Celebrating Zoe’s 16th Brevard family prepares for birthday by helping others family gathering in 2020

By Loretta Cozart

By Loretta Cozart Zoe Bachman’s family will celebrate her 16th birthday with several events on November 2 at Chestnut Ridge Baptist Church from 8 am to 12 pm. Zoe fought and lost a hard battle with Newmann-Pick disease at just 2 ½ years-of-age.

In memory of what would have been Zoe’s 16th birthday, the family is collecting items for the Family Support Center at Duke Children’s Hospital and Ronald McDonald House in Durham. They will also host a blood drive at Chestnut Ridge Baptist Church from 8 am to 12 pm on that day.

“I wanted to do something special for her 16th birthday,” said Zoe’s mom, April Van Dyke. “We received so much support from the community when Zoe was here. The Family Support Center at Duke brought in food for the parents and had all kinds of activities. They are a nonprofit, so we thought this event would be a good way to thank them.

“We stayed at Ronald McDonald house during Zoe’s pre-testing, prior to her being admitted to the hospital. So, we want to thank them too,” Van Dyke said.

Zoe passed away just 21 months after she was diagnosed with Newmann-Pick disease. The family started noticing a change in Zoe at nine-months-old and genetic testing returned a diagnosis of Newmann-Pick disease. In Zoe’s case, the disease caused both neurological issues and lung

Zoe Bachman would have been 16 years-old on December 19.

Photo provided damage.

Zoe’s doctors recommended a stem-cell transplant, which slows down or stops the process of the disease. Her first transplant was not successful, so a second transplant was recommended.

All the while, friends and family back in Kings Mountain did their part to support the family with fundraisers. Van Dyke’s parents held a dinner. Zoe’s father is in the National Guard and a huge barbecue fundraiser was held at Kings Mountain’s Armory while the parents were with Zoe at the hospital.

Around the community, yard sales were held. Zoe’s uncle organized several golf tournaments in Lincolnton, the last event occurring just a week before Zoe passed away. “The support we received from the community was just

amazing,” Van Dyke said as she wiped away tears.

“I don’t want people to forget Zoe,” she said. “Her 16th birthday is December 19. I want to thank the community for helping us keep Zoe’s memory alive and for their continued support and love over the last 16 years.

“When people tell me their memories of Zoe, it warms my heart knowing she had an impact on others that they carry with them still,” she said.

If you would like to register for the blood drive or donate items for Duke’s Family Support Program or Ronald McDonald House in Durham, email April Van Dyke at endurefightlive06@gmail.com or send her a message on Facebook.

Barbara Wollenberg recently traveled from Frankfort, Germany to Kings Mountain, North Carolina. She is a descendant of Zacariah and Fannie Brevard who were born slaves. Wollenberg visited the locations where the first historical gathering of reconnected families will be held in 2020.

By Loretta Cozart Cleveland County announced One Community Funding Our Future, an initiative to increase awareness about the programs and services that will be funded by the additional sales tax that Cleveland County residents will have the opportunity to vote for on the Nov. 5 ballot.

If passed, the sales tax would change from 6.75 percent to 7 percent. According to the county, this increase equates to approximately $1.50 per month for the average consumer and the county could begin collecting the tax on April 1, 2020.

The Sales Tax Referendum will be located at the end of the ballot. When voting, voters will be asked to vote FOR or AGAINST a one-quarter of a percent increase to the local sales and use tax. This is a countywide sales tax referendum to fund education and community capital projects for the County’s 15 municipalities.

Exemptions from the sales tax include commonly purchased items like unprepared food (i.e.

groceries), gasoline, prescription drugs, and motor vehicles.

This tax will apply to all persons shopping in Cleveland County, not just county residents.

There are no restrictions on the use of this tax and Cleveland County plans to use all funds generated for education and community projects.

When asked if it were possible these funds could later be used in other ways, Janet Hart, Cleveland County’s Public Information Officer replied, “The revenue from the increased sales tax is not restricted to funding specific projects. However, all the funding from the increase in sales tax will be evenly allocated to school projects and community projects.

“Therefore, in the future, we would not divert the additional sales tax revenue for other purposes,” she said. “The schools will determine and prioritize projects for the funding they receive from the additional sales tax revenue and the municipalities will apply for funding for projects through a County grant process from the additional sales

CB

tax revenue.”

In 2007, the NC General Assembly granted county boards of commissioners the authority to levy, subject to voter approval, an additional one quarter of a percent county sales tax. On Aug. 4, the Cleveland County Board of Commissioners approved a resolution calling for a Nov. 5 referendum concerning the one quarter of a percent county sales and use tax.

A total of 46 counties in North Carolina have approved the one-quarter of a percent sales tax referendum including Gaston, Lincoln, Catawba and Rutherford Counties.

In an effort to provide citizens with information about how they can be part of “One Community Funding Our Future”, the County has created a webpage at www.clevelandcounty.com with information and frequently asked questions.

If you have questions about this Sales Tax referendum, contact Kerri Melton, Assistant County Manager at 704-4844816.

A Pastor’s resume Having because the congregation served as always seemed to find a Baptist fault with the pastors. pastor for Most pastors were rejected 54 years, when the people just read I’ve seen the resume. Some didn’t quite a few have enough experience, resumes. some too much, some not I have enough education, some never seen DAVID A. IRISH too much and so on. a resume Chaplain (Lt. Col.) One day a board memUS Army w h i c h ber, who was getting very Kings Mountain reads like tired of this decided to the one do something. So the next that was shared with me Sunday, he got up in the pulsome time ago. (Author un- pit and announced that he known). had another resume to share with the congregation. Most A church was in need of of them sat back, folded a pastor for some time but their arms and began to liswas having trouble getting ten; ready to see what faults one; but not because pas- they could find on the new tors weren’t applying, but applicant. The board mem-

ber began to read and the resume went like this…

“Dear church members, I am writing to apply for the position as your pastor. My experience is more along the lines of evangelist but I believe I could fill your position adequately. I’ve never attended any Bible school per say but I have a lot of field experience. I don’t have a degree on my wall, or a wall for that matter. I’ve traveled around most of my life, renting and doing odd jobs to support myself and preaching wherever I was invited; churches, streets, even jails. As a matter of fact, I’ve been thrown in jail several times and been involved in a few public squabbles. I’ve

been accused of being anti-semantic, anti-authority and causing disturbances almost everywhere I go. But I did have a few conversations to Christianity during my ministry as well as a few healings. I’ve been accused of preaching too long…on one occasion I preached a rather lengthy message and a man fell out of an upper story window and was killed. Thank you for considering my application.”

Most of the people looked up at the deacon with smirks of condemnation while others chuckled out loud. One man stood up and still laughing asked the deacon, “Does this guy actually excpect us to seriously consider him for our pastor? Just what’s this fellow’s name anyway?

The deacon replied that the letter was signed…The Apostle Paul. You could have heard a pin drop!

■ LIFESTYLES

DAR celebrates Constitution Week

By Robin Meyer To celebrate Constitution Week, which takes place annually September 17 – 23 each year, the Colonel Frederick Hambright DAR Chapter presented framed copies of the Constitution to five elementary schools in our area. Regent Libby Putnam and chapter member Robin Meyer visited East, North, West, Bethware and Grover Elementary Schools and presented the gift prior to September 17.

The September meeting of the DAR chapter took place at Temple Baptist Church on Sept. 24. The guest speaker was David McDonald, 8th grade Social Studies teacher at Kings Mountain Middle School.

Mr. McDonald spoke on the importance of the Constitution and its enduring legacy.

Several of Mr. McDonald’s students and their parents attended the meeting.

October found the chapter helping with festivities to celebrate the 239th Anniversary of the Battle of Kings Mountain. After the SAR sponsored wreath-laying ceremony on the battlefield, members joined other DAR chapters from both North and South Carolina to provide a covered dish luncheon for the Overmountain Victory Marchers who had retraced the journey of our Patriot Ancestors who fought at the Battle of Kings Mountain.

The Colonel Frederick Hambright Chapter will again this year sponsor a Wreaths Across America Ceremony at Mountain Rest Cemetery to honor our local Veterans who are buried there. The ceremony will take place on December 14 at noon, so mark you calendars to attend and help place wreaths.

There are close to 1300 Veterans buried at Mountain Rest Cemetery and all need to be honored. Please consider purchasing one or more wreaths. Last year the chapter was able, with the help of local citizens and other organizations from across the country, to place over 400 wreaths. Please help make sure that all Veterans get a wreath this year.

Wreaths can be purchased in memory or honor of anyone. You can purchase online by going to wreathsacrossamerica.org/ nc0200p. You can also send a check for $15 per wreath made out to DAR to 131 Wright Road, Kings Mountain, NC 28086. If you wish the wreath is placed on a specific grave, or that the wreath be placed in honor or memory of someone, include a note with your check.

The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution was founded in 1890 to preserve the memory and spirit of those who

Proud Mountaineer supporter

It is true that high school students exemplify Mountie Pride, wearing the black and gold and supporting their team during every battle.

But being a Mountaineer isn’t just for high school students. After all, Kings Mountain is the home of the Mountaineers.

Our football team practices for months before taking the field at Gamble Stadium. Their outstanding performance on the gridiron is reflected by their current #2 ranking in the NC High School 3A Football Rankings. Way to go Mounties. Thanks to the support of many students, faculty, coaches, and citizens, the team continues to impress.

The Mountaineer Cheer Squad brings Mountie spirit to every game, no matter the score or the weather. They bleed black and gold and it shows in all they do. Young and old enjoy watching the Cheer Squad and aspiring youngsters are more mesmerized by watching the acrobatics than the game.

The Marching Mountaineer band brings the beat, accenting every play as the team brings the heat on the field. The band puts on a great halftime show in both dress and performance, keeping fans entertained. Their years of training and practice shine brightly under the Friday night lights.

The Touchdown Club has done an outstanding job in both raising funds and executing beautiful renovations in John Gamble Stadium and on the football field. The artificial turf is beautiful.

Underneath, the field, the ground is stable, and the work done there will support the team for generations.

Kings Mountain fans are second to none, filling the stadium and over-flowing the bleachers with fans sitting on every surface

available on the home side. The sea of black and gold is impressive, both at home and away. Our opponents know Kings Mountain Mountaineers are a force to be reckoned with at every game.

Whether you graduated from KMHS, have kids who graduated, or cheered on students there in any capacity, be it sports, music, sciences, or the arts, you are a Mountaineer!

Being a Mountaineer is a way of life. We love our sports and we support each other. Whether you donate to the Touchdown club, cheer on the team, man the concession stand, take tickets, direct traffic, coach, teach, feed the students, clean the facility, broadcast the game, report the scores, or photograph the game, you are a Mountaineer! It takes a village.

On Friday, October 18, Kings Mountain Mountaineers will line the streets of West Mountain and Railroad Avenue when the Homecoming Parade 2019 steps off at 3:30 p.m. The parade begins and ends at the Amphitheatre at Patriot’s Park with a pep rally.

The event is from 2:00 to 5:00 PM. Afterward, go to John Gamble Stadium to cheer on our Mountaineers at the Homecoming game.

All the schools in the Kings Mountain portion of the school district will be released early so they can take part in this special event. To be a Mountaineer is to teach Mountie Pride. So, bring your children to this event and share that legacy with the next generation of Mountaineers.

There are several class reunions meeting at the game and sitting together in special sections. You’ll probably see them around town on Saturday, too.

So, be sure to welcome all Mounties back to Kings Mountain, the Home of the Mountaineers!

Every week, people are looking for businesses just like yours.

Make your business visible to over 6500 local customers each week in the Kings Mountain area.

Copies available at locations all over Kings Mountain and Grover or at the Kings Mountain Herald office.

Mountaineers host Ashbrook for homecoming Kings Mountain’s Mountaineers will try to bounce back from their only loss of the season Friday when they host the Ashbrook Green Wave at 7:30 p.m. at John Gamble Stadium.

It’s homecoming for the Mountaineers, who want

to send the alumni home happy against winless but very dangerous Ashbrook team.

Although Ashbrook is 0-6, they have played some of the area’s best teams very close ball games. All of their losses have come

against some of the best teams around like Clover, SC, Kannapolis, Watauga and Crest.

Mountaineer Coach Greg Lloyd knows from tough battles in the past that his team can’t afford to take the Green Wave lightly.

“They’re a very good team,” he said. “They’ve played a very tough schedule. Last week they gave Crest a tough game for three quarters, and Forestview had to score in the last minute to beat them. If we overlook them we’ll go down

again. We have to rebound and play much better than we did last week.

“They run an old school offense,” Lloyd added.

“They’re the best 0-6 team you will see. They’ve played a very tough schedule. We will have to be ready.”

The Mountaineers will still be without the services of starting tight end Bryce Fisher and defensive back Chazz Armstrong. KM will have an open date next week and Lloyd hopes to have both back when Forestview comes to town on November 1.

Mountaineers fall to Huskies

Kings Mountain’s Kobe Paysour is knocked to the ground in the end zone and Hunter Huss’s Jacob Brackett intercepts pass to preserve a 21-16 Huskie victory.

Spikers sweep Wave, Warriors assists and five digs and Andrea Melton provided seven service points, 12 digs and 18 serve receptions.

The JV ladies improved to 15-6 overall. They are undefeated in the conference with a 9-0 record.

In action last Tuesday the Lady Mountaineers defeated Gastonia Ashbrook 25-10, 2515, 25-15.

Kylie Bearfield provided 17 service points. Abbie Harris had eight service points and six kills, Aaliyah Byers nine kills, Emma Goff 10 kills and three blocks and Kyann Crocker 10 serve receptions and 11 digs.

In JV action, Kings Mountain won 25-3, 26-12.

Ashlyn Wood had 11 service points and six assists.

Andrea Melton had 10 service points, six digs and three serve receptions, and Mary Bearfield added five digs, six serve receptions and three kills.

ter in the fourth quarter.

The Mountaineers were turned back by strong Huss defensive plays, including one in which a Huss defender knocked KM’s All-American receiver Koby Paysour to the ground in the end zone, allowing another Huskie to intercept the ball.

As has been the case in most games this year, Paysour was double-teamed all night but he still managed to catch numerous short passes to keep possible scoring drives alive.

But, take nothing away from the talented Huskies who with two weeks to prepare for the Mountaineers put on an impressive display of football.

“We knew it would be a fight,” said KM Coach Greg Lloyd. “They were up for us.

They want us more than anybody. They had two weeks to prepare and they were ready to play.

“After they got us down two touchdowns early we played a lot better,” he added. “But we had some things go against us. We had some bad breaks and just hope we can get another game against them in the playoffs.”

After Huss drove the opening kickoff in for a fouryard TD by talented QB Zo Wallace, the Mountaineers mounted a drive inside Huss territory but fumbled.

Early in the second quarter the Huskies got a 26-yard TD pass from Wallace to Malik Corry, but missed the PAT and led 13-0.

Kings Mountain’s Mountaineers experienced some Murphy’s Law, but they also failed to capitalize on some opportunities and lost to Hunter Huss 21-16 in a Big South Conference game Friday night at Huss.

The Mountaineers fell behind 13-0, rebounded to take a 14-13 lead and then experienced one of the most unusual plays you will ever see as Huss scored the winning touchdown on a pass that was deflected by a Mountaineer into the hands of a Huskie, then fumbled twice before another Huskie fell on the ball in the end zone for a TD. After KM battled back to take a 14-13 lead on an 18-yard Ethan Reid to Orlando Odums pass with 31.4 seconds left in the first half, the Huskies got a 38-yard kickoff return to midfield and three plays later scored when Zo Wallace’s deep pass was tipped by a KM defender into the hands of Malik Corry. He fumbled the ball when he was hit at the five, and another Huss player picked it up and fumbled into the end zone where Vontray Ratliff fell on it for the touchdown. Big Charlotte Catholic transfer Lamagea McDowell ran a two-point conversion around end to give Huss a 21-14 halftime advantage.

Although KM threatened to score several times in the second half, they could only manage a safety when the Huss punter’s knee hit the ground as he was trying to gather a low snap from cen-

JVs hold off Huskies to remain unbeaten

Kings Mountain’s JV football team kept its unbeaten record intact Thursday night at John Gamble Stadium, but it wasn’t easy.

For the second straight week the Mountaineers met a Gaston County opponent primed to knock them off.

A week earlier they struggled to a 6-0 win at North Gaston and Thursday their 26-12 victory over Hunter Huss at Gamble Stadium was much closer than the score indicated.

Huss never led but battled back on several occasions and appeared to have come close to taking the lead in the fourth quarter when an apparent 75 yard touchdown run brought them to within 19-18. A two-point conversion could have given them the lead had the TD held up. But it was brought back on a personal foul penalty.

The teams battled to a scoreless deadlock after the first period but the Mountaineers finally broke in front 7-0 on a 13-yard touchdown pass from Cole Irby to Deandre Hoyle and a PAT by Aidan Harris.

Huss returned the ensuing kickoff to the KM eight and scored on a roll round left end by their QB. KM’s defense blocked the extra point attempt.

That score stood until halftime but KM took the third quarter kickoff 62 yards in six plays to go up 13-6 on a 46-yard touchdown pass from Irby to JJ Thurman.

A peculiar play led to another Huss score with 7:53

KM’s AJ Richardson intercepted a Huss pass but had the ball stripped from him and Huss ended up with a first and ten at the KM 32. Four plays later the Huskies scored on a 22-yard pass to cut the margin to 19-12.

Their defense held and their offense was moving again but KM’s Kameron Lipscomb intercepted a pass at the 25 yard line and returned it to the Huss 47.

Huss held the KM offense to three and out, and then returned the punt 75 yards for what everyone thought was a TD. But a flag had been thrown as the run began

for a block in the back and personal foul. KM accepted the personal foul penalty to put the Huskies back to their own 19 yard line.

With two minutes remaining in the game, Huss still had a shot but KM’s Chase Ellis intercepted a pass and returned it 30 yards for a touchdown to secure the win.

Ellis’s play was one of many big ones by the KM D throughout the game. Others playing well included Deandre Hoyle, Mark Thomasson, Jake Lloyd, Lipscomb, Richardson and Hunter Leigh.

Kings Mountain’s Kobe Paysour picks up a key first down for the Mountaineers in Friday’s game at Huss.

HUSKIES From Page 1B Kings Mountain rallied and drove 80 yards in six plays with Ricaylen Mack scoring from two yards out and Alex Browning kicking the PAT to trim the Huss lead to 13-7.

After forcing a Huss punt, the Mountaineers took over on their own 48. Seven plays later Reid hit Orlando Odums with an 18-yard TD pass and Browning’s kick put the Mountaineers on top 14-13. Mountaineer fans sensed a big comeback, but the unusual play on the last play of the half put Huss back in command.

The Mountaineers were in scoring position three times after that, but failed to score. KM drove for a first

and goal at the Huss 12 and faced fourth and four at the six, but a pass to Davidson was broken up in the end zone. Huss couldn’t get anything going, leading to the safety and the final points of the night.

KM drove to the Huss 12 late in the third quarter, but a bad snap from center on the final play of the quarter sailed over Reid’s head for a 19-yard loss. On the first play on the other side of the field, Reid threw a lateral to Davidson, who threw to Paysour in the end zone but he was knocked to the ground by one Huss defender while the other intercepted the pass.

Moments later, Zach Crawford recovered a fumble to give the Mountaineers a first and goal at the Huss seven. Facing third and six,

Reid went back to pass but was sacked for a 12-yard loss and Huss held on for the win.

“The play in the end zone hurt us, and the inadvertent whistle hurt us,” Coach Lloyd said referring to a KM kickoff after its first TD was fumbled by Huss inside the 30 yard line. The official closest to the play blew his whistle when the Huss player signaled for the fair catch, but it hit off his chest and the Mountaineers recovered. Because of the early whistle, the Mountaineers had to re-kick instead of having the ball in Huss territory.

“We left some points out there,” Lloyd said. We’ll just have to try to improve.

If we win these last three games we’re still going to be in good shape.”

Frye Big South Player of Year Kings Mountain High tennis players Madelynn Frye and Sarah Bell were named to the All-Big South tennis team after advancing to the singles championship against each other in last week’s Big South tournament.

Frye, who won the match to finish undefeated for the season, was selected BSC Player of the Year.

The KM players were seeded 1-2 for the tourney.

They now advance to the state tournament.

Both players received first round byes. Frye dominated her second round opponent 10-0 and won over the third round opponent Bell also dominated her first round opponent 10-0 and defeated her second round opponent 7-6 (7-3), 6-1.

Bell put up a great match against Frye for the championship, but was defeated 6-1, 6-0.

This was the fourth consecutive conference championship for Frye, who teamed with Natalie Lutz to win the previous three doubles championships.

The doubles entries from KM weren’t as fortunate as Lillian Lutz and Hannah McCall were defeated by the Crest team.

Olivia Moss and Railey Bolt won their first round match but lost in the second round.

KM beats Crest, falls to Forestview Kings Mountain High’s tennis team ended its season last week with a loss to Big South champion Forestview and a win over Crest.

Against Forestview, the undefeated Lady Jaguars dominated 8-1.

“Having three freshmen in our starting lineup against a very strong and exceptional team proved too strong for us to overcome,” said Coach Rick Henderson. “Forestview had four seniors in their lineup against three freshmen and that proved to be the dominance that Forestview had. This is the first time Forestview has beaten us in over four years.”

The lone victory for KM was earned by #1 seed Madelynn Frye, who dominated Elsa Schuls 6-1, 6-0.

In other matches, Sarah Bell fell to Maggie Lu 6-2, 6-2, Lillian Lutz lost to Sophie Jurs 6-0, 6-0, Olivia Moss lost to Charlotte Harwell 6-4, 6-3, Hannah McCall lost to Ellie Riley 6-0, 6-0 and Railey Bolt lost to Caroline Cronland 6-1, 6-0.

In doubles Frye and Bell lost to Schuls and Lu 8-2, Lutz and McCall fell to Jurs and Harwell 8-3 and Moss and Bolt lost to Riley and Cronland 8-1.

Thursday, the Lady

Mountaineers ended their regular season with a 5-4 victory over Crest.

“I was wanting to defeat the Lady Chargers if at all possible, but I knew it would be a close match,” Henderson said. “Finishing third in the conference with a 4-2 record with three freshmen in our lineup exceeded my expectations.”

As expected, both Frye and Bell pulled off victories in their singles matches, as did #6 seed Railey Bolt. Lillian Lutz, Olivia Moss and Hannah McCall came up short.

“When there’s a lot on the line and your opponent is about as equal as you, it’s all about each point that your player can win,” Henderson said. “We had our chances numerous time to win the match just in singles alone, but our young freshmen couldn’t close the match out.

At one point Lutz had match point and ended up losing the point and eventually lost the set and was forced to play a third set tie breaker and lost that as well. In tight matches like this it’s all about momentum. It was no different with Hannah McCall. She had her chances as well but just couldn’t capitalize on her opponent’s mistakes. Split-

ting singles 3-3 was tough to swallow knowing we should have won two matches that split sets in the third and five seeds. Fortunately, our top two doubles teams pulled the match out and cruised to victory.

“Beating Crest at their home courts was bitter sweet,” he added. “Finishing in third place was a total surprise, knowing that we had five freshmen that came in from middle school replacing six seniors that we lost to graduation. This marks five years or more that we have beaten the Lady Chargers.”

A grant to the CTT from the Extreme Terrain Clean Trail Project partially funded CTT’s partnering support of the Friends of Crowders Mountain. Volunteers enjoyed lunch following the trailwork and were invited to attend the Friends Board meeting which followed. To learn more check out carolinathreadtrail.org or friendsofcrowders.com or facebook.com/FriendsOfCrowdersMtn. Come join in the fun of giving back to our great outdoors!

CCC Yeti runners compete in the heat Despite 90-degree heat, the Cleveland Community College Yeti Cross Country men’s team battled for a first-place finish among junior college teams at the Queen City Invitational at McAlpine Creek Park in Charlotte. Hosted by Queens University, the meet shaped up as a head-to-head matchup between CCC and the men’s team from Region X member Patrick Henry Community College (Martinsville, VA).

In the junior college category, Yeti runner Isaiah Washington placed first with an excellent time of 29:30. Also in that category, Caleb Barnes finished third overall and Georgia Moss placed second among the female runners.

The meet brought teams from more than 40 different colleges, including Gardner-Webb University, Western Carolina University, Belmont-Abbey College, Lenoir-Rhyne University and Limestone College. The race featured more than 900 runners from NCAA Divsion I, II and III teams, NAIA teams and NJCAA teams.

As runners from CCC and Patrick Henry Community

College crossed the finish line, spectators were not sure which team would capture first place among junior college men’s teams. After tallying runners’ times, the judges determined that only three of Patrick Henry Community College’s five men’s runners had finished the race. With two runners classified as “DNF” (Did Not Finish), the CCC men received a team placement and effectively won the top spot between the two junior college teams. Additionally, the Yeti men’s team placed higher than two fouryear schools, Voorhees College and Morris College.

All Yeti runners completed the race. Given the high temperatures during race time, the Yeti completion rate represented quite a feat, as 25% of both the men’s and women’s fields could not complete the race. Many runners from other schools collapsed during the run and required medical attention.

The Yeti Cross Country team will return to action on October 5 at the Upstate Invitational at Milliken Research Center in Spartanburg, SC.

How Seniors Can Get Help with Credit Card and Mortgage Debt Dear Savvy Senior, My husband and I, who are both 66 years old, have fallen behind on our mortgage payments and have accumulated quite a bit of credit card debt over the past few years. Where can we get help?

Drowning in Debt Dear Drowning, Unfortunately, credit card and mortgage debt have become a growing problem for many older Americans who often face medical-related expenses on top of their mortgage and other growing costs. Here are some tips and services that can help.

Credit Card Counseling To help you get a handle on your credit card debt, a good place to turn is an accredited credit counseling agency. These are nonprofit agencies that offer free financial information and advice on how to handle financial problems.

Depending on the significance of your credit card debt, they can help you sort out your finances and set

you up in a debt management plan (DMP), which allows a counselor to negotiate with your creditors to lower your interest rates and eliminate any late fees and other penalties.

The agency will then act as a consolidator, grouping your debts together into one payment that you would make, and distributes those funds to your creditors. Typically, the first counseling session is free, but a DMP comes with monthly fees of roughly $20 to $75 a month, depending on the state.

Mortgage Counseling If you have fallen behind on your mortgage payments, or if you have already received a letter or phone call about missed payments, you should contact your lender immediately to explain your situation and see if you can work out a payment plan. Be prepared to provide your financial information, such as your monthly income and expenses.

To locate a credible agency in your area, use the National Foundation for Credit Counseling website at NFCC. org (800-388-2227), or the or the Financial Counseling Association of America FCAA.org (800-450-1794).

You can also get help from a foreclosure prevention counselor. These are HUD-approved, trained counselors that will work with you, examine your financial situation, and offer guidance on how best to avoid default or foreclosure. They can also represent you in negotiations with your lender if you need them to.

But make sure that you don’t use a debt settlement company that claims to settle all your debt or cut it in half for a fee without counseling. Most of these companies use deceptive practices and will only leave you more in debt then you already are.

To find a government-approved housing counseling agency in your area, use the National Foundation for Credit Counseling or Financial Counseling Association of America websites or phone numbers previously listed. Or, for a larger selection

of housing counseling options see the Department of Housing and Urban Development website at HUD. gov – click on “Resources” at the top of the page, then on “Foreclosure Avoidance Counseling,” or call 800569-4287.

Financial Assistance You also need to make sure you’re not missing out on any financial assistance programs. The National Council on Aging’s website (BenefitsCheckUp.org) contains a database of more than 2,500 federal, state and local programs that can help seniors with prescription drug costs, health care, food, utilities, and other basic needs. The site will help you locate programs that you may be eligible for and will show you how to apply.

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.

New requirements for Meningococcal Vaccine High school seniors to have meningococcal vaccine booster beginning 2020 school year

This 1803 Howser House is only open to the pubic two times each year.

Photo by Kings Mountain National Military Park

Howser House open Nov. 2 The Brigade of Friends will host an Open House of the historic Henry Howser House on Saturday, November 2. This 1803 stone dwelling is in a remote area of the park and is open to the pubic only two times each year. The exact hours will be announced soon.

The Howser House is located just off Rock House

Road. Rock House Road turns off Battleground Drive near the Blacksburg entrance to the park.

The house is not handicap accessible and parking is limited. Visitors may reach the house from Rock House Road, off SC 216 (Battleground Road). Parking is located near the entrance to the house. A shuttle service

from the parking area will be provided to the house.

Good walking shoes are recommended.

In the event of inclement weather, the house will not be opened. For more information about this event call 864-936-7921 or visit www. nps.gov. The event is free and open to the public.

For the first time, high school seniors will be required to show proof of a meningococcal vaccine booster to attend 12th grade starting August 1, 2020. Therefore, all current high school juniors will need a meningococcal vaccine booster prior to the start of their senior year next school year.

These new requirements come as part of the new immunization rules that went into effect in July 2015 that required individuals entering the seventh grade or by 12 years of age, whichever comes first, on or after July 1, 2015 to receive a first dose of the meningococcal vaccine.

A booster dose is required for individuals entering the 12th grade or by 17 years of age, whichever comes first. Individuals who entered seventh grade before July 1, 2015 are not required to receive the first dose. The booster dose does not apply to individuals

who entered the 12th grade before August 1, 2020. If the first dose is administered on or after the 16th birthday, a booster dose is not required.

Individuals born before January 1, 2003 are not required to receive meningococcal conjugate vaccine.

The Cleveland County Public Health Center offers the meningococcal vaccine and booster Monday – Friday from 8:00 am – 5:00 pm with no appointment necessary.

Public health center staff encourage parents of students who will be entering the 12th grade next school year to begin making arrangements for their kids’ meningococcal vaccine booster now.

Students can go ahead and receive the meningococcal vaccine booster when they are 16 years of age. Alisa Leonard, Nursing Director, Cleveland County Public Health Center, shares, “If everyone waits until the summer before their senior year to get the meningococcal vaccine booster, it may be more difficult to get an appointment and it could put a strain on

healthcare providers to maintain an adequate supply of the vaccine.”

The meningococcal vaccine protects against meningococcal disease, a serious infection that can lead to bacterial meningitis and other serious infections. Meningococcal disease is caused by a type of bacteria. It can lead to an infection of the bloodstream or meningitis, or both, and can be life-threatening if not quickly treated. The meningococcal conjugate vaccine is very effective at protecting against strains of the bacteria.

To learn more about meningitis and the meningococcal vaccine, please visit https:// www.immunize.nc.gov/family/vaccines/meningococcal. htm. If you have questions about the requirements and whether your child is required to receive the meningococcal vaccine or booster, please contact your healthcare provider or the Cleveland County Public Health Center Immunization Clinic at 980484-5100.
