Polk’s travel and tourism options growChamber, EDC and Tryon offer to provide servicesbyLeahJustice
Polk County has no lack of options for how to provide travel and tourism services next year.
The tourism department wants to keep the service. The Caro-lina Foothills Chamber of Com-merce, the county’s economic development commission (EDC)
in controversy, w i t h m a n y opinions ex-pressed about who should run the department.
T h e P o l k County Board o f Commis -sioners heard
Monday, March 21 from accom-modations business owners who
and the Town of Tryon have a l s o t h r o w n their names in the hat.
Polk County approached the chamber earlier this year to see if it was inter-ested in taking the service in exchange for approximately $65,000 in annual occupancy tax-es. The proposition has resulted
Ninth book for local authorMark Schweizer’s ‘The Countertenor Wore Garlic’ set to come out in AprilbyRobinA.Edgar
Don’t let local Tryon writer Mark Schweizer in on any of your secrets. They just might be revealed in the latest edition of his liturgical mystery series – especially if they have a musi-cal bent.
Growing up in Winter Park, Fla., Schweizer has been involved in music ever since his
mother forced him to take piano lessons. He went on to study vocal performance at Stetson University, graduating in 1979 with a bach-elor of music degree in performance.
“It was a toss-up. The family business
was architecture, but I decided to pursue music as a career as soon as I discovered the math require-ment for architecture majors,” he said.
Music also played a big part in Schweizer’s personal life. He and his wife, Donis, a violinist,
met when they both worked at the Farmhouse Restaurant in Blowing Rock, N.C. Now closed, the establishment used to hire college students (mostly music/drama majors) to wait tables,

Holmberg, who grew up in Tryon and graduated from Polk County High School in 2004, will focus on selling advertising in both the Bulle-tin and the Bulletin's monthly equestrian publication, Ap-pointments.

“It was great expe-rience. They provided room and board and a venue for creativity,” said Schweizer.
After earning mas-ter ’s of music and doctor of musical arts degrees from the University of Arizo-na, Schweizer joined the faculty of Stetson University and, later, Louisiana College to teach voice, opera and theory. At the same time, he sang for re-gional opera compa-nies across the south.
Throughout his ca-reer as a vocal artist, Schweizer worked part time as a church choir director. In 1989, he started St. James Music Press, a church music publishing company that specializes in choral church music.
In the early 90s, he took a full time job as a church musi-cian at a large Methodist church in Hopkinsville, Ky., about 60 miles north of Nashville, Tenn., where the Schweizers raised their children, Christopher and Lindy.
Focusing on St. James Press after retiring from the church about seven years ago, Schweizer grew his company, which now supplies more than 1,200 anthems to about 8,000 churches world-wide. Although he does a lot of the writing and arranging of the choral anthems, he has more than 200 composers represented in the St. James Press catalog.
Ever seeking creative out-lets, Schweizer decided to target his audience of church musi-cians and church choir members and promote his self-published, tongue-in-cheek mystery series. Drawing from some of his own experiences, his protagonist, a small North Carolina town police chief named Hayden Konig, also
happens to work as a part time church choir director and write liturgical mysteries.
The first book in the series, “The Alto Wore Tweed,” won the 2004 Independent Mystery Booksellers Association “Killer Books” selection and has sold about 40,000 copies so far. Ac-cording to Schweizer, when a new book comes out, it sells about 3,000-3,500 copies the first year.
“Word of mouth has been the best marketing tool as well as great reviews on blogs. The books now have a very good follow-ing in Indy bookstores, mystery bookstores and on Amazon.com,” said Schweizer, who also writes and produces mystery dinner theater based on his books.
There may very well be a few similarities to Tryon in the latest books since the eighth book, “The Organist Wore Pumps,” came out last April several months after the Schweizers relocated here. The ninth book in the series, “The Countertenor Wore Garlic,” comes out this April.
To learn more about St. James Music Press or the other books in Schweizer’s series, go to www.sjmpbooks.com or visit the Book Shelf on Pacolet Street in Tryon.

are members of the Polk County Travel and Tourism Advisory Board, the chamber of commerce, the EDC board, Carl Caudle and Polk County Travel and Tourism Director Melinda Young.
Commissioners also heard opinions from 14 individuals who spoke during citizen comments. A total of 83 people attended the meeting, and the majority were there for the travel and tourism issue.
Polk County Travel and Tour-ism Board chair Peggy Turner represented the a c c o m m o d a -tions providers on the board and asked that com-missioners “not farm us out.” Tu r n e r p r e -sented a power point asking the county to keep the brand name (Firs t Peak) , logo and web-site that the board has worked so hard to accomplish.
Accommodations providers also made numerous suggestions to keep the board and tourism office. Some of those suggestions included reducing the staff level in the office to one part-time em-ployee plus volunteers, capping the county’s portion of funding at $20,000 and restructuring the advisory board to a management board.
Chamber president Andy Mil-lard announced that the chamber board recently voted unanimously for the chamber to provide the service.
“We think we are the organi-zation that can do the best job,” Millard said. “There are many stakeholders in travel and tour-ism and all of us at the chamber have a vested interest in travel and tourism.”
Millard said the chamber has volunteers, the ability to lever-age the tax dollars and an office that can be staffed on weekends and Monday holidays. Millard
said the chamber will keep the occupancy tax money separate and run a Polk County Travel and Tourism office to promote Polk County tour-ism, dispelling some people’s fears that Polk County’s money would be spent to pro-mote Landrum since the chamber now also represents with Landrum.
EDC chair Ambrose Mills said the EDC board recommends the county merge the EDC and tourism department and the de-
partment be run by a director of economic de-velopment and tourism. Mills said it is impor-tant to choose a skilled and dy-namic director who “can move us forward.” He also said the occupancy tax should be used
to benefit all Polk County citizens and businesses and should be managed by a county department.
“I think it should be a county responsibility,” said Mills.
Polk County Manager Ryan Whitson also announced that the county received a letter from the Town of Tryon and the Tryon Tourism Development Author-ity, which are also interested in providing the service.
“Please accept this correspon-dence as formal indication of interest from the Town of Tryon/Tryon Tourism Development Authority in providing tourism development services for Polk County,” said the letter, signed by Tryon Mayor Alan Peoples and Tryon Tourism Development Authority Chair Jim Ott.
Tryon is proposing to operate a visitor’s center at the current town manager’s office in town hall, oversee websites and manage advertising, media and events and festivals for Polk County.
Other options came from Young, who said she has prepared
three budgets for the county to consider if the county wants to continue to run the department. Young’s budgets include one to run the department as it is currently staffed, which would require $33,308 in county funding (as well as the occupancy tax). Another budget includes reduc-tions that would require $14,993 in county funding on top of the occupancy tax and a third option includes drastic cuts to maintain the department on occupancy tax funding only.
“Obviously tourism is very important to our county,” Young said. “Our purpose is to promote Polk County as a tourism desti-nation.”
Young said the tourism office promotes all relevant businesses at no costs and posts more than 350 events on the website every year.
In December, the tourism of-fice printed 40,000 brochures with maps and information and more than half are gone. Young also said the current office is a great location and had 4,000 visitors in 2010. The lobby is open 24/7 with top brochures and events on display and the office also has volunteers from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. on Saturdays and holidays as available, according to Young.
Residents expressed vary-ing opinions, with many saying Young has been very helpful and they want to keep the tourism of-fice in its current location. Oth-ers said the chamber would do a great job and still others said the EDC and tourism offices should be combined.

“One thing is clear,” Millard said, “whoever gets this is go-ing to be under some serious pressure.”
Commissioner Cindy Walker said the county might also want to consider ceasing collecting the occupancy tax and letting businesses draw tourism without the county’s help. Walker’s idea didn’t receive support from com-missioners Monday.
Columbus Town Council also discussed the future of travel and tourism during a council meeting
Columbus wants tourism office to stay in ColumbusbyLeahJustice
Columbus Town Council de-cided this week to send a letter to Polk County commissioners stating the council’s opinion that the best place for the tourism department is in Columbus.
C o l u m b u s Town Council met Tuesday, March 22 and discussed the county’s deci-sion regarding who should run the travel and tourism depart-ment.
The county recen t ly ap-proached the Carolina Foothills Chamber of Commerce to see if it is inter-ested in taking over the service. Since then, the Polk County Economic Development Com-mission (EDC) and the Town of Tryon/Tryon Tourism De-velopment Authority have also expressed interest in providing travel and tourism services (see front page article). In addition, the county tourism department and accommodations providers have said they want to keep the service in its current department and location.
“I’m not saying the chamber couldn’t do it and do it well, but we are the county seat,” said Columbus Mayor Eric McIntyre. “I think it benefits all of Polk County, not just Columbus, to have it located close to the I-26
corridor where the traffic is coming from.”
C o u n c i l -woman Marga-ret Metcalf said she’d person-ally like to see all the towns have their own visitor’s center.
“We need to keep [the county tourism
office] in Columbus,” Metcalf said. “It would be disastrous if we got rid of it.”
Councilwoman Ernie Kan, who attended the county’s board of commissioners meeting Mon-day, March 21, said most people want to keep the tourism office in Columbus because Columbus is directly off the interstate.
“We have the perfect place for it,” Kan said.
She suggested Columbus could help to support the tourism office with volunteer or other ef-forts to keep it in the county seat.
“I think it benefits all of Polk County, not just Columbus, to have [the travel and tourism office] located close to the I-26 corridor where the traffic is coming from.”--ColumbusMayorEricMcIntyre

Tuesday, March 22 and decided to draft a letter saying that the town thinks the best location for the department is in Columbus (see article above).
Commissioners decided not to make a decision on the issue yet.
“I’m not sure if we’ll make a decision at the next meeting or after that,” said commissioner chair Ray Gasperson. “Travel and tourism is indeed a major economic driver and engine for Polk County and we have a tough decision, but I’m con-vinced this board will do its due diligence.”

Columbus to draft new ordinance regulating peddlersDoor to door sales likely to be bannedbyLeahJustice
Some Columbus Town Coun-cil members have expressed concern that peddlers hurt local businesses.
Town council decided Tues-day, March 22 to draft a new, more stringent peddler ordinance that will include banning door- to-door sales.
Discussions on the peddler ordinance began following Val-entine’s Day when a vendor sold flowers in the town. Currently, a peddler can sell items in Colum-bus after paying $25 for a permit.
Councilwoman Margaret Met-calf said when a hotdog vendor sets up in town it hurts local restaurants and a flower vendor hurts local flower shops on Val-entine’s Day.
“I’d lean more toward not having (peddlers),” Metcalf said.
Columbus Mayor Eric Mc-Intyre said he is leaning toward Metcalf’s opinion in that Colum-bus businesses are the ones that pay taxes.
“It’s not that we don’t want to support entrepreneurs, we just want to help people who are al-
ready established here so we don’t lose business,” McIntyre said.
Council made it clear that they don’t want to ban non-profit fund-raisers, such as Girl Scout cookie selling, car washes and local fish fries. Vendors for festivals would also be exempt.
Councilman Richard Hall said, however, that there was a situation last year when the high school prom and the local dance recital were held on the same night and the local flower businesses couldn’t handle the demand on one night.
Councilwoman Ernie Kan said there are a lot of requirements the town could put into the new peddler ordinance to discourage peddlers, such as requiring back-ground checks.
Kan also suggested the town make the permit larger, so it can be displayed by peddlers and everyone will know they are a legitimate operation.
Council members and the mayor were all in agreement that the town does not want to allow door-to-door sales.
Council agreed to submit ideas to town manager Jonathan Kanipe for the new ordinance and plan to discuss it further next month.
Polk man dies when wind causes tree to fall on truckbyLeahJustice
High winds Wednesday, March 23 caused a tree to fall and kill a Green Creek man as he was travel-ing in his truck.
William Allison, 55, of Tanner Road, Green Creek, was driving east on Tanner Road around 5 p.m. Wednesday when a tree fell on his Nissan pickup truck, according to N.C. Highway Patrol reports.
Windy conditions caused a dead pine tree to fall just as Allison passed below it.
Trooper C.J. Sama said the tim-ing was really bad luck and he’s never seen anything like it. The tree broke off a few feet from the ground.
Allison was alone in the vehicle. Tanner Road was closed for some time Wednesday while the accident was being investigated.
The highway patrol, Polk Coun-ty EMS, Green Creek Fire Depart-ment, the Polk County Rescue Squad and Polk County Sheriff’s Office all responded to the scene.

Greer population booms, Spartanburg loses residentsS.C. suspends mini train rides after accident in Spartanburg
Spartanburg was the only large city in South Carolina to lose residents in the past decade, while nearby Greer was one of the fastest growing cities in the state, according to Census data.
The 2010 Census data released this week for South Carolina shows Spartanburg’s population declined from 39,673 in 2000 to 37,013 in 2010, a 6.7-percent drop. Over the same period, Greer’s population surged 51.5 percent, rising from 16,843 to 25,515, an increase of 8,672.
Greer was the second-fastest growing city in the Palmetto state, trailing only Summerville at 56.4 percent. Mauldin, outside of Greenville, was the third fast-est at 50.3 percent. Greenville gained residents in the previous decade, but at a relatively slow pace, adding just 4.3 percent to reach 58,409.
Overall, South Carolina’s pop-ulation rose 15 percent to 4.625 million, making it the 10th fastest growing state in the nation, not far behind North Carolina, which was 6th at 18.5 percent.
***South Carolina has suspended
all miniature train rides in the state following an accident at Cleveland Park in Spartanburg last week that killed a 6-year-old boy from Gaffney and injured 28 other people, mostly chil-dren. The state is investigating the cause of the accident, which
occurred Sat-urday at about 1 p.m. when the miniature t r a i n o v e r -turned near a small bridge
on the track. The accident took place dur-
ing the first hour of operation in a new season for the Cleveland Park train. Witnesses, and even the conductor of the train, Mat-thew Mark Conrad, said the train was going too fast, according to an incident report. The train, which has a top speed of 15 miles

NOTICE OF MEETINGS OF THE POLK COUNTY BOARD OF EQUAL-IZATION AND REVIEW
Pursuant to N.C.G. S. 105-322, the Polk County Board of Equalization and Review will meet as required by law.
PURPOSE OF MEETINGSTo hear, upon request, any and all
taxpayers who own or control taxable property assessed for taxation in Polk County, with respect to
valuation of such property, or the property of others,
and to fulfill other duties and re-sponsibilites as required by law.
TIME OF MEETINGSThe Board will convene for its first
meeting on Tuesday April 5, 2011.The Board will adjourn for the pur-
pose of accepting Requests for hear-ing at its last meeting on Wednesday, April 27, 2011.
Meetings will begin at 9:00 AM in the R. Jay Foster Hall of Justice up-stairs in the Womack Building located at 40 Courthouse St, Columbus, NC
Requests for hearing must me re-ceived no later than final adjournment which is scheduled for Wednesday April 27, 2011 at 1:00 PM.
In the event of an earlier or a later adjournment, notice to that effect will be published in this newspaper.
If you are appealing the value of your property, you must provide evi-dence that the county value was sub-stantially higher than market value on January 1, 2009 (the county’s last appraisal year.) Examples of relevant evidence include:
sale prices of properties com-parable to yours, which sold during the year before the county’s last appraisal year;
unequal assessed values for prop-erties comparable to yours;
an appraisal with an effective date of January 1, 2009 (the county’s last appraisal date;)
By statute, property values can-not be changed based on changes in economic conditions which occur after the last appraisal, and which affect the county in general - [G.S. §105-287(b)(2)].
For example, if your tax value was set by the county at $100,000 a couple of years ago, but today’s mar-ket value is only $80,000 because of a recent decrease in real estate values, the county is not permitted to lower the tax value. For the same reason, your tax value cannot be raised if today’s market value is $130,000 because of an increase in real estate values.
Local real estate market condi-tions only affect tax values when the county conducts a new countywide reappraisal, which must be done at least every eight years.

per hour, was cleared for use by a state inspector last week.
However, the inspector, Donnie Carrigan resigned on Monday after admitting to falsifying the inspec-tion form. Carrigan said he was un-able to complete a required test run because the train had a dead battery.
***North Carolina legislators are
considering eliminating vehicle safety inspections in the state. State senator Stan Bingham of Davidson, the chief sponsor of a bill to scrap the inspections, said he might be open to continuing inspections for older model ve-hicles, but he doesn’t believe they are needed for newer models. He said most new model vehicles are “trouble-free,” and auto repair shops usually catch the “obvious things,” such as burned out lights or a faulty horn. A 2008 study found that North Carolina motorists may not be getting enough in return for the $141 million they spend an-nually for the inspections, which lack oversight from the Division of Motor Vehicles.
However, North Carolina law enforcement officials have said the state should not do away with the inspections. They said the inspections keep vehicles safe and employ people at the garages that provide them. The Division of Motor Vehicles said it began making some improvements to the inspection process even prior to the release of the 2008 study. North Carolina is one of about 20 states with an inspection for safety or emissions. South Carolina is one of 15 states that do not require such inspections.
***The city of Raleigh has can-
celled its annual summer street festival to save money in a tight budget year. The city expects to save up to $180,000 by dropping the festival, which began in 2006 to help draw more people to the downtown area. City officials said the festival fulfilled the ob-jective and they hope the city’s new 5,500-seat amphitheater, opening April 1, will help the city attract visitors.

UDO committee eyes new green space zoning district
On Thursday, Feb. 17, the Polk County Unified Devel-opment Ordinance (UDO) Advisory Committee met at the Polk County Senior Center for its fifth formal meeting.
The county’s consulting planner, Dale Holland, pre-sented items for discussion. One is the potential for a new county zoning district that would reflect the Green Space sector as outlined in the Vision 20/20 Plan. Holland stressed that at the end of the UDO de-velopment process, it is likely the current zoning map will be amended, and could represent a hybrid of existing zoning and the future land map from the Vision 20/20 Plan.
Finally, Holland presented for consideration a new resi-dential business definition for the Multiple Use district that would greatly expand al-lowed uses of an individual’s property. This new Class II Residential Business definition is intended to aid in the pres-ervation of individual property rights and support the strong entrepreneurial business objec-tives of the Vision 20/20 Plan, while not opening the district to unbridled development.
Holland also presented in-formation from an article is-sued by the UNC’s Center for Urban and Regional Studies about the need for affordable, workforce housing in the Ashe-ville Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). The article re-veals that the Asheville MSA has the second least affordable housing market in North Caro-lina, causing many to live far away from work, and to spend more than 30 percent of their income on housing.
The issue of attainable housing, housing that a nor-
mal working family or senior citizen can afford, was ranked the third highest focus priority for Polk County by the UDO advisory committee.
The committee also contin-ued the discussion about how the UDO can best reflect the advisory committee’s top prior-ity, preserving Polk County’s prime agricultural lands and ag-ricultural heritage. Committee members said because it is clear that subdivision sprawl has been the single most destructive development pattern to rural character throughout the region and nation, the need to provide a means to reasonably control sprawl is a great challenge in the creation of the UDO.
The UDO planners and com-mittee have agreed to propose a conditional use permit require-ment for major subdivisions (more than eight lots) as the pri-mary tool to ensure that devel-opments do not have a negative impact on surrounding residents and the county as a whole. The committee has discussed at length the potential impacts over-development could have on the two northern townships and the Green Creek area.
Of additional concern is the potential for the Town of Lake Lure to extend extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) up to one mile outside of the Lake Lure town limits into Polk County, thus regulating land use in the Sunny View area.
The committee also met on March 22, when it focused on the draft ordinance ar-ticles covering Environmental Regulations and Performance Standards. The results of that meeting will be reported soon.
All UDO committee meet-ings are open to the public.

Letter to the Editor
An appeal to Christians
To the Editor: Inspired by “Think Before
Judging,” Tryon Daily Bulletin, March 9, 2011.
Yes, we all need to think more. But I will leave the judg-ing part to God, since Jesus said, “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Matthew 7:1-2 NIV.
I particularly like the writer’s sentence, “I hope Americans will become more studious, thinking, fair-minded people our country and world needs.”
With the studious part in mind, I would like to impart a little knowledge on the readers.
Many of us in this country today view Muslims as two distinct groups, the radicals (extremists), and all other Mus-lims (the peaceful Muslims). However, one fact remains.
Both the extremists and the peaceful Muslims follow the teachings of the Qur’an (Koran), and therein lies the problem. I would like to share with you just four verses from the Qur’an that I have difficulty with.
I will quote these verses just as they appear in an English translation of the Qur’an, by the Muslim scholar Abdullah Yusuf Ali, originally published in 1934.
Surah V:14 “from those, too, who call themselves Christians, We did take a covenant, but they forgot a good part of the message that we sent them: so we estranged them, with enmity and hatred between the one and the other, to the day of judge-ment. And soon will Allah show them what it is they have done.”
Surah V:51 “O ye who be-lieve! Take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust.”
Surah IX:4 “(But the treaties are) not dissolved with those Pagans with whom ye have entered into alliance and who have not subsequently failed you in aught, nor aided any one against you. So fulfill your engagements with them to the end of their term. For Allah loveth the righteous.”
Surah IX:5 “But when the forbidden months have past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of War); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practice regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oftforgiving, Most Merciful.”

Think about this, to a Mus-lim, all non-believers in Islam are pagans and infidels. So it doesn’t matter if you are an atheist, a Buddhist, a Christian, a Jew, a Hindu or what-ever, you are an infidel to a Muslim. And when push comes to shove, you have one choice, convert to Islam or die.
As I said at the beginning, I am not judging Muslims, but merely passing on information that you should be aware of and urging you the think.
As for my Christian broth-ers and sisters, I ask you to remember the words of Jesus as recorded in Matthew 5:43-44, “You have heard that it was said, love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those that persecute you.” NIV
And so I appeal to all Chris-tians to pray that God will intervene and open the eyes of the followers of Islam and turn them from the teachings of Muhammad.

Swofford Career Center announces Simpkins as new directorThe Swofford Career Center
recently announced Scott Simpkins as its new director. Swofford serves the students of Spartanburg County Districts One and Two. Simpkins is a 1986 graduate of Clemson Univer-sity earning a Bachelor of Science degree in industrial technology education. He received a Master’s Degree in secondary administra-tion and supervision from Winthrop University in 1997.
Prior to joining the staff at Swofford Career Center as the assistant director, Simpkins was a teacher, coach, and chairman of the Vocational Department at Clover High School in Clover, S.C. He has
served the students of Spartanburg District One and Two since 1997.
“I consider it a great honor to be named the new director at HB Swofford Career Center and I look forward to serving the stu-dents of both districts and all four high schools,” said Simpkins.
As the assistant director of Swofford Career Center for the past 14 years and an educator for 25 years, Simpkins has served students of Clover, Chapman, Landrum, Chesnee and Boiling Springs High Schools.
“We are delighted that the stu-dents and staff at Swofford Career Center will have such wonderful
leadership in Scott Simpkins. He has been an integral part of Swofford’s success for several years. With Mr. Simpkins as the director, we are confident that our students and the staff there will continue to have the guidance that is needed for the school to continue to be a leader in career and technical education in the upstate,” said Dr. Ron Garner, Dis-trict One Schools superintendent.
Superintendent of Spartanburg District Two Dr. Scott Mercer said “Mr. Simpkins brings experience and a proven track record at Swof-ford Career Center, which will be invaluable in continuing the programs and successes already
in place and in mapping out a direct course to take in achieving the school’s future destination.”

Saluda hikes, fundraisers and sunshine“Beyond, outside of me,
in the green and gold thicket, among the tremulous branches, sings the unknown. It calls to me.”
–– Octavio Paz
Welcome to mid-March Sa-luda news and notations!
Spring has sprung, green leaves and cherry blossoms brighten the day. Birds sing with gladness that winter is leaving; although as Robert Pace used to say, we might get ‘blackberry winter’ coming ahead and better not to put away the warm clothing just yet!
However, I think we’re all delighted to get sweet spring days with blue sky and warmth on our faces.
A community potluck will be held at the Saluda Center, 64 Greenville Street on Thursday, March 31 at 6 p.m. Tom Fisch
will be the entertainment. Bring your favorite dish to share!
The recently-formed Saluda Fire and Rescue Auxiliary will sponsor fund-raisers in order to help support the communi-ty. Their first fundraiser will be a yard sale held at Saluda Fire and Rescue on Greenville Street on Saturday, April 30.
Donations are currently be-ing accepted at the fire depart-ment.
Take a hike! Two nature walks are planned by our Sa-luda Land Community Trust (SCLT) in April. Nancy Barnett will lead the first hike to Pacolet Falls on April 2, 10 a.m. with a rain date set for April 3, 2 p.m. Located along a ridge in a cove of the North Pacolet River,
this hike is on private property and is only open with special permission.
Chuck Hearon will be lead-ing the second hike on April 9 at 10 a.m. on the “Missing 40” acres on Pearson Falls Road (rain date April 10
at 2 p.m.). Both hikes start by meeting at the Saluda Library and car-pooling. If you have any questions, please call SCLT at 828-749-1560.
The Saluda 130th Anniver-sary committee has planned a community-wide auction at the Saluda Center to raise funds to “Keep the Celebration on Track” on April 23 starting at 10 a.m.
You can donate furniture, jewelry, glassware, household
goods and decorative items for the auction. Tangie Ciarvole, a licensed auctioneer, will con-duct the auction.
Please call 828-749-3789 for delivery information.
Mark your calendar for the tour of homes on Saturday, June 4, from 1 – 5 p.m., as part of Saluda’s 130th Anniversary Celebration sponsored by the Saluda Historic Committee.
With food costs so high, consider participating in the Robinson Community Garden located on Henderson Street; this is the fourth year for the garden, which is generously sponsored by SCLT and PCCF.
The next general meeting to sign a contract will be Tuesday, April 12 at 6:30, upstairs at the Saluda Library. Plots will be as-signed, so be sure to come and get your name in the pot for your

Friendship Council presents ‘Soundtrack for a Revolution’ March 26
Thermal Belt Friendship Council will present a viewing of the “Soundtrack for a Revo-lution” on Saturday, March 26 at noon. The program will be held at Congregational Church, located at 210 Melrose Avenue in Tryon, as part of the Thermal Belt Friendship Council’s con-tinuing Black History Month celebrations. The program is free to participants, and a light lunch will be provided by the Thermal Belt Friendship Council.
As reported by the produc-er’s website, www.soundtrack-f o r a r e v o l u t i o n f i l m . c o m , “‘Soundtrack for a Revolution’ tells the story of the American civil rights movement through its powerful music - the freedom songs protesters sang on picket lines, in mass meetings, in paddy wagons, and in jail cells as they fought for justice and equality. The film features new perfor-mances of the freedom songs by top artists, including John Legend, Joss Stone, Wyclef Jean and The Roots; riveting archival footage; and interviews with civil rights foot soldiers and leaders,
including Congressman John Lewis, Harry Belafonte, Julian Bond and Ambassador Andrew Young.
“The freedom songs evolved from slave chants, from the labor movement and especially from the Black church. The music en-abled Blacks to sing words they could not say, and it was crucial in helping the protesters as they faced down brutal aggression with dignity and non-violence. The infectious energy of the songs swept people up and em-powered them to fight for their rights.
“‘Soundtrack for a Revolu-tion’ celebrates the vitality of this music. Directed by Bill Guttentag and Dan Sturman and executive produced by Danny Glover, ‘Soundtrack for a Revo-lution’ is a vibrant blend of heart-wrenching interviews, dramatic images, and thrilling contemporary performances - a film of significance, energy and power.”

Guided wildflower walks in Pearson’s Falls Tuesdays
Hepatica, toad-shade trillium, violets, bloodroot and more are blooming in Pearson’s Falls. Learn to recognize these plants and non-flowering plants on one or all of the Tryon Garden Club’s guided wildflower identification walks on Tuesday afternoons at 1:30 p.m. beginning March 29 through April 26.
“The wildflowers in Pearson’s Falls bloom early, before the leaf cover of the trees comes out. By May, most of the flowers on the plants will be gone,” Millie Pear-son told the group who joined her last spring for the wildflower iden-tification walk. “Each week we see different flowers blooming.”
The first walk will be led by Phil Nesbitt on March 29. On April 5 the walk will be led by Mary Clare Jenks. On April 12, Jenny Lellinger will focus on the ferns in Pearson’s Falls. Millie Pearson will lead the walk on April 19 and members of the Tryon Garden Club will lead the guided walk on April 26.
Class size is limited, so prereg-istration is suggested.
If you are interested in at-tending one or all of these walks, contact the Tryon Garden Club at 828-817-0382. There is a small fee for each walk, plus admission to Pearson’s Falls.

Humane Society Special Cases
Leonard Rizzo
It was sometime in 1996 when he came into being.
He was the cutest little fur ball with striking colors that seemed to be painted on.
He sported a creamy white coat with variations of browns and gold that ranged from ma-hogany to an orange tint. The effect was darling, which by the way was his first name.
His breed was never fully de-termined but I’ll tell you this, if anyone could duplicate it, they’d have a grand champion.
Somewhere between the ages of 2 and 3, he wound up at the shelter. For ignorant reasons that I’m aware of but won’t go into, he bounced from home to home. Pat Viera, who was on the board at the time, was asked to foster him, but she’d have none of it, he was adopted and brought into his sixth and final home.
Now Harry, Pat’s husband, was more into manly dogs so he promptly named him Percival, denoting the dandy from The Scarlet Pimpernel. There are literally hundreds of photographs of Percy in various poses and outfits, some of which have been in magazines.
Pat says laughing, “If Percy saw a camera, he would strike a pose.”
Sir Percy was already an old man when I met him a few years ago after my tale, “When Harry met Mandy.”
Mandy is a Shepherd Husky mix and when Harry saw her he said, “Now that’s a dog.” But Harry was all bluster and I’m
Lord Percival and his courtcertain he loved Percy just as much as Pat did.
We lost this larger than life man two years ago and to the end Mandy nev-er left his side.
A few months af te r Harry’s passing, Lexi joined the team. L e x i i s t h e sweetest little girl with a silky black coat. She quickly became the mother hen of the group. Again Pat adopted her after my tale of her being bounced around. Six months ago, Isabelle came in as a puppy. Pat says I had a hand in that also. Isabelle is like a tall
fiest or mountain cur, all tan and full of herself.
Pat laughs and says, “I in-tended to call
her Belle for beautiful but now she’s just Izzy.”
I’ve often visited Percy and the girls and witnessed first hand Mandy washing his ears or Lexi and Izzy laying down with him. The girls would rush to greet me first and then would part as Percy trotted over, wagging his little nubbed tail.
Percy has been failing these past few months. He’s 15 after all. I have been visiting as often as I could, knowing that each visit might be my last.
No matter what, Percy would rise up and come over for his moment of loving, which I was
honored to give. Always before leaving I’d spend some time ly-ing on the floor with him asking him to hang on but silently saying goodbye.
No expense was spared to keep Sir Percy as comfortable as possible.
Two weeks ago Percy went out with the girls and just laid down in the yard. When the girls came back without him, Pat went out to check on him.
Percy looked up at Pat with those eyes that carried more expression than I’ve ever seen in any other dog and said, “Thanks Mom for everything but I think it’s time for my final home.” Pat’s sister, Jeanette and Dr. Maiola were called and when I received the news I literally wept.
I wish I could give you a better tribute old friend, but I’ll tell you this, “You certainly left your paw print on a great many hearts.” So goodbye, Sir Percy and thank you for the time we’ve shared. I promise I will keep an eye on your court for you.
Thanks for listening.

UNCSA seeking high school students in dance, drama, music, visual arts
This spring, the University of North Carolina School of the Arts (UNCSA) will conduct auditions and interviews for its high school programs in dance, drama, music and visual arts for fall 2011 enrollment.
Students interested in attend-ing the School of Dance (grades 9-12) may audition March 26.
Students interested in at-tending the School of Drama’s high school program for 12th-graders may audition April 9, 16 and 23.
Students interested in attend-ing the School of Music (grades 9-12) may audition April 8 and May 6. (Brass applicants should call the School of Music at 336-770-3260 to schedule an audition.)
Students interested in attend-ing the high school Visual Arts Program for 11th- and 12th-graders may interview March 25 and April 1, 8, 15 and 22.
North Carolina students should note that the state of North Carolina pays the full cost of attending UNCSA (tuition, fees and room and board) for in-state students who are accepted into the high school program.
The auditions and inter-views will be conducted on the UNCSA campus, located at 1533 South Main St. in
Winston-Salem. For more in-formation, email the office of admissions at admissions@uncsa.edu; visit the school’s website at www.uncsa.edu; or call 336-770-3290.
All high school programs re-quire academic courses through UNCSA’s High School Aca-demic Program and award a high school diploma upon graduation.
The University of North Carolina School of the Arts is the first state-supported, resi-dential school of its kind in the nation. Established as the North Carolina School of the Arts by the N.C. General Assembly in 1963, UNCSA opened in Win-ston-Salem (“The City of Arts and Innovation”) in 1965 and became part of the University of North Carolina system in 1972.
More than 1,100 students from high school through grad-uate school train for careers in the arts in five professional schools: dance, design and production (including a visual arts program), drama, filmmak-ing and music. UNCSA is the state’s only public arts conser-vatory, dedicated entirely to the professional training of talented students in the performing, visual and moving image arts.

Bee pollen - best diet supplement When doing nutritional coun-
seling, or seminars, I’m often asked which diet supplements I “take” as well as recommend. I get a few raised eyebrows when I tell folks that if I could take only one nutritional sup-plement, I would choose “bee pollen.” That’s right, bee pol-len.
This may seem strange, but did you know bee pollen is actually a unique and powerful food? Honeybees eat pollen, because they need incredible amounts of energy to fly on average 15 miles per hour and visit as many as 1,200 flowers in one flight.
Bee pollen has been used for centuries by cultures all over the world for its energy and healing effects? In fact “Hippocrates” wrote on the healthful benefits of bee pollen.
First, let’s look at “what” bee pollen is. Pollen comes
from the male “stamen” of flowers. “Bee pollen” is cre-ated when worker honey bees
transport pollen granules to their nest with specially ar-ranged hairs on their hind legs. When honey bees arrive back at the hive, they have to crawl up through a series of ¼ wiring to enter. This process harmlessly scrapes the pollen from the bee’s legs and body, and drops it down into a collection tray. After the pollen has been col-lected, it’s sifted, then frozen.
Now we know what bee pol-len is, but what makes it such a “super food?”
First, bee pollen contains over 5,000 enzymes and co-enzymes, which is more than any other food. Enzymes are specific proteins that catalyze
chemical reactions in the body. Catalyze is just a fancy word for speedup. These enzymatic reactions are necessary for ev-erything from muscle contrac-tion, to using the nutrients in our food, to breathing. In fact, without enzymes, life couldn’t even exist.
Bee pollen is 40 percent pure protein, which makes it denser in protein than any source of protein from animals. It’s also a safer source of protein, when compared with animal proteins, because it doesn’t contain saturated fats. Also, bee pollen contains 18 vitamins, 25 miner-als, 59 trace elements, 14 fatty acids, and is extremely rich in carotenes, which are precursors of vitamin A.
It’s also rich in B complex, vitamins C, D, E and Lecithin, which is a lipid that helps keep cell membranes healthy.

each year. However, this year is different. This year with so many family
and friends facing tough times, through no fault of their own, I am thankful that I am/can pay
taxes.T h i s y e a r
I am thankful that I will have a v i s i t w i t h my Uncle Sam and will write
h i m a n i c e c h e c k . My prayer is for all Americans to have the same honor next year.
Betty Ramsey is the publisher of the Tryon Daily Bulletin. Her email address is betty.ramsey@tryondailybulletin.com.
It’s quickly approaching April and with it comes my annual “catch up” visit with my Uncle Sam.
I wish I could say this was a visit I eagerly awaited and looked forward to each year, but that wouldn’t be the t ruth. His annual visits are something I never look for-ward to and have always been bitter sweet.
Sweet because I am proud to be counted in the American family and glad I can do my part. Bitter because the annual visits seems to cost more and more
Thankful for ability to pay taxes
Publisher’s Notebookby Betty Ramsey
Bee pollen is not only the richest source of vitamins found in nature, it’s also the richest source of rutin. Rutin is in a class of flavinoids that also contain querctin, hesperidin, eriodicyl and citron.
These flavinoids are essen-tial for the absorption of vita-min C. Rutin is an important nutritional supplement because of its ability to strengthen capillaries. This action helps people with arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), high blood pressure or venous insufficiency.
There are also trace ele-ments found in bee pollen that modern science can’t even identify. That is believed to be another reason bee pollen packs such a nutritional punch. By the way, bee pollen is good for dogs, cats and even horses.
Bee pollen is available in health food stores in many va-rieties such as whole granules, wafers, powders and capsules.
I recommend to start taking bee pollen slowly. Any bee product could cause allergic reactions in some people. I
recommend to start taking bee pollen by placing a couple of granules under your tongue to test for sensitivity, like sneez-ing, itching, swelling, rash or flushing. If you experience any allergic reaction, seek medical help. If no allergic reaction oc-curs, gradually increase to 1 to 2 tsp. a day or more.
Pollen granules do have “cell walls” so chew for better nutrient absorption. Just be-cause you have pollen allergies doesn’t mean you can’t take bee pollen. Pollens responsible for allergies are airborne or anemphilous. The type of pol-len collected by bees is called entomophilous.
Pregnant women howev-er, should not take bee pol-len. Also, nursing mothers shouldn’t.

Volunteers are heart of Blue Ridge BBQ festival“The music is great. The
barbecue is the best. But it's the volunteers who make it work,” Blue Ridge BBQ Festival orga-nizers said.
“It’s amazing that this whole thing is run by volunteers,” said Allison Gillespie, volunteer coordinator. “It’s astounding. There is not one paid position. We do it for the love of the fes-tival, the love of the community and because we love people.”
And it’s that time again – time for volunteers to start signing up and getting involved. The festival needs between 300
and 500 community volunteers to make it happen.
Duncan Ely, volunteer coor-dinator working with Gillespie, said, “This is a community festi-val, and community volunteers – whether long-timers or first-timers, individuals, families or groups – make it happen.”
Volunteers were disappoint-ed last year when they thought the festival might be canceled. When it was announced the festival was still on, they came out in force to show their sup-port. This year there’s a new leader, Chuck Britton, and a
new entertainment commit-tee led by Brook Hannon and Benton Wharton. Hannon and Wharton landed country music star Chuck Wicks, who will be performing on the main stage at 9:30 p.m. Friday night.
Britton promises volunteers will be well taken care of this year. Last year, because of money (or rather, lack of it), volunteers weren’t given food tickets.
Britton said, “We are trying something new this year and the volunteers will be fed.”
That’s in addition to getting
the highly coveted “Volunteer” T-shirt.
Signing up online to volun-teer is easy and there are lots of positions to sign up for. To sign up, visit BlueRidgeBBQ-Festival.com.
The festival is conducted annually under the auspices of the Carolina Foothills Chamber of Commerce.
For further information and for sponsorship opportuni-ties, call the festival office at 828-859-RIBS (7427) or visit BlueRidgeBBQFestival.com.

Letter to the EditorEminent domain not considered for railroad project
To the Editor: In his recent letter to the edi-
tor, Keith Holbert suggested that County Commissioners might use “imminent domain” to take property along the railroad tracks in Polk County.
Nothing could be further from the truth, and Mr. Holbert well knows it.
Only Mr. Holbert brought up that possibility at a recent com-missioners meeting, wanting to frighten people when there is no basis to do so.
I personally stated at that meet-ing, quite clearly, that I would never vote to use eminent domain to take property along the railroad for a rails/trails project. Mr. Holbert heard me say that. I was looking straight at him when I said it. I know that Commissioners Walker and Gasperson fully agree with me.
At the same meeting, it was also clearly explained that the county would be taking no role in a rails/trails project; it is solely a private effort by private citizens unrelated to the county. No tax money will be contributed by the county.
And, at the very same meeting the county manager reported that the Norfolk & Southern Railroad had unequivocally stated that it would not allow its right-of-way to be used for a rails/trails project. The whole issue is moot.
So why is Mr. Holbert still working so hard to stir this up?

Wolverines blank Mitchell Mountaineers 16-0 by Daniel Hecht
On a warm spring evening Tuesday, March 22, a loose and relaxed Wolverines team took the field at Polk County High, pre-paring to host the Mountaineers of Mitchell County.
Getting set to play their sec-ond conference game of the season, Coach Ty Stott’s squad was quietly confident, and with good reason.
Polk had won their first con-ference game on the road by a score of 12-0 at Mountain Heri-tage Friday, and had trampled rival Landrum 17-5 in a non-conference match just 24 hours earlier.
Other teams that had aver-aged 15 runs per game in their previous two outings might have been excused for easing off the offensive throttle a bit, but Polk County isn’t just any other base-ball team.
With their focus scope locked on a third straight Western High-lands conference title, it was pedal to the metal all the way, as the Wolverines crushed the visi-tors from Bakersville 16-0, in a game called by mercy rule after five innings.
Offensively, the Wolverines were led by Dakota Turner, who went 2 for 2 with an RBI single and a three-run homer, winding up with four RBIs on the night.
Alec Philpott added four RBIs as well, going 1 for 2 at the plate with a grand slam home run. Other standouts included Andre Overholt (2 for 3) and Lucas Cash (2 for 2), though Polk’s hit show was a true team effort as eleven different Wolverines drew blood at the plate.
Polk’s pitching staff continued to vex opponents, as the Moun-taineers were held to just two hits on the night. Turner took the hill to start the game and put in a solid four innings of work, striking out four while walking none and earning the win.
Joel Booker relieved Turn-er in the fifth inning and was impressive in his first appear-ance on the mound, striking out all three of the final Mitchell batters to preserve the victory. Asked if he intended to work Booker into the regular pitching rotation, Stott answered prag-matically.
“We’re going to have to, be-cause we only have three other pitchers right now, so we’re doing it out of necessity,” said Stott, referring to the absence of staff ace Lucas Cash, who continues to be nagged by an arm injury.
Stott expressed confidence in Booker’s pitching ability, add-ing “We’ve known we’re going to need an extra arm for a while now, and we feel he’s probably
going to be very good at it.” Polk (5-1, 2-0) resumes con-
ference play on Friday, March 25 at home versus Avery.

LHS Cardinal tennis team reaches for first winby JB Wilson
On a sunny Tuesday afternoon, the Landrum men’s varsity tennis team sought their first team victory of the season against Greer.
The Cardinals weren’t able to notch a ‘W,’ but there were several positives to take away from the match; most notably the return of
the team’s best player and leader. Sophomore Harry Reed re-
turned to action, having missed the previous two Landrum matches with a nagging ankle injury.
According to Reed’s father, the sophomore came back ready to go.
“Harry just got off crutches only three days ago.”
Perhaps the layoff was a good thing for Reed, as he was the only player to win his match March 22, defeating Greer’s number one singles player handily 6-2, 6-1.
Landrum Head Coach Deon Brice before the match said he was happy to have the sophomore back on the court.
“Harry is a great kid, and a re-ally competitive kid too. He is defi-nitely our team leader,” Brice said.
Those are very strong words for only a sophomore on a varsity squad. Then again, the Landrum tennis team is relatively young

itself, competing in only its second season and first in regional play.
“We are very young,” Brice said. “We’ve got a junior in Na-than Williams and a sophomore in Harry, but the rest of the team is eighth graders.”
Fortunately for Landrum’s yung squad, they have a player like Reed who leads by example both on and off the court. Reed is an accomplished player, ranking 80th in South Carolina’s U-16 USTA standings. As a freshman he was
awarded the team’s Most Valuable Player honor.
Reed hopes to continue his tennis career in college, having al-ready begun talks with elite schools such as West Point, Washington & Lee, University of South Carolina and the University of Georgia.
While none of Landrum’s other players were able to walk away with wins in yesterday’s match, junior Nathan Williams put forth a strong effort in the number two spot, losing in a very competitive match 6-4, 7-5.
Landrum played an away match against Chapman Thursday.

Lee C. Mulligan, Esq.Keeping Documents Safe
Q. Where should I keep my estate planning documents?a. In North Carolina only the original will may be presented for probate. Lack of an original will causes problems and administrative delays at the very least and for that reason, your will should be secured in a safe place. a bank safe deposit box may not be the best place since banks may seal the box upon your death. Many clients prefer their attorneys store the will to assure its availability for probate and they retain a copy for their records. If you do this, make sure the copy of your will bears a legend stating where the original may be located. More than one trust agreement may be executed; duplicate or even triplicate originals may be stored in different locations. It is never a good idea to write on or attempt to revise your documents. Later entries on a will or trust create uncertainty with respect to the intent of the creator requiring lengthy court proceedings to resolve. Call (828) 696 1811 for info on this or other planning techniques. sass-032291

Dear Savvy SeniorI’m about to reach the “donut
hole” coverage gap for my Medi-care Part D plan. I would like to find out how the new discounts that Medicare is now offering works, and any other suggestions you may have on how to save on my prescription drugs.
Paying Too Much
Dear PayingFor millions of seniors, the
downside to Medicare’s Part D prescription drug plans has always been the coverage gap – also known as the donut hole. But starting this year (in 2011), fi-nancial relief is available. Here’s what you should know.
Donut Hole DiscountsAs part of the new health care
reform law, Medicare Part D ben-eficiaries that reach the donut hole this year will receive a 50 percent discount on their brand-name drugs, and a 7 percent discount on their generic medications.
How it will work is once your total drug costs for 2011 reaches $2,840 (that includes your share and the insurer’s share of the costs), you’ll get a 50 percent discount on your brand-name prescription drugs when you purchase them at the pharmacy or through the mail.
Then, after your out-of-pocket costs reach $4,550 for the year, you’ll qualify for catastrophic coverage and your Part D plan will pick up around 95 percent of your tab.
With these discounts, it’s important to understand that the entire cost of the drug (including the 50 percent discount and the 50
percent you pay) will be counted toward the amount you need to fill the coverage gap. The discounts will not leave you stuck in the donut hole longer!
In addition to the brand-name drug discounts, the government is also providing a 7 percent discount on generic drugs during the coverage gap. You will pay the remaining 93 percent of that price. But when you purchase generic drugs, only the 93 percent that you pay will count towards leaving the donut hole.
You can find more detailed in-formation on Medicare’s new do-nut hole drug discounts at www.closingthecoveragegap.info.
Other Cost CuttersIn addition to the discounts,
there are other things you can try to lower your drug costs in the donut hole. For starters, ask your doctor if there’s a generic or less-expensive brand-name drug you could switch to. About 75 percent of all premiums drugs on the market today have a lower-cost alternative.
You may also be able to save money by finding pharmacies that offer lower prices or by using a mail-order pharmacy. To find cost savings information on generics, less expensive brand-name drugs, and mail-order pharmacies see www.medicare.gov/find-a- plan.
Another cost cutter is to buy your medications in bulk. Many pharmacies give discounts if you buy a three-month supply of drugs versus a 30-day supply. Also, find out from your doctor
or pharmacist if the pills you’re taking can be cut in half. Pill split-ting allows you to get two months worth of medicine for the price of one. If they can be split safely, you’ll need to get a prescription from your doctor for twice the dosage you need.
Low Income AssistanceIf you’re living on a limited
income, you may be eligible for “Extra Help” paying for your prescription drugs. To be eligible, your annual income must be less than $16,245 for an individual and $21,855 for a married couple living together. And your assets must be limited to $12,640 for singles and $25,260 for married couples.
The value of your home and automobiles are excluded. To learn more call Social Security at 800-772-1213 or see www.ssa.gov/prescriptionhelp.
In addition to the Extra Help program, some pharmaceutical companies offer discounts that help seniors enrolled in Medicare drug plans (see www.medicare.gov/pap).
And many states offer help in paying drug plan premiums and/or other drug costs. Find out if your state has a program by visit-ing www.medicare.gov/spap.asp. Also visit www.benefitscheckup.org to search for national and community-based charitable programs that can help with your drug costs.
Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit Sav-vySenior.org.
