Local police honor and remember their fallen comrades By Alan Hodge alan.bannernews@gmail.com
Catawba Heights Baptist Church was the scene last week for the annual Gaston County Law Enforcement Memorial Service. Hundreds of offices and other dignitaries from across the county gathered for a moving and magnificent event honoring their comrades who have fallen in the line of duty. The Mt. Holly Police Department hosted the happening. “I am glad you are all here to join me in remembering these Gaston County officers and their families,” Roper said. Following Roper's remarks, Gaston County police chief Joe Ramey and Gastonia police chief Ron Helton read the Roll of Honor for 19 fallen officers from area departments going all the way back to 1926. The Roll included: Chief Albert Painter, Capt. Marshall Griffie, Chief Orville Aderholt, Deputy W. Aaron Dameron, Officer John Smith, Officer S.C. McKenzie, Officer Bryant Birt, Officer Charlie Murphy, Asst. Chief Lloyd Parton, Officer James English, Trooper Cecil Hoffman, Officer Michael Jenkins, Sgt. Lon Haskett, Officer Randy Pendleton, Officer Johnny Wagner,
Officer M. Terry Lyles, Officer Ronald Davis, Officer John Baker, Capt. Byron Carpenter. Guest speaker was Stephen Brackeen, chaplain of Shelby PD and associate pastor of youth at Bethel Baptist Church. Brackeen's remarks came from his heart of hearts- his brother Tim was a Shelby K9 officer who was shot in the line of duty on Sept. 10, 2016 and died two days later. Pastor Brackeen recalled how his brother's fellow officers helped him heal. “I was welcomed into their brotherhood,” he said. He went on to praise police and their work. “Men and women like you made a pledge to stand in the gap and protect homes,” he said. “Everyone is in your care. Everyone needs you. Your works are good works. We will never forget your devotion to our society. Thank you for all you do.” Another speaker was John Strong with the FBI. “Your work is more important than ever,” Strong told the audience of officers. “Law enforcement is a calling and a feeling inside.” Following the Catawba Heights portion of the day, everyone went to Gaston Me- Mt.

Belmont Central Elementary’s Mt. Holly council Carmin Adams is Teacher of the Year greets new employees By Alan Hodge
alan.bannernews@gmail.com
Four employees captured the most prestigious awards presented by Gaston County Schools during the 2018 Evening of Excellence ceremony. The program sponsored by Wells Fargo Bank was held Thursday, May 10 at the Gaston Country Club. Belmont Central Elementary School third grade teacher Carmin Adams was named the Wells Fargo Teacher of the Year and Denise McLean of Highland School of Technology earned the Wells Fargo Principal of the Year recognition. They will represent Gaston County in the regional competitions for 2018-2019. Meghan LeFevers of Bessemer City High School received the Assistant Principal of the Year distinction, and Carrie Minnich, executive director for exceptional children, was chosen as the Central Office Administrator of the Year. As longtime sponsor of the recognition program, Wells Fargo presented

Jeffrey Booker.
As is its wont to do, the Mt. Holly city council took on a varied program of proclamations and public hearings last week. The council recognized several new employees who were introduced by department heads. In the finance and administration section, new workers included Kirk Medlin, Josh Mills, Katie Holland, and Tara Mallory who has been named Deputy City Clerk. Public Works welcomed Jeremy Moss to its ranks. Parks and Rec. added Anne Howard to its staff. Long-time Utilities Dept. employee Charles Rogers had been scheduled for retirement recognition after 29 years, but was unable to attend the meeting. Rogers will be feted at a later date. In recognition of National Peace Officers Memorial Week, mayor Bryan Hough read a proclamation from the City expressing its appreciation for all that officers do. Police Chief Don Roper accepted the proclamation. “The law enforcement officers of Mt. Holly play an essential role in safeguarding the rights and freedoms of the citizens of Mt. Holly,” Hough read. “It is important that all citizens know and understand the problems, duties, and responsibilities of their police department, and that members of our police department recognize theor duty to serve the

Kennedy signed a proclamation which designated May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date falls as Police Week. Currently, tens of thousands of law enforcement officers from around the world converge on Washington, DC to participate in a number of planned events which honor those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice. Local events, like the one held in Gaston County, also take place nationwide.

One that received considerable conversation involved a proposed text amendment change that would prohibit the use of shipping containers as accessory (storage) buildings on commercial or residential property. Staff declared its belief that accessory structures should be permanent in nature and that a shipping container is not permanent.

The proposed change read- “No shipping container shall be used as an accessory building for residential or commercial property. Industrial properties may utilize shipping containers as approved by the Planning and Zoning Department.” Well, several questions arose such as the aesthetics of shipping containers that had been covered in siding or otherwise “beautified”. Another question was what to do about containers already in place. “We need to be cautious as to how this change would impact small business owners,” Mayor Hough mused. City manager Danny Jackson opined that more information and talks on the shipping Anne Howard (pink shirt) has joined Mt. Holly Parks and Rec. container issue needed to be gathered and held and so the question was tabled until a later date.

Certainly as Salvation Church a Christian in a world Gastonia, NC that is lost and so evil, salvationchurchnc.org living a life dedicated salvationchurchnc@gmail.com to Jesus Christ is not always easy. Yes there will be great victorious days, yet there will also be difficult, long, and discouraging days as well. The life of a Christian is not easy, yet it is certainly rewarding.

This past Saturday, I graduated from Liberty University School of Divinity with my Master of Divinity. It has been a long, difficult journey to complete my degree. As a pastor, and a father of four, working on a graduate degree has been tough. Through the hours and hours of research, tests, and papers, I had to work while also making the proper time for my family and congregation. During the difficult times, I remembered the commitment I had made to God and myself to finish the course. The Apostle Paul wrote in 2 Timothy 4, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith� (KJV). As Paul wrote these words he sat in a prison cell awaiting execution for his testimony of Jesus Christ. Very soon Paul would be martyred by the Roman Emperor Nero in the city of Rome. One can only imagine the thoughts that flooded Paul’s mind as he faced certain death. For Paul, he chose to reflect on his past work as a servant of Jesus Christ. In his writings to his young friend and fellow Christian Timothy, Paul reminded him of his service as a missionary and church planter. Paul told Timothy that he had finished his course, as his life was near its end. From the time Jesus spoke to Paul on that road to Damascus, he had dedicated his life to telling others about Jesus Christ. Paul did everything Jesus asked him to do, and now Paul would also die for Jesus Christ. Paul indeed “kept the faith.� Paul would go on to say, “Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness� (2 Timothy 4:8, KJV). Paul knew as his life on earth ended, his heavenly reward awaited. Paul’s life and work shows the com-

Safe boating tips offered for Holiday weekend The Lake Wylie Marine Commission (LWMC) has a message for everyone out on area lakes and waterways during coming holiday weekend Preserve Your Life -Wear A Life Jacket! According to the U.S. Coast Guard’s 2016 Recreational Boating Safety Statistics (the latest records reported in the country),
wearing a U.S. Coast Guardapproved life jacket is the simplest life-saving strategy for recreational boaters. They have the data to back up this advice: •80% of boating deaths are due to drowning •83% of these victims were not wearing a life jacket •Two-thirds of drowning victims were good swimmers Don’t think drowning
can never happen to you or a member of your family. IT CAN! Be safe while you’re out boating. Whether you are an experienced swimmer or new to being on the water, a life jacket can save your life – but only if you wear it!

Students chosen for Commissioners’ School 2018 Fifty-seven students from Gaston County Schools were chosen to attend the James S. Forrester Commissioners’ School of Excellence (CSE) June 17-28 at Belmont Abbey College. CSE is a unique, twoweek summer residential learning experience for rising tenth graders in Gaston County. It is similar to the prestigious Governor’s School of North Carolina program, which is for high school juniors. “The Commissioners’ School provides outstanding enrichment opportunities for our most promising high school students,” stated Superintendent of Schools W. Jeffrey Booker. “The program requires students to concentrate on developing their leadership, problemsolving, communication, and other skills, which prepares
them to assume immediate roles as high school leaders and future roles as Gaston County leaders.” CSE students are chosen based on academic performance, extracurricular activities, leadership potential, self-motivation, and written expression.

Friends and foes on and off the softball field By John Wilson john.bannernews@gmail.com
South Point softball head coach Leah Brooks and East Gaston softball head coach Casey Wilcox don’t exactly have a run of the mill relationship. Wilcox and Brooks competed against each other in high school, were teammates in college and now once again compete against each other in a whole new setting. A little over ten years ago their names were a bit different. Coach Wilcox was then Kaci Bentley. Kaci played softball at Ashbrook High School. Over in Belmont, Leah Brooks was known as Leah Gibson. Leah also played softball, but for the South Point Lady Raiders. At that time there was a tough rivalry between the two schools, both members of the Big South 2A/3A Conference. Softball is a close knit group of people. In many cases people get to know who you are, on the field and off. Even though they were from different schools and two years apart in age, Leah and Kaci already had a con-
nection. “I knew of her,” Kaci said of Leah. “She was two years behind me. You come to know people.” At that time the connection wasn’t much. Just a case of two girls who played against each other from different schools. For many people that would be it. Two players who vaguely knew each other, but not for these two. These two players would meet again. Kaci graduated from Ashbrook and went on to play college ball at Averett University in Danville Virginia. After Kaci left for college Leah played on at Belmont until she graduated in 2009. Little did either girl know that their paths were about to cross again. At the time of Leah’s graduation from South Point, Kaci was an established player at Averett who was playing centerfield. Like Kaci, Leah decided to give Averett a shot. When the young freshman from Belmont joined the team Kaci was thrilled to have somebody from Gaston County there.
“There was a comfort factor,” coach Wilcox added. “Hey there is someone from the same hometown! My initial thought was she is just a pistol.” The two players soon started to get to know each other. Some family members of Averett athletes purchased a house in Danville. Players from the softball team soon started renting rooms at the house that became known as “The Softball House”. The Softball House was the hub of all the team’s activities Coach Wilcox has fond memories of her time at The Softball House and the time she spent playing with Leah. “We could talk about high school,” Wilcox recalled. “We were able to relate. The rivalry didn’t matter. We were glad to have her. We knew she could play.” Coach Brooks also had fond memories of the first time she ran into Kaci at Averett. “Kaci was one of the first two people I met when I went up there. The other was Heather Carnes who was also from Ashbrook,” Brooks
Henry Sparks signs letter of intent with Belmont Abbey Golf The Belmont Abbey Men’s Golf program has signed Henry Sparks to a national letter-of-intent, head coach Jason Gault announced
today. Sparks will be a freshman during the 2018-19 season. A native of Hampshire, England, Sparks attends the
Yoder named to Google Cloud Academic All District Baseball team Thomas Yoder (pictured) has been named to the Google Cloud Academic All-District Baseball Team as announced by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Yoder was Belmont Abbey’s nomination for the Conference Carolinas Murphy-Osborne Award which is reserved for the top senior. The senior was named to the all-tournament team in Conference Carolinas baseball championship. The Cary, N.C. native, led the team in home runs, was second in RBIs and fifth in runs. Yoder recorded 12 multiple hit games this season, including
three hits on five occasions. The catcher drove at least two runs 15 times and had a career-best five RBIs vs. King in the league tournament. The 2018 Google Cloud Academic All-District Baseball Team, selected by CoSIDA, recognizes the nation’s top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom. First-team Academic All-District honorees advance to the Google Cloud Academic All-America ballot, with first- and secondteam Academic All-America honorees to be announced in June.

Hampshire Collegiate School, where he has enjoyed a stellar junior golf career. He shot a career-low 65 to qualify for the Junior European Open at the Romsey Golf Club, breaking the previous record held by Justin Rose (2013 U.S. Open Champion) by three strokes. Sparks recorded rounds of 72-74-73-74, to finish in the top-25 at the South England Boys Championship, played at the Sherborne and Yeovil Golf Course. He also earned a third-place finish at the Nick Faldo Series South Championship at Royal Ashdown Forest, carding rounds of 73-72-77. Sparks is a junior champion at Stoneham Golf Club with rounds of 71-73. Off the course, Sparks also plays football (soccer) and represented his state in both cricket and golf. Belmont Abbey photo
South Point softball head coach Leah Brooks (second from left) and East Gaston coach Kaci Wilcox (second from right) meet with an umpire at a recent South Point East Gaston softball game. Brooks and Wilcox played against each other in high school, were teammates in college and now coach against each other in high school. Photo by Jennifer McHenry added. “My first thought was being a freshman and not knowing a lot it was nice to have someone from the same area with me to lead me and give me guidance. Ashbrook was a big rivalry when I was at South Point. Having Kaci and Heather there tied both worlds together. Hometown and softball.” Brooks never lived at The Softball House, but she spend most of her time there hanging with her teammates. Coach Wilcox was a real friend to that freshman from Belmont. “Kaci was a person who if you were upset you wanted to talk to,” Brooks said. “She always got you in a good mood.” In 2010 coach Wilcox graduated from Averett and came down to Gaston County where she eventually became a teacher and ended up taking over the East Gaston softball team in 2014. Leah Brooks on the other hand took a similar, but slightly different path. Brooks left school in 2012 to start a family. She is currently working on her degree at UNCC. She now works at Belmont Central as a teacher’s assistant. Coach Brooks took over the Lady Raiders softball team in 2014. After leaving college both coaches kept up with each other but didn’t know everything the other was doing. Both ladies started a family and started embarking on their journey of life. Once again the former rivals turned friends were about to face off. This time as coaches. Coach Wilcox realized that she was going up against Leah when she got the a softball schedule. “I got the schedule and saw where she was coaching South Point,” Wilcox went on to say. “I remembered the games we had were always cool between South Point and Ashbrook. Now this has rekindled that. Its come a full
circle with East Gaston being long time rivals with South Point.” Just like they did in high school, Coach Brooks and Coach Wilcox go at it twice a year on the softball field. Only this time they are calling the shots from the coaching box. As spirited as the rivalry may be between East Gaston and South Point these two coaches are still good friends, on and off the field. Life has added a bit of spice to things. “Our kids are about the same age,” coach Brooks laughed. “We see each other on the t-ball field.” Even though they may be rivals again there is still a bit of room for a little bit of teamwork. The unique nature of the Southwestern 2A Conference makes it imperative that the only two schools in Gaston County in the conference work with each other.
When the conference was formed it was made up of schools from Rutherford and Cleveland County that had played against each other for years. In a manner of speaking East Gaston and South Point are kind of the conference interlopers. “We are the only two teams from this county in the new conference,” Wilcox noted. “We band together.” “Exactly,” Brooks added “We have to stick together. We’re going against a group of teams that have always played against each other.” As the years go on there is no doubt that the rivalry between these two friends will continue. Who knows what will happen. Maybe someday in the not to distant future Leah’s kids will be lining up against Kaci’s kids, or they may even be on the same team. Who knows!

Students participate in Special Olympics Spring Games The Gaston County Special Olympics Spring Games were held Friday, April 20 at North Gaston High School. This year marked 50 years of Special Olympics, and more than 500 volunteers helped 356 student-athletes compete in track and field events, including the 100-yard dash, 50-yard dash, 25-yard dash, 25-yard walk, and a tennis ball throw. Student Daniela Velasquez, who serves as president of the North Gaston Project Unify Club, said, “The athletes are amazing, and it’s a joy to see the smiles on their faces as they compete against one another and receive their ribbons.” The opening ceremonies included a performance from the North Gaston Unified Dance Team to “We’re All in this Together,” the W.C. Friday Middle Project Unify Club performing “We Are the Champions” through sign language, the parade of athletes, the national anthem sung by North Gaston students Shelby Parker, Daniela Velasquez, and Olivia Taggart, the Special Olympics Athlete Oath read by Timothy O’Shea of Stuart W. Cramer High School, and the ceremonial torch run by Nickolas Canipe of Lowell Elementary. Sheriff Alan Cloninger addressed the athletes and the Gaston County Sheriff’s Office helped to host and orga-
nize the competition. There also was an “Olympic Town” area with games and activities for the athletes to enjoy. Many Gaston County Schools Project Unify groups were represented at the games. Project Unify brings together students with and without disabilities to create a culture of acceptance and respect. Students created signs and banners for the partici-
pants and cheered for them during the competition. Ashley Anderson, program coordinator for Gaston County Special Olympics, expressed her appreciation to the more than 500 volunteers. “It is very exciting,” said Anderson. “We’re delighted with the support we receive year after year from the community.”

Gaston Braves baseball set to begin play By Art Shoemaker As springtime turns to summer American Legion baseball cranks up for another season of play. Belmont American Legion Post 144 and Stanley Post 266 will again co-sponsor the GBraves. Practice sessions began on May 19 to select an 18 man squad to complete in the Western Division of Area IV. North Carolina is divided in four areas and Area IV is made up of teams from Monroe to Asheville. The Gaston Braves select players from the following high schools: East Gaston, South Point, Stuart Cramer and a portion of North Gaston. These schools traditionally have good baseball programs which normally results in a very competitive team for our local American Legion posts. The G-Braves enjoyed a most successful 2017 season finishing with a 21 win season and placed as one of the four top teams in the western
part of the state. Mark King will again serve as head coach assisted by Kenneth Pasour and Justin Williams. Jeff Gibson is the Athletic Director and is considered by most Legion baseball observers as the top Athletic Director in the state. Gibson annually makes certain that the team has the best in uniforms and equipment and provides proper travel arrangement for road games and well as post game meals. The first round of play consists of 18 games beginning May 24 and ending on June 30. Post season tournament play begins in early July. Abbey Yard on the campus of Belmont Abbey College will again serve as our home field. This is an excellent arrangement as the Abbey is geographically located in the center of our drawing area for players and an easy commute for our fans. The fine folks at Belmont Abbey College have been very accommodating to our American Legion officials in discussions as
Beau Adams, Alex Coffey, Ben Bowman, Luke Bumgarner, Caleb Hager, Landan Burr, Grant Tilley, Ethan Shell, Dosi Jonas, Jacob Landis, Cameron Hilton, Preston Connor, Scottie Lee, Grant Snelson, Michael McCroie, Charlie Black, Zack Adams, Wesley Hall, Jason Maggs, Carter Merrill, Jerimah Rhuw. Photo by Jeff Gibson plans were formulated to play our games at the Abbey. We extend a sincere thank you to Athletic Director Steven Miss and his Assistant Justin Bates for their support as we prepare for playing our games at the Abbey this summer. Additionally, a thank you is in order to Sam Robinson and Choice Beverages USA Beverage for helping us with our concession needs. A big change this year is that games will consist of seven innings rather that nine as has been the case in past seasons. This change was dictated by a pitch count for pitchers that protects these young athletes from possible injury. Fan attendance was excel-
lent last season and Legionnaires are busily preparing Date Thur. May 24 Tues. May 29 Wed. May 30 Fri. June 1 Sat. June 2 Mon. June 4 Wed. June 6 Fri. June 15 Sat. June 16 Fri. June 22 Sat. June 23 Mon. June 25 Tues. June 26 Wed. June 27 Fri. June 29 Sat. June 30

Five Storm softball players make all conference By John Wilson john.bannernews@gmail.com
2018 was a very big year for the Stuart Cramer Storm softball team. Cramer finished the year 16-9 overall and 9-5 in the Big South 3A. LOOSE PARTS Recently the Big South 3A All-Conference team was announced and five Cramer softball players landed on the roster. The selections reflect a team that is diverse and talented in many ways. The Cramer selections were; Carely Womack, Pitcher Gracie Wright, Infielder Tiara Davis, Infielder Kaylie Nelson, Outfielder Leslie Hicks, Utility Player Cramer head coach Matt Scholz credits these girls with propelling Cramer into the playoffs and rewriting what Cramer is capable of on the softball field. Pitcher Carley Womack was named the Big South player of the year. Carely is a very capable player who has a lot to offer. “Carley had an all around good year,” coach Scholz said. “She hit the ball really well and when she got on base we knew she always had a chance to score. On the mound Carley got better as the year went by and it really helps when your pitcher can have 100 plus strikeouts. That takes a lot of pressure off CRANKY GIRL of the defense.” Carley ended the year with with 16 wins, 102 strike outs and a .471 batting average. Womack also scored 35 runs. Infielder Gracie Wright had a good year as well. “Gracie had a great year hitting,” Scholz said. “She was our number four hitter in the lineup and I always liked seeing Gracie up at bat with runners on base. She didn’t mind the pressure and more times than not drove the base runners in.” Wright finished the year with a .500 batting average. She also belted in 27 RBI’s. Catcher Tiara Davis was selected as an infielder. She held her own and delivered. She caught for the Storm in all 25 games. “Tiara was a workhorse for us behind the plate,” coach Scholz noted. “She prided herself on not letting balls in the dirt get behind her. Also, Tiara was our power hitter. She hit .473 and had 10 doubles, three triples, and two home runs.” Kaylie Nelson was selected all-conference due to her versatility and an ‘I can do it’ mentality. “Kaylie isn’t your typical fundamentally sound outfielder,” Scholz noted. “Kaylie is the aggressive, I can catch anything anywhere, fly around, sometimes basket catch, sprint to a spot outfielder that amazes everyone with some of the catches she makes. Kaylie was our most dependable outfielder and we were able to move her to left field or center field whenever we needed. Offensively she had a good year at the plate hitting .323 and we could rely on her to move runners.” Nelson proved to be a talented bunter. She led the team with 11 bunts. Leslie Hicks made all conference as a utility player. Hicks had a steady glove all year. “Leslie had an exciting senior year starting out even before the season when she signed to play college softball at Columbia International University,” coach Scholz added. “During the season Leslie was very reliable at second base for us. Offensively, Leslie hit .381 and had a career year on the bases stealing twenty of them.” Cramer will lose some of their star talent next year to graduation. However Womack and Wright will return to form the nucleus of next year’s team.
