Veronét Vineyards and Winery plans to open August-September Veronét Vineyards and Winery announced that it is finalizing completion on its Estate vineyards and winery property with plans to open in late August or early September. The vineyard is located on 1549 Ike Brooks Dr., Kings Mountain.

“This announcement is a culmination of years’ worth of hard work and vision, and we cannot wait to share our stunning property with the world!” said Monique Sullivan, Founder and Managing Partner of Veronét.

“We are excited to offer not only delicious wines, but a variety of fun experiences from wine dinners to pairing classes that will provide people with opportunities to escape the day-to-day and get more in touch with all aspects of wine from grape-growing to winemaking,” Sullivan continued. “We have worked hard to create a retreat where anyone can relax, take in beautiful views, and enjoy themselves through a range of offerings that will include food, beer, and non-wine beverage options as well.”

In addition to the stunning views of Crowders Mountain and Kings Mountain Pinnacle, the first vineyard and winery to come to Kings Mountain will also offer an electric car charging station, LED lighting throughout, drought tolerant landscaping and dry-farming practices for water conservation and will eventually host walking and biking trails on the property.

The 6,300 square-foot main winery building is accented by a wall of oversized glass doors that highlight the vineyard and mountain views, and features an expansive open floor-plan tasting room, a 28-foot main bar and 20-

Monique Sullivan Founder and Managing Partner of Veronét foot secondary bar, a private tasting room with floor to ceiling wine cellaring, and a 70-foot outdoor patio. Once open, the entire property will be available for weddings and event rentals; the property rental will include the main winery, outdoor patio, and large outdoor space which overlooks the vineyards.

The vineyards, set with southern exposure and home to constant south-westerly winds, are planted on a gentle slope and accented by towering pines, Crowders Mountain, and Kings Mountain Pinnacle.

The nearly 5 acres of plantings are made up of Cabernet Franc, Viognier, and Chambourcin vines. The Sullivan family is excited to welcome their first estate harvest in the fall of 2020, and currently works to produce the healthiest vines while maintaining minimal impact on the land through a reduced use of chemicals and a variety of manual processes.

Citizens concerned about speeders

By Loretta Cozart Several West Gold Street residents addressed city council at the July 30 meeting regarding speeders in the West End Historic District. Stevie Edwards requested the city install speed bumps to slow traffic and deter speeders. “I am renovating a house and just want the neighborhood to be safe,” she said.

Robin Crisp shared that she has lived on the West Gold Street for 15 years. “It is treacherous to even walk on the sidewalk. People of all ages blow through the 4-way

stop on West Gold Street.

It is dangerous the during school year with so many parents and kids walking to West School,” she said.

She requested the city consider placing speed humps.

Heather Wilson said, “There are parking issues beside Cherokee Grill with people parking on the sidewalk. Last weekend, six cars parked there causing a big problem,” she said.

Chuck Wilson said he has lived on West Gold Street since 1992. “I can remember when children could play in their front yards. No more,” he said.

“This has been a continuing problem. With the increasing popularity of Patriots Park, the traffic See SPEEDERS, Page 8A

ness, and light and heavy manufacturing districts, to include tattoo parlors, vape shops and body piercing shops – Case No. Z-1-5-19 during a Public Hearing.

City council discussed special regulations for tattoo parlors, vape shops and body piercing establishments to not allow them to be located or operated within 700 feet of a church, synagogue, or regular place of worship; a public or pri-

vate elementary or secondary school; a public library; a park or playground with the exception of a greenway or other public trail; a licensed child-care facility; a licensed group-home facility or an entertainment business that is oriented primarily towards minors.

Wildlife Commission needs help with Barn Owl sightings and nest box placement North Carolina Wildlife Commission biologists are asking the public’s assistance to help them learn more about habitat needs and population distribution of barn owls in the Tar Heel state.

Because barn owls are nocturnal and secretive, nest boxes will help biologists learn more about where and when barn owls nest in North Carolina, as well as where they prefer to hunt.

“Our guess is that suitable hunting and nesting habitat is shifting based on changing farming practices and urbanization,” said Allison Medford, a wildlife diversity biologist with the Commission, who is spearheading the effort. “We’ll want to first visit the property to see what evidence of owls we can find and then put up a nest box either in a building or on an outdoor pole, depending on where we think the owls are already living. It can take a

Barn owls are listed as a Species of Greatest Conservation Need in the agency’s Wildlife Action Plan, a comprehensive planning tool developed by the Commission to help conserve and enhance the state’s fish and wildlife species and their habitats. They are difficult to survey using traditional methods, such as point counts and daytime

Within the last 30 years, several hurricanes have come far inland into North Carolina from the coast. Hurricane Hugo impacted Kings Mountain in 1989, traveling inland from Charleston, SC through Asheville (260 miles) and knocking down trees and powerlines in its wake. Many in Charlotte and the surrounding area went a month without power as the community recovered from the unexpected storm.

Researchers at North Carolina State University predict a normal hurricane season, but it is best to be prepared prior to a storm. According to North Carolina State’s website, the Atlantic Hurricane season should see 13 to 16 named storms forming in the Atlantic basin, which includes the entire Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea, according to Lian Xie, professor of marine, earth and atmospheric sciences at NC State.

Even so, two or three of those storms could become hurricanes (the historical average is six), with the possibility of two to three storms becoming major hurricanes.

For the Gulf of Mexico, Xie’s data indicate the likelihood of four to seven named storms forming in the region, with one to two of the storms becoming a hurricane. Historic averages for the Gulf are three named storms and one hurricane.

Xie’s methodology evaluates more than 100 years of historical data on Atlantic Ocean hurricane positions and intensity, as well as other variables, including weather patterns and sea-surface temperatures, to predict how many storms will form in each ocean basin.

Xie notes that this year, the potential for the ongoing weak El Niño to strengthen injected significant uncertainty into the forecast. Xia Sun, graduate research assistant in marine, earth and atmospheric sciences at NC State, also contributed to

“Special surveys, such as nocturnal surveys and nest box monitoring, are the most effective way we can learn about barn owl distribution and abundance in the state,” Medford said.

To participate anyone who spots a barn owl and property owners who are willing to have a nest box placed on their property, free of charge, are asked to contact Allison Medford, an agency wildlife diver-

sity biologist, who is spearheading the effort at allison. medford@ncwildlife.org or 910-975-9393. In the Piedmont, these birds are most common in Lincoln, Gaston and Cleveland Counties.

How to drive through a roundabout properly

By Loretta Cozart Reading the Kings Mountain Herald’s Facebook page last week, it became apparent that some citizens have concerns about how to properly drive through a roundabout.

Specific instructions are given on the NCDOT website for those who are unfamiliar with roundabouts or those who might want a refresher course. There are various types of roundabouts, but both being built in our area are of the single-lane type.

A roundabout is easy to travel through once you understand how it works. As

you approach it, you’ll see a yellow roundabout ahead sign, indicating you should slow down. Drivers yield to any vehicles or bicyclists already in the roundabout.

Everyone using the roundabout moves in a counterclockwise direction, and those already in it do not yield to approaching vehicles. Drivers should use turn signals when exiting and yield to pedestrians using the crosswalk at the roundabout.

Single-lane roundabout • Once inside the roundabout, you simply exit at the desired street.

You go:

• A quarter of the way around to turn right at the next street; • Halfway around to continue straight; • Three-quarters around before exiting to the right, instead of making a traditional left turn • Full circle to make a U-turn For more visual learners, there is a YouTube video available from the North Carolina Department of Transportation at https://www.youtube. com/watch?v=Yt1pvWYFCJk

■ MEDITATION

What You Did Not Ask When K i n g Solomon took the throne in Israel, he was a young man. He Pastor was selfJeff Longwell aware Penley’s Chapel enough Church to recognize his own inadequacy. When God asked him, “What shall I give you?” Solomon said, “I am a little child.” He felt the weight of the responsibility of leading God’s people and asked the Lord for wisdom. The Lord was so pleased with this request,

He told Solomon He would give him, “what you did not ask.” As I read this account recently in 1 Kings chapter three, I realized the Lord has given all of us so many things we have never asked Him for. If we were to consider all of the gifts He has provided, I believe it would change our whole outlook on life. Let’s examine three of these which everyone has been given: life, purpose, days.

If you are reading this, it’s because God has given you life. It’s a gift we tend to take for granted as long as we are in good health. Job said, “The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life”

(Job 33:4) Truly, every breath and every heartbeat are gifts from the goodness of the Lord. The psalmist exhorts us to, “know that the Lord, He is God. He has made us, and not we ourselves.” (Psalm 100:3) If we understand how precious this gift of life is, we should do everything we can to live a life of significance.

This brings us to the second gift: purpose. The Lord has given each of us a special, unique purpose. He has something for us to do which no one else can do. Most of us consider our lives to be rather ordinary, but if we only knew how many people we touch and the influence

we have, we would embrace the purpose of God for our lives.

He may call us to a humble existence, or to a more prominent position, but each is important in His plan. “ ‘I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord…”

(Jeremiah 29:11) Lastly, consider the gift of days. More specifically, each day we have is a gift to treasure and make the most of. Yesterday is gone forever and we are not promised tomorrow. Today is the only day we have. Let’s devote this day to the Lord and determine to live it with all of our heart for the glory of God!

CANNING & PRESERVING RECIPES

By Loretta Cozart

BREAD & BUTTER PICKLES 6 small onions, sliced 1 teaspoon mustard seed 3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric 1 teaspoon celery seed 1 cup white sugar 3 cups distilled white vinegar 1/3 cup coarse salt 6 cucumbers, sliced • In a large pan, combine the onions, mustard seed, turmeric and celery seed.

In a saucepan, combine the sugar, vinegar and salt. Bring to a boil. Pour the boiling mixture into the pan with the onion mixture.

• Add the cucumber slices.

Pack into sterile jars. Refrigerate for 2 weeks before eating.

PINEAPPLE PEACH JAM 8 ripe peaches, peeled and halved 1 ripe pineapple, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces 2 lemons, juiced 7 tablespoons regular pectin 4 cups white sugar • Immerse 8 to 10 halfpint jars in simmering water until sauce is ready.

Wash lids and rings in warm soapy water. Set aside.

• Combine peaches and pineapple in a large pot.

Cook and stir over medium heat until fruit juices are released, 6 to 10 minutes. Add lemon juice, stirring continuously.

Add sugar and stir. Add pectin; cook and stir until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.

• Pack jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw on rings finger-tight.

• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.

SALSA 1 red onion, chopped 1 white onion, chopped 1 yellow onion, chopped 6 lbs. fresh tomatoes, peeled and chopped 2 banana peppers, chopped 3 green bell peppers, chopped 3 (6 oz.) cans tomato paste 1/2 cup white vinegar 2 TBSP. garlic powder 1 1/2 TBSP. salt 1 TBSP. cayenne pepper 1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/4 cup white sugar 8 pint canning jars with lids and rings • Combine red onion, white onion, yellow onion, tomatoes, banana peppers, green peppers, tomato paste, white vinegar, garlic powder, salt, cayenne pepper, cumin, brown sugar, and white sugar in a large pot. Simmer until thick, about 3 hours.

• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the salsa into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.

• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 to 15 minutes.

• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool.

Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Refrigerate after opening.

APPLE BUTTER 8 apples - peeled, cored and chopped 4 cups white sugar 4 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/4 tsp. ground cloves 1/4 teaspoon salt • Fill a slow cooker with diced apples, sugar, cinnamon, cloves and salt.

Cover, and cook on high for 1 hour. Reduce heat.

Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 12 hours, or until thick and dark golden in color.

• Pack into small, freezer-safe containers leaving 3/4 inch space at the top.

Store in the freezer.

PICKLED BEETS 20 beets 3 cups white sugar 1 quart white vinegar 1 TBSP. pickling salt 1 TBSP. lemon juice 3 drops oil of cloves • Sterilize 5 (1 pint) jars with lids and rings. Keep hot.

• Place beets into a large pot and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until beets are tender enough to pierce with a fork, but not mushy. Drain and cool, reserving 2 1/2 cups of the water from the beets.

When beets are cool enough to handle, peel and trim the ends. Cut into wedges or chunks if desired and pack into hot jars.

• While the beets are cooking, combine the sugar, vinegar, pickling salt, lemon juice and clove oil in a large saucepan or pot.

Bring to a boil. Pour the hot brine over the beets in the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Wipe the rims with a clean towel and seal with lids and rings.

Set at room temperature for 24 hours, then store in the refrigerator. Wait a few days before eating to allow beets to soak up the flavor.

PICKLED OKRA 1-1/2 pounds fresh okra 3 dried red chile peppers

3 teaspoons dried dill 2 cups water 1 cup vinegar 2 tablespoons salt • Divide okra evenly between 3 sterile (1 pint) jars. Place one dried chile, and one teaspoon of dill into each jar.

• In a small saucepan, combine the water, vinegar and salt. Bring to a rolling boil. Pour over the ingredients in the jars, and seal in a hot water bath for 10 minutes. Refrigerate jars after opening.

REFRIGERATOR PICKLES 7 cups cucumbers, peeled, thinly sliced 1 teaspoon salt 2 cups white sugar 1 cup diced red onion 1 cup chopped green bell pepper 1 cup cider vinegar 1 teaspoon celery seed Mix the cucumbers and salt and let sit for one hour. Do not drain mixture and follow by adding the sugar, onions, bell pepper, cider vinegar and celery seed. Mix well, cover and refrigerate.

STRAWBERRY JAM 2 pounds fresh strawberries, hulled 4 cups white sugar 1/4 cup lemon juice •Crush strawberries in batches until you have 4 cups of mashed berries.

In a heavy saucepan, mix together the strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice.

Stir over low heat until the sugar is dissolved. Increase heat to high, and bring the mixture to a full rolling boil. Boil, stirring often, until the mixture reaches 220 degrees.

• Transfer to hot sterile jars, leaving 1/4 to 1/2 inch headspace, and seal.

Process in a water bath.

You may refrigerate without processing if the jam will be eaten right away.

PEAR HONEY 8 cups peeled, cored and chopped pears 1 cup unsweetened pineapple juice 8 cups white sugar • Place chopped pears into a large pot, and pour pineapple juice over them to prevent them from browning. Stir in sugar, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir frequently to prevent scorching. When the pears are at a full boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook until the mixture is the color and texture of honey. The longer you cook it, the thicker it gets.

Cooking time is usually 2 to 3 hours.

• Ladle into hot sterile jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Wipe rims with a clean damp cloth, and seal jars with lids and rings. Process in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes, or the amount of time recommended by your local extension for your area.

SMALL BATCH BLUEBERRY JAM 4 cups fresh blueberries 1 cup white sugar 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 1 pinch ground cinnamon (optional) Mix blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon in a saucepan; cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until thickened, about 30 minutes.

Two generations ago, canning was the means to surviving the winter for most families in our country. Each family would spend the spring and summer planting and tending crops in their gardens, only to spend the late summer and fall canninng and preserving those crops to get their families through the long winter months.

Today, canning has become a lost art to many.

But thanks to Mauney Memorial Library and the NC Cooperative Extension Program, you can learn how to preserve your own fruits and vegetables by attending a special program on Preserving Nature’s Bounty: Explore Freezing and Other Food Preservation Techniques, on Thursday, August 15, from 10 am until Noon.

Now is the time to enjoy fresh fruits and vegetables

from your garden, local farmers markets, and even at the grocery store. By preserving summer harvests, you can enjoy the fresh taste of garden beans and tomatoes all year, plus save some money, too. NC Cooperative Extension Agent and co-host of the monthly show, Cleveland County Kitchen, Nancy Abasiekong will instruct a number of ways to preserve the freshness of summer produce.

She will demonstrate how to quick-peel fruits and vegetables, and explain blanching and how it preserves the quality of frozen food. Learn about food safety, water-bath and pressure canning methods,

and which to use for each type of food. Participants will take home information on all of these methods, and more.

Seating is limited, so call the library or visit mauneylibrary.org to register today.

For more information, email terry.bivens@mauneylibrary.org or call the library at (704) 739-2371. Mauney Memorial Library is located at 100 S. Piedmont Ave., Kings Mountain, NC 28086.

Simple ways to incorporate more fruits and veggies into your diet Parents imploring their children to eat their fruits and vegetables is a nightly occurrence at many dinner tables. Reluctant youngsters may have a seemingly innate resistance to vegetables, but parents should stay the course, as the importance of making fruit and vegetables a routine part of one’s daily diet is hard to overstate.

Children might be seen as the most resistant to fruits and vegetables, but reports indicate they’re not alone. A 2017 report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that just 12 percent of adults in the United States are meeting the standards for fruit consumption as established by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, which are determined by the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. Even fewer people (9 percent) are meeting the standard for vegetables. The picture is somewhat better in Canada, where the Canadian Community Health Survey, 2017, found that 28.6 percent of Canadians age 12 and older report consuming fruits and vegetables more than five times per day. However, that figure steadily declined since 2015. That’s unfortunate, as fruits and vegetables have been linked to a host of health benefits.

Why eat fruit and vegetables?

The U.S. Department of Agriculture notes that fruits do not contain cholesterol and are naturally low in fat, sodium and calories.

In addition, fruits contain a host of essential nutrients, including potassium, dietary fiber, vitamin C, and folate, that are historically underconsumed. Similarly, studies have shown that vegetables, which also are great sources of vitamins and minerals, can help people reduce their risk for a variety of conditions, including heart disease, stroke and certain types of cancer.

How can I include

more fruits and vegetables in my diet?

Routine is a big part of many people’s lives, and some may find it hard to change their dietary routines. But people who aren’t eating enough fruits and vegetables likely don’t need to completely overhaul their diets in order to include more fruits and vegetables. In fact, the American Heart Association notes that the following are some easy ways for people to sneak more fruits and vegetables into their diets.

• Breakfast: When sitting down for a bowl of cereal, add some bananas, raisins or berries to your bowl. When making eggs or breakfast potatoes, add chopped up onions, celery, green or red bell peppers, or spinach.

• Lunch: Forgo sandwiches in favor of fruit or vegetable salads at lunchtime. If you must have a sandwich, top it off with vegetables like cucumbers, sprouts, tomatoes, lettuce, and/or avocado.

• Dinner: Replace less healthy side dishes with fruit or vegetable salads, and don’t forget to include steamed vegetables, even frozen ones, on your dinner plate every night. Add chopped vegetables, such as onions, garlic and celery, when creating soups, stews or sauces.

A few simple strategies can help people eat more fruits and vegetables and reap the many rewards that such foods provide.

Enjoy the moment... knowing your local independent agent, and the company that stands behind them, has your family covered.

Man steals Dallas Rescue Squad vehicle On August 2, at 8:32 pm, the Gaston County Communications Center received a call from a member of the Dallas Rescue Squad stating their ambulance had been stolen from the Caromont Regional Hospital Ambulance Bay. Gaston County Communications immediately put out a BOLO for the vehicle and began tracking its movements through AVI (automatic vehicle location).

Two Dallas Police officers located the rescue squad vehicle and attempted to stop the vehicle. The driver did not stop, and a pursuit was initiated with Gaston County Police offi-

JOSHUA KYLE POINDEXTER cers joining Dallas Police officers as they attempted to get the driver to pull over.

The driver of the vehicle was identified as Joshua

Kyle Poindexter. Mr. Poindexter drove the ambulance to his residence off Bill Beattie Drive, where he immediately surrendered and was taken into custody without incident.

Poindexter was transported to the Gaston County Sheriff’s Office Detention Center. Mr. Poindexter was charged with larceny of a motor vehicle, fleeing to elude arrest, and Reckless Driving. He remains in custody under a $35,000.00 bond.

While Poindexter’s address is listed as Kings Mountain, it isn’t inside the city limits and is located off Hwy. 216 near Tryon Courthouse Road.

Snakes more active in summertime

By Loretta Cozart With over 37 different species of snakes living in North Carolina, you are likely to cross paths with one or more of those slithering neighbors as you venture outdoors this summer.

With the state’s seventeen river systems, plentiful crop and vegetation areas, and new suburban development encroaching upon previously underdeveloped land, encounters with both poisonous and nonpoisonous snakes alike are becoming more frequent.

Most snakes are perfectly harmless and serve a useful purpose of reducing the number of nuisance rats, mice, lizards, and other creatures. According to Snake-Removal.com, there are six types of venomous snakes that share our North Carolina habit including the Copperhead, Cottonmouth, Pigmy Rattlesnake, Eastern Coral Snake, Timber Rattlesnake and the Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake.

The copperhead, with its distinctive tan and brown triangular pattern, is prevalent in wet woodlands and swampy areas in our region. Fortunately, the copperhead’s poisonous bite is not as toxic as other snakes, but it can still cause serious symptoms for adults and poses a severe threat to younger children and smaller animals. The copperhead’s appearance can easily be confused with common non-venomous water snakes and corn snakes.

The cottonmouth, or water moccasin, is another well-known and more frequently seen snake in our region that offers a more potent danger due to its high toxicity venom. A cottonmouth can be easily identified by a white inner lining inside its large jaw.

It is best to stay clear of this large grey, brown and greenish predator with a faint diamond shape pattern along its back.

Less venomous, but very aggressive is the pigmy rattlesnake, sometimes called the “pygmy rattler,” “dusky pink rattlesnake,” or “ground rattler.” A shortlength snake of not more than 30 inches, the pygmy rattlesnake displays a grey and black design with circular or octagonal spots.

Other poisonous venomous snakes that exist but are seldom seen in North Carolina include the coral snake, with bright yellow and red stripes alternating with brown or black stripes, the canebrake rattlesnake, also known as the timber rattler or timber rattlesnake that

prefers uninhabited areas like swamps, remote woodlands, and rocky regions, and the eastern diamondback rattlesnake which tend to live in drier regions in the state. The large and dangerous eastern diamondback rattlesnake displays a distinctive diamond pattern, is highly toxic and can grow to over eight feet long.

There are many other non-venomous species living in our state. Some snakes, including the very common rat snake, hunt and remove other more dangerous snakes, such as the venomous copperhead snake. The rat snake can be either black or gray in color and can be spotted in and around suburban areas.

Racer snakes are very common in our area. The black racer, light racer, and young racer grow to around 70 inches in length and look a little like the black rat snake and eats lizards, frogs, mice, eggs, and insects.

Corn snakes are a more docile reptile coming in a variety of colors, patterns, and sizes including shades of tan, brown, red, beige, yellow and orange with black borders and often a diamond-shaped design.

Corn snakes are often confused with the copperhead or the rat snake, but these snakes seldom cause any harm.

Just as colorful are garter snakes, including the striped garter snake, and come in many designs and colors just like the corn snake. Found more often in the mountain regions and areas with moist vegetation, they eat frogs, toads, and similar creatures and can be a bit more aggressive than others of their species.

Other common snakes in our region include the coachwhip snake, a long and thin snake that can

whip its body and move incredibly fast; the ringneck snake, with a distinctive bright-colored ring around its neck is rather secretive and prefers to be hidden among loose bark of trees, under a log or rock pile and within loose soil; the hognose snake, known as the ‘false puff adder’, can swell its head and make noises to intimidate when threatened; the small scarlet snake shares markings like a venomous coral snake but is harmless; the green snake eats insect and is often bright green to blend into grass and plant life; the earth snake is often a solid brown color to hide in mud, dirt and decomposing leaves; the milk snake features a bright multicolored pattern and grows to a modest 45 inches long; while the eastern king snake can grow to be quite large despite its docile personality.

With outdoor temperatures averaging around the 80 degrees, your chances to encounter one of our slithering neighbors at this time of year is increased. Remember, most snakes are not aggressive. But if you corner it or try to pick it up the snake might attempt to bite you as a means of self-defense. Often, attempts to kill or remove a snake by yourself can backfire resulting in a bad bite or worse. Also, keep pets and children away from the intruding reptile, as the bite of even a small venomous snake can be extremely dangerous to a small victim.

Typically, if you leave the snake alone and give it some space it will retreat on its own. Best to let them slither along as they mind their own business or call a professional animal control representative for assistance.

“By using more environmentally friendly controls we know we are helping to protect our vineyard for future generations,” explained Sullivan.

“You may see a few more weeds in our vineyard compared to others, but we feel that is a small price to pay to preserve the integrity of the land.”

The property and winery will initially be open only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for guests to sample a selection of eight wines that the family sourced through vineyard and winery partnerships throughout the United States, allowing them to focus on cultivating their first estate-produced vintages in 2021.

In addition to wine, the winery will host a rotating tap for local beers, a seasonal menu featuring charcuterie and cheese boards, and an array of non-alcoholic beverages including Pure Intentions Cold Brew coffee and Birch Fine Teas.

The winery associates will offer guided tastings, as well as vineyard tours when the weather permits.

In depth tastings, special food pairing events, and group wine classes will be led by Sullivan, who holds Level 3 Certification in Wines from the London-based Wine and Spirits

Veronét Vineyards and Winery is a privately held estate and winery located in Kings Mountain, North Carolina. Founded by four families and managed by the Sullivan family, a husband-and-wife executive team, the estate vineyards were planted in Spring 2018 and construction on the main winery building was completed in Summer 2019.

Veronét Vineyards and Winery is a family-owned venture that is dedicated to sustainable farming practices and will be a convenient escape to enjoy beautiful scenery, delicious food and wines.

Jason Bridges named AD at KM Middle Kings Mountain native Jason Bridges has been named the new athletic director at Kings Mountain Middle School. He succeeds Tim Gunn, who resigned recently to take a job with the Clover, SC School System.

Bridges has been involved in sports in the city and school system most of his life. His brother, Matt Bridges, is the athletic director at Kings Mountain High and his mother, Dianna Bridges, is the former head volleyball coach at KMHS and coached the Lady Mountaineers to their

first state championship in 1998.

Bridges said he is excited to assume his new duties. He will remain as the school’s head wrestling coach and assistant baseball coach.

“Growing up here and attending high school here makes me proud to be the new athletic director,” Bridges said. “With my brother the athletic director at the high school, I can learn a lot from him.

“Coach Gunn did a great job,” he added. “We have some of the nicest facilities in the county. I look

forward to getting the ball rolling.”

Principal Dustin Morehead said he appreciated the service that Coach Gunn gave the Patriots for many years, and that he welcomes a KM native to keep a good program going.

“We are thankful for the service that Coach Gunn provided our school throughout his multiple years of serving as coach and AD at KMMS,” he said.

“Coach Bridges is a hometown guy that brings many years of experience

as a player and coach to the leadership role of our athletic program. He is well respected in the community and serves as a positive role model for our student athletes in and out of the school.

“We are excited about Coach Bridges continuing to build our athletic program and helping students reach their potential both on and off the field.”

Bridges is a 2000 graduate of KMHS where he was a standout baseball player and wrestler. He played two years of junior college baseball and two years at

Lenoir-Rhyne University.

He began his teaching career in 2005 at Burns Middle School. He later taught at West Elementary in Kings Mountain and has been a teacher and coach at KMMS for five years.

He said he is proud of the accomplishments the KMMS athletic program has made in the past and welcomes the challenge of having that continue.

“We have had a good stretch of competing in the conference playoffs for several year and upgrading our facilities, and we want to continue that,” he said.

Family ID paper work must be filed through https:// www.familyid.com/kingsmountain-middle-school.

All players must have a sports physical to participate.

Kings Mountain High football players go through the opening day of practice last week. They will take part in the East Rutherford Jamboree Saturday night, facing Newton-Conover in the 7 p.m. game. JVs play at 6 p.m.

Stadium turf on schedule, tennis project hits a snag The artificial turf project at John Gamble Stadium is still on schedule to be completed by the season-opening football game on August 23 against Burns, but the tennis project has hit a snag and probably won’t be completed until November 1.

According to David Brinkley, president of the Kings Mountain Touchdown Club, the soil at the tennis courts did not pass todays’ environmental codes for compacting and dirt will have to be brought in

from elsewhere.

Brinkley is pleased with the way the community and others have offered their support of the projects but approximately $875,000 in pledges is still needed to fully fund the projects.

What was originally a $1.6 million project has increased to $2.2 million because new piping had to be put in Beason Creek, which runs under the middle of the football field. The old culvert-type piping system put in when the stadium was built in 1967 was

leaking in places and was in danger of collapsing and had to be completely replaced.

New drain pipes around the field were put in place during the past week and the field has been leveled to begin preparation for turf. Barring any unforeseen problems such as excessive rain, etc., the field will be ready for the Mountaineers’ opening season game.

Meanwhile, the Touchdown Club is asking for everyone to pledge to donate to the

project over a five-year period. Any amount would be appreciated.

Persons wishing to make a pledge and/or donations can contact w w w.kingsmount aintouchdownclub.com, PO Box 2017, Kings Mountain, NC 28086 or call 704-739-4689.

The Touchdown Club is also accepting PayPal on its website, www. kingsmountaintouchdeownclub.com.

All donations are fully tax deductible.

KMHS soccer players go through practice session Friday at the KMMS soccer field.

Bagwell playing in Madison, WI Kings Mountain’s Daniel Bagwell recently completed his first season of baseball at Queens College in Charlotte and is playing for the Madison Mallards in the Northwoods League.

Prior to joining the Mallards he played for the Caroline Vipers in the Southern Collegiate Baseball League

(SCBL) and was the starting pitcher in last week’s allstar game.

As a freshman, he led Queens with a 3.72 earned run average. He appeared in 16 games and had a 1-2 record with two saves. He worked 38.2 innings (second most on the team) and struck out 39 batters.

7th Inning Stretch Festival set for Aug. 10 AM

ER

N

Seven years ago, the American Legion World Series (ALWS) committee wanted to find a way to thank the Cleveland County community for all of the hard work and volunteer hours that go into making the series a success each year.

“Our organization really appreciates the tremendous job this community does in hosting and providing Southern hospitality for the ALWS participants and fans,” says says Eddie Holbrook, chair of the ALWS committee.

To show this thanks, the ALWS committee developed the 7th Inning Stretch Festival, which this year garnered recognition by MSN.com as North Carolina’s best summer festival.

“Only one festival per state was chosen for their summer listing, so this is quite the nod,” says Kim Davis, president of Dragonfly Marketing, which provides management for the festival. “Who knows how large the crowd will be this year, especially with Martina McBride as the headliner!”

This year’s event will be held August 10, 2019, beginning with a 5K at 8 a.m. A percentage of the proceeds from the 5K will go to the family of fallen officer Tim Brackeen.

The Little Miss American Legion World Series Pageant will be held at the Don Gibson Theatre at 10 a.m. The rest of the festival’s activities will be from 3-10 p.m.

Food vendors will also be available throughout the afternoon and evening.

The concert headliner for the evening will be Martina McBride, who will take the stage at 8 p.m. She will be preceded on the stage by the 208th Army Band at 6 p.m. Both concerts are free and open to the public.

Softball players needed to play tennis at KMHS Kings Mountain High’s women’s tennis Coach Rick Henderson is inviting softball players and other athletes to join the Lady Mountaineers tennis team.

Six of the key players off last year’s team graduated in June. That leaves the Lady Mountaineers with only three returning players, and two of those are seniors.

“Women softball players have the same skill sets such as hand, eye and foot coordination as does a tennis player,” said Coach Henderson. “I am a firm believer that a multi-

sport player continues to develop their athleticism especially if they are playing multiple sports.

Is tennis great for all softball players? Probably not, but one will never know if they don’t try.”

Henderson is in his 12th season as head varsity coach for the KMHS women’s tennis team.

His vision is that the program can and will continue to produce some of the best teams ever at KMHS. Anyone interested in playing tennis or needing more information can contact Coach

Henderson by text message at 704-460-8066 or email Rick.Henderson2@duke-energy. com.

Tennis practice is held each weekday afternoon at 6 p.m. at the Kings Mountain Middle School courts. All ninth through 12th grade girls are invited to try out.

This group of girls will be the first team to compete on the new tennis complex at KMHS which will not only include six new courts but restrooms, locker rooms and excellent view for spectators.

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.

BC Seniors Beat the Heat with a little Ice Cream Free Ice Cream is a phrase we wish we could here every day.

On July 19, was national Ice cream day.

The Holiday started In 1984, after President Ronald Reagan proclaimed July as National Ice Cream Month and established National Ice Cream Day as the third Sun-

day in July. The Bessemer City Kiser Center hosted an Ice cream sundae day to celebrate the national event.

Seniors were able to come to the Kiser center and create free ice cream sundaes. Rachel Pasour, Fred Pasour, Gary Smith & Susan Smith all created sundaes with a myriad of

different toppings and flavors. We’ll be celebrating National Ice Cream day next year on July 29, 2020 as well! The Kiser Center will also be hosting other events for seniors throughout the year. Please visit our website or Facebook for more information.
