By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record Four people are dead - two adults and two children - after a Monday afternoon house fire near Cooleemee.A passerby spotted the fire in a home off Junction Road a at 2:15 p.m. and drove to the Cooleemee Fire Department (about two minutes away) to notify firefighters, who were on the scene within four min-utes. They had the fire under control in less than an hour. They found the four bodies, which included man, a woman, a baby and a toddler, match-ing the family who lived in the house, said Davie Sheriff J.D. Hartman.The children's ages were es-timated at 4 years and another at 8 months old. The names were not being released un-til positive identifications are made. The bodies were sent for autopsies.Hartman said the cause of the fire and cause of the deaths is still under investigation. The sheriff's office, fire marshal's office, state fire marshal’s of-fice and SBI are helping with the investigation. The home was heavily dam-aged on the inside, Hartman said, and was fully engulfed when firefighters entered. They found the bodies as they worked their way through the brick home."I don't think there's any danger to the public, it was all contained to that one house-hold," Hartman said during a news conference later that night. He praised firefighters for quickly dousing the flames while preserving the scene.Junction Road was closed for most of the evening."This is a tragedy that has rocked our community and we appreciate everyone’s thoughts and prayers," said Cooleemee Deputy Fire Chief Dru Germa-no.

Bledsoe was allegedly pass-ing information from inmates to a source regarding what drugs were wanted by specific inmates, the source was then delivering the drugs to a point close to the center and Bledsoe was recovering the drugs from said point to deliver to the in-mate, Hartman said.Bledsoe was allegedly be-ing compensated by the source, and the inmate, for his actions, he said.The investigation by the sheriff’s office and the NC SBI led to Bledsoe being charged on April 11.

Box 99, Mocksville, NC 27028 Cooleemee Journal 1901-1971 Welborn right choice for judge To the editor:I think we can all agree that it’s rare these days to want to endorse a candidate, what with the political scene the way it is. But that’s not so in the case of Jon Welborn. I could espouse all the reasons why he’s qualified and tell you who already endorses him (names you’d actually know, not mine) and share platform points with you to boot. But he has cards he can give you and a website you can visit to learn those things.What you may not know though is who Jon Welborn is at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday or any Friday or Saturday. Having had the privilege of knowing the Welborn family for over a decade now, I can tell you that Jon is a husband who loves his wife, with the kind of love that most hope for and few find. He’s a father who not only attends his kids’ games but coaches their teams and pitches balls for batting prac-tice at home. Jon serves in his community by working with organizations that help children and families with housing and supporting organizations that assist women who are expecting. He and his wife, Amber, place great importance on the education of their children. And I can tell you that they care deeply about their faith and that they seek to hon-or the Lord in all they do.What I can tell you matters above and beyond who Jon is on paper. See, as a citizen, it does matter that the platform of the person I elect for district court judge aligns with my values. But as a mother, it matters that I know his character runs deep and that he will be the same on Monday, Tues-day, and every other day of the week. For when he resides as judge, I want to know that he will dependably act justly and that he will uphold the laws in his courtroom.Ten plus years, and many, many interactions later, I can tell you that’s Jon Welborn. He’s consistently driven by values and he’s the right choice for District Court Judge.Heather HowellMooresville To the editor:I am pleased to write this letter of endorsement on behalf of former NC Senator Andrew Brock who is running for Davie County Clerk of Court. I worked as Andrew’s legis-lative assistant at the NC General Assembly for 5 1/2 years. It was a pleasure working for him as he was very kind, considerate and understanding at all times and was always very complimentary of the work I did for him.Andrew was a very conscientious politician and was very dedicated to the people whom he represented in Davie County as well as all the other people in NC District 34. Constituent service was a top priority for Andrew. I had been trained thoroughly the importance of constituent ser-vices when I worked for the late US Senator Jesse Helms. Andrew‘s philosophy was the same and was very success-ful in this area. Andrew is a Christian and a real people person. He is a great husband to his wife, Andrea and great father to his three beautiful children, Scarlett, Stella and Turner. He is a capable and motivated individual with all the qualifica-tions necessary to hold the office of Davie County Clerk of Court.Judy EdwardsRaleigh Brock understands constituent service To the editor:It is my pleasure to speak on behalf of Andrew Brock. I worked for Senator Brock for over seven years at the Gen-eral Assembly. He was one of the most hard working, smart and caring Senators. He worked tirelessly for his constitu-ents and the people of North Carolina. He was instrumen-tal in passing needed legislation that helped all the people. He put together an excellent team in the office and we were recognized as one of the best offices for constituent services and legislation in the Senate. I am confident that is why I was promoted to Senate Legislative Director and lead over all Senate Legislative Assistants. It was an honor to work for a man of that caliber. Janet BlackCary Brock a man of high caliber To the editor:I want to express to my community my heartfelt desire that they support Jon Welborn for District Court Judge. He embodies all the qualities that we need and deserve in a judge.But it is the person, his heart, to which I’d like to speak. I cannot tell you how deeply grateful I am to know him. Our family experienced a tragic and unexpected loss when my son in law passed away. Jon stepped right up for his friend and has worked to help us as we put our lives back together. He has been with us in presence and prayer. He has been there in laughter and tears. I’ve seen him show the same love and encouragement to my grandchildren that he Welborn compassionate and reveres the law shows to his own daughters. These are not acts of obliga-tion. These are not acts of show. These are not acts that will ever win him any glory. In fact, I suspect he’s never even thought much about these acts. But these are the honest, heartfelt acts that speak to his very innermost being.His spirit and nature is to serve. His heart is kind. His words are true. And this is what I want everyone to know. He is above and beyond a good candidate. He is a good man. He will be a good judge. He will preside with knowl-edge, compassion and reverence of the law. Simply be-cause that is Jon Welborn.Chris CarterMocksville To the editor:On behalf of the Bermuda Run Garden Club, we sin-cerely apologize to our customers who received either very slow service or no service at our shredding event on Satur-day, April 16. Although they were fully aware of the large numbers of customers who consistently attend our semi-annual shred-ding events, the company with whom we contracted failed to provide a reliable truck to shred documents on that day.As a result, many of our customers suffered unacceptable wait times or had to be turned away completely when the shredder became inoperable. We are terribly sorry that so many of our valuable, loyal customers were inconvenienced and disappointed as a re- sult and that we were not able to provide the consistently efficient, flawless service that our customers have been ac-customed to receiving since 2014. Thank you to all of those who came to support us on April 16, and thank you to so many for their patience and understanding. Unfortunately, this hiccup was completely out of our control. Our next shredding event is tentatively scheduled for Oct. 15, providing we can locate a reliable shredding com-pany. Please check with local papers and media sources for updated information.Sue Whittaker, Bermuda RunPublicity Chair, Bermuda Run Garden Club Club apologizes for wait times for shredding To the editor:I am writing this letter to urge voters to vote for Dan Robertson for Davie County Clerk of Court.I have known Dan for nearly 50 years. We graduated from Davie High School in 1976 and we attended UNC Chapel Hill together. Dan went on to law school and has been a practicing attorney in several states since graduating from law school.Serving in Davie and Davidson counties, Dan has expe-rience in criminal, civil, juvenile, estate and special pro-ceeding matters heard by the clerk. He is knowledgeable about the court system and would strive to ensure its integ-rity. Dan is familiar with the NC General Statutes and can accurately interpret them to the letter of the law.Retired Clerk of Court, Ellen Drechsler, endorses Dan for this position which demonstrates her confidence in his abilities to successfully continue providing the citizens of Davie County the same level of professional service she demonstrated under her administration.Dan was General Counsel for the Bank of the Carolinas.In that capacity, he was responsible for all legal matters involving the bank. He worked closely with the HR super-visor on all HR matters, including hiring, firings, evalua-tions, all required legal notices to employees and handling employment matters for the bank, including complaints filed with the EEOC. Dan's responsibilities as General Counsel ensures he is the most qualified candidate to ef-ficiently run the clerk's office.Dan is active in community matters including leadership roles in local Relay for Life events. He is a member of Advance United Methodist Church, recently serving as the chair of the board of trustees. He is current chair of the staff parish relations committee and member of the administra-tive council.Dan is intelligent, experienced and honorable, traits that will serve us all well. I ask that you join me in voting for Dan Robertson for our next clerk of court. Dan is the man for the job.Alice HanesMocksville Dan Robertson best choice for clerk “We’re sending up ... our thoughts and our prayers.”Singer/songwriter Todd Snider didn’t coin that phrase, but he did use it in a song, making fun of of-ficials who, in the wake of a disaster, offer nothing more than “thoughts and prayers.”It deserves making fun of when those officials could do more to stop a tragedy or help after a tragedy, but rather choose to wait for something bad and then of-fer nothing more than their “thoughts and prayers.”There’s a time for both.Right now, in times like these, prayers are what is needed the most. Especially among those of us who believe. We can worry about how to prevent it from happen-ing again tomorrow. We can worry about hiring more firefighters tomorrow. We can worry about buying a new fire truck tomorrow. We can worry about new EMS stations tomorrow. We can always worry more tomorrow.Today, let’s just pray.The tragedy Monday afternoon near Cooleemee brings it home. Four people are dead. Two are young children. All were found inside of a burning home just off Junction Road.It’s more tragedy at once than any of us would like to think about. Imagine the heartache the remaining family members feel. Imagine the devastation to their world, especially with the loss of those little ones.We want to do something to help. We have to do something to help. Right now, a prayer sounds pretty good, doesn’t it?And for our firefighters - most of whom are still volunteers - who went through that home on Monday afternoon: God bless you.These men and women are real heroes, and right now, they’re paying the cost. They were the first ones to enter the smoke- and fire-filled home. The brick walls held it all in pretty well, but it didn’t take long for their training to set in. The flames were extin-guished within minutes.And then their worst nightmare came to life.These heroes were the first ones to spot a body. Then another. Then another. Then another.And they still had important jobs to do. Like search-ing for more bodies - or hopefully - finding a survivor. The latter never came true. But they tried.It takes special people for jobs like this, whether volunteer or paid. They see things that can change you for life. They see things they can’t get out of their heads.Yet they persevere.I’m sure many of them held their own children a little tighter that night. I suspect more “I love you’s” were thrown around than normal.In times like these, we realize what is really impor-tant.We don’t know the details that led to Monday’s tragedy, and right now, they really don’t matter. That’s tomorrow’s news.What matters now is that we stay together as a com-munity. What matters now is that we support each other. What matters now is that we recognize that ev-ery life of everyone we know is precious - and hang-ing by a thread.If you love someone, tell them so.If you appreciate your emergency workers, tell them so.If you care - and if you believe - say a prayer.- Mike Barnhardt Tragedy brings out true heroes DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 21, 2022 - 3 In The Mail Presidential sites By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise Seven presidents of the United States were born in Ohio: Ulysses Grant, Ruth-erford B. Hayes, James Garfield, Benjamin Har-rison, William McKinley, William Howard Taft, and Warren G. Harding. Eight were born in Virginia so Ohio has produced just one less president than Virginia. It is doubtful whether any of those seven Ohioans loved their birth state or their home more than Ruth-erford B. HayesSpiegel Grove is the estate that Rutherford B. Hayes was given by his maternal uncle, Sardis Birchard. He lived there for about 20 years. Mr. Hayes was in Cleveland, Ohio, when he got sick. He was urged to stay in that city until he was better. He re-fused and said, “I would rather die at Spiegel Grove than to live anywhere else.” He died at Spiegel Grove in 1893. He and his wife are buried on the grounds at the Spiegel Grove Estate. The graves are identified by a large granite tombstone. It is not a huge memorial building or a marble temple like that which houses the bodies of some of the pres-idents but an appropriate tombstone. The graves are on the grounds of the Spie-gel Grove estate, which seemed like hallowed ground to Hayes. Some of the Hayes’ pets are buried just outside the iron fence that surrounds the graves of President and Mrs. HayesRutherford Hayes’ father died when he was young, but money did not seem to be a problem for the family because his well-to-do- Un-cle Sardis Birchard helped his relatives. Rutherford Hayes was a hard-working student who graduated from Ken-yon College and Harvard Law School. He set up a law practice in Lower San-dusky, the town which was later renamed Fremont. The young lawyer moved his practice to Cincinna-ti. While there Rutherford got acquainted or re-ac-quainted with Lucy Webb, a graduate of Wesleyan Fe-male College. He not only met Lucy, but fell deeply in love with her. Lucy de-veloped the same feeling for Rutherford. They were married in 1852. They lived in Cincinnati and started their family; a family that finally grew to include eight children. The Civil War inter-rupted the family’s plans. Rutherford felt that he should serve his country and entered the Army as an officer. While serving as a Union soldier he attained the rank of Brevet Major General. Rutherford was wounded five times. Each time, Lucy left her children with her mother and rushed to the side of her husband. She was also so kind to oth-er wounded soldiers that those men began to call her “Mother Lucy.”While he was still in the army, Hayes was elected as a representative from his home district to the U.S. House of Representatives. He agreed to run for office, but said he would not cam-paign nor would he serve until the Civil War was over. At end of the war, he served for some time in the House of Representatives, Mr. Hayes resigned from that office to run for gov-ernor of Ohio. He won that election and served two terms as governor. Ruther-ford B. Hayes moved his family to Spiegel Grove in 1873 two years before he left his home to become governor. Spiegel Grove was giv-en that named by Ruther-ford Hayes’ Uncle Sardis Birchard because pools of clear water on the grounds after a rain reflected its grove of trees like mirrors (“Spiegel” is the German word for mirror.) That in-formation comes from the book, “Cabins, Cottages and Mansions” by the Ben-bows. The building of the house at Spiegel Grove be-gan in 1859. Mr. Birchard wanted to build a home for his family. He was so pleased when Rutherford, his wife, Lucy, and their family moved there. After the move to Spie-gel Grove, Rutherford’s uncle gave him permission to remodel the house in any way. Rutherford Hayes did a lot of remodeling. He add-ed another section to the house that looked much like the original build-ing. The result was a large house with a long front porch. That porch is actual-ly 80-feet long. The larger house was needed by the large Hayes family and to house Mr. Hayes’ large li-brary. The library at Spie-gel Grove has 12,000 books on its shelves. The addition also in-cluded a reception room, three bedrooms, and indoor plumbing. The most spec- tacular improvement was a four-story walnut and but-ternut staircase leading to a rooftop lantern offering a 360-degree view of the Spiegel Grove Estate, ac-cording to information pro-vided in a brochure printed by the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center.In 1876, the Republican Party chose Hayes as their candidate for the President. After a contentious elec-tion, Hayes was the win-ner. He was inaugurated on March 3, 1877, in the Red Room at the White House.During his term in of-fice, President Hayes worked hard to resolve problems that still lingered after the Civil War. He removed troops that still guarded two southern state-houses when the southern leaders promised to protect the political, economic, and civil rights of south-ern African Americans. His strong money policies helped make business and industry stronger. He began civil service reform which he hoped would end patron-age, and he appointed men with good qualifications to government positions. He even removed Ches-ter A. Arthur as Collector of Customs—yes, that is the same Chester A. Arthur who later became Presi-dent. When Rutherford B. Hayes agreed to be the Republican candidate for president, he said that he would serve only one term. Even though he was able to clean up much of the corruption of the Grant administration and was With its long porch, Spiegel Grove was the beloved home of President Rutherford B. Hayes. His tombstone is a granite marker on the site. Spiegel Grove beloved by President Rutherford B. Hayes Lucy and Rutherford B. Hayes. successful in a number of other areas, Hayes stuck to his word. He refused to run for a second term, thus, he was a one-term president by choice. At the end of that one term, he went home to Spiegel Grove, the place that he enjoyed so much. He and his wife worked on issues which were import-ant to then, such as educa-tion, particularly the educa-tion of black children. They also worked on a number of social issues. Lucy Hayes, who is sometimes known as “Lemonade Lucy” be-cause she would not allow alcohol to be served in the White House, died in 1889. Rutherford Hayes lived about three lonely years af-ter her death. Quoting again from “Cabins, Cottages and Mansions” by the Ben-bows: “Between 1909 and 1914, the president’s fami-ly conveyed Spiegel Grove to the State of Ohio. The gift was conditioned on the construction of a fireproof library and museum build-ing to house the president’s papers and effects.” The Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center was built and is interest-ing and helpful in under-standing the life and times of President Rutherford Birchard Hayes and his family.

To the editor:In my time with the Davie County Clerk’s Office, I had the privilege of working for three different elected clerks. I was hired by Delores Jordan, followed by Ken Boger and most recently Ellen Drechsler. In fact, my sister in-law, Cindy Harris, is the current interim clerk. I retired from the clerk’s office with more than 30 years of experience, so I know a thing or two about how things work up there.I believe Jason Lawrence is the right person to be Davie County’s next Clerk of Court. I worked with Jason from 2012 until my retirement in 2016. He knows the office, the procedures and has the experience. Most importantly he cares about people. He cares about his coworkers, the pub-lic and anyone in general who must deal with the clerk’s office. He has a servant’s heart.From my extensive years of experience, I can tell you that the clerk’s office is an ever-changing landscape of new statutes, procedures, and policies. Jason’s current knowledge base makes him the candidate with the small-est learning curve and the right person to lead the office going forward.Patty Harris TutterowMocksville Jason Lawrence has a ‘servant’s heart’ Continued From Page 1Caleb playing guitar and Sara playing mandolin and singing.

Everyone is really excited for us,” he said.“I’m excited to see where this takes us,” said Sara. “Several bands who won the competition in the past have gone on to become really big.”A total of eight bands will compete Saturday in the Plaza area at the Wil-kesboro event, beginning at 11:15 a.m. His & Hers will begin playing their 15-minute set at 2:45. The winner of the competition will be announced at 4 p.m. Caleb said extra consid-eration is given to bands that play original music, so they’re planning to play three to five of their original songs, depending on how long they take.The winner will play a 45-minute set on the Hillside stage Sunday at 11 a.m.“Honestly, I haven’t even thought about win-ning,” said Caleb. “We are just thinking about the experience and how fun it will be to get into the festi-val atmosphere. We really haven’t played much this year at all so this will kind of be our kickoff to 2022.”They’ll be joined for their competition by Jeff Rumsey, a bass player from Hot Wax & The Splinters.One of the items for sale at MerfeFest is the annual souvenir t-shirt that lists the names of all the artists on the back.

Arbor Day - which liter-ally translates to “tree” day from the Latin origin of the word arbor - celebrates the planting, upkeep, and pres-ervation of trees. For centu-ries, communities spanning the globe have found vari-ous ways to honor nature and the environment.The public is invited to a live tree planting and recognition of the town for achieving its 29th year as part of Tree City USA, a national program that provides the framework for community forestry management for cities and towns across America. Communities achieve Tree City USA status by meeting By 1st Lt Deborah LeightonCivil Air Patrol One of Civil Air Patrol’s missions is the Cadet Pro-gram: to “transform youth into dynamic Americans and aerospace leaders.” When a cadet joins the squadron with the goal to serve in the United States Air Force, and to do that by attending the US Air Force Academy, then it is the squadron’s opportunity to help the cadet achieve that goal. When the cadet later re- turns to visit the squadron as an Air force Academy Cadet, it is a most impactful experience for all. Sugar Valley (Mocks-ville) Composite Squadron members and the Group 4 Commander, Major Chad Hooper, experienced this on March 22 when former ca-det and Cadet Commander Christopher Herman Jr, re-turned to the squadron to share his experiences of be-ing a first year cadet at the US Air Force Academy.Herman initiated the vis-it to see former squadron members and to speak to cadets and encourage oth-ers who might aspire to be a part of the Air Force Acad-emy. He was prepared with a slide show of photos cov-ering some of his activities at the academy. Herman highlighted a cadet club he elected to join: the US Air Force Cadet Honor Guard, represents the academy at programs across the nation.Following the slide show, Herman addressed mem-bers with his thoughts on “Followership.” The three aspects of followership that Herman finds particularly significant include tenac-ity, curiosity, and discipline. Herman answered ques-tions from cadets and senior members that demonstrated the integrity and account-ability of the Air Force Academy in molding lead-ers.For the senior members who worked with Herman when he first joined the squadron at age 13, there was much joy in seeing this young man set the goal to attend the Air Force Acad-emy, and then exemplify the First year U.S. Air Force Academy Cadet Christopher Herman Jr. talks to cadets in the Civil Air Patrol Sugar Valley Squadron near Mocksville.USAF Academy Cadet returns to Sugar Valley hard work and discipline it takes to achieve the goal.Lt. Col. Eric Orgain served as NC-052 Squad-ron Commander when Her-man joined: “USAF Acad-emy Cadet Christopher Herman’s achievements are indicative of his extraordi-nary hard work and dedica-tion. I am extremely proud of him, and it has been a privilege to be a small part of his journey.”After the meeting, Her-man shared some of his lessons and advice with an-other cadet who also has the goal of attending the USAF Academy.There is much ap- preciation in the squadron for Herman’s many years of serving the Sugar Valley Composite Squadron. His return demonstrates that he is an excellent example of the potential impact of the CAP Cadet Program Mis-sion.The Sugar Valley Com-posite Squadron meets ev-ery Tuesday 6:30-8:30 p.m. at Sugar Valley Airport, 249 Gilbert Road, Mocks-ville.

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 By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record A Yadkin County man is in the Davie Detention Center, accused of trying to murder his ex-girlfriend.Robert Nathaniel Davis, 42, of Brady Bunch Drive, Yadkinville, was charged by the Davie Sheriff’s Office on April 10 with discharg-ing a weapon into an oc-cupied vehicle, attempted first-degree murder and two counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill.Davie Sheriff J.D. Hart-man said the suspect had been harassing his ex-girl-friend after their break up. When his vehicle passed hers (She was traveling with a relative.) on NC 801 on April 8, he turned his ve-hicle around.“He followed her, passed An Advance man on fed-eral probation for traffick-ing in methamphetamine was arrested again last week - this time with a cache of marijuana, illegal mush-rooms and THC, the active ingredient in marijuana.John Dee Dugger, 39, was charged with posses-sion with intent to sell mari-juana, traficking in synthet- ic cannabinoids, possession of marijuana paraphernalia, possession of drug para-phernalia, maintaining a dwelling for a controlled substance, and possession with intent to sell Schedule I controlled substance. He was taken into custody in lieu of a $208,000 bond.Davie Sheriff J.D. Hart- man said his office was asked to assist federal pro-bation officers executing a search warrant on the Peoples Creek Road house where Dugger was living.They confiscated: 240 grams of psychedelic mush-rooms; THC edibles pack-aged like candy; 320 THC vape cartridges; and 121 grams of marijuana. These illegal drugs were confiscated from an Advance man last week as Davie sheriff’s assisted federal probation officers. - Photo courtesy Davie Sheriff’s Office Advance man on federal probation found with stash of illegal drugs Dugger Man charged with attempted murder He had been harassing ex-girlfried in Farmington Davis her, then slammed on the brakes and got out and de-manded that she open the door,” Hartman said. This was on Farmington Road at Pineville Road.“He reached for his waist-band, then she tried to drive around him as he began shooting,” Hartman said.The victim and her pas-senger - neither injured by the shootings - drove to a home off Pineville Road and called 911.Yadkin County Sheriff’s Office employees found Davis outside the residence of one of the ex-girlfriend’s relatives on Farmington Road in Yadkin County.He was placed into cus-tody in lieu of a $465,000 bond on the Davie charg-es, and was also charged in Yadkin with DWI, two counts of resisting an of-ficer, carrying a concealed weapon and misdemeanor child abuse. Davie County has issued an apology to the Advance Fire Department.“We were not aware of the letter or action that took place until after it had already been done,” said James Blakley, chair of the board of commissioners, in a release from the county on Tuesday. “The allega-tions in the letter against Advance Fire Department were not fully investigated by the county. In no way do we approve or condone the handling of the situation. We recognize the damge BREAKFAST Saturday, April 23, 2022 7:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. — DONATIONS ONLY — Serving: biscuits, gravy, grits, scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage.

Bone later re-signed.Bone had written the let-ter that outlined perceived problems that EMS crews had while stationed at the department. It turned out that most of those problems were minor and had oc-curred a long time prior and had already been dealt with.“The way this whole mat-ter was handled was not reflective of Davie County values and was not in the best interest of the AFD or the citizens of Davie Coun-ty,” Blakley said. “We value the people of the Advance Fire Department. The ac-tions by the county did not show the respect that these public safety professionals deserve and we will con-tinue to work to try to make things right.” County apologizes to fire dept. ourdavie.com DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 21, 2022 - 9 This scripture message brought to you by these businesses who encourage you to worship at the church of your choice.

BarnetteWhen I was working on John’s mother’s family tree, I found out that his great-grandfather was Emanuel Reed Misenheimer. Naturally, when I learned that they lived in Gold Hill, a township in Cabarrus County, I thought of the Reed Gold Mine and decided to do some research on NC gold mines. Most of my information came from NC Pedia.It turns out that the first authentic discovery of gold in our state happened in 1799 on the farm of one John Reed near what became Cabarrus County. The Reed gold mine, established in 1803, was said to have yielded 1 million dol-lars’ worth of gold between 1804 and 1846. It later became a state historic site.The most interesting part of the story is about 12-year-old Conrad Reed’s discovery of a 17-pound gold nugget in Little Meadow Creek one day when he was fishing. As the story goes, his father used it as a door stop for 3 years until a jeweler from Fayetteville realized that it was gold and bought it from Reed for $3.50—one tenth of one percent of its real value.After that John Reed formed a partnership some other men. Before the end of the year 1803, a slave named Peter found a 28-pound nugget. It is thought that Reed and his partners made over $100,000 by 1824.Once the news got out about the gold, many people came to our state to search for gold in rivers, streams, and creeks. However, in 1825 a man named Matthias Barringer dis-covered that this precious metal could also be discovered in quartz, and that by following the veins of quartz into the ground, one could find gold underground. This discov-ery brought many more people here looking to make a fast buck.Gold was also found in Montgomery, Stanly, Rowan, Mecklenburg, and Union counties, among others in the Piedmont. Eventually it became difficult to send gold dust to Philadelphia to be forged into coins, a group of North Carolinians petitioned Congress to establish a mine here, and in 1835 mints were established in 4 Southern cities, in-cluding Charlotte. The mint in Charlotte issued gold coins containing a C right above the date on the bottom.Following the Civil War, a group of private citizens in Charlotte bought the mint building from the US Treasury in 1933 and dedicated it as the Mint Museum of Art, the first art museum in our state. When I lived in Charlotte, the Mint Museum was a favorite place to visit.On a personal note, when I was a child we used to go out in the country to what was called the “Old Mountain Place,” where we would play and swim in Hunting Creek. My grandfather and my great-grandfather together owned that property, and we visited there often. We were always told not to go near the old gold mine that was on a hill above the creek on what is now Godbey Road, so I never actually got to see the entrance but always knew it was there. To a genealogist, one thing always leads to another thing. GivingBy E. BishopSeveral years ago, while on lunch break at the local li-brary, an elderly gentleman approached me for help with a letter he had received. I’m not sure why he thought I could help unless it was because I was dressed in my postal uni-form as usual for work and that maybe I could be trusted. I choose to think that’s the reason. You see, he could not read or write and he had received a letter from an insur-ance company regarding his late wife’s affairs that needed urgent attention. He was very grateful. This was just a small gesture on my part to help someone in need. With our busy lives, it can be hard to find the time to think of others or volunteer for worthwhile causes but giving of ourselves can help keep things in perspective. Not long after having this encounter at the library, a local retired teacher began a tutoring program to work with indi-viduals who wanted to learn English as a second language. And, no, I didn’t have to know Chinese or Spanish or have an English degree to help these individuals. Some family members asked me “Why?” and I said “Why not?” Just like the elderly gentlemen, these individuals sought help and I (along with several others) was willing to volunteer my time to teach ESL. I gained insight into how hard it can be for others to learn our language and I made some new friends along the way. Volunteering helps bring people together from all walks of life. I can attest to this fact from my past experiences of working at a crisis hotline, women’s shelter, cancer fund-raiser, USPS food drive, blood donor, and church activities among other things. May I ask, “what are you doing for others?” No one has ever become poor by giving, except maybe my beloved sister Gail, who bakes cakes and gives them away with abandon. It does not have to be monetary; just a willingness to help without expectations of some-thing in return. Do you have skills to share, time to take an elderly person to a doctor’s appointment, time to visit someone in a nursing home, or do after school tutoring? You can choose from any number of things. You will be contributing to the greater good of society.Some of the benefits you may receive include having a sense of purpose and community, improved self-esteem, new job prospects, new friendships and more joy and ful-fillment in your life. You may develop a stronger support system for the challenging times you may go through in your own life. Also, keep in mind, our children watch everything we do. By volunteering, you will encourage young people to think of others and become a more com-passionate adult. You can show them how helping others makes a difference. My grandson has to do thirty hours of volunteer work before he graduates high school. Maybe this should be required of all high school graduates. Places that volunteers are most needed include food pan-tries, Habitat for Humanity, local libraries, YMCA, retire-ment homes, Red Cross, churches, National Parks (clean up efforts), homeless shelters and school tutoring. If you can find the time, it’s good to give. National Volunteer week is April 17-23. It can be contagious. Spring Sky: Boӧtes the FarmerBy David R. MooreThe constellation Boӧtes (pronounced boo-oat-tays) is supposed to be a hunting farmer. However, it looks like a giant kite rising on its side in the East on an April eve-ning. It is easy to spot. Look for the Big Dipper high in the northeast sky. Extend the arc of the dipper’s handle, and you will find Arcturus, the second brightest star in the night sky. Arcturus marks the tail of the sideways kite that is leaning to the left. Arcturus is a red giant star, thirty-four times the size of our sun and 37 light-years away. According to Greek mythology, Boӧtes is the son of Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, and a mortal father. Demeter placed Boӧtes with a wealthy farm family who had an older son. All went well for many years as Boӧtes grew up alongside his foster brother, hunting and farming. Unfortunately, Boӧtes’ foster parents died in an accident, Former Davie Resident Marks 101 Years Former Davie County resident Irene Matthews turned 101 on April 12, and family and friends marked the day with a celebration at Share a Home in Boonville. A graduate of Da-vie County, Matthews moved to East Bend after marrying her hus-band, Roz Matthews. “Being a resident of Yadkin County during the World War and the Depression, Irene is just full of fascinating sto-ries,” said her friend Sue Hudson. “She worked at The Carbon Plant in Winston-Salem most of her life and she is still going strong & now liv-ing in Boonville. She still even cuts her own hair,” Hudson said with a laugh. She is the mother of John Matthews of East Bend, and a member of Yadkinville Church of Christ, and is excited to celebrate her 101st birthday. Former Davie resident Irene Matthews turned 101 on April 12, with a celebration planned by family and friends.

Boӧtes was broke and on his own. He did all the tilling that Spring, as, at that time, all farmers worked the land by hand. Inge-nuity and desperation led him to invent the plow that oxen could pull. Word spread fast, and soon he had a booming business building plows for other farmers. With the in-vention of the plow, more crops were raised, thus feeding more people. The gods of Mount Olympus learned of his remarkable invention and were pleased. Demeter was in-credibly proud, and when his time was near, she placed his body in the stars as the constellation we see today.

VOTE FORCHARLES O.WILLIAMSRepublican Candidate forCounty Commissionerof Davie CountyI Would Appreciate Your Vote PAID FOR BY CHARLES O. WILLIAMS 14317261267651 12 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 21, 2022 Bless Your Spoon By Stephanie Williams Dean There are some good eggs out there. North Carolina provided eggs for the White House's an-nual Egg Roll held Monday after Easter. That gives us all a sense of pride – but doesn't crack the shell of an amazing tale. Good work is the stuffing from which good eggs are filled – and good stories, too. Here's the scoop. The White House reached out to state egg producers across the country to see who could supply eggs for the egg roll. NC egg pro-ducers stepped up to the plate. Egg hunters talked to Braswell Family Farms in Nashville, NC – and the challenge was accepted. At that point, the egg company was in hot water – or their eggs were soon to be. They had to identify someone willing to dye thousands of eggs. So Braswell reached out to An-drew McMillan of The Stocked Pot Catering in Winston-Salem. With a team of sous chefs, An-drew, and his dad, award-winning Executive Chef Don McMillan, got the pot boiling. From an ini-tial request for 12,000 eggs, the project grew to 14,000 and then 18,000 eggs. With a deadline of seven days, the eggs had to be hard-boiled and dyed. The feat took six people working eight hours a day. The team completed the task in just five days – unpacking, cooking, cooling, put-ting them in dye solution, taking them out, drying them, re-packaging them, and then refrigerating them. Andrew was given Pantone colors the White House selected – then had to figure out where to buy such a large quantity of dye – like gallons. All eggs had to be boiled for the same amount of time and then put in an ice bath to cool. When cool, the eggs were plunged into a dye solution. For proper coloring, an exact mixture of dye and vinegar was necessary. The eggs then had to be circulated for even coloring. A lot of testing had to be done preliminarily. Time and temperatures were also tested – water had to be at a specific temperature for eggs to turn the same color. Varieties of eggs have different coatings on the outside, so some eggs absorb dye differently. Those eggs had to be taken out and put back into the dye bath for uniformity in color. Different colors required varying amounts of time spent in the bath. Who knew what it would take to be a good egg – and White House worthy? The feat took place at the Masonic Center in Winston-Salem, where Don McMillan conducts his culinary team-building events. The location was chosen for its large, commercial kitchen with walk-in refrigeration. A refrigera-tion truck was rented after the number of eggs was raised to 18,000 eggs – and 14,000 of those were dyed. That was no small endeavor. Braswell Family Farms is a fourth-generation family-owned company. The largest producer of eggs in NC, they provide feed to the farmers who own the hens. Then Bras-well pays the farmers for producing the eggs. The eggs are then graded and packaged by the company. Braswell has been producing and marketing quality eggs – Egglands Best – for families since 1943. Their eggs are sold at all major grocers. It's not the first time Braswell Farm and the McMil-lans have teamed up. Braswell is deeply involved in good works - cancer services being their focus. One year, Bras-well wanted to cook omelets for the kids at the Cancer Center at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center – but their chef backed out. Don stepped up to the task. For several years now – the Braswell-McMillan team has continued to make omelets for charity fundraisers. Braswell Family Farms supports the V Foundation for Cancer Research, founded by legendary basketball coach Jim Valvano. Chef Don stays busy with his corporate team-building events. He offers free culinary lessons on his YouTube channel – simpleanddelicious recipes – where he has more than 150 delicious recipes. All of today's recipe selections include boiled eggs. All eggs are good eggs – and some people are, too. Like the Bible verse on the back of Braswell’s trucks: 1 Corinthians 10:31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 21, 2022 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The wrestling ceiling for Hunt-er Testa, who is 62-6 in two Davie seasons, is clearly very high. The sophomore showed just how high in the 33rd-annual High School Nationals in Virginia Beach, Va., on March 25-27. He finished fifth out of 52 - making the All-American team - in the sophomore 182-pound division. Enough said. “My first year, I don’t think I won a match,” said Testa, who attended the Virginia Beach Sports Center several times in the past to wrestle in dual team tournaments. “My second year, I won a couple. Just continuously got better. Kids from up north and out west, they wrestle a lot more than kids around here, and most of the time they’re a lot better. It’s good to go see what’s out there. It really humbles you because you can do really well in North Carolina and then go out there. Like they say, there’s always somebody out there bigger and badder than you, and that’s where you find them.”Testa started 4-0 in one of the premier wrestling tournaments in the country. He opened with a second-period pin over Julian Conde of Florida. “That got my jitters out,” he said. “I was a little nervous going into the tournament. It was nice to get that out of the way and start feeling good about wrestling the rest of the weekend.”Testa’s second-round victim was New Jersey’s Nicholas Ek-imoglou, who was pinned in the first. Then came an 8-2 decision over Landen Shurtleff of Utah. “I think he was a Utah 4-A or 5-A state champ,” Testa said. “He as really good and it was a good match.” In the quarterfinals, Testa nailed down his All-American status with a 10-5 decision over Calvin Lach-man of Pennsylvania. “It was an interesting match,” he said. “Right off the bat, he took me down. I think that was the first time I had been taken down in the tournament. I got a late escape and took him down to take the lead. I started to feel him getting tired, and that’s when I started to take advantage of that and really gas him out. By the end of it, he wasn’t getting up off the mat. He was done.”Testa’s first loss did not come until the semifinals, when he ran into Diego Costa of California. The score was an 18-9 major decision. “He was strong,” Testa said. “He locked me up tight in tie-ups. I struggled to get out of it and All-American: Testa 5th in wrestling nationals Please See Testa - Page B3 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record On March 25, when the Davie varsity baseball team was 3-7 with five straight losses, the War Eagles were on the verge of being dropped six feet under. It has found new life, a 4-1 road decision over Mooresville marking its fourth win in five games. The nonconference game was played April 13. “It was a very good team ef-fort,” coach Joey Anderson said after Davie improved to 7-8 over-all. “It was one of the better games we’ve played. We played good defense. We got a couple hits when we needed to. I let them off the beginning of the week, and it’s a hard ask to have them come out with the same energy we had (in a 24-10 win over West Forsyth). But they carried it over.”Davin Whitaker’s bat, a pitch-er-by-committee six-hitter and Jackson Sink’s range in right field did in the Blue Devils, who are second in the Greater Metro 4-A Conference. After Parker Simmons stole Sink’s catch holds off Devils; James adds to hitting streak second in the top of the first inning, Whitaker drove him in with a two-strike hit. Whitaker was the spark in the third, singling with one out, steal-ing second and taking third on a passed ball. He scored on Parker Aderhold’s sac fly as Davie took a 2-0 lead. The margin doubled in the fourth. Again, Davie’s speed on the base paths was a factor. Wesley Mason beat out an infield hit, stole second, advanced to third on a balk and scored on Cooper Bliss’ hit. After Bliss swiped second, Coy James plated him with a single. The Blue Devils loaded the bases with no outs in the fourth against Caleb Adkins, but Davie’s second pitcher minimized the damage. Center fielder Mason squeezed the last out to keep Da-vie’s lead at 4-1. But plenty of credit for the win should go to Sink. Mooresville had two on with one out in the fifth. Back-to-back flyouts to Sink stopped the threat. The first fly ball was routine, but the second - off the bat of the cleanup man - was a sensational catch near the fence. If Sink doesn’t haul it in, it’s 4-3 and Mooresville is looking for more. “He back tracked and made a spectacular catch to get us out of that inning,” Anderson said. “That was big because they could have very easily changed the mo-mentum and it could have gone differently. That guy put a charge into one. Without that play, it could have been 4-3 and then we’re fighting for our lives.”Whitaker paced Davie with a 2-for-4 showing at the plate. James (1-4), Simmons (1-3, walk, two steals), Aderhold (1-2), Mason (1-3), Drew Krause (1-3) and Bliss (1-2, walk) were responsible for the other six hits. Four pitchers covered seven innings in an efficient 102 pitches. Bayden Hazlip threw 14 strikes in 15 pitches in the first two in-nings. Adkins handled the third and fourth before handing off to Jaydon Holder, who took care of the fifth and sixth. Cole Whitaker closed by striking out two in the seventh. Collectively, they scat-tered six hits and walked just two. Please See Baseball - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record After Davie’s JV baseball team dropped three straight last week, pitcher Craig McBride and hitter Hunter Shutt provided a lifeline. The former struck out nine in five innings, and the latter knocked in both runs in a 2-0 win over Bandys. ED 6, Davie 1The busy week - four games in five days - did not start well. Da-vie only managed five hits, made two errors and lost decisively to visiting East Davidson on April 12. “They hit the ball well and they’re pretty solid in the field,” Davie varsity coach Joey Ander-son said of the Golden Eagles. The outcome overshadowed Hunter Daywalt’s continued excel-lence out of the bullpen. He did not allow a run in 2.2 innings, meaning he hasn’t given up an earned run in his last six outings, or 13 innings. The streak started March 19. Davie’s hits came from Mc-Bride (1-3, RBI), Dane Porter (1-3, double), Larson Stem (1-2, walk), Will Wands (1-3) and Shutt (1-2). East shook off four errors by collecting 11 hits. ED 9, Davie 3The rematch the next day in Thomasville did not get any bet-ter for the War Eagles, who were outhit and compounded that by committing four errors. Again, the bright spot was relief pitching. Even though Eli Webber saw his first mound action in 19 days, he was sharp. He gave up one run (unearned) in 5.1 innings and limited East Davidson to four hits. In fact, Webber has a 0.00 ERA in three appearances, following three- and one-inning stints on March 11 and March 25, respec-tively. “Eli has shown that he can give us some quality innings,” Anderson said. “It was good to see another guy get innings and show us kind of what he’s made of.”East all but ended the game in the bottom of the first, scoring eight runs. Davie did not scratch until the seventh. East pounded out 11 hits and played perfect defense. Bentley Moody was Davie’s offensive standout at 2 for 3 with a double. Davie got one hit from McBride (1-3, walk, two steals), Parker Davis (1-2, RBI), Porter (1-4, double), Chris Barringer (1-1, double) and Gray Collins (1-1, walk). EL 10, Davie 6Moody came through with a game-tying hit in the fourth, but his clutch swing was ultimately tarnished as Davie lost at East Lincoln in a four-team tournament McBride, Shutt lift JVs When Burke Rosenbaum stepped onto the tennis courts at Davie High as a freshman, he did so as the No. 1 seed. As a junior, he is still the No. 1 one and has been since that first day. Rosenbaum brought potential for his individual game that few, if any, have ever brought. His fresh-man year, there was a belief that he was a part of Davie’s best team ever. The team was so good and so deep, that a former Central Pied-mont Conference singles champ would be the five seed on that tal-ented squad. Most, including their coach, thought they had a chance to make a run in the state dual team tournament. Realistically, it would be difficult to get past the Charlotte and Raleigh teams that have tennis academies basically in-house, but two rounds, maybe three, seemed almost a certainty. COVID derailed that team when it was 6-0 and well on its way to living up to those lofty goals - but the expectations were there and were justified. Rosenbaum has been living with and playing through high expectations since he began play-ing tennis at Davie. While that statement is very true, it doesn’t tell the whole story. The phenom has also had to figure out how to play with family members on the team. His older brother Cren was a part of the winningest class to ever go through the Davie pro-gram. Burke’s cousin and doubles partner, C Crenshaw, is a two-time All-CPC player. His family has deep roots here, not just in tennis, but certainly on the courts as well. Expectations have a way, usual-ly, of doing one of two things. Ei-ther they crush those upon whom they sit, or they give purpose to them. It is fair to say in the case of Rosenbaum, expectations didn’t have a chance. Having only gotten to play six matches due to the pandemic his freshman year, Rosenbaum will not break all-time win records at Davie. Winning percentage, however? Rosenbaum may shatter every mark. As of the week before spring break this year, Rosenbaum was 32-3 in singles. His three loss-es, only one of which is a confer-ence loss, came to three players all with a better tennis ranking than Rosenbaum. And it is worth noting that 1 of the three to beat him has also lost to Rosenbaum. Another of the three was last year’s individual state champ. So when Rosenbaum does lose, he does so to some of the best players in the state. Oh, and don’t forget he’s also an excellent doubles player.

In his timeless “Tenth Legion,” he wrote about special turkeys that become obsessions for hunters – birds that you can “spend the season with.”Some turkeys become special to hunters because they’re so smart, because they frustrate you at every turn – putting you through the emotional ringer in the woods, giving you brief glimpses of what is so great about hunting wiley gob-blers, then snatching the ultimate prize away from you, usually at the last pos-sible second.I am afraid – and alter-natively thrilled – that on the little farm we hunt in northern Forsyth, we have stumbled on just such a turkey. My son and hunting buddy, Andrew, and I hav-en’t come up with a nick-name for him yet the way we have for other particular turkeys in past seasons. Two years ago, on open-ing morning, I killed “Fu Manchu,” a 22-pound gob-bler with a beard that split halfway between its base and its tip, looking all the while like the shaggy mus-taches that were in style, especially common on the faces baseball players. On a Stokes Coun-ty lease, we once hunted “Gate Bird.” A Yadkin County farm once gave up “Super Jake” to my son, but we never came up with a way to kill “Barn Bird” on the same piece of propertyThis year’s big bird was likely in Fu Manchu’s com- Elvis struts his stuff. - Photo by Dan Kibler’s trail camera pany when I showed him a load of No. 9 TSS in 2020, and he was likely in the company of another huge bird – 24 lbs., 12 oz. – that Andrew killed last opening day. Andrew concentrated on him the rest of that 2020 season and had chance af-ter chance, only to have the rug pulled out from under him at the last second.The big bird showed up in several of our preseason trail-camera photos and videos, sporting a huge body – easily better than 20 pounds – and a paintbrush beard, often in the company of another big bird with a beard that got him the mon-iker “Rope.” In several oth-er trail-cam photos, we had reason to nickname one hen “Bearded Lady.”But once North Caro-lina’s spring wild-turkey season opened on April 9, Rope disappeared like he’d fallen in a hole somewhere. So did Bearded Lady and all of her hen friends. The big bird, however, has more than made up for their ab-sence.In three mornings in the woods over the first eight days of the season, he has proven beyond the shadow of a doubt that he’s a match for anything the two of us can throw at him. On open-ing day, with a hen sitting on a limb in the next tree over, the big gobbler never spoke a peep on the roost. No gobbler clucks, no gob-bles, nothing. It was like he wasn’t even there. Then, about 7:45, a full hour af-ter daylight, two geese flew over, honking continual-ly. From about 100 yards away, hidden behind a nat-ural blind from which two birds have fallen in the past four seasons, we heard, then saw, the hen leaving her roost in a big beech tree and sailing in a long, curv-ing path a long ways away from us. Within 5 seconds, her beau joined her, leav-ing his roost in a red oak and following her to parts unknown. We made a huge loop down the ridge to try and get within calling dis-tance of their eventual des-tination, but it was fruitless.I was back three days later, in the same blind. No hens were anywhere around, and the gobbler started screaming from his limb in the same tree at 6:40 a.m. He gobbled for a full hour at me, at crows, at roosters, at passing geese, at a peacock on the next farm over – at anything that made noise.I was as careful as I could be, blinded in, us-ing calls different from the ones he’d heard on opening day, and when the gobbler left his roost, he flew across and slightly down the ridge from me, landing about 90 yards distant and immedi-ately double-gobbling. He started up a logging road to me, gobbler-clucking all the way. I matched him cluck for cluck, knowing he was clucking to tell me he was looking for me, ready to commit various turkey atrocities on my person when he found me. Then, about 65 yards away, he cut back in the woods to my left, now angling toward me. I had my shotgun on my shoulder, my elbow on my left knee, the safety off, clucking back at him on a mouth call. He cut the dis-tance in a hurry, gobbling a couple of times in between the constant clucks.“This one’s toast,” I thought to myself, quickly realizing that I’d just jinxed myself. At 50 yards, behind a thick screen of briars, he stopped, clucked three or four more times, then turned on his heels and left on the same path, clucking and gobbling. When he got back to the logging road, he decided that being on the ground wasn’t the way to find the fake hen that was tempting him with all kinds of obscene offers. He flew back up in another oak tree, and as it turned out, I was toast. He stayed up a couple of minutes, and able to look down and see any move I made – even just breathing – with no problem, he piv-oted on his limb and flew away to parts unknown.“That’s not freaking fair,” I whispered to myself, planning our next meeting.Leaving the woods, I re-traced the bird’s steps, fig-ured out just where he was roosting, where he’d land-ed in the logging road, then looked for hiding places along his flight path. I came upon a couple of nice, wide trees and a big stump about 30 yards down the ridge from where he’d landed, and made mental notes about sitting Andrew there on Saturday morning. We were there ridicu-lously early, well before first light, and Andrew cleared out the leaves and set up a portable blind in the area I liked. I marched on up the ridge to my blind. This would be Andrew’s chance at the bird. I tree-called only once at him, at 6:30, before his first gob-ble at 6:40. From there on, I shut up and let Andrew plead with him.For an hour, the turkey gobbled at everything that made any kind of noise. I stayed motionless in my blind, about 100 yards from his roost tree, which was almost exactly in between us but 60 yards in front. At 7:40, I heard wing flaps and saw the huge bird sail down, landing in the log-ging road about 50 yards from me, out of my view around a bend at the base of a red oak tree that forked about 30 feet up the trunk. I figured him to be right in Andrew’s wheelhouse and waited to hear his 12-gauge Remington bark, but there was nothing. No gobbling, no clucking, no trigger-pullling, no loud re-port and no sound of a dy-ing turkey flopping on the ground. With my elbow on my knee again, with the safe-ty off and my cheek down on the stock, I figured I had a 50-50 chance at a shot. Certainly, if Andrew hadn’t shot him, I figured he had to be coming my way. A mo-ment later, I saw just the top of the bird’s head bob twice as he went back across the logging road and stopped behind a 10-inch white oak. I licked my lips and waited, knowing that one more step in the same direction would mean a huge bird to fry for Thanksgiving.But that was the last I saw of him. He simply dis-appeared. I figure he kept the tree between me and him, headed back down into the hollow where he came from, and then I tex-ted my son, “Elvis has left the building.”I met up with Andrew a few minutes later. I showed him the forked red oak be-hind which the bird had landed. Standing a cou-ple of yards in front of his blind, it was in clear view, 50 yards distant. But sitting down inside his blind, there was a big beech tree in the way, and another oak. The bird had landed 50 yards from him, and he hadn’t seen him.How had this bird split the difference between us and landed in the only spot where neither one of us could get a shot? Well, maybe he’s special. I cer-tainly plan to spend the rest of this season attempting to reduce him to a pile of Gobbler McNuggets. He’s definitely one I can spend the season with. If either of us kill him, it will be really special, because for a week, he’s been as tough an oppo-nent as I’ve ever faced.And I guess the bird’s nickname should be obvi-ous. Elvis. Gobble, gobble: Elvis has left the building Continued From Page B1create offense. All in all, though, it’s something to improve on and go home and fix up and be ready for the next time.”In his first consolation match, Testa fought tooth and nail in a 3-2 loss to New Jersey’s Pantaleo Varga. Down by two to begin the third period, Testa chose neutral. “I took him down to tie it,” he said. “I let him up to (hopefully) take him down and win the match. I Testa ... Continued From Page B1to this point is 58-4. He has been a CPC sin-gles champ. He is the reign-ing CPC Player of the year. He’s been a part of a team CPC championship. He has been a regional qualifier. As overwhelming as those accomplishments and numbers are, Rosenbaum’s coach, Shane Nixon, says they don’t even tell half the story. Nixon beams about his star player’s other qual-ities. “First of all, Burke is wonderful young man,” Nixon said. “Whatever else you say about him, and I can say a lot, you have to start with that - he is just a really great kid. He’s a good student and understands what it means to be a stu-dent-athlete. But really, he is just a remarkable person. As a coach, the next thing that comes off the page for Burke is how good a teammate he is. He really wants all the kids on our team to get better, but more importantly, he wants them to enjoy tennis and have a good time playing on this team.” Stories about Rosen-baum playing doubles in practice with a kid who is not even in the team’s top 10, or volunteering to take his turn carrying the cooler abound. Rosenbaum will choose to miss a high-level lesson to be with his team-mates at practice. Nixon adds that Burke’s dad, Dr. Daryl Rosenbaum, told the coach that this was part of Burke’s makeup, but Nixon says, “somehow his own dad undersold this part of it. Burke is a better team-mate than any of us know. He does little things in the background, just to help the team.” With all that, Nixon says his favorite thing about Rosenbaum, though, is something else.“He is one of the most competitive people I’ve ever been around,” Nixon said. “He wants to win - at every-thing. Sometimes we play a crazy game called ‘Over the Fence’ at the end of practice to see who has to gather up the tennis balls. Burke wants to crush the other team. But then he usually helps get up tennis balls even if he wins. It is winning that he wants, not the prizes that come with it. When I go to coach him during matches, what he wants to know most is if the team score is in our favor. He asks me, ‘How’s everyone else doing, coach. Are we winning?’ Burke is about winning.” And Rosenbaum is ex-pected to win - literally almost every time he plays. Even if no one else holds him to it, he seems to have set his sights on lofty places on his own. Rosenbaum recently lost his first ever CPC match, and the team lost that day as well. Nixon recounts that he got a late-night text from Rosenbaum apologizing for his play that day. Rosenbaum texted his coach: “It is supposed to be 2-0 when I finish playing, Tennis ... coach, and I didn’t do my job today. This one is on me.” Nixon says he reminded his star that it is a team game, and that sometimes we need to view expecta-tions through the lens of perspective. “I am pretty sure Burke didn’t buy it,” Nixon said. “He thinks he should win. As a coach, I love that about him. I love that he expects to win. He came to tennis at Davie with that expectation. We talk about winning being a habit for our program, then that habit can become expectation.” It is an expectation Rosenbaum has made per-sonal, one he embraces and, crazy as it may seem, one he almost always meets. took my hands off of him, cut him all the way, shot in, took him back down, and the ref said we never broke contact. So he didn’t give me two (points) and we ran out of time. But he was a good wrestler. Again, just stuff to learn from.”Testa recovered and went out in style, winning the fifth/sixth match with a pin over Henry Baronowski of Pennsylvania. Costa, a guy from Mis-souri, Lachman and Varga were the top four finishers in Testa’s bracket. “It’s a great opportunity to see how you do against other kids your age in your weight,” he said. “This was a big deal for me because I went to tournaments at Vir-ginia Beach a lot when I was younger and it was brutal. I would just get destroyed when I was in elementary and middle school. I may have won one or two match-es all weekend. It was nice to see all of that pay off and wrestle well against good competition.”Testa has had two mem-orable seasons at Davie. As a freshman, he went 28-3 at 182/195 and split two matches in the state tour-nament. As a sophomore, he went 34-3 at 182 and placed third in the state. He followed up with an All-America effort against wrestlers from across the country. “I middle school, I wres-tled in the NHSCA (Nation-al High School Coaches Association) Duals with a team from Pennsylvania, but it’s not the same tournament at all,” he said. “This is an individual tournament and I had never wrestled in the individual before. This is one of the biggest things you can do after the (high school) state tournament.”Junior Burke Rosenbaum has a 58-4 career record in singles and doubles. Hunter Testa more than held his own at nationals.

The game was stopped after six innings by a two-hour time limit. The War Eagles trailed 6-3 going into the top of the fourth. Three hits later, it was tied. Ka-son Stewart walked, Hunter Potts singled and Daywalt singled as a pinch-hitter to load the bases. Carson Queen’s sac fly set the stage for Moody, who tied it with a two-out, two-run double. “Bentley’s been swinging the bat good,” Anderson said. “The impressive part about that hit is (East Lincoln’s pitcher) was throwing pretty good. Bentley’s been working hard in practice, and I’ve seen him working at the field on weekends. He’s working at being able to use the backside - staying back and trusting his swing. Yeah, that was a big hit, and he had a big triple earlier in the game. Both were exactly what we needed at that time.”The Mustangs put Davie away in the fifth. It went from 6-6 to 9-6 before Davie could get an out. Davie finished with eight hits, including 2-for-3s from Moody and Potts. McBride (1-4, 2 steals), Queen (1-3), Stem (1-3, 2 RBIs) and Daywalt (1-1) had one each. did what they needed to.”Notes: Mooresville (9-8 overall) is 7-3 in its con-ference, trailing 10-0 Lake Norman. ...

Davie allowed 10 hits, made the two errors and watched its losing streak reach a season-worst three. Davie 2, Bandys 0In a consolation game at E. Lin-coln, the tonic for ailing Davie was the McBride/Shutt combination. McBride was unfazed by seeing his first mound action in 22 days, pitching a four-hitter over five innings and offsetting three walks with nine strikeouts. He was cool under pressure, stranding base runners in four of five innings. He worked around two walks in the first. He stranded two more in the second and the third. After retiring the side in order in the fourth, he overcame two hits in the fifth. McBride’s ERA across four outings and 17.2 innings is 1.18. “He gave us a heart attack,” Anderson said as Davie improved to 9-7. “He got into a lot of 3-2 counts and that’s why his pitch count ran up (to 99). He was get-ting ahead 0-2 and then trying to nibble instead of going after them. But he hasn’t had the chance to pitch a lot, so I figured it was time he got a shot.

It was a good way to see what he was going to do, how he was going to react and how he was going to throw against some of the better hitters out there.”Bandys pitcher Easton Ledford posted zeroes in five of his six innings. The exception was the fourth, when Shutt rose to the occasion. Daywalt walked and Moody singled. Both moved up on Stem’s bunt and both scored on Shutt’s single. That proved to be Davie’s third and final hit as Ledford retired eight of the last nine. But that was all McBride and reliever Connor Berg needed. “We weren’t figuring (Ledford) out,” Anderson said. “He had a pretty good curveball. Shutt was in the mindset of swinging the bat early and seeing what happens. The kid left one up and Shutt wait-ed on it and hit to the backside.”Berg earned the save in his first relief appearance after making 6 starts. He struck out 2 after issuing a one-out walk in the sixth, and he induced a flyout to left fielder Webber with 2 on and 2 outs in the seventh. Webber (1-3), Moody (1-3) and Shutt (1-2) had Davie’s hits. Senior Profile The varsity War Eagles prepare for a road game against Mooresville.

Famil y Medicine DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 21, 2022 - B5 Brady Marshall struck out 10 in four scoreless innings. As if that wasn’t enough, he went 3 for 3 with a double and triple to lead North Davie’s baseball team to a 9-2 road win over North Carolina Leadership Academy on April 6. The game was stopped after six innings via a one-hour, 45-minute time limit. After Marshall threw two-hit ball for four innings, Brice Wilson struck out two in a scoreless fifth. Jacob Morgan got the final three outs for North. Blake French was the other big stick for the Wild-cats (7-1-1), going 2-3 with a double, triple and three RBIs. “Brady was a dominant presence on the mound,” coach Trevor Gooch said. “He also had a big day at the plate. He was intentionally walked in his last at-bat. Blake cranked two big hits.”The defensive player of the game was Tanner Stei-nour, and it wasn’t the first time for the catcher. “Tanner put on a clinic by blocking balls in the dirt and throwing out two runners trying to steal,” Gooch said. Ellis 5-2Ellis is 5-2 and could eas-ily be 6-1. One of the losses was 2-1 in nine innings to unbeaten Watauga. The Jaguars trailed 1-0 going into the bottom of the seventh. They pushed in the tying run with a sac fly. “We had a chance to win it in the bottom of the seventh with a runner on,” coach Mike Dinkins said. Ellis had chances in the eighth and ninth, too. “In the eighth, we left a runner on second,” Dinkins said. “In the ninth, we had the bases loaded with one out and we grounded into a double play. That’s the most heartbreaking loss I’ve ever had.”Aidan Sanders and Lo-gan Allen provided superb pitching. Sanders worked a two-hit shutout for five innings, walking one and striking out six. Not bad for a guy who had not touched the Ellis mound before this game. “He had never pitched one inning at Ellis,” Din-kins said. “He came to me a couple of weeks ago and asked if he could throw in the bullpen. I said: ‘Yeah, let’s go.’”Allen went three innings, the only run scoring on a bloop single over the short-stop’s head. “We’ve been using Lo-gan as a closer,” Dinkins said. Watauga broke the 1-1 tie in the top of the ninth. With two outs and two strikes, a pinch-hitter rolled a run-scoring grounder be-tween short and third. Allen hit a home run in a home win over Wesleyan Christian Academy, and Foster has impressed as a pitcher/third baseman. “Logan’s been hitting the ball extremely well,” Dinkins said. “Brandon can play the game. Defensively, he’s up there with (Brandon) Lankford. He can be legit.”Dinkins added: “I’ll be sending several good ones to the high school.” Houses, Decks, Driveways Gutter Cleaning, Roof Wash Sanders, Allen terrific on mound Ellis’ Samara McDaniel passes the baton to Jennifer Fergusson in 400 relay.

The games started with the standing long jump and running long jump. There was one participant who participated in these events for the first time, and she had a blast. Following the jumps, participants walked over to the shot put area where Paul Moore, Davie Recre-ation and Parks director, led the event and shared solid advice on improving the technique. After shot put, everyone moved to the dis-cus area where Moore gave more instruction on this ac-tivity. “Several tried all three of the events for the first time on Tuesday, and it was wonderful to see the encour-agement from the group of people that came out to play,” Miller said. “Thank you to Davie County High School for being a wonder-ful host of this event and going above and beyond to ensure the safety of the Da-vie County Senior Games participants.” April 13, Senior Games was off to Adventure Land- ing in Winston-Salem for mini golf. This is the second season mini golf has been a sport for Senior Games.Concluding this past week of Senior Games,-folks headed to the Char-lotte Motor Speedway on April 14. For the first time, Senior Services joined sev-eral counties across the Piedmont for the cycling event, where Cabarrus and Mecklenburg counties host-ed a once in a lifetime op-portunity to ride a bike on the racetrack. This featured recumbent cycling and tra-ditional cycling. Each biker began their race individu-ally, starting with 1 Mile, followed by the 5K, and then followed with the 10K. Timing was tracked with a timing chip and ankle strap. All results were posted with real-time scores immediate-ly after individuals crossed the finish line which was ac-cessible from each individu-al’s phone.Interested in learning more about Davie Coun-ty Senior Games?
