Davie County is one of 10 communities across the coun-try to receive this award from the National Civic League this year. Touched by the turnout, the team expressed its appreciation for the welcome and the sup-port. “It was heartwarming to see the surprise welcome as we ap-proached the government cen-ter,” said Ken Gamble, Mocks-ville town manager. “I’ll never forget the looks of joy on the faces of our youth and adult team members.

Seeing how the young people came together with the adults of our community trying to reach a common goal is so encourag-ing. “Many of these young peo-ple didn't really know each other when we started this endeavor, but now they have made friendships that will last a lifetime. This trip has reas-sured us that Davie County is headed in the right direction with our youth programs, but With the western county seats complete, I contemplated an out and back loop in the northeastern part of the state, beginning on June 8. My first stop was Roxboro, earlier called Moccasin Gap and Roxburgh. The county seat of Person County was incorporated in 1855 and re-mains the only municipality in the county. The Person County Courthouse, built in 1930 in the center of down-town had a long line out the front door.Famous people from Roxboro include old-time baseball player, Enos “Country” Slaughter and World War I Medal of Honor winner Robert L. Blackwell. Blackwell got the award posthumously for volunteering to go for help after two others were killed doing so. Tristane told the author the Whoopie Pie and oatmeal cook- ies at the Strong Arm Bakery in Oxford would be the best he had ever eaten. She was right. - Photo by David Freeze Heading east to some major history Slaughter joined the St. Louis Cardinals in 1938 at age 22 and is enshrined in the National Baseball Hall of Fame.•Next was Oxford, seat of Granville County, once the home of Indian tribes with the Tuscarora most common. Samuel Benton, the area’s rep-resentative to the state assembly, bought 1,000 acres in 1761 and called his home Oxford. Benton gave an acre for the courthouse, but the town was not incorporated until 1816.Most notable resident John Penn was a landowner elected in 1775 to be a member of the Continental Congress.

Open me and I willBecome a new adventure. Hummingbirds and WildflowersBy Denise BellMother Nature gifts us with so many wonderful sur-prises. After much preparation during the earlier months of the year, gardeners as well as other observers are reap-ing the benefits of that work. Spring has delivered us the bouquets of summer, bringing us a plethora of beauty and new growth. I moved to NC in December 2021 and spent my first summer here cleaning up my yard which was overgrown and wild. It needed a summer of tender loving care and I joyfully put in the work. I trimmed, weeded and add-ed new gardens, preparing my palette in order to begin my landscape here. This spring I was rewarded when all the new growth from my previous years planting revealed itself. Yellowy daffodils were followed by gladiolus and iris. The lilac bush I brought from my previous home pre-sented me with a single purple bloom, the sweet smell letting me know that it made the trip just fine. My butter-fly bush is bustling with activity. Swallowtails, monarchs and moths flutter and dance from flower to flower. The red admiral butterfly bowing as the painted-lady butterfly probably not one of my smartest choices. However, that turned out to be the last time I saw my sister. Had I listened to reason and stayed home, I wouldn’t have that week of memories. I wouldn’t have the added link of experiences with my sister – late night chats, days of laughter, more unbreakable bonds to add to all our previous visits. Most importantly, I wouldn’t have been able to say, “I’m so glad I went,” rather than, “Oh, I should have gone.” I had grat-itude for going rather than regrets for staying home. I will be eternally grateful that I chose memories over regrets.Recently, my neighbor and friend lost her husband, and their children lost their father. Less than a month earlier, they had traveled across the country to visit her family and celebrate a nephew’s graduation. I’m sure the decision was difficult: they had to take the kids out of school right before the end of the year, he had to take days off from work, and she had to handle the challenges of traveling with young children. But they made the choice to go, and thus, spent a week making more memories. I have no doubt, she’ll never re-gret that decision. They had a bonus week. A week focused on family certainly outweighs the difficulties of travel; a week of family time rather than the regular nitty-gritty of juggling jobs, school, meals, and chores; a week of family time that is clearly irreplaceable.We never know when the morning good-bye is the last good-bye. We never know when the last kiss is the last kiss. We never know when our words will be our last words to someone we love. We are often reminded of this, and yet, so often, we still forget. In Act III of Our Town by Thornton Wilder, Emily tells her mother: “Oh, Mama, just look at me one minute as though you really saw me… just for a moment now we’re all together. Mama, just for a moment we’re happy. Let’s look at one another.” Then she asks the Stage Manager the agonizing question, “Does anyone ever realize life while they live it … every, every minute?” Of course, we can’t, but we can make more ef-fort to try. So, here’s the thing: Take the time. Make the time. Nobody ever regrets spending more time with the ones they love. Cottonwood TreesBy Marie CraigDirectly in front of my house at a short distance is a huge cottonwood tree. In May and June, white fluffies looking like snow blow from it. They are so light and del-icate and float on the breeze in an attempt to find a good nurturing home for the tiny seed inside so that another cot-tonwood tree can grow. That’s the poetic, sweet version of the situation. Alas, everybody doesn’t view it so positive-ly. It can cover the ground and your porch like snow and sneak in your house if you aren’t careful.The research version shows that they are called Eastern Cottonwood Trees, Populus deltoides. They are a mem-ber of the poplar family as the scientific name reminds us. They are a fast-growing tree, maybe five feet a year and can reach a height of 65 to 100 feet. Since there is rapid growth, the lumber from the tree is very soft. The bark has deep ridges with horizontal splits. The seeds can blow as far as five miles. Leaf stems are flat, so when the wind blows, there is more surface area for the breezes to hit. As a result, those leaves will tremble and be noisy when the leaves of other kinds of trees just barely move. I found this quote, “It looks like they’re being tickled by the wind.” There are male trees and female trees. The fluffy seeds are only on the female trees. The male trees produce only pollen. The twigs are very flexible. If you cut a branch To the editor:Thanks to Brian Pitts on his excellent coverage of Da-vie County’s own Caleb Martin’s performance in the Mi-ami Heat’s 7th game win over the Boston Celtics.Martin was outstanding with 26 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists & 3 steals as the Heat defeated Tatum and the Celt-ics for the Eastern Conference Championship.We are natives of Cooleemee and are so proud of Ca-leb’s performance. Several of the NBA analysts, including Charles Barkley and Shaquille O’Neal, commented that they thought Martin should have gotten the MVP Award – not taking anything away from the team leader, Jimmy Butler, who is awesome and scored 28 points in the game 7 win.I have followed the Martin Twins, Caleb & Cody, since they played for The Charlotte Hornets. I still follow the Hornets and I’m glad to learn that Cody is recovering from his leg injury. I know he is proud of his brother’s perfor-mance and in helping his team make it to the NBA finals. Facing the Western Conference Champion Denver Nug-gets was not an easy task and even though they came up short, we are all proud of Caleb and the Heat. The Heat lost game one of the Eastern Conference championship, but tied the series in game two. Martin hit a 3-pointer in the fourth and grabbed the final rebound at the buzzer for the win. I have always been a Steph Curry fan and followed him since his college days and now with the Golden State War-riors. I guess you could say to meet Steph in person is at the top of my bucket list.Now, to have two players from my hometown in the NBA has broadened my knowledge of the association. My enthusiasm has now created a great interest in the profes-sional game for my daughter, Toni, who loves watching our favorite NBA teams. Both of my daughters, Traci & Toni, and myself have always been huge fans of the ACC and NCAA basketball and football games. (Tarheels born & bred)We were excited to follow Caleb in the NBA finals. An 8-seed making it to the finals was certainly unexpected and our hometown player helped to make it happen.Even though the series didn’t end in our favor, the Denver Nuggets and their team Leader, Jokic, have been scorched”by the Miami Heat……and Toni, Traci and I are proud of Caleb Martin, our winner.Marlene C. Benson, North Myrtle Beach, SC Caleb Martin coverage excellent crosses his path. My daughter has a wildflower garden which is bursting with blooms. The garden spreads across the entire front of the house. What a joyous sight it is as I drive down the long, winding driveway and the wonderful colors be-gin to be revealed. Bachelor buttons towering throughout, scattering of every color of the rainbow. Vibrant pinks and magenta, lilac and purple, brilliant blues. Every one of them reaches upward to become the tallest in the patch. The white and purple candytuft are scattered among the poppies and anemones. The plum crimson clover brings a song to my head. All the flourishing beauty has brought the humming-birds to my new home. In Michigan I had just one or two hummingbirds that would visit me in my suburban back-yard oasis. They would fly around the yard for a few min-utes. Pausing for a moment to dine Al Fresco on the vines and canna flowers. I had only one feeder and would sit on my back porch, enjoying my gardens hoping for a hum-mingbird siting. I had one or two “regulars”, but their vis-its were not frequent. he hummingbirds here have now become a part of my family and nurturing these amazing miniature creatures is a pleasure. I love the routine of checking the feeders, brewing up a batch of syrup, cleaning the feeders, filling them and placing them around my yard. I have made my back porch my own personal hummingbird habitat. Petu-nias hang along the railings. Clematis and morning glory climb the trellises. I hang my feeders above, inviting the tiny, colorful birds to dine here. My favorite feeders are the ones made of beautiful glass that catch the light and cast a magical display across my space. As the sun begins to drop, the hummingbirds taunt me. With the hypnotic hum of their wings, they lure me, noti-fying me that is time for me to wind down my day. I gather my book and my other comforts and settle in to enjoy an-other gift from Mother Nature. With lightning speed, they dart from feeder to feeder, with their small peeps and defensive squawks, coming so close to me that I can see the features of their feathers as well as the details of their teeny feet. My porch becomes the stage for their aerial acrobat show. They can be quite dramatic, protecting their space with the flair of their tail-feathers. Enjoying the comings and goings on my back porch, the peace of the evening sun sets upon me. I listen to the hum of life around me, my gratitude to Mother Nature. Here’s the ThingBy Julie Terry CartnerTwenty-eight years ago, at about this time, I was strug-gling. My mother had passed away in December, about six months earlier, and, in January, I had given birth to a pre-mature baby boy. At birth, four months early, he weighed a little over two pounds, and consequently, spent several months in the NICU. When he was finally allowed to come home in May, our lives became easier, and harder. He was fragile, and should I say, rather cranky, and, with our four older children in our home, life was chaotic, exhausting, and challenging.Despite all of that, I decided to take our five children and drive to the Atlanta area to visit my sister and her fam-ily. My husband had to work, so he helped us get ready to leave, kissed us good-bye, and headed to work as we headed south. The drive, with five children under the age of 11, was a bit nerve-wracking, but I knew when I arrived, I’d have plenty of help between my sister, my brother-in-law, and two young adult nieces. So, off we went on our adventure.My sister had been my rock through our mom’s death and my subsequent delivery, and the difficulties associated with an extremely premature baby, sending cards and gifts, and calling frequently, and I really wanted to spend some time with her. Despite the insanity of taking five children on a solo trip, it was a wonderful week. We did what sis-ters do; we encouraged and supported each other. I head-ed home at the end of the week; happy I had made the decision to go. Less than half a year later, my sister died unexpectedly.Here's the thing. The trip was scary with that teeny-ti-ny, delicate, premature baby, and the decision to go was It had been a while since I had been to the beach in the middle of the tourist season.But last week, we traveled to Atlantic Beach for a va-cation and some family events. It made me remember why our beach trips were usually during cooler times.The traffic.Sure, it was the time of the Big Rock fishing tourna-ment, but we stayed away from the Morehead City water-front where all of that action was.But the traffic.Even some of the locals were concerned that the traf-fic at times backed up all the way over the bridge that connects Atlantic Beach from Morehead City. High-rise bridges are really fun during strong winds. My takeaway was that there’s too many of us visiting and living at our beaches. It’s hard to understand how the land there - sewer and water systems, roads, trash, oil leak-ages - can keep up with all the growth.It can’t.It is being changed forever. It can’t be brought back to its original glory. We’re putting our stamp on some of the most beautiful places in our country, and it isn’t pretty.That’s one reason we should all support any effort to save vulnerable lands. It’s a no brainer. We need to protect as much land from development as we can.If we don’t, there will no longer be these magnificent places to visit. Just more sprawl.- Mike Barnhardt Protect our land DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 22, 2023 - 3 Presidential Mothers Renegade ... By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise Dorothy Bush, the moth-er of the 41st President of the United States, George Herbert Walker Bush, and, grandmother of the 43rd President, George Walk-er Bush, was a stickler for rules. She not only believed in having rules, but she be-lieved that you should live by those rules every day. That is exactly what Dorothy Bush did; she lived by the rules so her children could almost have absorbed then by osmosis. Rules such as “Give the other guy credit, be kind, don’t whine and complain, count your blessings, be honest, your conscience should be your guide…it’s not good manners to talk about your-self… think about other people, be thoughtful and considerate.” That list was taken from the book titled, “First Mothers, the Wom-en Who Shaped the Presi-dents” by Bonnie Angelo. The following statement by Dorothy’s son, George, is also from Angelo’s book: “She (Dorothy) set the ex-ample; she led by the way she lived her life rather than lecturing to us all the time. She did give advice; it was always sound---al-ways about being thought-ful and considerate of oth-ers. And about being kind. She didn’t lecture about love…..she lived that part of life and we saw it ever day of our lives.”Dorothy Bush was a Christian who taught Chris-tian precepts, not by talking about them, but by living them. Dorothy was born into the wealthy, mid-west-ern Walker family. She married Prescott Bush, who was a member of the wealthy Bush family. When Dorothy and Prescott had children, five in all, she could have hired nannies to care for the m and spent the day socializ-ing. That was not the case. Dorothy did have a cook, maids to clean and a general factotum, Alec Chodaczek, an Uranian immigrant, who kept things running on an even keel; but she took care of her children herself. Dorothy’s daughter said that their mother was al-ways with them, meaning she was with her children every day. The children’s father was more remote be-cause he went into the city to work each day. The chil-dren were a little bit afraid of their father because he was a different kind of dis-ciplinarian. He was not as comfortable with the chil-dren involved in activities all around him. He liked it better when they were dressed and were sitting quietly at the table during dinner. One family activity that Prescott Bush did love was having the family gather around the piano and sing popular songs, old and new. Prescott Bush had a beauti-ful voice, and he knew all the words to all the songs. That reminded him of his Whiffenpoof days at Yale University.Dorothy Bush was a small, athletic person. She played a terrific game of tennis; golf; and was up for any kind of physical activity. She was compet-itive and often a winner, but she was not a braggart. She said that no one liked a braggart, and people should not spend time talking to others about themselves. She taught the children that they should be team players. One day George came in talking about his ballgame. His mother said, “You didn’t have a game, how did the team do?”Being indoctrinated with the idea that nobody likes a braggart and no one like to hear people talk about themselves, made politick-ing hard for George Her-bert Walker Bush. Politi-cians talk about themselves and all they have done. Some politicians do not even seem to have trouble taking how great they are. That was not George Bush, but he did talk about what he wanted to do if he was elected president. Remem-ber his thousand points of light?When reading about the kind of training that George Bush got from his mother concerning being a team player, one begins to fast-forward to the many jobs which George later held that required team-work—Ambassador to the United Nations, Chair of the National Republican Party, Head of the U.S. Li-aison Office to the People’s Republic of China, and di-rector of the CIA. George Herbert Walker Bush was chosen for all those jobs be-cause he was a team player.The fact that you should love and help others was so instilled in George that he was called “have-half” be-cause if he had a candy bar or a sandwich, he would in-vite another child to “have half.” Once when his school was having a field day, a fat boy got caught in a barrel. George H.W. Bush jumped up from his seat, ran onto the field, helped free the boy, and then ran the rest of the race with him. One of the Bush children said, “Mother said ‘think about other people. Put other people first.’” The lessons about being considerate of other became a part of George H.W. Bush’s per-sona. The lady who George H.W. Bush married many years later said, “George is the nicest person in the world.” She said that after they had been married for many years.The year that George Bush was going to grad-uate from high school, he attended a dance at the country club during his Christmas holidays. There he met a girl, named Bar-bara Pierce, who attend-ed a girl’s school in South Carolina. That was a “love at first sight” story. George and Barbara went back to their respective schools, but all that they seemed to think about was each oth-er. As soon as George was graduated, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and trained to become a Navy pilot. In-stead of Dorothy Bush be-ing upset about her young son’s love affair, she took Barbara to see George at Chapel Hill, where he was being trained. He actually became the youngest Navy pilot ever. From the beginning of the George Bush/Barbara Pierce love affair, Dorothy was understanding and sup-portive. George and Barba-ra got married as soon as George returned from fight-ing in the Pacific. Dorothy was totally sup-portive even though both George and Barbara were still quite young. Barbara said that she felt closer to her mother-in-law, Dor-othy, than she did to her mother—that was quite a tribute to Dorothy, maybe not to Barbara’s mother, Mrs. Pierce.Dorothy went to China to visit her son when he was head of the U.S. Liaison Office there. Considerate George had sent Barbara home to be with their chil-dren because he thought one of the parents should be with them at Christmas even though they were al-most grown. Dorothy did not want George to be alone so she went to China when she was well into her 70s. Dorothy, always the ath-lete, rode a bicycle all over the city while the Chinese people looked on in amaze-ment. That did not bother Dorothy; she had a fine time exploring.Much has been said about Christian precepts, which Dorothy taught by the way she lived on a daily basis, but she also enjoyed having people around who discussed re-ligion. The Bushes were also good friends of Billy Graham, the evangelist, and his wife, Ruth Gra-ham. When the Grahams visited Walker’s Point, the Bush vacation home, Billy would sit down, discuss, and answer questions about religion and/or about the Bible, which the children and grandchildren who sat around him, would ask. George Walker Bush, who became the 43th Pres-ident of the United States, said that it was in one of these sessions that the di-rection of his life changed. That, of course, please George’s grandmother. According to Angelo’s book, “When tourists were being conducted through the White House after George H.W. Bush became President In 1989, they saw there on the portico was the frail, 87-year-old mother of the new president, parked in her wheelchair, chatting and shaking hands with the line of public visitors, and, when she moved inside, she took up a spot by a win-dow where she could wave to them. The legs that had raced over so many tennis courts were no loner steady, and illness had left her frag-ile, but nothing could keep her from participating in the grandest moment of her life.”Dorothy Bush lived through the four years of George H.W. Bush’s pres-idency and a short time after he was defeated af-ter serving one term. Even while he was a busy presi-dent, George Bush said that his mind was often on his mother and his love for her. It’ was his Mum’s words: “Do you best, try your hardest, be kind, share, go to church.” When she was ninety-one, Dorothy Walk-er Bush had another stroke and died. That was a ter-rible blow for a family that had enjoyed being led for so many years by a strong, feisty lady, named Dorothy Walker Bush.Angelo ends the chap-ter on Dorothy Bush, which was titled, “Play by the Rules,” with these words:“He (George Her-bert Walker Bush) had been dealt two terrible blows, one upon the other, and now he must hand over the White House to the man who had defeated him. He performed that wrench-ing task with the grace and goodwill he had been taught by his mother. Her hallmark on favored son was indelible.” George Herbert Walk-er. Bush’s personality was such that he later became good friends with the man who defeated him, William Jefferson (Bill) Clinton. It was a friendship that was rewarding for both the Bush and the Clinton fam-ilies.

Many years ago, the Spirit of the Night noticed that there were fewer and fewer stars in the sky. He called upon the Spirit of the Wind to bring back the stars. He knew the stars were hiding in the twigs of the cottonwood trees so he created a strong wind that snapped the branch-es off. When they broke and fell, the stars shot out of the twigs and into the sky. Kachina dolls made by native Americans are carved from cottonwood roots. Natives believe that the shade of the cottonwood possesses an in-telligence that is healing and can help you avoid conflicts. They think the tree is a protector and a provider.There are medicinal uses. The resin of the buds con-tains salicin, the same compound that gives aspirin its pain relieving and fever reducing helps. There is a cottonwood salve for skin irritations and sunburn that is made from the buds. They are soaked with olive oil for months before use. The sticky sap was used to waterproof baskets and buckets in early times. Bees use it to seal their hives. Nature is amazing, and the many facts and uses were interesting for me to study. 4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 22, 2023 Continued From Page 1three signers of the Decla-ration of Independence. Tobacco became king and until the Civil War, Granville was one of the five counties in the state that had 10,000 slaves. The sandy soil and to-bacco’s heyday brought huge growth to Oxford’s merchant district and plenty of grand homes. After two centuries of agricultural growth, no longer is it sig-nificant to the town.A critically acclaimed movie, “Blood Done Sign My Name,” told the story of a racial confrontation that killed Henry Marrow and starred Ricky Schroder. Civil Rights attorney Ben Chavis, nationally known Oxford resident, led the protests.The Granville County Courthouse was built in 1838. The first Masonic or-phanage for children in the United States was built in Oxford. It was originally established as St. John's College in 1858, ceas-ing operations shortly after opening. In 1872 the community decided that the property should be repurposed to educate disadvantaged populations. In December 1873, the first residents were admitted to the Oxford Orphans Asy-lum, which is today known as the "Masonic Home for Children at Oxford.” The Orpheum movie theatre has survived as an event center.Hungry as always, I stopped to see Tristane at Strong Arm Bakery. She didn’t have to flex her muscles to get me to buy my second ever whoopie pie, complete with a re-freshing strawberry filling and a large oatmeal cookie. They had a bicycle library outside that allows visitors to check out a bike to tour town. Oxford was friendly, interesting, clean, busy and full of historic architecture.•I then drove to Hender-son, the Vance County seat. The first settlers’ residence was built in what is now Henderson in 1785 by Samuel Reavis Sr. Reavis called his farm “Lone-some Valley” which likely described the area at that Freeze ... Sites in Henderson, the Vance County seat, include a large Rose’s Department Store presence, and Zollicoffer’s Law Office built in 1887. - Photos by David Freeze Downtown Roxboro, the county seat of Person County, and the Kirby Theater in the downtown. time. Reavis’ son, Lewis Reavis, opened a store close to the stagecoach road in 1811 when he began to see an influx of settlers and the awakening of a city. In 1835, residents decided to call the city Henderson after Judge Leonard Hen-derson.The railroad brought new businesses downtown, but two major fires in 1870 and 1885 destroyed most of the stores. The need for work helped rebuild the down-town quickly, incorporat-ing the use of bricks in the historic area so that many of those stores remain. Tobacco fueled the post-fire economy with five tobacco factories and three warehouses, along with three cotton gins, 20 stores and two newspapers.I found that Roses stores are still alive in this area and maintain several store-fronts on Main Street in the historic P.H. Rose Building. Ben E. King, singer and composer of “Stand by Me” was born in Henderson. •I fell in love with Warrenton immediately. The county seat of Warren County was founded in 1779. One of the small-est towns that I will visit, Warrenton was named for Dr. Joseph Warren, a patriot killed at the Battle of Bun-ker Hill in the Revolution-ary War. About 90 percent of its buildings, more than 200 in number, are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Warrenton was considered the richest town in the state from 1840 to 1860 for its cotton and tobacco production. I was in awe of all the history, especially with so many of the houses and buildings signed with the year of construction and first owner.Confederate General Braxton Bragg and current NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick were born in Warrenton. The popula-tion of the town has varied little since 1850 and is still within 100 residents of the early figure at about 900. Warrenton was not served directly by railroad until November 1884. Another beautiful old courthouse was built on the site of two previous ones in 1906. Fans of old homes with well-kept yards could walk for hours in Warrenton.Finally, Warrenton is the town that owns itself. The Hotel Warren was finished in 1922 but fell on hard times during the depression. A restaurant did OK, but the hotel portion was closed. In the 1950s, town residents got together and took a room each to renovate with the hotel able to reopen as apartments. It survives today, having just celebrated its 100th anniversary.•The excitement of the journey grew with each new town. I had 6.14 miles on my feet, then continued east for more. See you soon about those visits. Editor’s note: David Freeze is a runner, running coach and long-distance cyclist from China Grove in Rowan County.

There are probably not many towns or counties that can say that. That’s significant in a budget.“The other thing I would draw attention to is that while there is money com-ing from our fund balance as part of our budget, that money is not part of our core operational expense but instead is intended to be part of the seed money in new projects that con-nect the dots back to our Comprehensive Plan – and turning that into actionable work.”While also choosing not to assign the American Res-cue Fund Act funding to any given set of expenses but to instead literally add those funds to the town’s savings account in preparation for those projects, Brannon said in his mind that was an example of “a healthy, bal-anced budget.”• Also in last Thursday night’s meeting, the coun-cil received an update on the Blue Heron Trail from Meadwell, who said, “We are setting the hard date for the opening. The time has come. There are a few other issues the contractor has to resolve.”Meadwell said he is tar-geting the week of June 26, and possibly the date of the council agenda meeting on Tuesday, June 27.“And that would include removing the gate system from the tunnel?” Cross asked.“We’re going to let the folks from Kinderton come through,” Meadwell said with a laugh. • The town council start-ed its meeting last Tuesday night by celebrating Davie County being named an All-America County by the National Civic League. Town Manager Andrew Meadwell and council member Melinda Szeliga, who represented Bermu-da Run over the previous weekend in Denver, Colo., headed a presentation that culminated with the mayor and council being presented with the plaque and enjoy-ing a team picture.“It was truly amazing to see this,” Meadwell said, where 20 cities/counties B le s s e d AssuranceFISHMARKET FRESH Flounder, Oysters, Shrimp, Alligator, Croaker, Mullet, Tilapia, Black Sea Bass, Mahi Mahi, Frog Legs, Steak Fish, Salmon, and MORE!

If you could have seen those children and those young adults and felt their excitement and their energy, it was an in-credible experience.”Meadwell added: “This presentation was led by these students. There were parameters given by the adults, but they came up with the script, the idea, and it was awe-inspiring. This glimpse of what our future leaders are going to be gives you faith that we’re going to be OK.”Mayor Rick Cross not-ed that Davie County was one of three winners from North Carolina – along with Charlotte and Fayetteville – among the final 10 that were selected going up the likes of huge cities such as New York, Los Angeles and oth-ers. The other winners were Dallas, Texas, Decatur, Ga., Gonzales, Calif., Hampton, Va., Mesa, Ariz., Mount Pleasant, S.C., and San An-tonia, Texas.“With Bermuda Run, we are part of this Davie Coun-ty community,” Cross said. “We are so thankful that this was done in a way where we could participate, that it wasn’t a single entity – that it was all of this together.”During the public com-ments portion of the meet-ing, Lennie Ring offered this perspective: “I can tell you from the Ring house-hold, from our neighbors in Kinderton Village, many of us watched the presenta-tion that the young people presented in Denver, and we were amazed, we were in awe of their maturity, we were blessed to feel that these are the future leaders of our community.”In other highlights from the meeting, the council:• Heard a presentation from Cameron Webb, Da-vie County Fire Marshal/Emergency Management Director, who gave an over-view of the functions, ser-vices and responsibilities of those areas in Davie Coun-ty. That includes inspections (inspection of commercial buildings and new con-struction, maintaining those inspections, fireworks and ABC permits), investiga-tions (all construction fires including residential homes and commercial buildings, and any and all suspicious fires, including arson), and public education (educating the public, including chil-dren, young adults and se-nior citizens, fire safety tips and smoke alarms).• Approved Zoning Text Amendment TA-2023-02 to alter the application of the 10/70 provision on sites within the town. The text amendment removes the eligibility limitation to ar-eas identified on the Future Land Use Map as Village Residential, Mixed-Use Center, Crossroads Com-mercial and Enterprise Cen-ter.• Approved a resolution directing the town clerk to investigate a petition for contiguous annexation for the property owners at 139 Hall Walker Lane and 233 Yadkin River Road. The Planning Board earlier had voted unanimously in sup-port of the petition.• Approved the town manager’s recommenda-tion of amending the 2022-2023 General Fund Budget to accept $1,800 from the Davie County Community Foundation as revenue and expend the same amount for expenses related to the 2022 Christmas in the Town of Bermuda Run and recent Food Truck Friday events.• Heard from Cath-ie Ring, a resident who lives on Kilbourne Drive in Kinderton Village, who expressed her concerns in-volving safety in the grow-ing community.

We must continue to collaborate for the better-ment of our community." In keeping with this year’s focus on youth, 12 student representatives from Ignite Davie College Promise, SURF Board Students Grantmakers, Davie High’s Career and Technical Education Pro-gram (CTE), and the Da-vie Respect Initiative were charged with planning and presenting Davie’s pro-gram. After a couple of brainstorming sessions, they developed the idea of highlighting each program through a graduation cer-emony. Several weeks of work and preparation fol-lowed. “We put a lot of time into creating and practic-ing our presentation, and it came together in the end,” said Grayson Haynes, a ris-ing senior who represented CTE. The team of 32 Davie adults and youth flew to Denver on Thursday, June 8 to prepare for the week-end competition. Friday was spent in rehearsals, fol-lowed by the opening cer-emony and time to explore the city. Saturday was the Big Day, and with the support of program leaders, county and municipal representa-tives, community leaders, and parents, the students gave a 10-minute gradua-tion-themed presentation about the impact the pro-grams listed above are hav-ing on the youth of Davie, followed by a Q&A from the judges. One judge called the presentation “joyful and inspirational,” adding that she had learned much. You can watch Davie County’s presentation beginning at timestamp 1:08 at https://www.facebook.com/AllA-mericaCityAwards?mibex-tid=LQQJ4d.

One particularly poignant pre-sentation the group attend-ed was Motus Theater’s “Stories of Marginalized Voices,” which depicted the impact of immigration and the criminal legal system on young people. During the AAC Civic Action Fair Saturday night, attendees toured exhibits from finalist communities to learn about their history, culture, and more. Following the fair, Ber-muda Run Town Council-woman Melinda Szeliga, who spearheaded Davie’s display, said: “From learn-ing more about the incred-ible programs that are right here in Davie County - and the students who are lead-ing and participating in these programs - to learn-ing about the impactful programs presented by the other national finalists. I now have a wealth of knowledge and best prac-tices to share with our Da-vie community." Youth participants were excited to share their pro-grams and ideas with com-munities from across the country, including during a youth-led roundtable dis-cussion on Sunday.“This experience has shown me different youth programs that other cities are implementing in their communities, which has given me ideas to bring back into our small town to help make it a better place for all ages,” said rising se-nior Brooklyn Lakey, who represented SURF. Please See Davie - Page 9 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 22, 2023 - 9 Continued From Page 8Fellow SURF board member Sean Lane, a ris-ing junior, added: “This conference has been a once-in-a-lifetime experience to connect with other commu-nities around the country on a personal and educational level.”The weekend culminated in an awards ceremony on Sunday night. The moment everyone had been waiting for became a nail-biter for Davie’s delegation as the National Civic League’s board members began rec-ognizing the 10 winners in no particular order. Finally, at number nine, the team heard the words they had longed to hear. “This community has been equipping students for the future. This community has been funding youth proj-ects. This community is igniting the future. This All-America County is Davie County, North Carolina.” After cheers, tears, and squeals of excitement, the delegation took to the stage to accept the award as a team.

The team finished the night celebrating their win at the conference’s ice cream/dance party.“Being a part of the All-American City group as an elected official and a mom has been rewarding in so many ways,” said Kelly Funderburk, Davie County Register of Deeds. “I’ve been honored to be a part of this prestigious group, and proud doesn’t even be-gin to describe how I feel about Davie County’s youth programs. Plus, watch-ing all the other wonderful presentations this week-end has been inspiring and eye-opening as to what we can do together in the days ahead,” Sylas Johnson, a rising eighth grader at South Da-vie, who represented the Davie Respect Initiative, summed up the feelings of the entire delegation. “The trip to Denver has been fun and unforgettable. The continuous effort of dozens of people to work together and present the best of Davie County to the jury while making memo-ries and new relationships is a testament to why Davie County is an All-American County.” Elected officials ex-pressed their pride in the team and their thoughts about being named an All-America County. “We are so proud of the team that took the Davie County message of work-ing together to achieve out to Denver. Our wonderful community is certainly de-serving of the All-America County designation. Our best days are certainly ahead of us,” said Mark Jones, chair of the Davie County Board of Commissioners. Equally proud, Bermuda Run Mayor Rick Cross said: “Being recognized as an All-America County is an acknowledgment by oth-ers that our commitment to our youth, and our future, runs deep across our Davie County community. Watch-ing the team prepare for the trip to Denver, then make the presentation and answer questions, I am incredibly optimistic and energized for our county’s future. The commitment we show to our county’s youth through the programs developed is commendable. The way the youth of our county has tak-en those programs as their own, and added their own passion and commitment, is awe-inspiring.” Cooleemee Mayor Jes-sica Almond said: “What an amazing opportunity it was to have students from Da-vie County go to Denver to represent Davie County and bring back a win and put Davie County in the spot-light.”"I am so proud of the team that went to Denver and presented on behalf of Davie County for this prestigious award. I am more proud of all the folks throughout our county that work every day in organi-zations and businesses that make it possible for us to be considered an "All-Amer-ican County,” said Mocks-ville Mayor Will Marklin. “We are truly blessed to live in such a great community, full of citizens that care for each other and constantly strive to make it better each day. We are Davie County."July 1 CelebrationThe delegation and a Na- tional Civic League repre-sentative will celebrate the award with Davie County on July 1 at 7 p.m. at Davie County Community Park as part of the 4th of July fes-tivities. Brooklyn Lakey, Jackie Lane, Sean Lane and Suzanne Lakey enjoy their time in Denver.

Death NoticeMiss Barbara Ann Clodfelter, 72, of Coolee-mee, died Friday, June 16, 2023. Steven Tevis BrownMr. Steven Tevis Brown, 54, of Davie Academy Road, Mocksville, died suddenly Saturday, June 10, 2023 at Atri-um Health Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Win-ston-Salem.He was born on Dec. 20, 1968 in Dona Ana County, N.M., to Walter Tevis and Sharyn Dawn Buchanan Brown. While living in New Mexico, Steve worked at Roper’s Lubricator as a service manager, where he was loved by all of his co-workers and cus-tomers, as he was the local boy. During Steve’s college years, he met his wife and moved to Arizo-na in 1996, where he worked with a close friend, Jim Nasi, owner of Jim Nasi Customs, developing a passion for custom motorcy-cles. In 2000, Steve married the love of his life, Jana, and moved to North Carolina. After moving to North Carolina, Steve took a job at CarMax of Greensboro, where he continued to develop a rapport with his customers and co-workers. After having children and working nights, Steve decided it best to prioritize his fam-ily by working at Bentley of High Point, back on days, which would also become his favorite job. While there, Steve continued to develop professionally and truly dis-played his reliability and loyalty to the industry, but most importantly, his customer network. Steve was an excellent mechanic who also enjoyed NASCAR, drag racing, and classic cars, especially his very own ’57 Chevy.

She enjoyed being with others and before her ill-ness she often hosted many pool parties, cookouts, meals, Thanksgiving and Easter dinners for her family, neighbors and friends. She was known for serving homemade meals with her delicious sourdough bread and pound cakes. She never forgot a birthday and if you were fortunate enough to be one of her many friends you were truly blessed. Faye had a quick sense of humor and never forgot a funny story that she could share at any appropriate moment. She was happily married to her best friend and care giver, Nick Poindexter, and on July 23 they would have celebrated 28 years together. She and Nick enjoyed many wonderful adventures, traveling with friends and family all over the United States.

Many of the children in the area are not sure if there will be food on the table at meal time. That’s why the youth decided to lead this food drive.Individuals at Holy Cross, 1913 US 601 S., do-nated items of food at the church. The men’s group, along with other members, donated money to help with the purchase of food items, personal care items, and cleaning products. A Thrivent Action Team card in the amount of $250 was acquired. All these sources allowed the youth to donate approximately 550 items.

If I had to choose a favorite, grilled meal – it would be a simple, charbroiled beef patty with all the fixings and delicious, accompanying side dishes. While premium beef burgers are a welcome addition to any patio party, grilled kabobs offer a different presentation. The kabob makes a colorful statement on a plate with alternating tastes of assorted veg-gies. And for the more waist-con-scious folks – it comes sans bun. There’s a difference between a shish kabob and a shish kebab. The word shish kebab comes from the signature Turkish meal and means “sis kebap” which translates to “skewer” and “roasted meat.” The two dishes are similar but there’s one main difference. A Shish ka-bob is made with cubes of meat and veggies threaded onto skew-ers while kebab meats are shaped into meatballs or patties and then grilled. Skewered meats and backyard kebobs became all the rage after well-traveled international tourists brought the idea back to the States. While traditionally made with lamb and pork, kebab style using beef and chicken is now more popular with alternating chunks of tomato, onion, peppers, and other vegetables.There are lots of tasty desserts for a delicious finale to your grilled meal. My favorite would have to be a frosted, decadent, brownie made with cocoa – giving each bite a richer and deeper taste of chocolate. But in keeping with a simple menu, any of your pick-up desserts – like brownies and bars – will fit in nicely with an easy, outdoor entertain-ing theme. Any sweet cake, bread, or bar made with gar-den veggies such as carrots and zucchini would be a tasty choice, as well. When it comes to beverages – you can’t beat good ol’ Southern tea. I’m always on the lookout for new brews – those thirst-quenching tea punches. I love concoctions that begin with a fresh pot of hot brewed tea. Just add your favorite spices and fruits, chill, and serve over ice. Life’s great when things go our way – when we get to choose our favorite foods to eat and things to do. However, living doesn’t feel quite as good when life dishes out what we don’t want. So, reluctantly, we take what’s offered. We feel forced to accept what we didn’t choose – that which didn’t make our list of favorites. But it’s reassuring to know that God works “all things” for our good. We are wise not to focus on what makes us happy but rather, on how we fulfill God’s purpose. Romans 8:28 reads, “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” (NIV)So even when life doesn’t go our way and we’re unable to have all we want from this life – know that God has a better plan for us. We’ve been called by the Holy Spirit within to receive Christ. And those who receive through the Spirit are predestined to be conformed to the likeness of the Son of God. Keeping our eyes focused on heaven – let’s continue to honor and serve God. And by doing so, we will learn to let go of our desires, wants, and favorites – without resentment. God has chosen you – and He is for you. If God had a list of favorites, we’d be right at the top!

Burgers, ‘bobs, brownies and brews: It’s summer DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 22, 2023 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The conference title in wres-tling always comes down to Da-vie and West Forsyth. Davie has collected 28 regular-season championships over the years - 27 of them under legendary Buddy Lowery, who piloted the program for 43 years until his retirement following the 2018-19 season - but the Titans have snatched the past two trophies. They’ve been blood rivals for about 20 years, but the rivalry will have a different feel come next winter. Davie’s Josh Stanley and West’s Timmy Allen are not only good friends who work as a team at Stanley’s business, Combat Athletics, they are also former War Eagles. Stanley resigned after leading the Lake Norman High program for four years, then accepted the position at Davie after Perry Long stepped down. Allen was a football/wrestling coach at North Davie Middle before getting the job just across the Yadkin River at West Forsyth. “It’s such an amazing thing for Timmy,” Stanley said. “He’s put a lot in and it was his time to make that jump. So I’m excited for him. I know he’s a competitor, so we’ll probably go at it. We’ll have our scraps for sure, but we’re buddies and we both respect each other a lot. We grew up bleeding orange.”“You go from training to beat West and now I’m going to flip the script,” Allen said with a laugh. “I take my boys to (Combat). I mean I’ve been to Disney with Combat twice and I help out there whenever I can. Josh was actually one of my mentors growing up. My group really looked up to their group and we wanted to be like them. They set the tone and I’m sure they learned from teams before them for how to work in that room. It’s funny how every-thing works out. We’ll still work together to develop these kids, but we’re definitely looking forward to those cross-river matches. It’s going to be good entertainment, I Friendly rivals Former War Eagle wrestlers coaching at competing schools Carson Whisenhunt made his Double-A debut look easy, the lefthander tossing a two-hit shut-out over five innings as the Rich-mond Flying Squirrels beat the Altoona Curve 6-1 on June 7. Whisenhunt walked two, struck out seven and faced just 18 batters (three over the minimum) with 4,269 fans on hand. This was his 15th professional start between four levels, and the numbers are crazy hot: 1.57 ERA, 77 strikeouts, 15 walks. His success has been utterly mind-blowing in part because he didn’t enter the season with a lot of momentum. In 2022, before he was picked by the San Francisco Giants in the second round, he had a 7.88 ERA over four starts in the Cape Cod League. His 2022 season included seven mound appearances between the Arizona Complex League, with Low-A San Jose and in the Arizona Fall League. Then came an amazing 2023 season in which Whisenhunt has lived up to or surpassed every expectation the Giants have for the 22-year-old. In four starts for San Jose, he collected 20 Ks. For High-A Eugene, he carved out a 1.42 ERA over 25.1 innings, with eight walks and 36 Ks, as he earned Pitcher of the Month in the High-A Northwest League. After making six starts for Eu-gene, Whisenhunt was promoted for the second time this season. •••Whisenhunt couldn’t stay that hot forever. He left after 3.2 innings in an eventual 7-5 loss to Bowie Baysox in his second Double-A start on June 13. Although he gave up four runs on five hits, the outing wasn’t all bad. He walked one, struck out five and threw 47 of 69 pitches for strikes. Whisenhunt’s AA debut: 2 hits, 5 innings, no runs Please See Rivals - Page B6 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record A look back at Davie sports 30 years ago ... Lee Puckett and Jason Murphy flexed their muscles in the fourth quarter as North Davie’s freshman boys basketball team turned back South Davie’s upset bid. The Tigers trailed 50-47 after the third quarter, but North poured in 30 points in the last eight min-utes to win 81-70. Murphy scored 13 of his 21 points in the decisive fourth, and Puckett led all scorers with 28. • Even though Mt. Tabor’s wrestling team took the last two weight classes to force a 29-29 tie with Davie, the match went down as a Davie victory. “We won seven matches, they won six,” coach Buddy Lowery said. “So we win by criteria.”Davie’s biggest win came from James Coulston, who edged Jon Bowman 6-5 to give Davie a 29-19 lead. Coulston stayed perfect at 20-0, while Bowman slipped to 21-3. • North Davie’s wrestling team and Trinity tied for first place with 12-1 records, but the Wildcats 30 years ago Van Hoy nails 7 for 7 three pointers for Davie earned the top seed because of a win over the Bulldogs. Nathan Ferree (83 pounds), David Potts (116), Jeff Wilson (130) and David Daye (144) all went 13-0 in the regular season. • Brad Van Hoy, a senior spot-up shooter for Davie’s varsity boys basketball team, torched South Rowan at home. He went 7 for 7 from three-point range as Davie stopped a 20-game losing streak in the CPC and blew out the Raiders 84-53. “I told the boys we can all im-prove,” coach Charles Crenshaw said. “Van Hoy took it to heart. About halfway through, he said: ‘I’m not going home a loser to-night.’ Then he went out and did something about it.”Van Hoy, who did all his scor-ing from long range, broke the program record for 3s in a game, the old mark belonging to Charlie Crenshaw, who drained six triples against Parkland in 1990. “Van Hoy practices hard and is the most supportive guy we’ve got,” Crenshaw said. “On the bench, he’s congratulating people. He’s just a super kid.”Davie also got big performanc-es from Brandon Scott (16 points, 10 rebounds), David Snyder (14 points, 12 rebounds) and Bubba Coleman (12 points, five steals, four assists). • As a second-year program, Davie’s boys swim team finished third in the CPC championship meet at Grimsley. Brian Tribble broke the CPC record in the 100 butterfly at 54.82. The best finish for the Davie girls was third place in the 400 relay (Stephanie Carter, Gretchen Umberger, Lori Vogler and Allison Ward). • With the score close in the fourth quarter, South Davie’s sev-enth/eighth boys basketball coach Barry Whitlock sent Scott Carter into the game. Carter responded with 4-for-4 foul shooting and the Tigers held off North Davie 49-42. “I put him in with three minutes left because I knew they’d foul,” Whitlock said. “He made me look good. He’s a very good free-throw shooter.”South was led by Josh Barn-hardt (17 points) and Frankie Tatum (15). • North Davie’s seventh/eighth girls basketball won 23-16 over Please See 30 - Page B2 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Mocksville Junior Legion baseball team’s 4-3 home win over South Rowan on June 13 felt momentous. Not only did Mocksville erase a deficit and win in dramatic fashion in the seventh inning, it defeated the same pitcher who cuffed Mocksville 11-0 on May 31. Several players came up big, but the seventh-inning hero was Nate Barr, who knocked in two runs on the final swing of the game. “It was a dogpile celebration on Nate,” coach Chad Cox said. “The dugout cleared and ran to second base. That was cool.”Mocksville’s Aaron Hutchens and the South hurler locked up in a pitchers’ duel. It was 0-0 in the top of the fourth when South put two runners on with one out. Hutchens got out of it unscathed by getting a groundout and a strike three looking. Barr’s clutch hit provides win for Junior Legion Likewise, South escaped a two-on, no-out threat from Mocksville in the last of the fourth. After Ka-son Stewart and Hutchens opened the inning with singles, Mocksville failed to score as Stewart was thrown out at home for the second out, followed by a popup to short. But Mocksville broke through in the fifth. Carson Queen singled with one out. Craig McBride got a bunt hit. Courtesy-runner Jacob Morgan and McBride both scored on a hit by Stewart. Mocksville’s 2-0 lead was short-lived, though. South rallied to tie on a single, a walk, a passed ball, a sac fly and a single. Mocksville threatened in the sixth, but left two runners. Logan Allen and Parker Davis were on first and third, respectively, with one out, but a strikeout and flyout kept the score 2-2. In the top of the seventh, South made Mocksville pay for a hit batsman and a passed ball, a hit knocking in the tiebreaking run. That’s how Mocksville faced a 3-2 deficit going into the bottom of the seventh. After the first batter flew out, Stewart singled up the middle. Hutchens followed with a sharp single, and when the threw went home, the runners advanced to second and third. On a 1-1 count, Barr singled through the right side. Hutchens scored the clinching run with ease as Mocksville stopped a two-game slide. “We saw the same exact pitcher (from the 11-0 loss),” Cox said. “He threw a lot of curveballs and we still had a hard time hitting his curveballs. But when we got the opportunity to strike, we were doing it.“Nate hits it well. That’s why we’ve got him in the four or five slot most of the time.” Stewart (3 for 4) kept doing his thing in the No. 3 spot in the order. He’s had a string of eye-catching performances at the plate, includ-ing 2-3 against West Forsyth, Please See Clutch - Page B5 Joshua Whitaker throws a pitch for the Mocksville Junior Legion.

South got six points from Angie Priestley and four from Laura Correll. • In the state dual final, Davie wrestling suffered a gut-wrenching 26-22 loss at Cary after taking a 19-0 lead. “I think we outwrestled them,” coach Buddy Low-ery said. “But there were some questionable calls. There’s a bunch of disap-pointed boys. I don’t know what to say to them.”Davie won the first six weight classes. Chris Marel-lo won in overtime at 103. Josh Whitley won 8-6 at 112. Scotty Spry won 8-5 at 119. Matt Wilson won in overtime at 125. Jon Ward won 11-3 at 130. And after trailing 6-3, Matt Sain ral-lied 10-7 at 135.

While Davie improved to 8-16, Reynolds stumbled to 17-6. The Demons de-stroyed Davie by 30 and 24 points in the regular season. Coleman was the catalyst with 17 points, seven assists and four steals. He scored the last five points of the game. “Nobody in this gym thought we could win but us,” Crenshaw said. “We played our hearts out.”“They outplayed us,” Reynolds coach Howard West said. “They outhus-tled us. They outscrapped us. The team that deserved to win the game won the game.”Reynolds’ 6-11 big man, Jiri Formanek, hit two free throws to tie the game at 59. Davie went to its weave of-fense. Coleman dashed past his defender, scored off the glass and was fouled, giving Davie a 62-59 lead at :39. Reynolds couldn’t get the ball inbounded with four seconds left. It called a timeout that it did not have, resulting in a technical foul. Coleman hit two free throws to ice it. Earlier, Jared Eure drilled a 3-pointer to tie it at 57. Then Davie took a 59-57 lead on a Gerald Roberts drive. “Reynolds is an awe-some team,” Crenshaw said. “But we never believed we’d lose.”• Andrea Gentry (tri-ple-double) and Shannon Umberger (double-double) sparked Davie girls bas-ketball to a 67-52 win over Glenn in the first round of the playoffs.

Mecham and Marcus King both went 3 for 4. King went the distance on the mound and fanned nine. • Pitcher Justin Draughn struck out 15 in a one-hitter to lead North Davie past South Davie, 8-3. “I saw he could be a pitcher last summer,” coach Mike Dinkins said. “He even struck out two batters with a knuckleball.” Lori Sluder was one of the CPC’s top hurdlers.

Volleyball Champions Considered by many just 20 or 25 years ago to be a trash fish, catfish have worked their way well up the fishing totem pole in re-cent years.The discovery and de-velopment of trophy fish-eries for big blue and flat-head catfish have certainly driven the public’s desire to tussle with the whiskered battleships of freshwater – even to the point of cat-fish-specific tackle being sold by most major manu-facturers, as well as anglers learning and developing new ways to rig bait up in an attractive manner.The N.C. Wildlife Re-sources Commission has taken notice of the number of anglers targeting blues, flatheads and channel cats in the state’s lakes and riv-ers. The agency is offer-ing workshops for anglers who want to learn how to target catfish. One will be on Thursday, June 2, at the Pechmann Fishing Educa-tion Center in Fayetteville, beginning at 6 p.m. Regis-tration is available at www.ncwildlife.org/learning. Record bear harvestNorth Carolina bear hunters set a record during the 2022-23 season, break-ing the 4,000 mark for the first time, an increase of more than 10% over the previous season.The N.C. Wildlife Re-sources Commission said all-time biggest harvests were recorded in the Coast-al and Mountain Bear Man-agement Units: 2,533 and 1,468 bears respectively.Colleen Olfenbuttel, the commission’s black-bear biologist, said the big har-vest in the mountains was largely due to a poor acorn crop last fall, which puts more bears on the move These flathead catfish are pulled from Tuckertown Lake. in search of food, making them more vulnerable to hunters.“(It) likely reflects the influence of the poor acorn crop we observed in fall 2022 in this region,” she said. “Acorn production has been surveyed by the (com-mission) for 40 years, and when acorn production is poor, bears will move more in search of fall foods.”Hyde County was the top county for overall har-vest, with 289 bears tagged, followed by Beaufort with 249, Jones with 204 and Tyrrell with 212. The top county in the mountain re-gion was Haywood with 161 bears taken, followed by McDowell with 135, Madison with 127 and Buncombe with 122.The harvest report showed that 84% of all bears were taken on private land; by contrast, in the mountains, slightly more than one-third of bears were taken on public land. Also, more hunters are taking bears while still-hunting or hunting from stands, 41% vs. 59% taken by hunters using dogs.Olfenbuttel said that fe-male bears comprised 40% of the stateside harvest, up 11% over 2011-22. “Based on our most cur-rent data, we are meeting the population objective for the Coastal BMU, which is to stabilize population growth,” she said.

He was crucial in helping his team secure the win and kept a smile the entire game. Cayson Goff of the Machine Pitch Rams had an amazing night, go- ing 2 for 2 with two home runs. Perfect example of hard work and dedication. Great effort in helping his team get the win.

Pleasant and 4-4 against High Point. “He’s seeing the ball well right now,” Cox said. “He’s hitting line drives.”Hutchens was a major factor. Not only did he go 2 for 4, he pitched a com-plete-game four-hitter with one walk, six strikeouts and 71 strikes in 97 pitches. “It’s impressive to go seven innings under 100 pitches,” Cox said. “He’s had to miss a lot of games, so we haven’t had a chance to see him a lot. But from knowing these players from past seasons, I knew that was in the cards for him.”But no one was more important than Queen, who filled a huge void behind the plate on a day when both catchers were unavailable. “Both of our catchers were out of town,” Cox said. “Carson normally plays shortstop, but he stepped up and had a really, really good game behind the plate. I was told he caught at the Little League level and that was it. He’s been a middle infielder for a long time. I gave them an ultimatum and said: ‘Guys, if we don’t have a catcher, we don’t have a game, so who’s doing it?’ Carson said: ‘I can do it.’ Going into the first inning, we told Aaron: ‘You don’t have a traditional catcher back there, you have to pitch to contact tonight.’ I think Carson had one passed ball all night, so Aaron did his job as a pitcher and Carson didn’t have to get beat up and punished behind the plate.”Notes: The win improved Mocksville to 4-5 overall and 3-4 in the division. ... Mocksville outhit South 11-4, including one hit from Queen (1-3), McBride (1-4), Barr (1-4), Davis (1-3), Allen (1-3) and Joe Barnes (1-3). ... Cox said all three outfielders made plays - Da-vis in left field, McBride in center and Barnes in right. “They got on their horse and ran them down when they needed to,” he said. Put simply, it was not a good week for the Mocks-ville Legion baseball team. Post 174 suffered back-to-back losses for the first time this season when it vis-ited powerhouse Randolph County for a non-league game on June 14. Short-handed Mocksville struck out 14 times against three pitchers and lost 8-2. “I was missing six or sev-en players,” coach Shaggy Wyatt said. “Most of my guys are out of town for beach week. You can’t strike out 14 times and beat some-one, especially when they’re By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record For the second time in three days, the Mocksville Junior Legion baseball team walked a tightrope to victo-ry, winning 7-6 at Carson on June 15. In the previous game, Mocksville survived 4-3 over South Rowan. “People playing out of position have done a really good job,” coach Chad Cox said. “We’ve got a little momentum right now and we just have to ride it out.”This one was a doozy. Mocksville broke out to a 3-0 lead in the top of the first on a hit batsman, a walk, a Nate Barr single and a two-out error. Carson answered in the bottom of the first with four unearned runs. Then Mocksville re-sponded with three runs in the second. The only hit of the inning was a triple by Craig McBride that brought in Jacob Morgan and Carson Queen. Carson opened the home half of the third with four straight hits to tie the game at 6. The damage could have been worse, but left fielder Joe Barnes gunned down a runner at third with a throw to Corbin Angus. “It was a very close play,” Cox said. “It was actually a controversial play between the umpire and Carson’s coaches. It got heated. They thought they got it wrong. It was a bang-bang play, but the call on the field stood.”Mocksville pushed across what proved to be the clinching run in the fifth. Angus took second on a two-base error, advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored on a hit by Logan Allen. How about Allen? He gave Mocksville the 7-6 lead and he turned two unas-sisted double plays at short-stop. It was a game filled with defensive highlights. Angus and Kason Stewart turned a 5-4-3 DP to end the sixth. First baseman Barr and catcher Queen added spectacular plays. “The real story was the defense,” Cox said. “We turned three double plays. Nate had a really good catch in foul territory as he crashed into the fence.”McBride went 2 for 3 with two runs and two RBIs. Allen came up big as Mocksville won despite getting outhit 9-5. But the credit has to spread to pitch-er Parker Davis. After hav-ing some bumpy outings, he threw as well as anyone could have hoped for while going the distance. He scat-tered nine hits, allowed two earned runs and only walked three to help Mocksville pick up a division win. In the bottom of the sev-enth, Davis worked around a leadoff double. He re-tired three straight batters with a popup to Queen, a groundout to second base-man Stewart and a flyout to center fielder McBride. “Parker stepped up to-night,” Cox said. “He was struggling the last couple of outings, but he was di-aled in tonight. The key to anybody’s success is eliminating the freebies and letting your defense do the work. And our defense is strong enough to back up our pitching.”Queen continued to show his mettle as the emergency catcher. “Again Carson came to play behind the plate,” Cox said after Queen put the gear on for the second straight game. “He had a phenom-enal game back there. He caught two foul balls. One was a really elevated foul ball. The other one was a diving catch in the seventh inning. He laid out behind the plate.”Queen went 1 for 2 with two runs and reached base three times. Barr (1-4) and Allen (1-3) had one hit each. Mt. Ulla 9, Mock 2After pulling out heart-stoppers against South Row-an and Carson, Mocksville was underwhelming in a home game against Mt. Ulla on June 16. Post 174 trailed 8-0 after three and a half innings, was outhit 12-3 and struck out 12 times. Mocksville’s hits came from Angus (2-3) and Queen (1-3). Its third pitcher of the night was a bright spot, with Barnes striking out three straight batters in the top of the seventh. Mocksville entered Sun-day at 5-6 overall and 4-5 in the division.

He had two of Mocksville’s six hits. His first hit came in the second inning after the first five Mocksville batters went down on strikes. “I’m glad Will joined our team at the last minute because he puts up a fight at the plate,” Wyatt said. “He puts the ball in play and doesn’t strike out a lot.”This was the second loss to once-beaten Randolph, which hammered Mocks-ville 16-1 on May 21. Kannapolis 10, Mock 5Two nights later, Mocks-ville fell in the Southern Division opener on the road. It was the third Mocks-ville-Kannapolis matchup of the season.

When he graduated from high school in 2002, he was the second-winningest in Davie’s storied history. As someone you could count on for all four years, he helped Davie bag three CPC titles and two state runner-ups in duals. Davie won 42 straight CPC matches during Stan-ley’s career from 1998-99 through 2001-02, and the War Eagles went 106-11 in those four years.

OFFERING COUNSELING FOR Chronic Kidney Disease – High Blood Pressure – Diabetes Heart Disease – Gout – Kidney Stones Kathy Crotts, MS, RD Masters of Science in Nutrition from UNC-Greensboro BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT Kidney Nutrition Care Center Servicing Davie County and Surrounding Counties There are 37 M Americans with kidney disease, and many more people who are at risk of developing kidney disease due to diabetes or high blood pressure. Other people at risk for having kidney disease are those that are overweight, age 60+, or those with a family histo-ry of kidney disease. Kidney disease can be slowed down by making certain changes to diet and lifestyle. You may not know it but there is now a place for people in and around Davie County to go for support and guid-ance to manage or prevent kidney disease. Kathy Crotts, born and raised in Davie County and a registered dietitian for nearly 15 years, opened a private practice in Mocksville, NC earlier this year. After work-ing for many years in the long-term care, hospital, and food service management settings, Kathy decided to make her longtime dream of owning her own business a reality. “About 10 years ago, I had the opportunity to work alongside an amazing team of nephrologists and learn how to slow the progression of kidney disease by making lifestyle and diet changes.” Kathy says, “Ever since I started learning those skills, I’ve been dreaming about opening my own business to help people avoid or delay the need for dialysis.” Recently Kathy, along with her husband, Brent, de-cided that she was ready to make her dream a reality. In January 2023, she moved into her office – Kidney Nu-trition Care Center, which is located at 101 Wilkesboro Street, Suite A, in Mocksville. Kidney Nutrition Care Center is here and ready to help you improve your health and quality of life through dietary changes. Our mission is ultimately to help peo-ple avoid or slow down kidney function decline. That doesn’t mean that she only helps people with kidney disease at her office. Kathy says, “While my goal and mission is to help people with kidney disease, I am meeting that goal when I help people who have high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, or other health conditions. By helping people improve their health with their diets, I’m making a small impact on the number of people who have kidney disease or who require dialy-sis.” Clients who come to Kidney Nutrition Care Center can expect to receive unhurried, personalized nutrition recommendations and guidance. After being welcomed into the office by Brandi Drye, the executive manager, clients receive individual and personalized counseling on their nutrition needs. Clients help determine how frequently they come in for follow-up visits based on their needs and schedules. Individuals can self-pay for services or health insurance can be filed. Sliding scale discounts are also offered for those that qualify based on financial need. The Kidney Nutrition Care Center is currently in-network with Medicare, Humana, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and some United HealthCare plans. For maximum support and success, program packages are also available which help with accountability, meal plans, email support, and between-session coaching. Additionally, food items and supplements are available for purchase to help support clients’ needs. The difference in Kidney Nutrition Care Center is that they form partnerships with clients so that they can be successful in reaching their goals for improving their health. “I am passionate about helping my clients reach their goals” says Kathy “I am not here just to give hand-outs and wish people well on their journey. It is an amaz-ing feeling when people I’ve been able to help realize that they have made changes that will keep them off dialysis for much longer than they expected.” You can find out more about Kidney Nutrition Care Center by visiting www.kidneynutritioncare.com, fol-lowing them on Facebook, or by calling 336-936-8169.

Mngr. at 135 as a senior. His career record was 133-36, which at the time was No. 2 behind teammate Patrick Lowery (150-16). Stanley, 39, went on to wrestle at Appalachian State. “It’s amazing. I’m pumped,” Stanley said of returning to the orange and black. “When I was young and in high school, I always joked with Buddy about one day I wanted to have that position. At the time, I wanted to be an athletic director and coach and do it like that. Twenty years later, it looks a little different, but it’s definitely something that I always wanted.”The commute each day to Lake Norman wore on him. It was about 50 minutes one way for four years. “It took some of the fun out of it,” he said. “Then I was ready to double down on the club (Combat is lo-cated at the Rise Sportplex in Bermuda Run), but then the Davie job came open and I was fired up to have the opportunity again. I like being involved in the com-munity. My kids and family are here.”Isaiah Whitley and Jor-dan Nolan will be assistant coaches. “Isaiah is a Davie boy and grew up in the pro-gram,” he said. “Jordan was a three-time state champ in West Virginia. He’s going to come over from Lake Norman. He’s a really big asset to us.” •••Allen, 35, was awesome on the mat. He helped lead the War Eagles to four CPC crowns from 2002-03 through 2005-06, a state runner-up in duals and Low-ery’s third and final state title in 2006. Davie went 141-10 during the Allen era. Allen went 55-1 as a junior and won the state at 171. He missed most of his senior year with a knee injury, so he didn’t get a chance to repeat, leaving with a career record of 133-25. Allen clinched Davie’s last state championship as it hosted Cary on a Saturday afternoon. To see him go out there on a bum knee and pin his opponent was inspiring stuff. He wrestled at North Carolina at Pembroke for three years, then served as a Pembroke assistant for one year. In recent years, he was the head coach of North Davie football and Jamey Holt’s right-hand man for North wrestling. “Jamey was the first per-son I called after I accepted (at West Forsyth) because I’ve had a blast coaching with Jamey,” Allen said. “I had a stint with Jamey, then I went up to the high school for a few years and then I went back to Jamey. So we’ve had a good thing going on.”Getting the job at West was a dream-come-true moment. “It’s very exciting,” Al-len said. “My wife gave me the green light on it. It’s a big step, but I feel like I’m ready for it. I spent five years at Davie under coach Lowery helping with prac-tices and everything, so I feel like I’m ready.”If West can’t make it a three-peat in the CPC in 2023-24, Allen would be happy to see Davie at the top. “Being a Davie alum-ni, you want nothing but success for Davie, even though it’s going to be my rival school now,” he said. “I’m still trying to process all that. I’m a Davie boy. My boys (ages 5 and 6) are going to go to Pinebrook and North Davie and I’m still going to live in the Bermuda Run/Advance area. When the time comes, if they want to go to Davie, they can do to Davie.” Rivals ...Upcoming Games Wednesday, June 21Mocksville Senior Legion at home vs. Kannapolis at 7Mocksville Junior Legion baseball at West Stokes at 7Thursday, June 22Mocksville Legion baseball DH at Concord at 5Saturday, June 24Mocksville Junior Legion at Kannapolis Post 115 at 7Monday, June 26Mocksville Legion baseball at Mooresville at 7 Mocksville Junior Legion baseball at High Point at 6:30 Tuesday, June 27Mocksville Junior Legion baseball DH at Mt.

Mr. Perdue will be preaching at Union United Methodist Church, the other church on the charge, at the early service.Kathy and Bob Ellis have retuned from Manteo where they spent time with and celebrated the birth-day of Kathy’s aunt, Peggy Cline Angell. Peggy, who celebrated her 92nd birth-day, is the only living sister of Kathy’s mother, Nora Cline Latham. Ann Cline, Peggy Angell’s sister-in-law, went with Kathy and Bob to Manteo. Kathy re- ports that her Aunt Peggy is doing well.Many years ago, a young lady who grew up at Fern Hill Farm, located just be-yond the present Eaton’s Church Parsonage, was, with the help of an older sister, able to go Cary to board and attend Cary High School. Several years after she finished high school and college, Rachel married the Cary High School agricul-ture teacher, Shelton Dun-ham, who everyone in Cary seemed to know, like, and call “Dad” Dunham. Rachel and “Dad” Dun-ham bought about 40 acres of Cary land on Kildare Farm Road in 1939 and built a house. I spent the night at the Dunham’s house about 1941 and there were about four or five houses on Kildare Farm Road. Now there are hundreds of hous-es, businesses, churches and what-have-you.Presbyterian Homes wanted to buy the Dunham property and build a retire-ment home. After much “back and forth” the Dun-hams agreed to sells with the legal agreement they would be allowed to live in their home as long as they lived. “Dad” Dunham died early, but Rachel lived many more years, probably more than the Presbyterians expected. The Presbyterians finished the first part of their building project and tried to get Rachel to move there, no cost. That make Rachel mad. She made the Presby-terians live by their original agreement, and she lived in her little cottage until her death when she was nearing 100. After construction began on the retirement home, Ra-chel continued to live in her cottage and fretted about the noise next door. Rachel Dunham was my and Marty Etchison Bab-cock’s first cousin, once re-moved. Marty, who lived in Raleigh, spent many hours visiting her Cousin Rachel and caring for her as she aged. Rachel Dunham was the daughter of my Aunt Su-san Eaton—the lady who I wrote about some weeks ago who said “Write It Down, Record It,” which many of you commented on.Marty and her husband, Bill decided they should look for a place to spend the rest of their days. You guessed it. They chose Gle-naire and moved there a few years ago. The people in charge of Glenaire knew that Marty was the cous-in of the former owners of the property on Kildaire Farm Road. Recently as they were getting ready to celebrate the 30th anniver-sary of Glenaire, they asked Marty to write about the Dunhams for an anniversary booklet. The following is the article that Marty wrote, which I am including it here because I think Davie Coun-ty’s many Master Gardeners might be interested in the information about plants. In fact, “Dad” Dunham, who taught agriculture at Cary High School for 40 years, went to N.C. State when he was a much older man and got a master’s degree in Rachel Dunham surrounded by flowers at her Cary home. Rachel Dunham held onto her home until the end See Rachel ‑ Page B10 B10 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 22, 2023 Sheffield-Calahaln SUBSCRIBE TO THE ENTERPRISE!

Make a-mends? Look for the answer in next week’s paper. Created by Timothy E. Parker June 26, 2023 The (K) Clues Are for Kids A way to conquer a mountain? 35-D) SKI Previous riddle answer: Rachel ... of Winston-Salem, albeit in very different eras; as she and my father were born in 1904. Driving down the gar-den lined driveway past her prized smoke tree was always a joy. In fact, when we visited during the week, it wasn’t unusual to find her working in those gardens into her late 80s. Enormous pine trees towered over her house and 28 acres of woods that framed it. Her patio featured rare plants and led into a screened back porch overflowing with family treasures and histo-ry. (One unusual plant was the putrid smelling Corpse Plant, which she thankfully displayed only briefly.)She was always eager to give visitors a plant. In fact, she “graciously” shared En-glish Ivy with us for a back-yard ground cover. Naively, we failed to anticipate the unintended consequences of that invasive plant. Conse-quently, I spent many long, backbreaking hours correct-ing that misjudgment.!Once the property had been sold to Presbyterian Homes, Inc. and before construction had begun on Glenaire, Cousin Ra-chel urged me to preserve some of the numerous ferns throughout the woods to prevent their loss during construction. The current pond was, of course, there, accessible only by a long walk into the woods, and, as today, is surrounded each spring by effusive displays of yellow irises.One cool spring morning Bill drove my friend, Ang-ie, and me to a spot nearest the pond. We trudged in to-ward the pond, dug up sev-eral magnificent ferns along with their rich, water-laden soil, and nearly broke our backs lugging them back to the car. Those ferns graced our backyard for many years before our move to Glenaire as did the dogwood tree, ajuga, Japanese fern, and other plants that Cousin Ra-chel showered upon us.Cousin Rachel regaled us with stories about plants, Cary history, Walter Hines Page, and the Smoke House Garden which she and Cary friends created. She regu-larly lamented all the chang-es in Cary since she and her husband “Dad” Dunham bult their house here in 1939, particularly the heavy traffic on Kildaire Farm Road which, compared to today, was only a trickle in the late 80s and early 90s.AS Bill and I began re-searching retirement com-munities, we returned again and again to Glenaire, not only because of the facil-ities and the people, but because of its comforting familiarity. The welcoming environment which greeted us as we moved into 2205 Fernglen Place mirrored the warmth which enveloped us on this spot long before there was a Glenaire. We still love it!” DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 22, 2023 - B11 Village of Clemmons Public Works Equipment Operator Now hiring for a Public Works Equipment Operator.
