Polk County hunters will of-ficially have two more weeks of deer hunting this year as the N.C. Wildlife Commission approved changing Polk County from the conservative deer season clas-sification to the moderate clas-sification.
N.C. Wildlife Commission’s Legislative Liaison Chris Dillon alerted N.C. Rep. David Guice’s office of the change on Jan. 3.

the Rules Review Commission, and the time period for letters of objection has passed.”
The Polk County Board of Commissioners approved a resolu-tion on Oct. 3, 2011 recommending the state change the county’s deer season classification. The change means that Polk County’s gun season is now the same as that in Rutherford and Cleveland coun-ties, with the gun season beginning on Nov. 21 and ending now on Dec. 24 instead of the previous end date of Dec. 10.
W i t h t h e change to the moderate clas-sification, Polk gun hunters can take either sex of deer from Nov. 21 to Nov. 26 and f rom Dec. 19 to Dec. 24. During all other dates of gun hunting season, hunters can shoot only bucks.
Deer season begins the Monday following Labor Day in September for archery hunters. Bow hunters can kill either sex during archery season, but must abide by gun hunter rules during gun hunting season.
N.C. Rules Biologist Kate Pip-ken said the proposal was reviewed by the wildlife commission’s in-ternal deer committee and given a positive biological score. From there the proposal was reviewed by staff and presented to the Wildlife Resource Commission board. The board voted in July to open the pro-posal for public comment through electronic means and at nine public hearings held across the state in September 2011. The commis-sion reviewed public comments in October 2011, Pipken said, and the proposal was reviewed and approved by the Rules Review Commission in December 2011.
“No local bill was needed at the outset because the WRC has the authority to adopt rules regu-lating hunting seasons,” Pipken said. “There is a provision in the Administrative Procedures Act, however, under which the Rules
Review Commission must refer a rule change to the legislature for review if the Rules Review Commission has received 10 or more letters from the public explic-itly requesting such a review…. The Rules Review Commission received no letters requesting a legislative review of the changes to the Polk County season.”
Polk County Commissioner Ted Owens originally requested that Polk County ask for the change. Owens and others said Polk County is known to have many deer and Owens questioned
why Polk Coun-ty was classified so differently from neighbor-ing counties.
Polk’s for-mer conserva-tive classifica-t ion was the same as that in Mitchell, Av-ery, Caldwell, McDowell and
Burke counties. Henderson, Tran-sylvania, Buncombe, Haywood and Madison counties are classi-fied as introductory season, with a small portion on the Buncombe/Henderson border in the maximum season classification.
Several local hunters attended Polk County’s October meeting to speak in favor of the deer season extension.
Rob McComas said many Polk residents refer to deer as a nuisance for eating shrubs and flowers and also mentioned disease due to overpopulation. He said Polk County is known as the place to hunt by hunters in other parts of the state and those hunters stay in hotels, eat in restaurants and get gasoline in Polk County.
Former N.C. Wildlife Resource Officer John Blanton, of Polk County, attended Polk’s October meeting and said in the previous season 905 deer were checked in by hunters in Polk County, which didn’t include deer taken by mo-tor vehicles. Blanton also said a state trooper told him 30 to 40 percent of vehicle accidents he investigates involve a deer.
“I’d recommend these deer be taken by hunters to feed families,” Blanton told commissioners.

Late mail has some Mill Spring residents frustratedby Samantha Hurst
Mill Spring resident Stan Mazur said he’s had quite a bit of trouble getting his usual mailings on time from the post office.
Mazur complained that his Costco coupons recently arrived the day after they expired, and on one day he received three late issues of what should be a weekly magazine.
Mazur said he called the Columbus Post Office, which now coordi -nates all of the carriers for Mill Spring mail , and said they blamed it on a national prob-lem.
Scott Smith, at the Columbus Post Office, said a national prob-lem is exactly the issue.
“It’s happening with our plant facilities in terms of when they send the mail to us,” Smith said. “They’re trying to change the networks within the postal sys-tem – that’s something that has been talked about nationally.”
According to Smith and na-tional media reports in early December, the service has also filed to change one-day delivery to a two- or three-day delivery as early as this spring, in order to avoid bankruptcy. The postal service has also made plans to try to close many smaller offices.
Mazur said he and his wife
didn’t notice a problem until af-ter the mail was rerouted to the Columbus Post Office instead of through the Mill Spring Office.
In June 2011, the Polk County Board of Commissioners approved a resolution in favor of keeping the Mill Spring post office open even though the United States Postal Service said it had no plans of closing the location. The Polk
County Board of Commission-ers approved the resolution in re-sponse to more than 1,500 resi-dents signing a petition with the same aim.
At the same June BOC meet-
ing, Judy Arledge said Mill Spring area residents wanted to keep their post office full service. She said 1,629 deliveries were made daily and carriers at the time drove 230 miles in making those drops.
As an avid stamp collector, Ma-zur said he purposely pays his bills and sends other correspondence through the mail in an effort to support the postal system.
“If they are complaining about losing customers, why are they messing with good customers?” Mazur said. “I don’t recall ever having this problem before.”
The Mill Spring Post Office serves the areas of Mill Spring, Sunny View/Coopers Gap, Pea Ridge and White Oak. It was es-tablished in 1871.

So far, Walters has done a walk-through with engineers, completed measured drawings and had a code meeting with Spartanburg County.
“The rest is a matter of refin-ing the design,” Walters said.
Some of the design modi-fications have also been ac-complished. Council asked

that the planned stage and walkway canopy be pulled closer to the depot. That has been done and a removable awning for the stage has been added to plans.
The rear of the building, meanwhile, now includes steps and a ramp for an additional access point and Walters spoke of an addition of two small storage rooms and an additional restroom.
Councilman Jon Matheis said he would like to make

sure the depot design includes a state-of-the-art multimedia setup that will take the town 10-15 years into the future.
The other sticking point on design plans is that of the in-terior ceiling. Walters created two options for the ceiling, one of which would be completely open with exposed ductwork and another in which the duct-work will be hidden.
Councilman Billy Inman and Don Smith said they both would like to see what the cost dif-ferences would be for various ceiling options before making a final decision.

Polk County!
As I write this it is Jan. 6, the day of the Epiphany and the revelation of the Christ-child to the Gentiles in the persons of the Magi. The season of Christmas has ended and a new calendar year and Christian year are beginning in celebration of the Incarnation.
In the English language the word “epiphany” also means “a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential mean-ing of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely or commonplace occurrence or experience” (dictionary.com). Under that rubric, there are not any fire-works or bells and whistles, no kings and camels on the
doorstep and rarely anything other than a quiet “ah-hah!” But those ah-hah moments can be profound and life changing.
Well, I have had an “ah-hah” moment.
My epiphany? Brace yourselves… (deep breath here) – I am not indispens-able. The fact of the matter is that the world has rocked along quite nicely these past few weeks as I have conva-lesced at home from a bout with atrial fibrillation. (I am healing nicely and will be fine. Thank you for asking.)
Things became difficult right after Thanksgiving and when the cardiologist
put me on medical leave 10 days before Christmas all my obsessive-compulsive A-type controller genes went plumb berserk. I had not missed a Christmas Eve worship service in 35 years. How was Holy Cross going to manage without me? Me!
In short, they did quite nicely, I hear. God was present, the worship was powerful and the music was sublime thanks to the skills of the Holy Cross staff, lay leaders, deacon Mari-lyn Walters and substitute priests Beth Ely and Walter Bryan.
The reason all this is an important epiphany for me rests in the fact that none of
An ‘ah-hah’ moment • Epiphany(continued from page 8)

us is indispensable; it just takes some of us longer to catch on to that fact. Most of us have control issues of one sort or another, but being freed from the need to be in control can be a blessing of the most gracious sort. We can give things over to others, and while they might not handle them in the same way we would, things get done well anyway.
That is the central mes-sage of the celebration of Epiphany in the Church. God became Incarnate in the person of Jesus, son of Mary by the Holy Spirit, to relieve us of the burden of having to be good enough all on our own. That gift was given to the Jewish shepherds on the night of
his birth, and sometime later it was revealed to the entire world via the Magi. In the birth of the Christ-child we have been presented with an epiphany – we do not have to try to do it all on our own. God is with us. God is for us. God in Christ will bear our burdens when we cannot, if we will only let him.
I have a couple of weeks of further forced inactivity, and I will admit that it chafes something fierce. However, the relief comes in the re-alization that all things do not all depend on me alone. Thanks be to God.

‘Kiss of the Mermaid’
Tryon artist Pauline Ross recently won a sculpture contest on Fine Art America. She will receive six months’ exposure in the UK publication “Competi-tion Zone.”
Ross, who has been a member of FAA for the last three years, is originally from Rockland County, N.Y. She relocated to Virginia in 1998 and then in 2011 to Tryon. Originally a professional photographer, retoucher and restoration artist for more than 30 years, she now works in acrylics, watercolors, oils, woodcarving, pyrographics and painting on glassware.
The winning sculpture, “Kiss of the Mermaid,” was originally a cedar tree that was pulled down in Ross’s yard.
“I couldn’t resist the smell
and the hunk of wood staring at me. So I started to carve with in-tentions of creating a mermaid,”
“Kiss of the Mermaid,” by Pauline Ross, of Tryon, recently won a sculpture contest on Fine Art America. (photo submitted by Pauline Ross)
Ross said.The sculpture is not for sale.

Award to be presented Saturday at MLK Jr. event
The Thermal Belt Friendship Council recently announced that Kari Malkki of Polk County High School is this year’s recipient of the Martin Luther King Jr. Schol-arship. Malkki will be recognized Saturday, Jan. 14 at the Friendship Council’s annual MLK Jr. Com-memoration celebration, which will be held at the Tryon Fine Arts Center at 7 p.m.
Each year, the Friendship Council sponsors a $500 scholar-ship for a graduating high school student who demonstrates a com-mitment to the community, to school and to diversity. As part of the application, students are asked to discuss how their life promotes social and racial equality and di-versity issues in their community. Malkki’s essay discussed not only her role in the local community but also her time living in Nam-pula, Mozambique.
She said, “We didn’t speak the language, Portuguese, nor did we
share the prevalent religion, Islam. While we were not wealthy by Western standards, in the world’s seventh poorest country, we were rich.”
Malkki discussed growing up as a Finnish/Ugandan girl, saying, “To the world around me, I’ve been black, white and somehow La-tino; rich, poor and somewhere in between; a city girl, a red-neck and a part of a village con-nected by red-dirt roads.”
Malkki also shared how the attacks on 9/11 have impacted the lives of people throughout the world, but ended her essay by saying, “Never have I found a place where I blend in, but in all of these places I’ve manage to fit in, and to learn from the com-munities of which I become a part. Differences in color, class, sexual
orientation or faith are issues I have grown up disregarding, and to create a world in which equal-ity and social justice prevail, this is a perspective that everyone must share. Gandhi insisted, and
I firmly believe that the solu-tion to the cri-sis of inequality throughout the world is for one to be the change one wishes to see.”
Members of the scholarship committee com-mented that it was a difficult selection this
year because of the quality of applications that were received; however, Malkki’s essay helped her rise to the top.
Dr. Joseph Fox, Friendship Council president, said, “Kari is living the mission of the Friend-ship Council by bridging the racial and cultural gaps between diverse populations.”
Thermal Belt Friendship Council was born in April 1986, as a result of concerned black and white citizens’ response to a Ku Klux Klan planned march in downtown Tryon. Local citizens first met in a private home to discuss the issue, and then held a public meeting at the Congrega-tional Church. The meeting was attended by a N.C. State Bureau of Investigation agent who stated that the best way to deal with the Klan was to ignore the march. Most people stayed home, shop owners closed their doors and the march was not a success.
Black and white citizens began meeting at each other’s homes over the years to spread unity within the community. Today, the Friendship Council members meet monthly at local restaurants and every second Tuesday at Roseland Community Center at 7 p.m.

Tryon artist and gallery own-er Rich Nelson will speak about his work at the Lanier Library on Tuesday, Jan. 17 at noon. The program is free and everyone is welcome.
Nelson earned his B.F.A. at the College of Creative Stud-ies in Detroit, Mich. in 1988 and there developed his love of painting, drawing, figurative art and art history. Since then he has gained a strong reputa-tion as a portrait and landscape artist, having completed more than 500 portraits and numerous other paintings.
He has had a number of one-person shows and won several awards, including being a finalist in the 2010 Artist’s Magazine annual art competi-tion, first place in the Portrait Society of America’s 2009 competition and Best Portfolio in that society’s 2003 and 2004 competitions.
In describing his work, Nel-son said, “I work toward ‘paint-erly realism’ – good drawing and composition, rendered with strong natural color, in such a way that you can still ‘sense’ or ‘feel’ the paint. The effect of this process is that the subject begins to artfully reveal itself to me and, hopefully, the viewer.
“Though portraiture is a ma-jor part of my career, I also love
painting landscape, still life and figurative gallery pieces. I am endlessly fascinated by people, places and things and consider it a privilege and a challenge to capture some aspect of their essence on canvas.”
Nelson and his wife, Kim, own and run Skyuka Fine Art, a gallery in Tryon that has re-cently completed its first year of operation. The gallery features both local and nationally-known artists and participates in Tryon
gallery strolls and other events, including lectures and perfor-mances.
The event at the Lanier Li-brary is part of the library’s Brown Bag Lunch series, held at noon on the third Tuesday of every month, to which the audi-ence is encouraged to bring a bagged lunch if desired. Coffee is provided, the program is free and everyone is welcome.
