New sheriff car on hold because of high costs for housing female inmates outside of Polk Countyby Leah Justice

Polk County Sheriff Donald Hill asked commissioners to hold off on giving approval for a new patrol car because of his fear that bills for housing female inmates may cut into his budget.

The Polk County Board of Commissioners met Monday, March 19 and discussed the purchase of a new patrol car. Although Polk County Man-ager Ryan Whitson said the county had the funds to make the purchase regardless of the sheriff’s office budget, Sheriff Hill said he’d be more comfort-able with the purchase after he reviews his budget, specifically the most recent female inmate bill.

Polk County does not house female inmates in its jail. Instead, if possible, the coun-ty sends them to Rutherford County, which houses them for free. Late-ly, however, Rutherford has not had enough beds, so Polk has had to pay Henderson and other counties to board female inmates in their jails. In more serious cas-es, Polk pays the N.C. Depart-ment of Corrections (DOC) to house female inmates. Hill said currently seven Polk County female inmates are in custody. One of them, who is housed at the DOC, is pregnant.

Hill said he was just in-

formed that he is running out of safe keep money. He said the last bill, which covers a few months, was $6,000 to $7,000. It costs Polk $45 a day to

house female i n m a t e s i n most places, Hill said.

W h i t s o n said the sher-iff’s office has a new position

for traffic safety through a grant and is in need of a vehicle. The sheriff’s office has approxi-mately $12,000 to use for the vehicle, and the other half can be paid for out of drug seizure money. The county plans to purchase a new Ford Taurus In-terceptor, estimated at $23,714.

Some commissioners want-ed to go ahead with the pur-chase, because delivery of a new vehicle would not be pos-sible until around June.

“I wouldn’t mind just order-ing it and if we don’t have the money we can take it out of next year’s budget,” said com-missioner Tom Pack.

Whitson said the county could take the money out of fuel contingency for the time being, as only a couple of de-partments are over on fuel bud-

gets and the county budgeted $90,000 in fuel contingency.

Commissioner Cindy Walk-er said the sheriff had just asked the county to hold off; she asked commissioners to do what he requested and wait until next month to decide.

“I’m glad we can support getting a car but let’s let him get a hold on his finances,” Walker said. “I look favorably on it but would like to let him do what he’s asked.”

Hill said he would feel more comfortable knowing he has the money because he doesn’t want to commit to something then have to come back to the board and ask for more money. He also said there’s a possibil-ity he can fund a new car com-pletely with federal seizure money depending on when the sheriff’s office receives it.

Whitson also said he is not too worried about the bills for housing female inmates, because housing them in Polk County would cost much more than housing them elsewhere.

“We’re a whole lot better off not housing female prisoners,” Whitson said.

Commissioners plan to re-sume discussions regarding a new car in April.

“I’m glad we can support getting a car but let’s let [Sheriff Hill] get a hold on his finances.”

‘Autism 101’ program at Polk County Public Library tomorrowOn Tuesday, March 27 at 6

p.m., the Polk County/Foothills Area Parent Support Group will host a free, special event to help kick off April’s Autism Aware-ness Month. The program will be held in the community room of the Polk County Public Library (Columbus).

Jean Alvarez, from the North Carolina Autism Society in Ashe-ville, will discuss the basics of autism, including a general

overview of autism spectrum disorder. Through the use of examples, personal stories and videos, participants will gain a better understanding of the pri-mary characteristics of autism, how people can be affected, as well as strategies for improving interactions.

Autism is a condition charac-terized by impairments in com-munication, social interaction and stereotyped or repetitive

behaviors. Autism, Asperger’s syndrome and PPD-NOS can dramatically affect a child’s life, as well as that of their families, schools, friends and the wider community. No one knows with certainty what has caused autism prevalence--which has increased roughly ten-fold in the past 40 years. Early diagnosis, therapy and behavioral strategies can make a significant difference in the long term.

The Polk County/Foothills Area Parent Support Group is sponsored by the Autism Society of North Carolina. Meetings offer an educational focus in addition to support for one another.

For information regarding the parent support group, con-tact Tracey Daniels at [email protected], with “support group” in the subject line.

begin installing water taps to new customers along the new water line. The water line runs along approximately 7 miles of Howard Gap Road between Tryon and Sa-luda. Tryon can install taps along about half of the line and Saluda can install taps on the other half.

Columbus also has owner-ship in the line and is connected through a valve installed on a wa-

ter line already shared between Columbus and Tryon. Previ-ously, Tryon could send water to Columbus, but Columbus could not send water to Tryon. The new valve, along with a booster pump installed along Hwy. 108, across from the Old 19 intersection, will allow Tryon and Columbus to exchange water.

The towns decided a few years ago to connect their water sources in order to provide back-up for one another after a severe

drought forced the towns to enact mandatory water restrictions for customers.

The line was made possible through a $1.73 million grant that the towns shared from the N.C. Rural Center and a $300,000 grant from the Appalachian Re-gional Commission. Each town will also share the financing of $1.43 million obtained from the North Carolina Drinking Water Fund, which is a no-interest loan.

The project included the con-

struction of the water line, the construction of an 85,000-gallon water storage tank and the valve and booster pump to connect Columbus.

Saluda plans to add an addi-tional 18 customers to its water system on the new line. Tryon expects to add about six new customers to its system with potential in the future to add as many as 12.

The public is welcome to at-tend tomorrow’s meeting.

Classical guitarist Bruckschto perform at Holy Cross

Described as “a lyrical, so-phisticated performer whose evi-dent desire to communicate is matched by technical prowess,” Amy Brucksch will perform a re-cital, “A Season of Song,” Wednes-day, March 28 at noon at Holy Cross Episcopal Church in Tryon.

Health Talk at LaurelHurst tomorrow

Have you ever wanted to sing or play music in front of a crowd? Do you have some friends who would like to per-form some live music in Tryon? Does an evening of hearing different musicians jamming together sound like fun?

The Tryon Downtown De-velopment Association (TDDA) has announced a new event for this year’s April Fools Festival: the April Fool’s Jam. It will be held at Sunnydale (next to IGA) on Friday, March 30 from 7 to 10 p.m.

The Trophy Husbands will play opening and closing sets and will provide musical equip-ment for musicians to sign up and “jam.” Here’s how it will work. All of the gear will be there: PA system, guitar and bass amps, a digital keyboard. Just bring your instrument, and drummers will want to bring snare, cymbals and sticks. If there is something that you feel is necessary to perform (such

as an amp), bring it along. The goal is to keep set-up time to a minimum and the jamming to a maximum.

There will be a sign-up sheet at the door, and groups of up to six players will be assigned times to play their 20-minute sets. Each group will be given a five-minute signal when their time is running out, and they will be expected to stop after their 20 minutes. Once you are assigned a time, be sure that everyone is present 30 minutes before your set. Organizers said they will try to have no more than 10 minutes between groups.

So put the evening of Friday, March 30 on your calendar and start practicing.

If you have any questions, contact Rich Nelson at 828-817-3784 or [email protected].

WHERE WE WORKAn in-depth look at an area business

Tryon Arts and Crafts School will host a two-day knife-making workshop on Saturday, April 7 and Sunday, April 8 (Easter weekend), with bladesmith Chuck Brooks. In this workshop, students will forge a knife blade, start a wood handle and create at least one fully- functional tool. They will learn to forge, heat treat, temper and grind knife blades that can be attached to a bone, antler or wood handle. The goal of this class is to bring students to a basic understanding of knife design and workmanship in the forge.

Chuck Brooks made his first usable knife in 1981 from a power hacksaw blade, when he wanted to learn to make a functional knife with some design appeal. At the time, there were no instructors in blade making to be found. In 1998, 17 years later, he took his first blade

class from Karl Schroen in Califor-nia. In 1999, Chuck attended an in-troduction to bladesmithing class at the American Bladesmith Society School located in Old Washington, Ark. He then added the handles and guards class. Brooks has taken several mastersmith workshops for specialized training, learning to make Damascus steel, leather sheaths and fancy file work on the spine of the blade.

Brooks sells his knives at sev-eral shows around the country. This workshop falls on Easter weekend because this was the only time Tryon Arts and Crafts School could host it before next fall because of his heavy schedule.

The workshop will run from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday. Students need to bring lunch, beverages, snacks, protec-tive eyewear, leather gloves and

earplugs (if desired) and should wear leather shoes and old clothes.

Advance registration is re-quired. For more information about the instructor or workshop, including tuition and supply costs, contact Tryon Arts & Crafts at 828-859-8323 or [email protected]. More details and

examples of projects are available on the Tryon Arts and Crafts web-site, www.TryonArtsandCrafts.org.

Tryon Arts and Crafts is a non-profit crafts school located at 373 Harmon Field Road in Tryon.

The half-day program will follow a Montessori curricu-lum designed to serve the unique intellectual, social, emotional and physical needs of children 2½ to 6 years old.

Al l i son Daugher ty, the school’s founder and lead teach-er, said she was inspired by her own experience attending a Montessori school as a child and by observing her mother’s Montessori classroom later on. After completing her primary training at the Montessori Insti-tute Northwest in Portland, Ore., Daugherty earned a master’s degree in Montessori Primary Education from Loyola College in Baltimore, Md. and is certified by The Association Montessori Internationale (AMI), which was founded in 1929 by Dr. Maria Montessori.

Dr. Maria Montessori was an Italian physician and educator who began working with children

in the late 19th century. Through observation, she developed a new approach to education that fol-lowed the child’s natural path of development, emphasizing inde-pendent discovery in a mixed-age environment and the freedom for each child to choose their own activities.

Dr. Montessori said she be-lieved the ultimate goal of edu-cation should be the creation of a peaceful world. As a six-time nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize, she saw in children a natural tendency to love, to reach out to and respect other human beings and to act as stewards of the natural world. Today, Mon-tessori is a household name, and there are about 20,000 Montes-sori schools in operation across the globe.

At A Thousand Forests, chil-dren will explore nine areas of curriculum: practical life, senso-rial, language, mathematics, art, music, science, geography and peace education. The primary program is designed to foster confidence, compassion and independence by providing a child-centered learning environ-ment filled with concrete, self-correcting materials that meet the developmental needs of the

young child. The new school is currently

under construction in Top of the Morning, the Saluda music store of Allison’s mother, Jan Daugh-erty. In addition to closing her retail shop to make way for the school, Jan is selling her entire inventory of musical instruments at reduced prices, with proceeds going to support A Thousand Forests. Jan will continue to teach music lessons in the community after the store has closed and will offer Suzuki violin lessons to enrolled students during school hours in the fall.

A free information session will be held on Sunday, April 15 at 4 p.m. at the school, located on Main Street/Hwy. 176 in Saluda,

across from the Green River Bar-B-Que. The session will offer parents the opportunity to learn more about the school and the Montessori Method. An open house for prospective students and their families will be scheduled closer to the start of the school year after construc-tion is complete.

Space is limited to 12 stu-dents for the upcoming year, and enrollment is currently under way. To register for the infor-mation session or to learn more about the school, call 828-606-2899, email [email protected] or visit athousand-forestsmontessori.com.

Barton of Pro Physical Therapy completes training courseKyle Barton, physical thera-

pist assistant at Pro Physical Therapy in Columbus, recently attended a four-day course for manual therapy techniques for the peripheral joints, including the upper and lower extremities.

Common types of orthopedic manual therapies include pas-sive stretching, mobilization and manipulation. Studies have

shown that when manual therapy is added to a supervised exercise program, patients have a 70-per-cent decrease in pain, 16-percent increase in strength and 35-per-cent increase in overall function.

According to the studies, periph-eral joint mobilizations are safer than spinal mobilizations, thus a wider range of patients will benefit from these manual techniques.

Barton has worked with Pro Physical Therapy since he gradu-ated from Greenville Tech in 2008 as a physical therapist as-sistant. He also leads the aquatic therapy program on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

For further information, con-tact Pro at 828-894-0277.

Business sponsors contribute to Tryon April Fool’s FestivalWhen the Tryon April Fool’s

Festival kicks off on Friday, March 30, it will be because of sponsorship of the first-ever Fool’s Jam by Costco, a national retailer operating in Spartanburg, and Main Street Financial, with offices in Tryon and Forest City.

The Jam starts at 7 p.m. at Sunnydale, with The Trophy Hus-bands playing the first set, before regional musicians join up to form their own groups.

On Saturday, March 31, Tryon IGA presents a new race, the TP Trot, which involves grocery carts charging toward the finish line while team members lob projectile rolls of toilet paper into the carts.

Stott’s Ford takes the lead this year in sponsoring the Outhouse Races, the key event of the festival since its inception in 2006. Stott’s will also provide a parade and showing of classic Mustangs for the enjoyment of festival-goers.

On Saturday at 4 p.m., Tryon

House Apparel and Thompson Landscape Professionals present the Trashion Show, a runway show of apparel and accessories made exclusively from recycled materials.

The crowning event of the 2012 April Fool’s Festival, the Masquerade Fool’s Ball, is spon-sored by Owens Pharmacy and Vines & Stuff, both of Tryon, and will feature music by the Carburetors at 7 p.m. at historic Sunnydale.

Festival organizers say without the support of businesses and the many volunteers, the festival would not be able to grow and attract more people to Tryon for the festival weekend.

The festival is organized each year by the Tryon Downtown De-velopment Association, a 501c3 non-profit dedicated to the revital-ization of downtown Tryon.

Hrobak puts away third perfect gameby Samantha Hurst

The Lady Wolverines of Polk County redeemed themselves after their loss to Madison this week with a dominating defeat over Avery County 9-0 Thurs-day, March 22.

Highlighting the evening was the third perfect game for Jamie Hrobak and solid hitting across the board for PCHS, said Softball Head Coach Jeff Wilson.

Alyssa Montgomery ended the evening with two hits and two runs, while Yancey Pace went 3-2, Chelsea Kelly 2-1

and Katie Ruff 2-1. On defense, Wilson said Shalyn Brown made a 20-yard run in to grab a hit, while freshman catcher Ashley Kropp pulled a solid game for the 10th time in this season.

PCHS currently stands at 9-1 overall and 2-1 in the Western Highlands Conference.

The junior varsity softball team, meanwhile, faced North Henderson High School at home Thursday night. JV had a 3-1 record heading into this game and showed they were ready to play early on in the evening, but lost steam as the game went on letting the Knights come back for the win 10-6. Pitching for

Lady Wolverines varsity softball grabs another win March 22

JV were Carolyn Couch, Leanne Wallace and Kristin Wade.

Mackenzie McCool has con-

sistently been the top hitter for the JV squad so far this season, Wilson said.

Polk County High School Girls Track competed in the 17th Annual WHKP Relays hosted by North Henderson High.

Polk athletes Rebecca Elliott, Autumn Miller, Mary Kate Chris-tiansen and Casey McDowell ran 4:08.66 breaking the 4 x 400

Meter Relay meet record 4:12.94 set by TC Roberson in 2009.

The same four ladies also won the 1600 meter sprint medley re-lay (200m, 200m, 400m, 800m) in 4:35.

PAC assists botanist Zack Murrellin study on dwarf-flowered heartleaf

PAC’s land protection specialist, Pam Torlina, took Dr. Zack Murrell to several sites in Polk County where the state and federal-listed (threatened) dwarf - f lowered hear t leaf (Hexastylis naniflora) grows, some of which are on PAC-protected properties. Murrell is associate professor, curator of the herbarium and director of the SouthEast Regional Network of Expertise and Collections (SERNEC), depar tment of biology, Appalachian State University. He is conducting a study for the N.C. Department of Transportation, looking at the genetics of H. naniflora and its relatives. Murrell will give a presentation for PAC at Walnut Creek Preserve this fall, where he will talk about some of his findings.

Actors in early Tryon play

The cast of an early play produced in Tryon poses for a photo. Barb Smith gave this photo to Alan Peoples, who brought it in to the Bulletin. If you know anything about the play or can identify any of these people, we’d love to hear from you. You can call 828-859-9151 or email [email protected]. (photo submitted by Alan Peoples)

On March 12 the members of the Men’s Monday Afternoon Duplicate Bridge Club met in the home of Dick Belthoff for their weekly duplicate bridge tourna-ment.

At the end of the afternoon’s play there was a tie for first place between the partnership of Mike Verbonic playing with Ken Yea-ger and the partnership of George Cashua playing with Jack Saun-

ders. Placing third was the tandem of Charlie Stratford and Dave Hart.

The club next meets on March 26 at the home of Ken Yeager.
