All but three are believed to have caught the virus through community spread, accord­ ing to Suzanne Wright, Davie Health & Human Services di­ rector. Two of those patients are in the hospital. One has re­ covered from the virus. "These numbers do not re­ flect the extend of COVID-19 in Davie County,” she said. Of the 11 cases in Davie, seven are among people age 65 or older; three age 50-64; and one age 25-49. "Two of the individuals with COVID-19 in Davie County have exhibited no symptoms,” Wright said. "This emphasizes the need for all to stay home and follow control measures as you will likely interact with people carrying the virus with­ out you or them even knowing it.” She said there are likely more in Davie County with the virus than have been confirmed via lab tests. All of those with confirmed COVID-19 are in isolation in their homes (other than the hospitalizations), and are in contact with health department officials as to when they can leave isolation. "To protect this community. stay home, socially distance, wash hands, don't touch your face, and act like everyone ha.s COVID-19 as not everyone shows symptoms."

Schools entering new territory with remote learning By Beth Cassidy Enterprise Record The Davie Board of Educa­ tion unanimously approved a resolution granting emergency powers to Superintendent Jeff Wallace at a meeting March 25. The board members did not gather for the meeting but in­ stead communicated via video and telephone. The resolution will allow Wallace to make decisions on such items as curriculum and calendar adjustments, access to school property, employee work schedules and assign­ ments, and entering into con­ tracts, all with the purpose of ensuring the continuation of education while keeping stu- dent.s and employees healthy during the coronavirus pan­ demic. Chair Clint Junker said of the Covid-19 pandemic: "Man, the times we are under, no one saw coming. To see Jeff’s lead­ ership and that of others has “We encourage students and families to de­ velop a routine, helping to structure the remote learning process.

This has been a time we have been able to see how a great team is supposed to work.” The board also voted unan­ imously in support of a county state of emergency proclama­ tion that took effect March 16.

Under a March 13 order by Supreme Court Chief Justice Cheri Beasley, emergency di­ rectives are in place to help keep court personnel and de­ fendants healthy, as courts re­ main open hut most cases are being continued for at least 30 days. District Court Judge Mary Covington said there is a judge at the courthouse every day to hear cases and preside over probable cause hearings and other court matters. .VIost of that is being done either hy vid­ eo or with a minimal amount of personnel present. Most cases are being contin­ ued unless they involve emer­ gency non-secured custody or­ ders, juvenile secured custody hearings, first appearances for defendants in custody, and 5OB orders, to preserve the right to due process. "My biggest concern is par­ ents getting 50-Bs against them (domestic violence protective order) and being kept from their children,” Covington said. "We are taking each case as it comes up specific to those individuals.” Please See Courts - Page 4 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 2, 2020 - 3- DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 2, 2020 Editorial Page Come and listen to a story about the virus COVID ...

That’s what they call him now. Bad virus. Go away and don’t come back, ya hear? Just trying to add a few smiles into a situation that deserves no smiles. The virus is here. It’s real. People are getting sick. People are dying. And we’re the only ones who can stop it. Don’t worry about which neighbor or friend or co-worker may have the virus. It’s here. They didn’t want to get it. Most have no idea where they got it. Pretend that you suspect everyone you meet has the virus. Chances are they don’t, but there’s also a chance they are carrying the virus and have no idea. It could be your eye the virus is targeting. Better safe than sorry. It’s best to do what Davie Health Director Suzanne Wright has been touting all along. Stay home if at all possible (I saw a sign on 1-40 over the weekend that said “Stay Home.” Shouldn’t it have said “Go Home, And Stay.”? Wash your hands. Often. Use hand sani­ tizer. Often. Stay six feet away from everyone other than those in your immediate household. Always. And if you feel sick, quarantine yourself in your own horn?. If you think you’ve got COVID-19, don’t rush to the hospital, get out and march into the emer­ gency room. Call first. Learn where to go. Learn what to do. If in a house with multiple people, have one caregiver for the sick person. It’s basically common sense, folks. Don’t wait for our government to tell us what to do. It seems that even the states like North Carolina that are taking drastic measures to stop the spread of the virus are at least two weeks behind in doing so. We know how the virus is transmitted, so why can’t we stop it? We’re a dollar short and a day late, as the saying goes. We’re so focused on making a living that it takes priority over everything else, and rightly so. With­ out a job, where would we live? Without a job, how would we pay for food? Without a job, how would we buy clothes for our children? The list goes on. And most of us are so worried because it wouldn’t take a lack of too many paychecks before each of us is in a bad economic situation. That’s understandable. It’s also understandable that we’ve had it so good for so long, that we feel immune to things such as a pandemic virus. We’re not. It can rob us of our health or life. It can ruin our economy. But only if we let it. Stay home. Take precautions when going out. - Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY USPS 149-160 171 S. Main St., P.O.

Barnette I know that at this particular time we are in the midst of a corona-virus pandemic. People are worried and fearful. Will we live or die? Will we be able to get food at the grocery store or meds at the pharmacy? But in a brief his­ tory lesson here, I will remind you that we have all faced many crises before, both personal and national, and have survived. The first difficult situation that I personally had to deal with was a health problem. As a youngster I had an intesti­ nal condition that required strict supervision by my parents and then a major surgery in 1946. As an only child, I had always felt safe and secure with my parents. However, the operation that might be considered minor these days kept me at Rowan Memorial Hospital for a week followed by a month of bed rest at home. Because my parents stayed with me a lot, I did not feel fearful in the hospital, but I do have vivid memories of the food. Since I was used to eating fresh vegetables from Daddy’s garden, I was not impressed with the red Jello, cottage cheese, and runny eggs. To this day I despise cottage cheese! The most major public crisis in my childhood was the polio epidemic of 1948 with its subsequent quarantine. Everyone had to stay inside, or at least not go to any public building, including church. Papers with this information were posted on various buildings, and I remember seeing them. Although we could not go anywhere, we did ride uptown and park under the big oaks and watch whatever was going on. I longed to be able to get an ice cream cone but knew that was not possible. One of the boys who was a year ahead of me in school actually got polio and wore braces for the rest of his life. In those days a quarantine was not as difficult as it would be now because my fam­ ily was self-sufficient because of our large garden, and we could still go outside and play in the yard alone. We were not used to television or electronic devices at that time, so most children knew how to entertain themselves. Later, when I went to college, the Cuban Missile Cri­ sis happened during my freshman year. At Catawba we practiced sheltering in the basement in the event of a bomb being dropped. For weeks there was eerie silence in the cafeteria, which usually was very noisy. In Spanish class someone in my group asked Dr. Andrews if we still had to do our homework. She said,”We will proceed as usual.” That comment has come to my mind many times when fac­ ing a difficult situation. During my first year of graduate school at the Univer­ sity of Tennessee, John F. Kennedy was assassinated. I had a small television set in my room and remember viv­ idly that I was combing my hair and getting ready to go to class when Walter Cronkite reported with tears in his eyes that the president was dead. During the following days, I watched and rewatched his funeral and was inspired by the behavior of his wife Jackie in such a difficult time. Another difficult event happened while we were living in Fayetteville in 1974. My school. Pine Forest Senior High, was about 12 miles from our home, so I needed a lot of gasoline just to go to and from work. That was the same time of a national gasoline shortage. Every Saturday we took one of our cars and waited in a long line until it was our turn for a fillup, praying that the gas station would not run out of its allotment before we got to the pump. It was a time of fear and of major disruptions in our lifestyle. Because we needed the gasoline to go to work, we did not get to visit my parents or other relatives for several months. Now we are in the midst of a pandemic of the novel co­ rona virus, something new and frightening. Although not in quarantine, we older folks are staying at home most of the time.; schools are closed; people are working from home; social distancing is the new norm; there are no church services or meetings except online. We are isolated from friends and family except for emails, calls and so forth. The news is on all the time with various people talking about the virus and what we all should be doing. During the flu pandemic of 1918, for example, people were not bombard­ ed with news and got what they did from newspapers days or weeks after it happened. People did the best they could during that time with country folk faring better than others. And that also passed, and from it penicillin and other vac­ cines and drugs were discovered to fight the flu. So my hope is that we get through this present situation all in one piece and are able to use what we learn to forge a better world, to appreciate all of our gifts, to gain a new love for people and nature and all things that mean so much to all of us. God bless us all!! “The Day I Felt Old” By Kevin F. Wishon Years ago, every Memorial Day weekend, I would drive to Charlotte and listen to the various bands and music art­ ists performing throughout the downtown area. The admi.s- sion was free. That is free, if you excluded fuel costs, walk­ ing, and whatever the weather decided to do. Otherwise, it was an enjoyable way to see and hear many musical perfor­ mances. If I showed up early, and usually I did, I could get near or right in front of the stage. Of course, this promised an unobstructed view of everything occurring on stage, but it also came with one more thing. It was the displeasure of being shoved forward, pressed on, and crushed against the stage front barrier. As the standing crowd gathered and the music began, it never failed that someone eventually would be pushed into me. Turning, I could never see who the perpetrators of this pushing were. Instead, the people behind me were also victim.s of several people pressing the crowd forward from a distance. This situation was annoying, but I was a big fellow at that time and could handle it. However, I could not say the same for everyone there. I saw plenty of peo­ ple smaller and younger than me crushed until they were sick or nearly injured. I never liked this, but at that time, I looked at it as adolescent misbehavior and something to be expected at these events. After several years of attending the Memorial Day weekend festival, I arrived one Saturday evening late and found myself with a small group in the rear of the crowd. As other people tried to press their way deeper into the standing crowd, looking for a better view, I resisted the urge. It was hot enough that evening without dozens of bodies surrounding me. So, I stood at a distance that eve­ ning listening to the performance and talking with other festival attendees. There was no point in trying to see any­ thing from that distance. Then, between the group I was standing with and the crowd facing the stage, several teen­ agers appeared, acting mischievously. One called out to us in the rear. “Come on. Help us push!” Abruptly, a voice said, “No!” Confused, the four boys looked at us briefly, and then turning, they disappeared into the crowd. I was impressed that someone had made their feelings clear and only realized who it was when several in the group I was standing with slapped me on the shoulder and proclaimed, “You told them!” I’m not sure what I said af­ terward, but it wasn’t much. This action was something a parent or schoolteacher would’ve done, but not me. Some­ thing had changed inside me that day. Previously, I had let the guilt of my past misbehaviors excuse me from speak­ ing out. Yet, having been on the receiving end of the crush before, and watching others suffer too, I wasn’t about to let the matter go unaddressed. Then, just like that, I suddenly felt old.RWG Literary Comer * For more information on Renegade Writers Guild, visit www.renegadewritersguild.wordpress.com. • Submit a favorite memory of life in Davie County.

Continued From Page 1 On a recommendation by the N.C. Dept. of Public Instruction, if a senior was passing a class as of March 13, they are considered to have passed that class. If they were failing a class, they will get a withdrawal for the class, which means they won’t get credit for it. Before that happens, they will be given an opportunity to pass the class through on­ line learning. If they were taking a year-long class, their fall semester grade will count toward their GPA, but their grade prior to March 13 will not. Seniors will not receive the traditional A-F grades, only a pass or withdrawal on their transcript. As soon as it became clear the state would not get out of the bullseye of the virus and schools would be shuttered for at least two weeks, local leadership teams began meeting with the focus on child nutrition, child care and remote learn­ ing. The emergency sum­ mer feeding plan went into place, providing meals to students who rely on school meals for their nutritional needs. In one day, the school nutrition team provided more than 3,000 meals and as of press-time, they had provided more than 30,000 meals, including those de­ livered to the homeless and quarantined. “That is absolutely phe­ nomenal,” Wallace said, noting many had reached out to him to offer help. He said the team is beginning to plan how to provide meals long term, since schools will now be closed until at least May 15. The school system is providing childcare to staff, emergency personnel and paying clients. There are 30 children be­ ing cared for at Mocksville Elementary and Central Da­ vie, with the children physi­ cally adhering to the social distancing six-foot spac­ ing during their activities. Staff are ensuring hygiene standards of frequent hand­ washing, coughing into their elbows, and not touch­ ing their faces are being car­ ried out. As families exhaust temporary childcare options and the need grows, more facilities will be used to fol­ low the executive orders for gatherings, Wallace said. More than 1,000 laptop computers were distrib­ uted to students last week­ end, and as of the date of the meeting, 235 of 6,100 students had not been con­ tacted to receive the devices they need for remote learn­ ing. Staff have been in con­ tact with internet providers, which are offering 60-day service with no fees. Students are able to col­ laborate on school projects, communicate with their teachers and one another, and continue to learn, no matter where they are. Their learning content, activities, and assignment.s will be shared on an online plat­ form, which may include video conferencing. There is now a remote learning resources page on the schools' website, and students and parents are en­ couraged to check teacher websites. Students have been asked to check their email for messages from their teachers; all student.s from kindergarten through 12th grade have access to their email accounts. “We encourage students and families to develop a routine, helping to structure the remote learning pro­ cess,” said Jennifer Lynde, chief academic officer. “Everyone, even teachers, will be adjusting to some­ thing new. We will remain flexible and understanding as everyone adapts to this unique situation. We will provide patience with stu­ dents and appreciate the patience of parents. We will certainly miss face-to-face interaction with children, but we are optimistic about the possibilities.” Wallace said he wa.s proud of the staff for their dedication to student.s and the community, as they make decisions for the stu­ dents’ “well-being, con­ tinued development, and engagement. Plus, joining efforts with local officials, churches, foundation.s and businesses has been a bless­ ing. We are so thankful.” Wallace and the board spent the rest of the meeting talking about items includ­ ing work for non-classified staff, AP classes, grades, student rank and honors, and standardized testing. With the goal of keep­ ing everyone meaningfully employed and earning a salary, non-classified staff members, including bus drivers and teacher assis­ tants, are moving into other roles, such as helping with food distribution, prepar­ ing packets of school work, cleaning, painting and even­ tually, and reading to stu­ dents virtually. Advanced Placement (AP) exams will still be held, will be 45-minutes long and will only cover material that should have been covered in class up to the day school was canceled. Wallace said he anticipates all state-test­ ing will be waived. As of late Monday, he had not re­ ceived updates on testing, or class rank and honors from the state board. 211 a Dial 2-1-1 .

Continued From Page 1 The biggest change in the court system is that no orders for arrest are being issued for a defendant who does not show up for their court date. Once the courts are back working full time, she said, those folks would be arrested. Under Beas­ ley’s order, anyone who may have been exposed to the virus is not allowed to enter the courthouse. Ellen Drechsler, Davie clerk of court, said those wanting to conduct business in the courthouse should call before they enter the building, as some informa­ tion can be provided over the phone. Phone numbers for the clerk’s office and probation officers are post­ ed on the door, and other information is provided at www.nccourts .org. Defendants should have received information from their attorney or in the mail advising them of new court dates, and traffic tickets may be paid online. New filings, estate accountings, and inventories can be filed by mail. Individual estate appointments are not being scheduled at this time, she said. Fingerprinting and gun permits are being conducted behind the courthouse in the old detention center and people do not need to enter the courthouse to access that location. If a case must be heard in the courtroom, no one is allowed in except the de­ fendant and court person­ nel, and the recommended six-feet distancing rule is in effect. “Everything is moving at a very slow pace at this point but if we can do a bond hearing or hear a plea and get an inmate moved on to DOC (NC Department of Correction) or wherev­ er, we have to do that. The court system is one big, fat Petri dish anyway, and I suspect there could be an order coming that will halt all court proceedings, but that wouldn’t be fair to the inmates or people with do­ mestic violence cases. It would also be an utter viola­ tion of the Constitution. But this is all new to us and we are all moving and growing each day,” said Covington. Sheriff J.D. Hartman said magistrates are look­ ing at cases a.s they arise to determine if the person is eligible for pre-trial release, so they would not have to be in jail awaiting a court date. Under Beasley’s order, weddings, which may be of­ ficiated by a magistrate, are supposed to proceed as nor­ mal, but that is not the case here, as magistrates are not doing weddings, accord­ ing to Drechsler. She said magistrates are not keeping normal office hours but are instead on call. Those were decisions made by Judge Wayne Michael, the chief district court judge for this district. For those inmates whose cases have not yet been heard, just because they are being forced to shel­ ter in place does not mean they are immune to possi­ bly contracting the corona­ virus. Hartman said there are about 45 inmates being housed at the detention cen- . ter, the lowest number in the past four or five years. For the health of all there, anyone who goes into the building must have their temperature taken first, and medical staff is available to anyone who feels sick. If any inmate does feel ill, there is a section in the cen­ ter that has been cleared to isolate them. Hartman said no one is allowed inside ex­ cept staff and attorneys. Hartman said “normal” crimes are staying about the same but domestic violence crime.s have increased.

As owner of Perkins Roofing in Mocksville, Jesse treats each roof as if it was on his own home. If it isn’t good enough for him, it will not be good enough for you. That is the way Jesse treats each roofing job and customer. His work and integrity speak for itself. Jesse, a Reidsville native, became interested in roofing when he was just 13 years old. At age 17, the summer before graduating from high school, he began helping his brother in the roofing business. Af­ ter graduating the next year, Jesse moved to Davie County and has been here since. After years of working for other roofers, Jesse de­ cided it was time to go out on his own. So, in the tall of 1997, he started Perkins Rooting. “I have been roofing most of my life and that’s what I love to do,” Jesse explains. “I started out with a lad­ der, hatchet and pick-up truck.” Now, along with rooting, Jesse has added vinyl sid­ ing to his line of work. “I work with several local contractors on new homes and do tear offs tor older homes that need a new root. I have done some repair work but we just don’t have that many bad storms around here to do too much damage for roof repairs,” Jesse notes. Jesse takes a great deal of pride in his work and will work however many hours and days it takes to get the job finished and done right. “I keep my business somewhat small. That way I can be on the job to see what goes on and make sure the job is completed like it would be for someone in my family.” Perkins Roofing also enjoys giving back to the com­ munity. They are involved in various fund raisers including the law enforcement and rescue squad. If you are in need of a new roof and a good, honest, dependable man for the job, give Jesse at Perkins Roofing a call for a free estimate at (336) 753-8355. HERE!

Roy Coopier’s executive order clos­ ing all North Carolina public schools through May 15, N.C. High School Athletic Associa­ tion (NCHSAA) Commissioner Que Tucker released the follow­ ing statement: "Having heard the ufxiated information relative to schools remaining closed until the mid­ dle of May, NCHSAA inter­ scholastic athletics will remain suspended until at least May 18. “The NCHSAA board of directors and staff will use the next few weeks to weigh our fu­ ture decisions based on the new directions given by Gov. Coo­ per, other government leaders, and organizations charged with public health and safety during thi.s unprecedented time. Such decisions will include the possi­ ble resumption of spring sports’ competition and the possibility of holding the state basketball championships. “While we remain hopeful that we will be able to resume competition, particularly for our senior student-athletes, we also recognize the need to protect the health and safety of our students, coaches and the communities we serve.” Baseball legend Joe Ferebee dies By Mike London mike.london@salisburypost.com MISENHEIMER— Joe Fer­ ebee, a Mocksville native who became one of the giant.s of Rowan County and Stanly County athlet­ ics, passed away on March 18. He’s a “Mount Rushmore” sport.s icon for both counties, a charter member of the Salis­ bury-Rowan County Hall of Fame, an all-time legend who positively impacted thousands of sailors and ball players. Decade after decade, he molded impressionable boys into outstanding men. His was a life graced with longevity, integrity and accom­ plishment. “Coach” celebrated his 101st birthday on Feb. 24. He coached American Legion baseball state championship teams at Newman Park in the 1950s, the 196Os, the 197Os and 1980s - a mind-boggling feat. He coached 694 American Legion wins, 667 collegiate wins at Pfeiffer and added 77 more wins at Salisbury’s Boyden High, where his team won the 1955 3A state championship. That’s a total of 1,438 wins. While his Legion victory total was surpassed in 2015, he is still recognized as the winningest baseball coach in North Carolina history. His teams won 67 percent of the time. “I had the distinct honor of playing for Coach Ferebee for three years of Legion ball,” said Carson head coach Chris Cauble, the catcher on Ferebee’s 1984 Rowan County American Legion state champs. "There was just so much knowledge to be gained by listening to him. When he was talking baseball, he always found a way to tie baseball in with life.” Ferebee was a senior at Ca­ tawba College during the 1941 -42 school year, a strong-armed right fielder who also suited up for the football and basketball teams. His life changed, as did the live.s of most members of his generation, when Pearl Harbor wa.s attacked on Dec. 7. 1941, and plunged the United States into World II. Within a month of Pearl Harbtir, Ferebee had enlisted for military service. He wa.s an ’A' student, so he was allowed to take hi.s exams and graduate early. He asked to pitch a game for Catawba baseball in April, 1942, before he left to join the war effort. He threw a shutout against Western Carolina. Not long after that, Ferebee wa.s in a bunk in the Norfolk Naval Training Station. He became part of former heavyweight champ Gene Tunney’s specialist training course made up of elite athletes, many of them pros. The idea was that athletes and coaches were natural leaders and would make excellent officers. Tunney inter­ viewed Ferebee ptersonally. Ferebee spent three months in Norfolk, working out with famed athletes such as former Duke sen­ sation Ace Parker and Cleveland Indian.s fireballer Bob Feller. Ferebee’s next stop was San Diego. He made the cross-coun­ try trip from Virginia in a Chevy coupe. He always swore it wa.s 1 1 8 degrees when he rode through Tex­ as. He also said he caught a Texas jackrabbit and held onto it for 1 50 miles before turning it kxise at the town square in Tuscon. .Arizona. The jackrabbit adventure would be Ferebee’s last fling with fun before the war was won. From San Diego, he headed to the Farragut Naval Training Station near Ciieur d" .Alene, Idaho, and that was seri­ ous business. In Idaho, he drilled and trained and taught sailors. Hi.s classes consisted of 160 men. He had no assistant. Those classe.s lasted eight to 12 weeks, depending on how despertite the Navy’.s need was for replacements. When those sailors graduated from Ferebee‘.s class, they were ready for whatever came their way. They were experts in tire control, seamanship and lifeboat skills. There were long days when Ferebee graduated one class at 5 a.m. and welcomed 160 new recruits 13 hours later. Ferebee always wa,s prouder of what he accomplished with those Naval classes than with anything he did on a baseball field. But it wa.s on ball fields, that he became legendary. He wa.s a master of teaching fundamentals. Ferebee began his coaching career at Salisbury's Boyden High in 1947. The first Legion team he coached was Spencer in 1949. He started coaching Salisbury — this was long before the protiram was 6 consolidated into Rowan County — in 1950. .A tiny, but rocket-armed lefty, Tom Eaton, became a superstar for Ferebee. He was the workhorse for Boyden’s 1955 NCHS.A.A champions and for Ferebee’s 1955 Salisbury Legion squad that captured the imagination of fans with a string of title.s and a trip to the World Series in .Minnesota. Much of the amazing fan base that Rowan County Legion still enjoys today can trace its root.s to the mighty run by Ferebee’s 1955 squad. Eaton set record.s for win.s and strikeouts that still stand. "Coach Ferebee alway.s was a great teacher,” Eaton said. "Every team works on hitting, pitching and fielding, but we worked on important thing.s that other teams didn’t spend a.s much time on — cutoff plays, backing up throws, throwing to the right base. Little thing.s like that could make a big difference, could turn a key game around. He even taught us how to properly wear our uniforms, our hats and our socks.” Ferebee stayed at it a very long time. He loved the game. "I don’t think I ever saw anyone who wa.s as crazy about anything as Coach Ferebee wa.s about ba.se- ball.” Eaton said, “He’d be out there mowing the grass and lining off the field in the morning before a night game, and loving every minute he was on the field.” While he cherished baseball Ferebee brought some of that mili­ tary discipline to it. He was tough. Please See Ferebee - Page B2 Ml DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 2, 2020 - B3B2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 2,2020 Twins ... Continued From Page BI reporters. “They’re core culture guys for us.” Cody was picked in the second round of the 2019 NBA Draft and signed a multi-year deal with the Hornets. Even though Ca­ leb was more heralded than his brother after averaging 18.9 and 19.2 points during his junior/senior seasons at Nevada, he went undrafted, signing with Charlotte as a free agent. Cody only spent five games with the Greensboro Swarm, and he dominated in that brief time, shooting nearly 59 percent from the floor and averaging 18.4 points, 8.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 2 steals. He saw 48 games with the Hornets, averaging 5 points, 3.3 re­ bounds, 2 assists and 19 minutes. Cody’s springboard game came in a 112-100 home loss to Orlando on Feb. 3, when he scored 13 points on 6-for-6 shooting. He added eight rebounds and three assists. The next night in a 125-110 loss at Houston, he had 12 points and five rebounds, shooting 5 of 9 overall and 2 of 4 on 3-pointers. As good as those outings were, Cody’s value won’t be fully appreciated unless you’re watching the coach­ es’ film. He’s a consum­ mate team player. He has a seemingly endless amount of energy. He takes pride in doing the dirty work. “I think it’s just paying attention to detail,” Cody said. “The biggest thing for me is just bring effort and energy. I really believe that when you play hard, good things happen.” Meanwhile, Caleb was superb for Greensboro while starting all 28 of his games in the G-League. Through will and work, his shooting improved markedly from his senior year at Nevada. He shot .363 percent from 3 and .535 on two-pointers. He averaged 21.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.6 steals. After making just five NBA appearances from late November through early February, Caleb was re­ called to Charlotte on Feb. 8 as the Hornets made a series of roster moves. He never left. Just like their days at the Brock Gym, South Davie Middle, Davie High, Oak Hill Academy, N.C. State and Nevada, the twins were teammates again, at the sport’s highest level, no less. And in a 104-103 home loss to San Antonio on March 3 - this is so ridiculous - both scored in double figures. Cody got one of his three start.s and responded with 13 points, five rebounds and four assists in 34 minutes, nailing 6 of 8 field goals. Caleb came off the bench for 12 points and three rebounds in 26 minutes, converting 5 of 9 field goals and 2 of 4 3s. In a 108-99 home win over Houston on March 7, Cody had nine assists and played admirable defense on James Harden, one of the top players in the world. Harden had 30 points but needed 22 shots to do it. He missed nine of 11 3-point attempts and committed 10 turnovers. Cody and Miles Bridges shared the defensive assignment on Harden, but Cody was the primary de­ fender in the fourth quarter. In a 143-138 dou­ ble-overtime loss at Atlanta on March 9, Caleb had 23 points and four assists while hitting 8 of lO shots and 5 of 6 3s. Cody had 11 points. five assists and four boards. In a 109-98 win at Miami on March 11, Caleb had 19 points, seven rebounds and three assists, hitting 3 of 6 3s and 8-8 free throws. Cody had six points, eight rebounds and two assists. They both played 32-plus minutes for the second game in a row. “I know everything he is going to do, (and) vice versa,” Cody said. “It’s a lot of fun and we are blessed to be able to do this (together). I think that we complement whoever we play with really well because we just try to bring a lot of energy, just basically doing whatever is needed for us to win.” “The notion of me com­ ing out of college was that I just shot and played of­ fense,” Caleb said. “I just wanted to show guys I can do more than just shoot. I try and guard and just be like my brother and do all the other things, too. Defense is the biggest thing for me to stay on the court right now.” Right when the twins were becoming major con­ tributors on a nightly basis, the season stopped. The Hornets were 19-38 before going 4-4 between Feb. 26-March 11. COVID-19 could end up canceling their final 17 games. But what an incredible surge down the stretch for the twins. In the last sev­ en games, Cody averaged 7.1 points, 5 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 1.3 steals and hit 51.4 on field goals. In his last five games, Caleb averaged 13.6 points, shot 55.3 percent overall and drained 13 of his final 20 3s, a scorching 65 percent. “I think they’re keepers and they’re going to just keep getting better,” Bor­ rego said.

His players wore their uniforms with military pre­ cision. Players always stood at attention until the last note of pre-game national anthems. “I don’t know how many of today’s players could play for him,” Cauble said. “I remember a Legion tryout day. He told a few stories. Then he asked who had a summer vacation planned. Three or four guys put their hand.s up. Coach told them they were cut. Just like that.” Ferebee coached the Al­ bemarle Legion squad in 1957. There was a mem­ orable playoff win against Kannapolis. In 1967, the took the helm of a Rowan County Legion program that had fallen on tough times. He would produce state cham­ pions in 1969, 1971 and 1984. His 1968, 1970.,1979 and 1980 teams were state runners-up. His record with Salisbury and Rowan Le­ gion teams was 673-325. Cauble, who has become the all-time leader for high school baseball wins in Rowan with 384, credits Ferebee with providing the foundation for his success. Home insurance from someone you con trust.

Drew Ridenhour 336-751-0669 852 US Highway 64 W., # 1 01 Mocksville, NC “I remember as a young player, I knew I was going to be the backup catcher (behind Tony Myers) for the Legion team, and I asked Coach Ferebee about going and playing Pony League where I’d be playing all the time. He told me to stick around with the Legion team, that if I paid attention I’d learn not only from him but from Tony Myers because the older players would teach the young play­ ers. I stayed. Coach was right. I learned a lot.” After Cauble became a starter, he asked a lot of questions. He’d been a No. 3 hitter in high school at East Rowan, but Ferebee had him leading off. “He told me that over the course of the season it was going to mean a lot more at-bats for me, and he wanted his better hitters to get as many at-bats as pos­ sible,” Cauble said. “That’s a philosophy I still use at Carson.” Ferebee, who also served as Pfeiffer’s AD for many years, wa.s a walking history book well into his 90s. His memory stayed razor-sharp. He could tell you not just the score of games from the 1940s, but who wa.s on base and who was on the mound and what the count was when the decisive pitch was thrown. He could provide virtual play-by-play of Rose Bowl games from long, long ago. His all-time favorite athlete was Don Hutson, the great receiver from Alabama and the Green Bay Packers, who was dominant in the pros from the mid-1930s to the mid-194Os. Just about everyone Fer­ ebee ever coached agreed on one thing - that he was the best and most knowl­ edgeable coach they’d ever been around. As reporter Chris Hobbs said via social media, “If you followed baseball at any level in North Carolina, and had a chance to see Coach Joe’s teams play, value the memory. He helped put going to a college baseball game on many people’s lifetime bucket list.” While Ferebee’s success with Rowan American Le­ gion was monumental, his college success at Pfeiffer matched it. He coached Pfeiffer teams from 1956- /lllstate Allstate home products not ovoiloble in FL, and moy also not be available in jo certain areos of other states.

In 1968, Pfeiffer’s baseball team was ranked second in the nation. Ferebee’s Pfeiffer teams produced 42 players who secured professional contracts, including MLB hurlers Monty Montgomery and Bill Wynne. Ferebee tributes poured in all day on Thursday. “He was my friend, my coach and teacher and most of all, my hero,” said for­ mer Pfeiffer player Bob Gulledge, who was the lead organizer of Ferebee’s re­ cent birthday gatherings, including his 100th last year. “I didn’t realize all those ground balls he hit to me were teaching me about life, but the older I got, the smarter he got. We loved him and will miss him. He was a great man.” Duke head baseball coach Chris Pollard, who was mentored by Ferebee at Pfeiffer, called Ferebee “a larger-than-life figure in our sport.” “You think about his ser­ vice to our country and you think about the 1,4OO-plus wins, the multiple halls of fame,” Pollard said. “When I got to Pfeiffer, I was a first­ time head coach, 24 years old. He was a legend. In the time since, that legend has only grown.” Duke assistant Dusty Blake, who also coached at Pfeiffer, stated that Ferebee “set the bar for all collegiate coaches when it comes to making a positive and life­ long impact on student-ath­ letes.” Pfeiffer softball coach Monte Sherrill praised Fer­ ebee as “an American hero.” Pfeiffer baseball games are played at Joe Ferebee Field - “The Joe.” His No. 23 jersey is retired. Ferebee has been in­ ducted into numerous halls of fame — North Caroli­ na, N.C. American Legion baseball, Catawba, Pfeiffer, NAIA, American Coaches Association, Stanly and Salisbury-Rowan. In 1969 and 1971, Fere­ bee received the Governor’s Award for his contributions to youth baseball. The coach was married to Melba Willis Ferebee from 1952 until her death in 2004. He is survived by four children, all Pfeiffer alumni - Joe Jr., Mark, Rick and Jomelle Ferebee Key. A small private family service is planned, with a larger memorial service to be announced at a later date. DAVIE NURSING & REHABILITATION CENTER 498 Madison Rd.)

The sights and sounds of the yard or garden are ampli­ fied with less traffic - on the ground and in the sky - since we’ve been ordered to stay home due to COVID-19. The good news; many lawn and garden centers and home improvement stores will remain open. There’s no excuse not to have a garden this year. Grow your own vegetables. Grow your own flowers. Remember the Victory Gardens from World War II? Let’s grow some COVID-19 gardens. It’s more rewarding than you might think. Just being outside in the spring with all the sights and sounds and smells makes it worthwhile. Whether it’s a large garden plot or a couple of containers on a patio, do it. You’ve got time now. Build a raised bed, which is great for those of us at an advanced age who can’t bend over like they once could. Don’t worry if things don’t end up perfect. Even the best gardeners lose a plant every now and then. I’ve always been a gardener. Even as a child. There were a few years of apartment life and I missed being outside in the garden, but other than that, I love getting soil (not dirt) between my toes. I once had the best garden spot in Davie County. I re­ ally believe that. The previous property owners had used it as a garden, and it was right next to a chicken house, so A butterfly enjoys the blooms on a blueberry bush at the Calahaln Bootanical Garden. there was plenty of natural fertilizer and sunlight. The soil was brown and fine. No red clay to be found. It grew vegetables like no other spot. But then I got married, and that best garden spot in the county was sold to someone else - someone who didn’t appreciate the soil they had just purchased, I might add. Although I lost that garden spot, me and my wife have spent the last however many years it has been developing the Calahaln Bootanical Garden. Notice I didn’t use the word botanical. That would mean we would have to name every plant we grow. My wife could come close, but not me. I could tell you how and when it blooms, how high it gets, how much it spreads, but name it? No way. Why bootanical? It can become scary. Just the other day, I was out pulling weeds and right behind the azalea, there it was. Some sort of aluminum can with the words “Bud Light’’ on the side. How did that get there? Has someone else been in my space? Then there was another one. Then another one. It went on and on, from one end of the garden to the other, there were these cans. All empty. How could this happen? And though we technically don’t live in Calahaln, we’re close enough. We like the name. Normally at this time of year, other than pulling up some of those pesky winter weeds, I spend my time di­ viding the plants that need dividing or are out of control. I’d put them into pots, then donate them to the Mocksville Garden Club to sell at the Daniel Boone Family Festival. The festival has been postponed to beyond the optimal time to plant these perennials. (My wife pointed this out to me as I was preparing to pot yet another plant). So what should I do? I’ve got an idea. How about some trading? I’ll trade anyone a perennial such as hellebores, or horsetail, or Mexican bamboo, or thrift, or (ask my wife, remember that I can’t remember what they all are) for some of those aluminum cans with the words “Bud Light” on the side. Make sure the cans are full. That way, maybe I can finally find the source of all of these empties scat­ tered around the garden. Just email mike.barnhardt®davie-enterprise.com. - Mike Barnhardt Hellebores blooms early, usually starting in Feb­ ruary.

For homeowners, this means that soil samples will not be processed until the COVID-19 crisis and asso­ ciated staffing shortage is over. However, you can still sample the soil in your lawn or garden and have your samples ready to go. “Once the soil lab does start accepting homeowner sample.s again, we will put a notice on our website and you can mail in your sam­ ple.s,” said Susan Hawkins, Davie Extension horitcul- ture agent. From April 1-to approx­ imately Thanksgiving, the soil lab does not charge a fee to process soil samples, so you will pay only for the postage to mail the boxes. A drop box with soil test kits is located outside the door of the Davie Coun­ ty Cooperative Extension Office at 180 S. Main St., Mocksville. The kit.s consist of four soil boxes and the form which must be filled out and mailed with the boxes. If you need more than four boxes in a kit, call 336- 753-6100.

Here are a few new ideas for transforming your porch, deck or yard into an oasis of relaxation. Give your outdoor spac­ es a once-over and note what basic maintenance and cleaning are needed; sweep up porche.s and decks of de­ bris, dust off and move out­ door furniture out of storage and prune trees and plant.s that need it. This may be a good time to refinish or re­ stain an older deck. Give some time-worn wooden furniture a new paint job in a bold hue. You'll need a safe, code-compliant and unob­ trusive way to power fans, lighting, entertainment, ap­ pliances and more. To add an outlet to raised outdoor floors, porches and decks, consider installing a Deck Outlet Cover from Hubbell TayMac. It let.s you put the power where you want it - in a place where people are less likely to trip over cords. Given the broad scope of weatherproof furnishings, cushions, pillows and rug.s on the market, there is no reason your outdoor space.s can’t offer the same level of comfort and beauty as any den or living room. Be sure everything you install is weatherproofed and protected against the el­ ements, and that you select only outdoor-grade prod­ ucts. However, you can ex­ tend the life of certain item.s by taking extra precautions during extreme weather and the off-season. By giving your home’s outdoor spaces the same attention to detail as the in­ doors, you can extend your living spaces and even cre­ ate new “rooms.” nCome see how the selling diesel zero-turn mowei seri perfo- rns comfortably on even th* biggest awns. •ACS deck technology reduces fuel const'nption and iproves cutting i-;>ertomance • iai d .-i ec : d av c ec Lu Together we do more.

For a new site, incorporate compost or other organic matter when tilling the soil. Add a 2- 3-inch layer of compost and till it in 6 to 8 inches deep. In subsequent years, just add the compost to the top of the soil, like mulch. Now it’s time to plant. You can still plant cool-sea­ son crops like broccoli, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, carrots, collard greens, kale, leaf lettuce, mustard, on­ ions, pac choy, peas, pota­ toes, spinach, and turnips. Some crops, such as peas, are best seeded directly into the garden. Others, such as broccoli and cabbage, are better from transplants so that they will mature in time. Some crops, such a.s lettuce, may be sown a.s several small plantings in succession to extend the harvest period. As the weather warms into April and May, plant warm-season crops such as squash, green beans, lima beans, tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant. Be sure the soil is really warm t>efore you plant peppers and egg­ plant, as both those crops do poorly with cool soil. Once seeds and trans­ plants are in the garden, give them consistent mois­ ture. In case we hit a dry spell, use soaker hoses or drip irrigation, which help.s keep moisture off the leaves which help.s prevent dis­ ease. You can mulch with newspaper, straw, or leaves. You can use almost any type of. organic matter, but be careful if you use grass clippings. If the grass was treated with herbicide, the herbicide can carry over for quite some time and damage vegetable plants. Scout your garden fre­ quently for pests and diseas­ es. Keep ahead of them so that problems don’t get out of hand. Hand-picking is a good way to eliminate pests. Minimize the use of pesti­ cides, and you will be more likely to have beneficial in­ sects that will help you keep pests under control. For help with diagnosis and control of p>ests and diseases, call the Extension Office at 336-753-6100 or email smha wkin ® ncsu.edu. (StatePoint) Whether you want to boost the beau­ ty of your home for your own enjoyment or you’re looking to sell, expert.s rec­ ommend taking a top-down approach to evaluate the outside of your home. “When making updates to your home exterior, it’.s helpful to think of how all the parts of the whole work together to create a unified look,” says Kate Smith, chief color maven with Sen­ sational Color. With that in mind, here are a few remodeling ideas to get started. The Roof A new roof not only adds aesthetic appeal, it can add value. Remodeling’.s Cost vs. Value 2020 report shows that a roof replacement can have a retum-on-investment of over 60 percent. Composite roofing is par­ ticularly durable, long-last­ ing and low-. Not only does a high-quality roof help home-sellers get foot traffic, but the low-mainte­ nance aspect resonates with house-hunters. An attrac­ tive, more affordable alter­ native to the real thing, the composite slate and shake roofing options available from manufacturers like Da Vinci Roofscapes reduce maintenance concerns, of- lawn Mower Belts, Bearings & Hydraulic Hoses For Homeowner & Professional Mowers — NOW STOCKING —Hydraulic Oils For Ail Types of Equipment Tri-Power Inc. — FOUNDED IN 1983 — 362 Milling Road • Mocksville, NC 27028 Locally Owned & Operateil Local 336.751.5348 • Toll Free 1.800.222.1106 mnii.iTlpoimrtiearlngs.com SOUTHERN STATES DAVIE FARM SERVICE, INC.

You’re likely already fa­ miliar with the importance of exterior curb appeal. According to experi­ enced realtors, it’s Just a.s important to continue that concept after walking through the front door. “As the saying goes, 'you only have one opportunity to make a first impression,”’ says realtor Vincent A. Stan- son, a Realtor associate with Berkshire Hathaway Home Services. “When that front door op>ens, homeowners have the chance to impress their guest.s with a stunning stairway system, stand-out mouldings and decorative interior accents.” Ceiling-to-Floor Transform a room top to bottom with decorative mouldings and millwork, starting with the ceiling. Add warmth with wood beams in a horizontal or criss-cross pattern, or sim­ ply accent the ceiling with stand-out crown mouldings. Working your way down, frame windows with straight trim and rosette.s in the cor­ ners. Throughout the room, add chair mouldings, man­ tels and floating shelves. Remember, mouldings don’t need to t»e plain, es­ pecially if you want to make an impact. So, replace any humdrum casing, crown, chair and base mouldings with elements that pop, such as those that feature leaves, grapes, vines or criss-cross ribbon patterns. Step Up Stairways Often a focal point, a stairway system is a crucial area where homeowners can step up their game, and doing so doesn't have to be overwhelming. "There’.s a definite trend underway of people mix­ ing metals and woods on stair systems and through­ out the home.” says Kelly Miller, director of market development for LJ. Smith Stair Systems. "Rather than completely take down an existing wotxl stair system, many people are turning to the easy project of replac­ ing wood balusters with iron balusters. Then they’re leaving the wotxl hand rail.s and newel post.s for a styl­ ish, upgraded look.” View installation de­ tails and additional tips at Ijsmith .com. fering impact-, fire- and wind-resistance, as well as the peace of mind that comes with a warranty. This is a good choice for those with a clear color palette in mind, and those who might need some di­ rection, as resource.s include a color visualizer offering users the ability to see how different colors may look on their home exteriors, as well a.s e-books with project inspiration and advice. Vis- i t WWW.davinciroofscapes. com. “Using these free color tools can be both fun and empowering,” says Smith. “They take the guesswork out of crafting a pleasing exterior color palette for the home and help create in­ creased curb appeal." Siding If your home sports tra­ ditional siding, you may have noticed that the tiles contract and expand in fluc­ tuating weather conditions and temperatures. The color of these thin and can fade. Rather than replacing siding with more of the same, consider composite siding built to resist impact, fire, mold, algae, insects, salt air and high winds. Walkways Cracked or uneven walk­ ways and steps are not only an eyesore, they can pres­ ent a tripping hazard to you and guests. Evaluate whether it’.s time to give yours an overhaul. Select low-maintenance materials that complement the look of the other elemenLs of the ex­ terior. This i.s a good time to consider lighting that adds drama to the walkway and makes for safer walking. Sprucing up? Go for high-impact project.s that boost curb appeal and add value to the home. cr F=l T=l 3 Commercial & Residential Lawn Care — PLUS — Parking Lot Striping & PARKING LOT STRIPING Rustin Harpe, Owner 397 Green Hili Rd.

If you ask 4 year-old Josie Orsillo, she would say “Face­ time your friends!” In Josie’s case, many of those friends are the octoge­ narians at Somerset Assisted Living in Mocksville. She has been staying in touch by send­ ing them video updates twice a week from her grandparents’ living room. Last summer, when Josie wasn’t playing with her dolls or with her little brother, John Michael, she could often be found hanging out with the folks at Somerset. Josie, who stays with her “Gigi” Kim Crowley while her parents are at work, accom­ panied her grandmother to Somerset Assisted living to volunteer. During those visits, she sang songs, rolled cookie dough, served punch, decorated cupcakes, played games and enjoyed visiting with many of the residents. Her grandmother states; ’■ I was an activity director for many years at a nursing home in Rowan County, and know the tremendous impact children have on the elderly. A lot of our residents came to us with physical limitations or struggled with mobility and many simply gave up when they were placed in long term care. “When the children were around, however, they forgot their own physical limitations, and became encouraged. They stretched themselves a bit, leaned forward in their chair, extended a hand, and engaged in conversation.” Please See Josie - Page 8 It’s not as good as a bug, but visiting via FaceTime is working for Josie Orsillo and her friends at Somerset Court of Mocksville. 2 deaths; 20 cases Davie showing gradual uptick of COVID-19 Two Davie residents have died from COVlD-19 compli­ cations, and the total number of cases reported so far in the county has climbed to 20. “The case count in Davie County continues to rise but does not rellect the true ex­ tent of COVID-19 in Davie County." said Suzanne Wright, health director. "Many people with COVlD-19 do not show symptoms, but are still conta­ gious. Stay home, socially dis­ tance, wash your hands, don’t touch your face, and act like everyone is contagious. "Symptoms do not look the same for everyone. Outcomes do not look the same for every­ one. What has to be the same for everyone is staying six feet away from each other at all times, frequent handwashing and use of hand sanitizer, keep­ ing hands away from your face, cleaning surfaces, and staying home and away from others. "If you are sick or have been exposed to someone who is, stay home. The spread of COVID-19 starts and end.s with you.” Wright said. The 20 number of cases in­ cludes the two deaths, and two people who have recovered from the virus. The two deaths are believed to have been caused by community spread - one was in their 6<)s, the other in their 80s - and they died on April 1 and April “Our continued prayers are with families who have been impacted by COVID-19,” said County Manager John Eller, who praised the community, medical personnel and others on the front line. “Our community ha.s come together to help others in need,” Eller said. "(We) appre­ ciate our staff, local medical and health care profession­ als, law enforcement, towns, schools, non-prolits. business­ es, churches, responders, vol­ unteers and state and federal partners working tirelessly to support our residents. You have all been inspiring,” he said. 1918 flu pandemic news dwarfed by war By Marcia Phillips For the Enterprise Current events remind us of the deadliest medical crisis in history, the Influenza pandem­ ic of 1918, and reminds us how much worse things could be and were then. 1918 was a different time, in every sense of the word. Rarely has a century in world history brought more changes and improvements that could have alterer^ the death rate then. Within a few months, the 1918 pandemic had claimed more than half a million vic­ tims in America and between 40 and 100 million worldwide. First mistakenly called the Spanish Flu, the 1918 influen­ za sounded exotic and distant from rural North Carolinians. Furthermore, the world’s attention was consumed in the fall of 1918 with the end of World War I, the most horrific conflict ever witnessed with fire that fell from the sky and trenches that became instant graves in the onset of chemical warfare. Every news item told of the first and the worst in military history. Davie County young men were still being called up to serve in the war in Europe as late as October (It ended famously on the 11 th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918). At the same time a quiet enemy was surging across the country undetected until too late to distance one­ self from it. The virus moved quicker than the weekly news­ paper could inform citizens of its arrival. It seemingly came out of nowhere and did not appear at first to have been taken seriously enough. While the WW I warfare was the most frightening ever widely known to man. plagues and epidemics were common in world history with the most recent having only been 28 years before. •Almost every generation had come to expect a med­ ical crisis but rarely before had it been considered more than a local outbreak in a time when few people trav­ eled as widely as now and large gatherings were family reunions and camp meetings. Not surprisingly the travelers who brought it home were the returning soldiers and the large population concentra­ tions were military camps. Please See 1918 - Page 4 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 9, 2020 - 3 2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 9, 2020 Editorial Pa^e How much toilet paper has Burr stockpiled? The Literary Corner Renegade Writer’s Guild I wonder how much toilet paper Richard Burr has stocked up at home. One roll, two rolls, 200 rolls? You know Richard Burr. He’s our U.S. Senator. It turns out that after learning something about the coronavirus in late January and in February, he and his wife sold some million dollars worth of stock, some of it in companies that are taking a hard hit now. Pretty smart financial move, right? Maybe. There’s an investigation, and likely, he will not be punished. Maybe he didn’t even do anything wrong. Maybe he did. It sure looks and smells fishy. One way to know if the Burr family did anything wrong is to check their toilet paper supply. If they’re loaded with paper, lock ‘em up. If they’re limiting its use because it is in short supply, give them some slack. If they’ve got plenty of paper, maybe when he leaves Washington he can become a financial advisor to the wealthy, well heeled and well wiped. Either way, I never trusted a man who refuses to wear socks - even when wearing suits. It seems this isn’t the first time the United States has been worried about paper for the back side. In 1973, when gas rationing started, a Congressman quipped that the next thing we knew there would be a toilet pa­ per shortage. Johnny Carson made a joke about that comment on The Tonight Show. The Congressman spoke, and people laughed and snarled. Johnny Carson spoke, and people got serious and went into action. People panicked and bought up pretty much all of the toilet paper that was on the shelves in stores across the country. Those who didn’t, well, they were left behind. Or their behinds were left behind. A quick sampling of friends (That number is small, very small.) show that toilet paper hoarding is not that uncommon. It turns out that even without a pandemic, most households have enough toilet paper to last for months. We may run out of ketchup, but not toilet paper. We may run out of laundry detergent, but not toilet paper. Heck, we may even run out of beer (Chills just went up my spine.), but not toilet paper. When you think about it, that hoarding of toilet paper makes sense. You can go to the store and buy another bottle of ketchup, but going to the store may be a bit difficult if you’re clinching so hard you can’t walk. And who wants to short-step waddle up to the counter at the store with a pack of toilet paper - red faced, clear­ ly in agony, afraid to speak, worrying that any second you could lose your clinching power? The clerk may chuckle. Or worse, start a conversation. Or even worse, change the paper in the register, or casually open a new pack of dimes to give you change. Keep the change. Donate it to charity. Just give me my toilet paper. That shortage is happening again. Actually, just as it was back then, it’s not a shortage. There’s plenty of paper out there, it’s just that a few have a lot and a lot have little. Stores can’t get it in fast enough. Our toilet paper distribution system- can’t keep up with the demand. And to tell you the truth, if I went to the store tomorrow and the shelves were full of toilet paper, I’d buy a package or two, even though there’s enough at home to last a few weeks. Why? Because I remember the toilet paper shortage of March 2020. It was an awful, terrible time. The worst. Butts everywhere, but paper only here and there. I’ll be glad when all of this mess is over and we can put the problem behind us. - Mike Barnhardt “A Few More Kind Words ” By Julie Terry Cartner The dirty, brown pup, shaking with fear, bristling with anger, and wagging with hope stood just beyond Dad’s reach. Ignoring the world around him: the chaos of trac­ tors plowing up the winter rye crop, turning the rich, dark soil over and preparing it for spring planting, the gravel spewed up by farm trucks as they carried fertilizer, lime, and seed to the other waiting tractors, and the cadence of men, farmers, who relished the winter rest but were now antsy to get their hands and plows into the dirt. Dad pa­ tiently waited. Statue-like in his motionlessness, yet yield­ ing in his invitation. Dad held out a scarred and mottled hand, offering friendship to a stray dog. No doubt the pup wanted the kindness offered, but feared the dangers of a potentially unkind human. And yet, he belly-crawled forward, one agonizing movement after another, only the tip of his tail tentatively wagging as he stretched out an inquisitive nose, no doubt smelling the tantalizing scent of the dog biscuits Dad always carried in his pocket. Warily the dog eyed the treat held out inviting­ ly to an animal starved, not only for food, but also for at­ tention, kindness, a warm and welcoming voice. Undoubt­ edly, the earthy scent from Dad’s hands, his clothes, his entire being was also welcoming to the cautious canine. Keeping his voice low and his hand steady, dad crouched, getting level with the pleading brown eyes. “You can do it,” he encouraged along with murmuring other words I couldn’t hear and probably couldn’t understand even if I could. The words emitted in a cajoling voice weren’t for me, nor were they about me. They were about a relation­ ship between Dad and the dog as they formed the first tenuous bonds of friendship. Slowly, agonizingly slowly, the dog reached forward, as far as his neck could extend and gently grasped the biscuit from Dad’s outstretched hand, then backed away quickly, as if that one act of courage was all he had. Without taking his eyes from Dad, he gobbled up his treat. “Good job, good boy, you’re so brave,” said dad as he held out another biscuit. “I knew you could do it.” No doubt, in the next few minutes, the dog would be snuggled against Dad’s flannel shirt gobbling up more biscuits, and from that point forward, he would be Dad’s forever friend. “Amazing,” the man beside me said. “Your dad has a way with animals.” Overhearing the comment. Dad reiterated his trademark mantra. “All he needed was a few kind words.” As we deal with the corona virus pandemic, which ha.s taken over so much of our lives, let us remember my dad’s words. “All we need are a few kind words.” Life i.s hard right now, and yet I see so many good things happening. I see people reaching out to help others. I see people mak- :__________ ____* JiL __________________________> __»i_. _ original expense or the personal memories attached to ob­ jects. Minimalism is not popular in our affluent society. After downsizing two years ago and taking photos to re­ member some objects by, I later felt a sense of relief that I wasn’t under the burden of too much stuff. It could be that you’re never through with this weeding out, but some “experts” say to get rid of anything you haven’t used in a year. Other people say to bless somebody else’s life with it. Still others advise to determine if that object brings you joy. Maybe this time of seclusion will give you a chance to determine if you really need everything in your home. Use it or lose it. Where are they now? Hannah Beck returns home to work and raise family The Oavie Community Foundation is sharing a con­ tinuation of the “Where Are They Now?” article series. Enjoy learning about former scholars and the thing's they are accomplishing. By Madison Hartness Davie Community Foundation For Mocksville Elementary School teacher Hannah Beck, Davie County has always been home. Her small town childhood experience was complemented by aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents living just down the road. Throughout Hannah’s time as a student of Davie County Schools, multiple teachers made an impact on her life. These special individuals helped shape Hannah into the person she is today and inspired her desire to impact future generations of students by becoming a teacher. To pursue teaching. Hannah attended UNC Greens­ boro where she studied Special Education K- 1 2 and went on to obtain a master's degree in behavioral and emo­ tional disturbances. In 2(M)8, she married Andrew Beck, her high school sweetheart. Following Andrew’s time in the Navy, they moved their family back to Davie County in order to share the experience of a small town upbring­ ing and family oriented connections with their children. Now in her lOth year of teaching, Hannah is an ex­ ceptional children’s teacher at Mocksville Elementary School. She strives to leave a positive impression on her students, build relationships with them, and continually remind them that she is in their comer supporting them. When she’s not teaching, Hannah loves to spend time with her husband, two sons, Colton (8) and Lincoln (4), and extended family. The members of the Beck family are dog lovers and have a boxer named Lula and a ma- linois/shepherd named Valor who is working as a police K9. They often spend family time outdoors, in the moun­ tains, or at the beach. Hannah was a recipient of the Roy and Ruth Eldridge and James and Esther Wall scholarships.

Statesville, NC , 28677 ing an extra effort to communicate and virtually visit with others. I see so many people stepping outside of their com­ fort zones to embrace technology as a means of visiting with family and friends, and to connect with students and co-workers. I see teachers struggling to provide valuable lessons and support for students who are scared, confused and sad. I see store employees, restaurant owners, and de­ livery people who I’m sure would rather be safely home with their families, yet they are still putting extra effort into being kind to shoppers who are also scared and would rather be home. And, of course, I see medical and emergency workers, doctors and nurses, who go to work every day to take care of those in need, even when that means they can’t even be in the same house with their own families for fear of infecting them. I see compassion. I see love. I see human­ ity at its finest. We will get through this, and hopefully, we’ll carry the lessons we’ve learned forward into the next years and decades. After all, sometimes all it takes are a few kind words. “Saving Things” By Marie Craig I have taught a lot of people to tat. If you don’t know, tatting is a thread art which ties one knot after another. It’s a little tricky to learn but is a wonderful craft because it’s so small that you can always have it with you, and it costs only about $8 to get started. I have met some wonderful women and a few men who have taken my class. Some of them remain friends many years later. When I lived in Columbia, S.C., I taught tatting for the city system of continuing education classes. Their goal was to enhance the lives of people who lived alone or who were old. In one of my classes, there was a woman who was about 85 or 90 who learned to tat easily. I always begin with a cord about the size of a Venetian blind pull. Then we transition to crochet thread a little smaller. This woman was doing real well with my beginning threads. She had brought a small box of threads with her. I sug­ gested that she choose one of her beautiful threads and tat something special that she would enjoy using as an embel­ lishment on clothing or a pillowcase. “Oh, no,” she said very emphatically. “I’m saving these threads.” So she sat and watched everybody else tat some­ thing special. But those threads were not to be used. I’ve pondered this over the years and wondered if we are all guilty of this stubborn declaration. Do you have sil­ ver flatware or delicate china or lace tablecloths that never get used? Perhaps members of your family have never even seen them. As I drive down the highways, I see all these storage facilities. I can understand if you’ve moved, for example, and your house is not ready that you must put your be­ longings somewhere. But I imagine that’s not the typical scenario at any of these many storage buildings. Perhaps people just can’t use what they have or can’t turn loose of unnecessary items. Decluttering is painful because of worrying about the “Here at Home ” By Gaye Hoots The Coronavirus ha.s given us a different perspective on life. Values have changed. We are hoarding toilet paper and no longer need movie stars, famous sports figures, or executives. The value of truckers, healthcare workers, and grocery store employees has skyrocketed. We are also missing our hairstylists and waiters/waitresses. This probably affects my generation less than others. We are retired and not worrying about losing our jobs. On the other hand, we are concerned about employment for our children and grandchildren and the economy. The stimulus will help but this is not a gift; it is a loan added to the nearly 20 trillion dollars of debt that our children will inherit. Our chances of getting the virus are greater than those younger than us, but we are probably worrying about other-s more than ourselves. Social distancing is not that difficult, but I am still getting take-out food. I tell myself it is to support the restaurants during this time but mostly I just don’t want to cook. I am calling to check on friends and doing some read­ ing and writing. It would be a good time to get housework done but I prefer reading. Luckily, I live close enough to family that they could drop off things if I needed them. I am keeping the twins because their mother works for a medical facility and their babysitter ha.s pneumonia. I would caution anyone who gets any cold-like symptoms to isolate, use Tylenol instead of Advil/Motrin, and call for help if breathing becomes difficult. It i.s interesting to see how others handle this pandemic. We have adapted to losing more than 60,000 people in a year to flu and feel that a vaccine will protect us from it. I am guessing now that the FDA ha.s approved two drug.s to treat the virus, some of the panic will subside. Hopefully there will be a vaccine. There is so much information, and so much misinfor­ mation that it is confusing. Common sense tells us that each person we have contact with increases our chances of contracting the disease, but it is hard to completely avoid family members. There is fear we may not come through this with our families intact, fear of a financial disaster, and an underlying tone of anger for many. The media seems to fuel the anger, report all the worst possibilities, and to pit one person against another. One example of this was the governor of NY’s request for 30,000 ventilators. The president was criticized for saying he did not believe NY needed that many. NY’s governor did not have numbers to support that request. At present there are 9,000 patients with the virus hospitalized in NY. His request was because he feared the numbers would rise and he is responsible for NY. The president is responsible for 50 states. I guess people are home and spending more time reading, I would urge you to track the figures and try to distill the facts. Our president is trying, our governor is trying, but we must take responsibility for ourselves and respect the guidelines. Most of us are very fortunate. We have food and toilet paper, and are willing to share if needed. If we are retired, there is less financial pressure. We are praying for our chil­ dren who work in healthcare or are still working with the public. The children who are home from school seem to be handling things well, getting their schoolwork done via computer, and talking to friends on the phone. Great effort has been put forth to get food to the children who depend on school to provide their main meals. You see a great volunteer response in all areas, and this is heart­ warming. We may not have reached the apex of the disease here, but hopefully we have slowed things down. I believe we will come through this in good shape here in Advance. The more highly populated areas may not be as lucky. Prayers are much needed now for all of us. We are all in this together and all praying for a safe outcome. ••• For more information on Renegade Writers Guild, visit www.renegadewritersguild .wordpress .com. • •• Submit a favorite memory of life in Davie County.

Thursday, April 9,2020 - 54 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 9, 2020 1918 ... Continued From Page 1 demographics reveal that more baby boys survive infancy than girls but that ratio is reversed by wars. Additionally, it was further impacted in the early 20th century by the pandemic. One such encampment was Camp Jackson near Columbia, S.C. where soldiers were waiting to be shipped out and returning from action. Ominously the latter brought back with them a strain of influ­ enza that was particularly virulent and deadly, even for healthy young men. It struck the camp in August and within days hundreds were sick and many dying. Included among these, the Davie Record tells us, were 21-year-old Lee Powell from the Center community who had just been inducted three months before and Dr. Marcus Calvin Hauser from the Fork community who was treating the sick soldiers. Sadly, both caught the influenza and did not survive it. Sept. 1 saw Maxie God- bey join the camp, like so many others excited for the adventure of their young lives, only to die Oct. 21 having never shipped out. Instead, his body was escorted home to also be buried at Center Methodist Church cemetery. His older brother Filmore Godbey survived, returned home to have a family and lived to the age of 69. Another Fork doctor. Garland Vestal Green, was stationed at other camps and returned to practice locally for decades. The Davie Record had surprisingly few articles about the influenza during the peak of the epidemic in October and November, instead being swamped by the numerous war stories. Plenty of advertisements of tonic promised to cure it but the obituaries tell the real human toll. A mother and two small children of hers in Cooleemee passed away and Mr. and Mrs. Atwood died within 12 Prepare for later, now. Contact me for life insurance.

Young adults were also hard hit like 20 year old Bessie Dixon and 24 year old Grady Ratledge. Per­ haps the last local victim lingered a month and died on Jan. 30, 1919 when Virgil Foster joined his an­ cestors in Rose Cemetery. He was 15. There are not great medical records of the many who had the influ­ enza and survived. If only there was an equivalent to obituaries marking recoveries. The newspa­ per does record that some communities like Advance only had light cases while Cana and Cooleemee were particularly hard hit. And families suffered concen­ trated losses as they shared the same crowded spaces and germs. On a brighter side, the Ferebee family in heavily affected Cana welcomed a newborn in the midst of the pandemic in the waning hours of World War I that would grow up to participate in the end of World War II; they named him Thomas but this event went unnoted in the local news. Ironically, the Davie County soldiers who shared bunkers with thousands of others at Camp Jack- son might have crossed paths with another influ­ enza casualty there named Private Roscoe Vaughan, who became sick on Sept. 19 and died on the 26th but became a historical figure decades later. Physicians were overwhelmed then, as now, and mostly moved from one patient to the next but remarkably a Captain Hegeforth took a sample of Pvt. Vaughan’s right lung tissue immediately after his death and preserved it in formaldehyde and wAx. It was stored in a vast govern­ ment warehouse in Wash­ ington DC (think Indiana Jones and the ark of the Virgil Foster, shown with his siblings, and Maxie Godbey were victims of the 1918 flu pandemic. covenant) for almost 80 years. Many scientists had tried to isolate and iden­ tify the deadly virus but it was only possible when this preserved sample was discovered and studied in 1996, from a long deceased soldier from Camp Jackson. The virus that took a lifetime to identify could not have been prevented medically at the time; it moved faster than sci­ ence could keep up. The government didencourage citizens in the newspaper to “guard against droplet infection;” however, quar­ antine was not widely em­ ployed - “the town fathers do not think the situation serious enough to compel families of those afflicted to stay off the streets and out of stores” (Davie Record). Precautions no doubt would have saved many lives and will be the hallmark of the history of this current virus when it is told. To learn more about this story, Marie Craig’s book Davie County in World War I tells the soldiers’ life stories and the book Flu by Gina Kolata is the fasci­ nating account of how the mystery of the 1918 virus was solved.

Wood’s Grandfather Was His Teacher “Repairing grandfather clocks was one of my grandfa­ ther’s many side jobs for 20 years plus, remembered Grant. “One day he asked me if I would like to do this with him. So from around my senior year in high school and all through my college years, I was his apprentice.” Grant has now been on his own for about six years. Grandfather Clocks Passed Down Generations He makes house calls for repairs and also moves clocks for folks who may be relocating. His shop hours are by appointment only. Grant mentioned that most of the grandfather clocks he repairs are family heirlooms that have been passed down from generation to generation. “One of the oldest grandfather clocks I have worked on was dated back to the 185O’s to 186O’s,” Grant said. “I got a call from a guy in Salisbury and the clock was just laying in a storage unit and had quit running. I djd some work on it and got it running again.,’' The most common problem that occurs with grandfa­ ther clocks is owners not having their clocks serviced regularly. Grandfather Clocks Should Be Serviced Regularly “I recommend a grandfather clock be serviced every three years. There is a lot of wear that goes in with the steel and brass components in the clock that needs lubrication and service.” I asked Grant what the most expensive grandfather clock that he has worked on was and he said $5,000 plus. “Sometimes it’s hard to put a retail value on pre 1900 clocks but I have definitely worked on some expensive clocks.” Grant said. “Sometimes folks find grandfather clocks at estate sales and think they have found a gem but a lot of the time it just turns out to be worth about what they paid for it at the estate sale.” Shop Location and Phone Number Grant said it usually takes him around an hour to service or repair a grandfather clock. His shop is located at 1291 Peoples Creek Road in Advance. Grant can be reached at (336) 251-3655. ADVERTISE YOUR BUSINESS HERE! Call TODAY To Put The BUSINESS SPOTLICHT To Work For YOU!

Josie ... Continued From Page 1 She said that several depressed residents would absolutely light up when school groups came into the facility. “Their whole demeanor changed. They smiled, laughed and joked with the children. One non-verbal resident even began to speak again. Then after the children went home, it gave the residents something joyful to talk to each other about. They laughed more, they ate better and they slept great after a visit from the kids. It was so remark­ able, I will never forget it.” When she retired in 2016, Kim Crowley knew she wanted to find a way to volunteer with her own grandchildren. He reached out to Somer­ set’s activity director, Angel Parrish, who was enthusias­ tic about the idea. “Anytime kids are in­ volved, I know the resi­ dents are gonna be happy,” said Parrish. The residents enjoyed Josie’s visits so much that Parrish began post­ ing videos on the facility’s FaceBook page for the residents to share with their families, titling them “ Sweet Josie Jams.” While she knew it would be beneficial to the resi­ dents, Kim was unprepared for the positive impact volunteering would have on her granddaughter. “She was around 2 years old when I first began tak­ ing her for short trips to sing songs to them during their lunch in the dining room. Once or twice a week, after I picked her up from preschool at First United Methodist, we’d go across the street to Somer­ set and be in and out of the facility in less than 10 min­ utes. It was enough to plant the seed. She enjoyed the undivided attention she got from the residents. Nobody was on their cell phone, and no one was ever too busy to talk to her. Children love that, and it builds self­ esteem. “So she began wanting to do more, and that snow­ balled into our monthly Friday cooking class at Somerset, where we pre­ pare simple recipes with the residents. Josie, who has her own apron and chef’s hat, helped prepare the tables and passed the ingredients out to residents, chatting was she worked. It was during that time that I saw that child grow in confi­ dence and communication skills. “ Now that the seed has been planted in Josie, she has inspired her parents, Kenny and Casey Orsillo to visit Somerset as well. Kenny and his band “Down the Mountain” have performed at the facility on several occasions, with Josie “playing” along on her purple princess guitar. Casey loves the rela­ tionships her daughter has formed with the residents. “The most important thing in life is to be loved and to show love. During this quarantine, if we can ease someone’s loneliness and learn empathy for others, is there a better life skill to learn than that?,” Casey said. Josie joins “Down the Mountain” for a few songs at Somerset (above), brings smiles as she interacts with residents (below). and ► The#! capitalized major bank in the US.

MEMBER FDIC Sj^orts DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 9,2020 - BI Oct. 2, 1986 War Eagles impressive in CPC opener Editor's note: At a time when sports are shat down, we take a look at some of the memorable moments from Davie County- sports history. By Ronnie Gallagher Davie Enterprise Record (Oct. 2, 1986) “Now, that i.s the way to run the wishbone.” That wa.s the consensus of Davie County football fans who finally watched their team at its grind-it-out best Friday night in a 27-19 victory over Parkland. The Central Piedmont Con­ ference victory suddenly thrusts the War Eagles into the league spotlight at 1 -O while evening their record at 2-2. “It sure feels a lot different than last week,” said an elated coach Mike Carter afterward in a jubilant locker room. “We proved tonight that when we give ourselves a chance to win, we’ll get good results. We didn’t self-destruct to­ night and you see what happened.” After fumbling seven time.s in the first three games, Davie’s slick-fingered offense banged heads with the Mustangs and the result was a total of 59 plays. Be­ sides steady offensive play. Carter received another present; The very hot night made the no-huddle offense that much more effective. Parkland, which uses many of its players both ways, wa.s dragging by game’.s end. “We feel that offense is to our advantage, because when we get up to the.line, they have no choice but to play,” Carter said. “It defi­ nitely wore them down tonight.” Still, it was anything but an auspicious start for the War Eagles, who fell behind quickly 13-0. When Mike Bethea’.s 37-yard field goal attempt wa.s blocked after Davie had moved to the Parkland 20, the fan.s were fidgeting in their seats. But just before halftime, Da­ vie marched 73 yard.s with Todd Please See 1986 - Page B2 I* “ The sideline explodes in celebration as Davie beats Parkland in the CPC opener. Feb. 7, 1991 1 Bryan Custer (right) beats Tabor’s Trevor Thompson at 112 to run his record to 24-4. Wrestlers settle score with Tabor By Ronnie Gallagher Davie Enterprise Record (Feb. 7, 1991) Considering Mt. Tabor tied Davie’s wres­ tling team in an earlier match this season, some thought the War Eagles may be nervou.s when the two met in the Central Piedmont Conference dual team championship Friday night at South Davie Junior High. They thought wrong. Davie was too mad to be nervous. The War Eagles won the first five matches, ran up a 22-0 lead and then held on for a 37-26 victory. Davie earned the league’s top seed for this week’s state tournament. It was to face Hunter Huss Tuesday and if victorious, was to wrestle again Friday at Grimsley, which is hosting the state tournament Friday and Saturday. “We weren’t going to get beat,” said Davie coach Buddy Lowery of the title match. “For the first time in a long time, our guys went out there upset. They were going to win.” Davie advanced to the finals by defeating Dudley in the first round and Grimsley in the semifinals, 47-20. Early Lead Matt Wilson got Davie off to a quick start, pinning David Harrison. “Wilson has been hurt by injuries and we kept him out of the semifinals,” Lowery said. “I told him he was going for it against Mt. Tabor.” Bryan Custer then won a 9-0 major decision over Trevor Thompson. Custer is the CPC’s top 112-pounder with his 24-4 record. “Custer is beating people with experience and strength,” Lowery said. “He has an advantage because there aren’t many 112-pounders who are seniors.” Lowery thought the biggest win was Jon Ward’s 5-4 decision over Brian Johnson. “I knew right then we’d win,” he said. “Ward’s win was the turning point. He came into this tournament 0-3 against.people he wrestled -<» 'N from Grimsley and Mt. Tabor and beat both of them.” When Brad Kropfelder and Matt Page contin­ ued the wins. Davie had the 22-0 lead. Darren Cook wa.s the only other Davie wrestler to win on the mat, although Jamie Caudle and John Coulston received forfeits at 145 and 189, respectively. Tabor won five of the last eight and four of the last five. “I thought we wrestled well, probably as well as we have all year,” Lowery said. "It was the best atmosphere. There were two matches we got up for all year, this one and Central Davidson. We won by 1 1 but we’re 15 points better than them when we wrestle well." Beating Grimsley Lowery wasn’t a.s concerned with Grimsley in the semifinals and gave Wilson a rest at 103 and Cook a breather at 140. Kendall Walker lost only 8-6, while Benjy Frye got a chance to wrestle at 140. Ward defeated Alex Acres 10-5, another key match, raising his record to 27-5, “Ward had lost two close ones to Acres,” Low­ ery said. “Acres is good.” If Davie continues winning and makes it to Grimsley, its first foe Saturday morning could be East Gaston. The two are ranked 1-2 in 4-A. "I like the dual tournament,” Lowery said. “You can win the individual tournament with three or four good wrestlers. But this is more a team effort. You have to be solid all the way through. “We’re looking pretty good. At one time, it seemed like everybody was sick. But we’re over that. Page is wrestling his butt off and everyone else is doing well. I think they’re looking forward to the tournament.” Lowery seemed a bit troubled by the lack of wrestlers this season in the CPC. "Going by the number of forfeits, I just don’t know,” he said. “Maybe the interest is going down. Maybe it’s because there is no middle school Please See 1991 - Page B2i March 7, 1996 Girls basketball stuns Barksdale, West Forsyth By Brian Pitt.s Davie Enterprise Record (March 7, 1996) After losing twice to LaQuanda Barksdale and West Forsyth in the regular season, the Davie girls bas­ ketball team got the last laugh in the Central Piedmont Conference Tournament’s championship game Friday night at Reynolds. In the final minute. Page Steed used her free-throw touch as a sledgehammer and pounded the Titans into submission, 44-33, as Davie ( I 7-8) won the tournament for the third straight year. After failing to win the regular season for the first time in three years, Davie carried the No. 2 seed into the showdown against the top-seeded Titans, who fell to Da­ vie in the final for the third year in a row and saw their w inning streak against CPC opponent.s end at 13. The main reason West was a heavy favorite wa.s the highly-tout­ ed Barksdale, a junior center who has committed to North Carolina. Despite 50-45 and 60-44 losses to West. Davie coach .Mike Dinkin.s remained a believer. “Yes, I really did," he said. ”1 felt like we played them tough at our place (in 50-45 defeat). With a few bounces, we could have won.” After Barksdale put up monster numbers (31 points, 25 rebtjunds. seven blocks) in a 74-55 semifinal win over North Davidson, she only managed nine point.s against the War Eagles' suffocating 2-3 zone. West was also frustrated by Davie's deliberate offense. “We tried a defense that we haven't used much all year, and by gosh it worked,” Dinkins said; “We used the zone against Tabor to stop (Nina) Lekwaiwa, and I thought if we could get by Tabor that it would help us here. We ran it in that game just to run it in this game.” West led 29-26 in the fourth quarter before Davie’s Jonette Williard sank two free throws. Tami Ramsey nailed a 19-footer from the comer, and suddenly Da­ vie had a 30-29 lead that it would not relinquish. Williard scored by rebounding her own miss, and Ramsey’s l-for-2 trip to the line provided a 33-29 lead and set up Steed’s clutch free throws. With 1:39 remaining. West coach T.R. Richards ordered his team to foul Steed every time she touched the ball. Considering Steed’s focus all year wa.s setting up the offense anc^istributing the “We tried a defense that we haven’t used much all year, and by gosh it worked.” - Coach Mike Dinkins ball, considering she had scored 20 points all year, it seemed like sound strategy. But Steed foiled the plan by making si.x straight free throws in a 38-second span. When she was done. Davie had an insurmount­ able 39-29 lead with 61 second.s to go. "I felt confident w ith Page at the line." Dinkin.s said. "She shoots them well in practice. I knew if she hit the first one that she would be OK. Tammy (Reavis, assistant coach) told me to keep Page in the game." Steed said: "1 don’t shtxit much. ■No, 1 wa.s not really nervou.s and not really surprised. 1 remembered what Beth Wall did to them last year. They came into the gym and said they were going to beat Davie for the third time. That wa.s the main thing tonight.” Senittr leaders Williard and Ramsey sang the third verse of a triumphant song, the upset giving them 64 w ins in 84 trie.s and three tournament titles in their three- year varsity careers. Ramsey: "We were pumped. We played really gtxxl defense (on Barksdale). Yeah, nobtxJy thought that we would be here." Williard; "We wanted it more. Now we get to shave Dinkins’ head.” West guard Kelly Tremblay hit two 3-pointers in the first quarter to put her team in control, 1 2-8. In the .second quarter, Davie gained confidence by outscoring West 11-10. After trailing by three at halftime, the War Eagles staggered West with a 7-1 run in the third. "I figured I'd take the air out of the ball,” Dinkins said. “The night before they scored (74) px:»ints. I thought it would frustrate them." West rallied, taking a 29-26 lead with 5:17 left. But Davie, going 14 of 18 from the line in the fourth, out.scored West 18-4 from there and only allowed three Titans to score - Tremblay with 14, Jennifer Wood with lO and Barksdale’s subpar nine. Ramsey led Davie wi^ 15 BH! B2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 9,2020 1996 ... Continued From Page BI points and eight rebounds. Williard had lO points and nine rebounds. Steed (six) did all her scoring at the line. Laura Moyer had six points and four boards. Car­ rie Brill had four points and six boards. Roxanne Steele chipped in three points. “We knocked the big dog off the porch,” Dinkins said. “The season couldn’t have been any better. If you’re going to beat West Forsyth, then beat them in the finals of the CPC Tournament.” Road To The Final In the first round at home, Davie knocked out South Stokes 43-27. Williard scored 18 by making 8 of 11 free throws. Davie outlasted Mt. Tabor 51-48 in a thrilling semifinal. The War Eagles 1986 ... Continued From Page BI Morgan slipping over from two yards. The six-point deficit held up when Neil Kennedy stopped a last-sec­ ond drive with Davie’s first interception of the season. The momentum carried over into the third period as Davie took the kickoff and drove 63 yards on 14 plays for another score that gave the Eagles the lead, 14-13. Johnny Riddle bulled over from three yards for his third touchdown of the season. With Bethea and Mike Cartner pressuring quar­ terback William Bitting, Parkland was forced to punt jumped ahead 15-7 before the Spartans fought back to tie at halftime. Davie trailed 44-41 with 3:10 remaining. That’s when Brill and Steele came through under pressure. Brill hit two foul shots to make it 44-43. After Tabor scored, Steele swished a 3 for a tie at 46. Williard took over from there. After her two free throws tied it with 1:27 to go, Davie regained posses­ sion and milked the clock. Then Williard buried a 22- foot 3-pointer. Tabor had the last shot but missed a 3 with three seconds on the clock. Brill had 15 points and six rebounds. Williard had 11 points and five rebounds. Ramsey had 10 points and seven rebounds. Steele had nine points and two huge 3s. on its next possession. Mel Perez was hit late and the extra 15 yards gave Davie good field position at the Mustang 46. Seven plays later, Bruce Bullock’s four-yard dash gave Davie a 21-13 advan­ tage with 1:07 remaining in the third. It was Bullock who kept the drive going when he scampered 15 yards on fourth-and-1 from the Parkland 37. In the third quarter, Da­ vie ran 21 offensive plays to only seven for Parkland, and Carter praised his defense for that statistic. “Our defense put more The War Eagles savor their upset win over West Forsyth in the 1996 CPC Tournament final. Below, Mike Dinkins, Tammy Reavis, Roxanne Steele, Wendi Cartner, Amanda Hendrix and Nikki Davidson. pressure on the quarterback in the second half and the rush made a difference,” he said. “It was harder for Bitting to throw when he was being chased all over the place.” Bitting did scramble ef­ fectively on a long drive early in the final quarter, locating John Malloy on fourth down for a touch­ down, cutting the margin to 21-19. He completed the pass with Bethea hanging on his waist. Bethea made up for it on the extra point, howev­ er, pressuring Bitting into throwing an errant pass. “That was a big play,” Carter said. “It helped keep the momentum on our side.” Defense produced the Eagles’ final score. After a Davie punt, Joey Deal, subbing for an injured Mike Jarvis, dove for an intercep­ tion that the offense turned into a touchdown. Quarterback Rodney Latham started the drive with a nine-yard run as Da­ vie drove 36 yards in only six plays. Bullock scored his second touchdown of the game and fourth of the season. With a 27-19 lead. Deal put the game away with 1:46 left with another in­ terception. The game was critical in that with another loss, the Davie faithful may have written off the season. But not now.

North’s Lewis gets game-winning hit in softball finale Raelyn Lankford and Callie Jenkins scored in the fourth inning and North Davie’s softball team rallied for a 2-1, season-opening win over visiting Chestnut Grove on March 9. The momentum carried over from 2019, when the Wildcats went 9-4 for their most victories in five years. After Lankford scored the tying run, Maddie Lewis knocked in Jenkins with a hit. Addie Hendrix made sure the 2-1 lead stood up. The pitcher threw a spar­ kling one-hitter, thanks in part to Lewis’ four catches in center field. The game was shortened to five in­ nings by the time limit. Jenkins (single, triple) was the offensive star for third-year coach George Newman. North got one hit from Ashley Bledsoe, Carleigh Croom, Lewis and Lankford. • •• Two days later, however. North’s five-game winning streak went up in smoke on the road. Southeastern Stokes piled up 16 hits and dominated 9-1. North got eight hits, in­ cluding two from Bledsoe (2-2, double, RBI, stolen base) and Lewis (2-3). Lankford tripled and Hen­ drix doubled. Alyssa Mar­ tin and Chloe Smith had singles. Ellis was blown out in its opener, 14-0 by visiting Chestnut Grove on March 9. The Jaguars had as many hits (three) as errors. The hits came from Ja- dyn Davis, Tatum Tolar and Brayden Brooks. One day later, the Jag­ uars fell behind 3-0 in the top of the first and lost 7-5 to visiting North Carolina Leadership Academy. Their seven hits were offset by eight errors. Carly Crouch had a big day in defeat, going 3 for 4 with three RBIs. Kaleigh Allen was 2 for 3 with a walk. Davis (1 -3, walk) and Cora Nicholson (1-3) had one hit each. South Davie (0-2) losi 16-0 in three innings al Forbush on March 9. JV soccer ends short season with a tie After Davie’s JV soccer team opened the season with losses to North David­ son and Carson, Christine Cao injected hope by scor­ ing against Parkland at the 15-minute mark. Davie would not break into the win column, but it did take a step forward in a 1-1 tie with the vis­ iting Mustangs on March 10. Cao’s goal, giving her two of Davie’s four for the season, stood up the entire first half. The lead lasted roughly 50 minutes. Then, with four minutes remaining. Park­ land punched one in. “We were against the wind, and unfortunately we let one slip by us,” coach Johnny Oceguera said. Oceguera, who cited goalie Sophia Aguayo’s six saves, walked away pleased. “We played a great game,” he said. “All the girls did great. Sophia did excellent at keeper, bringing her total to 30 saves.” Bishop 3, Davie 0 South Davie, Ellis soccer had 2-0 starts The encouraging devel­ opment did not grow legs. Diminished by three side­ lined starters, the War Ea­ gles (0-3-1) were shut out at home by Bishop McGuin­ ness on March 13 - the final game before the CO VID-19 shutdown of spring’^sports. “It was a tough game,” Oceguera said. “We were missing three starters. I hate to sound tough or mean, but not much good went our way.” The one positive was Aguayo. “She stopped a fjenalty kick and had some other great saves during the night,” he said. “She is very athletic.” DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 9, 2020 - B3 Tax Preparation Service 36 Robinhood Orde, Winston-Salem, NC ACCOMMODATING HOURS TO FIT YOUR BUSY SCHEDULE Contact Barbara or Buddy Hutchins to schedule an appointment (336) 345-5877 (336) 416-8174 Black Sand Company Sand, Geaval & Landscape Materials "•since 1S37~ Residential & Commercial Mark dt Cindy Shexf, Ownen Monday-Friday 7:30-5 JO • .Saturday 8.-OO-3KK) PICK UP OK nEIJ\'ERY < TemmonsniDe Road • VMnstoo-SaJem, NC H-ww.blaclu<u>ndco,cnm (336) 788-6411 'ST Bostick Auction Service —NCdEL tfS273 — We specialize in Estate Auctions with over 40 years of experience.

Vogler & Sons Funeral Home 2849Middlebrook Dr., Qemnions Serving tVinston-SaJem, Clemmons, and Surrounding Areas South Davie’s soccer team was 2-0 with a whop­ ping 21 goals when the sea­ son was stopped by corona­ virus. Both cakewalks were over Lexington, including a 9-0 home decision on March 10. “We played better than we did against them the first time,” said coach Russell Hilton. Skylar Link did the most damage with five points (three goals, two assists). Sara Andrade was next with four (two goals, two assists). Putting in one goal were Kimberly Torres, Catherine Rosser, Madison Hayes and Sam Froelich. Providing one assist were Yuli Bustman- te, Angie Bustmante and Rosser. South’s defensive fury flowed from Holt Carter, Hayes and Ashtyn Andrews. “I don’t think they had a single shot on goal, so our defense was much im­ proved,” Hilton said. “We possessed the ball longer. We weren’t rushing down the field. We really worked on our passing and we kept control of the ball longer.” • •• In its season opener at Sacred Heart on March 10, Ellis allowed its first goal since a 2-1 loss to Sum­ mit on April 11, 2018. No matter. The Jaguars, under eighth-year coach Leah Reynolds, rolled 5-1. One day later, they passed a stiff test, winning 1-0 over visiting Lexington. The 2-0 start extended Ellis’ winning streak to 19, a span that has seen the Jaguars score 128 goals to oppo­ nents’ one.

Ashley trucks moving goods As the country comes together in a time of need, Ashley Furniture Industries, (Ashley) is lending a help­ ing hand. Throughout the course of a week, Ashley donated 1,102 mattresses to a variety of non-profit organizations across the United States. The total value of the dona­ tion is more than $200,000 worth of product. “With everything going on in the world right now, there are basic needs that many individuals do not have access to, such a.s a bed to sleep on. Ashley Fur­ niture is humbled to be able to donate these mattresses to a number of organizations that are working to help get those individuals and fami­ lies the profjer assistance,” said Todd Wanek, president and CEO. “We hope this do­ nation helps ease some of the stresses in life, so they may focus on staying safe and healthy.’’ Ten organizations throughout the U.S. were recipient to Ashley’s mat­ tress donation, including children’s organizations, churches, shelters and non-profit organizations lo­ cal to the company’s man­ ufacturing and distribution facilities - the communities they call home. These orga­ nizations all share similar beliefs to Ashley, to enrich the lives of those around us and provide essentials for those in need during devas­ tating times. Ashley’s Distribution Services has been hauling essential goods across the country to fight the spread of COVID-19. In addition to the delivery of the mat­ tress donations, the fleet ran emergency loads last week, hauling medical supplies and masks from New Jersey to North Carolina. Ashley has also taken on extra loads to haul paper products, gro­ cery items, water, agricul­ tural supplies, pet food and more throughout the states, f !

Suzanne Wright, director of the Davie Health and Human Services Department, gave an update to county commission­ ers during a telephone meeting on Monday afternoon. And while residents contin­ ue to live under a state-mandat­ ed stay at home order, at least one county commissioner said that by the end of April, such decisions should be up to the counties, not the state. Wright said there have been 22 lab confirmed COVID cases in Davie County. Two of those people died, and all but one has been through the required quar­ antine time, or have recovered. Three required hospitalization. She said several of the lo­ cal cases were contracted at church functions, not necessar­ ily in Davie County, a couple from travel, one from caring for someone else with the vi­ rus, and the others by commu­ nity spread - meaning there’s no known source. "You run the risk of con­ tracting the virus everywhere.” Wright said. “Some of them Please See Virus - Page 7 / 1 ■ ■■ 'i- •A A’ Drive around egg hunt There were dozens of Eas­ ter egg hunts planned at area churches and com­ munity centers, but they were canceled because of the coronavirus.

' i V K By Beth Cassidy Enterprise Record Kathy Miller is a hoarder but you won’t find her on any of those television shows. Her home isn’t in shambles from years of neglect, there ar­ en’t newspapers stacked from floor to ceiling, and she’s not going to need an inter\'ention. In fact, she has turned years of hoarding fabric into a new business to keep her going during the coronavirus pan­ demic. Many know Miller from her decades of professional photography as owner of One Shot Photography but she re­ cently opened The Farmhouse at Gemini Branch, a wedding and event venue on the family farm, which be^an operation in 1872. A renovated home on the property was restored for overnight stays. It sounds like the perfect situation for everyone, but the first wedding was scheduled for March 21, when there were more than 24,000 confirmed cases of Covid-19 in the Unit­ ed States. What was supposed to be a dream wedding with dozens of attendees was reduced to a party of IO as the governor tightened restrictions on the amount of people who could gather together. Miller said she went from having bookings to having empty bams. “I was trying to figure out how to cover the expenses of renovation,” she said.

And I was listening to music. John Prine, to be exact. And then I listened to a recent interview of Prine. I’ve always been a fan, listening to his music since the mid- 1970s. He’s the greatest songwriter who ever lived. The next morning, I learned that John Prine had died on that Tuesday due to complications from the coronavirus. Sure, it made me sad. But it was also uplifting, because I know that his music will live on forever. And I know that on his last recording, he wrote a song “When I Get to Heaven:’’ "When I get to heaven. I'm gonna shake God’s hand Thank him for more blessings than one man can stand Then I’m gonna get a guitar and start a rock-n-roll band Check into a swell hotel; ain’t the afterlife grand? And then I’m gonna get a cocktail: vodka and ginger ale Yeah, I’m gonna smoke a cigarette that’s nine miles long I’m gonna kiss that pretty girl on the tilt-a-whirl ‘Cause this old man, is coming to town." The interview I watched that Tuesday included Prine and Sturgill Simpson, who admitted early on that he didn’t be­ long beside Prine swapping stories. Prine’s were too good. Prine talked about visiting his grandparents in a nursing home at age 14. He noticed many of the residents had long, sad faces - and no visitors. • A few years later, he penned the song, “Hello In There,” which includes the refrain: “You know that old trees just grow stronger. And old rivers grow wilder every day. But old people just grow lonesome. Waiting for someone to say. Hello in there. Hello.” Pretty good insight into the human condition by a 14 year old, right? John Prine was a mailman outside of Chicago, and wrote songs while walking along his route. He became friends with fellow musician Steve Goodman, who later died of cancer at a young age. Goodman talked Prine into singing his songs at an open mic night at a local club. On the first night, Prine said, he finished the first song, and the 15 or so people in the crowd didn’t move. They didn’t speak, just sat there with their mouths open. He was ready to walk off the stage when one person stood and began clapping, and then all 15 stood and gave him a standing ovation. And this was after his first song ever performed in public. That song? “Hello in There.” The owner of the club hired Prine on the spot for a regu­ lar gig. Soon after, Goodman had opened a show for Kris Krist- offerson in Chicago, and insisted the star go to hear his friend John Prine. When Goodman, Kristofferson, Paul Anka and someone else made it to the club Prine was play­ ing, it had closed. But they lined up four chairs in front of the stage, and Prine performed his show one more time. When he finished, Kristofferson told him to play all those songs again, and anything else he had written. Kristoffer­ son was hooked, and shared Prine’s music. Soon after, Prine and Goodman went to New York and walked in on a Kristofferson show. He invited them to a “party” at Carly Simon’s apartment. Bob Dylan was there. Before the night was over, Dylan was singing Prine’s songs. And that was Prine’s first night in New York. A few nights later, Prine was performing there and Dylan was his guest on harmonica. When he introduced Bob Dylan as his backup, folks in the crowd didn’t believe him. He was a mailman when Reader’s Digest put an Ameri­ can flag with gum on the back in every issue. Of course, it led to a song, which includes the line,: “Your flag decal won’t get you, into heaven any more. We’re already overcrowded, by your dirty little wars.” He wrote “Angel from Montgomery,” made more fa­ mous by Bonnie Raitt, with the line: “How the hell can a person, go to work in the morning, come home in the evening, and have nothing to say. ” He was in the movie “Daddy and Them” with Billy Bob Thornton and Andy Griffith, and Billy Bob asked him to write a song about the movie. The movie was a total flop (“It went straight to Blockbuster,” Prine said.), but the song, ‘In Spite of Ourselves,” lives on. I could go on and on with quotes from Prine songs. But for now, take a listen to his music. - Mike Barnhardt To the editor: We recently lost a legend with the death of Coach Joe Ferebee at 101 years of age. A native of Davie County, he treasured his roots in Davie. His accomplishments in baseball were many. The Row­ an County American Legion and Pfeiffer University teams have been heralded as evidenced by his many halls of fame inclusions. His teaching and molding the characters of young men are equal to his on the field contributions. I had the privilege of being in his first recruiting class at Pfeiffer College in 1956, and playing baseball there for four years prior to playing professional baseball. I authored a short book in 2009-2011, “Growing Up In Advance” and I wrote that “Coach Joe Ferebee set an ex­ ample for all of his players for the rest of their lives,” that Coach Ferebee was the best coach of fundamental baseball who I ever knew.” A list that included Lasorda, Reisdere, Snyder, Hartsfield and Barstoc, managers who I played for at times during my professional baseball career. I still recall many conversations with Bobby Cox, my teammate for three seasons, who became one of the great managers in Major League Baseball. I would speak of Coach Feebee’s influence in the development of my career while playing collegiate baseball. Bobby would have loved to have had that opportunity. Coach Ferebee was proud of his baseball accomplish­ ments and awards but even more proud of developing and influencing the lives of young men, including his three sons who played for him at Pfeiffer, or his U.S. Navy train­ ees during World War II. His death ends an era and his wisdom will be missed. Brack Bailey, Bermuda Run iii' ji I i ul , i t.,.

Barnette From the time I was a child growing up, I have always loved Easter. When I was a little girl, my Mother, an ex­ cellent seamstress, always made us new dresses for Eas­ ter Sunday church services. We were a family that went to church on Sunday mornings, Sunday evenings, and Wednesday night—in other words, if the doors were open, we were there. Yet Easter Sunday was different and special, mainly because of new outfits and the process of coloring and hiding eggs, plus the usual chocolate bunny. Mother always fixed a basket for me filled with that green paper grass and the dyed eggs. I loved the process of hiding and finding the eggs in our yard. My cousin Natalie and I en­ joyed egg hunts together. Both of us were only children and played together often. As I got older, none of what I talked about above was a big deal anymore. Of course, I alway.s attended church and understood the religious significance of Easter, however, but I think I thought more about a new outfit than I did a new life. Now that I am only one year away from the big 80, Eas­ ter is the most important time of year, both in nature and in church. When I look outside, I see all of our trees leafing out; flowers and shrub.s are blooming; birds are chirping and flying around on the breeze, stopping for dinner at our bird feeder; grass is green; the sky is Carolina blue, and the sun is shining. In the church this is a special week too. On Thursday Maundy Thursday and Good Friday our services will be online, as will the Sunday morning sunrise service at Joppa Cemetery, the same place where our church. First Presby­ terian, started over 250 years ago. At the end of the ser­ vice, the pastor will proclaim “Christ is risen; He is risen indeed.” So in spite of CO VID-19 causing us to have to celebrate Easter differently, let us all find hope in the death and res­ urrection of our Lord, knowing that He will never forsake us! Christ was the fulfillment of all of the Old Testament covenants, and he was the sacrificial lamb of God. His Father did not take the cup from him, but Jesus took it from us. Now it is up to us to do his work in the world. That was his commandment. “Two Trapped Rabbits” By David R. Moore My father told me this story that was from his childhood in the early 1930’s. He and his cousin, CW, were both around ten years of age and living with their grandparents on a rural farm. I told Grandma that CW and I were going to the river to fish. We got our cane poles, dug a can full of worms, and grabbed a gunny sack to hold the fish we were expecting to catch. CW came up with the idea that we take Grampa’s mule and ride him to the river. I reminded CW that just two weeks ago, Grampa got terribly mad the when we got the mule out and rode him without getting Grampa’s permis­ sion first. He told us that we’d get a good tanning if it ever happened again. CW just laughed and told me that Grampa was old and slow and would never be able to catch us. We could run fast, fast like rabbits. Even though it was against my better judgement, CW and I soon had a halter on the mule. We were making good time with both of us riding bareback to the river. We were excited about fishing with our cane poles and knowing that we would soon have a mess of fish for supper. On the way to the river, we spotted a pit next to the path. We stopped to investigate. There were two trappted rabbits in the bottom of that pit. Well, this changed our way of thinking. Instead of fish, we could have rabbit for dinner. It didn’t take us long to come up with an idea to get those rabbits. I dropped down into the pit and, after a short time, caught one of those rabbits. When I threw him up, CW was to catch him and then put the rabbit into the gunny sack. Well, I threw the rabbit up, but my aim was way off, and the rabbit just ran off after it landed. CW didn’t even have a chance to grab it. After I caught the second rabbit, I was going to make sure that my throw was good. CW was lean­ ing over the edge, waiting to catch. My throw was good, but the rabbit was twisting and kicking so much that CW couldn’t hold onto it, and in no time the rabbit was gone. Well, I quickly realized that I was in a little trouble. The pit was deep and the walls of soil were soft, so I couldn’t grab a hold of anything to climb out. Again CW came up with an idea that seemed pretty good at the time. He took off his belt, and then lying on the ground, he wormed his way to the edge of the pit. Holding onto one end of the belt, he lowered it down to me. I was to grab it and he would pull me out. In order for me to reach the belt, CW was forced to lean over the pit rather far. Well, that plan did not work out. Instead of him pulling me out, he soon joined me in the pit. Grampa’s mule got tired of staying with us and went back home. He was soon in mule heaven eating away in Grandma’s vegetable garden. Grampa soon put two and two together and eventually found us. I remember him saying “Now, don’t you look like two trapped rabbits.” “The Unenjoyable Ride” By Kevin F. Wishon After making a five-point turn, the oldest boy in the group, Paul, steered the old Dodge around other seem­ ingly abandoned vehicles. Once freed from its confines in a pasture, he drove the car along an overgrown path before reaching the highway. Elation poured forth from the group as they celebrated having found a free joyride. Behind a curtained window, a figure observed the heisted car’s de­ parture from a nearby house. Relieved to be out of the bit­ ing cold, Paul increased the vehicle’s speed, and soon, the group was comfortably warm. However, a.s they approached their hometown, the car’s engine began to sputter, and their joy faded. A realiza­ tion quickly became apparent. Something must have been wrong with the vehicle’s engine. That’s why the car was abandoned in that pasture. Paul pulled the car to the side of the road. There the foursome sat waiting, hopeful until the engine surged one last time and died. Within moments, cold air crept into the interior of the car, and the group rec­ onciled themselves to a long walk home. No one spoke as they walked quickly to replace the warmth the wind was stripping from their bodies. Short legs put Timmy, the youngest of the boys, at a disadvan­ tage as he struggled to keep up with the group. After an hour of walking, Timmy fell behind, and soon, he found himself walking alone. He had tried to keep warm, but the wind burned his face and hands until they were red and painful. Moment.s later, Timmy heard a car slowing as it approached him on the side of the highway. “Hey, kid. You need a ride?” Timmy usually refused ride offers from strangers, but his numb, achy fingers and burning nostril.s made it too tempting to resist. He nodded to the smiling fellow inside and climbed into the old Ford Galaxy. The warm interior was glorious, and Timmy was grateful as the circulation returned to his face and fingers. Nearing his hometown, he spotted his friends, still walking along the side of the road, approaching the city limits. Feeling guilty, Timmy slumped down in the seat, a.s they passed. “So, where do you want me to drop you off?” asked the friendly driver. “The grocery store that’s coming up on the right. Stop there, and I’ll walk the rest of the way home. It’s not far.” Reaching the store’s .driveway, the fellow pulled the Ford into the parking lot and came to a stop to allow Tim­ my to exit. “Thank you, sir,” Timmy said. Pushing the heavy car door closed, he looked at the driv­ er, smiled, and turned to walk away. “No problem, kid. Just one more thing.” Turning to see what the fellow wanted, Timmy realized the man was no longer smiling. “So tell me. Exactly, which one of those boys, in that group back there, talked you into taking my old Dodge for a joy ride?” Please See Renegade - Page 3 Letters Welcome The Enterprise Record welcomes letters from its read­ ers on topics of local, state, national or international is­ sues.

Her goal is to be part of something that will impact people’s health and lives in a positive way. Kacy spends many hours in the lab doing experiment.s to benefit her thesis project which is focused on improving vaccines against whooping cough, a respiratory bacterial disease that impact.s mostly young children and infants. When not learning about other areas of research, Kacy shares her own research with the scientific community. She has given talks at the International Symposium on Borde- tella in Brussels.

Continued From Page 2 "On Going to Church " By Stephanie Williams Dean This week many of us will reflect on how strange it seemed to not be at church on Sunday. This is especially true for those who attend church regularly. But for some pteople, Easter Sunday might be one of only a handful of times they attend church. Some participate on holidays, and many others don't attend at all. As a Chaplain at the hospital. I've often had patients say to me, "I'm not sure if I'm a Christian or not because I don't go to church." I explain that being a Christian has nothing to do with going to church, and we talk about what it means to be a Christian. When I share the gospel, I must emphasize the funda­ mental message of Christ a.s Creator and the entrance of sin and death, which establishes the foundation. To share a message with no truth of Christ, His crucifixion and resur­ rection would be a gospel without any power. And to share a message without including the coming Kingdom would be a gospel without hope. Everyone need.s hope. When I accepted Jesus Christ, He blessed me with sus­ taining joy and a sense of peace. The Holy Spirit within me also created a genuine desire to worship with fellow Christians and be part of a church family. You don't have to attend or belong to a church to be a Christian. Still, you'd miss out on hearing the inherent words of God and the joy of worshipping together — especially when we join togeth­ er, reciting, "For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory, Forever. Amen." I still get goosebumps. I have a small fire that bums for Christ. It's true, and it's amazing. Imagining my life with­ out God, my church, and Christian family is difficult. If you're not active in a church but are open to attending, my hope for you is that you’ll visit a few churche.s and see where you feel comfortable. Hopefully, the Lord will speak to you as He did for me, and lead you to your own church family. And it's always good to remember that it's not what we're getting, but what we're giving. Hill-based non-profit organization that provides hunger re­ lief and nutrition education to local children, Kacy worked a.s an undergraduate researcher in a biol­ ogy lab where her passion for using experiments as tools to answer scientific questions developed. Her study abroad to London proved to be impactful in her education and influ­ ential in her career choices. While abroad, she took courses that focused on the history and biology of infectious dis­ eases throughout London’.s history. Kacy's desire to pursue a career in infectious disease research wa.s inspired by the creative medical solutions of Edward Jenner, who discov­ ered vaccination with his vaccine for smallpox; Alexander Fleming, who discovered antibiotics; and John Snow, who pioneered one of the first theories of "germs” to trace a cholera epidemic to a drinking water source. During her free time at UNC-Chapel Hill, Kacy loved going to basketball games with friends (especially when beating Duke wa.s involved), eating her way up and down Franklin Street, and going to concert.s at Cat's Cradle, Now a.s she works toward her PhD, she spends her free time baking desserts, reading, hiking, and spending time with family by playing board games and cooking together on holidays. “Davie County is, and will always be, home to me. It’s a community that ha.s uplifted and supptorted me, and continues to do so even when I'm not there physically. I will always be grateful to my family, friend.s, teachers, and mentors for shaping me into the person I am today.” What advice would you give to a high school senior? • Check in with yourself often. Make goals for yourself based on what makes you feel happy and fulfilled. • Learn to give yourself grace when those goals change. Know that no achievement is ever a waste, because all kinds of skills and experience are valuable assets. • Pursue your goals and believe in yourself, knowing all the while that you have a strong community behind you to provide support and encouragement.

Kathy Miller stands in front of the barn at The Farmhouse at Gemini Branch, where she has been making protective masks from scraps of material she found around home. t . Families ‘hop’ around town Meredith Wagstaff got it started, asking on Facebook for Mocksville friends to hide eggs in their yards, on windows or mailboxes. The idea was for families to drive around, looking for the eggs in yards. It was something to get the kids excited about Easter since they wouldn’t be on any group Easter egg hunts. It turned into “Hop Around Mocksville - A Ride Around Town Egg Hunt.” Allison Gupton took the idea a step further, creat­ ing a Facebook page asking people to participate. The locations of where the eggs would be was posted. “The creativity by the hiders was fun for the hunt­ ers of all ages,” Gupton said. The eggs were put out Saturday morning, and re­ mained through Sunday. Neighborhoods joined the fun, so did businesses. “There were egg.s with messages of hope to re­ member the reason for the season, eggs strung from porches, eggs hidden in windows, doors and all over yards,” she said. “Whether this was a one­ time thing because of the unique circumstances creat­ ed this Easter or something that takes place year after year, one thing was for sure, this Easter activity was fun for kids and grown up.s and was used to spend time to­ gether, laughing, creating and being grateful for new adventures and memories made, and most important­ ly, helping maintain some normal in this uncertain time.” -L Molly Rae, Mia Claire and Tate Myers remind folks that Jesus is alive.

Continued From Page 1 And then her sister- in-law called and asked Miller if she could sew a few fabric mask.s to send to her daughter, who works in health care. It wa.s like putting a match to a pile of leaves. That request sent Miller to closets and bins and bags, from where she produced yards and yards of fabric and elastic, some from another sideline she has producing custom chil­ dren’s clothing. She made a mask prototype but wasn't satisfied with it, but on the second try, she produced one she felt would be more effective and faster to produce. “We posted our silly photos of us wearing diaper cloth masks on Facebook, and the rest is history. I never even posted any­ where else that we were giving away or selling masks. People have Just reached out to us.” Likely fueled by Presi­ dent Trump's April 3 rec­ ommendation that Ameri­ cans wear non-medical cloth face masks, the orders began to pile in.More than 300 masks have been produced, with orders for hundreds more coming from all over the state as well as from Florida and Maryland. Flight attendants, con­ struction workers, restau­ rant workers, bank tellers, and healthcare workers have requested the masks. They can be made with elastic or ties, and custom fabric choices are avail­ able, as Miller ha.s hundred.s of colors and patterns from which to choose. There is a cotton filter inside each one, and both mask and filter are washable. There was no way Miller could keep up with the demand herself, so she The Brian and Amanda Harris family looks for eggs.

We now have six women sewing masks from home and are able to pay them to help offset the loss of their jobs," Miller said. She provides the masks free to people she deems to be in need.

Continued From Page 1 have no idea when they contracted the virus.” To complicate mat­ ters, some people have the virus and never know because they don’t show symptoms. Not all people who get and recover from CO VID are tested, she said. Her advice remains the same. Stay at home if possible. When out, stay six feet from other people, wearing a protective face mask, wash your hands frequently, and refrain from touching your face. She said the local health department received three test kits from the state when the emergency start­ ed. More were obtained last weekend, and they will be used to help protect medical personnel, first resjjonders, law enforce­ ment officers, and at long­ term care facilities. Most private medical providers can test for the virus, she said. In the be­ ginning, it took up to 10 days to get rest results; which is now two to four days. “There are a lot of peo­ ple who have symptoms, but the criteria for testing is fairly strict,” she said. County Manager John Eller said the county is trying to maintain services to residents while keeping employec.s safe. "Davie County government con­ tinues to provide services, we’re just doing it a differ­ ent way." Board member Mark Jones said Davie needs to follow the lead of Gaston County and urge the gov­ ernor to start lifting some of the restrictions that are causing economic hard­ ship after April 30. He said he read a report that said that half of the small busi­ nesses couldn’t survive a prolonged shutdown. “The governor is paint­ ing a very broad brush with this stay at home order. We need to put North Carolina and Davie County back to work again ... before it’s too late for many of these small businesses.” He quoted Thomas Jef­ ferson, who said he prefers “dangerous freedoom over (jeaceful slavery.” The re­ strictions, Jones said, are hurting the economy and people’s morale. “Davie County is not like Mecklenburg Coun­ ty, Wake County, Durham or even Forsyth County,” Jones said. “We need to be reasonable and wise w'ith social distancing, but we can do that (and get back to work). We have got to do something for the citi­ zens of our state who want to work. “If the governor ex­ tends with a broad brush ... when the evidence for Davie County indicate.s we do not need these strict policies, we need to make contact with him.” Board member Benita Finney also said the eco­ nomic repercussions need to be considered, that get­ ting people back to work is important. Board members praised county employees and res­ idents, who are coming to­ gether to help one another. and home more than anything and loved her pets, Sncxjpy, Maisy and Smudge. She was preceded in death by her grandparents. Henry and Vetra Reep. In addition to her parents, survivors include; her hus­ band of 32 years, Tony Moore of the home; and 2 daugh­ ters, Rachael Moore (Daniel Layton) and Brianna Moore (Luca.s Allred); mother-in-law, Emma Lee Moore of Mocksville; and a sister-in-law.

Walker got the call in ‘19; posted 1.93 ERA By Brian Pitts Davie Enterprise Record Imagine getting promoted to Triple-A Gwinnett on July 5 and 19 day.s later getting called up to the Atlanta Braves. Imagine pitching a scoreless inning in your Major League Base­ ball debut in Philadelphia. Imagine holding the other team without a run in four of six appearances out of the bullpen in your first month in the big leagues. That's how Jeremy Walker'.s 2019 season unfolded between July 5-Sept. 15. By making it to The Show, he did something most ballplayers can only dream of. And once he became a big leaguer, the 24-year-old held hi.s own. The 6-5 righthander from Ad­ vance wa.s called up to Atlanta on July 24, roughly six years after going 7-1 for a 16-win Davie High team in 2013. The Braves were hosting - you can’t make this stuff up, folks - Whit Merrifield of Advance and Kansas City. Walker stayed in the bullpen ail night a.s the Royals beat the Braves 2-0. After an off day, the Braves headed to Philadelphia. It was the first game of the serie.s on July 26. It wa.s the bottom of the ninth, At­ lanta leading 9-2. Walker wa.s told “They like that I can go multiple innings. They said expand on what I did in 2019 and keep doing the same thing. Get fastball command, refine my pitches a little bit and build off last year more than trying to change.” - Atlanta Braves pitcher Jeremy Walker to get hi.s arm loose. The feverish energy left him numb a.s he trotted to the mound. “Honestly. I don't remember that much," Walker said last week. "I remember warming up and not being able to feel anything. It was a lot easier to get amped up for that game than any other game I've pitched in. 1 don’t really remember running onto the field. I Just re­ member getting to the mound and (catcher) Brian McCann giving me the ball and saying; 'Are you ready to go?’ I said: 'Yeah.'At that point, I had to be ready, you know?’’ Andrew Knapp greeted him rudely with a first-pitch single. After falling behind Scott Kingery 2-0, Walker induced a pitcher’s best friend, a 6-4-3 double play. Jean Segura flew out. Walker in­ troduced himself by facing three batters and shaking hands. "The first couple of pitches (to Kingery) were a little bit wild, but after that I .settled down and I got a double play," he said. "It wa.s quick; it wa.s seven pitches.” The next night. Walker wa.s back on the mound for the ninth inning. Again he faced three bat­ ters, striking out one to polish off a 15-7 victory. Two nights later, he put up an­ other goose egg, although he did walk a tightrope during Atlanta’s 6-3 loss at Washington. He walked three of five hitters, but catcherTy- ler Flowers threw out a ba.se stealer and Walker left with a scoreles.s inning to hi.s credit. A little over a week later, Aug. 8 at Miami. Walker worked 3.1 innings in a 9-2 loss. He threw 41 of 65 pilches for strikes, didn’t walk anyone and fanned two. He was nicked for a run - his streak of scoreless appearances ending at three - on five hits, A month later - Sept. 8, a 9-4 home loss to the Nationals - he allowed one run in 1.1 innings, although he whiffed three and threw 25 of 36 pitches for strikes. In a 7-0 loss at Washington on Sept. 15, Walker closed hi.s 2019 season on a good note, facing five batters in I .2 scoreless innings. Add it all up and Walker sport­ ed a 1.93 ERA over 9.1 innings. He gave up nine hits, two runs, walked four and struck out six. Opponents hit .265 against him. A pretty gtxid start to a major league career, right? Well, it wa.s a mixed bag to Walker. He felt edges that need a little sanding. On top of that, he doesn’t have a boastful bone in his btxly. "A lot of stuff could have gone either way,” he said. "The num­ bers were good, but I think I had a lot more that 1 could show that I didn’t. No matter how it would have ended up, I think I would have felt like that because there’s always room to improve. There’s always something else I could do to show them that I belong up there. (Overall) I felt good about it. It wa.s a start." The Braves (97-65) finished four game.s ahead of Washington and repeated a.s National League East champs. Walker did not make the playoff roster, which wa.s not a surprise considering he joined a formidable team. While Atlan­ ta prepared for a playoff series against St. Louis, Walker and other arms and position player.s were sent to Florida to stay sharp just in case they were needed in later rounds. But the Braves bowed out, losing three games to two to the Cardinals. Washington would win the World Series, beating Houston in seven games. "They sent me and three or four other pitchers down to Florida to stay hot in case they wanted to call somebody up after (the series vs. St. Louis),’’ he said. "They wanted to make sure we could be ready if there was an injury.” Before COVID-19 put a stop to all sporting activities. Walker was nursing a minor shoulder injury - thankfully nothing more than inflammation - so he didn’t pitch in any spring training games. They had me shut down.” he said. "Right when we left I was about to start throwing again. I’m good to go now. I was excited for spring training, so I was pretty bummed out whenever that hap­ pened.” When the 2020 season begins. Walker doesn't know if he’ll be in Gwinnett or Atlanta. Please See Walker - Page B2 Eaton Funeral: Family to Family... Generation to Generation The Marklin Family says, “Thank You”!

By Brian Pitts Davie Enterprise Record (Feb. 16,2006) It was Davie versus Cary. It was one of the greatest days in Davie High sports history here Saturday evening. It was two old rivals meeting again for all the marbles. The scenario in the state 4-A dual team championship was the same in 1993 and 2005, and both times Davie’s dream evaporated at Cary as the War Eagles lost by a combined si.x ooint.s and wallowed in despair about what might have been. They had knocked on wres­ tling heaven’s door six times in the dual-team tournament’s 16-year history and been denied five times. After falling one win short in four straight championship appear­ ances, the War Eagles found a way to write a new chapter in their lore, bringing the crown back to Davie with a 41-23 victory. This time Cary was left to wonder where it went wrong. “We got the (coin) flip all through the playoffs until today, and that was huge,” Cary coach Jerry Winterton said. “Our hands were cuffed. But on top of that, we wouldn’t have beaten them anyway the way we wrestled. They flat outwrestled us. They were well prepared. I can’t look back and say; ‘Well, we should have done this or should have done that.’ Because I thought we did what we had to do. The Davie kids earned it.” The No. 1-ranked Imp.s strutted onto the mat with a 39-0 record. They hadn’t lost since 2003-04, and they were in the title match for the 11th time in 17 years. Davie finished with a shiny 42-1 record. With two weight classes left, Davie’s 26-2 lead had been chopfjed to 29-23. Cary’s Trevor Dixon was going to be a clear favorite over Bubba Boger at 215, Davie looking for basketball coach PIe»se See 2006 - Page B2 Davie will have a new girls basketball coach in 2020-21. Kev­ in Revels resigned following an 0-25 season last winter. It wa.s the youngest team in program history - one senior, four sophomores and 10 freshmen. In regard to the coaching search, athletic director Mike Ab- sher said: "Obviously, in a p>erfect world, we’d love to have someone in place as quickly as possible,” he told the Winston-Salem Journal. "There’s a lot of moving parts. 1 mean, the chances of getting some­ body face-to-face right now isn’t going to happen for a while. But we’ve talked about other ways. It’.s not like we haven’t interviewed via other means of communication before." Revels, a history and civics and economics teacher at Davie, guid­ ed the War Eagles for four years, the longest tenure since Debbie Evans’ four-year run from 2006-07 through 2009-10. It wa.s one long rebuilding project under Revels as Davie went 15-82 overall and 3-39 in the Central Piedmont Conference. “He’s led our program in a posi­ tive way as much a.s he could,” Ab- sher told the Journal. "He’s been great to work with - a great teacher at our school. Tough situation, but he gave it a good effort. And I think he cared about the kids.” 7 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 16, 2020 - B3B2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 16, 2020 Walker... Continued From Page BI “They like that I can go multiple innings,” he said. “They said expand on what I did in 2019 and keep doing the same thing. Get fastball command, refine my pitches a little bit and build off last year more than trying to change.” When discussing 2020 possibilities, you see an unselfish side of Walker. “In the bullpen now, we have a bunch of guys who are established with contracts, and they should 2006... Continued From Page BI so Davie’s hopes essentially rested on the shoulders of Timmy Allen at 189. Coach Buddy Lowery declined the option of send­ ing out Boger against Cary’s Sean McHue at 189 and holding Allen for 215. He pushed Allen, the 2005 state champion at 171 with a 55-1 record, to the scorers’ table against McHue and said: “Let’s end it right here.” Allen and McHue dueled fiercely into the third period, with McHue leading 2-0, with Allen charging ahead 6-2, with McHue climbing back to 6-5. With an animated and jam-packed Davie crowd holding its breath, Allen nailed down the title in superhero fashion, pinning McHue with 21 seconds on the clock. Davie had an insurmountable 35-23 lead. Davie had won the Big One. A manic celebration was on. Everyone was hugging anyone they could find. “I know (McHue’s) be there,” he said. “I don’t think I should be taking any of their spots. They’ve earned it and they’re good. They said being able to throw multiple innings was big because most of those guys are one-inning guys. Coming into this year, I expect to be up and down from Triple-A. Obviously, I want to make the (At­ lanta) roster, but we have established guys who are older than me. I went into camp trying to earn a spot, but at the same time I’m thinking I’m going to play a role up there whether it’s in the middle of the season, toward the end of the sea­ son or I could get called up and sent back down. Whatever it is, they told me I would have a role. When you have options, you’re going to get sent up and down.” With everyone shel­ tering in place. Walker is living with his parents in Advance. “They wrote me out a program and a rehab thing to do every day,” he said. “It’s been good being able to hang out with family. It’s quality time with them and getting my work in every day.” The Braves have gran­ diose expectations for 2020. When the season will begin, of course, is uncertain. “Guys like Dansby (Swanson), Ozzie (Al- bies) and Ronald (Acuna), they’re around my age,” he said. “They’re young, they’re energetic and I think we’re set for a really good year. Hopefully it will still happen. We’ll just have to wait and.see.” Merrifield Stands At 247 The major leagues’ hits leader for 2018-19 has played in 247 consecu­ tive games, the longest streak among active play­ ers. Merrifield jokingly tweeted to Cal Ripken, who broke Lou Gehrig’s record in 1995 and played in 2,632 straight games: “Working on a 15 year ex­ tension so I can give your record a real run.” Ripken replied with a video on Twitter: “Hey Whit. Because of the 25th anniversary, people are talking about my streak a lot lately. But I did notice that you have the longest streak in Major League Baseball right now. I’d like to tell you it gets a heck of a lot easier after 300. ... I just want to say I think it’s a great thing. Your team can count on you. I would hope that you continue it. Good luck, man.” Tax Preparation Service 36 Robinhood Orde, Winston-Salem, MC ACCOMMODATING HOURS TO FIT YOUR BUSY SCHEDULE Contact Barbara or Buddy Hutchins to schedule an appointment (336) 345-5877 (336) 416-8174 Black Sand CompanySand, Grwal & Landscape Matariats Sifter 1027- Residential & Commercial A Cindy Shnaf.

N<* w-wM.hlMck.sandco.com (336) 788-6411 good, but Timmy’s better,” Lowery said. “But I didn’t think he would pin him.” The outcome officially went into the books when Cary forfeited to Boger. McHue, who helped break Davie’s heart in last year’s 34-32 win that handed Da­ vie its only loss in 43 match­ es, was disconsolate, and his teammates were as silent as you would be at a funeral. “They wanted revenge, and they got it,” Cary senior Nick Koren said. “It was at their home and they had their crowd. We should have taken that out of the equa­ tion, but we couldn’t do it.” With congratulations pouring all around, Low­ ery’s demeanor didn’t vary, even though it took him 11 years to gain his third state title. It’s his nature not to get too high or too low. Though he did hug wife Tara at least three times, he leaned back in his chair and talked in a low-key tone. “We did clock manage­ ment well and we were conscious of what the score was,” he said. “If it was a seven-point lead, we were working to get that extra point.” Davie burst to a 16-0 lead, the flurry starting with Garrett Parks’ 4-0 win at heavyweight. “I was excited once I saw we were starting at heavyweight because I knew Garrett was going to win,” Allen said. Kyle Smith pinned in the third at 103, while Russell Hilton, Adam Mcllwain and Chris Ange widened the lead to 26-2 by performing in vintage form. During that surge, Aaron Hollifield didn’t get an opponent at 130. Winterton could have sent out Graham Tull, but he elected to forfeit. “We moved our 1 30-pounder away from Hollifield,” he said. “There’s no sense in putting some­ body out there to get pinned by him and get this big crowd all fired up.” Davie knows better than anyone it takes a little luck to win it all, and Smith caught lightning in a bottle at 103, pinning a 54-7 Joey Farnsworth to prevent a 3-3 tie. Farnsworth was in front 2-0 in the third, but Smith kept scrapping and clawing until he found a magical pin with 50 seconds left. Fans jumped to their feet and shook their heads in wonder. “Once I got his legs, I wa.s just trying to get a reversal and get some back points,” Smith said. “It re­ ally wasn’t a move. That’s what you call a ‘gotcha,’ It was just one of those po­ sitions you get in and you know you’ve got to hold on. It felt great because in a match like this you really put a lot on yourself, and it really feels good when you win because you know you did your part.” The big lead was not a surprise. Parks is 42-2, Smith 38-6, Hilton 47-3, Mcllwain 43-7, Hollifield 47-2 and Ange 45-4. Even though Cary’s Lawrence White was 50-10, Mcllwain whipped him 9-3. “Unless he’s sick,you’re going to get it everyday,” Lowery said. “Mcllwain is a pest. Ange is about the same. You’re going to get everything.” The Imps trotted out horses at 140, 145 and 152, and they scored 15 straight points to close the gap to 26-17. But Josh Barnes stopped the bleeding with a superb 7-1 performance at 160. Thanks to Barnes, Davie needed just one win in the final three matchups. “The crowd was the No. 1 thing for me,” Barnes said. “We had a pep rally yesterday and I wa.s one of the speakers. I emphasized we’re so much better when we have a crowd behind us, and I owe a lot of the way I wrestled to them.” Jaspen Gray narrowly missed a lights-out win, leading 6-5 in the third. But Long Wang kept Cary alive with a pin. Allen was suddenly un­ der the gun. He didn’t even wrestle until late January as he recovered from a tom ACL. He hadn’t seen but 10 matches as a senior, all wins. Despite the “50-percent knee” and all the rust, Allen made Davie’s dream come true. “I had to win for the team,” Allen said. “Coach Lowery has been under a little stress lately - his mother is sick and I know it’s been bothering him - and I wanted to do it for him. Tho.se football players have gotten so close and luck runs out, and I just wanted to do it for them. I knew Lowery wanted (another) state championship so bad. Things didn’t fall our way last year (at Cary), and this year we knew we were go­ ing to win it. We had it in our hearts. “And I’m glad it came down to me. I didn’t know I was going to pin him. I was just trying to win, give us a nine-point lead and forfeit out.” Bostick V Auction Service — N'CdPC »6273 — Wc specialize in ELstatc Auctions with over 40 years of experience. Rea!

That’s what makes his busi­ ness so special. As owner of Perkins Roofing in Mocksville, Jesse treats each roof as if it was on his own home. If it isn’t good enough for him, it will not be good enough for you. That is the way Jesse treats each roofing job and customer. His work and integrity speak for itself. Jesse, a Reidsville native, became interested in roofing when he was just 13 years old. At age 17, the summer before graduating from high school, he began helping his brother in the roofing business. Af­ ter graduating the next year, Jesse moved to Davie County and has been here since. After years of working for other roofers, Jesse de­ cided it was time to go out on his own. So, in the fall of 1997, he started Perkins Roofing. “I have been roofing most of my life and that’s what I love to do,” Jesse explains. “I started out with a lad­ der, hatchet and pick-up truck.” Now, along with roofing, Jesse has added vinyl sid­ ing to his line of work. “I work with several local contractors on new homes and do tear offs for older homes that need a new roof. I have done some repair work but we just don’t have that many bad storms around here to do too much damage for roof repairs,” Jesse notes. Jesse takes a great deal of pride in his work and will work however many hours and days it takes to get the job finished and done right. “I keep my business somewhat small. That way I can be on the job to see what goes on and make sure the job is completed like it would be for someone in my family.” Perkins Roofing also enjoys giving back to the com­ munity.

It’s time to get out into your yard and gar­ den and enjoy the fresh air and sunshine. I have been reading that there is an increased interest in vegetable gardening now. The taste of home-grown vegetables is wonderful, and it i.s deeply satisfying to grow your own food. Many of you have had a garden for a long time, but for those who are new to it, here are a few pointers. First, pick the right site. You want a site that i.s well- drained, with fertile soil with a decent amount of organic matter. If the or­ ganic matter is low you can add more. The site should receive 6 to 8 hours of sun each day and be close to a water source. Once you have the proper site, you can prepare your soil. For a new site, it’s a good idea to incorporate compost or other organic matter when you are tilling up the soil. You can add a 2-3” layer of compost and till it in 6 to 8 inches deep. In subsequent years, you can just add the compost to the top of the soil, like mulch. Now you are ready to plant your garden. You can still plant a couple of cool-season crop.s like kale and leaf lettuce from trans­ plants. But we are having an early spring, so mostly what you plant now will be warm-season crops such a.s squash, green beans, lima beans, tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant. Be sure the soil is really warm before you plant peppers and egg- CLUESACROSS 1. Germanic mythological god 39. Beats per minute 4. Cash machine 41. Defunct Italian monetary unit 7. Improvement 42.

Expresses emotion Answers On Page B6 plant, as both those crops do poorly with cool soil. Once your seeds and transplants are in the gar­ den, be sure to give them consistent moisture. We may have rainy spring weather, but in case we hit a dry spell, use soaker hos­ es or drip irrigation to wa­ ter your garden. Using drip irrigation or soaker hoses helps keep moisture off the leaves which helps prevent disease. You can also mulch your garden with newspa­ per, straw, or leaves to help conserve moisture. You can use almost any type of or­ ganic matter, but be careful if you use grass clippings. If the grass was treated with herbicide, the herbicide can carry over for quite some time and damage your vege­ table plants. Scout your garden fre­ quently for pest.s and dis­ eases. Keep ahead of them so that problems don’t get out of hand. Hand-picking is a good way to eliminate pest.s. Minimize the use of piesticide.s in your garden, and you will be more like­ ly to have beneficial insects that will help you keep pest.s under control. For the rest of your yard, now is the time to finish cleaning it up. Prune back dead limb.s on trees and shrubs and dead plant ma­ terial on perennials like pe­ onies. Rake up any leaves that fell late in the winter. Any plant material that does not show signs of insects or diseases may be compiosted. Prune spring-flower­ ing shrubs after they have bloomed. Make sure all your gardening equipment and tools, such as lawn mowers and sprayers, are in good shape so that they are ready to go when you need to use them. Many cool-season annual weeds, such a.s chickweed and henbit, are still in lawns and garden beds. These weeds will die once the weather gets warmer toward the end of spring. However, it is best to pull them up and discard them before they go to seed to minimize the amount of these weed.s you will have next winter. I get a lot of calks about annual bluegrass (Poa an­ nua). This is an annual bunchgrass that is usual­ ly most noticeable late in winter and early in spring. Annual bluegras.s actually germinates in September or October. At that stage the grass is really small and not noticeable in fescue lawns. But once the plant.s start blooming in April, they are really obvious, especially if your lawn is a little thin­ ner than it should be. Like henbit and chickweed, an­ nual bluegrass will die in warm weather. But like those plants, if you let it go to seed you are setting your­ self up for more problems the next year. You can spot-spray patch­ es of annual bluegrass with a generic herbicide to kill them before they go to seed. You can also use a pre-emergent in the fall, as you would for crabgrass. But be aware that if you use the pre-emergent, you will not be able to reseed your fescue lawn in the fall. A better solution for con­ trolling annual bluegrass than using pre-emergent is to use cultural controls to encourage a thick and healthy fescue lawn. A robust lawn will shade out seedlings of annual bluegrass and keep it from spreading. To encourage a healthy lawn, don’t mow grass too short. Fescue should never be mowed shorter than 2.5 inches. When you water, irrigate infrequently but deeply. Your grass will develop a better root system and with­ stand drought more easily. Compacted soil and poor drainage will also result in a thin, weedy lawn. You can alleviate soil compaction by aerating. But be careful with your timing - if you aerate after you’ve seeded in the fall, you can lower the ger­ mination rate of your grass seed. Another factor that can cause patchy lawns is shade. One way to get around this is to plant shade-loving plants where you don’t get enough sun to produce a good stand of fescue. Another i.s to use a blend of Kentucky blue­ grass and fescue when you reseed your lawn in the fall. The Kentucky bluegrass is more shade-tolerant than fescue and will fill in the gaps between fescue plants. producing a thicker, healthi­ er lawn. Look for a seed mix that is about 5:1 fescue seed to Kentucky bluegrass seed. You can fertilize warm-season grasses such a.s zoysiagrass and bermu- dagrass in April. Don’t fer­ tilize cool-season grasses again until September. Ideally, you should do a soil test every two to three years to determine the prop­ er amount of fertilizer to apply. If you didn’t get a chance to do a soil test this year, a good rule of thumb is to use 1 pound of nitrogen per 1,00<) square feet for all warm-season grasses except for St. Augustinegrass. Use half the amount of nitrogen if you have St. Augustine­ grass. If you have any question.s about your yard and garden or need help identifying a pest of disease, please call 336-753-6100 or email su- san_hawkins@ncsu .edu. Lions, Civitans help facility with restrictions A member of the Mocks­ ville Lion.s Club recently found a way to serve the community during these try­ ing times of not being able to have a club meetings. Club secretary, Mary Jef­ frey, spoke with Angela Par­ rish, director of activities at Somerset Court in Mocks­ ville, and discovered the facility had an immediate need for food serving trays. As a result of Gov. Roy Cooper’s order, on Monday, April 13 at 5 p.m., group homes would no longer be able to dine in groups in the dining rooms. Food Serving Trays would need be used to serve meals to occupants in their rooms and Somerset Court needed an additional 40 rrays. Jeffrey contacted club president, Patsy Crenshaw, and Linda Bradford of the Davie Civitan Club for as­ sistance in acquiring trays. Both clubs decided to pur­ chase the trays and expedite delivery. Forty new serving trays were purchased and deliv­ ered to Somerset Court on Saturday, April 1 1. “Even with social dis­ tancing and the inconve­ nience of not be able to hold club meetings, a way to help wa.s found,” said club mem­ ber, Terry B. Smith. “ Civic groups like the Mocksville Lions Club and the Davie Civitan Club are proud to help others in need during these difficult times. We are hopeful that soon we will again be able to meet, socialize and continue to serve our communities here in Davie County. Thanks to all who support our clubs enabling us to help others.” County Line Virus, storms put people on edge By Shirley Thorne County Line Correspondent SUDOKU 1 4 8 9 2 3 2 5 7 3 9 4 8 5 3 5 3 6 1 6 2 8 3 9 Fun By The Numbers Like puzzles?

In 1963, he grad­ uated from Cool Spring High School, where he wa.s a class mascot, bus driv­ er, member of the Future Farmers and received the .senior superlative, "Most Dependable." Retired from the U.S. Post Office after more than 30 years, Ren­ ny also worked for Tractor Supply and wa.s a firefighter with the Cool Springs VFD. In 2001 he married the for­ mer Carol Ann Wooten of County Line Road. The couple made their home on White Oak Road in Iredell. He joined her in worship at Clarksbury United Method­ ist Church, where he wa.s a faithful member a.s long as his health permitted. Due to the coronavirus restrictions, a memorial service will be held at a later date.

Cr*Pl /"\/y1 \AZJk 1^1 STl d thCBy Betty Etchison West Cana/Pino Correspondent This week known as Holy Week to Christians has been different from that of years past. At first, it seemed strange to find out that ser­ vices would not be held in the church buildings, but people now seem to be re­ alizing that they do not have to go into a church building to worship. Easter is the high point of the Christian year because it is on that day that Chris­ tians celebrate the fact that Jesus arose from the grave. It seems that in this time of uncertainty the words of the song, “Because He Lives” are most appropriate. That is particularly true of the words of the chorus of that song, which are "Because He lives, I can face tomor­ row. Because He lives, all fear is gone: Because I know He holds the future, and life is worth the living, just because He lives. ” Edwin Boger, who ha.s lived on Cana Road just south of Cana all of his life, has died. Edwin was in the hospital for several days, but he wanted to return to his home. He was under the care of Hospice at the home of his daughter. Edwin graduated from Mocksville High School in the class of 1949. Since that time he has lived on the Boger farm on Cana Road, where he established a dairy. Edwin evidently SEAFORD STUMP REMOVAL Locally Owned & Operated Mocksville, NC 336-90»4)610 enjoyed farming because he recently said, “We have lived the American Dream.” What better testimony for a happy life. Edwin helped maintain the Cana School/ Communi­ ty Building Property while it was owned by the Cana Homemakers. The people of Cana want his family to know that they greatly ap­ preciate all he did for the community. As I thought of the old Cana School, I realized that there are few peo­ ple left who attended that one-teacher school. Edwin Boger recently told me that he went to school there for two years before he was transferred to Holman’s Cros.s Road School. As I tried to think of others who were still living who went to that school, I thought of Frances Col­ lette (Dunn). I found her telephone number and called her. She lives in Win­ ston-Salem and did indeed remember going to Cana School for three years be­ fore her family moved to Mocksville. She said that she wanted to go to school so badly that she kept run­ ning away from home and ending up in the classroom at Cana School, which in fact wa.s exactly where she wanted to be. The teacher, “Miss” Lola Etchison, final­ ly told her just to come on to school — the rules con­ cerned age requirements, etc. weren’t so stringent back then. Frances and 1 enjoyed reminiscing about Cana School and the people who went to school there. Some of the people who are still living other than those mentioned, are; Edwin Boger’s older sisters, Vada Grey and Libby; Glenna Collette Lagle, who lives in a retirement home in Char­ lotte; Louise Woodward, who is at Somerset Assisted Living in Mocksville; Lou­ ise’s brother, George Wood­ ward, who is at Trinity Elms in Clemmons; Hazel Boger Daywalt, who is at Bermuda Commons Nursing Home at Hillsdale; and Mary Frances Jordan, who is at Somerset Assisted Living. If there are others that should be includ­ ed, please let me know. As I was working on this list, I made a number of telephone calks to gather the information. One person I called was George Boger. George did not go to Cana School, but other members of his family did. George said that his sis­ ter, Ruth, said that if she ever amounted to anything, she would give her teacher. Miss” Lola Etchison, cred­ it for it. That is pretty high praise for a teacher. Cana School was primitive with no electricity, no restroom.s only outhouses, and water served from a bucket that was carried from the house next door. The last year that school was taught there, there were 16 students in grades one through six all in one room with one teacher. In spite of the environment at Cana School, many peo­ ple who attended that school felt that they got a good ed­ ucation. I attended Cana School for three years before the school was closed and the students were transferred to William R. Davie School, which opened in the fall of 1941. If you can’t find anything to do while you are observ­ ing the stay at home require­ ment, reminisce or reach out to someone you have not heard from in years. That will add some spice to your life and to the life of the person or persons that you contact.

Board members voted to award six community grants from the competitive grant cycle. Three multiple year commitments were approved for payment and three current request.s were also approved. Multiple year grants in­ clude; • $20,000 to Ignite Da­ vie; • $16,666 to Dragonfly House Children's Advocacy Center; and • $40,(X)0 to Cognition of Davie. The three additional community grants went to organization.s on the front lines of COVID-19 re­ sponse; • $10,000 to Just Hope; • $7,500 to A Storehouse for Jesus; and • $10,(XX) to Family Promise of Davie. “Sadly, the foundation had to deny many of the cmmunity grant requests we received this year,” said Jane Simpson, president. “We felt it was important to shift our grant dollars to the immediate needs we now have in our community. We will take the opportunity to review our grant focus go­ ing forward a.s we navigate the next few weeks and months. The ability to make this emergency response highlights the importance of community funds to Davie County. Without the abili­ ty to change the use of the grant award.s based upon the current needs, we would not have been able to make these important grants.” Sheffield-Calahaln Local residents still worshipping while making sacrifices By Brenda Bailey Correspondent Hope everyone Farmington reunion rescheduled had Deals & Bargains BLUE NUWAVE PRO PLUS OVEN Extender ring. 2 racks, cookbook.

Our hearts connect and we blow kisses or make a heart shape with our fingers. I’m always assuring them that this pan­ demic will end and life will be normal again. “Knowing that for some families their loss of loved ones, loss of jobs and life changes are unbelievable far from normal burdens,” she said. “Generations to come will hear stories of this historic life altering era.

A Davie County small business owner offered us an exceptional deal on a rent-to- own property that is in a visi­ ble part of Mocksville at 1469 N. Main St.,” said HSDC Ex­ ecutive Director Annie Vernier. "We would have been crazy to turn down this opportunity.” HSDC occupies a 20 x 20 conference room space at 291 Eaton Road in Mocksville with Davie County Animal Services (DCAS). In 2017, HSDC and DCAS decided to join to improve the euthanasia rate in Davie Coun- ty- "DC.AS was responsible for the intake of stray or surren­ dered animals, including basic vetting. HSDC then served as the adoption arm including marketing the animals, finding foster homes, putting on adoj?- tion events, and covering med­ ical costs that went above and beyond basic vetting. "In 2019, HSDC aided DCAS in $86,684 of addi­ tional medical expenses for animals in their care,” Vernier said. “Davie County’s eutha­ nasia rate was as high as 85% planning summer move Vernier walks through a large room that will house dog kennels. in 2009, we knew the animals deserved better. Our overall save rate for 2019 was 93%. Our community came together. It was humbling. It has inspired us to want to do more.” And more is what HSDC is hoping for the animals of Da­ vie County. "Our plan to move wasn't to get away from helping DCAS. We know the amount of effort it takes to market these ani­ mals, find foster homes or oth­ er rescue organizations when needed, and ensuring animals find forever homes that best fit the family. We have offered DCAS to still have our intake be all DC.3S animals so that we could continue the momen­ tum of success in our county. "We've worked so hard to build a foster network and oth­ er breed specific rescues that we would hate to see the eu­ thanasia rate go back up when things were working so well. We anticipate by July 1, we will be fully up and running in our new space." HSDC will still offer other community services. “We have offered low cost spay and neuter clinics to all area pet owners. Unfortunate­ ly, due to COVID-19 they have been closed but we hope they re-open in the near future so we can educate our community about the big picture of rescu­ ing animals by preventing un­ wanted litters," said Vernier. "We will be providing more information on how we can be of help as vets' offices are able to do more surgeries in the fu­ ture.” Vernier is looking forward to Please See Humane - Page 4 Mebane offering grants to first-year teachers By Jeanna Baxter White Mebane Foundation Setting up a classroom is expensive, ask any veteran teacher who has spent years scouring thrift shops and yard sales looking for books, edu­ cational toys, craft items, and decorations to turn an empty classroom into a warm and in­ viting environment that fosters learning. Young teachers straight out of colleae who are entering their first classroom have to purchase their own supplies, everything from books to learning stations to visual aids for the walls - before receiving their first paycheck. Although eager to make a difference in the lives of their students, their plans may be limited by what they can afford. To help reduce that finan­ cial burden, the Mebane Foun­ dation is offering $50,(XX) in classroom grants for the 2020- 202l^school year. North Car­ olina’s first-year teachers who will be teaching kindergar­ ten-third grade are invited to apply for one of 35 one-time grants of up to $ 1,500 to furnish their classrooms with reading/ literacy support materials or to receive literacy-related profes­ sional development. ,nKis,- “We’ve made a c^rale of classroom grants to^^chers over the years, but ’fl most situations, these gran’" were made in conjunction w^j larg­ er scho^-system grant?.” said Larry Colboume, president of the Mebane Foundation. “Over the years I’ve learned that these smaller grants can be invaluable to potential grantees who may not have the capacity to prepare a full-blown grant request. These smaller grants many times produce some of the strongest results because they allow grantees the free­ dom to experiment and not to be inhibited by the rules and regulations encumbering larger grants. "We hope these grants will give enthusiastic young educa­ tors the opjTortunity to practice innovative approaches to liter­ acy they may have learned in school or to explore their own ideas without struggling to pay for the supplies. Who knows what exciting new techniques may be bom.” The application can be found on the homepage of the Me­ bane Foundation’s website, wwwjnebanefoundation .com.

A new normal? I’ve been dealing with that all of my life. And let me tell you, not all “new normals’’ are bad. As a child, I reveled in exploring the woods, playing in the branch, and shooting a basketball for hours on end on a goal attached to an old road sign that was attached to the smokehouse. Then they said I had to go to school every day. A new normal. At school, we had to sit quietly at a desk pretty much all day. A brief break for exercise, a brief break for lunch. Then back to the desk. A new normal. My older brother, my ball playing partner all of my life, decided he wanted to go to college. I was resigned to hit­ ting rocks with my baseball bat instead of pitches he would throw. I pretended someone was guarding me while shoot­ ing basketball. A new normal. Along about the middle school grades, I started noticing the world around me a bit more. Those woods around the house weren’t as enticing as before. Then I got my driver’s license and a car, and because of my age, I was one of the first in my class to get their own set of wheels. A new normal. High school became a Robert Earl Keen song. The road does go on forever, and that old Buick I had got more miles on it in a year than vehicles I drive now get in three or four years. Then the gas crisis of the mid-70s hit, and I, like most others, was left at home. No cable TV or internet. A new normal. Then came college, and with it, more responsibility. It was up to me to study for tests, there was no one on my case telling me to do it. It was up to me to decide when to eat, when to exercise, when to party, when to study, when to work. A new normal. After graduation, there was this thing called a job. You needed the Job to pay for a roof over your head, food for the table, a vehicle to drive. If you didn’t go to work, you didn’t get any of the above. A new normal. Those jobs changed from time to time. New people. New places. New duties. New responsibilities. A new normal. I used to tell jokes at the office. People would ask for them and I would tell one or two. Then those same people complained. I can no longer tell jokes at the office. A new normal. Then I got married. No more prowling the bars and mall.s looking for love. No more wondering where I would have supper that night. No more wondering about whether I was truly loved or not. A new normal. So you see, our lives are filled with new normals; it’s just that nowadays, they seem to be happening more often. No going out to eat. No going for a haircut. No stopping for a drink on the way home from work. No festivals or church breakfasts. We have yet to be told what our new normals will be, but you can bet they will include wearing masks when in public (Don’t we have laws on the books that prevent the covering of one’s face in public?) and social distancing, that new phrase meaning we stay six feet apart from one another. People are already complaining, and that’s understand­ able. We’re walking on new water here. Even most doctors and experts will say, when pressed, that they’re only guess­ ing (Educated guesses, but guesses still the same) when they say how well the measures being taken now, and in the near future, will work. They know how a virus spreads, so the restrictions now are in preventing that spread. That much makes sense. Opening the country to the way things were before the virus will be risky, whether next week or next month. We just don’t know. And the people making those decisions, from the presi­ dent down to the governor, well, they’re politicians. We need leaders, not politicians, and those are few and far be­ tween these days. A new normal. - Mike Barnhardt In The Mail Choosing health over freedom? To the editor: Fellow Americans and patriots: I have wondered of late which is the greatest threat we face as a Country? Is it the coronavirus or threat to our liberty? How long did it take President Roosevelt to send our men and boys, husbands, brothers and friends into battle against the evil forces of a dictator, murderer, an enemy of the neighboring countries around Germany, no less the Jews? Roosevelt knew in advance that several thousand men and boys would die on June 6 at Omaha Beach during the Normandy Invasion. Please take time to look up and read Roosevelt's prayer that he shared with the nation June 6,1944. How long did it take President Truman to OK the drop­ ping of the "A Bomb" on the arch enemy of America, Ja­ pan? Both Roosevelt and Truman knew in advance that several thousand men and boys would die on Iwo Jima, Tarawa, Guadalcanal, and the beaches of Normandy. Both Presidents believed that the cost of freedom and the refusal of allowing a German swastika or a Japanese flag to fly over our beloved country and White House would be at the cost of American men, women, boys and dollars. Nathan Hale's words must be remembered and recited; "Give me liberty or give me death!" Have we forgotten what our Constitution and the Bill of Rights state about our freedoms? Our government has no authority to tell us or force us when and where we can worship. Nor refuse us to visit our families or travel the interstates. I hope and pray, while I can, that day will never come when I surrender my rights "endowed by my Creator" or health over freedom. New Hampshire has it right, "Live Free or Die." Isaac Watts penned it well for us as Christians no less patriots; "Must I be carried to the skies. On flowery bed.s of ease. While others fought to win the prize and sailed thru bloody seas?" Above all else, our authority comes from the inspired Holy Writ of God. Act.s 5:29; "We ought to obey God rather than men." Rev. Timothy M.

Where are they now? Russel Hilton returns to help shape young lives “Peace, Be Still” By Julie Terry Cartner By the creek at my favorite spot where rippling water flows over mossy rocks, I often sit on the leaf-covered bank and write in my journal. Sheltered by towering trees, some of which have probably stood there for several gen­ erations, I lean against the smooth bark of a beech tree and soak in the tranquility of nature. Peace. Be still. The words echo through my brain. Nearby, my two dogs, Linus and Lucy, lie patiently, waiting for me to finish my prose. They are patient; they’ve already had a mile or so of walking and at least one or two dips in the creek, and they are content to find a ray of sunshine filtering through the trees to relax and enjoy. Overhead, birds converse with each other, and chattering squirrels scurry across varied branches. Below me, on the sandy beach I see tracks, deer, raccoon and her­ on, all too shy to appear while my dogs and I are around. In the tense environment of the coronavirus, it is won­ derful to have a place where I can go and just be still, to be one with nature. I feel sorry for people who live in places where they don’t have anywhere they can get away, and wonder, once again, how anyone could choose a city over the rustic beauty of Davie County or any small, rural area. Like everyone around me, I feel the stress of the unknown, the fear of the rampant spread of the virus, the uncertain­ ty of not knowing how long our lives are going to be so impacted, and unutterable sorrow for those who have lost loved ones from this epidemic. But as I sit, I also think of the unprecedented byproducts of this time of social distancing and sheltering in place. Environmentalists and other scientists tell of the major re­ duction in air pollution with fewer cars on the road and the massive reductions of air travel. Venice’s water is clear for the first time in longer than most people alive can remem­ ber. The reduction in energy usage and the reduction in dis­ posable plastic consumption, again, due to people staying home, is unparalleled, and even the earth itself is calming down. Seismic noise is lower than scientists have recorded in years. People are staying home; families are re-connecting; children have time to play. We have a much greater respect for nurses, teachers, essential store employees and delivery people. Of course, it’s not all good, but there is good inside of the horror of Covid-19. So as I sit beside my creek and ponder the positive facts of our current way of life, I think of several scriptures, some of my favorites, actually, that have a new and deepier meaning for me right now. Psalm 46:10 says, "Be still and know that I am God.” Mark 4:39 tells us of Jesus’ words to the disciples, “Peace be still” And finally in one of my favorite hymns, “Hymn of Promise,”' the composer and lyricist Natalie Sleeth reminds us, “There’s a song in every silence, seeking word and melody; There’s a dawn in every darkness, bringing hope to you and me.” There is much we have no control over, but as the weeks march onward in this pandemic, let’s take control over what we can. Let’s make the choice to appreciate the beau­ ty around us. Let’s take the time to be still. Let’s seek our own personal peace. Let’s hold on to hope and make the most of each day we are given. “A Child’s World” By Gaye Hoots Our present world is one in which adults are having a difficult time getting their bearings. Faith is our .anchor, but it is hard to adjust to all the changes and to make sense of them. Imagine what it is like for a three-year-old who hears the concern in adult voices. Last week one of my twin granddaughters saw the presi­ dent speaking on TV. “Guys be quiet. This is important. The whole earth has shut down.” There was excitement and puzzlement in her voice a.s she named the places she and her sister could no longer go, restaurants, grocery stores, preschool, dancing lesxfcins, swim lessons, or church. “It’s because ot them by saying th^ if their mom got si| still getting takeouf we are good.” That cheered the girls that in a few w virus,” they told me. I reassured > one in our family is sick and that I would take care of them, “We are izza and cupcake.s from Maddie’s, so up and reassured them. I told the :eks, they would-be able to go places again and see their friends. They stopped talking about it, so I think they are going to be alright now when they hear adults talking about it. A few night.s ago, they faced a different challenge. While they were playing in the yard at my sister’s, a strong wind whipped, up blowing a cloud of pollen. Everly shrieked that a tornado was coming and ran to my sister, who got her inside the house safely. “1 was scared to death. 1 thought I was going to die. Nanny Faye saved my life!” That was how she exjjerienced the windstorm. Her twin wanted help finding her kite so she could fly it while she had a strong wind. They reacted differently, but both know family i.s nearby to ensure their safety. The night before Easter the twin.s told me of an animal making strange noises that awakened them. He was in their front yard. “It was a coyote.” Before I could tell them how to handle this crisis, they said, “If he comes back to our yard, we will shoot him.” Their mom told them she would keep them safe. “We will shoot him and take him up to Papa Nick’s so he can see him.” Today they became aware of another possible danger. A large tree uprooted by last night’.s storm lay in their yard. They watched a.s Papa Nick took his chainsaw to the tree. “That is cool,” they said as they watched him cut limbs off the tree and load them to haul away. They learn how to deal with adverse situations by watching the adults around them. If we have a plan, they feel safe. When it is safe to travel, they want to go to the beach, and we plan to take them. “I want to live at the beach,” Everly added. Aubrey had a better plan, “1 want to live at the beach with Miss ‘Rene.’” She was referring to Mrs. Lorene Markland, whose hus­ band Charles is related to them. She has invited them to their home here on several occasions, and that is the ulti­ mate in entertainment to them. We are still having fun and looking forward to many things we took for granted before. “Comfort” By Marie Craig Sometimes, I have difficulty deciding on a subject for this article. Once chosen, I can write pretty fast, but the topic evade.s me sometimes. The word “comfort” was repeating itself in my mind this morning when I awoke. Perhaps it’s one of the most important words ever. As we think back to our childhood, we can remember a family member helping us over a stumped toe, a case ofthe chick- enpox, or a disappointment at school. Bad things happen to everybody, but with some sincere words and affection, they can be lessened. As we grew older, we learned that we could cope with trouble by remembering the comforting words we were given earlier in our lives. Then we became the ones who gave comfort to others. It’s a progression of learning and sharing. But what about the children who never received this helpful example of comfort and patience? Our life now is full of hurry and short tempers. That’s not what will get us through this time of isolation, following directions, and apprehension. I watched a video online that my financial company sent me. Their closing remarks were, “We’re handling this rough time by being calm, deliberate, and methodical.” Their word.s were well-chosen and gave me comfort. I decided these were three very helpful words that can be applied to matters other than investments.

Social Distancing has had the op­ posite effect on Christians, a.s 1 watch the world come to grip.s with a new reality. 1 see those who never saw them­ selves as leaders step up to the task without reserve. I see a multitude rising up, putting them in harm's way to care for others, and sometimes with the sacrifice of their own lives. Blessing after blessing, some large, some so small they might have seemed insignificant several months ago, but now are received with so much gratitude and virtual hugs. A.s a world, we are learning that all the extra trappings of life; social esteem, titles, privilege, and fame, mean noth­ ing in the light of an invisible enemy. If one believes, or at least hopes there is a Heaven, then one must also believe that Hell exists, and therein lie.s the unseen enemy. It has been said by more than one that we, a.s a nation, will come out of this time of los.s and sorrow forever changed. Our world will never be the same. My view is that a.s Christians, we are commanded to “Love One Another”, (a.s Christ ha.s loved us). That will never change. The importance of that Commandment has been magnified during this time of uncertainty, and as 1 heard the Gospiel stream over the unseen World Wide Web, 1 realize our charge to “Go ye therefore, and teach all na­ tions” is being accomplished, just a.s a world is brought to its knees by an unseen force, 1 firmly believe that day is coming when empty pulpits and vacant church pews will be all the unsaved will find. They will be just as empty as the Tomb on Resurrection Morning. It will not matter if you attended a mega church, or a small country church. All those of faith, who are saved by the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross of Calvary, will be gone. The importance of having had the freedom to sit in one of those pews for many years weighs heavily on me. Social distancing ha,s come with a price, but I also see it as an opportunity, allowing us time to reflect on what is truly im­ portant, or may be missing in our lives. How we proceed in the new reality that awaits after COVID-19 is an unknown. It is a decision to be made by each one of us, alone.

His passion for sports was solidified during his time wrestling at Davie County High School. He believes the sport teaches dedication, perseverance, hard work, and sacrifice. His belief that wrestling gives you all the tooLs needed to be successful in life, and the profound impact of Coach Buddy Lowery from Davie High, drove Russel to coach and teach. Following his graduation from Davie High, Russel con­ tinued pursuing his passion for wrestling at UNC Pem­ broke, where he wrestled for two years and earned a bach­ elor’s degree in physical education. He then returned to live and work in Davie County. For the past eight year.s, Russel has been working for Davie County Schools. Currently, he is the physical educa­ tion teacher at Cooleemee Elementary, He i.s also the head coach for three sports at South Davie Middle School - boys soccer, wrestling, and girls soccer. Russel’s favorite memory from school i.s winning the team wrestling state championship in 2006. His advice to high school student.s would be to work hard and find your true passion in life.

It’s more than a park.” As Paul Moore, direc­ tor of Davie County Parks & Recreation, told those assembled at town hall in his presentation on the centerpiece of the county’s recreation plan, “There’s something for everybody to do there.” On a night that was light on business agenda items, Moore was invited to give an overview and update on the project in which county residents approved $5 mil­ lion in a 2014 bond referen­ dum for a park they helped shape. Additional grants of more than $400,000 were awarded in 2019 to supple­ ment Phase I construction. “At the ribbon cutting, eight of the 10 Phase I el­ ements that you — the resi­ dents in the county—wanted to see are being included,” Moore said of the grand opening at the new park (Originally set for May 9) at the former site of Davie High School. “Why is this so important?

Then there’s the 7,350-square-foot Vortex splash pad, which is the largest one of its kind in the state. Other highlights in­ clude: • an amphitheater that Moore called “one of a kind” that is fully func­ tional and could host the county’s summer concerts series; • an inclusive play­ ground conducive for all levels and abilities with multi-sensory interactive systems; • a new interior look for the main gym, retaining bleachers on one side, with volleyball, basketball and three pickleball courts (two additional pickleball courts will be located in the auxil- LAMBERT II O M •|(KM \ I IOS Si;n\ I Davie County Family owned and operated by Carl & Kim Lambert Serving Davie County and Surrounding Communities for over 30 years Prearranged Funerals and Preplanning options available Cremation Services In your time of need, it is more important than ever to be with trusted funeral professionals who are also your friends and neighbors.

If wearing a face covem- ing, do not touch it, adjust it, or remove it until you have washed your hands. Also, wash your hands after re­ moving it. Do not touch your face if wearing gloves.

There will be shelters, dog parks, walkways and trails, horseshoe pits, boc- ce ball courts, a civic green area and a multi-use area. Moore said that Da­ vie was fortunate to have passed a recreation bond based on property tax. “9.9 out of lO recreation bonds are done on sales or some type of hospitality/ utility tax, never on proper­ ty tax,” he said. “Every sin­ gle homeowner in the coun­ ty ha.s paid for this park.” In addition to the new park. Moore addressed the advancing greenway network in the county and Bermuda Run, and the im­ portance of aligning both of the plans. “Creating a plan like this is all about mapping con­ nections,” he said. “You’re getting started with that in Bermuda Run with your Phase I plan, so we want to make sure our plan aligns with what plans you have — that there’s sort of a county­ wide brand.” Town Manager Lee Rol­ lins said he had attended a regional meeting that tied in with this discussion. "There’s a Yadkin Valley Regional Bike Plan that i.s under draft with NCDOT and the Piedmont Triad Re­ gional Council that includes six counties of which Davie is one,” Rollin.s said. “I wanted to let you know that Bermuda Run, Clemmons, Lewisville and Mocksville are an important part of that plan, and it all aligns with what Mr. Moore put out.” The council: • Approved a proposed text amendment to clarify that the underlying zoning district shall dictate uses rather than an overlay dis­ trict. • Appointed alternate member Tom Brady to fill the unexpired term of Ken Peacock on the plan­ ning board after Peacock was appointed to the rown council; and then appointed Erin Hege to fill Brady’s unexpired term as an alter­ nate member of the plan­ ning board. • Heard from Cros.s about talking with NC­ DOT engineer Pat Ivey and letiming the 1-40 widening project through Bermuda Run is about 56 percent complete and projected for completion in January 2021. Cross said the town is looking into any short- temi solutions to help with the traffic at US 158/NC 801, including striping the road, and that the eventu­ al lengthening of the 1-40 eastbound on-ramp at NC 801 and completion of the widening project will take some traffic off of US 158.

By Brian Pitts Davie Enterprise Record Brandon Eankford should be about 4t) game.s into his senior sea­ son. so he should be right around the UNC Asheville career record for home runs. When the COVID- 19 pandem­ ic ended all sport-s seasons - the Bulldogs’ final game was March 11, just 1 6 games into the season - Lankford stood at 35 homers, just seven from Brian Shehan’s school record. Since the NCAA granted all spring athletes another year of eligibility, Lankford will get a redo on his senior year - if he doesn’t get drafted or sign as a free agent this summer and begin a profes­ sional career. The 6-2. 215-pound slugger from Mocksville ha.s had a tre­ mendous career in Asheville, a middle-of-the-order hitter, the third baseman and an indispens­ able rock since Day One in 2017. As a freshman, he did some­ thing unthinkable - getting a hit in the first 1 2 games of his collegiate career. "It was surreal,” Lankford, a 2016 Davie High graduate, said. "I remember going back to my dorm room and talking about it with my riximmate Chris. I remember joking around about it. I was like; ’Man, this is kind of easy.’ Right after that, I went in a slump for probably lO games. It was like the baseball god.s were telling me something.” In that 2017 season, he was second on the team with a .268 average, tied for first with 55 hit.s and led with 25 extra-base hits. In the Big South Conference, he tied for fourth in doubles (15) and homers (IO) and tied for sixth in RBIs (46). A nerveless Lankford prtxluced three hits at No. 3-ranked .North Carolina. ■‘That wa.s really cool,” he said. “Those games are unreal. You get amped up going to place.s like N.C. State,Carolina, Florida State,Ten­ nessee. Those Carolina games are always fun. It wa.s a good crowd there and it’s a nice play to play.” In the 2017 Big South Confer­ ence Tournament in Lexington, S.C., the sixth-seeded Bulldogs made a stirring push. In an elim­ ination game against No. 2 Lib­ erty, Lankford lifted UNC-A to a breathless win with a go-ahead home run in the top ofthe ninth. Liberty’s Shane Quarterley, who had allowed one homer in 45,1 innings coming in, carried a 1-0 lead into the ninth. There was a single, but there were two out.s when Lankford stepped up. Quarterley offered a 1-2 pitch ’Bank OZK ranks 1st among the largest banks in the nation with the strongest Tier 1 Leverage Capital ratio at December 31. 2019 according to S&P Global Market Intelligence data. 11 Month CD or IRA CD Special 24 Month CD or IRA CD Special Open an account today at ozk.com or in one of our branches.** <> BankOZK •Annual Percentage Yield (APY) effective as ofthe publication date. $1,000 minimum deposit to open and is required to earn stated APY.

MEMBER FDIC The se 35 career homers. and Lankford dropped the bar­ rel, crushing a two-run hoiner to left, the ball traveling over 400 feet. The Bulldogs won 2-1 for their first conference tournament triumph in nine years. The blast also gave them their 24th win, the most in five years. Liberty wa.s sent home at 32-24, “That wa,s a huge upset,” Lank­ ford said. ‘‘That was the craziest thing that’s ever happened for me. That was a dream right there, seeing the ball come off the bat.” One day later, UNC-A beat pitcher Isaac Campbell (another former War Eagle) and Gard­ ner-Webb, 6-3, thank.s to a five-run seventh. Lankford had two hit.s and two runs a.s the Bulldogs won two tourney games for the first time in 10 year.s. "We lost the next game to Rad­ ford,” he said. ”We were done on pitching.” Lankford was named a Fresh­ man All-American by Collegiate Baseball News, the first such honor for the Bulldogs in 13 years. He earned Big South Conference All-Toumament honors, the first Bulldog to earn that in 1 1 years. As a sophomore, Lankford put up the team’s No. 2 average (.266), led the team in homers (eight), RBIs (26) and slugging percentage (.469), and was second in doubles ( 12), Lankford went on a legendary home-run tear as a junior. He slugged 15 to rank second in the conference. He was among the top 40 in the country when the regular season ended. The homers were the most by a Bulldog in 15 years and it's good for fourth on the single-season list, four behind the record. For the season, he hit .287 with 54 hits and 35 RBIs, in­ cluding a three-hit, six-RBI perfor­ mance against Georgia Southern. He also led the team in total bases (109), runs (44) and slugging per­ centage (.580). He was named Big South First Team All-Conference. "That was a lot of hard work with my hitting coach, just grind­ ing every day and getting the little details down pat,” Lankford said of the home-run binge. ”It was trusting my homework, having muscle memory and trying to be aggressive. It was a fun season.” From the first game of 2020, it was quite obvious that opposing pitchers were working Lankford carefully. Through 13 starts, he had two homers, not the pace he enjoyed the year before. But he resisted the temptation to chase out of the zone, taking a team- high nine walks, along with two hit by pitches. He was second in average (.283, 13 for 46), second in homers, tied for second in doubles (four), tied for second in RBIs (nine) and tied for third in runs (seven). “I could tell the first weekend at Samford I was already getting pitched backwards,” he said. ”1 wa,s preparing for that coming into the season. I was getting pitched around a good bit throughout the year. I wa.s trying to be aggressive with anything in the zone and lay­ ing off if it wasn't there.” Oh, and one thing more; Lank­ ford had one error for the season, resulting in a .963 fielding per­ centage. The one miscue came on a bunt in which Lankford charged and threw offbalance to first. "I definitely worked really hard in the offseason to get really good at third and have more people be­ lieve that I could be a good third baseman in the long term,” he said. The coronaviru.s shut every­ thing down after UNC-A’s game on March 1 1 . It wa.s 5-1 1 but had won three of four. Lankford’s career-homer total (35) represent.s the most by a Bulldog in (gulp) 30 years. Shehan cranked 42 from 1987-90. Also on the career list, he's tied for third with 26 hit by pitches. ”It happened really fast after our game at Georgia State,” he said of the shutdown. "When we got on the bus, we heard the NB.A cancelled their season. It was really weird. We couldn’t really proces.s what was happening. Everyone had questions and no one could really answer them. No one could have ever guessed that would happen.” According to feedback from scouts, Lankford wa.s looking to get picked between the lOth and 20th rounds. Since 2012, the Major League Baseball Draft has consisted of 40 rounds. But like everything else, MLB is be­ ing hit hard by the fallout from COVID-19. Therefore, there will be a cut in the number of rounds. This summer’s draft will have a maximum of lO rounds and a minium of five; the exact number is yet to be determined. That mean.s Lankford’s 2020- 21 prospects are up in the air. He could be playing professionally; he could be in Asheville for another senior year. "Most of the seniors are com­ ing back and we’re going to live together,” he said. “So it will be a little last hurrah. But I’m hop­ ing that the draft works out. I’m hoping if I don’t get drafted, I can get an opportunity a.s a free agent. It could go one of two ways. I’m hoping a team will give me a shot. It’ll work out either way, whatever i.s meant to happen.” preparing for area baseball in summer North Carolina cancelled the 2020 American Legion baseball season on April 1 3. Two day.s later. Legion pro- gram.s from Area III were forming a new league called NC3 American League Baseball. Now they’re just waiting on stay-at-home orders to be lifted. "We had our Zoom meeting with all the Legion coaches,” Mocksville coach Charles Kurfees said on April 15. “Since the Amer­ ican Legion cancelled the 2020 season, we are forming a new league. The same Area III teams with basically the same rules. We will start when restriction.s are lifted - hopefully by June 1. “The NC3 .American League is unaffiliated with American Legion baseball. You can stay informed with league updates by following the league’s Twitter account. ® NC3_hasehall, and NC3American League Baseball on Facebook." Mocksville i.s planning to field three squad.s - a senior team and two junior teams. The potential start dates are as follows: June 1 (decision by May 15), June 15 (decision by June 1 ) and July 1 (decision by June 15). Direct questions to Kurfees at Charleskay@yadtel .net. March 15, 2001 Softball wins showdown with North Davidson Editor's note: At a time when sports are shut down by the COVID-19 pandemic. we take a look at some memorable mo­ ments in Davie County sports history. By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record Davie’.s softball team beat it.s biggest rival, amplified it.s state-championship credentials and continued to back up predic­ tions of a glorious season a.s the rookie coach (Dave Markland) prevailed over the legend (North Davidson's Mike Lambros) in a showdown of heavyweight.s Friday at Rich Park. Markland, though, tempered the celebration after Davie beat the Black Knights for the fifth time in six games. 2- 1, and im­ proved to 4-0 on the season. “I'll be honest. I didn't think we played particularly well,” he said. ”I was really disappointed with our lack of emotion and lack of intensity that I expect­ ed to see in that type of game, because all I've heard is; "Wait until North Davidson.'” Davie created mixed emotions by hitting the cruise-control button after grabbing a 2-0 lead, committing four errors down the stretch and escaping with two hits. That doesn’t cut it for a team loaded with seniors. "We played hard up until we got the lead, and then defensive­ ly we just relaxed like we had it made,” Markland said. '•We made four errors on routine balls. It’s not the fact that we made errors, but it seemed to be a lack of concentration that forced the errors. “North kept hustling all the way, and that’s something we’ll work on. We got outplayed and were lucky to win the way we Please See 2001, I^jjge B2 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 23, 2020 - B3B2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 23, 2020 Senior Profile Catching up with ...

Continued From Page BI played the last three in­ nings. Instead of maybe a 3-0 game, we were fighting to hold the lead.” It’s a good thing pitcher Shannon Handy main­ tained her mastery of North. Tossing her second complete-game one-hitter of the young season, the senior struck out eight, walked none and carried a no-hitter into the top of the sixth inning, when North sliced the lead in half with an unearned run. In the last three meet­ ings between the old rivals. Handy has held the Knights to eight hits and two runs (one earned) in 21 innings. This year, she’s 3-0 with a scary 0.36 ERA through 19 innings. “They got one clean hit, and that ball was only a clean hit because they had a play on,” Markland said of the hit-and-run. “They moved our shortstop out of the hole (to cover second on a steal), or otherwise she pitches a no-hitter.” Markland sensed that Handy’s customary domi­ nance lulled her teammates to sleep. “They are so used to Shannon getting people out, it’s like the game’s over when we score our first run,” he said. “The pitcher’s job is not to strike everybody out. We’ve got to be very careful that we don’t fall into a comfort zone of thinking we’re going to automatically win as soon as we score the first run.” Sophomore Delivers Davie’s No. 8 batter. Amber Carter (4) and Shannon Handy high-five. Lawncare & Landscaping (JSoae. 704-437- 1552 sophomore Dawn Single- ton, delivered the game’s biggest hit, a two-out single over the second baseman for a 1 -O lead in the second. Stacey Handy had Davie’s other hit. “Obviously it was a big hit to get our first run,” Markland said. “Dawn’s been putting the bat on the ball, and she’s a strong girl.” A spunky senior. Amber Carter, set up both runs. Her second-inning bunt moved Shannon Handy into scoring position, and her fourth-inning bunt led to a defensive breakdown that allowed Handy to race all the way from first to home for the 2-0 lead. “Amber has been playing well all the way around,” Markland said. “She plays hard the whole time and brings energy. She’s been hitting the ball when she’s not bunting, they just haven’t been in the holes. And she’s an excellent bunter.” Notes; Lambros entered his 21 St year with a gaudy 423-67 record. ... The flip side to an uneasy win; “It’s always a good sign when you win and don’t play well,” Markland said. ... Ashlie Sanders and Layne Grout are hitting .384 and .333, respectively, but Davie’s sputtering at .221 as a team. Davie 8, Mooresville 0 Earlier in the week, Sanders hurled three shut­ out innings despite control problems to earn a save in her first mound appear­ ance. “She got in a little jam and was pressing too much,” the coach said. “Then she really fought back. 1 was very pleased with the way she regained her composure. They weren’t hitting her.” Sanders and Grout rapped two hits each. Bran­ di Comatzer hit a ringing triple. Davie also got hits from Stacy Queen and the Handy sisters. “It was one of the sharpest balls I’ve seen this year for us,” he said of Comatzer’s blast. “We just put up a new temporary fence (at 215 feet). Had it not been there, it would have been a home run.” & B Tax Preparation Service 36 Robinhood Qrde, Winston-Salem.

Grant Clark. Wood’s Grandfather Was His Teacher “Repairing grandfather clocks was one of my grandfa­ ther’s many side jobs for 20 years plus, remembered <3rant. “One day he asked me if I would like to do this with him. So from around my senior year in high school and all through my college years, I was his apprentice.” Grant has now been on his own for about six years. Grandfather Clocks Passed Down Generations He makes house calls for repairs and also moves clocks for folks who may be relocating. His shop hours are by appointment only. Grant mentioned that most of the grandfather clocks he repairs are family heirlooms that have been passed down from generation to generation. “One of the oldest grandfather clocks I have worked on was dated back to the 185O’s to 186O’s,” Grant said. “I got a call from a guy in Salisbury and the clock was just laying in a storage unit and had quit running. I did s|me work on it and got it running again.” The most common problem that occurs with grandfa­ ther clocks is owners not having their clocks serviced regularly. Grandfather Clocks Should Be Serviced Regularly “I recommend a grandfather clock be serviced every three years. There is a lot of wear that goes in with the steel and brass components in the clock that needs lubrication and service.” I asked Grant what the most expensive grandfather clock that he has worked on was and he said $5,000 plus. “Sometimes it’s hard to put a retail value on pre 1900 clocks but I have definitely worked on some expensive clocks,” Grant said. “Sometimes folks find grandfather clocks at estate sales and think they have found a gem but a lot of the time it just turns out to be worth about what they paid for it at the estate sale.” Shop Location and Phone Number Grant said it usually takes him around an hour to service or repair a grandfather clock. His shop is located at 1291 Peoples Creek Road in Advance. Grant can be reached at^336) 251 -3655. NEW GRASS.

But, for those of us living abroad, plans to come home can always go differently than imagined. As you might expect, this year has been a particularly rocky at­ tempt. Flights got canceled, and I, currently pursuing my master’s in Munich, Germany, got stuck. Just about anyone tuning in to the situation here will tell you how disruptive the virus has been for a country stereotyped for its “Gelas- senheit,” calm composure, and careful planning. People have been on edge. While true panic about potential food and supply shortages never broke out, many, out of compulsion and angst, began buying items such as toilet paper and pasta in bulk, known as “Hamster- kaufe^” or directly translat­ ed from German “hamster” “buying”. Responses to the virus have been varied across the country. Germany is a fed­ eral system, much like the U.S., meaning states have rights to handle the situa­ tion in their own accord. Bavaria, the state Munich is located in, was one of the first of the German states to react. In mid- to late-March, the Minister-President of Bavaria Markus Sdder said he was done chatting about the situation in Berlin, Ger- Crossword Puttie many’s capital. After that, Sdder enacted a relatively strict stay-at-home order. Groups of two or more, who aren’t com­ prised of members of the same household, are to be slapped with punitive fines, ranging up to €25,000, if spotted in public. With that, all forms of associational and public life have been ended. Easter worship services were can­ celed accordingly or moved online; my plans included. Before this all started, I was supposed to return to North Carolina. My girlfriend, who’s German, was supposed to celebrate Easter with my family. However, the Trump administration barred Europeans from traveling to the US due to COVID-19. The European Union soon followed, shutting its bor­ ders to nearly all foreigners. Germany also closed parts of its borders with neigh­ bors. Over the past few weeks, the State Department has advised Americans abroad to return home immediately or prepare to stay abroad for an "indefinite period." At the same time, photos flooding German media and the internet of Ameri­ cans wading through large packed customs gates made me hesitant to return home. 10 plus hours in a plane didn’t seem appealing amid a pandemic. And it’s an unsettling thought, knowing you could be lucky in one re­ gard, by being asymptom­ atic, and knowing that this could also make you very unlucky — visiting home could lead to accidental infections of friends and family members. Yet, despite all of this, some things have gone on seemingly normal here in Munich. On March 15, shortly before the restrictions went into place, Bavaria held municipal elections as normal despite concerns. The government quickly adjusted for the March 29 “Stichwahl,” runoff elec­ tion, switching to mail-in voting. And, there’s been little discussion about the elec­ tion, especially in com­ parison to the Wisconsin elections, which caught the attention of major news­ prints such as the New York Times. Moving is still allowed, too. Anyone familiar with Munich’s rental market, knows it’s a headache to find a place to live. But after a relatively lengthy search, I found one, with a move in date of April 1. My contract for a student dorm room I was subletting ended at the end of March, and even as I repeatedly inquired with my prior landlord, I was told moving out should and could take place a.s normal. Moving whilst social distancing and most shops are closed is no easy feat. Buying essential items such as a bed or desk can go from being a relatively quick one-day trip to Ikea to a weeklong Amazon shopping spree as well as a weeklong sleeping session on a cheap foam mattress. Still, despite efforts to restrict movement and continual media reminders, some people keep ignoring social distancing guide­ lines. For example, there was last Friday when I went for a run in a park (doing sports outside by yourself is still allowed). What one might imagine to be a joyful activity in solitude became a social distancing nightmare. The same has been true for going shop­ ping at the grocery store or walking down the street. Regardless of what you do, there’s still people who will walk by or up to you unbeknownst and well within six feet. On top of this, many still aren’t wearing non-medical masks or gloves in public. However, non-medical masks and gloves aren’t required, and recommen­ dations have been mixed or controversial. Medical masks have been recom­ mended against as they are needed in hospitals. But, even with some ignoring warnings anrJ punitive measures, efforts seem to be working and the situation seems to have relaxed some, at least according to the daily refer- ence.s to the John Hopkin’s ticker of infection.s and the perception of my German friends and their family members. Germany, in part due to better foresight and their ro­ bust healthcare system, was better prepared than most European countries (prob­ ably also better prepared than the United States). COVID-19 patients from several southern European countries, such as Italy, are now even being flown to Germany to be treated. Locals who I’ve talked to now rumor that there might be an easing of the current restrictions, basing their assumption on Austria’.s response. And it’.s also beginning to become a widely discussed theme in daily media reports. However, this is far from certain. Italy extended its quarantine measures until early May.

Editor’s Note: Following are narratives written by Jeremy Brooks ’ students at North Davie Middle School. Sunburn “I hate thi.s already,” I said to my friends. My friends all tried to comfort me and tell me that I was fine.but I sure didn't feel fine at all. What I was dreading was Field Day, the day of having to stay in a group with a ton of strangers I could honestly care less about, and hav­ ing to stick by their sides all day long. And personally, it was one of the most dreadful things ever. But what made matters worse wa.s the heat, the boiling heat. It already made my skin crawl having to think about it. When I got into my group of course there wa.s no one I knew and I didn’t even try to make an effort to talk to them. As we started to play game.s that just made my whole mood worse. It wa.s a dodgeball game first, I might not be super competitive but for now I needed to get my anger out some way or another. I was getting a good amount of people out when someone decided to hit me in the back. That led to me blowing them out of the water.they probably wished they never hit me in the end. Next my group and I went outside to play more games. Water games, which got on my nerves, and other dumb games that were really testing my limit. Those games went on for ages, and the boiling heat went along with them too. I started to feel like I wa.s sick, not like the flu but like my body wa.s on fire and I was melting away with it. My legs felt all wobbly like Jello, but stinging like one thousand bee stings. I told my leader but she didn’t believe me at all, probably because I wa.s trying to fake being sick in some water games. On our last water game our leader said it was time for us to leave, I threw down everything I had in my hands. “Finally,” I sighed with relief, “it’s over!” Kaylee and I ran onto the bus and plopped down into our seats, not wanting to move because of our exhaustion. “Ash,” Kaylee said looking at me in surprise. “What,” I tilted my head,”something on my face?” “Well ... not just your face.but your whole body.” My eye.s widened and I kept asking her what wa.s on my face, she never answered me though. “What could it be,” I thought to myself, “it could be anything!” Thoughts were racing my head and I finally froze up. "Sunburn.” I turned around to Kaylee,she heard me and slowly nod­ ded her head. No, this can’t be true, not another sunburn. My skin is terrible with bums, all pale and weak and then it turns into a gross burnt red. I was crossing my fingers so hard I thought they would snap in half. “Please don’t let it be a sunbum.please don’t let it be one,’’ I said to myself over and over. 1 felt all my rage melt away and it was replaced with fear, fear of what I would see when I looked into the bath­ room mirror. When the bus pulled up to the school, I made sure I was the first to hop off the bus and run inside. I went straight to the bathroom and I froze up. If I went around the comer I would be face to face with myself and how I looked. “Well, here goes nothing ,”I took a deep shaky breath a.s I turned around the comer. My eyes widened in fear a.s I let out a shriek of pure fear. I felt vomit rising in my throat a.s I looked at my body in terror, I was covered in a dark blistered red all over my body. Skin ha.s already been peeled away to new skin that was burnt and ruined. 1 sat down against the wall trying not to flip out. “This isn’t real,you’ll look back in the mirror and every­ thing will be fine,”I repeated to myself over and over again. I soon started to feel hot tears streaming down my face like pools of lava burning me again. I just realized how sore my body hurt, it felt like 1 was being poked by needles all over. I heard Kaylee come into the bathroom, she knew I was upset about the sunburn and helped me up and off the floor and back to class. When we got back to class my teacher was furious that I was late, she didn't even try to recognize the obvious bum on me. She just sent me onto the bu.s with everyone else. I finally got home and my mom was wondering how I got the terrible bums, I told her that I was out in the sun all day long and after a while it did this to me. She wa.s devastated and sent me into my room so I could rest. For the rest of the week I had to stay inside and not go out into the sun to get worse. After that one day in the summer I always remembered to wear sunscreen no matter what, 1 won't ever get burned like that again I hope. Ashley Naylor tense the farther you go into the deep end, that we would all hold hand.s and go to the deep end, and whoever slip.s their hand first loses. No punishment, just loses. But dumb little me back then still decided to go in. We all held each others hand and mshed into the water with our towels on the chairs we set it on. My hands trembled as I held hand.s with Hami, and Helen. Waves splashing against my legs oblivious to my “death” that awaits me ahead. Little me only went in because my cousins went in, and I didn’t want to be uncool either. As my cousin.s kept going far away from the shallow part of the pool my feet started to drift away from the bottom, meaning my feet couldn't reach the bottom anymore. I could also feel the waves getting stron­ ger, I could even almost feel death tugging on my legs. I panicked a.s I thought of that, so I started to kick at the water even more. Thinking of that “death” made my head spin, or maybe the waves were just spinning my head, ei­ ther one wa.s bad. We got deeper into the water considering the fact that the water was at my chin, and since all my other cousins were tall at the time the water was only above their shoulders. I panicked. Wa.s I just too short? Were all the decisions I’ve made up to this point just so I could die? I gasfjed thinking I was gonna die right there and then, so I choked on water. I felt the water gushing down my throat and a.s I coughed hard my hand slipped from my cousin’s hand causing me to kick water for dear life. I started to run out of breath, and while I was in that life threatening situation I still had hope. So I reached out my hand out of the water and Thank. The. Gods. I wa.s saved! My cousin, Helen, grabbed my hand just in time before I would sink into the hands of death. I coughed out a lot of water as my cousins helped me swim back to the shallow end. My legs sluggishly dragged across the floor because my energy wa.s draining right before me and I dropped down on a chair. I put my towel on, feeling like I have been reincarnated a.s a newborn baby wrapped in a towel. "Are you alright? You don’t look so well! What hap­ pened?” My mom asked anxiously. "I almost drowned, I want to go home!” I cried out. My mom sighed and tried to comfort me right after that horri­ ble event and we went home straight to our hotel. After that tragic, horrific, life threatening situation, I sighed relieved and happy. After all, I could’ve died! That memory of me drowning was horrible as a kid, but now thinking of that story is almost comical to me! Casey Cao walked toward Kayden and I. “Look, I’m glad you’re okay. But I have to go.” “Yeah of course! Thank you Alex,” I said. Kayden, who was still petrified of what he just saw, half-smiled. Alex smiled back and walked off. “Okay y'all let’s go home now,” my dad said. “Ye.s please!” I said. “I think we’re all ready!” Mom said. When we got home, I took a quick shower, brushed my teeth, and washed my face in a pretty short time period- about forty-five minutes. 1 was about to get in bed when Kayden walked in. “Hey, I’m glad you’re okay! You han­ dled that really well... after you got off at least,” he said. ”Hey! You wouldn't have handled that any better!” I said. “Ehhhh, you’re probably right,” Alright, I'll see you in the morning okay'? I'm really tired.” •‘I’ll bet.. I'm tired too and I wasn’t even the one falling down the escalator!” ■’Yeah, goodnight, I love you.” “I love you too. Goodnight sis.” I don’t know how 1 remember almost every detail of what everyone said and did that day, but I do! Or it feels like it. Kayden and I still have a really good bond. Well, when we see each other, which isn’t very often. Tm in my third year of college and he moved to be closer to his work. But when he visits, it's like the good old days all over again. Family time, even when it involves falling down an escalator, is priceless!

Trencher Work Hauling Septic Systems ; Fooangs Loader Work Untitled I arrived in a popular city in Vietnam where eye grab­ bing water parks are found, and delicious street food suf­ focating your nose with a mouth drooling aroma. A.s my family called for a taxi to drive us to the hotel I scanned the area. The city was beautiful, and the light blue skies painted the translucent water in the water fountain. But as I was observing the city with my curious eyes. My taxi came up to drive u.s to the hotel. The hotel was very nice. My room had a beach view so we could see the ocean all the way from our patio. The ocean was enchanting, almost addicting to look at. It’s shimmering blue waves crashed into the shore. I thought to myself "Today is going to be a good day!” But not for long... “Hey, Isn’t there a popular water park nearby?” I asked. “Really? We should go!” my cousin Helen replied. “Yeah, after all that trip was exhausting!” We asked our parents to take us there and they agreed. After all of that we rushed to the bathrooms to get changed into our bathing suits and grabbed our towels. All five of us including my sister dashed out the hotel to the rental car we got from the hotel. We went to the waterpark, and it was a big waterpark. It was a water park that was full of fun, and intense rides that would make you scream your biggest se­ crets. I walked around astonished by the view. Skyscraper high water slides towered over my confidence. “Tm not about to go on those.” I thought to myself. Luckily for me, my cousins did not want to ride those either. So we went to the most known part of the water- park. It was a big pool that made waves and the farther you would go towards the deep end, the more intense it would get. My cousin, Helen, decided to come up with a fun, but fstupid idea. The idea was that since the pool waJfs get in- The Light I Saw To this day, I still think back. The day of confusion, worry, stress, and anticipation. Yes, Tm now in college and that catastrophe happened in middle school, but it still send.s shivers down my back. That one Sunday afternoon that went from fun family time to straight terrifying. My family and I had traveled a lot over the summer, so we had only had enough time to get the actual school supplies. We came to the mall to get clothes. Kayden was walking in front of me and was closer to the mall’s en­ trance. "Oh my Lord, Sophie! You’re so slow!" My old­ er brother yelled at me. All I did wa.s laugh as I slowly snuck up behind him. I jumped on my brother’.s back on the way into the mall. He caught me and laughed. My dad opened the door for Kayden. We walked in and Kayden walked a few step.s before telling me to get down. I climbed down and began to walk beside him. One thing I’ve real­ ized is that not all siblings have a good strong relation­ ship like Kayden and I do. Our family decided to split into two groups. My brother and dad went off to get Kayden's clothes. And my mom and I went to get me clothes. I found a lot of good items. My mom texted my dad and apparently Kayden wasn’t done. My mom and I went to Starbuck.s because 1 got bored and my mom got annoyed by my voice constantly bugging her. I started to think to myself. Wait, why is she taking me to get caffeine if Tm already hyper’? But I decided not to share those thoughts out loud. My brother and dad ap­ peared. They saw my mom and I at Starbuck.s and gave each other a weird look. "Oh my... Mom! Why’d you give her coffee?!” Kayden said. “Well, she started to get annoying,” My mom replied. “Hey!” I exclaimed. Kayden was almost on the floor laughing. He put his arm around me and said, "Sis... I love you but you can be a little obnoxious," I glared at him. “Rude,” "Alright kids, let's stop fighting and go home,” my dad said. I assumed that by the dead silence that we all agreed. We began to walk toward the escalator. “Yes! We have to go on the escalator!” I said energetically. Kayden knew my love for escalators. He ran in front of me and jumped on the escalator right behind Mom and Dad. I ran to try and get in front of him but the step slipped. When I opened my eyes everything suddenly slowed down. Everything wa.s blurry and unclear. I had tripped. I was I’alling face-first down the escalator, I felt like there were a million little eyes watching me. My body be­ gan to tingle. I started to taste blood in my mouth even though my mouth wasn’t bleeding, I saw a white flash when my eyes closed. I wondered if that was what people meant by “My life flashed before my eyes,” Everything I heard, which was a lot, was unclear. My brother’s yells. Mom’s cries, and people muttering to one another. But there wa.s one thing that was clear....my screams. I felt like I had been falling for an eternity. I caught a glimpse of my brother’s terrified, bewildered face. My family was off the escalator... but would I make it off too? The tip of my nose was now touching a step, my eyes closed when suddenly I felt someone grab my hand quick­ ly, very quickly. The stranger pulled me up and we stepped off the escalator. A mix of happiness, and relief washed over me as I felt Kayden’s arms wrap around me. The stranger let out a sigh of relief. He knew I was safe now. My mom. I could tell, was speechless. She walked slowly over to the boy. I personally thought he was college age or senior year of high school maybe. My mom hugged him gently. “My name’s Alex. Um are you sure she is okay?” the boy asked, sounding concerned. My mom looked at Kayden. Kayden caught Mom’s glance. He looked at me then looked back at Mom and nodded, “Yes, sh^seems to be,” Mom said. Alex Untitled “It's crazy how there is no one here,” said Sean a.s he gazed upon the long desolate beach. "The beach is way more peaceful at night,” I replied. “If only we could surf at night.” "Hey dude,” said Sean,”Tm tired, Tm gonna head out.” “Ok see ya tomorrow,” 1 said a.s Sean shoved his crocks on and left the beach. I made sure that Sean wa,s gone be­ fore looking up at the red flag hung on the tip of the pole. I took off his shirt and sprinted into the water with his surf­ board in hand. The next morning, I awoke to the sound of sausage links screaming in the microwave as if they were still alive. I ate some link.s and went to check the mail. 1 came back in the camper to put the newspaper on the table but a.s I did you could hear a blood curdling scream coming from the beach. 1 was out in a flash running on that old dirt path. I wa.s hear­ ing vague crying noises as 1 stepped out onto the beach. It was horrific. Blood gushing out of a seven or eight year old girl with red stained blond hair. I could taste copper a.s I turned around and puked, turning the sand orangish pink, 1 closed my eyes hoping this wa.s just a nightmare but it wasn't- I op>ened my eyes and quickly called nine one one. ’’Hello, what's your emergency?” ■’There wa.s a shark bite on Fertile BBeach,” I replied . “Do you Know how bad it is?” She said. ’’No” 1 said, ’’1 prefer not to look at her.” “Well you might have to.” “If You say so.” ”Ok,” she said, "give me the details.” I hesitantly turned around to see what wa.s the most gruesome scene I’d seen since the last scary movie I saw with Sean. A good sized chunk missing out of her thigh. The sand stained with blood gradually getting washed away every time the tide came in wiping the blood off the little girl that was no longer with us. “She's dead," I exclaimed as my voice cracked "Oh ok,” she said. “ we'll send in someone to clean her up and you said Fertile Beach right?" “Yes ma'am.’’ “Ok bye we’ll be there shortly." I waited for the clean up crew on the shore, keeping about ten yards away from the decaying matter. Why would she be out here at such an early time. I thought to myself. When I got home I read the news, hoping that I could get the image out of my head. I skimmed to what looked like a good article. It wa.s about a shark bite. Of course that's the only thing in the news 1 thought. 1 didn’t even read the stupid article I just thew it in the garbage, ’’Kobe," I said. I found myself at the basketball court trying to forget about thi.s morning. As I dribbled the sand crunched in between the ball and the court. I was about to sho<n the ball when I saw Sean in the comer of my eye. "Hey Ace," shouted Sean, "You won't believe what happened at the beach this morning." “I know what happened." 1 said in a serious voice "Oh sorry.” I looked down at my hand.s all scared up and raw from the sandy basketball. “Let’s go to the beach." I said, looking back at Sean. “Really right now.” “Why not.” “Ok then let's go,” retorted Sean. And with that, we went to the beach walking alongside each other. With each step I took, there wa.s something in­ side me telling me to turn back and run, but I trudged on­ ward. Til get over it, 1 thought to myself over and over so many times on that narrow treacherous path. Now I could hear happy, oblivious bursts of laughter. I finally looked up to see a bright colorful beach with at least a hundred peo­ ple. I brought my gaze to a little boy digging a hole where she was laying this morning. It wa.s more similar to a grave versu.s a moat for his castle. I stepped onto the beach as I thought. I'll get over it. I took off my L.L.Bean flip flops the waves coming in and out a.s if they were calling me. I hesitantly took my shirt off, exposing my back to the suns rays. The sand, like hot coal.s burned my feet as I watched Sean sprint in water. “C'mon dude,” yelled Sean, “the water's fine.” "Tm cornin’,” I yelled back. I sped walked to the water until my feet sunk into the moist sand and I tripped into the tide. As I swam over to Sean something brushed up against my left foot 1 turned around to see the most gruesome scene since I saw that little girl this morning.

But, for those of us living abroad, plans to come home can always go differently than imagined. As you might expect, this year has been a particularly rocky at­ tempt. Flights got canceled, and I, currently pursuing my master’s in Munich, Germany, got stuck. Just about anyone tuning in to the situation here will tell you how disruptive the virus has been for a country stereotyped for its “Gelas- senheit,” calm composure, and careful planning. People have been on edge. While true panic about potential food and supply shortages never broke out, many, out of compulsion and angst, began buying items such as toilet paper and pasta in bulk, known as “Hamster- kaufe.” or directly translat­ ed from German “hamster” “buying”. Resjxjnses to the virus have been varied across the country, Germany is a fed­ eral system, much like the U.S., meaning states have rights to handle the situa­ tion in their own accord. Bavaria, the state Munich is located in, was one of the first of the German states to react. In mid- to late-March, the Minister-President of Bavaria Markus Sbder said he was done chatting about the situation in Berlin, Ger- Crossword Puzzle 37 36 4d 43 many’s capital. After that, Sbder enacted a relatively strict stay-at-home order. Groups of two or more, who aren’t com­ prised of members of the same household, are to be slapped with punitive fines, ranging up to €25,000, if spotted in public. With that, all forms of associational and public life have been ended. Easter worship services were can­ celed accordingly or moved online; my plans included. Before this all started, I was supposed to return to North Carolina. My girlfriend, who’s German, was supposed to celebrate Easter with my family. However, the Trump administration barred Europeans from traveling to the US due to COVID-19. The European Union soon followed, shutting its bor­ ders to nearly all foreigners. Germany also closed parts of its borders with neigh­ bors. Over the past few weeks, the State Department has advised Americans abroad to return home immediately or prepare to stay abroad for an "indefinite period." At the same time, photos flooding German media and the internet of Ameri­ cans wading through large packed customs gates made me hesitant to return home, 10 plus hours in a plane didn’t seem appealing amid a pandemic. And it’s an unsettling thought, knowing you could be lucky in one re­ gard, by being asymptom­ atic, and knowing that this could also make you very unlucky — visiting home could lead to accidental infections of friends and family members. Yet, despite all of this, some things have gone on seemingly normal here in Munich. On March 15, shortly before the restrictions went into place, Bavaria held municipal elections a.s normal despite concerns. The government quickly adjusted for the March 29 “Stichwahl,” runoff elec­ tion, switching to mail-in voting. And, there’s been little discussion about the elec­ tion, especially in com­ parison to the Wisconsin elections, which caught the attention of major news­ prints such as the New York Times. Moving is still allowed, too. Anyone familiar with Munich’s rental market, knows it’s a headache to find a place to live. But after a relatively lengthy search, I found one, with a move in date of April 1. My contract for a student dorm room I was subletting ended at the end of March, and even as I repeatedly inquired with my prior landlord, I was told moving out should and could take place as normal. Moving whilst social distancing and most shops are closed is no easy feat. Buying essential items such as a bed or desk can go from being a relatively quick one-day trip to Ikea to a weeklong Amazon shopping spree as well as a weeklong sleeping session on a cheap foam mattress. Still, despite efforts to restrict movement and continual media reminders, some people keep ignoring social distancing guide­ lines. For example, there was last Friday when I went for a run in a park (doing sports outside by yourself is still allowed). What one might imagine to be a joyful activity in solitude became a social distancing nightmare. The same has been true for going shop­ ping at the grocery store or walking down the street. Regardless of what you do, there’s still people who will walk by or up to you unbeknownst and well within six feet. On top of this, many still aren’t wearing non-medical masks or glove.s in public. However, non-medical masks and gloves aren’t required, and recommen- dation.s have been mixed or controversial. Medical masks have been recom­ mended against a.s they are needed in hospitals. But, even with some ignoring warnings and punitive measures, efforts seem to be working and the situation seems to have relaxed some, at least according to the daily refer­ ences to the John Hopkin’s ticker of infections and the perception of my German friends and their family members. Germany, in part due to better foresight and their ro­ bust healthcare system, was better prepared than most European countries (prob­ ably also better prepared than the United States). COVID-19 patients from several southern European countries, such as Italy, are now even being flown to Germany to be treated. Locals who I’ve talked to now rumor that there might be an easing of the current restrictions, basing their assumption on Austria’s response. And it’.s also beginning to become a widely discussed theme in daily media reports. However, this i.s far from certain. Italy extended it.s quarantine measures until early May.

Editor’s Note: Following are narratives written by Jeremy Brooks' students at North Davie Middle School. Sunburn “I hate this already,” I said to my friends. My friends all tried to comfort me and tell me that I was fine.but I sure didn't feel fine at all. What I was dreading was Field Day, the day of having to stay in a group with a ton of strangers I could honestly care less about, and hav­ ing to stick by their sides all day long. And personally, it was one of the most dreadful things ever. But what made matters worse was the heat, the boiling heat. It already made my skin crawl having to think about it. When I got into my group of course there was no one I knew and I didn’t even try to make an effort to talk to them. As we started to play games that just made my whole mood worse. It was a dodgeball game first, I might not be super competitive but for now I needed to get my anger out some way or another. I was getting a good amount of people out when someone decided to hit me in the back. That led to me blowing them out of the water.they probably wished they never hit me in the end. Next my group and I went outside to play more games. Water games, which got on my nerves, and other dumb games that were really testing my limit. Those games went on for ages, and the boiling heat went along with them too. I started to feel like I was sick, not like the flu but like my body was on fire and I was melting away with it. My legs felt all wobbly like Jello, but stinging like one thousand bee stings. I told my leader but she didn’t believe me at all, probably because I was trying to fake being sick in some water games. On our last water game our leader said it was time for us to leave, I threw down everything I had in my hands. “Finally,” I sighed with relief, “it’s over!” Kaylee and I ran onto the bus and plopped down into our seats, not wanting to move because of our exhaustion. “Ash,” Kaylee said looking at me in surprise. “What,” I tilted my head,”something on my face?” “Well ... not just your face.but your whole body.” My eyes widened and I kept asking her what was on my face, she never answered me though. “What could it be,” I thought to myself, “it could be anything!” Thoughts were racing my head and I finally froze up. “Sunburn.” I turned around to Kaylee .she heard me and slowly nod­ ded her head. No, this can't be true, not another sunburn. My skin is terrible with bums, all pale and weak and then it turns into a gross burnt red. I was crossing my fingers so hard I thought they would snap in half. “Please don’t let it be a sunburn,please don’t let it be one,” I said to myself over and over. I felt all my rage melt away and it was replaced with fear, fear of what I would see when I looked into the bath­ room mirror. When the bu.s pulled up to the school, I made sure I wa.s the first to hop off the bus and run inside. I went straight to the bathroom and I froze up. If I went around the comer I would be face to face with my.self and how I looked. “Well,here goes nothing .”1 took a deep shaky breath a.s I turned around the comer. My eyes widened in fear a.s I let out a shriek of pure fear. I felt vomit rising in my throat as I looked at my body in terror, I wa.s covered in a dark blistered red all over my body. Skin ha.s already been peeled away to new skin that wa.s burnt and mined. I sat down against the wall trying not to flip out. “This isn’t real.you'll look back in the mirror and every­ thing will be fine,"I repeated to my.self over and over again. I soon started to feel hot tears streaming down my face like pools of lava burning me again. I just realized how- sore my body hurt, it felt like I was being poked by needle.s all over. I heard Kaylee come into the bathroom, she knew I was upset about the sunburn and helped me up and off the floor and back to class. When we got back to class my teacher was furious that I was late, she didn't even try to recognize the obvious bum on me. She just sent me onto the bu.s with everyone else. I finally got home and my mom was wondering how I got the terrible bums, I told her that I was out in the sun all day long and after a while it did thi.s to me. She was devastated and sent me into my room so I could rest. For the rest of the week I had to stay inside and not go out into the sun to get worse. After that one day in the summer I always remembered to wear sunscreen no matter what, I won't ever get burned like that again I hope. Ashley Naylor tense the farther you go into the deep end, that we would all hold hand.s and go to the deep end, and whoever slip.s their hand first loses. No punishment, just loses. But dumb little me back then still decided to go in. We all held each other.s hand and rushed into the water with our towels on the chairs we set it on. My hands trembled as I held hand.s with Hami, and Helen. Waves splashing against my leg.s oblivious to my “death” that awaits me ahead. Little me only went in because my cousins went in, and I didn’t want to be uncool either. A.s my cousin.s kept going far away from the shallow part of the pool my feet started to drift away from the bottom, meaning my feet couldn't reach the bottom anymore. I could also feel the waves getting stron­ ger, I could even almost feel death tugging on my legs. I panicked a.s I thought of that, so I started to kick at the water even more. Thinking of that “death” made my head spin, or maybe the waves were just spinning my head, ei­ ther one was bad. We got deeper into the water considering the fact that the water wa.s at my chin, and since all my other cousins were tall at the time the water was only above their shoulders. I panicked. Was I just too short'.’ Were all the decisions I’ve made up to this point just so I could die'? I gasped thinking I was gonna die right there and then, so I choked on water. I felt the water gushing down my throat and a.s I coughed hard my hand slipped from my cousin’.s hand causing me to kick water for dear life. I started to run out of breath, and while I was in that life threatening situation I still had hope. So I reached out my hand out of the water and Thank. The. Gods, I was saved! My cousin, Helen, grabbed my hand just in time before I would sink into the hands of death. I coughed out a lot of water as my cousin.s helped me swim back to the shallow end. My legs sluggishly dragged across the floor because my energy was draining right before me and I dropped down on a chair. I put my towel on, feeling like 1 have been reincarnated a.s a newborn baby wrapped in a towel. "Are you alright? You don’t look so well! What hap­ pened?" My mom asked anxiously, “I almost drowned, I want to go home!” I cried out. My mom sighed and tried to comfort me right after that horri­ ble event and we went home straight to our hotel. After that tragic, horrific, life threatening situation, I sighed relieved and happy. After all, I could’ve died! That memory of me drowning wa.s horrible as a kid, but now thinking of that story is almost comical to me! Casev Cao walked toward Kayden and I. “Look, I’m glad you’re okay. But I have to go.” “Yeah of course! Thank you Alex,” I said. Kayden, who was still petrified of what he just saw, half-smiled. Alex smiled back and walked off, “Okay y'all let’s go home now,” my dad said. “Yes please!” I said. “I think we're all ready!” Mom said. When we got home, I took a quick shower, brushed my teeth, and washed my face in a pretty short time period- about forty-five minutes. I wa.s about to get in bed when Kayden walked in. "Hey, I’m glad you’re okay! You han­ dled that really well... after you got off at least,” he said, “Hey! You wouldn’t have handled that any better!” I said. “Ehhhh, you're probably right,” Alright, I’ll see you in the morning okay? I’m really tired.” ”T1I bet.. I’m tired too and I wasn't even the one falling down the escalator!” “Yeah, goodnight, 1 love you.” “I love you too. Goodnight sis.” I don't know how I remember almost every detail of what everyone said and did that day, but I do! Or it feels like it. Kayden and I still have a really good bond. Well, when we see each other, which isn’t very often. I’m in my third year of college and he moved to be closer to his work. But when he visits, it's like the good old day.s all over again. Family time, even when it involves falling down an escalator, is priceless!

As my family called for a taxi to drive us to the hotel I scanned the area. The city was beautiful, and the light blue skies painted the translucent water in the water fountain. But as I was observing the city with my curiou.s eyes. My taxi came up to drive u.s to the hotel. The hotel was very nice. My room had a beach view so we could see the ocean all the way from our patio. The ocean was enchanting, almost addicting to look at. It’s shimmering blue wave.s crashed into the shore. I thought to myself “Today i.s going to be a good day!” But not for long... “Hey, Isn’t there a popular water park nearby?” I asked. “Really’.’ We should go!” my cousin Helen replied. “Yeah, after all that trip was exhausting!” We asked our parents to take us there and they agreed. After all of that we rushed to the bathrooms to get changed into our bathing suits and grabbed our towels. All five of us including my sister dashed out the hotel to the rental car we got from the hotel. We went to the waterpark, and it was a big waterpark. It was a water park that was full of fun, and intense rides that would make you scream your biggest se­ crets. I walked around astonished by the view. Skyscraper high water slides towered over my confidence. “I’m not about to go on those.” I thought to myself. Luckily for me, my cousins did not want to ride those either. So we went to the most known part of the water- park. It was a big pool that made waves and the farther you would go towards the deep end, the more intense it would get. My cousin, Helen, decided to come up with a fun, but stupid idea. The idea was that since the pool wa^s get in- The Light I Saw To thi.s day, I still think back. The day of confusion, worry, stress, and anticipation. Yes, I’m now in college and that catastrophe happiened in middle school, but it still sends shivers down my back. That one Sunday aftemtxjn that went from fun family time to straight terrifying. My family and 1 had traveled a lot over the summer, so we had only had enough time to get the actual school supplies. We came to the mall to get clothes. Kayden wa.s walking in front of me and wa.s closer to the mall’.s en­ trance. ”Oh my Lord, Sophie! You’re so slow!” My old­ er brother yelled at me. All I did wa.s laugh as I slowly snuck up behind him. I jumped on my brother’.s back on the way into the mall. He caught me and laughed. My dad opened the door for Kayden. We walked in and Kayden walked a few slep.s before telling me to get down. I climbed down and began to walk beside him. One thing I’ve real­ ized is that not all siblings have a gtxxj strong relation­ ship like Kayden and I do. Our family decided to split into two groups. My brother and dad went off to get Kayden’.s clothes. And my mom and I went to get me clothes. I found a lot of good items. My mom texted my dad and apparently Kayden wasn’t done. My mom and I went to Starbucks because I got bored and my mom got annoyed by my voice constantly bugging her. I started to think to myself. Wait, why is she taking me to get caffeine if I’m already hyper’.’ But I decided not to share those thought.s out loud. My brother and dad ap­ peared. They saw my mom and I at Starbucks and gave each other a weird look. “Oh my... Mom! Why’d you give her coffee?!” Kayden said. “Well, she started to get annoying,” My mom replied. “Hey!” I exclaimed. Kayden was almost on the floor laughing. He put his arm around me and said, “Sis... I love you but you can be a little obnoxious,” I glared at him. “Rude,” ■'Alright kids, let's stop fighting and go home,” my dad said. I assumed that by the dead silence that we all agreed. We began to walk toward the escalator. ”Yes! We have to go on the escalator!” I said energetically. Kayden knew my love for escalators. He ran in front of me and jumped on the escalator right behind Mom and Dad. I ran to try and get in front of him but the step slipped. When I opened my eyes everything suddenly slowed down. Everything was blurry and unclear. I had tripped. I wa.s falling face-first down the escalator. I felt like there were a million little eyes watching me. My body be­ gan to tingle. I started to taste blood in my mouth even though my mouth wasn’t bleeding. I saw a white flash when my eye.s closed. I wondered if that was what people meant by “My life flashed before my eyes,” Everything 1 heard, which was a lot, was unclear. My brother’s yells. Mom's cries, and pieople muttering to one another. But there was one thing that was clear....my screams. I felt like I had been falling for an eternity. I caught a glimpse of my brother’s terrified, bewildered face. My family was off the escalator... but would I make it off too? The tip of my nose was now touching a step, my eyes closed when suddenly I felt someone grab my hand quick­ ly, very quickly. The stranger pulled me up and we stepped off the escalator. A mix of happiness, and relief washed over me as I felt Kayden’s arms wrap around me. The stranger let out a sigh of relief. He knew I was safe now. My mom. I could tell, was speechless. She walked slowly over to the boy. I personally thought he was college age or senior year of high school maybe. My mom hugged him gently. “My name’s Alex. Um are you sure she is okay?” the boy asked, sounding concerned. My mom looked at Kayden. Kayden caught Mom’s glance. He looked at me then looked back at Mom and nodded. “Yes, sh^seems to be,” Mom said. Alex Untitled “It’.s crazy how there i.s no one here,” said Sean a.s he gazed upon the long desolate beach. “The beach is way more peaceful at night,” I replied. “If only we could surf at night." “Hey dude,” said Sean, ”I'm tired, I’m gonna head out.” "Ok see ya tomorrow,” I said as Sean shoved his crocks on and left the beach. I made sure that Sean wa,s gone be­ fore looking up at the red flag hung on the tip of the pole. I took off his shirt and sprinted into the water with his surf­ board in hand. The next morning, I awoke to the sound of sausage link.s screaming in the microwave as if they were still alive. I ate some links and went to check the mail. 1 came back in the camper to put the newspaper on the table but a.s I did you could hear a blood curdling scream coming from the beach. 1 was out in a flash running on that old dirt path. I was hear­ ing vague crying noises a.s 1 stepped out onto the beach. It was horrific. Blotxl gushing out of a seven or eight year old girl with red stained blond hair. I could taste copper as I turned around and puked, turning the sand orangish pink. I closed my eyes hoping this was just a nightmare but it wasn’t. I opened my eyes and quickly called nine one one. “Hello, what's your emergency?” "There was a shark bite on Fertile BBeach,” 1 replied . “Do you Know how bad it is?” She said. "No” 1 said, "1 prefer not to look at her.” "Well you might have to." "If You say so.” "Ok,” she said, "give me the details." I hesitantly turned around to see what was the most gruesome scene I'd seen since the last scary movie I saw with Sean. A good sized chunk missing out of her thigh. The sand stained with blood gradually getting washed away every time the tide came in wiping the blood off the little girl that wa.s no longer with us. "She'.s dead,” I exclaimed a.s my voice cracked "Oh ok," she said, " we'll send in someone to clean her up and you said Fertile Beach right?" "Ye.s ma'am." "Ok bye we’ll be there shortly." I waited for the clean up crew on the shore, keeping about ten yards away from the decaying matter. Why would she be out here at such an early time, I thought to myself. When I got home I read the news, hoping that I could get the image out of my head, I skimmed to what looked like a good article. It was about a shark bite. Of course that's the only thing in the news I thought. I didn’t even read the stupid article I just thew it in the garbage, "Kobe.” I said. 1 found myself at the basketball court trying to forget about this morning. As I dribbled the sand crunched in between the ball and the court, I was about to shoot the ball when I saw Sean in the comer of my eye. "Hey Ace,” shouted Sean, "You won't believe what happened at the beach this morning." "1 know what happened," 1 said in a serious voice "Oh sorry." I looked down at my hands all scared up and raw from the sandy basketball. "Let’s go to the beach,” I said, looking back at Sean. ■■Really right now.” “Why not,” "Ok then let's go,” retorted Sean. And with that, we went to the beach walking alongside each other. With each step I took, there was something in­ side me telling me to turn back and run, but I trudged on­ ward. I’ll get over it, 1 thought to myself over and over so many times on that narrow treacherous path. Now I could hear happy, oblivious bursts of laughter. I finally looked up to see a bright colorful beach with at least a hundred peo­ ple. I brought my gaze to a little boy digging a hole where she was laying this morning. It was more similar to a grave versus a moat for hi.s castle. I stepped onto the beach as I thought. I'll get over it. I took off my L.L.Bean flip flops the waves coming in and out as if they were calling me. 1 hesitantly took my shirt off, exposing my back to the suns rays. The sand, like hot coals burned my feet as I watched Sean sprint in water. “C'mon dude,” yelled Sean, “the water's fine.” “I’m cornin’,” I yelled back. I sped walked to the water until my feet sunk into the moist sand and I tripped into the tide. As I swam over to Sean something brushed up against my left foot I turned around to see the most gruesome scene since I saw that little girl thi.s morning.

All of us in County Line send con­ gratulation.'! to the family of William. Our community extend.s sympathy to the family of Evelyn Bolin Draughn; who died Friday, April 10, at Mocksville Senior Liv­ ing, formerly Davie Place. One of eight children, she was bom in 1933 in Iredell County to the late Virgin and Vannie White Bolin. She nwas reared on NC 901 near Clarksbury Unit­ ed Methodist Church and attended there with her family. In 1951 she gradu­ ated from Harmony High School; where she was a member of the Glee Club, Dramatic.s Club, and school newspaper staff. On April 5, 1953, she married Clar­ ence Thomas Draughn in Davie County; the couple settled on Sheffield Road, where they reared children Judy and Larry and joined in worship at Liberty Wes- lyan Church. Evelyn en­ joyed reading her Bible, babysitting children, going to auctions, attending events at Davie Senior Services, and spending time with her family. A graveside service was held Tuesday afternoon of last week at the Liberty Weslyan Church Cemetery, where she was laid to rest. Much appreciation is given to Evelyn and her brother Paul for their contri­ butions through the years to our news "flashbacks." Our community sends get-well wishes to Jennifer Cartner and Kathy Cartner. Jennifer spent several days last week at Forsyth Med­ ical Center and is recuper­ ating at home. Kathy spent several days last week at Wake Forest Baptist Medi­ cal Center and i.s recuperat­ ing at home. Join u.s as we pray for the Lord's divine healing and blessings upon Jennifer, Kathy, and other residents who have health problems. Essays Pray for the Lord's comfort and strength upon the fam­ ily of Evelyn as they adjust to life without her. Also, continue to pray for the many families affected by the coronavirus. In my lifetime I remem­ ber the economic crisis of the 1970s after the Vietnam War ended, the stockmarket crash in 1987, and the "Great Recession" of 2007 to early 2009 followed by the stock market crash. I heard my parent.s and grandparents talk about the crash of 1929 and the "Great Depression " that followed. Mother told about passing folks on the street and their asking if you can spare a nickel. Regarding health issues, I remember the great polio scare. In the early 1950s, my sister and I were not permitted to play outside during the heat of the day. It has been 65 years since the polio vaccine developed by Dr. Jonas Salk and his team at the University of Pittsburgh was approved safe and effective on April 12, 1955. As soon as the vaccine was available lo­ cally, Daddy took my sister and me to the Davie County Health Department, where Mother's cousin Rachel Stroud gave u.s the vac­ cine. In 1993 I had to take a booster before going on a mission trip to India. Please pray that a vac­ cine for the coronavirus will be developed soon and be approved safe and effec­ tive, and remember we have a risen Savior Jesu.s Christ with us always.

I was leaving a trail of blood much like the red carpet. I snap out of my daydream a.s I felt my leg rip off like rotten fabric “Shark!” I screamed, “Sean help!” I managed to get away from the shark, sacrificing my left leg looking back I saw yet again another gruesome scene. The horrid face of a great white emerged from the sea showing off it.s teeth, resembling broken glass. It seemed to smile, the wrinkle.s on it’s face told lots about it’s past. I could tell that I was not the only victim to encounter thi.s malicious creature. It’s beady solid black eye.s pierced through my mind. I will never forget that look. It finally submerged back into the drifting sea. The lifeguard hooked me out of the water. I saw that same red carpet from my daydream then I fainted I awoke to the sound of a faint ring. Immediately, pain rushed from all over my body. Someone nudged rhe. “Hey, are you awake!” I looked and saw Sean and his family sur­ rounding me. They took me home that night in their min­ ivan. It took a long time to recover from that shark bite. Every time they cleaned it, I wanted to scream. One day It wa.s finally time to go back home with my dad. Him and I rejoiced. I looked back at the ocean. I decided I wouldn’t let this shark make me scared to enjoy the seas. There was beauty in everything I saw... well most things.

They were instrumental with seeing the old Zion Chapel Church repaired and painted. The dedication of Zion Chapel and the home­ coming of Community Cov­ enant was held in November 2019. “These two fine peopl • have been very active in ou community, and they wil be very much missed,” sai, Brenda Bailey.

Jeff Hursey peeks through the mouth of “Og,” one of the many wooden sculptures he has created off Pine Ridge Road in Davie County. - Photo by KC Smith Don’t call 911: it’s just Jeff Hursey’s creations By KC Smith For the Enterprise Jeff Hursey runs a success­ ful heating and air condition­ ing business in Davie County and those who know him would say he is a soft-spoken guy- I’ve never known Hursey to cause a ruckus about anything but his name has been spread all over the country and every­ one is talking. It started last year. People were calling the 911 emergency line to say they just saw Bigfoot. When the dispatcher asked if they were on Pine Ridge Road, they were told their call was one of many. That was the start of a viral reaction on Facebook when a picture of Hurseys's hand carved Bigfoot was posted and created national news - all the way to Anchorage Alaska. By owning a sawmill, Hursey has always messed around - carving stumps to look like owls, hobbit houses or small bears - but he had never done anything big.

Two of those have later tested negative for the virus. Four are still sick, as of Monday. Of the 29 cases, 10 are age 65 or older, eight are age 50- 64, seven age 25-49, two are age 18-24 and two are age 17 or younger. Stay at home orders contin­ ue through May 8.

Roy Cooper announced, which would be in late May with limited capacity. “The current order and clo­ sure of businesses has created a grea hardship on the business­ es of our community,” Cham­ ber President Caroline Moster wrote in a letter to County Manager John Eller and the county commissioners. "Our county consists almost entirely of small businesses. “I fear that many of our small business owners will have closed by that time, as some are already on life support. We have received calls and emails drom dozens of small business owners in the last two weeks who are burdened with the fear of closing their doors.” Please See CO VID - Page 6 Graduation plans in limbo; nominate a senior for speaker Would you like to help hon­ or a senior by providing them an opportunity to represent their class at graduation?

Davie among top 5 in NC for Census reporting By Jeanna Baxter White Word Master Media Group for Davie EDC Davie County made it into the top five counties in the state for Census reporting. “Number five is good but with a little more effort, I think we can make it to No. 1,” said Terry Bralley, president of the Davie County Economic De­ velopment Commission, urg­ ing Davie residents to respond to the Census and to encour­ age their friends, family, and co-workeri to do the same. “The census is a once-ev- ery-lO-year event. It’s critical that everyone is counted so that we aren’t at a loss for the next 10 years.” Over half of households have responded in all of North Carolina’s top-five respond­ ing counties. These counties are: Orange (56.8%), Union (56.6%). Wake (55.9%), Cha­ tham (54.3%), and Davie (51.9%). Resptonse in these highest-responding counties still lags behind self-response in the highest responding state of Mihnesota (60.4%). Histor­ ic self-response rates for Da­ vie County were 70 percent in 1990; 71 percent in 2000; and 68.1 percent in 2010. North Carolina’s ranking has fallen for the first time since re­ porting began. As of April 19, North Carolina ranked 38 out of 50 states and DC — a decline from last week’s ranking of 36. North Carolina’s current re­ sponse rate stands at 46.6 per­ cent of households. What is the number, in dol­ lars, associated with one indi­ vidual not being counted in the census? ' In North Carolina, that is a $23.8 billion question. Re­ becca Tippett, director of Carolina Demography at the Carolina Population Center at UNC-Chapel Hill, explained at a conference last June. “The George Washington In­ stitute for Public Policy recent­ ly published a series of memos regarding the fiscal impact of a census undercount. In FY2016, nearly $24 billion in federal funds were allocated to North Carolina through 55 programs guided by the 2010 Census. On a per-capita b5sis. this is more than $2,0(X) per NC resident, though it is hard to put a spe­ cific financial amount on the impact of any one person not being counted in the census.” When thinking about cen­ sus-derived funding and its impacts, there are two major consequences: North Caroli­ na’s fair share of the overall national pie of federal fund­ ing; and equitable allocation of this funding to communities in greatest need within the state. “When we talk about the Please See Census - I*aee 6 2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 30, 2020 Editorial Page Davie loses In The Mail.. two of its best residents Two of the people who have made Davie County great have left us over the past couple of weeks. Both held special places in my heart. Vena Harris was a woman before her time. A country girl who was thrust into a homemaker and more role at an early age, she learned how to work. It was out of necessity, but that ethic served her well over her life. She learned the value of work. She learned the rewards of work. And she reaped those rewards, most evident nowadays in her children and grandchildren, great­ grandchildren, nieces and nephews and others who just happened to cross her path. Vena Harris was tough, yet kind and gentle. Vena Harris was opinionated, but valued the opinions of oth­ ers, whether they agreed with her or not. A businesswoman? One of the first women, and one of the best. She and husband Roy built Davie Auto Parts into a successful business. Remember that work ethic? She practiced it there, and expected others to do the same. Actually, others wanted to follow her lead, that’s part of what made the business so successful. She also invested well. And those were the days when most women were either at home, teaching, nursing or working in a sew­ ing factory. Not many business office jobs for women back then. I remember her as chair of the planning board. She always treated everyone before the board with respect. She welcomed everyone’s comments, made them feel welcomed and wanted, whether their comments were off the wall or not. There weren’t a lot of women on appointed or elected boards back then, either. Her family was always her priority. You didn’t have to be around her long to realize that. She relished in bragging about their accomplishments. She loved those family get togethers. It wasn’t long before she fell ill that she was worried one holiday. It was a family tradi­ tion to have rabbit, and she didn’t have any and didn’t know where to find it. They found some rabbit. I hope they continue with that tradition. And those cards. Vena Harris believed in sending cards to people. We got one every anniversary, and on other occasions, as well. They were always thoughtful and encouraging. Yes, Vena Harris was a business woman before her time. And she was a woman who appreciated the old- fashioned idea that folks should be treated with respect. We need more people like her. ••• Edwin Boger was a farmer. That being said, anyone who has ever run a farm knows that also made him a mechanic, a conservationist, a businessman, a weather man, a veterinarian and more. The hours were long and hard, but he loved it. Boger was a dairy farmer back in the days when Da­ vie was filled with dairy farms. If he were still alive, I’m sure he could report the exact number of dairy farms in Davie County at its peak. And he could tell you the exact time when those dairies began to fail. He kept his farm running when many went by the wayside. It couldn’t have been easy. In addition to all of the other worries farmers had, the government got involved. His was a family farm, and it grew under his guid­ ance. I’m sure he had his moments, but I’ve never heard Edwin Boger get really mad at someone. He was once upset with something we had put in the newspaper, and let me know. Not by cussing me out like many do, but by pleading to my conscience with a tear in his eye. And he was right. We no longer - newspapers nation­ wide no longer - print what he was upset about. I loved talking to Mr. Boger, especially about farm­ ing. I had often thought about being a farmer, but my lack of skills in the above-mentioned job description, quickly nixed that idea. Yes, we need more people like Edwin Boger, too. - Mike Barnhardt Animal control needs scrutiny To the editor: It’s well-known that a great partnership can lead to great success. On June 5, 2017, the Humane Society of Davie County and Davie County Animal Services signed an op­ erational agreement, also known as the N.C. Davie County Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to reduce the eu­ thanasia rate. The MOU stated that DCAS would handle all animal intakes and basic vetting while the HSDC would be the sole adoption agency for the DC animal shelter. Since the partnership began, both organizations have co-existed in a facility at 291 Eaton Road in Mocksville. In addition to marketing and adoption management, HSDC has assisted with veterinary care, developing a strong foster program, and critical fundraising. Eisa Nielsen (current director of DCAS) was quoted in an Enterprise article on Dec. 28, 2017, as saying, “Thi.s has worked really well because we each do what we do best, with animal services getting the pets healthy and ready to be adopted, and the Humane So­ ciety marketing the pets and getting them adopted.” So, if it’s worked so well, why is DC Animal Services looking to terminate the partnership? It’s a question worth the county’s attention. Last week, HSDC announced they would be moving just a few minutes down the road on Main Street to a larger facility that would provide more space to help more ani­ mals, Then, on Friday, April 24, Davie County Animal Ser­ vices posted an announcement on Facebook: “Starting July 1,2020, all adoptions and rescue transfers from the Davie County Animal Shelter will be done by shelter staff.” This statement was a clear indication of their intention to termi­ nate the existing partnership with HSDC that has served our county so well over the last three years. The post went on to say they would be going back to the open adoption model recommended by The Humane Society of the Unit- . ed States. A.s I read this post, my heart sank for so many reasons that I feel compelled to share. Before I share my personal expterience, here are the facts: • In 2016 (prior to the HSDC partnership), DCAS eutha­ nasia rate was 53%. • According to the NC Department of Agriculture Shelter Report, in 2016 they spent an average of $218 per animal that was in their care. HSDC ha.s since helped defray medi­ cal costs, significantly reducing Davie County taxpayer burden. ■ On June 5,2017, the MOU was signed, and results were immediate. In 2018, 82% of all animals that came into the Davie shelter were saved. In 2019, 93% of all animals that entered the shelter were saved. • In 2019, pet adoptions totaled 674 (compared to only 364 in 2016 before the partnership). • The Humane Society of Davie County raised $86,684 for additional medical expenses for animals in the Davie County animal shelter in 2019 alone. Put another way, that is $86,684 that went toward the common goal - saving animals - that came through voluntary donations, not from taxes. • All animals that are adopted have a low adoption fee which includes spay/neuter and a microchip plus age-ap­ propriate shots. Again, I have to ask, why would DCAS seek to termi­ nate this successful partnership. And make no mistake, it is Davie County Animal Shelter seeking to dissolve the partnership. Last week's Enterprise article announcing the HSDC move to the larger facility included a statement from HSDC Executive Director Annie Vernier confirming the move was about getting into a larger space to serve more animals, not a move away from the partnership. My personal experience leads me to the conclusion that DCAS wants to return to its former ways — little to no oversight and minimal animal care. My family has rescued several dogs over the years, and our most recent adoption was one year ago through HSDC. It was thi.s adoption that led me to volunteer with HSDC and many hours spent in the Eaton Road facility observing both the HSDC staff and volunteers as well as the DCAS staff. HSDC has provided more than just marketing and fund.s — their volunteers are the reason the dogs are walked regularly, and all animals are socialized. As one of those volunteers, I can tell you that DCAS never seemed happy to have volunteers in the shelter — it was as if they did not appreciate the extra eye.s seeing what they weren’t doing for the animals. DCAS is not equipped to manage nor passionate about most, if not all, of the functions that HSDC ha.s been help­ ing managing. Their strength is intake and it stop.s there. We need both organizations working together, as they have been for three very successful years. If this partnership is terminated, animal treatment and care will decline, signifi­ cantly. Euthanasia rates will increase significantly. Adop­ tion rates will decrease significantly. We’ve already seen what DCAS is capable of with no oversight and assistance. Davie County deserves better — and we have had better since 2017. I am writing to encourage everyone to ask more questions about the real reasons why DCAS would terminate this partnership that, by the director’s own ad­ mission “has worked really well.” Heather Froelich, Mocksville Animal control costs will increase with change To the editor: I recently read a post about Davie County Animal Con­ trol moving to a larger space, adding personnel and relin­ quishing rights from the Davie County Humane Society. I was in disbelief. How could Davie County allow this to happen? This is not a positive move. In fact. Just the op­ posite. From my own experience, I would have to say that Davie County Animal Control really doesn’t care about the animals. Am I generalizing this statement to include ev­ eryone? No, I can’t rightfully do that. I can only pass this judgment on those I have encountered at the shelter. I am amazed at the work the Davie County Humane So­ ciety does for all the animals that pass through the shelter, whether animal control bring them in, families drop off or people find and bring by for homing. The men and women behind that organization spend countless,volunteer hours to make sure every animal is cared for medically, socially, and then homed to an appropriate family. The vetting pro­ cess is amazing. So amazing, that yes, families get turned down because they don’t feel like it is a good fit. Their goal is to make sure that animal is properly cared for. Then, lets add in the other HSDC volunteer’s that of­ fer their time to nurture and socialize these animals. Many times they are the ones cleaning the cages, walking/playing with the dogs and giving the cat.s time to roam and purr. They even get up in the early morning hours to start driv­ ing to Washington DC and Maryland to continue to save kittens and cats. Who does this? Those amazing Humane Society volunteers of Davie County. With the pandemic, HSDC has found fosters (many of those same people who volunteer at the shelter and more) for every fur baby need­ ing one. Plus, they are continuing to have adoptions while still being socially responsible. What would this picture look like if animal control was left in charge during these unprecedented times? Do they have the same relationships with all the volunteers that the HSDC has? Again, my ex­ perience only, the answer is no. The HSDC is transparent and in our world today a ne­ cessity in order to be successful. Because of their trans­ parency, the last I knew, they had raised over $86,000 in 2019 for medical care alone. Where is that money going to come from if they relinquish their rights? I believe in 2018, animal control only had a budget of $17,000 for medical expenses. That is a $69,000 deficit, if we use the medi­ cal expenses from those raised by the HSDC in 2019 for animals that needed it. Are taxpayers going to be held ac­ countable for these fees or i.s Davie County Animal Control going to go back to their best year yet of a 47 percent save rate in 2016? I believe after the Humane Society took over the save rate started to increase and by the end of 2019 was 93 percent. My last area of concern here would be where the money is coming from to hire a new body full time to manage the adoptions? Why would Davie County allow this ad­ ditional expense, especially in a time like we are in today to take this on? The current process is working. Offering more space to help the Humane Society is a nice thing to do. Let’s just stop it there. Keep the current relationship as is and continue to help the Humane Society get that save rate up.

POSTMASTER Send Address Changes to; Davie County Enterprise Record P.O. Box 99, Mocksville, NC 27028 To the editor: I am deeply concerned that Davie County Animal Ser­ vices (DCAS) has chosen to dissolve the partnership with the Humane Society of Davie County (HSDC) which has been operating as the sole adoption arm for the past three years. What a huge mistake to walk away from something that is working. When Davie County has a record high save rate of 93 percent because HSDC is so invested in the ani­ mals getting the right home, it truly baffles the community. DCAS’ new director even stated in the Davie Enterprise, “This has worked really well because we each do what we do best, with animal services getting the pets healthy and ready to be adopted, and the Humane Society market­ ing the pets and getting them adopted.” The irony in that statement has also left the community taxpayers to ponder what they are going to do without the help of HSDC which raised $86,684 to pay for additional medical expenses in­ curred by animals at the shelter. How much will DCAS’ budget change for increased staff and medical exjienses? Someone please help the large number of constituents understand how HSDC acquiring more space just a few miles down the road was perceived as a bad thing by DCAS? They can help now even more than before. We urge you to rethink this huge oversight in Judgment. Do not take away HSDC as the primary adoption agent of the animals that come into the Davie County shelter. This is a mistake that will cost lives and dollars.

Remove restrictions for the young and healthy To the editor: My opinion on re opening the economy. Seems every "important" medical person or politician is calling for more tests. Continue to test. More need.s to be known about this virus. But what is absolutely well known about this virus al­ ready? We know who is dying of this pandemic. Old people and sick people are the ones that are dying and filling our hospitals. 1 saw a report that in Italy, 95 per­ cent of the deaths were above 60 years old. Last report I saw, in the USA, 90 percent of the deaths are above 65 years old. Therefore, approximately five percent of the deaths are below 60. Most ofthe deaths below 60 are peo­ ple with health issues. Even among these older folks, most of the deaths are among those with underlying health is­ sues or the extremely old and frail. Who ain't dying of this pandemic"? People below 60 with no health issues. Yes, there are exceptions, but extremely Facebook post upsets local animal advocates To the editor: Like the many other Davie residents and animal advo­ cates who expressed frustration with Davie County Ani­ mals' post on their Facebook page (April 24) explaining they plan to rip adoptions away from the Humane Society of Davie County, I’m upset. On the heefs of the good news that the Humane Society of Davie County will be able to open another facility to care, socialize, and have commu­ nity involvement with Davie shelter animals, DCAS is choosing to take back a role that they’ve never been able to do nearly as well as HSDC. At DCAS’ peak, they had a 53 percent euthanasia rate in 2016. I’m sure everyone knows that the 2019 save rate thank.s to HSDC was 93 percent and that’s helping more animals than were adopted in 2016. It leaves you to wonder why they want to take back adoptions. Many have offered on thp DCAS Facebook page why that might be. A handful of unhappy volunteers have expressed that DCAS staff views their job as a county paycheck and caring for their animals is a check list from their first-hand experience. Anyone who has seen HSDC staff and board members in action knows that’s not the case. They have office hours, but they go above and be­ yond around the clock. They even were at the shelter on Christmas. Unpaid. DCAS for many many years was left down a long and winding dirt road alone. Why do they want to go back to the days of having no one else around? It makes you wonder. Nicole Wood Advance few. We want no one to die of this pandemic. But, we don't want anyone to starve later a.s a resulLs of the collapse of world-wide economies, including ours in the USA. Solution: reopen the economy now. Make it clear that old people and people with underlying conditions should take.care of themselves. Encourage this group to stay home and avoid people. Make it clear that no one has to go out, no one has to go back to work, no one ha.s to go to restau­ rants. Make it clear that people who appear to have the virus stay home or go to the hospital if sick enough. The oldest and sickest, probably need to self-quarantine until a cure or a vaccine is invented; or until the virus has run its course. But, set the young healthy folks free. Do it now. Would there be a second hump on the curve".’ Possibly, but if the old and the sick self-quarantine a second hump would make little difference and the herd immunity would fairly quickly come into play. .And the pandemic would probably fairly quickly become a bad memory. If you love your mom, or grandmom, encourage her to stay home and self-isolate. Same for dad or granddad. A massive campaign should flood the airways to educate, protect the old or sick people. But let the young and healthy be free. Let the young and healthy be free. Now.

Barnette As an amateur genealogist, I have spent many years re­ searching my family background. I will write more later about how that became my hobby, but for now it seems interesting and possibly helpful to draw a comparison of life 100 years ago to ours today. As a child, I spent a lot of time with my grandparents on Hartley Road and have written about how hard their lives seemed without electricity, running water, or telephones. Yet as they got older, they had those things even in the country. Thus, they were not always as cut off from others as their parents had been. So for my comparison, I will use my Hartley great- grandparents. Thomas Hartley and Eliza Young Hartley lived across the river in Davidson County. These days one can turn right at Tar Heel Q and wind around, making sev­ eral right turns until almost reaching the river. Now there are many homes and other buildings along the road, but when I was young and went with my parents and grandpar­ ents to the annual family reunions at the old home place, that whole area was remote. The roads were graveled and in some spots covered by canopies of trees. Think for a moment how life would have been in that area during a pandemic such as the flu epidemic of 1918. With large families, none of today’s amenities, and perhaps a son coming home from the war having been exposed to that flu, how would they have dealt with a major health crisis? Imagine having no doctors, no telephones or other means of communication, no modem medicines, no neigh­ bors within miles, and where the only way to have chicken soup to give to the sick person was to go outside, catch the chicken, kill it, and make the soup on a stove that burned firewood. Whether one lived or died in those days was a combination of good luck, good care, and the grace of God. The main thing the family could do was to isolate the sick person so that the other folks in the house would not be infected. Then they prayed. In Europe Dr. Alexander Fleming discovered penicil­ lin after the pandemic. That drug would have been very helpful for folks with flu and pneumonia. So a new medi­ cal discovery will likely happen after this pandemic also. Something good often comes out of something bad. Now even with all of our modem technology, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, medicines, and hospitals, we are in a similar situation to that of our great-grandparents. The en­ emy is a disease with no known treatment, no vaccine, no medicines, and seemingly more contagious than the flu of 1918. Although we don’t have to kill the chickens in order to get the soup, the grocery stores are always out of many of the items that we can normally find. So once again we have to stay at home and pray. Yet in every bad situation there are lessons to be learned. Perhap.s when we do get to break out of isolation, we might have re­ newed faith in God, a greater love for our families, friends and our fellowmen, and the workers in all area.s who kept us alive. We might even appreciate nature and our environ­ ment more than usual. Just as the Bible teaches, God never gives up on his people. It appears that we will have another opportunity to do things right!! “Things That Affect Us” By Kevin F. Wishon “Now, what have I come in this room for?’’ No doubt, you’ve asked yourself this question a few times in Just the last two months. You are not alone. Thankfully, from what I’ve read, it is probably not due to a decline in brain func­ tion. It’s infuriating to be working so diligently, step out of the room to get something, and bam, you can’t remember. Then you find yourself trying to rewind your memories to recall what it is you are supposed to be retrieving. What has happened? After reading some intriguing research about the brain, I have learned the answer. The reason we forget is that when a person leaves a room through an opening or doorway, our mind redirects its attention to its new surroundings. So, the next room entered with all of its distractions now overrides what’s in our short-term memory. This brings us to the next thing I have learned about the brain. Whatever that may be occurring around us and has our attention, usually, is foremost on our minds. This information explains why the brain forgets the item we leave the room to retrieve. The new room or space we enter gets our foremost attention, taking our minds off the task we have in progress. Another significant piece of information about the brain I’ve come across is how a mystery can fixate the mind. There’s something that appeals to the mind about an un­ resolved situation. You need only look to the Internet to see the multitude of videos regarding unexplained events, crimes, or accidental death.s with the posters trying to de­ termine what happened. Then there are also the TV shows that have entertained people with episodic mysteries for decades. Advertisers also seem to know this too. Remem­ ber those TV advertisement.s that end abruptly with the commercial directing you to go online to see how it will end? This type of ad is an appeal to the part of our brain that desires a satisfying conclusion. Lastly, knowing that what has our attention is foremost in our minds is a particularly important piece of knowledge these days. With the waterfall of news pouring over us con­ stantly, it is easy for the mind to become overwhelmed. Unless we step out of the deluge and focus on something else, we may find ourselves feeling unwell, anxious, or up­ set. Life is more than whatever or whoever, excluding our families, is trying to grab and hold our attention. “A Handbook for Learning ” By Stephanie Williams Dean We all could stand to learn a thing or two — the way a scout learned to learn. Recently, a friend asked me to go through some of her old books to see if there were any in which I might have an interest. Among the ones 1 brought home, my favorite was a 1929 revised edition of an old Girl Scout Handbook initially published in 1920. When young, I participated in scouting as a member of Writer’s Guild both a Brownie and later, a Girl Scout troop. What a broad baseline of knowledge scouting afforded me. Others have often referred to me as l^ing “well rounded.’’ There’s no doubt that a wide range of interests was due to exposure to many topics as a young scout. Honesty, I believe I learned more practical knowledge in scouting than I did in school. As I thumbed through the book, I was reminded of the opportunities for receiving merit badges. There were mul­ tiple offerings in various categories with corresponding requirements and references for each. The knowledge re­ quired to achieve a badge was impressive. This list repre­ sents a few of my interests - The Arts — artists, journalist, scribe, craftsman, photog­ rapher, dressmaker, needlewoman The Art of Housekeeping — housekeeper, handy woman, laundress. Culinary Art — canner, cook, hostess The Natural Environment — insects, garden flowers, birds, tree finder, wildflower finder, rock finder, land ani­ mal finder, water life, and star finder Caring for Others — child nurse, first aid, home nurse, health winner, life saver Other badge opportunities were for international knowl­ edge, foreign language interpreter, telegrapher, business woman, and citizen. Plus more. Let’s take a close look at the proficiency level of just one of these badges — the tree finder, for instance. To earn the merit badge — one must know the part.s of the tree. Know 25 trees and shrubs when in leaf. Know at least 10 of those by bud, leaf scars, and bark. Know something of the life history and life processes of trees. Be able to read the age of a tree by its ring and recent growth by the twigs. Plant at least one tree that you have raised from the seed. Dem­ onstrate how trees should be pruned, trimmed, and breaks mended. How trees are to be protected from insect and fun- gu.s diseases. Make a list of woods and their uses. Know the best trees to plant in the streets, in small gardens, and about the school. Pretty extensive requirements, would you agree? How many readers can identify the trees in your yard? So while on lockdown, I propose a simple project. 1 sug­ gest we engage in a study. Identify the trees growing on our property. Take samples of the bark and compare. Examine the different leaves. Do plant one flowering tree this spring — I suggest a beautiful Kwanzan Cherry. You’ll be glad you did in the years to come. Be sure to read the planting guide­ lines that come with the tree, staying away from the house and power lines (like I didn’t - whoops). Alway.s plant following directions; to prevent overgrowth and topping, which is not healthy for the tree. Allow trees to grow natu­ rally by initially planting them in the most suitable spot.

HSDC ha.s chosen to relocate as they need more space. It has been beneficial for both parties to work out of the same location; however, a 20x20 room is not sufficient for HSDC needs. I would like for everyone to be heavily informed of the numbers in­ volved and why DCAS needs to continue to let HSDC run their adoptions. Let's start with the year 2016, the eutha­ nasia rate at DCAS was 53 percent. That means more than half the animal.s that came to the shelter were euthanized. The first year HSDC partnered with DCAS, the euthanasia rate dropped to 18 percent. That is huge. Over the last few years of partnering, the save rate is now a whopping 93 per­ cent. Can DCAS do that alone? Absolutely not and it has been proven that they can't. They run on a small number of county employees that are not animal enthusiasts. They do not spend time working with the animals, socializing them, photographing them outside a cage where their true personality can be seen, they don’t even walk the dogs on the weekends. While partnering with HSDC, the animal.s had better care than they ever received by DCAS. They get shuffled from cage to cage or run to run. How would you feel locked in a cage and not seeing the blue sky or grass? HSDC has volunteers that pride themselves on spending time with these animal.s so that they may be socialized and appealing to a family of individual that is wanting to adopt. Look at the photos and videos of the pet.s on the HSDC Facebook page and compare them to the photos on the DCAS page. Sad. Just sad. HSDC also has marketing and social media volunteers, foster homes, donors, and fund­ raisers throughout the year so that the animals of the shelter can have medical treatment and for spay/neuter programs. Do you know what DCAS had available for medical funding for their pets in 2018? A big $17k. That is deplor­ able. With the partnership of HSDC, medical funding sky­ rocketed to S87k in 2019. That funding allowed for more Lawncare & Landscaping Mowing Fertilizing Mulching Pine Straw Hedge Trimming Stump Grinding Garden Prepping Gioite. 704-437-1552 animals to be saved. My point is, this is the worst that could happen to the animal.s and the community of Davie County. All of us that have volunteered our time, donated, fostered animals, need thi.s to brought to the attention of the county officials and the decision for DCAS to sever tie.s with HSDC needs to be reconsidered. If they proceed with doing so, expect to see the euthanasia rate go through the roof. All DCAS does is bring the animals in and toss them in a cage. How do they expect them to get adopted or reclaimed with no media, marketing, fundraisers, fosters, donors, etc? All the things that HSDC offers to DCAS and the com­ munity is what has kept this operation flowing smoothly. DCAS also mentioned opening up the parameters set by HSDC for adoption, meaning basically for a small fee, any­ one can take home a pet from there. Would you do that for children'.’ Just let anyone adopt? What if they have small children and the cat or dog isn't good with kids? What if they have a violent or abusive history'.’ What if they are testing out dogfighting'.’ What if they never have their animals vetted, or intend to be a backyard breeder? What will that do'.’ It will drive up the euthanasia rate is exactly what it will do. Because they will not have the funds, me­ dia accessibility, volunteers, or parameters that the HSDC ha.s to keep the adoption rate up and the euthanasia rate down. All you need to do is look at the announcement on the DCAS Facebook page and the comments to see how upset the taxpaying residents of Davie County are about this change. I beg you to open up this story and have the county officials reconsider. I myself, foster through HSDC. I took the last dog the weekend the government buildings were shut down. She had been there two months and over­ looked. DCAS wanted to euthanize her. A little terrier mix a little over a year old. Volunteers at HSDC worked with her and made the cutest videos and photos of her. She would have been another DCAS statistic had I not taken her and fostered her. She is now flourishing in a new home with a new family. After Winnie, that was her name, I was contacted about a senior female pit mix that had spent her life on a chain and bred her whole life. She was picked up by DCAS, surrendered by her family, filthy, in need of medical care, and completely shut down. DCAS wanted to euthanize her. HSDC stepped in and took over her care, as they have the funding to do so. She is now with me, and knows what love is and ha.s a comfy dog bed, with good food, and a teenage boy that loves her. Again, Roxey would have just been another dog euthanized by DCAS because her potential was overlooked and they didn't want to deal with her medical needs, and she is a senior. There are folks out there, like myself, that want to advocate and help these animals. DCAS does not need to handle their adoptions. The last two dog.s I spoke of were going to be euthanized had HSDC not stepped in. Now they have lov­ ing homes. Between the numbers and the plea.s of the sup­ porters of HSDC, 1 don't know what more needs to be said. Kerri Humphrey Lewisville What’s the real reason behind animal control’s statement? To the editor; In 2016, Davie County Animal Services’ (animal con­ trol) euthanasia rate was 53 percent. According to the NC Department of Agriculture Shelter Rep>ort, they spent $218 per animal in their care on average. An animal coming into the Davie shelter had less than a 50 percent chance of being adopted. In 2017 the Humane Society of Davie County and the Davie County Animal Services signed an operational agreement to try and better serve the animals of our com­ munity. The partnership agreed that Davie County Animal Services would do all animal intakes and basic vetting while the Humane Society of Davie County would be the sole adoption agency for the shelter. Improvement.s were seen within the first year of incep­ tion. In 2018, the save rate of the animals taken into the Davie shelter wa.s 82 percent overall. In 2019, 93 percent of all animals that entered the Davie shelter had a save rate of 93 percent overall. In 2019 pet adoptions totaled 674 (compared to only 364 before the partnership in 2016). The Humane Society of Davie County also transported animals in 2019 to partner rescues, which totaled 846 animals (721 were cats) that were saved. Before the partnership, in 2016 Department of Agriculture Shelter Report shows that 381 cats were euthanized out of 521. If you are looking at why Davie County Animal Services is dissolving the partnership, it makes no sense a.s an ani­ mal advocate. Look at it also as a taxpayer. The Humane Society of Davie County raised $86,684 for additional medical expenses for the animals in the Davie shelter. If Davie County Animal Services has a dual function again a.s the animal control and adoption arm — what is the cost per anima) now and will they be able to save as many as the Humane Society of Davie County did? 'With zero evidence to substantiate that Davie County Animal Services has ever done it on their own, why would now be different? How many more staff will be needed ? Something isn’t adding up. We want to know the real reason the county wants to take back all control over the animals when the county shelter is now no-kill and saving money while doing it. Susan Whitener * ' Advance CLINTSONES CAR Jeff Hursey with his Bigfoot, which caused some motorists on Pine Ridge Road to call 911; and inside his Flinstone’s car. Bigfoot... Continued From Page 1 He saw a concrete bear near Dobson on the side of the road and it gave him the idea to carve one - but bigger. The Big Foot stump measured nine feet from the bottom to the top. He had tacks for hi.s eyes and they were covered with red reflective tape. Drivers passing by at night surely got an unexpected surprise. He admits it took him a while practicing to turn something out that looked decent. Using a smaller saw with different tips help.s create the details he needs. Not a lot of planning prepares him for the next project, he uses what he has on hand and once he get.s it in his mind what he thinks he can do with it, he goes for it. Sometimes he bums the wood for accents and often preserves the wood with used oil. The Flintstone car he made looks like an exact replica. Not everything he does is chainsaw carving - but more sculpture. Last September, I drove by the site not knowing about the national interest and 1 wa.s quite alarmed when 1 saw a huge spider with legs stretched over the split rail fence with orange fangs. He wa.s looking right at me and it gave me the sense he was coming straight toward me. A big web wa.s hanging behind his back. Hursey had a lot of slabs lying around and decided to build a giant. Og the Giant is 20 feet tall from his head to his bottom and another 20 feet for his legs and feet. His broad shoulders, long arms, big feet and hand.s have good propKirtioned scale. Positioned between two strong pine trees for increased stability and strength, he appear.s to have been strolling through the pine trees and decided to have a sit down. With his left arm resting casually on his leg it poses a calm demeanor - just a big guy ready for someone to stop for a chat. Evergreen branches were used to create his hair and beard and the now aged brown tones make it more lifelike. Many people who stop by to visit the site like to climb the stairs inside Og the Giant so they can put their face in the hole of his mouth for a picture. Hursey’s wife Rebecca suggested he call the giant Og because it made her think of the giant in the Bible, Og king of Bashan; his bed was 9 cubic feet by 4 cubic feet. A large new structure wa.s facing the setting sun and when 1 walked around I couldn’t help but get excit­ ed about what the finished structure will look like A 35- by 43-foot pirate ship ha.s been completed. Inside the hull is a picnic table, portholes to look through and who knows what else Hursey'.s creative mind conjured up. Embel­ lishing the structure with flags and all pirate para­ phernalia will for sure be a showstoppcr. When you combine a creative mind with re­ sources like strong hands, a sawmill, a chain saw and mostly wooded acreage, there’,s bound to be more to come in the future. “I’m doing while 1 can. I’m able to do it but when I get the notion to stop, I'm done, 1 won’t do it any­ more,” he said. A gate is located at the entrance but Hursey welcomes visitors to get out and walk around to take pictures. A bench is located at the information area that displays a small fraction of articles from different states. Who knew a Bigfoot creature carved from a stump could create such a ruckus and excitement. Thank you Hursey for put­ ting Cooleemee on the map. The sculptures are off Pine Ridge Road in south­ ern Davie County.

Many of them do not qualify for loans, others have been un­ able to obtain unemploy­ ment benefits. “We are committed to doing our part to help curate a.s many resources for our leaders and community as possible. Each day, we fear this is simply not enough.” While the governor’s orders supercede county ac­ tion, she urged the county to use its power to advocate for small businesses at the state level. “Getting our local econ­ omy back open is vitally critical to the welfare of our businesses,” Moser wrote. “We simply want to ensure that in the onslaught of me­ dia focus on those who have fallen ill or died of COVID 19, we are also reverently observing the full impact of thi.s crisis to the rest of the population.” Census ...

He had a heart of gold underneath the tough persona he carried and would do anything for anyone; especially his children and grandchildren who he loved unconditionally.

By Brian Pitts Davie Enterprise Record Davie varsity baseball fans were wondering whether the War Eagles could generate enough offense without injured McKenzie Willoughby to remain a contender in the Central Piedmont Confer­ ence. Sure enough, Davie managed a meager two runs in the first game without its second-strongest stick. The slow attack, though, was nothing pitcher Lonnie Barnes couldn’t overcome. The senior righthander stymied West Forsyth on three hits, pitched into the seventh inning and delivered a stirring 2-0 upset on April 23 in Clemmons that forged a first-place tie in the CPC standings. Just when life couldn't get much better, the War Eagles squandered a 2-0 lead at South Rowan, which charged ahead on an inside-the- park home run and forced a second-place tie with Davie by prevailing 4-3 on April 26. Before Davie swallowed that bitter pill, Barnes authored one of the greatest moments in recent Davie history. How impressive was his six innings of shutout ball? The Titans strutted in with a 14-1 record, a No. 6 ranking in the 4-A poll and an offense that whipped through Page with 18 hits. “Not having Willoughby to swing the bat, you were saying: ‘Uh- oh, what are we going to do?’” coach Mike Herndon said. "The key to everything was Barnes. He wa.s incredible. When they thought he wa.s going to throw a fastball, he’d throw a curve. When they thought he was going to throw a curve, he threw a fastball. And he mixed in a changeup.” Although the Titans put baserunners on in every inning but the second, they were held to two solid hit.s. A Barnes gem is nothing unusual. He is 5-1 with a 1.73 ERA. “Lonnie was amazing again,” catcher Doug Smith said. West’s pitching wasn’t exactly shabby. Davie only had four hits, but a third-inning blow by the incredibly-torrid Andrew Daywalt proved to be enough when Cody Wright slammed the door in relief. “I didn’t care how we got the win, but I was going to win the game somehow no matter what I had to do,” Barnes said. “This ranks very near the top because we play with these guy.s all summer (in American Legion) and I Just wanted to beat them so bad. “I always pitch better when I face a real good team because I’m pumped up - unreal pumped up. 1 love pitching big games. This and East Rowan pump.s up right about the same.” Josh Golding, who drew three walks to give him a team-leading 18 in 18 games, took ball four and scored the first run on Daywalt's double. After Davie (13-5,4-1 CPC) failed to break West’s back in the fifth - it loaded the bases with one out but came up empty - Smith punched a single up the middle to make it 2-0 in the sixth. Smith has been terrific behind the plate, but like several strug­ gling teammates he’d not done much with the bat. He timed his breakthrough perfectly. “Doug did a great job behind the plate, and boy, did he come up big,” Herndon said. “To go up two was big - real big.” “Coach spread my stance out to keep me back on my back foot,” Smith said. “The first couple at-bats, I still didn’t get a hit but you could tell the difference. And then I finally got one. All the guy.s were saying: ’Could you think of a better time to start hitting?’” Smith’s insurance hit became magnified in the bottom of the seventh, when West chased a worn-out Barnes. After inheriting two runners and promptly walking the ba.ses full, Wright showed off his overpowering fastball, striking out the 1-2 batters in the order and coaxing an infield fxjpup from star Erik Walker. Five Titans were Mocksville Legion member.s last summer: Walker, Cody Crotts, Brad Bullard, Joe Brewer and Casey Stanley. “They were just a pop fly from going ahead,” Herndon said of the short-porch dimension.s at West. "Cody wa,s pumped up and throwing the (heck) out of it,” Notes: Daywalt doubled twice, reached all four times and lifted hi.s average to .5(X) in 56 at-bats. ... Daniel Hollifield got the job done in hi.s first outing a.s Willoughby’s replacement, singling, stealing a base and playing a solid second base. "We hate to lose McKenzie and this team need.s McKenzie, but also it gives somebody else an opportunity,” Herndon said. “Daniel i.s a perfect example. He stepped up.” ... Willoughby strained his MCL and could be done. The best-case scenario is a return for the CPC Tournament. "It’s not tom, which is a blessing,” Herndon said. ... Brandon Gentry wa.s a hard-luck O for 3, just missing two home runs. officially ended The 2020 high school spring sport.s season is officially over. The N.C. High School Athlet­ ic Association (NCHSAA) has canceled all remaining winter championship.s and spring sport.s. “Today’s decision i.s difficult for the NCHSAA board and staff. We empathize with the thousands of student-athletes, especially grad­ uating seniors, coaching staffs,of­ ficials and family members,” said Commissioner Que Tucker. This reflects a commitment to keeping our student-athletes, officials and member schools’ staffs and their communities safe, while following guidelines provided by the gover­ nor and his team, along with the Department of Public Instruction and the State Board of Education. We had maintained hope for a conclusion to our state basketball championships and a modified spring sports season to help return a sense of normalcy. Now, as we continue to deal with thi.s difficult time, we must do so by applying the lesson.s that education-based athletics teaches us: cooperation, patience, sacrifice, responsibility, perseverance and resilience,” The board of directors will dis­ cuss the state basketball playoffs, policies for summer activities, a.s well as address academic eligibil­ ity concerns for fall 2020, j 1 S.

Oct. 15, 1987 South wins thriller over North with reverse to Chapman By Ronnie Gallagher Enterprise Record Sam Beck and his North Davie freshman football team found out just what kind of player Alan Chapman is in South Davie’s 8-0 squeaker over the visiting Wildcats. "Chapman is an outstanding athlete,” Beck said. “He hurt us on defense and offense, as well as with his kicking.” South coach Grimes Parker has known that all along. When he needed big plays, he turned to his leader. Chapman scored the win­ ning touchdown with 1:32 remaining on an 11 -yard run and lifted South’s record to 3-1. North came in flying high at 3-0. “It was an emotional game. just like they all are between us,” Parker said. “North Davie has a very good team.” Beck returned the compliment. “I feel like both teams are good and we’ll be sending the high school another class of good play­ ers next year.” North actually controlled the ball for much of the game, but pen­ alties halted many of the drives. The opening march was an indi­ cation of how the game would progress. The Wildcats took the opening kickoff from their own 38 to the Tiger 15 before the drive stalled due to crucial penalties. “Penalties killed us,” Beck said. “Every time we’d really get something going, we’d be knocked back 15 yards.” While the penalties hurt, there was also this: North’s passing game ^jvas null and void. After I averaging 125 yards through the air in the first three games, quar­ terback Patrick Murphy was 0 for 7 with two interceptions. "We put a lot of pressure on Patrick,” Parker said. “Shoot, we know what a good quarterback he is. But our defensive ends, Ger­ main Mayfield and Tim Chaffin, did a heck of a job. Patrick had to scramble a lot.” Parker also praised defensive backs Chapman, Anthony Chunn, Gary Blalock, Jeff Spry, Kevin Wi­ ley and Kevin Howell. Chapman and Chunn had the interceptions. North really didn’t need its passing game the way Robin Campbell and Owen Freuler were producing on the ground. The Wildcats ran up 216 yards rush­ ing - 114 by Campbell and 62 by Freuler. “I wa.s surprised that they ran so well,” Parker said. “All I had heard about was their passing.” South was the passing team on this day a.s Brent Wall won the battle of the QBs, completing 5 of 8 for 100 yards. South threatened occasionally, once reaching the Wildcat 1-yard line on a 34-yard pass from Wall to Chapman. But a fumble negated the scoring opportunity. Finally, South got the ball at the North 38 with under two minute.s left, and the wishbone cranked out a score in seven plays. Mayfield made two key runs and caught a 16-yard pass deep in North territory. South was facing third-and-goal from the 11 when Parker called his favorite play, the end-around to Chapman. “He can throw it if he wants,” Parker said. “But as soon as he got the ball, he tu^ced it in. He was running all the way and was very determined to get in.” Chapman dove into the end zone, and Wall hit Wiley for the two-point conversion. North had one more oppor­ tunity, but Chapman picked off Murphy with 42 seconds remaining. It was a defensive struggle all the way as North’s defend­ ers came up with three fumble recoveries. Joey Sloan, Jon Myers and Murphy all pounced on loose balls. “We dodged a few bullets,” North defensive coordinator Ron Kirk said. “It’s very frustrating,” Beck said. “A break here or there could have made a difference. But we just couldn’t get into our offense. South outplayed us.” B2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 30, 2020 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 30,2020 - B3 Jan. 23, 1992 Ward, Williard break basketball scoring records By Ronnie Gallagher Davie Enterprise Record He scored 40 points. He commanded every aspect of the game. He controlled the boards. He was in the right place at the right time. It was one of those games you dream about. South Davie freshman boys basketball coach Clyde Studevent wasn’t talking about Christian Laettner. He was talking about his inside force Josh Ward, who ripped Chestnut Grove with a 40-point performance. The 6-0 Ward broke the school’s single-game scoring record and led South to an easy 73-53 victory. “Josh had one of those days where he did everything right,” Studevent said. “He scored on rebounds, layups and short jumpers. I was proud of his jump shooting. That’s something that is coming along.” Ward and Jonathan Vaughters powered South to a 24-5 lead, the duo combining for 17. “There’s no doubt that Vaughters can play,” Studevent said. “He’s real steady. He’ll make something happen by driving to the paint. He has good body control.” No one could control Ward. At halftime South led 33-24, by which point Ward had 14. In the third quarter, he upped his total to 23. In the fourth, he scored 17 of South’s 19 to claim the record. (The old scoring record at South was set last year by Derrick Wilson, who had 39.) “We were way ahead and I was going to take him out,” Studevent said. “But I saw how he was scoring and figured he had a chance at the record - so I left him in.” Vaughters finished with 15. Matt Anderson had 10 and Scott Van Hoy seven for the Tigers (5-3). Williard Sets Record Two weeks after Ward’s explosion, the scoring record for North Davie’s girls fell. Coach Ricky Hendrix watched his North freshman girls set a school single-game scoring record in a 76-34 rout of West Alexander. Then he watched the Wildcats break it Jonette Williard scored a record 37 points in a game. At right, Josh Ward broke a record with 40.

Alexander game, Williard made sure everyone knew quickly that a scoring record was about to fall. She scored 21 of her team’s 25 in the first quarter. By halftime, it was 51-16.

As owner of Perkins Roofing in Mocksville, Jesse treats each roof as if it was on his own home. If it isn’t good enough for him, it will not be good enough for you. That is the way Jesse treats each roofirig job and customer. His work and integrity speak for itself. Jesse, a Reidsville native, became interested in roofing when he was just 13 years old. At age 17, the summer before graduating from high school, he began helping his brother in the roofing business. Af­ ter graduating the next year, Jesse moved to Davie County and has been here since. After years of working for other roofers, Jesse de­ cided it was time to go out on his own. So, in the fall of 1997, he started Perkins Roofing. “I have been roofing most of my life and that’s what I love to do,” Jesse explains. “I started out with a lad­ der, hatchet and pick-up truck.” Now, along with roofing, Jesse has added vinyl sid­ ing to his line of work. “I work with several local contractors on new homes and do tear offs for older homes that need a new roof. I have done some repair work but we just don’t have that many bad storms around here to do too much damage for roof repairs,” Jesse notes. Jesse takes a great deal of pride in his work and will work however many hours and days it takes to get the job finished and done right. “I keep my business somewhat small. That way I can be on the job to see what goes on and make sure the job is completed like it would be for someone in my family.” Perkins Roofing also enjoys giving back to the com­ munity. They are involved in various fund raisers including the law enforcement and rescue squad.

CLASSIFIEDS WORK for YOU! •A B8 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 30, 2020 Congressman joins students on Google Hangout Hi Congressman Ted Budd met through Google Hang­ outs last week with two of Shane Young’s personal finance • classes at Davie County High School. These two classes have been participating in the Capitol Hill Challenge as part of the Stock Market Game. Out of more than 2.200 participants across the nation, the students in these classes have two teams ranked 34th and 48th in the nation in the Stock Market Game, which ends May 8. As a Davie native and Davie County High School graduate, donning his Davie County High School hat, Budd shared childhood sto­ ries and spoke to students about what inspired him to join public service. He answered questions from students about what it is like being a congressman, how his role has changed during the pandemic and what he sees as opportuni­ ties for the country down the road. He addressed funding small businesses, small business loans and how to plan for the future. He ex­ pressed his appreciation for the President’s leadership. Young and Budd stressed to students how vital it is to make sound financial deci­ sions throughout their lives and the importance of being a lifelong learner. The approximately 40 students were joined on the call by Elizabeth Dews, dep­ Confused? T&G. ShipLap. Rough Sawn. Dressed. Clear. Kiln Dried. -, Edge & Center Bead. Knotty. . Air Dried. C&Btr.
