BY N. ANNETTE MYERS 

The entire population 

of Granville County is 

invited to show their 

support for all cancer 

survivors by attending the 

2013 Relay for Life 

countywide event at the J. 

F. Webb track beginning 

with the Opening 

Ceremony at 6 p.m., 

Friday, May 17. 

The opening ceremony 

focuses on survivors and 

the reasons for Relay. The 

survivors will arrive at 

the track shortly before 

the 6 p.m. ceremony. The 

ceremony will include 

recognition of the 

Caregiver of the year, a 

person nominated for 

recognition for their help, 

love and support of a 

survivor. The short 

ceremony is a time to 

recognize the efforts of 

teams to pull together 

people from all walks of life 

with a common objective to 

encourage and support 

survivors wherever they 

are in their experience 

with cancer. The Webb 

Drum Line will join the 

Relay county co-chairs, 

mayors from across the 

county and the members of 

the Bikers Church as they 

focus on beloved citizens of 

Commissioner Kevin Easter presented Lonnie Cole, Sr., 

Stem Fire Department Chief with a $5,000 donation from 

the Town of Stem. Cole also serves as Commissioner on 

the Stem Town Board. 

the county who are 

survivors. 

Once the ceremony is 

completed, the torch is lit 

to signify the official start 

of the event and the first 

lap is completed by the 

survivors. The second lap 

will be a caregiver’s lap 

and then representatives 

from every team will form 

the third lap. Once those 

3 laps are completed, the 

track is opened to all 

attendees to join the walk 

and maintain a continual 

presence on the track 

until Saturday morning at 

11 a.m. 

The luminaria 

ceremony is scheduled for 

9 p.m. At that time the 

track falls silent and 

activities focus on a 

celebration of those who 

have survived cancer, and 

on those who have been 

lost to cancer as they are 

each remembered by 

lighting a candle in their 

honor or memory. 

Walking around the track 

and reading the names of 

individuals on the 

luminaria bags makes the 

reason for Relay personal. 

This is a wonderful time 

to present a survivor with 

a flower or a hug just to 

remind them that they are 

loved and in the thoughts 

of others. 

The entertainment for 

the event is a sampling of 

the outstanding talent of 

Granville County citizens. 

Everyone is encouraged to 

attend, enjoy and support 

our local talent. Talent is 

scheduled as follows on 

Friday evening: 7 p.m. 

Star Yancey and Family; 

7:30 p.m. Jonathan 

Abbott; 8 p.m. Brooks 

Paul; 9 p.m. Luminary

10 p.m. Tyrand; 10:30 p.m.

p.m. Backyard Bluegrass 

Band and 12 midnight 

Karaoke. 

Relay teams will have 

a variety of foods for sale 

throughout the evening, 

night and morning. In 

addition, throughout the 

evening and Saturday 

morning there will be 

special events, including 

the ACS 100th birthday 

lap with hats and balloons 

led by the Oxford Youth 

Team. The Butner Stem 

Team will hold a 

CornHole Tournament, 

First Baptist of 

Creedmoor will have a 

Scavenger Hunt, there

between teams, a 

Purple Glove Dance for 

Mothers and Daughters 

Against Cancer, and a 

Blackout Cancer Lap with 

sunglasses, hats and 

sunscreen on your nose. 

On Saturday morning 

everyone can join Zumba 

at 7:30 a.m This will be 

sponsored by the 

Mountain Creek Team 

and led by instructors, 

Wendi Yancey and friends. 

Bring a dollar and join the 

hour of fun and action. If 

you have never seen 

Zumba, this is the time 

and place to learn all 

about it. The only 

requirement to participate 

is that you be old enough 

to walk! 

The final event will be 

the Kids’ Walk and activities 

on Saturday morning 

beginning at 9 a.m. 

There will be mascots 

from various sports teams, 

schools and businesses 

present for entertainment 

and photos. 

Take the opportunity 

to participate in an effort 

to support research and 

development for a cure of 

a disease that will impact 

all of our lives in some way 

or other. The county has 

lost many beloved citizens 

in recent weeks and 

throughout the year to 

cancer. Relay for Life and 

the American Cancer 

Society, which is 100 years 

old this year, celebrates 

every birthday of every 

survivor. It is one more 

step of success in the fight 

back against cancer. See 

you at the track! 

Alive After Five Event, May 23 

The Granville County 

Chamber of Commerce is 

excited to celebrate the 

10th anniversary of its 

community events 

ALIVE AFTER FIVE on 

May 23rd, 2013. 

There is absolutely no 

group better to open this 

special series than the 

Craig Woolard Band. 

Over the last years, Alive 

After Five events have 

featured “beach music” 

bands, simply because it is 

the music that appeals to 

all age groups. 

What is beach music? 

It’s the music that when 

you hear it, you 

immediately recognize it. 

It makes you want to get 

up and dance! It’s that 

feel-good music that 

makes you want to forget 

about all your problems 

and just have a good time. 

It’s a party! And, for those 

of us lucky enough to 

have grown up with 

beach music, it’s a 

memory --- that special 

time and special someone 

you met at the beach . . . 

It’s the music you heard 

on the jukebox at the 

Jolly Knave or by one of 

the many bands at OD in 

Myrtle Beach and The 

Pavilion. It’s the music 

that takes us back to the 

good times when things 

Planning Board OK With 

were simple. 

The bands may have 

changed a little, some of 

the clubs are gone, but the 

music is still here. It’s a 

collection of R&B, Soul, a 

little disco, or even some 

R&R - basically, if you can 

shag to it, it’s Beach 

Music!!! 

Many see it as a local 

phenomenon, something 

uniquely Southern, and 

maybe even a little 

Carolinian. 

The Craig Woolard 

Band wows their 

audience with one of the 

most diverse repertoires 

and original crowd 

participation shows in the 

industry. It is no wonder 

they have become one of 

the most highly- 

sought-after bands for 

weddings, private parties, 

corporate events, concerts 

and festivals all over the 

The Chamber is so 

very fortunate to have an 

incredibly talented artist,

Main Street Pawn Shop 

[Continued On PAGE 9A] 

The Creedmoor 

Planning Board has voted 

to recommend that the 

city’s board of 

commissioners add pawn 

shops to the list of 

permitted uses in the 

Main Street zoning 

district. 

The unanimous action 

came at a regular 

planning board meeting 

on May 9. 

Planning board 

members were 

responding to a petition 

for a text amendment to 

the Creedmoor Zoning 

Ordinance filed by Joey 

Checkov of G&H Trading, 

Inc. The owner of the 

building where the 

applicant wants to open a 

business, Graham 

Cawthorne, appeared 

before the board and said, 

“G&H Trading has plans 

to open a Jewelry Store 

and Gold Buying 

business at 207 N. Main 

Street, Creedmoor. They 

would like the ability to 

lend money and use gold 

and silver as collateral. 

“To do so a 

pawnbroker’s license is 

required, and pawnshop 

is not an allowed use in 

the Main Street zoning 

district.” 

The petition suggests 

that the zoning change be 

allowed with three 

additional standards: 

limit hours of operation to 

8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., no 

gun sales, and no 

pornographic materials or 

sales. 

Planning board 

members struck out the 

limited hours standard 

before passing their 

f a v o r a b l e 

recommendation on to the 

city board. During 

discussion, they pointed 

out that hours are not 

limited for other 

businesses in the district. 

Creedmoor Assistant 

Planning, Zoning and 

S u b d i v i s i o n 

Administrator, Mike 

Frangos, presented a 

report from the town 

planning department 

that recommends the 

zoning change be allowed 

with these standards: 

hours limited to 8:00 a.m. 

to 8:00 p.m.; no outdoor 

storage of merchandise 

or goods; no unsightly 

window display of 

appliances, tools, or 

housewares; no firearm 

sales or trades on 

premises; no window 

tinting; and 500 feet of 

separation between 

pawnshops. 

The Creedmoor City 

Board, at a regular 

workshop meeting 

Monday night, set a 

public hearing on the 

issue for Tuesday, May 

28, at 7:00 p.m. 

The students in Chelsea Taylor’s 2nd grade class at 

Butner-Stem Elementary organized a canned food drive 

for the school. The students made their own 

advertisements and announcements and helped to collect 

and count the food. On Tuesday, May 14, Pastor Larkins 

from Community United Methodist Church in Butner drove 

her SUV to the school and the students filled it completely 

with the canned food items they collected. CUMC has a 

food pantry to help families in the Butner and Stem 

communities. It was an opportunity for the students in 

Chelsea Taylor’s class to help their community.

Your Week Ahead Horoscope 

May 10, 2013 - May 16, 2013 

by Lasha Seniuk 

ARIES (March 21- 

April 19): A penny 

saved is a penny earned 

this week. A bargain 

isn't really a bargain if 

the item is neither 

useful nor practical. 

Physical activity is a 

good way to pass the 

time and it shouldn't 

cost a thing. 

TAURUS (April 20- 

May 20): Show that you 

mean business. Jeans 

and a T-shirt won't get 

you anywhere, but 

showing off your sense 

of style and good taste 

will earn you raves in 

the week ahead. Only a 

true professional will 

win the day. 

GEMINI (May 21- 

June 20): Couch 

potatoes need not apply. 

The best way to get the 

most out of your week is 

by getting out there and 

doing. Perform 

research, lay out plans, 

or look for problems to 

solve to gain the most 

satisfaction. 

CANCER (June 21- 

July 22): The best 

things in life are free. 

Find outlets for excess 

energy by grabbing the 

golf clubs, taking a hike 

or tackling household 

chores. Spending money 

should not be a primary 

goal in the week ahead. 

LEO (July 23-Aug. 

22): Stick with the plan. 

No matter what 

situation arises in the 

week to come, don't be 

derailed from your 

original goal. You can't 

solve all of the world's 

problems, but you can 

take care of your own. 

VIRGO (Aug. 23- 

Sept. 22): Like a 

famous TV cop used to 

say, "All we want are the 

facts." Focus on cut-anddried 

facts, rather than 

trying to tap into your 

creative side this week. 

Let conventional 

wisdom be your guide; 

don't think outside the 

box. 

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 

22): You may not be a 

movie star, but you can 

look the part. Take a 

little extra time to polish 

your appearance and you 

may be surprised at the 

results. Following whims 

will be more satisfying 

than work this week. 

SCORPIO (Oct. 23- 

Nov. 21): Keep an eye out 

for adventure. Don't hole 

up in the house when you 

and a special someone can 

explore the world in the 

week to come. Be 

supportive of friends or 

loved ones who may need 

a little boost. 

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 

22-Dec. 21): Don't curb 

your enthusiasm. A 

positive state of mind can 

make even the most 

mundane trip an exciting 

adventure in the week 

ahead. If the weather 

won't cooperate, lose 

yourself in a book. 

CAPRICORN (Dec. 

22-Jan. 19): Do or do not; 

there is no try. This week 

is the time to cross 

nagging little chores off 

your to-do list. If you're 

feeling lonesome, go 

looking for someone - and 

find someone you will! 

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20- 

Feb. 18): Those who go 

looking for faults in every 

little detail are likely to 

find them. No one is 

perfect, so don't expect 

anyone to be an exception 

this week. Adopt a more 

forgiving approach to 

relationships. 

PISCES (Feb. 19- 

March 20): Make the 

world go away. Others 

may not appreciate your 

whimsical outlook but 

your heart is in the right 

place. Get out and about 

this week; you can find 

the perfect setting to do 

your own thing.

KENPO CLASSES 

OFFERED 

Beginning Tuesday, 

April 23, to Monday, June 

10, Kenpo will be offered 

to victims and survivors of 

domestic violence and 

sexual assault. This 

service will be offered 

every Tuesday and 

Thursday from 7 to 8 p.m. 

The instructor, 

Professor Gil Velez, 

started his training in 

New York and continued 

training to other parts of 

the world during his 

military career. He also 

had the pleasure of 

training at Ed Parker’s 

school in Pasadena, Calif. 

He holds a fifth degree 

Black Belt in American 

Kenpo and is also ranked 

in various other martial 

arts. 

Ed Parker’s American 

Kenpo is a martial arts 

style characterized by the 

use of quick moves in 

rapid-fire succession 

intended to overwhelm an 

opponent. It is largely 

taught as a “street” self 

defense style and is 

derived from traditional 

Southern Chinese martial 

arts and martial arts from 

the cultural melting pot of 

Hawaii. 

Kenpo aerobics 

combine some of the basic 

Kenpo training into an 

aerobic workout where 

participants learn basic 

self defense skills and 

learn to develop strength, 

flexibility and endurance.

Each year our nation 

ecognizes May as 

ational Foster Care 

onth. This month 

alutes the irreplaceable 

alue that foster parents, 

hild welfare 

rofessionals, and 

volunteers have for the 

more than 400,000 

children and youth who 

live in the foster care 

system annually. 

Today there are over 

8,600 children in foster 

care in North Carolina. 

These children are forced 

to leave their homes due 

to crisis situations, and 

they look to loving adults 

in our communities for the 

things that they lack from

their own families. 

Foster families give 

these children a chance to 

prosper emotionally, 

physically, mentally, and 

socially. Without foster 

parents, a large portion of 

our population would 

enter society alone 

without knowing the love 

and security of a family. 

However, these 

champions often go 

unnoticed. National 

Foster Care Month 

provides the occasion to 

raise awareness of foster 

care and to present 

opportunities for citizens 

in our communities to be 

informed, provide 

support, and perhaps 

consider becoming a 

foster parent. 

Children’s Home 

Society of North Carolina 

understands that the 

process of becoming a 

foster parent can seem 

intimidating, so we have 

provided detailed 

information on our 

website. By visiting 

"www.chsnc.org", potential 

foster parents are 

presented with helpful 

information on foster care 

and adoption by selecting 

the “Programs and 

Services” tab at the top of 

the home page. From 

here, basic steps to 

becoming a foster parent 

are clearly explained. 

Those interested are 

invited to attend a free 

information meeting in 

their area. These 

meetings are offered 

throughout the state and 

additional information on 

the meetings is available 

on our website under the 

“Get Involved” tab, and 

then select “Events”. 

Because our mission is 

founded on ensuring a 

permanent, safe, and 

loving family for every 

child, those considering 

providing foster care can 

rest assured that 

Children’s Home Society is 

prepared to walk 

alongside foster families 

every step of the way. 

In 1988, then-Senator 

Strom Thurmond 

introduced May as 

National Foster Care 

Month in order to draw 

attention to and promote 

the phenomenon that was 

occurring in our nation. 

Catching the vision, 

President George H.W. 

Bush declared May as the 

National Foster Care 

Month and issued an 

annual proclamation in 

each year of his 

presidency to recognize 

the working hands that 

had begun to create the 

beautiful, united tapestry 

of foster care in America.

Letters To The Editor 

HB944 NEEDED 

To The Editor: 

As a private school educator, I see firsthand how 

smaller classrooms and the ability to spend more time 

with students can positively impact their academic 

progress - especially for low-income children. For these 

reasons, House Bill 944 (Opportunity Scholarship Act) 

is needed. 

I’ve heard some say this bill will undermine our 

public schools. This is simply untrue. We have great 

public schools, but not every school can effectively 

teach every child. 

House Bill 944 is for our most underserved 

students who need schools that can work with them 

individually. The bill guarantees that schools like mine 

are accountable through audits ensuring only qualified 

families obtain scholarships and lawmakers receive 

reports showing academic gains of scholarship 

students and their public school classmates. 

I’ve also heard private education would be 

unaffordable for these families even with a 

scholarship. A recent statewide tuition study found 

that a $4,200 scholarship would make private school 

affordable for many low-income families. 

House Bill 944 is needed because our working-class 

children cannot afford to wait another day to find a 

school that works for them. They deserve this 

opportunity.

GPS TRACKING OVERDUE 

To The Editor: 

Some time ago, I penned an editorial addressing 

the obvious need for domestic violence offenders to be 

subject to constant monitoring, i.e. GPS tracking. For 

too long, we have heard the sad stories of women who 

got restraining orders for men they fear, only to have 

those same men attack and often kill them at work or 

home. Although I am not a tech geek, it did seem 

apparent that with all the technology we have at out 

disposal, there ought to be a way to intervene on such 

matters, before they become tragedies. Seems the 

answer is near. 

With a central system devoted to domestic 

ffenders, whenever someone begins to approach 

omeone he is not supposed to be near, a signal would 

e sent to all law enforcement. That way, whoever is 

loser to the scene would be able to take action and 

ossibly save lives. It would also add a little solace 

nd much deserved peace to those who are being 

rotected. 

The bill dealing with this is heading to our Senate, 

named after Allison Gaither), and although this 

hould not be a partisan issue, it might do well if 

veryone contacted their Senate office and let them 

now this is something we all need. It is long overdue, 

nd should set the standard for such issues.

Senate Puts Toe 

Forward On Tax Reform 

W oo hoo! 

I’m 

going to save $650 a year! 

What? You haven't 

plugged your income, 

your dependent information 

and your tax 

filing status in the new 

tax calculator set up by 

state Senate leaders to 

determine your tax 

savings under their tax 

reform proposals? 

Well, go forth. You can 

find it at www.nc 

taxcut.com. 

Besides that tax 

calculator, you can hear 

Senate leader Phil 

Berger, in a video, selling 

the plan. The website 

also lays out the broad 

strokes -- big reductions 

in the personal income 

tax, a slight reduction in 

the sales tax while that 

tax is expanded to cover 

more than 100 services, 

and small cuts to the 

corporate income tax and 

business franchise tax. 

Maybe "plan" is too 

concrete a term. Despite 

coming up with the 

calculator to estimate 

individual taxpayer 

savings, Senate leaders 

have yet to release a 

detailed 

piece of 

legisation. 

That 

is not 

s u r - 

prising. 

As I 

pointed 

out in a 

column 

a few 

d a y s 

ago, this is some pretty 

scary stuff for a group of 

folks (by that, I mean all 

politicians) who live their 

lives kind of like cats, 

avoiding downpours and 

tepidly stepping out 

whenever there is any 

change in the wind. 

Putting one's name to 

a tax plan is a lot like a 

cat asking to be tossed 

into a swimming pool. 

So, Berger et al 

deserve some credit. 

Maybe they should 

receive some points for 

transparency, too. 

After all, that tax 

calculator, if its 

assumptions are correct, 

is unlikely to make a big 

chunk of the pop-ulace

that the

would

Among the results: a

$40,000; a two-child 

family earning $200,000 

would get a $4,200 tax 

cut; and the savings for a 

two-child family with $1 

million in earnings would 

be $53,750. 

These kinds of 

numbers handed Democrats 

and the left plenty 

of ammunition. They 

deemed the plan an 

attack on the working 

class.

T HE R ALEIGH R EPORT 

College, is host of the 

UNC-TV’s North 

Carolina Bookwatch. 

Before I explain, let 

me tell you a little bit 

about the books. 

Popular novelist 

Clyde Edgerton’s "Papadaddy’s 

Book for New 

Fathers: Advice to Dads 

of All Ages" is based on 

what he has learned as 

the older father of three 

young children. He will be 

69 on May 20. 

Edgerton embraces 

the opportunities young 

children present to an 

older parent and laughs 

at the multiple 

challenges. After all, 

those extra years of 

writing, teaching, and 

living have taught him 

some things that young 

parents might not know. 

He has learned to 

laugh at himself. You can 

see his smile when you 

read about how he 

recommends installing 

the car’s child’s seat 

weeks before the baby 

comes because, he says, it 

took him weeks to learn 

how to accomplish that 

task. 

Just as Edgerton’s 

wonderful novels give us 

a record of our changing 

region and its peoples, so 

does Charlotte Observer 

retired chief photographer 

Don Sturkey in 

"This Old Wheel Will Roll 

Around 

Again: A 

Pictorial 

History of 

the South, 

1 9 5 0 - 

1990." 

Sturkey 

fills his 

book with 

more then 

200 photos 

of mill 

workers, tenant farmers, 

civil rights protesters, Ku 

Klux Klan rallies, 

Vietnam protesters, and 

famous people, 

interspersed with lovely 

and provocative pictures 

of ordinary life in our 

region. 

The book opens with 

an essay by Frye Gaillard 

about our state’s progress 

on racial matters. It is 

illustrated by Sturkey’s 

classic photograph of 15- 

year-old Dorothy Counts 

making her way through 

an angry white mob to 

integrate a Charlotte high 

school in September 1957. 

Gaillard praises 

school board member 

Ward McKeithen, who 

explained, according to 

Gaillard, "People could 

support the public schools 

or see them destroyed, 

and for many 

Charlotteans the decision 

was obvious, even if it was 

hard. They would do what 

they could to make the 

best of the change." 

In "The Seventh 

Angel," 

W a r d 

McKeithen’s 

son, Alex, 

chronicles 

his experience 

as 

a Davidson 

College 

student on 

his junior 

year abroad 

when what 

he calls "the happiest 

time of my life" exploded 

into a full-blown manic 

episode in Paris. 

Thinking he was the 

Seventh Angel described 

in Revelation, he ran 

nude through Paris 

warning that the last day 

had arrived. Arrested 

and confined in mental 

institutions, his account 

of his painful recovery 

and return to a 

productive life is griping 

and inspirational. 

Similarly, in "Cobalt 

Blue," Peggy Payne's 

fictional character, a 38- 

year-old Pinehurst artist, 

is consumed by 

uncontrollable sexual 

arousal and activity, a 

condition that may be 

explained by a feature of 

a brand of Asian yoga 

known as "kundalini 

rising." 

The book’s vivid 

descriptions led Peggy 

Payne's husband to warn 

that his wife’s new book 

is "not for the faint 

hearted." 

popular UNC-TV 

program "Exploring 

North Carolina." 

His new book, 

"Crossroads of the 

Natural World: Exploring 

North Carolina 

with Tom Earnhardt," 

has been called a "love 

letter to the wild places 

and natural wonders of 

North Carolina." 

Earnhardt takes his 

readers across our state, 

explaining its rich 

diversity and 

illustrating it with 

striking photographs. 

Danny Bernstein, 

takes us across North 

Carolina in a different 

way in her new book, 

"The Mountains-to-Sea 

Trail Across North 

Carolina: Walking a 

Thousand Miles through 

Wildness, Culture and 

History." 

Although the trail is 

a work in progress, 

Bernstein persuaded 

this reader that the sites 

and experiences along 

the way make the long 

journey well worthwhile.

Students Visit Creedmoor City Hall 

If you happened to 

ass by a large number of 

hildren dressed in rain 

onchos and a wide 

ariety of colorfully 

hemed rain boots, being 

erded by teachers and 

arents, you witnessed 

he 3rd grade classes of 

reedmoor Elementary 

alking the 0.7 miles it 

akes to get to City Hall 

n the new sidewalk. 

Their tour of City Hall 

egan in the Board of 

ommissioners room 

here each student was 

ssigned a key 

overnment role to play. 

fter the Mayor talked 

bout the responsibilities 

f each role, the students 

ove into a mock board 

eeting concerning the 

uilding of a new city 

ark. The City’s Parks 

nd Recreation Director 

Scottie Cornett Wilkins 

was present to educate 

the students on the 

process of how a city may 

go about constructing a 

new park, and the 

responsibilities of each 

person involved. To 

everyone’s enjoyment, the 

student commissioners 

voted 5-0 in favor of the 

new park. 

Afterward, the 

students ventured over to 

the Police Department for 

a tour led by Investigator 

John Smith. He discussed 

the importance of every 

single person in the 

department from the 

telecommunicators who 

sit up front at dispatch, to 

the Chief of Police. In 

addition, Sergeant Chris 

Crain and Officer Rob 

Morris were on hand to 

allow the children to see 

inside a police cruiser 

while the blue lights on 

and flashing. 

New this year was a 

visit to Creedmoor’s 

Volunteer Fire 

Department. Training 

Officer, Captain Richard 

Ray, educated the 

children on many things, 

such as the proper way to 

react in an emergency 

situation, different ways 

to put out different types 

of fires, and the gear a 

fireman wears. To top it 

off, Captain Ray opened 

up all the side 

compartments of the fire 

truck to allow the 

children a look inside to 

see all the gadgets a 

fireman must learn to 

use! 

Knowledge is power, 

and it is important for 

children to be exposed to 

as many of life’s 

opportunities as possible, 

allowing them to dream 

as big as they are able. By 

being given the chance to 

experience a day in the 

life at Creedmoor City 

Hall, the Police 

Department, and the 

Creedmoor Volunteer 

Fire Department, each 

child was shown a path in 

life they may not have 

known before, and may 

wish to explore. A big 

thank you to the teachers 

and parents who make

Brassfield Road Closed For Bridges To Be Replaced 

Work got under way 

n Monday, May 13, on an 

.C. Department of 

ransportation project to 

eplace three bridges just 

/10ths of a mile apart 

ver Beaver Dam Creek 

n Brassfield Road, 

southeast of Creedmoor. 

Fred Smith Co. of Raleigh 

was awarded the $1.1 

million contract as the 

low bidder. 

The oldest bridge of 

the group was built in 

1950, while the other two 

were constructed in 1964. 

They are each concretesurfaced 

structures on 

timber pilings. The 

original bridge is just 36- 

feet long, while the other 

two are each half that 

length. 

The new bridges 

should be open to traffic 

by Nov. 8. 

The work means there 

will be a signed detour in 

place, using Pope Road, 

Horseshoe Road and 

Lawrence Road to get 

around the closures.

Granville And Durham County Soil And Water Districts Hosted Pond Clinic 

Granville and 

Durham County Soil and 

Water Districts hosted a 

pond clinic on Saturday, 

April 27, 2013, at the NC 

State Beef Cattle 

Research Farm (located 

near Butner). The event 

kicked off with a Fishing 

Tournament from 7:00 

a.m. to 8:30 a.m.. 

Clinic topics included 

pond maintenance, fish 

production, pond 

construction and wildlife 

management. Several 

attendees, having 

problems with aquatic 

weeds in their ponds, 

brought samples to be 

identified. Lunch, a fish 

fry, was provided and the 

clinic ended with a 

demonstration by Foster 

Lake and Pond 

Management involving 

the use of shock boats to 

helps measure fish 

populations. 

Warren Daniel/ 

Granville Soil and Water 

District called the event a 

success, with about 60 to 

70 people attending from 

both Durham and 

Granville. 

The Granville and Durham Soil and Water Districts sponsored a pond clinic at the NC State 

Beef Cattle Research Farm near Butner. The Clinic attracted about 60 to 70 people from both 

Granville and Durham. One of the favorite demonstrations, other than the fish fry, was the 

shock boat (shown above) and how the Foster Lake and Pond Management group uses it to 

determine fish population.

Y OU 

D ECIDE : 

By Dr. Mike Walden 

N ORTH C AROLINA C OOPERATIVE E XTENSION 

SHOULD 

WE 

DRILL? 

Like many public issues today, drilling for energy 

resources in our country has both strong advocates 

and equally vocal critics. Supporters see domestic 

energy development as a route to national energy selfsufficiency 

and lower fuel prices. Detractors worry 

about possible costs to the environment, health and 

communities from accidents and other side effects 

from drilling. 

North Carolina has joined this debate. Estimates 

show our state has the largest reservoirs of off-shore 

oil and natural gas of any east coast state. There are 

also thought to be significant supplies of natural gas 

underground in the central part of the state. 

This information has led some to push for the 

development of North Carolina’s off-shore and onshore 

energy resources, arguing that doing so will 

create substantial jobs, income and tax revenues for 

the state. 

But what exactly will be the size of these economic 

impacts? And how significant might be the 

environmental and other costs? Since there is a high 

level of interest in this issue in North Carolina, I 

collected relevant geological information and applied 

standard economic analysis techniques to provide 

some answers. I present a summary here, with the 

full report available at http://www.ag-econ.ncsu.edu/ 

faculty/walden/publications/drillingnc.pdf. 

It appears the largest economic impacts for our 

state could come from off-shore drilling. Based on the 

mid-point estimates for off-shore energy quantities 

and forecasts of energy prices from domestic and 

international sources, I estimate that more than 1,100 

jobs and $181 million of annual economic activity 

would be created during a seven-year period of 

building the necessary infrastructure for drilling offshore. 

Then, assuming a 30-year production period, offshore 

energy operations could create almost 17,000 

jobs and $1.9 billion of yearly economic activity. 

Importantly, the economic impact numbers for both 

infrastructure construction and production operations 

are only for North Carolina and do not include jobs 

or incomes going out of state. The numbers also 

include impacts on supplier and other supporting 

firms. 

The average quantities of on-shore energy 

resources estimated by government geologists are 

significantly smaller than for quantities off-shore, so 

the economic impact estimates are also lower. I 

calculate that just shy of 500 North Carolina jobs and 

$80 million of new annual economic activity in our 

state would occur while wells are drilled and 

supporting infrastructure is constructed. Then, while 

the energy resource is being accessed and produced, 

1,400 jobs would be supported and $158 million of 

yearly commerce would be created. 

But -- you probably knew there would be a "but" - 

- I found these estimates are very, very, very sensitive 

to two factors: the quantity of energy resources that 

exists both off-shore and on-shore and the future 

prices of those resources. 

The federal government gives a range of estimated 

energy resource quantities available off-shore and onshore. 

I used the mid-point estimate for the above 

calculations, meaning this was the quantity the 

geologists were 50 percent confident was there. 

However, the government also gives a much lower 

amount that they are 95 percent confident exists and 

a much larger amount they are only 5 percent 

confident is there. 

Forecasts of future energy prices are also fraught 

with uncertainty. Higher prices have two effects on 

the economic impacts from drilling. First, they 

increase the economic value of the energy. And second, 

they make it profitable for energy companies to spend 

more exploring and finding more energy. But lower 

prices send these two impacts in the opposite 

direction. 

The point is that different assumptions about how 

much recoverable energy resources exist for North 

Carolina and the prices of these resources can 

dramatically change the estimated economic impacts 

-- both up and down -- sometimes by a factor of 100! 

Now let me address the potential downsides of 

energy production in North Carolina. For off-shore 

production, I estimate the average annual cost of 

damage -- primarily to coastal counties -- of oil spills. 

Using actual average spillage rates for the last 40 

years and estimates of costs per spill, I calibrated the 

likely yearly cost to be $83 million. Of course, we hope 

improved technology and safety would prevent or 

significantly reduce these costs. 

On-shore energy development from hydraulic 

fracturing is relatively new, so less data are available. 

However, several studies have found a negative 

relationship between on-shore energy production 

activities and residential property values. 

Unfortunately, the potential range of the impact is 

quite large, but applying the results suggests possible 

-- and I emphasize, possible -- property value declines 

between $600 million and $4.7 billion in affected 

North Carolina counties. The lower property values 

reflect the perceived adverse impacts from drilling. 

So, should we drill? I’m hopeful I’ve given you and 

our public decision-makers some useful information 

that will let us decide!

Tax & Business 

INFORMATION PROVIDED BY 

Cozart & Edwards, PA 

Certified Public Accountants 

CHARITY SCAMS ARE A GATEWAY 

TO IDENTITY THEFT 

There were over 10 million cases of stolen identity 

reported this past year, and the business of identity 

theft is on the rise. 

One of the most popular and successful forms of 

theft is the use of fake charities. Don’t be taken in by 

fake charities. If you are duped into contributing, you 

may have given more than just money to the scam 

artists. You may have given them enough of your 

personal financial information to allow them to steal 

your identity. 

Once the thief has your identity (name, address, 

phone number, account numbers, security codes, etc.), 

he or she is free to set up new accounts and make 

purchases in your name. Such activity can be 

financially devastating to you, and it could take 

months to straighten the problem out. 

How does one keep from becoming a victim? Be 

especially cautious of those who contact you by 

telephone or e-mail. You could receive an e-mail from 

a charity with a name you think you recognize. Many 

scam artists are very clever at making up names that 

make you feel you might already know them. Their 

causes always sound good, such as save the whales, 

help poor kids in Africa, help abused animals. Once 

they have hit your hot button and you reply, they are 

on the road to easy money. 

Here is an example of what might take place. Let’s 

say you get an e-mail from ”Doctors Across Africa” 

which you mistake for the legitimate ”Doctors 

Without Borders.” The e-mail does a good job of 

convincing you that this charity assists thousands 

who would have no medical help except for generous 

people such as you. The e-mail has a link to their 

Internet site which looks very professional and 

official. It may contain photos of all the excellent work 

being done by these non-existent doctors. But most 

important, the site will ask you for your credit card 

number, maybe even the three-digit security code, and 

your name and mailing address so they can mail you 

a receipt for your tax deduction. You can be sure that 

by the time you push the ”Submit” button, you will 

have given them all they need to steal your identity. 

Stay alert for charity scams, or your desire to help 

just might result in having your identity stolen.

You ask the Senior question ~ We find the Savvy answer 

How Married Couples Can Boost 

Their Social Security Checks 

Dear Savvy Senior, 

I’ve heard that there are strategies available that 

can help married couples increase their Social Security 

benefits when they retire. My wife and I are 

approaching retirement age and would like to 

understand these options. What can you tell us? 

Getting Prepared 

Dear Getting, 

If you’re willing to wait to full retirement age and 

beyond, married couples have several unique claiming 

options that could actually add tens of thousands of 

dollars to your Social Security checks over your 

retirement. Here’s what you should know. 

Waiting Strategy 

Before we go over the different benefit boosting 

options for married couples, it’s important to know 

that the most commonly used strategy for increasing 

retirement benefits is to delay taking them. 

While workers can start collecting their Social 

Security retirement benefits as early as age 62, 

postponing them to full retirement age (which is 66 if 

you were born between 1943 and 1954), or better yet 

to age 70, can make a big difference. 

Let’s say, for example, that you’re eligible for a 

$1,200 monthly benefit at age 62. By waiting to 66 

your monthly benefit would increase to $1,600. And 

by delaying to age 70, you would boost your benefit a 

whopping 76 percent to $2,112. Delaying will also 

increase your wife’s survivor benefit if you die first. 

Waiting, however, beyond age 70 will not increase your 

benefits. 

Claim and Suspend 

In addition to waiting, Social Security also offers 

two other little known strategies for married couples, 

but you must be at least full retirement age (currently 

66) to use them. 

The first one is called “claim and suspend” (see 

ssa.gov/retire2/suspend.htm ) that allows a worker at 

full retirement age to file for Social Security so their 

spouse can begin collecting a spousal benefit, but asks 

to receive their own benefit later. 

This is best suited for one-earner couples where 

one spouse worked full-time and the other spouse did 

not work outside the home or did not work long enough 

to qualify for Social Security retirement benefits. 

Here’s an example of how it works: Let’s say that 

you are age 66, but want to keep working until 70 to 

collect a higher benefit. Let’s also say your wife is a 

nonworking spouse who just turned 62 and would like 

to start receiving spousal benefits on your work record. 

The problem is she caní’ get them until you sign up. 

So you file for your Social Security benefits but request 

an immediate suspension which allows your wife to 

claim spousal benefits, without locking you into a 

lower payment for life. Then when you do decide to 

start collecting, at age 70, you end the suspension and 

receive a higher benefit for delaying. 

This strategy can also be used if you have children 

under 18, or 19 if they are still attending high school, 

or are disabled. Each dependent child is eligible for 

up to 50 percent of the retiree’s full benefit. And, if 

any child is younger than 16, your spouse can also 

qualify for additional benefits as a caregiver, even if 

she’s under age 62. 

Claim Twice 

For two-career couples, the second strategy known 

as “claim twice,” lets you collect Social Security (at 

full retirement age) first as a spouse and later using 

your own work record. 

Here’s how it works: Let’s say that you are 66 and 

would like to continue working until age 70. But, your 

wife started collecting her benefits on her own work 

record at age 64. You could file a “restricted” 

application with Social Security and collect a spousal 

benefit which is half of what your wife gets. Then, 

once you reach 70, you stop receiving the spousal 

benefit and switch to your own benefit, which will be 

32 percent higher than the benefit you would have 

collected at your full retirement age.

EDWARD JONES INVESTMENT FIRM 

STUDY UP ON COLLEGE SAVINGS VEHICLES 

Another school year is drawing to a close, so if 

you have young children, they’re one year closer to 

the day when they head off to college - and you’re one 

year closer to paying those college bills. 

Fortunately, you’ve got some attractive collegesavings 

options, one of which is a 529 plan. A 529 

plan has high contribution limits, and your earnings 

accumulate tax free, provided they are used for 

qualified higher education expenses. (However, 

earnings not used for qualified expenses may be 

subject to federal and state taxes and a 10% IRS 

penalty. 

Another college-savings vehicle is a Coverdell 

Education Savings Account, which like a 529 plan, 

can generate tax-free earnings if the money is used 

for higher education expenses. You might also 

consider investing in a zero-coupon bond that matures 

just when your child is ready for college. 

Whichever college-savings vehicles you choose, try 

to put them to work as early as you can. Before you 

know it, today’s first graders will be tomorrow’s college 

freshmen.

the throw too first. 

Montren moved third on 

the throw. McAlister came

VGCC Nominates Student For Award 

Vance - Granville 

Community College 

nominated Rebecca 

Fetterhoff of Creedmoor, 

a student in the college’s 

Early Childhood 

Associate program, for 

the North Carolina 

Community College 

System’s Dallas Herring 

Achievement Award. 

That award was 

established by the system 

in 2010 to honor the late 

Dr. Dallas Herring, the 

longtime State Board of 

Education chairman and 

one of the state's earliest 

advocates of community 

colleges. 

Each year, the award 

recognizes a current or 

former community college 

student who best embodies 

Herring's philosophy 

of "taking people 

where they are and 

carrying them as far as 

they can go." 

Fetterhoff recalled 

that although “raised in a 

middle class family,” as a 

young woman, she found 

herself struggling 

financially to raise her 

children. She enrolled in 

Niagara County 

Community College in 

western New York, where 

she lived at the time. She 

obtained a degree and a 

new job in the Human 

Services field that allowed 

her to stop relying on 

public assistance. 

Just as importantly, 

her education boosted her 

“pride, confidence and 

self-esteem,” giving her 

the strength to leave an 

abusive relationship. 

Later, Fetterhoff 

married and moved to 

North Carolina, where 

she needed to reestablish 

a career. “I decided to 

enroll in a community 

college again,” she said, 

referring to VGCC. “I was 

only planning on taking a 

few classes in order to get 

a job, but the wonderful 

advisors at the college 

urged me to continue on 

to complete my associate’s 

degree.” 

Fetterhoff excelled in 

the classroom, making the 

Dean’s List and recently 

being accepted into the 

Phi Theta Kappa honor 

society. 

She has also been a 

member of VGCC’s 

chapter of Student North 

Carolina Association of 

Educators. Fetterhoff has 

taken classes online and 

at the college’s Main 

Campus, South Campus 

and Franklin County 

Campus, and is set to 

graduate in May. 

Meanwhile, while 

continuing her studies 

full-time, she has already 

become employed in the 

education field, as a media 

assistant at two Granville 

County schools, 

Creedmoor Elementary 

and Mt. Energy 

Elementary. 

“Instead of receiving 

state benefits to subsidize 

my income, I receive state 

employee benefits as part 

of my income,” Fetterhoff 

said. “My children now see 

that hard work and 

dedication have positive 

rewards, and I can now 

hold my head high 

knowing that I overcame 

so many obstacles 

throughout my life.” 

She added that she 

believes in giving back to 

her community and is 

active in church groups, 

PTA organizations at the 

two elementary schools 

and the Parent Teacher 

Student Organization at 

South Granville High 

School, which she has 

served as secretary.

Vance - Granville 

ommunity College 

oined its sister colleges 

cross the state in 

elebrating the legacy of 

he late Dr. W. Dallas 

Herring on March 6, 

proclaimed "Dr. W. Dallas 

Herring Day” by the State 

Board of Community 

Colleges. 

During a brief 

From left, VGCC Board of Trustees vice-chair Stan Fox, of 

Oxford, chair Deborah Brown, of Henderson, college president 

Stelfanie Williams, and trustee, Donald C. Seifert, Sr., of 

Henderson, participate in the formal unveiling of the portrait 

of Dallas Herring. (VGCC photo) 

ceremony and reception 

on the college’s Main 

Campus, VGCC 

President Dr. Stelfanie 

Williams told an 

assembly of trustees, 

faculty and staff that 

Herring established the 

philosophy of the 

community college 

system, which celebrates 

its 50th anniversary this 

year. She also unveiled a 

portrait of Herring, a copy 

of which was given to each 

of the state’s 58 

community colleges. 

Commissioned as part of 

the 50th anniversary 

celebration, the portraits 

were sponsored by Duplin 

Winery and by the North 

Carolina Community 

Colleges Foundation. 

As the longtime chair 

of the State Board of 

Education, Herring was 

instrumental in the 

creation of the community 

college system in 1963. 

The State Board of 

Education had 

jurisdiction over the 


system for many years 

after its founding. Since 

Herring’s tenure as leader 

of the Board included the 

establishment of VGCC, 

his signature graces the 

official charter that 

created Vance County 

Technical Institute in 

1969, as well as the new 

charter issued when the 

technical institute 

became a community 

college in 1976. 

Williams said that 

Herring devoted much of 

his 90 years to public 

service, and to education 

in particular. “He was the 

mayor of his hometown, 

Rose Hill, and chairman 

of the Duplin County 

School Board before he 

served on the State Board 

of Education for 22 years, 

20 of those as chairman,” 

the president noted. 

“We remember Dallas 

Herring, not only for his 

service, but also for 

articulating the purpose 

and the vision of our 


system. In fact, his words 

were so profound and 

inspirational that we 

quote him in each one of 

our VGCC student 

catalogs, as saying: 

“The only valid 

philosophy for North 

Carolina is the philosophy 

of total education, a belief 

in the incomparable 

worth of all human 

beings, whose claims 

upon the state are equal 

before the law and equal 

before the bar of public 

opinion; whose talents the 

State needs and must 

develop to the fullest 

possible degree. That is 

why the doors to the 

institutions in North 

Carolina’s System of 

Community Colleges 

must never be closed to 

anyone of suitable age 

who can learn what they 

teach. We must take the 

people where they are and 

carry them as far as they 

can go within the 

assigned function of the 

system.” 

“That philosophy 

continues to guide us 

today at Vance - 

Granville,” Williams 

concluded.

Immediate Past 

President, Paul Shelton,

Pacesetter campaigns 

didn’t let the economy slow 

them down. In fact, they 

out did themselves this 

year. Let me give you 

some examples: 

“Granville Vance 

District Health 

Department surpassed 

their 2012 goal by 33%. 

“Granville County 

government employees 

raised 127% of their 

United Way goal. 

“Altec Industries 

pledged more than 

$102,000 to our campaign. 

Altec employees hosted a 

charity bike ride and golf 

tournament to raise funds 

for our United Way and 

offered other fun events at 

the plant during their 

internal campaign. 

“The very generous 

employees of Bridgestone 

Commercial Solutions 

surpassed their United 

Way goal as well. 

“Granville Health 

Systems employees 

pledged nearly $11,000 

and contributed 150 

pounds of canned/dry food 

to local food pantries. 

“Ideal Fasteners 

employees maintained 

their level of giving while 

collecting canned food, 

diapers and paper goods 

for 2 local food pantries. 

“Dill Air employees 

surpassed their campaign 

goal this year as well 

“Granville County 

Schools’ employees raised 

just over $20,000 for our 

United Way this year, with 

two schools reporting 

100% staff participation in 

the campaign. 

“Revlon and 

Bridgestone continue to 

partner, throughout the 

year, with the local schools 

they supported during our 

2011 and 2012 Day of 

Caring events. 

“United Way impacts 

all of us, improving the 

lives of everyone living in 

Granville County. GCUW 

Executive Director, 

Brenda Dickerson - 

Daniel, encourages anyone 

interested in volunteering 

to call the United Way 

office (919 693 5205) and 

invites those not yet 

involved to join the 2013 

campaign effort. 

“Without volunteers, 

there would be no United 

Way. Thanks to those who 

support our local efforts, 

allowing us to focus on 

what matters for Granville 

County.”

CPR Training Hosted By 

Leadership Granville Class 

Shown above, at the Spring Executive Board meeting at the 

N. C. Division UDC Headquarters in Raleigh, left to right, 

seated, are Dorothy Watson and Mary Ann Keith. Standing: 

Chapter President Shirley Glasgow, Emily Champion and 

Jessica Glasgow. 

On Monday, April 

29th, 2013, “Hands Only 

CPR Training” course 

was hosted by the 2013 

graduating class of 

Leadership Granville at 

the Granville County 

Convention and Expo 

Center on Hwy 15, south 

of Oxford. 

The event was 

advertised throughout 

the community and 

participants were given 

the choice of attending 

one-hour sessions, every 

hour on the hour starting 

at 10:00 AM with the last 

session at 6:00 PM. 

The training provided 

a simplistic hands-only 

approach to the general 

public on how to give 

CPR to an unconscious 

adult, adolescent or child. 

Jonathan Pernell, Major 

Operations Officer and 

Carolyn Devore, Training 

Officer for the 

Emergency Medical 

Services division of 

Granville Health 

System, served as 

training instructors. 

Door prizes were drawn 

at the end of each 

training session for all 

who participated in the 

event. 

Following each 

training session 

participants completed a 

survey to provide 

feedback to the group. “I 

think this is the best 

class project ever offered 

by a Leadership 

Granville class” and 

another said “I’m amazed 

at how simple the 

technique is - now I can 

save a life, too!” 

From September 

until March, the 

Leadership Granville 

Class of 2013 worked to 

identify 18 potential 

community service 

projects. Following the 

development of project 

criteria and evaluations, 

the “CPR Hands Only 

Training Event” was 

selected because of the 

potential life saving 

impact it would have on 

the community. 

“The Leadership 

Granville and the 

Emergency Medical 

Services division of 

Granville Health System 

sincerely appreciate the 

public’s interest in this 

training event,” said 

Michael Turner, Project 

Chairman of the Event.
