Rising kindergarten students at Shady Grove Elementary take advantage of Kinder Camp, offered through the schools and the Mebane Foundation to make the first day of school a little less stressful. - Photos by Jeanna Baxter WhiteGetting ready for big school Kinder Camp helps relieve anxiety for youngest students tions and sings about the days of the week and months of the year. Shady Grove’s Kinder Camp is a sneak peek at what kindergar-ten mornings will be like in just a few weeks.“Kinder Camp provides stu-dents with the soft start needed to begin kindergarten successfully. By experiencing the structure and routines of an elementary school, they start the year with confi-dence. This confidence is vital in reducing the beginning of school jitters and allowing students to see they are kindergarteners,” said Shady Grove Principal Sarah Burns. Funded by a $25,000 grant from the Mebane Foundation, Kinder Camp is offered at all six Davie elementary schools. The program runs half a day for four days, and around 177 students are participating this summer.Shady Grove Elementary School offered three weeks of camp, with more than half of the school's 75 incoming kindergart-eners taking advantage of the op-portunity. Initially designed for students without preschool or daycare experience, Kinder Camp helps children adjust to group settings, classroom routines, and essen-tial social skills. Today, the camp welcomes all parents to sign up their children for the orientation to the school environment, in-cluding the classroom, centers, cafeteria, and playground.“Kinder Camp highlights all of the excitement and fun of kin-dergarten without the stress of the academics,” said Sharon Godbey, who has taught kindergarten at Shady Grove for 24 years and the camp for 17. “It helps students eliminate the nerves that can come with the first day of school. They already have a little practice and insight into what kindergarten will be like, and they get a chance to make friends with some of Please See Camp - Page 4 By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record Most of the people who go to A Storehouse for Jesus for medical care have jobs.But they don’t have health insurance.“It’s the working poor in most cases,” said Judy Rush, a mental health nurse.Dr. Roger McCauley, di-rector of psychiatry at Store-house, said about half of the working population has no health insurance.Because of this and other reasons, mental health issues are often present in these peo-ple. But getting them the care they need can be a challenge. Yes, that’s a chart of how the brain works that nurse Judy Rush and Dr. Roger McCauley are looking at while volunteering at A Storehouse for Jesus. - Photo by Mike Barnhardt The working poor Mental health issues often accompany Storehouse for Jesus clients For one thing, if an individual is on Medicare, they don’t quality for Storehouse medical services. Rush and McCauley are trying to get that changed because of the lack of local options for mental health patients, especially those who rely on Medicaid.See Storehouse - Page 7 By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record There’s a new school in Davie County.And it’s here for a reason: to help those students that the public school system can’t adequately provide for - those with multiple behaviorial issues.Frankie Vaughn, a founder of the new Westwood Village Learn-ing Center in Bermuda Run, took her plea to county commission-ers earlier this month. She didn’t ask for money, but for the board members to look for ways to reach all children.“Davie County has had tre-mendous growth, and that comes with added pressure on our school system.”The average school class size is 17-20 students; Westwood has three teachers and a maximum of 25 students. She said the price is affordable, and is one of the few options available to parents.“Imagine if you had a class of 20 students, even 15 with disabil-ities ... and you’re possibly trying to keep kindergartners through fifth graders in that class. It’s very difficult.”“We’re trying to alleviate some of that stress on the school system,” she said.Vaughn told the story of her granddaughter, who was diag-nosed with autism when she start-ed school at age 5. Later, family learned the girl also suffered from a defiance disorder.That showed up on the third week of school, when the child was placed into an “inclusion booth,” what Vaughn described as a 6- by 6-foot padded area, “which was necessary for safety.”“But that led to trauma,” she said, and to a problem with find-ing an affordable, alternative school.

Tell us what you think The Literary Corner Renegade Writer’s Guild 1916 FloodBy Marie CraigHere I am couped up in the house listening to the rain and receiving occasional warnings of flood conditions. It’s a time of wanting to nap and ignore the rain and hope for the best for all of us. But there was a previous huge flood in North Car-olina, especially in Asheville and the mountainous areas that did not allow for extra water to spread out but went up the mountainsides to sweep away homes, farms, railroad tracks, and valuable topsoil. This flood was not to be ignored. There were various complicated weather conditions that brought great flooding, damage, and sorrow to thousands in our state. The date of this huge flood was July 14-16, 1916, one hun-dred and eight years ago.In reading the old newspapers online through the Histo-ry Room section of Davie County Public Library website, I found this article printed on July 19, 1916 in the “Davie Record.”“The Yadkin at Hall’s Ferry. [Hillsdale, now.]. The crest of the flood passed thru Forsyth county Sunday night [16th]. All the afternoon thousands of persons gathered at the vari-ous vantage points along the river to watch the flood waters. At noon all traffic over the new Yadkin and Davie bridges, normally over thirty feet above the water line, was ordered suspended. Just a few minutes after traffic was stopped over the Forsyth-Yadkin bridge, the one just completed a few weeks ago, one of the sections gave way.“The greatest crowds gathered at the Forsyth-Davie bridge. About 2 o’clock Sheriff Flynn roped off the Forsyth end and no more traffic was allowed across. At that time the waters were within a few feet of the floor of the bridge but still rising at an alarming rate. At four o’clock the water reached the steel girders and the rapidly moving driftwood quickly lodged beneath the piers. Finally, at 6 o’clock the wa-ter began to seep through the floor of the bridge and then to swirl across. Everybody was ordered away from the bridge.“At the Davie end of the bridge another crowd of thou-sands gathered to watch the flood. A house at the Davie end, normally well above the danger zone, was flooded to the eves. Barns, houses, haystacks, logs, boards, barrels and boxes swept down the stream.“Only by the most heroic work was the Southern Railway bridge saved. Loaded coal cars were placed on the bridge to weight it down. The power house remains, though damaged.” Winning at LifeBy Julie Terry CartnerFourth quarter. 27 seconds on the clock. Losing 21 to 24. We had the ball, but forward progress was slow, and the clock was winding down. The huddle. The call. Everyone knew with a 4th down and 27 seconds, our only hope was a Hail Mary pass. As the defense spread out ready to cover all poten-tial receivers, the offensive line moved into position. Notic-ing the lineup, the defense tried to re-position, but it was too late. The center hiked the ball to the quarterback, the offen-sive line took position, and the quarterback sprinted towards the end zone. It was the story of the week. It was the kind of story that football fanatics would tell and re-tell, sprawling on rocking chairs on wooden porches…”Do your remember the time”… and off they’d go interrupting each other to tell the story that both knew as well as their own names…how the quarterback had taken the defense by surprise and sprinted 20 yards before the first attempt to stop him. How he’d leapt over one defender and twisted away from another. How he’d crossed the goal line with yet another clinging to his leg. How he wouldn’t give up until he’d given his team the victory. 28 – 24, the final score. Throughout years of coaching and supporting high school athletics, I’ve concluded that often, the greatest difference between a winning and losing team can boil down to the effort of one player. Some were superstars, some were not, but the one thing that separated them from other athletes was this: they pushed harder. They ran faster, they jumped higher, they caught the uncatchable ball, they tackled the star running back, they refused to go down when they were tackled, they held on to the flyer or landed the back tuck. They went the extra mile. And in doing so, they inspired their teammates to do the same. I could see the others look at this one athlete and say to themselves, if he can do it, I can too. And then they would also do the nearly impossible, stretching farther, running fast-er, pushing their limits. And suddenly, a losing game would become a winning game.Imagine if we put that same urgency into our daily lives. Imagine if that drive to win – to pole vault an inch higher, to run just a bit faster, to stick the landing or balance on a four-inch wooden beam, to make the shot, to hurl the shot put or discus, to stroke and kick a bit faster – imagine if we put that kind of energy into being better at life.The smallest of efforts can make a tremendous impact on someone else. Help an elderly woman load her groceries or offer to take her cart back to the rack. And while you’re at it, put the bigger carts on one side, and the smaller carts on the other. I promise you, that kid who has to retrieve the carts for the store will be grateful. Carry non-perishable snacks in your car and give them to the homeless person standing in the hot sun or rain on a busy highway. Look your servers in the eye and remember their names, then say it when you thank them. And leave a generous tip. Pick up that blouse that’s fallen off the store hanger and hang it back up. No, you didn’t drop it, but how hard is it to pick it up before someone steps on it. Pick up that branch on the sidewalk so somebody doesn’t trip on it. Compliment someone with a genuine statement. Hold the door for the person behind you. Push a chair back under a table even if it’s not your chair. It doesn’t have to be com-plicated. Imagine if everyone made the effort to do just a few simple things each day.Imagine the world if we spent more time building others up, helping others, and sincerely being kind. Let’s follow the examples of athletes who make that extra effort to win a com-petition and apply it to everyday life. Let’s make the decision and commit to it. Let’s try harder to win – at life. Home AgainBy Gaye HootsI drove home yesterday after reporting to another nurse about the family member I had stayed with for several days. She is improving daily and chooses not to get in-home care from people she does not know. Her neighbor is a nurse who has volunteered to help and has been helping for years. Most family members are elderly and unable to do more than visits or transportation. The nurse keeps up with and transports her to medical appointments, providing food and other needed as-sistance. She will give me updates by phone.Before I left, I went to Lorene Markland’s, and she pro-vided a box of home-grown tomatoes to take home with me. While I was eating my Bojangles ham biscuit my grandson called and asked me to take him to get groceries as his car is being repaired. I took him to Food Lion and back home and went to Maddie Cakes to pick up cupcakes for Judy Howard.I always visit Judy when I come to Advance. She was in a group activity and I slipped into a chair beside her. When she saw me, she laughed and kissed me. Later I asked if she had seen her great-grandson because I had seen a picture of her holding him posted to Facebook, which I copied to my phone. I didn’t have to remind her, she smiled broadly and said he had visited a few days ago. She was in an upbeat mood and that made my day.It seems every time I visit Advance someone new in my age range is experiencing a health challenge. On Monday I visited the Baptist NICU to see Tiffany and Mia. Now that Mia has a trach, we can see her face without the tubes and tape. There is no discussion of discharge yet. My favorite pic-ture of her is one with her looking at Briggs, her brother. I then drove to Hickory to visit a friend who is 92 years old and still living independently. He asked me to take him to see a female friend who had fallen and broken her pelvis in 3 places. She was home, and in pain, but managing well on her own. On the return drive, I stopped in Mocksville to visit a friend in a nursing home and was told he had fallen that day and had been transferred to another facility. I managed a visit there and got to see his sister, Travisene Carter Boger too. I also spent some time with Glenda Hendrix Beard and Judy Hendrix Osborne. Judy is doing well and has recovered from her broken ankle and Mike is being treated for skin cancer. Glenda enjoyed 5 weeks at the beach and recently returned home. Marie Craig helped me finish my book and I ordered 50 copies. She did an amazing amount of work on it for which I am very grateful. Larry Vogler celebrated a birthday and seems to be recovering.The drive home was pleasant as I avoided Raliegh and drove 421 to 64. I beat the rain home and got settled in. Last night I slept from 11 pm to 9 am, catching up on my rest. I am set to weather the storm that is coming.While catching up on the news I saw that the program I mentioned in another article that flies in 30,000 immigrants a month for free and provides housing, and legal visas to work has been suspended. The program required a sponsor but the sponsor info was not verified, some of the info has been checked, but the addresses, social security numbers, phone numbers, and other info are not valid, and the same info was used thousands of times.Another program started during COVID-19 that provided undocumented immigrants free phone and video visits costing taxpayers 10 million a year has now been stopped. Our na-tional debt is now above 30 trillion and climbing daily.The good news is we and our families are lucky to live in America and to have our daily needs met. It is hard to know what our choices would be if this were not our fate. God blesses! By John Hood If you look at North Carolina’s state flag, you’ll see two dates: May 20, 1775, and April 12, 1776. Each signifies a moment when North Carolinians played a key role in the emerging American Revolution. Each strengthens the claim that our state was, in this context, “First in Freedom.” On the former date, the leaders of Mecklenburg County either created a new county government or formally declared independence from Britain (depending on which account you accept). On the latter date, the North Carolina Provincial Congress, meeting in Halifax, instructed their delegates to the Continen-tal Congress in Philadelphia to vote for independence. While important, neither the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence nor the Halifax Resolves constitutes the first formal act by North Carolinians against British tyranny. That distinction belongs to the Rowan County Committee of Safe-ty. Angered by Parliament’s high-handed legislation and the conduct of royal governors and garrisons in Boston and oth-er American cities, some two dozen Rowan leaders met in Salisbury on Aug. 8, 1774, to draft a response. Their handi-work, issued 250 years ago this week, is called the “Rowan Resolves.” (Editor’s Note: The current Davie County was a part of Rowan County at that time.)While proclaiming their continuing loyalty to King George III, the signers condemned Parliament for enacting what they considered to be illegal levies and regulations. “The right to impose taxes or duties, to be paid by the inhabitants within this Province, for any purpose whatsoever, is peculiar and essential to the General Assembly, in whom the legislative authority of the colony is vested,” the Rowan leaders wrote. “Every attempt to impose such taxes or duties by any other authority is an arbitrary exertion of power, and an infringe-ment of the constitutional rights and liberties of the colony.” They were certainly talking about the reviled tax on tea — the target of the protest, staged eight months earlier, that came to be called the Boston Tea Party. But they were making a broader point. To tax Americans without allowing them rep-resentation in Parliament was “an act of power without right.” It was a dangerous precedent. The leaders named three delegates to represent Salisbury and Rowan County, urging other communities to do the same. They further suggested that all North Carolina delegates con-vene later in the month to discuss the crisis and propose a Continental Congress to “agree upon a firm and indissoluble union and association for preserving, by the best and most proper means, their common rights and liberties.” Interestingly, the Rowan Resolves also stated that “the African slave trade is injurious to this colony, obstructs the population of it by free men, prevents manufacturers and other useful immigrants from Europe from settling among us, and occasions an annual increase of the balance of trade against the colonies.” While hardly a full-throated condem-nation of chattel slavery, this section does reflect the stirrings of anti-slavery sentiment on the frontier — and mirrors the language Thomas Jefferson tried to insert in the American Declaration of Independence two years later. Among the members of the Rowan Committee of Safety were Matthew Locke and William Lee Davidson. A former treasury commissioner for North Carolina, Locke would later sign the Halifax Resolves and serve as a brigadier general during the subsequent Revolutionary War. After many years in the state legislature, Matthew Locke served three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. As for William Lee Da-vidson, he would also serve in the war as a lieutenant colonel in the Continental Line and brigadier general of the Salisbury District militia. On Feb. 1, 1781, the army of General Charles Cornwal-lis began to cross the Catawba River at Cowan’s Ford, just north of Charlotte, in pursuit of the main American army un-der General Nathaniel Greene. With 800 Patriots, Davidson attacked the British — delaying their crossing, but at the cost of his own life. Decades later, the founders of a nearby Pres-byterian college named it in Davidson’s honor. Such was the mettle of our Founders. They backed their inspiring words with courageous deeds. So should we all. John Hood is a John Locke Foundation board member.

See-ing a familiar face is always helpful. Kinder Camp also comforts parents as they ad-just to sending their baby off to be cared for by someone else.”She loves Kinder Camp and doesn’t know what she’d do with herself over the sum-mer without it. “I love coming and play-ing with the kids, and meet-ing many of my students in advance is certainly an ad-vantage. The hardest thing is not getting to keep them all during the school year.”Susan Massey is starting her fifth year as an instruc-tional assistant at Shady Grove. Previously a daycare director in Macon, Ga., she moved to Davie County to be near her grandchildren and jumped at the chance to work at their school. She has wanted to be a part of camp since her first year and was excited to have the opportu-nity this year. “I wanted to meet the students who will be in my class.”Kinder Camp benefits teachers by familiarizing them with their incoming pupils and allowing them to assess students’ personalities and academic skills, which aids in optimizing classroom placement. “It’s helpful to learn which students have person-ality conflicts or may need a little extra help so that we can spread them out across all of the classrooms,” God-bey said.During the four-day pro-gram, she and Massey intro-duced the students to kinder-garten expectations, such as walking in a line, sitting qui-etly, keeping their hands to themselves, and using kind words.Each day offered basic academic activities, like writing their names, cutting with scissors, recognizing letters, shapes, and colors, and listening to read-aloud stories, as well as plenty of opportunities to learn to play appropriately with other stu-dents in centers and on the playground.From cutting shapes in Play-Doh to building with Legos and drawing and writ-ing in the art center, they're enjoying every moment. Little do they know, they're also honing their fine motor skills, learning to follow di-rections, and mastering the art of cooperation. It's a fun-filled journey preparing them for the exciting world of kin-dergarten.Godbey is always amazed at how much students grow from the first day to the last and strongly encourages par-ents with a child entering kindergarten next fall to con-sider Kinder Camp. “Kinder Camp is an awe-some opportunity for stu-dents, families, and teachers. We are so grateful to the Me-bane Foundation for funding this opportunity. It makes such a big impact.”Kinder Camp parents are equally thrilled. Their com-ments about their child’s ex-perience sum it up best. Based on her son’s ex-perience, Desiree Hecht thinks every school system should offer the opportunity. “Kinder Camp is an amaz-ing opportunity for children to prepare for kindergar-ten. Kindergarten is a ma-jor change, and having the opportunity to spend a few days in the classroom with peers really helped reduce some of the anxiety my son was feeling toward starting school. Thank you to every-one who made Kinder Camp possible,” she said.Ashley Bonasso said: “My daughter loved Kinder Camp. It was a great way for her to experience the class- room in a more relaxed en-vironment before the school year starts. She came home asking if she could go ahead and start kindergarten.” “Owen had the best time at Kinder Camp, and he is so excited for school to start. Thank you for making this transition so special and fun,” said Elizabeth Moroz. Ashley Fain said: “Kinder Camp was an absolute game changer for our little one. He has been nervous about start-ing a new big school, but Kinder Camp set his mind at ease. He asks now every day when the first day of school starts so he can see his new friends and learn to read. Thank you.” Continued From Page 1 “Our goal is to let the community know we provide mental health care,” McCau-ley said. “We’re just about the only game in town.”Most patients at the Storehouse suffer from anx-iety and depression, more or less life stresses.“We see people who are survivors of childhood abuse and addictions, past and present,” he said. “Things we would normally recommend are not an option.”Some lack transportation. Some don’t have enough money to pay for the gas to get to sessions. Some just don’t keep appointments, for whatever reason. Some suffer from a lack of quality nutrition, which is essential to good mental health, Mc-Cauley said.“We see a lot of families,” Rush said. “It’s the only life they know and we try to help break that.”“We help them survive,” the doctor said, “to look for new ideas to help them. Most have no or few friends or hobbies. They’re very iso-lated in their stress.”Among other things, they try to engage their patients in the community more, things like joining the YMCA. If nothing else, they encourage patients to walk more. They work with churches and oth-er agencies to find people the help they need.

After high school graduation, Josh attended UNC Charlotte where he developed a passion for mechanical engineering. His schol-arship helped fund many essential textbooks that he occasionally still references today. At Charlotte, Josh studied me-chanical engineering with a con-centration in motorsports. Fast forward 14 years and he now re-sides in Kings Mountain with his wife and two daughters where he is an engineering manager at Dix- Zayne Smith, a 2023 gradu-ate of Davie County High School, has been awarded the N.C. Home Builders Educational & Charita-ble Foundation Scholarship for the 2024-2025academic year. Where Are They Now? Spurgeon Goss scholar carrying the torch in memory of war hero Josh Money and family. on Valve, a manufacturer of fittings and hose couplings for industries and markets. He helps lead two groups of engineers; a research and devel- opment group dedicated to new product development, and an au-tomation and manufacturing group dedicated to building automated equipment. The new product development team has developed product solu-tions such as fireman’s breathing equipment, compressed natural gas, beverage carbonation, hydraulic power in agriculture and construc-tion, and AI server cooling. These efforts have yielded a few product patents he was fortunate enough to be included.“While the technical skillsets I acquired at UNC Charlotte are the basis for entry into this career field, the underlying core values for lead-ership are the same ones displayed by Spurgeon Goss and promoted by the memorial scholarship – integri-ty, honesty and accountability,” he said. Josh mentions that accountabili-ty was ingrained in him by coaches at Davie High and it is an important lesson that helped him. If one person was not account-able to take care of their respon-sibilities on the football field, the entire team fell short. Josh lives by this in his leadership role and al-ways strives to lead by example for his team of engineers. Josh also speaks of the impor-tance of taking on challenges. “Living outside of your com-fort zone and being unafraid to take on challenges where there is risk of failure yields the best re-sults and personal growth. Failure often teaches the best life lessons and those who have achieved great things know how to use failures to their benefit.”Josh’s final piece of advice to students: “Stay humble in your success and strive to build up those around you.” The Spurgeon Goss Memorial Scholarship is in honor of Spurgeon Goss, athlete and a soldier. Spur-geon displayed sportsmanship on the field and led his teammates as co-captain of the 1964 Davie High football team. Spurgeon served his country in the U.S. Marine Corps. In 1967, he was responsible for the rescue of six Marines who were trapped behind enemy lines. He was mortally wounded by hostile military action on the battlefield. By protecting his fellow sol-diers, he became the first Davie County native to lose his life in the Vietnam War. Spurgeon Goss was a man of great integrity and honor. As the recipient of this award 14 years ago, Josh exemplifies the spirit of Spurgeon Goss in his pro-fessional and personal life.

He also works full-time with Shelton Construction in Mocksville.Smith wanted to acknowledge his support from Davie County Schools for helping with this op-portunity. He was active in the CTE department at Davie High where he graduated with honors and par-ticipated in the internship program, which led to his current job.He also earned certifications in welding while dual enrolled at Da-vidson-Davie Community College his senior year.“I’d like to thank Ms. Alyse Wooldridge for encouraging me to apply for the internship and letting me know about the scholarship opportunity,” said Smith. “I also want to thank the Davie High CTE Department, especially Mr. Matt McKnight and Mr. Matt Cartner, who both prepared me well for working in the construction indus-try. The experiences in those class-es helped me discover and build skills that set me up for a success-ful career. I also want to take this opportunity thank Mr. Cartner for writing a very nice essay on my behalf to the scholarship committee“I am very thankful for this scholarship and all the support and opportunities I have received. Thanks to Shelton Construction for the opportunities to learn on the job and for working with me with my school schedule. Finally, I want to thank the Board of Directors of the N.C. Home Builders Educational & Charitable Foundation for this gen-erous award.”In 2023 Smith was awarded the following scholarships from The Davie Community Foundation: B. Edwin & Nell Boger Family, Di-anne & Allen Snipes Family, Ho-mer Crotts, and Miller Building & Remodeling.“There are a lot of great pro-grams and people to help students like me, and I am so grateful for all of them who have supported me along the way,” he said.Zayne Smith reflects on his days at Davie High; and on the job at Shelton Construction.

Covered by Medicare** PAID ADVERTISEMENT By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record A Davie man faces multi-ple drug charges while a fam-ily member faces a charge of trying to interfere with an investigation by the Davie County Sheriff’s Office.Officers served a search warrant on the residence of Dewayne Erick Gaither Chunn, 62, of 3624 US 64 W., Mocksville on Aug. 7 as part of an ongoing investigation.Davie Sheriff J.D. Hart-man said that search not only resulted in the seizure of co-caine, methamphetamine, opioids and paraphernalia, there was evidence of crack cocaine being manufactured.Lashonda Gaither, a rela-tive of Chunn, interfered with officers conducting the search and was charged with misuse of the 911 emergency com-munications system. Another person at the residence will be charged later, Hartman said.Chunn was initially charged with possession with intent to manufacture/sell/deliver cocaine, possession with intent to manufacture/sell/deliver methamphet-amine, possession with intent to manufacture/sell/deliver Schedule II controlled sub-stance, felony maintaining a dwelling for controlled sub-stances, felony possession of cocaine, felony possession of methamphetamine, posses-sion of Schedule II controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of marijuana paraphernalia.Chunn was initially not al-lowed a bond because of oth-er pending narcotics charges, Hartman said. He was later issued a $15,000 bond.“Chunn has a lengthy criminal record, including over 68 charges stretching back to the 1980s, which in-clude mostly drug charges, along with assault on law en-forcement officers and driv-ing under the influence,” he said.“After testing additional items located at the scene, deputies were able to es-tablish probable cause that Chunn was manufacturing crack cocaine at the resi-dence.” He was subsequent-ly charged with trafficking in cocaine and possession of narcotic precursors. His bond was then set at $45,000.“Chunn has caused im-mense harm through his years of selling narcotics to the area and his repeated ar-rests demonstrates the Da-vie County Sheriff’s Office commitment to addressing criminal activity by working tirelessly to protect our com-munity,” Hartman said. Dewayne Chunn Multiple drug charges filed after search 8 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Aug. 15, 2024 By Linda DeanMocksville Garden Club This summer, the Mocks-ville Garden Club celebrated its 30th anniversary. In 1994, the club was started with a donation of $500 from the Davie Cham-ber of Commerce and the help of 30 charter members. It was agreed that the club would be open to all men and women who loved flowers and gardens, were interested in protecting and preserving the environment, and wanted to help beautify the commu-nity.Two of the club's ear-ly members are still active: Margaret Jo Brock and Kath-leen Cartner. From 1994-2000, the club held community proj-ects, along with planting flowers in the boxes down-town. Funds were raised by publishing a cookbook, sell-ing Christmas greenery, and plant sales.In 2000, the club voted to take the savings and open a CD at a local bank with the intention that this money was to be used for a scholarship fund. A scholarship commit-tee was established and the club gave a student a scholar-ship that year and continues to this day: 24 scholarships to deserving Davie students to this day.

Samuel Glenn McDaniel Jr.Samuel Glenn McDaniel Jr., 42, passed away unexpect-edly at CAMC General in Charleston, W.Va. on Tuesday, Aug. 6, 2024. Born in Beckley, W.Va. on May 24, 1982 Samuel was the son of Samuel Glenn McDaniel Sr. and Donna Holiday McDaniel.He was preceded in death by maternal grandparents: Teddy and Hester Holiday; fraternal grandparents: Clyde and Thelma McDaniel; and best friend, Jerry Barnes. After sharing 12 years togeth-er, on Aug. 22, 2020, Samuel married the love of his life, Dea-na Carter McDaniel and she will miss him dearly.

Known for his radiant smile, resilience, and a heart as vast as the ocean he loved to fish, Samuel lived a life that was as vibrant and engaging as he was. Robert Louis Ste-venson once said, "Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant." Samuel lived his life planting seeds of love, bravery, and resilience in the hearts of all he met, and his harvest was the respect and love he gained from all who were fortunate to know him. Born a firefighter at heart, Samuel dedicated his life to the service of others. His courage was as boundless as his compassion, and he served with both the Jane Lew Fire Department and the Advance Fire Department in North Carolina. Samuel was not just a hero in uniform; he was also a hero in his personal life. His family and friends were his world, and he treasured every moment spent with them. Whether camping under the stars, barbecuing like no other, or casting a fishing line into the depths of the ocean, Samuel always brought joy and laughter to those around him.

The War Eagles captured the North Piedmont Conference from 1975-77, they ripped off three straight Central Piedmont Confer-ence titles from 2016-18 and last year they accomplished the three-peat mission. With eighth-year coach Collin Ferebee bringing back a ton of firepower in 2024, the stars appear aligned for Davie to run the streak to four. The War Eagles have an obscene 42-4 record during this latest run, including a 37-1 mark in the CPC. They went 14-1 in 2021, 14-1 again in 2022 and 14-2 in 2023. The door is wide open for Davie because four full-time starters return from 2023. At the top of the ladder is senior Elliot Newsome, who is already a program legend. Heading into her fourth year as the No. 1 seed, her career record in singles is 40-10. She is 33-5 in her doubles career, which means she’s been victorious in 73 of 88 overall matches. New-some is expected to soon commit to a Division-II college. “That (college future) tells you what you need to know about El-liot,” Ferebee said. “She’s definitely improved her footwork, and she’s hitting a lot harder this year. It is a noticeable increase in power.”Corbin Drum went 14-2 at No. 2 as a freshman. “I would not be surprised if Corbin could play No. 1 at a lot of schools that we play this year,” Fere-bee said. “She has not missed a beat since last season ended. She is ready to go and I’m super excited. She is going to be make all of us better by how well she’s playing.”Bailey Aderhold carries a 35-7 singles/doubles record into her ju-nior year. Last year she teamed up with Newsome in doubles and went 8-0 there. The two-sport athlete just received a basketball offer from Division-II Barton. “She doesn’t neglect (tennis),” Ferebee said. “I think she had the most 3s in the CPC last year, so she’s obviously an excellent basketball player. But she’s still dedicated to the tennis program, which speaks to who she is as a person.”Leah Gibson went 14-3 at No. 4 as a freshman. Drum and Gibson achieved a sparkling 8-1 record at No. 2 doubles. “Leah came in locked and load-ed,” he said. “She’s really impressed this summer. She’s added more weapons to her game.”A breakout player could be junior Casey Cao, who took full advantage of her opportunities last year, going 5-0 in spot duty at No. 6 singles. “She has improved a ton,” Fer-ebee said. “Whether she starts full time or not, that is still be to seen because our tryouts aren’t over, but I can’t imagine that she wouldn’t get a lot more time this year.”Davie could be a dominant force for several more years because the only senior among the returning starters is Newsome and Ferebee watched a solid freshman class roll in this summer. “I think at some point all of (the freshmen) could be a starter for us - if not as a freshman, at some point in their four years,” he said. All signs suggest Kate Chaf-fin and Ola Leszczuk will make a smooth transition from middle school to high school. Chaffin was Ellis’ No. 1 in 2023, while Leszczuk was North Davie’s foremost player. “Kate is probably going to be leading the (freshman) pack,” he said. “She did phenomenal last year at Ellis in tennis and soccer, and I imagine she’s going to bring more of the same to us at the high school. “All of (the freshmen) are super competitive and they’re ready to win. But I think Kate and Ola are going to see the most competitive playing time this year because they’ve really shown up this summer and impressed the upperclassmen.”Notes: The roster includes se-nior Abigail Etter; juniors Victoria McFarlin, Ada Wallace and Ella O’Toole; and sophomores Bethany Jacobs, Makayla Nguyen and Lena Parsley. ... Ferebee’s career record is a robust 80-24. ... How much has the program blown up? Ferebee had to make cuts for the first time as 23 showed up for tryouts. “I would like to keep them all around, but I am one person,” he said. “It’s a good problem to have.” Tons of firepower returns for tennis team By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie volleyball has been relent-lessly consistent under coach Amber Brandon, posting nine winning re-cords in her nine years at the helm, averaging 18.3 wins (not counting the COVID-shortened season of 2020-21) and never finishing be-low third in the Central Piedmont Conference. Last year the War Eagles went 16-8, tied for second in the CPC and reached the second round of the state playoffs. Rising above Reagan, West Forsyth and East Forsyth and re-turning to the top of the league for the first time in three years will be a real chore - Davie is going through change after graduating Lauren O’Connor, Mikaylah Hutton, Malia Privett, Caroline Lakey and Hailey Johnson - but Brandon isn’t facing a full-on rebuild either. She’s looking forward to the scrums between the stacked top half of the CPC, and she’s excited to see how her rotation evolves. “We’re going to be super young this year,” said Brandon, who is 156-62 heading into her 10th year. “It’s been a while that we’ve been as young on the floor as we’re going to be. There’s something a little bit exciting about it being kind of a reset year. Every day at practice is a battle. Nobody’s spot is guaranteed. We’ve got three setters who are duking it out and five pins who are battling it out. It’s the least set of a lineup as I’ve probably ever had at Davie, but it’s made for competitive practices. I anticipate it’ll be a while before we have a set lineup.”The centerpieces are senior Emma Willard and junior Carly Crouch, both of whom are third-year varsity players. “Emma will be really big for us,” she said. “She was the libero last year and had a really good season. She had a really good travel ball season over the winter, spring and summer. So she’s playing really well right now. We’re going to be super V’ball team young By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Russ Fisher is trying to bring a life raft to a soccer program that has been moribund and hopeless for most of its existence. (Last year was rock bottom: 1-20 overall, 0-14 in the CPC, 15 goals for Davie, 94 for opponents.)So far, things are going as well as they could. “It’s going really well,” Fisher, the new Davie varsity boys soccer coach, said. “We’re looking really good. We’re excited about it and looking forward to (the season New coach excited about soccer season opener).”A newcomer to the program has created the biggest buzz. Welcome aboard, Ethan Christie, a sopho-more who will be a centerpiece as a midfielder. “We have an ECNL National (Elite Club National League) player this year,” Fisher said. “Ethan is definitely going to be one of our best players. Up until this past year, they’ve been ineligible for high school athletics. It helps us out (having him), but it also helps a lot of other teams.”Davie has plenty of depth at the midfield spots. Fisher has high ex- pectations for junior Justin Rayas, freshman Kellan Wiles and soph-omore Dylan Cassetta. Wiles is the only freshman on the varsity. “Justin’s definitely a big piece in the midfield,” he said. “Kellan has impressed us a good bit. Dylan’s on the ECNL Regional team; that’s the team right below the national team. He’s going to be really good for us.“We have a lot of depth in the midfield position, between returning guys and guys who have moved up and gotten a lot better since last year.”Fisher has zero concerns when it comes to goalie. Senior Felipe Flores “is going to be great,” he said. Fisher said he sees promise in guys like Hamza Heikal, a sopho-more striker; Alex Torres, a senior at left back; Karson Yount, a senior defender; Zach Hill, a senior cen-ter back; and sophomore Hernan Granadero, a sophomore move-in. “Alex is going to be really good,” Fisher said. “He’s just a solid guy to have back there (on defense).”As pleased as Fisher was after the first week of practice, he knows nothing is going to come easy - not with so much youth. Thirteen of his players are non-seniors. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record A look back at Davie sports 30 years ago ... The 1994 Davie football team left War Eagle Stadium shaking its head after a maddening 26-24 overtime loss to North Iredell. The War Eagles had themselves to blame after committing a clipping penalty to erase David Daye’s 92-yard kickoff return and missing three extra points. They took an 18-12 lead when Deryl Wilson returned a punt 79 yards. The Raiders answered with a tying score, but they had kicking is- 30 years ago: Wilson a stud on both sides of the ball sues themselves and the teams head-ed to OT tied at 18. Davie got the ball first, and on fourth down from the 2, quarterback Neil Cornatzer rolled left and found a wide-open Justin Carter. The extra point, though, was blocked, leaving Davie’s lead at 24-18. North running back Carl Jones scored from the 10 to tie things, and since North had missed three PATs, it decided to go for two. Jones ran it in to beat the War Eagles. Daniel Brewer and Matt Sain had intercep-tions in defeat. The Davie JV football team, which got a touchdown from Au-brey James to open the season with an 8-6 win over North Iredell, tied Salisbury 14-14. Davie seemed poised for victory when it led 14-6 late, but Salisbury scored on what coach Jerry Walser called “the most unbelievable play I think I’ve ever seen,” and then added the two-point conversion. Matt James was everywhere, setting up quarterback Jonathan Creason’s 1-yard TD with a 55-yard punt return and scoring on a 3-yard run to provide the 14-6 lead. The game was all but over until the Hornets scored on a 75-yard hit-and-pitch. “It was third and a bunch,” Walser said. “They threw to their split end, who tossed it to the back. It ended up a 75-yard touchdown but he ran 75 miles.” It was almost a complete collapse - Davie failed to get a punt off and Salisbury got the ball at the Davie 3 with 30 seconds left. But Davie’s defense made a stand to preserve the tie. Davie’s varsity came up just short in an 18-12 loss to Salisbury. A Salisbury gamble backfired and helped Davie tie the score. The Hornets called a fake punt, but the ball carrier was smothered by Jon-athan Vaughters, Brewer and Josh Ward for a 5-yard loss. D. Daye (92 rushing yards) scored from 15 yards out with 10 minutes left to tie it at 12-12.

Last year she moved into a role where she was of-fensive for us, and we expect her to do big things. She is one of the hardest working kids I’ve ever been around, so I’m super excited for what she brings to the table.”Senior Addison Wilson will play a big role. “We’re going to be super young at the pin,” Brandon said. “Addison Wilson is the only senior pin hitter we have. She’s done a great job being a leader. She’s been the most vocal kid in the gym, which has been a cool role to watch her step into because that’s something new for her. She’s done a good job of taking some big swings. She played really competitive travel ball. She’s physically ready and mentally ready.”Junior Mia Clemo is ex-pected to be a key piece. Brandon needs Grace Good-man, Allie Miller and Mela-nie Watson to contribute as sophomores. “Mia has very little time in our gym as a pin hitter,” she said. “She set for the JV team.

I think 75 percent of our (varsity and JV) rosters won’t graduate (in 2025).”Junior VarsityWhile the varsity might be a year or two away from be-coming relevant in the CPC, confidence is high on the JV team. Fisher said the pieces are here for a big season. “We have around 18 fresh-men on JV,” Fisher said. “It’s probably going to be one of the best JV teams Davie’s 30 ... Soccer ... had in a long time. A lot of young talent. They’re a little bit raw for varsity at this time, but they’re definitely going to be really good in the future.”The new JV coach - Chris Ferger replaced Scott Mc-Bain, who guided the JV the past two years - is chomping at the bit. “This team is going to be special,” Ferger said. “It’s going to be one of the better JV teams we’ve had, if not the best.”The most talented guys might be a pair of brothers - sophomore left wing Ronald Perez and freshman center mid Emmanuel Perez. “Ronald is good at drib-bling with the ball,” Ferger said. “He can shoot the ball really well; that’s something both of them can do.”Ferger is also looking for big things from freshman de-fender Talan Andrade, soph-omore goalie Porter Spann and freshman striker Ivan Bustamente. “Talan’s going to be one of our best defenders,” he said. “Porter brings a ton of experience. He is definitely somebody I can trust. Ivan can definitely score a lot of goals this year.”The roster includes ju-niors Franchesco Bulnes and Isaiah Beaty; sophomores Tony Velasco, Eric Martinez, Adriano Vega, Alex Serrano and Josh Baker; and freshmen William Martin, Javi Miran-da, Adren Davis, Jean Avila, Alex Ramirez, David Her-nandez, Osiel Romero, Jaden Godbey, Mason Norman, Diego Dominguez, Seager Brooks, Anthony Ramirez and Giovanni Evaro.” Young ... She did hit some for them, but she’s just focusing on hitting at the varsity level. “Grace, Allie and Melanie will have big, big roles in terms of passing, defense and trying to score points.”Last year big, bad Reagan ran the table (14-0) in the CPC for the second year in a row on the way to 37-1 over-all and state runner-up. Davie, East and West tied for second at 10-4. Brandon looks for all four to be contenders for the 2024 crown. “Reagan will still be pretty strong,” Brandon said. “I think it’ll be interesting to see how much losing Jordan Smart hurts Reagan this year. They’re still going to be super talented offensively, but she was a kid who made that offense go. She was at a different level than any other setter in the CPC. So it will be interesting to see how they look without her running the offense.”Reagan is always deep and talented, but West is dreaming big, too. “West Forsyth will be really good,” Brandon said. “I think West Forsyth could make a run to win the CPC for sure. They have a dynamic sophomore class. West proba-bly won’t have as good of ball control as Reagan, but they have some really talented pin hitters.” East might make some noise as well. “East Forsyth will be an interesting challenge,” Bran-don said. “Kinnady Boothe had an injury in the club season; I’m not sure where she is in her recovery process - if she’s available for the high school season or when she’ll be available during the high school season. They have some size with Laney (Blevins), who will probably be a Division-I middle. When East Forsyth has beaten us the past couple of years, it’s been Payton (Fendley) that we couldn’t stop. I think she’ll be huge for them.”Who’s going to rise to the top? The stage is set for a fascinating race. “I think it’s going to be a battle,” Brandon said. “It’s going to be a really, really, really strong top half of the CPC.”Brandon’s coaching staff is the same as 2023, with Marnic Lewis working as varsity assistant, Tabatha Ly-ons as JV coach and Morgan Flores as JV assistant. The varsity roster includes seniors Mallorie Brown and Cora Nicholson; juniors Addison McKay, Grace Ratledge, La-nah Kruger and Mackenzie Burrows; and sophomores Isabelle Branham and Ella Shea. Continued From Page B1regrouped and won the game with a 14-play drive that chewed eight minutes off the clock.The varsity War Eagles bounced back for a win they had to have, 21-14 at Forbush, which only managed 105 total yards. All three TDs were big plays - Cornatzer’s 46-yard pass to Josh Ward, Sain’s 65-yard punt return and a trick play in which Cornatzer tossed a backward pass to Ward, who threw a strike to D. Daye for 46 yards. Ward had his fourth TD catch in four games, Brewer got an INT for the second week in a row and Vaughters ran 13 times for 103 yards. The Davie boys soccer team was unbeaten after sev-en games - the record was 3-0-4 - largely because goalie Ben Forrest was playing bril-liantly. “Ben has been awe-some,” coach Pete Gustafson said. “I can’t even describe how well he’s playing. He’s a pleasure to watch.”South Davie’s eighth-grade football team lost star JJ Rice to injury early in the game but still found a way to gut out a 14-6 win over North Davie. “That’s probably 75 percent of our team,” South coach Barry Whitlock said. Shante Frazier’s interception led to David Nail’s 20-yard TD run. North answered as Thomas Hunter scored from 8 yards on fourth down. The game’s final TD was a weaving, sideline-to-sideline, 75-yard scamper by South’s Kenny Collins. The South win overshadowed a mon-strously productive game by North’s John Daye, who had 15 tackles, two sacks, two fumble recoveries and one forced fumble. “It was the best defensive game we’ve had here in two years,” North coach Ron Kirk said. Chris Perry and North Davie’s seventh-grade foot-ball team pulled out a 20-12 overtime classic against South Davie, which dropped a sure TD on the last play of regulation. Ricky White’s 40-yard run gave South a 6-0 lead. Perry tied it by catching a long pass from Drew Rid-enhour. In OT, Perry scored from the 9. South got the ball but fumbled on second down. White had 129 rushing yards in defeat. The Davie girls cross country team beat North Da-vidson and South Rowan even though runners - its top three runners, no less - were falling out right and left. Allison Foil pulled a muscle, Beth Wall pulled up lame and Sidra Ledford stepped on a nail. Kelly Robertson (third place at 25:04) and Lynna Hanes (fourth at 25:53) picked up the slack as Davie finished with 31 points to North’s 36. “Kelly has a lot of heart,” coach Cary Powers said. Wilson was the star in the varsity football team’s 28-14 win over South Stokes. Not only did he rush for 163 yards, he made 11 tackles on defense. Davie’s volleyball team nailed down third place in the CPC - and a state playoff berth - behind key produc-tion from Maria Newsome, Jonette Williard, Laura Moyer and Katie Desch. Davie varsity football could hardly have been better in a 41-13 win over Reyn-olds. Wilson continued his tremendous work, grabbing an interception and two plays later dashing 47 yards to the end zone before finishing with 136 rushing yards. Wilson wasn’t the only two-way stud - Cornatzer ran the show at QB and contributed seven tackles and an INT on de-fense. D. Daye (72 yards) and Vaughters (65) helped Davie pile up 384 rushing yards and the most points in 11 years. Davie girls tennis made history by qualifying for the state playoffs for the first time. A 6-3 win over South Rowan put it in third place in the CPC. The singles winners were Tami Ramsey, Beth Campbell, Tiffany Harris and Stephanie Carter. The doubles wins came from Laura Prilla-man/Ramsey and Campbell/Harris. Eric Shook, a scrappy 5-5, 140-pounder, sparked the varsity football team’s 21-0 homecoming win over North Davidson. When North went for it on fourth-and-2, Carter nailed the runner for a 2-yard loss. Three plays later from the Davie 43, Shook reeled in Cornatzer’s bomb and gave Davie a 7-0 lead. Vaughters (141) and Wilson (101) both surpassed 100 rushing yards as Davie improved to 5-4. Afterward, Shook and Allee Boyce picked up the water cooler and tried to drench coach Randall Ward. North Davie’s eighth-grade team beat West Rowan 22-12 because the Wildcats had Hunter and West did not. Hunter rushed for 251 yards, averaged 18 per carry and added a kickoff-return TD in which he dropped the ball, picked it up and raced 65 yards to cap the scoring. North’s defense delivered two goal-line stands. The ringleader - this won’t sur-prise you - was J. Daye (15 tackles). A 26-12 loss at South Rowan was a bitter pill to swallow for Davie’s varsity, which would have clinched a playoff berth with a win. The disparity in penalty yards - 150 for Davie, 10 for South - had coach Randall Ward fuming. That was compound-ed by three fumbles. South scored 19 unanswered points after Davie took a 12-7 lead into the fourth. D. Daye’s 65-yard TD and Wilson’s 81-yard score and 175 rushing yards became footnotes. “If you physically beat us and out-execute us, that’s fine,” Ward said. “That’s the way it’s supposed to be played. But it’s not the way it was played tonight. I’m as upset as I’ve ever been in coaching.” Davie’s JV finished 5-3-2 after a 0-0 tie with West For-syth. “I don’t have a sister,” Walser said. “So do I get to kiss somebody else’s sister?” Scott Cornatzer’s INT killed a West drive, James had a 32-yard punt return and 69 yards on nine carries, and Creason earned praise for his play at defensive end. “Creason is showing shades of being another Justin Carter,” Walser said. “He may be undersized but he makes up for it with a mean streak.” • Upcoming Games •Wednesday, Aug. 14Davie varsity soccer at home vs. Starmount at 5:30Thursday, Aug. 15Davie JV/varsity volleyball at home vs. Ashe Co. at 5/6:15Friday, Aug. 16Davie football scrimmage at home vs. S.

Lucas and Axel of the Rockhounds have really improved in their first season of T-ball. They both can hit the ball off the tee really well and are learning to focus in the field so they can make good plays Emmy McCrary of the coach pitch Wolfpack was on fire in one of her last games. She had three hits and really hustled. She never gives up and always has a smile on her face. She is a great teammate. Andy Wilkins of the minors Blue Jays demonstrates excellent team- work skills, maintains attentiveness and consistently enhances his performance in various positions. He provided an impressive assist. Daniel Holbrook of the minors Braves is a team player, getting on base any way possible. He was exceptional be- hind the plate and had a hit and scored a run in a tough loss. He is enthusiastic about the game and a true team player. Crosby Cornatzer of the machine pitch River Bandits played a great game, going 3 for 3 and making some awesome stops at second to help get outs. Blake Tollie also played an amazing game, going 2 for 3. He did amazing at catcher and had a great stop in the outfield. Both boys’ hard work helped their team get the win. Ki’Yon Sylvester of the T-ball Lug Nuts is always the first player to get the ball because he is the fastest player on the field. He has great energy and is loving the game. Mary Ella Foy of the coach pitch Heavy Hitters has been a big help to her team at catcher. She shows up to every practice ready to play ball and has improved a lot this season. She’s had some great at-bats and continues to grow with every game. Unfortunately, Peyton Hernandez had to sit out a few games due to an ankle injury, but she still showed up to every game just to support and cheer on her teammates from the dugout, which meant the world to them and her coaches. She is a perfect example of a great teammate. Peyton swings hard every time and got an awesome hit in her last game. Look out for Cameron York of the minors Blue Jays. He has been a standout hitter this season, launching not just one but two inside-the-park home runs. He’s quick with a smile and an encouraging word for this teammates. We can’t wait to see his big hit.

Donations are appreciated. Wesley Chapel is three miles west of Farmington just off of NC 801 N. on Pino Road. Wesley Chapel sends sympathy to the family of Samuel McDan-iel. We want Deana McDaniel and her family, who live in West Vir-ginia, and Deana’s mother, Cindy West King and family of Advance, to know we are so sorry for their loss. Everyone says that Samuel was such a good man, and that is also shown by the fact that he had done what was necessary to donate his organs after his death. That has happened and someone received a new heart. Deana has started a Go Fund MNe to help with expenses. Olive Cujas of Cana returned from a mission trip to Atlanta, Ga. with the Hillsdale United Methodi-ist Youth Group. They saw some of the sites in Atlanta.

While shoppers checked out the myriad of the Re-store’s new and gently used merchandise, staff from the American Red Cross attended stations where more than 30 people rolled up their sleeves to donate much needed blood. The event surpassed goals, as a total of 32 people came through the donation site, and 30 units of life-sav-ing blood were collected.Sponsors included Davie Construction, which contrib-uted $10 to Habitat for each blood donor, while Gildan donated t-shirts. Sales of the t-shirts helped to raise funds for Habitat Davie’s new con-struction project which was recently begun. Cupcakes were provided by Maddie Cakes Bakery. In addition to the Blood Drive, local vendors and com-munity partners participated in the afternoon’s activities. Representatives from the Da-vie County Public Library and Davie County Sheriff’s Office provided information and answered questions about their services. Volunteers, including members of Boy Scout Troop 525, the new Davie Women’s Auxiliary, and other Hab-itat Davie supporters from the community braved the storm to assist participants with registration, directions, and snacks. The display from Cardinal Creek Candles and Gifts added to the festivities, while a hat bar by Graclyn Designs was a popular and fun activity. The American Red Cross recently declared an emer-gency blood shortage be-cause the national inventory of blood fell by 25 percent in July. *Annual Percentage Yield (APY) eective as of the publication date. $1,000 minimum deposit to open and is required to earn stated APY.
