The Brevards of Crowders Mountain

By Loretta Cozart On July 19, 2018, The Brevards of Crowders Mountain Historical Society held its 2nd Annual Brevard Family Old Homeplace Roundup at Crowders Mountain State Park. To understand the significance of this gathering, you must

know the events that led to it over the span of 120 years.

For seventy-seven years, the Brevard family of Crowders Mountain owned land in Kings Mountain.

In 1975, North Carolina claimed the land by eminent domain for public use, and the Late Elder John Avery Brevard released the Bre-

vard family land to the state.

The property now the comprises the campground of Crowders Mountain State Park.

According to the Park’s website, “Jacob and Rebecca Brevard were born as See BREVARDS, Page 2A

Barry Lockman transforms local clay into objects of beauty

By Alan Hodge alan.bannernews@gmail.com

Barry Lockman is a magician of sorts, but instead of pulling a rabbit out of a hat, he pulls good old Piedmont North Carolina clay out of the earth and turns

it into incredibly beautiful pieces of pottery.

Lockman, 77, lives near Dallas in a tidy cottage, but it’s in his pottery shop outbuildings that his soul resides.

“I make pottery because it’s my passion,” he says.

“It’s almost an addiction.”

Lockman’s love of pottery goes back to the 1970s.

“I retired from a variety of government jobs and pretty much make pottery full time,” he said.

According to Lockman, he gets his raw clay straight from Mother Earth.

“I dig it out of an embankment near Iron Station,” he said. “It’s near where I was born.”

Besides the clay, he sources other pottery making materials from a variety of local spots. That includes white kaolin from Kings Mt., as well as blue stones from road construction projects and even minerals See LOCKMAN, Page 7A

City Council approves Maples’ ordinance request

By Loretta Cozart On Tuesday, July 31st, City Council considered a request from Todd and Sylvia Maples to modify a family subdivision located at 1336 Phifer Road in Kings Mountain, requesting that they be allowed to have a road into the property longer than the allowed 500

feet allowed by the City.

In the Public Hearing, Planning Director Stuart Gilbert reported that a family easement cannot exceed 500 feet, according to Section 2.8 special Provisions for Family Subdivision Subsection (3). The proposed road would be 50 feet wide and is requested to share the property with family mem-

bers. They may decide to add a few more lots in the future. A public hearing notice was sent out on June 28, 2018.

Speaking for the request was Todd Maples. “We need the easement to divide the parcels and distribute See COUNCIL, Page 7A

RIVERHILL MONUMENT CO.

Founder and Executive Director, Amiee Cox- King of Cypress Adventures Inc, a Nonprofit Organization and Staff from Hartsville, South Carolina, brought a group of youth on a Camping Trip to Crowders Mountain State Park.

BREVARDS From Page 1A slaves but worked hard to become some of the early African-American/Cherokee Indian landowners in Gaston County. Together, Mr. and Mrs. Brevard owned 24 3/4 acres of farmland where they raised 14 children.

“Perhaps closer to the heart are stories of the families that once farmed this land. While they were paid for the land that founded Crowders Mountain State Park, all were not eager to sell land their families had owned and tended to since the 1800’s. Brevard, Brooks, Ormand and Short are among the family names with heritage tied to the land we all appreciate and protect today.”

Johnsie Brevard Cleveland is Overseer, CEO and Founder of a Project of (N2NF) Neighbor 2 Neighbor Foundation, Inc., a non-profit 501(c)3 serving the educational, social, and economically underserved.

She is the daughter of Jacob “Jake” Brevard and Mrs. Rebecca “Becky” Gordon Brevard’s son, the late Elder John Avery Brevard and the late Evangelist Odessa Rainey Brevard.

In 2014, Overseer Johnsie Brevard Cleveland was compelled by Divine Order to start a project called The Brevards of Crowders Mountain Historical Society. Crowders Mountain State Park Ranger Kelly Cooke eagerly volunteered to work on this project.

On August 19, 2016 a display called “History Beneath the Leaves” was unveiled at the State Park at the beginning of the trail outside the Visitor’s Cen-

Mr. John Avery Brevard, The Brevards of Crowders Mountain Historical Society Project Coordinator. ter. On it, the lifestyles of those people who lived on Crowders Mountain was described and the Brevard family is highlighted.

According to NCPedia. com, “Alexander Brevard moved his family to Lincoln County and settled on Leeper’s Creek, where he built Mt. Tirza Forge.” With him he brought slaves.

The Brevard Station Museum website describes the scope of the enterprise in the late 1700’s, “According to Rudolph Young, a Stanley historian, as reported in the Gaston Gazette on 26 February 1996, ‘When these furnaces were founded in the 1790’s, skilled German iron masters were recruited who already were skilled in the iron industry, this being a means of obtaining cheaper skilled labor.”

“A plantation of as many as 60 slaves, including clothes weavers and wooden shoemakers was required to

work an iron furnace.’”

After the Civil War, former slaves Jacob (Jake) and Rebecca Brevard made their way to Crowders Mountain, where Jake purchased land in 1898. He died in 1913.

His widow, Rebecca sold china she had collected to purchase an additional 24 acres in 1917.

For 77 years, the descendants of Jake and Rebecca Brevard took care of their land, passing it from one generation to the next. And in 1975, the care of that land was passed to the State of North Carolina for everyone to enjoy.

The next time you visit Crowders Mountain State Park, remember the Brevards. Be aware of their love for this place they now share with you. Due to their stewardship, this place will continue to nurture love and friendship for generations to come.

Hospice awarded the SHP Best Superior Performer Award Shelby, NC – Strategic Healthcare Programs (SHP) recently awarded Hospice Cleveland County the SHPBest Superior Performer award for achieving an overall score that ranked in the top 20% in the SHP national CAHPS (Consumer Assessment for Healthcare Research and Quality) Hospice benchmark and scoring above the SHP national average for each CAHPS Hospice quality measure during the 2017 calendar year.

“We are proud to have hard-working, quality conscious organizations like yours as part of the SHP family. The dedication,

compassion and care that you show to your patients is reflected in the feedback that has been provided by their caregivers via the CAHPS Hospice survey” said SHP President Rob Paulsson.

SHP is a leader in performance improvement for post-acute care providers.

Their healthcare data analytics and benchmarking provide real-time, actionable performance metrics that drive daily decisions.

Since 1996, SHP has helped organizations nationwide, from small rural entities to public companies, raise the bar for healthcare perfor-

mance.

Two decades ago they pioneered real-time performance measurement in healthcare at a time when there was little recognition of the power and value that data and benchmarking could bring. Today, their customers use their real-time data paired with insights and benchmarking to make better decisions and focus their training and improvement efforts.

They now serve almost 6,000 healthcare providers in many venues of postacute care by delivering the information and insights they need to better manage

clinical, operational and financial performance, stay compliant, and follow best practices every day.

Hospice Cleveland County exists to provide high quality skilled compassionate care and support for individuals with a life-limiting illness, their families, and the community, regardless of their ability to pay. As an organization that values people, we will strive to live this mission by believing in the following: human dignity, compassion, dedication, integrity, stewardship, leadership, service and excellence.

Eagle takes part in National Youth Leadership forum This summer, Sarah Glen Eagle of Kings Mountain, joined outstanding elementary school students from across the nation to take part in a unique academic development experience, the National Youth Leadership Forum (NYLF): Pathways to STEM, at Wake Forest University.

Sarah Glen was nominated to attend the forum by her fourth grade teacher at North Elementary. In addition to participating in Elementary Battle of the Books and her school’s chorus and robotics team, Sarah Glen is also passionate about reading and swimming.

Officer for Envision. “These students, who have already proven themselves academically, are challenged to work on real-world, student-created projects to bring their studies and career interests to life.”

Since 1985, Envision programs have served more than 800,000 students in more than 145 countries, with programs designed to help students develop the leadership, scholarship and career skills needed to succeed in today’s competitive college and career landscape.

■ MEDITATION

The Rewards of Patience need patience and I need it right now!” I’ve been there myself more times than I would like to admit. So often when we pray to God for something or for some concern, we want an immediate response…right now! We don’t want to wait. We want it now!

In the Old Testament, Abraham had to learn patience.

In Hebrews 6:14 & 15 we read: “I, the Lord, will bless you with many descendants! Then after Abraham had been very patient, he was given what God had promised.”

At age 75, he was given God’s promise of a son. Ten years later, he still did not have a son. After twenty years—still no son! At last, when he was 100 years old—a quarter of a century after

Life is filled with many socalled virtues.

Most of my life I have heard the phrase “Patience is a virtue.” Pastor Ron Caulder Now, what Eastside Baptist Church KM Ministerial is a virtue? Association, President A virtue is a trait or quality deemed to be morally excellent and therefore to be valued.

Well, while it may be valued, most of us have a difficult time being patient. Too many people experience extreme patient deficiency. This is sometimes seen even in our prayer lives “Lord, I

the Lord had made the promise, baby boy Isaac was born!

Surely there must have had times of doubt during that lengthy wait, however, Abraham continued to trust and watch for God to bring about what He had promised.

There are other examples of patience in the Scriptures. As a young man, Jacob met the girl of his dreams, but he had to work many years before marrying her.

At 17, Joseph had a God-given vision of blessing but languished more than a decade of slavery and prison before receiving the reward.

David was anointed Israel’s King as a teen but spent the next 14 plus years running for his life before taking the throne.

Not only was this true with some of our most-noted biblical characters, it is also true of people throughout the ages. The purposes of God often develop slowly because His grand designs are never hurried.

The great New England preacher Phillip Brooks often suffered moments of frustration and irritability. One day a friend saw him feverishly pacing the floor like a caged lion. “What’s the trouble, Mr. Brooks?” he asked. “The trouble is that I’m in a hurry, but God isn’t!” Haven’t we felt this way many times?

Some of the greatest missionaries of history devotedly spread the seed of God’s Word and yet had to wait long periods before seeing the fruit of their efforts.

William Cary labored 7 years before seeing the first convert to Christ. Adoniram Judson labored for 14 years before one convert was received into the Christian church.

So, what can we learn from these stories of patience?

Rewards come as we are patient and learn to wait on the Lord and His timing instead of our own. Short-cuts never lead to where the Lord wants us to be.

The long road, however, is filled with faithful servants.

“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles: they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)

The women of St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church (Sisters in Christ) wish to thank the community of Kings Mountain for their overwhelming support of a project to raise supplies for local troops who are deployed overseas. What began as a small seed finally came to fruition on July 31, when Judy Wilson, along with several volunteers from St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church and the community, delivered the packages to the Post Office here in Kings Mountain.

The project was very comprehensive and required many hours of dedicated service from both church members and individual volunteers from the community. In addition to the “people-hours” needed, the project required significant donations of products and money to ship the packages overseas. While many would think the packages could be sent over by the military, they are not usually shipped that way. The packages had to be boxed, forms filled out, and postage payed for each package shipped. Each box costs over 18.00 to ship, totaling near $2000.00 for the entire project.

Again, the Sisters in Christ of St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church, and those who helped with this project, wish to thank all those who donated either time, money, or prayers. We hope this project blesses the troops from OUR community who are deployed, and we wish them a safe and quick return to us. Should you be interested in learning

more about this project, or joining the Sisters in Christ group, please contact St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church a 201 N. Piedmont Ave. here in Kings Mountain, or call (704)739-7466. The

group meets monthly for lunch at a local restaurant, has prayer and devotion, and is an opportunity to fellowship with other women from our community Submitted by Robert Wilson

The kiln is made of bricks, about the size of a large refrigerator, and is fueled with diesel oil and wood.

“The kiln can reach temperatures of up to 2,400F,” says Lockman. “I load from 225 to 350 pieces and fire twice a year.”

To glaze his works, Lockman uses crushed minerals and salt- lots of salt- in a style similar to what our area’s first pioneers employed. The glaze has hints of tans, browns, blues, and greens.

“Salt glazing goes back to Germany in the 1600s,” said Lockman.

Rabies is a fatal yet preventable disease if post exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is administered. Rabies is transmitted by the bite of an infected animal or via contamination of open wounds or mucus membranes with potentially infectious material such as saliva.

Prevention of rabies is based on protection of susceptible animals and people and appropriate management of persons and animals exposed to rabies: 1. Vaccinate pets. In accordance with NC State Law, all dogs, cats, and ferrets must be kept currently vaccinated against rabies and must wear a rabies tag.

Cats are the most commonly identified domestic animal with rabies.

2. Control measures for pets exposed to rabies: If pets are exposed to rabies they should receive a booster dose of rabies vaccine if they are currently vaccinated at the time of exposure. If pets are not currently vaccinated against

rabies when exposed, the animals will be euthanized or quarantined for six months in accordance with state law.

3. Control measures for persons exposed to rabies: Seek medical guidance from your healthcare provider or the local health department if you believe you have been exposed to rabies.

4. Limit stray and feral animals. In the cities of Shelby, Kings Mountain, Boiling Springs, and Grover all dogs must be kept on a leash. Persons should not approach stray or feral dogs or cats.

Feral cat colonies should be intensively monitored and their location reported to Cleveland County Animal Control.

5. Leave wildlife alone.

Raccoons and other wildlife serve as the reservoir for rabies in North Carolina.

Rabies occurs throughout North Carolina. Anyone that sees an animal demonstrating unusual behavior needs to call the Cleveland County Animal Control Department at 704-481-9884.

Prior to the summer, during the school year, teens attended a Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) conference in Raleigh, NC, where they toured Google Fiber, the North Carolina Museum of Science and NC State University.

Middle school BGCCC students are also encouraged to start thinking about the future. Some students from those grades recently had the opportunity to visit Career & Technical Education (CTE) programs at local high schools to get a glimpse of potential job preparation classes they can take in the future.

“These activities are a part of the Boys and Girls Club’s ongoing career development program designed to help students discover their interests, set realistic career goals and create a plan for achieving those goals,” says Propst. “Combined with money management training and life skills training Da’Leion Hopper (left) and Noah at the club, it creates a potent recipe for Jenkins (right) strike a pose in front of a giant fossil during the Teen STEM student success.”

Bank of the Ozarks is now

from defending North Vietnamese Army (NVA) forces. During the next three days, McCloughan rescued soldiers from the kill zone while he continued to fight, including using a grenade to disable a rocket-propelled grenade position. He was wounded twice but refused to be evacuated. When supplies ran low, McCloughan held a blinking light in an exposed position to mark a location for a night resupply drop, remaining steadfast during enemy fire.

McCloughan was credited with saving the lives of 10 soldiers from his company during May 1315. He received two Purple Hearts for his two wounds and a Bronze Star Medal

with “V” device. He was discharged from the Army in 1970 with the rank of Specialist 5. He did not receive his Medal of Honor until July 31, 2017, from President Donald Trump.

He was inducted into the Pentagon’s Hall of Heroes Aug. 1, 2017.

After his release from the military, McCloughan returned to teaching and coaching football at South Haven High School. He also coached wrestling for 22 years and American Legion Baseball for 38 years.

He also spent 25 years as a Michigan High School Athletic Association wrestling official.

A graduate of Western Michigan University with a master-of-arts degree in

counseling and psychology, McCloughan taught psychology at South Haven until he retired in 2008. He was awarded the Wolverine Conference Distinguished Service Award for his coaching and was inducted into three Michigan halls of fame.

McCloughan, known as “Doc,” still lives in South Haven and spends part of his time as a motivational speaker. Following his time at the ALWS, McCloughan will speak at the American Legion’s 100th National Convention in Minneapolis in late August.

KM all-stars in semi-finals of World Series Kings Mountain’s 13-14 all-stars were within one win of advancing to the championship round in the Dixie Boys World Series when the Herald went to press Tuesday afternoon.

The locals were facing a re-match with Lancaster, SC. The winner will face a challenge of winning two games today to nail down the championship.

Kings Mountain opened play Saturday with a 6-0 win over Nashville, Arkansas.

KM began the first inning with lead off hitter Lane Essary walking and stealing second. Two batters later Zane Brockman drove him in with a double for a 1-0 lead.

The next inning Chris Ruffalo and Charlie Melton reached on errors and both scored on a double by Landon Jenkins. AJ Wylie’s sacrifice fly plated Jenkins and KM was up 4-0.

KM was then held scoreless until the fifth inning.

Alex Woody was hit by a pitch and Ruffalo followed with a single up the middle.

Jenkins came through with a two-run single to account for the final score.

Brockman and Melton combined for the shutout.

Brockman pitched the first five innings, striking out 11, walking none and allowing only two hits. Melton closed it out by striking out three and walking one, and allowing two hits.

KM was led in hitting

by Jenkins with two hits.

Brockman and Ruffalo also had a hit apiece.

Game two was a thriller with Lancaster taking a 5-3 win in eight innings.

Essary took the mound and held the South Carolinians to one run through five innings. He struck out 10, walked five and allowed three hits.

Melton pitched the sixth

and seventh inning, striking out two, walking one and allowing two hits. Devin Pressley pitched the final inning.

South Carolina went up 1-0 in the first but KM answered in the fifth when Jenkins reached on an error, stole second and scored on a two-out single by AJ Wylie.

KM added two more in the sixth for a 3-1 lead.

Boone Cartee and Zane Brockman both singled and Ruffalo’s grounder to second scored Cartee.

Melton and Jenkins walked and Brockman scored on a passed ball for a 3-1 lead.

Lancaster would tie the

game in the seventh when lead off batter Tyler Vespe reached on an infield single and Buddy Howard walked.

JP Cunningham dunked one into center to load the bases.

KM then had back-to-back errors allowing two runs to tie the game and force extra innings.

Melton struck out the last batter to end the inning. KM failed to score in the top of the eighth and with two outs Vespe connected and sent a two-run walk off home run over the centerfield fence to give South Carolina the win.

KM collected only six hits on the night. Essary and

Cartee had two apiece while Brockman and Wylie added one each.

KM got back to its winning ways Monday with a 12-5 win over Louisiana.

Boone Cartee pitched the first four innings allowing five runs on four hits while striking out six. Alex Woody pitched two innings, striking out four while walking two and allowing no runs. Devin Pressley closed it out with one inning pitched. He struck out two and allowed one hit.

Lane Essary and Cole Irby led the offense, both collecting four hits. Chris Ruffalo added three. Cartee, Brockman, Woody and Pressley had two hits each and Wylie one. In all KM collected 20 hits.

KM’s second game of the day came against the Texas state champion, with KM winning 2-0.

Zane Brockman again took the mound and was

in complete control. He pitched 4 2/3 innings, allowing only four hits while striking out four and only allowing one runner to reach second base.

Devin Pressley pitched the last 2 1/3 innings. He faced only eight batters and struck out three. He allowed only one hit.

Pressley also made the defensive play of the game in the fourth inning. With one out and a runner on first, the Texas cleanup batter hit a missile to the right field fence. Presley turned and ran it down with a remarkable over the shoulder catch at the wall, then doubled up the runner at first to end the inning.

Brockman led the KM hitting with two hits and Essary, Cartee, Ruffalo, Jenkins, Melton and Wylie had one each.

Mountaineers play Berry at East Rutherford tonight, face Newton-Conover in CC Jamboree Friday in Shelby Kings Mountain High’s football teams officially opened practice last week with 80 prospects.

The Mountaineers were able to hit for the first time Saturday morning and will get to hit somebody else for the first time Wednesday in a scrimmage at East Rutherford High School. Friday, the Mountaineers will compete in the annual Cleveland County Jamboree at Shelby High.

The Mountaineers op-

The hit of the day.

ponent at East Rutherford will be 4A Berry Academy of Charlotte at 7 p.m. The event gets underway at 5 p.m. with Madison taking on Patton, followed at 6 with North Henderson facing St. Stephens. The final game at 8 p.m. will have East Rutherford taking on Fred T. Foard.

Kings Mountain will face Newton-Conover in the 6 p.m. opening game at Shelby Friday.

Except for the disap-

pointment of losing a pair of 6-4 receivers to injuries, Coach Lloyd has been pleased with the way practice has gone. John Harmon Melton, who was also slated to be the backup quarterback, is lost for the season with a broken wrist. Eli Paysour is out for six weeks but should be back for the stretch run of the Big South Conference race.

“Practice has gone very well,” Lloyd said. “Our numbers aren’t quite as big as they have been in the past but we have a good bit of experience back.

“We have a lot of starters back on offense and the most returning skill players we’ve had since I’ve been here. We’re trying to install as much as we can.”

Lloyd plans to use the scrimmages to get different groups playing time.

“Some positions are still up for grabs,” he said, “and we need to work in another running back. We’ll be trying to work on receivers to replace Melton and Paysour.”

Last year’s leading rusher, Ricyalen Mack, returns for his junior year and senior Kaylon Wade returns at quarterback. Other key

JV offensive coordinator Brent Bagwell watches as quarterback Blake Emory fires a pass in Saturday practice session.

The offensive line opens a big hole for a Mountaineer running back in Saturday’s first hitting scrimmage. returners on offense include receivers Kobe Paysour, Christopher Brittain and Holden Turner and linemen James Parsons and Xavier Brown.

The Mountaineers will have to fill some holes on defense after losing several starters on the line and linebackers but they have talented athletes in both areas.

Their secondary should also be strong with a lot of starters returning.

Solo Art Exhibition features Gaston College alumnus Carl Childs are separated by the energy and color.

The exhibition features an entire wall of Pyrography, images burned into leather. “These works are created to be touched by everyone,” said Childs. “That includes the blind and visually impaired, who deserve to always be included in art shows.” On the wall are English and Hebrew characters burned into leather or hammered in.

“The ‘Love One Another’ exhibition makes everyone look good by working together for a major cause,” said Childs. “Teamwork makes the dream work! This exhibition is going to bring new art students to Gaston College. I am pushing to have Northwest School of the Arts be a feeder school for Gaston College. Also, the Gaston College Art Club will be getting 30 percent of any sales from the Beam Gallery showing.

“As a professional artist and a Gaston College alumnus, I welcome this as an opportunity to help create a premier art program that eclipses many schools.

The College’s Art Program should always strive to be strengthened and seek to be one of the top programs in North Carolina. I want to help my alma mater be the very best. When there are no art shows, zero money is raised for Art Club events and field trips. When I was a student, we did an overnight trip to Asheville and went to several galleries and museums.

Enhancing appreciation and awareness of art in the community is one of Childs’ goals. He has been teaching art to children, families and seniors for close to a decade, and has participated in many community events and special projects.

“I felt strongly that the Summer Artist Spotlight Series in Beam Gallery should make room for a new voice,” said Jason Story, Art Instructor. “Carl Childs is that new voice. The idea was simply to honor an alumnus who had passed on his gift to others in this community.

Carl is very considerate and passionate about the creative arts…and Beam Gallery is a perfect platform for him to showcase his new work.”

The title piece in the exhibition is “Love One Another,” a 16” x 14” watercolor and oil painting.

Childs said the title is “a command, not a recommendation.” He went on to say, “I was inspired to create this work to show that true harmony at work, school and community should be like this image. Positive energy, honor, respect and encouragement should always flow each time we talk with one another.”

An acrylic painting, “Qi,” is also among those included in the exhibition. Qi, pronounced “chee,” is the vital energy in the body that animates us, and it is very important in Chinese medicine and Chinese martial arts. In the painting, dragons

Retirement Planning Tips for Single Women Dear Savvy Senior, What retirement planning tips can you recommend to single women? I’m 54 and divorced with a teenage daughter and very little saved for retirement.

Financially Behind Dear Behind, It’s an unfortunate reality, but most single women – whether they’re divorced, widowed or never married – face much greater financial challenges in retirement than men. Why? Because women earn less money – about 80 cents for every dollar that men make, on average, and they have shorter working careers than men due to raising children and/or caring for aging parents. And less money earned usually translates into less money saved and a lower Social Security benefit when you retire.

In addition, women live an average of five years longer than men, which requires their retirement income to stretch farther for living expenses and healthcare costs. And, according to some studies, women tend to be less knowledgeable and more intimidated about financial issues than men, which means they don’t

always handle their money as well as they should.

Because of these issues, it’s very important that women educate themselves on financial matters and learn how to save more effectively. Listed below are some tips and resources that may help you.

Start Saving If your employer offers a retirement plan, such as a 401K, you should contribute enough to at least capitalize on a company match, if available. And if you can swing it, contribute even more. By law, you can save as much as $18,500 in a 401(k) in 2018, or $24,500 to those 50 and older, due to the catch-up rule.

If you don’t have a workplace plan, consider opening a Traditional or Roth IRA. Both are powerful tax-advantaged retirement savings accounts that let you contribute up to $5,500 annually, or $6,500 when you’re over 50. And if you’re self-employed, consider a SEP-IRA, SIMPLE-IRA and/or a solo 401(k), all of which can help reduce your taxable income while putting money away for retirement.

Also, if you have a high-deductible health insurance policy, you should consider opening a health savings account (see HSAsearch.com). This is an excellent tool that can be used to sock away funds pre-tax and use them before or after retirement to pay for medical expenses.

Find Your Number It’s also important to get a handle on how much you need to save for a comfortable retirement. You can do this through a number of free online calculators like ChooseToSave.org or FinancialMentor. com/calculator.

Pay Off Debt If you have debt, you need to get it under control. If you need some help with this, consider a nonprofit credit-counseling agency that provides free or low cost advice and solutions, and can help you set up a debt management plan. To locate an agency, use the National Foundation for Credit Counseling website at NFCC.org or call 800-388-2227.

Find Help To help you educate yourself on financial matters like retirement planning, saving

and investing, health care, annuities and more, a top resource is the Women’s Institute for a Secure Retirement at WiserWomen.org.

And to help you get up to speed on Social Security, visit SSA.gov/people/women.

This web page, dedicated to women, provides helpful publications like “What Every Women Should Know,” along with links to benefit calculators and your personal Social Security account to help you figure out your future earnings at different retirement ages.

You should also consider getting a financial assessment with a fee-only financial advisor. Costs for these services will vary from around $150 to $300 per hour, but this can be very beneficial to help you set-up a retirement plan you can follow. See NAPFA.org or GarrettPlanningNetwork.com to locate an advisor in your area.

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.

I want to go straight to shooting small groups at 50 yards. Right now, however, I couldn’t hit an elephant at that distance. And then there are my weak muscles – the ones I need to hold the bow steady and the ones I need to draw it back with. I guess what I’m saying is……. if you don’t use it, you lose it. I think that phrase is one of the first ones that I ever remember someone saying. It was always used to cause me to look at whether I was appropriating my God-given gifts and talents, or whether I was allowing spiritual atrophy to set in. (If I didn’t use them, I would lose them.) I have never forgotten that warning and have applied its truth to just about every area of my life, and it has never caused me to doubt its value.

In the physical things in life, I have found I lose it quicker. This means I can’t allow as much time to pass as I perhaps once did. If it involves muscles, the older I get, the more likely it will be that I will lose it on a faster scale. In the spiritual world, it is somewhat different. While we do lose those things which we do not use, we can be assured that all of what we have come to know about God goes into a bank for future withdrawal. These truths are not stagnating but are earning interest as we continue to live our daily lives. Then, just when we need it most, the Holy Spirit reminds us of one of the deposits we made, perhaps years ago, just for this particular purpose, and tells us now is the time to apply it.

The Apostle Paul said, “Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.” gary@outdoortruths.org ~ www.outdoortruths.org

Police Invites All to 2nd National Night Out Bessemer City’s Police Department invites you to our 2nd Annual National Night Out (NNO) Tuesday, August 7th in downtown Bessemer City. National Night Out (NNO) is an event designed to foster authentic community partnerships and sustained city-wide communication between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Bessemer City area youth in attendance will partner with a police officer to com-

plete a state of the art obstacle course.

There will be music and activity for all ages. A raffle of items donated by local organizations and businesses will be drawn throughout the evening.

Food such as hot dogs, popcorn, and variety of drinks will be served free to the public.

So plan to come out and meet our officers and enjoy an evening of community fun!

Community Concert & Cruise-In

Plan to attend our monthly 2018 Sounds of Summer Community Concert & Cruise- In Saturday, August 25th, hosted by Bessemer City’s Parks & Recreation Department. The night will feature groovy tunes from “The Tams”. The Tams have been entertaining and thrilling audiences for over 50 years! Known for such hits as “Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy”, “What Kind of Fool”, “I’ve Been Hurt” and “Untie Me #12 on the R&B Charts”, The Tams have had Several Gold Records, and 1 Platinum Single. “What Kind of Fool” hit #9 on the Billboard charts, and #6 on the R&B charts. “Hey Girl Don’t Bother Me” hit #1 in the UK in 1971. While “Be Young, Be Foolish” only hit #26 on the Top 40, the single sold over 1,000,000 copies, sending it to Platinum status. In 1986, “Ain’t Nothin Like Shaggin’ “ hit #6 in UK Billboard charts, before being banned due to the UK’s definition of “shag”.

Though their style of music has historically been referred to as Beach Music which they have had many Beach

Music hits, it can be also classified as a mixture of Smooth Soul, and R&B. Their show is fun, fresh and exciting and appeals to audiences of all ages and musical tastes.

So don’t forget to join us at 6:00 PM in downtown Centennial Park (114 W. Virginia Avenue) for good music, classic cars, and family fun! Visit us at http://bessemercity.com/explore/ 2018soundsofsummer/ or facebook. com/BessemerCity for additional 2018 Sounds of Summer Concert & CruiseIn Series information.

KMLT season opens with ‘Blithe Spirit’ Kings Mountain Little Theatre, corporate sponsor Mountain Holiday and Director Jim Champion announce the cast for “Blithe Spirit” which opens the KMLT 2018-19 season the first two weekends in October.

The cast includes: Edith, the maid – Denise McCoy; Ruth, Charles’ current wife – Sara Corbin; Charles – husband to Ruth and, before her passing, to Elvira – Robert Owens; Dr. Bradman – Scott Carpenter; Mrs. Bradman – Linda Sharp;

Madame Arcati – a medium, Wendy Walega; and Elvira, Charles’ late wife – Erica Carpenter.

The smash comedy hit of the London and Broadway stages, this much-revived classic from the playwright of Private Lives offers up fussy, cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine, re-married but haunted (literally) by the ghost of his late first wife, the clever and insistent Elvira who is called

up by a visiting “happy medium,” one Madame Arcati.

As the (worldly and un-) personalities clash, Charles’

current wife, Ruth, is accidentally killed, “passes over,” joins Elvira, and the two “blithe spirits” haunt the hapless Charles into perpetuity.

Reviews: “Can still keep and audience in a state of tickled contentment.” - Ben Brantley, the New York Times, 2009.

“A world-class comedy” – TheaterMania.com, 2009.

Caution: Mild adult themes.

Wednesday, August 8, 2018

Tyler Osborne is 2018 A.C.E. of the year The 2018 National A.C.E. of the Year Award goes to Tyler Osborne, who is sponsored by the Exchange Club of Shelby, NC of the North Carolina 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 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 nonprofit called ‘Tyler’s Home for All’, where any homeless child will find the assistance they need to graduate from high school and “become the best they can be.”

“I honestly just know what it is like to be alone and go countless days without food and shelter, and feel as if nobody is supporting me. I do not want any child to go trough what I have for the past 17 years of my life, so I want to make a positive difference in their lives.”
