Senior Tar Heel Legislature are sending to legislators.Older adults contribute untold millions to the state’s economy through volunteerism and activities that sup-port the prosperity of their adult children and grandchil-dren, said Allison Brown, Davie’s NCSTHL delegate. “The NCSTHL proposes to honor the lifelong contri-butions of the state’s older adults, to preserve their dig-nity, to ensure their continued productivity and well-be-ing, and to safeguard the ability to age in places of their choice,” she said. “Enacting these recommendations serves to avoid or postpone the far more costly option of long-term care placement and to protect our most frail and vulnerable adults. State appropriations to support more fiscally-responsible in-home services are approximately 0.17% of the state budget, and the older adult segment of 24% of the state’s population deserves greater support from the state.”After months of study and deliberation, NCSTHL members de- Older adults list legislative priorities Allison Brown termined that these legislative priorities are among the most pressing issues facing our older adult population across the state, she said.Speaker Woody Brinson said: “Through enactment of legislation to address these needs, the North Carolina General Assem-bly would have the greatest positive impact on the quality of life and health outcomes for all our seniors.”The priority recommendations:• Older Adult Housing. Alleviate the severe housing shortage by supporting the availability of safe, affordable, and accessible housing for older adults and help older adults age in place in their homes. • Healthcare Workforce Crisis. Alleviate the critical shortage of healthcare workers, especially workers pro-viding personal physical care, by addressing the work-force crisis through expanded financial incentives and support for individuals pursuing those careers.• Nursing Home Staffing Standards. Strengthen nurs-ing home staffing standards by adopting a state required minimum at least equal to the current federal regulatory standard of 3.48 hours per resident per day.• Long Term Care Ombudsman Program. Strengthen the state’s ombudsman program by addressing staffing concerns associated Please See Priorities - Page 5 There are always some safe and fun antics from the resi- dents on North Main Street in Mocksville.

For Hamlet Arias Jr., a freshman:, “It’s what I eat. It’s what I celebrate. It’s how I live my life.” Each year, the SGA hosts an event featuring food, games, and dancing to commemorate the lives and contributions of Hispan-ic Americans. “[Hispanic Heritage Month] is when people like me can cel-ebrate what our ancestors and other important figures have done for us so that we are where we are today,” said Jaretzy Saligan, a se-nior and the 2023-24 president of the SGA.This holiday is observed in the United States for four weeks starting on Sept. 15 due to the ‘It’s how I live my life’ Early College students celebrate Hispanic heritage Please See Hispanic - Page 10 Mocksville has long cemented itsself as the place to be on Hal-loween.The streets are filled with young ghosts and goblins, prin-cesses and superheroes.

Tell us what you think The Literary Corner: Renegade Writer’s Guild Independent’s View To the editor:I noticed in the Oct. 17 edition of the Enterprise the sample ballot presented by the Republican Party and that their sug-gested plan includes voting "yes" for the change in wording of our NC Constitution regarding who can vote in our elec-tions. Regardless of your party affiliation, and even though the Republican Party suggests you vote "Yes" for this change, I would caution both voters and the Party on doing so.I believe that, based on what has happened in our news media in the past three years, it is absolutely necessary that the wording of our current Constitution not be changed. As we have all heard as they speak, the mainstream news per-sonalities now use the words "resident" and "citizen" inter-changeably and this has become the new normal. Now the terms "legal citizen" and "legal resident" mean the same thing, just as the terms "illegal citizen" and "illegal resident" mean the same thing. The reality is that a "citizen" and a "res-ident" are both now generally accepted terminology for any-one living in our state, and our nation, regardless of whether here legally or illegally. The thing that makes the distinction now that the words "citizen" and "resident" are generally used interchangeably is whether or not the citizen/resident is here legally due to either being born here or having become a naturalized citizen/resident by going through our previously established legal channel to obtain that status. If one is a citizen/resident just living here but has not become a legal citizen/resident by one of these two means, that person is an illegal citizen/resident.I make this point because the constant recent interchange-able use of the words "citizen" and "resident" to mean the same thing throughout our media has now made it so. The use is so prevalent that it has become accepted in the English lan-guage. As a result, if we vote to remove the words "legal" and "naturalized" citizen (aka 'resident') from our state Constitu-tion, any illegal person living in our state could file a lawsuit against our state to obtain such legal status based on the fact that our Constitution would no longer stipulate that one must be a legal citizen/resident due to either birth or legal process.Based on this, a lower court would be justified in allow-ing illegal resident/citizens to vote in all elections. And if a lower court were to uphold the current position that the ille-gal person wishing to vote could not do so, and that decision was then appealed to the state Supreme Court or on up to the US Supreme Court, it is highly likely that those courts would look at our original wording and compare it to the new wording resulting from voting "Yes" on this 2024 ballot. They would then likely decide that the majority in our state legally voted to change the specific wording by removing the terms "legal" and "naturalize" from our Constitution, thereby allow-ing illegals residing in our state to begin voting as proposed effective January 2025. Such a decision by an upper court would mean that anyone living in our state, whether legal or illegal, would be allowed to vote in every election, on every proposal and every issue, on a federal, state or local ballot taking place in North Carolina beginning January 2025.Is that really a can of worms we want to open? As was recently stated in an article regarding discussion on this is-sue with Margaret Taylor, a law professor at Wake Forest: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." A majority vote of "Yes" on this referendum would pave the way for potential litigation and problems for our state and, depending on the future makeup of both NC State and US Federal Supreme courts, could deep-ly affect our state's future.Additionally and aside from the NC State Constitution proposed amendment, I would laugh at the constant rhetoric in the Harris/Walz ads saying that Donald Trump plans to give huge tax cuts to "all of the rich millionaires and billionaires" were their lie in this statement not so serious. Just think about what they're saying and how ridiculous they sound. First, Trump never did this during his first Presidency during which the working class Americans became more financially stable as their income improved during his time in office. Secondly, the ironic part of the Harris/Walz claim is that if what they are saying were true, it would be them and all of their wealthy friends like Obama, the Clintons, Pelosi, Biden, the "ladies" of The View, the celebrities like George Clooney, Oprah and all of the other elite Trump detractors that would benefit from such tax cuts. So are they saying they're going to get the tax cuts they're talking about? No, they would never admit that; they just hope we lowly Americans don't figure out the ridic-ulousness of their claim. They're more likely just irritated and lying about his actual plan to again help the working class and let the rich elites worry about themselves. There is no apparent reason whatsoever to believe that Donald Trump would do anything other than what he did to turn this country around during his first term as President, a tenure during which the working class grew to be in far better financial shape and our world was at peace due to the respect the leaders of other countries, particularly hostile countries, had because they knew President Trump would be true to his word. I am a registered Independent voter, and I can easily see that Trump is the far better candidate to improve the situation in our country and the status of our country in the world's eyes.Gaye Schooler, Mocksville ‘No’ to Constitutional Amendment; ‘Yes’ to Trump To the editor:Wow, Mr. Sobotta. Just wow. Your letter of Oct. 18, regarding “being an informed vot-er” was spot on. I label myself as an Independent (voter reg-istration requires a label), but I apply the same logic as you have presented to all the candidates: what is important to me, to my community and our country. Beyond the Presidential race, this same rigorous examination needs to be done for our state and local officials, arguably the people that have an even more direct impact on our daily lives.Issues I look for beyond the standard character, honesty (oxymoron?) and willingness to do right for their constituents are things like “gaming” the systems, opaqueness, nepotism, and allegiance to the large corporations and “hidden money” (Citizens United v FEC). I will make only general statements here, as there are many fine individuals throughout our local and state government but there are also concerns that come from our state legislature as a whole. To state just several egregious issues: gerrymandering. It must be removed from the ruling party’s authority and given to either a bi-partisan committee or better yet, an independent group. Transparency: Being bestowed the infamous “Black Hole Award” by the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ), our legislatures slid in a paragraph or two in the budget bill reading “Using the term ‘custodian’ to indicate a legislator, the budget reads: “the custodian of any General Assembly re-cord shall determine, in the custodian’s discretion, whether a record is a public record and whether to turn over to the Department of Natural and Cultural Resources, or retain, de-stroy, sell, loan, or otherwise dispose of, such records.”What? Gerrymandering and the secrecy law issues, my fellow voters, are the very definition of unmitigated gall.Another issue is school vouchers. When should our tax dollars go to any income group to circumvent our public school system for private schools, charter, Christian or oth-erwise? Lastly, we need to research and hold our NC Supreme Court Judges accountable. There have been some startling judgements that have been issued by the new majority. So please review the candidates running. One source is https://www.ncsbe.gov/voting/upcoming-election/judicial-vot-er-guide-2024-general-election. I am encouraged that if we follow the tried-and-true ex-ercise of researching the candidates via mainstream, trusted sources to understand their position on matters that effect you, we will “hire” the right people to do the job we entrust them to do, represent us.Christian AndersonMocksville Learn about the candidates before voting To the editor:Voters “be not deceived” when selecting your choice on the NC State Amendment on this year’s ballot. Get all the information you can on this amendment, as the wrong choice will make it much easier for non-citizens to vote in NC elections in the future. The new Amendment as stated on the ballot leaves out two important phrases: “Every person born in the United States and every person who has been naturalized.” Without these two phrases, it means any citizen living in the United States, whether legal or illegal. This will drastically change our state’s power to effect the changes that we who are both born in, and/or naturalized, will be able to make. Not enough has been said by our politicians and represen-tatives to make this clear, and we are already casting our votes without enough being said on this subject. Please take notice.Faye HutchinsMocksville Voters, do not be deceived Pen PalsBy Marie CraigOur Senior Center is sponsoring a very interesting Pen Pal project of matching older Davie residents with seniors in our Davie County High School. I have received two letters from a high school senior and have responded. It’s been interesting to learn more about this person’s interests and education. I’ve shared what I remember of my senior year in high school: wearing a skirt or dress to school, boys with crew cuts, riding the school bus because no student owned their own car, no phones, and ushering in Rock and Roll. This reminded me that my mother, in 1929-30, as a stu-dent going to Mitchell College in Statesville had a pen pal in Mexico to further her use of Spanish. She had kept these fifteen letters and some memorabilia he had sent her. I am the owner of these now, and I dug them out of a lower dress-er drawer and have painstakingly typed his cursive, beautiful handwriting into Google Documents. I don’t know Span-ish, but it was fairly easy to type these foreign words. I was stunned that this program knows Spanish, and was able to suggest better spellings and the addition of accents and marks above the letters. I would type a paragraph, copy it, and paste it into Google Translate which would immediately give me the English words. Then I would copy those and paste them into the English section of my document. It took me about five days to do this because some of the letters were long. I learned a few repeating words as I typed all these letters. Please See Renegade ‑ Page 3 If you’re driving into Mocksville from points east - slow down.Starting Monday, there will be new stop signs on North Main Street (US 158 after it leaves the town limits) at Milling Road.It’s the best, affordable solution to a problem that con-tinues to get worse as more development occurs on Milling Road, Bethel Church Road and Crotts Road. Drivers at the Milling Road stop sign sometimes put their lives on the line when driving onto North Main because you can’t see very far.Re-aligning Milling Road to Campbell Road just cost way too much, and would mean historic properties would have to be moved or demolished. A stoplight was considered, but that, too, was expensive and likely would not have happened otherwise.So now, it will be a three-way stop.That’s a good, if only temporary, solution.The problem is that drivers come into town in a hurry. They leave that way, too.Remember, when you enter the Mocksville town limits just down the road on US 158, there is a stop sign ahead. It will be a three-way stop, with traffic stopping in all direc-tions, a first-come first-serve way to enter the intersection.Our town and state transportation officials have spent quite a bit of money around here lately, most of it good. The only boondoggle as I see it was the crosswalks put at the stop-light in the center of town. It is absolutely the most dangerous place to cross the street in Downtown Mocksville, and you wouldn’t believe the confused looks you see on pedestrians as they try to figure out how to get to where they want to go. It makes no sense when you think of how many streets pedestrians have to cross just to get to the other side. There are drivers going straight, turning left, turning right in both directions. The drives around court square must be navigated as well, which unnecessarily increases the danger when all you want to do is get to the other side of the street.Then we have the roundabouts. They’re popping up every-where, almost as quickly as Dollar Generals. The questions surrounding the validity of these roundabouts is still out. The roundabout in town, where Wilkesboro and Meroney streets, Yadkinville Road and Mumford Drive meet, is the best decision the DOT has made in years. This one works perfectly. And yes, it will work even better when us country folks get used to driving around them.Just remember, slow down when you get to town. You’re not only sharing the road with more motorists, there are pe-destrians.- Mike Barnhardt Stop signs being added to North Main To the editor:Hope, our young heroine, laughed loudly while driving on I-40 past the eyesore tractor trailer that proudly proclaimed "Trump County." "Why," Hope wondered, "would anyone want to besmirch citizens of a whole county as incapable of seeing through the wicked con played by the Orange One for the past eight years? The exhausting constant toxic deluge of cruelty, hatred, mal-ice, threats of violence, and vulgarity from that humbug and his sycophants clearly mark the charlatan's Magaette move-ment as dangerous to any sane world. And the thousands of painfully obvious lies and lies about the lies. Such as . . . "That socialist-Marxist-Trotskyite-communist-godless democrats will flood your neighborhoods with millions of black aliens to seize your guns, take your jobs and homes, change your kids' genders while they're at school, replace your vote, kill you every time you go out to shop, and eat your pets. The Orange One condemns these mythical non-whites as criminals, killers, and mental patients. Humanity does not belong to them."That during natural disasters in Magaette states - creat-ed by the federal government seeding storm clouds - victims who support the Orange One can expect only $750 per person in preparation for democrats' secret plan to seize all the 'red' victims' property after giving the monies earmarked for such tragedies to those aliens. Rather than practically help com-munities overwhelmed by winds and waters, apparently it's better to criminally exploit long-term tragedies for temporary political leverage. The truth of climate change does not be-long to them."That pregnant women automatically become instruments of production controlled by male-dominated state legislatures untrained in science and blinded by ancient standards. Their bodies do not belong to them. "That offensive books corrupt the young who come into contact with them, even if never read books.

(Ironically, if the Orange One's reprobate life were a printed book on the shelves of the local library, self-appointed puritan censors determined to ban all chal-lenging books would immediately demand it removed and, perhaps inspired by the 1930s, burned publicly.)"That the Orange One's insurrection in Washington, DC on Jan. 6, 2020 was 'a day of love' rather than the most violent domestic attack on our constitution since the Civil War. The promise of a peaceful transition of power, even with a clear winner, does not belong to them. "That only the Orange One can solve the problems of or-dinary people by lowering taxes on his rich friends, raising tariffs on all goods (which unfortunately will burden those poorer folks by thousands of dollars each), rounding up and tossing all 'illegal aliens' (modeled on the fascist concentra-tion camps of the 1930s), and providing greater freedom and security by siccing our military on his many opponents. These lies mask the three reasons why this convicted criminal seeks high office again: to enrich himself (always the bottom line), to punish his enemies that work to preserve the republic from this tin-horn dictator, and to keep out of the prison cell he has so richly earned. 'Justice for all' does not belong to them all."The saddest aspect of this malicious fraud lies in the historical reality that over 400,000 Americans died in World War II to preserve their homes from the same Orange fascist threats prevalent today. Like thousands of communities across the country, this one probably holds a solemn monument hon-oring the dozens if not hundreds of local citizens who sacri-ficed their lives on foreign soils to preserve an America made great by its rich history of diversity and tradition of personal freedom - not some false narrative perpetuated by self-serv-ing grievances, of a return to a past that never existed . . . and thankfully never will."So, our Hope drove steadily on, optimistic that human goodness, decency, and practical wisdom would prevail at the ballot box even in so-called "Trump Country." Charles McAllisterMocksville Continued From Page B2The envelopes still exist which tells me when she lived with her sister and her family in Statesville. I used Google Maps to see that the house still stands. Part of the time she lived in the dorm at school. Then in the summers the letters came to her parents’ farm in Sheffield. It is amazing how few words on an envelope from Mexico could find their way to her.He discussed Nov. 1, Day of the Dead, which is a great way to remember our ancestors. He listed his nine siblings by name which I hope to share with other researchers. Personali-ty traits were love of nature and ability to write poetry. I wish I had the letters she sent him in English. I remember playing with the 13 teeny baskets and weaving that he sent her. The fibers are about the width of a human hair. Two of the baskets are about a fourth of an inch across. I remember ask-ing her about the letters after she’d forgotten the Spanish she once knew but she admitted that he became infatuated with her and she broke it off because she didn’t want to leave her family and move to this city in the southern part of Mexico. But the portraits show him to be a very handsome man. I’ve actually been able to go on an Internet genealogical site and learn more about him. Two years after the last letter, he mar-ried and they had several children. He was in school during the letter writing and later became a doctor.I think we all ponder how fate intervenes to dictate our fu-tures. This was a bright spot in her life at one time that didn’t pan out, but I’m sure she treasured his attention. I’m glad she chose to stay in our state, meet my wonderful dad, and create a family -- me. Ce’ad Mile Fa’ilte or Never Too Old to GrowBy Julie Terry CartnerThere’s a fine line between learning to say no and keeping an open mind for new opportunities. This seems to be a lesson I, at least, need to learn periodically. As one who is now des-ignated as a senior citizen, and have often heard, “Oh, you’re retired. You must have plenty of free time,” finding that fine line is crucial to staying in the land of living, active, vibrant adults and being overwhelmed by too much to do, especially having too many responsibilities. Recently I was asked to take a leadership role that I really didn’t want. My career often put me in those types of posi-tions, and quite frankly, I’d be happy if I were never in charge of anything, ever again. And thus, when I was asked, after a surprisingly short deliberation, I said no, though not without some degree of guilt. (I’ll work on that next!) It was a role I could have fulfilled, but I just didn’t want the responsibili-ty. I was rather proud of myself for saying that monosyllabic word, as it historically has not been one that comes easily to me. 118 Hospital st. • Mocksville, Nc 27028 • 336.751.6289 “Because you should want to see your dentist” Accepting Most Major Insurances | RiversFamilyDentistry.com Andrew J.

At about the same time, I was asked to host a table for a fundraiser at my church. As I had just said no to one thing, you’d think it would be easier the second time, but sadly, that was not the case. I opened my mouth to say, “No, that’s just not a skillset that comes naturally to me, so I’d rather not.” In-stead, I heard myself say, “Sure, I’d be glad to.” Immediately, I was horrified at myself. What was I thinking? I don’t even own a set of china!Being me, I told myself – just do it; it’ll be fine. I spent the next two weeks designing my table in my head and shopping for or borrowing the items I needed along with creating and painting the decorations. And you know what? I had fun. I created something that was unique to me and was pleased with the results. Today I set it up in preparation for tomor-row, and I’m sure tomorrow I’ll have a fine time meeting new friends and talking about my theme.For what I decided to do was capitalize on our recent trip to Ireland, so my table’s theme is ce’ad mile fa’ilte [cade me-la fall-cha] which is Irish for a hundred thousand welcomes, a statement that resonates deeply with me. We should welcome new people, new ideas, new philosophies, new challenges, and even things that are outside our comfort zones into our lives no matter what our age is. And we should do so with pleasure, with a sincerely welcoming joy. Isaac Asimov once said, “you are never too old to learn more than you already know and to become able to do more than you already can.” Henry Ford is given credit for saying “Anyone who stops learning is old whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young.” We should, therefore, embrace the culture of ce’ad mile fa’ilte, offering a hundred thousand welcomes to people, ab-solutely, lifelong friends, new friends, and those soon to be friends, but equally, we should open ourselves to new oppor-tunities to grow and learn, and to try things, even if they are outside our comfort zone. Life in ReviewBy Gaye HootsThis morning my granddaughters asked me several ques-tions about my childhood and growing up. This was probably prompted by their looking at old picture albums of mine. The first picture of me is of my mom holding me when I was a few weeks old. Another favorite of mine is Dad holding me under one arm and a beagle pup in the other, both of us flopping from his arms. My best memories are of the first six years of my life spent there with my grandparents. When I was six, Faye was four and Phil had just been born. We moved to Marchmont, and I prepared to start first grade. Mom took me to Jo Cooley in Mocksville to have my long hair bobbed and Faye got the same treatment. Jo was a cosmetologist, and she was in a wheelchair. The impression of this woman overcoming her handicap and supporting her-self left a lifelong impression.Watching Mom take on having our family independent of grandparents to help was another lesson for me as I had only modeled myself after my dad and grandpa except for Kath-leen Burton who held down a public job and wore beautiful clothes to work. Some of my female teachers were added to this list as well.My childhood was a time when adults carried all the re-sponsibility for finances, which I rarely heard mentioned oth-er than being told what we could afford for school clothes, etc. I relied on my dad to provide, protect, and guide us, and felt I was in charge when he was gone. Mom made me stay home if Dad was gone at night. If something frightened her, I investigated and reassured her.I was twelve when we moved to Advance, and here I as-sumed more responsibility, mowing the yard, milking the Jer-sey cow, and doing some household chores. We were never given money to handle other than the sum to purchase certain preapproved items. I have no memories of ever cooking any-thing unless it was in Home Economics where it was prob-ably a group project. I was often given the chore of looking after my siblings and even babysat for a teacher now and then which was the first money I ever earned. This was a proj-ect with Glenda Potts (Boger) and we split the money. There were five children in the family, and the oldest was only six, so we earned our money.Two days after my seventeenth birthday I married Roy Potts and moved into his mom’s house with him. I don’t think I even knew how to boil water, but I mowed the yard. My method of conflict resolution was learned from the men in my family and was probably not well-suited for marriage. I had never shopped for groceries and had no idea how to handle money but had been taught that if you did not have the money to purchase something you did without.This was the sixties when a married woman could not open a checking account or get a credit card in her name. I went to work when I graduated and purchased a used car from my uncle, which my grandfather financed. I learned to manage money and when I divorced, I got a crash course, but I managed. I was able to put myself through undergraduate and graduate school without help from my family and to raise my two girls. When their children were young, we lived on a small acreage tract joining Daddy and Scrip Robertson’s farm. These were good times as the four grandchildren were born in four years and grew up playing together and with the Myers boys.The younger grands and my great-granddaughter also got time on the farm my siblings and I grew up on. The farm experiences were some of the best of my memories. I admit I have traded that for the proximity to the ocean, and my love of nature, family, and God has carried me for seventy-nine years and counting.

Originally, the 40th anni-versary celebration was to be on Sept. 27, as the conclusion of Senior Center Month, but the weather had other plans. The party was rescheduled for Oct. 1. County Commis-sioner, Benita Finney read the history of Davie County Senior Services as well as shared 1984 trivia. Although formally rec-ognized as a Senior Center in 1984, the history of this organization dates back much farther. Details about the early years are sketchy; however, it appears that the first concept of an organized place for Davie seniors to gather dates back to the 1970s, when Yadkin Valley Economic Development Dis-trict (YVEDDI) started the lunch program for seniors. Several activities that inter-ested the seniors were orga-nized and a group of volun-teers got together to form a council. This volunteer group worked to increase the amount of activities for seniors and advocated to form a Senior Center. Their efforts were recognized by then County Manager Charles Mashburn. During the fiscal year of 1983/1984 the county applied for, and received, $24,000 to reno-vate the old school cafeteria in the Brock Building. A new kitchen, sewing room and craft room were constructed. Other activities continued and there became increasing interest in creating a formal Senior Center. In 1984, an advisory committee was formed. Ac-cording to records, original members of this group were Rosie Carter, Mary Buchan-an, Wilma Smith, Marie Miller, Louise Stroud, Grace Shurley, Ruth Brock, Virgin-ia Plott, Henrietta Holman, Prudence Johnson, Rebec-ca Zander and Eva Walden. Louise Stroud remained con-tinuously on the council for 20 years.In 1985, the county was awarded a second grant to begin Phase II of the con-struction and renovation. At that time, Davie County hired their first Senior Cen-ter Director, Kathy Tomlin-son, and made plans to add on another meeting room, office facilities and more restrooms. With the com-pletion of construction and a paid staff person to direct ac-tivities, opportunities for se-niors continued to increase.Over the last 40 years, many changes and contin-ued improvements have oc-curred. In 1997 the Nutrition Pro-gram, which had been instru-mental in the beginnings of the agency, came under the management of the Davie Senior Center. More services continued to be added, and in 2002 county commission-ers voted to formally change the name of the organiza- tion to Davie County Senior Services. This name change more adequately described the scope of offerings.Today, Davie County Se-nior Services plays a vital role in the community. Their mission is to provide seniors with accessible services and opportunities for fellowship, fun and learning through activities and programs that enrich lives. That mission is accomplished through numerous programs and ac-tivities including exercise classes, Yoga, Zumba, social events, day trips, educational seminars, intergenerational programs, health screenings, community events, the dai-ly lunch program, seasonal parties, and volunteer op-portunities. Services include homebound meals, caregiver support program, insurance assistance, and two profes-sional social workers who can assist seniors in obtain-ing a wide variety of infor-mation and services.As the focal point for ag-ing services in Davie Coun-ty, they serve the community by providing information and education on aging relat-ed topics. A task force was formed 20 years ago with funding from the NC General As-sembly to make plans for the building Senior Services building today – the Bobby H. Knight Senior Services Building, which opened in 2007.In 2019, Davie Senior Services was awarded the Ann Johnson NC Senior Center of the Year Award.In 2021, Senior Services was re-certified as NC Senior of Excellence and proudly opened the Senior Services Health & Fitness Center at the Brock Gym Campus. The past few years have seen nothing but growth in opportunities and programs from Davie Senior Services, especially with the addition of a senior recreation facility. In 2024, Davie Se-nior Games exploded and reached an all-time high of 230 registered participants, and received the Peaks of Greatness Award and the 2023 Record Breaker Award at the 2024 Senior Games Conference. In the fiscal year 2023-2024, Senior Services had 37,483 visits for senior cen-ter activities seeing more than 2,000 unduplicated clients – this is the high-est ever participation – and an increase from 2023 of 6,730 participants or 21.9% growth.And, Senior Services does not see growth stop-ping there.Each quarter, the staff works to provide new and innovative programs and explores new services to ex-ceed the past and plan for the future. The future of Davie County Senior Services seems to be just as exciting as the past 40 years.To join Senior Services, one must be 55 or better. Call 336-753-6230.

He and his brother David had many wonderful times together and enjoyed many sports, as well as youth activi-ties at Concord United Methodist Church. He graduated from Da-vie County High School in 1967 and furthered his education at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, graduating in 1971.Steve immediately fell in love with the beautiful campus, as well as the rich history and charming community of Chapel Hill. He often reminisced about meaningful buildings and lec-tures and playing pick-up bas-ketball in Woolen Gym. His time in “Blue Heaven” cemented his status as a dyed-in-the-wool Tar Heel fan and he instilled that connection in his daughters, who followed in his UNC footsteps for their own college years.Upon graduation, Steve returned to Mocksville to work and serve in his hometown community, first with Central Carolina Bank and later with Ingersoll-Rand for 35 years. He valued the importance of relationships between busi-ness and community, serving as a commissioner on the Mocksville Town Board for 12 years and a member of the Mocksville Jaycees.

Steve’s voice often carried the bass section, and he loved the preparation and perfor-mances in the annual Christmas Cantata.

To celebrate the occasion, the multipurpose room at the Early College was filled with students dancing to the beat of genres of Hispanic music. “I love Hispanic music and dancing to music. I also love the food, but mostly the music,” said senior Olivia Jones. In Mrs. Mallory’s room, a buffet table was set up for students to sample foods provided by parents, rang-ing from pupusas and rice to chicharrónes and Mexican candy. Next door, Mr. Davis’ room hosted games includ-ing Loteria, which is a Mex- ican game similar to bingo. Freshman Ethan Renegar stated that if he could change one thing, he would “make the event last the whole day.”Diversity is a core feature of the Early College, and it is taken into consideration when hosting events. Saligan shared her process for plan-ning the Hispanic Heritage celebration.“We try to think how we can include as many Hispan-ics and Latinos as possible We don’t all look the same or have the same culture.” Exposure to customs and traditions helps students grow and learn about others’ perspectives. “My favorite part of the event is sharing my culture with other people and seeing them enjoy it,” Saligan said.

Dailey and Smith ran personal bests as a total Please See Runners - Page B3 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Josh Stanley’s first year as Da-vie’s wrestling coach was a rocket ship ride - Davie won the state duals and the state individual tournament and went 23-1 - and the War Eagles have astronomically high hopes coming into 2024-25. When they beat undefeated Laney in the state dual final, their lineup consisted of three seniors, four juniors, four sophomores and three freshmen. They will return six state qualifiers. In other words, it’s a loaded roster. There is, however, some bad news. Andy Davis is hurt and his availability is up in the air. Will he miss half the season? Will he miss the entire season? With Davis out, or with Davis at less than 100 percent, Davie’s ceiling is a bit lower. You don’t lose a guy like that without feeling it. After going 18-8 as a freshman, Davis became a star as a sophomore, going 41-6 at 138 and winning four of six matches in the state tourna-ment. He’s one of the reasons Davie, which will try to repeat as state champion for the first time since 1994-95, is sitting atop a mountain of confidence. “I don’t know, honestly,” Stanley said when asked about Davis’ possi-ble return to the mat after the recent injury. “It’s the worst timing ever. I don’t really know a time frame. It could be anywhere from 8-12 weeks. That’s somebody I was really lean-ing on to take (Hunter) Testa’s role.“I would like to get him in shape enough to go on an individual run. A lot of it is going to be how much confidence he’s got coming back. He was so dang good right now. I mean, he was definitely going to make a run for a state championship. And I don’t know that he still can’t if he gets back in time. I mean, that boy is daily; he is still leveling up. He’s so much fun to watch, and now he’s got a little man about him.”Stanley was/is going to plug Davis in anywhere from 144 to 157. “I’m planning on him being a 150 a lot, but ultimately he’s a 144-pounder in an individual tour-nament,” he said. “If he does get this season, he will be looking at some college opportunities.” As tough as that blow is, Davie still has the pieces for an encore state title. “We’re going to have to have some young guys step up. But we are deep, so we should still be pret-ty solid,” he said. “I’ve got (Isaac) O’Toole coming up from North Davie, and he’s really going to be a good one. He’s maybe not there yet, but he’s going to be a good one. (Freshman) Jaden Dillard is a tough kid. He has come in and given some of the upperclassmen fits right away. I’m trying to keep (freshman) Carter Hoots where I can use him at 144. Carter is a little light for that, but he’s ready to wrestle now. I mean, I think he could qualify for a state tournament right now.”Nowhere is the reservoir of talent deeper than it is between 126 and 132. Last year Cayden Glass finished second in the state at 120, Tiaj Thao was fifth at 126 and Aidan Szewczyk went 4-2 in the state meet at 113. “We are log jammed at 126 and 132,” Stanley said. “We have three state-placers at two weight classes. None of those guys are going to make it back down to 120. Some-body’s going to have to go up to 138 between T, Aidan and Cayden. Nobody really wants to go up to 138, but we’re going to have to have some big talks, some leadership talks amongst the team, because somebody is going to have to bite that bullet.”Stanley constructed a robust coaching staff in his first year. It’s even stronger this year with the addition of Timmy Allen, who is back on the black-and-orange side after serving as West Forsyth’s head coach for one year. The other assistants are Isaiah Whitley, Caleb Spurlin, Jordon Nolan and Russell Hilton. On top of that, Brian Mur-phy, a standout for Davie in the late 1990s, is the new coach at Ellis. “Timmy is back in the house,” Stanley said with a smile. Star wrestler suffers injury By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie tennis failed to send any-one to the state tournament, but coach Collin Ferebee was comforted by the fact his Midwest Regional participants battled as hard as they could. Elliot Newsome and the doubles teams of Bailey Aderhold/Corbin Drum and Casey Cao/Kate Chaffin all went 1-1, each falling one win short of clinching a top-four finish and earning state berths. The regional was held at North-west Guilford on Oct. 18-19. “It went pretty well overall when you look at how the tournament ended,” Ferebee said. “They all won in the first round, which is a huge achievement to have five people off one team make the final 32 of the state.”Newsome, a senior who won the CPC singles title, won 6-0, 6-1 be-fore losing 7-5, 6-3. The first-round win made her 19-0 on the season. The streak ended in the quarterfinals. What happened? The opponent from Grimsley is just really good. “Elliot lost in a tight two-setter to a girl who finished fourth in the tour-nament,” Ferebee said. “Obviously, I wanted all five to make the state, but especially Elliot with it being her senior year. The girl she played from Grimsley is good - there is no doubt about it. And Elliot did not play badly.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Oct. 24, 2024 ‑ B3 Runners ...Continued From Page B1of 10 War Eagles established new all-time best marks in the boys’ race.•••Lexi Marion led the Davie girls with a 12th place finish and a new PR by two seconds (20:47). Freshman Rachel Starkey finished 30th with a time of 22:46. Rounding out the scoring were Kins-ley Shinsky in 38th (24:22), Clara Phelps in 40th (24:33) and Isabella Schilling in 53rd (26:05). Shinsky’s time was a new personal best by 1:01.Abby Lane was next for Davie with a time of 30:16. Maggie Smith followed with a 1:56 PR in 31:21. Hayden Smith’s 32:41 was a 1:15 PR, while Alexa Villa crossed the line in 33:01, which was her best time by 56 seconds. “We did some good things,” said coach Rob Rais-beck, “but a fifth place finish for the boys is not where we expected to finish. We knew the girls were locked into fifth so that was not a surprise. Although we had a bunch of PRs, the bottom line is that we need to be running faster at this time of year if we want to achieve our team goals. The four teams that beat us in the boys’ race all saw significant jumps in performance. Our scorers have to run faster at regionals if we want to make it to states. I project six teams will come out of our region and we are the seventh or eighth best team out of the 28 schools. We have to be more aggressive. At the mile mark, Mt. Tabor had nine guys in front of our No. 3. If that happens at regionals, we will get buried.“We did have some nice performances out of Jackson and Chris, who had big PRs. Patrick broke 21 for the first time and Tyler Deaver had a big jump. Our girls did as expected. Lexi had her third straight PR and Rachel is giving us all she has as a freshman. We just need more depth on the girl’s side.”The team will return to Ivey Redmon Saturday for the Midwest Regional in hopes of qualifying for the Nov. 3 state meet. The boys race at 9 a.m. and the girls follow at 9:40.Davie had three runners selected all-conference. Essic and Lakey received all-con-ference recognition for the second straight year, while Marion received her first. Kristen Starkey was first out of 57 runners and led the Ellis girls cross country team to its third conference cham-pionship in a row. Starkey finished in 13:05.05. With Reece Rye (fourth at 14:49.60), Charlotte Penry (sixth at 14:56.61), Berkley Brown (ninth at 15:25.09) and Emma Mallory (18th at 16:42.54) providing support, Ellis scored 37 points to Mooresville’s 39, China Grove’s 73, Selma Burke’s 86, Erwin’s 120) and South Davie’s 177. Kate Mason (10th at 15:32.43) and Xiadany Diaz (33rd at 18:34.33) were the top runners for North Davie and South Davie, respec-tively.•••On the boys side, Ellis produced another individual champion as Jaxon Gay beat a field of 62 runners with a time of 12:13.42. Ian Rareshide (fourth at 12:47.84), Luke Lyday (sixth at 12:51.57) and Jordan Ad-ams (14th at 14:07.61) helped Ellis finish second as a team. The team scores: Moores-ville 46, Ellis 58, Selma Burke 75, Erwin 95, China Grove 106, South Davie 131, North Davie 174.

Running back CJ Blevins picked up 36 yards but fum-bled the ball. Teammate Hunt-er Cruise scooped a Sunday hop and rambled the remain-ing 44 yards to the end zone. Davie was down 15-3 but recovered an onside kick at the West 47 and took ad-vantage of the positive field position. Nance dumped a pass to running back Brax-ton Bowling, who sped 29 yards to the West 13. Bowling scored three plays later to draw Davie within 15-10. “We stick together and do things the right way,” Davie coach Tim Devericks told the Clemmons Courier. “And to see these kids’ effort, that encourages me.”The rest of the game, though, looked exasperating- Misery ... ly familiar. The Titans scored 33 unanswered points to beat Davie for the fourth straight year. On a 75-yard drive, they overcame fourth-and-6 and a 7-yard sack. On a 68-yard drive, they shrugged off second-and-32 and scored on a 44-yard bomb. The next time they got the ball, Blevins rolled 63 yards to the Davie 23 to set up a TD that made the halftime margin 35-10. West added insult to injury by faking a punt in the third quarter. On fourth-and-10 from the West 38, the punter completed a 37-yard pass and the Titans drove the remain-ing 25 yards to widen the gap to 41-10. They scored their seventh and final TD with two minutes left in the third. Even though it’s been a freefall since Sept. 26, Dever-icks said his boys are giving him everything they’ve got. “We battled some injuries right before halftime and the second half,” he told the Courier. “But our kids battled, man. We battled. I’m super-proud of them tonight.”Here are the chilling stats: West scored on seven of 10 possessions not counting the end of halves. Davie came up empty on its last eight pos-sessions and committed three turnovers. West outgained Davie 643-265 as Blevins (15 carries, 177 yards) and Riley Horton (12-107 rushing) av-eraged 11.8 and 8.9 yards per carry, respectively. Horton misfired on 17 pass attempts but made up for it by averag-ing 14 yards a completion and tossing three TDs. Two teams in dire need of a win will meet Friday night in Winston-Salem at 7. Park-land (3-5, 1-4) is also stuck in a four-game losing streak, getting outscored 113-6 the past two weeks by East For-syth and Reagan. Last year the War Eagles outscored Parkland 40-33, and they’re seeking their sev-enth straight win in the series. Davie’s JV football team was punished 41-14 by visit-ing West Forsyth on Oct. 17. While the Titans improved to 6-2, Davie fell to 4-4 and 1-4 in the CPC. The War Eagles were outscored 87-14 by Ta-bor and West in back-to-back weeeks.

He had five points, four rebounds and a blocked shot in eight minutes of action as the Hornets lost in overtime. “My gosh. It’s like a breath of fresh air,” Lee said. “We talk all the time about just competitors and being con-sistent competitors and as you saw, he brings another level of competition and winning plays to our team.

There are actually two former War Eagles on the Warriors’ roster, the other being Mikaylah Hutton, a freshman outside hitter from Advance. Here are some fun ques-tions and answers from Wil-son. What are your goals for the upcoming season? To get a good relationship with my teammates and to work hard and achieve my goals.Why did you choose SWU?

Ribeye steak.Here are Hutton’s respons-es: What are your goals for the upcoming season? My goals are to work hard to be better and not get down when things get tough.Why did you choose SWU? I chose SWU because of the community it has and because the coach and team felt like home.What is your favorite thing about SWU? My fa-vorite thing about SWU is the community and how it is centered around God.Why is your sport im-portant to you? My sport is important to me because it is my true passion.

There will be crafts and baked goods for sale. The Bazaar will last from 6:30 a.m.-noon. Outside vendors are welcome to setup for $20. Call Kathy Ellis at 336-830-5123.The members of Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church appreciate the support they have received for the breakfast the last 20 or so years. There are a number of people who are not members of Wesley Chapel but have been faithful and have missed few of the breakfasts all these years. Among these are members of the Harpe family—that is Kenneth, Marga-ret Jo, Jean, and Patricia and members of their families, Arthur and Judy Spillman, Troy Spillman, William Laurie and Jane Brock, Don Hanes, Denny Barney. Olena Groce Anderson, Mickey Groce and the list goes on. That strong supporter list also includes a number of people who showed up every month but are no longer living. Some of those people included Chip Ba-ity and his wife, Estelle, Bud Baity, who actually left the nursing home to come to breakfast. The same was true of Bill Fer-ebee. Then there was John Henry Caudle, Richard Brock, Taylor Slye, Lester Martin, and many more. When you list names, you always leave someone out. I am sorry if I missed some of the regulars, and I want them to know that they were also appre-ciated.Tom and Toni Horton have returned to their Florida Home. The only damage seemed to be to the carport and to a car. We miss them in Pino while they are in Florida and look forward to their return.Drive down Cana Road from US 601 to NC 801 (or vice versa) and see the decorat-ed hay bales.
