Mt. Holly Lamp Parade has an international angle

by Alan Hodge alan.bannernews@gmail.com

The bible urges folks not to hide their lamp under a basket, and that adage is certainly going to come true on Oct. 20 at 7pm when the Mt. Holly Lamp Parade steps off at Ida Rankin Elementary School, continues down West Central Avenue, turns right on South Main Street, and ends at the newly christened permanent trellis system for the Mount Holly Farmer’s Market. During the parade, folks will see over 20 dazzling and illuminated lamps marched through town.

The parade will be led by members of the official drumline of the Panthers, PurrCussion. Kathleen Doody of Toronto, Canada will be on hand to judge the lanterns for the prizes. Doody is an artist with over 20 years of lantern-making experience, and conducts lantern parades internationally The lamps will include such fanciful creations as the legendary flying horse Awaken Gallery owner Emily Andress and Irish artist Olive Stack with the Pegasus lantern that will be Pegasus, a huge fish, a giant snake with hoisted at the Mt. Holly Lantern Parade.

by local students from schools like Ida Rankin Elementary, local artists like Diane Pike, and Awaken Gallery owner Emily Andress. They are made of wire and willow sticks with translucent paper stretched over the framework.

Pitching in to lend her expertise to the lamp parade project has been Irish artist Olive Stack who is a resident of and art gallery owner in Listowel, County Kerry, Ireland. Stack’s jaunt to Mt. Holly to work with the lantern parade was sponsored by the Mt. Holly Community Development Foundation.

“I love Mt. Holly,” Stack said. “The people are so warm and friendly. It’s a lot like home.”

During her stay, Stack has been working with other artists and Ida Rankin students as they craft their lanterns. She’s also making one that will represent the 1916 Mt. Island Mill bell that’s at the Mt. Holly Historical Society.

Stack and Andress met several years ago and are close friends.

“I got the idea for the lamp parade after seeing one in Paris,” said Andress.

Fans of chickens, on the hoof, not fried or baked, in Belmont, have plenty to crow about.

At its last meeting, the Belmont city council approved an ordinance that will allow those so inclined to keep a small flock of chickens on their property- with provisions.

The approved ordinance will allow the keeping of up to four chickens in the rear yard area if all requirements can be met. Requirements include setbacks from side and rear property lines, chicken housing requirements, cleanliness, and permitting.

The city got involved in the chicken business by meeting with local residents who gave feedback on a draft of the ordinance. Lara Worden, area agent from the NC Cooperative Extension Service, also offered suggestions.

LAMP from page 1 Even after the last lamp goes out in the Mt. Holly parade, its legacy will live on.

“We will be having a lantern parade in Listowel in November,” Stack said. “The Mt. Holly parade will be video recorded with a drone and projected on the side of an ancient castle to start our parade off.”

There’s also a plan by Andress and Stack to work together to link Mt. Holly and Listowel artistically. Andress will be traveling to Listowel soon to work on that project.

So, what will become of the Mt. Holly lanterns? After the parade is over, they will be put into storage and brought out again next year to join others that will be created for the 2019 show.

“We hope to see the Mt. Holly parade get bigger and better each year,” said Stack.

Blind Justice coming Oct. 25 A new play by 3M Productions, “Blind Justice”, will be presented Oct 25th 26th at 7pm and 27th at 2pm and 6pm, at the Gaston School of the Arts, 825 Union Road, Gastonia. Doors open one hour before show times.

The story revolves around a police officer named Puckett who enters a convenience store and immediately encounters a young black man engaged in an altercation with the clerk. Upon seeing the policeman, the young man approaches officer Puckett, who uncertain of the object in the young man's hand, warns him to drop it. Refusing to obey the command, the young man continues to approach the officer. Pulling his weapon, Puckett fires, striking the young man in the upper right torso.

The community is outraged at the ex-

planation from the department as to the actions of the officer. Deacon Frye, a spokes person in the community calls for justice. Following his speech at the church, vows the voice of the people will be heard. The following morning, while on his way to a job site, Deacon Frye discovers an accident. Acting as the Good Samaritan, Deacon Frye, noticing the badge worn by the victim, realizes the man as the shooter. Taking Puckett back to his shop, presumably as collateral for his manifesto against the injustices committed against the underdogs of society, soon realizes the person behind the badge.

What Puckett realizes is the fact that, Deacon Frye is really using the hostage situation as a platform to redeem himself as a father, a husband, and as man that

has failed his community.

“Blind Justice” touches on the subjects of guilt, loss and the consequences of split second decisions. Although there are many different approaches to the situations in in the world of the play, it is not the intentions to highlight our differences but to substantiate the fact, if given the opportunity to converse, given the opportunity, we, are more alike than we want to admit. Our backgrounds, color, religion, are the small barriers in our being human.

We will never live above being human. This play shows the purity of humansin times of uncertainly, and our ability to forgive.

Tickets are $25 at the door, or you visit Eventbrite.com/ search “Blind Justice”

CHICKENS from page 1 Worden held a public workshop on September 24, 2018 at the police station which was well attended. This workshop included a presentation that covered chicken keeping topics, addressed common misconceptions and concerns, and answered questions. Staff also shared details of the draft ordinance and solicited feedback.

The ordinance that was passed has the following provisionsNo more than four chickens are permitted; roosters are prohibited; no on-site slaughter of chickens; no chickens may be kept in multi-family complexes; an annual permit is required; a predator proof coop or chicken tractor are required for the keeping of chickens; chicken keeping area must be a least 25-feet from any rear and side property line; Minimum of four square feet of floor area within coop or tractor per chicken; coops, runs, and chicken tractors must be kept in a clean and sanitary condition; all chickens must be kept in a coop or chicken tractor during non-daylight hours; chickens may be located in a coop, run, chicken tractor, or securely fenced area during daylight hours.

As the Belmont ordinance proves, keeping backyard chickens is becoming more and more popular. NC Cooperative Extension Service master gardener Dana Harper is a fan of the fowl and was instrumental in helping the City of Gastonia draw up and pass a chicken ordinance. She also keeps a flock in her own backyard.

Harper explained the chicken allure.

“One reason people like to keep backyard chickens is the fact that they know the eggs they get are fresh and do not have any antibiotics in them like ones from the store. Some of the store eggs can be six or even eight weeks old.”

Harper pointed out some other poultry perks.

“Chicken manure makes great garden fertilizer,” she said.

“Chickens also eat bugs and weeds.”

Then there are the benefits to the human soul that watching and raising chickens brings.

“They are very peaceful,” said Harper. “My older neighbors come watch them and say they recall having chickens when they were kids living on a farm. My younger neighbors bring their children over to see the chickens.”

OPINION

Thursday, October 18, 2018

TODAY’S QUOTE: “Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.”

– Emily Brontë

Putting things I felt like Columbus What Does It in perspective discovering America Mean to Be an American?

Well, I got a good lesson in putting things into perspective a couple of weeks ago.

As some of you know and the rest of you are about to find out, my current past time is restoring vintage British motorcycles from junk to like new condition. My latest, and last, project has been a 1972 Norton 850 Commando. It took a year and half to build starting with a rusty frame.

The last bit for the bike was the gas Alan Hodge tank. I bought a new one and painted Banner-News Editor it and put gas in and it leaked. Two pinhole leaks. I went nuts. It was the end of the world. It was the end of Western civilization. I tossed and turned at night thinking about those pinholes. I was pinhole leak obsessed.

Until Sharon and I went to South Myrtle Beach for a few days.

The trip was two weeks after Hurricane Florence. We nearly called it off, but every day I checked a SCDOT website that showed what roads were closed due to flooding. The roads were highlighted in purple on a map of the state. At one point the whole S.C. coastal area was purple. It was a purple haze.

As the days crept closer to our departure, a few roads came out from under the water. Finally, on the day before we were to leave, the purple near Gallivant's Ferry on US501 and Cheraw on SC9 cleared up. That left Conway as the last hurdle and it ended up being one too.

OK, so we left home on Thursday morning. It was smooth sailing through Wadesboro and down SC52. When we got to the Pee Dee River bridge in Cheraw I could not believe mine eyes. The railroad trestle beside the SC9 car bridge was piled high with huge trees and debris. The woods on both sides of the river were covered in mud about five feet high.

As we continued down #9, you could see where numerous trees had fallen in the road and every creek had come up and deposited dirt in the road. Fields were flooded with black water, roofs were torn off, lots of those aluminum carports were torn up and smashed like tinfoil.

We got to Dillon and hit US501. At Gallivant's Ferry over the Waccamaw River, the black water was swirling inches from the bridge. Nearby, a house was half submerged and there was a large sailboat jammed up against it.

We finally got to Conway. The SCDOT had reduced 501 from four lanes to two with huge sandbags. This was to keep the lake and river from meeting and closing the road totally.

Traffic was bad and made worse thanks to a log truck that broke down right in the middle of the highway. It seemed like it took forever to get through Conway.

Well, we finally got to the hotel near Myrtle Beach State Park. As it turned out, about the only folks there besides us were some National Guard folks from Virginia and Pennsylvania who had been rescuing flood victims. The beach was nearly deserted which was kinda nice.

Coming back home we saw more flooded areas and damage. In some places it was pretty bad.

This got me to thinking about how stupid I had been fuming over a leaky gas tank when thousands of folks lost everything they owned and didn't have a clue about where to turn next.

We all have daily aggravations. Maybe yours is traffic or your team didn't win the big game. Next time you feel that way, consider if your house was under black water to the roof.

I know I will.

This is the weekend we celebrate the birth of a man who wouldn’t stop and ask for directions. Yes, Columbus was bent on going west to find the far east. That makes absolutely no sense. But isn’t that what we do as men? Columbus pushed on believing he was right. He would have done well in the days before GPS. Back then, we wrote down directions and attempted to read them while we were driving. We’d miss a turn and keep going believing that Tony Marciano if we just kept going, we would eventually arrive at our destination. We only stopped when the light on the gas gauge started flashing. This forces us to do the unforgiveable man thing; we pull over and ask for directions.

Lucky for Columbus, he discovered the new world. Had he been wrong, he may have fallen off the face of the earth. He didn’t get lost. He just didn’t stop at the local convenience store and ask for help.

Sometimes (all right – more than sometimes) I think I have all the answers. My mother often said I was one of the most stubborn human beings she had ever met. When I think I have the right answer, I can dig in my heels. I think I’m right and won’t ask for help.

Let me tell you a story.

I enjoy working out at the Dowd Y before work. I have a routine I do on their machines. It was working well, and I was improving.

When they started the new construction, they relocated the equipment. I didn’t know where they moved it to and being the independent person, I am, I didn’t ask. Time went on and my routine of working out on the machines went into the history book.

One day I finished my workout on the elliptical trainer and decided to return to the locker room a different way. Instead of turning left to go down the steps, I made a right and followed the construction down the hall. As I got past the construction area, I felt like Columbus seeing the New World for the first time. There was this blinding light as I discovered the expanded weight room. It was big. It was bright. It was huge. It was the promised land for weight training.

As I entered the new weight room, I envisioned Columbus anchoring his boats and walking onto the New World. I sat on a machine and began pumping iron. It felt wonderful. My muscles were being used for the first time in a long time.

Since then, I have a routine I do on the machines twice per week.

I’m increasing the weight I use. There are machines I didn’t know existed. Several are helping me work on my core.

Why do I share this? Sometimes the answers are right in front of us. Sometimes the answers we need are just around the corner.

Sometimes we don’t see it because our heart is closed, and we aren’t open to receiving the gift of hope.

Do you ever think that perhaps God is moving in front of you?

Do you ever consider that we don’t see His hand because our heart is closed? Then we think God doesn’t care or doesn’t answer our prayer. The Y already had the equipment in place, but I didn’t ask for help. I didn’t ask where they relocated it. Had I asked, I would have enjoyed it a lot sooner. If I ask God for His help, I could experience His solutions to the challenges I face to my life.

Foothills Fall 5k

By Lee H. Hamilton Tell me: What does it actually mean to be an American?

In the press of day-to-day events and amid the ongoing tumult of politics, we don’t think about this much. Yet it’s a crucial question, one that each generation in this country is called upon to answer for itself.

I believe the aim of our representative democracy is to enhance the liberty of free people, and to offer them the opportunity to make the most of their talents. This lies at the root of what it means to live in a representative democracy: extending respect to all and wanting every person to be aware of his or her political importance.

Perhaps the most eloquent expression of this view is the awe-inspiring Declaration of Independence, which remains a core inspiration both for our political values and our shared identity. The notion that all people are created equal, that we possess God-given inalienable rights, including to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness — these are beliefs that undergird our democracy.

Bringing these values into our policies and our politics depends on all of us — another notion embedded in this country since the beginning. Though the quality of our elected leaders makes all the difference, ultimately our success as a nation will rest on the strength and capabilities of our citizens.

Politics as it is practiced in our country can bring despair and crushing defeat. But it can also produce splendid achievements. If you enter politics, you have to be prepared for both.

The atmosphere has changed from when I first got involved — that was a time when it was possible to find common ground across partisan divides, and when respecting one’s opponents did not bring immediate censure from donors and primary voters. Yet the basic need — for using the political system to resolve fundamental challenges — has not changed.

Nor has one of its most basic features: a permanent tension between the preservation and expansion of individual freedom on the one hand, and the stability and strength of the nation on the other.

These are not contradictory goals, but they do rub against each other. How we interpret them —how far in one direction or the other we go as our national circumstances change — is a constant challenge. Being an American means not shying away from that task, but instead embracing it as part of our birthright.

Kaysey Hopkins recently celebrated another birthday…the big 10th year birthday! Kaysey asked for no presents. Instead, Kaysey asked her friends and family to donate to Tri-County Animal Rescue. Kaysey loves coming to PetSmart to see all the homeless dogs and cats searching for their forever home. As you can see, Kaysey brought in two huge loads of donations for the pets and all of us at Tri-County want to praise her for these efforts. Kaysey has a heart for animals and we appreciate her so much. Kaysey is a 4th grader at Pinewood Elementary School.

Walk by faith, not by sight! Bootanical Years ago my family and I were coming home from a trip to the mountains in the snow and sleet, when our front window defroster stopped working.

The windshield would freeze over, and I would have to stop every mile or so and scrape the window. I basically drove home with zero visibility. 2 Corinthians 5:7 says, “For we walk by faith, not by sight” (NKJV). As we live our lives, in the midst of a lost world, we must live by faith, guided by the hand of Jesus Christ.

In Luke 7:1-10, a local centurion had a sick servant who was near death.

This centurion had heard of Jesus, and His reputation for healing the sick and working many miracles. The centurion sent the local Jewish leaders to ask Jesus to come and heal the man. As Jesus was approaching the area where the centurion was located, he sent word to Jesus that he was unworthy to have Jesus come to him. He also felt unworthy to come to Jesus. He as an authority figure, was familiar with giving simple commands to those under him. Therefore, he rec-

ognized Jesus as an authority, and asked Him to simply speak it, and the servant would be healed. Jesus marveled at this Gentile centurion’s faith. As the men returned home, they found the centurion’s servant completely healed.

This Gentile centurion, an unbeliever, shows us an amazing example of walking by faith, and not by sight. This man was a good man, he cared for his servant. He even built a synagogue for the Jewish people in his area, yet he lacked Jesus. We encounter many people who are good but have no relationship with God. Fortunately, this centurion sought Jesus. He knew who Jesus was, and what He could do. He recognized Jesus’ authority. In the same way, we must seek Jesus in all things, recognizing that He is the sovereign God. This centurion had simple faith like a child. He needed no proof, he simply believed Jesus could do great things. If we are going to be what God has called us to be, we must walk by faith. In order to do so, we must totally surrender to Jesus, recognizing that

He is sovereign in our lives. We must also exhibit that same simple, childlike faith of the centurion.

Faith in Jesus is not something we Rev. Trent Rankin need to prove, Salvation Church or something Gastonia, NC we can see. salvationchurchnc.org Faith is simply believing. That first Easter, the disciple Thomas would not believe Jesus was alive until he saw the nail prints in His hand, then he believed. Jesus said to Thomas, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believed” (John 20:29, NKJV). As followers of Jesus, we do not live by what we see, we live by faith, simple faith in Jesus.

Local Civil Air Patrol had a busy September The local squadron of the U.S. Air Force auxiliary, Civil Air Patrol, sent 15 volunteer members ranging in age from 14 to 70 for relief efforts in eastern North Carolina due to Hurricane Florence, and another 14 as part of the search operations around Rankin Lake Park that discovered the body of Maddox Ritch.

From September 12 - 25, members served in a variety of critical response and support positions to prepare for and assist with recovery from Hurricane Florence. Local cadets (youth) and adult members were deployed to the Civil Air Patrol NC Wing Incident Command Post (ICP) in Burlington to coordinate air and ground team missions; to the North Carolina Emergency Management (NCEM) Regional Coordination Centers in Kinston and Butner; and to Wilmington to set up, operate, and ultimately phase out the city’s north Point of Distribution (POD).

On Thursday, September 27, 14 local ground team members — along with CAP members from Hickory and Concord — re-

ported to Rankin Lake Park at the request of the NCEM to assist in the search for Maddox Ritch, a 7 year-old autistic child missing for six days. Roland B. Hamrick of NCEM and Planning Section for Thursday’s operational period said, “I’ve got you guys here today because you’re the best in the business.” It was ultimately two adult CAP members that were responsible for locating and reporting the child’s remains.

In all, members from the Gastonia Composite Squadron gave over 1,000 hours of volunteer service in September to emergency services missions. Squadron Commander 1st Lt Derk Beutler said of his unit, “These volunteers spend their valuable time, energy, and money every month to train and prepare for exactly these kinds of missions. I’m deeply proud of our squadron for their sacrifice and professionalism in serving our state and our community.”

Some Immersion is Profitable Have you ever wondered how long it takes for our souls (mind, will, and emotions) to figure out they are being productively filled or destructively drained? In this morning’s quiet I could hear two wall clocks ticking; marking time evenly and inexorably forward. We can’t speed up time or slow it down but we can weigh our minutes and seconds and spend them wisely, thoughtfully and gratefully.

After sunrise, I thoughtfully immersed myself in my garden tomato patch. I picked all the ripe ones and left the ones not quite ready. Later today I’m going to immerse myself in a neighbor’s corn field and do the same thing. Both projects are immensely profitable, especially looking ahead to the fall and winter when fresh produce like this will be hard to come by. Other immersions are profitable too like learning a new language through immersion living, or immersing ourselves in beautiful music that lifts our souls to unexplored heights.

Even scuba diving is a type of wonderful immersion where we build muscles, learn skills, and explore worlds hard to get to. But what about the converse; when immersion is not good for us or profitable?

The internet today provides volumes of information but shouldn’t we sometimes ask at what cost? Look at how many ticks on the clock are lost when we want to access information on the “net” but it is conniving, pieced out to us, and swallowed in unwanted advertisements. Consider T.V. too and all the news that is negative, imported, or biasedly constructed; Or weather reports which have morphed from “best guesses” to faux scientific major news productions thrown at us every six minutes. More ticks on the clock lost and worse. What

have we invited into our souls in the process?

Can’t we admit that a great many times we are absorbing distorted, repetitive information that loses its relevance to us by mostly being noise?

It has taken me a long Dennis Siracusa time to realize that the anxiety I feel at many a days end, is due to these negative immersions and how, by my invitation, I have allowed them to divert me from family, goals, or just rest.

The bible talks about being a good steward in many places, like Luke 16, and that responsibility is relevant to everything the Lord places in our hands. Most often we think of money but time is another big one and when we consider the priorities God has set before us, Him first and our family’s second, then we have a responsibility to Him and them to use our time wisely. And when I start erring and feeling guilty and anxious I lean on scriptures like Philippians 4:6 “to be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be known to God.” Then I immerse myself in God’s Word looking for practical advice on how to reconstruct my life, use assets and time so anxiety and regrets drain away and peace and hope take their place so I can plot a productive path forward.

N.C. Forest Service offers guidance for assessing tree damage after Florence

Hurricane Florence brought strong winds and rain to North Carolina that could have affected forestland and trees.

The N.C. Forest Service encourages landowners and others to exercise caution when assessing storm damage to their woodlands or trees around their homes. Those concerned about the health of their trees should seek advice from their county ranger or other forestry professionals.

Storm damage could include uprooting, wounding, bending and breaking of trees. Standing water, which often accompanies hurricanes, can cause additional stress and mortality.

The N.C. Forest Service can help with post-storm inspection, or owners can hire a consulting forester for large tract of lands and an arborist for trees around their homes.

Woodland damage “Woodlands are often more resilient than we think and will likely recover,” said Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler.

“If you’re a landowner concerned about your woodlands, talk to your county ranger or a consulting forester who can help you determine if you need a plan for managing damaged timber.”

A management plan should be requested as soon as possible to assess any damage and recommend mitigation measures. A sketch map or aerial photograph of the affected area can also be helpful. The next step is to ground check the damage to determine the need for salvaging the timber. Any salvage operation will depend on location, amount and type of damage, and management objectives.

It is important that landowners have a written contract before selling any of their salvage timber to protect their financial interests. A consulting forester can help with appraising the value of timber and what markets may be available. A management plan will help with planning for the future of the woodlands once the damage is cleaned up.

Residential tree assessment State Forester David Lane said that after a storm, hasty or emotional decisions about damaged trees can result in unnecessary removals or drastic pruning. Proper and professional pruning practices can help a tree recover from the storm damage. How long that takes can depend on the amount and extent of damage, the tree species and its initial health and age. “A reputable certified arborist can help advise on management, pruning and removal decisions based on your situation,” Lane said. “Prompt, but not hasty, action will get trees on the road to recovery.”

If homeowners decide to prune their own trees, it’s impor(Left to right) Ernest Sumner, CFGC President; Krystyna Sarrazin, HOM Development Director; Shirley Stowe, HOM Director tant to follow basic safety rules: •Watch for downed utility lines and treat them all as live of Nursing; and Erin Wiggins, CFGC Program Officer. until a utility company official has determined the line is not House of Mercy is pleased to announce it has received a $3,500 grant from the Community Foundation of Gaston County. energized.

Community Foundation to celebrate with $40,000 Agency Endowment Challenge In honor of its 40th anniversary, the Community Foundation of Gaston County is excited to announce that it will offer an Agency Endowment Challenge as one of its 2018 grant opportunities. The Foundation views endowments as a critical building block in developing the capacity and future sustainability of nonprofit organizations. Drawing from a history of facilitating longterm philanthropy and building nonprofit organizational effectiveness, the Foundation would like to invest into Gaston County nonprofits through this Endowment Challenge as part of our 40th anniversary.

A permanent endowment fund is a pool of dollars (sometime referred to as the corpus) from one or more donors that is invested.

A certain percentage of the fund can be withdrawn each year to fund a nonprofit organization’s overall mission.

A spending (or withdrawal) policy determines the amount that can be withdrawn each year. The Spending Policy is meant to keep the fund’s

corpus intact and ensure the long-term financial health of the nonprofit organization and its beneficiaries.

Endowment funds are designed to provide a source of lasting support, representing the promise of a reliable income stream to cover many needs such as operating expenses, fill occasional shortfalls, or even seed new work.

Establishing an endowment fund helps to address that unpredictability and provides great benefits to the organization: Attract large gifts- Individuals often prefer to make major gifts (including bequests) to support features or efforts that will remain in place long after they are gone. Contributing to an endowment ensures that the gift lives on beyond the donor. Signal strengthThe existence of an endowment can serve as a signal to donors that an organization will be around for the long-term. This may draw further support from those who wish to invest in an institution that has longevity.

Support operations and innovation- Because it comes

in as unrestricted dollars, the income from an endowment can be used as needed in any given year—for example, to smooth out financial shortfalls in lean times, and can also be used to cover ongoing overhead costs, or even fund projects that are more experimental in nature and may put an organization on the cutting edge of its field.

During the Endowment Challenge, the Foundation will award a total of $40,000 through 1:2 matching grants of $5,000 to 8 nonprofit organizations to establish or to build an existing agency endowment fund at The Community Foundation of Gaston County. Every two dollars raised by the organization will leverage one grant dollar from the Foundation up to $5,000. Grant recipients will have 18 months from the date of the award to raise the full match. Grant dollars will be transferred into the endowment fund at the Community Foundation of Gaston County once the match has been met and follow the Foundation’s Investment and Spending Policies.

The Foundation will consider only those organizations and institutions that are recognized as 501(c)(3) non-profit entities providing services to the residents of Gaston County.

The Foundation uses an online grant submission process. Applications and all required supporting documents must be uploaded using the online system. Applicants will be required to submit a detailed plan, including a timeline, for building the endowment fund over a period of 18 months. The deadline to submit an online application is Thursday, November 1, 2018. For more information about the Endowment Challenge and to access the online application visit the Foundation’s website: www.cfgaston.org/EndowmentChallenge. For questions regarding the grant cycle or online application portal please contact Erin Wiggins, Programs Officer, at ewiggins@cfgaston.org or (704)864-0927.

Tri-County Animal Rescue Pet of the Week Tri-County Animal Rescue has this senior Chihuahua mix named Brandy as our Pet of the Week. This little girl weighs less than 15 pounds. Brandy was adopted from us years ago but her owner was placed in a nursing home. She is a sweet girl and loves everyone. Brandy would make a great companion for another dog or she would be fine as the only dog. Brandy is spayed, current on vaccines and microchipped. Please come meet Brandy this Friday and Saturday.

Chihuahuas are comical, entertaining, and loyal little dogs. They are absolutely brimming with personality – often a quirky and eccentric personality unmatched by any other breed. Chihuahuas do seem to recognize and prefer their own breed, so it’s a great idea to keep two of them. They keep each other company when you’re gone, they play together, and keep each other warm by snuggling together.

If you want a dog that: is small and easy to carry, comes in several different coats and colors, is oh-so-funny and entertaining in quirky ways, is very loyal, travels well, doesn’t need much exercise, Loves warm sunny climates, usually has a long lifespan…..then a Chihuahua may be right for you!

If you are looking for an addition to your family, please come out and meet our pets this weekend. We have many available pets at the Gastonia PetSmart located at 3698 East Franklin Boulevard this Friday from 6-9 pm and Saturday noon to 6 pm.

Tri-County Animal Rescue is a non-profit organization serving Lincoln, Gaston and other surrounding counties. We are committed to ending pet homelessness in this area and we need your continued support. If you cannot adopt a pet, then support Tri-County in other ways. We need volunteers and donations to continue our mission of finding homes for these unwanted animals. Please help Tri-County Animal Rescue continue to save pets by adopting your next pet this weekend?

Our “needs” list includes: towels, Clorox, laundry detergent, paper towels, dry dog food and dry cat food.

For more information, call 704.263.2444, send an email to TriCountyAnimalRescue@yahoo.com, visit us on the web at www.tcar.us or on FaceBook at Tri-County Animal Rescue.

Donations can be sent to Tri-County Animal Rescue, PO Box 483, Alexis, NC 28006.

Caromont Health expands primary care network to Cramerton In partnership with leaders and officials from the Town of Cramerton, CaroMont Health announced today the start of construction for a state-of-the-art medical office offering family medicine and specialty care services at Cramerton.

“We are pleased to partner with the Town of Cramerton to bring compassionate and reliable healthcare care to this area of the region,” said Dr. Costa Andreou, Executive Vice President for the health system’s medical group. “As a Cramerton resident, I see every day how quickly our community is growing.

We want to be ready to offer convenient access to patient-focused primary care for residents well into the future.”

Mayor Will Cauthen agrees this is great news for Cramerton and surrounding areas.

“Providing essential services for citizens is one of our most important responsibilities,” stated Cauthen.

“Convenient access to healthcare is a critical part of continuing to develop robust service offerings for individuals and the business community in Cramerton. This effort is made even more impactful because we have partnered with a wellestablished and highly-respected health system.”

Part of the Villages of Cramerton Mills project, the 22,000-square foot medical office building will serve as anchor tenant for phase one of the commercial mixed-use project. While CaroMont Health is still finalizing details for specialty services to be offered, plans for family medicine and primary care services are settled.

“Our primary care and family medicine plans are

Bit of Hope Trail 5K and Two Mile Walk set Bit of Hope Ranch, 5001 CR Wood Road, Gastonia NC, is planning a Trail 5K as well as a Two Mile Walk on November 10, 2018. The event will begin at 9am.

To register online go to: https://runsignup.com/ Race/NC/Gastonia/BitofHopeTrail5K or www.racesonline.com/bitofhopetrail5K The 1st Annual Bit of Hope Trail 5K will feature a 5K trail run and walk. For those who want a shorter course, there will be a two mile event as well. Each course will be traveling through the horse trails on the

ranch. This is a trail runners and walkers dream course.

The proceeds for this event will benefit the Bit of Hope Ranch and the wonderful programs they offer on site.

For more information on the ranch, check out http://www. bitofhoperanch.org Bit of Hope Ranch is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization was founded in 2007 out of Meg Vanderbilt’s passion to help hurting children by allowing them to find hope and healing through a relationship with a horse. All of the horses and animals have a story when they ar-

rive at the Ranch. Children can often identify with these physical or emotional scars that the horses present. Clients work together with the therapy team which includes a licensed professional, an equine specialist and of course…a horse! Clients find this type of therapy powerful and effective. The Ranch now offers Therapeutic Riding services for special needs clients. The Ranch is founded on Biblical principles and the love of Jesus Christ.

Around 30 vendors took part in the 4th annual Fall Health Fair in Stanley last week. The event was hosted and organized by Stress Free Home Care. Sentry Drug of Stanley gave flu vaccinations, Caromont Mammography Mobil Unit performed mammograms, Advanced Home Care had a nurse that checked people's blood pressure. Stanley Pentecostal Holiness Church allowed use of their Family Life Center.

Pride In Gaston Traveling Tour In the summer of 2000, Gaston Together began a program to enhance the awareness of Community Pride in Gaston County school children. By building on the study of the community in the third grade, Gaston Together worked with Gaston County Schools to develop the “Pride in Gaston Traveling Tour” field trip for all third graders in the county, including both public and private school students. As of the 2018 - 2019 school year, over 45,000 students have participated in this program since its inception.

This year’s tour began in early September and will conclude by the end of October. The 2018 tour includes a program and tour of the Snoezelen Room at Holy Angels in Belmont, an interactive health and wellness program at Discover YOU! in Mt. Holly and a tour and “1800s mock trial” in the Old Courthouse at the Gaston County Museum of

Art and History in Dallas.

Activity Books are provided for each student. The “Pride in Gaston” Books feature 14 sites of interest throughout Gaston County. In addition to the sites on the tour, some other points of interest include the Schiele Museum & Planetarium, the Hoyle House, the C. Grier Beam Truck Museum and the Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden. The Activity Book features a pen and ink drawing of each site, a few facts about the site and additional space where the students can add other information. All of the pictures in the book were drawn by Gaston County native, Lucy Penegar. The cover design was created by Image Mark Business Services.

The “Pride in Gaston” Traveling Tour program is free of charge to the students thanks to the generosity of community sponsors. The 2018 Corporate Gold sponsor is CaroMont Health.

Program partners included: PSNC Energy, Carolina Trust Bank, Tindol Ford Subaru ROUSH, Watson Insurance, Mann+Hummel and Alliance Bank and Trust.

Following the tour, the students are asked to write an essay entitled, “What Makes Me Proud to Live in Gaston County.” These essays are entered into Gaston Together’s “Proudest Kid in Gaston County,” essay contest. The individual school winners and the overall county winner are announced later in the spring at Gaston Together’s Community Leadership Award event.

The “Pride in Gaston Traveling Tour” has proven to be a valuable tool in building community pride in our students. It has allowed them to experience first-hand some of the heritage of Gaston County through these wonderful points of interest.

South Point beats back East Rutherford 35-24

By John Wilson john.bannernews@gmail.com

When the 5-2 Red Raiders football team traveled to Forest City to take on the undefeated East Rutherford Cavaliers a lot was on the line. The Cavaliers were trying to establish themselves as the new powerhouse of the Southwestern 2A Conference. At 7-0 they were well on the way to doing just that. A win over South Point would have been big. As it turned out the Red Raiders had something a bit different in mind. South Point overcame an early first half deficit and bulled their way past a talented East Rutherford team to pull off a big 35-24 win.

In the early going the Cavs played the Red Raider tough, very tough. East Rutherford took a 10-3 lead into the locker room at halftime.

In the second half South Point loosened up a bit and started to unload.

Fullback Naseem Jones ran hard for South Point turning out 121 yards and three touchdowns.

Quarterback Keaton Hale also played well. Hale went four for nine for 86 yards with a touchdown and a pick. He ran for 91 yards off 19 carries.

Ray Grier was South Point's top wideout. Grier hauled in two passes for 66 yards and a TD. Grier's top play was a 54 yard 4th quarter touchdown toss from Hale.

East Rutherford gave the Red Raiders a serious run.

They pushed South Point hard. It wasn't until the fourth quarter that South Point was able to gain control.

"We gave up some big plays in the third," South Point head coach Adam Josh Bogen drop the Cavs quarterback.

Hodge noted. "After that we were solid."

Once again the South Point special teams rose up and made a difference. Up 28-7 in the 4th quarter the Red Raiders went with an onside kick. After recovering the kick, South Point marched down the field and scored to go up 35-17. East Rutherford would score again but they were never going to be able to catch up after that drive.

"The kicking game was big again," Hodge said.

"The onside kick helped us a lot."

South Point pulled out Ray Grier on the run. the win and increased their record to 6-2. Coach Hodge was happy with the way the team responded after getting bogged down early and giving up a few big plays. "We did a good job bouncing back," Hodge added. "We had some adversity. We did a good job in the second half.

We didn't give up any big plays in the fourth quarter."

Statistically both squads produced offensively. South Point had 360 yards of total offense compared to East Rutherford's to 393 yards.

Up next for South Point will be a home game against Josh Bogen stops this runner cold. the 1-7 R-S Central Hilltoppers.

Jamani Leeper carries for 21 yards and one touchdown.

Cade Ratliff was perfect on all of his extra points on the night.

OUT TO LUNCH

By RICH DIESSLIN

Using a well balanced offensive attack, the Stuart Cramer Storm was able to outlast the North Gaston Wildcats 41-26 in a high-scoring Big South 3A Conference football game. The win puts the Storm at 5-3 on the year.

Cramer Quarterback Luke Carpenter was instrumental in helping spark the Storm to an early lead in the first quarter.

Carpenter got the Storm on the scoreboard first with a one yard run early in the first quarter. Near the end of the quarter Carpenter hit Demarrick Floyd with a 39-yard touchdown pass to put Cramer up 14-0.

In second-quarter action North Gaston was able to get on the board with a one yard touchdown run. However, the Cramer special teams was able to block the PAT. Kaiser Kayton scored from five yards out midway through the second to give the Storm a 21-6 halftime lead.

In the third quarter Tyreese Morris went to work scoring two touchdowns. One came off of a two yard TD run and the other a 23-yard scoring pass from Carpenter.

In the fourth quarter North Gaston finally got it together and scored twice off big runs. However, Cramer quickly responded with another three yard Morris run that put the game well out of reach.

Cramer was outdone by North Gaston statistically, but those numbers didn't translate to points on the field. North Gaston had 308 yards of total offense, all of it on the ground.

While North Gaston showed they could run, the also showed they couldn't pass. The Storm utterly shut down the Wildcats passing game. North Gaston put the ball in the air six times and never completed a pass. They also threw one interception.

On the other hand the Cramer offense showed real balance. Cramer had 268 yards of total offense. 90 of it came from passing, 178 yards came from the ground game.

Cramer's top runner was Tyreese Morris. Morris had 164 yards off of 21 carries. In the passing department Luke Carpenter had a solid game. He went four for nine with 90 yards, two touchdowns and an interception.

In post game comments head coach Ben McMillan seemed pleased with how everything unfolded.

"Any conference win in the Big South Conference is a good win," McMillan said.

In highlighting the game Coach McMillan was quick to point out a group of players that rarely get the praise they deserve.

"Our offensive line led the way for a good night offensively," Coach McMillan added.

It was definitely a wild ride for Cramer with things that went well and things that need to be addressed.

"Our defense created some turnovers and we were able to capitalize on those," McMillan went on to say. "We did have some penalties and execution mistakes we will have to fix if we want to improve."

This Friday night the Storm will be in Gastonia to battle the 4-4 Ashbrook Greenwave.

OCTOBER 18, 2018 EDITION Last week's lottery numbers were drawn by Julie Seligman-Gregory, owner of Belmont Walk and Run, 200 N. Main St., Belmont, NC. The winning numbers were 8, 22 & 7.

THE BANNER NEWS LOTTERY Numbers will be drawn each Monday Morning.

Look in next week's Banner-News for the 3 WINNING NUMBERS! Jackpot increases $50 each week until won, then a new jackpot will begin at $50.

We are not responsible for entries lost or late by mail delivery. If more than one correct lottery entry is received, the jackpot will be split between the winners. The Banner-News Lottery Jackpot will cap at $10,000 maximum. The judge's decision is ďŹ nal. Must be at least 18 years old to enter. Employees and immediate family of CF Media not eligible.
