This is Brumit Restaurant Group’s 53nd franchise in North and South Carolina and their second in Cleveland County. On Wednesday, traffic to the restaurant stretched down Cleveland Avenue in both directions throughout the day and well into the evening. Families also parked their cars at the community center and walked to the restaurant. Mike Hicks, Director of Marketing for Brummit Restaurant Group commented on the grand opening, “It was an awesome day. KM Town showed Up and Showed Out. Thank you, KM Town!” The Arby’s team made the grand opening a fun experience and guests 18-and-older could spin the wheel for Arby’s swag, including T-shirts, sunglasses, and even free

National Night Out is Tuesday, August 7 from 6 – 9 p.m. at Patriots Park in downtown Kings Mountain. Come join your local law enforcement for a fun night out. “We’ll have hot dogs and soft drinks and invite folks to come on by. We’ll have a DJ, too,” said Chief Tessner. “Members of the police, fire, and rescue will also be on hand to meet the community. Rumor has it we’ll even have a visit from the Paw Patrol.” Local churches are giving away backpacks filled with school supplies, and the police will have kid’s I.D. kits on hand for parents. Officially, National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make

our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. But what kids really need to know is that it is a fun event where they can meet the people who work every day to keep them safe. Police, fire, and rescue vehicles can be scary to a child. Meeting the people who operate those vehicles helps kids understand

what the vehicles are for and why they need to be so loud. Understanding opens the door to communication and helps keep our neighborhoods safe. If you’d like to help with this year’s event by providing food, backpacks or school supplies, call Chief Tessner or Assistant Chief Lisa Proctor at (704) 734-0444.

Grover gets two grants By Loretta Cozart During a special called meeting of the Grover Town Council July 24th, the commu- BILL WILLIS nity received GROVER MAYOR two USDA Rural Development grants to purchase a service truck and make water infrastructure improvements. The USDA Community Facilities Grant

program provides affordable funding to develop essential community facilities in rural areas. “We needed to purchase a service truck for $43,100 and the grant covers 51% of that cost. So, we’ll get a loan for the difference,” said Grover Mayor Bill Willis. “Our water tower was also in much need of repair, with pumping issues resulting either in water not going into the tower, or with it running over. With the cost of water

increasing, it just made more sense to fix it. “The water infrastructure improvements cost $141,000 and the grant covers 60% of that cost. We are very excited about these two grants, because we’ll see needed improvements at a lower cost to our citizens,” Willis said. These are only the second and third grants the Town of Grover has ever received, but the improvements they bring will serve the citizens of Grover well for years to come.

Community Math Academy changes children’s lives By Loretta Cozart

Boys and Girls Club members meet Mr. Tim, owner of Bridges True Value Hardware.

The Community Math Academy finished its third successful summer program in Kings Mountain last Friday, graduating 55 students from the Kings Mountain area. Executive Director Tropzie McCluney says the

three-week summer program targets rising 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students who struggle with math and want to improve end of grade test scores. “We require our teachers to be positive with these students,” McCluney said. “Words are so powerful and can lift a child up or kill his

spirit in a single sentence. We are here to encourage and nurture.” McCluney shared that a little boy at Mt. Zion looked wide-eyed at his instructor last week and said, “Oh, I get it. It’s a puzzle!” And, with that, McCluney knew the teacher had been successful See MATH, Page 3A

In addition to the educators, volunteers participated, including high school and college students who mentor. Students are served breakfast and lunch each day during the three-week program. The students experience an additional week each summer at enrichment camps in art, robotics, science and physics in which parents also take an active role. “Through data, we know 95.2% of our participants graduate high school. We hope to track where these graduates go after graduation and what career paths they take,” McCluney said. “We know our efforts will

result in more productive citizens who will contribute exponentially to our local economy.” Cleveland County Schools does not fund the program, but the staff is approved by the Cleveland County superintendent.

OPINION

Wednesday, August 1, 2018

TODAY’S QUOTE:

Adopting the right attitude can convert a negative stress into a positive one. –Hans Selye

Tryon resolves a bold move in history On Saturday, August 11 at 10 am, the DAR and SAR commemorate LORETTA the signing COZART of the Tryon Resolves at the Tryonota Fire Department, 2577 Tryon Courthouse Road in Bessemer City. The public is invited to attend. “What are the Tryon Resolves and what do they have to do with me,” you might ask. This document, and the men who signed it, played a key role in the formation of our nation. But, let’s start at the beginning to understand why the document was written, what it stated, and who the

people were that signed it. On August 14, 1775, men gathered at the Tryon County Courthouse, which was in the home of Christian Mauney, to form “An Association” - a term meaning they had gathered for a specific purpose. They formed a “Committee on Safety for Tryon County” and under that organization wrote and signed what they called the “Tryon Association”. In it they condemned the behavior of the British for actions taken toward citizens near Boston on April 19th and 20th, 1775, proclaimed their right to defend themselves if attacked, and ultimately expressed hope for a rec-

onciliation. A century later, we would come to refer to this type of document as a “Resolve”. To better understand the area Tryon County encompassed, it is important to know that modern-day Gaston, Lincoln, Cleveland and Rutherford counties were once known collectively as Tryon County. Over time they were broken into different counties. In a two-year span of time, North Carolinians signed five “Resolves” expressing their displeasure with the British Crown to varying degrees: The Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence, adopted May 19, 1775; Char-

lottetown Resolves (also known as the Mecklenburg Resolves) adopted on May 31, 1775; the Liberty Point Resolves, also known as “The Cumberland Association”, adopted on June 20, 1775; the Tryon Resolves, adopted August 14, 1775; and the Halifax Resolves, adopted April 12, 1776. This was a time in which historians say the South remained complacent about the American Revolution. By taking these bold steps to express their displeasure and risk their lives by signing these Resolves, they were doing what they could to support the patriot cause. And, when the war came calling, they were ready

to defend themselves and their families from British tyranny. We should always remember that the “turning point of the American Revolution” began here on our doorstep. We can claim this, because one year and one week after the Battle of Kings Mountain the patriots were victorious at the Battle of Yorktown, the issue was decided, and a new nation was born. Two Hundred and Forty-three years later, only the Tryon Resolves’ original document survives in the North Carolina State Archives in Raleigh. All the other “Resolves” have been lost to history. The namesake for

the Col. The Frederick Hambright DAR Chapter was a signer of the Tryon Resolves and many of the other signers went on to fight against the British in local battles, including Ramsour’s Mill, Musgrove’s Mill, Kings Mountain, and Cowpens. Many of our DAR members descend from these brave men. Many other local DAR Chapters honor these men by taking their names, too. General Cornwallis was on his way to help Lieutenant Colonel Banastre Tarleton at Cowpens when he heard of Tarleton’s defeat. Cornwallis and his 4,000 men camped on the site of the Tryon County See TRYON Page 7A

Branson Duck boat ride – bad judgment

Looking back In 1955, the Kings Mountain Farm Center moved from their former location on S. Battleground Avenue to 126 – 128 W. Gold Street in what was known then as the Morrison Building. To commemorate their grand opening, they gave away a pig a week. The ad prominently promotes their Purina chows, and longtime residents Kings Mountain remember their checkerboard paint scheme. Children from that time also remember the chicks they sold and the smell of chicken feed as you entered the establishment.

rest of this summer. Yet, over and again tourist-type attractions have the ability to end in disaster. About 20 years ago the Duck boat named the Miss Majestic sunk to the bottom of a Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs, Arkansas, killing 13 people. In 2015 five students were killed in a Duck boat collision with a bus in Seattle. There have been two incidents in Philadelphia and one in Boston where 28-yearold Allison Warmuth was fatally run over by a Duck boat in April 2016. Vacationers have to make common sense calls. Someone has to stop and ask, “Is this ride safe?” Or consider that, “Maybe the weather conditions are not conducive to Duck riding, zip-lining, or parasailing over the ocean today.” Every day somewhere, someone will be hurt doing something trying to have fun. People will be killed driving cars and riding airplanes. This is one of the reasons we have laws and rules regarding trains, planes, and automobiles. They can be very dangerous when not used with good judgment. The Duck boat ride in Branson was another tragic lesson in serious bad judgment.

■ MEDITATION

Feelings! ences - good and bad. As I tried to get some rest this afternoon, my mind wouldn’t shut off my feelings of not feeling well. The song, “Feelings” sung by Albert Morris a few decades ago kept running through my mind so I looked it up on You Tube and listened to it and read the lyrics. It’s a pretty melody, but the lyrics were sort of lame in my estimation; just lamenting his feelings over lost love. But then trying to push the song out of my mind and seeking sleep, simply left more room in there for more thoughts about feelings. We all have them and they can effect us in

As I write this article, I must acknowledge that I have not been feeling very well today. I have a little ticklish cough, a sore James throat, just Y U K K Y Lochridge, Jr. Florida in general. Retired Pastor Hopefully Second Baptist, KM a good night’s sleep and some cough syrup will help and tomorrow will be better. But as always, if we will take the time to be observant, there is a good chance we can learn something from our daily experi-

different ways at different times. I guess it mainly just depends on how we are feeling at the moment. No doubt we have all said at one time or another to someone or heard someone say to us or another, “You hurt my feelings.” An old adage from my childhood days stated, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.” And yet, words have usually been at the center of the attack that hurt our feelings. As I thought about “feelings”, I began to sense another word coming toward home plate from out in left field. It was the word, “faith.” Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not

seen.” 1 Corinthians 13:13 says, “And now abide faith, hope, love,” Paul is stating the eternal value and quality of these three ideals.” Faith gives us hope and is a gift from a loving God. (Eph. 2:9, Jer. 29:11) A synonym for faith is trust. And indeed we can trust our loving God to give us a future and a hope because of His perfect love; all freely available to anyone who will repent of sin and trust in the death and burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ to provide his/ her redemption (Rom. 10:910) and then walk in obedience to God’s Word. (Duet. 11:27) This is solid theology. It is Biblical truth. It is the gospel (good news). And nothing changes that! Feelings are based

on emotions and whims. They come and go. One minute you may be feeling good and the next you may be feeling bad. And the reason for the shift in emotions may be physical or mental or social or any number of things. Sometimes we don’t even know what causes us to “feel” the way we do about someone or something or even ourselves. The Psalms are filled with these roller coaster rides. One minute the psalmist is sad or afraid or bitter and then usually He is reminded that His faith should be in his faithful God, and his feelings change to praise and adoration. My relationship with Christ is based on faith; on taking God at His unfailing, iner-

rant Word. He has a long track record of keeping His promises. I can trust Him and so can you. And I have found that when I do, my feelings about the situation or person(s) that have impacted me negatively begin to change. You might remember that Job’s so called friends had been rather harsh and unfairly judgmental with him and it hurt his feelings to say the least. But Job 42:10 says, “And the Lord restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friends.” I have to believe it changed his feelings too. And if God will do that for Job and countless others, He’ll do it for you and me. Selah! Think about it!

Gardner-Webb hosts Math Academy acknowledged. “It was interesting to see how everything worked and learning about the different types of jobs that involve math.” Touring the T5 Disney Data Processing Center in Kings Mountain, N.C., was also the most fascinating activity for Asunti Montgomery, an 11th-grade student from Thomas Jefferson Classical Academy. “I liked the technology and operations that are carried out by the data center,” he said. The students also heard from representatives of BB&T and Hamrick Insurance and talked with Barbara Mull, an investment advisor. They spoke with the manager at Classic Ford Car Dealership and Italian Garden owner Abdul Elkout. They played a computer game to learn about stock market operations. “The activities we did helped me realize that every time I enter a password or watch something on Netflix, there’s some serious math going on,” Jackson shared. “I had a great week and they managed to make my least favorite subject interesting.” The students who attended were Isabella Avant, Emilee Lund, Asunti Montgomery, Sean Moss, Jonathan Shauf, Nathan Spangler, Landon Standish, Robert Stockham, and Alley Summitt, all of Shelby, Macayla Jackson and Benesh Holland, both of Kings Mountain, Logan McMurry of Lawndale, Brianne Crawford of Gastonia, and Allie Pitcher of Cherryville. Located in the North Carolina foothills, Gardner-Webb University is a private, Christian, liberal arts university that prepares students to become critical thinkers, effective leaders and compassionate servants in the global community. Emphasizing a strong student-centered experience and rigorous academics, Gardner-Webb is a place where Christian conviction meets intellectual freedom. Ignite your future at Gardner-Webb.edu.

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.—In the annual Math Academy hosted by Gardner-Webb University, high school students applied mathematical functions in business and financial settings. The camp is sponsored each summer by the Stonecutter Foundation in Spindale, N.C. This year, 14 students attended the five-day event. Dr. Jim Johnson, GWU assistant professor of mathematics, is the co-creator of the Math Academy, which is in its sixth year. “I very much enjoy working with the students,” he praised. “They are interested and engaging, communicate well and are very intent on their studies.” Instructional time is scheduled in the morning, and field trips or other activities are planned in the afternoon. On Monday, participants designed surveys and collected responses from patrons in the restaurants in Boiling Springs. They analyzed the data and presented their results. By Friday, they were creating business plans and sharing them with the group. Both projects were judged and the winners received prizes. Thomas Andrews, chair of the math and physics department at Thomas Jefferson Classical Academy in Mooresboro, N.C., has served as co-director from the beginning. He said the activities expose the students to mathematical problems they don’t typically see in the standard high school classroom. He looks forward to working with the students, because they are genuinely interested in expanding their knowledge about math. “This means the typical angst math causes is not as prevalent, and students are more willing to think about challenging concepts and take chances on being wrong,” Andrews affirmed. Macayla Jackson, a 10thgrade student from Pinnacle Classical Academy in Shelby, N.C., said the academy gave her a new appreciation for mathematics. “My favorite part of the week was touring the Disney data facility,” she

District. Tyler is a remarkable young man who graduated from Kings Mountain High School in 2018 with a 4.6 GPA, despite unstable living conditions - officially being named homeless in November 2016. Tyler is determined to beat all the odds, every obstacle set in his path, and every deck stacked against him. He has intentionally set out to carve his own path in the world - one very different than that made by his family of uneducated drug addicts and alcoholics. As he looks toward the future, Tyler has already become the first member of his family to graduate from high school; and now he’s ready to tackle college! Throughout his high school career, Tyler was actively involved in his student body and the school. He was a member of the football team, the swim team, and the track CITY OF KINGS MOUNTAIN NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD TUESDAY August 14, 2018– 5:30 PM CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS CITY HALL

and field program - all the while, planning where he would sleep each night, how to complete his school work and where he was going to find his meals. Despite his circumstances, Tyler has become known as someone who leads by example and never complains. He prides himself on his work ethic and his determination for never giving up. He dreams of the day when he has his own children to support; children he can congratulate for their academic and athletic success. He never wants himself, or his own children, to be “another statistic”. Tyler has four universities selected to attend, with the final decision being dependent on the amount of financial assistance he can secure. He plans to double major in psychology and engineering or psychology and marine biology. His ultimate goal is to start a for the use of a Class A Double Wide Manufactured House for a single family residence. Property Location: Map 4-88 Block 1 Lot 69 Pin 2593952823.
