Tryon, TDDA leverages funding totaling $3.2MAccording to a recent report

prepared by the Town of Tryon in partnership with the Tryon Down-town Development Association (TDDA), Tryon’s business area has received overall funding totaling $3.2 million since 2008.

The town and TDDA recently submitted the final report to the

N.C. Rural Economic Develop-ment Center for a $75,000 Eco-nomic Innovation Grant (EIG) awarded to Tryon in 2008.

TDDA officials said the report illustrates a remarkable example of how small grant funds might be leveraged to accomplish larger community goals.

The $3.2 million in private and public investment in Tryon’s Central Business District and ad-jacent General Business corridors occurred despite the general down-ward, national economic trend over the three-year grant period

The report numbers include all downtown development and improvements since the begin-ning of the grant period, including infrastructure, business startups, promotional materials and ancillary private upgrades.

Tryon’s designation in 2007 as

a N.C. Small Town Main Street community facilitated the town’s competitive bid for EIG funding. The Main Street affiliation also gave the town program assistance from key personnel in the N.C. De-partment of Commerce’s Western Division of the N.C. Small Town Main Street program.

The “Tryon Downtown Historic District and Revitalization Project”

originally proposed five connected elements, including:

• Historic district designation;• Public restrooms in Rogers

Park;• A depot master plan;• A historic downtown walking

tour and• The Tryon tourism website,

www.exploretryon.com. Each element was calculated to

enhance economic development and heritage tourism potentials in Tryon’s downtown corridor. The walking tour element also included signage for The Tryon Horse, The Tryon Toymakers Cottage and Mis-sildine’s Drugstore.

Though Tryon’s central busi-ness district has not yet achieved designation as a National Register Historic District, the town and TDDA are addressing the issues identified by the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) to ac-complish the final goal.

Working toward that designa-tion, the town and TDDA have taken the following steps:

• Generated a new detailed his-toric survey of downtown Tryon;

• Written and approved the Tryon Historic Preservation Or-dinance;

• Established and populated the Tryon Historic Preservation Com-mission and

• Created and implemented a Façade Improvement Incentive Program to facilitate the town’s re-application to SHPO’s study list.

TDDA officials said the Façade Improvement Incentive program

• Town, TDDA(Continued from page 1)


funded by the EIG also proved effective in leveraging private investment for other downtown façade improvements, both directly through partner projects and in-directly through privately funded façade improvements by adjacent building and business owners.

Conspicuous among these lat-ter “angel” investments are the recently completed renovations to The Tryon Depot and Sunnydale’s. Officials said these large-scale im-provements will further facilitate National Register certification for the proposed downtown historic district in the future.

According to the TDDA, the EIG project has sparked short-term recovery in Tryon, bringing people together to support innova-tive management and marketing strategies, which, in turn, promote regional economic goals through historic preservation and heritage tourism.

The town and TDDA leader-ships said the real success of the EIG project rests upon building community awareness, interest and involvement to accomplish end goals. They said they appreciate the many individuals and organizations who stepped forward to assist with implementation of this economic enhancement project.

For further information about Tryon’s ongoing downtown de-velopment projects, contact the Town of Tryon (828-859-6655) or a member of TDDA (828-859-6484).

New promotional video coming to Landrum’s websiteby Leah Justice

The City of Landrum is cur-rently working on a video for its website centered on the city’s slogan, “There’s more to do in Landrum.”

Landrum City Council dis-cussed last week a video to be placed on the city’s website at www.cityoflandrum.com. The video will focus on the city's beauty and attractions and will be designed to draw more visi-tors.

City administrator Steve Wo-lochowicz said the video will

show a lot of illustrations of the town and the area, with cameos from residents.

The video, which will be ap-proximately three to five minutes long, will cost the city $2,500. The money will come from hospitality tax funds.

Synergy Point, the city’s website providers, are handling the video.

The video will be approxi-mately three to five minutes.

It is not known yet when the video will be complete to be placed on the website.

EmaiLiNg a picturE to thE tdb?

A few tips…• Lighter and more contrasting subjects and backgrounds will

print better than subjects and backgrounds with similar hues. When possible, keep the background clean and simple, not too cluttered.

• Focus on the people in your shots – zoom in on them so that their expressions can be seen. When possible, show people doing things rather than lined up facing the camera.

• High-quality (100 or 200 dpi) .jpg formats are preferred, be-tween 3 and 6 inches wide.

• When you email the photo, if at all possible, please include in your email the names of all the people in your photo, identi-fied from left to right. Photos without names are less likely to be published.

Thanks for your submissions… see you in the paper!

New Tryon article on Wikipedia

To the Editor: My Denver daughter, noticing

the lack of information on the Tryon Wikipedia site, decided to surprise me with a revision.

She is amazed, even after 15 years of my “chamber of com-merce” boasting of all that Tryon offers, at the amount of informa-tion she found from local sites and elsewhere. This town has so much to offer!

The article is still being re-vised, but as you may know, if you have corrections or additions, you can get into the site and edit. I was proud she chose to use my photos.

I do hope you will give this “work in progress” a glance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Try-on,_North_Carolina and pass on the address to your out-of-town friends who may not grasp what a very special town this is.

Welcome to the

Hanukkah & Kwanzaa

A Special Thank You To All Our Sponsors!

Hanukkah, or Chanukah, is a Jewish celebration that is also known as the Festival of Lights. Hanukkah is an eight-day celebration, most notably marked with the lighting of the menorah. The menorah is a candleholder that holds nine candles; the main eight candles and a “helper” candle called a shamash, which is used to light all eight can-dles. This tradition is derived from a story found in the Talmud about a man named Judas Maccabaeus, or Judah Maccabee. Around 170 B.C., the ruler Epiphanes tried to force the Greek gods upon the Jews. When the Jews would not worship the pagans, Epiphanes raided and destroyed the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. After seven years of fight-ing, Maccabee regained control, and the Temple was restored. The famous story states that only a small vial of oil was found to light the eternal lamps, yet they were blessed and burned for eight days, giving the Jewish people enough time to acquire more oil for the lamps. The symbolic lighting of the menorah occurs at sundown for the eight days during Hanukkah. Children also trade gifts and play with games and toys, such as a driedel. Special foods, such as fried potato cakes and fried donuts, are served during Hanukkah. Kwanzaa was created in 1966 by Professor Maulana Karenga, a Black Studies professor from California State University in Long Beach, California. Kwanzaa is a celebration of the African family and culture. It begins on December 26 and ends on January 1. The name Kwan-zaa comes from the Swahili term which means “first fruits of harvest.” Much like the menorah of Hanukkah, Kwanzaa has seven symbolic candles lit each night symbolizing aspects of the culture. Each night, one of the seven principles of Kwanzaa-- unity, self-determination, col-lective work, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith--is discussed. Kwanzaa is also represented by seven symbols--crops, a mat, a candleholder, the seven candles, ears of corn, gifts, and the Kikome Chad Umoja (The Unity Cup).

Ancient egypt

A SpeciAl thAnk you to All our SponSorS!

Dating back over 5,000 years, Egypt is the oldest civilization still in existence. There is no place on Earth that has a longer history or culture. Egypt is older than China, India, and even came before the Ancient Greeks and Romans. The Nile River pro-vided the Egyptians with water and fertile soil, allowing people to settle down in one place with a constant food source. Each year the Nile River would flood, fertilizing the soil which was then cultivated. The Nile was also used as a means of transporta-tion. The Egyptians created one of the very first forms of written language called hi-eroglyphics. This allowed for higher communication and, as a result, the recording of their history, which we can still study today. The Ancient Egyptians believed in a life after death and had many gods and goddesses. The Pharaohs, or kings, each had an elaborate tomb called a sarcophagus to be buried in. Many of these tombs were placed in grand structures or monuments. The most famous of these monuments are the Pyramids of Giza. The bodies of the dead were mummified and preserved for use in the afterlife. Ancient Egypt had many famous rulers, such as King Tutankha-men, Cleopatra, and Nefertiti. Advances in mathematics, science, medicine, and ar-chitecture were made, and some of those skills are still used today. The first paper, called papyrus, was created by the Egyptians. Scholars are still trying to unravel the mystery of exactly how the pyramids were built. Homes were built of mud brick. The Egyptians were fond of makeup and cosmetics. The black eyeliner, often depicted on Ancient Egyptians in movies and television, was worn by both men and women.

Ancient egypt

A SpeciAl thAnk you to All our SponSorS!

Dating back over 5,000 years, Egypt is the oldest civilization still in existence. There is no place on Earth that has a longer history or culture. Egypt is older than China, India, and even came before the Ancient Greeks and Romans. The Nile River pro-vided the Egyptians with water and fertile soil, allowing people to settle down in one place with a constant food source. Each year the Nile River would flood, fertilizing the soil which was then cultivated. The Nile was also used as a means of transporta-tion. The Egyptians created one of the very first forms of written language called hi-eroglyphics. This allowed for higher communication and, as a result, the recording of their history, which we can still study today. The Ancient Egyptians believed in a life after death and had many gods and goddesses. The Pharaohs, or kings, each had an elaborate tomb called a sarcophagus to be buried in. Many of these tombs were placed in grand structures or monuments. The most famous of these monuments are the Pyramids of Giza. The bodies of the dead were mummified and preserved for use in the afterlife. Ancient Egypt had many famous rulers, such as King Tutankha-men, Cleopatra, and Nefertiti. Advances in mathematics, science, medicine, and ar-chitecture were made, and some of those skills are still used today. The first paper, called papyrus, was created by the Egyptians. Scholars are still trying to unravel the mystery of exactly how the pyramids were built. Homes were built of mud brick. The Egyptians were fond of makeup and cosmetics. The black eyeliner, often depicted on Ancient Egyptians in movies and television, was worn by both men and women.

Landrum loses to Abbeville in 1A Upper State Finals

by Joey Millwood

For the first time this season, the Landrum softball team found its back against the wall.

Abbeville traveled to Landrum on Saturday, May 7 and walked away with a 2-0 victory in the South Carolina 1A Upper State Finals.

The Cardinals played Monday night to avoid elimination. Those results were not available before press time.

“It’s huge (to win on the road),” Abbeville coach Tim Collins said. “Landrum’s such a fine ball club.”

Landrum, however, hurt itself on Saturday.

Abbeville’s Lisa Sanders reached base in the fifth inning

on an error and later scored on another error after being moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Sara Zimmerman.

In the seventh inning, Pan-thers’ leadoff hitter, Nikki Fields, reached on an error and scored on a double by Abby Best.

Offensively, Landrum had its chances. In the first inning, Landrum pitcher Jordan Farmer walked and moved to third on a Lauren Pitts double. Abbeville pitcher Gennifer Durham got Bre Cuff to pop up to shortstop and struck out Shelby Morris to end the inning.

Carruth to run cross country for Presbyterian College by Joey Millwood

Landrum’s J.J. Carruth will run cross country for Presbyterian College (PC) next year. The senior signed and committed and PC is in for a treat, according to Landrum head coach Jeremy Darby.

Darby said Carruth is a “hot-headed runner.” That doesn’t mean he’s angry, it means that he likes to talk to the other team-mates on the course and push them harder.

“They’re definitely getting a dedicated, hot-headed runner,” Darby said.

They’re also getting a runner who knows how to win, which is important for a program that hasn’t been winning year in and

year out. Carruth has won three state

championships and was All-State and All-Region for three years in-a-row. In that run the Cardinals didn’t lose a meet at the 1A level.

All of those factored in to the runners’ decision.

“I will go in and contribute right away,” he said.

Another factor in the decision was the coaching staff and the runners.

“I liked the people,” he said. “Everybody’s nice and down home. I fit right in with the run-ners. The coach is identical to (coach) Darby.”

Carruth will compete immedi-ately upon hitting campus this fall.

Polk Angels youth softball tournament championsThe Polk County Wolverines

In the second inning, Skylar Henderson singled and Morgan Smith walked. Durham struck out Sydnie Brown and Taylor Jenkins to end the inning. In the third inning, Pitts singled and Cuff doubled, however, Pitts was thrown out at third. Morris hit a stinger back towards Durham for

the third out. Durham settled in for the rest of the game and kept the Cardinal offense off balance. Durham struck out 11 batters.

Farmer had a strong day on the mound. The junior allowed just two hits and fanned six.

Landrum coach Tucker Ham-rick’s message to his team after the game was simple.

“I told them we have to stay focused at the plate and keep our

heads high,” he said. “I told them it’s not impossible (to come back). They need to make the decision to have confidence and come back.”

As for Saturday’s perfor-mance?

“We’re a better team than how we played today,” Hamrick said.

He explained that the district attorney decides if charges should be brought against someone in every criminal case in this district. His office has eight assistant district attorneys. He said he has achieved a conviction rate of 95 – 98 percent for DWI cases by allocating sufficient resources to this problem. Kiwanian Ernie Giannini (left) and club president Steve Cobb (right) thanked Hunt (center) for speaking to the club. A children’s book will be donated to a local school in his honor.

Tryon Daily BulletinThe World’s Smallest Daily Newspaper


Recently I discussed the out-look for a potential drug being used in conjunction with PET scans to provide earlier and more accurate diagnosis of the heart-breaking disease Alzheimer’s.

If you’re a baby boomer, I’m going to share some dis-turbing and frightening num-bers about you and your future. If you’re a baby boomer, you’re now part of a group turning 65 years old at the rate of 10,000 of you every day.

That fact also puts you in an-other potential group – one in eight boomers will develop Al-zheimer’s during the next 20 years. Today our concerns are for our aging parents and grandparents, but tomorrow, it’s all going to be about you.

Right now, in America, some-one is being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s every 70 seconds. In addition to stealing the patients’ memories and ruining the image of the golden years of retirement, this epidemic of Alzheimer’s disease is fatal – there are no survivors. None.

According to the newest Al-zheimer’s Association report, “Generation Alzheimer’s,” it is projected that of the 78 million baby boomers, 10 million will die from Alzheimer’s disease or a closely related condition caused by the disease.

While not even close to be-ing the number one disease or killer of Americans – that honor still resides with heart-related

Real costs of Alzheimer’s disease

Senior LifeStyles

Ron Kauffman

diseases – Alzheimer’s disease is the only one of the top 10 causes of death in America that has no known method of prevention, no cure, nor for that matter, a reliable course of treatment to slow its progression. The estimated medical costs to Medicare and the American healthcare system of Alzheimer’s over the next 40 years, if no pre-ventative or cure is found, is $20

trillion. Think about

that - with our current national debt at about $14.5 trillion, the costs just for

Alzheimer’s are sufficiently high to pay off the current national debt and have enough left over to mail a $20,000 check to ev-ery man, woman and child in America.

What about the human costs? There are the billions of dol-

lars that may have to be spent to provide outside care for ailing patients and untold billions more for unpaid caregivers and fami-lies who step into the challenge of caring for a parent or spouse. These caregivers are forced to go through the agony of losing a loved one twice: first as they watch the devastation being wrought by the actual effects of the disease both mentally and physically, and then, ultimately, the death of the patient.

According to a spokesperson for the Alzheimer’s Association, “Most people survive an average of four to six years after a diag-nosis of Alzheimer’s disease,

but many can live as long as 20 years with the disease. As the disease progresses, the person with dementia requires more and more assistance with everyday tasks like bathing, dressing, eat-ing and household activities.” The disease takes years to run its course, and in doing so places increasing demands on the esti-mated 11 million family mem-bers and friends who provide patient care.

The increased pressures on the caregivers can also have a direct impact on the caregiver’s health, employment – as the de-mands for care or doctor’s visits increase, thereby affecting their income and if they cover any of the disease’s related costs, undermine their own long term financial security.

Today, the diagnosis is a guaranteed death sentence to the patient, and unfortunately, can have devastating effects on the family members that care for the patient.

The actual costs are virtually immeasurable, and the current outlook for the future will, at the very least, require boomers and their families to take steps toward advance planning.

Ron Kauffman is a Geriatric Care Manager and Certified Senior Advisor. He is the author of Caring for a Loved One with Alzheimer’s Disease, available at www.seniorlifestyles.net, where you can also listen to his weekly podcasts. He can be reached at 561-818-0039 or by email at [email protected].

On Monday, May 16 the Congregational Church Wom-en’s Fellowship will host a luncheon and program with Dr. Dent Davis from Tryon Pres-byterian Church as the guest speaker.

Dr. Davis will discuss some of the Biblical stories of heal-ing and speak from his own and other’s related experiences.

Dr. Davis came to the Tryon Presbyterian Church in 2010 as senior pastor.

He received a doctor of ministry degree from Columbia Theological Seminary in 1989 and a doctorate in education from the University of Tennes-see in 2002.

For the eight years prior to coming to Tryon he was the dean and vice president of lifelong learning at Columbia Theological Seminary in At-lanta.

The luncheon program will be held at the Congregational Church fellowship hall, lo-cated at 210 Melrose Avenue in Tryon.

The morning will begin at 11:30 a.m. for social time, noon for the luncheon meeting and the program will begin at 12:45 p.m.

Reservations need to be in by noon, Thursday, May 12. The community is invited.

Call the church office at 828-859-9414 to make a reservation.

Tree Tops and Sleepy Hollow Cottage are two of the homes that will be featured on the His-toric Saluda Committee’s Tour of Homes on Saturday, June 4 from 1 – 5 p.m.

The tour is part of Saluda’s 130th Anniversary Celebration and is a fundraiser for preserva-tion projects in Saluda. Historic Smith Hill has been chosen as the site of the tour. Six homes, a teahouse and two additional smaller buildings will be on the tour, all within walking distance of each other.

In 1914, Dr. D. Lesesne Smith of Spartanburg started the In-fants’ and Children’s Sanitarium in Saluda as a place where “anx-ious parents could get skilled at-tention, careful diet and treatment for their suffering children during the hot summer months.”

Dr. Smith also had under his care the Spartanburg Baby Hospital, established in the same year.

From an original eight-room cottage, the sanitarium grew to 12 cottages, a central dining room, a diet kitchen, an assembly hall and examination and treatment rooms. Dr. Smith, along with Dr. Frank Howard Richardson of New York and Black Mountain, returning from a meeting of the Southern Medical Association, decided that general practitioners needed to be trained in childcare.

From the hospital in Spartan-burg and the sanitarium in Saluda grew the idea of a Southern Pedi-atric Seminar, where from 1921 – 1959, it is estimated between 3,000 - 4,000 doctors from all over the country and several for-eign countries came to Smith Hill to study the latest in pediatrics.

When the seminar closed in 1959, the property was divided among Dr. Smith’s four children. The buildings that remain are now permanent homes and all but one are still owned by relatives. The houses have all been restored in the last five years.

Tree Tops and Sleepy Hollow Cottage on Saluda’s Historic Tour of Homes June 4

Tree Tops, the home of Net-tie and George Sweet, was built in 1908 by Mr. Staton for Net-tie Hane’s sister, Ammie Hane Smith. It has been used as a home for the Smiths, Owingses and Sweets, a place for house-paying guests at the sanitarium and as a physician’s office.

After the house passed to the Sweets, renovations began in 1994. Don Mintz’s crews did the major work and George Sweet worked behind the scenes.

In 2004, when the Sweets became permanent residents, Ralph Morgan rebuilt the guest-house and added the carport. “Stagger Inn” began as a chicken house in the Smith’s backyard in Spartanburg and was moved to Smith Hill and renovated for Dr. Smith’s summer interns. It is now the grandchildren’s bunkhouse.

Sleepy Hollow Cottage was built by Mr. and Mrs. Paul Ken-nedy of Spartanburg around 1917. Acquired by Dr. Smith, it was used to house nurses for the

sanitarium in the 1920s. In the mid-1960s, Tennent

Hane of Fort Motte, S.C., pur-chased the summer cottage from his first cousin, Porcher Smith. Tennent always said he measured all of his first cousin’s porches to insure that, though Sleepy Hol-low was the smallest house on the hill, it would have the largest porch.

It is now owned by Tennent’s daughter, Jenny Hane, and her husband, Julian Wiles. In 2005, they began an extensive reno-vation with Saluda contractor Adam Henry. The porch remains the same.

Tickets for the tour are avail-able at city hall, Historic Thomp-son’s Store and Heartwood Gal-lery in Saluda. Parking is avail-able at the First Baptist Church and shuttle vans will be available to take you to Smith Hill.
