Then a couple of residents brought up the latest proposal of condi-tional zoning for the project in the July meeting as the buzz in the community continued.“I don’t know that it’s ever died down,” said Town Man-ager Andrew Meadwell, who confirmed another application has been submitted by Homes Urban. “It’s going to be a con-ditional zoning.

With growth came the need for more space. The company found its 6,000 square-foot fa-cility in Winston-Salem land-locked by zoning restrictions. Eddinger lives in Davie Coun-ty, so after a two-year battle, he turned to Terry Bralley, presi-dent of the Davie County Eco-nomic Development Commis-sion, who was happy to help. The company purchased 13 acres at Bethel Church and Milling roads in Mocksville to build a 15,000 square-foot fa-cility with plenty of space for manufacturing, a showroom, and growth. Factoring in sup-ply chain delays, Eddinger ex-pects to be in the new facility in 12-18 months.

The main reason to seek annexation is for the town’s sewer system, those outside the city limits pay double the rate.

It’s not safe.”“But what if…” Johnny began before being drowned out by his older brother again.“What if, what if, what if…” is that all you know how to say? “Sometimes,” Carson said, “sometimes you just have to do what you’re told, and Mom said it was my job to keep you safely in the yard.”Johnny sighed. He hated fences. He hated rules. He hated boundaries. But sometimes you just have to do what you have to do.That night, after Mother tucked him in bed with her usual kiss, hug and I love you, Johnny couldn’t sleep. Finally, around midnight, he got up and looked out the window. The full moon, high in the sky, created a path to his window, inviting him to open the sash and slip out. Holding his breath, Johnny silently raised the window and leaned out into the beckoning moonlight, his eyes growing wide in delight. From his window, he could see the oak barrel overflowing with Johnny Jump Ups, his favorite flowers. But as he watched, he realized something was very different. The flowers were dancing. Not just waving in the breeze, the flowers were whirling, twirling, and cavorting inside the barrel.Trying not to make any sound, Johnny slid one leg, and then the other over the window sash, then lowered himself to the ground. The flowers, oblivious, continued their dance, and Johnny watched, entranced. He wanted to join them in their abandon as much as he’d ever wanted anything in his life. Then suddenly, it happened. His face turned purple, his eyes yellow, and his body, a slender green stem. Arms and legs became leaves, and, just like that, he was in the barrel dancing with the others.Now, up close, he could see that each flower had a face, and their eyes danced with merriment. “Come on, Johnny,” they called, “dance with us!” And so, he did.As the soft moonlight glowed in the sky, more and more dancers crowded the barrel. Johnny realized the flowers were tiny fairies. They called to the fireflies and the dragonflies who joined in the fun as crickets played percussion and praying mantises played fiddles and guitars. Glowing wings, sparkling eyes and laughter filled the air. Johnny found himself pirouetting with the flowers and leaping with the dragonflies, who looked far more like dragons than flies in the mystical moonlight, and then joining a conga line with the fireflies. He’d never had so much fun.Soon the barrel overflowed, and tiny flower fairies spilled out and danced along the moon’s path across the yard. But then, as night turned towards morning, and the moonlight dimmed in the sun’s dawning rays, the fairy flowers became so tired they fell asleep where they stood, the moonlight magic waning for another month. Johnny was the last to stop, but when he realized it was almost day, he hurriedly climbed back through his window and immediately fell asleep in his bed.He only awoke when he heard his mother’s voice call out, “Oh look, the Johnny Jump Ups have escaped the barrel. They’re all over the yard. They must have had quite a night last night.” Johnny smiled. If she only knew! Clearly, he was aptly named. Johnny Jump Ups didn’t like walls any more than he did.More than a pretty flower, Johnny Jump Ups can be eaten and are often used to decorate cakes and other pastries. Medicinally, they are used to alleviate aches and pains. They can be helpful for coughs and sore throats in a tea, or can treat cuts, dry skin and acne, either directly or in a salve. Shakespeare, calling them love-in-idleness, had the fairy, Puck, use the flower to trick the queen, Titania into falling in love with Bottom, a servant with a donkey’s head. Roman legend says the flowers were white until one was hit by Cupid’s arrow, then they turned purple. More than a pretty border or container flower, Johnny Jump Ups have been around for centuries and are quite versatile. Time Well SpentBy Gaye HootsI spent the last two weeks visiting in Advance with family and friends. The two Sundays I was there; I went with my daughter and brother-in-law to church at Advance United Methodist Church. News of the new young minister with a beautiful voice for song and speaking enticed me. The first Sunday, a visiting minister spoke but was an excellent speaker. There were friends I had not seen for weeks, some for months. It was a pleasure to see everyone and to speak with Nancy Shoaf, who had recently lost her husband, Medford. Last Sunday, the new minister spoke; he had a rich, captivating voice and delivered a meaningful message. The service and the fellowship were rewarding. I plan to attend the next time I visit.Faye, Nick, and I celebrated birthdays, and their anniversary by having lunch at Shelton Vineyards, a beautiful setting in the foothills where they took Charles and Lorene Markland to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary recently.Gail Frye and I had lunch at 101, and though recovering from a broken hip, she is baking cakes again. The day I visited, she had 4 of them boxed and was icing the 5th one. Gail sent one home with me, and it was delicious. Sunday, she and I went to Ron Beard’s memorial service. The crowd was so large I did not get to speak to everyone, but Glenda was as beautiful as ever. Her cousin Judy Hendrix Osborne, Betty Jean,and Stacey Cornatzer attended. I didn’t recognize Stacey because I tried to place him as a classmate. We grew up with the Cornatzer boys and loved them. Janie Zimmerman and I talked; it seems we only see each other at memorial services.Janine Vogler had planned to attend with me but had sprained her wrist and did not feel up to going. Jane Carter and I had to cancel plans earlier in the week, but she and Jack were at the memorial service. David Carter has purchased the Mamie Markland Myers home near his parents, and they are working on that project. Several classmates from Shady Grove Elementary were there, and we discussed the possibility of planning a Shady Grove reunion. Precious childhood memories of time spent with each other prompted this.I made plans for lunch with several friends and spoke with Larry Smith and his wife about our friend Bill Evans who had a stroke and is in rehab recovering. I also stopped by to check on Judy and Sam Howard and Betty and Bob Potts.The memorial was held at The Farm near Jerusalem Church. The setting is lovely, and the building is beautiful. It is owned and managed by Judy Grubb and her husband; she was a classmate of Ron Beard. I don’t know if they were responsible for the food, but it was excellent.When I took Gail home, her family gathered for a watermelon cutting. I was lucky to see 2 of Pete Frye’s sisters, one I have known for years, and the other is a member of Renegade Writers.This week I attended the wedding of Sandy Latham to Brent Barnes with my granddaughter, her fiancé, and his son. My granddaughters were flower girls in the sweet, country-themed wedding. We enjoyed celebrating their marriage, food, music, and fellowship.My generation is blessed to experience the happy events of childhood and adulthood, reexperience the joyous occasions with our children, our grandchildren, and our great-grandchildren, and share those of family and friends whose sorrows we also share. Life is good. SherlockBy Marie CraigIn my church we have assignments to check on each other by visiting and befriending. When I lived in Columbia, South Carolina, I was asked to become familiar with an older lady in our church who lived alone, about 4 miles from me. What seemed like a task just to check off became a pleasant experience as I realized that she had been a gifted artist in watercolor and a person I could relate to and learn from. She would share her memories with me about her family and her interests. Everything was positive except she wasn’t able to do much housekeeping. She had a black and white cat named Sherlock who was welcome on all the furniture. I would come home covered in cat hair from sitting on Sherlock’s couch. My friend lived one block off a seriously-busy street northeast of Columbia. There was an intersection about a fourth of a mile from her home with cars whizzing constantly. At one of my visits, I realized Sherlock was missing. She told me that she was considering giving him away but first wanted to know that he was in good health and current with vaccines. Her son had come to get the cat and took him to a veterinarian’s office a few miles away. To drive there, he just put the cat in his car, drove one block to the main road and then turned left at the intersection. He left the cat for rehab and went home. A few days later, he picked up the cat after work on that cold, dark, rainy afternoon. When he approached the busy intersection, he decided to gas up his car on the corner. When he opened the car door, Sherlock escaped. The son called and looked in vain for the cat and feared the worst with the rain, the darkness, and the rush hour traffic. He finally curtailed his search and went to his mother’s to explain what had happened. I was sad to hear this and knew I’d miss seeing Sherlock on my visits.A few months later at one of my monthly visits, when I entered my friend’s living room, there sat a black and white cat on the couch as if he owned the place. I asked her if she’d acquired another cat, and she said, “No, that’s Sherlock!” I couldn’t believe it. She said she had heard something at the back door, and there he was. I couldn’t believe he had found her in the midst of traffic, stores, many houses that all looked alike, and mayhem. She said that if he wanted to live with her that much, that she was going to keep him as long as possible. I’m not worried about monkeypox.I wasn’t worried about covid either, at least not for the years that followed those first few weeks, when sci-entists were being scientists instead of politicians, when news coverage was of the facts rather than a spin in a political direction, when suggestions from health offi-cials made common sense, not political sense.But back to monkeypox.When I first heard it, I worried about that poor mon-key. Monkeys live in monkey worlds, humans live in human worlds. Sometimes they interact; and when that happens, sometimes humans go monkey crazy and mon-keys go human crazy. Maybe that’s how it got started. Let’s not blame all monkeys for the transgressions of a few.Humans, on the other hand ...It turns out that monkeypox isn’t new, and apparently was first discovered in a monkey in a lab in Denmark in the late 1950s. I’m no expert on anything, but I don’t think monkeys are native to Denmark. That monkey was taken from his monkey world into the human world by a human. After all, why would a monkey leave its monkey world, where they could eat bugs and banan-as to their heart’s content and swing from vine to vine answering only to Tarzan himself? (I think that’s how monkey worlds were described in history books in the 1950s.)The answer: they wouldn’t. Monkeys love their mon-key world.Monkeypox (I can still call it that.) is no joke. First discovered among humans in the 1970s in Africa, it is a contagious virus that has to be controlled.No fear, we have the World Health Organization. I’ll just call it The Who, not to be confused with the British rock band that actually uses its talents to help mankind and destroy perfectly good musical instruments.The Who, it seems, is concerned with the name “monkeypox.” It had to be changed “to reduce stigma and discrimination and be more accurate.”Finally, someone is taking the side of the poor mon-key. Actually, they’re taking the side of Africa. The Who says there’s no evidence that the current world-wide outbreak started in Africa. Fair enough. A doctor wrote: “Although the origin of the new global MPXV (monkeypox, I can still call it that.) is still unknown, there is growing evidence that the most likely secnario is that cross-continent, cryptic human transmission has been ongoing for longer than previ-ously thought.”Oh, now I understand.Thanks, The Who. It is proposing to rename the monkeypox (I can still call it that.) to clade, followed by numbers or letters depending on the variant. Some clades (i.e, monkeypox, I can still call it that.) have been transmitted for many years in several countries, including the United States. It isn’t fair to associate that variant with one that came from Africa.The doctors also complained that western (That’s us) media, when showing the effects of monkeypox (I can still call it that.), almost always show it on an African person.And for goodness sake, don’t blame the poor mon-key. If we had only left them in their monkey world, things would be fine now.And don’t blame The Who for trying to change the name. If covid has proven anything to us, it’s that we’re not going to listen to The Who (The World Health Or-ganization, not the rock band) if they suggest we do anything we don’t want to do just to halt the spread of the monkeypox (I can still call it that.)But clade? Just because it makes sense doesn’t mean it makes sense. Welcome to 2022, monkeypox (I can still call it that.) or not.- Mike Barnhardt Monkeypox: ‘I can still call it that’ DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Aug. 18, 2022 - 3Presidential sites Time to Talk about mental health By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise When President Eisen-hower was completing his second term, John Fitzger-ald Kennedy was waiting in the wings, hoping that he would be chosen as the Democratic candidate for president. Richard Nixon was hop-ing to become the Republi-can candidate. Each man was chosen as his parties’ candidate, and the race was on. Quite a race it was. The whole Kennedy family joined the second Kennedy son in campaigning. John Kenne-dy’s mother met with small groups and entertained at teas and so did three of his sisters. His two brothers, Bobby and Ted, went on the campaign trail and spoke to large groups all over the country. John Fitzgerald Kenne-dy won the election in 1960 and became the 35th Pres-ident of the United States. John Fitzgerald Kenne-dy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, on May 29, 1917. The large Ken-nedy family later moved to Bronxville, New York. Mr. Kennedy’s father was quite wealthy so he also bought a large house in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts which is on Cape Cod. The Ken-nedy family still owns that property, and it is not open to the public. The Kennedy house in Brookline, Mass. is usual-ly open to the public, but it is closed through 2022 for renovation and is sched-uled to reopen in the spring of 2023. For more infor-mation about the Kennedy Birthplace, call the Nation-al Park Service which ad-ministers the property aat 617-566-7937.The Brookline Beale Street house is a large three-story house on a quiet street, which was probably a fine place to raise a large family. One can imagine the Kennedy boys playing ball, riding bicycles, and maybe even enjoying a game of touch football in the street. The boys would have been most likely have been joined by their sisters because all of the Kennedy children seemed to enjoy physical activity. The members of the competitive Kennedy Most Kennedy-related sites are in Massachusetts The Kennedy family, and the Presidents young son saluting at his father’s funeral after his assassination in 1963. Jacqueline and President John F. Kennedy. family were: Joe Jr., John (called Jack), Bobby, Ted, Rose Marie (called Rose-mary), Kathleen, Patricia, Eunice, and JeanThe Kennedy family, particularly Jack’s father, wanted one of his sons to be President. He began to groom his first son, Joe Jr., for that role, but Joe got killed when the airplane which he was piloting ex-ploded. Mr. Kennedy then turned his attention to Jack, his second son, who grad-uated from Harvard Uni-versity. After he graduated from Harvard, Jack joined the U.S. Navy. He became the commander of PT 109, which was split wide open by an enemy destroyer. Kennedy swam about three miles pulling any injured sailor along with him to an island. Both the men sur-vived, but Jack Kennedy always suffered from the injuries.John F. Kennedy (Jack) became interested in pol-itics, which no doubt pleased his father. First he sought and won a seat in the U.S. House of Repre-sentatives. He moved on up and won one of Massachu-setts’ Senate seats. Ken-nedy served seven years in the Senate before he ran for President.John Kennedy was a popular young president, and he was able to make good on a number of his promises. In surveys of presidential historians, Kennedy is ranked No. 8. There is no way to know how he would have been ranked if he had lived to complete his four-year term. After he had been in office for about 1,000 days, he and his lovely wife, Jac-queline, who he married in 1953, went to Dallas, Texas. Kennedy’s advisors tried to get him not to go on that trip because they said the atmosphere was toxic in Texas, but the pres-ident was determined to go. He and Jacqueline (called Jackie) went because Jack wanted to shore up his sup-port there. As they were riding in an open convert-ible, a shot rang out and the president fell over in his wife’s lap. The driver real-ized what was happening, and he headed at top speed to a hospital. The President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, died at 12:30 p.m. CST on Nov. 22, 1963. Vice President Lyn-don Johnson was sworn in as the 36th President later that night aboard Air Force One in the presence of his wife, Lady Bird, and Jac-queline Kennedy .My book, “Glimpses Presidents of the United States and Presidential Places,” tells the story of the week following Presi-dent Kennedy’s assassina-tion. “When Air Force One arrived in Washington, Mr. Kennedy’s body was taken to the Naval Hospital at Bethesda, Md., for an au-topsy before it was taken to the White House. After it arrived at the White House, Mr. Kennedy’s casket was placed in the East Room just as President Lincoln’s was almost 100 years ear-lier. After lying in state in the East Room for 24 hours attended by Army Special Forces (Green Be-rets) who were hurriedly brought to Washington from Fort Bragg, Mr. Ken-nedy’s body was carried to the Capitol on a horse-drawn caisson. The only sounds that could be heard as the caisson moved along Pennsylvania Avenue were the sound of the horses’ hooves, including those of the riderless horse, Black Jack, hitting the pavement and the sound of muffled drums. Thousands of peo-ple lined the route to the Capitol, many with tears. Mr. Kennedy’s body lay in state for 24 hours in the Capitol Rotunda, and, during that time, 250,000 people passed by to show their respect. The next day the body was again placed on the caisson and carried to the portico at the White House where Mrs. Kenne-dy joined the procession. She, along with the Presi-dent‘s brothers, Bobby and Ted, and President John-son, his wife and daughters walked behind the caisson as the procession moved to St. Matthew’s Cathe-dral. A total of 220 foreign dignitaries were among the mourners. As the cas-ket was carried down the steps of St. Matthews after the funeral, the President’s 3-year-old son, John, salut-ed—an image that brought the nation to tears. The fi-nal trip for John F. Kenne-dy was again made on the horse-drawn caisson as his body was carried to Arling-ton National Cemetery for burial. After the ceremony at Arlington, Mrs. Kennedy lit an eternal flame on the grave ...”There are two sites be-side the Kennedy Birth-place that can be visited by the public. They are his grave in Ar-lington National Cemetery and the Kennedy Library on Boston Harbor. Put-ting the Kennedy Library seems so appropriate be- cause Jack Kennedy loved the water. That library is a large building, which President Kennedy’s wife, Jacqueline, helped plan. It not only pays tribute to Mr. Kennedy, but also includes much information about the history of the era in which he lived. The Kennedy Presidential Library stands today as a tribute to a man who many Americans felt died much too young. That library is about 800 miles from Mocksville, about 10 miles from the Kennedy Library in Boston to the Kennedy Birthplace in Brookline, Mass., so it is a long trip for Mocks-villians to visit those sights connected to Mr. Kennedy. It is only 357.5 miles to the Arlington Cemetery where President John F. Kennedy was buried and where the eternal flame continues to burn on his grave. There is one other presi-dent, William Howard Taft, buried in the Arlington Na-tional Cemetery; so it is possible to visit two presi-dential sites. By Julie WhittakerFor the Enterprise In March of 2022, the nationwide implementation of 988 was coming. NC Health News reported on the Crisis Hotline rollout. Congress passed the National Suicide Hotline Designation Act of 2020 which created the 9-8-8 hotline. The 9-8-8 mental health crisis number is designed to give people a different option that isn’t routed through law enforcement. State lawmakers passed a budget in June that directs $1.3 million in annual funding for the 988 call cen-ter. Earlier this year, North Carolina received a $3.3 mil-lion federal grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration to help with the launch of 988.Amanda McGough, board president of the N.C. Chap-ter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, is concerned that the crisis response network has not been fully funded throughout every area of the state and the country. There needs to be enough people to answer the phones and respond on the ground in every community, she said.988 was launched on July 16.What has been known as the Suicide Prevention Life-line was updated to enable the use of a short number to call or text, 988; and renamed to be the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. North Carolina contracted with Real Crisis In-tervention headquartered in eastern NC, to manage calls, refer them to trained counselors who begin listening and working with persons regarding their crisis, then work to de-escalate and guide them to mental health resources.If the person needs more help, the counselor can redi-rect the call to a local mobile crisis team of mental health responders. For Davie that means Daymark Recovery Services’ Mobile Crisis Team will learn where to go, and report back their expected availability. The MCT covers several counties. So, they have a window of time to re-spond which depends on their location. If the mobile crisis responders don’t expect to be able to respond in person within two hours, then the call is routed to the 911 center for the location of the caller.Davie County chose not to create a local mental health crisis response team a few years back, when issues with transporting mental health patients were considered by the NC Legislature. These considerations resulted in the 2019 passing of Senate Bill 630. It mandated that mental health crisis plans be developed, and this presented an opportuni-ty to make improvements to the process. But few counties did that, many like Davie put the current plan into writing without making any changes regarding responses to men-tal health patients. Since we had access to the ‘regional’ MCT, it was decided if they could not get here fast enough, then Davie’s law enforcement would still need to respond.The full intent of the 988 initiative is to establish mental health responses without the automatic use of law enforce-ment. A few NC counties developed local mental health crisis teams in a variety of ways and had them working before or by July 2022. But not Davie.Michelle Ivey, chief program officer with Daymark, is serving on a statewide group planning for the implemen-tation of 988. She reports that the Mobile Crisis Team is fully staffed, and ready to respond, but over the past sever-al years they have not received many calls from Davie. A consultant from the group revealed through her, that NC’s 988 counselors will call 911 in the caller’s area, and it will be up to that county’s 911 Center to direct the response.Davie’s Director of 911 Communications, Rodney Pierce says, “From the 911 standpoint, if a person calls 988 directly, they will be speaking to a crisis counselor, based on that evaluation and if a response is deemed nec-essary, they would contact the 911 center and request the appropriate help if needed. If the person dials 911 directly the call would be processed through our emergency medi-cal call taking protocol: Psychiatric /Abnormal Behavior/Suicide based on the particular case and the final coding the approved response would be dispatched.”Sheriff JD Hartman said his department strives to have officers Crisis Intervention Trained soon after they are hired. But he cannot guarantee that a Crisis Intervention Team will be available when there is a call about a mental health crisis. Unfortunately, our sheriff’s department is not finding it possible to have every officer trained using the full 40-hour Crisis Intervention Team course. The newer officers are trained using an alternative 16-hour course, to save time and money. Further, the department’s turnover rate makes it difficult to have officers trained for mental health crisis before they are on the job. This leaves Davie residents experiencing a crisis in the hands of law enforcement, who are not fully trained to ad-dress their needs. More about Crisis Intervention Teams can be learned from “A Best Practice Guide for Trans-forming Responses to Mental Health Crises,” published in 2019.The sheriff and the director of Emergency Services were asked if there are any plans to develop a dedicated trained team for mental health crisis calls, perhaps through the new community paramedics program. Hartman said he could not speak to what another department is planning, “…other than to say that I have always been an advocate for a mobile crisis response team. The issue is and always has been that only law enforcement will respond in a time-ly manner.” Unfortunately, the Director of Emergency Services, which includes the community paramedics pro-gram, did not respond.Furthermore, Ms. Ivey reports; “The state is in the pro-cess of doing an assessment for the MCM teams across the Davie needs to form mental health mobile crisis team Please See Talk - Page 7 4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Aug. 18, 2022 Continued From Page 1to welcome DME racing to our community. Racing today is an extremely high-tech sport and requires a highly-skilled workforce,” said Bralley. A supplier of DME has already located near the future facility. It’s a bittersweet move for Eddinger, who has spent practically every day of his life at 2260 Old Salisbury Road in Winston-Salem. The building has been in his family since 1932, first as his grandfather’s service station and then his father’s motorcycle shop. He grew up working with his father, Mickey Eddinger, owner of Wheels by Mickey, building and repairing motorcycles. So, it was only natural that when they needed custom parts for his drag racing bike, he and his dad would craft them themselves. Other racers began requesting parts, and DME Racing was born. He worked a full-time job and built motorcycle parts at night for five years before the business could sustain him. “I tell my kids, if you get up in the morning and can’t wait to get to work, then you are doing what you are meant to do, and if you put your all into it, success will come.” Promising “quality Jeremy Lynch fabricates a custom fuel cell that will be fitted onto a motorcycle for drag racing.

DME Racing builds its drag racing team’s motorcycles from the ground up with products they design and create in-house. The company is known for custom ground-up drag bike builds, and usually have multiple builds in production at all times. performance products built by racers for racers,” the company produces standard and custom parts such as exhaust systems, frames, and swingarms for a wide range of motorcycles. With an emphasis on motorcycle drag racing, DME Racing employs a group of fabricators who create custom components built to their customer's specifications. Eddinger said that all parts are made from scratch with quality materials. “We can pretty much make anything as far as fabricating and welding steel and aluminum. We take great pride in our company, our commitment to customer service, and in the products we sell."Primarily motorcycle drag racing performance specialists, the company does make some car parts and straightens wheels for automotive dealerships. Eddinger and his business partner, Andy Sawyer, plan to expand the product and service offerings once the company is in its new, expanded facility. Since machining and fabricating are the company’s bread and butter, DME Racing has invested in state-of-the-art equipment to produce the highest level of precision, and a lot of R&D goes into fabricating new parts. It tries to keep everything in-house to have control over the finished product. Sawyer is the programmer, and the company employs six full-time machinists and fabricators. DME Racing is always looking for additional fabricators and welders; anyone interested is invited to contact the company through their website.DME Racing is recognized worldwide and stays booked 6-8 months. Eddinger said the work is steady since the racing season in Australia and Kuwait is opposite that of the US, and racers like to tune up their motorcycles during the off-season. In addition to manufacturing parts, DME Team rider Jason Dunigan takes a win in Pro Street while in competition with XDA at Maryland International Raceway. - Photo by Terrence Belton Racing sponsors two race teams, one that races up and down the East Coast and the other in the UK. They’ve built their teams’ bikes from the ground up, including the engines, with record-breaking success. DME Racing is the home of the Quickest Pro Street Motorcycle in the World running at 6.34 seconds in the quarter-mile.Eddinger no longer races full-time but still spends a fair amount of time at the race track. He and Sawyer tune their team motorcycles and sell at all major race events and don’t plan to slow down. “This is something I’ve always enjoyed doing, so being able to do it for a living is gratifying,” Eddinger said.

FURTHER INFORMATION: To obtain copies of the Environmental Assessment (EA) and FONSI, or for further information, contact: Bill Tew, Business Programs Specialist, USDA Rural Development, (919) 895-3647, Bill.Tew@usda.gov. The EA and FONSI are available for public review electronically upon request. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed project consists of the construction and operation of a 7.5 MW solar facility using utilize solar modules, mounted on a steel rack-ing system which will be anchored into the ground using driven steel piers, to convert the sun’s energy to usable power on a 50-acre tract of wooded and agricultural land located south of Pud-ding Ridge Road and six miles north of the Town of Mocksville, Davie County, North Caro-lina. Approximately 50 acres of the parcel identified as E5-000-00-010 by the Davie County Geographic Information Systems (GIS) website would be disturbed as a result of the construc-tion activities associated with the proposed project. Alternatives considered by the RBS and Perendale Solar, LLC include: No action and Proposed action. The alternatives are discussed in the USDA-Rural Development Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Perendale So-lar, LLC. The RBS has reviewed and approved the EA for the proposed project. The availability of the EA for public review was announced via notice in the following news-paper: The Davie County Enterprise Record on April 14, 2022 and April 21, 2022. A 14-day comment period was announced in the newspaper notices. The EA was also available for pub-lic review at the USDA Rural Development office. There were no comments received during the 14-day comment period. Based on its EA, commitments made by Perendale Solar, LLC, and lack of public comments received, RBS has concluded that the project would have no significant impact (or no impacts) to water quality, wetlands, floodplains, land use, aesthetics, transportation, or human health and safety. Based on available information and after consultation with the NC State Historic Preservation Office, the RBS determined that the proposed project would result in no historic properties affected in accordance with 36 CFR § 800.4(d)(1). The RBS has also concluded that the proposed project is not likely to affect federally listed threatened and endangered species or designated critical habitat thereof. The proposed project would not disproportionately affect minority and/or low-income populations. No other potential significant impacts resulting from the proposed project have been identi-fied. Therefore, RBS has determined that this FONSI fulfills its obligations under the National Environmental Policy Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), the Council on Environmental Quality Regulations (40 CFR §§ 1500-1508), and USDA Rural Development’s Environmental Policies and Procedures (7 CFR Part 1970) for its action related to the project. RBS is satisfied that the environmental impacts of the proposed project have been adequately addressed. RBS’s federal action would not result in significant impacts to the quality of the human environment, and as such it will not prepare an Environmental Impact Statement for its action related to the proposed project. Dated: August 18, 2022 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Aug. 18, 2022 - 5 This is the seventh in a series highlighting the people and organizations behind the named scholarships administered by the Davie Community Foundation. “This week we highlight a scholarship created to preserve the history of the Davie County Training School and a scholarship created by a successful student from the school along with his wife,” said Jane Simpson, foundation president and CEO.“Preserving our history is yet another way that endowments benefit our community. Three students from the Class of 2022 are preparing to leave for college with an investment from these scholarships.“We believe young people need to know something about the people or organizations for whom their scholarships are named. Hopefully, they will feel even more motivated to succeed,” she said.Davie County Training School – Central Davie Class ReunionIn 1925, the Julius Rosenwald Foundation provided the impetus and shared the funding for the construction of the “Colored School” on Campbell Road in Mocksville. Rosenwald School, the first name of the school, began with grades 1-8.By 1934, it had expanded to grade 11, and school year 1946-47 the 12th grade was added. Extra-curricular activities were limited, books were old and smelly and county and state transportation was not available. Magalene Gaither, former student, said that these limitations provided a respect for learning. “You had to do the best with what you had,” she said. “It instilled pride and concentrated attention to skills and tremendous social graces.” Marie Craig Roth stated in her book, “History of Davie County Schools,” that “time goes quickly and unless they are written down and archived somewhere, valuable information is lost forever.” The original Davie County Training School building burned in 2002 and, to be sure that its memories were not lost forever, former students came together to start a scholarship fund which would preserve the memory of this school and the people who learned and taught there. Henry Elton and Brenda Mickles Foote Scholarship in Memory of Henry Lee & Evella Blackburn FooteCharlotteans Henry Elton and Brenda Mickles Foote established their scholarship in memory of Elton’s parents, Henry Lee and Dorothy Evella Blackburn Foote, longtime Davie residents and retirees of Drexel Heritage Furniture. They were strong advocates of education.With strong support and encouragement from his parents, Elton graduated from Davie County Training Elementary School and Central Davie High School. He earned a bachelor’s degree from Winston-Salem State University and an master’s of education from Winthrop University. He retired from Cigna HealthCare and Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools. Brenda is a graduate of Campbell County / Rustburg High School, Rustburg, Va. She earned a bachelor’s degree from Hampton University, and subsequent CPCU and ARM professional certifications. She retired as a commercial insurance underwriting manager. Henry and Brenda hope the scholarship will help others obtain an education, and achieve personal and professional success.

The goal is to recommend to the as-sembly legislation to ensure the quality of life available to NC’s older adults. Winter and spring were spent studying the most pressing challenges facing older adults, considering in-formation and data from the aging experts, and deliber-ating impacts and solutions. NCSTHL members sub-mitted ideas for legislation that could serve to enhance the lives of older adults. A committee is sorting them into one of six categories. Each committee will come up with three proposals. Then each member will deliberate the proposals. At the October General Ses-sion, the NCSTHL will vote to approve the top three to five proposals as its legisla-tive priorities for consider-ation by the NCGA in 2023.• Rosalyn Pettyford (Durham County) is the chair of the Crime/Safety/Security Issues Committee, which focuses on physical, emotional, financial threats.• Former Speaker Rev. Dwight Cartner (Davidson County) is the chair of the Enrichment Opportunities Issues Committee, which addresses gaps faced by those who seek local en-richment such as education, exercise, well-being, and socialization outlets. • Kaye White (Dare County) chairs the General Legislation Issues Commit-tee, which pinpoints issues that do not fall into the other categorie. • The chair of the Health Issues Committee guides the team to identify chal-lenges faced by older adults in healthcare, ranging from Medicaid expansion to the need for doctors and nurs-es specializing in geriatric fields, and programs that advance coverage for social determinants of health, such as Home and Communi-ty-Based Block Gran. • Bill Lamb (Wake County) chairs the Long-Term Care Issues Com-mittee, which addresses shortcomings in the insti-tutional and private setting of long-term care, including resident-to-staff ratios in assisted living and skilled nursing facilities and resi-dent’s rights.• Gayla Woody (Gaston County) is assigned to chair the Service Access Issues Committee, which detects obstacles that stand in the way of older adults who need to access services such as broadband, telehealth, and digital.“We are facing many challenges as we strive to meet the needs and demands of a rapidly growing aging population. North Carolina ranks ninth in the nation of age 60+ population and un-fortunately, we have gaps in our safety nets,” said-NCSTHL speaker, Norma Duncan (Mitchell County). “There are 11,000 older adults on waiting lists for home-based services that would help them remain active, independent and healthy. The chairs of our committees are strong advo-cates and eager to establish legislative priorities that ensure older adults can age with dignity and respect.” For more information about NCSTHL, visit www.ncseniortarheellegislature.org .

If you were having a heart attack or stroke, would you consider response by minimally trained law en-forcement acceptable? Not likely, and it is not acceptable regarding a men-tal crisis because this too can be life threatening. Developing local crisis response teams is not a state responsibility, it is a local responsibility. The CIT manual mentioned above is a free community how-to guide that we can use to help get us started. We must advocate for community mental health services and supports; the best crisis re-sponse should be a top pri-ority. Please join me in ad-vocating for the funding and development of the best and most timely response for mental health crises.Julie Whittaker is with the DC Mental Health Ad-vocates and NAMI NW Piedmont. 8 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Aug. 18, 2022 Davidson-Davie Com-munity College has created the largest healthcare ap-prenticeship in North Car-olina, with Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist sign-ing on as the college’s first healthcare partner under the new agreement.

It was used for small contained fires, vehicle fires, brush fires, hazmat incidents and medical calls. Rescue 12 served the residents of the community well even if its limitations were obvious to those who used it, Miller said. Improvement in rescue capabilities was needed.Opportunity struck in 2018 when a fire department in Pennsylvania decided to AFD ... replace its powerful rescue engine which had 36,000 miles. The Advance Fire Department scooped it up for $50,000. The cost of a new rescue engine would approach a million dollars.The department had done this before when it acquired Ladder 12 with its 85-foot ladder from a department in New Jersey for $25,000. Ladder 12 is insured for the million dollars it would cost to replace. What would become Rescue Engine 1202 would be refitted and re-equipped and the department’s firefighters would be trained to use it and the tools and equipment it carries.Rescue Engine 1202 replaces Rescue 12 which was placed in reserve.The difference between the two is startling, Miller said. Rescue Engine 1202 is 32 feet 6 inches long, 10 feet high and 8 feet 3 inches wide. It can accommodate six firefighters and carries 600 gallons of water. Its compartments hold extrication tools, cribbing, airbags, rope rescue equipment, chemical fire extinguishers, a light tower, saws, hand tools, shovels, rescue jacks and a myriad of other tools and equipment.But Rescue 1202 has another vital function; it can be used as a water point. Utilizing its powerful pump and 5-inch supply hose, it can fill up tankers faster than the built-in pumps. “This is important in areas not served by hydrants where water must be trucked in to fight fires,” Miller said. “Minutes count when a fire can double in size every five minutes.We can do it all now.”He said the equipment and training has paid another dividend to the residents who voted to create a separate Advance area fire district. “Our fire insurance rate has been lowered to a 4 for structures within five miles of the fire house,” he said. The chief suggested residents check with their insurance agent to see if they are entitled to a reduction in homeowner’s insurance.Two other fire departments in Davie County, Mocksville and Smith Grove, are trained and equipped to handle these kinds of emergencies.Because of mutual aid agreements, any fire department in Davie County and beyond can call on any of these three departments for help. “It would be quick to come. Time is of the essence in any emergency,” Miller said. Continued From Page 1the council in September depending on what the planning board does.”Meadwell said conditional zoning allows the applicant to speak in more specifics, including showing a design and placing conditions of uses of the property, which have to be agreed upon.In that May meeting, Lee Rollins, former town manager, explained that by the applicant withdrawing its request, meaning no public hearing and no action taken, it also meant any new request would mean starting from scratch in the application process.“For the sake of the meeting minutes,” Rollins said, “I would like to make sure it’s recorded that the attorney on behalf of the Hillsdale Group that owned the property under consideration for rezoning and the applicant RLM Development, doing business as Homes Urban, sent information to us earlier today that Stir ... they were withdrawing their application for the rezoning.”The specific request called for rezoning part of an overall tract totaling 64.7 acres from Commercial Mixed (CM) to Village Mixed (VM) with the proposed land use of 270 multi-family residential units.The Planning Board had voted 4-1 to recommend denial of the request in its April meeting before it was supposed to go before the council for official action. The same process will be followed in the upcoming meeting with the council having the final say, if it reaches that point.In that planning board meeting, developer Robert Morgan spoke of compliance to the Comprehensive Plan and Map, including diverse housing choices and the transition from commercial to residential uses on both sides of the subject property.However, the Kinderton Village community has stated its overwhelming opposition to the project with concerns related to increased density, water runoff, property values, traffic, access to Kinderton Village amenities and impacts to schools.Residents turned out in force in last Tuesday night’s meeting, with most wearing green shirts that read: “NO! STOP BERMUDA OVERRUN, Tell our town council to vote against rezoning! No more high-density residential apartments.” Several paraded to the podium during the citizens’ comments portion of the meeting to be on the record. One stated: “I live in fear it will happen. It will destroy our community.” Mayor Rick Cross thanked all those who spoke, saying he appreciated “everybody who has taken the time to put their thoughts down and share them with the council.”Meadwell emphasized this will be a “brand new hearing” before the planning board, which will make a recommendation to the council – which makes the final ruling, possibly in the Sept. 13 meeting.In other Bermuda Run news:• The town council adopted a resolution of intent to close Peachtree Lane Extension after receiving a request from Ariston Place and called for a public hearing on Sept. 13.

Sale Ends Aug. 27, 2022 Beat the summer heat by chilling out with one of these frosty, crowd-pleasing treats. Summer doesn’t get any sweeter. I love these old-timey frozen desserts; they’re perfect at the end of a hot summer day. Get creative by using a fa-vorite ice cream flavor combination to elevate these pure and simple ingredients to delicious deserts. Most of to-day’s recipes are easy to assemble – a few are more complicated for those who enjoy a challenge. The good news is each cool and creamy concoction starts with a store-bought, premium brand of ice cream. That makes the prepa-ration easier – and that’s always a good thing. If your ice cream is too hard and you can’t spoon it out – peel off the carton and slice it with a cake knife. You can cut the ice cream into pieces and cover the necessary area. This method works fine unless you need to add an ingredient to the softened ice cream. In that case, you can whip the ice cream in your mixer to soften – then fold in the extra flavors. I served ice cream from Baskin Robbins when I was a teen – my first paying job. Believe me, scooping up that rock-hard ice cream was more challeng-ing than you’d think. Once you have the dessert assembled, keep it covered and frozen until serving time. When ready to enjoy, remove your ice cream treat from the freezer 10 minutes before serving. August is the month when we’re all on board with the adage, “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.” And if we can’t do that – at least, we try to steer clear of a hot oven. I can almost feel the burn after experiencing so many hot and humid days. In life, we can’t always avoid negative situations. We all have times when we’re feeling the heat – as if our feet are being held to a fire. We have worrisome days. Dealing with people can be difficult. But no matter how challenging life seems – we have the blessed assurance that God is always with us. Isaiah 43:2 reads, “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.” (NIV). In difficult situations with others, sometimes we need a period of cooling off – a time to chill. Solomon asked God for wisdom when he became king. Nearing the end of his life, Solomon looked back and wrote of his personal expe-riences hoping to prevent his readers from any future bit-terness. He advised, “If a ruler’s anger rises against you, do not leave your post; calmness can lay great errors to rest.” (NIV) That’s true for all relationships. Hold your post. Try to maintain calmness about yourself. Through all circumstances in life, God will provide us with peace of mind – we can turn our worries into prayer. In Philippians, Paul writes of the joy he found from dedi-cating his life to serving Christ. Despite his many troubles, Paul considered everything in life a loss compared to the greatness of knowing Jesus Christ. Paul said, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (NIV)So, on those days when you can’t steer clear and have to handle the heat, know that that this too, shall pass.

Vada graduated from Mocks-ville High School in 1942, and Draughn Business College in Winston Salem, NC. After col-lege, she worked for Wachovia Bank & Trust in Winston.She married Harry Lewis Beck on June 27, 1945, celebrat-ing 66 years of marriage before his death in 2011.After five years as a stay-at-home mother, she returned to work on Steve’s first day of school, dropping him off to begin work.

They lost 48-9 to Hough, won 21-13 over West Rowan, lost to Da-vie, won 33-14 over Cox Mill, lost 45-19 to Hick-ory Ridge, won 42-7 over South Iredell, lost 33-13 to Providence, won 50-14 over West Cabarrus, won 14-6 over Kannapolis and won 14-0 over Lake Norman. In the first round of the playoffs, they fell 44-26 to Myers Park. While the War Eagles also went 6-5 to record their third winning season in a row, they stumbled to fifth in the eight-team Central Piedmont Con-ference at 3-4. They won 56-30 over West Rowan and 42-28 over Lake Nor-man before taking down Mooresville. Then they won 73-28 over Reyn-olds, lost 59-21 to East Forsyth, lost 52-14 to Reagan, won 56-49 over Mt. Tabor, lost 35-14 to West Forsyth, won 55-0 over Parkland and lost 62-28 to Glenn to close the regular season. In the first round of the playoffs, they were trounced 61-28 by Asheville. The War Eagles have several playmakers on offense and they have a giant kicker in Palmer Williams. If the new 3-4 defensive scheme that they installed in the off-season works, they will create a headache for opponents. The new defense is hoping to make up for last year’s mistakes (62 touchdowns allowed). “It’s going real well,” defensive coordinator Blaine Nicholson said. “It’s different looks for the offense to have to di-agnose very quick. We’re sending pressure from dif-ferent areas. We’ll bring a lot of funky packages, different blitz angles and mix our coverages up a little more. It sounds like we’re doing a lot more, but it’s actually a lot less. We can call the defense a lot faster. We’ve short-ened up a lot of the calls. “When you have a tough year on defense like we did last year, with a lot of youth and inex-perience, we took a step back and said: ‘OK, how can we make this de-fense better for our kids and put them in better situations to succeed?’ So we retooled as a staff, moved some players and coaches around, and we think we’ve got some-thing that’s definitely better than what we put on the field last year.”And then: “We’re go-ing to be better than we were last year (on de-fense). How much better can we be? Can we take a big jump to where we win a couple of games because the defense is playing well and the of-fense isn’t having to go for 40 or 50 points?”The team speed is one of the most exciting as-pects of the ‘22 squad. “We’ve got some abso-lute burners - on offense and defense,” Nicholson said. “(Running back) Markel Summers is a muscular dude, but he can absolutely take the top off. You’ve got (receiv-er) Bryan Argueta. We’ll take some deep shots with him. You’ve got (quarterback) Ty Miller. Ty is crazy fast. You’ve got (outside lineback-er) Ethan Silvey. You’ve got (running back) Taye Maddox. You’ve got (cornerback) Willie Pur-vis. That’s six guys right there. I don’t know if they all run track, but they ab-solutely should be in the 100-meter dash.”Davie leads the Mooresville series 17-14-1. Go get ‘em War Eagles!

By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Last year Davie’s offense put up 39.8 points per game, 62 touchdowns and scored 21-plus points in nine of 11 outings. With talents like quarterback Ty Miller, run-ning back Markel Summers and receiver Brodie Smith, the War Eagles should be able to keep the offense humming in 2022. Miller, a 6-2, 195-pound junior, has the perfect quar-terback profile for a spread offense. He blends a big arm with great wheels. In other words, he is a stud. The truth is Miller was ready for varsity as a soph-omore, but he had to bide his time behind Alex Summers, who delivered one of the greatest passing careers of all time, ranking tied for third in career TD passes (44) and fourth in career completions (353) and ca-reer passing yards (4,504). Miller got scarce playing time on Fridays, attempting just seven passes while com-pleting six of them. Forced to play on Thursdays, he was a man-child on the JV team. But A. Summers is gone and now it’s Miller Time. “Our offense is going to be a little different just due to the fact that we have a du-al-threat quarterback,” head coach Tim Devericks said. “We have some different things that we’re doing this year because of what he’s able to do.”Coaches gush about his ability to beat the defense in different ways. He can plow between the tackles. He can be an east-west threat out-side the pocket. And he can sling it all over the place. “Man, there’s something new every day that makes you go: ‘Holy cow,’” De-vericks said. “Whether it’s throwing off platform or making a read or a little sub-tle movement that looks so effortless and his athleticism takes over.”“He’s really starting to understand the offense and make plays with his arm and his legs,” offensive co-ordinator Matt Gould said. “We were joking when we were watching film today. Coach Nick (Blaine Nichol-son) was standing about 45 yards back and he still got a post thrown behind him, so Ty can definitely make any throw. (Nicholson) thought he was out of range and wouldn’t affect the play. One of his strengths that we haven’t had in a few years: If the pocket breaks down, he’s able to make a play with his legs or his arm if something opens up downfield. He’s one of the best athletes on the whole team. I mean, if he wasn’t as good at playing quarterback, we could put him at receiver or safety and he’d be one of the best receivers or safeties that we have.”The War Eagles’ poten-tial headache: If Miller goes down, the backup QB is a mystery. So they will keep their fingers crossed and hope Miller can stay healthy. If he does, it’s going to be fun to watch. “He’s learning to take what the defense gives him and not try to use his arm (strength) every single play,” Gould said. “I think where he’s shown the most growth is being willing to take those 5- and 10-yard completions and take the big plays when they present themselves.” It’s Miller time Junior QB has an arm and some wheels By Brian PittsEnterprise Record All eyes were focussed on Tate Carney from 2019-21, the star running back leaving Davie ranked No. 1 in career touchdowns (79) and No. 2 in career rushing yards (4,415). While that’s big shoes to fill, Markel Summers is a worthy successor to Davie’s running back legacy. In fact, Summers and quarterback Ty Miller are clearly poised to be an excellent one-two Summers poised for big year at RB punch in the backfield. Last year as a sopho-more, Summers flashed real potential while averaging 9.3 carries per game as Car-ney’s backup. “Last year he was always in Tate’s ear and asking Tate questions and learning the game from Tate,” offensive coordinator Matt Gould said. Summers got a lot of game experience in 2021. In his varsity debut, he ran for 85 yards in a win over West Rowan. He rushed for 138 yards in a win over Reynolds, for 77 in a loss to East Forsyth and for 104 in a win over Parkland. He finished with 572 yards on 93 carries and scored eight touchdowns. The 6.1 yards-per-carry average ranks 22nd in the Davie record book. In the offseason, Sum-mers was a workout beast. “He was in my weight training class in the second semester,” head coach Tim See Summers - Page B7 The quarterback is Ty Miller.

By Brian PittsEnterprise Record At wide receiver, Davie lost significant production to graduation. Za’haree Mad-dox, Zymere Hudson and Tate Carney - three of the top seven of all time in terms of receptions - are gone. Don’t fret, Davie fans. The cupboard is not bare. From quarterback to running back to receiver, Davie’s offense has the right ingredients to create a delicious recipe. That reci-pe includes senior receiver Brodie Smith. As a varsity sophomore, Smith was a backup running back to Carney. In spot duty he ran 40 times for 268 yards, an outstanding 6.7 yards-per-carry average. As a junior, he played receiver in the shadows of Maddox/Hudson, but he made the most of his opportunities and produced 40 catches for 566 yards and five touch-downs.After seeing glimpses of his talent for two seasons, Smith (6-0, 185) enters his senior season as a bud-ding star. “Brodie has been waiting for this,” offensive coordinator Matt Gould said. “Last year he wasn’t the featured guy because we had Zymere and Za’haree. Brodie is ready to be the fea-tured guy. He’s been making plays all spring and summer. He’s also stepped up into the leadership role. Brodie and Ty (Miller, the quarterback) are our captains and they are true leaders. They make sure everybody is doing right and making sure we’re up to our standards.”“Brodie is a mix of some guys from the last couple of years,” head coach Tim Devericks said. “He’s got (Jack Reynolds’) shiftiness, but he’s also got Zymere’s hands and playmaker ability. We’re also not afraid to put him in the backfield and do some things there.”Last year as a sopho-more, Evan York played one JV game before getting pulled up to varsity. After contributing 10 catches in 2021, he stands poised to be one of the main guys this fall. At 6-0 and 200 pounds, he’s a tremendous talent with all the physical attributes. “Evan is still growing,” Devericks said. “When you look at his physical abilities, everyone would be like: ‘Yeah, we want him on our team.’”“We’re looking for big things from him,” Gould said. “He’s a big, physical guy. He’s not scared to go over the middle and make contested catches. He’s got the size that every college is looking for. He would go with Ty for their own work-outs in the morning before school back in the spring. He’s gotten a lot bigger and stronger, and you can definitely tell he’s physically there.”As a junior, Aidan Fro-elich averaged a whopping 23.8 yards per catch. While he only had five catches, he’s ready for a bigger role as a senior. “He didn’t have a lot of catches last year, but he made some big ones,” Gould said. “There was one game where he had two or three third-down conversions. He’s a senior and he’s ready to step up.” “Aidan plays a spot that is vitally important,” De-vericks said. “He might not be the first target all the time, but if they’re trying to take away something else, Aidan’s spot is the one that will be open. You have to be a selfless person to play that. The thing I love about Aidan, he’s become a leader. He’s a naturally quiet kid, but I’ve heard him talk more this summer than I probably have the last three years combined.”Bryan Argueta scarcely played as a junior, but keep an eye on this deep-threat blazer.“He played the same position as Za’haree, so it was tough for him to get on the field,” Gould said. “He’s probably in the top three for fastest guys on the team, so we’re looking for him to take the top off the defense. He’s one of the hardest workers on the team. We had a water break the other day and he was over there by himself working releases. He wasn’t going to take a break; he wanted to keep working.”“He’s always had the speed,” Devericks said. “He has bided his time and now is his time to shine.”The depth here should be solid. Sophomore Brad-dock Coleman flashed as a JV freshman, making four catches for 84 yards in a win over Reynolds and turning in a seven-catch, 212-yard explosion in a 49-42 loss to Reagan. “We’re expecting Brad- dock to step up,” Gould said. “He can play multiple po-sitions. If somebody needs a break, he can step up at multiple spots. He’s stepped his game up this offseason.”Junior Grey Deal had moments of excellence for last year’s JV, turning in six catches for 164 yards in a 36-24 win over Mt. Tabor and three grabs for 138 yards in a 70-52 win over West Forsyth. “He made some big catches on JV,” Gould said. “He can fill in if we need him.”One of the defense’s cor-nerstones, senior Willie Purvis, is doubling up at receiver. “He’s been getting a few reps to give Argueta a blow,” Gould said. “He’ll be our only two-way guy.” Brodie Smith a budding star at receiver The receivers, from left: Braddock Coleman, Brodie Smith, Willie Purvis, Bryan Argueta, Aidan Froelich and Evan York.

By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie’s offense has dangerous weapons in the backfield and out wide. If the offensive line comes together, watch out. The War Eagles averaged 35, 41 and 40 points the past three seasons, and the 2022 unit could be another formidable attack. But the foundation of any offense begins up front. That’s where Davie is ex-pected to start one senior, two juniors and two soph-omores. Yes, that’s a young offensive line, but that o-line has quite a bit of varsity experience and it provided optimism during the offsea-son and early on in practice. “I like where we’re at,” offensive coordinator Matt Gould said. “We’re excited about the group we have up front and skill-wise. It looks promising.”“They have put in a lot of work during the spring and summer, trying to gel together,” head coach Tim Devericks said of the OL. The lone senior among five projected starters is Charlie Frye (6-0, 210), who manned center last year but has moved to right tackle. “We want to be athletic at the tackles,” Gould said. “Charlie is always reliable.”Although Frye’s the smallest of the five first-teamers, he oozes in-tensity and he never, ever takes a play off. O-line is big and agile “Charlie is a multi-sport athlete (along with wres-tling) who can use lever-age,” Devericks said. “He has a tenacious attitude. He’s always willing to com-pete.”There are other quali-ties that distinguish Frye. Players like him are ones that every team wants on its roster. “I can say: ‘Hey Charlie, take the group. I want you to work on this because I’ve got to go take care of that,’” Devericks said. “You know it’s going to get done at a high intensity and he’s going to hold his teammates accountable. It’s really awe-some to have somebody like that that’s had experience at the varsity level and in big games.”Two others come in with varsity starting experi-ence: Evan Froelich, a 6-3, 235-pound junior at right guard, and Jackson Powers, a 6-5, 235-pound sophomore at left tackle. Devericks says both can consistently get the job done. “Evan took off one year (as a freshman),” Dever-icks said. “I think he really missed the game and came back to it - and obvious-ly we’re glad he did. You talk about a kid who hasn’t missed a thing. Last year he was kind of thrown to the fire, but he took it, ran with it and that experience is in-valuable. He’s learning two positions (guard and tackle) to help the offensive line. “Jackson is growing into his body. He never missed a day and he’s willing to do double duty with basketball and football, which has been really impressive. Because he’s so athletic, he’s able to pick up multiple fronts and stunts and blitzes and different angles, and he has the foot quickness from bas-ketball that helps him there.”The center, Evan Cope-land, was sidelined for the entire football/wrestling seasons in 2021-22 because of a shoulder injury that required surgery. His return is a really big deal. The ju-nior’s an athletic specimen at 6-3, 310. “We got bigger right away because Evan is back,” Gould said. “Getting Evan back ob-viously helps the situation,” Devericks said. “It’s never easy for a kid to go through the rehab, finally get cleared to lift weights and work you way back into it. He has been chomping at the bit. He’s a big man. I’ll tell you this: We had to dig deep in our shoulder pads collection to find one that fit him be-cause he’s got such a wide back.”The left guard, sopho-more Ryder Strickland (5-9, 260), was thrown to the wolves last winter when he wrestled heavyweight as a freshman. He kept getting up, made steady improve-ment and never backed down. You root for a guy like that. And like Frye, he plays with an edge. “He’s made huge strides,” Gould said. “He’s gotten a lot stronger. He worked real hard in the weight room. We weren’t sure if he was going to be a varsity player, but he stepped up in the spring and summer.”“He’s similar to Charlie with that bulldog mentality,” Devericks said. “It’s like: ‘Yeah, I know I’m not 6-5, but I’ve got a strong base and I’m going to work and work and work and not miss a workout.’”Senior Angel Mondragon (5-10, 240) will be a useful sixth man at guard. “He was in our wildcat packages last year,” Gould said. “When we put in the sixth OL, he was able to step up. He’ll be able to rotate in at guard and again he can be that extra lineman if we put in any heavy packages.”It looks like juniors Kev-in Lazaro (5-11, 260) and Chad Russell (6-1, 285) could be next in the pecking order. “We have some depth,” Gould said. “Lazaro can play guard or center.” Attorneys Tammy Fleming & Brian Williams offer legal services in practice areas focused in: • Real Estate • Social Security Disability • Elder Law • Estate Planning • Estate Administration • Personal Injury 284 South Main Street Mocksville 336-477-2529 FlemingandWilliamsLaw.com GO WAR EAGLES! By Brian PittsEnterprise Record In 2014, Davie’s defense featured linebackers Chris-tian Launius and James Boyle. The 2015-16 units were anchored by Boyle and Cody Hendrix. In 2017, Hendrix and Matthew King swarmed. And in 2018, King and Peyton Hampton were the teeth in the middle of the defense. Davie was down at line-backer the past three sea-sons, but a stout linebacker corps has returned for 2022. Between inside and outside linebacker, there’s 10 guys duking it out for four start-ing spots. “We haven’t had (in-side) linebacker depth in quite a few years,” head coach Tim Devericks said. “So having the ability to play six guys - six quality Defense has stout linebacker corps See LB - Page B7 guys - really helps our team because collectively they’re a group that flies around. They know: ‘Hey, I’ve got to perform.’ Sometimes having pressure from people behind you makes you focus in and perform a little bit better.”“We’ve got athleticism across the board at all four linebacker spots, and we’ve got playmakers,” defensive coordinator Blaine Nichol-son said. “They can set the tone for us. We’re going to be a little bit young up front (on the d-line) and we’re go-ing to be a little bit young in the back (in the secondary), but those four seniors in the middle are really going to help us out a bunch.

Continued From Page B4Devericks said. “Man, he knows this is his time com-ing up and he was going to make sure he did everything he could to get as strong and as quick and as fast as he could. He’s gone to multiple camps.”The 5-11, 180-pounder is a mix of thunder and light-ning, meaning he is physical enough to run through tack-les and fast enough to blow by defenders. “He’s a really physical runner,” Devericks said. “And he can take angles away and outrun you.”“He’s a playmaker,” Gould said. “He’s one of the fastest guys on the team. He’s got game-breaking speed and he’ll make a huge run when a crease opens up. He’s definitely prepared coming into this year.”•••There’s some intrigue into what to expect from Summers’ backup. It looks like Davie has unearthed a gem in junior Taye Maddox, who decided to return to football after not playing the past two years. “COVID is kind of what got him,” Devericks said. “He came up as a freshman - that’s when we had like 20 people working out in pods during the summer - but he ended up having a medical procedure done. We played that spring (of 2021) and we couldn’t get him back by the spring. Last year he wasn’t Summers ... Continued From Page B6hand in everything. They have their hand in the run fits. They have their hand in the pass coverage. We’ve got some guys who can most definitely make some plays.”Senior Mason Shermer (6-2, 200) is a beast. He plays outside linebacker like a pit bull protecting its turf. “Mason is the real deal,” OLB coach Perry Long said. “He’s got good speed. He can defend the flats in pass coverage and he can rush off the edge. He’s the outside linebacker that you want to have in this (3-4) defense. I’m telling you, he’s unreal. If you lollygag a pass over there in the flats, he’s going to pick your stuff off.”“He’s a very smart guy,” LB ... able to play. With help from people from our school, caring for kids and trying to steer them in the right direction, he started hanging out with some of the football guys. I’m so proud of him. Since we started this sum-mer, he didn’t hardly miss a day. If he did have to miss, he’d call me. You love to see a young man turn a corner and make great decisions and know what’s good for them.”Maddox gives the of-fense an electric weapon. This 5-6, 140-pounder is so quick he can dodge the rain. “We’re real excited about him,” Gould said. “He’s really stepped up this sum-mer. He can definitely spell Markel and be a big-play threat. We envision him being kind of like Markel was last year behind Tate. We can put him in and be just fine. If we can get him the ball out in space, he can take it to the house just as well as anybody. He only weighs 140, but he’s sturdy for his size. They’re going to have to try to pull his flag to get to him.”“Holy smokes,” Dever-icks said when asked about Maddox’s speed. “When he’s running, sometimes he might not know when the brakes are coming on and you better get out of the way. We haven’t had a guy with that kind of speed in quite a while. His skill level is phenomenal.” “Selling Quality Products Your Home Deserves” 336-998-9789 www.mulchnmore-nc.com •Pine Mixed Mulch •Hardwood Mulch •Pine Bark Nuggets •Dyed Mulch •River Rock •Mortar Sand •River Sand •Topsoil •Soil Conditioner •White Rock •Driveway Gravel Call us today!

That’s no longer the case. This year the War Eagles have the physicality to match up in the trenches. “Last year our defensive line averaged around 205 pounds,” defensive coor-dinator Blaine Nicholson said. “Now our average is like 255.”“Where last year we might have been undersized, our size on the DL has vastly improved,” head coach Tim Devericks said. “Yeah, they might be young in age, but they are pretty strong kids.”Junior Matty Warner (6-3, 245), who played a lot of varsity snaps last year, will play a major role. “He’s gotten way better and I look forward to some big things from him,” Nich-olson said.Although Warner is the only d-lineman with sub-stantial varsity experience, he’s surrounded by guys with physical attributes. Sophomores Grayson Cay-ton (6-0, 270) and Landon Barber (6-0, 240) could become factors right away in their first varsity seasons. “Grayson made a lot of plays for us on JV last year,” Nicholson said. “He’s a big, wide body. He’s a hard guy to move. He uses his hands well and has good feet.

D-line has space eaters That’s very encouraging for a sophomore. “Landon is probably the strongest guy on the team. He’s going to be a tough one to move as well.”Warner, Cayton and Bar-ber have plenty of help around them. Seniors Hunt-er Dyson (6-3, 245), Zayne Smith (5-10, 175) and Gavin Taylor (6-2, 180) and juniors Trey’von Doulin (6-3, 210) and Brandon Wood (5-10, 220) are solid options up front. “Hunter is going to come off the bench and get a lot of reps,” Nicholson said. “We like to rotate our defensive linemen. We’ve got plenty of bodies up there and we’ve got plenty of bodies for different situations. There are some young dudes that could potentially come up and help us, but you may not see them early on in the season.”•••There’s clear talent at the linebacker spots. The d-line has several space-eaters. If the War Eagles can just play adequately against the pass, this unit could be much improved after surrendering 27 TD passes in 2021. The secondary’s head-liner is senior cornerback Willie Purvis. The third-year starter is one of the team’s foundational pieces. “They’re all young (in the secondary) other than Willie,” Nicholson said. “He’s our go-to guy. He’s athletic enough that I think he might get some snaps on offense (at receiver).”“I’ve really been proud of Willie for how he’s grown in his leadership,” Dever-icks said. “He’s trying to bring these younger guys along. Having traveled that road before, he can offer pointers and expertise that he’s learned along the way.”Although they don’t have a ton of experience under the bright lights, junior safety Eli Branham and sophomore cornerback Landon King will not be ambushed Friday at Mooresville. Both are expected to play important roles. “Eli played a lot of (var-sity) snaps as a sophomore,” Nicholson said. “He was way undersized and he went to work in the offseason and put on about 20 pounds of muscle. He’s a hard-nosed dude.“King is an athletic bas-ketball player who got some (varsity) snaps last year.”Juniors Reid Nail and Junior Romero and sopho-more Connor Hood will be in the mix. “Connor’s a versatile DB who can play all four positions,” Nicholson said. “You’ll see him out there. Reid is a really smart player. “You’ll probably see all of them. They’re all going to get a bunch of reps. We’ve got some guys that I’m not sure yet if they’re going to be varsity or JV. It’s young talent that could potentially play on Friday nights.” Nicholson said. “We expect him to be flying all over the field.”Senior Ethan Silvey (6-0, 175), who has moved from cornerback to outside linebacker since 2021, is a unique talent. “Ethan is an elite ath-lete,” Nicholson said. “He’s good physicality-wise as well. He’s a weight-lifting, workout warrior. He allows a defensive coordinator to do different things because he’s so versatile. He can fit on the run really, really well. We’re excited to see what he can do in the pass rush, what he can do in the run fits and what he can do in man coverage. He’s got elite tools, man.”“Ethan has flourished,” Devericks said. “His ability to use his speed and play in space is awesome.”It starts with Shermer and Silvey, but it continues with seniors Justin Hayes, John Stokes, Will Burris and Chase Carson and juniors Zack Banks, Ian Boger, Zan-der Richardson and Jerred Alexander. Hayes (6-1, 205), who was third in 2021 with 70 tackles in 10 games, is the top returning tackler. “He’s gotten faster in the offseason and he’s al-ways ready to mix it up,” Nicholson said of the inside linebacker. “Justin is another guy who can run and get to the ball,” Devericks said. Stokes (5-11, 195) has blossomed after moving from defensive end to inside ‘backer. “John was one of our most aggressive players last year,” Nicholson said. “He’s one of those guys that plays with his hair on fire. We’ve put him in the middle of the field so he can make more plays - as opposed to being a defensive end where he was only on one side.”Banks (5-10, 195), Burris (5-8, 160), Boger (6-0, 160) and Carson (5-10, 185) put the defense in a great situation at inside ‘backer. Richardson (5-10, 170) and Alexander (6-4, 175) are viable options at OLB. “Banks and Burris will be key contributors,” Nich-olson said. “We’ll play all 10 of those guys,” Devericks said. The defensive backs, from left: Will Burris, Gavin Reese, Connor Hood, Willie Purvis, Landon King, Reid Nail, Junior Romero and Eli Branham.

B8 ‑ DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Aug. 18, 2022 Catch 22 Davie high football Go War eagles! By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The presence of Palmer Williams should give Davie the edge in one-third of the game - special teams - just about every time out. The 6-3, 180-pound Baylor com-mitment is hugely gifted at kicking and punting. “He’s always asking to kick a deep one,” offensive coordinator Matt Gould said of the senior. “He’s impres-sive. He went to camps and was voted the top kicker in a lot of them and was able to get those (college) offers.”Williams has made major strides as a punter. “He’s been booming it,” Gould said. “We did punts the other day and his first one flew over where we had the returners set up. So he can definitely launch it - field goals and punts. His punts are a lot more consis-tent. He worked on being consistent with his drop and his leg swing. He’s definite-ly improved in all of that.”“The first time we got to see him punt with the punt team this summer, I think it went into orbit,” head coach Tim Devericks said. “When he hits it, you’re like: ‘Holy cow.’”If Davie’s offense faces fourth down at the oppo-nent’s 35 or 40, Devericks will have three choices - go for it, ask Williams to pooch it or let No. 28 go for three points. “He’s someone I’ve grown to trust,” Devericks said. “He’s always had con-fidence in himself, but I’ve seen him work hard and he’s earned that trust.”How much hard work has Williams put in since last season? “We’re talking about a young man who works on a skill even when he’s par-ticipating in track,” Dever-icks said. “He’ll go to track practice and then go work on his punting. He’ll go to track practice and then go work on his kickoffs. He’s a testament to hard work.” Expect booming kicks from Williams Sports Upcoming Games Wednesday, Aug. 17Davie JV/varsity soccer at home vs. S.

Now, there is something else he thinks about in late August, as the season’s first high-school football games are being played: the great fishing that will crank up later on in the waters off his home in Little River, S.C.Illing spent nine seasons as head football coach at Davie High School in Mocksville, winning a record 81 wins against just 38 losses. Before that, he put in six years as an assistant at Da-vie and 10 as an assistant at Reynolds. A native of Summer-ville, S.C., who was Wake Forest’s placekicker in the 1984 and 1985 seasons, Illing moved to the Grand Strand in 2013 and spent six seasons as head coach at Socastee High School before deciding that he couldn’t be a head coach and give his players the time and attention they needed as his second ca-reer took off: as a charter fishing captain.Illing has run Salty Fin Charters (www.saltyfin-charter.com) since 2018, when the fishing success he had with a neighbor got him thinking about running his 27-foot center console boat for fun and profit. After the 2018 season, with fishing flour-ishing, he bought a bigger boat, started promoting his business and realized he couldn’t give both fish-ing and football full-time attention. He resigned after compiling a 30-36 record, stayed at Socastee as a driver’s ed teacher, heading offshore for tuna, dolphin, wahoo, king mackerel and grouper.He missed football enough to return to Socast-ee as an assistant coach in 2020 and has been able to prowl the sidelines on Friday nights and head for popular nearshore and offshore fishing spots like the General Sherman reef, the Jungle, the Same Ol’ and the Blackjack Hole on weekends, holidays and during the summer ever since. The best fishing is normally after football season ends. “I was a waterbug growing up – around the (Santee Cooper) lakes and the (Cooper) river,” Illing said. “My best friend had a lake house, and we were always walking to the river to fish. And my dad was a big bass fisherman; he owned a bass boat and we fished all the time.“It wasn’t until I met my wife, and her dad introduced me to saltwater fishing, that I decided I had to think bigger.”While at Davie, Illing owned a 20-foot center console boat that would occasionally take “iron man” trips – leaving Mocksville as soon as a Friday night game was in the books, driving to the coast, fishing all day Saturday and driving back Sunday, arriving in time for the afternoon coaches’ meeting.His first year in South Carolina, he sold the 20-foot boat and replaced it with a 27-foot center console. He kept the boat on an empty lot next to a house he was renting; when he and his wife bought a house, he wound up with a neighbor who loved to fish.“He fished with me a lot, and he told me that he spent thousands of dollars every year taking his clients fishing on charters, but he caught more fish with me,” he said. “He wanted to pay me to take his clients, so I got my captain’s license and start-ed running charters. He still takes about three trips with me with his clients every summer. “I started the business the next year (2018), my sixth year coaching down here. I had some people who would go, so I decided to start a real charter business and start advertising. I had to make a decision. It was taking too much time coaching to really do it right, and I just couldn’t cheat the kids, so I made the decision to give up coaching. Being a head coach is a lot of fun – I en-joyed it – but my passion for fishing took over.”Illing sold the 27-foot boat and replaced it with a 35-foot center console with twin 350 HP Yamaha outboards, enabling him to make the 65- to 80-mile trips to his favorite offshore fishing spots in 1½ to 2 hours. Even when he’s fishing king mackerel in the fall, about 15 to 20 miles off the beach, he wants to get there in a hur-ry. “I want to spend more time fishing, so we’re going to get there fast,” he said.Illing spent one season out of coaching, missed it terribly, and returned as an assistant.“I didn’t like being on campus and not being involved,” he said. “And I didn’t think they needed a coach on campus who wasn’t coaching.”Illing put more than 2,000 hours on his out-board engines through the spring of 2021, and with supply chain issues eliminating the chances of getting new engines for at least a year, he sold the 35-foot boat in April and started chartering out of Ocean Isle Fishing Center across the state line in North Carolina, fishing on OIFC boats. “The king mackerel were slow this summer – very scarce,” he said. “I had a 40-pounder last week that a barracuda got a chunk of before we got him in the boat. We’ve had good fishing for Spanish mackerel this summer, after they were scarce the previous summer. Wahoo, tuna and Mahi (dolphin) are my favorites, but I like to bottomfish and catch grouper. We’ve caught several sailfish, and we’ve hooked a couple of blues (marlin), but we haven’t gotten one to the boat yet.”Illing is thinking about retiring altogether, giving fishing his full attention, but he’s still on the faculty at Socastee this year.“I’m getting close (to retiring),” he said. “It’s getting harder and harder to go back (to school) on that first day. But I’m feeling that water. I enjoy coaching football, but there’s nothing like a screaming (fishing) reel.” Former War Eagle Head Football Coach Doug Illing loves fishing and being on the water.

Stat. § 45-21.16(b)(2)]. Upon termination of a rental agreement, the tenant is liable for rent due un- der the rental agreement prorated to the effective date of the termi- nation.
