Residents disagree over whether Columbus should annex Giardini Special meeting Tuesday, Aug. 2by Leah Justice
Area residents recently expressed varying opinions on whether it would be in Columbus’ best interest to vol-untarily annex Giardini Trattoria, a
restaurant between Columbus and Mill Spring.
Columbus Town Council held a public hearing about the requested an-nexation on Thursday, July 21. About 15 people spoke, mostly in favor of the

Mintz murder suspect asks for court appointed attorneyFriends, family of murder victim attend hearingby Leah Justice
Travis McGraw, the suspect in the murder of his wife, Van-essa Mintz, asked for a court-appointed attorney this week during Polk County Superior Court.
McGraw has been charged
with first-degree murder in the death of Mintz, who was found shot to death on Feb. 19, 2011 at the Saluda Mountain Lodge.
Mintz was working at the lodge that morning. Her family owned the lodge at the time of her murder.
McGraw, who was 44 at the time of his arrest, appeared in superior court Monday, July 25 with Judge Mark Powell presid-ing. Powell referred McGraw’s
request to Indigent Defense Services, which will assign McGraw an attorney.
A few friends and family of Mintz’s attended Monday’s hearing in support of the mur-der victim. They were wearing buttons with Mintz’s picture and ribbons in honor of her memory.
A grand jury scheduled to meet this week could consider whether to issue an indictment
for murder on McGraw, accord-ing to court officials.
McGraw was arrested on Feb. 23, and a judge found prob-able cause to issue first-degree murder charges on March 9. Investigators said they found a bullet in McGraw’s truck that matched the bullet that killed Mintz.
McGraw is being held at the N.C. Department of Corrections on no bond.

town accepting the restaurant’s an-nexation request. About 40 people attended the public hearing, which is the largest audience Columbus council has likely seen in years.
Residents in favor of the an-nexation said it would be a win/win for the town and the fine din-ing restaurant.
Some Columbus residents, however, said they don’t want the town to grow any larger and they have concerns about what the property could be in the future.
Giardini owners Joe Laudisio and Mary Lyth requested to be voluntarily annexed into the city limits of Columbus. If approved, the annexation would be a volun-tary satellite annexation, meaning the property is not contiguous to the town. The satellite voluntary annexation also means that the town would not be required to ex-tend utility service, such as water and sewer.
Lyth said the restaurant wants to be annexed in order to sell beer and wine. The restaurant currently offers brown bag, which means patrons can bring their own beer and wine.
“It is a win/win situation,” said Lyth. “I believe we have proved ourselves to be a wonderful cor-porate partner.”
Lyth said in the four years G ia rd in i has been open they have created 14 jobs for local residents and they attract customers from as far away as Charleston, S.C., Charlotte, Florida “and beyond.” The restaurant also supports local agriculture by working with local organic farmers, she said.
No one disputed that Giardini is an excellent contributor to the local economy, but a few Colum-bus residents expressed concern
over the proposed annexation.“I do worry that another owner
of this particular property could ask in some way to hook up to our town water,” said Susan Jo-hann. “I do worry about the ser-vices we would have to provide.
There are more than 20 homes in Beechwood that don’t have a fire hydrant.”
J o h a n n s u g g e s t e d t h a t m a y b e the restaurant should petition the county to change its status
as a dry county. No alcohol can be sold in Polk County except in the towns of Columbus, Saluda and Tryon, which have had special referendums to allow the sale of alcohol. Lyth said Giardini wants to apply for a beer and wine li-cense, but not sell liquor.
Of the speakers, 10 were in fa-vor, noting that Giardini has been
ranked one of the top 100 best restaurants in the state of North Carolina.
John Gargiulo called it a win/win as well, saying he thinks the restaurant being a part of Colum-bus will benefit the town, the area and the restaurant.
“I see no reason in the world why they should not be annexed,” said Gargiulo.
Patricia Gass said the town should annex the restaurant be-cause they support the local econ-omy and sell organic food that is grown in Polk County.
“I think they have given a tremendous boost to Columbus’ image,” said Gass. “I hope council will make the necessary arrange-ment to annex them so they can prosper more.”
But Columbus resident Kath-leen Kent said she didn’t hear any of the people in support say where they live. Most of the people in support lived outside of

Columbus; one couple was from Lake Lure.
Kent said she thinks the alco-hol sales issue should be taken up with the county. She sa id the restaurant is lo-cated between town limits and the recently an-nexed Foster Creek.
“The prop-erty is nearly two miles from town limits,” said Kent.
Councilwoman Margaret Met-calf said she’d like to know if Giardini would want to be a part of Columbus if they could sell alcohol in the county.
“I think the main thing I’d like to know is if you had a choice, if the county wasn’t dry, would you still want to be in Columbus?”

Metcalf said.Lyth responded that they don’t
have that option, so it’s hard to say what they would do in a different situation.
Council directed staff to gath-er data, such as what revenues
the town will receive from sales tax and beer and wine tax if Giardini were annexed. The tax revenue would be $600 per year, ac-cording to town manager Jona-than Kanipe.
Council set a special meeting for Tuesday, Aug. 2 at 6 p.m. when a decision is expected.
Council gave no indication whether or not the majority wants to annex the restaurant. The town denied the same request for an-nexation from Giardini about a year and a half ago.

Recreation is important part of area residents’ lives
Members of the Polk County Recreation Advisory Board held the first in a series of public meetings Tuesday night to gather input from the community regarding what its needs are recreationally.
Does the community need more walking trails, more organized sporting events, more yoga classes or disc golf?
While the recreation department hopes members of the com-munity take time to fill out their survery regarding all of the county’s public parks and recreational facilities (the survey can be found online at www.polknc.org or at the county offices in the Womack Building in Columbus), they also want to hear from community members first hand.
The next three meetings are scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 2 at Isothermal Community College in Columbus, Tuesday, Aug. 9 at Polk County Middle School and Tuesday, Aug. 16 at Saluda Elementary School.
In the meantime, surveys can be dropped off at Stearns Gym in Columbus or mailed to Polk County Recreation, P.O. Box 308, Columbus, N.C. 28722. Surveys are due to be turned in by Sept. 15.
Our local county leaders, even beyond the typical political spectrum of county government, can only do their jobs well with input from all of us. They can’t improve upon things if they don’t know what it is the community thinks needs improvement. So, voice your opinion and let them know if you think walking trails need more lighting or if you’d like to see more adult recreational activities. Like they say in politics, you shouldn’t complain if you didn’t vote.
For more information, call Polk County Recreation Director Patty Aldred at 828-894-8199 or Jim Patterson, chairman of the Polk County Recreation Board, at 828-817-4407.

Is it the state’s responsibility to fund pre-K programs?
Nelon Knoll Farm unique experience
To the Editor: Please allow me
to share with your r eade r s a r ecen t wonderful experi-ence.
We had our grandchildren here and called the Nelon Knoll Farm to see if we could come by and see the champion bison “Irish warrior.”
Not only did Mr. Nelon tell us to come by but even after a full day’s work for him he took two hours to give us a personal tour of his place, which included going into the field and hand feeding all the
buffalo, including Warrior, with ears of corn.
Mr. Nelon is one of the nicest people I have ever met and after sharing time with he and his family and visiting the buf-falo “up close and
personal” I can honestly say that the visit to the Nelon Knoll Farm was the highlight of my grandkids’ trip here and wasn’t far off that for my wife and me.
I don’t know if Jerry will have the time to be so sharing with everyone, but I hope so, because it is truly an experi-ence of a lifetime!

Fats, Oils, and GreaseFats, oils and grease do not be-long in the sewer or your septictank. While pouring hot waterand detergent into the drainalong with your grease may al-low it to pass into your line, thegrease will re-form into a solidlump as it cools, blocking eitheryour homes sewer pipes or themain sewer system, or your sep-tic tank.Fats, Oils, and Grease.... SomeInformationNever pour fats, oils and greasedown the sink or garbage dis-posal. Before washing, scrapeand dry wipe pots, pans, anddishes with a paper towel anddispose of them in thetrash-mixing these with absorb-ent waste such as paper towels,kitty litter, coffee grounds orshredded newspaper will helpprevent leakage from trashbags.Blockages in the main sewerline can lead to spills which arehazardous to our health and tothe environment. Removal ofgrease blockages and thecleanup associated with sewagespills is very expensive and mayresult in liability and propertydamages. Blockages in yourown sewer or septic tank canlead to waste water backing upinto your home or business,spilling out onto the streets andeven finding its way into stormdrains. The property owner willeither need to perform do-it-your-self maintenace, or to hire aplumber to clear the blockage.Cleanup can be expensive forhomeowners and even more sofor businesses, which can alsobe subject to fines and clo-sures.And Finally... Before attemptingto unblock clogged sewer lines,we request that you notify us inadvance. Often a grease ball iscleared from a property owner'spipe system only to move outinto the street and cause clogsin the main sewer system. Sucha clog can result in a sewagespill from a manhole.

From her home on Mocking-bird Hill, Mary Kessler enjoyed a unique view of Landrum and Tryon. Her connection to both communities will be remem-bered through a endowment fund created at the Polk County Community Foundation.
Kessler’s will directed the community foundation to es-tablish The Mary F. Kessler Fund to be used exclusively for projects, programs and facilities contributing to the physical and scenic improvement, develop-ment or beautification of the towns of Landrum and Tryon, and the cultural, intellectual and educational development of its citizens. Grants will be awarded equally between the two towns over time.
Kessler funds became avail-able in September 2010 and have already funded grants that matched the donor’s cri-teria. The city of Landrum has
received grants to begin resto-ration of its historic railroad depot, which played a major role in the founding of the town in 1880. The Town of Tryon and the Tryon Downtown Develop-ment Association were awarded a grant to make safety and ap-pearance improvements to the intersection of New Market and South Trade Streets.
O .P. Ea r l e E lemen ta ry School in Landrum received a grant to pilot its “Community Arts Evenings” project, which has involved local artists in the arts education of its students and the public.
The Kessler Fund is a per-manent endowment fund, which will contribute a percentage of its assets each year for grant-making to eligible Landrum and Tryon projects that match the funding criteria. Grant rec-ommendations will be made by a foundation grants committee
based on written applications, interviews and a voting system.
The Community Founda-tion makes grants to non-profit organizations throughout the Polk County area and also has the capacity to direct funds designated for individual com-munities according to donors’ charitable wishes.
“The Foundation is honored to help Mary Kessler turn her dreams for our community into reality,” said president and CEO Elizabeth Nager. “The benefits of her gift to the residents of Landrum and Tryon will be experienced now and for gen-erations to come.”
Additional grants will be awarded from the Mary F. Kes-sler Fund during the second un-restricted grants cycle of 2011 for projects that meet the es-tablished criteria. The next ap-plications will be due in 2012. For more information, contact
the Polk County Community Foundation at 255 South Trade Street in Tryon, call 828-859-5314 or visit www.polkccf.org.

cbGW-037562Twice-told Tales of the Dark Corner
by Dean Campbell
Of all the twice-told tales in this series, by far the greatest number of comments and questions are elicited by the lyrics from the old ballads.
Following the recent publi-cation of lyrics from “Can I Sleep in Your Barn Tonight, Mister?”, a story of infidelity, I received a prob-ing question.
“Do you know the old ballad of an Irish sailor who came to the New World and met an Indian princess?
He spurned her love, but when he went back to Ireland and discov-ered that his sweetheart had been untrue to him, he longed to return to his little Mohee.”
I know the story well. It was one of my maternal grandmother’s favorites.
This is how she sang it:
The Little MoheeAs I went out walking down by
the seashore,The waves were a’playing, the
wind it did roar;There I sat amusing myself on
the grass,And who did I spy but a young
Indian lass.She came and sat by me, and
taking my hand,Said, “You are a stranger, and
in a strange land,But if you will follow, and come
go with me,I’ll teach you the language of
the Little Mohee.”The sun was a’sinking far over
the seaAs I went along with my Little
Mohee;Together we wandered, to-
gether we roamed,Till we came to the cottage that
she called her home.She asked me to marry, and of-
fered her hand,Saying, “Fa-
ther’s a chief-tain, and rules this fair land;
My father’s a chieftain, you a ruler can be,
I’m his only daughter, my name is Mohee.”
“Oh, no, my dear maiden, that never can be;
I have a dear sweetheart in my own country;
I’m going to leave you, so fare-well, my dear;
My ship’s sails are spreading, and home I will steer.”
The last time I saw her, she knelt on the sand,
As my boat passed by her, she waved me her hand,
Saying, “When you get over the girl that you love,
Just remember your Mohee, in the coconut grove.”
And when I had landed with my girl on the shore,
Both friends and relations gath-ered round me once more;
I gazed all around me, not one did I see
That could ever compare with my little Mohee.
And the girl I had trusted, proved untrue to me;
So I said, “I’ll turn backward and cross the blue sea;
I’ll turn my course backward, away will I flee
To spend all my days with my Little Mohee.”
Ballad of the Irish sailor and the little Mohee

There is a saying that goes, “wherever you go, there you are.” As a young girl, it made so much sense to me, written on greeting cards and embellished with hearts and flowers.
After traveling a lot in the past few years to various paradise, I have to be re-minded to stop and smell the ... forest. I have to be remind-ed of the mountain streams on a hot and sunny day, the smell of wild berries burst-ing everywhere and the majestic beauty our own area provides us.
It’s like looking in a mirror when I look at places like Chim-ney Rock, near my home, and watch my dogs plunge into a cold mountain stream, hiking on a hot summer’s day. In those moments, I remember the tropical waterfalls in the Caribbean, and say, “I have that!”
Taking advantage of our own backyardWestern North Carolina was
voted “Fodor’s No.4 Top Desti-nation in the World.” That is no small feat.
So this week’s article focuses on a young woman who has hiked and explored our area as an
expert, and shares her knowledge with tours to all the beauty spots our area provides, including right here in Tryon.
WHO: Mandy Blake, of Southern Appalachian Adven-tures, provides day trips inside Western North Carolina in as-sociation with the nonprofit Blue Ridge Heritage Tours, whose motive is to “connect individuals with WNC communities, and take them outside.”
WHERE’VE YOU BEEN? “Around here, my all time favor-ite places is Black Balsam on the Blue Ridge Parkway, a mountain
with balsam trees and covered in wild blueberries in August and September.
LIKE: It’s accessible and not a strenuous hike.
WHERE ELSE: The hike I really love is the Art Loeb Trail, which winds its way through Shin-ing Rock Wilderness, off Cold Mountain fame.
It starts at a Daniel Boone Boy Scout camp outside of Brevard, N.C. and the pinnacle is Shining Rock itself, which is a huge quartz rock which just jumps into view after winding through the trail for many miles.
LIKE: “I like clearing the bend and coming face to face with an enormous crystal. It seems like a Lord of the Rings movie, it feels like a mecca. It reminds one of the beauty all around us, if we seek to observe.”
ANYWHERE ELSE? “Yes, I like camping in the Nantahala Forest and taking people to the

Evans

Checotah Parkway, which is the unknown parkway that is like the Blue Ridge Parkway. I also love guiding people to six waterfalls in one day, including Pearson’s Falls here in Tryon, which is a really special place to me.”
