Depot St., Mocksville Happy New Year By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record This ain’t your mama’s Dollar General.County commissioners gave the go-ahead earlier this month for a new Dollar Gener-al Market off US 64 West near NC 901 and Davie Academy Road when they unanimous-ly agreed to rezone two acres from residential agricultural to highway business conditional.The condition is that a retail grocery store will be built on the site, across the highway from Fast Phil’s (formerly Cartner’s) and other business-es, and adjacent to a salvage yard.The two acres were carved from a corner section of 188 acres owned by Sam Howard Farms Inc., and has been used as farm land in recent years.The market concept is new for Dollar General in North Carolina, with the first having just opened in Rockwell. No timeline for construction of the Davie site was mentioned.The store, said Joe Strick-land, director of operations in North Carolina for Teramore Development, which will own the building, will be about 2,000 square feet larger than the typical Dollar General, and include more fresh foods, Not your mama’s Dollar General More groceries planned at new US 64 W. site coolers and freezers, as well as have more room for storage and wider aisles for customers.“It won’t be your conven-tional type store you see we’ve built everywhere else.”He said the intersection will be improved as part of the pro-cess.Commissioner Benita Fin-ney questioned whether it would work, with other Dollar Generals in the county hav-ing trouble finding workers, and the fire marshal shutting most down for short periods because of overcrowding and blocked aisles.“Are you going to be able to maintain staff to keep your store in the proper condition?”Strickland said that while most of those answers belong to Dollar General, as the leasor they can require the company to keep the property in good shape.“The store will offer en-hanced coolers and freezers. When you typically walk into a Dollar General, all the cool-er and freezer aisles are on the right. When you walk into this store, everything will be in the middle ... with extra room for produce and fresh meat,” Strickland said.The store will offer most-ly grocery items, but include More than a game Sure, the basketball is exciting at Davie High School games, but so are the other activities by students such as dancing boots, cheerleading and band.

Middle-schoolers from Ellis and the virtual school spent their time experiencing facets of Ashley Furniture Industries, Inc. Hosted annually, Manufac-turing Day is a national event focused on manufacturing careers. The tours were the collaborative efforts of Davie CONNECT, Davie County Economic Development, Da-vie County Schools, and the Davie business community. “Middle school students are the next generation workforce, and these tours expose them to career opportunities, show how their current and future curriculum ties to real-world careers, and ignite interest in their future,” said Carolyn McManamy, director of Da-vie CONNECT. “During the tours, businesses showcased the scope of jobs available at their facilities and discussed the requisite higher education or skills training needed.” More than 400 students and staff observed career opportu-nities in the county.

Tell us what you think World not ready for green energy only The Literary Corner: Renegade Writer’s Guild Elisabeth Strillacci To the editor:We have columns often giving us numbers of particles of CO2 emissions, yet they never mention that our flowers and crops (you know, our food sources) need this CO2 as their main food source and photosynthesis.We just finished the 13-day environment “lovefest” known as COP28 in Dubai where over 97,000 came in by their carbon emission producing jets. Dubai sure was a curious choice for this conference since it is smack in the middle of this crew’s arch nemesis—the OPEC oil indus-try. The U.S., led by VP Kamala Harris and Climate Czar John Kerry sent well over 200 climate envoys. Nothing really changed overall as China is still building over 300 new coal plants and India has started over 40. Europe is going back to coal and natural gas because solar and wind aren’t working. And if we were all smarter, we might get back to nuclear power as it is highly efficient.Speaking of not working, green energy projects are falling by the wayside in the U.S. as offshore wind proj- ects can’t get financing and high interest rates have cut the profit margins to nil. Projects have been axed all along the Eastern coast.Ford stands to lose $4.5 billion in EV sales and has stopped production of the F-150 Lightning PU due to lack of demand. GM is restructuring its EV goals amidst ru-mors they will go bankrupt and need another government bailout. And while we are on the EV cars, most probably don’t know that Biden’s trillion dollar infrastructure bill from two years ago had over $7 billion earmarked for EV charging stations. Yet not a single car charger has been built as of two years later. Government efficiency at work.Investors are abandoning the green energy ship in droves as many stocks are down 50% or more in an other-wise great 2023 stock market.So while green energy matters, it can’t be shoved down our throats when the world nor our infrastructure is ready.John NelmsAdvance On the First Day of Christmas, North Carolina gave to me….The Moravian StarPerhaps the most uniquely North Carolina Christmas decoration is the 26-point Moravian Star.100 years before Martin Luther ignites the Protestant Reformation, Jan Hus and his followers attempt to reform the Catholic Church. For his trouble, Hus is eventually tried and burned at the stake in 1415. But his movement survives to become one of the very first Protestant denom-inations: the Moravians.This rebellion against Catholicism begins in Bohe-mia and Moravia, that largely German area that is today part of the Czech Republic. For centuries, the Moravians were forced into hiding, until nobleman Count Nikolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf allowed the group to settle on his lands in 1722. (Remember the NC history story from a few weeks back about the Winston-Salem Hotel Zinzen-dorf that tragically burned? It was named for this Count Zinzendorf.) The Brethren, or Brothers, establish a small village known as Herrnhut (in present-day Saxony) where the group, along with Count Zinzendorf, worked to cre-ate an accepting community. Herrnhut rapidly became the center for the Moravian movement, and the name itself translates into “the Lord’s Watch,” where residents were to watch for God as God was to watch out for them.It is here the stars first appear in the 1830s. Originally To the editor:Advance Fire Department would like to thank everyone who came out to make our 28th Annual Christmas Parade a success. The weather was great and provided a special Christmas feel.A wide variety of entries entertained both young and old. This year we honored one of own as Grand Marshall, Mr. Richmond “Dick” Vogler. Mr. Vogler joined the Ad-vance Fire Department in the early 1950s after completing his military service. Miss Advance was Sue Tucker, rec-ognized by many as their teacher at Shady Grove School. The Davie High War Eagle Marching Band Kicked off the parade with some great Christmas music. The high-light as always, was Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus welcom-ing the Christmas season. This year’s parade winners were: Most Patriotic Group, A-1 Pressure Washing; Best Church Group, Liberty Bap-tist; Most Festive Fire Department; Advance Fire Depart-ment #1; Best Vintage Car, Efird Lee Garage; Best Band, Davie High War Eagles; Best Vintage Tractor, Miller Equipment; Best Dance Team, Cathedral Oak Academy Jump Ropers; Best Animal Group, Matthew and Baby Pig; Best Civic Group, Scout 732; Most Outrageous, Vance Hartly LA Cruiser; Best All Around, Shumack Realty; Best Youth Sports, Shady Grove Bulldogs, and Honorable Mention, Advance F.D. Auxillary.A special thank you to all who work to make this event possible. We wish everyone very Happy New Year.Ronnie Robertson, Public Information OfficerAdvance Fire Department 28th Advance Christmas Parade in the books This is the time of year for celebrations, whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, the winter sol-stice, Three Kings Day or another holiday I am apologetically unaware of.It’s the time families come together, either in person or through the grace of technology, when friends and neighbors join in fellowship, and when church attendance still goes up.For some, we should remain aware, it is a challenge, either because finances are tight and there is little or no room for celebrating, or be-cause a loss has left some alone, and grieving.But for me, this time of year is so much more than the Christmas tree, decorations, and pres-ents. It’s more than the parties and the shopping.This time of year is my reminder that as humans, we still have an innate desire to connect with one another. Whatever our differences are or have been, we still crave the fellowship of others, and more than that, the hope that this season brings.Whether it is the belief that oil that should have lasted a day instead lasted eight, or that thevbirth of a child meant redemption for mankind, or that the earth is being reborn again, it allvsymbolizes hope.We have been through so much as a country in recent years. We have torn ourselves and eachvother apart over petty matters. We havevlet disagreements divide our families and end friendships. We have not been our best selves.And yet the universe continues to give us another chance. Another moment to make amends, to reconnect, to remember what is truly important. Love. Kindness. Compassion. Patience. Tolerance. Under-standing. Grace.I see animals understand this day in and day out. These are all such basic principles, and yet we as humans sometimes overcompli-cate things with our need to be smarter, better, more right than others, and we forget to stick to the basics. We forget how to simply care for one another. We don’t all have to agree in order to be kind. It is not losing to respect differences. And it is never winning to hurt others.Every person has value, and every person has the right to be treated as if they do.Whatever you are celebrating, I hope and pray that the joy that infuses this time of year will stay with you through the months ahead. When you feel the stress coming at you from the daily grind of this world, reach back for the feeling of this season, and let your holiday self be present.I have faith that the goodness that is front and center in each and every one of us over the holidays is always there. And I have faith that we are all strong enough to take a breath and bring that part of us forward.All the holidays seem to have some light associated with them – star of Bethlehem, the Menorah, the night sky – and I hope that light can guide us forward, together.May your season be what you need it to be, and may you know that you are loved. Wishing you the joy of the season they were craft projects to teach geometry. However, the stars were quickly adopted by the Moravian Church as a symbol of the birth of Jesus and represented the Star of Bethlehem. Traditionally, the star is hung on the first Sun-day of Advent and remains up until Epiphany, January 6, or the time of the coming of the Magi.The Moravian communities in North Carolina quickly adopt them as well, and their popularity quickly radiates out from Forsyth County across the state.The Christmas Tree actually appears at about the same time, introduced by the thousands of Hessian Soldiers who stay behind after the Revolution. Later the waves of Ger-man immigrants who flock to America’s shores cling to the It hasn’t even been a year since we all watched Nancy Tutterow on the local television news.There she was - with 99 years under her belt - cele-brating her birthday at the bowling alley. And yes, she bowled a strike that day.Not only that, she represented Davie County well as the news reporter conducted an interview with the lively, 99-year-old bowler.On Dec. 18, Nancy Tutterow died in her sleep, just over a month shy of her 100th birthday.She leaves behind a son, Ray, and a legacy of in-spiration we can only hope to reach.She was born in 1924, about the time Calvin Coolidge delivered the first live radio broadcast by a President of the United States. That’s right; television wasn’t around yet. Running water in homes was not common. Electricity hadn’t reached the confines of rural Davie. It was the first year that Native Amer-icans were granted citizenship based on being born here. The first Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade was held that year. J. Edgar Hoover was appointed to head the FBI.Wow. That’s a lot of change for one person to experience in a lifetime.But Nancy Tutterow did just that, and more. And she did it all with a positive attitude - a desire to make things better for others, to make her church better, to make her community better, to make her family bet-ter.How many could maintain a positive attitude after losing two sons and a husband? Not many.But Nancy Tutterow did.If you lived in the Center community of Davie County, you knew Nancy Tutterow. Let’s restate that: If you lived in Davie County and weren’t hiding un-der a rock, you knew about Nancy Tutterow. Whether it was one of her many capacities at Center United Methodist Church (now Center Methodist), or her never-ending presence at the Center Fair and BBQ, or at just about any Republican gathering, she was there.She was the first woman to seek a political office in Davie County, filing for the register of deeds job. She actually won the Republican primary, but the vote was so close there was a second primary, which she lost. She swallowed her pride and went back to work, and retired after 45 years working for the county. That record will likely stand for a long time.The Davie County Senior Games might as well be named after Nancy Tutterow. She was an original, and competed right up until the very end. Yes, she competed. In every event she entered, she set out to win, and the number of medals she earned is enor-mous. She would have told you it was because there were no other entrants her age, but that wasn’t always true, and even if it was, a 95-year-old driving them-self to the bowling alley to knock some pins down with friends is worthy of a medal in itself.Of course, I knew of Nancy Tutterow when I start-ed working here in 1986. When her son Ray began working here, I got to know her much better. Despite the fact that I came from a long line of Democrats (My mother was a George Wallace Alabama Dem-ocrat, and my father really didn’t care but came, as Miss Nancy told me, from a father who was a stauch Democrat who local Republicans sought favor from.), she embraced my family. Both parents considered her a good friend.We all should.Honor her legacy and do something for your com-munity.- Mike Barnhardt Nancy Tutterow leaves positive legacy for us all Please See Renegade ‑ Page 3 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 28, 2023 - 3 Local news.

The first documented Christmas Tree in America is in Wil-liamsburg in 1842, at the home of a German immigrant professor at William and Mary. It is decorated with can-dles and Moravian Stars.Today, the porches and front doors of a majority of North Carolina homes across the state are lit by Moravian Stars for the holiday season. The Moravian Star is the sin-gle decoration that unites us all across the state as North Carolinians.The star proclaims the hope of Advent: The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. It is the message of the Advent star, which hung over the humble manger of the infant Jesus, who would later say: “I am the bright and Morning Star.” It is the star of promise, the star of fulfillment, and the star of hope.~ Kevin E. Spencer, Author, North Carolina Expatri-atesReprinted in the Enterprise by Linda Barnette with the author’s permission. TwistedBy: E. BishopIt was a wicked mess, let me tell you. The large hand-ful of bracelets and necklaces were all twisted together. How in the world did this happen? It started small, I’m sure, and then just grew and grew. It created a challenge for me as I saw that some of these items should be keep-sakes; not just a blob thrown away. There were memories in these pieces of jewelry, whether they were the tiny gold chains or the larger ones with the owls or hearts attached; maybe not all were worth saving but some definitely were. First, you want to sit down in a comfortable place with good lighting and take a deep breath or two (or three) so you can focus on getting into a mindset of patience, calm-ness and gentleness. You cannot force anything. Knots are three dimensional; you want to tease them out as flat as possible and the closer you get to two dimensional, the easier it will be to visualize each item. Examine the com-plex knots carefully and you will see most are composed of smaller knots and aren’t as nasty as they look. I’ve read you should try to understand the basic geometry of the knots (after reading this, I almost gave up). If you do get frustrated, stop, take a break (I took quite a few) so these possible heirlooms don’t end up in the trash. Actually, this advice applies to any problem solving in general and can be really powerful. So, you need to identify the big knot that is comprised of smaller knots, and this will make the “mother knot” rel-atively easier to tackle. Use tools such as two needles or tweezers for fine chains and gently massage chains back and forth until they start to separate. Then, one by one, you will see the progress. After all the effort spent in this chal-lenge of untangling 25 pieces of knotted jewelry, solutions for keeping them separated is next on the to-do list.This short real-life story can be looked at like an analo-gy of real life challenges a lot of people face. Small prob-lems, left unaddressed, can become the “mother knot” problem in no time and in turn, will need to be broken down so that issues can be resolved. To tackle the prob- lems in life, a step-by-step plan should be initiated with set tasks and goals and then taking manageable avenues to get there. Be a solutionist, a person who solves problems in a practical way. In order to have a happier life with fewer problems, try to live with a more optimistic attitude, think more positively, maybe change the way you look at things in life, and live more in the present. Too many problems, too much stress, feeling overwhelmed, can’t deal with them, please call or make an appointment with a counselor or mental health professional. Don’t become a wicked mess. Maybe I’m not too bad at geometry after all. BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT The BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT- An AFFORDABLE marketing choice!

Students saw an emphasis on safety, the size of the fa-cilities, the variety of jobs, the educational require-ments, and the machinery used in daily operations.“As a school district, it is our responsibility to make students aware of all educa-tional and employment op-portunities, and this collab-orative effort is an excellent means to familiarize our students with the diverse careers available in Davie County,” said Anthony Da-vis, director of CTE and federal programs for Da-vie High. “Manufacturing Day was also a wonderful learning experience for our middle school teachers who saw first-hand the practical application of the skills they teach in the classroom.” Business and industry participants appreciated the chance to showcase their fa-cilities and the careers they have to offer to this future workforce. This is the fifth year that Davie County has par-ticipated in Manufacturing Day, and McManamy is pleased with the great feed-back she consistently re-ceives from businesses, stu-dents, and teachers. She and Davis appreciate everyone who helped make Manufac-turing Day a success. “Aligning business needs with curriculum will ensure Davie County has a ready and able workforce to meet the challenges of businesses today and in the future,” she said.Davie County Schools’ commitment to comprehen-sive career exploration ex-tends beyond Manufactur-ing Day, targeting students from fifth grade onward with grade-appropriate ex-posure inside and outside the classroom. Last spring, fifth and sixth graders attended Ca-reers on Wheels at the Davie County Community Park. Twenty-two local organi-zations brought vehicles for students to explore and answered questions about their professions.

All sixth graders will have the opportunity to ex-plore a variety of technical careers like automation and robotics, biomanufacturing, mechanics, drafting, com-puter programming, weld-ing, and construction. These students will also participate in mini-activities with the teachers and stu-dents in the high school’s Career and Technical Edu-cation (CTE) department to learn more about the pro-grams and classes that will be available to them. Last year, eighth grad-ers toured the high school, early college, and both cam-puses of DDCC with their guidance counselors.

Last year, Davie County Schools added a middle school ca-reer development coordina-tor to offer additional career exposure opportunities for younger students. All fifth through eighth graders par-ticipate in a grade-targeted career lesson with Stepha-nie Morris each quarter. She said career explora-tion in fifth and sixth grade focuses on awareness, such as what a career is, how people choose jobs, work environments, and skills. Sixth graders take their first personality assessment and discuss careers that match their skills and inter-ests. Seventh and eighth grade revolves around exploring particular careers and build-ing skills. Eighth graders also pre-pare to enter high school and learn about the high school, early college, course options, career pathways, and IGNITE DAVIE Col-lege Promise.Davis said by the time students get to high school, they often have an idea of their direction. “Unless we can get in front of them in late el-ementary or middle school, we miss the opportunity to expose them to the many different career options available.” Morris added: “At the middle school level, we aim to ensure all kids succeed. We want to reach those kids who don’t know what they want to do and are at risk of dropping out and find that one thing that will hold them in school so they can graduate and have a suc-cessful future.“In middle school, every-one may want to be a vet-erinarian or a TikTok star,” Davis said with a chuckle, “but we want to encourage them to have a backup plan. We want to inform them of what is available in our region, specifically Davie County. There are so many opportunities for a solid ca-reer here.“Our main goal is never to discourage students from doing anything but rather to make them aware of all of their options.

Manager’s Corner Planning for Mocksville’s Future Thomas Jefferson once said that, “Good fortune is what happens when opportunity meets with planning.”This is why the Town has invested time, resources and talent this budget year so we will be well prepared for the opportunities ahead. We are examining infrastructure, equipment, personnel, facility and service delivery levels to determine where we need to strategically invest limited resources. The data and conclusions produced from the studies currently in process will inform our Strategic Plan, Capital Improvement Plan, Succession Plan and annual budget for years to come. The Asset Inventory and Assessment studies for our water and sewer systems are providing a wealth of planning information at no cost to the Town. The $400,000 we secured in state funding has enabled us to study the feasibility of new water meter technology, cross connections and system modeling for the new regional water treatment plant in Cooleemee (Online in 2026), designing system development fees to offset the costs of development that impact our water & sewer system, updating GPS driven system maps and evaluating the age and condition of all water & sewer system components, just to name a few. The Town is also conducting a fire needs study with the assistance of regionally recognized emergency response professionals to determine staffing, facility, equipment and apparatus needs for the next five years. Mocksville continues to grow with more commercial businesses, over 2 million sqft of new planned industrial space and in excess of 700 single family homes expected moving forward. MFD must be ready to meet the challenges this growth will continue to bring. Finally, we are working with an engineering firm to assign a numerical ranking for all streets and sidewalks maintained by the Town based on their condition and use this ranking to develop a well thought out paving and repair plan. This will help the Board to make informed decisions about annual funding needed to effectively manage this essential infrastructure. All of this information will guide and inform the decisions made in this budget year and future years. The Board of Commissioners will be hearing about many of these needs during our annual budget retreat on Saturday February 10th from 8:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at Davidson-Davie Community College (1205 S. Salisbury Street, Mocksville). This meeting is open to the public and we encourage our residents to attend. The retreat will provide a wealth of information for the Board of Commissioners including current and future economic development trends, revenue projections and recommended capital improvements. The Board will receive updates to the Objectives, Goals and Action Items tied to the Strategic Plan and hear directly from Department Heads regarding needs for FY2024- 25. Staff will also brief the Board on recruitment and retention strategies to attract and keep the best Town employees. The morning presentations will be followed by a hands on tour at MFD Station 22 (335 Sanford Avenue) and Public Works (Behind Station 22). This is only one of the public meetings in the FY2024-25 budget process. The budget will be discussed at our regular monthly Board of Commissioner meetings on February 6th (Non-Profit Presentations), March 5th (1st Draft and Department Head Requests), April 2nd (2nd Draft and Adjustments & Corrections), May 7th (Proposed Budget & Manager’s Message) and June 4th (Public Hearing / Adoption of Budget Ordinance). We encourage the public to attend all of these meetings to learn more about what your government does in the community. I wish you and your families a happy, prosperous and fulfilling 2024.

Where has the year gone? It is almost 2024! Is it just me, or does it feel like time seems to go by faster as we get older? Looking back over 2023...Mocksville has had a great year. We partnered with Davie County, Bermuda Run and Cooleemee in late 2022 to develop an application for All America. We were selected as a finalist in March 2023 and competed in Denver, Colorado in June. Our team brought home one of only 10 All America designations awarded. Everyone in Davie County can be proud of this achievement! The long-awaited roundabout at Miller’s Restaurant was also finally completed. The majority of social media posts and comments I heard about Mocksville over the last several months of 2023 focused on this project. While the work took longer than expected, there is no doubt that the roundabout has improved both the safety and appearance of this intersection. Just remember to always turn right and you don’t have to wait until the circle is completely clear to enter...you just have to yield to cars in the circle. This addition to our road system will take some getting used to, but will help traffic flow safely and efficiently through this area for many years to come. The roundabout is not the only improvement Mocksville has seen lately. The old Sagebrush building was recently demolished to make way for a Cook Out restaurant. This site has been an eyesore for some time and I am sure our residents are glad to see this positive step towards redeveloping the property. I know our residents are sometimes frustrated when the businesses and restaurants they think should locate in town don’t take the opportunity. This is because development is driven by the private sector and investment of a developer’s or business’s money. Before any investment is made they study demographics, traffic flow and many other variables to determine if their investment will pay off. While everyone has clear ideas of what they would like to see come to town, this only happens when the private sector decides to risk their money to make it happen. Mocksville has come a long way in the last 20 years and our residents have many more dining choices than in the past. In the meantime we need to support all of our local restaurants if we want new ones to come here. This means taking fewer trips “across the river” and keeping the great restaurants we all know and love open. This will ensure the success of current establishments and promote the construction of more eating venues throughout town. If you haven’t been by Mocksville Town Hall lately, there are several new faces. Beth Thompson and Tami Langdon both retired in Fall 2023 and they will be missed. Jennifer Evens has taken over Tami’s duties in Community Development and her new assistant, Renee Bradford is busy breathing new life into our social media activities. They have already been hard at work organizing the Bed Races, Mocksville Christmas Parade and other holiday events. We have also hired Amber Barnhardt in the Accounts Payable department to replace Beth. Please stop by and introduce yourself to them if you get a chance. I look forward to 2024 and serving the town citizens as your Mayor. Town Manager Ken Gamble and the Town Commissioners are also working hard to make our town the best it can be. We are all truly blessed to live in such a fantastic town! Happy Holidays! William J.

Inside a sewer, fats, oils and grease change to a plaster-like consistency and can block the pipes, causing an overflow of untreated wastewater. At home, you can dispose of normal cooking oil and grease by putting it in a container as part of your solid waste rather than through your sink and plumbing drain. Wiping and scraping pots, pans and other utensils before washing them are important steps in proper grease disposal. If your business generates waste grease, fats or oil, you should have a grease interception system that works effectively. A company that recycles fats, oils and grease should regularly clean out the grease trap. Burning is not permitted inside the town limits. The Town of Mocksville Code of Ordinances states that it shall be unlawful to burn or set fire to or bury any garbage or any other debris. NO BURNING ALLOWED INSIDE THE CITY LIMITS You can now go ONLINE to Rent a Shelter at Rich Park at — www.mocksvillenc.org The application form and your fee must be submitted to make a reservation. Please review the Reservation Calendar prior to completing the form to see whether your date and time are available. You may also contact the Mocksville Town Hall at 336-753-6700 RICH PARK SHELTER RENTALPublic Works Department offers the following precautions to help you keep the water flowing this winter. Insulate pipes or faucets in unheated areas. Pipes in unheated garages, crawl spaces, under the house, or in the attic should be wrapped with insulation before cold weather arrives. Seal access doors, air vents and cracks. Close openings where winter winds could blow over exposed pipes. Do not obstruct air vents needed by your furnace or water heater for proper combustion. Locate your meter shut off valves. If a pipe bursts anywhere in your house, use the master shutoff valve to stop the water supply. Take special precautions when temperatures are low. Leave sink cabinet doors open when temperatures drop. If you are away for several days, leave the heat on in your house while you are away. Disconnect and drain outdoor hoses. This allows water to drain and prevents the faucet or hose from bursting during a hard freeze. This is also true for backflow prevention assemblies (BPA’s). Make sure all BPA’s are properly insulated to protect them from cold air.

That final per-formance of 2023 was at Somerset Court of Mocksville. From a young age, Brewer began playing the piano by ear. She took pia-no lessons, but the teacher was so frustrated because Brewer wanted to play the songs her own way, not by the notes printed on the paper. Her parents bought her a beautiful piano, which she played on for the ma-jority of her life, and when Senior Services reopened after the COVID-19 pandemic in July of 2021, Brewer donated that same piano to the new practice space for the Singing Seniors chorus. She started in the Davie County Singing Seniors in January of 2003 when the chorus still met at the Senior Services’ original location in the Brock building. Brewer is known for her spunky disposition and great laugh, in ad-dition to her wonderful piano skills that brought so much joy to everyone who happened to hear her play.During her time with the Singing Seniors, she has played on f stages including Junker’s Mill, nursing homes, the senior center, churches, funeral homes, in homes during the Singing Telegrams, and even the Legion Cem-etery in Cooleemee for Heritage Day for Coolee-mee Elementary students. TheSinging Seniors Chorus and Davie County Senior Services appreciates her many years of volunteer-ing.To learn more about joining the Singing Seniors Chorus, call 336-753-6230. Nancy Brewer faces the Davie County Singing Seniors earlier this month at her final performance after 20 years as the vol- unteer pianist. Nancy Brewer plays with the Singing Seniors on the stage at the old picnic grounds arbor in 2003 and on the street in Down- town Mocksville in 2004. At right, she enjoys time at the piano with her grandson. Brewer plays for a rehearsal at the senior center, and during the holidays at a performance in 2006. She has company for a 2012 performance at a local nursing home. At right, she plays for a holiday performance at the senior center in 2008. Nancy Brewer and the Davie County Singing Seniors in 2008.

Serving Winston-Salem, Clemmons, and Surrounding Areas 12 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 28, 2023 Bless Your Spoon By Stephanie Williams Dean An Edenton Dining Table from the Chow- an River Basin and Moravian Fish Bottle from Salem, NC. Sandy Czuba, Regent for the Eliza- beth Maxwell Steele Chapter, NS- DAR in Salisbury, with the two-tiered fresh lemon cake she made for the commemoration of the chapter’s 125th anniversary. The tiered tea stand holds an assortment of dainties including Cheese Wafers, Chicken Salad Fingers, Cream Cheese with Raspberry Bites, and more. DAR members dressed in period clothing serve tea pastries and Hot Cranberry Tea. Dec. 25 is the day Christians commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ, the son of God. Many special celebrations take place leading up to Christmas. One such occasion was held in the Messinger room of the Rowan Museum. The Elizabeth Maxwell Steele Chapter (EMS) of the North Caro-lina State Society, part of the Na-tional Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR) recently held its an-nual Christmas Tea. The event also commemorated the chapter’s 125th anniversary – as one of the oldest chapters in DAR. But there was more to be cele-brated – the day embodied the hol-iday spirit of giving. While sipping on hot cranberry tea, members listened while guest, NC State Re-gent, Anna Choi, highlighted how the funding of her State Regent’s project had represented our state. Among several meaningful proj-ects, one that grabbed my attention was Ms. Choi’s establishment of a collections acquisition fund for the DAR Museum in Washington, DC. The museum col-lection contains nearly 20,000 decorative arts objects that represent the American home and domestic life in the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries. I'm all about museums and history – so it meant a lot to me to have NC’s role in the early years of our nation represented in the collection. The museum has specific re-quirements for acquisitions – and now with funding, genu-ine NC items reflecting NC’s contribution to the cause for independence can be purchased.Made all more special was that Ms. Choi selected two items that represent NC – both in art and in historical sig-nificance. But more specifically, I loved the fact that the two NC treasures purchased were associated with food – the one thing that brings all of us folks together. Sharing a meal is the most communal thing we can do – and that’s universal. The acquisition fund helped curators purchase a highly collectible and iconic, Southern folk art piece – one made by the Moravian potters of Salem, NC. The early piece of American ceramics, (1801-1820) was Moravian earthen-ware – a green-glazed, molded flask in the form of a fish – called a fish bottle. These bottles – made in three sizes – were often used to carry liquids. It’s fun to imagine how the flask might have been used. Might one of the ladies have carried a bit of “spirit” or giggle juice to spike the punch? The second acquisition that touched my heart was the purchase of an Edenton Dining Table (1770-1790) – one attributed to the Edenton school of cabinetmakers from around the Chowan River Basin in NC. Made from solid walnut and yellow pine, the square drop leaf dining table featured straight taper-turned legs with pad feet. A glimpse into the past might reveal a family gathered around that dining table for a holiday feast of homegrown vegetables, fire-roasted turkey, or some trout. The acquisition fund project was truly a commemora-tion of the past and the embodiment of the spirit of giving – through personal service and donations. The scripture found on Ms. Choi’s DAR website page is taken from the book 2 Chronicles, verse 15:7, and reads, “But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.” My wish for you this holiday season is to let this scrip-ture encourage you to not feel disappointed. Whether your good works are acknowledged here on earth or you receive personal recognition in your life to come – just keep the faith that you will receive your reward. Merry Christmas and best wishes for a Happy New Year!

In Davie’s eighth win against zero defeats, the senior point guard was surgical. He was John Stockton. He was making sure when people talk about the finest assist men ever at Davie, it will be impossible to not have him in the conversation. Lawhon racked up 15 assists. Please See Assists - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Mallard Creek features one of the finest wrestlers in state history, but the Mavericks as a whole were no match for the War Eagles, who dismantled the visitors 58-13 on Dec. 19. It was a happy Christmas as Davie improved to 14-1 with its fifth win in a row. “They have a tough team, but we matched up well in a lot of places,” coach Josh Stanley said. “The score was maybe not what even we expected, but I think we’re developing at the right time. When the ball started rolling ... we weren’t sure it would go down quite like that. Yeah, it was an exciting night.”Eight pins were produced by Aidan Szewczyk (113), Cayden Glass (120), Andy Davis (138), Brett Foster (144), Maddox Crea-son in 2nd (165), Hunter Testa (175), Christian Boswell (190) and Brysen Godbey (215). Testa (19-0) got six points as usual. Two others remained perfect on the season: Szewczyk (15-0) and Glass (19-0). Szewczyk is a freshman with 12 pins, two forfeits and a major decision. “He’s surrounded by guys who are at the level that he wants to get to, and he’s not one that’s going to sit back,” Stanley said. “He’s got goals for now and for the future. He’s doing what he’s got to do to make weight for the team and for his long-term goals. He’s doing some weight-cutting to make sure he’s successful and at the right weight to produce now.”Among Glass’ 19 wins are 13 pins/forfeits. “He’s committed all the way around,” Stanley said of the junior. “His family is committed and that is a big part of it. He’s got to do the right thing diet-wise and social life. It’s a lot for a kid to balance and he does it well. We’re excited to see where he takes the run that he’s on.”Showing clear progress, Crea-son broke into the lineup and bumped his sophomore record to 7-4. This was his first match at 165 after going battling 10 times at 175. “Maddox finally got to his fighting weight,” Stanley said. “Him and Jerred (Alexander) have been pushing each other, and Maddox is developing really fast and he broke into the lineup. He got tested; he had a tough guy. He threw a big lateral drop, threw the guy to his back and pinned him - and the place went nuts. That’s what it’s about.”When Creason got ready to execute the lateral drop, Stanley’s heart skipped a beat. “You could hear guys on our bench saying: ‘Do it, do it.’ And the coaches were like: ‘No, no.’ Then it was like: ‘OK,’” he said. “You never know with a throw like that. In that situation it worked. You are chest to chest. If they are pushing into you, you always risk going to your back. You’ve got to have good technique and set it up right. In a match that you are win-ning, it’s scary. We want them to go get it and us having to reel them in versus being to timid.”No Davie winner was more gritty than heavyweight Ryder Strickland, who squeaked out a 4-1 decision. “That kid (from Mallard Creek) was a tank,” Stanley said. “He had a lot of leverage and height. You know how those matches go, it’s tough to get something cooking sometimes. We’re throwing a lot at Ryder and he’s still trying to develop and find out what he’s real confident in.”The other two winners were Stephen Jacobs (major decision at 106) and Elliott Gould (decision at 150). But perhaps the most impres-sive showing of all, ironically enough, was Tiaj Thao’s 11-7 loss at 126. The Davie sophomore squared off with the phenomenal Cameron Stinson, a senior who is a three-time state champion and a Tar Heel commitment. Thao showed guts in his second loss in 20 matches. Stinson was 29-0 through Dec. 20, last year he went 66-0 at 120 and he’s 174-0 in his high school career. That’s insane. You’ve got to respect an 11-7 decision when you face somebody of that caliber.

The War Eagles, who shot the ball superbly in a 72-45 rout of East in the conference opener, struggled mightily on both ends of the court in a 70-51 loss to the Cougars. The War Eagles kept the first meeting on Dec. 8 reasonably close before falling 55-44, but they saw how difficult it can be to match up with high-flying Central when it’s clicking on all cylinders. Avarie Martin drilled a 3-point-er to give Davie an early 4-3 lead, but the Cougars scored the next 13 points. They made 12 of 22 field goals, including 4 of 8 treys, while building a 33-15 halftime lead.

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.(2 Corinthians 5:17) DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 28, 2023 ‑ B3 One of the Christmas presents I most remember pulling out from under the tree and unwrapping was one that really wasn’t a sur-prise.It was 1969, I had turned 13 about six weeks earli-er, and later on Christmas morning, my father and I would get on a Braniff 727 at Dulles Airport and jet to Houston to spend a week duck-hunting with my un-cle on several of southeast Texas’s finest rice planta-tions – public and private.The only problem? I didn’t have a shotgun. The birds and squirrels I had killed up to that time had fallen to my grand-mother’s side-by-side 20-gauge Fox shotgun. There was no way we were going to Georgia to pick it up on the way to Texas.That’s why the long, thin package under the tree was something I pretty much expected. When the wrapping paper came off, I was holding a shiny, new Savage 20-gauge side-by-side, bored full/modified, with 3-inch chambers so I would not be at a disad-vantage when black ducks, mallards and widgeon start-ed strafing out little make- shift blinds out around the waterholes out in the rice stubble.I killed several ducks that next week, and I killed a 4-foot western diamond-back rattlesnake that was sunning along the path from our boat to a blind on the gulf side of a barrier is-land south of Galveston.Plenty of North Caro-lina boys expected their first firearm under the tree. They probably won’t start out shooting at decoying ducks, and most of the fire-arms might wind up .22 ri-fles – if they’ve graduated up from BB or pellet guns. With any luck, they’ll have a hunter-safety certificate already in hand before they push the safety off for the first time and snuggle that index finger into the space in between the trigger guard and the trigger. It was literally years be-fore anybody gave me any shooting instruction beyond taking my time, squeezing the trigger – not pulling it – and not stopping the swing of my shotgun when things looked right for the pel-lets to intercept a speeding dove. I wasn’t really pro-ficient at rifle-shooting or wing-shooting until a much The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission will hold monthly target-shooting challenges at six of its shooting ranges around the state in 2024. - Photo by Jonathon Gruenke, NCWRC Remembering that first long, slim package under the tree older age – which caused undue embarrassment on a number of occasions.Thinking about that long-ago Christmas present – which occupies a spot in my son’s gun cabinet, wait-ing for the grandson to get big enough to use it – gave me mind to something the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission is doing to promote shooting in 2024.The commission is intro-ducing a 12-month, themed target shooting challenge, the “Top Shot Challenge” at six of the commission’s shooting ranges around the state. Challenges will change on a monthly basis, with rifles, handguns and .22 rifles being the three competitive categories. Shooters can try the challenge once a day until they complete it; they’ll re-ceive a themed patch when they master it.The commission ran a pilot program this year at the John Lentz Hunt-er Education Complex near Ellerbe in Richmond County. The December challenge was the “Tannen-baum Challenge,” featuring Christmas ornament targets shot at 100 yards with a .22 rifle, 18 shots to hit all 10 targets.“We’ve seen a sense of camaraderie,” said Noah Secrist, who manages Lentz. “We have every lev-el of experience, from peo-ple new to target shooting to old pros at the sport.” By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Things were coming easy for the Davie JV boys bas-ketball team. They rolled to victories by 37, 27 and 24 points. They were 6-0 after traveling to North Iredell on Dec. 12. But they have come crashing back to earth. After back-to-back losses, coach Tracey Arnold is looking for some recalibration over Christmas break. “We’re just a young team and we don’t know how to put close games away yet,” Arnold said. Davie 61, N. Iredell 52One player from North Iredell went crazy in the fourth quarter to cut into the final margin, but Davie actu-ally won this nonconference road game on Dec. 12 with little drama. Brady Vallance, CJ Cole-man and Aiden Horton were driving forces during a 21-9 run in the second quarter that resulted in a 30-22 halftime lead. Jake Runge scored seven of 19 points in the third, when the margin swelled to 49-30. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record After digging a 16-8 hole in the first half, after trailing by seven at the end of the third quarter, the Davie JV girls basketball team showed a ton of fight in an eventual 30-26 road loss to North Iredell on Dec. 12. Britany Hernandez’s 18-foot shot tied the game at 25, and Vivian Vaughters’ free throw provided a 26-25 lead with 36 seconds remain-ing. The Raiders, though, retook the lead at 27-26. Davie missed at the other end and North took off on a fast break. Before Davie could foul, a Raider pulled up and buried a 3-pointer at :08, putting the game out Ratledge scores 19 for JV girls of reach. “If Vivian gets there a second earlier, that ball is probably going to be in the stands,” coach Lamar Rus-sell said. Davie had a chance to steal the game thanks to Vaughters’ seven-point fourth. It was the only quar-ter she played because of the five-quarter rule; she also plays a backup role on the varsity squad. “We get Vivian for one quarter because of the five-quarter rule,” Russell said. “Vivian is a game-changer. The other girls managed the game long enough to give Vivian a chance to come in and provide a spark. It was like a domino effect (when she entered the game). My assis-tants told me that we need to put Vivian at the high post, and that is what we needed. Vivian got an and-one, then she forced a turnover at the other end. So our team was rejuvenated.”Maddie Ratledge paced the War Eagles with nine points, followed by Vaugh-ters with seven, Hernandez with six, Kate Nicholson with three and Zahmirah Summers with one. “Britany and Maddie kept us afloat (in the first three quarters),” Russell said. “Kate was not afraid to shoot it, and (her 3-pointer) was gorgeous.”Davie 25, EF 24The first Central Pied-mont Conference game was another tightly contested scrap, but this time Davie walked away victorious. After a 10-10 first half against visiting East Forsyth on Dec. 15, Davie surged to a 19-13 lead by the end of the third. That’s when Ratledge came up big again, scoring six of her team-high 16 points in the quarter. “Maddie seems to always step up and do things when I need her to,” Russell said. The War Eagles lost the lead in the fourth but re-covered to curb a two-game slide. Hernandez (seven) and Summers (two) had the other nine points, and Nicholson “stepped up and did the dirty work,” Russell said. But another differ- ence-maker was Jaylene Rivera. Russell heaped enormous praise on the first-year sophomore. “Jaylene did not score, but she played awesome,” he said. “She did everything I needed her to do. Without her defense, we would’ve lost this game. She was all over the floor. This is her first year playing basketball, but she’s getting a lot better. I’m telling you, without Jaylene’s defense, we lose the game. I can’t say enough about the way she played.”AC 66, Davie 32In a nonconference game at Alexander Central on Dec. 19, Davie simply ran into a buzzsaw. The undefeated Cougars (9-0) romped to their fourth win by 30-plus points, beat Da-vie (2-4) for the second time in 11 days and dealt the War Eagles their worst defeat of the season. The bright spot was Rat-ledge, who accounted for 13 of Davie’s 15 points in the first half. She finished with 19 to match a season high. Hernandez (11) cracked double figures for the second time, and Summers had two. “Not only was I impressed with Maddie - I’m always impressed with Maddie’s skills - but the Alexander Central coach was also very impressed with her,” Russell said. “They tried to keep the ball out of her hands, but she found a way to get the ball and found a way to get to the basket.” JV boys reeling from two losses “North shoots a lot of 3-pointers,” Arnold said. “They would rather shoot the 3 than the 2. They made some shots early, but then we settled in.”Vallance led the way with 17 points. Coleman had 13, Ben Reid 11, Horton 9, Run-ge 9 and Jayden Warren 2. “Brady had another good game,” Arnold said. “He is starting to find his groove, and he is starting to run a team real good. CJ had another good game. Aiden played real good. He played good defense. He is starting to come on. It seems like every game, I’ve got some-body different finding their groove.”One guy from North out-scored Davie’s entire team in the fourth. He caught fire and had 14 in the quarter, although his burst did not alter the bottom line. “They had a guy get hot in the fourth quarter,” Ar-nold said. “He was making everything like he was Steph Curry. He was shooting from everywhere and they were going in.”EF 55, Davie 51The positive vibes dis-sipated in the first Central Piedmont Conference game on Dec. 15. Visiting East Forsyth built a nine-point halftime lead and held on to hand Davie its first loss. “They were by far the most athletic team that we’ve seen,” Arnold said. “They were real aggressive and real athletic, and that kind of threw us offguard. I guess we were not ready for the physicality.”Despite facing their big-gest challenge of the season, the War Eagles had every chance to pull it out. But they suffered self-inflicted wounds all game. “I bet we had 16 or 17 turnovers in the first half, and that led to a lot of their points,” Arnold said of the 25-16 halftime deficit. Davie closed within 37-33 in the third, but it couldn’t get over the hump in the fourth. “We had more multi-ple chances,” he said. “We got within two a couple of times. We got back in it and had chance after chance, and we either missed a chippy or threw the ball away when we had numbers or turned the ball over on inbound plays. Every time we had a chance to take control of the game or get back in the game, we missed a layup or a free throw or made a turnover.”Coleman hit 8 of 10 foul shots and scored a sea-son-high 22. Runge nailed three treys and scored 15. Reid had 9, George Sakai 3 and Vallance 2. AC 46, Davie 44After leading by eight at halftime in a nonconference road game on Dec. 19, the War Eagles fell in the most painful possible fashion. Runge popped a pair of 3s in the first quarter and Davie had a 10-9 lead over Alexander Central. Reid’s nine-point second lifted Davie to a 26-18 halftime lead. The War Eagles got outscored in the third, but they still had a 34-29 advan-tage heading into the fourth. The meltdown began after Davie took a 44-40 lead. Central scored and called timeout. The Cougars trapped a War Eagle the mo-ment he caught the inbounds pass, forced a turnover and put in a layup to tie the game at 44. Davie brought the ball across halfcourt, but the ball handler was immediately trapped. Central stole a pass and flew to the other end for an uncontested layup just before the final horn. You can see the pain there. “Ben got a block (before Central cut Davie’s lead to 44-42), but they found a way to get the rebound and tipped it in,” Arnold said. “That’s what led to (Central’s comeback). I told them we’ve got three timeouts left and if we get in trouble, take a timeout. We go out and turn the ball over. (Before the last turnover), I was trying to get a timeout. I was screaming and hol-lering timeout. When I saw we picked up the dribble at halfcourt, I immediately started calling timeout be-cause I could already see it unfolding. That’s a tough way to lose.”Coleman (12) hit double figures for the sixth time, and Reid (11) scored 10 or more for the seventh time. Runge had 8, Vallance 7, Horton 5 and Colson Sink 1. “Ben had a lot of blocks,” Arnold said. “He played one of his better defensive games.”But now the reeling War Eagles will try to get through a learning curve. “We’ve got a lot of fresh-man and a lot of sophomores who did not play a lot last year, so this is their first time with their feet to the fire,” he said. “And they have not handled it well the last two games, so it’s growing pains.” Old Fashion Service with Modern Technology Stephen Beatty Owner (NC-Lim EC) Licensed and Insured (336) 940-8196 Advance, NC Vintage Electrical Services Residential or Commercial Electrician Services from Generator Installs to EV Charging to Service Upgrades or Kitchen and Bath Remodels.

B4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 28, 2023 Continued From Page B1What’s even crazier is he had zero turnovers to go with the epic number of assists. “Sometimes I just sit back and watch him go because it’s great to see him play with that level of confidence,” coach Josh Pittman said. “When he does that, it’s gonna be hard for anybody, not just Alexander Central. He did a job tonight. I’ve seen flashes over and over again, but to completely abandon looking for points and just look for assists and make the right read and give it up - that shows maturation to me.”After the Cougars (5-6) took a quick 6-0 lead, Lawhon began to demon-strate his huge playmaking abilities. His steal led to a Bryson Mickey layup and triggered a 30-10 run. Law-hon stole a pass, accelerated on a fast break and fed Gavin Williams for a layup. Lawhon drove and dished to Ethan Ratledge for two. Lawhon assisted a Williams 3-pointer. Lawhon snatched a defensive board, pushed the ball down the floor and hit Powers for two. Williams scored inside on a pass from Lawhon. After Lawhon de-flected a pass, Ethan Driver finished a break. Ratledge scored off an inbounds pass from Lawhon. Lawhon was responsible for all but four of Davie’s assists. As if the 15 and zero numbers weren’t enough, he had five rebounds and four steals. “I think Coleman is a next-level guard, it’s just about somebody giving him Assists ... Continued From Page B1“(Stinson) tries the tech fall everybody he wrestles just to get work in,” Stan-ley said. “He will probably go down as one of the best to come out of North Car-olina. He has not lost in North Carolina, and (Thao) had a good scrap with him. He was scoring points and getting after him. That blew the top off the place. Cam loved the fact that he was getting pushed, he needs to see matches. I think a lot of guys are trying to avoid those situations to protect their record because our whole postseason is based on records, unfortunately. So it makes it tough to get those matches. It’s the same thing we see with Testa.”Other top records for Da-vie: Godbey is 22-2, Foster 22-2, Strickland 21-1, Davis 19-1 and Jacobs 13-2. Girls WinHannah McMillian and Arwyn Brungardt turned in first-period pins as the Da-vie women topped Mallard Creek 24-18. McMillian is a first-year senior at 126 who has made enormous strides in a short amount of time. “In just a month, how much she has improved is crazy,” Stan-ley said. “She’s one of the captains and it’s because of the way she approaches it and the way she handles the group. She’s got an unas-suming demeanor. You don’t know what to expect and then she will get after you.”Brungardt, a junior at 132, has been Davie’s most consistent winner this sea-son. “Arwyn and Hannah set the tone for our girls squad,” Stanley said. “Arwyn’s do-ing good. She had a lot of confidence coming into the year and having a girls team behind her this year has been big. You can tell she’s enjoying it.”A female wrestler to keep an eye on is freshman Kiera Hinson. “She’s a first-year girl, but she’s got her whole high school career in front of her,” he said. “She’s training outside of Davie at the club level. She’s going to be one to watch in the next year or so. She’s a soccer player, so she’s got that work ethic and athleticism. She’s still learning how to wrestle. It’s not as easy when you’re at a lower weight class because there’s nobody for you to learn from and beat up on.”Davie got forfeits at 100 and 138. The Mavericks had two pins and one for-feit. There were five double forfeits. an opportunity,” Pittman said. “After working for the the last year and a half or two years, it is starting to show.”Central clawed back to 36-30, but the War Eagles did not flinch. They respond-ed with a 25-10 run. Mickey was awesome during this stretch. The junior guard banged three straight 3s in the third, and early in the fourth, he drained another one. (A couple of them were from the parking lot.) The first three triples were assist-ed by (who else?) Lawhon. In the fourth, Lawhon as-sisted back-to-back buckets by Elliott Erlandsson. Then he fed Ratledge on the low block for two. Davie carved up Central after needing a huge fourth-quarter rally to win the Dec. 8 meeting 62-53. “It is lovely to see the whole team buying in and playing for each other and cheering for each other,” Pittman said. “Just like they say, family over everything so that family can overcome everything.”Davie shot 52 percent overall (27 of 51, including 7 of 20 from 3). Central couldn’t keep up as it shot 36 percent (17-47). “We were better with our shot selection,” Pittman said. “We took our time instead of forcing. We em-phasized that the one-pass 3 would always be there. We emphasized penetrate and kick, move the ball around and be deliberate. We did well scoring 68 points while playing against a zone the whole night.”By catching fire, Mickey led with 19 points on 4-of- 7 shooting from deep. He went 5-5 from the foul line and made three steals. It was business as usual for big man Jackson Powers, who put up his fourth dou-ble-double (14 points, 10 rebounds). Williams (11 points, 5-of-7 shooting), Ratledge (10 points, 5-6 FGs, six rebounds) and Erlandsson (seven points, 3-4 FGs) were opportunistic contributors. Lawhon had three points, while Cam Owens and Driv-er had two each. “(Ratledge) has been shooting lights out the last few games,” Pittman said. “Coming in he was shooting 59 percent, and that went up even more.”Pittman could not ask for better balance. Mickey is averaging 14 points, fol-lowed by Powers at 13.8, Lawhon at 9.6, Ratledge at 9.2 and Williams at 8.5. Davie has nothing but good feelings as it heads into the Ledford Christmas Classic tournament. “If they believe in what they can do, the sky is the limit,” he said. Dismantle ...

The Cougars were hot all game, going 24 of 46 (52 percent) and nailing 9 of 17 from 3-point range. By contrast, Davie shot just 30 percent (13 of 42), although it was not bad from distance (7 of 20). Central (11-0) looked like the dominant force that its record suggests. It has pounded people 59-39 on average, and this marked its eighth victory by double figures. Madison Daugherty led Davie with 14 points, including four 3s. The freshman has made nine triples across two games. Bailey Aderhold had 11 points and two assists.

Sink went 2-0 at 182 in the tournament to close his overall record at 15-1. Even his one loss was a forgivable one. “His only loss was when I bumped him up to 195 to get him a match against Mooresville,” Compton said. “Finn was actually undefeated last year before he hurt his foot, and that put him out for the rest of the year. Finn and Carter went to App State for a wrestling camp. They put in all the work. Carter is not a typical eighth grader, and neither is Finn.”Allen Moxley did not go out as a conference champ - he finished second at 145 - but his eighth-grade season was still pretty special. He went 14-2. “I bumped him up against O’Toole to get a match,” Compton said of one of Moxley’s losses. “Obvious-ly O’Toole came out on top; he’s a tough kid.”Ellis had three run-ner-ups, including Daniel Hennessey (113) and Henry Butler (220).

The Jaguars finished with a modest 7-6 record, but they will have a chance to make quite a statement in 2024. “I’m only losing like five guys that were in the starting lineup,” Compton said. “Kids that stand out - guys like Henry Butler and Jackson (Strader) - they did not (finish first), but we’re in a tough conference.”The Davie teams finished fifth, sixth and seventh in the tournament. The team points: China Grove 172, Erwin 171, West Rowan 169, Mooresville 139.5, North Davie 137.5, Ellis 121, South Davie 104.5, Southeast 88, Corriher-Lipe 63, Selma Burke 26, North Rowan 18.

The Lady War Eagles romped with 153 points to East’s 55 and Parkland’s 15. These lopsided scores came on the heels of victo-ries over Oak Grove in the season opener and North Davidson in the second meet. Individually, the Davie boys featured three double winners: Logan Zuleger (200 IM at 2:29.89, 100 free at 58.23), Zach Hirata (50 free at 23.23, 100 breast at 1:11.17) and Earnhardt Har-ris (100 butterfly at 52.67, 100 back at 56.01).

B6 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 21, 2023 By Meredith RatledgeWord Master Media Group The IGNITE DAVIE College Promise program (ID) is making a difference for local students, allowing them to aim for higher edu-cation and careers. Antonia Montano and Hannah Morgan complet-ed their dental assistant training through ID at Da-vidson-Davie Community College (DDCC) and were quickly hired by Dr. An-drew Rivers at Rivers Fam-ily & Cosmetic Dentistry.Montano and Morgan learned about ID through their guidance counselors at Davie High. They were both excited about the idea of a full scholarship for an associate's degree, followed by the option to transfer to a four-year college.Morgan said: "I learned that I could get a full ride for an associate's degree, and I could transfer to a four-year college after that. I would just save a lot of money in the long run." Montano initially pur-sued nursing at DDCC but later discovered her passion for dental assisting. “I had started my pre-requisites for nursing, but I slowly realized I wasn’t passionate about it,” Mon-tano said. “I talked to my advisor at DDCC and told her I wanted to stay in the medical field, but I didn’t know what I wanted to do. She suggested dental assist-ing, so I just jumped into it and ended up enjoying the program.”They completed initial requirements and course-work, going through two clinical rotations—a crucial part of DDCC's dental as-sistant program. Montano recalled her first time in the clinic: "Once you walked into the clinical area, it was a feeling of ‘Oh, this is the real deal.’" Both valued the hands-on experience. "The pro-gram really readied us for wor," Montano said.She found her fit in den-tistry during the clinical practice. “I loved steriliza-tion. Preparing instruments and using the Autoclave ex-cited me.”Their rotations gave them practical knowledge. "We didn't just learn tasks; we understood why we did them," Morgan said. Rivers stressed the im-portance of staff under-standing the purpose be-hind procedures, not just how to do them.During their rotations, Montano worked at Riv-ers' office in Mocksville and Hillsdale Dental in Ad-vance, while Morgan start-ed at Mocksville Dentistry and later joined Dr. Rivers. They spoke highly of the program's commitment to placing students based on their interests in orthodon-tics or general dentistry.Montano praised DDCC instructors. "They keep working until you land a job." This commitment con-tinues post-graduation, with ongoing support for job placements.Their time at Rivers made a lasting impression. They praised the positive atmosphere, supportive team, and his teaching. Both emphasized his pa-tience and willingness to explain procedures.Hiring ID graduates was an easy decision for Dr. Rivers, who attested to the students' readiness and con-fidence after their 8-week rotations. “Students come in and work with me chair-side, learning the flow of the dental practice, working with the staff, the patients, myself. It’s a great program - you can do a didactic class and learn with books how to do something, but when you’re actually chairside with the doctor and patient, it’s incredible how much more you learn.” Based on their experienc-es during rotations, Morgan and Montano were hired a week after graduating.Becoming certified Den-tal Assistants 2 (DA2), Montano and Morgan can take X-rays, per-form coronal polishing, place sealants, and use a tofflemire—a device aiding in dental filings. Both emphasized the curriculum at DDCC, say-ing some local programs might only equip graduates with a DA1 certification.Looking ahead, both have ambitious plans to further their education by venturing into dental hy-giene careers. This next phase involves an addi- tional two to three years of schooling and licensure. As licensed hygienists, their roles would extend beyond assisting the dentist to in-clude administering dental care and teeth cleaning.Rivers conveyed his ad-miration for the caliber of students emerging from Some students were in-advertently not included in the Davie County Schools first quarter academic hon-or list, and are included here.Cooleemee ElementaryGrade 3: A Honor Roll, Aiden Grissom; A/B Hon-or Roll, Aubree Rombach, Jaquez Vanderburg, Paisley Wilson.

DDCC. “I’ve been very im-pressed with the quality of the students coming through this program. Not just their ability to learn, but their attitude and work ethic have always been im-pressive.” Rivers is awed at tID's impact. "I was awestruck when I heard about the ID program. I mean, what an amazing thing to have in this county that essentially any public school student can get a free college edu-cation and get plugged into the trade they would enjoy. I would think it has to be very beneficial to the econ-omy of this county." "It’s a great program. It’s good for employers, and it’s good for the students going through it. This seems like a nice symbiotic relation-ship where people can find good careers within their own community."

She realized there are a lot of great options for em-ployment in this area. On her last week of holiday break, Phyllis is visiting the remaining Employers of Choice.Phyllis was concerned about her eyesight after watching so many Christ-mas movies, so she started her visits with Dr. Chris Owens at Carolina Center for Eye Care. Dr. Owens examined her eyes. Philan-thropy Phyllis was right, she needed glasses. While being fitted she heard about the opportunities at Caroli-na Center for Eye Care that require various levels of training and education.While she was think-ing about medical related jobs, Phyllis went by Davie Medical Center. The kind staff gave her an annual exam to ensure she was ready for the new year. All of the staff was so kind.After her exam, Phyl-lis had the opportunity talked with Chad Brown, President of Davie Medi-cal Center.

Brandon James and Michael McGilvary were so kind to talk about invest-ments. They explained the importance of saving mon-ey now. The money Philanthro-py Phyllis saves while she participates in ID can be put away for future educational pursuits. Brandon showed her a graph of how much investments can grow over time. It made the point to Philanthropy Phyllis who committed to putting some-thing in her piggy bank ev-ery month.Next, Philanthropy Phyllis shifted gears as she headed to Scott Bader. She wanted to learn more about the employee-owned com-pany which invested $16 million in a new manufac-turing site in Mocksville. Phyllis learned that Scott Bader structural ad-hesives, resins, gelcoats and functional polymers are used by customers all over the world. One of their adhesives is even used in large marine structures. hilanthropy Phyllis thought the high-tech com-pany was impressive and was surprised to learn that products made in Mocks-ville are used all over the world. Phyllis made her last stop at REEB in Mocks-ville. She learned that REEB is part of Specialty Building Products which operates through six brands in the US and Canada. REEB offers more than door products. They stock a full complement of col-umns, hardware, jambs, brickmould, casing, and finishing options.

She realizes that she needs to use her time at Davidson-Davie Commu-nity College to figure out what her talents and inter-ests are. Phyllis wants to find the right job here at home. Phyllis would love to continue to live in Davie County, and working in the county would be a real bo-nus.Philanthropy Phyllis is thankful to ID for the op-portunity it offers Davie residents.
