This August, the Davie Com-munity Foundation awarded $32,891 in grants to five organi-zations to support initiatives that enhance healthcare services.A grant of $10,000 went to A Storehouse for Jesus to help with medical needs of uninsured and low-income residents. “This crucial funding will en-hance the clinic’s ability to pro-vide essential medical care and further its mission to help those in need,” said Jane Simpson, foundation president and CEO. The $10,000 will be allocated for the purchase of clinic/patient sup-plies, prescription medications and medical laboratory tests. A Storehouse for Jesus is the only free medical clinic in Da-vie County. In 2023, they served 365 patients with a total of 1,329 clinic visits. The clinic practice is staffed with medical doctors, phy-sician assistants, nurses, nursing assistants, laboratory technicians, pharmacists, translators and cleri-cal support staff, all of whom do-nate their time and expertise.• Davie County Recreation and Parks was awarded $2,200 for the purchase of an automat-ed external defibrillator (AED). The AED will be stationed at the ballfield for baseball and softball games and will serve as a backup unit when not in use during those games. “In the event of a medical emergency, having an AED on site can significantly increase the chances of survival by providing immediate treatment before pro-fessional medical help arrives. With the high volume of games, Grants promote better health Foundation from old hospital still active Please See Grants - Page 9 Bermuda Run Mayor Mike Brannon said it best as he described Davie’s newest Ambassadors of Respect.“Too often we hear the negative stories of young adults and the things they should or should not be doing. It’s so encouraging to be able to show the positive side of what these special individuals are doing to make a difference in the lives of others”.He introduced two young people who are making a difference in the lives of others. “I have always been observant and if I see something that needs doing or changing, I look for the solution,” said Ava Brown. She said that two years ago at age 13. She had observed in many of her classes that there were interruptions because students had forgotten their pencils. The teacher had to stop and find them a pencil, which Ava learned were frequently paid for by the teacher along with other school supplies. Ava’s Davie Respect Initiative (DRI) project was called “Pencils for Peers,” and she collected more than 21,000 pencils which she donated to elementary and middle schools in Davie County. Ava was awarded $1,000 for this idea. Fast forward to 2024. Show some respect Davie’s youth ambassadors continue to do just that In March, the Ambassadors of Respect (AoRs) hosted a bingo game at Somerset Court Assisted Living. Ava connected with an old friend who she had not seen in years. Mary Anne used to be a waitress at Miller’s and was her favorite waitress and became a good friend to the family. Once they recon-nected, Ava and her mother would visit Mary Anne and one day they brought her an orchid. Mary Anne just lit up, Ava said. Ava loves flowers and this gave her the idea for “Blooms of Hope.” Mason jars have already been collected and Ava plans on making small arrangements with a note and or a prayer with each arrangement. “Some residents long for a sense of appreciation, that someone cares and sees them, thinks about them, and prays upon their well-be-ing and happiness,” she said.Ava has always had a passion for flowers and flower arranging. “My project will hopefully inspire others to take something they love and put it to good use to make someone's day.”• Charlotte Anderson has also observed a situation and come up with a positive solution.

Tell us what you think The Literary Corner: Renegade Writer’s Guild State constitutional amendment important To the editor:The sample ballot for the upcoming election is available on the Davie County Board of Elections website. Everyone should take a look at it and specifically be aware that the last item on it is a referendum regarding the North Carolina Con-stitution that is vastly important to the legal citizens of our state. This amendment reads: "Constitutional Amendment to provide that only a citizen of the United States who is 18 years of age and otherwise pos-sessing the qualifications for voting shall be entitled to vote in any election in the State."This is a significant deviation from the current Constitu-tion, which states:"Article VI - Suffrage and Eligibility To Office. Section 1. Who may vote. Every person born in the United States and every person who has been naturalized, 18 years of age, and possessing the qualifications set out in this Article, shall be entitled to vote at any election by the people of the State, ex-cept as herein otherwise provided." (Section 2 and continuing sections go on with other voting requirements, but none of them address the specific qualifications regarding Section 1.)The proposed wording on the upcoming ballot removes with "born in the United States and who has been natural-ized." That wording has been changed to simply "a citizen of the United States...". The qualifications for voting in NC are reduced by this new amendment. According to recent dis-cussions on news broadcasts, being a "citizen" simply means living in our country regardless of whether doing so legally or illegally.If this new wording passes on the NC Ballot, it apparently means any person living in North Carolina who was not born in the US and is also not a naturalized citizen will be eligible to vote in all of our state's future elections. It also potentially opens the way for court cases regarding clarification of the wording...what exactly does "citizen" now mean? Is it any-one who resides in our state, regardless of how they came here? Apparently so, since the words "born in the US" and "has been naturalized" are removed in the new amendment version.I think it's interesting and scary how this referendum end-ed up on our ballot with little, if any, information about it being heard in the news or from our state senators and repre-sentatives. It's just been sort of secretly slid onto the ballot. At least, I hadn't heard anything about it before actually reading the sample ballot this week. Have you? I suspect many people will read it and just vote "YES" because it sounds like a good thing on it's face, but they won't know the significance of the words being deleted from the current Constitution unless they happen to be familiar with that wording. I personally suspect this is what the proposers of the Amendment know and want to happen. I also think it is a slap in the face to all of those immigrants who followed our Constitution's requirements and did the hard work to become legal active and productive citizens of our country.Voting "YES" on the referendum will apparently reduce the requirements for voting on decisions affecting the legal residents of NC who pay taxes in our state. If this referendum passes, anyone who resides here but was neither born in the US nor has gone through the process to become a naturalized citizen will be able to vote in all future elections in our state. The new Section 1 of our Constitution will be changed and will no longer say anything about being born here nor being a "naturalized citizen" (i.e. a naturalized resident); it will just say "citizen" (aka "resident").The most recent version of our NC Constitution affecting voter eligibility regulations became effective in 1971. The proposed amendment, if it passes, will update that version. The current version can be found at: www.ncleg.gov/Enact-edLegislation/Constitution/NCConstitution.pdf. Voting re-quirements are found on pages 26 and 27. Section 1. on page 26 is the most important information regarding this issue.Gaye Schooler, Mocksville MelungeonsBy Linda H. BarnetteAfter my book club read Demon Copperhead, and learn-ing that Demon’s father was a Melungeon, I decided to read about them.According to the NC Pedia, Melungeons are descendants of a people who had mixed ethnic ancestry. Before 1800 they were found living in the Appalachian Mountains near the point where North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia meet. They often have dark skin and brown eyes, but some have red hair and light-colored eyes like Demon did.It’s possible that they originally lived in coastal North Car-olina, but that is just speculation. One of the many theories about their early history is that they may have been descen-dants of the settlers in the Lost Colony and the Indians along the coast. Other theories say their ancestors could have been sailors, explorers, or early colonists who could have gotten stranded on the coast.Modern research has concluded that they are triracial, likely a mixture of European, Indian, and African lineage. As a group they have been ostracized because of their racial sit-uation. The word “Melungeon” came to signify a person of low social status.The term comes from the French “mélange,” meaning mixture. According to an article in Wikipedia, the earliest his-torical record of these people dates to the Stony Fork Baptist Church in Scott County, Va. and another mention by a Ten-nessee politician in 1840. The Melungeons of Hawkins Coun-ty, Tenn. claim that their white blood came from English and Portuguese settlers and the Indian blood to Cherokee natives.So like the Lost Colony their history remains a mystery to this day and an outstanding example of the prejudice that still exists. Unique EndpointBy E. BishopWhy is it that we cannot see the beauty of natural things in this world until it’s almost too late? In 1973, threatened by imminent development, Carolista Baum stood in the path of a bulldozer to save the dune system from destruction. Can you imagine the selfishness of such an act to destroy Jockey’s Ridge where at over 100 feet is the tallest living sand dune system on the Atlantic Coast? So thanks to Ms. Baum and others like her, 427 acres were saved to make an ideal place for kite flying, hang gliding, sand-boarding, swimming in the sound, and watching beautiful sunsets and it’s free. You just have to be able to walk in all that sand.Fifteen years ago when I was much younger, I was able to walk to the top of the dunes; the family and I enjoyed the hang gliders, kite fliers, and tolerated the heat pretty good. Another trip to the dunes this summer was a little more chal-lenging; we let the younger ones climb to the top while we watched barefoot in the sparse shade near the terminus mon-ument located at the base of the sand dunes.How did these dunes come to be? Geologists believe that Jockey’s Ridge was formed when strong water currents from hurricanes and storms washed sand from large offshore shoals onto the beach. They are always changing during the seasons thereby the reason for calling them the living sand dunes. Reason for the name (Jockey’s Ridge) - legend has it that horse races took place on the flats while spectators sitting on the slopes of the dunes watched. According to the “Outer Banks 2024” magazine, Ben Jones of Cary, NC designed and built the unique iconic fixture (where we waited for the others) using dock pilings representing the area of its placement. Installed in October, 2023, the monumental structure represents the Mountains-To-Sea Trail (MST) endpoint. Elevation -75 feet, Jockey’s Ridge, Eastern Terminus.The MST was proposed in 1977 and added to the park system in 2000; is North Carolina’s state trail and longest marked footpath which takes approximately 2,112,000 foot-steps to complete. It was originally designed to connect the state’s natural beauty but it also connects communities and people along the way. The journey takes those brave enough to tackle it through some of the most beautiful landscapes and diverse ecosystems North Carolina offers. About 185 people have completed its entire length although some may not have checked in at the end.More fun facts, the MST passes through 37 counties, four national parks, two national wildlife refuges, three national forests, passes three lighthouses, includes two ferry rides and climbs both the tallest mountain peak and the highest sand dune in the Eastern United States. Best time to attempt this journey is Spring or Fall for cooler weather and fewer bug bites. If indeed you plan on the full journey all at once, it will take you approximately three to four months. The beginning point is Clingmans Dome where it con-nects to the Appalachian Trail in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (Mt. Mitchell, the highest point at 6,684 feet in elevation). This is where our family needs to visit next. We can at least say we saw the beginning and the end of what I imagine is a beautiful Mountains-to-Sea Trail. YvonneBy Stephanie DeanThis is a story of love, loss, marriage, and related benefits. I’m on a private Facebook page with many girls with whom I attended a private, all-female, Catholic high school. One friend, Yvonne, shares her daily suffering and dis-tress. She wasn’t one of my best friends but I remember her well. She was always bubbly with laughter and was extreme-ly smart. I could not understand how Yvonne had ended up in such dire circumstances. So I made it a priority to have a “confer-ence” call with her every week for the past year. My goodness – how she has languished in her later years from physical and mental issues. After 25 years of marriage, Yvonne’s husband left her for another woman who he married. He sold their marital home out from under her and she, having been a housewife her en-tire life and without income, was left destitute. Meanwhile, Yvonne suffered from a mental breakdown and completely lost her kids as a result – as so often happens with mental illness. Her children have not been in touch with her for many years. Yvonne ballooned up over 350 lbs. and developed many additional health issues as a result. She has been living at poverty level income for years in a government assisted apartment building. Yvonne cannot walk without assistance, has no car, and relies on the church down the street for food, groceries, a ride to church, etc. She has been able to hold down a part-time job working from home as a telephone sales operator for a clothing com-pany. Because she had been a housewife and mother practi-cally her entire life – the toughest job ever – she didn’t have any social security built up on her own.It wasn’t long after I emotionally adopted Yvonne that she asked to borrow $125 to help pay her rent. Her monthly ex-penses had outweighed her income that month. So I loaned the money to her. Over the course of the next year, I sent her many coloring books, multiple cans of soup, and applied small amounts of money monthly to her Venmo acct so she could buy diapers.Upon hearing her story, I was shocked that she’d never received any of her husband’s social security after his death many years ago. She was under the false assumption that be-cause he had remarried, she could not claim his social securi-ty. She was incorrect. They had been married well over the 10-year requirement – in fact they’d been married 25 years. The fact he remarried made no difference. And Yvonne was not currently married.I encouraged Yvonne to go to the Social Security office. She did and discovered that not only was she entitled to a monthly check but years of back pay also– based on what her former husband had paid in. But then a huge snag followed – Yvonne couldn’t find her marriage license certificate. After making many calls trying to locate a copy – she was unsuccessful and fell despondent. And that’s when I asked my good friend, Linda Barnette, to step in. Linda is really strong in genealogy. I shared all the info with Linda– full names, marriage date, divorce date, etc. And Linda went to work doing what she does best. In 10 min-utes, Linda emailed me a copy of the missing marriage certifi-cate. It had been filed in a different county. The discovery was nothing less of a miracle – and Linda Barnette was a hero. After all these years living in poverty, Yvonne has re-ceived her back pay in a lump sum and is now receiving a monthly benefit. No longer will she have to decide between food, medicines, or diapers. And I was so happy for this sweet, smart girl. She has been able to pay her rent 6 months in advance and pay off all her bills. Even her voice has changed – there’s a joy now where once, there was only sadness and despair. But the story doesn’t end here. A few weeks ago, I re-ceived an email from Venmo. Someone had deposited $500 in my account. I was shocked. Where did this money come from? And then I saw it was from Yvonne. Do you know my friend repaid me more than three times the amount I had loaned her – all she asked was that I use the extra to pay it forward. And when I refused to take the money, she would hear nothing of the sort. She begged me to graciously accept the money – thereby restoring her integrity. And so, I did.What goes around often does come around. When local Mocksville resident and former teacher, Linda Barnette, came to the rescue of my friend – she performed a good deed. In addition, despite her many personal difficulties, Yvonne’s generous action to pay it forward made for another good deed. And every good deed is worth writing about.

Just about everything was covered except my hands and face.Then, pow!I almost broke my glasses as I slapped at my eye.Yes, a mosquito had found its way under the glasses and did what mosquitoes do best - right on my eyelid.Ouch!It was at that time I thought, in this situation, “What would Jimmy Buffet do?”If life gives you mosquitoes, make margaritas.- Mike Barnhardt Wasted away in ...

The organization’s commitment to hiring the best team to care for patients remains un-wavering.“In Davie County, specif-ically, we're focused on mak-ing care more accessible,” said Hutchens. “Frankly, for us, investing in our under-served and rural communi-ties is the right thing to do. That's why we're continually adding new primary and spe-cialty care services through-out Davie and surrounding counties.”Novant Health maintains partnerships in Davie Coun-ty with the YMCA, Smart Start, and Senior Services. Its latest partnership in-cludes Walk With a Doc, an international program that Novant Health is kickstart-ing in Mocksville. Commu-nity members are invited to walk at Davie County Com-munity Park once a month on Saturdays, getting to know providers and the Novant Health team outside its clini-cal facilities. “Ultimately, the goal of these community part-nerships is to leverage our strength and integrate our health and wellness initia-tives to create a healthier fu-ture for everyone,” Hutchens said.Novant was also an early partner to ID and has provid-ed financial support to the program since 2021."We are one of the larg-est employers in the Triad, so we're constantly thinking about how Novant Health can help recruit and train the next generation of health-care professionals,” Hutchen said.“It's no secret that there's a shortage of physicians, nurses and several types of technologists nationwide. We are also seeing shortages in our nonclinical space, spe-cifically in trade positions. We certainly feel these short-ages on a local level as well.”Hutchens and her team are grateful that ID is rising to the challenge to help ad-dress this need. By offering tuition assis-tance to attend Davidson-Da-vie Community College (DDCC), ID seeks to raise the educational attainment of Davie students, removing financial obstacles and pre-paring students for careers in skilled trades like healthcare. “Thankfully, this program is committed to cultivating local talent by introducing our students to a variety of healthcare opportunities and equipping them with the re-sources they need to take that next step in career develop-ment.“That is something we care deeply about, so that helped us decide that we really needed to become an Employer of Choice.”Novant Health was re-cently awarded the most “A’s” for patient safety in North Carolina from The Leap Frog group, and was recognized as the top joint replacement provider in the Triad by Healthgrades. After ID became per- manently endowed, Novant transitioned to becoming an Employer of Choice to stay involved with the program. This shift signifies Novant’s commitment to financially supporting workforce devel-opment and engaging with students as they prepare for professional journeys. As an Employer of Choice, businesses are en-couraged to work directly with ID students. This col-laboration exposes students to local industry and career options while helping busi-nesses stay top of mind as students enter the workforce after graduation.Going forward, Novant aims to deepen its collabora-tion with DDCC. "We look forward to working closely with the Health and Wellness and Skilled Trades programs at DDCC," Hutchens said, adding that their plans in-clude providing mentors, guest speakers, and hands-on learning experiences for students. She emphasized the im-portance of nurturing talent and ensuring students have the skills they need to suc-ceed in the healthcare indus-try.Novant Health also looks forward to continuing its re-lationship with Davie Coun-ty High School (DCHS) through career showcase events, classroom Q&As, and attending the Triad Regional Health Occupa-tions Students of America (HOSA) Conference hosted annually by the high school.“We decided to partner with Ignite Davie because it’s an organization that’s committed to investing in our most valuable local as-set – our people,” Hutchens said.She commended the pro-gram for working with local employers to prepare stu-dents for life and careers be-yond the classroom.Hutchens emphasized the potential for continued col-laboration across industries, encouraging other business-es to consider similar part-nerships with ID. “This program is a stra-tegic, community-focused initiative with huge return on investment potential. While Novant Health’s partnership focuses on healthcare, I see tremendous potential for other industries as they de-velop their own workforce,” Hutchens said. “Frankly, investing in our local workforce is the right thing to do. It's an in-vestment that needs to hap-pen. Not only will it lead to enhanced and sustainable healthcare services in our community, but it will also keep our local talent close to home,” she said.To learn more about job opportunities at Novant Health, visit https://www.no-vanthealth.org/careers/.

Continued From Page 1She has been a mountain biker for many years. She has noticed that park re-strooms are often far from the trailheads. Charlotte de-cided to build a changing stall at Salisbury Communi-ty Park. “I wanted to provide a safe space for bikers and hikers to change in and out of athletic wear,” she said. It took more than 80 hours of planning, journaling, col-laborating and building, for which Charlotte also earned her Girl Scout Gold Award. The final product was a functioning wooden stall with a roof, lockable door, bench, and clothing hook. DRI awards projects that increase or enhance respect in Davie County and while this was built in Salisbury, many bikers including a group called, “Pink Dirt,” and hikers from Davie uti-lize this park and will benefit from this changing station. “This project is also ded-icated to inspiring others to upkeep their community and encourage the youth to come together to address things that need to be fixed or im-proved.” Mayor Brannon contin-ued:“As I look at our award recipients, Charlotte Ander-son and Ava Brown, I am reminded that these young ladies represent our future leaders. Not only do they bring a positive spirit—a light of hope for all of us—they are also showing to oth-er youth a path forward as well.” Do You know a young person between 12-21 who has a good idea to bring out even more respect in Davie County?

DDAC continues to grow and has unlimited potential in helping meet the demand in the workforce.”Jeff Cox, president of the N.C. Community College system, was the guest speak-er at the event at the Mary E. Rittling Center on the col-lege’s main campus.DDAC is an alliance of manufacturing companies in Davidson and Davie coun-ties, including BMK Ameri-cas, CPM Wolverine Proctor, EGGER Wood Products, KURZ, Mohawk, Ingersoll Rand, Owens & Minor, and Cascade Die Casting Group with a goal of providing fu-tures for tomorrow’s talents.This year’s group of DDAC apprentices in-clude (with company): Aar-on Cook, EGGER, Cletis Hash, EGGER, Sean Kirby, EGGER, Pasquale Napoli-tano, EGGER, Omar Perez Rocha, EGGER, Kendall Wells, KURZ, Jack Dawson, KURZ, Christian Rickard, CPM.It is a paid, four-year program in mechanical or electrical trades, or a two-year production operator track, with a full scholarship to cover tuition, books, and other college fees.

The college is seeing sig-nificant growth, ushering in 4,214 students taking curric-ulum courses – up 12 percent from last year and 24 percent from the fall of 2021.Helping kick off the se-mester were members from the Student Government As-sociation, who hosted a Wel-come Back event, greeting students with backpacks as they entered campus.Jenny Varner, president, notes that more students means the instructors and staff are more than prepared for whatever comes their way these first days of class – answering questions, giv-ing directions and offering help.“This first day of class always generates excitement on campus. Students are ea-ger to meet instructors and classmates, and discover what lies ahead for the se-mester,” Varner says. “Ul-timately, we know this first day can sometimes become stressful, but our instruc-tors and staff members are always on hand to meet the needs of each and every stu-dent who walks on campus. We want their educational journey with us to be a hap-py and successful one, so we make sure we’re with them from day one.”Varner adds that with the increase in enrollment, the college is seeing significant growth in certain areas of study, including welding, up 16 percent from last fall and cosmetology, up 10 percent from last fall. Enrollment in social and human services has grown by 64 percent thanks to the addition of certificate and degree pathways in child ad-vocacy studies.The college continues to see a growing number of high school students in-terested in dual-enrollment options, such as Career and College Promise (CCP).

By Julie WhittakerPartners Davie Community Collaborative Suicide Prevention Initiative Folks, Davie has a history of having spiked years with high suicide rates. Sadly, it appears that we may well be in such a year. As of early April, there were five confirmed deaths by sui-cide. This number will likely be the average rate for a year.But by August, there were a surprising number of additional deaths, suspected suicides, awaiting confirma-tion through investigation. If even a few are confirmed, Davie’s rate is at a spiked level - meaning we have more deaths by suicide than the national or North Caroli-na rate of 14.21 per 100,000.We can all do our best to prevent more self-inflicted deaths. And learning to do this can save a life in your family.September is Suicide Prevention Month. World Suicide Prevention Day is observed on Sept. 10. Any of us can learn a lot about suicide prevention by visit-ing websites like AFSP.org, SAMHSA.gov, 988lifeline.org, NAMI.org, and the ja-sonfoundation.com.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 5, 2024 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Reynolds and Reagan are sup-posed to be the biggest CPC chal-lenges for Davie’s tennis team. The War Eagles obliterated Reynolds 8-1 on Aug. 19. They had a repeat performance against visiting Reagan on Aug. 26, winning again by an 8-1 margin. The War Eagles have gotten so good that their matches have become laughers. Coach Collin Ferebee’s job now is to make sure his girls don’t get fat and sassy. “I told them: ‘Hey, great win tonight. I told you our first two big tests of the year are Reynolds and Reagan. You passed those but the season’s just starting. We can’t let complacency come in, but there’s some good things happening if we Unbeaten tennis team destroys Reagan keep working’,” Ferebee said after the Reagan match. “I think we have a team where complacency is not going to be a problem.”Davie swept singles. Elliot New-some (6-1, 6-1), Corbin Drum (6-3, 6-2), Bailey Aderhold (6-0, 6-0), Leah Gibson (6-1, 6-3), Casey Cao (6-0, 6-1) and Kate Chaffin (5-7, 6-1, 10-8) posted a quick 6-0 score. It was a fierce match on court six, where Chaffin rallied after dropping the first set and remained undefeated as a freshman. “If you didn’t tell anyone and you just saw the way both of them were hitting, you would have thought it was a three- or four-seed match,” Ferebee said. “On pa-per it was a six seed match, but they were playing at a much higher level of tennis than that. To lose a tight first set and then come back and win 6-1 in the second, there’s something to be said about her mental game.”In doubles, Newsome/Gibson won 8-1 and Drum/Aderhold won 8-3 as Davie extended its winning streak over Reagan to seven. Since starting the season at No. 6, Aderhold has gone nuts, climbing all the way up the ladder to three. “She didn’t have a great tryout, but it wasn’t just that Bailey wasn’t playing great,” he said. “It’s that the other girls really worked in the offseason and improved.“I told them before the season: We’ve got seven starters for six spots. Somebody’s not going to be happy, but you have to understand at the end of the day, we’re one team with one goal. And no one’s complained and no one’s cried and pitched a fit. They have all made everyone better in practice.”Davie 8, Tabor 1 Davie kicked more butt when it hosted Mt. Tabor on Aug. 28. Newsome (6-0, 6-0), Drum (6-2, 6-0), Aderhold (6-4, 2-1 retired), Cao (6-2, 6-0) and Chaffin (6-0, 6-0) clinched victory in singles. Drum/Aderhold (8-3), Newsome/Ola Lezczuk (8-0) and Cao/Chaffin (8-0) swept doubles. “At practice and after the match, I said: ‘Do you know what a good player who wins on an off day is called? You’re a great player because the difference between good and great is you can win when it’s not your best’,” Ferebee said. “In this match, you saw that because they didn’t play great but got the win.”The only loss was Gibson and her opponent at No. 4 and it went for two hours, 17 minutes. The scores were 6-7, 6-4, 3-10. “(Gibson’s) really improved a ton,” he said. “If she continues to use this as a learning process and see what she can improve on, I think she’s going to take that and run with it because Leah is one who reflects on herself in a positive way. And I think she can absolutely turn it around.”Gibson’s marathon match kept her out of doubles, so Ferebee moved Lezczuk up to No. 2 and plugged in Cao at No. 3. “I talked to Ola and I said: ‘Hey, if you want to play today, you’ve got to play up and play with Elliot at two,’” he said. “She said: ‘I like being on the same side of the net as her.’”Notes: Davie (5-0 overall, 4-0 CPC) has outscored opponents 42-3. ... Davie has 11 straight wins over Tabor. ... Five singles players have 5-0 records: Newsome, Drum, Aderhold, Cao and Chaffin. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record One week after Jayce Bentley put up 123 receiving yards in the sea-son-opening win over Mooresville, Ian Patton stole the spotlight in the Davie JV football team’s 40-26 win at West Rowan on Aug. 29. Patton was a breakout star with six catches for 138 yards. “Ian had an incredible night,” offensive coordinator Matt Gould said of the sophomore. “It was one of those things where the matchups and how they were playing, Ian had a great matchup and we were on his side of the field. He stepped up and made a bunch of plays.”Davie exploded to a 20-0 lead in the first quarter. The Falcons showed heart by pulling within 20-13 at By Brian PittsEnterprise Record It looks like the Ellis football team is a force to be reckoned with after outscoring the first two op-ponents 58-0. The visiting Jaguars handed North Davie a 30-0 thrashing on Aug. 27. Bowman Blakley had two touch-downs, one on a 63-yard pass from Mason Driver and the other on a run. Ellis’ loaded backfield includes Cam James. Everyone knows about Coy James, the dynamic baseball player who might be a high draft pick next July in the Major League Draft. Watching Coy’s brother come up will be thrilling as well. Cam is a 6-2, 212-pound seventh grader. “Cam is pretty dang good,” assis-tant coach Mike Morgan said. “Cam and Bowman have been absolute bruisers in the backfield.” Making highlight plays for Ellis were Wade Hefner, Henry Miglia-rese and Graham Wood. Hefner and Wood had interceptions. “Wade, one of our most improved players, made a great diving catch on a two-point conversion,” Morgan said. “Wade and Henry put a lot of pressure on the quarterback.“Our coaches (Roger Blalock, Joe Burchette, Larry Williams and Morgan) feel like we improved a lot between games one and two.”Morgan gave high praise to the new head coach and athletic director at Ellis - Larry Williams, who came over from Oak Grove Middle after leading the Grizzlies to an incredible 56-game winning streak. “I’ve been here since this place opened,” Morgan said. “It’s been a godsend getting Larry from Oak Grove. He’s doing a fabulous job as AD. - best thing that has happened to our athletic program in years. Him agreeing to be the head football coach is the reason I unretired from coaching. You really need at least two sets of eyes and ears in the building with the kids everyday. I’ve coached football since 1993 and I’ve had the good fortune to work with a lot of good coaches. He’s one of the best.”The Wildcats fell to 1-1 while losing to Ellis for the sixth straight time. Moor 16, South 0South Davie’s defense played extremely well at Mooresville. The downside: The Tigers (1-1) threw four interceptions and the Red Imps returned two of them for touch-downs to account for the only two TDs in the game. halftime and tying things at 20 in the third quarter. But Davie imme-diately responded with a tiebreaking touchdown, and it sailed the rest of the way. One of Patton’s connections with quarterback Draeton Nance was a 32-yard TD. “Ian’s one of the better athletes,” Gould said. “He caught a couple little flat routes, broke some tackles, got up the sidelines and showed a little speed. In his second year, I think he’s more comfortable. He went out there and made plays we haven’t seen from him. It was his breakout night.“They were paying a lot of attention to Noah (Dulin).

Not only did he complete 13 of 20 passes for 225 yards and two TDs, he ran for three scores. “Drae had a great night,” Gould said. “(Nance) had some really good passes throughout the night,” coach Spencer Pasci-olla said. Bentley (6-62 receiving) played a big role for the second week in a row. Noah Dulin, Cam Knox and Blake French had one catch each. “Jayce had a good night, too,” Gould said. “It was just how they were playing their defense. They left (Patton and Bentley) with good one-on-ones and we were able to take advantage.”Brandon Forrest (five car-ries for 55 yards) and Javon Carter (12-54 rushing) com-plemented the passing game by combining for 109 rushing yards. “We have multiple guys who can carry the ball, and that’s always a good thing,” Pasciolla said. “We were fresh and they weren’t. That helped us out a lot.”Defensively, the head-liners were linemen Jathan Redmond and Ean Click and linebackers Luke Foster, Jackson Meadwell and Finley Sink. “I thought Jathan had a really good night,” Pascio-lla said. “He played really well off the edge, as did Ean Click. I noticed Luke Foster JVs ... and Jackson Meadwell every time I looked up. I saw Finley Sink make some really good plays.”On the offensive line, Gould said tackles Aiden Houser and Sammy Angell deserved some praise. Chris-tian Collins got a few snaps at tackle. “We were able to get a lot of the passes out on time and hit a couple of big runs,” Gould said. “Our tackles were able to seal the edge a lot on those big runs and let us get to the outside.” 6319 Cook Ave, Suite 208 | Clemmons, NC 27012 336-766-6488 cooleyroofing.com Siding Roofing Windows Local, Trusted, Quality Services Under One Roof • Free Estimates • Over 30 Years Experience (336) 751-2304 MILLEREQUIPMENTRENTAL FALL IS COMING!

Whit Merrifield went 5 for 5 in an Atlanta win at Minnesota on Aug. 26, lifting his average to .313 in 26 games with the Braves. Then he went 0-fer in the next four games. Baseball is just a funny game. But back to Merrifield’s big night in Minnesota. He matched his career high in hits by singling in the first Merrifield goes 5 for 5 for Braves Get it weekly! with a subscription to the Davie County Enterprise Record Only $32.03 in Davie County Call Today! 336-751-2120 inning, doubling in the sec-ond and singling in the third, the sixth and the eighth to help the Braves win 10-6. At this point, Merrifield’s numbers with the Braves were .313 average, .427 on-base percentage, .450 slug-ging percentage and .877 OPS. Compare that to his 53 games with the Phillies, who released Merrifield on July 12: .199 average, .277 OBP, .295 slugging and .572 OPS. “I know I can do it,” Merrifield told reporters. “You’re not gonna get five hits every night, but some- times when the stars align, take advantage. That’s kind of what happened tonight.”When Merrifield got re-leased by the Phils, he came home to Davie County and was enjoying just being a dad. (He became a first-time father in March.) But then Atlanta Ozzie Albies broke his wrist and the Braves needed help at second base. Merrifield said he had offers from the Yankees and the Braves. He signed a one-year deal with the Braves. A big turnaround ensued. After only managing 31 hits for the Phillies, Merrifield had 25 hits in his first 26 games with the Braves. “He’s just a pro,” Atlanta first baseman Matt Olson said. “Nobody’s shocked. He could go out any time and do that. He’s working counts, he’s shooting (balls through) the holes, he’s driv-ing balls to gaps, he’s able to run the bases, play good defense. You can’t just find guys to pick up and plug in like that very often. We got lucky that he was out there when something happened to Ozzie, and he’s fit in per- fectly in the clubhouse and on the field for us.”After going 5 for 5, Mer-rifield felt the opposite end of the spectrum in the next game, going 0 for 6. He went through an 0-for-20 stretch before going 1-4 on Saturday.

The result was the second tie of the young season, 0-0.Davie could not get the win even though it dominat-ed the shots 13-7. “We played great, but again we couldn’t get it in the back of the net,” coach Russ Fisher said. “We were all over it, but couldn’t get it in.”As the score reflects, Davie couldn’t have played any better on the defensive end. Goalie Felipe Flores had seven saves and Zach Hill, Alex Torres, Hernan Granadero and Karson Kate Sakai birdied No. 7 at Oak Valley and shot a 9-over 45 in the senior’s season debut on Aug. 22. Sakai, Kori Bailey (49) and Gwynyth Swan (52) led Davie to an easy 146-170 win over West Forsyth. The Central Piedmont Conference opener was held four days later at Wilshire. South Davie’s girls ten-nis team defeated North Davie 6-3 last week. The South winners in sin-gles were Clara Parsley (8-2 at No. 1), Kady Joyce (8-0 at No. 2), Amelia Elledge (8-3 at No. 3) and Emma Grace Snow (8-2 at No. 5). North got singles wins from Caroline Schneider (8-6 at No. 4) and Miriam Spann (8-6 at No. 6). Winning in doubles for South were Parsley/Joyce (8-1 at No. 1) and Snow/Ky-lie Edwards (8-3 at No. 3). Audrey Sales and Spann won 8-6 at No. 2 doubles for North. Davie was fourth out of six teams. Reagan was first at 119, followed by West For-syth (124), Reynolds (136), Davie 144), Mt. Tabor (159) and East Forsyth (170). Sakai paced Davie again, this time with an 11-over 47. Reese Ward and Bailey shot 48 and 49, respectively. Yount formed a strong wall in the back. “Felipe definitely stepped up. He kept us in it,” Fisher said. “The back line played great. Zach had a great game. He was chasing down people right and left.”The tie left the Vikings at 2-1-1. Two nights later on the road, Davie hung close with an unbeaten opponent but fell short 2-0. Salisbury (4-0-1) got both goals in the first half. Davie’s record slipped to 2-2-2. Davie’s JV lost 3-1 at South Iredell. The halftime score was 1-1 as Talan An-drade scored with an assist from Ronald Perez. Davie entered the week with an 0-1-1 record.

Here is a trip down memory lane to 2006. You won’t see a better shootout than the one Davie and West Rowan delivered at War Eagle Stadium before 4,500 euphoric fans. In a much-hyped non-conference showdown that featured unimaginable offen-sive displays, one tide-turning play after another and a wild finish, the War Eagles sur-vived 47-37 to take a major step forward in their hopes for a perfect regular season. When the highest-scoring game in Davie history was over, there were exhausted bodies on both sides. The War Eagles were deliriously happy as they celebrated revenge for a 17-13 loss at West in 2005. What they did will be recounted for years to come because West had not lost in the regular season in 17 games, it had four punishing runners and it had vaunted units on both lines. “That was a bunch of war-riors in the trenches, trading punches every round,” Davie coach Doug Illing said. “It was punch after punch after punch. That’s just two good teams going at it. It was really fun to watch.”The Falcons, who ended Davie’s regular-season win-ning streak at 16 in 2005, kneeled quietly in stinging heartbreak. “My guys battled and fought,” West coach Scott Young said. “Their team battled and fought. They could have rolled over when we stormed back. Our kids could have rolled over at the half. I hate we had to lose, but you’ve got to take your hat off to them.”The action-packed game had it all. There was a 28-7 Davie eruption that gave the War Eagles (3-0) a 28-10 lead. Then there was a 20-0 West explosion that gave the Falcons a 30-28 lead. The overflow crowd saw the teams combine for 12 touchdowns, three TDs in a span of 3:56, 40 first downs and 1,030 yards. “I’m wore slap out,” Da-vie defensive tackle Chantz Grannaman said. “The only one above this is the Scotland County game in the playoffs last year.”“It’s the biggest game in my life,” Davie receiver Kenny Rivers said. “That’s one team I wanted to beat. To score 47 points on that team, when they supposedly have the best defensive line, makes me feel good.”“That was the craziest game,” Davie left tackle Mar-cus Untz said. “Oh my gosh, my adrenaline was pumping the entire time. The first two games were blowouts, and this game really showed our character and shows how good a team we are.”The War Eagles’ won-derboy quarterback (junior Garrett Benge) threw for 384 yards on 19-of-28 passing, and their phenomenal receiv-er (Rivers) had seven catches for 194 yards. Benge broke his own record for passing yards in a game, and Rivers was three yards shy of the Da-vie record for receiving yards. But many guys helped pull off the win. Kenneth Brown rushed for 105 yards in his third straight tri-ple-digit effort. Grannaman stopped a third-and-1 run with Davie nursing a 34-30 lead. Perry James made two adrenaline-pumping plays at cornerback, including a game-clinching pick-6. The big grunts - Untz, Derrek Abendroth, Kevin Boehm, Michael Murphy, Tony Steele and Drew Kakouras - gave Benge plenty of protection against West’s mighty d-line. And oh by the way, the di-versified offense got four receptions for 102 yards from Chris Kinard. Rivers had mind-boggling catch in ‘06 shootout “It’s hard to give up 37 points and feel good, but I feel like I’ve been in a fight with Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier,” Davie defensive coordinator Devore Holman said. “They’re the best team we’ve ever seen up front. They blow Independence out of the water,” left guard Abendroth said. “But we’ve bonded real good. I think it’s like it was (in 2004, when Davie went 14-1). We’ve bonded like that team. If we keep going like this, I think we’ll be talked about for a long time.”“That felt like a 40-round fight,” defensive tackle Nic O’Brien said. “The offense saved our butts all night long. We let them down a bunch, but we kept digging in at the end when it really mattered.”After Davie fumbled and West hit a short field goal, Davie answered in spectacu-lar fashion, with Benge firing a 78-yard TD to Kinard, who caught the bomb five steps behind the defender. The next time Davie got the ball, it blasted 84 yards down the field. Benge, who is always calm, left folks grasping for superlatives to describe a 5-for-5 drive. He hit Kinard for 9 yards. He hit Rivers for 14 and 16 yards. He’ll throw over one defender and under another, and he checked off receivers downfield and flicked short ones to James Mayfield and Brown that resulted in 17 and 15 yards. Benge sneaked in from the 1, and a James-to-Rivers two-point pass gave Davie a 15-3 lead. Thanks to a 54-yard punt return by Richo Bridges, West’s offense started at the Davie 16, ran the ball three straight times and got back in the game at 15-10. Benge came right back with a pair of 33-yard com-pletions to Rivers. Then he pitched to Mayfield, who knifed through two would-be tacklers for a 9-yard TD. Moments later, Mayfield turned an innocent pass into a 13-yard gain, bringing gasps from the crowd when he juked a guy out of his cleats. Davie made the 86-yard drive look ridiculously easy, with Benge lofting a 26-yard pass to Riv-ers, who tiptoed the back of the end zone. Michael Rowe’s extra point pushed the lead to 28-10 with 43 seconds left in the half. Davie could have had a commanding halftime lead, but West QB Jamel Carpenter connected with Brantley Hor-ton for 45 yards to the Davie 4, and West scored on the next play to pull within 28-16. At halftime, Benge was 14 of 18 for 283 yards. “You can’t get any better than that,” Rivers said. The third quarter was all West, its well-oiled ground game churning out 62 of 85 yards on a 20-play surge that milked 10:10 off the click. Kevin Parks (17 carries, 124 yards), Mike McGorda and Jamie Chambers hammered through the heart of Davie’s defense as West converted four third-down situations. But it was Carpenter (17 carries for 88 yards, six com-pletions for 171 yards) who stole the show. He cut back for 9 yards on fourth-and-2 and scored on a sneak. The West faithful were fired up with Davie’s lead trimmed to 28-23. “Jamel did some special things,” Young said. Now the War Eagles were the ones stumbling, going 3-and-out and watching Parks rip off 40 yards for a go-ahead TD. After two scores in 1:44, West had a 30-28 lead. But Benge stole the mo-mentum back in dramatic style. Flushed out of the pock-et, he lowered his head and rambled 48 yards around right end for a 34-30 lead. “This is my top emotional game of all time,” Benge said. “It was unbelievable.” Benge’s amazing run saw beautiful downfield blocks from receivers Kinard and Heath Boyd, who had his guy on skates. “Without Heath’s block, I never score,” Benge said. West roared back in front on an 89-yard connection from Carpenter to Horton. West had a 37-34 lead with 5:45 remaining. West’s all-star defensive end, Tristan Dorty, sacked Benge on first down, and West was three plays from putting Davie to bed. But on second-and-17 from the Davie 24, Rivers made an incredible 29-yard catch over the middle. Benge’s pass appeared overthrown, but the 6-3 Rivers reached high with his left hand, tumbled to the ground and somehow maintained possession for a one-handed, you-had-to-see-it-to-believe-it catch. “I thought it was way overthrown,” Illing said. “I think Rivers is big-time,” Young said. “How does he come down with that?” Holman said. Two plays later, Rivers turned a short route into 43 yards. He made West pay for one-on-one coverage, did a wicked spin move and wasn’t caught until he reached the West 5. Brown scored on the next play, didn’t get up and was carried off the field with cramps. With Davie leading 41-37 and 3:09 left, there was bed-lam all around the stadium. Ninety seconds later, James denied West’s hopes for a sixth lead change, the sopho-more cornerback intercepting Carpenter and returning it 40 yards for the clinching TD. The shootout will always be remembered for Rivers’ sensational snag. “You can watch any col-lege game on Saturday or any pro game on Sunday and you won’t see a better catch than that,” assistant coach Randy Athey said. “Oh my gosh, I couldn’t believe he came down with that,” Benge said. “I thought I overthrew it. When something like that happens, something just unbelievable happens, you’re going to score. That was a total momentum shift.” Regular Hours: M-F 8:30-8 • Sat 8:30-1 • Sun 1:30-5 495 Valley Road • Mocksville • 336-751-2141 www.fosterdrug.com PARTICIPATING PROVIDER 1/2 LITER CHEERWINEPRODUCTS (Includes regular & diet varieties of: Cheerwine, Sun Drop, Sunkist, RC Cola, 7UP, Canada Dry, and Diet Rite) $14/case Limit 8 Cases SHOP FOSTER DRUG For all your household supplies! • Dishwashing Liquid • Soaps • Cleaners • Spices • & MORE!

The Parks and Recreation Authority approved the matching grants Aug. 23.Davie’s project is the acquisition and development for Lake Louise Park off US 64 East, Mocksville.Local governments applied to PARTF to fund land acquisition, and de-velopment and renovation of public park and recreation areas. Every year, the authority allocates to municipalities and counties 30 percent of PARTF’s funding. A maximum of $500,000 can be awarded to a single project, and the awardees must match funds at least dollar-for-dollar. This year, the authority considered 40 grant applications requesting a total of more than $15.1 mil-lion.“North Carolinians love their parks and recreation areas,” said N.C. Department of Natural and Cultural Resources Secretary D. Reid Wilson. “These projects will enhance quality of life, improve health, and strengthen local economies.”“Over the last 30 years, PARTF has provided more than $800 million in improved state parks, local parks, and coastal access,” said State Parks Director Brian Strong. “These awards continue a wonderful year celebrating the impact of PARTF on North Carolina residents. We look forward to new and updated parks, facilities, and trails in the coming years from this year’s grantees.”A second round of funding for the Accessible Parks Grant will open in September. Over $4 million in funding will be available.

Davie County Schools received $36,923 for arts programs and adminis-trative support in the Grassroots Arts Program.Funding priorities included projects that:• emphasize community outreach and audience engagement;• improve organizational capacity and capabilities; • connect K–12 students with artists in a range of disciplines, notably the traditional arts of North Carolina;• foster public-private partnerships that leverage state and federal funding with local support; and• provide outreach to military service men and women, veterans, and their families.“The record number of applications we received signals that artists are in-spiring audiences and producing experiences that make our state a wonderful place to live, work, and visit,” said Jeff Bell, the council’s director.
