Two new faces at Town Hall

There is a lot going on in Jamestown these days and much more planned for the future. To help keep up with the projects and growth, two new staff members have joined their associates at Town Hall.

Jason Pegram

Jason Pegram started work as assistant director of Public Services on April 10. The 42-yearold Greensboro native graduated from NC A&T and worked with Summit Design and Engineering for 18 years. He

specialized in municipal and vertical construction, which is, obviously, anything built vertically like buildings, not roadways.

In his position with Summit, Pegram worked with the Town of Jamestown on the East Fork Pedestrian Bridge and East Main Street Sidewalk projects. He has been studying specifics about the upcoming D.R. Horton development. He will be working mainly with sanitation — water and sewer. Since this is a new position, his actual duties are still being determined.

“I’ve been working with the water issues — how do we get to a satisfac-

tory conclusion,” Pegram said, “project management and coordination, fielding homeowner complaints, etc.”

members of moaa continue to serve

It was not entirely the meeting the board members of the Piedmont NC Chapter of MOAA (Military Officers Association of America) had originally planned. But the group’s Meet and Greet held April 22 at Jamestown Park Club House was still considered successful by those who attended. According to an email from guest speaker Captain Frank Michael, program director of Council and Chapter Affairs for the National MOAA, to Lee Richmond, Lt. Col. USAF, Ret. and president of the Piedmont MOAA chapter, it was a “wonderful and moving” experience.

MOAA was founded in 1923 to, as a group, assist and advise other military officers. The group changed its name from Retired Officers Association to Military Officers Association of America in 2003 and an act of congress later granted the organization a federal charter.

Today MOAA is the country’s largest military officers’ association. It includes officers from all branches of the service,

Settling in Both Ashby and Pegram agree that the people they work with in Jamestown are great. “The guys are like brothers,” Pegram said. “They bicker a little amongst themselves but it’s in good fun and they have each other’s backs. That’s important.”

New sign recognizes the ghost Lydia

One of Jamestown’s most famous “personages” has received official recognition. Not bad, considering the recipient is a ghost.

A sign erected on May 5 on the Jamestown side of the underpass on East Main Street now recognizes Lydia, the famous hitchhiker. Many have heard the story: Lydia appears from time to time on a rainy night looking for a ride home following a car accident at the old underpass. When the driver takes her to the address, he turns to her in the back seat — but she is not there. After knocking on the door of the house, he (it is usually a man who picks her up) learns the daughter of the house died several years ago.

The sign project was spearheaded by Dan Sellers with Carolina Haints, Inc., a nonprofit organization devoted to promoting ghosts tales, folklore legends, unexplained mysteries, dark history and true crime stories of the Carolinas. It is in its seventh year of podcasts, available at www.wreakhavocproductions. com/carolinahaints.

“The Town did an amazing job refurbishing this [underpass] and making it user-friendly,” Sellers said. “The only

All Saints Church reaches out to the community

Upstairs, downstairs, indoors and sometimes outdoors — the annual rummage sale at All Saints Church on Wayne Road in Greensboro is too big to occupy just one space. This year’s event will be held May 20 from 7 a.m. to noon and prove to have something for everyone as it has for 30 plus years.

Photos submitted a picture from the past shows tables, racks and shelves filled with bargains.

Books, games, clothing, household items, jewelry, collectables, china, crystal, pottery, tools, electronics, medical supplies and furniture will be among the many treasures available at the sale.

“There are not many donated items that

we don’t take,” said Linda Bedell, chair of the event. “We do not, however, take old televisions that are not flat screen. We collect items all year. It is a lot of work, but we do it to give back to the community.”

thing missing was something officially acknowledging the legend for visitors. It’s an important piece of the fabric of Jamestown.”

The marker reads: “Lydia’s Bridge. Since the 1920s, apparition of a young woman has been seen hitchhiking here, only to disappear when drivers come to her aid.”

The new sign is part of the Legends and Lore marker system from the William C. Pomeroy Foundation. The

Council to approve new budget

Approval of the 2023-24

Fiscal Year budget and Capital Improvement Plan tops the agenda for the May 16 Town Council meeting.

The budget of $7,021,235 ($2,557,000 less that the current budget) has been discussed by the Council in three previous special meetings and members received the preliminary figures in their April Town Council packet. The budget must be approved by June 30 to go into effect July 1 of this year.

Council will see the Comprehensive Bicycle and

Pedestrian Plan for the town and will have the opportunity to comment on it. A vote to approve it will be at a future date.

The Council will also consider adopting a Pay Classification Study.

Under new business, the Council will consider the appointment of a new Parks and Recreation Committee Member, approval of financing for equipment for Jamestown Park and Golf Course, and awarding a contract to an auditing firm for the 2022-23 fiscal year.

The Council will meet at 6 p.m. in the Civic Center at Town Hall on May 16. The public is invited to attend.

both active and retired, and their families. But its voice reaches beyond officers, to speak on behalf of securing compensation and benefits for every member of the military. Its mission is “to advocate for our military community and connect it to the nation we serve and to promote and protect a strong national defense.”

Once a year national and state MOAA leaders meet with members of Congress speaking with as many as possible during the one-day event. They discuss needs and benefits for members of all branches of the military. One benefit in North Carolina, resulting from the state’s Supreme Court’s decision in Bailey v. State of North Carolina, says that North Carolina may not tax some retirement benefits received from certain defined benefit plans, if the retiree had five or more years of creditable service as of August 12, 1989.

There are 400 MOAA chapters in the United States, with 14 chapters and one council in North Carolina. The Piedmont chapter represents five counties — Guilford, Randolph, Rockingham, Alamance and Caswell. It meets approximately six times a year.

“The April 22 meeting was filled with ‘heavy lifters,’” said Richmond, speaking of military leaders at the event.

In addition to Captain Michael, others included NCCOC past president Jim Brumit, Col. USA, Ret., and Brigadier General Norm

Cooling, USMC, Ret. Michael discussed the importance and effect of MOAA on legislation to protect earned benefits of military members. He also stressed the need for strong leadership in each chapter.

“His speech invigorated those who came to take responsibilities,” noted Richmond’s wife Sherrie.

Perhaps the highlight of the meeting was the recognition of NC Marine JROTC Cadet Alex E. Murphy from Reidsville High School.

Each spring at the end of the school year, representatives from the Piedmont MOAA go to the 18 high schools in their area that have JROTC organizations to recognize one outstanding cadet selected by their Commanders. But Reidsville High School JROTC Commander Adolfo Torres asked if his cadet could be recognized at the April MOAA meeting and was granted the request. The cadet, who attended with his family, and Commander Torres, who had once served under Brigadier General Cooling were surprised to see Cooling when they walked into the room.

Cooling presented Murphy with a medal, certificate and gift card and the pride on Murphy’s face was evident to all.

“It was a very emotional presentation,” Richmond said.

The next event for members of the Piedmont MOAA will be in July as they gather as a group to attend the Eastern Music Festival.

Here’s a tip for brides: For the couple of weeks before your wedding, wear your wedding shoes around the house several times a week. This breaks them in, and you will be more comfortable with all the standing and dancing on your special day!

I think cleaning wipes are so very handy, but they can be quite expensive. To make my own, I add cleaner to baby wipes, right in the container. I don’t have babies in the house, but I do mark the container well so that nobody would use it for his or her skin. They work well for me. — via email

“It is like a thrift store, but only open once a year,” Paula Rachal, rector and pastor at All Saints Church, added.

Bedell says the rummage sale serves three purposes — helps meet people’s needs for a nominal cost, provides wants for a bargain price, and acts as a good source that allows people to part with things they no longer want or need so others can enjoy and benefit from them. Donating to the sale is an opportunity to declutter and feel good about it since doing so helps others.

During the last hour of the sale, the needs items found in the basement are sold for $5 a bag and the want items in the parish hall are discounted at a percentage off.

The money raised is used for church activities and for outreach projects in the community. A few items that are not sold may be held over for next year’s sale, but much is given to other non-profit organizations, for example the woman’s shelter and Barnabas Network or to local refugees trying to set up housekeeping.

activity,” said Bedell with a smile.

All Saints Church has an outdoor labyrinth located in a lower field at one side of the church. Created a couple of years ago by A.J. Row for his Eagle Scout project, the labyrinth offers a place for quiet reflection, prayer and meditation. The church plans to upgrade the labyrinth, which is open to the community, by creating steps and a railing to allow easier access to it. There will also be a weatherproof box containing information about the labyrinth and how to use it.

“It looks somewhat like a maze, but it is not,” Bedell said. “There is one way in and one way out. You will not get lost as you follow the path. It is just for contemplation.”

“Our hope is that all of it finds a home,” Bedell said.

Besides the rummage sale, All Saints Church hosts many activities throughout the year to which the community is invited, including a Folkfest, book sale, mystery dinner theater, blessing of the animals,

markers promote cultural tourism and commemorate legends and folklore as part of our heritage.

“Generally speaking, folklore is the stories, customs, traditions, and expressive arts and crafts that are passed on from one person to another, often from generation to generation,” according to the Foundation’s website.

“Folklore is the knowledge that people share as members of a group or community. Our shared identities and sense of belonging are the result of shared traditions, stories, customs, and activities.”

“I met Lydia in 1970 in the library in elementary school,” said Jamestown Mayor Lynn Montgomery as she held up two books about ghosts in the Carolinas. “I’ve continued to read these books until now.

“After May 25 they will be back in the Jamestown Public Library for you to read.”

For those not familiar with Lydia’s story, professional storyteller Cynthia Moore Brown chillingly related the story at the sign’s unveiling. Those in attendance were rapt and quiet as they listened.

But is Lydia actually folklore or is the story based on an actual accident that occurred June 21, 1920, when a car missed a sharp turn at the underpass, killing the

The church also has applied for a grant to upgrade its parish hall so it may be rented to individuals and groups in the community for classes, workshops, retreats, parties and other events. Among the planned improvements are audio and video equipment to make it more useful for groups that want to show videos or PowerPoint presentations and a larger icemaker.

occupants? The late author Michael Renegar and his co-writer Amy Greer did extensive research over many years and determined the woman’s name was Annie L. Jackson, but her middle name could have been Lydia. Newspaper reports of the time detailed

the accident. Annie did not survive. She is buried in the Jackson family plot at Holt’s Chapel Cemetery in Greensboro. Renegar and Greer as well as Sellers (who also believes Annie Jackson was the ghost’s real name) have written books on

paranormal appearances in North Carolina and the Jamestown Public Library has many books on the subject.

But as far as Jamestown is concerned, the hitchhiking ghost at the underpass is now officially named Lydia.

Coffee Break

Salome’s Stars

Week of May 15, 2023

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Aspects indicate a potential for confusion or misunderstanding. Keep those lines of communication open between you and your mate or significant other.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Romantic aspects are strong, but confusing. Be alert. Use your good Bovine sense to avoid charging into something that isn’t quite what it seems to be.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Working out problems with family members or others close to you should be your priority. Travel aspects are strong, especially in job-related situations.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Cancerian Crab likes to take charge of things. But be careful you don’t pinch off more than you can hold, or you might find it all slipping out of your grasp.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)

A new opportunity beckons

Leos and Leonas who are ready to take on some tough challenges. Family matters continue to improve, but still need close attention.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) What seems to be a disappointment could be a blessing in disguise. Use that good Virgin mind to analyze the situation and learn some valuable lessons.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) There are some conflicting considerations that will need careful sorting out. Remember: You do best when you’re able to balance sense and sentiment.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Aspects show conflicting signs around friendships. Be careful about taking advice from someone who might have an agenda that is not in your best interests.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Relationships are supposed to be about give-and-take, but you might find that you’ve been doing all

the giving while getting little in return.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Sometimes indecision can be a positive factor in helping to resolve doubts about a potential commitment. Don’t be rushed into acting before you feel ready to do so.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Take off those rose-colored glasses and see this new situation for what it is — and for what it isn’t. Remember: You haven’t been told the whole truth yet.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Watch that you don’t drain your energy reserves as you dive into a new and increasingly demanding project. Take time out for rest and relaxation.

BORN THIS WEEK: You live your life on a finely tuned balance between the perception of a Taurus and the curiositiy of a Gemini. You excel in the arts.
