Harmon Field has new flex tennis courts Open air gym also painted, new basketball goals by Leah Justice
A new era of recreation has arrived at Harmon Field, thanks to fundraising and a few local contributions. New flex tennis
courts were installed recently, and the open air gym has been rejuvenated. The new flex surface for the tennis courts has a 20-year estimated life span. The Harmon Field Board of Supervisors has been discussing the need for repairs or replacement of the tennis courts for years, but has been unable to do any work because

begin work. The cost of the flex courts was $59,000, according to Harmon Field Parks and Recreation Supervisor George Alley. He says the park is especially appreciative to the Polk County Community Foundation for granting $18,000 for the project. The rest of the funds came from an anonymous donation of $31,000, $2,000 from the Thermal Belt Tennis Association, $2,000 from Friends of Harmon Field and $6,000 in other donations. The open air gym has also been improved recently. It was repainted and the basketball backboards and rims were replaced. The locker rooms, party room, equipment room and office at the gym have also been recently renovated, and a new roof was installed. A new climbing wall has also been constructed and a variety of sports equipment has been purchased.

Work left on the open-air gym includes striping the basketball court, providing some grip on the playing surface, painting the gym ceiling and possibly fencing.

You may have noticed survey crews around downtown Columbus lately and wondered, “What’s going on out here?” The town recently received a grant from the North Carolina Clean Water Management Trust Fund in order to assist with stormwater issues within the downtown area. The first phase of this project is to survey the town’s stormwater system. The survey crews have worked this week to map the
Columbus system and this information will be incorporated into the town’s GIS system. This will enable the town to better prepare for stormwater issues and allow officials to use best management practices to plan for future stormwater infrastructure. If you have questions about this project, please feel free to contact town Manager Jonathan Kanipe at 828-894-8236 or visit him in person at Columbus Town Hall.

Editor's note: Below is a resolution approved by Tryon Town Council last Tuesday in support of turning the Norfolk Southern railroad bed, unused by commercial rail traffic since December 2001, into a trail system for hikers, bikers and equestrian activity: WHERAS, the economics of Tryon, N.C., Saluda, N.C. and Landrum, S.C. were built by the existence of the railroad; and WHEREAS, the scenic Saluda Grade, being the steepest standard gauge main line railroad grade in the United States, is one of the most famous, beautiful and historically significant rail corridors in the country; and WHEREAS, Norfolk Souther Corporation’s rail bed between Landrum and Saluda (Line W) has not been utilized for commercial rail traffic since December, 2001; and WHEREAS, said rail bed is unlikely to be put back into service in the foreseeable future; and WHEREAS, conversion of said rail bed into a recreational trail could: • provide a permanent recreational and exercise facility for local residents and visitors; • serve as a magnet for clean,
environmentally friendly tourism for the region; • promote and expand existing tourist related businesses; • promote creation of new tourist related businesses; • promote equine related enterprises resulting from public trail access; • enhance downtown development in Landrum, Tryon and Saluda; • increase sales and hospitality taxes as the result of increased retail activity; • preserve the scenic Saluda Grade, one of the most famous and historically significant stretches of rail line East of the Mississippi River; • give Norfolk Southern Corporation a means to renew, rejuvenate and reinvigorate the economies of communities which were originally built by its corporate predecessor, Southern Railway; • promote the health, fitness and welfare of all who use it; and • provide alternate safe healthy access to schools and parks along the trail • enhance the quality of life of residents and visitors; and (Continued on page 7)
Wednesday, November 24, 2010 Tryon Daily Bulletin / The World’s Smallest Daily Newspaper
• Resolution (continued from page 6)
WHEREAS, the Saluda Grade Trail Committee has been formed for the purpose of accomplishing such a conversion; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE TOWN OF TRYON expresses its hearty support for the Saluda Grade Trail Committee and the
mission, and pledges its active cooperation in accomplishing that mission; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT THE TOWN OF TRYON encourages, challenges and invites other governments, organizations and individuals to likewise support the mission of the Saluda Grade Trail Committee in the hope that said committee will accomplish said mission with all
due speed; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT THE TOWN OF TRYON expresses its recognition of and appreciation for the contributions of Norfolk Southern Corporation and its corporate predecessor, Southern Railway in creating, building and maintaining the economy of our region throughout virtually the entire 20th Century; and
page
7
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT THE TOWN OF TRYON entreats Norfolk Southern Corporation to look kindly upon the mission of the Saluda Grade Trail Commission as an opportunity for Norfolk Southern to repurpose its unused rail line and thereby help to re-create, rebuild and remake said economy as it moves forward through the 21st Century.

Equine botulism discussion last Tuesday horse’s exposure and risk. Feeding round bales also increases risk. Botulism is very difficult to diagnose because early signs mimic so many other conditions and is more difficult and expensive to treat. The prognosis is grave and treatment can cost up to $15,000 for an adult horse. After evaluating their horses’ risk factors, a horse owner may elect to vaccinate for botulism. The vaccine is extremely safe and very effective against the most common type of botulism that affects horses. This vaccine is recommended as a core vaccine by the American Association of Equine Practitioners. Horses that have not been previously vaccinated for botulism require an initial dose and two boosters. Following these three initial vaccines, annual boosters

Local veterinarians, Doctors Boyum, Butterworth-Tice, Eastman, Freer and Woodaman, along with Neogen Corporation, hosted a dinner and educational opportunity for local horse owners on Tuesday evening at FENCE to discuss the risk factors of equine botulism in the area. The guest speaker was Dr. Bonnie Barr from Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital in Lexington, KY. Botulism is a neurotoxic disease caused by bacteria that is very common in soils. The bacteria can release a toxin when activated by optimum conditions and very low doses are fatal in horses. It is important to know the conditions that increase your horse’s risk of contracting the disease and to know where the disease is endemic. Hay that is hauled into the area from these endemic areas may increase a

Polk’s elections have all the earmarks of recycling politicians rather than reforming anything. Lastly, Polk, like so many political entities, has elected a group of moral cowards who seem to inhabit another ethical universe apart from the rest of us and who, not surprisingly, do not speak the same language. What do they talk about when they talk about taxes and real change? None seem to recognize their cancer on truth and reality. Will they ever stand for anything except reelection and party loyalty? Ray Gasperson looks to be caught in the middle of this strange universe, a person who can side with Cindy Walker and Renee McDermott and probably be reelected, occasionally vote with Owens and Pack and risk the ire of the Democrats, become unaffiliated and jump into the Green River gorge, or speak his mind and vote his conscience and assure his political demise. That choice is also available to other commissioners, but the narcissism of small personal differences of opinion probably won’t allow them to consider it. USED: – Milton Ready
FREE REVIEW Reflections on Polk’s elections
To the Editor: Ok, ok, perhaps it’s just me, but I sort of miss all those kooky candidates and highbrow political ads that characterized the 2010 elections. Gosh, I can still recall that one with the flashing red lights blinking liar, liar, liar and all the talking goldfish and sheep. Did some group called The Committee for Fiscal Sanity really pay millions for them? Still, a friend of mine found the ads obnoxious. They distracted from her watching “Dancing with the Stars.” She believes that DWTS has a plot, but, similarly, I also think that the mid-term elections in Polk County have a larger meaning. Perhaps. Here goes. Rumination #1. The entire point of the election was to avoid taxation altogether. In fact, they’re a satanic plot entertained by your opponent while your fiscally responsible policies would drive a stake through his heart MAKE and restore virtue and trustworthiness

One man's trash is another's treasure 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.
DR. ROBERT MCDANIEL Amanda Morfino on her new horse Nia, with Renée and Nick Morfino. (photo submitted)
Amanda started to take lessons from a local professional. After about six weeks of lessons Amanda and Nia
entered the Foothills Riding Club Horse Trial at FENCE where they won their dressage class and successfully
completed the cross-country course and stadium jumping. They ended up high point!

As a wrap-up to Breast Cancer Awareness month, the Rutherford Hospital Cancer Resource Center held a Women’s Health & Chocolate event on October 28 to encourage women in the community to participate in life-saving screenings, and to be pampered a little in the process. More than 50 women attended and took part in 33 skin cancer, seven cholesterol, 17 bone density, 13 glucose, 40 blood pressures, 28 hearing and 25 spine screenings. In addition, Tips to Toes raised $120 for the Rutherford Hospital Foundation’s Mammogram Program, which provides free mammograms for uninsured women over 40 in Rutherford County. To find out more about resources that are available, or to learn how to contribute, contact Jamie Ingraham at the Cancer Resource Center at 828-2454596 or jingraham@rutherfordhosp.org; or Jill Miracle, director of the Rutherford Hospital Foundation at 828-286-5070 or jmiracle@ rutherfordhosp.org.

N.C. sweet potatoes make up nearly half of U.S. production With sweet potatoes being such a big part of many people’s Thanksgiving meals, it seems only fitting that November has been declared Sweet Potato Month in North Carolina. The special recognition is also fitting because North Carolina is the top producer of sweet potatoes in the country. “North Carolina farmers produce nearly half the total U.S. production of sweet potatoes. It is a crop that generates more than $175.8 million in cash receipts,” said agriculture commissioner Steve Troxler. “Sweet potatoes are not only healthy for the economy, but they are a healthy and nutritious addition to the table.” North Carolina sweet potato producers account for 47.3 percent of total U.S. production, and the crop represents the tremendous diversification of North Carolina agriculture. Nash, Sampson, Johnston, Wilson and Edgecombe are the top five sweet potato producing counties in the state. About 50,000 acres of sweet potatoes are being harvested this year, and North Carolina sweet potatoes are available year-round. “Sweet potato dishes are a Thanksgiving tradition for my

St. Luke’s recognizes
radiologic technologists
Providing patients with safe medical imaging examinations is the prime goal of radiologic technologists. St. Luke’s Hospital recognizes its radiologic technologists during the recent National Radiologic Technology Week. National Radiologic Technology Week was established in 1979 to honor German physicist Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen’s discovery of the x-ray on November 8, 1895. However, the event has transformed into a celebration that acknowledges radiologic technologists’ commitment to safely and showcases their contributions to the health care community. Members of the St. Luke’s Hospital Radiology team are above: (from left) Cindy Littlejohn, Jennifer Bailey, Sonja Lucas, Teresa Marlowe, Stephanie Sizemore, Ricky Garcia and Bill Hutchins.
