissioners, state repre-sentatives, county employees and DOT officials.

“You all have given 100 percent of your time and ef-fort,” Yarbrough said to those he thanked. “Once rights of ways are collected we are very hopeful our dream will become a reality.”

'Tighten belt,' Columbus residents tell town councilPublic hearing on budget tomorrowby Leah Justice

Columbus Town Council has been trying this week to cut its proposed budget to eliminate a proposed tax increase that has drawn criticism from some residents.

The town was previously con-sidering a 2-cent tax increase as well as a 20 percent increase in water and sewer rates.

Town council agreed last Wednesday to try to eliminate the proposed tax increase. A public hearing on the budget is scheduled for tomorrow night. The town's meeting begins at 7 p.m.

A few residents urged town council last week not to imple-ment tax and water and sewer rate increases.

“I realize times are tough all over,” said resident Kathleen Kent. “… But residents’ income is not rising and the cost of liv-ing is.”

Kent said there are areas in the budget that everyone would like to see funding for, but they are not critical during this dif-ficult time.

Susan Johann said her concern is that the town is proposing to increase rates during a time when so many residents are un-employed and there are no social security increases.

“I’d like to see that we are really tightening our belts,” Jo-hann said. “I’d like to see we’re cutting something before we raise taxes.”

Robbie Pack said Columbus knew the payments for water improvements were coming and urged council to put its foot down and show some leadership.

John Hicks said that people in the community don’t have a pot they can dip into like the town does, speaking of the town’s fund balance. He urged council to look at the budget long and hard and said hopefully the town can get through it without an increase.

Town council members have said through the budget process that they cannot continue to dip into fund balance to supplement the water and sewer fund. Last year the town used about $37,000 of fund balance for the water and sewer fund and received a letter of censure from the N.C. Local Government Commission. The town has so far used about $87,000 this year in fund balance and is expecting a stronger letter from the LGC this year.

“I feel like we’ve cut all the fat we can,” said councilman Mi-chael Gage. “The only other thing is employees and we have to run the town. I’m thinking about this all day. I’m working and I’m thinking about the budget. All our revenues are way down and it’s worse than I ever thought.”

Councilwoman Ernie Kan said she sees everyone else cut-ting back and Columbus is talk-ing about increases.

“I see the state and federal governments cutting back and everyone around us cutting back and we’re going up,” Kan said.

A two cent tax increase in Columbus would mean about a $20 annual increase per year on a $100,000 home. Kan said that doesn’t sound like much, but most homes in Columbus are worth more than $100,000. One penny in Columbus equals about

$12,000 in tax revenue.Columbus Mayor Eric McIn-

tyre said the town advertises the meetings and people know what’s going on, but very few people show up to give input. Kan an-swered that a lot of people can’t get out at night and mentioned that most people on council didn’t attend meetings before they were elected or became part of the town’s planning board.

The town is scheduled to adopt the budget Thursday night. The new fiscal year begins July 1.

Tryon plans cuts in trash service starting mid-JulyLeaves required to be baggedby Leah Justice

Tryon residents and busi-nesses will have fewer trash pickups soon.

The town’s proposed budget, which could have been adopted last night, will include cuts in trash service. Beginning July 19, there will be fewer garbage pickups per week, and leaves will have to be bagged instead of left on the street.

Residential garbage pickup will go from two days per week to one day per week and com-mercial garbage pickup will go from six days per week to five days.

Roughly speaking, garbage will be picked up on the west side of town on Tuesdays and on the east side of town on Thurs-days. Commercial garbage will be picked up Monday through Friday, with the town consider-ing providing locked bins to some businesses that have a large quantity of garbage on the weekends.

Curbside recycling will take place on Wednesdays and de-bris collection will take place on Mondays and Fridays on a call-in basis.

Council members discussed

Monday how to handle collection of debris, including yard debris, construction and demolition and white goods. They agreed that if the town employees see debris, they should go ahead and pick it up, but residents are urged to call and asked for it to be picked up.

Another change to the town’s service will be for garbage to be out and ready to be picked up by 7 a.m. on collection days. Crews requested that residential col-lection begin at 7 a.m. because of the lag time between com-mercial and residential pick up currently.

The town is planning to leave notices regarding the new sched-ule on house doors or in emptied recycling bins between now and July 19 to alert all residents of the change.

Council also discussed Mon-day requiring mandatory recy-cling. Mayor Alan Peoples and councilman Austin Chapman said they are in favor of making recycling mandatory, although they said the town would not enforce it. Councilman Roy Miller said he wasn’t in favor without an educational iniative about recycling being done first in Tryon.

Council was scheduled to vote on the mandatory recycling idea during its meeting last night.

Columbus approves license fees for gaming machinesNew $3k fee could be too high for some businessesby Leah Justice

The Town of Columbus has adopting a new gaming license ordinance with a $3,000 fee.

Council approved the new license for electronic gaming ma-chines recently, but interim finance officer Kathy Gregory said last week that many machines may be taken out because of the fee.

The town has about four busi-nesses that have gaming machines. The new licensing ordinance in-cludes a $3,000 flat fee plus $2,000

per electronic gaming machine/terminal.

The ordinance says the license will be required for “any business enterprise, whether as a primary or an accessory use, where persons utilize electronic machines, includ-ing but not limited to computers and gaming terminals, to conduct games of chance, including sweepstakes, and where further game credits, cash, merchandise or other items of value are redeemed or otherwise distributed, whether or not the value of such distribution is determined by electronic games played or by predetermined odds. This does not include any lottery approved by the State of North Carolina.”

by John ClaytonThe Landrum City Council re-

cently awarded the Landrum Sports Association an extra $1,000.

In the past, the LSA has annually received $2,000 from the council, but this year council members do-nated $3,000 to the group, which has struggled to raise funds privately because of the economic recession, according to Landrum City Admin-istrator Steve Wolochowicz.

“We don’t have a city recreation department because we’re just not big enough,” said Wolochowicz. “So, the Landrum Sports Association provides a service the city really can’t afford to provide. If we can help them out, it’s good for all of us.”

The meeting also included an executive session to discuss issues surrounding the city’s budget for the upcoming fiscal year. The budget must be approved by September, but Wolochowicz said he expects to give the council an initial look at the budget at its July meeting.

“I’ll be presenting it for discus-sion and, hopefully, a first reading,” he said. “I want to get it to them as early as possible.”

The city’s current operating bud-get is $1.75 million, but Wolochow-

Council gives Landrum Sports Association $3,000

icz said the proposed budget should be somewhat less because of the subtraction of several federal grants that were in play this past year.

He also said he will be attempt-ing to keep the remaining budget in line with this year’s, despite 10-per-cent increases in insurance.

“Other than the federal grants, the council has stated that they want personnel costs and other non-grant expenses to stay pretty much the same,” Wolochowicz said.

Letter to the Editor

One of the ‘perks’ of living in TryonTo the Editor:

Just want to bring to the people another reason for liv-ing in and around the Town of Tryon. No, the water and garbage bills are not going to go down.

It’s about when a person needs some extra attention from a local business, if he tries, he can usually get it.

Wednesday, June 9, my daughter had some very seri-ous surgery and needed some medicine after normal business hours of Owens Pharmacy. I could not get back to town be-fore they closed for the day.

I called them and Steve

Cobb gave me his home phone to call him when I got into town that night. I called and he beat me to the store and within a few minutes I was on my way with the much needed medicine (I did have prescriptions from her surgeon).

I’m sure some folks are thinking there are other stores around and yes, there are, but not in Tryon that I had done business with.

We try to shop Tryon as much as we can and we are very glad we have because I don’t know if I could have gotten this kind of attention in a big town or city.

I want to express my ap-preciation to Steve Cobb and Owens Pharmacy for being in the Town of Tryon.

PAC Dedicates Support Stone to Tryon Estates

Tryon Estates’ PACWalk Chair Larry Poe prepares to set the Butterfly Stone in PAC’s Support Garden. (photo submitted)

Six years ago, Tryon Estates’ residents and staff adopted “PACWalk for Preservation” as a way to help preserve the beautiful environment in which they live.

In honor of the generos-ity and love of the outdoors shown by the people who live and work at Tryon Estates, the Pacolet Area Conservancy has dedicated and placed a Butterfly Stone in its Support Garden.

According to PAC Executive Director Sally Walker, “Tryon Estates has contributed the ma-jor portion of the $41,000 raised by PACWalk since its inception in 2005.

“This reflected a well coordi-nated effort of appreciation for

our mountains, waterways, for-ests, and farmland by this won-derful retirement community. PAC wishes to acknowledge the hard work of Bob Dockendorf, who served as Tryon Estates Event Chair to carry the event through its growing years, as well as Larry and Alex Poe, who stepped up to head the Tryon Estates effort this year.”

PACWalk for Preservation takes place the first Saturday morning in May. Walker says to look for a larger event in 2011 which will include a broader spectrum of walkers and runners.

For more information about PAC’s conservation work, go to www.pacolet.org or call 828.859.5060.

Conversations from Birdlandby DonWeathington

On April 23, 2010 Jan Brewer, the governor of Arizona, signed the legislation that is becoming known as SB1070 (Senate bill #1070). This controversial bill has set off a firestorm of debate across the nation. What the law actually does is mandate that state law enforcement enforce the federal laws that are already in place.

It is the method of that en-forcement that raises ques-tions. The new law grants wide leeway to law enforcement to arrest individu-als for “prob-able cause” if the officer sus-pects that the individual is in the country il-legally - those officers are indemnified by the law against wrongful arrests. This is perhaps the most suspi-cious part of the new law - the part causing the highest degree of opposition.

There are also provisions in the bill that prohibit stopping traffic to pick up day laborers, soliciting work if you are here illegally, and commuting or suspending the sentence of any illegal until the punishment terms have been met. Almost one half of the law deals with punishments to employers who, knowingly or without taking proper precautions, employ per-sons in the country illegally.

The ease with which law enforcement may stop and even arrest raises the suspicion that racial profiling will be rampant in the attempt to enforce the law. This is an expectable fear.

Arizona is, after all, a state that voted against the observance of Martin Luther King Day as a holiday. It is also a state that has the largest ratio of illegal residents to legal ones. The suspicions regarding racism were only exacerbated when on May 24, 2010 Governor Brewer signed a bill into law that pro-hibits the teaching of any classes on ethnic studies in the state’s education system (HB 2281).

As I went about the business of researching the underpin-

nings of this latest national argument, I of-ten thought of the immigrant identity of our entire popu-lation. In the

final analysis we are all immi-grants - excepting full-blooded Native Americans.

In the early days of the set-tling of North America by Eu-ropeans, the primary entry point was New York/New Jersey area. From 1855 until 1892, immigrants primarily entered the U.S. through the Castle Gardens Immigration Depot in New York.

In 1892, the more famous Ellis Island station was opened. While there were rules and steps to gain entry to the country, im-migrants were largely treated with a sense of welcoming and even given a place to stay for a few days while meeting the requirements for entry.

In 1886, the Statue of Liberty was officially opened for the public.

In 1903, a plaque was affixed

containing those famous words written by Emma Lazarus in her poem The New Colossus: “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.”

Times are different now, certainly. Jobs (especially in the current economy) are less plenti-ful. People expect more for do-ing less. There is great anxiety about the effect of uncontrolled immigration’s impact on our health care, education, and other social service systems. These are legitimate fears.

The elephant in the living room, however, is that racism is with us still - and probably always will be. After all, no one is suggesting building a fence between the U.S. and Canada.

Sadly, the attitude that the world has admired for two centuries - that America wel-comes those who seek freedom and opportunity - has eroded away.

I hear frequently that “(We) aren’t against immigration; we just want everybody to do it legally.” If that is true, why have we not moved immigra-tion centers like those from the New York area in the past, to the Texas/New Mexico/Arizona/ California borders? It’s almost like the characterization that we have used the open door to gain access, but now we want to slam it shut and lock it.

I suspect that at the bottom is that base human foible: Rac-ism.

Don Weathington is a retired psychotherapist and business owner who lives in Gillette Woods at a place called Birdland.

Pea Ridge Baptist Church celebrates 96th birthday

Sunday, June 20, marks the 96th birthday of Pea Ridge Baptist Church. It was organized “on the third Sunday afternoon of June 1914.” Before that time, people attended Manus Methodist Church

nearby, or walked or went by buggy to Mill Spring First Baptist Church, a distance of about four miles.

In anticipation of its 100th birthday in June, 2014, the church is gathering information and pictures

of earlier times for the big celebra-tion. Should you have written items of interest and pictures, contact Ann Carswell at 828-894-8802 or Rich-ard Smith at 828-859-6705.

Saluda News &

Notationsby Bonnie Bardos

(ConTinueD on page 15)

‘Make a splash’ summer reading program starts “A profusion of pink roses bending ragged in the rain speaks to me of all gentleness and its enduring.” ~The Collected Later Poems of William Carlos Williams

Welcome to mid-June Saluda notes and nota-tions: along with a bustling down-town, our Saluda gardens are lush and green with busy bees and birds... a cou-ple days ago, I walked in my jungle of a backyard to pick flowers. Like mille-fleur, thou-sands of soft lavender-tinted fever few blossoms sprang up suddenly in view — what an unexpected delight on a summery June morning!

With school out soon, and kids needing something to do, remember the Saluda Community Library’s “Make A Splash” summer reading program that runs from today, June 16-July 28. For more information about this, or other programs at the Saluda library, call 828-749-2117.

A little bird told me that Ray McLees in Tryon is thrilled to hear there really is a stool marked for him at Ward’s Grill. Clark Thompson will close on the building this week, and we are SO happy and pleased

to have someone step up to take over this heart-of-Saluda land-mark, with some wonderful new additions com-ing. When you see what kind of

building development Clark has done in Pensacola, Florida, you realize here is someone who appreciates and loves old buildings and history. You can see some of his thoughtful work and planning at his website: www.thompson-briggs.com

Karen Johnson is enjoying visit-ing grandchildren these June days, and many others have family and friends heading into town for visits.

Before we know it, July and Coon Dog Day will be here. Are the days, months, and years getting faster, or is it just all my imagination?

Reminder Note: Keep in mind that the Saluda tailgate market is on Fridays at the city parking lot off Main Street (follow the signs) from 4:30 to 6:30 with local produce, flowers, homemade soup, breads, and all manner of goodies. Friendly folks all around; stop by and visit. The smiles are free, and it’s nice to see little kids, old folks, dogs, and all sorts enjoying Saluda breezes and socializing.

The Saluda Senior Center at 64 Greenville Street will have an Art Reception on June 18th at 5:00 for talented local artists Marguerite Hankins and Bill & Anne Jameson, so please plan to attend, or get by to see the exhibit during the month of June. Also, come enjoy a community potluck at the center on June 24th at 6:00 with the gospel group, “Reflec-tion of Grace”. Board members are: Judy Ward, Bill Klippel, Brenda Bo-hannon, Joe Marley, Anne Jameson, Melanie Talbot, Neill Bultman, Edie Campbell, Margaret Sease, Henry Bright, Betty Wilkerson, and Bob

Bailey. Directors are Donna Carson and Judy Moore. The Senior Center isn’t just for seniors....we can all enjoy the many offerings! Meals On Wheels volunteers always needed and appreciated.

The annual meeting of Saluda Medical Center’s Board of Trustees begins at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, June 17th at the Saluda Senior Cen-ter, which is next door to the medi-cal center. Light refreshments will be served, and a presentation will be given on accomplishments and goals resulting from the development of the five year strategic plan. The public is invited.

Don’t forget to send those birth-days in! Again, I promise: no age mentioned.

Thank you all for your remarks and feedback about this column: it just makes my day knowing someone out there reads it.

DR. ROBERT MCDANIEL

Once upon a time, not so long ago, a local couple happened upon a skinny little Appaloosa mare in a dirt lot. Her owner no longer wanted to trail ride her; she wasn’t needed any more.

Luckily this couple knew a few things about horses and decided to take her home with them and find the little mare a new family. Some extra food, good grass and a few trail rides later this couple put an ad up in the local feed store.

At this very same time, a sweet “horse crazy” young girl had convinced her parents to let her take some riding lessons. She caught the bug and now dreamed of having her own horse. After some poking and prodding her parents answered an ad they found at the local feed store: an Appaloosa mare – for sale!

The little girl, whose name is Amanda, met the little mare, who’s name is Nia, and as most dreams happen (when they come true) it was destined they be together.

One man's trash is another's treasure

Amanda started to take lessons from a local profes-sional. After about six weeks of lessons Amanda and Nia

entered the Foothills Riding Club Horse Trial at FENCE where they won their dres-sage class and successfully

completed the cross-country course and stadium jump-ing. They ended up high point!

PCHS girls soccer surged to playoffsYoung Wolverines rally for 15-9 seasonStaff reports

a young polk County High school girls soccer team’s 2010 season ended with a journey into the third round of the state playoffs and a 15-9 overall record against stiff competition.

the combined overall records of the North Carolina teams pCHs faced this past season was 156-94-11. pCHs also played tournament games against south Carolina 4a teams Byrnes and spartanburg.

“I felt like we had a good season,” said pCHs head coach Lennox “rock” Charles. “Com-pared to the past 4-5 years it might seem a little disappointing, but the rest of the conference has improved, and we lost six starters from last year. We also lost to the three-time (including this year) Western region Champions, and state runner up. the team that won the conference was state runner-up for 1a, and we split with them.”

the Wolverines lost six start-ers from the 2009 team, replacing them from four reserves from that squad and a pair of former junior varsity players making their var-sity debuts.

But the pCHs youth respond-ed after some early struggles that led to a 1-4 start to the season. af-ter a win over Class 3a foe Fred t. Foard in the season-opening Burns (N.C.) tournament, the Wolverines lost their next four games to three Class 4a schools and a 3a opponent.

the team rebounded with a 6-0 win over Landrum and a 9-1 pasting of Mitchell.

While those victories were impressive, the Wolverines also endured some heartbreaking losses along the way.

avery scored the winning goal with four seconds to play in a 3-2 win over pCHs, and the Wolverines lost a heartbreaker 3-1 against shelby before a con-vincing 5-0 win over Mountain Heritage just prior to spring break.

the victory over Mountain Heritage proved to be a sign of things to come as pCHs went on a roll, winning seven-straight games.

the Wolverines’ surge started with the team’s very first win over asheville by a count of 5-0. they also stopped Madison 6-0, owen 5-2, Mountain Heritage 3-0, Mitchell 6-2, Hendersonville

2-1 and avery 1-0.at the end of the winning

streak, pCHs owned an 11-6 overall record and was 8-1 in the conference.

the Wolverines streak ended with a 1-0 loss to thomas Jef-ferson. the two teams then met again with thomas Jefferson pulling out another 1-0 victory, this time scoring the winning goal with six seconds remaining.

once again, pCHs rebounded with three straight victories – over owen 2-0, Hendersonville 2-1 in overtime on senior Night and at Madison 6-1 – to end the regular season.

pCHs was 14-8 overall and

11-3 in region play at season’s end, tied for second in the con-ference standings with thomas Jefferson, behind conference champion avery. the Wolverines earned the top 2a seed from the conference heading into the playoffs.

the Wolverines opened the playoffs with a first-round bye and a 2-0 victory over pisgah in the second round.

But the season ended with a trip to then unbeaten and top-ranked Forbush, winners of the Western region the past three years. Forbush defeated pCHs 5-0 and went on to become state runner-up.

anna trakas, a four-year starter for the polk County High school girls soccer team, has been chosen to play for the West in the prestigious east-West Women’s soccer all-star game to be held in July in greensboro.

trakas led the team in scoring both her freshman and senior years. she was a team captain and all-Conference and all-region this year.

“she had everyone in the conference games plan for her this season and she still had 17 goals and 7 assists,” said pCHs head coach rock Charles. “I have been lucky to have had the opportunity to coach anna these past four years. there are not many female players who can strike a ball like she can, and it has been a huge asset to us.”

trakas has signed to play for salem College in Winston salem, where she will join her former high-school teammate, Jazmine Bridgeman.

Polk County High School all-region shortstop Danny Fraga (3) will continue his playing career at Catawba Valley Community College in Hickory. (photo by staff photographer)

By John Clayton

Danny Fraga’s dream to play college baseball will come true at Catawba Valley Community College.

Fraga, a two-time Western Highlands 2a/1a all-region shortstop from polk County High school, decided early to sign with the Buccaneers and head coach Frank pait.

“I’m excited,” Fraga said. “It’s a great coaching staff (at CVCC). Coach pait is an amaz-ing man, and I’m excited to play for him.”

pait left Lenoir rhyne Uni-versity, where he won a school record 291 games, to take over CVCC’s fledgling program. CCVC played its inaugural base-ball season this past spring.

Fraga hopes the leadership skills he gained as a team captain at pCHs will translate into a successful college career as the fledgling program at CVCC con-tinues to grow. the Buccaneers were 31-20 in their first season of NJCaa competition.

after moving to polk County from Florida after his sophomore year of high school, Fraga had to adjust from an urban school of more than 6,000 students to pCHs with less than 800.

“It was a life-changing experi-ence,” he said.

But baseball was the constant amidst all the change – and Fraga became a constant atop

the Wolverines’ batting order and in the middle of the infield at shortstop.

Fraga, who was named all-state as a junior, batted .417 in both of his pCHs seasons, setting a school single-season record for doubles with 16, and stealing 46 bases and scoring 61 runs over two seasons.

“He’s the best shortstop I’ve seen in high school – and really the best I’ve seen in college,” said pCHs head coach ty stott. “I’ll probably never have another lead-off hitter like him again. He’s such a natural at lead-off – with patience and a great eye for picking up the ball right out of the pitcher’s hand.”

Fraga said the move to polk County and the help of his ameri-can Legion coaches as well as stott got him more recognition than he might have had at the much larger school in Florida.

“I felt like coming here was an advantage,” Fraga said. “Now, I get to get into college and do what I love. I love baseball.”

While in college, Fragas will also pursue another passion with hopes of becoming an eMt and/or firefighter, a curriculum of-fered at CVCC.

“I’ve always been interested in the medical field – ever since going to the nursing home where my grandmother worked (as a nurse).

“I want to help people.”

Fraga taking bat to CVCC

Jimmie Reese Lowry

Jimmie Reese Lowry of High Point, N.C., after fighting a coura-geous battle with cancer, died on June 13, 2010 at Hospice of the Piedmont. He was 65 years old.

He was born in 1944 in Lum-berton, N.C., the first of four sons to Harvey and Myrtle Lowry. After receiving what he would later term a priceless education both in the classroom and in the cotton fields of Robeson County, he matriculated at North Carolina State University, where he gradu-ated with honors with a bachelor of science degree in aeronautical engineering. Before graduating, he married his high school sweet-heart, Phyllis Ann Locklear, of Pembroke, N.C., in 1964.

After graduating, he and his wife moved to Marietta, Georgia in 1966, where he began his career as an Aircraft Research Engineer with Lockheed Aircraft Corpo-ration. Though he enjoyed the challenging nature of his work, his interest in the pursuit of other opportunities never waned, and culminated in his hiring by Gen-eral Electric in 1969. Though his background and expertise were technical, he quickly immersed himself in GE’s corporate ethos and was identified as a rising star in the company. By 1973 he was GE’s district sales manager for North and South Carolina.

Always interested in owning his own business, when an op-portunity at a small dealership in Tryon presented itself, he and his family made the difficult decision to leave GE and move to Tryon. There he became dealer/owner of Lowry Chevrolet, Inc., from 1977-1987. From 1982-1983, he also served as state purchas-ing officer under Governor Jim Hunt. In 1987, at the request of High Point businessman George Lyles, he became vice president/general manager of the Lyles Companies. In 1992, he became owner/president of Lowry Buick-Oldsmobile-Pontiac-Chevrolet-Geo, Inc., in Thomasville, N.C. In 1998, he became president of

Obituaries High Point Chevrolet Jeep, LLC. No longer an owner after 2002, he spent his remaining years as an automotive consultant.

Leaving the automobile busi-ness allowed Jim to devote more time to other endeavors which were of tremendous personal importance. In 2001, he was appointed to the board of direc-tors of the Charlotte Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. He was elected chairman of the board in 2006. His involvement with the board served as a time of exceptional growth and experience, not only in terms of his edification, but in terms of his contributions to the board and the establishment of particularly significant relation-ships with other members of the board. He approached his tenure in this capacity with the same zeal with which he approached every challenge, and he cherished his opportunity to play even a small role in helping the Federal Re-serve shape monetary policy.

Jim also was able to devote more time to the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina. As a proud mem-ber of the tribe, he cared deeply about its members, and particular-ly the people of Robeson County. Upon his appointment by Judge Howard Manning as chairman of the Lumbee Self-Determination Commission, he played an in-tegral role in the establishment of a tribal constitution. With the mechanisms of a tribal govern-ment more formally established, he then turned his attention to issues of great importance to the tribe, including federal recogni-tion and economic development/empowerment.

Recognition of his leadership came in the form of a number of appointments and awards: chairman of the North Carolina Commission of Indian Affairs (1977-1984); member of the North Carolina State University Board of Visitors; member of the General Motors Minority Dealer Advisory Council; member of the Wachovia Bank & Trust Advisory Board, High Point, NC; Lifetime Achievement Award by the North Carolina Automobile Dealers As-sociation; Distinguished Service

Award by the Lumbee Regional Development Association; The Order of the Long Leaf Pine, awarded by Governor Jim Hunt in 1981; and The Order of the Old North State, awarded by Governor Beverly Eaves Perdue in June, 2010.

However, Jim’s life was never about personal enrichment or personal gain—it was always about the passionate practice of selfless service. He never turned away from an opportunity to help other people, and felt it was his duty to give more than was asked of him. His love for and commitment to Covenant United Methodist Church, Tryon United Methodist Church, his career, his friends, and his charitable and civic responsibilities were superseded only by his love for and commitment to his family. At times an impassioned leader, at times a stoic sage dispensing advice when his counsel was solicited, he held steadfast to one guiding tenet of his life: Putting the interests and needs of others before his own.

Family and friends alike will remember a man who cared deep-ly about the people of Robeson County; a man who loved and served God with all his heart; a man who couldn’t hide the sparkle in his eye the first time he saw his granddaughter ride her bike, or the last time he saw his wife of 45 years; a man who loved and cherished his friends, and the people with whom he worked; a man who handled his illness with magnanimity; and a man who saw life not as a series of inexorable obstacles to overcome, but as a series of opportunities to try to enrich the lives of other people. For all the reasons he will be so warmly received in his next life are the very reasons he will be so deeply missed in this one.

He is survived by his wife, Phyllis Ann Lowry, of High Point; daughter, Jayme Burmeis-ter, and her husband, Paul, of High Point; son, Chad Lowry, of High Point; brother, Robby Low-ry, of Rowland, N.C.; brother, Harvey Lowry, Jr., of Maxton, N.C.; and beloved granddaughter, his namesake, Reece MaryAnn

Burmeister.He was preceded in death by

his brother, Rev. Dr. Jerry Lowry of Sanford, N.C.; and parents Harvey and Myrtle Lowry of Rowland, N.C.

A private burial for family was held at Pleasant Grove United Methodist Church in Rowland, N.C.

A memorial service honoring his life will be held at Covenant United Methodist Church in High Point, N.C., on Sunday, June 20, 2010 at 6:30 p.m.

The family wishes to express their sincere appreciation for the numerous inquiries and calls of support received during this dif-ficult time.

In lieu of flowers, donations to honor Jim Lowry’s memory can be made to Hospice of the Piedmont, 1803 West Chester Dr., High Point, N.C. 27265.

McDougald Funeral Home and Crematorium of Laurinburg is serving the family (www.Mc-Dougald.com)

• Rotate Tires Regularly. Regu-lar rotation helps extend the life of your tires, saving time and money in the long run. Rotation ensures that all the tires wear evenly and last longer. If no period is specified in your vehicle's owner's manual, tires should be rotated every 6,000 to 8,000 miles.

Talking water cooperation againTimes have changed — again — when it comes to local

cooperation on water.at a joint meeting between polk County commissioners

and elected officials from Columbus, Saluda and Tryon last week, the idea that the entire county might join in one water authority was reborn – again.

economic times have changed, and so have two town managers and several council members, since the idea was abandoned in 2008, after years of back and forth.

In 2008, the county proceeded on its own. To get its new system started, polk County formed a partnership with Broad River Water authority to run a water line through green Creek and then signed a deal to purchase Lake adger.

The fact that there was no agreement with the towns, and thus no obvious customers for Lake adger water, led Henderson County to oppose polk’s plans to tap Lake adger last September. They feared green River water would go to a thirsty Spartanburg County.

Now the towns are seeing a different light. Tryon Town Manager Justin Hembree says he “bangs his head on the desk” trying to figure out how Tryon can maintain its own water system, and the processing plant which is under reno-vation for $3 million. Columbus has a good water plant but is planning $3.6 million in renovations to its sewer plant. Tryon has a good sewer plant.

as customers look at rising bills, it makes sense that their town leaders would look at ways to reduce and spread out the costs. Sharing customers and overhead is certainly the most logical way. perhaps there is still time for Columbus to change its sewer plant plans and pump to Tryon.

Local government officials plan to meet again in August, specifically to learn more about Tuckaseigee Water Author-ity in Jackson County, where three towns and the county began forming a countywide system back in 1992. — JB

Most decorated Saluda nativeTo the editor:

After having received sev-eral inquiries from readers of my article in the May 28, 2010 issue of the Tryon Daily Bulletin, who expressed interest, particularly, in John Rhodes’ decorations for his combat ser-vice during WWII, I hasten to make that information available and offer an explanation for its omission in the original article.

Not unlike most seasoned vet-erans who have experienced the horrors of combat, John Rhodes, and in particular because of his sensitive nature, was reluctant for me to describe his med-als, concerned that those who had similar or more embattled service may think him overly ostentatious.

John understand, however, that there may be a genuine and sincere interest, particularly among those of us who remem-ber so well the sacrifices of so many during that tragic, war-time period, and he has asked that I write a brief follow-up.

As described in his Honor-

able Discharge papers (DD214), John Rhodes was decorated for his participation in battles in Normandy, Northern France, and the Ardennes with the American Theatre Service Medal, EMAT Campaign Medal, Three Bronze

Service Stars, Two Purple Heart Med-als with Oak Leaf Clusters, Combat Infantryman Badge and a Good Conduct

Medal.My citing John in the article

as the most decorated Saluda vet-eran of WWII, while not stated precisely to designate the group of veterans from which selected, referred exclusively to those na-tive Saluda area veterans who were decorated for their service.

It was not my intention to ignore the honorable service of those non-native veterans who have subsequently become part of the Saluda community and whose combat records were more timely and appropriately recog-nized in their hometowns.

We are grateful for their per-sonal sacrifices during war-time and, for many, their unselfish contributions since settling in the Saluda area.

— W. Roy Eargle

Water sprinklers going full blastTo the editor:

I see from the June 3 Tryon Daily Bulletin that the Town of Tryon has a $150,000 shortfall primarily due to water plant up-grades and that the town plans to

raise Tryon’s water rates to help cover that shortfall.

If that is a fact: Why does the town have the ‘Nina Simone park’ sprinklers going full blast in the middle of Wednesday’s huge rainstorm?

— Henry H. Hubbard III
