Commissioner Cindy Walker said the sheriff had just asked the county to hold off; she asked commissioners to do what he requested and wait until next month to decide. “I’m glad we can support getting a car but let’s let him get a hold on his finances,” Walker said. “I look favorably on it but would like to let him do what he’s asked.” Hill said he would feel more comfortable knowing he has the money because he doesn’t want to commit to something then have to come back to the board and ask for more money. He also said there’s a possibility he can fund a new car completely with federal seizure money depending on when the sheriff’s office receives it. Whitson also said he is not too worried about the bills for housing female inmates, because housing them in Polk County would cost much more than housing them elsewhere. “We’re a whole lot better off not housing female prisoners,” Whitson said. Commissioners plan to resume discussions regarding a new car in April.

‘Autism 101’ program at Polk County Public Library tomorrow On Tuesday, March 27 at 6 p.m., the Polk County/Foothills Area Parent Support Group will host a free, special event to help kick off April’s Autism Awareness Month. The program will be held in the community room of the Polk County Public Library (Columbus). Jean Alvarez, from the North Carolina Autism Society in Asheville, will discuss the basics of autism, including a general
overview of autism spectrum disorder. Through the use of examples, personal stories and videos, participants will gain a better understanding of the primary characteristics of autism, how people can be affected, as well as strategies for improving interactions. Autism is a condition characterized by impairments in communication, social interaction and stereotyped or repetitive
behaviors. Autism, Asperger’s syndrome and PPD-NOS can dramatically affect a child’s life, as well as that of their families, schools, friends and the wider community. No one knows with certainty what has caused autism prevalence--which has increased roughly ten-fold in the past 40 years. Early diagnosis, therapy and behavioral strategies can make a significant difference in the long term.
The Polk County/Foothills Area Parent Support Group is sponsored by the Autism Society of North Carolina. Meetings offer an educational focus in addition to support for one another. For information regarding the parent support group, contact Tracey Daniels at tracey@ mmpublicity.com, with “support group” in the subject line. – article submitted by Tracey Daniels
• Joint water line
ter line already shared between Columbus and Tryon. Previously, Tryon could send water to Columbus, but Columbus could not send water to Tryon. The new valve, along with a booster pump installed along Hwy. 108, across from the Old 19 intersection, will allow Tryon and Columbus to exchange water. The towns decided a few years ago to connect their water sources in order to provide backup for one another after a severe
drought forced the towns to enact mandatory water restrictions for customers. The line was made possible through a $1.73 million grant that the towns shared from the N.C. Rural Center and a $300,000 grant from the Appalachian Regional Commission. Each town will also share the financing of $1.43 million obtained from the North Carolina Drinking Water Fund, which is a no-interest loan. The project included the con-
struction of the water line, the construction of an 85,000-gallon water storage tank and the valve and booster pump to connect Columbus. Saluda plans to add an additional 18 customers to its water system on the new line. Tryon expects to add about six new customers to its system with potential in the future to add as many as 12. The public is welcome to attend tomorrow’s meeting.

Tryon can install taps along about half of the line and Saluda can install taps on the other half. Columbus also has ownership in the line and is connected through a valve installed on a wa-

Have you ever wanted to sing or play music in front of a crowd? Do you have some friends who would like to perform some live music in Tryon? Does an evening of hearing different musicians jamming together sound like fun? The Tryon Downtown Development Association (TDDA) has announced a new event for this year’s April Fools Festival: the April Fool’s Jam. It will be held at Sunnydale (next to IGA) on Friday, March 30 from 7 to 10 p.m. The Trophy Husbands will play opening and closing sets and will provide musical equipment for musicians to sign up and “jam.” Here’s how it will work. All of the gear will be there: PA system, guitar and bass amps, a digital keyboard. Just bring your instrument, and drummers will want to bring snare, cymbals and sticks. If there is something that you feel is necessary to perform (such
as an amp), bring it along. The goal is to keep set-up time to a minimum and the jamming to a maximum. There will be a sign-up sheet at the door, and groups of up to six players will be assigned times to play their 20-minute sets. Each group will be given a five-minute signal when their time is running out, and they will be expected to stop after their 20 minutes. Once you are assigned a time, be sure that everyone is present 30 minutes before your set. Organizers said they will try to have no more than 10 minutes between groups. So put the evening of Friday, March 30 on your calendar and start practicing. If you have any questions, contact Rich Nelson at 828817-3784 or rich@richnelson. com. – article submitted by Linda Byington

Knife making workshop at Tryon Arts and Crafts School April 8 Tryon Arts and Crafts School will host a two-day knife-making workshop on Saturday, April 7 and Sunday, April 8 (Easter weekend), with bladesmith Chuck Brooks. In this workshop, students will forge a knife blade, start a wood handle and create at least one fullyfunctional tool. They will learn to forge, heat treat, temper and grind knife blades that can be attached to a bone, antler or wood handle. The goal of this class is to bring students to a basic understanding of knife design and workmanship in the forge. Chuck Brooks made his first usable knife in 1981 from a power hacksaw blade, when he wanted to learn to make a functional knife with some design appeal. At the time, there were no instructors in blade making to be found. In 1998, 17 years later, he took his first blade
class from Karl Schroen in California. In 1999, Chuck attended an introduction to bladesmithing class at the American Bladesmith Society School located in Old Washington, Ark. He then added the handles and guards class. Brooks has taken several mastersmith workshops for specialized training, learning to make Damascus steel, leather sheaths and fancy file work on the spine of the blade. Brooks sells his knives at several shows around the country. This workshop falls on Easter weekend because this was the only time Tryon Arts and Crafts School could host it before next fall because of his heavy schedule. The workshop will run from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday. Students need to bring lunch, beverages, snacks, protective eyewear, leather gloves and

examples of projects are available on the Tryon Arts and Crafts website, www.TryonArtsandCrafts. org. Tryon Arts and Crafts is a nonprofit crafts school located at 373 Harmon Field Road in Tryon. – article submitted by Julia McIntyre

New Montessori school to open in Saluda this fall Enrollment currently under way
Local parents seeking a unique learning community for their young children will have a new option in the fall. A Thousand Forests Montessori School will open its doors in Saluda this August. The half-day program will follow a Montessori curriculum designed to serve the unique intellectual, social, emotional and physical needs of children 2½ to 6 years old. A l l i s o n D a u g h e r t y, t h e school’s founder and lead teacher, said she was inspired by her own experience attending a Montessori school as a child and by observing her mother’s Montessori classroom later on. After completing her primary training at the Montessori Institute Northwest in Portland, Ore., Daugherty earned a master’s degree in Montessori Primary Education from Loyola College in Baltimore, Md. and is certified by The Association Montessori Internationale (AMI), which was founded in 1929 by Dr. Maria Montessori. Dr. Maria Montessori was an Italian physician and educator who began working with children
in the late 19th century. Through observation, she developed a new approach to education that followed the child’s natural path of development, emphasizing independent discovery in a mixed-age environment and the freedom for each child to choose their own activities. Dr. Montessori said she believed the ultimate goal of education should be the creation of a peaceful world. As a six-time nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize, she saw in children a natural tendency to love, to reach out to and respect other human beings and to act as stewards of the natural world. Today, Montessori is a household name, and there are about 20,000 Montessori schools in operation across the globe. At A Thousand Forests, children will explore nine areas of curriculum: practical life, sensorial, language, mathematics, art, music, science, geography and peace education. The primary program is designed to foster confidence, compassion and independence by providing a child-centered learning environment filled with concrete, selfcorrecting materials that meet the developmental needs of the

young child. The new school is currently under construction in Top of the Morning, the Saluda music store of Allison’s mother, Jan Daugherty. In addition to closing her retail shop to make way for the school, Jan is selling her entire inventory of musical instruments at reduced prices, with proceeds going to support A Thousand Forests. Jan will continue to teach music lessons in the community after the store has closed and will offer Suzuki violin lessons to enrolled students during school hours in the fall. A free information session will be held on Sunday, April 15 at 4 p.m. at the school, located on Main Street/Hwy. 176 in Saluda,
across from the Green River Bar-B-Que. The session will offer parents the opportunity to learn more about the school and the Montessori Method. An open house for prospective students and their families will be scheduled closer to the start of the school year after construction is complete. Space is limited to 12 students for the upcoming year, and enrollment is currently under way. To register for the information session or to learn more about the school, call 828-6062899, email aedaugherty111@ yahoo.com or visit athousandforestsmontessori.com. – article submitted by Allison Daugherty
Barton of Pro Physical Therapy completes training course Kyle Barton, physical therapist assistant at Pro Physical Therapy in Columbus, recently attended a four-day course for manual therapy techniques for the peripheral joints, including the upper and lower extremities. Common types of orthopedic manual therapies include passive stretching, mobilization and manipulation. Studies have
shown that when manual therapy is added to a supervised exercise program, patients have a 70-percent decrease in pain, 16-percent increase in strength and 35-percent increase in overall function. According to the studies, peripheral joint mobilizations are safer than spinal mobilizations, thus a wider range of patients will benefit from these manual techniques.
Barton has worked with Pro Physical Therapy since he graduated from Greenville Tech in 2008 as a physical therapist assistant. He also leads the aquatic therapy program on Tuesdays and Thursdays. For further information, contact Pro at 828-894-0277. – article submitted by Tammy Warren

Business sponsors contribute to Tryon April Fool’s Festival When the Tryon April Fool’s Festival kicks off on Friday, March 30, it will be because of sponsorship of the first-ever Fool’s Jam by Costco, a national retailer operating in Spartanburg, and Main Street Financial, with offices in Tryon and Forest City. The Jam starts at 7 p.m. at Sunnydale, with The Trophy Husbands playing the first set, before regional musicians join up to form their own groups. On Saturday, March 31, Tryon IGA presents a new race, the TP Trot, which involves grocery carts charging toward the finish line while team members lob projectile rolls of toilet paper into the carts. Stott’s Ford takes the lead this year in sponsoring the Outhouse Races, the key event of the festival since its inception in 2006. Stott’s will also provide a parade and showing of classic Mustangs for the enjoyment of festival-goers. On Saturday at 4 p.m., Tryon
House Apparel and Thompson Landscape Professionals present the Trashion Show, a runway show of apparel and accessories made exclusively from recycled materials. The crowning event of the 2012 April Fool’s Festival, the Masquerade Fool’s Ball, is sponsored by Owens Pharmacy and Vines & Stuff, both of Tryon, and will feature music by the Carburetors at 7 p.m. at historic Sunnydale. Festival organizers say without the support of businesses and the many volunteers, the festival would not be able to grow and attract more people to Tryon for the festival weekend. The festival is organized each year by the Tryon Downtown Development Association, a 501c3 non-profit dedicated to the revitalization of downtown Tryon. – article submitted by Linda Byington

Lady Wolverines varsity softball grabs another win March 22 Hrobak puts away third perfect game by Samantha Hurst
The Lady Wolverines of Polk County redeemed themselves after their loss to Madison this week with a dominating defeat over Avery County 9-0 Thursday, March 22. Highlighting the evening was the third perfect game for Jamie Hrobak and solid hitting across the board for PCHS, said Softball Head Coach Jeff Wilson. Alyssa Montgomery ended the evening with two hits and two runs, while Yancey Pace went 3-2, Chelsea Kelly 2-1
and Katie Ruff 2-1. On defense, Wilson said Shalyn Brown made a 20-yard run in to grab a hit, while freshman catcher Ashley Kropp pulled a solid game for the 10th time in this season. PCHS currently stands at 9-1 overall and 2-1 in the Western Highlands Conference. The junior varsity softball team, meanwhile, faced North Henderson High School at home Thursday night. JV had a 3-1 record heading into this game and showed they were ready to play early on in the evening, but lost steam as the game went on letting the Knights come back for the win 10-6. Pitching for
