If it sounds too good to be true ...STOKESDALE – When Mickie Halbrook received a call on Monday, Oct. 7 in-forming her that she was the winner of a new Mercedes and $5.5 million dollars, she wasn’t buying it.

“I knew from the start it was a scam,” says the Stokesdale town councilwoman, “but I kept the guy on the phone and kept asking questions to see what infor-mation I could get.” The caller claimed to be David Washington with a sweep-stakes clearinghouse company called Winner’s Circle. Washington told Hal-brook that in order to claim her new car and her millions, she needed to purchase a Green Dot Money Pass card at her nearest Walmart or Kmart. When asked why that was necessary, Washington claimed that Winner’s Circle would use the Green Dot Money Pass to verify her winnings with the IRS and H&R Block.

The Money Pass would only cost her $500, Washington said, and once she called him back with the access code on her receipt, he would give her further in-structions on how to collect her winnings. That’s when Halbrook called the North-west Observer, hoping to get the word out and help others avoid being scammed.

Green Dot Money Pass cards have been a key element of fraud scams for the past two to three years. Green Dot is a prepaid, reloadable debit card that promises low fees, free withdrawals at over 22,000 MoneyPass ATMs nation-wide, and the ability to waive monthly

charges. However, once funds are pre-loaded onto a Green Dot Money Pass card, the access code on the receipt is all that’s needed to drain the funds from the card, and often right into a scam-mer’s bank account.

Ken Schatz, manager of the Walmart in Kernersville, confirms that the high level of fraud associated with Green Dot cards has prompted Walmart to ask their customers a series of questions before allowing them to load funds onto a Green Dot card, with the primary question being, “Do you personally know the person you are giving this card to?” If the customer has received a call similar to Halbrook’s, Walmart employees will not allow the customer to pay to preload the card.

Sgt. Hamlett with the Guilford County Sheriff’s Department District 1 office advises residents to “always be cautious when someone says you’ve won money. Never give out your social security or an account number over the phone to someone you don’t know and have no history with.” If you are uncom-fortable with the phone call, ask for a number to call them back and have a trusted relative or friend return the call. Also, beware of increased phone scams as the holidays approach.

Bottom line, if it sounds too good to be true, it almost always is.

As Sgt. Hamlett sums it up, “If you’ve never bought a lottery ticket from Jamai-ca, you didn’t win the Jamaican lottery.”

How low could they go? UNITED STATES – Gas prices be-low $3? It could happen – and in our lifetime, even. According to GasBuddy, which tracks gasoline prices at over 140,000 stations in the U.S. and in

Canada, gas prices in Tulsa, Okla. and Lubbock, Texas. are nearing the be-low-$3/gallon mark (average price). And

I saw a lot of people working at the site of the future dog park at Oak Ridge Town Park

this past weekend and was wondering if it’s close to being finished.

According to Terry Lannon, Oak Ridge Director of Parks and Recreation, the new dog

park is still on track to open this fall. Both park employees and volunteers are working diligently to make the dog park a reality as quickly as possible.

This past weekend, about 30 vol-unteers from The Summit Church of Oak Ridge spent a Saturday morning clearing the site as part of its Big Serve project. “We took out anything that would not be dog friendly,” says Chad Loflin, coordinator for the event.

Lannon says the group’s work was invaluable in moving the dog park for-ward. “We’ve been working on clearing the site but we can only do so much in (an allotted time frame with a small number of employees),” explains Lan-non. “These volunteers put in more than 100 man-hours and completely cleared the site. We can now do the final grad-ing and start on the fencing.”

Collected brush piles will be mulched for ground covering and extra wood hauled away. An asphalt trail leading through the park to the trail head is scheduled to be completed the

“A lot will depend on the weather as to how soon we’re able to open, but things look good so far,” says Lannon.

I’ve been hearing people talk about how much money local political candidates are

spending on their campaigns and whether or not it’s above or below $1,000. What’s that all about and why is it so important?

The majority of political candidates are required to provide complete financial

disclosure. However, a North Carolina law exempts candidates running for a county office, municipal office, local school board office, soil and water conservation district board of supervi-sors or sanitary district board if they do not spend more than $1,000.

According to Charlie Collicutt, direc-tor of the Guilford County Board of Elections, candidates who spend over $1,000 on their campaigns are required to file financial disclosures. These reports can be time consuming and tedious. All contributions and spend-ing must be individually recorded. In addition, donors who have given more than $50 must be identified by name, address, occupation and employer.

If a local candidate anticipates spending less than $1,000, he or she has the option of filing a Certification of Threshold which exempts the candidate from the process. “It’s a way for small town candidates to not have to do the extensive paperwork,” says Collicutt.

If during the course of the campaign, the situation changes and the candi-date is spending more than $1,000, the candidate is then required to file another Certification of Threshold which with-draws the first certificate. At that point, the candidate must complete disclosures

detailing the entire financial history of his or her campaign.

While the Guilford County Board of Elections maintains a candidate’s financial report as public record, it does not have investigators to police the law. If someone believes that the law has been violated, that person is encour-aged to contact the Board of Elections.

Collicutt says he is aware of a couple of local candidates who had originally filed to spend less than $1,000 but have since gone over that amount; he says those candidates are currently working on their disclosures.

“We just have to get it right,” says Collicutt. “If they refuse to do so, then that’s another story.” At that point, the matter is turned over to the N.C. State Board of Elections.

OAK RIDGE town councilNEXT MEETINGThursday, Nov. 7 • 7pmOak Ridge Town Hall

CONTACT YOUR TOWN(336) [email protected]

Mayor Ray Combs was absent from the Thursday, Oct. 3 meeting because he was traveling. Mayor Pro Tem Roger Howerton called the meeting to order at 7 p.m. and led with an opening prayer. Minutes of the Sept. 5 council meeting and closed session were approved.

CITIZEN COMMENTS�� Jim Kinneman thanked everyone

who supported the Lions Club golf tournament held last month, and said all proceeds will be used to help people within the community. Kinneman invited anyone with visual needs to contact him or another Lions Club member.

The fire department’s barbecue will be held on Saturday, Oct. 12.

TOWN MANAGER’S REPORT�� Town Manager Bruce Oakley pre-

sented a resolution in support of Oak Ridge residents who wish to change from a Kernersville mailing address to an Oak Ridge mailing address so their address reflects the community in which they live. Howerton invited anyone to speak on the issue.

�� Gray Cassell, who lives in Oak Ridge but has a Kernersville address, said he lives in the Oak Ridge township and has always had a Kernersville address. “As I get older and my hair gets a little grayer, I’m a little more opposed to change,” Cassell said. He explained that he was very happy to be an Oak Ridge resident, but would rather not go through the process of changing his mailing address.

�� Brian Haderlie introduced himself and said he had organized the efforts to have Oak Ridge (and Stokesdale) residents’ mailing addresses changed to reflect that they live in Oak Ridge and Stokesdale rather than Kerners-ville. Haderlie explained the USPS would survey all residents affected by the potential address change before making a decision about changing their addresses. He and others have asked Congressman Howard Coble and County Commissioner Linda Shaw for their support with the mailing address changes. Haderlie said the vast major-ity of residents in the Meadow Ridge, Smoke Ridge, Arbor Run and Westridge

Estates neighborhoods had indicated through informal surveys that they supported changing their Kernersville mailing addresses.

4 0 Council voted unani-mously to approve a resolution voicing support for people living in Oak Ridge to have an Oak Ridge mailing address if they desired.

by ANNETTE JOYCEBig changes are coming in the

health insurance industry and under-health insurance industry and under-health insurance industry and understanding what’s happening is mindbog-gling for most of us. That’s one of the primary reasons Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina has introduced its new insurance store, an innovative and convenient way to ensure that its cus-tomers receive the best possible service.

The retail operation, which had its grand opening early last month at 1941 New Garden Road in Greensboro, is being run by Triad Insurance Partners, a local insur-Partners, a local insur-Partners, a local insurance agency that has been in business since 1994.

Ryan Kauffman, who owns the agency with partners Mike Byrd and Collins Fulcher, compares the store to a cell phone store in the way it operates.

“We’re focused completely on working with walk-in customers and concentrate on spending the time it takes to explain our various health care plans. Our goal is to help our customers select the plan that’s best suited to their needs,” says Kauff-suited to their needs,” says Kauff-suited to their needs,” says Kauffman, a Summerfield resident.

With so many changes, an agent

can be an invaluable re-

source in providing guidance to get the

most effective program for your particular needs.

“Without the help of an expe-rienced agent, you’re on your own to

try to navigate the government’s web-site and figure out which health care option or tax credits work for you. Our services are available at no additional charge,” says Kauffman.

“Also, if someone has a question or concern regarding a current plan, we have a Blue Cross Blue Shield compa-ny representative on-site who can talk

to our members face-to-face and provide quick

answers without call-ing a call center.”

One of seven stores in the state and the only one in the Triad, the

Blue Cross Blue Shield store of-Shield store of-Shield store of

fers much needed assistance in helping

people better understand the changes that are being instituted by the Health Care Reform Act which kicks into full gear this coming January.

As of Jan. 1, every American will be required to carry health insurance or be faced with a penalty. Open enroll-ment started on Oct. 1 and extends through Mar. 31. However, in order to meet the January deadline, a person must be enrolled before Dec. 15.

For this reason, Kauffman and his partners are encouraging people to With so many changes, an agent partners are encouraging people to

research their options early rather than wait-early rather than wait-early rather than waiting until the last minute. “Health care reform will be different for everyone. It’s not a cookie-cutter approach,” says Kauffman.

As an example, Kauffman men-tions that in 2014 some individuals and families will be eligible for sizeable advanced premium tax credits from the federal government. “These tax credits are based on annual income,” says Kauffman. “For instance, a single person with an annual income under $45,960 and a family of four with an income under $94,200 are eligible for tax credits under the new health plan. Education is the key to making the wisest choices.”

With this in mind, Blue Cross Blue Shield made sure to include ample space to host educational events in its new store. Seminars are conduct-ed in a spacious meeting room which comfortably seats up to 35 people. The company has already held sev-eral seminars and additional sessions are scheduled.

During these seminars, attendees are given an overview of the new

program and invited to ask questions. “The reform program comes with a lot of new terminology, expanded benefits and potential tax credits,” explains Kauffman. “These seminars are designed to give people a basic knowledge of what they can expect.”

Agents are also always available for one-on-one consultations to an-swer questions specific to individuals.

Unlike traditional insurance agencies which are open only during business hours, the insurance store on New Garden Road will be open Monday through Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

“It’s all about making our service convenient and accessible for our customers,” says Kauffman. “Health care is definitely changing. Let us show you the way.”

in St. Louis, some stations are selling gas for $2.79 per gallon.

“While the direction of current prices reflect what we can expect for Q4 fuel prices, it’s certainly encouraging to see how many states already have stations with regular gas available for under $3,” said Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum analyst for GasBuddy.

GasBuddy’s network of over 250 websites shows 18 states where motor-ists could see prices below $3 per gallon this week (unfortunately, North Caro-lina is not one of them, though several bordering states and other southern and mid-west states are included among the

18 states on the list).

“If current supply and demand fundamentals remain unchanged and West Texas crude slips into the mid-$90s, then perhaps by Thanksgiving we could see as many as 33 states (two-thirds of the U.S.) with gas sta-tions selling below $3,” says Gregg Laskoski, another GasBuddy senior petroleum analyst.

As of Wednesday, Oct. 9, GasTown on U.S. 220 in Summerfield had among the area’s lowest gas prices, at $3.21/gallon. Costco and Sam’s Club, both on Wendover Avenue, sold gas to members for $3.11/gallon on the same date.

Watch out for those deerNORTH CAROLINA – With the ar-rival of the fall season, drivers on North Carolina roads need to be on the alert for an increase in the possibility of col-lisions with deer. About 90 percent of all reported animal-related crashes involve deer, and 50 percent of those crashes traditionally take place in the months of October through December.

A N.C. Department of Trans-portation study shows that in 2012, there were 20,181 animal-related crashes. That is the lowest number in three years, but helped boost the three-year total of crashes to 61,688, with 20 fatalities, nearly 3,500 injuries and more than $144 mil-lion in damages.

“This is the time of year that drivers need to be extra focused and alert,” said NCDOT Director of Mobility and

Safety Kevin Lacy. “We have the com-bination of increased deer activity and it is getting darker sooner in the evening.”

Deer activity is on the increase as a result of the mating and hunting

seasons. Crashes are most common between 5 and 8 a.m., and from

6 p.m. to midnight. That is when more vehicles are on

the road, deer move-ment increases, and

limited visibil-ity makes it more difficult

for motorists to see them on or near

roadways.

Wake County leads all counties in the number of

animal-related crashes for the 10th year in a row, although the

991 crashes reported last year was its lowest figure since 2006. Its high rank-ing is primarily the result of the large number of drivers and roadway mileage in the county, combined with the abun-dance of wooded areas.

Guilford County was a distant second at 668 crashes, followed by Pitt (619), Duplin (596) and Johnston (492) counties.

Counties in the far western section of the state, where there are consider-ably fewer roads and drivers, reported the lowest number of crashes. Graham County is at the bottom of the list with only seven crashes, just below Jackson (12) and Swain (9) counties.

NCDOT offers the following sugges-tions for motorists to avoid being in a deer-vehicle crash:

Slow down in posted deer cross-ing areas and heavily wooded areas, especially during the late afternoon and evening;

Statistics indicate most deer-vehicle crashes occur near bridges or overpass-es, and they also follow railroad tracks, streams and ditches;

Drive with high beams on when pos-sible, and watch out for eyes reflecting in the headlights;

Remember that deer often travel in groups, so do not assume that the road is clear if one deer has already passed;

Do not swerve to avoid contact with deer. This could cause you to lose control of the vehicle, flipping it over, veering it into oncoming traffic or overcorrecting and running off the road, causing a more serious crash;

Slow down and blow your horn with one long blast to frighten the deer away;

Increase the distance between your vehicle and other cars, especially at night. If the car ahead of you hits a deer, you may also become involved in the accident;

Always wear your seat belt. Most people injured in deer-vehicle crashes were not wearing their seat belt;

Do not rely on devices such as deer whistles, deer fences or reflectors to deter deer as these devices have not been proven to reduce deer-vehicle crashes; and

If your vehicle strikes a deer, do not touch the animal. A frightened and wounded deer can hurt you or further injure itself. The best procedure is to get your car off the road if possible, and call 911.

GCS approves funding for NWHS traffi c updatesNW GUILFORD – The Guilford County Board of Education approved an initial priority list of school construction, renova-tion and maintenance projects it consid-ers to be of critical need at its Oct. 8 meeting. Northwest Guilford High School was one of eight schools on the list that included $54 million of projects. That number represents a portion of the $1.24 billion in projects over the next 10 years Guilford County Schools (GCS) has identi-fied as critical deferred maintenance, infrastructure and technology needs.

Of the eight schools designated for the next round of funding, North-

west High School is slated to receive $1,156,200 for traffic updates.

In addition to approving the project priority list, the board also voted to reas-sess the replacement school project at Guilford Middle and continue to assess a project for The Academy at Central. GCS staff will bring more information about those projects, if available, at the next board meeting on Oct. 24. When a com-plete list of priority projects is selected, the board will make a request for the Guilford County Board of Commissioners to fund the projects with dollars remaining in the 2008 School Construction Bond.

hearing closed, and in their final 3-2 vote to approve it.

The approval was the last hurdle that developer David Couch, a resident of Summerfield and owner of Blue Ridge Companies, a development, construction and property management company, needed to get over before moving forward with purchasing an 80-acre tract of land along N.C. 150 and Deboe Road from landowners Paul and Virginia Milam. The 34+ acres will be combined with an adjoining 45 acres bordering N.C. 150 that had been zoned for commercial use in 2005 but never developed. Together, the 80 acres will be a walkable, village-style shopping center that Couch says will be designed to meet the needs of Summerfield residents.

Of concern to many who spoke at the public hearing was the lack of a master plan that shows details including the placement of buildings, parking lots, sidewalks and landscaping within the shopping center, and the lack of details about what type of businesses would occupy the center. As he had done at the Planning and Zoning Board hear-ing, Couch explained he had not invest-

ed what would likely be over $200,000 to develop a master plan because he first needed the assurance that the rezoning would be approved before he purchased the property from the Milams. After a property is rezoned, a commercial site/master plan is required to be reviewed and approved by the town’s Planning and Zoning Board. In addition to the board’s approval, the developer must also get approval from several other entities including NCDOT, Guilford County Health Department, EPA, and Department of Environmental and Natural Resources – Division of Water Quality throughout the design and construction process.

Of those who spoke in opposition to the rezoning, most were nearby prop-erty owners. Cindy Harvey, a resident of Henson Forest, expressed concerns about the impact on her neighbor-hood’s water supply, saying neighbors already had to coordinate the days they irrigated their lawns because of the lowered water pressure that resulted.

Gail Dunham, a resident of Hen-son Farms off Brookbank Road, took issue with how the rezoning had been advertised, and said the list of permitted uses in a CU-GB zoning (Conditional Use-General Business) should have been provided along with the initial letter nearby property owners received

REZONING...continued from p. 1

and from a third landfill would nega-tively affect their quality of life as well as their property values.

After the matter was heard by the town’s Planning and Zoning Board, it came before the council in July. The public hearing was continued to the August meeting, when the Van Derveer’s attorney, Richard Shope, presented a case for why the permit should be approved. Neighbors made impassioned pleas for why it should be denied, and council members Randy Braswell, Bill Jones and Frank Bruno visually anguished over their decision before eventually asking for more time to review the evidence that had been

presented. The case was continued to Sept. 17, when council voted 4-1 to deny the special use permit for the proposed landfill; Mayor Randy Jones cast the only dissenting vote.

On Oct. 8 the council held a special meeting to discuss the next steps it needed to take in preparing for a court case. Mayor Jones, who is an attorney, and Bill Trevorrow, the town’s attorney, briefed the four other council mem-bers on what to expect from this point forward and after deliberation, the council agreed to allocate $10,000 for court costs and a transcriptionist who will work from audio files to document all public meetings in which the special use permit case came before the town.

A hearing date has not yet been set.

when they were notified of the rezoning request.

Peggy McPartland was among the 20 Summerfield residents who served on the town’s Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee. She said a com-mercial development the magnitude of what was being proposed was not consistent with the approved compre-hensive plan, which stated preserving the community’s rural character was a top priority.

Of those who spoke favorably of the proposed rezoning, several said they welcomed the opportunity to access more services, dining, etc. without hav-ing to leave their community and drive into Greensboro. On numerous occa-sions Couch was described as a “man of his word,” and as someone who would develop the commercial property responsibly.

Gran Fondo with FriendsRiding for a cause – annual cycling event raises funds for breast cancer research

Mustang Fitness in Oak Ridge will host the 2nd annual Gran Fondo on Saturday, Oct. 12, to raise funds for breast cancer research.

OAK RIDGE – The bikers are coming and they’re riding for a cause. It’s Gran Fondo with Friends Pink Ribbon Ride, a charity ride that raises money for breast cancer re-search. The ride takes place on Saturday, Oct. 12, and starts and ends at Mustang Fitness on Linville Road in Oak Ridge.

An Italian phrase, Gran Fondo loose-ly translates to “Big Ride.” It’s a tradition that started in Italy and France, where people were first able to ride a portion of one of the professional grand tours, the Tour de France and the Giro d’Italia, after the professional racers navigated through the course.

Chad Gimbert of Mustang Fitness says that this is “not a race but more of a cycling celebration.” He is expecting over 300 riders including several promi-nent professional bikers, many of them from Italy. This year’s event also includes special guest George Hincapie, a retired

American professional cyclist with an impressive record of race wins.

The ride kicks off at 8 a.m. with a two-mile Grand Marshall’s Ride led by breast cancer survivors and escorted by police vehicles. From the Mustang Fitness facility, bikers travel down Linville Road toward Haw River Road. The course individual riders take depend upon the number of miles they choose to ride.

Following a scenic loop along back roads to Hanging Rock State Park, the ride offers participants different options for their travels. Bikers can choose rides of 12, 25, 43, 61 and 100 miles. Six fully stocked rest stops are stationed along the route and road support is provided until 4 p.m. A hot catered lunch will be provided at the finish.

Although advance registration is closed, interested bikers may register the day of the event. For info, call (336) 907-8161 or visit www.granfondowithfriends.com.

Bethel United Methodist Church held a Spirit Month during September to get people excited about donating food for Good Samaritan’s food pantry in Stokesdale. Shown here, church members participate in “Neon Day,” with everyone bringing fruit for Week No. 1. Week No. 2 was “Wacky Tacky, Go Nuts,” and members brought in peanut butter. Beef stew was contributed for Week No. 3, which was “Team Week.” And for Week No. 4, “Red, white and blue,” members brought in spaghetti and meat sauce. All total, members contributed 927 pounds of food for the local food pantry.

CongratulationsRose Alonso-

McKenzie, 48, of Oak Ridge took first place in the 45- to 49-age division of the 21st Women’s Only 5K Walk & Run on Oct. 5. More than 3,500 women took part in the

event held at Women’s Hospital, which raised $110,510.16 in registrations so that more area women can receive mammo-grams to screen for breast cancer.

McKenzie completed the USA Track

& Field-certified course in 23:37, and placed 16th overall.

Megan Kaffee, 30, of Summerfield placed 15th overall and completed the course in 23:36.

Participant registrations fees from the Women’s Only 5 K Walk & Run support The Mammography Scholarship Fund. Free or reduced charge mammograms were provided to 730 women in Guil-ford and Rockingham counties last year thanks to the Fund.

Woodruff said a key to defeating Ragsdale and finishing the season strong is to “continue playing good up front” on offense. “Whoever makes the most mistakes will probably lose,” Woodruff said.

Our prediction | If the Vikings can take an early lead, they should be able to keep it through the fourth quarter and gain their first conference win. Woodruff said Ragsdale’s “record is very deceiving,” but Northwest has shown they can set the pace of the game. To come out on top, the Vi-kings need to continue doing that and keep control of the football.

NORTHWEST GUILFORD VIKINGS (5-1, 0-0 in 4A)vs. Ragsdale Tigers (2-4, 0-0 in 4A)

Friday, Oct. 11, 7:30 p.m. at Ragsdale

Series history | The Vikings and the Tigers have split the last four meetings, with Northwest winning last year, 35-17.

Meaningful stats | The Vikings outpace the Tigers on the ground, gaining 282.3 yards a game to the Tigers’ 68.3 yards per game. However, Ragsdale has air superiority, notching 114.7 yards pass-ing to Northwest’s 55.7 yards per game. “They’ve had a little more success throwing the ball recently,” said North-west head coach Joe Woodruff.

Keenan Scott continues to lead the Vikings on offense, accounting for 99.3 yards per game on the ground. The Vi-kings have had an easier time reaching

the end zone, too, averaging 26.8 points per game to Ragsdale’s 14.2 points per game.

Looking back | Both teams are coming off bye weeks. The Vikings handily de-feated Grimsley in their last game, 39-7, while the Tigers turned away East Cha-pel Hill with a 28-7 win the last time they took the field. This is the first conference matchup for the both the Vikings and the Tigers. “Our kids understand the im-portance of the game,” Woodruff said, adding that he expects a “knockdown, drag-out fight in Jamestown.”

Looking ahead | With the rest of the season spent playing conference teams,

Anthony Harding, senior, carries the ball down the field in the game against Grimsley on Sept. 27. The Vikings won that game, 39-7, and

return to the field on Oct. 11 to play their first conference game of the

season after having a bye last week.Photo by Chris Barricks/NWO

NORTHERN NIGHTHAWKS (5-1, 2-1 IN 3A)vs. Rockingham County Cougars (2-5, 2-2 in 3A)

Friday, Oct. 11, 7:30 p.m. at Rockingham

Series history | Northern has been victorious in the last four matchups between the two teams, winning last year, 42-7. They have held Rockingham County to single-digit scores each year.

Meaningful stats | The Nighthawks’ and Cougars’ running games are pretty even, both averaging about 185 yards per game. Northern outpaces Rockingham in the air, however, gaining 138.3 yards to Rockingham’s 107.8 yards. While the Nighthawks found the end zone regu-larly, scoring 37.8 points a game, the Cougars have only notched 18.2 points a game.

Looking back | Last week’s NCHSAA decision costing the Nighthawks their undefeated season and the end of their 31-game winning streak dealt the team

a blow, but head coach Brian Thomas doesn’t think it will have a lingering negative effect on the team. “Our kids are focused right now,” he said. “They’re hungry, and they’re ready to play.” The team dominated last week’s game against Eastern Alamance, holding the Eagles to only six points.Looking ahead | The one key to winning the conference matchup against Rock-ingham will be ball control, Thomas said. The Cougars are a run-oriented team, and the Nighthawks will need to contain them and “make sure they don’t eat up the clock on us.” Rockingham quarter-back Daniel Cardwell is a big piece of the Cougars’ triple-option offense, and stopping him will be a big part of the Nighthawks’ game plan. Northern needs to get a push from the offensive line. “Our big thing is getting hat on hat and

Running back CJ Freeman, sophomore (right), takes the ball

against Eastern Alamance on Oct. 4. The Nighthawks contin-ued their winning streak, defeat-

ing Eastern Alamance 29-6.

creating running lanes for our running backs,” Thomas said. Our prediction | Rockingham has struggled to score, while Northern has not. If the Nighthawks’ defense holds against the Cougars’ offense, they should be able to dominate the ball and notch another conference win.

GRINS and GRIPES


Stump dump deserved careful deliberationThere is no doubt the recent town

council meetings in Stokesdale which addressed the LCID “stump dump” ap-plications were long and uncomfortable. There appears to have been a conflict of interest in what was the correct applica-tion of required permits and what is com-mon sense concerning aesthetics, per-ceived safety and will of the people in the neighborhood affected. It is an emotional

issue, and in my opinion it deserved all the time our council members committed to it. The issue will receive even more at-tention in the weeks and months ahead as a resolution is eventually reached.

The democratic process and prob-lem resolution is messy at times and the process deserves every one’s best effort – no matter if it takes hours. Our elected council members have proven they are

totally invested in our community and in good stewardship. It is not an easy task.

None of us could step into the posi-tion of a town council member without a steep learning curve while getting up to speed on all of the ordinances, rules and legalities. There are processes that must be followed and sometimes it is complicated. I am appreciative our pres-ent mayor and council members have accepted the responsibility and duties in-volved. I believe they deserve our respect.

In my opinion Mr. Tatum (candi-date for Stokesdale mayor), who wrote “Common sense should apply” in the Oct. 4-10 issue, would benefit from an

apology to the mayor and the council members for his shallow interpretation of the interaction at the last council meeting, as expressed in his editorial. There was much more happening than Mr. Tatum perceived.

Burning bridges is rarely wise.

But to answer Mr. Tatum’s question, “Who do we want to be the next Stokes-dale mayor?” – I will vote for those who have worked hard and given their time and effort thus far, not for a person who has shown a lack of understanding of small town practices and policies, and as yet not served our town in any capacity.

Susan Lukens, STOKESDALE

Patti Stokespublisher/editor

Under fireSome took issue with my note at the

end of Mike Tatum’s editorial last week, calling me “juvenile and unprofessional.” Maybe I deserve that, but I want to share some background.

Unfortunately, some of the communication Tatum and I have had since he filed in July to run for Stokesdale mayor has included what I believe to be unfair and unfounded specula-tions regarding decisions I have made as an editor, criti-cisms of my job performance, my staff members’ job performance, and the quality of my newspaper.

As for making editorial corrections, let me emphasize that I don’t think people who make grammatical mistakes are ignorant (I make them also). But on a daily basis we get some pretty “raw” copy from all directions, and my instinct as an editor is to correct mistakes when I see them. If I didn’t, calendar events, Bits & Pieces, classifieds, editorials, and grins and gripes would be much more “raw” than what you ultimately see in print. I

have a standard, and most people don’t take it personally when I correct their un-intentional mistakes; they also understand when I sometimes have to condense their copy to fit our available space.

Tatum, however, has insisted that I leave his writing exactly as he gives it to me. I will comply, but when I see mistakes and leave them, I don’t want it to appear that I was asleep on the job – thus my note at the end of Tatum’s editorial last week.

Until three months ago I had never heard of Tatum.

Now, suddenly he is firing away at me and others who have been engaged in community service long before he came onto the scene. If I am so incompetent as editor of the community newspaper that has served Stokesdale for almost 15 years, why hasn’t Tatum spoken up before now?

In the coming weeks I hope Tatum will focus more on educating others about his own leadership strengths, com-munity service and visions for the future versus criticizing others – especially the council members he hopes to serve with.

Whether it’s the big

moments or the small,

�� Stokesdale Town Council members Braswell, Bruno, Bill Jones and Mickie Halbrook for taking the time to work for the people of their community on the LCID case!

�� Angie Vineyard, owner of Hair Cre-ations by the Vineyard (off Oak Ridge Road), for being a great beautician and for having a very relaxing, recently renovated salon.

�� Doctors who charge extra for 3D mammograms. They need to be avail-able to all women regardless of financial status. Some women do not have an ex-tra $50 and live paycheck to paycheck.

�� The person griping about Stokesdale Parks and Recreation allowing “danger-ous plays” (Oct. 4-10 issue). Read the rule book. Slide tackling is legal.

�� Ms. Stokes (NWO editor) for show-ing her lack of professionalism in the

editorials. I will be voting for Mr. Tatum because he like me is not perfect, how-ever Ms. Stokes believes she is as she has cast a stone at a glass house.

�� The editorial comments by the (NWO) editor in chief, for being pathetic and juvenile, regardless if that is your discussion. It shows lack of professional-ism. I will be supporting Mr Tatum, i was up in the air but now i am not.

�� Drivers who tailgate others who try to adhere to posted speed limits. I admit to having a lead foot, but not on a wind-ing country road. Tailgating won’t make me go faster — it’s just asking for an accident.
