HouseMaster home inspec-tion business is now open in Polk County.

Robert Talbert of Tryon, who has extensive experience in construction, says he was in-spired to open a HouseMas-ter franchise after his daughter had a negative experience with home inspectors when buying her first home. He saw a definite need in the marketplace and answered the growing demand for home inspection services by opening HouseMaster.

Located in Tryon, the new franchise will serve The Foothills of North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina, markets Talbert says have a definite need for home inspection services.

“It’s necessary for residents to have access to qualified home

inspectors,” said Talbert. “At HouseMaster, we have raised the standards for home inspection, taking pride in our work and holding ourselves accountable for each project we complete.”

HouseMaster provides home buyers and sell-ers an indepen-dent, third-par-ty, professional evaluation of the condition

of the major elements of a home. From interior systems such as plumbing and electrical to exte-rior components like the roof and siding, HouseMaster’s guaran-teed home inspections include the evaluation of all visible and ac-cessible elements of the home.

HouseMaster also conducts new construction, commercial property and foreclosure inspec-tions, among other services.

For more information, call Robert Talbert at 877-799-9234 or visit www.housemaster.com.

The crew at PRO Physical Therapy sports their new physical therapy month T-shirts. They will wear the T-shirts every Friday in October to celebrate National Physical Therapy Month. The business is also offering on Fridays give-aways, coupons and a community scavenger hunt to mark the month. (photo submitted)

In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month,

St. Luke’s Hospital is sponsoring free breast exams. Our

goal is to screen women who do not have the opportunity

to be screened otherwise. Women with no insurance or

who do not have a regular doctor are perfect candidates.

Dr. Celeste Wiltse and Dr. Sandra McCormack will provide the breast exams and

will be available for any questions. Tours, information on mammography and referrals

Fundraising specialist joins Pavillon Treatment Center 

Ushering in a greater focus on providing financial aid to those without means to pay for addiction treatment, Pavillon Treatment Center has hired Lynn Killian Neill, an accomplished fundraising professional with more than 30 years of fundrais-ing expertise, as its new direc-tor of community relations and development.

Neill, a long time resident of Hendersonville, comes to Pavil-lon with an extensive background in effective fundraising. She has generated impressive financial support for many organizations including Park Ridge Hospital, the Hendersonville Symphony Orchestra, African Medical Mis-sion, Wake Forest University and United Way of Henderson County.

Prior to providing fundraising consultation to a variety of area non-profit organizations, she was executive director of Park Ridge Hospital Foundation in Fletcher for 13 years. She also served as general manager to the Hender-sonville Symphony Orchestra for six years and continues to perform with the organization

and volunteer.She has earned the designa-

tion of Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE), which is held by fewer than 5,000 profes-sionals worldwide. Her profes-sional memberships include the North Carolina Council on Planned Giving, the Association of Healthcare Philanthropy and the Association of Fundraising Professionals.

Along with the board of direc-tors, campaign volunteers and CEO Anne Vance, Neill will direct Pavillon’s ambitious upcoming capital campaign, its first major fundraising effort since opening in 1996. The Giving Back, Going Forward Campaign to Restore Lives & Rebuild Families will be launched in November.

As an integral part of Pavil-lon’s three-year strategic plan, the campaign will provide resources to increase access to addiction treatment, strengthen programs, upgrade clinical treatment areas and enhance campus facilities.

“Our goal is to ensure that Pavillon’s high quality treatment

Lynn Killian Neill (left) and Laura S. Pocock will lead Pavillon's capital campaign, which will be launched in November. (photo submitted)

is made accessible to those who need it regardless of financial limitations,” Vance explained. “With objectives such as this, we wanted to bring in someone who could embrace our vision and effectively compel others to support the very important work that we do here to rebuild lives from addiction. We believe with Lynn’s professional background and sincere enthusiasm, we have such a person.”

Neill, along with Laura S. Pocock, will be on the front lines, coordinating all aspects of the campaign. Pocock is also an accomplished fundraising profes-sional with strong ties to Ruther-ford and Polk counties. She is one of the founders of KidSenses InterActive Children’s Museum, where she served as president

for ten years. She joined Pavil-lon in 2009 as associate director of development, and has been instrumental in garnering ad-ditional financial support for the children’s program and the scholarship fund.

Letter to the EditorParty jumping is inTo the Editor:

In the footsteps of Joe Lieber-man, we’ve had local candidates jump from their party in an at-tempt to survive in a tough time for politicians. Warren Watson says he wants it to be very clear that the reason he left the Demo-cratic Party was what he said in his letter of 3-1-2010 and not what anyone else has stated. Warren said: “Once political candidates become “elected of-ficials,” it is imperative that they take on a different role. To be effective, I believe that elected officials must put aside political affiliations in order to best represent the interests of all citizens.”

I guess this explains the inef-fective leadership of every Presi-dent since George Washington. If only we’d elected Presidents who were unaffiliated we might have become a great country. Warren’s

argument sounds reasonable until you realize that the only politicians who leave their party are those in trouble and trying to survive.

One disadvantage of being an unaffiliated “elected official” is that you soon become an “unaffil-iated candidate.” With no organi-zation doing fund raising you are forced to go after big donations. I can’t wait to see who is donating, it should be interesting. Of course after watching these two for four years, I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for an honest accounting of where their money has come from. They’ve already shown that they don’t play by the rules, will say anything and remember only what they want.

This year, in our local Demo-cratic Party our big fundraiser is a pancake breakfast we are holding the 3rd Saturday of each month. This way we have hundreds of $5.00 donations fi-nancing our candidates. We feel small donations keep candidates independent. We recruit them, we

support them but we don’t tell them how to do their jobs, that is up to them.

Who will represent everyone equally and who will cater to a few? The candidates funded by a few large donors, or those funded by hundreds of small donations? The party candidates know that their party will still be there in four years. The unaffiliated will be looking for their next large donor.

Now I’d like to respond to Mr. Melton. Why did I bring up the “Big Snakes” story now? Because you are running for re-election now and I want people to know who you are.

Why didn’t I identify my “supporters” who called about Park St?

Because they asked me not to put their names in the paper as they run a business. However Tommy, you know who they are. They came to me, because they had asked you “why the county paid $95,000 for a property that was offered for $75,000” and you

told them you would get back to them. They are still waiting. They are Republicans and asked you at a Tea Party rally, ring any bells?

On back room deals, the only reason the closed ses-sion minutes were released was because I asked for them to be released. I didn’t miss that article, I requested it! The NC statutes define what can be done in closed sessions; the minutes confirm that the statutes were not followed.

What is wrong with politics in our country is that many politi-cians get power happy, never admit when they are wrong and just lie about everything. The voters are guilty of not paying at-tention and then being fooled by the lies. We can’t cure the guilty politicians, they are never going to change, but we can be better informed voters. Don’t be fooled in November, vote for ethical, honest politicians only. That is what I’m going to do.

Jackson, Underwood to discuss memoirs and more at PCPL

Jim Jackson and Gloria Un-derwood grew up about 15 miles apart, he in Tryon, she in Cam-pobello. They attended gram-mar school in their respective communities. They went to rival colleges in South Carolina; he at-tended the Citadel for two years; she graduated from Furman University.

They never met. Jackson was working in his family’s business, Cloth of Gold, attending Oberlin Seminary, and hitch-hiking across America. Underwood was teaching high school French and English, getting a PhD at the University of South Carolina, and grading papers. Several decades apart.

Their paths finally converged in August, 2008, when Under-wood gave a presentation about her work as a personal historian. Having begun work on his mem-oirs 20 years earlier, Jackson was interested in the topic. At the en-couragement of Tracey Daniels,

Jackson approached Underwood about compiling his memoirs into a book.

This was two weeks before Election Day 2008, and Jim was trying to get both Barack Obama and Ray Gasperson elected. After many detours, several interviews and many cups of coffee at the Trade Street Galley Coffeehouse, the two formalized Jackson’s memories with “My Life in the Briar Patch, The Memories of James Chapman Jackson.”

Join us on Thursday, October 14, at 6 p.m. in the Polk Coun-ty Public Library Community Meeting Room as Jackson and Underwood discuss the process of working together to create this book. Jackson will also share stories about growing up in Tryon and hitch-hiking across America.

This event is free and open to the public.

Once upon a time, not

so long ago, a local couple

happened upon a skinny

little Appaloosa mare in a

dirt lot. Her owner no longer

wanted to trail ride her; she

wasn’t needed any more.

Luckily this couple knew

a few things about horses

and decided to take her

home with them and find

the little mare a new family.

Some extra food, good grass

and a few trail rides later this

couple put an ad up in the

local feed store.

At this very same time, a

sweet “horse crazy” young

girl had convinced her

parents to let her take some

riding lessons. She caught

the bug and now dreamed of

having her own horse. After

some poking and prodding

her parents answered an ad

they found at the local feed

store: an Appaloosa mare –

for sale! The little girl, whose name

is Amanda, met the little

mare, who’s name is Nia,

and as most dreams happen

(when they come true) it was

destined they be together.

One man's trash is another's treasure

Amanda started to take

lessons from a local profes-

sional. After about six weeks

of lessons Amanda and Nia

entered the Foothills Riding

Club Horse Trial at FENCE

where they won their dres-

sage class and successfully

completed the cross-country

course and stadium jump-

ing. They ended up high

point!Amanda Morfino on her new horse Nia, with Renée and Nick Morfino. (photo submitted)

The Tryon Parks Committee has encouraged Tryon Fine Arts Center to remove them for this reason. The area between the crepe myrtles will be covered with mulch, matching the rest of the Melrose Avenue crepe myrtles. The beautiful park, with its annuals planted year round, will soon be more visible to pedestrians and drivers. (photo submitted)

Ancient Bible mysteries revealed during lectures beginning Thursday

The old train depot in Lan-drum will be the site of this lec-ture series beginning Thursday, October 14 at 7 p.m. The series will run Thursday, Friday, Satur-day and Sunday nights through November 7.

In the perilous times we are living in, we are bombarded on all sides with economic fears, the rampages of nature, the threat of terrorist attacks, and the loss of our freedoms. This series presented by Gene Young and Arthur Gibbs will explore messages of hope in

Daniel and Revelation’s end-time prophecies and how they relate to our present-time circumstances.

This is a community seminar for people of all religious persua-sions and is free to the public. Free prophecy DVDs, Bibles, study guides and gifts will be presented each night.

The opening night will be held Thursday, October 14 at 7 p.m. at the old train station depot, located at 201 N. Trade Avenue in Landrum.

Upstairs Artspace calls for jewelry, accessory donations

Co-chairs Christine Mariotti and gail Muir check out jewelry being donated for the november 6 Baubles, Bangles & Beads Secondhand Jewelry Sale held at Upstairs Artspace. (photo submitted)

The Upstairs Artspace announc-es the “Baubles, Bangles & Beads Jewelry and Accessory Sale” tak-ing place on Saturday, November 6, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at The Shops of Tryon. The nonprofit arts organization is asking the public for donations of jewelry and other accessories (scarves, handbags, belts, gloves).

The jewelry can be old, brand new, vintage, costume, collectible, precious, or funky and fun. “We’re looking for earrings, bracelets, necklaces, pins, rings, watches, cuff links – you name it,” says Christine Mariotti, event co-chair along with Gail Muir. “All the jewelry will be good quality and some will have never been worn.” Accessories can run the gamut from small to large scarves in all

materials; handbags, purses, eve-ning bags, wallets; belts and gloves for women and men.

Broken jewelry is acceptable if it can be used by artists to make new jewelry.

“This is a great opportunity for people to clear out drawers and closets of clutter,” says Muir.

Donations are being accepted at the Upstairs Artspace, located at 49 S. Trade Street in Tryon, Tuesday through Saturday, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Deadline for donations is Saturday, October 30 at 5 p.m.

Place jewelry in a plastic Ziploc bag with a contact name and phone number. If a donation has an in-teresting history that a new owner would appreciate, include it with the jewelry.

Polk Republican Party meeting Tuesday, October 12

The Polk County Republican Party will hold its October meet-ing on Tuesday, October 12, in the courtroom of the Polk County Courthouse at 7 p.m. This is a change of day from the regularly scheduled time of the second Thurs-day of each month. The change is due to the Candidates for Sheriff Debate which is to be held on the

regularly scheduled day of October 14. This will be the last general meeting before the election, so all Republicans are strongly encour-aged to attend. This will be a good opportunity to volunteer to help with the final days of the election. For further information, contact Cheryl Every at 828-894-6457.

“What is happening at Thermal Belt Outreach?”

Do You Know?by Eloise Thwing

Director, Thermal Belt Outreach

The Thermal Belt Outreach now open to serve the public five days a week.

Outreach is working on sev-eral projects at this time. We are continuing to sell tickets for a hand-made queen size quilt with “The Bow Tie design. Tickets remain available at the follow-ing locations: Tryon Federal in Tryon, Tryon Federal and Mountain First Banks in Co-lumbus. Tickets are also avail-able at Thermal Belt Outreach office located at 134 White Drive. Tickets are one dollar each or six for five dollars. The quilt will be on display and tickets sold at our annual yard sale.

T h e r m a l Belt Outreach will hold our annual yard sale at the Mill Spring Agricultural Develop-ment Center in Mill Spring on October 16. Hours are 8 a.m. – 2 p.m. rain or shine.

If you need a washing ma-chine, couch, fireplace insert or tools, this is the place you will need to be. Mark this date and watch for our signs. Since most of the items will be inside, you won’t need to worry about the weather. We will have the draw-ing for our hand-made quilt at the close of the Yard Sale. You do not have to be present to win.

We are currently taking ap-

plications for our Thanksgiving/Christmas Program. Applica-tions will continue to be taken at Thermal Belt Outreach through October 21. If you need assis-tance with food for the holidays and/or toys for your children at Christmas, please come in and apply for assistance. Last year Outreach fed 774 individuals during the holidays plus 367 children and elderly received gifts from the Angel Tree Pro-gram. With a slack economy many families are in need of as-sistance. For more information, please call Michelle Reedy.

Our Feed-A-Kid Program is up and going. We are cur-rently feeding 262 children

each weekend. This program, which began in January 2008, has experienced a steady in-crease each year. If you would like to know more about how you can help a child on this pro-gram, please call Lora Morgan at 828-894-2988. Please leave a message if she is not available and she will return your call.

With the help of a grant from the Tryon Rotary Club, our Home Repair Team is back at work. Mr. David Graham, Director of Foothills Housing Partnership, is coordinating this project. Outreach will assist Mr. Graham with seven of the 14 homes that will be remodeled.

For more information on this program, please call Jim Mc-Clintock at 828-894-2988.

Firewood, blankets and heat-ers are now available to needy clients. We are working with various churches to get fire-wood cut and split for our cli-ents. Currently, we are working with the Congregational Church of Tryon.

Special recognition goes to two groups:

1. Bi-Lo Charities collected 211 boxes of food and 16 bags of cat/dog food for our food pantry. In the past three years we have received over 500 boxes of food from Bi-Lo Charities.

2. Tryon Estates collected 2 truckloads of food and gave a monetary gift of $1,290 to our food pantry. These donations will help feed many needy individuals.

If you would like to donate to our different programs please send your check to Thermal Belt Outreach, P.O. Box 834, Columbus NC 28722 or if you would like to volunteer please stop by our office for a tour of our facility.

Eloise Thwing is the founder and director of Thermal Belt Outreach, which is an inde-pendent non-profit organization located in Columbus, N.C. For more information, visit our website at http://tboutreach.org.

The Bird Box

by Simon Thompson

A quiet song echoes from the brown woodlands. The notes are clear, repetitive and seem to almost pierce the cool winter air. This selection of whistling notes make up the song of the White-throated Sparrow, a win-ter visitor here in western North Carolina. For many people liv-ing from southern Canada to New England, this is the classic song of the northern forests and surprisingly this species habitu-ally sings even on its wintering grounds.

White-throats breed east of the Rocky Mountains, from southern Alberta as far east as Nova Scotia in a mix of brushy woodlands, in-cluding mixed and spruce-fir f o r e s t . T h e i r winter habitat includes most of the southern United States, where they are a fairly common sight in many brushy areas, including hedge-rows, woodlands and back yards, where they readily come to feed on the ground at the base of many bird feeders. Here they can often be seen feeding along-side Dark-eyed Juncos, another winter visitor from our nearby mountains, as well as from colder climes farther north.

Sparrows can be quite difficult to identify and may

be conveniently split into two groups – some with streaked or spot-ted breasts, while oth-ers are mostly plain below. White-throated Sparrows are typical of the latter group, be-ing mostly brown with plain underparts, al-though their breast may show some marking or indistinct streaking. They also have 2 white wing bars, but their most obvious feature is the strongly marked head pattern. A bold pattern of black and

white stripes, coupled with a white throat and yellow l o r e s g i v e this bird away and makes its identity un-mistakable.

The larger White-crowned Sparrow shares the White-throat’s head pattern, but lacks the white throat and seems to have a slightly more clean-cut appearance. White-crowns rarely come to feeders and prefer to feed in fairly open, agricultural country.

White-throats also come in a tan striped version of the familiar black and white striped adult. This color phase used to

white-throated sparrows – winter visitors from the far north

WhiTe-ThroaT sparroW (phoTo suBmiTTeD)

be considered the immature form, but is now considered a morph as both forms can read-ily breed together.

While White-throats are on of our most abundant winter sparrows, they are also one of the most attractive. Next time you have a small flock feeding on the ground under the feeder, take another look. You may be surprised at how striking they really are.

Simon Thompson has lived in WNC for the past 16 years. He owns and operates his own birding tour company, Ventures Birding Tours. WWW.bird ventures.com.

Tryon Church History Colloquium to feature Pierard beginning Oct. 12

The Tryon Church History Colloquium will feature the dis-tinguished scholar Dr. Richard Pierard for a series of four lectures on Tuesday nights beginning Octo-ber 12 at the First Baptist Church Activity Building.

Dr. Pierard holds degrees from California State University (B.A. And M.A.) and the University of Iowa (Ph.D.). He has also served as secretary and a leader of the Faith and History Association.

He retired from Gordon Col-lege where he capped a long and distinguished career that included many scholarly publications and professional activities – among them the book he co-authored with fellow retired Gordon professor Thomas Askew, “The American Church Experience: A Concise History.” His essays and articles appeared in many periodicals including “Reformed Journal,” “Christian Century” and “Christi-anity Today.”

Prior to Gordon, Pierard was professor of history at Indiana State University; he was also a Fulbright professor with the University of

Frankfurt in West Germany.Courses that he taught over his

career included European history, social and economic history of the United States, and Nazi Germany and the Holocaust.

The four subjects he has chosen for the local discussion are:

• October 12: “How did we get the Bible?”

• October 19: “How has the Christian Church dealt with War and Peace Issues?”

• October 26: “What was the role of the church in America’s concept of Religious Freedom?”

• November 2. “How Christian-ity has become a Global Faith”

Dinner will be served at 6 p.m., followed at 6:30 by Dr. Pierard’s presentation. At 7:30 p.m. des-sert will be served with time for discussion.

Those who plan to participate are asked to make reservations for dinner and pay a small fee to cover the cost of each meal. Call 828-859-5375 or email [email protected] to make reserva-tions.

Random acts of generosityThis is a new column about

“Saving the Places We Love” in our beautiful area. We’ll talk about water and mountains, horse and cattle farms, greenspace and for-ests, native and endangered species of plants and wildlife, and how The Pacolet Area Conservancy (PAC) goes about its preservation work. I’ll probably do most of the writ-ing, since I like to talk on paper.

I could set the stage here by frightening you about the way our natural re-sources are disappear-ing. How the Pacolet River ran r e d w i t h d y e o n e day. How s c r u b b y coyotes seem to be multiplying exponentially while foxes dwindle. How mountains are being scraped and trees clear cut to make way for thousands of theoretical suburbia-style houses… and so on.

But, hey, here’s an idea. Instead of focusing on the negative, let’s talk about how a flurry of unex-pected acts of generosity came to the land trust, and how this relates to conservation and overall abun-dance (such a happy word when broken down into syllables creat-ing “a bun dance”).

It all started with a phone call from Randy Grobe. Anyone who knows Randy knows two things about him: (1) he owns the fabu-lous Frog & Swan, and (2) he is a prince. What you might not know is that Randy loves conservation and the abundant world of green all around him. Randy also operates estate and tag sales. Last winter, I had asked Randy if he would consider putting aside a few unsold items for PAC’s September Spec-tacular auction in, you guessed it,

September. Life moved on until August,

when I received a phone call from Randy, asking if I would come to his shop to pick up some pieces he was donating. Many, many antiques – silver, china, lamps, paintings, and all sorts of decora-tor items – came pouring out of Randy’s shop and into PAC’s stor-age bin for the sale. Thousands of dollars’ worth of great stuff.

That would have seemed to be our gi-gantic gift quota for the year. Oh no, I get a call from Noreen Co-thran from The Farm House. She

knew that PAC was conducting a “Tack for PAC” sale at the Septem-ber Spectacular, and she had “some things” for me to pick up. Noreen’s mother lode turned out to be boxes and boxes of brand new designer belts, some sparkly sun glasses, lots of chaps and half-chaps. For those who don’t ride horses, these beautiful leather chaps normally sell for up to $450 a pair. Both Randy and Noreen said to “price the items to sell” to benefit PAC.

Random acts of generosity cropped up around the Spectacu-lar event like spring grass after a shower. A complete stranger, a lovely woman living out at the PAC-protected Walnut Creek Preserve, telephoned a few days before the event, wondering if it was “too late” to donate thousands of dollars’ worth of custom-made furniture.

A “what can I do to help?” club formed which included horse show manager Lewis Pack, who made certain that PAC’s fundraising events aproned the horse events.

Wanting to help members included Susan Penfold, a force of nature who breathed vitality and fun into the silent auction; Tryon Estates’ Nancy McKinstry, who simply showed up unsolicited with a Charleston vacation that fetched $600; Josh from Dogwood Farm Kennels, who expressed interest in helping whenever PAC has an event. (Meanwhile Dogwood Farm Kennels is housing adoption dogs for the Foothills Humane Society.)

I can understand why newspa-per policy doesn’t allow me simply to provide a list of everyone who helped and supported the event (Then no one would buy advertis-ing to support the paper), but I’m going to squeak in Rebecca Kemp for the use of her horse trailer, which served as a tack shop. And some of the rest of you, such as Gilbert’s Nursery, Essence Day Spa, Little Mountain Farm Sup-ply, Bird Mountain Market, Still Creek Aquatread, Bonnie Brae, Tryon House, and sales people extroardinare Linda Sprague, Su-san Kelley and many, many more know who you are.

Human nature can be very gen-erous, but its gift-giving requires thought and action. Mother Na-ture, on the other hand, extends her generosity continuously, renewing herself regardless of how we play upon her stage. I believe there’s an inner prompt that causes cer-tain people to respond to nature’s largesse with generous acts of their own. It’s like rolling around in deep grass and feeling the warmth of the early morning sun filtered through tall trees while listening to the flutes of a bubbling stream. This exchange of unbidden gener-osity serves as its own renewal for those who act to protect the natural environment.

Steps to HOPE brings awareness to the issue of domestic violence in OctoberEditor’s Note: In recognition of October, National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Steps to HOPE has submitted the following to bring awareness to the issue of domestic violence.

To My Abuser,Yesterday you dropped me

off for a doctors’ appointment. I thought you would stay with me as you usually do, but you had an errand to run. While waiting for the doctor, I found a wallet sized card with informa-tion about confidential services

offered for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault in the form of shelter, counseling and assistance. Finding this card was the first ray of hope in my dark world. I imagined I would find a private minute to make that call one day, and even though I was terrified of being caught, I was determined to call because I was desperate.

That opportunity finally did come and I found the nerve to call. With the help of the staff at Steps to HOPE I devised a

safe exit plan. I am in a shelter for now, getting counseling, working with a court advocate through the process of obtaining a Domestic Violence Protection Order against you. I am receiving the assistance I need to figure out what to do next, set goals and move on. Most of all, I am safe.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic vio-lence or sexual assault, we can help. Call Steps to HOPE at 828-894-2340, 24-hours a day.
