That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Govern-ment becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such prin-ciples and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Govern-ments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suf-fer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pur-suing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The his-tory of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world....In every stage of these Oppressions We have Peti-tioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our re-peated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brit-ish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwar-rantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Sepa-ration, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.We, therefore, the Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, sol-emnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection be-tween them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Indepen-dent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declara-tion, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor. To the editor:Last week I wrote about the danger of believing people who demonize others rather than inspire unity and coop-eration. We have been severely divided as a nation. Sadly, too many of our nation’s people no longer believe verifi-able facts, because they have accepted the false version of reality and conspiracy theories being used to manipulate us to vote against our own best interests. For instance, a well-meaning Edgar Maddison Welch of Salisbury, travelled to DC in December 2016 with weapons to protect non-exis-tent children he was told by propagandists were being ex-ploited in the non-existent basement of a pizza restaurant. People who wanted to demonize Hillary Clinton started this lie, and others. The popular chant and sentiment “Lock Her Up” was based upon the false accusations against Clin-ton. If in fact, Clinton had broken any laws, there would have been legal proceedings against candidate Clinton un-der the Trump Administration’s Department of Justice and with the Republican controlled Congress, but there was absolutely no evidence she violated the law. Unfortunately, repeated lies worked to divide and conquer the American people, proving Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goeb-bels who said, “if you repeat a lie often enough it becomes the truth.”We the People must hold the liars accountable. Edgar Maddison Welch was sentenced to 4 years for shooting inside the pizza restaurant because he believed a lie. We must question every upsetting story we are told to verify the facts before allowing our emotions to compel us into action against our own interests. My rule of thumb is to seriously question any story that makes me angry or causes me to feel afraid. Devious people who want to manipu- late well meaning patriots and people of faith, intentionally trigger emotions to upset us and make us less rational. As a person of faith, I take great comfort from knowing that there is a higher power who has everything under con-trol, and I do not have to be a self-appointed deputy, jailor, judge, jury or executioner. I trust that the truth shall set us free. John Chapter 8, verses 31 -45 in the New Testament of the Bible describe the efforts by Jesus to convince his fellow Jews that he was telling the truth, but they refused to hear him and chose instead to end his life.For these reasons, I ask you to watch the US House Committee hearings investigating the events leading up to and on Jan. 6, 2021 being broadcast nationally. Those hearings are exposing the truth that all Americans need to know. These hearings are not a “sham;”that is just one more lie designed to manipulate the public to avoid learn-ing the facts. The truth will set us free.It hurts when we trust someone and they lie to us. It hurts when we realize that we have been manipulated and mis-led. That pain will be small in comparison to the pain you will feel if you continue to believe lies and take actions that will actually destroy the foundation upon which this nation was built. Our nation was built upon a vision of democracy with the values of freedom, justice, and the pursuit of hap-piness for all. The founders did not want another all-pow-erful ruler, dictating what was expected and allowed for the masses. The founders wanted We the People to establish a system of policies, laws and taxes to allow our country to grow stronger, with human and civil rights. Manipulators want to be king, and that is frankly, un-American.Bonnie D. ClarkHarmony The TeacherBy Linda H. BarnetteWhen I was 9 or 10 years old, my dad fixed up on of my great-grandfather’s chicken houses into a playhouse. There was not even a feather left after Daddy painted it and built a bar to divide it into 2 sections! The structure was 12’by 8,’more than enough for a playhouse. He brought my childhood desk chair, and several other things from the basement and really fixed it up beautifully. There was also a little metal stove and some tea sets. My friends all loved it, and it became our neighborhood hangout when we played inside. When we did play in it, one of our favorite games was school. Often, I pretended to be the teacher and gave my friends work to do. Several of our Church Street neighbors were teachers whom I admired. When my mother’s sister became a teacher, I knew that I definitely wanted to follow in her footsteps.Eventually I studied at “Fair Catawba” where I ma-jored in English and history and took just enough educa-tion courses to get my teacher certification. I’m here to tell you that student teaching at Cannon Junior High School in Kannapolis almost changed my mind about teaching, but it was among the factors that led me to grad school at the University of Tennessee, where I was a graduate assis-tant—a free ride. In the spring of 1965, I received both my MA degree and my MRS.We moved to Charlotte where I was an English instruc-tor for 8 years first at Winthrop and then Queens Colleges back when all of the students were girls. After we moved to Fayetteville, I took a position as a teacher at Pine Forest Senior High School. You can only imagine what a shock it was! However, once I learned the ropes, I realized that public school was my true passion and my opportunity to make a difference in the lives of my students. I truly loved those kids and believe they loved me. As things happen, I only had 2 years with them because my son was born in 1975, and I was fortunate enough to be able to stay home with him until he started school.By then we were back at home in Mocksville, where I did some substitute teaching and because there was not a vacancy in the English department at the high school, took a job as an elementary 4-5 Academically Gifted teacher. As things turned out, I loved that work and kept that same job for 21 years, retiring in 2003 at the age of 62.Teaching was a wonderful, rewarding career in every way except financially!! If ever I felt discouraged, I would remember what Henry Adams said about teachers: “A teacher affects eternity. He never knows where his influ-ence stops.” Berry PickingBy E. BishopSeveral years ago, I purchased this iconic summer berry picking scene to hang in my dining room. Many of you probably have seen it. The peasant dressed women are holding hands, and children are all merrily strolling along a dirt path with buckets in hand, some picking flowers along the way and a boy carrying a fishing pole. The scene evokes many childhood memories; I hate the thought of re-placing it. In reality, though, there was not much glamour in berry picking. In late June or early July, blackberries are ready to be picked; you pray it has rained enough to make them big and plump because these will fill the buckets up much quicker. Our mother would make us girls get up early, powder us down with baby powder from head to toe, make sure we wore long sleeved shirts and long pants, with shoes or boots on, of course, and a straw hat. She would carry the hoe and off we would go to the berry patches around the pastures on our farm. Think about it, we had free food in the wild if we could beat the deer and birds to it. The berry patches always seemed to have mysteri-ous paths tunneling through the bushes and holes in the ground, and those June bugs flying all around. The best berries always seemed just a little out of reach, but I would try anyway and usually ended up dropping those. We were always on the lookout for snakes; they like berries too. When we had our buckets full, or Mother had all she could take, we headed home with purple fingers and scratches all over from the briars. Next, a body search for ticks and hopes that those chiggers didn’t cling to your unmention-able parts.Many summers, might I add that during the hottest part of the year, a lot of berries were picked to be put up for the winter in our household. No air conditioning anywhere either for the canning process. Was it worth it? You bet. Winters were richer with a little cobbler or jam or just a piece of our Mother’s homemade light bread sopped in blackberry juice. Today, I still go out and pick wild berries around our house and have even planted some thornless ones. It is good for my southern soul; but believe me, I would not pick them for just anybody. I’m willing to share two favorite recipes though. Blackberry lemonade—3/4 c white sugar, 4 1/2 c water(divided), 1 c berries, 2 Tablespoons white sugar, 1 c lemon juice. Heat 3/4 c sugar & 1/2 c water over medium heat. Cook & stir until sugar dissolved; let cool. Place berries & 2 tablespoons sugar in blender until smooth; combine simple syrup, blended berries, 4 c water & lemon juice. Place fine-mesh sieve over a pitcher and pour lem-onade into pitcher; discard solids. Serve over ice.Love You Momma Gail for sharing your blackberry cob-bler recipe. I will pick them for you anytime! 1 cup sugar, 1 cup Self-rising flour, 1 cup milk. Mix flour & sugar, add milk. Add sugar to blackberries according to sweetness desired & stir. Put 1 stick butter in deep casserole dish & put in oven at 350 degrees. When butter is melted, pour in dough mixture, then pour on Blackberries; don’t stir. Bake 1 hour. Enjoy. DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 30, 2022 - 3 Presidential sites By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise The city, Staunton, Va., where Woodrow Wilson, the 28th President of the United States was born, is only 233.3 miles from Mocksville. Wilson’s father was a Presbyterian preacher so the family lived in the mansed at 24 N. Coalter St. It was in that house that Woodrow was born in 1856. After Mr. Wilson’s death in 1924, his widow bought his birthplace house. She enabled the Woodrow Wil-son Birthplace Foundation to acquire the property and open it to the public. Only about ten percent of the fur-niture and other items in the house belonged to the Wil-son family, but everything in the house is of the peri-od when the Wilson family lived there. Many of the items were donated by the people in Staunton. The house is administered by the Woodrow Wilson Birth-place Foundation, 540-885-0897.The tour of the birth-place property begins at the museum, with seven galleries which trace the places Woodrow Wilson lived during his life. The most interesting item there may be Mr. Wilson’s 1919 Pierce-Arrow automobile. After visiting the muse-um, the visitor moves to the manse, which is a two-story brick building. The Wilson family took their furni-ture with them when they moved to Georgia, but the Birthplace Foundation has been able to get some items that belonged to the Wil-sons, including: Mrs. Wil-son’s French-made guitar with mother-of-pearl inlay; a melodeon; a rococo style rocking chair, which was used by Woodrow’s father; a silver tea service, which was a gift to the Wilsons; and the pastor’s walking cane. The nursery is on the second floor. The crib used by the Wilson children is there as is their rocking chair.The Wilson family moved on from Staunton to Augusta, Ga., and it was there that Wilson ex-perienced the tragedy of the Civil War. That house where the Wilsons lived in Augusta is administered by Historic Augusta, Inc. That house is open for tours and it is furnished as it was when the Wilsons lived there. The telephone number at the Woodrow Wilson Boyhood Home is 706-724-0436. Being a Presbyterian preacher meant that the Wilson family moved a number of times. From Augusta, they moved to Columbia, S.C. The house at 1705 Hamp-ton St. was home to the family for 12 years, the only house that Woodrow’s father ever owned. It is also open for tours and can be reached at 803-252-1770.After graduating from Princeton University, Wil-son went to the University of Virginia Law School. He dropped out of that school, studied law on his own, and passed the Georgia Bar exam in 1882. He set up a law office in Atlanta, Ga. Probably the best thing that happened to Woodrow in Georgia was meeting Ellen Axson, the charming lady who became his wife. Wilson decided that he wanted to teach instead of practicing law. The Wilson family lived in a number of places where Mr. Wilson taught before he became a professor at Princeton and finally the President of that prestigious university. While serving as Pres-ident of Princeton, Wilson was asked by the Dem-ocratic leaders of New Jersey to become the Democratic candidate for governor. Wilson agreed and won. He and his fam-ily moved to the gover-nor’s mansion. He was a successful governor, and, in 1912, he was chosen as the Democratic candidate for President. Just over a year after the family moved to the White House, Ellen Axon Wilson died. Presi-dent Wilson, who seemed to need female support to function, was distraught. Several months later he met Edith Galt. Edith gave Woodrow the support he needed, and he fell deeply in love with her. Woodrow Wilson and Edith Galt were married just over a year af-ter Ellen Wilson died. Edith and Woodrow worked as a team throughout the rest of his first term and through his second term.After leaving the White House, Woodrow and Edith Wilson moved to the house on Embassy Row at 2340 S St., N.W. in Washington. They lived in that five-story town house for the rest of their lives. The former President of the United States, Wood-row Wilson, died at the S Street house in 1924. His wife, Edith, continued to live there until her death in 1961. The former president, Wilson, was buried on the grounds of the National Cathedral in Washington, the only president to date to be buried within the city of Washington. Edith Galt Wilson was buried beside her husband.The Wilson’s S Street house is one of the most interesting presidential abodes because it looks like the Wilsons just left to go on an errand. Their belong- ings appear to be where they left them. Edith Wil-son devised the house to the National Trust for Historic Preservation, which admin-isters it as a house museum.A tour of the S Street house begins in a place the Mr. Wilson referred to as “the dugout.” That is where the former president checked his mail. The room also has several interesting pictures of the president’s former homes. Next visitors go upstairs to the drawing room on the second floor. There are por-celain plates in a cupboard in that room which were presented to the Wilsons in 1919 by the King and Queen of Belgium. The pia-no used by Wilson daughter is in this room and the list goes on. In the library one can almost see Mr. Wilson sitting in his black leather chair, which was his favor-ite place to spend his time. There is a display chest in the library filled with items that the Wilsons considered treasures. There is also a solarium on that floor which was a pleasant place to rest before there was air-conditioning because the windows could be opened to allow breezes to blow through. From the solarium, the family could move to the formal dining room. Food was brought up to the dining room by a dumbwaiter from the kitch-en. Another flight of steps takes a person to the third floor. There are portraits of Mr. Wilson’s first wife, El- len, and his three daughters in the third floor hallway. Mrs. Edith Wilson’s bed-room is on that floor where her sewing machine is near the window. The visitor can see Mrs. Wilson’s clothes hanging in her closet. Be-side her room is Mr. Wil-son’s bedroom. The bed in which he died is a repro-duction of the Lincoln bed at the White House. The desk Wilson used when he was President of Princeton University is in that room and there are items given to the Wilsons which they valued in that and all of the other rooms. There is a cedar closet which holds Mr. Wilson’s clothes. Off Mr. Wilson’s room was a sleeping porch which pro-vided comfort on hot nights before air conditioning be-came available. There is a fourth floor in the house is not open to visitors. The laundry and servants’ rooms were on that floor. From the third floor, visitors go down the back stairs to the butler’s pantry and to the kitchen. The large cast iron stove is the most memorable item in the kitchen—that stove is large, very large. There is also an old refrigerator with the motor in a globe on the top, which was one of the first models.The Benbows in their book, “Cabins, Cottages, and Mansions,” says: “By touring this house, visitors can learn much about the time period in which Pres-ident Wilson spent his re-tirement. It also illustrates a great deal about the public career and private life of one of American’s most influen-tial politicians and states-men who helped establish the status of the United States as a world power and also advanced the cause of peace on the heels of a dev-astating war.” Woodrow Wilson’s 1919 Pierce-Arrow is on dis- play at his birthplace museum in Staunton, Va.

Show-ing the “Thank a Vet” discount card would be a requirement to qualify for any discount or incen-tive provided. “This program is a great way to incentivize military personnel to re-cord their DD-214 forms plus it gives your busi-ness some countywide free advertisement with the anticipation that the veterans (and their fami-lies) will visit your place of business, buy local goods, and use local ser-vices,” said Kelly Fun-derburk, Davie’s register of deeds. Discounts may be a certain percentage off the total sale, a specific monetary amount off, or some sort of free item to the veteran. Enrollment will be ongoing; a 30-day notice will be required to withdraw from the pro-gram. If a business is already offering some sort of dis-count to veterans, they can complete the form and return it to the regis-ter of deeds office so their name will appear on the list of participating busi-nesses.

Inside a sewer, fats, oils and grease change to a plaster-like consistency and can block the pipes, causing an overflow of untreated wastewater. At home, you can dispose of normal cooking oil and grease by putting it in a container as part of your solid waste rather than through your sink and plumbing drain. Wiping and scraping pots, pans and other utensils before washing them are important steps in proper grease disposal. If your business generates waste grease, fats or oil, you should have a grease interception system that works effectively. A company that recycles fats, oils and grease should regularly clean out the grease trap.

I’m not talking about Winston Salem or Salisbury - I am referring to beautiful downtown Mocksville. There are so many things going on this summer in town. Tami Langdon and the Downtown Merchants Group have put together a fabulous list of activities and events that will keep you as busy and engaged as you want to be. There will be movies shown in the evening at the Main Street Park, a farmers market every Wednesday in the former Mocksville Police Department parking lot, along with several concerts on the square. Tami has planned a “Wacky Water Event” for the kids and the Downtown Merchants group have put together a “Fairy Walk” later in the summer . Don’t forget about the Cruise-In on the first Monday of the month which brings old cars and car enthusiasts from all over to our downtown. Please refer to the Town of Mocksville website or Facebook page for dates and times. Several of our restaurants in Mocksville will be hosting live music throughout the summer months. I have already had the pleasure of just happening upon some of our local artists in town as I have gone out to eat. Even if you choose to eat at home - come out afterward and enjoy live music in the evening on Friday nights at The Station. I am looking forward to the day when all of our restaurants are back to full staff and operating on a regular schedule again. With gas prices being so high - it is nice to know that we can stay local and support our local businesses. When you are looking for activities for your kids this summer- check out Cognition and the Davie County Public Library. They both have many offerings for children throughout the summer break. If you do happen to wander out of the city limits - you may want to stop by the Davie Community Park and take in a concert or cool off at the splash pad. If you happen to be heading up Highway 158, drop in at Raylen Vineyards - they have live music frequently and the evening sunset is beautiful from that location. William J. Marklin, III Mayor, Town of Mocksville Manager’s Corner Full Time Firefighters for Mocksville Fire Department The Town of Mocksville and Davie County have a long and proud tradition of volunteer fire departments serving our communities. These dedicated men and women generously give their time and talent to preserve life and safeguard property. This tradition was possible in larger towns because people worked where they lived and businesses allowed volunteer firefighters to leave work when duty called. Over the years, our community has changed and the volunteer service has changed as well. Most people who live in Mocksville now commute to jobs outside the Town or county. Volunteers are now required to complete hundreds of hours of training each year to maintain their certification. These changes have resulted in a drastic drop in the number of new volunteers. This decline led to a need for part-time firefighters to staff the Mocksville fire station around 10 years ago. The firefighters who work part-time for Mocksville also work full-time with other fire departments. Even with the addition of part-time firefighters, there were many times during the year when there was no coverage available and this increased response times. The statistics are clear that minutes matter when responding to a medical call, serious traffic accident with injuries or a structure fire. The Board of Commissioners recognized this community safety issue and included six full-time firefighters in the 2022-2023 budget unanimously passed on June 7, 2022. The Town is now in the process of advertising these positions. There will be an intensive testing and selection process over the next few months to choose the most qualified and experienced firefighters available. The new firefighters will be in training for a month before they are released to work at the station. We expect full-time 24-hour coverage to begin around November 2022.The Town has also applied for a grant that would pay the salaries of six additional full-time firefighters for three years and will receive notification by the end of 2022 if the $1.2 million grant is approved. The cost of the six full-time firefighters included in the 2022-2023 budget is being paid for through the growth of our tax base, savings generated by our contract with Davie County Sheriff’s Office for law enforcement and an extra allocation of funding for fire services approved by the Davie County Board of Commissioners. No taxes or fees were increased to provide this community safety enhancement. Kenneth W.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 30, 2022 - 7 Continued From Page 2 When Hope DimsBy Stephanie Williams DeanNews of country music singer Naomi Judd's death shocked the world – it certainly rocked mine. As breaking news reports reverberated across the country, our mouths dropped open – our gasps were audible. Tears ran down my face. I took the news hard. We all thought the same thing; How could Naomi Judd kill herself? Naomi's death hit way too close to home. The Judds were a favorite country music duo of mine. Being from Nashville, I felt a special kindred to Naomi and Wynonna – they were household names. The mourning of Naomi Judd wasn't surprising – the iconic star shared so much of herself in an attempt to help others. Naomi opened up about her music, life, and pas-sions as if she were a best friend to each of us. She shared her most difficult struggles. Naomi took us on a journey to the darkest corners of her mind, voicing her deepest, most intimate, secret thoughts. She shared the voices in her head that spoke to her daily – the words that would ultimately break her. I'm not good enough. I'm not loved. Naomi's struggle with mental illness was real. Another in a string of high-profile suicides. Again, we ask ourselves the same questions – how could someone who seemingly had everything end it all? Why would someone so success-ful want to kill themselves? How could someone so beau-tiful do that? Naomi Judd was kind. She had beauty, talent, and success – and was bright. She appeared to be living the dream. Then Naomi opened up and shared with the world that her glamorous life wasn't really how it appeared. Deep down – we know life's never the way some folks like to make their lives out to be. Everyone has a stronghold Renegade .. in life– some holds are tighter than others. That stronghold strangles the life out of many. And one day, their voices are quietened – forever. Each one of us is broken in our own way. Like Naomi, our little inner voice whispers, "no one really loves me," or "I am all alone," and "I'm not good enough." We hear the same voices. The common thread begs us to look at ourselves more closely. Could that actu-ally happen to me one day? I have a friend from high school – and both her father and sister committed suicide. One day, she confided, "Some-times I wonder if a switch will flip, and I'll end up doing the same thing." What a scary thought to confront. We might never fully understand what trips the trigger – what brings good people to the brink of taking their life. Often, it comes without warning. We're all fighting a battle – I don't know yours, and you don't know mine. We don't share our conflicts as intimately as Naomi Judd shared hers. But I know that when we have struggles, one of the best places to go is to your Bible. You will find words of God's grace and wisdom in the scrip-tures. And pray – there's true power in prayer. And when you don't know where to turn, seek the counsel of mature believers. Mental illness is a fierce opponent. The power of the mind is strong enough to trick us into believing things that are not true. The truth is – in God's eyes, each one of us is worthy. And God is omnipotent – the only all-powerful One whose opinion matters. And you have been redeemed. When you tell yourself that no one loves you– know, with-out a doubt, you are not alone, and God loves you. And if that voice says you're not good enough – know that God created you just as you are – and you are worthy in His eyes. Every person is worthy in the eyes of God. Sometimes, our thoughts can be overpowering. If you are in emotional distress or suicidal crisis, 988 is the new three-digit dialing code that will route you to the Nation-al Suicide Prevention Lifeline network. The code will be available in the United States starting July 16, 2022. The current phone number is 1-800-273-8255 and will still be available after 988 has been launched.

As a family we have decided to CLOSE the Village Inn Pizza location in Mocksville With a career of over 40 years, for me spanning 6 decades, and another 50 years more in my family in 3 different decades together as well, there are a lot of family members we have made and I can’t possibly mention everyone here but I do need to mention a few. Mr. Lewis Cline who taught me everything I know about customer service and making art not pizza. Jimmy Kyles and all the gang, from being an orthopedic surgeon cutting a cast off, or strawberry daiquiri night, or just cooking burg- ers out back. It was always dinner and a show at the pizza parlor. Wow what memories — so thanks guys! 1990’s the change from Wildman to Bossman was a name only. We all worked the trenches together side by side like family. Wildfire, Renee, PSP Mike Parr and Dale Tolbert we were the best then and we could still be just that. Thanks everybody that worked with us! With the move to Salisbury in 2000 we took 2 stores as a family but could save only one from being closed. But after 16 years we had a heck of a run. Thanks to all of our huge family still there especially Miles, Keenan and Hayes Smith and their family. We would have never made it through without their extreme kindness and generos- ity in our time of extreme need! Thanks guys we love you!! The opportunity came up in 2019 for our family to open the Mocksville location but that dream would have never came about if not for 2 dear friends of ours Mr. Jimmy Reavis and his son James. Without their generosity and wisdom and their tireless work to help a family less fortunate and in need we would never have opened You guys are the best!! Now I need to say THANK YOU to MY FAMILY!!!!! Star, Beth and Amber For all you have done It has been a long and sometimes difficult battle but through it all we remained a strong family. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to being the very best at what you do Without a doubt you accomplished that and a lot more I love you guys with all my heart!!!

SHOP LOCAL By Shirley ThorneCounty Line Correspondent County Liners are look-ing forward to celebrating our country's 246th birthday this long holiday weekend. On July 4, 1776, the Con-tinental Congress voted yes on "The Declaration of In-dependence" officially de-claring the colonies as states in the new nation "The United States of America." As the document was read and then spread across the colonies, people celebrated with fireworks, ringing of bells, merriment, etc. Today folks still celebrate much the same way but also have parades, cookouts, shopping sprees, etc. Many County Liners will take a vacation whereas some will relax at home; but both, wherever they are, will celebrate. Here's wishing everyone a safe and happy July Fourth celebration. The Society Baptist Men and the Women on Missions will not meet Saturday, July 2. The evening worship ser-vice Sunday is canceled.Society Baptist will have a Bible study for women at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 7. The topic will be "Mary." The group invites others.Upcoming community events: Vacation Bible School at Piney Grove AME Zion July 12-14, 6:30-8 p.m.; Vacation Bible School at Clarksbury United Meth-odist July 31 from 5:30-8 p.m. and Aug. 1-2 from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.; and Vacation Bible School at Society Baptist July 31-Aug. 2.Our community extends sympathy to the family of Jennifer Beeson Lane, who died Tuesday of last week at Mocksville Senior Living after a few years of declin-ing health. The younger of two children, she was born in Iredell County in 1961 to Frances Evans Beeson and the late Kelly Beeson of County Line. She was reared on the family farm off Old Mocksville Road and attended Society Bap-tist, where she taught the primary girls' Sunday school class. In 1980 she graduated from North Ire-dell High School, where she received district award in health occupation, and then earned degrees in cosmetol-ogy and food management from Mitchell Community College. In 1985 she mar-ried James E. "Jim" Lane in Statesville; the couple and children lived in Da-vie County most of their married life. Jennifer had worked in food manage-ment at Brian Center of Statesville and Autumn Care of Mocksville and had last worked at Walgreens Pharmacy of Mocksville before becoming disabled. Kind and caring, she volun-teered at Good News Club and SAFE of Mocksville and was a member of Cor-nerstone Christian Church. A graveside memorial service at Society Baptist Church Cemetery will be announced later; she will join her beloved Jim, who died June 1998, in rest there. Rayford "Tink" McDan-iel continues to rest at home with palliative care. Alice Waugh remains in rehab at Davie Nursing and Reha-bilitation Center. Join us in prayer for the Lord's divine healing and blessings upon these residents and others having health problems.Remember in prayer Lo- rene Macemore; her brother Jimmy Cranfield died last Saturday after a lengthy bat-tle with cancer, heart, and kidney problems.

Maxine Shoaf Richardson 12 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 30, 2022 Bless Your Spoon By Stephanie Williams Dean More recipeswww.ourdavie.com Many cookbooks in my collection were gifts from lov-ing friends – calling for a double dash of sentiment. On top of my favorite gifted books is Naomi’s Home Companion, a Treasury of Favorite Recipes, compiled by Naomi Judd. My friend, Linda, with whom I worked in home healthcare, gave me the book. Feeling a small kinship to Naomi, Linda and I shared a common thread with her – we were nurses. Quality food, nourishment, and comfort are of importance to us. I was particularly fond of Naomi and shared another con-nection. Born and raised in Nashville – of course, country music is a favorite music genre. At one time, I lived south of Nashville – right in the heart of the quaint town of Frank-lin, Tenn. Naomi established her home in Leiper’s Fork, a small community adjacent to Franklin. It wasn’t unusual to see Naomi perusing fresh veg-gies at Earls Fruit Stand or hav-ing lunch next door at Dotson’s Restaurant – a hole-in-the-wall, meat and three kind of diner. Once inside, glossy, black and white, autographed composites of iconic music stars hung wall to wall. You could have found yourself eating beside a famous country singer on any day. Naomi’s cookbook has been valued for her southern reci-pes and kitchen wisdom, wit, and food for thought peppered throughout the pages. Her val-ues were as sage as the food she prepared – old-fashioned, down-home, and down-south. The cookbook was dedicated to two matriarchs who ruled from their kitchen kingdoms; her mother and grandmother. Naomi believed the solution to the country’s problems was to be found at our kitchen tables. Who would lead the family was more crucial than who would head the country. She found wisdom and truth in the adage, “the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.” Mothers could teach more fundamental lessons to children than teachers – around their kitchen tables. Nao-mi’s answer to societal woes? A high chair – and not the electric chair. That was a good place to start. Naomi’s selected recipes for her cookbook represented what she enjoyed most – a straightforward, homemade meal accompanied by an honest, plain conversation. The recipes are indicative of an era in the south – that of our mothers and grandmothers. Naomi’s recipes are similar to what I grew up on – and probably you. Simply put – good ol’ country cookin’ – recipes were chosen to take advan-tage of the season’s garden bounty. Christians have always enjoyed sharing meals due to the rich Biblical symbolism – an expression of love and unity. Our table is a place we connect – an opportunity for true fellowship with all kinds of folks. When teaching a lesson on seeking honor, in Mark 14:12-14, Jesus said, “When you give a luncheon or din-ner, do not invite your friends, our brothers or relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.” (NIV)May you continue to enjoy special moments in your kitchen – where old and new friends are welcome, and your door is always open – as was Naomi’s.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 30, 2022 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Part VI in a series on the 40-year anniversary of the 1982 Mocksville Legion baseball team. Every kid who plays baseball envisions himself stepping into the batter’s box in the bottom of the last inning in front of a big crowd and hitting a walk-off home run. Steve Hardister did it in real life. In Davie County, Steve Hard-ister became synonymous with the 1982 Fourth of July extravaganza at Rich Park. A few hours before Hardister’s heroic swing, with Mocksville trailing Statesville one-game-to-none in the best-of-seven semifinal series, star Mike Wilcox stood up in front of the team and inspired passion with an emotional speech. “I remember Willie’s story,” said Ron Morgan, who coached Every kid’s dream Hardister hits walk-off homer on July 4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Austin Sweet, a rising fresh-man, picked up the pole vault six months ago. He quickly became unstoppable, the future War Eagle capturing the gold medal in the Adidas Outdoor Nationals at N.C. A&T from June 17-19. Sweet earned three medals in the event. He took fifth in the high jump and sixth in the 100-meter hurdles. He finished first among 15 competitors in the pole vault despite breaking his pole during warmups. He borrowed a pole and set a personal record at 12-6. “I thought I did great,” Sweet By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Back in May, Davie’s Spencer Williams won the state champion-ship in the discus with a throw of 180-4. Just for good measure, he took the bronze medal in the dis-cus in the New Balance Nationals Outdoor meet in Philadelphia on June 17. The trip to Philadelphia closed the book on Williams’ prep career. It was a legendary run from 2018-22. Williams in track & field is what John Parker was to pitching in 1965 and what Dwayne Grant was to basketball in 1977. Williams also competed in the shot put in Philly. He was a two-time state champ in the shot, and he did something unheard-of by achieving the top four throws in state history. A ninth-place finish in that event in the nationals wasn’t what Williams had in mind. He simply had a bad day in that de-partment. “It’s once in a generation,” Da-vie coach Rob Raisbeck said. “Ac-tually two generations because the (shot put) records he was breaking were over 40 years old.”Williams went for 193-7 in the discus to finish third. He was behind New York’s Michael Pinck-ney (201-6) and New Jersey’s Benjamin Shue (193-10). “In the discus, he did extremely well; he PR’d by four feet,” Rais-beck said. “Going into the meet, said. “My goal is to clear 15 feet by the end of high school.”Davie track coach Rob Rais-beck said it’s mind-boggling what Sweet has accomplished in six short months. “12-6 is about three feet better than any of the kids on our high school team,” Raisbeck said. “His 12-6 mark would have met the automatic qualifying standard for high school states indoors.

So Austin Sweet wins national title in pole vaulting Please See Sweet - Page B4 the Mocksville Legion team from 1982-84. “As I remember, it was under the trees close to the conces-sion booth. I used that same speech to many of my youth football players over 39 years.”On Friday, July 2, Mocksville fell short, 5-4, in Game 1. In Game 2 at Statesville on Saturday, it was behind Statesville 16-14 in the top of the eighth when the game was suspended until July 5 due to a power failure. So heading into Game 3 on the Fourth of July, Mocksville felt like it was down two games and obviously need-ed to win this one. The pitching matchup was Statesville’s Andy Watts against righthander John “JJ” Johnson. In the second inning, laser-fo-cussed Mocksville seized a 1-0 lead. Johnson put up four straight zeroes, but Statesville turned the game in the fifth, when catcher William Jurney pounded a two-run homer during a three-run rally that put the visitors in front 3-1. Johnson weathered that storm and sizzled the rest of the way. But the score did not change in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings. Meanwhile, fans were coming out to Rich Park in droves for the Please See 1982 - Page B2 Williams closes prep career Spencer Williams Please See Williams - Page B4 his best was 189-something and he threw 193-7.

But he was human in the nation-als, throwing 59-7.5. The winner from Rhode Island went 66-3.25. The second-through-eighth finish-ers were from Massachusetts, New Jersey, Ohio, Vermont, California, Ohio and New Jersey. “In the shot, he did not have a good day,” Raisbeck said. “They took eight to the finals and he had the ninth-best throw in the prelims, which is far below his PR of 66-2.5.”Raisbeck recalled the Williams from 2018-19. “When he was in Philadel-phia, he told his mom it’s been 1,307 days - or something like that - since the first time he put By Brian PittsDavie Enterprise Record The Mocksville Senior Le-gion baseball team is accustomed to picking itself up after being knocked down. It has suffered four-, six- and three-game losing streaks, but ev-ery time you’re ready to write off Post 174, its gets up, dusts itself off and grits its teeth. Mocksville hosted Mooresville June 24. Dan Loyd found a phone booth, put on a cape and tights and carried his team to a 7-5 victory. “Dan hit in the clutch. He was the man,” coach Charles Kurfees said of his No. 3 batter’s five-RBI performance. “It was a big win. Any win is a big win in this league. They get knocked down on the mat and they get back up and come back the next game. They could have easily folded and quit. If it was easy, everybody would be doing it. American Legion baseball is for the guys who love the game.”The Moors scored an unearned run in the top of the first. They could have gotten more if it weren’t for a 3-6-1 double play that Loyd started and pitcher Cole Whitaker completed by hustling over to cover first. Mocksville (7-13, 4-4 South-ern Division) answered in the bottom of the first. Loyd’s single knocked in Parker Aderhold, and Ryan Thiel followed with a hit as Mocksville took a 2-1 lead. Whitaker escaped trouble in the top of the second. With runners at second and third and one out, he wiggled off the hook with a strikeout looking and a popup to third baseman Hunter Daywalt. Mocksville loaded the bases in the second - Lawrence Hancock, Aderhold and Blake Little were the baserunners - but failed to score. Mooresville grabbed the lead in the third, scoring two runs on an error and 2 hits. It bumped its lead to 4-2 in the fourth, when 3 walks and an error aided the Moors. Mocksville scored five of the last six runs as Loyd stole the show. In the fourth, Hancock, Parker Simmons and Aderhold had singles to load the bases. After Mooresville got a strikeout, Loyd stepped in with two outs. He rifled a bases-clearing double off the left-center wall to give his team a 5-4 lead. “He almost had a grand slam,” Kurfees said. In the fifth, Whitaker got an inning-ending K with the tying run at third. In the sixth, Moores-ville doubled off reliever Jackson Sink, but Sink got the next two and Aderhold got the third out in spec-tacular fashion. He came charging in and made a diving catch. “Ader-hold made two really big plays in center field,” Kurfees said. Mocksville got insurance in the sixth. After Simmons and Aderhold were walked, Loyd doubled in the gap. Then there were back-to-back walks to Thiel and Daywalt, the latter forcing in a run to make it 7-4. Sink gave up a one-out solo ho-mer in the seventh, but he got two strikeouts to put the Moors away. “I’ve beat them down and I’ve built them up,” Kurfees said. “Today we decided not to work out before the game. We’ve been working out at 4:30 before every home game, and we decided to take it off today. We reported at 5:30 and got ready to play base-ball. Maybe that’s what they need-ed after we’ve been going out there in the heat. They have improved by working out like we have. We’ve worked them hard - very hard. We knew we had to do something. We couldn’t take beatings like we were taking early in the year.”After going 1 for 7 during the three-game losing streak, Loyd went 3 for 4 with two doubles and five RBIs. It was Mocksville’s first five-RBI performance in 46 games, dating to Nick Ward’s five in a 16-15 win over Stokes County in July of 2019. Loyd leads the team in average (.363, 24-66), runs (15), hits (24, tied with Little), doubles (10 of Mocksville’s 30) and RBIs (18). This was his ninth multi-hit game. “It’s unreal how much his bat has improved,” Kurfees said. “He’s a big, strong boy. Dan doesn’t say a lot. But if things are going good, you’ll get a smile out of him. That’s about it; you’re not going to get much.”Mocksville got one hit from Aderhold (1-1, 3 runs, walk, 2 hit by pitches), Little (1-4), Theil (1-3, walk), Hancock (1-2, HBP) and Simmons (1-2, 2 runs, walk). “If Hancock gets a shorter swing, I believe he could be a really good player,” Kurfees said. “Ryan’s a backbone of the team. He’s a competitor. When you get Ryan Thiel pumped up, the team gets pumped up. When he gets into the game, you know it.”Whitaker went 5 innings, did not allow an earned run and picked up his staff-high third win in 6 starts. Sink got the save after fan-ning 3 and walking none in two innings. “Cole has pitched against the best in the division, and that dude has been hardened up,” Kurfees said. “He is a pretty good pitcher. Sink came in and did his job.” Loyd steals the show with 5 RBIs Steve Hardister has the home run ball from July 4, 1982. At far right is Dan Riddle’s keepsake from the clinching Game 6. Austin Sweet finished sixth in the 100 hurdles in the nationals at N.C. A&T. B2 ‑ DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 30, 2022 1982 ... annual Fourth of July fireworks display. You know how people will tell you they were at a big event but they really weren’t? This time they’re all telling the truth. By the ninth inning, the Enterprise wrote that approximately 6,000 people were packed in the park. “It was standing-room only,” Mocksville pitcher Chris Renegar said. “It was typical July the Fourth in Davie County and there was nothing else to do,” left fielder Todd Cassidy said. “That was back in the day where there weren’t fireworks every other weekend. The whole county started showing up right before dark, and here we were playing a game that was supposed to be over. The place was abso-lutely packed. It lasted long enough to where the people that didn’t come for the game got to watch several innings. It was cool.”“It was electric,” John-son said. “You felt this crazy excitement in the air.”Where did everyone park for the most-watched game in Mocksville Legion his-tory? “Up and down Main Street,” said Matt Marion, the bat boy that year. “They parked at the churches. They parked in the grave-yard. They parked down the road. They parked down at the softball field. Does it get any more American than that? No. 1, it’s American Legion, so you’re talking about the veterans that de-fended our country. No. 2, you’re talking about base-ball - America’s favorite pastime - and hot dogs, kids and firecrackers.”Down to its final three outs, Mocksville was in trouble. When the No. 9 batter opened the bottom of the ninth with a groundout, it really looked like States-ville was going to win and take a 2-0 lead in the series. But what happened from there was like a Disney movie script. A flurry began when leadoff man Barry Whitlock singled. Then Randy Taylor walked. Then Wilcox legged out an infield hit to load the bases. J.C. Hendrix saw the moment as a 12-year-old. “I was there,” Hendrix said. “I’ll never forget that. Back then you could sit on top of the dugout. It had a little fence there and you could climb up there. I know Whitlock was on third.”With one out and States-ville clinging to that 3-1 lead and the overflow crowd holding their collective breath, up walked Hardister. Mocksville’s cleanup batter and the Statesville hurler battled for several pitches. “I remember being in the situation. 3-2 count,” said Hardister, who has lived in Roanoke, Va. since 1989. “The boy had pitched a pretty good game. He mixed a fastball with a cur-veball. It was 3-2 and I said: ‘I’m not going to embarrass myself. I’m going to put it in play somewhere.’ I was just looking for a pitch to hit and he hung a curveball. Thinking back, it looked like a beach ball. When you hit a ball on the meat of the bat, you don’t really feel it. I remember swinging and making contact and I took off running to first.”Interestingly, the guy who called for the curve might have been Statesville catcher William “Bill” Jur-ney, who earlier turned the momentum with his homer. Jurney and Mocksville’s Dan Riddle would become teammates at UNC Char-lotte. Where is Jurney now? “He was a good friend of mine,” said David Jordan of Iredell County, who played for Statesville in 1983-84. “After UNC-Charlotte, he went into the Marine Corps. He is a three-star General right now in the Marines. He is way, way up there. He was a helluva catcher. If you define Marine, he was that damn tough when he was 16-, 17-, 18-years old.”Finally, the long at-bat saw Hardister, who had gone deep once in 20 Legion games, turn on the curve and crush it to left field. It was a lead-flipping, walk-off homer that will make people weep and write po-etry. Mocksville was a 5-3 winner. A three-game losing streak was suddenly in the rearview mirror. The series was tied 1-1. “I remember the base runners just stopped to watch it and the crowd went crazy,” Hendrix said. “I think all of Mocksville was there. I think some fireworks went off when the ball went out of the park. That added to the applause and the elation.”“I was on the hill,” said Charles Kurfees, who was 13 at the time. “That was the damndest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. There’s a picture of my daddy (Son-ny) jumping out of his lawn chair. Dick Nail was sitting beside of him. He was say-ing the season was over. He told Dick: ‘You know, we’ve got something to be proud of. We’ve done pretty good this year and we’ve got nothing to be ashamed about.’ Hardister fouled off several pitches. It was like something you’d see in the movie The Natural. It was unreal. The place went crazy. Daddy said when that thing went out of the ballpark, the fireworks were going off. They went to Statesville the next night and the place was packed. That’s what started the big crowds. That had to be the biggest crowd that’s ever been in Rich Park.”“It was one of those storybook moments,” D. Riddle said. “That crowd that night was probably the largest baseball crowd I had ever been a part of until (my UNC Charlotte team) went to places like Florida State or South Carolina to play, that sort of thing.”“I was on deck,” John “Boomer” Bivins said. “I didn’t want him to make an out, but I was hoping he’d walk because I wanted to hit. I wanted to knock that winning run in. But he hit that ball up in the trees. He started the fireworks for the night.”Did the homer wind up near the creek or did it bang off the light pole? “I’m telling you, that ball hit the light pole and came back in,” Whitlock said. “I swear it did. It hit about halfway up that light pole and came back in.”“As soon as we won the game, the fireworks started,” Cassidy said. “So it was a magical, pinnacle moment of your career. It was your little boy’s dream comes true.”It still feels more like a movie script than a real thing that happened. “I think I got about half-way to first and it disap-peared behind the lights into the trees,” Hardister said. “I got around first and I think everybody was up cheering. I got that little chill around the back of my neck going around second base. After I’d left, my dad would go out to see some of the Legion games and people would say: ‘Hey, you remember that night your boy hit that home run?’ So there was some folklore there for him to relish in, a story to carry on.”Hardister has the home run ball. Who retrieved it? “I really can’t say for 100 percent as some other kid may have picked it up and handed it to Ron (Whitlock) or I,” Marion said. “But I can guarantee you I touched it before Steve did.”“Charles Kurfees might have gone and found the ball or maybe the Whitlock twin brothers and Matt Marion went looking for it,” Hard-ister said. “I’m guessing what I have is the ball. At this point, it represents that Fourth of July night and how winning that game maybe turned around our morale and gave everybody a hope and confidence not to give up until the last out of a game to continue our Legion season.”When Hardister touched home, it was time for fire-works. “I bet it wasn’t 10 min-utes later, they were shoot-ing the fireworks off,” Whit-lock said. “We shook hands and everything and they cut the lights out - and boom, there they went.”As if losing on the final pitch wasn’t painful enough, the stunned Statesville team and its wounded fans couldn’t get out of the park. “Statesville couldn’t leave because it was packed,” said Steve Lang-ley, who was Mocksville’s athletic director for several years. He’s now 75 and lives in Midway. “They had to sit and wait and watch the fire-works before they could get home. There was no way for that bus to get out of there.”•••On July 5, the adventur-ous Game 2 resumed and Statesville won 21-17 to take a two-games-to-one lead. The rest of the series, though, was controlled by Mocksville. Later in the evening on July 5, Kenny Riddle Mike Wilcox hits a three-run homer.

Sonny Kurfees reacts to Steve Hardister’s HR. bombed his second homer in Statesville’s park and Mocksville dominated 15-8 to even the series. Game 5 at Rich Park on July 6 was a riveting pitcher’s duel. Jeff Burton threw a three-hit gem and Mocksville won 1-0. Game 6 was at Statesville July 7. D. Riddle was the star of the show. He scat-tered nine hits and fanned 10 in a complete game. He also erupted for five hits and three RBIs. It was a stunning offensive display for a guy who wasn’t known for his bat; he came in with two hits on the year. Mocksville clinched the series four games to two by absolutely destroying Statesville 18-2. “His forkball was work-ing that night,” Morgan said. “They couldn’t hit it. It was awesome. Dan was a great pitcher. If his forkball was working, you were going to hit groundballs all night.”“I remember that night,” D. Riddle said. “I had a few (offensive) nights like that, but it wasn’t the norm. Sometimes you get in the zone hitting or pitching.”The offensive madness in Game 6 included three hits and four RBIs from Whitlock and two hits from Taylor, including an inside-the-park home run. Winning the series was a big deal. The players saw how big on the way home. “Danny (Marion) had the sheriff’s department bring us in on the bus,” Morgan said. “As soon as we hit the county line, we had an escort. That was fun.”“They had a police es-cort to Miller’s,” Kurfees said. “It was big-time back then. When you won in the first round of the playoffs, you had done something, buddy.”“We were coming down Interstate 40 on the old bus, and when we hit the Davie County line, the sheriff’s de-partment rode in the center of the two lanes coming east bound and blocked traffic so nobody could pass the bus,” Langley said. Pedal-to-the-metal Mocksville was 15-9 and heading to the Area III Southern Division finals. Awaiting it was powerhouse Rowan County.

He visited a club in Greens-boro earlier this month, speaking at a monthly din-ner meeting.These days, he’s talking about kayaks as much as or more than anything – espe-cially when he brings his personal 14-foot, Hobie kayak as a showpiece.His vessel has ped-al-power, meaning he doesn’t have to use a pad-dle; he pedals like a cy-clist, and a pair of “flip-pers” under the boat’s hull propel the kayak forward or backwards. There’s a top-drawer depth finder, a comfortable seat, multiple rod holders and space to hold tackle boxes and even live bait.What is the draw? Well, price a 17-foot fishing State-record holder, Charles Newton of Sumter, S.C., and his pompano dolphinfish. - Photo Courtesy NCDMF Jerry Dilsaver of Oak Island and his rigged out Hobie fishing kayak. - Photo by Dan Kibler boat lately? You’re like-ly to have to buy a model that’s 20 years or older to get down to the price of a kayak rigged as well as Dil-saver’s – and his is several times more expensive than most beginners will even consider. That’s part of it, but not nearly all of it.“I really think the thing is, you’re doing it totally on your own, with just your kayak and gear,” Dilsaver said. “Fishing from a kay-ak, either you quit or you become a better fisherman, because you can’t pick up and run 5 miles to another spot; you have to learn to fish the water you’re in.“We can get in water lots of boats can’t get into, and you can throw one right in the back of your truck, mfind a bridge over a creek that looks fishy, and slide it down the bank and launch. I have fished from moun-tain streams to 1½ miles offshore.”Dilsaver advises new-bies to start in a kayak that’s not going to put any kind of strain on their bud-get – but not a piece of fi-berglass trash.“There are two ways to approach it,” he said. “If you are absolutely sure you’re going to enjoy kay-ak fishing, you’re probably wise to go ahead and look at an upper-level kayak. If myou’re just exploring, you might be better served to find a good-quality, used boat. Don’t buy a $300 boat; get something with a little quality so you can see and decide whether you want to move up.”When you’re hooked assurely as the fish you are targeting, then you can start considering something like the Hobie that Dilsav-er runs in the ICW, coastal rivers and creeks and even out to artificial reefs off his Oak Island home.“Do not get in a foot-pro-pelled kayak unless you’re ready to buy one, because it will ruin you. You’re used to not being able to cast and paddle at the same time. With a foot-propelled kay-ak, you can – and you can even troll.“The more I’m around the Hobie engineers, the more I think they’re the most-innovative group around.”State RecordThe NC Division of Ma-rine Fisheries has certified the state’s first record pom-pano dolphinfish, and it may wind up being a world record, too.Charles Noonan of Sumter, S.C., caught the 11-pound, 5.4-ounce fish around an abandoned raft about 42 miles off Ocean Isle Beach on June 8.The DMF certified the record – the first ever for that species, which is a cousin of the Mahi-mahi, another colorful offshore battler that grows apprecia-bly larger. A key difference is that pompano dolphinfish have compressed heads and dorsal fins that extend the entire length of their bodies – unlike Mahi-Mahi.The existing all-tackle world record for pompano dolphinfish is an 8½-pound fish caught off the coast of Maryland in 2008.Noonan’s fish was 30½ inches long and 17 ¼ inch-es in girth. He caught it trolling a dead ballyhoo bait while fishing with Salt Fever Guide Service out of Ocean Isle Beach.Reef MadnessNCDMF finished dis-posing of 68 barge loads of material from the Herbert C. Bonner Bridge, which carries NC 12 over Oregon Inlet and was destroyed af-ter being replaced by the Marc Basnight Bridge.The 80,000 pound of concrete went to augment a handful of artificial reefs: AR-130, AR-140, AR-145 and AR-160 off Oregon In-let, AR-250 and AR-255 off Ocracoke Inlet, AR-3420 off Beaufort Inlet and AR-340 off Bogue Inlet. The remnants of the Bonner Bridge was the largest amount of material associated with any artifi-cial reef project in the his-tory of the state’s artificial reef program.Reefs off Holden Beach and Ocean Isle Beach re-ceived about 1,500 tons of recycled concrete pipe in a program funded by Coast- al Recreational Fishing License sales. Most of the pipe was damaged during Hurricane Florence.NCDMF has created 68 artificial reefs from just off the beach to 38 miles off-shore. They serve as spawn-ing and foraging habitat for many fish species.

The other was freshman David Patton, who competed in the 100 meters before having Continued From Page B1on a Davie uniform and he threw the shot 28 feet indoors and finished 17th,” Raisbeck said. “He got bet-ter and threw like 38 feet outdoors as a freshman, which is good but it’s not 66. When he got to his sopho-more year, he showed some development, but COVID was wiping us out. It looked like he was getting better, but the outdoor season gets wiped out.”Williams’ transformation into a star happened be-tween his sophomore and ju-nior years. He worked in his backyard and used an iron will to become the greatest thrower in state history. “By the time he gets to his junior year, he had dra-matic improvement,” Rais-beck said. “When you’re improving year over year by 10-12 feet, it’s amazing to see that kind of expo-nential growth. The growth between his sophomore and junior was due to the fact that he was determined. He knew that’s what he wanted to do in life and that was going to be his ticket. It was amazing to see that kind of dedication the kid put in.”Even after winning the state shot put as a junior, he never stopped trying to improve. “What he did at regionals (at Davie in breaking the state record three times in one day) was the stuff of legends,” Raisbeck said. “He had been so close to the (shot put) state record and I think he felt a tremendous amount of pressure to get that record. And I know he really wanted to do it at home. When he threw that first one and got the record, I think the weight of the world was off his shoulders and he literally just went nuts and kept throwing further and further. To break an all-time state record by three feet is really unheard-of. It was re-ally cool to experience that. “When you go to the typical track meet, you don’t see a whole lot of people hanging out at the throws area. But there were a ton of people out there watching to immediately report to his next event, the long jump. He long jumped 19-6 to finish ninth. “You have to meet a qualifying standard just to get into the meet,” Raisbeck said. Sweet ... that shot put. He had a lot of family and friends there. “And then the state meet was also really interesting because until his last throw, he had not had a good se-ries at all in the shot. He kept fouling. You get to the sixth round, the last throw, the guy from Sun Valley had a chance to pull the upset. Once the victory was assured and all the pressure was off, Spencer throws 64-3.75 and breaks the state meet record - five feet further than any other throw in the competition. Everything was perfect on that last throw.”On top of Williams’ obvi-ous throwing skills, there’s his academics and leader-ship qualities. “He’s a great student,” Raisbeck said. “He’s a 4.3 GPA. He’s devout in his faith. We had a big throws group. We had 15 kids out there. Your average track team doesn’t have anywhere near that number of throw-ers, and I know a bunch of the kids were out there just because of Spencer to be a part of that journey. We had kids throwing in the 20s, and we had one kid who couldn’t throw it 20 feet. But Spencer was out there taking time with those kids and helping them perfect their craft even though it took away from his practice time. That shows what kind of kid he is.”Now Williams is nearing his college career in Chapel Hill. “It’s pretty close (to a full ride at North Carolina),” Raisbeck said. “You basical-ly don’t get full rides in any non-revenue sport. The way they cobbled together all of of his aid, it’s essentially a full ride. Women get 18 scholarships for track and cross country combined. Men’s track gets some weird number like 12.7. So when you think that you’re fund-ing an entire track team, which has 20 events, plus your cross country team, and you only get 12.7 schol-arships and Spencer is es-sentially getting a full ride, that tells you what they think of him.” Williams ... By Brian PittsDavie Enterprise Record After winning four in a row, the Mocksville Senior Legion baseball team’s fun ended against visiting Kan-napolis on June 19. Mocksville was outhit 12-3 and lost 12-2 in five innings. Yikes. The Towelers socked three-run homers in the first and third innings while building an 8-0 lead. Mocks-ville’s hits came from Blake Little (1-3), Ryan Thiel (1-2) and Jackson Sink (1-2). Little extended his hitting streak to five games, and Sink had both RBIs. Little got Mocksville’s first hit in the fourth as he led off with a single. Thiel and Sink followed with hits as Mocksville cut the deficit to 8-2.This was the third meet-ing between the teams. Post 174 won 9-4 on May 29, and Kannapolis won 10-8 on June 6. Kannapolis 13, Mock 3 Two days later on the road, it was another night-mare performance for Mocksville, which lost in four and a half innings. The wheels came off in the bottom of the first, when Kannapolis got five hits and scored six runs. Mocksville beat David-son County, Greensboro and Concord (twice) during its winning streak, but Kan-napolis was another animal. The Towelers reminded everyone that Mocksville is still a young bunch. “We were feeling good about ourselves, and then we laid an egg two games in a row,” coach Charles Kurfees said. “Now we’re back to square one.”Kannapolis finished with three times as many hits (9-3) and did not commit an error. Dejected Mocksville (6-12 overall, 3-3 South-ern Division) had more errors (five) than hits as it endured the eighth loss by double-figure margins. “It was bad,” Kurfees said. “They just hit the crap out of it. They’re a very good team. I haven’t seen all the teams yet, but they’re probably the best team in the division. They hit very well.”“Kannapolis beat Rowan twice in non-league,” assis-tant Jacob Tutterow said. “They’ve got the best hitting squad other than Randolph that I’ve seen.”Dan Loyd (1-3, two RBIs), Sink (1-2, double) and Christian Brown (1-1) had Mocksville’s hits. Parker Aderhold, Little and Major Bryant did reach with one walk apiece. Brown gave up three runs in 1.2 innings of relief, but all were unearned.

Cooley Roofing Offers a Full Line of Exterior Home Improvement Services Since 1989 Cooley Roofing has been serving local homeowners by offering a full line of exterior home im-provement services such as roofing, windows, siding, gutters, and other repairs. The company’s long-standing professional and dedicated performance towards its cus-tomers has earned Cooley Roofing the premier status of a trustworthy and diligent company. Cooley Roofing has earned the highest certification in the country as a Mas-ter Elite Residential Roofing Contractor. Its customers enjoy a warm personal touch as the business contin-ues to be family owned and operated since its incep-tion. From the office personnel to the installation crews, customers appreciate the experience, knowledge, and quality workmanship that has long proven Cooley Roof-ing to be one of the foremost exterior home improve-ment companies in our areea. The company delivers courteous and exceptional service for a fair price. The owner, Troy Cooley, has always been a hard worker with an entrepreneurial spirit, even since high school. His first job was with a trucking company in Thomasville loading furniture. It was extremely chal-lenging and arduous work. It was there that Troy real-ized that he was either going to always have a boss or he was going to be the boss. And so with that in mind, he asked himself, “What does this community need?” At that time, living in Davidson County, he noticed that there was no trash collection provided by the local government. Here was an untapped, yet much needed service, within which he perceived he could furnish. And with that, Troy was able to purchase a dump truck and “Clean Country Trash” was born and began its opera-tions. Through hard work and dependable service Troy built an impressive solid customer base. Impressive enough that one day he received an offer from a large company to buy the business. And so being the young entrepreneur he was, Troy sold it. It was a remarkable achievement for someone so young. And this gave him the opportunity in 1989 to start the roofing company known today as Cooley Roofing & Construction, LLC. Troy began by spending time learning and under-standing the roofing business. He launched into sell- ing roofs and installing the roofs himself. Eventually, he hired an experienced and equally hardworking carpen-ter, who became a partner in the burgeoning business. For the next 20 years the business grew and expanded into building and remodeling homes. However then the building industry crashed in the re-cession of 2008-09, many builders, home remodelers and roofers closed their operations. Even large contrac-tors went out of business. To weather the weakened economy Troy was forced to make critical decisions. Now he had a family to con-sider: his wife of 25 years, Jennifer, whom he met at church in Clemmons, and his kids Bennett, Grace, and Madison. Although other competitors were shutting their doors, Troy was determined to persevere. Maintaining the core business would be the key. So Troy decided to go back to the one thing that he had originally started, that being his roofing business. He would downsize and make roofing the priority. How-ever this time, Cooley Roofing would be stronger, more experienced and possess a unique perspective on roof-ing and other exterior home renovations which would position itself as a true and reliable leader in the market-place. Today Cooley Roofing takes pride in its ability to help businesses and homeowners choose the optimal roof-ing system, materials, and technology that best fits their customer’s needs and pocketbooks. The entire busi-ness has retained its reputation for being passionate about serving their clients and it shows through their work product and customer satisfaction. Troy is very thankful to God, to his family, to his church, and all those who have supported him through-out the years. He knowsthat he is truly blessed to have been able to serve this community for so many years and is excited to continue to do so. Under his leadership Cooley Roofing’s best years lay ahead!

By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Mocksville’s Senior Le-gion baseball team stag-gered home from Kannap-olis on June 21, but the next night pitcher Darren Shore, Parker Aderhold and Post 174 met the challenge against Rowan County at Rich Park ... until everything fizzled in a 7-5 loss. The third setback in the latest losing streak was heartbreaking. “We had them on the ropes,” coach Charles Kurfees said. “Shore pitched his tail off,” assistant Jacob Tutte-row said. Mocksville missed a scoring opportunity in the bottom of the first inning. With Aderhold and Dan Loyd at second and third with two outs, a strikeout ended the inning. But Mocksville got on the board in the third. Ader-hold walked and Blake Lit-tle singled to set it up for Ryan Thiel, who attacked the first pitch and singled to give Mocksville the lead, 1-0. The lead swelled in the fourth. Jackson Sink reached on an error, Parker Simmons walked on four pitches and Aderhold had an RBI single. When Little reached on an error, Simmons crossed the plate. When Loyd walked to load the bases, Mocksville was in position to blow open its 3-0 lead - but Rowan got a groundout. As you would expect, Rowan fought back. Shore walked the first two bat-ters in the fifth, but he got two outs and then induced a grounder. The ball was errored to load the bases and keep the inning alive. Then another error allowed two runs. Shore had a no-hitter through five, but Mocksville’s lead had been chopped to one. With two on and two outs in the sixth, Shore got a popout to third baseman Loyd to keep the score 3-2. Rowan’s right fielder prevented Mocksville from adding on in the sixth. Law-rence Hancock got a two-strike hit and advanced on Simmons’ bunt. Little sent a sharply-hit ball to right, but the fielder robbed him as the score remained 3-2. “The right fielder made a heck of a play because it was going down the line and it would have scored (Hancock) and been a dou-ble,” Tutterow said. “That kid caught it in full stride. He probably should have laid out because he made a shoestring catch and fell when he caught it. He just made a spectacular play.”Three outs from victory, Mocksville fell apart. The first Rowan batter in the seventh walked on a full-count pitch. The next man singled to end the night for Shore, who gave up just two hits in six innings. He would end up with four runs allowed, although only two were earned. “Rowan has three dudes that can put it out of the park, and they had one hit all night between the three of those guys,” Tutterow said. “Shore kept them off-balance. They had no idea what was coming (between his fastball, changeup and slider). When they did hit it, most of the time it was on the ground. He was real tired (after 92 pitches).”Little came on in relief, and you can’t blame Kurfees for that move. In Little’s previous mound outing on June 9 against Davidson County, he blew away six of seven batters to nail down an extra-inning win. But Little was mortal in this one. He walked his first batter to load the bases and he plunked the next man to force in the tying run. The next batter lined out to second baseman Simmons, but a three-run double followed that. Row-an ended up scoring five runs to put Mocksville in a painful 7-3 hole. Mocksville did not throw in the towel. In the last of the seventh, Thiel walked with one out. Hunter Daywalt singled and Thiel scored on a wild pitch. When Sink singled, the tying run was at the plate with one out. Back-to-back strikeouts, though, ended the rally as Mocksville fell to 6-13 over-all and 3-4 in the Southern Division. “We just made a couple errors in some bad spots,” Tutterow said. It was a little miraculous that Rowan scored seven runs on three hits. The rea-son: Mocksville’s pitchers walked nine and the hosts made three errors. Rowan was able to work around its three miscues in the field and beat Post 174 for the third time this season. Aderhold had a big game with two hits and a walk in three at-bats. Mocksville got one hit from Little (1-4), Thiel (1-3, walk), Daywalt (1-4), Sink (1-4) and Han-cock (1-4). Loyd had two walks. Tutterow said Hancock was far and away the de-fensive player of the game. “He made so many plays at second base - deep in the hole, laying out for balls, catching bad hops,” he said. “There were so many bad hops hit at him that he snagged and made the throw to first. Defensively, he kept us in the game. Since Day-walt came up, he’s played second only. Defensively, he’s been great all summer and his bat is starting to come around.” Interestingly enough, Tutterow helps Mocksville even though he lives in Raleigh. He is a football assistant, the head coach in wrestling and the JV base-ball coach at Cary High. Sometimes he stays with his parents in Iredell County. “I’ve been back and forth between here and Raleigh because of football,” he said. “Sometimes I stay (with my parents) and sometimes I come back (to Raleigh) if we’ve got seven-on-seven. It’s not that bad a drive. It’s an hour and a half to Rich Park.” The Mocksville Junior Legion Developmental team took the lead late in the game and beat visiting South Rowan 4-3 on June 21. It was the second straight win for Mocksville and the third straight game decided by one run.

It removes sugars from the gums and gets them used to the feeling of cleaning the mouth.”1299206 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 30, 2022 - B7 By KC SmithCooleemee Correspondent The fifth graders at Cool-eemee Elementary were honored with a grand walk through of students on both sides of the walkway, who were clapping, cheering, blowing horns, bubbles were floating in the air, spe-cial posters were held high with shouts of goodbyes to the end.The last day of school is filled with mixed emotions that can lead to tears and many hugs.Ms. Tatum praised her fourth graders by saying it was the best year ever. “This was a great good of kids, they worked very hard, test scores were great, so I’m very proud of their work.”The music director, Erin Penley, had a great year. During COVID, she was forced to push around a cart to the classes, so this year the students were excited they could go to her class-room, which meant they could do more with less limitations.Principal Angie Burgess said the staff decided at the beginning of the school year they would focus on a school mission: creating ex-cellence for students. Every student received a packet of marigold seeds which encouraged being positive and helping them find their positive self and to be a marigold to every-one, she said. If the stu-dent became negative or discouraged the unopened seed packet would remind them of their ‘why’. The teachers stayed focued on students because they are their ‘why’. As the end of school was approaching, attendance in-creased with reduction of COVID numbers, growth occurred in social, behav-ioral, emotional areas and academics. Bowen Link and Cole Roseman lead the fifth graders as they walk to cheers of fellow students. - Photos by KC Smith Cooleemee Elementary students wave to classmates and teachers as they leave the school campus for the last time until the next school year begins.

The newly-weds have returned to their home in Charlotte after a honeymoon at the island, St. Lucia. All of Amy’s Cujas family has returned to Penn-sylvania and the Applegate family has returned to Flor-ida.Arnold Gosnell, pastor of the Farmington Methodist Charge, and his family have returned from the Western North Carolina Methodist Conference. The Gosnell damily camped in the Ju-naluska area while attending the conference. Lisa Dixon West, the delegate to the conference from the Farm-ington Methodist Charge, reported that attending the business sessions and the worship services was an uplifting experience. Kathy Ellis made the trip with Lisa and also found the worship services uplifting. Joey Yo-keley, director of The Chris-tian Fellowship of Athletes, filled the pulpit last Sunday in the pastor’s absence.While Kathy Ellis was at Lake Junaluska, Bob El-lis’ grandson, Jayden Ellis, cared for his grandfather. Jayden lives in Raleigh with his parents, Maricel and Robert Ellis, but he is spending some time with his grandparents in Pino.Joseph Burchette, the great-grandson of Betty Etchison West, completed fifth grade at Shady Grove Elementary School last week and took part in the fifth grade graduation.
