It requires a communi-ty project.Anna, a student at David-son-Davie Community Col-lege, decided to construct a therapeutic garden at The Dragonfly Children’s Advoca-cy Center in Mocksville.Simple enough, right?She learned quickly that bringing an idea into fruition takes time and effort.The first obstacle was the site. It was overgrown with vines and other groundcovers, trees that were at the end of their lives. “The first obstacle was how much longer the clearing of the garden area took than I originally thought,” she said. “I had to schedule additional workdays to continue working on clearing the area, and this threw me behind schedule ear-ly on.”It didn’t help that two of her volunteers didn’t pan out, so she had to find others.Anna said her next obsta-cle was finding donations of materials. “This was frustrat-ing as I needed to make my-self available when they were available.” A student and also an employee, finding that time was difficult. Her employer helped by offering an adjusted work schedule.“I overcame these obstacles by remaining flexible and con-tinuing to provide communica-tion with my team,” Anna said.

Ms. Bonnie’s Garden By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record County commissioners last month approved an amend-ment to its zoning ordinance that would allow Farmington Meat Processing to remain open.This month, it clarified that decision.When the matter came be-fore the board in August, the planning board had recom-mended one amendment, while planning staff recommended another. Commissioner Rich-ard Poindexter made the mo-tion to approve as submitted, not clarifying if he meant what the planning board had recom-mended or what staff had rec- County OKs new rules for selling local farm products ommended.County Attorney Ed Vogler brought the issue up at the next meeting, saying it was confus-ing to the public. The wording “raised on premises” was in the planning board’s recommendation for businesses that sell farm prod-ucts not in a zoning jurisdic-tion that allows such sales. The “raised on premises” wording was deleted from the staff’s recommendtion.It means that businesses can operate outside the normal zoning ordinance that sell farm products. Farmington Meat Processing sells North Caroli-na products, but was found to be in violation of the county zoning ordinance.

We considered the traditional approach of a conventional cas-ket burial as well as the option of cremation. I started to do some research and discovered that there was another less-selected option of what is known as a “Green Burial.” Green burials are based on a concept that all the remains, including the vessel containing the body and its contents, will become natural additions of the earth. As the “green” suggests, it is an environmentally friendly way that takes place in a natural setting and cares for the land as well. As I researched the options, I discovered that the embalming process, the vault, and the casket offer little or no benefit to Mother Nature, but in fact produce a toxic sludge that may last for years, decades, or even centuries. Further, the cremation process results in air-polluting ash that has little or no biological benefit, and requires enough energy to run the average car almost 5,000 miles.Green burials take place in a conservation environment where the cemetery becomes a living natural area that can be shared by all, and hosts not only funerals but weddings, picnics, hiking, and other group events, and many times become a place for a casual stroll in the afternoon or eve-ning. There are presently two such sites in North Carolina, one in Asheville and one in the Raleigh area, and that may be a drawback to some. However, there are several other sites being planned or developed, including one in our area. We selected the Asheville site, Carolina Memorial Gar-dens, because of our love for the mountains. We met with the director there, toured the facility, and selected our sites.Green burials can be done with a coffin, wooden box, shroud, or other vessel for the body, and some actually use no vessel at all, just the body. Since embalming is not a part of the preparation process, the body is taken to a funeral home where it is prepared for viewing or a celebration of life as we selected. It is then placed in the burial vessel and after any family arrangements are concluded, transported to the burial site. The burial site opens the grave, prepares the area for the burial ceremony and then the burial party may actually close the grave as part of the ceremony. No plastics, metals, or other non-biodegradable are permitted in the grave, but natural flowers, stuffed animals, pictures, etc. are usually acceptable. To complete our pre-planning, we then started to identify a local funeral home that would support the green burial concept. Much to our surprise, most of the local firms were not interested. (Could it be because we selected an option that was thousands of dollars less that what they offered?) One firm, however was interested in hearing about the pro-cess and we set up a meeting with the owners, Carl and Kim Lambert. After our initial meeting they were so excit-ed about the concept that they made an appointment with the director at Carolina Memorial Sanctuary and drove to Asheville to visit the site that very weekend. Since then, both Carl and his wife Kim have been a true blessing to our family in their support, service, and compassion. They have also championed the green burial concept.On Saturday, Sept. 10, I laid my wife of 29 years to rest in her beautiful willow casket near a bubbling brook over-looking a bucolic meadow complete with horses, cows, and sheep and with the grave facing the majestic mountains to the West. Someday when God is ready for me, I will rest beside her. I’m sure she was right (I learned she always was) when she said that her remains will become a bright bunch of yellow daisies and mine will be a thorn bush.Robert G. (Bob) OgdenBermuda Run Pearson DuelBy Marie Craig “The friends of the parties agree to the following Viz. Distance ten paces. To stand still until the words make ready fire. The pistols until the word fire, to be held point-ing above the head or below the feet of the adversary. Time, to morrow morning 8 or 9 o’clock. A snap to be accounted a fire. The word fire to follow in 1. 2. 3. or 4 seconds after the word make ready. The parties shall not reserve fire, but fire immediately on receiving the word.”These are the exact written words which preceded a duel between Joseph Pearson and John George Jackson on Dec. 4, 1809 in Bladensburg, Md., about seven miles northeast of Washington City, as Washington, D.C. was called then. Joseph was a member of the Federalist Party and opposed war. His opponent was a member of the opposite party, and they did not agree on many things. They were both members of the United States Congress and had argued ever since Pearson had joined Congress at the beginning of that year. The duel had been challenged six months be-fore, but had been delayed as the media encouraged and exaggerated it. Pearson was from Rowan County as it was named then. The location is described currently as near Cooleemee, Davie County, North Carolina. (Davie Coun-ty was created from the upper part of Rowan County in 1836.) Pearson came from a prominent family of lawyers, and state and federal representatives in government. His brother Jesse A. had also fought a duel.The other man, John George Jackson, was from Virginia. In addition to these two opponents, there was a second and a doctor for each of them. Pearson’s second was Major James Stephenson from Virginia. A second in a duel was a good friend who ensured that the duel was carried out under honorable conditions, on a proper field of honor, and with equally deadly weapons. To the editor:Two soon-to-be members of the Davie Board of Educa-tion are giving a possibly twisted, distorted view of the latest boogey man theory to raise concerns over teaching. On Sept 20, Mr. Joe Caudle and Ms. Marie Helms gave an explanation (their explanation) of how divisive Marxist propaganda is being taught in Davie County Schools.While the movement is not exactly fake, it’s not ex-actly real, either. Conservatives who argue that this is just a grassroots groundswell are ignoring the deliberate moves made to ramp up this controversy, most notably by Christopher Rufo who stumbled upon CRT and created a movement that came, in his own words, “from nothing,” and then months later proudly declared, in an oft-quoted tweet: “We have successfully frozen their brand – ‘critical race theory’ – into the public conversation and are steadily driving up negative perceptions. We will eventually turn it toxic, as we put all of the various cultural insanities under that brand category.”Recently we have seen on repeat in the media and in communities across the country a swell of concern over the concept of critical race theory (CRT). The divisive rhetoric surrounding this topic has led to heated debate, often based on myths and misinformation. First, it’s important to understand what CRT is, and isn’t, which is nicely outlined by the editors of Middle School Journal in their piece, “Is it really about Critical Race The-ory?” I recommend you review that piece first. And now, let’s put a few community concerns about anti-racist edu-cation to rest.Busting Myth 1: No, it doesn’t teach children or adults to hate America or be less patriotic.In fact, it does quite the opposite by pointing to the mechanisms we’ve built into our growing democracy to ensure we are respectful of all people in pursuit of the ul-timate objective of achieving equity. Anti-racist education asks us to end the promotion of a simplistic American his-tory devoid of diverse perspectives and, instead, to teach history in its full reality, complex and as imperfect as it has been, legitimatizing and including the experience of all its peoples. Its proponents ask us to step up to the promise of our founding documents, making good on each one. It’s a lens to see our journey as a nation so far and observe when we have not operated up to our ideals. As James Baldwin de-clared, “I love America more than any other country in this world, and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.”Time to tame this madness and put those who promote this nonsense in their place.David Carroll (Member, Davie Board of Education)Mocksville History should include all perspectives When they first fired, neither man was hit. Protocol at the time said that they could fire again. The result of the second shots was that Pearson was not hit, but Jackson was wounded in the side. This was not fatal, but was a chronic pain to him the rest of his life. Another duel that almost happened was between Salis-bury residents, Judge David Franklin Caldwell (1791-1867) and Colonel Charles Frederick Fisher Sr. (1790-1849). They both served in representing Rowan County in Raleigh. Their proposed duel didn’t happen because they couldn’t agree whether to use pistols or swords. It’s a good thing it didn’t, for several reasons. Judge Caldwell’s daugh-ter married Colonel Fisher’s son. From this marriage came Frances Christine Fisher, who wrote 40-50 novels under the pen name Christian Reid. Col. Fisher’s son was killed in the Civil War; Fort Fisher was named for him. Don’t you just love this time of the year? Some would call it depressing, with leaves turning brown and falling off of the trees, with fresh vegeta-bles becoming fewer and fewer, with flowers giving way to Mother Nature’s temperatures.I disagree, and it has nothing to do with the pump-kin spice lattes and doughnuts that seem to sprout up around every corner.Autumn makes me want to plant something.But when?That question is almost impossible to answer these days. Say what you want about the politicization of global warming, but the best time to plant those fall vegetables and flowers is getting later and later.Grandpa used to plant his turnip patch - without fail - each year on on Picnic Day (For those of you who don’t remember, that is the second week of August.). I planted mine in the beginning of September, and al-ready, the greens are ready to be cut. Be patient, be-cause they need a little frost to lessen the bitterness of the leaves. I couldn’t imagine how big they would be had I planted them on picnic day. They would be on their way out way before any frost ever touched the leaves.The same goes for seeding lawns, and planting pe-rennials and winter veggies. They need to be planted before it gets too cold, but also after it gets too hot. Those days are unpredictable these days.But as gardeners, we try.I’ve planted radishes, lettuce, turnips, mixed greens, parsley, collards, broccoli, kale and chard. Most will last well into the colder months. I’ve knocked ice off of collards before, and they were still delicious.Of course, it came with some tough decisions.Because of the warm weather lasting longer into the fall, those summer loving plants are still thriving. I ac-tually pulled the zinnias up while noone was watch-ing. I couldn’t imagine what folks would think if they saw me pulling up beautiful flowers of all colors. After all, ours is the garden with something blooming at all times of the year - affectionately called The Calahaln Bootanical Garden.Somewhere along the way, the zinnia became my favorite summer annual flower. I’ve seen them for sale in the garden centers as individual plants. I’ve even seen them sold at festivals for several dollars for one single plant. Yes, some plant lovers have more money than sense.My love of the zinnia is because it’s cheap to buy the seeds, and all you have to do is clean the ground, loosen the soil a few inches deep, and scatter the seeds around. Within a couple of weeks, you’ll have little green sprouts shooting up from the ground. Within a couple of months, you’ll have blooms. And if you cut them, they will bloom even more. I’m a true be-liever that flowers ease tension. If you’re in an office where people come in upset from time to time (Such as a newspaper.), put an arrangement of flowers at the front desk for them to see when they first arrive. They may still be mad, but most people will be a bit calmer. Flowers have that effect.But those zinnias are smack dab where the chard is going, where the garlic is going, where the kale is go-ing. It has to go. Out with the old and in with the new. It’s kind of like a yard sale for the yard. The compost pile appreciates the old zinnias (If you have a clean space and don’t plant different things every season like I do, leave the zinnias to reseed, and you won’t even have to buy new seeds the next year.).Yes, autumn is a great time of the year. A time for growth. A time for renewal.Check back in the spring. I’ll write the same thing.- Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022 - 3 Presidential Sites Renegade ... Continued From Page 2 Advance TiesBy Gaye HootsRecently, Brenda Spry Burton passed away after a long illness. My memories of her go back to the first grade when so many of us enrolled that Mrs. Shermer taught an entire class and Miss Hartman taught a group of halves first and second-grade students. We were the last of the baby boomers.Brenda lived beside Katie Etchinson, who also started school that year. Charles Markland, Janine Vogler, and Carol Green were in our class and lived in the heart of Advance. Eddie Myers, William Waller, Jimmy Cline, and I rode the bus route that included Peoples Creek Road. When Brenda was a young mother, she lived behind my mother-in-law, and I saw her and her sons frequently. Her brothers worked for my dad on the farm when they were young, and Doug was just ahead of us in school.For years we lost touch with each other, but my moth-er bought the home beside Mildred, Brenda’s sister, and Brenda had married Kenny Burton, and they moved across the street from Mildred. When Mom struggled to live in-dependently and had health problems, Mildred called her every morning to check on her and often brought food and visited. Eventually, she started handing the food to Mom through her bedroom window, so she did not have to carry it back through the house. She was the one to alert Faye when Mom had a stroke.When I moved into the same house after Mom died, Mildred invited me for meals, and I took her to visit Betty Potts at Salemtown. Mom had kept Tracy Spry, Doug’s daughter when she was preschool age, so we remain close also.A few weeks ago, I sorted through pictures belonging to Roy, including a photo of Norman Spry wearing an Ad-vance Motorcycle Club shirt. Roy was also a member; his mother and Brenda’s mom were close friends.A more recent memory of Brenda was of her coming to my home with the motorist who hit my great-granddaugh-ter’s little poodle to tell me it had been killed. Brenda had a miniature poodle that I often saw her walking until her health deteriorated.The members of the Spry family that I knew best were Mildred, Doug, his wife Joan, and Brenda. They had a sense of humor like my dad’s and were fun to be around. Mildred told me of Brenda’s birth and that her mom had washed a load of clothes in an outside washpot and hung them on the clothesline before announcing that the baby was coming. She sent Mildred to fetch Mr. Spry to bring the doctor, and when the doctor arrived, Mildred took the kids to a tobacco barn to stay until the baby arrived. That was a generation of resilient people. Kenny looked after Brenda himself, and with the end-of-life care Trellis provided, was able to let her remain in their home. Caretaking had to be difficult as Kenny had health issues of his own. Brenda lived across the road from the property where she was born and in sight of her church. By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise In order for a person from Davie County to visit a site which is connected to George Herbert Walker Bush, who became the 41st President of the United States, he or she will have to travel 1,121.9 miles to College Station, Texas or 1,409.5 miles to Midland, Texas. Those are the only two sites connected to George H. W. Bush that are open to the public. George Herbert Walker Bush was born in Milton, Mass. to Prescott Bush, a U.S. Senator, and Dorothy Walker Bush, who was the daughter of a leading Mis-souri industrialist. George attended private boarding schools where he excelled academically and where he was kind and considerate of other students. He graduated from Phil-lips Academy in Andover, Mass. During his senior year Christmas break at Phillips, he went to a dance where he saw a young lady who was home for the Christmas break from Ashley Hall, the school she Barbara and George Walker Herbert Bush, and the Presidential Library in College Station, Texas. attended in South Caroli-na. George asked to be in-troduced to the girl that he thought was beautiful: her name was Barbara Pierce. That was the beginning of a love affair which lasted a long lifetime.On Dec. 7, 1941, during George’s senior year in high school, the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. Like many young men of that era, George H.W. Bush joined the military as soon as he graduated. He wanted to be a Navy pilot; a goal he achieved. He was prob-ably the youngest pilot in the U.S. Navy. He was off to war, but in December of 1943, he did get a leave and he came home, when he and Barbara got engaged.In 1944, he was as-signed to an aircraft carri-er, and, in September, was flying a bombing mission and was supposed to attack a site on the Bonin Island of Chichi-Jima. During the flight toward the island, his airplane was struck by the Japanese. He completed the mission, but the plane was on fire so he knew it was going down. He told his two crew members to bail out and then he bailed. He went deep into the ocean, struggled, finally surfaced, and held on to a piece of a life raft until he was res-cued. His great concern was that he could not find his crew members and he never knew what happened to them--he struggled with that all his life.In January 1945, George got leave and hurried home because he had a wedding to attend—his wedding. He and Barbara we married in the Presbyterian Church in Rye, N.Y. Barbara was able to live with George as he began to train for a new as-signment. In August 1945, the United States dropped atomic bombs on Japan, and, on Sept. 2, 1945, Ja-pan surrendered. George was soon discharged.George and Barbara Bush began to prepare for the rest of their life. George enrolled at Yale University, and doubled up on class-es so he could graduate sooner - in two and a-half years. During that time the Bushes had a son, George Walker Bush. After his graduation, George could have taken a job on Wall Street with his relatives, but he wanted to make it on his own. So George, Barba-ra, and their son, George, headed for the oil fields of Texas. They first lived in Odessa, Texas, and then moved to Midland, Texas, where they lived for several years. At first George sold drilling equipment and then decided drilling would be more lucrative. So he got involved in that. One of the sites that you can visit connected to George H. W. Bush is house at 1412 Ohio Ave. in Midland, Texas, which was home for the Bush family for several years. Midland, is in west Texas near the oil fields, so near in fact, when the wind is blowing in the right direction you can sometimes smell oil. It is hot and dry in that town and the wind seems to blow all the time. Barbara Bush said that you could dust and a few minutes later every-thing would be covered in dust again. That Bush House in Midland has about five or six rooms and it looks just like all the cottages near it, all of which are paint-ed pastel colors. The street was called Easter Egg Row because of all of that pastel paint. The Bush Family en-joyed living there and were involved in community ac-tivities. George and Barba-ra had two more children while living in Midland, a daughter, Robin, and a son, who they called Jeb. The greatest tragedy that hit the family also occurred while the family lived in Midland. Their beautiful little daughter, Robin, got sick and died in spite of the care of the best doctors in the country. George and Barbara never really recov-ered from the loss of their first daughter, who was buried in Massachusetts. If you plan to visit the Bush Home in Midland, call 432-685-1112 for information.If you drive 396.4 miles east from Midland, Tex-as, you will reach College Station, which is the home of Texas A&M and of the George H.W. Bush Library and Museum. That library and museum is an abso-lutely outstanding facility, inside and out. It is a beau-tiful building and it tells the Bush story well. In an area just outside the Bush Library and Mu-seum, you will find the graves of George Hubert Walker Bush, his wife, Bar-bara Pierce Bush, and their daughter, Robin Bush, who died when she was 3 or 4 years old. Robin was buried in Massachusetts when she died and her parents had her body moved to Texas after the Bush Library and Museum was built. Barbara Bush died on April 17, 2018, and her body was taken by hearse in a long procession from Huston to College Station. The distance is actually 93 miles. Mourners lined the route to pay their respect to the First Lady, who was highly respected and loved. The former president, George Herbert Walker Bush died on Nov. 30 the same year and his body was taken to College Sta-tion along with his family on a special train with the name 4141. The train tracks all along the way was lined with people, who wanted to pay their respect to their former leader. The spot where the Bushes where were laid to rest is indeed beautiful and quite appropriate for a for-mer President. She was within a half mile of Shady Grove School, where we attended for eight years. She had lived away from Ad-vance for periods but had truly come home to Advance, as had Kenny. He was born a few miles from their home too. Queen Anne’s LaceBy Julie Terry CartnerTatiana hurried across the field, late once again, her mother’s dire warning reverberating through her brain. “Don’t you dare be late. The king will be displeased and will not choose you for his wife.” Tendrils of fabric, rib-bons and thread trailed behind her, falling out of her pock-ets, her apron, and even her hair.“Why, oh why am I like this?” she chastised herself. “I’m always late, disorganized, and careless with my things, just like Mother always says.”Just then her friends caught up with her, the detritus of her pockets spilling out of their hands. “Here you go Ana; you dropped these.” One by one, they helped her get or-ganized. “You’re such good friends,” Tatiana replied. “What would I do without you?” She said as she re-filled her pockets with her treasures.“Us?” her friends responded. “Us? We do nothing. You’re the good friend.”“Last week you helped me babysit,” said Merry, a diminutive sprite.“And you stayed with my grandmother so I could go to my sister’s recital,” reminded Fiona.“Don’t forget when you took care of my sick dog,” add-ed Jason. “I didn’t think he was going to live, but now he’s fine.”“Yeah, Ana,” several others chimed in. “You always take care of us. You might be disorganized but we know you love us, and we love you.”Smiling, Tatiana thanked her friends, wishing her moth-er would be so understanding. She had spent the morning in her sewing room, working on a project. She combined threads with knots and loops to make a beautiful, lacy de-sign. As usual, she’d gotten so immersed in what she was doing that she lost all concept of time. And now, she was in trouble, again.Her friends dispersed into the crowd, as Tatiana wished she could, but as part of the royal entourage, she couldn’t. The coronation ceremony was about to start, and her moth-er, frowning in anger, motioned her forward. She slid into place hoping the new king hadn’t seen her tardy arrival. Unfortunately, he had. At the conclusion, the fairies welcomed their new king. Tatiana hung back, hoping most of the crowd would disperse before she was chastised. Finally, she stepped forward to curtsy, but, to her absolute horror, she saw a piece of her handiwork fall out of her pocket and land at the king’s feet. Stooping to pick it up, the king examined the scrap.Expecting chastisement, Tatiana was shocked to hear him exclaim, “This is exquisite. Where did you find this?”With a fearful look at her grim-faced mother, Tatiana replied honestly, “I made it, your Majesty. I was looking at the lovely white flowers in the fields and wanted to re-cre-ate them.”Intrigued, the king asked for more information, and Ta-tiana responded. “I like to make things. One day I was knotting and looping threads, and I liked the lacy, flower-like pattern it created, like those in the fields. So, I start-ed making lacework for my dresses and for my friends’ clothes.” Under the king’s questioning, she told more of her work, and of herself. The king, enchanted with this young fairy woman, de-clared: “I choose this woman, Tatiana, to be my queen. Her artwork will be called tatting, and she will, hence-forth, be known as Queen Ana, my bride. The flowers that she has so carefully replicated will, now and forevermore, be known as Queen Anne’s Lace.•Legend says Queen Anne’s Lace was named after Queen Anne II of England, an expert lace maker. She pricked herself while making her lace, and a drop of blood landed in the center, leaving a dark purple spot. The flower represents beauty, and women added the flowers to their bath to attract love. It also symbolizes safety, sanctuary and a happy home. Also known as wild carrot, young roots have a somewhat similar appearance and taste. The flower has medicinal uses as an antiseptic, to soothe the digestive system, as a balm for burns and as a diuretic. Eating the purple center was once believed to cure epilepsy.

The Town of Mocksville is over a year into its contract with the Davie County Sheriff’s Office (DCSO) providing law enforcement to town residents and the update was certainly positive. I wish I could write to you that illegal activity has been eliminated completely and the Davie County Enterprise is having to look for articles to fill the “arrests” and “courts” section in the paper. Even though we live in a very safe community, there will always be a need for law enforcement and unfortunately we will always have folks around us who tend to bend and sometimes break the law. One of the many advantages of our contract is that Sheriff Hartman has a dedicated deputy that is on foot patrol in our downtown area. The merchants have come to know Deputy Austin and they give her high regards everytime I walk into one of our town businesses. I often hear from business owners that come into work early in the morning and see a tag on their door where a deputy had been by there on patrol in the wee hours of the morning. Just having a patrol car sitting in our town square makes me think twice before speeding through downtown. Knowing that there are officers posted at town events and monitoring Main Street during parades, Halloween trick or treating, and our Downtown Bed Races makes me feel safer. The Mocksville Town Board made a tough decision in 2021 when they chose to contract with the county to provide law enforcement services. There were lots of late Board meetings and social media sites were full of folks second guessing the decision. I even got emails from an angry man in Houston, Texas who claimed we were defunding the police. Nothing could be further from the truth as we were able to increase the number of officers on patrol while saving a significant amount of money in the process. The savings were derived primarily from eliminating the need for administrative services and maintaining a facility. Partnerships between government agencies to provide better services while saving tax dollars is something you don’t hear much of in society today. I wish the politicians in Washington, DC would take some notes on better ways to save tax revenue. The advanced technology used by the DCSO allows Sheriff Hartman to share data that shows where deputies have patrolled during any given time frame. This ability give the town information that we did not have before when citizens asked why they were not seeing any patrols in their neighborhoods. We can refer to the data and give dates and times as to when deputies were on patrol. This technology also allows the department to focus on hot spots were criminal activity may be concentrated. Change is difficult. Change is rarely accepted easily when we have done things the same way for many years. Mocksville and Davie County are growing, and with growth change is inevitable. I am proud to live in a community that is willing to work together to deal with the changes ahead of us and make the best of all situations. William J.

The fire station dates back to the 1960’s when the effects of diesel exhaust on firefighter health were not understood. The living quarters for the station is above the fire engine bays and it is impossible to keep the exhaust out of the area without an exhaust system. The grant award is timely since the department is in the process of hiring six full-time firefighters to staff the facility on a 24 hour basis.

Town of MocksvilleCalendar of Events Burning is not permitted inside the town limits. The Town of Mocksville Code of Ordinances states that it shall be unlawful to burn or set fire to or bury any garbage or any other debris. NO BURNING ALLOWED INSIDE THE CITY LIMITS FOG Alert FATS, OILS AND GREASE ACCUMULATIONS CAN BLOCK YOUR PRIVATE PLUMBING SYSTEM AS WELL AS PUBLIC SEWERS Both residential and business customers can help prevent wastewater overflows by minimizing the amount of FOG disposed of through plumbing drains. 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.

Deborah LeightonFor the Enterprise Civil Air Patrol cadets have amazing opportunities in the summer to attend Na-tional Cadet Special Activi-ties. As young leaders, cadets can try out potential career interests and explore new areas. Sugar Valley Com-posite Squadron’s C/2d Lt. Levi Gragg earned a place at the Southwest Re-gion National Glider Flight Academy in Clovis, N.M. This 10-day experience en-hanced his goals in aviation.Gragg’s interest in avia-tion began early and he joined the squadron when he was 12. He started tak-ing flying lessons at Sugar Valley Airport when he was 14, accumulating 25 hours of powered flight time, as well as 3 Cadet Orientation flights with Capt Sandra Smith. He joined other cadets in Clovis with flight experi-ence and a goal to solo in a glider.“We woke up at 0400 every morning and were at Portales Municipal Airport by 0500–0530,” he said. “We then spent all morning, and much of each afternoon, flying until the density al-titude reached too high a mark to continue safely fly- Sugar Valley cadet flies glider solo in New Mexico Civil Air Patrol Cadet 2nd. Lt. Levi Gragg reacts to having just flown a glider solo over New Mexico. ing. We were there for 10 days. By the eighth day the first solo cadets went up, in-cluding myself. “After that morning we finished the last sign-off we needed - simulated rope breaks. While there were bumps along the way, the overall outcome was a good one and I would give any-thing to go back. Unbreak-able friendships were made among the cadets there, which tells you just how closely we had to work to- gether and support each other in our journey.”Gragg brought back new skills, but also friendships to build on and a confidence in his passion for aviation. Now he can share this with other squadron members as well as the community he is a part of. His plan is to con-tinue his soaring and work toward his glider rating at Bahnson Field (43NC) with the Piedmont Soaring Soci-ety. He hopes to obtain his glider rating on his 16th birthday in March of 2023.For more information about Civil Air Patrol and what cadets experience weekly, visit on Tuesday evenings 6:30- 8:30 at Sug-ar Valley Airport, 249 Gil-bert Road in Mocksville.

Emily Inez Ferguson MillerEmily Inez Ferguson Miller of Mocksville passed away, Friday, Sept. 23, 2022 after a battle with cancer at age 88. Inez was born the youngest of five children on Dec. 10, 1933 to James Myers and Nellie Walsh Ferguson in the aptly named Ferguson community of Wilkes County. She graduated from Wilkes Central High School and continued her education by at-tending business school.Following business school, she was employed in Winston-Salem as an admin-istrative assistant at an insurance company. Inez married the late Dr. Bayne E. Miller of Davie Coun-ty on June 9, 1957, and they were wed for over 64 years. Bayne and Inez moved to Mocksville in 1960, where they both were active mem-bers of the community and First United Methodist Church. At Davie Veterinary Clinic, Inez worked alongside her husband as the front office administration, receptionist, ac-countant, veterinary assistant, and dog groomer for many years until the office closed in 2003. Inez was a loving wife, as well as deeply devoted mother and grandmother. She was an avid duplicate bridge player and interior deco-rator, and she also loved to play the stock market.She was preceded in death by: her parents; 3 sisters, Jewel Jones, Reba Hamby, and Mattie Nell Cleary; and a brother, Rayvon Ferguson, all of Wilkes County.Inez is survived by: her 2 sons, Dr. Aaron Bayne Miller (Lisa), and Anthony Brent Miller, RPh.

Continued From Page 1and all fire departments should get an equal amount - $37,889.The board is expected to make a decision at their meeting at 6 p.m. on Mon-day.Other options present-ed were: increase the three largest departments by $55,000 collectively, and allocate $32,755 each to the other nine “base” de-partments; or $37,889 to the nine base departments, $300,000 to the rescue squad, and $21,222 to each of the three largest depart-ments.The discussion came af-ter two fire chiefs spoke to the board, saying they need more money to operate at the minimem level, one saying Mocksville’s annex-ations to the north are hurt-ing that department’s rev-enue, because allocations are based partly on the tax base in the district.William R. Davie Chief Jason Keeton said that when Mocksville annexed the SouthPoint Business Park, his department received a one-time $3,600 payment. The park, he said, brings in more than $32,000 a year in taxes. Now there’s talk about more development and annexations in the US 601 N., Ijames Church and Cana roads area.“I’m probably the most unliked person in this room right now, but I feel like it’s my job to do the best I can for the people I serve.”William R. Davie gets some $212,000 in money from the county’s fire tax, Mocksville Fire Depart-ment gets $541,000, plus about $250,000 from the town.“How can I provide the same service as Mocksville Fire Department? I can’t, and the people I protect deserve more than that. The citizens of this county don’t get lesser in law en-forcement, EMS services or school service.”He suggested the county look at ways to stop such annexations. “To me, Davie County is more important than Mocksville.”“Our needs need to be met as well,” said Naylor, adding that the nine depart-ments haven’t seen an in-crease in 15 years until the last allocation.Both advocated for an additional quarter cent sales tax exclusively for fire service.Finney said that Ad- Fire ... vance has its own fire tax district to raise funds, which it hasn’t used, and that Mocksville is more of a municipal fire department. “We need to have a better agreement with them,” she said of Mocksville.Smith Grove serves Ber-muda Run, but that town doesn’t contribute to its funding, she said.Renegar said a coun-ty-commissioned study two years ago set $250,000 as the minimum needed to operate a fire department. “That’s been the goal. We’ve got to take steps as we can afford them ... it’s not where we need to be, but it’s making progress. I believe we need to get the smaller departments to $250,000.”Commissioner Mark Jones made the motion to table the decision until Monday, saying he need-ed more time to go over the options. He also said the county needs to start a more serious discussion prior to next year’s budget, including removing the res-cue squad from the funding from fire tax revenues. CENTER BBQ ONE DAY ONLY!

Rivers, DMD “In addition to yellowing your teeth, smoking is a risk factor for gum disease and oral cancer.” 14 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022 Bless Your Spoon By Stephanie Williams Dean Have car – will travel – recently navigating hairpin curves down into a mountain valley near Stuarts Draft, Va., for what turned out to be a cultural immersion weekend. My friend, Pete, extended a personal invitation to the Men-nonite apple butter boiling. The event delivered all prom-ised – an incredible experience from beginning to end. Held in the backyard of an old Mennonite schoolhouse, 22 huge kettles of steamy, sputtering apple butter boiled. Surrounding the field of copper cauldrons were vineyards lush with grapes, blankets of cornfields, and spectacular mountain views. A former Marine, Pete received basic training in perfect-ing the boiling - working with an old timer named Her-schel for 5 years – until the man passed away at 93. Pete's been the sergeant in charge for the last 15 years of the 20 or more in which he's participated – participants know the drill. At dawn, the process begins. Everyone pitches in lay-ing the split logs, and propane torches light the fires. The entire process was carried out like military exercises – each in step with the others.Solid-copper kettles were handmade by coppersmiths from Fincastle, Va., and some made by the Amish in Ohio – a few are more than 150 years old. Like wood stoves with open kettle stands – the jacketed kettles burn two-thirds less firewood. Back in the day, Fitzgerald Orchard in Tyro, Va., donated the apples. Two hundred bushels were handpicked – then processed to make applesauce. The process was housed in an old World War II cannery until being shut down a cou-ple of years ago. Today the boiling begins with applesauce. A man in Floyd County owns an orchard and combines Gala and Golden Delicious apples in the sauce. Pete approves of the Galas for the bit of tartness they provide. The boiling began with 155 gal-lon buckets of applesauce, equiva-lent to 155 bushels of apples – a bushel is one bucket. In one large kettle, 150 gallons of apple cider are boiled down. The water is boiled out, leaving a sweet syrup. The cider syrup is added to each of the other kettles. After the fires are lit – there's a stirrer for every kettle. They can't stop stirring, or the butter will scorch and burn the kettle. A scraper comes by every so often to scrape the sides. After the cider has been added and 4 to 5 more hours have passed – sugar, cinnamon, and allspice are added. More sugar is added until desired sweetness has been ob-tained – that's Pete's job. Imagine tasting 22 kettles of ap-ple butter. He's earned the privilege but deserves a medal. The original recipe called for 60 pounds of sugar added to a kettle – talk about sugar shock. Thank goodness they cut that in half. Once the sugar's been added, the apple but-ter begins to caramelize and turn brown. There are also 5 kettles without sugar. Unflavored gelatin is added to these kettles to help thicken it up – otherwise, it would be like applesauce. The non-sugar kettles come off early, but someone continues to watch the sugar kettles for moisture and consistency. Pete tests the readiness by scraping the sides of the kettle – if the mixture pulls away from the side – it's getting close to apple butter. Another test is to take a copper pan, put some apple butter in the middle, and cut it in half. You're looking for water to wick away from the bulk of apple butter. You have to keep boiling the moisture out of it. By the end of the day – the Mennonites had jarred over 2,200 quarts of apple butter in this all-day event. "Have you ever tasted an apple butter milkshake?" asked Pete. I never had – but the thought of it tasted good. "It's like you're eating a mouthful of fall." Clear to me was the fact Mennonites value good food and fellowship. Multiple pots of various styles of home-made chili, baked potatoes and fixin’s, a delicious three-bean salad – made better with fresh green beans, and ten-der, moist corn muffins were served. Dessert was a variety of cakes, pies, and cookies – many flavored with fresh apples. Mint tea was my beverage of choice. I gave thanks and said my goodbyes. I ascended the val-ley and headed a few miles down the road to a mountain peak for an overnight stay. The red chair lifts at Winter-green Resort hung eerily still. Occasionally, I heard scrap-ing metals as chairs rocked in the wind. I enjoyed breath-taking views from the restaurant – just as much as bites of my Chop-Chop Salad between sips of Sangria. When snow arrives, the landscape will appear much different. – dense-ly dotted with skiers. But at that moment – I was in heaven.The Mennonites have a rich history of hard work, love for music, close fellowship, and ministry to the social and spiritual needs of others. On Sunday, the local Mennonite church held services. The pastor preached directly from the Bible – reading 1 Timothy: 3-4. "As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer nor to devote themselves to myths and endless ge-nealogies. These promote controversies rather than God's work – which is by faith." (NIV)Paul's letter urged Timothy to oppose false teachers motivated by their egos and desires. They would lead the church away from the message of the gospel. False teach-ers were motivated by desires for power and prestige. False teaching promoted disputes and controversies – tak-ing attention away from the life and work of Jesus Christ. The sermon takeaway was clear; relationships are not to be overvalued at the expense of the truth. As the service closed, we sang loving words from the hymnal. "l love Thee because thou has loved meAnd purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree,I love Thee for wearing thou on thy browIf ever I loved thee, my Jesus tis now. I'll love you in life, I will love thee in deathAnd promise Thee as long as thou lends me breathAnd say when the death dew is cold on my browIf ever I loved thee, my Jesus tis now."

They played a great game. They made plays when they had to; we didn’t.”Neither team led by more than six. South got on the board first on a touchdown run by Jayce Bentley, who had a huge day while scoring all three South TDs. It was 6-6 at halftime after North quarterback Blake French tossed a 4-yard TD to Wyatt Harwood. North had a 12-6 lead when John Evans broke a 60-yard run. Then the momentum swung to the Tigers, who tied it on a Bentley run that was followed by QB Draeton Nance’s successful two-point conversion. That gave South a 14-12 lead. Bentley achieved a hat trick with 1:20 left, scoring his third One for the ages South beats North in wild finish TD. Even though South missed the two-point try, it seemed all but over at 20-12. But North’s Ian Patton made this a game for the ages by answer-ing immediately. On the ensuing kickoff, he stepped up and took it to the house with 63 seconds remaining. “We tried to squib it and it didn’t work out,” Mayfield said. “We kicked it too hard.”“The funny thing is we made that substitution on that one kick-off, within 15 seconds,” Allen said. “We needed somebody to go in there. We were gassed and I wanted somebody else back there. I wanted fresh legs. It got sprung by John Evans. John had the block. He’s been penalized for blocks this year, but that one was clean. He set the edge, pinned the kid in and Patton read it perfectly. Patton is about 6-1 and he’s a good athlete. He’s got some straight-line speed for sure.”With South clinging to a 20-18 lead, now the tense game hinged on the two-point conversion. The play was a QB keeper for French, who fumbled. The ball wound up in Evans’ hands and he crossed the goal line for an apparent score that would have likely forced overtime. But there was a flag for illegal touching, which meant North had to try again from the 7-yard line. “(French) was about a yard away,” Allen said. “He got hit. The ball pops out and pops right into John’s hands and he runs it in. The ref threw a flag and said French had an illegal pass. It bounced off Blake’s leg and went right into John’s hands. John snatched it off Blake’s leg.”On the next attempt, French tried a pass but was picked off by Nance. Then it was victory for-mation time for the Tigers. On the other side, it was a gut-wrenching loss for North. “It was a tough pill to swallow on the two-point conversion,” Allen said. It was a welcome performance for the Tigers, who improved to 1-2 after losing 12 of their previous 14 games across three seasons. The catalysts were Bentley and Nance, who completed six passes. His completions went to Noah Dulin, Jayden Warren and Bentley, who had two catches each. “I’m pretty sure Jayce had at Please See South - Page B6 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Anybody who follows high school football will tell you East Forsyth has too much of every-thing, and in a 56-21 manhandling of visiting Davie on Sept. 23, East had all that and more. After winning two in a row, Davie met a cinder-block wall as East romped to 5-0 overall and 2-0 in the Central Piedmont Conference. Jayvontay Conner, a 6-4, 240-pound senior receiver, can probably tie his shoes with-out bending over. Jaylen Raynor, the senior quarterback, and Que Brown, a 5-9, 160-pound senior receiver, are so quick they could turn out the light and be under the covers before the room got dark. That’s the kind of physical freaks that Davie (2-3, 1-1 CPC) faced in Kernersville. “We were trying to take some-thing away, but then somebody else stepped up the plate,” coach Tim Devericks said. “They just have several weapons that can make dynamic plays. And when By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Davie JV football team’s defense delivered a heroic effort against visiting East Forsyth on Sept. 22, but it wasn’t quite enough in narrow 12-7 defeat. After Davie’s first loss in four games, assistant coach Blaine Nicholson had a glass-half-full view. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Even at full strength, Reagan’s tennis team provided little re-sistance when rampaging Davie traveled to Pfafftown on Sept. 21.Reagan was missing No. 1 Lyd-ia Berger when the teams met in August. Davie won 7-2 but coach Collin Ferebee knew that wasn’t the real Reagan team. Berger was in the lineup oppo-site Elliot Newsome last week, but Davie’s profile only grew in an 8-1 dismantling. “This was their full strength lineup,” Ferebee said. “They got stronger and we beat them the same.”Newsome (6-2, 6-4), Karlie Quinn (6-3, 6-1), Tru Koren (7-5, 4-6, 10-6), Leslie Newsom (6-2, 6-2) and Bailey Aderhold (7-6, 6-0) put a fork in the Raiders in singles. The most outstanding perfor-mance came from Koren, who won in a third-set tiebreaker. “Tru lost the last time (on Aug. 29), but she turned it around and beat the girl who played No. 2 last time,” Ferebee said. “To play a better player and turn a loss into a win gets player of the match.”Quinn/Koren (8-3), Newsome/Newsom (8-3) and Sarah West Marklin/Aderhold (1-0) added to the rout by sweeping doubles. The War Eagles, who are 9-0 overall and 7-0 in the Central Piedmont Conference, have a comfortable lead over Reynolds and West Forsyth, both of which are 6-2. Their CPC winning streak moved to 19, one shy of the pro-gram record. Oh, and there’s this: Davie has played 12 third-set tiebreakers in two years. It has claimed eight of them, including a 3-1 mark in 2022. “I put different pressures on the line (in practice),” Ferebee said. “Obviously, you can never simu-late a match, but we put pressure on in practice: You’re down 0-5, claw your way back. So they’re used to it. Hopefully it feels like second nature to them. We lost some close, crucial matches my first two years coaching, and I made a decision one day: We’re not going to lose tiebreakers and we’re not going to lose because of doubles. And the last two years, that’s been pretty true.”Notes: One day before playing Reagan, the War Eagles cruised past visiting Glenn 9-0. Gabby Thompson played No. 6. Thomp-son and Jasmine Brickey played No. 2 doubles, while Grace Ja-cobs/Katelyn Cohen played No. 3 doubles. ... Five of Davie’s six regulars in singles have no more than two losses. Newsome is 8-1 at one, Quinn is 9-0 at two, Koren is 7-2 at three, Newsom is 8-0 at five and Aderhold is 8-1 at five/six. In doubles, Quinn/Koren, Newsome/Newsom and Marklin/Aderhold have a combined record of 18-2. Quinn/Koren are 8-0 at one. Rampaging tennis team now at 9-0 Defense shines in JV 12-7 loss “We challenged them on their effort and they really came through,” he said after the defense only allowed one touchdown. “Their offense had some massive dudes up front and they had good skill position guys. Our guys were flying to the ball. They played very inspired.”The defense came up big all night, starting with East’s first pos-session after Davie fumbled away the opening kickoff. Shortly after that stop, East’s offense got its lone TD of the game to go in front 6-0. On the ensuing series, Davie put together a nice drive. Jamarius Pelote’s 11-yard completion to Ethan Driver moved the sticks. Davie picked up 25 yards when Pelote hit Leon Bradshaw for 10 yards with a rousing-the-passer penalty tacked on. Then Bradshaw made the catch of the game for Davie, going up high to reel in an 18-yard fade at the East 3-yard line. On third-and-goal, Pelote hit Bradshaw for what would have been a TD, but it was brought back by a holding flag. Davie’s 12-play drive hit a wall as East maintained the 6-0 lead. Pelote was intercepted as East set up shop at the Davie 29.

Sept. 24 has been designated as Youth Deer Hunting Day – established in 2015 to give youths more opportunities to increase their deer-hunting success.On YDHD, youths 17 years and younger may use guns or any other le-gal hunting equipment to take a whitetail; the rest of the hunting population can use only archery gear. If they have completed a hunter-education course, they can hunt without an adult; if not, the adult must be with the young hunter at all times. And they can hunt over dogs; hounds and beagles can be used in areas where dog-hunting is legal – normally only during gun season and in the eastern half of the state.Once Sunday arrives, young hunters will go back to the regulations that ev-eryone else is required to use for the season in the area they’re hunting.In terms of fishing, something ends on Friday, and something else begins on Saturday.The month-long rec-reational flounder season ends on Friday, Sept. 30. Fishermen were given Sep-tember to keep flounder, only one a day. In many cases, flounder are caught incidentally while anglers are targeting speckled trout, redfish or bluefish in North Carolina’s coastal waters. On Saturday, Oct. 1, the commission will put De-layed Harvest Trout Waters regulations back in place on 36 streams or other bod-ies of water – some of them among North Carolina’s most-popular fishing spots.These special waters allow anglers to keep sev-en trout daily between the first Saturday in June and the first Friday in October, with no bait or size restric-tions. The rest of the year, it’s catch-and-release fish-ing with only single-hook, artificial lures allowed.The commission stocks these waters heavily from fall through spring to al-low anglers to catch plen-ty of rainbows, brookies and browns. Most of the streams are marginal in terms of habitat for sup-porting trout year-round – higher water temperatures are the key factor during the warm months – so al-lowing trout to be kept from June-September takes out fish that might not make it through the summer. CWD public forumsThe commission has scheduled KNOW CWD public forums in North- west North Carolina, aimed at teaching hunters more about chronic wasting dis-ease – found in two Yadkin County deer over the past 10 months – and addressing special regulations in areas within 30 miles of the dis-covery sites.A public forum will be Thursday, Sept. 2, at the Wilkes County Coopera-tive Extension Center (416 Executive Drive) in Wil-kesboro, and on Thursday, Oct. 4 at the Yadkin Coun-ty Cooperative Extension Center (2051 Agricultural Way) in Yadkinville. Doors will open at 6 p.m., and the forums will last from 6:30-8:30.The forums will also be streamed live on the Com-mission’s Facebook Page. Davie, Forsyth, Stokes, Surrey and Yadkin coun-ties fall completely within either the Primary Surveil-lance Area (a rough circle with a 5-mile radius around the cite of the CWD deer kills) or Secondary Sur-veillance Area (a rough circle with a 30-mile radius around the cite). Portions of Alleghany, Wilkes and Iredell counties are within the Secondary Surveillance Area.Alleghany, Davie, For-syth, Iredell, Stokes, Surry, Wilkes and Yadkin coun-ties fall entirely or partially within the Surveillance Ar-eas. Sportsmen and women who hunt in these areas are encouraged to attend the forums to learn about the special regulations.CWD is a neurological disease that affects white- tailed deer and other cer-vids, including elk and caribou. It is always fatal. The commission’s response to CWD can be viewed in a 6-minute video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCNmNRsIh3U or at ncwildlife.org/CWD. Dean Harrison of Clemmons caught this floun- der in the Pamlico River in mid-September. North Carolina’s ends tomorrow. Short flounder season almost over already Defense ... the Fighting Eagles came away empty-handed. On fourth-and-2 at the Davie 5, Luke Wayne and Co. smothered the ball carrier at the line of scrimmage. East’s only other points came at the end of the half off a Davie turnover. Da-vie was at its 22 when it fumbled. East scooped and scored with :02 on the clock. That made the halftime defi-cit 12-0, and that play would come back to haunt the War Eagles. Davie blocked a punt and took over the ball at the East 42. East was called for pass interference on fourth-and-9. Archer Richardson churned for 15 yards. On third-and-goal at the 13, Pelote faced heavy pressure. He rolled right, escaped and sliced to paydirt. David Patton’s PAT pulled Davie within 12-7 with 6:46 left in the third. East drove from its 20 to Davie’s 26, but a receiver fumbled and Davie recov-ered. East started its next possession at the Davie 48, but Davie’s defense came through to force a punt. “They had to earn every-thing they got,” Nicholson said. “Unfortunately, we had that fluky fumble. Without that, we win that game 7-6. “Coaches suggested put-ting Nathaniel Jordan at the nose instead of a three-tech-nique, and he really went to work tonight. Billy Krause always gets after it. Lane Griffin had a sack. He’s a really good athlete. Jack Bo-ger might weigh 140 playing nose guard, but he’s one of those old-school guys. He just goes hard.” TO OUTLAST TRAVEL MORE 110$ GET UP TO * TOTAL SAVINGS Offer valid 9/14/22 – 10/4/22 via Visa® Reward Card1 or Visa® Virtual Account2 after online submission* with the purchase of four new select MICHELIN® passenger or light truck tires.

(with purchase of 4 new tires) Both offenses continued to spin their wheels in mud. East started a series with favorable field position - at midfield - but it turned it over on downs at the Davie 31. East got the ball at its 42 with 4:54 to play, but Davie forced another punt. It can’t be overstated how well the defense played. “They tried to run a lot of outside zone, and the play of our outside linebackers (Landon Waller, Dylan Mill-er, Christian Boswell, Con-nor Dixson and Eli Waddell) impressed me,” Nicholson said. “Those guys rotate like crazy.”The play of the inside linebackers was equally important. “Josiah Johnson laid some licks,” Nicholson said. “When he makes his read, there’s nobody who’s going to throw his body into the car wreck every single play like he’s going to. He’s a thumper. He’s one of those no-fear guys. Bubby Bying-ton was all over the field, blitzing, playing in (pass) coverage and hustling to the ball.”The Davie offense’s last gasp came with 2:27 remain-ing from its 44. On second down, Pelote scrambled but absorbed a big hit. Injured, he walked off slowly. That meant Bradshaw, the home-run threat at re-ceiver, had to move to quar-terback. His first pass fell in-complete and set up fourth-and-12 at the Davie 42, but it looked like Bradshaw might have worn a cape if he’d had more time. On fourth down, he found Isaac Swisher for 13 yards and a first down. After getting sacked, Brad-shaw connected with Patton for 11 yards. Patton was shaken up and had to leave the game, but Bradshaw hit Driver for 10 yards to the East 26. It looked like the East defensive back might have hit Driver early on a long pass, but there wasn’t a flag. A Hail Mary fell to the ground to end the game. Despite being thrust into emergency duty, Bradshaw showed poise in the pocket and fired crisp passes. “He’s just one of those guys who just needs a few reps here and there at what-ever position,” coach Tim Devericks said. “He’s a good all-around athlete. He can step in where the team needs him. He had ice water in his veins.”It was tough sledding for the War Eagles, who needed 37 rushing attempts to gain 61 yards. Davie was held to 77 passing yards. “They had two guys in the middle that were pretty dominant forces,” Dever-icks said of East’s d-line. Notes: Pelote only man-aged 47 yards on 23 car-ries, but he had runs for 7, 8, 13, 15 and 12 yards to sustain a few drives. “He took some hits, but he’ll be alright,” Devericks said. “He’s a tough dude and he’s a competitor. He loves to compete.” ... Snapper Richardson, holder Driver and kicker Patton could have been the difference if it weren’t for the scoop-and-score fumble or if Davie could have driven another 26 yards at the end. “Pat-ton has really developed,” Nicholson said. “If I’d told you last year he’d be doing what he’s doing this year, you would have laughed. He’s an athlete. He’s very fast at receiver, but he made up his mind to get better at kicking. He’s gotten im-mensely better.” ... Davie slipped to 3-2 overall and 1-1 in the Central Piedmont Conference. 113 Marketplace Drive, Mocksville, NC 27028www.mocksvillefamilydentistry.com (336) 753-6630 CALL NOW FOR AN APPOINTMENT 1328851No Insurance?

B4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022 The Davie varsity soccer team lost 3-0 at home to Mt. Tabor and 6-0 at West Forsyth last week. The visiting Spartans led 1-0 at halftime before pull-ing away. After beating West Forsyth 1-0 and tying both Reynolds and East Forsyth, Tabor improved to 2-0-2 in the Central Piedmont Con-ference. The Davie-West game was 2-0 at halftime. The Titans poured it on in the second half and improved to 3-2 in the league. Davie’s fourth straight loss dropped it to 2-10 overall and 0-4 in the CPC. •••Davie’s JV outplayed Tabor in the first half - it had a 1-0 lead at halftime on a Bryan Reyes-to-Abdullah Guver connection - but Ta-bor dominated the second half to beat Davie 6-1. The JV game at West Forsyth was a complete mismatch. West won 9-0 as Davie fell to 1-7-2, 0-3-1.

They have guys who will play at a high level on Saturdays.”In the first half, East roared to the end zone on three of its first four pos-sessions. Raynor was 8 of 10 for 139 yards. The two incompletions: one dropped pass and one Hail Mary at the end of the half. It was 21-0 at intermis-sion and East was just get-ting rolling. In the second half, it scored TDs on five straight possessions. Raynor was sensational, rushing for 115 yards and going 19 of 23 for 246 yards while hitting seven receivers. Se-nior running back Trenton Dozier (13 carries for 92 yards), Conner (five carries for 62 yards on jet sweeps) and Brown (four catches for 90 yards) shared the wealth as East piled up 616 yards of offense, converted six of seven third-down tries and amassed 30 first downs. In the fourth quarter, East was bringing in considerable talent off the bench. East did all that damage while being hindered by penalties: 13 for 136 yards. “If you pressure (Ray-nor), you could corral him or you could spook him,” Devericks said. “If you spook him, it’s one cut and to the house. If you drop back (in coverage), he can run around back there and you can’t hardly cover for that long. So it was mix and match to try to keep them offbalance. But kudos to (Raynor), he made plays.”Brown made ridiculous plays. One time when he was blanketed by a Davie defender, he elevated for a catch that left fans’ jaws dropped. On a punt return that was called back by a penalty, he hurdled a War Eagle and made remarkable cuts on the way to the end zone. “On two passes, we couldn’t have asked for better coverage,” Devericks said. “The guy just went up and made plays.”Despite the lopsided mar- The War Eagle Dancing Boots (above and below) keep the spirits high during Friday’s game at East Forsyth. -Photos by Savannah Ivey, Davie High Intern Varsity volleyball wins twice Davie’s varsity volleyball team had an easy week. It beat visiting Glenn in three sets on Sept. 20, dropping the Bobcats to 6-9. Two days later, it took care of business at Reynolds, winning in four sets as the Demons fell to 5-9. The War Eagles, who have won five straight to lift their record to 8-5, are tied for second in the Central Piedmont Conference. Reagan is 8-0, while Davie and East Forsyth are 6-2. West Forsyth is next at 5-3. It was also smooth sailing for Davie’s JV team, beating both Glenn and Reynolds in two sets. The JV is 5-4 overall and 5-2 in the league. Reynolds throws 5 TD passesChris Reynolds and the Charlotte 49ers won in dramat-ic fashion as a 20-point underdog on Sept. 17. With the 49ers behind 41-35 at Georgia State with 1:30 remaining, Reynolds engineered a nine-play, 55-yard drive, throwing a 2-yard touchdown to Grant DuBose at :17 to give Charlotte a 42-41 win. Reynolds had a day to remember, going 31 of 43 for 401 yards, including five TD passes. Merrifield slams 2 homersToronto lost 10-5 at Tampa Bay on Sept. 22, but Whit Merrifield had a big night in defeat. He went 2 for 4 with two home runs, three RBIs and two runs. It was his eighth and ninth dingers of the season. Emory loses SAC debut in 2 OTPreston Robertson and Emory & Henry gave unbeaten and ninth-ranked Newberry a scare on Sept. 17. In the Wasps’ South Atlantic Conference debut, they fell just short, 26-23, in double overtime. While the defending SAC champion improved to 3-0 overall, E&H fell to 1-2. The Wasps nearly handed New-berry, one of the top Division II teams in the country, its first regular-season loss since October of 2021. Robertson is a fourth-year starter on the offensive line. “No damn question - they belong in this conference,” Newberry coach Todd Knight said. “They’re going to beat a lot of people. We got lucky today. Emory is a good team and they’re better than anybody gives them credit for. I tried to tell our crowd all week long that we had to be ready, because they were going to be ready. They proved today that they are ready.”Emory recovered from the hard-fought loss, winning 17-10 in overtime at Wingate on Sept. 24.

Pinebrook beats SG in OTWade Ridenhour and Nathan Smith scored on touchdown runs in the fourth quarter and overtime, respectively, to lift the varsity Pinebrook Trojans to a 12-6 win over Shady Grove on Sept. 24. Myshon Clement (10 tackles), Sawyer Hall (six tackles), Glen Green (five tackles), Peyton Jordan (five tackles, good blocking), Smith (five tackles, 80 rushing yards) and Skylar Nunley (good all-around game) helped the Trojans pull it out. A golf meet at Bermu-da Run West was another scrapbook moment for Da-vie’s Emerson Vanzant. She opened her senior season with a career-best 4-over 40 at Salem Glen on Aug. 16. Six days later, she set a new personal best with a 1-over 37 at Pine Knolls. About a month later, Davie went to Bermuda Run West, where Vanzant carded her third career-best round of the season, an even-par 34. She birdied two par-4s and finished fifth overall. The War Eagles have finished third in all six Central Piedmont Confer-ence meets. They played at Wilshire on Sept. 19, where Vanzant shot 7-over 43 to place eighth out of 30 players. Sophia Garza, Reese Ward, Delaney Parsons, Kayden Cornatzer and Cal-lie Wisecarver also compet-ed for Davie, and all five had career-best scores last week. Golfer Vanzant shoots even par Davie ... gin, the War Eagles did things they can build on. They scratched and clawed for 262 yards and 14 first downs. They converted six third-down situations. They sustained enough drives to snap off 64 plays (45 runs, 19 passes). Defensively, Brown’s ridiculous 45-yard catch was East’s longest play; the other 18 receptions were for 21 yards or less. Markel Summers, Ty Miller and Brodie Smith left it all out there. Summers fought for 55 rushing yards. Miller banged out 41 rush-ing yards and hit 12 of 19 passes for 168 yards. Smith hauled in six catches for 72 yards, including two TDs. “We fought hard from the first play to the last,” Devericks said. “Obviously, they’re a talented team, but we made some hay in some places. Our effort was great. We were resilient and found ways to make plays.”Notes: Davie punter/kicker Palmer Williams, a Baylor commit, was hon-ored last week as a 2023 All-American. He will play in the 23rd edition of the All-American Bowl in the East vs. West matchup in-side the Alamodome in San Antonio, Tx., in January. The bowl will be nationally televised on NBC and will feature the nation’s top 100 high school football players. ... Davie has an amazing streak going. It has scored in double figures in 49 straight games. The streak began following a 35-7 loss to East in 2017. ... The War Eagles will be at home the next two games, and this week’s opponent - Reagan - figures to be the first of four serious battles. The Raiders are 3-2, 1-1. Their scores: 30-25 win over North Davidson, 40-34 loss to Grimsley, 17-14 win over Myers Park, 37-3 loss to East Forsyth and 28-26 win over Glenn. The War Eagles lead the series 8-5, but they were destroyed by Reagan last year, 52-14. Kickoff is set for Friday at 7 p.m. “(E. Forsyth) is over. We’ve got to move on to the next week,” Devericks said. “We’ll make correc-tions. If they keep bringing the effort, good things will happen.” Houses, Decks, Driveways Gutter Cleaning, Roof Wash Sports Briefs B6 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022 Continued From Page B1least 130 rushing yards,” Mayfield said. “Draeton had over 100 yards passing and I bet he had 60 yards rushing.”South got a strong per-formance from both lines. The offensive linemen were Marcus Fortune, David Hicks, Ean Click, James Mayfield, Luke Foster, Ahmad McGee and Isaiah Leonard. The d-linemen were those same guys plus Sam Zeack. “Our OL played their butt off,” Mayfield said. “That’s the best they’ve played all year. Our defense got three turnovers (two fumbles, interception). The DL was lights out.”Bentley made a mon-ster play on defense when North’s Javon Carter was heading toward the end zone. He forced a fumble that Leonard recovered. “(Carter) was going up the sideline and they were going to score,” Mayfield said. “Jayce just happened to have an angle and made a play. It was about a 40-yard run. (Carter) was about to put it in cruise control. Then the ball came out.”When South was ahead 14-12, the teams exchanged turnovers. South lost a fum-ble inside its 10. On the next play, North fumbled and South’s Aidan Szewczyk recovered. It was a game that North (0-2) easily could have won. There will be a rematch later in the season at North. “We did good stuff, and we did bad stuff,” Allen said. “You can’t fumble inside the 10 twice.”No one played harder for North than Graylan “Bam Bam” Anderson. “He had a big hit on a kickoff, and he’s a little kid,” Allen said in amaze-ment. “He plays anywhere we can find a spot for him. He’s the smallest kid but he plays hard every time. When he laid the wood on that kickoff, you heard it and said: ‘Who did that?’ They said: ‘That’s Bam Bam.’ He wrestles for us, too. He’s a little hammer. He wrestles South ... just like he plays football.”North and South split two meetings in 2021, with South winning 12-8 and North winning 29-14. Ellis At Ledford Ledford had more size than visiting Ellis. Ledford had plenty of athletes. And Ledford was ready for the Jaguars on Sept. 21, erasing their 7-0 lead by jumping ahead 8-7. “That team was good,” Ellis assistant coach Kendall Chaffin said. “That team was tough. That team had 60 kids and they were way bigger than us. When I say big, they were humongous. And they had athletes, too.”And now we play, “Guess the outcome.” The Jaguars ran into a team that leaned on them, wore them down and handed them their first loss? They finally faced an opponent that had too much speed and suffered their first loss since a game at Star- mount in the spring of 2021? Nope. Ellis demolished Ledford 35-8. The Jaguars continued to soar, scoring 28 unanswered points, improv-ing to 3-0 and extending their winning streak to 11. (The program record for longest winning streak is 15, set from 2010-12.)“We had a slobberknock-er,” Chaffin said. “We didn’t play a pushover today, I can promise you that. Our guys balled out. I mean they really grinded. There was a ton of people there and we stunned them.

Among the defensive leaders were J’seire Arnold (12 tackles, three sacks), Forrest (10 tackles, sack) and Bowling (eight tackles). Cornatzer and Hughes had interceptions. Ellis’ play was beyond inspiring. “(Forest’s 7-of-7 pass-ing) is unheard-of in middle school,” Chaffin said. “They probably had three first downs all day. They scored on us because we missed some tackles.” DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022 - B7 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record After enduring a brutal stretch to start the season, the South Davie soccer team got a much-needed win, 2-0, at Ellis on Sept. 19. The Tigers (1-3) were outscored 17-1 by NCLA, Wesleyan and North Davie. “You can slowly see us getting better each game,” coach Russell Hilton said. “We’ve got pretty much a whole new team this year, but they’ve been working hard and you can see their hard work starting to pay off. The three teams (that beat South) are probably the best three teams in the conference. I mean, North Davie is the team to beat by far. Wesleyan is right there with them and NCLA is pretty good, too.”South got both goals in the first half, starting with Hamza Heikal, who scored in spectacular fashion. “He scored 40 yards away on a free kick,” Hil-ton said. “He’s got a big foot. It was in the top corner over the keeper’s head. No goalie was saving that. He was just trying to kick it as far as he could, and usually it’s not going to go that far. He’s looking for somebody else in the box to try to head it or deflect it in. But he just drained it. It looked like Steph Curry out there from midfield.”The breathing-room goal was supplied by David Her-nandez Moreno. “Andy Dejesus Longares was one-on-one with the keeper,” Hilton said. “He shot it, but it went too high and it deflected off the cross-bar. David was there to chest it in.”Hilton has defenders (Heikal, Jose Roque-Ibarra, Jean Anguiano Avila, Javier Miranda Barrera and An-derson Branham) who are constant difference-makers. “They are fast and they limited (Ellis’) chances,” he said. “Yeah, we’ve given up some goals this year, but without those guys, it would be a lot more.”Hilton loves his goal-ie, seventh grader William Martin, and Branham is a Swiss Army knife as a sixth grader. “We’ve got a really good goalie,” he said. “Anderson has been playing with the Fusion. That kid can play anywhere. He plays defense, too, when we run five de-fenders. He plays offense, he plays mid, he’s our backup goalie.”•••After beating Ellis, the Tigers (1-5) suffered two hard-fought losses. They fell short 2-1 at home to For-bush on Sept. 20, and they couldn’t find any offense in a 2-0 decision at Summit on Sept. 22. Roque-Ibarra did provide a highlight-reel goal against Forbush that tied the game at 1-1. “He made it from about 45 yards out,” Hilton said. “It was another amazing shot.”Ellis 2, Phoenix 1Ellis picked up a nice win at Phoenix Academy on Sept. 20. Santiago Maganda and Osiel Romero scored in the first half and the Jaguars held on to even their record at 2-2. “We are looking for ways to effectively and efficiently get the ball to them more often,” coach Susan Jones said. “That is something we are continuing to work on as we move to our next games.”Playing big parts in the win were goalie Nathan Harding (eight saves), Ma-son Norman, Brandon Mar-tinez, Austin Eggers and Seager Brooks. “Mason had a save while playing left defensive back,” Jones said. “He was in the right spot at the right time to prevent the ball from sneaking in while there were bodies all around the goal. “There wasn’t one per-son who didn’t have a hand in some of our defensive stops. Brandon continued to be a force at sweeper, and Austin and Seager always seemed to be in the mix defensively.”VolleyballNorth Davie’s volleyball team won 2-1 at Millennium Charter and 2-0 at home over High Point Christian. A three-match winning streak has lifted the Wildcats to 4-4. South Davie won in two sets at Summit, giving the Tigers a 5-2 record. But the hottest team in the county is Ellis. Mela-nie Watson, Breanna Tolar, Ella Shea, Allie Miller and Quinn Cornatzer were the key servers in a 25-17, 25-10 win at Phoenix Academy. In the first match of a home doubleheader against North Carolina Leadership Academy, Miller, Shea, Av-ery Mallory, Cornatzer and Tolar were the top servers in 25-18, 25-10 victory. In the second match against NCLA, the Jaguars got effective serving from Shea and Watson, while Miller, Kate Nicholson and Riley Barnes were standouts as Ellis (6-2) rallied for a 24-26, 25-19, 15-12 win. “Allie was a beast at the net,” coach Beth Hall-Love said after Ellis’ fourth straight win. “Kate and Ri-ley were very strong on the front row.” South soccer beats EllisUpcoming Games Wednesday, Sept. 28Davie JV/varsity soccer at home vs. Glenn at 5:30/7Davie tennis at home vs. West Forsyth at 4:30Ellis football at South Davie at 4:30North Davie boys soccer at home vs. Summit at 4:30North Davie volleyball at home vs. Summit at 4:30North Davie football at Millennium Charter at 4:30North Davie cross country at Canterbury at 4:30Thursday, Sept. 29Davie JV football at Reagan at 6:30Davie JV/varsity volleyball at Reagan at 5/6:15South Davie girls tennis at Forsyth Country Day at 4:30South Davie volleyball at home vs. NCLA at 4:30South Davie boys soccer at home vs. NCLA at 4:30Ellis soccer at Wesleyan at 4:30Ellis volleyball at Wesleyan at 4:30Ellis tennis at Wesleyan at 4:30North Davie boys soccer at Phoenix Academy at 4:30North Davie volleyball at Phoenix Academy at 4:30North Davie girls tennis at home vs. Summit at 4:30Friday, Sept. 30Davie varsity football at home vs. Reagan at 7North Davie girls tennis at home vs. Summit at 4:30Saturday, Oct. 1Davie cross country at Hagan Stone Classic Monday, Oct. 3Davie JV/varsity soccer at home vs. Reagan at 5:30/7Davie tennis at home vs. Parkland at 4:30Davie golf in CPC meet at Oak Valley at 4Ellis soccer at NCLA at 4:30Ellis volleyball at NCLA at 4:30Tuesday, Oct. 4Davie JV/varsity volleyball at Mt.

She attended Oak-dale School and graduated in 1933 from Cool Spring High School. At age 106, she was the oldest known living school alumnus at the time of her death. In 1939 she married Clyde Monroe Hollar of Iredell. From the mid-1950s to the 1970s, the couple and their chil-dren Shirley and Clyde Jr., lived on US 64 just east of the school. A devoted wife and mother, Nannie enjoyed homemaking and crafts and adored her grandson Chris. A longtime faithful member of Oakdale Baptist Church, she was laid to rest Wednes-day of last week in a private graveside service at Iredell Memorial Gardens beside her beloved husband, who died December 1978.Eddie Porter continues to need physical therapy at home.

(StatePoint) From the walk-in closet to the kitch-en pantry, catch-all spots make all the difference in daily routines -- but only if they’re kept neat and tidy.Family organizing expert Jessica Litman, also known as “The Organized Mama,” is on a mission to help fam-ilies declutter and stay orga-nized. She’s sharing her pro tips for getting your home in shape for this busy time of year.Clear Away Cabinet Clutter ‘Tis the season for au-tumn chili, stew and other comfort foods. That means it’s also time to put your essential slow cookers and pans where you can reach them, so food prep will be hassle-free.“When the weather starts to cool, I swap out summer cookware for winter bake-ware,” says Litman. “I put the grilling items in the back of the cabinet and pull the turkey roaster and baking dishes to the front.”For added storage, Lit-man recommends using a shelf rack or vertical orga-nizer to keep cutting boards and pie pans neatly upright and easily accessible.Prep the PantryCreate a system that gives grab-and-go snacks and cooking necessities a home. This will help keep the kitchen tidy in the midst of busy work and school schedules.“Do a pantry cleanout,” Litman says. “Remove ev- erything from the area and wipe down the shelves. Take the canned goods you didn’t eat and donate them to a local food bank.”New shelf linersInstall new shelf liners and new containers to re-store order to the space. Measure the shelves, cut the liner to length and then lay it flat. Shelf liners can be durable, waterproof and designed to keep surfaces dry while making them easy to wipe clean. Use the mea-surements to get an idea of what size bins will best fit the area. Store crackers, ce-real, oats and pasta in clear containers with labels, and put spices and seasonings in a slim organizer.“Set up items similarly to grocery store shelves by placing like items together,” Litman suggests. “When you do this, it's like you are shopping in your pantry in-stead of hunting for things.”Out with the OldBefore pulling out your fall wardrobe, declutter the piles of “stuff” from the closet. This will make your space seem bigger and more organized.“Remove clothes from this past season,” Lit-man recommends. “Look through each garment. If you didn’t wear it, donate, toss or sell it.”Now that there is more room, hang an over-the-door shoe rack for rain boots and work shoes and use a closet organizer to store accessories, such as belts, purses and scarves. Litman also recommends dry clean-ing winter jackets now so they’re ready to wear when cold weather comes.Find Balance in the BathroomWhether it’s the primary bath or the kids’ washroom, make the most of space by organizing everything into categories, like towels and haircare. Once everything is grouped, decide what will be kept where based on the areas. Use a tray on the counter and bins in drawers.Litman says to wipe and line surfaces, especially un-der the sink, with Solid Grip EasyLiner with Clorox be-fore putting essentials away. Antimicrobial agents inhibit mold and mildew growth to protect the liner, and will catch makeup smudges and water spills to give the area an extra clean feeling. She recommends waiting until after organizing to buy bins and caddies, so you know exactly what you need.

This is the act of do-ing indoor things – dining, working, entertaining, exer-cising and even vacationing – outdoors, in backyards. According to the Turf-Mutt Foundation, which advocates for the care and use of green space, Amer-icans have taken their backyarding practices up a notch. “We really appreci-ate their time outdoors – not only in the great expanses of nature, but also in their own backyards,” says Kris Kiser, President and CEO of the TurfMutt Founda- Fall Home & Garden Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022 BX Series 16.6-24.8 HP Easy operation There are many jobs.

Here are 10 things Mas-ter Backyarders do that all of us should emulate: • Help the environment on a micro-level. Having a living landscape, over arti-ficial grass, pavement and rocks, supports the envi-ronment. Green, growing plants, shrubs, trees and grass, captures and filters rainwater, produces oxygen, and absorbs carbon just to name a few benefits. Mas-ter Backyarders take small steps in their yard that make a big impact on environ-mental concerns.• Don’t let lack of space deter backyarding. Mas-ter Backyarders maximize every inch of their outdoor space, whether that means planting a container gar-den on a balcony, outfitting a small urban yard with shrubs and flower pots, or creating a backyard oasis in a large neighborhood lawn. • Creatively utilize out-door space. Master Back-yarders set up their yards for purpose with patio furni-ture, a fire pit, yard games, plenty of outdoor seating, string lights, and maybe even an outdoor kitchen or office space. And they use their backyards for every-thing – from working and exercising to vacationing and entertaining. • Put the right plants in the right place. Master Back-yarders know their climate zone and consider location, maintenance, sunlight and watering requirements be-fore they plant. They have the Plant Hardiness Zone Maps bookmarked so they are always prepared for proper planting. • Plant for pollinators & wildlife. Master Backyard-ers cultivate a living land-scape that supports a rich biodiversity with butterfly bushes, flowering plants, water sources, and trees and shrubs with nooks for nest-ing and food. • Get outside year-round. No fair weather backyard-ing here. Master Backyard-ers are outside during all four seasons. They under-stand advance planning and work in and use their green space year round. They plant in the fall for a glori-ous spring, remove snow to create useable areas, prune trees before bad weather hits and more. • Utilize community parks & public green space. Master Backyarders recog-nize the importance of man-aged landscapes throughout the community to create eco-corridors that are part of the worldwide ecosys-tem. They also appreciate and use these community gathering spots. • Teach kids the impor- tance of green space. Master Backyarders are mentors to the next generation, teach-ing kids to explore, play in and enjoy the nature right outside their backdoor. • Keep the family dog in mind. Master Backyarders understand that they aren’t the only ones who rely on their outdoor space, so they purpose their backyard with pets in mind. Sturdy turf-grass that stands up to pet play, soft foliage to create a natural barricade between off limits areas and the rest of the lawn, and trees and shrubs strategically planted for shade are all part of their master plan. • Embrace the hidden benefits of the backyard. Master Backyarders know they are getting a health boost when they spend time working in their yards since soil is the new Prozac and more physicians are prescribing time outdoors. Other hidden benefits of the yard Master Backyarders appreciate? Increased ener-gy, lower stress, improved mood just to name a few.

Fall is officially upon us and so is the time for pump-kins, muscadines, mums and sunflower mazes. Local farm stores have fresh Brushy Mountain ap-ples available to purchase locally.

There’s so much to discover right here at home, and there’s a new smart-phone app to help at the touch of a finger.The Visit NC Farms App helps connect consumers with local farms and farm experiences. Using cell phone technology, residents and visitors can find farms closest to them with prod-ucts and activities that in-terest them. Visitors can use the app to explore farms, farmers markets and agri-tourism operations off the beaten path and unique to each community. The app is available for free download on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Learn more at visitncfarmstoday.com. The N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services launched the Visit NC Farms App in 2018 as a pilot program. With the help of the North Carolina Tobacco Trust Fund Com-mission, the initiative is expanding statewide to con-nect millions of residents and visitors with local farms and fisheries, local food and drink, farmers markets and u-pick, value-added prod-ucts available through lo-cal shops, farm stays and lodging, tours and trails and special agricultural events across the state.“N.C. Cooperative Ex-tension is pleased to be leading and coordinating this agricultural econom-ic development project for Davie County, and we thank the Davie County Chamber of Commerce for their sup-port,” said Colleen Church, Davie Extension director. “ Davie has a strong start on the App, and there is still room for additional assets to join. Davie is home to a variety of diversified small family farms, vineyards, apiaries, agritourism oper-ations, greenhouses, nurs-eries and related agribusi-nesses. Many day-trippers are looking to connect with farms and local food; they just need to know about the places they can visit and how to get there.”Farms and related busi-nesses that are interested in joining the App should con-tact Church or Susan Haw-kins with N.C.

By Jack SmithForsyth County ExtensionMaster Gardener When planning a new lawn, careful consideration must be made on the site itself and then selecting the type of grass. Table 9-1 in the NC Ex-tension Gardener Handbook Chapter 9: Lawns gives characteristics of typical turf species grown in NC. Be sure to look at the Pied- Fall Home & Garden Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022 (StatePoint) There’s no better time to prep yourself and your family for the un-expected. According to the Associ-ation of International Cer-tified Public Accountants, nearly 30% of people have not taken any steps to pre-pare their family for a nat-ural disaster, yet more than 60% of Americans believe they will likely be impacted by one in the next three to five years.Pack Your “Go Bag”This is a disaster kit that ensures that you ahave ev-erything needed in an emer-gency. The American Red Cross recommends packing an emergency radio, water container, food supply for three days, a personal hy-giene kit, a first aid kit and medications. If you have a pet, have enough food, med-ications, a leash, collar, ID tags and a crate or kennel in case you need to evacuate to a public shelter. Some other items to include are a flash-light, batteries, multi-tools, duct tape, exam gloves and hand sanitizer.Stay InformedThere are apps and alerts you can sign up for to stay on top of any weather de-velopments. Get the latest storm forecasts online from NOAA’s National Weather Service and the National soil and keep it nearby if needed.After shaping the site to the desired look redistribute topsoil above the subsoil. Note that a 2% to 3% slope is needed for proper drain-age away from buildings.Be wary of bring in top-soil from another source. This could introduce need weeds or diseases to your site.Firm the soil after shap-ing. Footprints should not be seen when walking over soil. To help the soil settle, water the area, and fill any areas that show standing water.FertilizationA soil test should be made before planting a new lawn to determine nutrients needed. Soil testing kits can be picked up in Forsyth County at the Demonstra-tion Garden at 1450 Fair-child Rd, Winston-Salem. Kits can be found in the brochure holder below the Demonstration Garden sign.Mail completed kits to the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consum-er Service’s soil testing lab in Raleigh. Depending on the season, there may be a modest charge. The NCDA will email you the soil test results. Local Extension agents can assist if you need help understanding the re-port. Fertilize before planting, applying the amount of lime and fertilizer recommended by the soil test. Work the lime and fertilizer into the top 6 to 8 inches of the soil using a disk or rototiller this encourages a deep root sys-tem allowing the grass to pull more moisture and nu-trients from the soil.Planting a New LawnThere are several options to select from when plant-ing a new lawn. Regardless of the method, it is advised to purchase certified seed or sod. A blue certified tag indi-cates that the seed or plants have met certain standards to assure high quality and low levels of contaminants. The NC Crop Sod Produc-ers Association offers a list of certified sod producers on its website.Seeding is the most eco-nomical method of estab-lishing grasses.Vegetative planting is necessary for some grasses that do not produce viable seed (seed that will germi-nate).Space planting is the planting of separate shoots or sprigs at regular spacings. This labor-intensive meth-od is best used for planting small areas.Plugging is planting in-dividual pieces. This meth-od is often used to introduce a more adapted lawn grass into an old lawn by crowd-ing the old grass out.Sodding is placing sod stripped from one site to an-other for an “instant” lawn.MaintenanceWatering a new lawn is important. Try to keep the top 1.5 inches of the soil moist. Depending on con-ditions, a light watering two or three times a day for 7 to 21 days may be needed. As the seedlings grow and root, water less often but for lon-ger periods. After the third mowing, the lawn is con-sidered established and you can follow the recommend-ed watering schedule.Mow a new lawn when the grass is 50 percent high-er than the desired height. How often you will need to mow is will be determined by the environment and the natural growth rate of the grass. Suggested heights of cut can be found in the Lawn Maintenance Calen-dar mentioned before. Cut lawn often enough that less than one-third of the total leaf surface is removed.Fungicides and insecti-cides are rarely needed on new lawns. Weeds are com-mon and it is environmen-tally responsible to have some tolerance of weeds in a lawn. If weeds are deemed a problem, and pesticides or herbicides are used, always read and follow label direc-tions. mont section of the table. Additional information on required care for these grass types is available in lawn maintenance calendars de-veloped by N.C. Coopera-tive Extension.Site PreparationTo prepare a new lawn, determine if the site needs grading and plan for drain-age issues. Other items to consider as you are planning a site for a new lawn are:• How will the lawn be New lawns require carefull preparation work accessed for mowing and fertilizing in the future?• Terraces and steep grades can make maintain the lawn a challenge.• Seek the advice of a professional if there are poorly drained areas to de-termine if and what type of drain may be needed.• Heavily shaded spots are difficult places to estab-lish a lawn.If grading is needed, re-move 4 to 8 inches of top- & PARKING LOT STRIPING Rustin Harpe, Owner 397 Green Hill Rd.

Be- ing bounded on the west by the property of Cletus R. Miller (Deed Book 203, Page 201), and bound- ed on the North by Excalibur Lane, Fireside Lane lying on the east and being bounded on the south by the property of George Washington Dulin (Deed Book 110, Page 329).

Address: 130 Excalibur Lane The sale will be made subject to all existing easements and restric- tions, any superior liens, all out- standing city and county taxes, all local improvement assessments against the above-described prop- erty not included in the judgment in the above-entitled cause, any prior lien in favor of the State of North Carolina, any right of re- demption of the United States and any rights of any persons in pos- session. A deposit of the greater of $750.00 or five (5) percent of the successful bid will be required at the time of sale unless the highest bid is by a taxing unit; then a de- posit shall not be required. In the instance where multiple tax parcels are indicated in this No- tice, the Commissioner may elect to sell all of the parcels either in one sale, or on the sale date indi- cated sell each parcel individually by conducting a separate sale for each, or group various parcels together for several sales, or not conduct a sale at all on one or more parcels, as the Commission- er determines in his sole discre- tion as being most likely to sell the parcels at a price adequate to pay all taxes due, as well as fees and costs. Any party contemplating the filing of an upset bid is therefore strongly encouraged to consult the Clerk of Court records to ascertain the parcel or parcels included in the sale for which an upset bid is planned. Upon delivery of the deed, the winning bidder shall be required to pay the costs of recordation of the deed, including deed stamp taxes due to the Register of Deeds.

Due to the extended quarantine of COVID-19, this event has been missed the last two years. The guest speaker will be the Rev. Jan Brittain, recent-ly retired and is an Elder with the United Methodist Church. Brittain was first scheduled in 2020, and again in 2021. When Brittain commit-ted her life to Christian service at age 16, she didn’t know any women pas-tors and assumed her life would take her overseas in missionary work. But God had other plans, and she served congregations of all sizes and many locations. She grew up the child of a United Methodist pastor in South Carolina, and so she knew the life. She counts her children and grandchil-dren among her greatest blessings. Brittain’s personal the-ology is that God’s moti-vation is always love, the Jesus’s death on the cross is the means to our salvation, there are three essentials for effective and faithful living: time spent with God’s word, time spent in prayer, and time spent with God’s people. Her belief is that God formed and chose the church, and as flawed as it is, it is still the chosen agent for doing His work in the world. Her theme this year: “I Want You to Have it All.” The Sprinkle Preaching Mission started from an endowment set in place in 1981 by Dr. and Mrs. Hen-ry Sprinkle. The idea was to host speakers for the com-munity each year to inspire and grow in the knowledge of God’s love. Dr. and Mrs. Sprinkle came back home to retire in Mocksville where he became the Pas- tor Emeritus. Dr. Sprinkle was a graduate of Duke and Yale universities, and was married to Margaret in 1930. They spent the majority of their lives trav-elling the world for mis-sionary work. They spent time in Europe, South and Central America, the Ca-ribbean, Africa, Asia, and Australia, but were hap-py to settle in Mocksville to enjoy their retirement. Never one to stay still, Dr. Sprinkle was a golfer and could be found each day on the course at Hickory Hill Country Club (now Colin Creek Golf Club) where he was a charter member. All are welcome. There will be five services: Sun-day, Oct. 2 at 9 a.m., 11 a.m. (the two morning ser-vices will be the same mes-sage) and 7 p.m.; and Mon-day and Tuesday evenings at 7. Each evening service will be preceded by an old-fashioned Hymn Sing at 6:45, and there will be special music for each ser-vice, and childcare for ages 5 and under. An offering will be taken with proceeds divided as one fourth back to the SPM endowment, one fourth to the Backpack Buddies program spon-sored by the church, one fourth to the Hunger Fight- ers program at Davie High School, and one fourth to UMCOR (United Method-ist Committee on Relief) for U.S. Disaster Response.
