Casino Environmental Assessment complete

By Loretta Cozart The Bureau of Indian Affairs has finished its Environmental Assessment of the proposed casino site on Dixon School Road at I-85 Exit 5. The 674-page report was released on December 18 and residents had 30days to review and submit comments.

The Bureau of Indian affairs will then make the decision whether to transfer the land into trust for the Catawba Indian Nation.

If the transfer of land is approved by the BIA, the Catawba Indian nation would have a two to threeyear timeframe to build the casino.

While conducting the Environmental Assessment, the Bureau of Indian Affairs reported, “As part of the Scoping process, letters were sent to approximately 100 property owners notifying them of the project and seeking their input. TGS staff canvased See CASINO, Page 7A

The Kings Mountain Kiwanis Club disbanded on Dec. 31, 2019, closing a chapter of exemplary service to the community. The history of the Kings Mountain Kiwanis Club parallels that of the City of Kings Mountain itself, and from it one can see the far-reaching influence Kiwanians had in our community through their club work.

According to David Neisler, treasurer and historian for the club,” During the ensuing eighty years, the Kings Mountain Kiwanis Club has quietly played a major role in contributing to the quality of life of our community. The club has purchased medical equipment for the Kings Mountain Hospital, donated activity bus to the local school system, installed an outdoor lighting system at Shu Carlton Stadium, provided dozens of college scholarships, and spearheaded the effort to build an indoor natatorium in Kings Mountain.”

loved charitable endeavor can be traced-back to the club's very first meeting in 1940. Mr. B.N. Barnes, a charter member and Superintendent of Kings Mountain City Schools, was asked how best the club could help needy children in our town.

Mr. Barnes replied that many local schoolchildren were in desperate need of shoes, which prompted the club to inaugurate Shoe Fund, where each club member donated the sum of one dollar in a jar passed around at each club meeting.

Over the next eighty years, well over one hundred thousand dollars was raised to purchase shoes and clothing for those local schoolchildren in need,” he shared.

Kiwanian Helen Hatch shared that the remaining funds in the Kings Mountain Kiwanis Club’s bank account, in the amount of $31,000, would be donated to the Mauney Memorial Library Endowment Fund.

Through this donation, the legacy of the KM Kiwanis Club will live on.

Photo/Herald Archive Club’s organizational meeting was held on March 7, 1940 in the Kings Mountain Woman’s Club. This was the town’s second national service club, according to the Kings Mountain Herald’s account of the event, “Members of the Kings Mountain Men’s Club voted

at their meeting last Thursday to become a member of Kiwanis International…

The Men’s Club is an outgrowth of the Civitan Club which organized here in 1927 and changed to the local club in 1932.”

Dean Adams retires after 60-year career

By Loretta Cozart On December 21, Edgar Lee (Dean) Adams, closed Adam’s Barber Shop on Crocker Road for the last time, retiring from a 60year career as a barber. He worked fifty-five of those years in Kings Mountain.

Six months after finishing Barber School, the Kings Mountain native moved to White Plains, NY with hopes of landing his first job. But the job offers didn’t come quickly enough, so he took a job in a motel laundry. He was pleased when, just four days later, he received a job offer at a local barber shop and left his laundry days behind him.

In 1961, he met Devella Newsome, who caught his eye as she visited a hairdresser across from his barber shop on Grover Street in White Plains, NY. “We started going out and a year and a half, to two years later, we were married.”

In 1965, four and a half years after leaving town, Adams and his wife returned to Kings Mountain.

His great-aunt had offered him a building for a barber shop in the Compact Community. “Adam’s Bar-

Shingles vaccine recommended for those age 50 and older In the United State, two vaccines are licensed and recommended to prevent Shingles: Zoster vaccine live (ZVL, Zostavax) has been available since 2006, according to the Centers for Disease Control. The second vaccine, recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV, Shingrix), became available in 2017 and is the preferred shingles vaccine. If you are allergic to Shingrix, then your doctor may advise you to get the Zostavax vaccine instead.

The CDC recommends that people 50-years old and older get the vaccine to protect against shingles and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), which is a painful, chronic condition that can occur following shingles, a

viral infection that causes a mildly itchy to intensely painful rash. PHN occurs where the shingles rash was and can last months before going away.

Shingrix is given in two doses, separated by 2 to 6 months, to prevent shingles and the complications from the disease. Your doctor or pharmacist can give you Shingrix as a shot in your upper arm. The vaccine is more than 90 percent effective in preventing shingles and PHN. If you have had chicken pox, received Zostavax, or the shingles, you should get Shingrix. If you are unsure if you have had Chicken Pox, the CDC recommends you get the shot anyway.

Talk to your doctor about the shingles vaccine if you are 50 or older. Depending upon your health, one shot may be recommended over the other.

There is no maximum age for getting the vaccine.

Check with your doctor or pharmacist prior to your visit, as this vaccine is sometimes hard to get due to limited production.

According to the CDC, “About 1 out of every 3 people in the United States will develop shingles in their lifetime. An estimated 1 million people get shingles each year in this country. If you’ve ever had chickenpox, you can get shingles. Even children can get shingles. Your risk of shingles increases as you get older.”

Cardio dance program

REFIT Experience coming to Dover Y

By Loretta Cozart REFIT, a cardio dance program, is coming to Dover YMCA on Feb. 7. with a 90-minute experience class for those interested in the fitness phenomenon sweeping the nation. The Dover Y was selected from hundreds of venues for this opportunity.

A REFIT instructor’s training is offered on Feb. 8.

Unlike fitness fads, REFIT’s free classes are taught by local trained instructors held at churches in the community. Dance routines are also available free on YouTube and by subscription.

The REFIT program began when founders Angela Beeler, Catherine Ballas, and Emily Field, of Waco, TX, decided that community was the missing piece in the fitness industry, and that connection was the key to lasting internal and external change.

The three began REFIT on a foundation of higher values, turning a fitness class into a revolutionary movement that transforms lives beyond the workout.

The RE in REFIT stands for ripple effect. The organizations mission states, “We believe that the heart is more than a muscle. That a person is more than a body. That relationships are as important as results. We believe fitness isn’t just for the fit...it’s for the willing.”

Cindy Estridge is a certified REFIT instructor who started teaching classes almost seven years ago in Cleveland County. “Local instructors want to reach as many people as possible because so many women do not realize that they can attend FREE classes with certified instructors every week.,” she said.

“We want all women to have access to fitness and fellowship with other women. Many are uncomfortable going to a gym. They feel too out-ofshape or self-conscious - or maybe they cannot afford a gym membership. Since that time, we have had many participants become certified to teach their own classes.”

Five years ago, local instructors were contacted by

Five years ago, the Dover YMCA began offering REFIT Classes. the YMCA to teach classes for Y members as well. It was a logical fit, because it gave instructors a larger platform to reach more women and men.

According to Estridge, “The Experience Class on Feb. 7 is an amazing, rare opportunity for people to at-

tend a special class and see what REFIT is about. Most of our participants follow the founders on YouTube, so seeing them in person is a huge treat. We have seen women’s lives changed by this program and any REFIT participant will tell you, this is just different.”

Currently, 100 participants and 22 instructors have registered. To sign up for the REFIT Experience Class or Instructor’s Training, visit: https:// refitrev.com/event/charlotte-nc-1/4121754075185/ Cost to attend the Experience Class with the founders is $15; the charge covers their travel expenses from Texas.

Free classes are offered on: Monday: Bethlehem Baptist (Kings Mountain) REFIT, 6:30 pm .

Tuesday: Elizabeth Baptist Church (Shelby), 5:30 pm, REV+FLOW and 6:30 pm REFIT. Thursday: Bethlehem Baptist (Kings Mountain) REV+FLOW 6:30 pm.

“Congress’s passage of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement is longawaited and welcome news for North Carolina’s farmers and manufacturers,” said Senator Burr.

“North Carolina is one of the biggest manufacturing and agricultural producers in the nation. Our small business owners, workers, and farmers rely on free and fair trade to grow their operations, provide for their families, and create more jobs. I was proud to support the USMCA

in Committee and in the Senate today. I applaud President Trump for negotiating a deal that puts America’s and North Carolina’s interests first.”

The Senate Finance Committee voted the USMCA out of Committee on January 7, by a vote of 25-3. The trade agreement passed the Senate on a vote of 89-10 and will head next to the President’s desk to be signed into law.

KIWANIS From Page 1A been a controlling factor in the growth and progress of Kings Mountain, as members have always been ready and anxious to sponsor and contribute to any movement for the betterment of The Best Town in The State,” the Herald shared.

Five new members joined that March 7 meeting: Fuller McGill, W.M. Morehead, R.H. Webb, W.A. Williams, and L.L. Benson.

Charter night was held at the Hotel Charles in Shelby and the Shelby Kiwanis club sponsored the Kings Mountain Kiwanis Club. Aubrey Mauney reported in the Herald, “It was a great occasion for the county – even the banks were closed during the day and 200 gathered to honor.

“Gifts to the local club were presented from surrounding communities.

The Shelby club presented a large table dinner gong and gavel… Rutherford presented a complete records system, the Gastonia Kiwanis presented an American Flag, and the Lenoir club presented the Canadian Flag,” Mauney wrote.

Photos from that day show the grand event at the Hotel Charles, the nicest hotel in the county at the time. The club’s very next meeting on April 25, 1940, the Kings Mountain Kiwanis Club honored the Kings Mountain School Band with a banquet for the rating the band received participating in the State Music Contest in Greensboro the week before.

During their 75th Anniversary, President David Neisler shared other activities in which the club took a leadership role. His research on programs in the early years of Kiwanis noted that former Governor Clyde R. Hoey was speaker on Dec. 4, 1941 on the sub-

ject “War Conditions in Foreign Countries.” Three days later, Dec. 7, 1941, Pearl Harbor was attacked, and America was at war.

With the nation at war the Kings Mountain club did its best to aid the war effort. Several club members served in the Armed Forces, others bought and sold thousands of dollars-worth of war bonds.

Despite gasoline rationing and other shortages, the club started buying wheelchairs, making them available on loan to needy people.

Dr. John C. McGill received the first life membership and Senator J. Ollie Harris received the first honorary membership..

Helen Hatch joined the club in 1992 as the first female member.

In 2000 the club received the Hixson Award from Kiwanis International which honored two deceased members, Dr. D. F. Hord and John L. McGill.

In April 2015, the Kings Mountain Kiwanis Club celebrated its diamond anniversary and honored three of its own.

J.C. Bridges, retired hardware man, joined the club when the club was only five years old in 1945.

He holds the distinction of being the longest-serving member at the time, 70 years. Bridges served as Kiwanis president in 1955.

Grady Howard, retired Kings Mountain Hospital administrator, celebrated his 60 years as a member.

He joined the club in 1955 and was president in 1963.

Hospital administrator for over 30 years, he served in the US Marine Corps and Reserves.

Dr. Frank Sincox, retired medical doctor, celebrated his 50 years as a member. He joined the club in 1964 a year after he moved to Kings Mountain and joined the medical staff at McGill Clinic. He was president of the club in 2008. In 1991 he continued the Kiwanis tradition

The Herald shared, “Funds from tonight’s show will be used for a sidewalk project from the new high school building on Phifer Road.”

From shoes, to busses, to scholarships, civic fundraisers, and a donation to the library endowment fund, Kings Mountain Kiwanians have done fine work for the children of our community. We will remember them when we

We will remember them as we watch students walk along the sidewalk of Phifer Road. While the club may no longer meet, we won’t forget those Kiwanians who quietly worked behind the scenes for our children, because their influence can be seen in all corners of Kings Mountain through the projects they championed over the last seventy-nine years.

Any- of evil, to give you a future thing seems possible, from and a hope.” - Jeremiah becoming wealthy to trav- 29:11 Checkout the following

list of some of the great dreamers who realized it was not too late for them...

• Gary Heavin - He was bankrupt and sentenced to jail in his twenties, but after rededicating his life to God he found success.

In a CBN interview he stated, “I finally got on my knees and said, ‘God, I lived the first half of my life by my will and it’s a mess. I’m going to turn the rest of my life over to You’.” He later founded the fitness chain Curves at age 37.

• Smith Wigglesworth - He began a successful Healing and Evangelist

ministry at age 51.

• Grandma Moses She became an American folk artist who started painting at age 78.

• Abraham & Sarah Their first child was born when Abraham was 100 and Sarah 90.

• Moses – Accepted the assignment to be The Leader and Deliverer of the Israelites at age 80.

This list is encouraging, but how do we get beyond where we are to where we want to go? Below are several sure-fire ways to lay a strong foundation for obtaining your dreams and goals - at any age!

1) Dream Again – Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal or reignite the desire. Then, brainstorm

ideas - no matter how big or challenging. Think about the aspirations you have always wanted to do, or could do, if there weren’t any barriers to overcome. Set aside a time each day to close your eyes and dream about your future.

2) Put Feet to Your Faith – Once you believe you can do something and are dedicated, set daily action steps to work toward your dream. The Bible says that “Faith without works is dead” (James 2:17). It’s not just enough to believe you can do you must take the actions needed as well.

3) Persevere! – Embrace the gift of life. Seize the moment and diligently

work on the vision God has placed in your heart while you have a chance.

You only have one life to live. Persevere to make it the best that it can be!

The realization of your dreams is in your hands!

You CAN do all things through Christ which is your strength. (Philippians 4:13) IT’S NOT TOO LATE!!!

What dream are you going to realize this year?

Lori McAdams “The Illustrated Line” Lori McAdams Chalkboard Barista Detail Scratchboard (Photos provided)

Southern Arts Society opens new exhibit Southern Arts Society in Kings Mountain, NC, presents ‘The Illustrated Line’ an exhibition of works by Lori McAdams on view in the Reavis Gallery January 21 through February 28.

Also, on view in the Founders Gallery are works by Alex Pietersen (photography), Terry Ratchford (colored pencil), Annie Sylling (painting) and Chris Tessnear (mixed media). The public is invited to meet the artists during a reception on Saturday January 25, from 6 - 8 pm.

Lori McAdams is an artist and illustrator based in Belmont NC. She has an artistic interest in antique items that is often reflected in her art. Using fine lines and a great sense of depth, Lori’s sharp attention for detail brings the past into the present. She works mostly in scratchboard, watercolor, colored pencil and acrylic. With scratchboard, which is traditionally black and white, Lori often adds color to bring out the details in her work.

Even when she works from present day inspirations, the graphic quality of her works lends an old world feel to them.

Old buildings, antique and consignment shops, quirky coffee shops and old bookstores are her main hunting grounds for subject matter. Old - and not necessarily expensive – jewelry makes for rich artworks.

Older often repurposed buildings make for brick and stone portraits. Sometimes drawing an object leads to the answer “what is this odd thing?”

Part of this fascination with vintage subject mat-

Lori McAdams Straw Hat mixed media. ter resulted in her series of vintage hats, rendered in color with minute detail in watercolor and occasional acrylic. They are on view at this exhibit, and she plans to continue the series, while seeking secondary art projects to share them on.

Her scratchboard works are rendered in even more detail – with parallel fine

lines creating the tonal varieties. While loving the graphic black and white drawings, she has branched out into using color – not simply for adding hue to the line drawings but using areas or color as the base ink to be scratched away.

One of her favorite projects is working on Southern Arts Society’s annual calendars. Even though these are colorful, hand-pulled screen prints, she uses scratchboard for the original art, which is imaged onto the screen.

The greatest challenge has been reigning in her usual detailed method, and creating simpler, yet effective, calendar pages.

Lori’s work has been exhibited in these North Carolina Galleries: The Charlotte Art League in Charlotte; Southern Arts Society in Kings Mountain; Arts on Main in Gastonia; the Jeanne Rauch Gallery at Gaston College in Dallas; and the Railwalk Studios and Gallery in Salisbury. Lori graduated from Parsons School of Design (BFA), and MA UNC Charlotte (MA).

To see more about Lori and her art visit: www. mcadams-studio.com and lorimcadams.com Southern Arts Society (SASi) Gift Shop & Gallery is located at 301 N. Piedmont Ave. at the intersection of Piedmont and Battleground Avenues, Kings Mountain, NC, in the historic Southern Railway Depot. SASi offers a gift shop, ongoing exhibits and art competitions, programs and classes in a variety of media for artists of all levels.

Alzheimer’s Association presents Understanding Alzheimer’s and Dementia Feb. 11

Who is this?

For those who love history, there are two films about Kings Mountain recorded by H. Lee Waters. One was shot between 1938 and 1940. The other was made in 1942. Kings Mountain Fire Department protected these two records of our history for many years. Now, copies are available at. https://www.digitalnc.org/ thanks to the work at Duke University to preserve Water’s work. Follow the link and search by his Water’s name and Kings Mountain to watch both films.

As time passes, the names and associated with the recorded faces become less and less familiar. To preserve those memories, the Herald will share images and ask readers who recognize the individual to share that information with Loretta Cozart at lhcozart@cccom.com.

This week’s person was featured in the 1938 to 1940 film.

He is playing the banjo along Battleground Ave., but the circumstances behind the performance are not known. Readers can view this mystery person at 30.49 minutes into the video.

The Alzheimer’s Association will make a special presentation on understanding Alzheimer’s and Dementia at Mauney Memorial Library Community Room on Tuesday, February 11 at 5:30 pm.

RSVP @ tinyurl.com/KMTNUAD In the United States alone, more than 5 million individuals are living with Alzheimer’s and 16 million are serving as their unpaid caregivers. The disease is a global crisis that affects numerous families right here in our community. However, no one has to face this disease alone or without information.

The Alzheimer’s Association® has created an education program covering the basics of Alzheimer’s and dementia to provide a general overview for people who are facing a diagnosis as well as those who wish to be informed.

The free one-hour Understanding Alzheimer’s and Dementia program covers the following:

• Explores the relationship between Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.

• Examines what happens in a brain affected by Alzheimer’s.

• Details the risk factors for and three general stages of the disease.

• Identifies FDA-approved treatments available to treat some symptoms.

• Looks ahead to what is on the horizon for Alzheimer’s research.

• Offers helpful Alzheimer’s Association resources.

ADAMS From Page 1A In those days, he worked from 8 am to 8 pm and charged $2 per haircut. “You know, we were way out in the country, so I didn’t charge as much as other barbers. There was

nothing else to do out there like there was in town,” he laughed.

In 1975, Adams moved his business to 523 Crocker Road, where his business remained until December 21, 2020. He had a steady stream of customers who visited him over the years from Kings Mountain and the surrounding communities.

But retirement doesn’t mean Adam’s has slowed down completely. At 79years old, he is a trustee for Mount Olive Baptist Church and “keeps things running,” he says.

On the mirror of his shop, Adams put a simple sign that read, “Retiring Soon, Shop will be closing Saturday, December 21, 2019. It has been my plea-

sure serving you for nearly 60 years! Thank you, Edgar Lee Dean Adams.”

“Being a barber is a nice trade; any place you go you can find a job,” he said. “If you do good work, then good things will come from it, especially if you enjoy being your own boss and working for yourself.”

Kids at higher risk for flu this year

By Loretta Cozart This year, children are at increased risk for the flu even if they got the flu vaccine, according to Anthony S. Fauci, MD Director National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases National Institutes of Health (NIH NIAID).

This year's vaccine is a 58% match for the B/Victoria strain of flu that has hit kids hard this year. Young children, the elderly, and people with weak immune systems are at highest risk for getting the flu.

In preliminary estimates by the NCDHHS, the total number of flu deaths in NC during the flu season is 33, with 11 (33%) of those deaths occurring within the last week.

A total of 39 influenza-associated pediatric deaths have been reported to the CDC in the US during the 2019-2020 flu season. Of those, 28 deaths were associated with influenza B viruses, and all were B/Victoria viruses.

During an interview with CNN last week, Dr. Fauci said of this year's flu vaccine, "It's not a very good match for B/Victoria. It's not an awful match, but it's not a very good match."

Nonetheless, Dr. Fauci urges anyone who hasn't gotten a flu vaccine to get one.

"It's never too late to get vaccinated. Try to get vaccinated

before Oct. 31."

For those who got the flu after receiving the vaccine, he advises, "The flu vaccine is not perfect. It is not a 100 percent perfect vaccine. But the advantages of getting the flu vaccine, verses being unprotected and not getting the flu vaccine, is a very wide difference. A, it can protect you from getting the flu. And B, it could mitigate and dampen the seriousness of the flu you get."

Because viruses mutate, creating a flu vaccine is like hitting a moving target. Locally, doctors started treating the flu as early as September 2019, so we'll see a more prolonged flu season. And, physicians are treating people with various strains of the virus. In some cases, the same patient has had several bouts of the flu with different strains of the virus each time.

If you or your child experiences these symptoms, get treatment right away: • A fever of 100.4F/38C degrees or higher or feeling feverish (not everyone with the flu has a fever) • A cough and/or sore throat • A runny or stuffy nose • Headaches and/or body aches • Chills • Fatigue • Nausea, vomiting and/ or diarrhea (most common in

children) With the flu season in full swing, the CDC recommends the following actions to protect against the virus.

Get your family vaccinated; it is not too late. The seasonal flu vaccine protects against the influenza viruses that research indicates will be most common during the upcoming season. There are several flu vaccine options this flu season.

Avoid close contact with people who are sick. When you are sick, keep your distance from others to protect them from getting sick too.

Stay home when you are sick. If possible, stay home from work, school, and errands when you are sick. This will help prevent spreading your illness to others.

Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing. It may prevent those around you from getting sick. Flu and other serious respiratory illnesses, like respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), whooping cough, and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), are spread by cough, sneezing, or unclean hands.

Clean your hands. Washing your hands often will help protect you from germs. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.

Handwashing: Clean Hands Save Lives

Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs are often spread when a person touches something that is contaminated with germs and then touches his or her eyes, nose, or mouth.

Practice other good health habits.

Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces at home, work or school, especially when someone is ill.

Get plenty of sleep, be physically active, manage your stress, drink plenty of fluids, and eat nutritious food.

Preventing flu at school.

At school, make sure your child's school, child care program routinely cleans frequently touched objects and surfaces, and that they have a good supply of tissues, soap, paper towels, alcohol-based hand rubs, and disposable wipes on-site. Ask how sick students and staff are separated from others and who will care for them until they can go home.

Getting a flu shot is the best-recommended way to protect against the influenza virus. The vaccination isn't perfect, but better than going without one. Flu shots, healthy hygiene habits, and avoiding those who are sick, will improve the odds against suffering the flu this season.

Prepare now for winter driving conditions Are you prepared for winter driving and the hazards cold temperatures bring?

With December behind us and colder weather ahead, drivers should prepare now for wintertime driving conditions. Some items suggested here by Erie Insurance might seem obvious, but others are good suggestions for your emergency kit.

THE BASICS • Cell phone and car charger, with a list of emergency numbers • Fire extinguisher • Two roadside flares

pected to be diagnosed with cancer in 2017. Many of them will need blood, sometimes daily, during their chemotherapy treatment.

A single car accident victim can require as many as 100 pints of blood.

• Quart of oil • Small first aid kit • Flashlight • Multipurpose tool or pocket knife • Tire pressure gauge • Tire inflator • Duct tape • Rags • Your car’s manual • Pen and paper • Help sign EXTRAS If your car has more trunk space, or if you’re planning a long trip, add these to the mix: • Jumper cables or a portable battery booster • Gallon of antifreeze • Extra fuses • Extra flashlight batteries • Basic tools: Phillips and flat-head screwdrivers, pliers, adjustable wrench • Spray bottle with washer fluid • Ice scraper • Granola or energy bars • Bottled water • An approved gas container

• A road atlas, should your phone battery die ADDITIONAL ITEMS Think about the weather, too. Will you need extra water or a warm blanket? If icy roads are likely, a bag of sand or cat litter could provide traction for a stuck tire. You might also be glad to have a folding camp shovel or warm gloves and hat.

Think about your passengers, too. If you have kids and they ride in your car often, think about having items in the emergency kit that will keep them occupied if you’re

stopped for a while. Also consider additional blankets and snacks.

Check your kit occasionally to make sure it’s shipshape, the spare tire is inflated, batteries are charged, first-aid supplies are stocked, water is fresh, and food is dry. Be familiar with how each tool works before you need to use it in an emergency. Also remember that the most important tool you have is common sense; stopping to change a tire in the fast lane is an accident waiting to happen.

Mountaineers knock Jaguars down a notch Forestview’s Jaguars went into Friday night’s Big South matchup with the Kings Mountain Mountaineers at Parker Gym tied with Ashbrook and Hunter Huss for first place in the conference.

But a late third quarter and fourth quarter comeback by the up-and-down Mountaineers finished with an up and a 64-56 victory, that with continued improvement could put them in the battle for another league title.

Sophomore Isaiah Tate had his best overall game of the year with a game-high 34 points, and junior point guard Kobe Paysour did a tremendous job running the offense and grabbing big rebounds on the defensive end to go along with his 11 points.

Both teams battled hard from beginning to end. KM’s defense had a difficult time containing the conference’s leading scorer Logan Botts, who led the Jags with 25 points, but the hawking KM

D caused him to miss a lot of shots as well as keeping the ball away from him in key situations.

After a 12-all tie to end the first period, the Jaguars took a 28-23 lead into intermission before Forestview bult its biggest lead, 36-28, midway through the third quarter.

That’s when KM in general, and Paysour and Tate in particular, began to take control of the game. Paysour hit a pair of free throws and a field goal over the next minute to bring the score down to 38-32, and a layup by Tate and a steal and layup by LT Thomas cut it to 38-36. Forestview built its lead back to 42-38 with 29 seconds remaining before Tate hit a jumper to end a 12-6 KM run heading into the fourth quarter.

Back-to-back buckets by Tate – the latter a trey from the corner – put the Mountaineers up 45-42 at the 7:16 mark of the fourth quarter.

Forestview answered to cut it

Tennis tryouts at KMHS February 12 Tryouts for the Kings Mountain High men’s tennis team will begin February 12 at 4 p.m. at the new KMHS tennis complex.

on file, or take the physical form to practice. No one can participate in practice without a current physical.

For more information contact Coach Rick Henderson via email or text.

Tennis leagues, lessons planned The new tennis courts at Kings Mountain High School will soon be open for play.

KMHS tennis coach Rick Henderson is looking for tennis enthusiasts of all ages for tennis leagues that will be starting in the near future, as well as private tennis lessons for anyone.

“We hope to draw a number of folks that haven’t played in a number of years,” he said. “Hopefully we will draw dozens of folks that are new to the game of tennis.”

Henderson said he is looking to Saturday, April 4 or Saturday, April 11 to begin group and private lessons.

“We will utilize Saturday mornings over the spring, summer and fall for

the group and private lessons,” he said. “I will have some experienced high school players to assist me.

As for the leagues that will depend on how many show an interest.

“I am excited about our new tennis complex and know there are hundreds of other folks in the community that are excited as well,” he added. “Over the last few years there have been numerous folks asking me when the courts are going to be replaced. Well, the dream of having new tennis courts in our community is now a reality.”

Henderson urges anyone interested in participating in a tennis league, group lessons or private lessons to contact him via email or text message.

to 45-44 but Tate hit a fourpoint play on KM’s next trip down court to make it 49-44.

With Tate hitting just about everything he put up, the Mountaineers led 55-48 with 2:36 on the clock, but Forestview rallied to cut it to 55-51 with 1:56 left. The teams traded baskets to make it 57-53. But KM and the Tate-Paysour show wouldn’t surrender the lead.

Tate hit a pair of free throws with 59 seconds left to make it 59-53, Paysour stole the ball with 55 seconds left and the View had to start fouling. Weston Hughes hit one to make it 60-53. Forestview hit a three to make it 60-56, but Tate canned a pair of free throws, Paysour grabbed a big rebound at the other end, and Tate hit two more freebies with 18 seconds left to wrap it up.

Kings Mountain’s girls weren’t as fortunate in the opener as the Lady Jaguars came from behind late in the fourth quarter to win 41-38.

Patriots beat North Lincoln Kings Mountain Middle School’s boys basketball picked up their first TriCounty East Division and third straight win overall last week, 45-14 over the North Lincoln Panthers.

A Micah Ward pass to Nic Cole got the Patriots off to a quick 2-0 lead, and Zavian Smith’s buzzer beater put KM up 5-3 at the end of the first period.

The Patriots got a lift from Ward to start the second period as he dished off assists to Cole and Jack Toney for successful three-pointers. Cole returned the favor to Ward, assisting him on a fast break layup, and Smith and Bryson Brown finished the scoring as KM went up 17-5 at the half.

The third quarter saw more of the same defensive intensity as KM held North to just three points. Cole and Ward combine for 11 points as both of them finished with a team high nine points.

KM entered the fourth quarter leading 32-10.

KM kept its offense going strong. Bradley Floyd’s pass to Jack Toney in the corner for a three extended the Patriots lead to 25.

Floyd’s two free throws, Davasai Goode’s layup and Austin Putnam’s three accounted for the final score.

Playing well on defense were Bryson Brown, Smith, Davashia Goode and Kee’donn Linney.

Cole finished with nine points, three rebounds, two assists, two steals and a blocked shot. Ward had nine points, six boards, four assists and two steals.

How to Choose the Right Hospital for You Dear Savvy Senior, I need to get a hip replacement, and want to find a good, safe hospital to have it done in. What resources can you recommend for evaluating hospitals? I don’t currently have a doctor.

Shopping Around

Dear Shopping, Most people spend more time shopping for a kitchen appliance or flat-screen TV than choosing a hospital. But selecting the right one can be as important as the doctor you choose. Here are some tips and resources to help you research the hospitals in your area.

Hospital Shopping While you may not always have the opportunity to choose your hospital, especially in the case of an emergency, having a planned procedure can offer you a variety of choices.

When shopping for a hospital, the most important criteria is to choose one that has a strong department in treating your area of need. A facility that excels in coronary bypass surgery, for example, may not be the best choice for a hip replacement. Research shows that patients tend to have better results when they’re

treated in hospitals that have extensive experience with their specific condition.

In order to choose a hospital that’s best for you, it is important to discuss your concerns and alternatives with the doctor who is treating you. Some doctors may be affiliated with several hospitals from which you can choose. Or, if you’ve yet to select a doctor, finding a top hospital that has expertise with your condition can help you determine which physician to actually choose.

Another important reason to do some research is the all too frequent occurrence of hospital infections, which kill around 75,000 people in the U.S. each year. So, checking your hospital’s infection rates and cleanliness procedures is also a smart move.

Free Researching Tools There are a number of free online resources that can help you evaluate and compare hospitals in your area, including: •Medicare’s Hospital Compare (Medicare.gov/HospitalCompare): Operated by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, this tool has data on more than 4,000 U.S. hospitals.

• Why Not The Best (WhyNotTheBest.org): Created by the Commonwealth Fund, this is a private foundation that provides performance data on all U.S. hospitals.

• The Leapfrog Group (LeapfrogGroup. org): This national, not-for-profit organization grades more than 2,000 U.S. hospitals on quality and safety.

These websites use publicly available data to rate hospitals on various measures of performance like death rates from serious conditions such as heart failure and pneumonia, frequency of hospital-acquired infections, patient satisfaction and more.

On these websites, you plug in your location to find hospitals in your area.

You can then check to see how well or poorly each hospital manages patients in various conditions.

Two other good sites that can help you choose a good facility include U.S. News & World Report (USNews. com/best-hospitals) and Healthgrades (Healthgrades.com).

U.S News & World Report is an online

publication that publishes a hospital ranking in 17 medical specialties like cancer, orthopedics and urology, and rates common procedures and conditions, such as heart bypass surgery, hip and knee replacement and COPD. They also rank hospitals regionally within states and major metro areas.

And Healthgrades, which is a private for-profit organization, provides free hospital ratings on patient safety and medical procedures, and scores hospitals using a 5-star scale. They also provide comprehensive information on most U.S. doctors including their education and training, hospital affiliations, board certification, awards and recognitions, professional misconduct, disciplinary action and malpractice records, office locations and insurance plans.

Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

NCHSAA Board to require viewing of “CrashCourse” video on concussions starring former NCHSAA athlete CHAPEL HILL, NC – The North Carolina High School Athletic Association (NCHSAA) Board of Directors passed regulations mandating that schools require parents and students to view a concussion education video known as CrashCourse prior to each season. The video was developed by TeachAids, a 501(c)(3) non-profit leader in global education innovation, and researchers at Stanford University.

The video features former NCHSAA star, Bryce Love, a standout running back from Wake Forest High School and Stanford University, narrates and stars in the video that seeks to place viewers in the shoes of a football player in the middle of competition.

CrashCourse aims to raise awareness of the latest science around concussions to shift the conversation away from fear and silence towards knowledge and empowerment. It features curriculum components, first in HD then Virtual Reality, including a short interactive film which puts

the viewer on the field to experience a concussion, a brain fly-through using Stanford Medicine technology, a concussion symptom simulator, as well as viewpoints from top athletes to share the latest medical knowledge on the signs and symptoms of concussions.

The video’s star, Bryce Love, 2018 Heisman Trophy Runner-Up, has a passion for concussion research and education. He noted, "It’s a dream come true to know that my home state will be a leader in the effort to provide CrashCourse to educate youth and parents across all sports. CrashCourse is powerful, engaging and ensures we are arming our sports communities with the most compelling education to keep our players safer and performing at their best.”

NCHSAA Commissioner Que Tucker said, “When our Sports Medicine Advisory Committee (SMAC) came across this resource, they were impressed by the presentation and felt it important to do something to enhance the required con-

cussion education portion of our members’ preseason meetings.” She continued, “The Board felt that CrashCourse is incredibly relatable for high school athletes. It presents information in a quick, logical, understandable and unique way that will highlight the areas athletes and parents need to know while trying to remove some of the stigma associated with reporting potential concussions.”

“CrashCourse is a fantastic tool to raise awareness and understanding of concussions in student-athletes,” said Dr. Josh Bloom, Medical Director for Carolina Sports Concussion Clinic and member of the NCHSAA’s Sports Medicine Advisory Committee. “Simply put, the more our student-athletes know about these injuries, the better. We are proud that North Carolina continues to be a leader in concussion education

and treatment and providing CrashCourse for our high school student athletes is another important positive step.”

About North Carolina High School Athletic Association The NCHSAA is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit corporation that provides governance and leadership for interscholastic athletic programs that support and enrich the educational experience of students in all 418 member schools.

N.C. Transportation Museum

“Blackbeard’s Queen Anne’s Revenge” now open Ahoy, me hearties!

Ready yer sea legs and weigh anchor. Pirates are coming! It’s no prey, no pay for them and no quarter given. Boom about!

The Queen Anne’s Revenge is on the move!

In 1718, the famed and feared pirate, Blackbeard, ran his flagship, the Queen Anne’s Revenge, aground near what is now known as Beaufort Inlet. Actual items from that ship, after spending nearly 300 years in the waters of the Outer Banks, will be displayed at the N.C. Transportation Museum now through March 29, 2020. “Blackbeard’s Queen Anne’s Revenge” is a traveling educational exhibit created by the N.C. Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.

Blackbeard captured the French slave-ship, known as La Concorde, in September of 1717. Renaming the vessel Queen Anne’s Revenge, Blackbeard terrorized the east coast, including a weeklong blockade of the port of Charleston, eventually commanding a flotilla of four ships and 300 pirates.

It was in June of 1718, however, that the Queen Anne’s Revenge ran aground in Topsail Inlet.

The ship was lost, but Blackbeard ‘s adventures continued until November, when the famed pirate was killed in an attack led

by Royal Navy Lieutenant Robert Maynard.

Nearly 300 years later, in 1996, the Queen Anne’s Revenge was discovered at Topsail Inlet, off the coast of North Carolina.

The ship’s identity was confirmed, and ever since, items have been pulled from the depths, painstakingly documented, and preserved. A permanent exhibit is on display at the N.C. Maritime Museum in Beaufort. Through this traveling exhibit, Blackbeard’s legendary story is also being told at locations across the state.

Blackbeard’s Queen Anne’s Revenge features weaponry, nautical tools, and personal items from the ship. Iron spikes that held the vessel together, plates and spoons for ship-

Anne’s Revenge” is a traveling educational exhibit created by the N.C. Department of Natural and Cultural Resources. (Photo provided) board dining, cannon balls featuring a Swedish maker’s mark, grenades, and lead shot are all part of the exhibit. Touch screens tell the pirate’s story and provide information on the shipwreck’s recovery.

Displays explore 18thcentury pirate life, while a gallows and gibbet show how many of these sailors paid for their piratical deeds.

“Blackbeard’s Queen Anne’s Revenge: 1718” also includes hands-on kid’s activities like pirate dress up, with available pirate garb and photo stations. Kids can make their own pirate flag.

A rope tying station shows how to tie the knots used by pirates. Bell ringing activities also show how pirates regulated their day, announcing changes of the watch, mealtimes, prayers, and danger.

Admission to the N.C. Transportation Museum is $6 for adults, $5 for seniors/military, and $4 for children 3-12. Two years of age and under are free. The museum is currently open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Beginning in March, the museum will also be open Sunday

from noon to 5 p.m. More information is available at www.nctrans.org.

‘Grand Ole Opry’ comes to Shelby Feb. 1 The Grand Ole Opry (or a close approximation) is coming to Shelby!

Featuring artists such as TG Sheppard, Janie Fricke and Darin and Brooke Aldridge, it is all part of a benefit concert called “Remembering Earl” presented by the Earl Scruggs Center (ESC).

The concert will take place at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 1, 2020, in Shelby High School’s Malcolm Auditorium.

“Historically, we’ve held a fundraising concert every other year,” says Mary Beth Martin, ESC executive director.

“But it was such a big hit last year that we have decided to do it every year.

We want people to expect that the Earl Scruggs Center will put on a great show annually.”

Martin says in years past the fundraiser has been more of a traditional concert, but this year they decided to go in a different direction.

“We wanted to put on a concert that honors Earl Scruggs and country music’s past, and the Grand Ole Opry was, and still is, an important part of that,” says Martin. “Both Earl and the Opry featured prominently in Ken Burns’ recent documentary ‘Country Music,’ so we thought that people would really enjoy a show like this.”

In addition to including more artists in the concert, the Grand Ole Opry style show will also involve having an emcee who interacts with the other artists throughout the show.

“Our host and emcee is TG Sheppard, and he will not only perform on his own, but also jump in and perform with the other artists, as well,” says Martin.

Sheppard is a seasoned country music star with eight number one hits and 24 top 10 hits.

“He is ranked among the top 100 country artists of all time and is one of the most popular live performers on tour today,” says Martin.

Cherryville residents and husband and wife duo Darin and Brooke Aldridge, will also be performing and are certainly no strangers to the ESC. “They are one are one of the most beloved and successful acts on the bluegrass scene, and they are great friends of the Earl Scruggs Center,” says Martin. “Over the past few

years, Darin and Brooke have performed on the Grand Ole Opry more than 20 times, so they’re veterans of that stage and tremendous musicians. We are delighted that they will be a part of this show.”

Janie Fricke and North Carolina native Billy “Crash” Craddock will round out the list of performers.

General Admission tickets for the show range from $27.50 to $47.50 and can be purchased through the Don Gibson Theatre by visiting their website www.dongibsontheatre. com or by calling 704-487-8114. VIP tickets, which include one VIP concert seat and admission to the VIP reception at the Earl Scruggs Center following the concert, are $125 each and can be purchased from the ESC by calling 704-487-6233.

For more information about the concert or the ESC, visit the organization’s website at www.earlscruggscenter.org or call them at the number listed above.

Finish Line grants award over $2M to community college students more than 3,300 Finish Line Grants have been awarded to students at a total of $2.2 million. The fifth semester of the program began this month.

Governor Cooper announced the Finish Line Grants program in July 2018 after hearing from community college leaders that relatively small financial emergencies were causing students to drop out of their degree or credential program when they otherwise could have graduated. Grants were first made available in September of 2018 for the 20182019 school year.

“It’s hard to overstate the importance of an educated and well-trained workforce,” said North Carolina Commerce Secretary Anthony M. Copeland.

“The Finish Line Grants program is one more tangible way North Carolina supports and develops its future workers, and companies notice and appreciate this commitment.”

All of North Carolina’s 58 community colleges and 23 workforce development boards are participating in the program. Community colleges and workforce development boards collaborate to apply for funding and establish a joint process for reviewing funding requests from students who have completed 50 percent of their degree or credential. Community college students may receive a maximum of $1,000 per semester by contacting their community colleges’ finan-

cial aid office or their local NCWorks Career Center to apply.

“I am always amazed at how a relatively small amount of money can change someone’s life forever and do so much good for our families and our communities,” added Governor Cooper.

Eligible expenses for Finish Line Grants include car repair payments, medical bills, utility bills, and child care expenses. To ensure accountability, the grants are commonly paid directly to the car repair shop, doctor’s office, utility or child care provider.

“A temporary financial emergency shouldn’t stop a student’s momentum toward graduation and a brighter future,” said Peter Hans, president of the NC Community College System. “Finish Line Grants are helping our students overcome barriers to success. We are so grateful for the support.”

Governor Cooper will also join Alamance Community College President Dr. Algie Gatewood, Regional Partnership Workforce Development Board Director Tammy Wall, and Finish Line Grant recipients at Alamance Community College to spread awareness about the Finish Line Grants program and this funding milestone.

ANSWER KEY

On Jan. 14, Governor Roy Cooper announced that the Finish Line Grants program has issued more than 3,000 grants and $2 million since the program was announced in July 2018.

The Finish Line Grants program helps students stay on track to complete their degree or credential when they face unexpected financial emergencies that might otherwise cause them to drop out. Gov. Cooper made the announcement at Central Piedmont Community College (CPCC) in Charlotte, joined by CPCC President Dr. Kandi Deitemeyer, CharlotteWorks President and CEO Danielle Frazier, and several Finish Line Grants recipients.

Finish Line Grants are grants of up to $1,000 awarded to community college students who are on the cusp of completing their education or training and are faced with an unanticipated financial hardship that may prevent them from doing so.

“As students at our community colleges work hard to get skills that will help them find a job, an unforeseen challenge like a car repair shouldn’t compromise their futures,” said Governor Cooper. "I’m proud that the Finish Line Grants program has provided more than 3,000 grants to help students find good-paying jobs to support themselves and their families for years to come.”

As of the end of 2019,
