I watch folks walk by each day crossing the nar-row bridge here on South Main Street. Better connectivity with a designated path will make it much safer going from South Davie Middle School to the recreation complex.”The project began in 2019 when Davie County was award-ed a matching grant from the N.C. Department of Transpor-tation’s (NCDOT) integrated mobility division to complete a comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian plan. Adopted by the board of commissioners in March 2021, the 100-plus page Davie County Bicycle, Pedes-trian, and Greenways Master Plan serves as a guide to plan and build a network of bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The plan has identified fea-sible, constructible bicycle and pedestrian routes along stream corridors, through open spac- es, and along roads in Davie County“The plan was the result of Davie County’s desire to make safe, accessible walking and biking part of the County’s identity while pursuing Davie County’s brand, “You Belong Here!” said Moore. “A more walkable and bikeable commu-nity will provide residents and visitors of Davie County with multiple benefits including im-proved mobility, safety, health, Please See Trails - Page 4 Please See EMS - Page 7 Brian Byrd is back - this time heading a new county department instead of EMS director, a job he held until he was placed on administrative leave after the county decided to leave its EMS station at the Advance Fire Department.Interim Davie County Man-ager Mike Ruffin said his in-vestigation found that Byrd did not commit any major infrac-tions that would justify harsh consequences such as dismiss-al.

I worked for Andrew Brock for several years as a legal intern when he ably served Davie County in the North Carolina Senate. The clerk of court runs the day-to-day operations of the county court system. As a practicing lawyer, I can tell you the clerk is essential to the administration of justice in the county. Having worked for Andrew Brock and seen how he managed his senate office and staff, I’m confident he has the skills needed to run the clerk’s office efficiently and effectively, always being mindful of taxpayer dollars. One aspect of the job that many citizens aren’t aware of is that the clerk of court also has judicial responsibilities. The clerk of court is the ex officio judge of probate and acts as a judge in special proceedings. Andrew Brock respects the rule of law and will be an impartial and fair-minded judge. As someone who worked closely with Andrew Brock for several years and now practices law in the courts of North Carolina, I wholeheartedly recommend him for Da-vie County Clerk of Court. Luke J. Farley, Raleigh To the editor:Merriam-Webster defines the word judge as follows: “a public official authorized to decide questions brought be-fore a court”. I believe Jon Welborn to be well-suited for Davie/Davidson District Court Judge.Jon and I met in 2008 when he and his wife moved to Davie County. While Jon’s Campaign Card list his many professional qualifications, I want to speak on behalf of Jon, both as a person and a friend. Jon and I are both ac-tively involved at Hillsdale United Methodist Church; I have had the pleasure of observing Jon in numerous leader-ship roles over the years. He has faithfully served as usher, life group co-leader, and VBS group leader. Perhaps, more significantly, I have witnessed Jon’s ability to step up in a crisis and be fully present and engaged for the long haul in his calm and steady way. On a wider level, Jon supported Davie County’s Family Promise during our church’s rotation. He also served on the Family Promise Board in the early years. Jon is a dedicated husband and devoted father. He can often be found on the Little League Field, coaching his daughters’ ball teams. Not only does Jon love God, family, and country, he loves North Carolina. Jon was born and reared in Wilkes County, where his mother still lives, today. Jon loves this dear county and our surrounding counties. Christian values are exemplified in Jon’s life. His per-sonal integrity, character, and moral values make Jon Wel-born the man to support and vote for Davie/Davidson Dis-trict Court Judge.Carrie ChappleAdvance Jon Welborn well suited to be a judge To the editor:I am writing this letter of endorsement of Jon Welborn for district court judge in 2022. I have known Jon and his family for over 10 years, beginning when my husband and our family first moved to Davie County. Meeting his wife initially as a professional colleague and then becoming ac-quainted with Jon and their children at our mutual church, Hillsdale UMC, I realized quickly this was a man of deep character and integrity.I have served with Jon on many occasions at Hillsdale, as Jon would lead a group every year for Vacation Bible School. As a VBS coordinator, I could always rely on Jon to help out where needed with a jovial and positive atti-tude. In addition to childcare ministries, Jon serves as a dutiful usher and life group coordinator.One characteristic I really admire about Jon is the atten-tion and focus he gives to his role as a husband and father. If Jon is volunteering, whether at church, or at the ball field, or in the community, he is incorporating his daughters into those opportunities. He loves to teach his girls new life les-sons and skills. Jon makes these interactions fun and en-tertaining. He is slow to anger and wise in his instruction.In closing, I can confirm Jon is a man of conviction and honor. He cares for his faith, his family, and his friends. He would serve on the bench as he has served his community. Davie county would be fortunate to have him as district court judge. I strongly voice my support for Jon Welborn.Elizabeth Tysinger, Advance Welborn a man of conviction and honor The Opal NecklaceBy Julie Terry CartnerIn a continuation of my Lenten journey, I continue to write about simple things that bring me joy. Today, I re-member a necklace that was far more than a necklace to me. The memory brings me the delight that comes from being a beloved child. As you journey down your path, I challenge you to find your own memories that bring you appreciation and happiness. There is a necklace in my dresser drawer, still in the original, dark pink velvet case. The silver heart encases an opal, my birthstone.In my twelve-year-old mind, this was the most beauti-ful piece of jewelry. It wasn’t just the necklace; it was the whole package. The pearlescent opal held hidden sparks of color, deep blues and purples, greens, and dark pinks which turned into fire when the sun hit it. The silver heart and chain sparkled in the light of Uncle Wilbur and Aunt Renee’s Orient Country Store. They didn’t carry jewelry as a rule; the store was more of a basic necessities kind of place with a wonderful case of penny candy. With a shared quarter, my sister and I could leave with a bag brimming with that candy: fireballs and jawbreakers, vanilla caramel creams, and chocolate kisses.But one day, Dad and I were in the store, and there was the necklace. Because opals are much more fragile than most other birthstones, my parents were hesitant to give me any. Being the outdoor kind of person that I was, and still am, an opal necklace was not a very practical present, and my parents were sure that I’d wear it swimming, or ice skating, or just on my impetuous rambles through the woods, climbing trees and crawling into caves. So, as much as I longed for that opal necklace, I knew it was not to be. But time changes many things. It was the spring of my sixth-grade year, and graduation from the el-ementary school was a big deal for us Orienters. All the girls wore white dresses, and the boys wore suits. The next year we’d have to ride a bus to Greenport to continue our education. Graduation was more than just finishing seven years of education; it was a rite of passage; we were chil-dren no more. The night of graduation, dressed in my adult white dress, my hair set and curled, I slipped on my white shoes. Dad walked into the room, and I prayed he’d treat me like a young lady and not a child. He couldn’t have done any bet-ter. Smiling, he reached in his pocket and pulled out the dark pink velvet box of my dreams. Opening it and reveal-ing the opal necklace, he told me I looked beautiful, and then he told me that as I was growing up, he thought I was old enough to care for the necklace. Opening the clasp, he put it around my neck, kissed me, and told me how proud he was of me.As an adult, I realize the necklace doesn’t have a great deal of monetary value, but I truly don’t care. Dad let Mom do most of the present shopping, and, though the tags al-ways said, Love Mom and Dad, we all knew the presents were purchased by Mom. But this time, Dad had seen how badly I wanted that necklace, and he purchased it for me. As it turns out, he’d bought it that day, right before my eyes. Who knew he could be that sneaky?The necklace remains in my dresser. I neither lost it nor damaged it. Rather, I treasured it. I wear it occasionally, and whenever I fasten the clasp around my neck, I think of my dad, the farmer, the salt of the earth, the man that he was. And yet, despite his practical nature, he bought me a present that was so much more than a necklace. Dad, a man who loved his family, listened with his heart, and helped his baby girl start down the path to adulthood. Five GenerationsBy Gaye HootsMy first memories are of the farmhouse where we lived with my father’s parents: Jasper called “Jap” and Maude Hoots. My father and grandfather farmed the land, and we lived with my grandparents until I was six years old. The house overlooked the Yadkin River, and no other homes were visible. A large shed housed farm equipment and pro-vided a place to work under shelter. Beyond that was a barn and pasture for pigs; further up the hill was a large cattle barn and the cow pastures. Goats and the dogs had access to the yard. I grew up raising the runt pig from each litter, playing In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn to-ward the first day of the week, came Mary Magda-lene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.His countenance was like lightning, and his rai-ment white as snow:And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and be-came as dead men.And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is ris-en from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his dis-ciples word.And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Je-sus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you al-ways, even unto the end of the world. Amen.- KJV EasterBy Edmund Spenser (c. 1552-99), Most glorious Lord of Lyfe! that, on this day,Didst make Thy triumph over death and sin;And, having harrowd hell, didst bring awayCaptivity thence captive, us to win:This joyous day, deare Lord, with joy begin;And grant that we, for whom thou diddest dye,Being with Thy deare blood clene washt from sin,May live for ever in felicity! And that Thy love we weighing worthily,May likewise love Thee for the same againe;And for Thy sake, that all lyke deare didst buy,With love may one another entertayne!So let us love, deare Love, lyke as we ought,—Love is the lesson which the Lord us taught. Matthew 28 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 14, 2022 - 3 Presidential sites Renegade ... By Betty Etchison WestEnterprise Record If a person from Da-vie County is interested in learning about the e18th President of the United States, Ulysses S. Grant, the best place to start is at Point Pleasant, Ohio, which is near the banks of the Ohio River. That place, which is about 380 miles from Mocksville, is the birthplace of Ulysses S. Grant. From there you can trav-el to Georgetown, Ohio, where Grant grew up; then to “White Haven” in St. Louis, Mo.; his wife’s home where the Grants lived for a period of time; to Grant’s farm, “Hard-scrabble,” which is also in Saint Louis; to Galena, Ill., where the Grants lived before and after the Civil War; to the Grant Cottage State Historic Site at Mount McGregor, Wilton, N.Y., where Grant died; and last-ly to the Grant Monument in New York, City. That does not include the many military posts where Grant was stationed and was joined by his wife when it was safe. Also, it does not include the White House, which was Julia Grant’s favorite abode, but which her husband was happy to leave after he served two terms as Presi-dent. The small wooden cot-tage, where Ulysses Grant was born is in the com-munity of Point Pleasant, which is near the bank of the Ohio River. That cot-tage is administered by Historic New Richmond and is open April-October. Grant’s father moved to Point Pleasant because he could find work as a tanner. This small house has three rooms. It is furnished with period furniture and it has a few items that belonged to the Grants on display thereMr. Grant was evidently a successful tanner because he soon made enough to build his own tannery in Georgetown, Ohio, which about 25 miles from Point Pleasant. The house that the Grants moved to was larg-er. It has been remodeled several times and it is now much larger. It is private-ly owned. The owner will allow tours of the house if reservations are made in advance.Grant’s father want-ed his son to go to West Point and was able to get to get Ulysses an admis-sions nomination. Ulysses did not really want to go to that school, but he did what his father told him. While at West Point, Ulyss-es went to “White Haven,” his roommate’s home, for a weekend. There he met his roommate’s sister, Julia, who turned out to be the love of his life. Grant com-pleted his education at West Point. Even though he was not at the top of his class, he graduated and received his commission as an Army officer. Julia’s father did not want her to marry a mil-itary man because he knew she would face hardships which she had never had to face because her fami-ly had servants to care for her every need as she grew up. Love won. Ulysses and Julia got engaged, but the wedding was delayed for several years because Ul-ysses was deployed to the west to fight in the Mexi-can War. After a four-year engagement, the young couple was married.They lived for several years at army bases around the country. Finally, Ulyss-es received an assignment where his wife could not live with him. After that, Grant had problems and decided to resign from the Army. After he returned, the couple lived at “White Haven” and then at another house owned by the Dents. Ulysses began to cut logs to build his own house on land given to the couple by Julia’s father. Ulysses built that log house with his own hands all the way from cut-ting the logs to fitting them together to made a house. He did everything accept the windows and doors. That house was named “Hardscrabble.” That house is now owned by Anheus-er-Busch Companies. Call 314-843-1700 for informa-tion or an appointment. Ulysses tried farming and was not a success. He was not successful at anything he tried. At one point he was hauling wood through the town, trying to sell it to make a little mon-ey. After facing failure at everything he tried, Ulysses decided to move to Galena, Ill. to work with his father in a tannery, a job which he never wanted, but at that point he was desperate.The Civil War started after the family had moved to Galena and a dispirited Ulysses was working in the tannery, a job he hated. The former soldier decided to join the Union Army. This time he was more success-ful; in fact, so successful that Abraham heard about his successes as he lead his troops at Vicksburg, Miss. and in other battles. Lin-coln had had problems find-ing a leader for the Union Army who would fight and win. When he heard about Grant’s victories, he named Ulysses S. Grant the Com-manding General of the Union Army. At last Grant found success and it was to Ulysses Grant that Robert E. Lee, the Commander of the Army of the Confeder-ate States, surrendered at Appomattox Courthouse Author Betty West stands in front of a home of the 28th President, Ulysses S. Grant; his hime in Galena, Ill.; and his tomb in New York City. Tour Grant sites from Ohio to Illinois to New York President Ulysses S. Grant and his wife, Julia. on April 9, 1865.After the war, Grant be-came a civilian again and he and his family went back to Galena. This time he re-ceived a hero’s welcome and was given a mansion by people of Galena in ap-preciation for his service during the Civil War. That place is now called the U.S. Grant Home State Histor-ical Site and it is located at 511 Bouthillier St. The Grants did not live in this house long before Grant got another important job, but there are many items in house right where the Grants left them.After the disastrous ad-ministration of Andrew Johnson, the American people once again looked to a military man to lead the country as president. Mr. Grant knew he did not have the requirement for that po-sition. According the to the book, “The American Pres-ident” by the Kunhardts, quotes Grant as saying: “It was my fortune or misfor-tune, to be called to the office of Chief Executive without any previous po-litical training … I did not want the Presidency, and I have never quite forgiven myself for resigning my commission in the army to accept it…war and politics are different.” President Grant appoint-ed people he believed had the skills needed to govern, but a number of those peo-ple turned out to be dishon-est. Grant’s administration is one of the most scan-dal-ridden in history. After two terms, Grant sent the leaders in his po-litical party a letter say-ing that he would not be a candidate for a third term. Grant’s wife was livid when she found out about that letter. She loved living in the White House and be-ing First Lady. One writer said that she had to be pried out of the White House like an oyster from its shell. After leaving the White House, Grant invested in a company that went bank-rupt, and he lost all of his savings. He was devastat-ed. Mr. Grant so wanted to leave enough to take care of his wife for the rest of her life. Grant’s friend, the author, Mark Twain, told him to write his memoirs, or an autobiography. Grant decided to do that, but, by that time, he was quite sick with cancer of the throat. A friend let him move to a cot-tage in the mountains away from the heat and noise of New York City where the Grants were living at that time. Grant went to that cottage, which is now called Grant Cottage State Historic Site on Mount McGregor, Wilton, N.Y., and he worked furiously because he knew that his time was running out. He finished his book four days before he died. The book was a success and provided enough money for Julia to live comfortably.Ulysses S. Grant is bur-ied at the General Grant National Memorial on Riv-erside Drive in New York City. Julia Dent Grant lived 17 years after the death of her husband. She is buried beside him at the Grant Me-morial. You can end your Grant odyssey at the Grant Memorial, which is an ab-solutely huge monument. Continued From Page 2with the goats and dogs, and watching my grandfather weave fish baskets to catch fish from the river. He also raised vegetables, grapes, strawberries, and had a small orchard. The large barn was for the dairy cows, and I was allowed to roam freely there.My mother’s parents, Robe and Bessie Fulk were also farmers who lived near Pilot Mountain, but their farm was for grain and tobacco, not animals. Both sets of grandpar-ents raised large families, survived the Depression, and raised families who learned to work hard and provide for themselves and their families.When I was six years old, we moved to Marchmont, and Daddy managed that large farm and we lived in the large plantation house where we occupied only a few rooms. I started school at Shady Grove School and had chores of bringing in the wood from the garage down the hill to the house: we also worked in the garden and helped with the crops.My parents had grown up working in the fields and ex-pected the same from us, as did most farm families in the area. This was a healthy lifestyle, and the animals were perks for me, especially the horses, dogs, and pigs. I had a Jersey cow to milk twice daily during my teen years, and we worked in tobacco.My children grew up seeing my father farm and spent time on the farms of both grandparents. They did not work on the farm but did help my mom occasionally with gar-dening and shelling beans and went with Daddy when he had time to take them for a tractor ride. They loved the farms and enjoyed times with my grandparents when they were young. Kendra also had a pet pig when she was young.My oldest granddaughter was the first fifth generation grandchild born into Mother’s family. Grandmother Fulk was the only grandparent living at that time. She lived to be ninety-nine years old. The grandchildren were young when my father died, but mother lived on the farm until the older ones were grown.When my great- granddaughter was born, my sister and her husband had moved to the farm, but Mother was liv-ing, so Jaden became a fifth-generation child. Faye and Nick kept Jaden while her mother worked, which enabled her to spend time on the farm we had lived on. My daugh-ter lived in the house we had lived in as children with her younger children for a few years.Jaden and her mom live in walking distance of the farm where my sister and her husband live, so the farm is still a thread that runs through five generations. I wonder if I will live to see that fifth-generation great- great grand as my mother and her mother did. You Are My SunshineBy Marie Craig In the 17 years that I’ve directed the Davie County Singing Seniors, we have sung many, many songs. Since we love to entertain residents in care centers, we choose songs from their earlier years that they remember and that will bring back happy memories. We always invite them to sing with us, and many of them do. We’ve had some wonderful experiences of comatose patients arousing and singing with us. It’s been special to see this happen. Mu-sic seems to be the last thing to leave a deteriorating mind.One of the songs we sing is “You Are My Sunshine.” Quick research shows that it was written in the 1930s by Jimmie Davis who used it in his campaign to become governor of Louisiana. Further searching says that Oli-ver Hood wrote it, Paul Rice copyrighted it in 1937, and sold the rights to Jimmie Davis. Many other artists have recorded it.Everybody seems to know the chorus and sings along with great gusto. We sang it once to a woman when we were delivering Valentine’s Day Singing Telegrams. She said, “I hope not,” when we were through. Afterwards, I read through the words and realized that the verses de-scribe a song of betrayal and broken hearts, not the mes-sage we wanted to convey.With some minor effort, I rewrote the song. See if you like this version better.“The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping/ I dreamed I held you in my arms./ When I awoke, dear/ I was so grate-ful/ so I sang this song to you/ You are My Sunshine, My only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You’ll never know, dear, how much I love you. Please don’t take my sunshine away.I’ll always love you/ and make you happy/ and you will always do the same/ You are my hero/ my best friend al-ways/ In my heart you’ll always stay/ You are My Sun-shine… You told me once, dear/ You really loved me/ and no one else could come between./ We’ve come together to form a family./ I will love you every day/ You are My Sun-shine…”Hopefully, I won’t be sued, but I believe in making things happier. We really need that now with so much stress and uncertainty. Maybe we all need to count to ten, smile, and start over with positive attitudes and comments.

The public’s input is re-quested. Organizers have scheduled community in-put meetings on April 26 and 27 from 5:30-7 p.m. at the Community Park, 151 Southwood Drive, Mocks-ville. An online survey was developed to allow those who cannot attend a meet-ing to share their thoughts and ideas. “The general public doesn’t realize how much influence they have,” said Moore, urging residents to get involved. “For in-stance, our Davie County Community Park is a di-rect reflection of the needs of our community and the input they provided. If you took the original conceptual master plan and compared it to a map of the actual park you’d see that they are 90% different. The public was a part of that, and the same goes for this plan.“We can’t do it alone. We work for the residents. We can present a vision but we need and want them to be a part of that vision. During these input meet-ings, we want our residents to tell us what they feel is the best route, what they Trails ... feel is the safest, and what they believe is the most ac-cessible type of pedestrian infrastructure that we can put in place. Our consul-tant will then look at the feasibility of that input and create recommendations as well as potential cost esti-mates for this section of the greenway.“In addition, the more public input we get the more ammunition we have when we are writing grants. The authorities will see that this community is connect-ed and involved and that it really wants to see these im-provements.” “When I think about na-ture, I immediately think of peace,” said Mocksville Commissioner Jenny Ste-venson. “I believe the ben-efits of having the greenway trails, are that it will en-hance the well-being of our community and promote a healthier lifestyle while be-ing connected to our outside community. The greenway trails will be a beautiful place to meet others in our community, exercise, and bike in a safe and comfort-able atmosphere without heavy traffic. I would like to hear your thoughts, so please come out and share your ideas on this project.” Moore said that with the 2013 Recreation and Parks Master Plan, the 2017 Com-munity Park Needs Assess-ment, and the 2020 Green-way Master Plan there has been consistent support to invest in biking and walk-ing infrastructure to create a county with a well-connect-ed greenway trails network, side paths along roadways, enhanced sidewalks, and safe roadway crossings.“This infrastructure will create an intuitive, safe net-work that is attractive to users of all ages and abili-ties. Residents from ages eight to eighty will use the Davie County bicycle and pedestrian network as a viable option for short trips, recreation, connect-ing with nature, and com-muting. Visitors will select Davie County because of its vibrant bicycle infra-structure network and walk-able downtown centers and neighborhoods. New busi-nesses and employers will choose to invest in Davie County because of its high-quality lifestyle.” He is confident that once the first section is built, people will see the ben-efits. “That’s how you be-gin to create advocacy to continue the infrastructure system-wide. In our plan, we connect Mocksville, Farmington, Bermuda Run, Advance, and Cooleemee through loops. We need people to see what it is, and once it is built, experience it. Then they will support its continued development.” Future priorities after the connection between South Davie and the community park include: • Mocksville Loop Trail: A greenway trail that would connect key destinations and use natural stream cor-ridors (and the existing Rich Park Greenway. • Bermuda Run to Mocksville: A side path along US 158 connecting Winmock at Kinderton in Bermuda Run and Raylen Vineyards & Winery, the facility would change at the Cedar Creek to an on-road bike lane following US 158 or as a greenway way trail along Cedar Creek into Mocksville (connect-ing with Mocksville Loop Trail). • Farmington to Mocks-ville: A greenway trail along Cedar Creek that would connect to Farm-ington Community Center, schools, US.158 side path, and the Mocksville Loop.• Bermuda Run to Farm-ington: A side path along NC 801 and/or on-road bike lanes along local roads that provide connections be-tween Truist Sports Park, Davie Medical Center, and Farmington Community Center.• Mocksville to Coolee-mee: A greenway trail along Bear Creek providing con-nections to the Mocksville Loop Trail, the South Yad-kin River, Mill Redevelop-ment site, and RiverPark at Cooleemee Falls: “The Bullhole.” • Farmington Loop: A greenway trail that uses ex-isting stream corridors and proposed side path along NC 801 to create a loop that connects Farmington Com-munity Center, schools, and the youth complex. • Yadkin and South Yad-kin Rivers Greenway: A greenway trail along the Yadkin and South Yadkin Rivers connecting key des-tinations in Bermuda Run to future mill redevelop-ment site in Cooleemee and natural destinations (game lands, river access points, and RiverPark at Coolee- mee Falls. Connections to regional destinations (e.g. Tanglewood Park) are also important. • Advance: On-road bike lanes and designated routes between Advance and Mocksville and Bermuda Run. • Tourism Trails and Loops: Tour de Farmington and Raylen Vineyard Loop.Moore said communi-ties benefit by creating a bicycle and pedestrian net-works, and by extending local connections to larger regional trail networks. Da-vie’s trails will become part of the larger Yadkin Valley Regional Bike Plan, which covers Davie, Yadkin, Surry, Stokes, Forsyth, and Northern Iredell counties.“I can’t tell you how many people I’ve met along the greenway in Salisbury that weren’t from Rowan County. They came from Charlotte, Cary, Virginia, so it has a tourism component to it too. When people are traveling and see that we have a nice greenway they might stop and eat here, gas up here, do their section, and then go on,” Moore said. He believes greenways are another opportunity to home in on Davie’s brand-ing, “You Belong Here.” “The more value we place on recreation, leisure, entertainment, tourism, and infrastructure, the more we have here, and the more en-ticing it is for our children to want to come back, and new families to believe that they too belong here.” Take the survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MocksvilleGreen-wayStudy.For more informa-tion, contact Moore at 336.753.8326 or pmoore@daviecountync.gov; or contact Carter Spradling, Piedmont Triad Regional Council, at 36.904.0300 or cspradling@ptrc.org.

I can say without question that during these trying times we need a leader who has spent years un-derstanding how all of the court decisions, new laws and rules (both federal and state), training, operational requirements, Patrol, Investigations, Crime Scene, De-tention, Animal Services, Courtroom Security, and Fleet Operations best fulfill the needs of our county. And, all while staying within his budget. I support JD Hartman for Davie County Sheriff.” — Bob Dewitt “JD Hartman is the man you want in charge of the Davie County Sheriff’s Office. Sheriff Hartman is an honorable man with an integrity that is rare in this world and he will do what is best for the people of Davie County. Those who work under his direction believe in the work we are doing and trust Sheriff Hartman implicitly. Sheriff Hartman has had many significant challenges placed in front of him the last few years and has handled those challenges with honor, professionalism, and a strength that is absolutely necessary for someone in a law enforcement command role. If you want someone who will continue to serve Davie County with the dedi-cation it deserves, vote for JD Hartman.

A Pearls’ membership may be an individual, the ladies in a family, or a wom-en’s civic or church group. Every membership pays $1 per day or $365 per year.Of the $365 membership dues, $300 is used in the current year for grantmak-ing for projects impacting women and children in Da-vie. In 2021, the combined member dollars for ninety members at $300 totaled $27,000. The second portion of the dues, $30, is used to pay the expenses of the circle such as costs for educational events, printing costs, and annual meeting costs. Dur-ing the 2020-2021 year, Pearls had a surplus that was reserved for 2022 as it holds more in-person events.The third portion of the dues, $35, is added to the Pearls of Empowerment En-dowment. In 2021, Pearls members added $3,150 to the endowment which end-ed the year with a balance of $78,363.“ The $35 per member really adds up when it is invested over time,” said Jane Simpson, foundation president. “The good news is that the endowment en-sures money will always be available to support projects impacting women and chil-dren in our county. As with all community foundation endowments, a percent-age of the fund is distrib-uted into the community every year.”“Currently, the Pearls’ distribution from DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Rural Development Perendale, LLC: Notice of Availability of an Environmental Assessment AGENCY: Rural Business & Cooperative Service (RBS), USDA ACTION: Notice of Availability of an Environmental Assessment SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the Rural Business-Cooperative Service (RBS), as required by the National Environmental Policy Act, is issuing an envi-ronmental assessment (EA) in connection with possible impacts related to a project proposed by Perendale, LLC, of Lauringburg, North Carolina. The proposal is for construction of a 7.5-megawatt solar facility. Perendale, LLC has submitted an ap-plication to RBS for funding of the proposal. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bill Tew, Business Programs Specialist, USDA Rural Development, 2416 Tramway Road, Sanford, North Caro-lina 27332, (919) 895-3647 or Bill.Tew@usda.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Perendale, LLC proposes to construct a 7.5-megawatt solar facility on an approximate 50-acres of agricultural land and unde-veloped land, located 6 miles north of the Town of Mocksville, Davie County, North Carolina. The Proposed Project will utilize solar modules, mounted on a steel racking system which will be anchored into the ground using driven steel piers. Under North Carolina’s Session Law (Senate Bill 3), all investor-owned utility companies must meet a specific percentage of renewable energy production and/ or energy technology annually. Approximately 50-acres of cleared land will be disturbed during construc-tion. Construction is estimated to take six months to complete. True North Consultants, Inc., an environmental consultant, prepared an environmen-tal assessment for RBS that describes the project, assesses the proposed project’s environmental impacts, and summarizes as applicable any mitigation measures used to minimize environmental effects. RBS has conducted an independent evaluation of the environmental assessment and believes that it accurately assesses the impacts of the proposed project. No significant impacts are expected as a result of the construc-tion of the project. Questions and comments should be sent to RBS at the address provided. RBS will accept questions and comments on the environmental assessment for 14 days from the date of publication of this notice. Any final action by RBS related to the proposed project will be subject to, and contin-gent upon, compliance with all relevant Federal environmental laws and regulations and completion of environmental review procedures as prescribed by 7 CFR Part 1970, Environmental Policies and Procedures. A general location map of the proposal is shown below: Dated:April 14, 2022 1427139 More Pearls means more money for Davie causes The Pearls of Empowerment raise money at the annual luncheon. At right are representatives of the recipients of 2021 grants. the endowment is added to the grantmaking dollars fto award in the current year. In 2021, the endowment added $2,855 to the grant dollars Pearls could award.Pearls set three focus ar-eas for grantmaking in 2021: Abuse of Women and Chil-dren, Housing for Women & Children, and Childcare and Transportation. In 2021, Pearls awarded four grants in the focus ar-eas totaling $30,000 with almost 10 percent of the money coming from the Pearls endowment.“When smaller amounts are added together, big things can happen,” Simp-son said. “After 12 years of grantmaking, Pearls has awarded $384,012 to Davie agencies and non-profit or-ganizations serving women and children. We think Pearls is making a signifi-cant positive impact.”Membership information can be found on the foun-dation website at www.da- viefoundation.org/pearls/ More members equate to more impact.

Rivers, DMD “Don’t go to bed without brushing your teeth! Your mouth is more dry when you sleep and more vulnerable to cavities.”1299206PAID ADVERTISEMENT It’s a well-known fact that for many older Americans, the home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 45% of their total net worth. And with interest rates still near all-time lows while home values remain high, this combination creates the perfect dynamic for getting the most out of your built- up equity. But, many aren’t taking advantage of this unprec- edented period. Accord- ing to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 9.23 tril- lion dollars* of unused home equity. Home Values at All Time Highs Not only are people living longer than ever before, but there is also greater uncertainty in the economy. With home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short-sighted when looking for the best long- term outcome. All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan; however, the borrowers are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeown- ers, there are still many misconceptions. Available if You Still Owe on Your Home or Owe Nothing For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with a HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 98% of their clients are satisfied with their loans. While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners — especially in times like these. Use the Extra Cash for Almost Anything The cash from a HECM loan can be used for almost any purpose. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a safety net for financial emergencies.

Thanks to the money received through an AAG Reverse Mortgage, seniors everywhere are enjoying their retirement and worrying less on how to pay monthly bills. *https://www.yahoo.com/now/senior-housing-wealth-exceeds-record-150300719.html Reverse mortgage loan terms include occupying the home as your primary residence, maintaining the home, paying property taxes and homeowners insurance. Although these costs may be substantial, AAG does not establish an escrow account for these payments. However, a set-aside account can be set up for taxes and insurance, and in some cases may be required. Not all interest on a reverse mortgage is tax-deductible and to the extent that it is, such deduction is not available until the loan is partially or fully repaid. AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium (where required by HUD), closing costs and servicing fees, rolled into the balance of the loan. AAG charges interest on the balance, which grows over time. When the last borrower or eligible non-borrowing spouse dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or fails to comply with the loan terms, the loan becomes due and payable (and the property may become subject to foreclosure). When this happens, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to the borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan balance.

However, he has implemented a number of excellent practices and is respected by many of his employees,” said Ruffin.Ruffin has consulted with the commissioners and rendered what he labels as “one of the most difficult decisions of my life.” “I have done very little else since the day I was hired and am comfortable with my decision. It came from careful study and prayer.” Byrd will return to ser-vice on April 18 as Fire and Emergency Management Services Director. Ruffin was careful in saying that Byrd made this decision. “If he wanted to return as EMS director, I would have permitted it, but I think his effectiveness would have been compromised.“Brian is excited about improving emergency man-agement as a county service as well as continuing to work with county fire de-partments while they seek to improve and finance fire services across the county. We need someone with his knowledge, skills and abil-ities. He will direct a new department, Fire and Emer-gency Management Ser-vices. Joseph Ashburn will continue to serve as inter-im EMS director while the county searches for a per-manent replacement. Ruffin said he expects Ashburn and others to apply. “All appli-cants will be vetted through a fair process to assess their skills and suitability for what is a very difficult job.” Ruffin praised EMS em-ployees. “These fine people over the last several weeks have received criticism they did not deserve. The truth is, we have one of the best EMS departments in the state. I am so proud of each one of them.” 8 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 14, 2022 The EnergyUnited Foundation has awarded a $10,000 grant to A Store-house for Jesus of Mocks-ville to provide food for families and individuals in need. A Storehouse for Jesus is an independent, nonprofit, Christian ministry that has been serving the Davie community since 1993. The mission is to meet the physi-cal and spiritual needs of those they serve. “Our services are offered free of charge for all clients thanks to our incredible staff of volunteers,” said Debbie Crutchfield, execu-tive director. “We have been blessed for nearly 30 years with many faithful volun- teers and donors like the EnergyUnited Foundation.”The EnergyUnited Foun-dation provides support for nonprofits that offer essen-tial resources and services for communities within the cooperative’s service area. “We are proud to sup-port A Storehouse for Jesus with this grant,” said Debra Citta, administrator of the EnergyUnited Foundation.” Our communities have faced many challenges over the last two years and we have relied heavily on key community partners like A Storehouse for Jesus to help meet the most basic needs in each county that we serve.”The EnergyUnited Foun-dation is a member-funded nonprofit supported by EnergyUnited’s Operation Round-Up program. Nearly 90,000 EnergyUnited mem-bers choose to participate in the program by ‘round-ing up’ their electric bills each month. The maximum monthly contribution for an individual member with one account is 99 cents. Each of these small contributions are pooled together in a single fund managed by the EnergyUnited Foundation to support needy individu-als, families, and essential nonprofit organizations that complete an application explaining the reason and purpose for their requested grant.

NAMI family course starts on May 2 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 14, 2022 - 9 The Davie County Arts Council’s Photo Club sur-vived the COVID-19 shut-down by switching from the traditional in-person meet-ings to virtual meetings us-ing Zoom. As the pandemic eased last summer, the group moved to hybrid meetings, and in March, returned to the Brock.The idea of having a photo club in Davie Coun-ty began as a conversation between Mark Weir and Sidniee Suggs at the Davie County Arts Council’s an-nual Photo & Dimension Exhibit in 2017. The DCAC board of directors quickly approved the establishment of the ArtWorks’ Photo Club. The first club meet-ing was held at the Brock building on Main Street in April 2017 with eight initial members. The membership has since grown to 14. “Davie County Arts Council is fortunate in hav-ing Mark Weir as club lead-er,” said Suggs. “He spends untold hours preparing for meetings and field trips. He then emails detailed minutes of what members explored and technical information which was discussed.” “I am inspired when I see the photo images by our club members,” Weir said. “It makes me want to go out to take more photos. I enjoy passing on tips that I have learned from other photog-raphers. Photography is a never-ending learning expe-rience.”Dwaine Phifer of Cleve-land, NC said: “For me, as an artist, most importantly is the group’s discussion of the intentional visual story inherent in any truly one-of-a-kind artistic photo. This exploration of artistic pur-pose is my primary reason for investing time and cre-ative effort in support of the DCAC Photo Club.“The DC Photo club members come from a wide array of experience in terms of photo mechanics, photo equipment, and how to ar-tistically express what they see through the camera’s eyepiece.“The club members’ viewing of about five photos per member at each meet-ing, based on each month’s theme or concept, offers members feedback about their degree of success in executing an artistic vision of the themed assignment.“The artistic history of photography, both black -white and color, is honored and explored through group discussion. Mark can use his computer editing program to immediately offer visual feedback about the group’s suggestion for manipulating a photo to enhance artistic story-telling and/or compo-sition. This creative discus-sion is truly the heart of the DCA Photo Club.”Bill Ferree of Randleman wrote: “Club offers photog-raphy for most all subjects (whatever you like, some-one in the group does it). Our club offers something for camera snapshots to pro-fessional work. New ideas are encouraged by the group at each meeting. Also, our yearly dues cannot be beat along with a super meeting facility.Rhonda Proctor of Ad-vance said: “I have recently joined this club and am so happy that I did. When I moved to this area several years ago, I began seeking engagement with people that had a passion for pho-tography as well as a mutual desire to share their knowl-edge, interests, and skills. A bonus is that we all live in or near Davie County so I am making new friends. Each time we gather, I learn more about this area, the mean-ingful history that has been shared by local residents, and locations I should ex-plore. “During the monthly meetings, I find it extremely beneficial that we share our art, tell the story behind our vision, have an open discus-sion on techniques, oppor-tunities, equipment setup, applications used in post-processing, and are com-fortable enough to ask for or give productive feedback. Through past experiences in other photographic orga-nizations, I have found that some are more competitive in structure and aren’t as focused on generating ideas or working on skillsets. This photography club has so much to offer, especially since everyone participating has a variety of skills, expe-riences, and interests. I am fortunate to have discovered something so unique right here in Davie County.”Johanna Rutter of Cool-eemee said: “I enjoy the photo club especially hav-ing it on zoom since I can’t get out at night a lot. I enjoy seeing other club members photos and their talent re-flected in each image. See-ing their images helps me to see what I can try to do to improve my photography.”The club meets in the “Wilson Creek” by Mark Weir of Mocksville.“Window” by Bill Ferree of Randleman.

With 17 schools and more than 300 students present, Davie students earned champion honors in horticulture, tool identifica-tion, and extemporaneous speaking career develop-ment events. The horticulture contest requires students to memo-rize more than 150 plants and pests common to North Carolina. The Tool ID test requires students to know the name and function of more than 150 tools ranging from a nail hammer to the more complex flaring tool. Students competing in extemporaneous public speaking were challenged to deliver a five-minute speech on a randomly selected agri-culture topic, with 30 min-utes to prepare. These FFA members will represent Davie at the state FFA convention this June in Raleigh.“FFA makes a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leader-ship, personal growth and career success through agri-culture education,” said the advisor, Jesse Ledbetter.

He is a two- time champion on banjo at Galax. For someone who has only been playing for approximately five years, he is one to watch, for only great things are coming his way. I was amazed at his maturity, poise and talent. Also joining the band for a couple songs, was Pay-ton Brown on fiddle, who played “Ashokan Farewell” or as many people know it, “Shogun’s Farewell.” Payton plays with Fairfield Bluegrass. I want to thank John Powell for all he does for our young people. As many of you know, he gives les-sons, but he’s also a positive role model for these young folks. I appreciate what he and others do to teach and guide our youth. These tal-ented boys and girls hope-fully will continue to carry on the bluegrass, gospel and country heritage we enjoy. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to meet and listen to them Friday night.

Plan for advanced care 12 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 14, 2022 Bless Your Spoon By Stephanie Williams Dean I store cookie cutters in old gallon pickle jars. Cut-outs are fun for older kids, while drop cookies are easier for younger children. All cookies will be uniform when using the cookie-cutter method. Roll dough out on a floured surface, and cut shapes with collectible, tin cut outs. Not only do kids enjoy cookies – big people love them, too. The sweet treats have always been a favorite. A cook-ie's the perfect-sized snack or dessert – chocked full of nuts, fruits, cocoa chips, and other tasty additions. Right out of the oven – you get a warm mouthful of favorite fla-vors from a single bite. There are lots of methods used to make cookies. There are quick and easy ways – the drop, bar, or no-bake cookie. Molded cookies include balls, crescents, twists, and other handmade shapes. Rolled cookies are made with a rolling pin, cookie cutters, and cookie presses or irons. When I want to relish time in my kitchen, I prepare cookie dough from scratch, rolling it out with my antique wooden rolling pin. I have a gal-lon pickle jar where I store my cookie cutters. I get a feeling of nostalgia and sense of satisfaction using old tin cutouts. More fun follows when decorating. There are as many different ways to decorate cookies as ingredients to make them. And the same is true for cookie cutters – there are more shapes than you can imagine. If you prefer to bake cookies that turn out uniform and identical – cutouts are the way to go. Have you ever wondered what we'd be like if God had created us using a cookie cutter? Do you know people who appear to have been cut from a pattern – they seem so perfect? They project such an ideal image – we often feel as if we don't measure up. The problem is – they lack originality and have conformist atti-tudes. So while cookie cutters are great for making cookies – they're not so good when it comes to people. When God created us, he d was stylish. He paid attention to individual differences. Each of us has elements of origi-nality and distinction. And just as we are – we are enough. We're enough for our existence, and we're enough for God. What others think of us matters not at all. What's important is that we are our authentic selves before God – and our faith is genuine. At Easter, the cross tells us a story. The tomb reveals more of the story – a deeper truth. A more profound truth requires more of us. We're not to be like cookie-cutter ver-sions of someone else – just a symbol of what others be-lieve we should be. Instead, we're called to abandon all images and be transformed into the people we were created to be. God has no cookie-cutter. God created us just the way He intended us to be – just as we are. Jesus Christ calls us to be the people we are cut out to be. We are equipped and cut out to do God's work – good works. We are cut out to share the Gospel. So, live fully and with purpose. Know that you are uniquely crafted. You're special – and set apart. Every one of us is worthy of love and grace. He made you, and He saved you.

Cookie cutter approach: More uniform, delectable results DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 14, 2022 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Chesney Shook has been un-able to pitch all year due to injury. Riley Potts has been slowed by injury. Addie Hendrix was carry-ing the load as pitcher before she went down with a shoulder injury. Kaylyn Nuckols was out of town and had to miss an important game against visiting Reagan on April 8. That’s three pitchers who have been bitten by the injury bug. Needless to say, Davie was in a quandary against the Raiders. Thank goodness for Raelyn Lankford. A new Davie hero was made in a 15-5 belting of the Raiders, with Lankford delivering a performance in her first high school start in the circle that she can tell her grandchildren about. Hendrix had worked 42 innings in nine starts in the circle. The oth-er five starts had gone to Nuckols, who had thrown 22 innings. What made Lankford’s complete-game effort all the more impressive is she had only pitched one inning all season, and that was against lowly Reynolds. The Raiders are a different animal. They outlasted West For-syth 10-7 in 10 innings, and they battled hard in a 14-11 loss to North Davidson, which beat Davie 14-12. But for the second time this season, the War Eagles did not just beat Reagan - but they trounced the Raiders. “Raelyn pitched for me at North Davie, but she hasn’t pitched in two years (except for the inning vs. Reynolds),” Davie assistant coach Fred Smith said. “I asked her if she would be willing to pitch some a week ago. Of course, she said yes. I pitched her in practice against our top hitters and she kept them at bay. I put her in a game against Reynolds and she looked good. You take a kid who hasn’t pitched in two years and plug her in a big game that she knew we had to win (to remain comfortably in second By Brian PittsDavie Enterprise Record Davie’s varsity baseball team played a stinker of a game at home against West Forsyth, losing 11-3 while collecting way more errors than hits. When the War Eagles dug a 6-0 hole in the first inning of the sec-ond matchup, a 12th straight loss to the East Forsyth/Reagan/West Forsyth trio seemed probable. The War Eagles had not beaten a Central Piedmont Conference rival with a winning record in the league since 2019, and after quick-ly falling behind by a touchdown in Clemmons, who gave them a chance? Against long odds, the War Eagles turned the tables, found renewed confidence and won by an outlandish score of 24-10. In a game that lasted more than three hours, in a game that will be impossible to forget for both sides, there were 11 pitchers (eight by West), 24 walks (14 by West) and 348 pitches (203 by West). “It was a very stressful game to start with, but it got better,” coach Joey Anderson said. “It was a very good win.”WF 11, Davie 3The matchup in Mocksville on April 6 was pretty much a dud of a game for the War Eagles, who committed eight errors, only mus-tered three hits and surrendered double-figure runs for the fourth time in 13 games. By contrast, the Titans had 13 hits and one error. After going seven, 6.1, six and By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The first game against West Forsyth wasn’t the Davie JV base-ball team’s finest hour. It had as many errors as hits. But boy, did the War Eagles respond, erasing a deficit in the sixth inning and riding Hunter Daywalt’s relief pitching to victory. WF 6, Davie 3The War Eagles didn’t have much to cheer about against visit-ing West on April 6. They had four errors and four hits and lost for the third time in four games. Craig McBride (1-2, walk), Kason Stewart (1-3), Hunter Potts (1-3) and MJ Jacobs (1-1) had the only hits, with Jacobs’ base knock coming in the sophomore’s season debut after missing the first 10 games with an injury. The War Eagles were playing catch-up all game, falling behind By Brian PittsEnterprise Record In a season that had been lack-ing memorable moments, the Davie golf team found a groove at Pudding Ridge on April 4. After averaging 21-over par through the first four Central Piedmont Con-ference meets, the War Eagles shot 11-over 151 and took third, four strokes behind leader Reynolds. Anderson Beliveau shot a sea-son-best 2-over 37 to lead Davie and tie for fifth overall. The fresh-man had been 3-over on three occasions this season. Junior Colby Moore and soph-omores Sean Coates and Cooper Drum shot 38s to tie for eighth. 3-0 in the top of the first. They got on the board in the fourth, when Stewart’s hit plated Carson Queen, but West answered with two in the fifth to make it 6-1. Potts and Jacobs had their hits in the fifth as Davie scored twice to cut the deficit to 6-3. Davie tried to rally with two outs in the seventh. Chris Bar-ringer reached on an error and McBride walked to bring the tying run to the plate. A caught stealing, though, ended the game. The biggest bright spot was Daywalt, a freshman who has be-come a monster out of the bullpen. He gave up one unearned run in three innings. Davie 4, WF 2Davie played solid defense (one error to West’s three), made the most of three hits and pulled out a road win over the Titans April 8. It was perhaps the biggest win of the year against a team that had won 10 of 12. West was also held to three hits against pitchers Tucker Hobbs and Daywalt. The game, though, did not start the way Davie wanted. In the bottom of the first, there were two walks before Davie committed a two-out error and fell behind 1-0. But Davie manufactured the tying run in the third. Will Wands was hit by a pitch, advanced to second on a wild pitch and took third on a groundout. He scored when McBride’s bunt was errored. Hobbs issued eight walks, but he minimized the damage and gut-ted his way through 4.1 innings. In the second, he worked around two walks and got help from catcher Dane Porter, who threw out guy trying to steal. In the third, Hobbs overcame a leadoff walk by getting the next three batters, including two on strikes. And in the fourth, he gave up a leadoff double but stranded the runner at third to keep the score 1-1. “Tucker did an outstanding job,” coach Sam Wyrick said. “It was his best outing thus far.”Trailing 2-1, Davie seized control in the sixth, with help from West. Porter reached on an error, Bentley Moody walked and Jacobs’ infield hit loaded the bases. Two runs scored when Larson Stem’s ball was errored. An insurance run scored on Stewart’s sac fly, giving Davie the 4-2 lead. Queen (1-4), Porter (1-4) and Jacobs (1-2, HBP) had Davie’s hits. “MJ is coming off an injury and has given us another bat in the lineup we feel very confident with,” Wyrick said. “(In the first game against West), he came in for a pinch-hit situation and de-livered for us. We just couldn’t get rolling.”The winning pitcher was Day-walt, who performed splendidly in relief. In the fifth, with Davie behind 2-1, he inherited a bas-es-loaded jam with one out. He struck out his first batter looking. He got the next man to fly out to left fielder Wands. After allowing a single and a walk to start the West seventh, Daywalt got a strikeout on three pitches. A liner was snared by shortstop Stem. The other out came from Porter, who was a big part of Davie’s eighth win in 12 tries, throwing out his second runner trying to steal a base. “Dane was awesome behind the plate,” Wyrick said. After shutting down West for 2.2 innings, Daywalt ran his record to 4-1 and lowered his ERA to an eye-catching 1.34 across 15.2 innings. “Daywalt’s getting more com-fortable with his role,” Wyrick said. “He’s been our closer guy and he’s handled it well coming into tough situations.” JVs recover, win rematch against West Forsyth Coates’ 3-over was a season high-light, beating his previous best round by four strokes. The 3-overs were nothing new for Moore and Drum. And sophomore Tripp Brad-shaw carded a 40, bettering his previous top score by three shots as the War Eagles matched their finest showing in a CPC meet. Reynolds (147) and Reagan (148) finished ahead of Davie. The bottom three were West Forsyth (155), Mt. Tabor (170) and East Forsyth (174). Moore 1-UnderLast year as a sophomore, Moore turned in even-par scores at Oak Valley and Pudding Ridge. Last month he was even at Maple Chase. But he soared to another level in a nonconference match at his home course, Oak Valley, on April 6. He fired the best Davie score - 1-under 35 - since 2017, when Wesley Sink went 3-under 33 at Oak Valley. “I definitely have wanted to (break par),” Moore said. “I’ve done it outside of school golf, just playing for fun and stuff. That was a big achievement for me.”The day did not start well for Moore, who was 2-over after three, missing a short putt on his first hole and three-putting the next two. The turning point was a 15-foot birdie putt on his fourth hole. On the next hole, he chipped in for birdie. The cherry-on-top was an eagle on the No. 2 par-5, which was his eighth hole of the day. Moore was a sensational 3-un-der over his last six holes. “I knocked it to like three feet with a 7-iron and tapped in (for eagle),” he said. “I had been missing short putts all day - I was just knocking it close on most holes - so it felt good to make an eagle. I get it on (the green) in two probably 50 percent of the time. I’ve eagled it several times, but I don’t know how often I eagle it.”While Moore was the medalist, Coates shot a new personal best, 37. Drum had 39, marking the fourth time this season he’s been at 3-over or better. Beliveau added a 40 as Davie best Calvary 151-158.

At Parkland on April 4, the War Eagles breezed past the Mustangs’ six-man team. Bryce Bailey (6-0, 6-0), Jack Williams (6-1, 6-0) and Aidan Froelich (6-0, 6-0) were the winners in singles. C Crenshaw/Barrett Taylor dominated 8-1 in doubles. Davie’s other five wins were forfeits. Slade Keaton, Grayson Busse, Cooper Smith, Keaton/Hayden Key and Burke Rosenbaum/Sean Lane took the freebies as Davie improved to 7-4 in the Central Piedmont Con-ference. Continued From Page B1seven innings in his last four starts, Davie ace Bayden Hazlip struggled for the first time all season, only lasting four innings. Harrison Lewis was dominant on the mound for West, tossing a two-hit-ter for six innings without walking anyone. He pumped strike after strike - only 15 of his 69 pitches were balls - gave up the only hits to Coy James (1-3, double), Cooper Bliss (1-1) and JT Bumgarner (1-3). Braeden Rodgers did well as Davie’s third pitcher. He gave up one hit in 1.2 innings and both runs off him were unearned. The previous six meet-ings between Davie and West had all been decided by one run. The teams were 3-3 during that stretch.Davie 24, WF 10In the bottom of the first on April 8 in Clemmons, West scored six runs on three hits, two errors and two walks. But what a turn-around for the War Eagles, who erupted for 14 runs in the third/fourth innings and picked up a massive win for their psyche. “I knew it was in us,” Anderson said after Davie stunned a team that had won 12 of 13 games. “I was just waiting for it to happen. It’s something I talk about in practice pretty much every day.”Davie got two back in the second. Parker Aderhold, who had monster breakout game, led off with a single. Drew Krause and Parker Simmons followed with hits as Davie climbed within 6-2. West, though, restored Stuns ... its six-run lead in the last of the second - despite James and Simmons turning a 6-4-3 double play to clear the bases. Three walks and a two-run single followed to put Davie in an 8-2 hole. But then things unrav-eled for West and Davie took advantage - and then some. “I told them to keep play-ing,” Anderson said. “No-body got deflated. Nobody shut down on me.”In the third, the War Ea-gles scored six runs on six walks, a hit batsman and an error. The only hit in the in-ning belonged to Simmons. Just like that, it was 8-8. “You could see on every-body’s face: ‘Yeah, we’re going to do this,’” Anderson said. In the fourth, Davie blended two-run hits from James and Aderhold with seven walks. When the dust settled, eight runs were in and Davie had a 16-8 lead with the game only halfway over. “We took our walks,” he said. “We were swinging at good pitches and we were hitting the ball hard when we got our chance. Guys came up big.”Even with the big lead, the War Eagles weren’t about to relax. Remember, two earlier games were bitter pills to swallow. They coughed up an 11-2 lead against Watauga, which rallied to win 17-15. They jumped on Reagan 6-0 be-fore losing 15-13. After West cut the mar-gin to 16-10 in the fourth, Davie stepped on West’s neck. In a three-run sixth, Aderhold and Ty Goodson roped doubles. In a five-run seventh, doubles by Jackson Sink, Davin Whitaker and Aderhold were mixed with James’ single. “We kept saying: ‘Hey look, we’ve got to finish,’” Anderson said. “We wanted to keep stealing and every-thing else because (of past blown leads). We continued to make plays and hit the ball.”The game was one to re-member for Aderhold, who went 4 for 4 with five runs, five RBIs, two doubles, two walks and two stolen bases. Whew. The junior came in hit-ting .210, although he was still contributing while col-lecting 13 walks and eight steals. But this huge outburst raised his average 75 points to .285. It was the most hits by a War Eagle in 24 games (Whitaker went 4-4 in an 8-3 win over Reynolds last May) and the most RBIs by a War Eagle in 20 games (Daniel Lawson had five in a 17-5 win over Glenn last May). “Aderhold was so con-sistent for me (on JV) two years ago,” Anderson said. Davie had 12 hits in all, including two from James (2-5, four RBIs) and Sim-mons (2-4, two RBIs) and one from Whitaker (1-3, four runs, three walks), Goodson (1-3, two RBIs, two walks), Krause (1-4, two walks) and Sink (1-3, two walks). Ty Miller walked twice and scored four times. Davie’s starter, Jaydon Holder, was gone after re-cording one out in 23 pitches after getting hit by a liner. So long-reliever Rodgers de-serves a lot of credit for this triumph. Despite having not worked longer than 1.2 in-nings in seven earlier relief appearances, the sophomore hurled 100 pitches, went 5.1 innings and earned his first varsity win. Cole Whitaker wrapped things up by strik-ing out two in 1.1 scoreless innings. “Braeden’s numbers might not be the greatest, but he did what he was sup-posed to do,” Anderson said. Notes: Leadoff man James is living up to his billing as an elite freshman. He has an eight-game hitting streak and a team-best .372 average - 111 points over Davie’s average. As it stands now, it’s the highest aver-age since Chris Reynolds’ .405 in 2017. ... Anderson tweaked the defense, mov-ing Simmons to second and Sink to right field. “Both of those guys played really well,” he said after Davie had two errors to West’s five. “You know (West) is going to hit the ball. But our pitchers got groundballs and we made plays when we needed to.” ... Davie (6-8 overall) may not make the playoffs come May, but it could play spoiler. The upset knocked West out of a share of first place. East Forsyth is 8-1. Reagan and West are now tied for second at 8-2. Davie is fourth at 5-5. “Parkland is really trying hard to put a team together,” coach Shane Nixon said. “Their coach deserves major kudos. She is a Davie Coun-ty person and she is making a difference over there.”Davie 9, SC 0Statesville Christian brought a full lineup to Mocksville for a nonconfer-ence match on April 8, but it was still another easy win for the War Eagles. “We missed on another one this week with resched-uling West Forsyth, so it was good to have this one on the schedule,” Nixon said after Davie improved to 9-4 overall. “I really appreciate coach Andrews bringing his kids over from Statesville. This was a good way to wrap things up before (spring break).”Rosenbaum (6-0, 6-0), Bailey (6-0, 6-0), Williams (6-1, 6-1), Zach Hill (6-3, 6-2), Froelich (6-0, 6-1) and Keaton (6-2, 6-0) were the winners in singles. “Injuries and other things keep making us adjust,” he said. “Today we were down another starter and another one of my guys stepped up. Statesville Christian is not a bad team. They are young, but they have some talent. My guys just played really well. “I’m so proud of Slade. He stepped into his first ever (singles) start and played great. He got two wins to-day. Burke, Bryce and Jack all played against kids who know how to play tennis. This wasn’t just a walkover, and yet all three made it look easy. Zach got his first win (as a freshman). What a good thing for him. And Aidan keeps putting togeth-er a much better year (9-4) than anyone saw coming.”Rosenbaum/Bailey won 8-1 at No. 1 doubles. Kea-ton/Key and Taylor/Lane recorded wins of 8-4 and 8-6, respectively, at the other doubles. “Bryce stepped up to play with Burke (at No. 1) and they played together for the first time,” Nixon said. “Next year’s likely No. 1 doubles team looked good. We also got chances for some of our young guys to play, which again bodes well for the future.” War Eagle tennis cruises to 9-4 BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT Houses, Decks, Driveways Gutter Cleaning, Roof Wash Mocksville Auto Pride Car WashYou Thought Snow was Bad...Pollen is Next Pollen versus paint. It happens every Spring. Pollen may seem like a harmless yellow powder, but each particle has small thorns to help it attach to plants. Though these microscopic thorns may sound bad, the acidity of the pollen is what really damages your vehicle’s paint and will actually lead to premature fading and even rust. What’s worse is that different plants can produce pollen at different times of the year, though we only associate it when it pops up in the Spring. Grass, weed, and ragweed pollen can start in the Spring and last well into the late summer months and early fall. Pollen’s acidity is activated with water so rain or simply hosing your vehicle off won’t get rid of the pollen and will actually initiate the damage. Don’t be fooled just because it appears clean. There are still pollen particles that are eating away at your paint. The solution is to wash your car more often during these seasons. The longer you leave pollen on your vehicle, the more damage it can do and the harder it will be to get completely off. Also add extra layers of protection including wax, protectant, and sealant. Not only does it keep pollen’s damage at bay but also the damage to your paint from tree sap, bird droppings, UV rays, and everyday driving grime. How often to wash and wax? At a minimum once a week during high pollen counts. Though some experts recommend every two to three days. The weather, conditions you drive in, and the amount of time your car is exposed to these elements all effect the breakdown and efficiency rate of the layers of protection. Don’t forget about your vehicle’s interior. Make sure your seats, dashboard and other areas are pol-len free. And check your cabin air filter. Not only will this help those with allergies but those pollen particles along with dirt and dust can settle in the cracks of the interior and ruin it over time. Also note that a clogged air filter will make your engine work twice as hard, impact how well your air conditioner works, and affect your gas mileage. Something we all want to improve with gas prices rising. The facility is environmentally friendly too. Car washes use 55% less water than washing at home.

By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Although the Davie soc-cer team’s losing streak grew last week, there is a smiley face you can hang on the gritty War Eagles. They are not getting bullied in the Central Piedmont Confer-ence because they play the best defense we’ve seen in 13 years. Through 12 games, not once have they allowed more than four goals, and they’ve only permitted four twice. The last time a Davie squad went this long without giving up four in a game was Pete Gustafson’s 2009 team that went 16 straight games with four or less allowed. That team gave up 20 goals through the first 12 games; the War Eagles of Corbin Kopetzky have surrendered just 19, or 1.5 per game. A lack of scoring has sent Davie (3-7-2 overall) into a six-game tailspin. Valiant efforts fell short when Da-vie lost 4-0 to visiting West Forsyth on April 4 and 3-0 at Reagan on April 7. “We were down a starter (defender Emily Garner against Reagan),” Kopetzky said. “We came out a little rocky (and trailed 2-0 at halftime), but we picked it up from there. We moved the ball fairly well. We had some looks; they just didn’t fall for us.”And then: “They are working hard. They are improving. We’re staying in tight games and trying to make stuff happen.”Kopetzky beamed with pride at his three freshmen - Sarah Andrade, Cat Rosser and Jaden Sink. “I shuffled everybody around a little bit between the midfield and defense (with Garner out),” he said. “I threw Sarah in up top. She’s been very impressive this season. She did exactly what I needed out of her. She played a really good game and had a shot that I thought was going to fall for her. “I subbed Cat in a lot. Just like Sarah, she has stepped it up. I tell her what I need and she’s exactly where she needs to be at every moment. When Sarah, Cat and Jaden step on the field, it’s hard to tell they’re freshmen. So I’m excited to see what they’re going to look like as juniors and seniors.”Notes: West has out-scored opponents 26-2 By Dan Kibler Let’s get the basics over with in one sentence.Deer hunting in most of Northwest North Carolina will never be the same.If that wasn’t obvious two weeks ago when the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission announced that a buck killed this past December in Yadkin Coun-ty had tested positive for chronic wasting disease – the bane of deer and wild-life managers everywhere – it became official last Thursday, when the com-mission discussed steps needed to pass a handful of regulations aimed at com-bating the spread of the al-ways fatal whitetail disease – the steps likely to take place today.“We all knew this was coming at some point,” said Monty Crump of Rocking-ham, chair of the commis-sion, the policy making wing of the state wildlife agency. “This will change the way the wildlife com-mission manages its deer herd and the way we hunt deer forever in North Car- olina.”The commission an-nounced in late March that a buck taken last season in northern Yadkin County – in the RIchmond Hill area by the Yadkin River – had tested positive for CWD. The deer, a 2½-year-old, had been taken to a taxider-mist by the hunter, and the taxidermist provided the agency with a tissue sam-ple. It came back positive a month or so later, then it was retested and came back positive, then sent to another lab and tested twice more – both positives for the highly contagious dis-ease that affects the central nervous system of deer and other cervids.The commission had samples from more than 7,000 deer across the state last season, concentrating on counties in Northwest North Carolina that border counties in Virginia where CWD deer were confirmed over the past several years. With about 90% of the sam-ples tested and reported, the Yadkin County buck is the only CWD positive.At its monthly meeting today in Raleigh, the com-mission will likely vote under a formula for tempo-rary rulemaking to follow staff recommendations and establish primary and sec-ondary “surveillance areas” in Northwest North Caroli-na, and to adopt some strict deer-management regula-tions in those areas. Public meetings in affected areas will follow as staff tries to explain the changes to hunters and landowners.The Primary Surveil-lance Area (PSA) is an area of about 51,000 acres that emcompasses land within 5 miles of the kill site of the CWD deer. Roughly, the area is bordered to the north by NC 268 across Surry County, on the west by US 601 and on the south by NC 67. The eastern bor-der is Quaker Church Rd. in Surry County, to the Ar-arat River and south to the Yadkin River.The Secondary Surveil-lance Area is much larger, 1.7 million acres around the kill site that stretches ap-proximately 30 miles in ev-ery direction. It contains all of Stokes, Surry, Forsyth, Davie and Yadkin counties, plus portions of Alleghany, Wilkes and Iredell coun-ties. The western boundary is US 21 from the Virginia border through Allegha-ny County to NC 18 south through Wilkes County to NC 115 south through Ired-ell County to I-40 east to the Davie County bound-ary. Some of the affected counties have areas that are outside the 30-mile radius circle, but the commission did not have obvious land-scape features or roadways to use as boundary markers and instead used county lines.The 5-mile radius is the average distance that a young buck moves when it changes territory before its second fall. The 30-mile radius is the maximum re-corded distance that a buck has moved.Changes in regulations are aimed to control the further spread of CWD, and to better identify areas with CWD-positive deer:• To end of any fawn re-habilitation in the surveil-lance areas; • Prohibit the transporta- tion of any whitetail glands or produced secretions out of the PSA and SSA areas;• Require more exten-sive sampling and testing of whitetails taken in both the PSA and SSA. All deer taken in blackpowder and gun seasons in the PSA are required to be checked in with a CWD cooperator and tested. All deer taken in blackpowder season and in the first week of gun season in the SSA are required to be checked in with a CWD cooperator and tested. Co-operators will include taxi-dermists, meat processors and other places of busi-ness. Hunters will be given multiple ways to submit samples, including leaving the heads of deer killed in designated freezers located across the area.• Make it illegal to trans-port deer carcasses out of the PSA zone. Only boned-out meat will be able to leave the area. Carcasses must be disposed of after samples are delivered to a cooperator.• No supplemental feed-ing or baiting of any birds or wildlife outside of the period from Sept. 1-Jan. 10 will be allowed, including mineral sites. The only ex-ceptions will be bird feed-ers and traps baited to catch feral swine. Also, the Commission wants hunters in North-west North Carolina to take more than their usual share of deer this fall to add to the sampling base and maybe eliminate more infected deer.“We would love the deer harvest to increase for the next two, three or four years,” said Brad Howard, chief of the commission’s Division of Wildlife Man-agement. “If you usually shoot two deer, shoot three. If you usually shoot three, shoot four. We’d like to sample 50% of all the deer. In a normal season, hunters there shoot 15% to 20% of the population. “This area averages about 52 deer per square mile. We estimate the herd in the 5-mile zone at around 1,900 deer.”North Carolina is the 30th state to document CWD within its boundaries, the 29th to document CWD in its wild deer herd. Biolo-gists said they are fortunate to have wildlife agencies in a handful of states with recently discovered CWD – the most-recent being Vir-ginia, Tennessee and Mis-sissippi – to examine what strategies have worked and which have failed as North Carolina seeks to limit the spread of CWD, which kills deer between 16 and 24 months after the initial infection. Moriah Boggess, the commission’s deer-proj-ect leader, said testing de-termined that the infected Yadkin buck was in the third of four stages of the disease and could have been infected as a fawn or yearling several miles from where it was eventually killed.“We’re dealing with an infectious disease that has no cure. The infectious agent can’t be killed,” he said. “Once it gets into a wild deer population, we know the prevalence will increase. The percentage of the number of animals with the disease will increase. Long-term, it will have a permanent impact on the population we can’t undo.” CWD is here; expect new deer hunting rules Senior Profile Silver Lining Team displays best defense in 13 years during a five-game win-ning streak. ...

She was lights out.”The game started badly for Davie in the top of the first. Reagan got two hits and a walk and there were three errors behind Lank-ford as the visitors raced to a 3-0 lead. “I told Raelyn to keep doing what you’re doing,” Smith said.Davie’s ruthlessly effi-cient offense shrugged off five errors on the night. With Bailey Snow aboard in the Davie first, Summer Simpson slammed a two-run homer. Davie’s bats went ba-nanas in the second. Leah Grimes cranked a three-run homer. Two pitches lat-er, McKenzie Mixon went deep. Carleigh Croom had two hits in the inning as Da-vie scored 10 runs on nine hits, an error and a walk. “The bats were as hot as I’ve seen them,” Smith said. “Top to bottom, we’re just smoking it right now. Even when London (Dirks) got out a couple times, it was hit on the button to somebody.”Meanwhile, Lankford was an absolute warrior. In the second, she was hit on the shin by a wicked line drive. She shook it off and wound up holding Reagan to one earned run in five innings. She scattered seven hits, walked one and threw 52 of 88 pitches for strikes. “Ninety-nine percent of people would have called it a day (after getting hit by the liner),” Smith said. “I’ve coached Raelyn forever and I was like: ‘I know it’s probably too soon because you’re still on the ground, but I’m going to need you to walk that off.’ She was like: ‘I’ve got you. I’ve got you. Just give me a minute.’ She got up, gathered herself, threw one pitch and got a popup to get out of the inning. Then she finished it up. It was something to see. You’re talking about a freshman who doesn’t pitch. She stepped into a big game and got stronger as the game went on.”Coach Debbie Evans added: “Raelyn was fo-cussed on doing her job in the circle and really came through for us when we needed it.”Davie put Reagan to bed in the fifth. Sydney Dirks blasted Davie’s fourth ho-mer of the game. Moments later, Audrea Fowler drove in L. Dirks to complete the mercy-rule beating. Simpson (3-4, four RBIs), Snow (2-4), S. Dirks (2-4, three RBIs), L. Dirks (2-4), Fowler (2-3) and Croom (2-3) all had multi-ple hits as Davie outscored Reagan 30-8 in two meet-ings, including (gulp) seven home runs. “It was a great team win for us,” Evans said. Simpson is on one of the all-time streaks in Davie annals. The junior is 12 for 14 over five games, hitting Hit ... her team-high fourth homer and raising her No. 1 aver-age to .534. “Summer is as hot as I’ve seen a player right now,” Smith said. “I mean she is seeing it and just crushing it.”The remarkable offen-sive numbers hardly end there. L. Dirks has an 11-game hitting streak, and the senior is 8-13 in her last four games. S. Dirks is 8-14 in the last four games, and the junior has a nine-game hitting streak. Croom, a freshman, is 6-11 during a five-game hitting streak. The War Eagles are hit-ting .432 as a team, with Fowler at .512, S. Dirks at .489, L. Dirks at .476 and Melanie Gobble at .444.

B6 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 14, 2022 By Carrie MillerDavie Senior Services On Monday morning, April 4, the Davie Coun-ty Senior Games took over Creekside Lanes Bowling Alley in Winston-Salem to play rounds of doubles. Each participant was paired with a partner of their choosing for the Davie County Senior Games. Tuesday, April 5, meant it was time to play badmin-ton at the Brock Gym. The 70-74 age group women had a competitive showdown between two participants, where even the crowd was involved in cheering. It was a great example of what Senior Games is all about – fun, competition, but mostly fellowship with others.Wednesday, April 6, the Davie County Senior Games track events were held at the Davie County Community Park. The air horn sounded off and the dashes began: 50 meters then 100 meters. Following the dashes, folks participated in the 1500 Me-ter Power Walking and 1500 Meter Race Walking events Melanie Clark, Alice Monk, Barbara Chapman, and Alice Barnette a prepare for the 50 and 100 meter dashes; while Charles Mashburn and Dr. George Kimberly compete in the 1,500 meter race walk. where everyone stayed neck in neck until winners were crowned in each age brack-et. Dr. George Kimberly, Davie County Race Walk expert, shared about his ex-perience and how he joined Senior Games in 2000 when the coordinator at the time walked in the gym and told him that he needed to be a Race Walker in Senior Games.

Senior Services held its “50 Years of Nutrition: Celebrate, Innovate, and Educate” party on March 29. Individuals from the community were invited to come to Senior Services and experience the nutri- tion program often called Congregate Lunch or The Senior Lunchbox. The room was decorated with navy, white, gold, and confetti balloon arches above both doorways followed with navy tablecloths and spe-cial centerpieces with the 50 years of nutrition logo. County Commissioner Benita Finney opened the program at 10 a.m. by read-ing a proclamation from the county commissioners mak-ing March 2022 the 50th Anniversary of the National Senior Nutrition Program in Davie County. Finney fol-lowed the proclamation by singing.Kim Shuskey, director, announced the flow of the party where individuals were invited to visit three tables set up at the front of the room that represented Celebrate, Innovate, and Educate. The first table, Celebrate, was filled with cupcakes to celebrate the 50 years of the nutrition program, part of the Older American’s Act. This table also held a guess-ing game where each per-son put in a guess to win a container filled with grapes. The final amount of grapes in the container was 113. The next table, Innovate, shared information and ideas to receive vitamins through food. The food items featured No Bake Oat-meal Raisin Energy Balls, Orange Julius Smoothies, Crispy Baked Tofu with Al-mond Dipping Sauce, and sliced yellow, orange, and red peppers with hummus. This table was intended to offer healthy selections to add to diets to achieve more nutrients in the body such as fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin B, and more. The final table was the Educate table where repre-sentatives from the health department offered nutri-tional trivia by spinning the wheel and asking the partic-ipants questions. To encour-age participation, each visit to a table allowed partici-pants to earn a ticket to be entered into a door prize. Following the visits to the tables, Shuskey led the group in a game of Nutri-tion Wheel of Fortune. The room was divided into three teams and each team had two representatives. The team representatives each earned an extra ticket for the door prizes, and each person from the winning team received an extra tick-et as well. The door prize featured a Senior Services lunch box filled with a jar opener, insulated coffee tumbler, toothpicks, and a $10 Subway gift card. Lunch was passed out to everyone in attendance, and Finney closed the program by singing two songs.April events include the Easter Party, Meet the Can-didates, the Veterans Social, and more.
