Tuesday’s primary election set-tled little for November, instead setting up runoffs among GOP candidates for the area’s and South Carolina’s top leadership positions.

Meanwhile, Democratic guber-natorial candidate Vincent Sheheen and U.S. Senate candidate Alvin

Greene, who will face incumbent Jim DeMint, won their way to Novem-ber’s general election on a day that featured about 25 percent of regis-tered voters casting their ballots.

The runoff election is scheduled for June 22.

Locally, S.C. House District 38 will be among the Republican run-off elections set for June 22.

Incumbent Joey Millwood will face off against challenger Doug Bran-non. John Moore was eliminated from the race.

Millwood, a former Tryon Daily Bulletin employee, received 1,769 votes, while Brannon garnered 1,714 to force the runoff. Moore

Officials eye joint water authority againby Leah Justice

Area Polk and town officials may have experienced déja-vu Tuesday night when a joint meeting turned to talk of creat-ing a county water authority.

Just a few years ago, the county and towns held meet-

ings intended to create a joint water authority, but the group could not reach consensus. The towns and county decided then to continue developing separate water systems.

Now attitudes seem to have changed, partly because budget

cuts and reduced water usage are making it difficult for the towns to maintain their systems without raising rates.

followed with 1,267 votes.“I’m proud to have received the

most votes and to have carried eight out of 12 precincts,” said Millwood. “For the most part, it came out like we thought.”

Brannon, who served as Lan-drum’s mayor from 1993-97, easily carried his three home precincts – Landrum High School, Landrum United Methodist Church and Gramling Methodist.

Brannon said he expected a runoff all along.

“When I got into this thing, I knew it was going to end up in a runoff,” he said. “So, I was pleased with the way things went and very thankful for the people who got out to vote."

Now, Brannon will go back to work in an effort to win over Moore’s voters.

“John Moore is a friend of mine, so I plan to have several conversa-tions with him over the next few days and see if Mr. Moore will endorse me,” Brannon said.

Locally, incumbent Dale Cul-breth faced down former state Rep. Joe Mahaffey to retain his seat on the Spartanburg County Council. Culbreth, who won with 55 percent of the vote, will now serve a second term on council.

The District 38 seat is among several GOP runoffs set for later this month.

DeMint avoided that fate with a landslide U.S. Senatorial vic-tory over challenger Susan Gaddy. DeMint received 83 percent of the vote statewide.

The GOP gubernatorial runoff will be contested between Nikki Hailey and Gresham Barrett. Hailey came close to taking the four-way

race straight to November with 48 percent of the vote. Had she pushed that mark over 50 percent, she would have won the GOP’s nomi-nation over Barrett (22 percent), Henry McMaster (17 percent) and Andre Bauer (12 percent).

With 34 percent of the vote, Ken Ard will face Bill Connor (24 percent) for the Republican nomi-nation for Lt. Governor.

The hotly contested race for the Fourth Congressional District between incumbent Bob Inglis and solicitor Trey Gowdy will go to a runoff as well. Gowdy earned 40 percent of the ballots, while Inglis finished with 27 percent. Jim Lee, David Thomas and Christina Jeffrey were eliminated from the race.

Millwood said the number of races being contested in the up-coming runoff election should help voter turnout.

“We’ve got a governor’s race and a congressional race, so we won’t be the only ones pushing for a turnout, so that’ll help tre-mendously, but for the next two weeks, we’re going to be working crazy hard.”

Corbin defeats Cato in District 17S.C. House Speaker Pro Tem

Harry Cato of Traveler’s Rest will not be on the ballot this fall, after 20 years representing Greenville County.

Businessman Tom Corbin took 59 percent of the vote in S.C. House District 17, the north-ern tier of Greenville County,

including Gowensville and Lake Lanier.

Gowensville voters were near-ly evenly split between Cato and Corbin, with Nathan Earle com-ing in a distant third.

Corbin had 3,379 votes to Cato’s 1,818, and avoided a run-off with 59 percent of the vote.

out water and sewer rates and how we are going to maintain these systems,” said Tryon Town Manager Justin Hembree. “None of us are the big bad wolf trying to take something from anybody.”

Polk County also has much more to bring to the table this round, including its purchase of Lake Adger for a future water source. The county also has about 15 miles of water lines, with plans for expansion.

The group agreed Tuesday to seek advice from Jackson County’s Tuckaseigee Water and Sewer Authority, which has successfully managed a similar situation.

The Tuckaseigee author-ity was created in 1992 when the county of Jackson and the towns of Dillsboro, Sylva and Webster consolidated their water and wastewater utili-ties. Polk officials said that the

Jackson County authority has faced one of Polk's challenges: two of Jackson County's towns are close together but with a significant elevation difference, like Saluda compared to Tryon and Columbus.

Columbus sparked the idea of holding joint meetings a few months ago, saying the towns could share resources to help lower costs.

After some discussion about the towns' individual concerns about water, including Colum-bus' concern that it might lose major customer Tryon Estates to the county if the county runs water lines down Peniel Road, all the towns agreed to look into forming a water authority.

Many officials mentioned the difference in economic times between now and several years ago when development and the economy was booming.

“We had a good economy where we all thought we could

Once upon a time, not

so long ago, a local couple

happened upon a skinny

little Appaloosa mare in a

dirt lot. Her owner no longer

wanted to trail ride her; she

wasn’t needed any more.

Luckily this couple knew

a few things about horses

and decided to take her

home with them and find

the little mare a new family.

Some extra food, good grass

and a few trail rides later this

couple put an ad up in the

local feed store.

At this very same time, a

sweet “horse crazy” young

girl had convinced her

parents to let her take some

riding lessons. She caught

the bug and now dreamed of

having her own horse. After

some poking and prodding

her parents answered an ad

they found at the local feed

store: an Appaloosa mare –

for sale! The little girl, whose name

is Amanda, met the little

mare, who’s name is Nia,

and as most dreams happen

(when they come true) it was

destined they be together.

One man's trash is another's treasure

Amanda started to take

lessons from a local profes-

sional. After about six weeks

of lessons Amanda and Nia

entered the Foothills Riding

Club Horse Trial at FENCE

where they won their dres-

sage class and successfully

completed the cross-country

course and stadium jump-

ing. They ended up high

point!Amanda Morfino on her new horse Nia, with Renée and Nick Morfino. (photo submitted)

do everything ourselves,” said Polk County Commissioner Vice-Chair Ray Gasperson. “The reality is we may not see that again and we have to work together.”

H e m b r e e s a i d w h e n times are good it’s easy not to cooperate.

“We’re in a time now of being forced to cooperate whether we want to or not,” said Hembree.

Whitson said this time, not all the towns would have to join the county’s system if they weren’t interested. He said the county’s system was designed that way, where one, two or all three could join or none at all.

Tryon Mayor Alan Peoples said Tryon’s issue with the

idea of a joint system when it was last discussed was that the draft authority agreement required that Tryon purchase about $200,000 of water per year from the joint system.

“Let me tell you what the killer was for us,” said Peoples.

“Whether we used a drop of water or not we were going to have to pay $200,000 per year.”

The nex t joint meeting

will also be held at Columbus Town Hall and is scheduled for Aug. 3 at 7 p.m. Columbus Mayor Eric McIntyre volun-teered to contact Tuckaseigee officials to gather information and see it they would be inter-ested in coming to talk with the joint group.

Look for more coverage of the joint meeting in the Bul-letin soon.

“We’re in a time now of being forced to cooperate whether we want to or not.”

Almost like being therePCHS graduation, awards ceremony to be streamed live by John Clayton

Those who can’t make it to Friday night’s graduation cer-emonies at Polk County High School can still have virtually the best seat in the house.

Polk County Schools will stream both the graduation cer-emony and tonight’s Polk County High School and Polk County Virtual Early College Senior Award ceremony live on the Internet through a link on www.polkschools.org. Both Internet broadcasts will begin at 7 p.m.

It is the first time either event

will be presented on the web.“We’re hoping this will ben-

efit a lot of families who have folks who can’t come to town for graduation or the awards ceremony,” said Polk County Schools Communications Coor-dinator Stacey Stafford.

The awards ceremony will be held at the Polk County High auditorium, but the graduation ceremony is scheduled to be held at the football stadium, barring poor weather.

“We’re going to give it a try,” said Dave Scherping, director of technology for Polk County Schools. “The awards ceremony will be a test run. Hopefully, we’ll work out the kinks and be ready to go Friday night.”

The video streams will be pre-sented by the high school’s video technology class, which has re-corded graduation ceremonies and sold them on DVD as fundraisers for the past several years. Audi-ences will not be able to record the live stream on their comput-ers, but DVDs will once again be available for purchase through the video technology class.

Scherping said the broadcast comes at no cost to the school system. It is being presented through a link to ustream.com, a site akin to youtube.com that allows users to stream live events through the site’s servers.

While this is the first event to be broadcast by the school system, it could be the first of

many events to make its way to interested audiences via the Internet.

“We’re always trying to be forward thinking in terms of what we can do with technology,” said Stafford.

Scherping said there are no pause or rewind buttons on the live streams.

“It’s live, so if you’re 10 minutes late, you’ve missed the first 10 minutes,” Scherping said. “There’s no way to go back or anything.”

During the broadcast, viewers will be polled about the quality of the video. Contact Scherping with questions about the broadcasts at (828) 894-3051 or by email at [email protected].

Art walk at Upstairs Artspace June 13“raT on Wheels” By ripp smiTh

A “Walk & Talk” tour of new exhibits at the Upstairs Artspace is scheduled for Sunday, June 13, at 2 p.m. The exhibits are “Materials, Unexpected” and “Rat: Bot.”

Several “Materials” artists will talk informally about this “environmentally correct” show that emphasizes art made with recycled and found objects and organic matter. Some unusual materials incorporated into the art are sprinkler heads, pig feeder covers, bottlecaps, tea bags, bees, birdseed, pantyhose, kudzu and scrap metal.

“Rat: Bot” created a buzz at the opening last week. The exhibit presents eight larger-than-life-size rats by the in-novative sculptor Ripp Smith. Smith plans to talk about why he focused on rats for a provoca-tive series and demonstrate how he created the sculpture from plywood.

In its 12th year, “Walk & Talk” features artists in current exhibits talking about their art work - what inspires them, work habits, and various techniques, materials and equipment they use to make art. Sometimes they share life stories and personal world views as they apply to what they make.

The program lasts one hour and is free to the public. Call 828-859-2828 for information.

Big Brothers, Sisters board members neededTo the Editor:

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Polk County is entering its 8th fiscal year. The national organization, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, is over 100 years old, and we are a branch of BBBS of Western North Carolina. As a county branch office we have an Advisory Council which is responsible for the development of financial support and represents BBBS in the community.

What does this mean? Our Advi-sory Council sets goals and guides the policies of our local branch, whereas major organizational deci-sions are made at the regional Board level. The Council meets on the first Tuesday of the month beginning at 5:30 or 6 pm at Tryon Town Hall for 10 months of the year. The meetings last about an hour.

What do we do? We have one major fund raiser, Bowl for Kids’ Sake, which takes place in February. It’s kind of like a 2 hour walk-a-thon, only with teams bowling. Several

Letter to the Editorteams use gutter guards, since it’s all for fun. We have local and re-gional businesses as sponsors, and the teams raise money by getting pledges. Additionally, we hold a Hunter Pace in May and send out a card requesting donations in October. Council members are not asked to contribute anything other than some time and energy!

As a children’s mentoring or-ganization we are occasionally approached to be a part of other activities. Our council discusses and makes the decision involving these proposals. We also help plan an an-nual Christmas party and other group activities for our “Littles.”

We currently have several open-ings on our Advisory Council. It is fun and rewarding to be a part of Big Brothers Big Sisters. If you feel like you are a likely candidate, or know of someone else who may be inter-ested and appropriate to help serve and support our growing mentoring programs, please let us know. We appreciate your help in developing our Advisory Council into a vibrant support system for our unique men-toring services for children in Polk County and the Landrum area.

White Oaks served as the setting for a Southern Garden Party with His Royal Highness The Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, to honor the 2010 Duke of Edinburgh’s Award recipients. Parkinson, who is of English descent, hoped the Prince would visit Smith Phayer Hospice House in Landrum to illustrate hospice care, originally developed in England by Dame Cecily Saunders, in the United States. Robert was pleased to be part of the festivities, even if he didn’t get a chance to talk to the Prince and tell him “how we do things here in the states.”

Kudzu, bottlecaps make art in Upstairs Artspace shows

The new exhibits at the Up-stairs Artspace are not typical art shows. “Materials, Unexpected” presents 17 artists with an envi-ronmental conscience in their use of recycled and found objects, organic matter, and renewable resources in the creative process. A second exhibit, “Rat: Bot,” features new sculpture by Ripp Smith in which the lowly rat ac-quires the status of fine art.

A first glimpse of “Materials” is in the vacant lot next to Bill’s Jewelers where Jeff “Mr. Jeff” Menzer has installed a fanciful fence made with scrap metal. Inside the gallery Menzer’s art features more metal parts, plus rope, string, sticks, marbles and “stuff in your pocket.”

ICC sets deadline of July 15 for financial aid applications

Isothermal Community Col-lege has set a July 15 deadline for financial aid applications.

With record enrollment and changes to the way Pell Grants can be dispersed, the college said having a deadline in place this year was imperative.

In years past it has been pos-sible for a student to come in two weeks prior to registration to apply for aid, but the amount of paperwork has increased and the college says it needs more time.

The number of Individual Student Information Records, the files sent back by the government to a college when a student fills out a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) received for the 2008-2009 award year was 3,913. For the 2009-2010 year, it was 5,028. And through

the end of May, the number of ISIRs received by the financial aid office was 2,286.

Isothermal’s Message on fi-nancial aid deadline is as fol-lows:

In order for your aid to be available for you to use for the 2010 fall semester, both your financial aid file and admissions file must be

complete by 4:30 pm on Thursday, July 15, 2010. It is the student’s responsibility to insure their paperwork is complete.

A completed financial aid file means that a 2010-2011 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) has been submitted and received by the college, and all requested paperwork has been turned in.

The student must also have a

complete admissions file which normally means they have com-pleted an admissions applica-tion, their official high school transcript or official GED scores have been received, all college transcripts have been received, and they have taken or had the placement test waived.

Students should check with the Admissions Office for fur-ther requirements.

Students who complete their file after the deadline will have their financial aid file reviewed and processed after the semester has begun.

These students will be ex-pected to pay for their classes on their own and may be reim-bursed during the semester, if they are eligible for financial aid.

are young artists Jan Parker and Bridget Conn. Parker has a wall piece made with kudzu vines, while Conn exhibits assemblages of dirt, bees, birdseed, herbs, tea bags, spices and cookie dough. The ultimate organic art is by An-nie “Mossin’ Annie” Martin who is well known for her moss, fern and lichen compositions.

Cleaning up the environment is on the mind of David Edgar, whose totems and wall hangings are made with colorful plastic bottlecaps and tin cans. Also into recycling are Donna Price and Bryant Holsenbeck. Price’s pieces using sprinkler heads, pig feeder covers and flea market bottles often carry a message. Old CDs, neckties and fabric remnants become birds, rabbits and a fawn

in the hands of Holsenbeck.Other artists are David Chatt,

Mary Engel, Michael Hatch, Molly Right and Zoe Siegler.

Also in “Materials” are art-ists from the Energy Xchange in Burnsville, N.C. The nonprofit organization utilizes landfill gas to power furnaces for making ceramic and glass art. Currently, this source of alternative energy is serving the creative process of Aaron Baigelman, Micah Cain, Lisa Gluckin, Ian Kessler-Gowell and Lindsay Rogers.

The popular “Walk & Talk” art tour is Sunday, June 13, at 2 p.m. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Call 828-859-2828 for information.

Advice for Young Adults

by Andy Millard

Not everything that counts can be counted, and not ev-erything that can be counted counts.

—Albert EinsteinYou can’t buy happiness, but

you can rent financial security—and financial security can re-lieve a lot of stress.

Let’s put money into per-spective for a moment. You need it to pay the bills, put gas in your car and food on the table. Money also gives you choices.

With enough money, you can choose how to spend your time: Stay at home with your loved ones. Lie on a beach. Hike the Appalachian Trail. Volunteer for religious or community causes. Play golf. Climb Mount Ever-est. Write a book. Without the dough to make those choices,

you’re limited.But it is also possible to be

poor and happy at the same time. And many people of means are miserable despite their wealth.

There’s a reason for this phenomenon, and it involves the importance that we assign to money. For some people, money is the most important thing

in their lives. They become obsessed with living an afflu-ent lifestyle. They must have

the fanciest car, the biggest house in the most exclusive neighborhood, and all the other trappings of wealth. The pursuit and preservation of wealth be-comes the central objective of their lives.

Have you ever known a teacher who was great at what she did and was clearly a happy person? Of course you have.

Lesson 77: Money is importantThe teaching profession is not known for its high salaries; in most states, it’s hard to make a lot of money as a teacher. But you can make enough, and many teachers give up the opportunity to earn more money elsewhere because they love children and derive personal satisfaction from making a difference in the lives of kids. The same is true of countless men and women in many other vocations as well.

In fact, I have known sev-eral good and genuinely happy people who are quite poor. They work at menial jobs and struggle just to make ends meet every month, but they are content and seemingly carefree.

The bottom line here is that while money is a necessity, it’s not a cure for unhappiness. Still, all things being equal, I’d rather be rich than poor, and I suspect you would, too.

Giardini offers gardening, and cooking day camp for kids

There’s a lot of stories in the news lately about the myriad problems of increased childhood obesity.

There are also a lot of stories about the maladies of our national agricultural system, the local food movement, the growing organic movement, the lack of nutrition in our school lunch program and other related food based topics. How are they all related, and how do we try to make sense of it all when we look ahead to our children’s future?

This summer at Giardini Gar-dens, we’ll be taking kids ages 8 –12 on a journey back to real food. It has been shown over and over again that when kids are able to have a hands-on experience of where their food comes from and

The Tryon Tailgate Market is held on Thursdays from 4 to 6:30 p.m. It began May 6 and will run through October 28. (photo by Katie Byrd)

• Rev. Davis (ConTinueD from page 15)how to prepare their own meals, they become empowered to make healthier and better deci-sions in all their life choices.

At the Knowing & Growing summer day camps, children will not only learn about how food is grown, but everyday they will also learn how to pre-pare and cook their own meals. From making their own pizza crusts and breads, rolling their own pasta, patting out their own tortillas, to putting together full healthy meals with vegetables just picked from the organic gardens, your children will be

fully involved in learning about healthy, delicious food that is full of flavor and delicious to eat.

And there won’t be a package to open or a can in sight! Just real, honest, good food that’s good for you.

There will be four separate one-week sessions to attend this summer:

June 28 – July 2July 5 – July 9July 19 – July 23July 26 – July 30Camps will run from 9 a.m.

until 2:30 p.m. and will include lunch and drinks every day. The kids will have their own special

kids garden to learn in, as well as their own lofted area in the new outdoor pavilion, and a full playground in the woods by the creek.

All mentors and teachers are adult professionals who will bring a wealth of knowledge, experience and maturity along with plenty of fun to the experi-ence. Kids will be bringing home recipes and crafts and things to plant at home along with a lot of new ideas on how they can con-tribute to the family menus.

For further information or to register for camp: Call Mary Lyth at 817-3727 or email to [email protected]
