Feast feeds shepherd’s flockby Samantha Hurst
Jim Jackson served his first heaping plate of piping hot turkey and savory dressing three years ago to a table of people who would have been alone at Christmas had it not been for the Shepherd’s Feast.
The creation of Tryon resident Ross Fox, the Shepherd’s Feast offers a Christ-mas banquet to any and all in need.
“There are people who every year might be alone, but they find fellowship here,” Jack-son said. “You don’t have to be financially in need to be in need.”
Former volunteer Walt Flashar agrees. Flashar won’t be in town to volunteer this

Tryon eyes parking solutionby Leah Justice
The Town of Tryon may have found a solution to downtown parking is-sues it has struggled with for at least a decade.
Tryon Town Council discussed Tuesday implementing an ordinance similar to one used by the Town of Sylva, which restricts merchants and downtown employees to off-street parking areas. The fine in Sylva for violators is $50.
“I think it’s time to do something,” said councilman Doug Arbogast.
Tryon officials have heard com-plaints for years that downtown em-ployees take up retail parking spaces and hurt downtown businesses. Some merchants in particular have been criticized for parking in front of busi-nesses all day.
The town strengthened its parking ordinance in recent years and enforced the ordinance at times, but found that employees would see officers marking tires and simply move their car to a

different space. The town has had two-hour parking signs in place for years, but the ordinance has not been enforced recently.
Tryon Town Councilman Aus-tin Chapman said the problem he sees with the Sylva approach is when an employee wants to do business downtown during non-working hours.
“I don’t see how you enforce it, I guess is my problem,” Chap-man said.
Tryon Town Manager Justin Hembree said the town could ei-ther issue some type of sticker to downtown employees or enforce
it like some other town ordinanc-es, which are complaint-driven. He also said he spoke to a Sylva official who said once the town approved the ordinance they saw no other issues.
“I’ve sat here and listened for nine years and every idea we’ve come up with has a ‘what if,’” said Tryon Mayor Alan Peoples.
Downtown business owner Mary Prioleau suggested the town make some revenue off the new venture and charge new em-ployees $1.50 to $5, or whatever fee the town determines, to buy a sticker.
The town could also give out

year, but said he knows he’ll miss being apart of the event.
“We weren’t going any place (for Christmas) a few years back and I felt it was a good thing to have an opportunity, not just for people who couldn’t afford to have a Christmas, but for people who were by themselves to get together with people and celebrate,” Flashar said. “There comes a time in life when it’s not feasible for some people to travel, but no one wants to be sitting in their house alone on Christmas.”
Fox launched the event af-ter witnessing another group in Hendersonville serve 2,500
meals to those in need at the holidays.
“I found out from several sources that something like that was just as needed here,” he said. “Now, it’s evolved into something that’s a true celebra-tion of Christmas.”
Fox anticipates feeding sev-eral hundred people from 1-4 p .m. a t Polk County Middle School th is Chr is t -mas.
“I’ve been calling this a place for peo-ple who just don’t want to
cook,” Fox said. That’s why he brought vol-
unteer Mary Lyth and her hus-band, owners of Giardini Trat-toria in Columbus, on board. Even though they serve up food

placards for employees to place in their windshields when do-ing other business downtown to help prevent ticketing employees when they are not at work, she said.
Hembree has met recently with downtown business owners and said he got positive feed-back about Sylva’s approach to parking.
Hembree said the Sylva ordi-nance was suggested by a local resident after the town held a public informational meeting last month asking for the public’s suggestions on how the town should handle commercial de-velopment. Downtown parking was one issue that arose at the public meeting.
Tryon currently charges $15 for a parking ticket. The town has not decided yet what fine it will implement for employee violators if a new ordinance is approved.
Hembree said the town could draft an ordinance specific to
Tryon and bring it back to coun-cil in January, after looking into areas to designate for employee parking. Most retail blocks down-town have parking in the rear of the building and back doors, but the block from Morris the horse to the railroad tracks does not have public rear parking.
“I’d love to see (a draft) in January and start enforcement in March,” Peoples said.
Prioleau complimented town officials Tuesday at the close of the meeting on their quick re-sponse to several issues that have arisen in recent months, including parking and work to strengthen the town’s zoning ordinance for commercial development.
“Two and a half months ago I started calling ya’ll hysterical over some things,” said Prioleau. “I think it’s remarkable what has been done. I think it’s phenome-nal how hard and steadfast people have come together and agreed to disagree but move forward.”
Peoples responded, “You know what that says? Nearly perfect. Always Tryon.”

every day in their restaurant, they don’t mind donning aprons yet again on Christmas.
“It’s such a wonderful thing that people donate their services and their time to make this hap-pen,” Lyth said. “We think it’s a delightful way to celebrate Christmas actually.”
Lyth said she and her hus-band typically run the kitchen.
Over the years it’s become pretty easy to pull things togeth-er, though prep alone requires an entire day of work.
They direct how many pounds of cranberry sauce must be prepared and how to slice vegetables for the feast.
Lyth also directs volunteers in cutting the roasted turkeys smoked each year at Mountain Barbecue.
Standing over pots of boiling potatoes, they l a u g h w i t h other volun-teers and find t h e m s e l v e s enveloped by holiday spirit.
“ F o r u s in particular, bringing peo-ple together through food is who we are, it’s what we do, it’s what’s important to us. We don’t think there is any bet-ter way to create community,”
she said. “It’s a lovely way to give and share, which to me is what Christmas is all about.”
The program continues to need volunteers willing to help
coordinate, serve meals, help in the kitchen with food prepara-tion, cooking, dishwashing and c lean-up.
J a c k s o n said volun-t e e r i n g a t the event is a present in
itself during the holidays. “The connection you have

‘Senior Lifestyles’ writer to speak at adult day careby Samantha Hurst
Columnist and author Ron Kauffman is set to speak Mon-day, Dec. 27 at 10 a.m. at the Polk County Adult Day Care center in Columbus.
Kauffman, who is also a ge-riatric care manager, is consid-ered an expert on issues facing boomers and their aging parents. During the “Meet the Author” event, he will focus on a variety of topics related especially to the trials of caring for a loved one.
“Everyone is unique, but no one thinks any-one has ever faced their sit-uation before. You might be the first one to go through this in the last five minutes, but you’re not the first one to go through this,” Kauffman said.
He said many people do need this idea validated. They need to see support coming from those who have truly been in similar situations before in their lives.
Kauffman knows from per-sonal experience the trials of caring for a parent living with Alzheimer’s.
His own mother lives with the disease, giving him inside knowledge and first-hand ex-amples from which to draw.
Kauffman plans to discuss health-expectancy; ADLs, or activities of daily living such as dressing, bathing, toileting, eat-ing and ambulating (the ability to get from one point to another such as from a wheelchair to a bed); and IADLs, or instru-mental activities of daily living, such as housekeeping, meal preparation, grocery shopping or remembering medication.
All of the ADLs and IADLs have bearing as to what type of facility might take an individual
should they no longer be able to live completely on their own.
Kauffman said for those who choose to care for their loved ones at home, there are also innumerable lessons. He said caregivers must be aware of warning signs and symptoms related to fatigue.
“If someone goes, ‘I didn’t know that,’ then I’ve met my goal with this talk,” he said. “It’s a caregiver talk – it’s irrelevant whether it’s Parkinson’s or stroke – it doesn’t really mat-
ter.” Kauffman
has spent ex-tensive years studying de-m e n t i a a n d Alzheimer ’s disease as it relates to both the patient and the family of a senior with
Alzheimer’s. He works with seniors and the adult children of aging parents providing care planning, guidance on is-sues and aspects of aging from in-home patient care, facility placement and advance direc-tives to managing the stresses of caring and dealing with loss.
He’s authored the book “Caring for a Loved One with Alzheimer’s Disease,” was selected to attend the White House Conference on Aging in 2005 and served as the pub-lic information officer for the Area Agency on Aging in south Florida.
He is also a fully accredited Certified Senior Advisor and a Dementia Care Team Leader for the Alzheimer’s Association.
Half of the proceeds from the sale of each book ($5 per book) will return to the adult day care center. Kauffman will also be available to autograph his book after the presentation.

Landrum approves updated flood ordinanceby Leah Justice
The City of Landrum approved an updated flood ordinance and map last week.
The Federal Emergency Man-agement Agency (FEMA) updates flood maps every 20 years and the city must approve the ordinance and map in order for residents in flood areas to obtain flood insur-ance.
Landrum City Administrator Steve Wolochowicz told Landrum council members Tuesday, Dec. 14 new flood maps created with geographical information systems (GIS) technology indicate that Landrum currently has no homes located in flood zones.
Landrum flood zone properties include some land in the areas of Spivey Creek and Wolfe Creek.
Landrum Mayor Bob Briggs said the new mapping shows Landrum’s flood plain areas are smaller than were shown on previ-ous maps.
City council approved a reso-lution, an approximately 50-page ordinance and new maps during its meeting last week.
The resolution is as follows:“WHEREAS, the Landrum
City Council recognizes that special flood hazard areas of the City of Landrum are subject to periodic inundation which results
in a potential loss of life, prop-erty damage, health and safety hazards which adversely affects the health, safety and general welfare of our community; and WHEREAS, the Landrum City Council desires to update its regulations with the objective of minimizing potential loss of life and property damage in areas that are subject to flooding; and WHEREAS, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in its recent Flood In-surance Study, has updated its maps and supporting data that are hereby adopted by reference and declared to be part of this or-dinance; and WHEREAS, FEMA also recommends improvements to the management of construc-tion in flood hazard areas which are also adopted as part of the text of this ordinance; and WHEREAS, all of these amend-ments will produce a more effec-tive ordinance that will meet the city council’s objectives, “NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Landrum City Council approves this ordinance, related flood maps and support-ing data.”
To access the updated ordi-nance and flood maps, contact Landrum City Hall at 864-457-3712.

Lewis named to Smart Start’s statewide advisory committee
Ernestine Morrow Lewis, an early education instructor at Isothermal Community College and board chair of the Rutherford Polk Partnership for Children, has been named to Smart Start’s Local Partnership Advisory Com-mittee (LPAC).
As a member of the com-mittee, Lewis will help inform decisions the nonprofit makes as it works to improve the quality of early education and promote the healthy growth of children birth to 5 years old. Lewis will serve a three-year term represent-ing Smart Start partnerships in Western North Carolina.
Lewis, a Rutherford native, has devoted her life to making quality early learning experiences available to young children. She served as the day care coordinator with the Polk County Depart-ment of Social Services where she helped families eligible for child care subsidies understand the benefits of high-quality pro-grams. She later worked for what became the Division of Child Development, overseeing subsidy for child care programs in 48 counties.
As a co-chair of More at Four committees in both Rutherford and Polk, she helps ensure that area 4-year-olds have early learn-ing opportunities to prepare them for kindergarten. She also serves on the Early Childhood Educa-tion Committee at Isothermal Community College and was
the chair of the Polk Head Start Policy Council. She was a mem-ber of the Regional Interagency Coordinating Council for five counties and the Local Inter-agency Coordinating Council, which oversees the exceptional children’s services.
“I am so pleased to be named to this state committee. After serving in a variety of ways on the local level, I can bring firsthand knowledge and experience to the N.C. Partnership for Children,” said Lewis. “I can bring a point of view from the perspective of child care providers, the child care staff, the subsidy providers, early educators, the schools, and the Rutherford Polk Partnership for Children. It is an exciting opportunity to represent Western North Carolina in the Partnership for Children’s quest for quality experiences for children.”

Letter to Santa care of the Bulletin
Dear Mr. Santa Claus: I wonder how old are you?How many skies have you
crossed:What size are your shoes?What kind of cookie do you
like best, Will you always remember
me?When will our planet earthEver find one true peace?Have I been good enough, Have I made you smile?Will you be warm enoughWhen you cross 10,000
miles?Have you ever wished you
had More than one special
sleigh?Have you ever followed the
wrong starAnd somehow lost your
way?
Do you spy on me while I sleep,
Is every child a part of you?Have you ever climbed into
a spaceThat you were too big to fit
through?Have you ever had so much
to do That there was something
you forgot?Were you comforted by the
ones, Who love you, perfect or
not?What do you dream about
each nightWhen you close your eyes
to sleep?Do you see the hungry chil-
dren Curled up near your tired
feet?Are your reindeer shelter
petsWere they ever lost or
alone?Do the elves have parents
tooOr are they from orphan
Letter to the Editor homes?Are we all really so very
differentAcross this great, vast land?Do you think big people
knowTomorrow lives in the child’s
hand?Can you help someone who
is sadWith that twinkle in your
eye?Can you please teach me
somedayLike those reindeer, how
to fly?Does Christmas time remind
youTo look back and remember
when?Does the Holy birth inspire
you; Today, we begin again?Do you know that I believeIn special things I cannot
see?Like your giant, gentle
heart; And God’s love, assuredly. I believe magix still exists
I need not frankincense or old,
Sometimes magic is a simple hug,
Kindly offered to a precious soul.
Today all that I would like to ask
On this wintry Christmas eve; Is that you help those who
are lost To find the hope to believe. We have this moment to cel-
ebrateTo know laughter, to joy in
play; Santa, please help the ones
I loveTo unwrap the gift of this
new day. Maybe then they too shall
find That life’s woven mystery, Is not invisible or unkindWhen we truly choose to see. I feel your presence in my

The Learning Links program offers grants of up to $800 to public school teachers in Av-ery, Graham, Jackson, Madison, Mitchell, Polk, Rutherford and Swain counties so that they may provide creative experiences for their students. The goal is to increase students’ enthusiasm for learning and staying in school, ultimately through graduation. The grants are made possible by the Ben W. and Dixie Glenn Farthing Charitable Fund of The Community Foundation of West-
ern North Carolina.Grants to Polk County schools
totaled $1,588 and included:
Polk Central School – The Launching Pad – $800
The aim is to create a reading-readiness room to strengthen reading and writing skills for aca-demically at-risk students, pre-K to second grade. The focus is on stimulating the brain with sensory and motor activities to improve gross and fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, balance, vision and listening skills - all shown in brain research to be key for read-ing readiness. Approximately 250 children will be served.
Polk County Middle School – outdoor classroom – $788
The purpose is to create an outdoor, hands-on learning center for earth science and archaeol-ogy. Space will be made for a
simulated archaeological dig, a mini-mineral mine, a fossil hunt and an excavating site for a T. Rex. The materials used will al-low the students to mine for gems, hunt for clues to Earth’s past and search for artifacts left behind by early N.C. settlers. The project will serve 200 eighth-graders.
The Community Founda-tion of Western North Carolina promotes and expands regional philanthropy and develops local funds that address changing needs and opportunities in the 18 coun-ties of Western North Carolina. Since 1978, the foundation has distributed more than $100 mil-lion in grants and scholarships.
