Davie County Enterprise Record 10-13-2022USPS 149-160 Number 41 Thursday, Oct. 13, 2022 24 Pages 75¢ Gone to the apes Seniors visit zoo; attend ‘Hello Dolly’ and learn bocce in September 89076 3821260Page 8 Page 7 Wear Purple Support domestic violence prevention, awareness By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record When there’s a potential problem with the town of Mocksville’s drinking water supply, town officials want all customers to know.It happened last Friday.Brian Moore and his public works crews had been working for hours to try to isolate a ma-jor water line break for repairs. They had to use shutoffs that created low pressure and out-ages, primarily north of I-40. This triggered a state-required precautionary boil water notice the town had to distribute by the end of the business day.Town Manager Ken Gam-ble said staff immediately contacted Davie County Com-munications and requested a Hyper-Reach message to get the notice out to customers. They also posted the informa-tion on the town’s Facebook page, website and an automat-ed telephone message on the main town hall line. They sent the information to local news media, and sent up-dates to those sources. One of the issues, after the line was fixed, water had to be collected and sent for testing. Those results weren’t received Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record Enka D’Amore-Yncera knows what it’s like to be that single mother who, at this time of year, begins to worry.The children, of course, be-gin to get excited about Christ-mas at this time of the year. Parents struggling financial-ly begin to worry about paying for those presents.She’s in a better place now, and wants to do her part to help local families provide presents for their children this Christ-mas.A newcomer to Davie Coun-ty, Enka was looking at a Face-book message when someone asked about a Marine Cops Reserve Toys for Tots program in Davie County. There wasn’t one. She didn’t let it go, and began an investigation.Davie County hadn’t par-ticipated in Toys for Tots since 2018, when the coordinator then pretty much aged out of the position. She made it her mission to change that.But it takes more than col-lecting toys. To be a coordina-tor, she was required to attend three days of training, where she interacted with other coor-dinators, some who have been at it for years.“It was a great three days to feed off of each others’ ideas,” she said. “The main thing was to learn to do the financial part properly, just learning from the coordinators who have been doing this for 30 years.” Many business owners prob-ably have met Enka already. She’s been out and about, in-troducing herself and trying to get the word out about Toys for Tots.The biggest need right now is a space to collect, and then distribute toys, preferably a storefront or small warehouse with easy accessibility. They would need it until the first or second week in January, she said.“This is a community will-ing to help somebody. Thisis the best community to do this in,” she said.The boxes will start ap-pearing in stores soon, ready for folks to drop in new toys to be distributed at Christmas. Money will also be accepted, to make last-minute shopping trips for gifts for a certain age group that may not have had enough toys donated.Her goal is to distribute the toys on Dec. 18.One thing is for sure. She doesn’t want any parent to go through what she did, counting what little money was left on Christmas Eve before going to buy whatever she could.“It’s a way for my teacher’s heart to do something for chil-dren, because I’ve been that mom - that single mom - who wondered what could I put un-der the tree.”To volunteer or make a donation, contact D’Amore-Yncera at 860-518-4916 or visit mocksville-nc@toysfor-tots.org.

Box 99, Mocksville, NC 27028 Cooleemee Journal 1901-1971 When is CRT not CRT? Signs, signs, everywhere there’s signs To the editor:In a previous article about “History should include all perspectives,” I was accused of maligning two presenters and that the information of the article was false. I certainly did not intend to slander and degrade anyone. This was cer-tainly not my intent. But the essence of the article was right on. What I didn’t do was make a clear connection between the onslaught of a teacher at DDCC teaching critical think-ing and the latest boogey man theory regarding critical race teaching (CRT). That was my fault. As to the allegation by Mr. Bivins as my not attending any of the previous meet-ings, that is false. I was at one with a fellow board member and I have heard much from both of the speakers and oth-ers since then.The attack on critical thinking is an important link to the current CRT, critical race teaching, phenomena that I failed to make. For it is critical thinking that these proponents of critical race teaching need to attack in order to succeed preventing history and social studies from dealing with the truth as opposed to their truth.However, this public discussion can be helpful to all of us to better understanding what CRT is, and is not. Their CRT is not the CRT as originally developed decades ago. Then it was all theory; critical race theory. This CRT (the-ory) identifies alternative narratives that do not exclude the perspective of the people who write curricula, laws, policies and textbooks. It is an analytical tool taught in law school to help identify sources of discrimination in law and policy. It is used as a framework for inquiry; an inquiry perhaps as to the different perspective of a word such as privilege.It has nothing to do with teaching children to hate them-selves or one another. This conceptual misunderstanding has created numerous school board conflicts and fights among various public officials and governing groups. One of our Board of Commissioners recently took to the floor to emotionally emphasize we have a problem with CRT and we have to stop it.The proponents of CRT, critical race teaching, are fear-ful of white students being made to feel inferior as the truth of actual history is revealed. This doesn’t have to be but this is how CRT the theory has been weaponized to be the CRT (teaching) currently banded about.This is what parents and school boards are fighting about right now. Should students learn more about our history and be able to identify the many ways our viewpoints are created or not? This is not critical race teaching (the wea-ponized CRT), although it has been labeled as such, but rather a push to include a broader scope of US history, to expand student’s awareness of the complexity of our coun-try’s story.Including non-white groups tends to disrupt the Ameri-can narrative because people from these groups have not been able to succeed in the ways our traditional narrative describes.When we tell our children that Mexicans have been liv-ing on our Southern Border for at least 350 years, and they became aliens because we moved the border, students are surprised and confused.When students learn that Black people were excluded from buying houses in many neighborhoods after WWII because of federal mortgage policies, they become con-fused and angry. There is a long list of such inequities. Critical thinking skills and respectful dialogue are required to understand this type of information and think about why it happened and what it means to all Americans. What we teach should reflect an accurate view of our world so our children can live in it with competence and compassion; as our religious beliefs guide us. WWJD. They need to know how to choose a home, a car, a retire-ment plan. We also need to teach them how to handle the political rhetoric that constantly assaults our eardrums and how to decide what opinions are based on accurate ideas and data. This is a difficult process but one that is important in a world that is no longer Black and Vanilla ice cream but rather Neapolitan and one where the options include sprinkles and other items. Without critical thinking, this won’t happen.David Carroll, MocksvilleMember, Davie Board of Education To the editor:Well, it's good to see that some citizens are listened to by the elected officials. Unlike the spot zoning at Farmington Road and US-158 the Bermuda Run citizens gleaned the correct official state-ment ("finding the amendment is not consistent with the ... Comprehensive Plan and does not consider the action to be reasonable and in the public interest, that the proposal is not consistent with the desired character of the surrounding community ..." Not consistent is exactly what the few who spoke against the spot zoning stated. Now the area will probably be subjected to 24 hours a day of truck traffic at an already busy intersection (which is about to get busier with a couple of hundred new Ashley employees coming over from Statesville due to the Ashely plant closing there). The area is and should have remained RA zoned with rural subdivision enclaves and light com-mercial road frontage corridor. A mixed use community with affordable senior and new homeowner housing is what is needed - the public interest - as opposed to yet an-other distribution center (watching the news lately, such things are closing in several locations). Jobs - and a distro center will provide relatively few - are within commuting distance. So, what's wrong with coming home to the country? You can bet the folks who lost jobs in Statesville will spend their salaries there, not in Davie. Same thing with the few jobs a spec built distribution center will provide. The turnout in Bermuda Run indicates that at least some part of the population hasn't been beaten down by the "they'll just do what they want to do and not listen to us " mantra. Good for them. Of course, they have a concise vot-ing block unlike Davie with its at-large system, but that's another discussion.William VaughanMocksville At least the BR board listens to residents West VirginiaBy Gaye HootsFour members of our writer’s guild toured the New Riv-er Gorge and the surrounding areas this past week. Stepha-nie planned and organized the three-night trip. We stopped in Beckley and went into the tunnels of a coal mine, now a tourist attraction. A small trolley car took us through the mine, and a former miner who had spent 11 years toiling in the mines showed the equipment and explained how it was used; much of the ore was dug out by picks, often while the miner was on his back or side.The mine owners owned the houses the miners lived in, and the company store was the only place they could pur-chase any items without risk of losing their job. The mine superintendents had a large homes with modern conve-niences on a hill overlooking the shanties where the miners lived. The pay was not enough to feed a family, and if a miner died, his family was set out of the home they lived in and replaced by the family of the miner taking the de-ceased’s job in the mine.Our guide told us he had lost his father and his two old-est brothers to Black Lung Disease by the time they were 60 years old, and that death was excruciatingly painful. His boss had instructed him to ask for a respirator the first day he reported to work. He was told others would make fun of him for wearing it; evidently, it was considered unmanly, but it saved his life. His stories were interesting and when we bid him goodbye, we were unaware we would see him again.Marie drove, so I could fully enjoy the magnificent mountain views. Beckley was familiar territory as I had been there many times with a friend who attended week-ly car auctions. Our Airbnb was in Fayetteville and was a historic home in the downtown area. It was beautifully furnished, and everything was for sale. I brought home a still life for my kitchen. We were beside a restaurant across the street from other restaurants and a convenience store. Each day we explored a new area, including the New River Gorge area, which we drove over and then took a jet boat ride under and for a few miles upstream from the dam. The bridgework is a form of art with a backdrop of the moun-tains and a perfectly blue sky. The river was lined with small fishing huts, and our guide, an interesting character with his long beard, flannel shirt, and colorful suspenders said he had a fishing shed there. The railroad owned the land, but in the past, they granted permission to people for the huts, and while no longer doing this, they let the origi-nal ones be repaired and used. We also visited Hawk’s Nest State Park for the views.Tuesday, we went to Babcock State Park and Glade Creek Grist Mill. The mill was closed, but we enjoyed the views from all angles, and the gift shop was open. Ca-thedral Falls and Kanawha Falls were beautiful, and we topped the day off by visiting Nuttallburg, an old mining town from the past. Julie drove this winding trail that was literally a pig path. When a vehicle followed us, we joked about scenes from “Deliverance” until the car turned off. At the end of the track were foundations of an old building or two and a dozen cars. The other girls hit a trail into the woods and discovered one of the highlights of our trip. Please See Renegade ‑ Page 3 Signs. Signs. Everywhere there’s signs. (Messing) up the scenery, Breaking my mind. Do this, don’t do that. Can’t you read the sign. The lyrics to that Les Emmerson song from the 60s are still true today. And like the song, the signs are just a sign of the times, so to speak. We’ve become a society of “you can’t do that here.” And the signs let us know exactly what you can’t do, or aren’t supposed to do in a particular location.There are too many rules in this world. And people seem to go a bit too far when explaining those rules, especially on the signs.Returning from vacation in a high-rise beach rental, there were plenty of rules. And there were plenty of signs announcing those rules: at every door, on the re-frigerator, on the glass doors to the balcony, next to the pool, on the way to the beach. If you stopped and read them all, you would never make it anywhere.No smoking. I understand that. No non-smoker wants to smell leftover, stale cigarette smoke. Heck, most smokers don’t want to smell that, either. But the folks who run these places didn’t stop at that. Not only did the signs say “No Smoking,” they added or vaping, or marijuana, or cigars, or e-devices ... Apparently, no smoking means more than just no smoking. I even wonder if I would have been charged for smoking a brisket on the grill the resort provided. Probably.This resort also outlawed horseplay. That’s right. Horseplay. Maybe they meant playing with horses, be-cause there’s no way to stop pre-teen boys from engag-ing in a little horseplay - especially if there are pre-teen girls around. I saw it myself, but didn’t see any rules police jerking them off the pool deck by their ears. Were the signs just suggestions?Just going to the beach, you’re bombarded with signs. One was a flag explanation, which could be helpful. Different color flags represent different surf conditions, pretty important to those Canadians who thought the ocean temperature was like a hot tub.But the sign also says what is not allowed on the beach: unleashed pets, litter, illegal drugs, fireworks, fires, glass bottles, tents and probably a few I don’t remember. Thank goodness I didn’t read that sign until the last day. One of the rules: no alcoholic beverages on the beach. Oh well, rules are made to be broken and signs are erected to be ignored. Take those speed limit signs, for instance. Drive the speed limit in many places and you’re creating a slow-driving hazard.Speaking of driving, if you pay attention to every billboard and road sign, there’s no way to keep your eye on the road. Signs are not only annoysome, they can be dangerous.One of my favorites of all time was seen in Georgia, a public service billboard urging folks to learn how to read. This was a sign with words. I’m all for fighting illiteracy, but if you can’t read, how can a sign direct you to learn how? That one was probably placed with public funds. And the sign says “Everybody welcome,Come in Kneel down and pray” But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all And I didn’t have a penny to pay. So I got me a pen and paper. And I made up my own (little) sign. I said Thank you Lord, for thinking about me. I’m alive and doing fine. Yes, alive and doing fine. Thank you, Lord. I may make a sign saying just that.- Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Oct. 13, 2022 - 3 Presidential Sites By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise How many Presidents of the United States were born in Arkansas? One - William Jeffer-son Clinton, who is usually called Bill Clinton. William Jefferson Clinton became the 42nd President of the United States. Bill Clinton was born in Hope, Ark. to Virginia Cassidy Blythe. His father, William Jefferson Blythe Jr., was killed in an acci-dent a few weeks before his son was born. Virginia took her new baby boy to her parents’ home when she left the hospital. Bill lived in that house until he was 4. Part of that time he was cared for by his grand-parents because his mother went to New Orleans to get training to be a nurse anes-thetist. That house in Hope which was Bill Clinton’s first home is listed as an Arkansas Historic Site and it is open to the public.When Bill was about 4, his mother married Roger Clinton. They moved to another house in Hope and then moved to Hot Springs Ark. Bill began call-ing himself Clinton even though it was not legally his name until much later when it was finally changed legally. Roger Clinton mis-treated his wife so badly that she finally divorced him. Roger Clinton begged her to take him back which she finally did. Bill did well in school in spite of the fact that things were not good at home. He was never interested in sports, but he loved play-ing in the marching band in high school. He even played with a dance band. While Bill Clinton was in high school, he attended Boys’ State, where students go to the state capital to learn about state govern-ment. Bill found that in-teresting and was so happy when he was chosen as one of Arkansas’ two delegates to Boys’ Nation, which of course involved a trip to Washington to study the federal government. While the boys were in Washing-ton, they were invited to the White House, and Bill Clinton got to shake the hand of President John F. Kennedy. That seemed to be a life-shaping experi-ence for Clinton. When he got home, he told his moth-er about that experience. She said that she knew then that Bill would be involved in politics as he grew older.After graduation from high school in Hot Springs, Clinton enrolled in George-town University in Wash-ington, D.C., an appropriate place for a person interested in government. He got a job working in Sen. Fulbright’s office. While Bill was at Georgetown, his stepfather got deathly ill and died. Two years after his death, Clinton’s mother married Jeff Dwire. That marriage was cut short when Dwire got sick and died. Eight years later Clinton’s mother married Richard Kelly and that marriage lasted until Clinton’s mother’s death in 1994. She had lived to see her prediction about her son beginning involved in politics come true in a big way because her son was elected President in 1993.Now we will look at that journey from Little Rock to the Presidency which Bill Clinton made, even though he had less than stable home life. During his last year at Georgetown Univer-sity, Clinton was named a Rhodes Scholar so he went to Oxford Universi-ty in England for a year. During that year, he did a great deal of traveling around Europe which stood him in good staid as his career developed. After he returned from Oxford, he enrolled in Yale University. While at Yale he met Hil-lary Rodham who would late play an important part in his life. After graduating from Yale, he went back home to Little Rock and got a job teaching at the univer-sity. Bill Clinton loved Ar-kansas but he never expect-ed Hillary, a big city girl, to come there. She not only came, but stayed and got a job at the prestigious Rose Law Firm. In 1975, Bill and Hillary were married. In 1976, Clinton was elected as the Attorney General of Arkansas. A few years later, he was elected the Governor of Arkan-sas, the youngest ever. The governor’s term is Aransas is only two years. In the election, after serving only two years, Clinton lost. He concluded that he tried to do too much too fast. He said that he had managed to make everyone in Ar-kansas mad - the farmers, the loggers, the teachers, etc. He spent the next two years traveling around the state listening to what peo-ple wanted and needed and meeting important people. He won the election two years later. He kept winning until 1992, when he decid-ed to seek the Democratic nomination for President. The Governor’s Mansion in Arkansas, which was home to the Clintons for 12 years, is open to the public for tours. If you want to visit that site, best you call for information. Most of you remem-ber the election in 1993, when newcomer William Jefferson Clinton defeat-ed the incumbent Presi-dent George H.W. Bush. A dejected George Bush and his wife, Barbara, left Washington for their home in Texas. Bill and Hillary Clinton and their daughter, Chelsea, moved into the White House. (By the way, Clinton and George H. W. Bush became friends in lat-er years.)The presidency of Mr. Clinton had its pluses and minuses. He made univer-sal health care a priority, and he failed completely. He was able to balance the budget - a rare achieve-ment. The book, The Amer-ican President, by the Kun-hardts, says, “He genuinely cared about race relations, and he appointed women to some of the highest po-sitions in the national gov-ernment. He worked for peace in Ireland and the Middle East, and, while highlighting the ongoing problem of the American’s poor, presided over one of the strongest economic booms of the 20th century.” Of course, the only thing that some people remember about Clinton is that he was impeached. He was tried in the Senate and was not convicted just as the last president before him to be impeached - Andrew John-son - was not convicted. In the ratings of presidents by presidential scholars, Clin-ton in ranked 19th. At the present time, the former President Clinton is living in Chappaqua, N.Y., and enjoys his role as grandfa-ther to his two grandchil-dren, a boy and a girl. Anyone interested in presidential history should visit the William Jefferson Clinton Library in Little Rock, an outstanding facil-ity designed like no other with a futurist look as it juts out over the Arkansas Riv-er. The stories of the lives of the Clintons are found there as well as exhibits. There are also enough documents to keep the researcher busy for a long time. Call 501-374-4242 for information.

State, and this has been her only Extension job.“I love Davie County. The people here are so nice. It’s a great place and we have a great volunteer base.”•Lisa Crowder, the first person folks see as they walk in the door at Wilkes-boro Street, is also the local Extension’s new video edi-tor.“We all have learned how to do videos,” she said. “I guess I’m the editor and the publisher. It’s fun. We will be putting more videos out.”She said Extension is the first phone call for some folks seeking information, and the last for others as they’ve exhausted other possibilities.“We get to help a lot of people. We’ve learned how to talk to people for a liv-ing.” She also likes working in Davie. “We’ve got a good team.”Crowder, a Yadkin County native, earned a de-gree in organizational com-munications from Cedar-ville (Ohio) University.•Karen Robertson’s first job was at the Davie Exten-sion office, some 31 years ago. She had seen an ad for an office assistant, applied and was hired by former di-rector Ronnie Thompson.“I was in 4-H, other than that, I knew very little about Extension,” she said. “I’ve learned a lot. And the people I’ve worked with have been great. If I didn’t like my job, I wouldn’t have stayed this long.”•Extension’s 4-H program is where all that information at their disposal reaches the younger generation. Danny Lough has been heading the Davie program since 2020.This is his first Extension job after teaching at Forsyth Country Day School, where he taught three subjects from kindergartners to 11th graders.“When this opportunity came up, I thought, how cool is that. I had bumped into the 4-H curriculum while teaching.”Most 4-H clubs nowa-days are specific - like a shooting sports club, a horse club, a fishing club, homeschoolers, and a new one that will teach leader-ship skills.When Lough gradu-ated from the University of South Florida with a degree in science and biology, he had no idea what he was going to do. He worked at parks in Florida and Costa Rica before enrolling in the ecology and evolution graduate program at Wake Forest University.“That’s when I learned that I wanted to teach. I nev-er have the same day twice. It’s always something new.”The 4-H clubs are vol-unteer driven, with an adult leader who has a passion for teaching kids, Lough said.•Susan Hawkins, Da-vie’s horticulture agent, worked several jobs before landing with Extension. A horticulture graduate from the University of Georgia, she worked with Extension agents while working in the commercial sector.“I got to know that Ex-tension is for me because I like to help people.”And she never knows who will show up, some old-time landowners look-ing for a way to use the farms, and some newcom-ers with some new ideas.There’s a new Christmas tree farm. There’s a hops farm. There’s a heritage grains farm. The list goes on ... and all seek help from Extension.“I will tell them if I don’t know the answer, but I’ll tell them I’ll get back to them. If we don’t know something, we can call on the specialists.“My farmers are the clos-est to my heart. This is their livelihood, and I want them all to be successful. If I can help take some of that stress off them, I feel like I had a successful day at work.”She’s also in charge of the Master Gardener Volun-teer program. “I try to keep volunteers focused on the mission - to get information into the community. These volunteers care about their community, they want to make their community bet-ter.Of course, Extension also gets questions from people who have done their own research and begin to panic.Remember the murder hornets?•Phil Rucker, Davie and Yadkin’s livestock agent, has also seen plenty of changes in his 27 years with Extension. He remembers when Davie had 27 large farms, mostly dairies.“Now, we have no cow dairies and one goat dairy.”Rucker said it is impor-tant for agents to listen to those producers who some-time seek help. “We depend on them, because they’re the ones out there making the changes. When I see that light bulb go off and they’ve learned something, I know that I’ve done something that I was hired to do.”Computers, Rucker said, can be a blessing and a curse. They can help dis-seminate information more quickly, but is it always the right information? He’s seen more than one per-son who comes in and says “Well, I saw on the internet where ...”His advice: “Don’t be-lieve everything Dr. Google says.”Rucker said Extension, in one way, hasn’t changed at all. “It’s helping people put knowledge to work.”•Marsha McGraw is the filed crop agent for Davie, and has been at the job here for five years.And she’s proud of the farmers here. Davie Coun-ty has been a long-time record-holder for corn and soybean yields. That just doesn’t happen.“Part of it is the land, but mostly it’s the growers themselves who manage their land very well.” With the help of Extension, of course. “We have a lot of great growers in thecounty, and some young guys com-ing up as well.”McGraw earned a plant and soil science degree from the University of Arkansas, and a master’s from N.C. A&T, where she worked for 16 years at the university farm. McGraw enlists farmers to help with field trials for certain seeds; she advises the voluntary agricultural district board and teaches the pesticide certification classes here.“I fell in love with ag-riculture, and I love being outdoors doing that kind of work.” provement,” said Colleen Church, Davie Extension director. “Customers have easy access to parking, and now we have a teaching kitchen.”A 19-year Extension veteran, Church has been director in Davie for seven years. So she’s seen the changes.“With Covid and every-thing else, we work a lot more virtual. We’re doing more hybrid (virtual and in person) classes, and have started video production.”She admits that the vir-tual farm animal day for school children just wasn’t the same. There’s the smell of a farm, the feeling the children get just watching and learning about the ani-mals, Church said.They still get people coming by the office with a plant that is dying, and they want to know why. If staff doesn’t know, they have access to information from N.C. State University, and other sources.“We’re always here to help and serve the commu-nity,” she said.Church earned bach- It was a good year for sweet potatoes on Jerry “Flop” Barnes Advance farm, includ- ing this 6.5-pound behemoth.

Belle gave of her time in support of her church, Concord United Methodist and UMW, the Mocksville Garden Club, Mocksville Woman’s Club, and the Mocksville Home Extension Club, to name a few.

Steph-anie grabbed my camera and took several pictures. I don’t know when this will air, but I hope to catch it. The musi-cians are environmentalists opposed to some of the mining techniques used in West Virginia. Kathy Mattea’s Face-book page has excellent group pictures, and stated YoYo invited them.On our way home, we visited Sandstone Falls and Tam-arack, the craft store in Beckley. Thanks, girls, for a great trip. Erma BombeckBy Marie CraigWe were fortunate to be able to travel when my sons were young. I chose books for me to read out loud as we drove from one vacation feature to the next. An author we all enjoyed was Erma Bombeck. Even my sons appreciated her wise advice and crazy humor. A few things I remember from her books were descriptions of her own attempt at managing a home and children. She was open about her doubts and failures of ac-complishing all the many things she needed to do, and she compared herself to a neighbor who “waxed her driveway every morning.” As I read her books and her newspaper humor columns, I felt like I was in a support group helping me realize that it was OK not to achieve perfection in my own home management. It was a special treat to savor her writing.Another quote I remember was something to the effect of “depending on my mood, 80-90 percent of the people in the world could be declared legally dead.” I have some-times found this to be true. In discussing lost items when laundering, she said that she was going to start a New York Sock Exchange where people could bring single socks to-gether and perhaps swap to make pairs.In addition to me remembering her advice, I found that my son remembered one of her quotes many years later. It was necessary for him to get braces for his teeth. He and I went to one orthodontist for a free consultation. In the waiting room, there were several plants that looked like they’d not be watered for months. My son looked at me and then at the plants and then slowly shook his head. He was remembering one of Erma’s admonitions. “Never trust a doctor who lets office plants die.” When we were called into the examining room, sure enough, we did not like or trust that doctor. A few weeks later, we found an-other orthodontist who was wonderful. Research tells me that this author wrote 15 books, most of which became bestsellers. Her humor column was in newspapers from 1965-1996. The titles of the books were enough to make you want to read them. For example, “When You Look Like Your Passport Photo, It’s Time to Go Home”; “The Grass is Always Greener over the Septic Tank”; “The Family that Plays Together Gets on Each Oth-er’s Nerves”; and “Aunt Erma’s Cope Book, How to Get from Monday to Friday in Twelve Days.” She also wrote serious books. “I Want to Grow Hair, I Want to Grow Up, I Want to Go to Boise” is a book about children with cancer. She had personal experience with this and wanted to describe the hopes and dreams of young people who were battling bad situations. I think we need some humor right now to help us through challenges. Maybe you want to find one of these books and share the laughter and wisdom. GoldenrodBy Julie Terry CartnerAt his usual spot near the local deli, Steven was sur-prised when he saw two policemen grimly approaching him. He continued playing his flute, his case open, hoping for donations. As always, he wore his fatigue jacket, jeans, and black toboggan. When the policemen stopped in front of him, he slowly lowered the instrument and looked up at them in question.“Steven, we need to bring you in for questioning. Will you come with us, or do we need to cuff you?” asked the older policeman.“What’s this about?” asked Steven, rising to his feet. “You fellas know me; you see me here every day.” Then answering the question, he responded, “I’ll go with you.”The three walked down the sidewalk to the police sta-tion then entered a conference room. The usual questions followed. Where were you last night? Did anyone see you? Do you have any proof of where you were?A homeless man, Steven had little to defend himself. He slept in a tent in the nearby woods, and nobody was around him. Finally, the police told him that a house near those woods had been robbed, and a witness had described Ste-ven as the one leaving the house, right down to the jacket, jeans, and toboggan. A line up came next, and the witness again identified him as the robber.Fortunately for Steven, a local lawyer agreed to take his case. When the case came to trial, the lawyer brought two plants into the courtroom. Presenting them to the jury, he said: “Before you I have goldenrod and ragweed.” When he asked the jury to determine which was which, some guessed correctly, others incorrectly, and all admitted they didn’t know. He then continued, “They look similar, but they are very different. This one,” indicating the goldenrod, “is often blamed for allergy symptoms. People destroy it, saying it makes their eyes itch and noses run. But the truth is, goldenrod is an herb, and it doesn’t cause allergy issues. Quite the opposite, in fact. Goldenrod has many uses. It’s an amazing dye, and considered a good luck charm, but most importantly, it has many medicinal uses. The leaves, boiled and made into a tea or poultice, can help with in-flammation, urinary tract infections, wound care, eczema, arthritis, ulcers, and lung and kidney problems. German doctors have used it as a treatment for kidney stones and staunching blood. I could go on, but you get the idea.”“Ragweed,” he added, pointing to the other plant, “causes itchy and watery eyes, sneezing and stuffy noses, and other allergic reactions.“They look similar, but they are not the same. “Similarly, we have Steven here, whose only guilt is bad luck. Did you know he is a decorated war hero? Did you know he was married and has two children? His wife divorced him while he was deployed and took the chil-dren with her. He spent his savings fighting her for joint custody, but, because he suffers from PTSD, he only gets limited, supervised visitation. He has trouble holding a job, and any money he makes goes to his children, so he’s homeless. Harmless, yet homeless. Like goldenrod, he was blamed for something for which he is blameless. I challenge you, therefore, to look beyond the impression of his appearance to the man. Sniff the ragweed and sniff the goldenrod. Only one will make you sneeze. Look at the man behind the raggedy clothes and see the war hero, the father who’s doing the best he can. Ladies and Gentlemen, I ask you to appreciate the goldenrod, and blame the rag-weed. Thank you.”A second lineup with all the men dressed like Steven was ordered, and the witness could not identify Steven. Subsequently, Steven was acquitted.According to legend, two young girls wanted to stay together forever. One had beautiful, golden hair. The other had lovely blue-violet eyes. They asked an old, magical woman to help them. She gave them each a corn cake and sent them away. The girls were never seen again, but wher-ever they wandered, goldenrod and purple asters sprang from their footsteps. [Kanuckel, Amber. “Sneezing? Don’t Blame Goldenrod.” Farmers Almanac. 24 August 2022] Davie Center for Vio-lence Prevention (DCVP) is involved with a number of events during October as part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM). Every October is set aside to build awareness for re-sources in the county, but also pay respect to the vic-tims of violence.“Unfortunately, nearly everyone knows someone who has been a victim, or impacted by domestic or sexual violence,” said Bran-di Patti, assistant director. “Statistics show that one in three women, and one in four men have experienced violence by an intimate partner. “As an organization, we want to stay front and cen-ter for individuals who need our help and Domestic Vi-olence Awareness Month allows us to spread our mes-sage throughout the com-munity.” • A gift card drive will be promoted, encouraging community members to do-nate gift cards from local businesses and restaurants. Monetary gift cards allow victims to purchase neces-sities that allow them to es-cape their attacker. DCVP requests that cards be pur-chased for places such as Sheetz, Walmart and local grocery stores and restau-rants.

Continued From Page 1until Sunday afternoon, when the boil water notice was lifted. There were no contaminants.Gamble said his con-cern is that some residents apparently never got the message. Although there were no contaminants ever found in the water, he won-dered how to better send notifications so that all cus-tomers know the situation.“The town exists to de-liver reliable services and provide transparency when we could have done a bet-ter job,” he said. “The town is considering ways ensure the maximum amount of coverage for community alerts like this in the fu-ture.”But they will need the help of its customers, who need to provide a reliable source to receive informa-tion.“The Hyper-Reach sys-tem is an incredible tool that helps us quickly get information to the commu-nity,” Gamble said. “But it is only as good as the in-formation in the database. All land lines are automat-ically included, but many people use cellular phones as their primary means of contact now. Customers have to sign up to get alerts on VOIP phone lines, cell phones, text messaging and emails.”Gamble plans to send information on how to sign up for Hyper-Reach to every town water-sew-er customer in the coming weeks. Customers can sign up using any street address in Davie County by calling or texting “Alert” to (336) 477-2478 or by going to the website http://hyper-reach.com/ncdaviesignup.html (English) or https://bit.ly/3xs0Ifl (Spanish). Tech-savvy residents can get Hyper-Reach alerts via Alexa-enabled smart speakers by saying “Al-exa, enable Hyper-Reach” and following instructions. Town staff will be available Monday-Friday 8 a.m.-5 p.m. to assist any customer without computer access or who needs assistance en-rolling in Hyper-Reach.Gamble says that many people asked why Mocks-ville did not send out a countywide notice. He said the boil water notice only applied to the 3,000 Town of Mocksville water cus-tomers and sending out a countywide notice would have created more confu-sion. “We want to be as pre-cise as possible when pro-viding the community in-formation and do not want to alarm anyone not im-pacted by an incident.”, He went on to say he will talk this week with other Da-vie agencies to determine when it makes sense to re-quest assistance in getting the word out for Mocks-ville-centered incidents. Gamble also thanked the public works crew who la-bored through Friday night to restore water service and apologized to customers who did not receive the no-tice. “If there is a silver lining to this incident, it is that we know a weakness in the no-tification system that, with the help of our community, we can improve through enrolling everyone in Hy-per-Reach,” he said.Those who registered for updates with Ever-bridge, the old Davie Coun-ty notification system, are asked to re-register with Hyper-Reach as some cus-tomer information may not have been transferred suc-cessfully, Gamble said.

It's my favorite season. A favorite childhood recollection is the arrival of the county fair. I anticipated the event with the same eagerness and enthusiasm a child looks forward to a holiday. I slip into my oldest, faded blue jeans and scuffed leather boots, topping the outfit with a worn cowboy hat. My ex-citement builds – I can hardly wait to walk down the mid-way and take in the earthy smells of livestock. Later, I'll enjoy those delicate tastes – a foot long corn dog, cotton candy, caramel apple, or other food reserved only for those with more discriminating palates. My friends look at me in utter bewilderment when I tell them I'm excited about the fair. It was a great revelation when I realized everyone didn’t look forward to it like I did. As I was getting ready to leave, I thought, if only friends could see me now – they'd hardly recog-nize me. Some don't understand fair language, known as carney talk, that one must understand to appreciate the experience. Most folks would think floss has some-thing to do with oral hygiene, but it means cotton candy at the fair. A portable concession stand made from rough lumber and canvas is called a stick joint. I can't imag-ine what that term would cause wild imaginations to conjure up. I guess all folks really need to know is to steer clear of flat stores – games set up to cheat you as quickly as possible. The history of the Carolina Classic Fair in Winston Salem is a little sketchy. Historians say it was created in the fall of 1882 as community leaders became interested in launching new agricultural exhibits to help enhance the farming image of the county. The fair be-came dedicated to the growing (display) of grains, particu-larly wheat – most unusual for a town interested in tobacco growth. The first fair was held in the Brown Warehouse, located at Main and Fifth streets, where Reynolds Plaza is now. Later, as the fair expanded, farmers who raised cattle saw opportunities. The livestock exhibit became one of the first cattle fairs in North Carolina. The fair also included the state's largest exhibition for tobacco quality. In 1987, the Tobacco Fair was described as the "greatest, grandest, and most glorious epoch" in the history of Winston-Salem. The event was strengthened by the support of prominent local families such as the Hanes, Galloways, Norfleets, Reynolds, and Shaffners. In the early 1950s, Charles Bab-cock donated property for new fairgrounds, and the loca-tion was moved to its current site. Later, the old name was changed for a new, more regional one – the Dixie Classic – and now called the Carolina Classic Fair. Since 1963, James E. Strates shows have worked for the fair. At one time, there were more than 75 rides and shows. Strates is the only carnival that traveled by its own railroad company. Today the Carolina Classic is a leader among the state's agricultural fairs. It draws crowds from more than 20 counties in North Carolina and more from Virginia. My favorite things are still the same: I love fair foods – and all the smells that make one's mouth water. I enjoy seeing premium blue ribbon winners of food and produce contests and educational exhibits. Special attractions such as demolition derby, stunt shows, and tractor pulls are ex-citing. I especially like the livestock exposition with whiffs of pure farm scents. Mostly, I enjoy the games, side shows, and thrill of the rides. Nothing is more exciting than being on the top of the Ferris wheel at night. From here, thou-sands of dazzling multi-colors light up the midway. And you get a grand view of downtown Winston-Salem.After we returned home from the big event, my grandson asked me if we could go back. I smile as I realize this will be another tradition for him as it has been for me. The fair will be over tomorrow and I'll resume my day-to-day dress. I'm grateful for the ability to love and enjoy the simplest pleasures. Let’s make it a priority to stay in touch with the kid in each of us and not let the old creep in. My fair favorites are always the same – there are dif-fering recipes for each. But one thing's always the same – plain ol’ deliciousness in every bite. Enjoy the goodies.

Fair brings memories of favorite foods DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Oct. 13, 2022 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Thanks to a monster game from Devin Hernandez, South Davie’s soccer team pulled out a heart-pounding thriller in double overtime, 3-2, against visiting Ellis on Oct. 4. After scoring one goal in three seasons - his first middle-school goal came the day before against Thomasville - Hernandez deliv-ered an outrageous coming-out party, scoring all three South goals. “He’s the hardest working kid,” South coach Russell Hilton said. “He always has a great attitude. He’s always at practice. It’s been coming for the past three years.”Hernandez’s breakthrough was a header in a 5-1 loss to Thomas-ville on Oct. 3. Andy Longares got the assist. “(The header) was like some-thing you see on the World Cup,” Hilton said. “It was an absolutely Hernandez the hero in double overtime win amazing header.”The next day against Ellis, Hernandez opened the scoring off a corner kick by Longares. He scored again to make it 2-0. “We dominated the first half,” Hilton said. “That was the best we’ve played offensively. We had the ball on their half 90 percent of the time. We had chance after chance after chance. But they took control (in the second half).”Yep, the Jaguars refused to accept defeat. Santi Maganda got them on the board before the first half ended. With seven minutes remaining in regulation, Brandon Martinez tied it at 2-2. “We controlled the entire sec-ond half,” Ellis coach Susan Jones said. “We dominated possession.”With five minutes to go, South fouled Ellis in the box. That meant a penalty kick for the potent Ma-ganda, who exploded for four goals in last year’s 4-3 overtime win over South. The Tigers’ hopes rested on the shoulders of sev-enth-grade goalie William Martin, who was ready for his moment. “William saved the penalty shot,” Hilton said. “It was pressure time right there. William made the best save he’s made in two years. I mean he absolutely robbed (Ma-ganda). It’s pretty much a 50-50 chance. You can see if they’re lean-ing one way or looking one way, but it’s really just a guessing game. William picked left, Santiago shot it left and William dove perfectly and grabbed it. Without him mak-ing that save, we probably lose 3-2. William was pumped up after that. He immediately hollered and did a fist pump. That’s really what sparked us (the rest of the way).”Neither team scored in the first five-minute overtime. In the second OT, Hernandez finished his indescribable day to give him the hat trick. “He’s going to run 3-5 miles a game because he plays so hard - back and forth, playing defense and offense,” Hilton said. “He hustles for 60 minutes straight. His confidence is through the roof right now. All the stuff we’ve taught him, he finally put it all together and just exploded. If anyone de-served to have a game like that, it was Devin. (When he hit the game-winner), we all jumped off the bench and grabbed him. We dumped water on him.”Longares was a key factor as the Tigers (2-8) stopped the bleed-ing after five consecutive losses. “He probably played his best game in two years at forward,” Hilton said. “He’s a great ball handler and he moves the ball up the field. He was finding his team-mates and taking shots.”South defenders Hamza Hei-kal, Javier Barrera, Ben Sheek, Jean Aliva and Jose Roque-Ibar-ra deserve considerable credit. Please See Hero - Page B8 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record When Davie’s JV football team lost a fumble at the Mt. Tabor 2 in the fourth quarter, its season was on the verge of crumbling. The War Eagles had lost two in a row and things looked daunting as Tabor held an 18-14 lead after recovering the fumble. But in a wild finish, receiver Ethan Driver and linebacker Josi-ah Johnson saved the day as Davie escaped 20-18 at Tabor on Oct. 6. “That was a must-win game for us,” coach Perry Long said. “It was a big win to get a little momentum,” offensive coordina-tor Matt Gould said. “We were fighting with East Forsyth and a few plays here or there, we win that one. (The Reagan) game was a downer, so it was good to get back on the upswing.”The War Eagles faced a 12-0 deficit before the dynamic Leon Bradshaw gave them new life with a 55-yard punt return for a touchdown. “They had two gunners coming at him, and he went right between the two gunners,” coach Tim De-vericks said. “Leon went down the left side, he made one cut back toward the middle of the field and that was it. They punted to him again, but they made sure it had a lot of hang time. So he pretty much had to fair catch punts the rest of the night.”After playing in Bradshaw’s shadow for most of the season, Driver emerged as the star of the game. The freshman hauled in a 32-yard touchdown pass from Jamarius Pelote to tie the game at 12. On the two-point play, Pelote hit Bradshaw with a 7-yard slant as Davie grabbed a 14-12 halftime lead. “Ethan’s one of our best receiv-ers,” Gould said. “We tried to get him involved and he’s had some big plays. We’d like to get him the ball more, but the defense and other stuff have prevented us from getting it to him more this year. He had two huge catches.”The Spartans regained the lead at 18-14, and they caught a huge break when Davie fumbled on the doorstep of the end zone. “We drove it all the way down to the 2 and fumbled,” Gould said. But the defense and special teams kept Davie’s hopes alive. After the defense got a three-and-out, Davie partially blocked the punt - the second block of the night - to give the visitors possession at the Tabor 20 with four minutes remaining. Driver’s catch lifts JVs Please See Lifts - Page B5 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Davie football team’s defense gave the homecoming fans some good moments and the offense found success in the second half. But there’s a clear reason why the War Eagles have suffered three straight losses: They have faced three behemoths in East Forsyth (56-21), Reagan (41-21) and Mt. Tabor. While those three are well-oiled machines, Davie is somewhere between pouring the foundation and framing the house. “Obviously we’re not getting the results that everyone wants - everybody wants to win - but it’s a building process,” coach Tim Devericks said after Friday’s 34-25 loss to Tabor (6-1 overall, 3-1 Central Piedmont Conference). “We’ve got to build Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday towards that goal, and they did a good job of that this week. That was unbe-lievable fight in our kids. Down two scores, we never gave up. The defense came up with some big stops and the offense got some momentum going. I’m super proud of our guys.”Tabor, which opened the season by handing tradition-rich Rich-mond County its worst loss ever (45-6), was a heavy favorite, but it was Davie (2-5, 1-3) that scored the first points. And they came on a lightning-quick return by Willie Purvis, who took the opening kick-off 90 yards by sprinting through a huge lane of empty green grass up the middle. Ten seconds into the game, it was 7-0. “Willie’s got dynamic speed and playmaking ability,” Dever-icks said of the senior cornerback/kick returner. “But he has to rely on those other 10 guys to get their blocks. They did a phenomenal job; I don’t think he got touched. It was a great way to get the game started.”“Bryan Argueta’s block really Tabor adds to War Eagle skid opened up the hole,” Purvis said. “I feel like we’re one of the best special teams in the conference. With the atmosphere (for home-coming), it felt amazing, and I hope it happens again.”Davie’s defense came out strong. Linebacker Justin Hayes stopped a quarterback draw for no gain. Purvis and Jerred Alexander tackled the running back well short of the marker on third down to force a punt on Tabor’s first possession. It was third-and-6 on Tabor’s second offensive series. Mason Shermer had the tackle on a 3-yard run. Tabor went for it on fourth-and-3 from the Davie 35, and freshman cornerback Gavin Reese intercepted a pass at the Davie 20. “Wonderful job of listening all week in practice of when his receiver went shallow to not chase him,” Devericks said. “Just get some depth because the running back was coming out of the back-field, and Gavin was right where he needed to be.”Reese’s pick was the sixth and final pass for Tabor’s starting QB, senior Semaj Reaves Smith. Coach Tiesuan Brown moved sophomore Shamarius Peterkin from receiver to QB, and he changed everything. At 6-2 and 172 pounds, he’s a freak of an athlete. He looks like a young Hendon Hooker, who played for Dudley, led the Panthers to two wins over the 12-2 War Eagles in 2016 and now stars for Tennessee. Despite not attempting a pass in the first six games, S. Peterkin per-formed with lethal precision as he carved up Davie with his arm and his legs. His impact began when he fielded Palmer Williams’ 49-yard punt with Davie still clinging to the 7-0 lead. He returned it 38 yards to the Davie 34. He picked up 8 and 12 yards on back-to-back keepers before Giovanni Caesar took care of the final 14 yards. Tabor went for two, but Brandon Wood sacked Peterkin to preserve a 7-6 lead. But the Spartans simply dom-inated the final 13:20 of the first half, scoring on three straight possessions to build a 20-7 half-time lead. During that stretch, they didn’t even face third down, a span of 22 plays. “(S. Peterkin’s) a dynamic play-maker,” Devericks said. “When they went that route, they just snapped it to another playmaker.”Even though the wounded War Eagles were probably having flashbacks to East Forsyth/Reagan during the second quarter, they gave their fans good moments in the second half. Early in the third quarter, Sher-mer and Landon Barber swarmed S. Peterkin for a 1-yard gain on the edge. Running back Zion Thomp-son caught a pass but only gained 2 yards as he was met by Ethan Sil-vey. S. Peterkin had a minimal gain when he was stopped by Shermer/Matty Warner. S. Peterkin took off on third-and-5, but only gained 2 yards because of a Warner tackle. On fourth-and-3 from the Davie 8, the 13th play of the drive, Warner planted Caesar 2 yards short. “We were doing some things where they couldn’t block us all,” Devericks said. After its offense was punchless in the first half, Davie put together Please See Skid - Page B5 Junior quarterback Ty Miller throws on the run in the homecoming game against Mt.

Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.The 5-County Trap Loan Program will be available in Anson, Davie, Haywood, Montgomery and Randolph counties. It provides high-tech corral traps that can be borrowed for up to a month by landowners who have feral swine problems. The traps will be available through August 2023.The traps include a re-mote trigger system that allows operators to monitor traps on their smartphones and close the gate remote-ly when a group of pigs is inside. Information about feral swine in North Carolina and applications for the trap loan program are avail-able at ncferalswine.org.“Because they repro-duce so quickly, protecting the land from feral swine isn’t really about how many you can remove, but rather how many you miss and are left to multiply,” said Falyn Owens, a mem-ber of the N.C. Feral Swine Task Force from the N.C. Wildlife Resources Com- mission. “True success re-quires removing the entire group of pigs, which is ex-actly what these traps are designed to do.”Feral pigs can do plen-ty of damage to farms and wildlife habitat through rooting and competition for food. According to the commission, they can be found across the state. They are a blend of Eurasian wild boar and domestic pigs, and they can produce multiple litters per year of a dozen piglets each. Sport hunting has had little effect on feral swine populations, which are on the increase across North Carolina.No fall striper season in Northeast NCNorth Carolina fisher-men are again being asked to give up something to help the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries react to bad news about one of the state’s most-popular fisher-ies.The DMF announced in late September that it wasn’t going to the fall rec- reational season for striped bass in the Albemarle Sound Management Area – because their original har-vest numbers were off.DMF reviewed its 2021 stock assessment and de-cided that too many fish had been caught last year, so it was forced to reduce this year’s allowable catch – and that move eliminated the recreational season in the Albemarle Sound and Roanoke River manage-ment areas.A 2021 stock review shows that stripers are de-clining because of poor reproduction over the past handful of years after the fishery was one of North Carolina’s real shining lights in the early 2000s – when catches during the spring spawning run in the river often produced 100-fish days for anglers. DMF said stripers are being over-fished.DMF said because so many stripers were caught in 2021, the Total Allow-able Landings for stripers in 2022 was changed to 15,726 pounds, equally di-vided between recreational and commercial fishermen. DMF surveys indicate that about 35,000 pounds have already been harvested in 2002, so there will be no fall season.UNCC angler qualifiesfor Bassmaster ClassicAnother bass fisherman from North Carolina will compete in the 2023 Bass-master Classic.Louis Monetti, a mem-ber of UNC Charlotte’s bass fishing team, won the Bassmaster College Clas-sic Bracket on Monday on South Carolina’s Lake Greenwood, earning a spot.Monetti caught 8 pounds, 13 ounces, to de-feat Seth Slanker of Flori-da Gateway College, who came up with 7-11.Monetti will fish with some of the world’s best pro fishermen in the Clas-sic, scheduled for March 24-26 on the Tennessee River out of Knoxville.

Moments later, Pelote threw an apparent TD to Driver, but Driver was flagged for offensive pass interference. “In the second half, it got crazy,” Gould said. “It was a rollercoaster,” Long said. After the penalty, Pelote found Bradshaw for 15 yards to the Tabor 10. Two plays later, Pelote threw to the left side of the end zone to Driver, who made a game-winning TD catch that was beyond amazing. “It was a one-handed catch,” Gould said. “It was one of the best catches I’ve ever seen on JV.

On third-and-5 from the Tabor 10, Ty Miller dumped a pass to a wide-open Markel Summers as Davie cut Tabor’s lead to 20-13. Tabor answered immedi-ately, with Thompson turn-ing the corner and dashing 64 yards to the end zone to restore Tabor’s lead to 27-13. But Davie did not give up, forcing back-to-back Tabor punts. Barber and Warner sacked S. Peterkin 6 yards back, and moments later, receiver Brodie Smith resuscitated Davie’s come-back hopes.“It took us a little bit to adjust (to S. Peterkin),” Devericks said. “We made some good halftime ad-justments and we got some stops.” On fourth-and-3 from the Davie 40, Miller connected with Smith near the Davie sideline.

(27-19) with 6:03 to play. “We are so close,” De-vericks said. “One play here or there and this is a different game. We’re just so close.”“It was a great team effort,” Purvis said. “We didn’t give up at all.”Unfortunately for Davie, Tabor only needed eight plays to cover 80 yards, scoring the insurance TD with 2:24 left. But wait. Davie went 63 yards in 69 seconds to make things interesting again. Miller hit 5 of 7 passes on the drive, including his second TD toss to Smith. Down by nine with 1:08 to go, Davie went for two. The pass fell incomplete and that was all she wrote. But Devericks and the War Eagles came away hopeful as they turn their attention to archrival West Forsyth. Tabor completely shut down Summers’ rushing attempts, but he still had a productive game with nine catches for 86 yards. “Markel is a playmaker with the ball anywhere in his hands,” Devericks said. “When he tried to run the ball, they were loading the box, so we had to find dif-ferent ways to get him the ball.”Smith’s eight receptions for 116 yards was another illustration of what he’s all about. “He had one (defender) who was almost on him as soon as he caught the ball (on the 60-yard TD), and he broke that tackle,” Dever-icks said. “For the next guy, he put his foot in the ground, cut inside and he was off to the races. He’s another kid who’s going to give you everything he’s got.”Hayes, the senior line-backer and No. 1 tackler for the season, earned high praise. “Extreme effort,” De-vericks said. “He cares so much. I’m super proud of that guy. He’s matured so much in handling the emo-tions of the game. You never question his effort. If he can get to it, he’s going to go 110 miles an hour. I think he’s the heartbeat (of the de-fense). He sets the standard for our defense.”Notes: Tabor was penal-ized 17 times for 147 yards. ... Thompson, a sophomore, and Caesar racked up 170 and 125 rushing yards, re-spectively. S. Peterkin went 9 of 11 passing for 109 yards, and he added 75 rushing yards. His older brother, Jamarien Peterkin, is a beast at receiver. He had seven catches for 93 yards. ... Williams had a solid night, averaging 42 yards on five punts and sending all four kickoffs into the end zone. ... Tabor’s only loss was to 7-0 East Forsyth. ... Thompson’s 64-yard TD was the longest run Davie has allowed this season. ... Purvis’ kickoff return was just the sixth such TD for Davie in 18 years. Last year Za’haree Maddox had an 85-yard return in a 55-0 win over Parkland. Devon Parks had a 97-yarder in a 49-7 win at Lexington in 2012. Denzel Redmon had a 95-yarder in a 45-32 loss at West Rowan in 2011. Perry James had an 80-yarder in a 36-7 win at East Rowan in 2006. And Raeshon McNeil had a 92-yarder in a 60-0 home win over Mooresville in 2005. ... Davie and West Forsyth (2-5, 2-2) will meet in Clemmons Friday at 7 p.m. The Titans started 0-4 against stiff competition before winning two in a row. Their last game was a hard-fought loss to Reagan. Their scores: 37-9 loss to A.C.

Davie was ahead 20-18, but there was one problem: 3:15 remained on the clock. Tabor moved all the way to the Davie 15 as it threatened to steal it back. Johnson preserved the win by inter-cepting a pass. After losing 12-7 to East Forsyth and 56-13 to Rea-gan, there were multiple rea-sons for Davie (4-3 overall, 2-2 Central Piedmont Con-ference) to savor this one. “The defense played re-ally, really well,” Devericks said. “It was probably the best they’ve played as a unit this season. These guys are learning we can compete when we execute the right way. We executed better on both sides of the ball.”Freshman linebacker Luke Wayne was another hero, getting an interception and a fumble recovery. “He dropped back and picked off a slant pass,” Devericks said. “They’d been running two backs all night with heavy downhill run action towards us. (Their quarterback) raised up to throw and Luke got in his drop and he was right in the window. He did a good job reading his keys and reading pass.”Sophomore defensive end Billy Krause only added to his impressive resume, and freshman d-lineman Lane Griffin made a high-light-reel play. “Billy’s got a motor,” De-vericks said. “He’s ready to work every day. He doesn’t take any reps off. He wasn’t satisfied after the game. He was like: ‘I had a bad game.’ I said: ‘No man, you had a really good game.’ Some-times kids don’t see their hard work pay off because they don’t get all the tackles, but teams see where they can run and they adjust to who’s causing the problems. “Lane had a great hit. They left him unblocked to run counter trey the other way, and Lane came through there and put a good lick on the running back.”Notes: Tabor (4-2, 2-2 CPC) won 22-15 over Da-vie’s next opponent, West Forsyth. ... Archer Richard-son and Skylar Whittington rushed for 50 and 41 yards, respectively. Whittington had 14- and 26-yard gains among his four carries. ... Davie almost beat itself. “We fumbled twice inside the 20,” Gould said. ... As-sistant coach Todd Bumgar-ner said safety Jakob Cable and Landon Waller had good games on defense.

B8 ‑ DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Oct. 13, 2022 Continued From Page B1Roque-Ibarra and Barrera put an effective double-team Maganda down the stretch. “(Maganda) is a beast,” Hilton said. “Before over-time, I got my five defenders together and I got on them. I said: ‘Do not let No. 10 touch the ball.’ He did not touch the ball at all in over-time. I had two guys in his face. That was our only chance to win. If (Maganda) got it, he was going to beat us. I said: ‘We’re not letting what happened last year happen again.’ Our defense and goalie were lights out.”It’s a shame somebody had to lose this cliffhang-er. Seager Brooks, Austin Eggers and Carlos Maganda helped Ellis, which lost 2-0 Hero ... The Ellis football team kept its foot on the gas at Forbush on Oct. 5, winning 34-0 behind touchdowns from five different players. Braxton Bowling, Brandon Forrest, Landon Hughes, Elijah Chaffin and Cannon Smith took turns By Brian PittsDavie Enterprise Record The North Davie volley-ball team beat North Caro-lina Leadership Academy and Ellis last week to push its record to 8-4. Who’d have thunk it back on Sept. 13, when the Wildcats were 1-4? “This has been a great group to coach,” coach Trish King said. “We changed our rotation after the first four matches and it has made a big difference. These girls have formed a tight bond and their chemistry is fan-tastic. It’s the perfect time to be peaking.”A little over a month after losing to NCLA in three sets, the Wildcats won 2-1 in Kernersville on Oct. 4. “We have really im-proved during the season,” King said. “I’m excited to see what’s in store for the next three weeks.”Two days later against visiting Ellis (6-4), the Wild-cats, who lost in two sets to Ellis on Sept. 6, delivered another redeeming perfor-mance. They beat the Jag-uars 2-1 for their seventh straight win. “It was an intense match,” King said. North’s setters are Bella Bailey and Caroline Mitch-ell. The outside hitters are Hayden Gavura and Maddie Ratledge. The middle hitters are Olivia Shue, Alyssa Hin-son and Chesney Keaton. Avery Cuthrell plays libero and Carington Pitcher is a defensive specialist. “They all play pret-ty equally,” King said. “Hayden and Olivia have been on fire at the net. Bella has been a consistent server and has really improved as a setter and defender. Her digs and reaction time at the net have kept us in a lot of matches. Maddie has been a great leader. Avery has also been crucial as a passer on the back row. I am able to count on her to get the ball to the setter.”•••North is not the only red-hot team in the county. South Davie (9-2) has a five-match winning streak after pulling out a pair of three-set battles last week. The Tigers won at home over Ellis on Oct. 4. Two days later, they won at home against Wesleyan Chris-tian Academy, flipping the script from Sept. 6, when the Trojans topped South in three sets. Ellis football team breezes past Forbush scoring TDs as the Jag-uars stayed perfect at 5-0. Hughes’ score was a pass from Forrest. Chaffin (12 tackles) and J’seire Arnold continued to excel on defense. Braylon Arnold contributed to a unit that has only allowed 20 points all season. “Forbush was three-and-out a lot,” assistant coach Kendall Chaffin said. South Davie ripped apart visiting Millenium Charter, 48-0, on Oct. 5. The Tigers improved to 2-3. North volleyball team wins seventh straight to South on Sept. 19, push the Tigers to the limit. “That was as exciting as a middle school soccer game can be,” Hilton said. “It was intense.”“It was a tough loss, but I am very proud of how they fought back,” Jones said. “Seager played great defense. He seems to always be in the right place and really making an impact. Austin and Carlos always give 110 percent. They are our smallest players but always our fiercest players.”NCLA 2, ND 1After outscoring its first nine opponents by a com-bined score of 50-13, North Davie’s bubble burst at North Carolina Leadership Academy on Oct. 4. It was a wild swing from the first meeting on Sept. 1, when North dealt the Fal-cons a 9-1 thrashing. “We got flatter and flatter as the game went on,” coach Daniel Gamble said. “They just wanted it more.”Kellan Wiles gave North a 1-0 lead in the first 45 seconds. He was assisted by Hector Rodriguez. The Fal-cons tied it before halftime. Despite the tough loss, North (9-1 overall) re-mained in first place in the conference at 8-1. NCLA is second at 6-1-1. North was 4-0 in one-goal games be-fore the trip to Kernersville. NCLA 5, Ellis 0Ellis struggled on both ends of the field at NCLA on Oct. 7, suffering its fifth straight loss. “The boys played flat,” Jones said after Ellis fell to 2-7. “I think the loss (to South) that could have been ours broke the spirit of them.” Losing weight is about more than just dieting.

Forsyth at 5:30/7South Davie football at North Davie at 4:30 The Davie cross country team made its annual trip to Hagan Stone Park in Guil-ford County on Oct. 7 for the Hagan Stone Classic. Originally scheduled for Oct. 1, the meet was postponed due to Hurricane Ian. The postponement caused the field to be pared down from the usual 45 teams to 23. And because the meet took place Hill paces cross country team at Hagan Stone on a Friday afternoon, the Davie team made an unusual decision to run all 27 of its competing athletes in the coed JV race.“The championship race was scheduled for 3:30, but due to academic commit-ments we were among a few teams that could not arrive in time for the varsity race,” said coach Rob Raisbeck. “After consultation with the meet director, we were among a handful of teams that just ran the JV race. Our goal in all of these preseason invitationals is to just get in the work and help us prepare for the championship meets later in October. I think we accomplished that.”The championship race featured two of the top eight boys teams in the state as Christ School edged Cary Academy for the title. For-syth Country Day finished third. “If you slide our times into that race, we would have been fourth in the team standings, which would have been a good result for us,” said Raisbeck. “Of our 27 athletes, we had 16 of them run new personal record (PR) times, which tells us we are on schedule to run well at the conference meet next week.”Sophomore Tyler Hill became the second Davie runner this season to break the 17:00 barrier as his time of 16:59 was a new PR by 13 seconds. “There was a timing is-sue and we clocked all of our runners several seconds faster than the official time, so I think Tyler was probably 16:55,” said Raisbeck. Thomas Essic crossed the line in 17:12 for a four-sec-ond PR. Owen Sulecki (17:38) and Ethan Lakey (17:50) were the next Davie finishers as the War Eagles claimed the top four places in the race and six of the top seven. Logan Zuleger contin-ued his rapid improvement as he finished in 18:55 for a 22-second PR. Will Allard’s time of 18:56 was a huge improvement of 49 seconds off of his previous best effort. “Jeff (Jones) and I were really happy for Will,” said Raisbeck. “He has been training really hard and had just been on this plateau for the last year, but he really popped one today.”Jackson Sulecki’s 28-sec-ond PR of 19:37 marked his first time under 20:00. Brayden Kistner (20:05) and Aric Boles (20:13) were the next Davie finishers. Chris Devicente had a 38-sec-ond PR to finish in 20:30 and edged out his sopho-more classmate, Hayden Key, whose time of 20:40 was a 14-second PR. They were followed by Caswell Moore (21:16), Slade Keaton (20-second PR of 21:16), Wade Bomar (22:12), Jake Hannah (52-second PR of 22:37), Adam Brown (22:43), Jackson Shook (22:53) and Jacob Patton (17-second PR of 26:26).Lexi Marion and Gracie Spicer were the top two fin-ishers in the girls race with times of 21:28 and 21:32, respectively. Spicer’s time was an 18-second PR. “Lexi and Gracie have been training really well this fall and keep getting better,” said Raisbeck. “We are excit-ed to see how fast they will go at the conference meet.” Riley McNeil was the third Davie finisher in 25:45. The next five Davie girls all had personal-best efforts. Emilia Marks’ time of 26:21 was a new PR by 1:50. Stel-la Frye crossed the line in 27:14, which was a 1:23 PR. Clara Phelps’ time of 27:15 was a new personal record by 56 seconds. Brianna Givens’ time of 29:13 shattered her previous best by 1:50, and Jordan Kistner knocked 1:51 off of her previous best time as she finished in 30:33. Reily York was just off of her personal best with a time of 33:21.Next up for the War Ea-gles is the CPC Champion-ships at Ivey Redmond Park in Kernersville on Oct. 19. “The CPC is loaded once again,” said Raisbeck. “We are a very young team but we won’t back down from anybody. I think the team is looking forward to the challenges ahead, and I am confident we will be ready to run fast.” BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT The BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT- An AFFORDABLE marketing choice!
