Tryon Estates employees Francisco Paquito Dona and Johnny Cochran were recently deployed to Afghanistan as members of an Air Force detachment. Therefore, Tryon Estates residents Paul Sutherland and Ralph Collins assembled a group of neighbors to collect items, including greeting cards from everyone at Tryon Estates, to create a morale boosting mailer. The two packages also contained Girl Scout cookies and two Grandmas of New England coffeecakes from their hometown. The soldiers conveyed that they were overwhelmed with the expressions of admiration and well-wishes. (photo and article submitted by Kiernan Wilkins)

sheds sediment problems.The purpose of this project is
to identify/prioritize the stressors (like sediment or nutrient pol-lution, storm water runoff or erosion), which degrade water quality and to specify feasible initiatives that would address these problems while allowing sustainable development, out-door recreation, business and residential life to prosper, Co-nard told commissioners. The project also hopes to improve public involvement and interest in this relatively intact and high quality natural resource.
The grant was received from the N.C. Department of Envi-ronment and Natural Resources (DENR) with IPDC administer-ing the funds and Altamont En-vironmental Engineering imple-menting the study to document the condition of the waterways.
Conard said because of the modest funding, the focus of the study would remain in Polk County, beginning at the Nar-rows on the Green River, con-tinuing into Lake Adger and ending soon after the Turner Shoals Dam. GRWA is provid-ing volunteer man-hours, com-munity outreach and kayaks to assist with the assessment.
Polk County owns the Lake Adger basin with plans to use the lake as a future drinking water reservoir. The Green River Watershed is a sub-basin of the Broad River basin, with 42 percent of the watershed located in Polk County (36,825 acres) and 58 percent of the watershed located in Henderson County (50,645 acres), according to Conards presentation.
Study results will be made public information through a study website and could be used to supplement the N.C. Depart-ment of Water Quality Broad River Basin-wide Plan report due out in 2013-2014, Conard said.
Conard said it is her hope that the Green River assessment will mark the beginning of needed protection, restoration and revi-talization of the countys water-

ways in the name of clean water.The data that will be gener-
ated from this grant will speak to the present conditions of the river and Lake Adger after 88 years (Green River was damned in 1925) and could justify ap-plication for further grant funds for more clean water projects and opportunities, Conard said, including public watershed edu-cation, bank/buffer stabilization projects, water quality monitor-ing or establishing a public gre-enway/riverside park with ame-nities like canoe/kayak access, soccer fields, picnic/camping and environmental educational center.
Conard asked commissioners for their support and endorse-ment of the grant and its long-term purpose to pursue healthy, viable water resources within the county.
She added that the GRWA intends to begin a Green River Watershed project fund to help pay for the efforts.
Polk County citizens need clean-sustainable waters, eco-recreational business success depends on clean water, rec-reational users come to where there is clean water and GRWA was born to promote a plan to work for this, Conard said. The Green River and Lake Adger our water resources are our economy, so investing in them is investing into Polk County.
Conard said the project has the support of Green River Ad-ventures and Green River Cano-py/Zip Line in Saluda, the Pisgah Chapter of Trout Unlimited and the Pacolet Area Conservancy.
Some commissioners last year rode on a boat tour of Lake Adger, which aimed to point out land loss resulting from erosion and sedimentation issues.
Commissioner Ted Owens asked if Conard has worked with the Polk County Soil and Water District on the project. Conard said Sandra Reid (soil and water director) and the soil and water department would be involved with the assessment project.
The grant deadline to compile the report is due in September.
Conard asked anyone with historical pictures or observa-tions about the Green River or Lake Adger to please send the
information to Natalie Bouchard with Altamont Environmental by email at [email protected].

ObituariesHomer C. Carder
Homer Clint Carder, Jr., 91, of Columbus, passed away peacefully in his sleep on April 24, 2013. He was a resident of Tryon Estates.
Mr. Carder was born in Tarrant, Ala. on March 2, l922. He was the son of Homer C. Carder and Lex Ingram Carder.
Like his father, brother and sister he graduated from Auburn Univer-sity. He earned a degree in chemical engineering in 1943. He was active in the ROTC and was a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity.
Shortly after graduation Mr. Carder joined the United States Army and served as an Air Ob-servation pilot for the 209th Field
Artillery Battalion. He saw action in the Euro-pean, African and Mid-dle Eastern Theaters
before his discharge from active duty in 1946 as a First Lieutenant.
Upon completion of his military service, Mr. Carder joined the Mon-santo Chemical Company in 1946. He had a very successful career at Monsanto, the only job he ever had, eventually retiring from that com-pany in 1982 as a senior executive in St. Louis, Mo. He traveled the world for Monsanto advising on new plant construction, including visits to Russia and China during the midst of the Cold War.
In 1983 he moved from St. Louis to Tryon, with his wife Nadine L. Wendy Carder. Mr. Carder enjoyed a passion for golf and they built a home in Red Fox Country Club adjacent to the 13th green. He had a very active retirement, working first for H &
R Block, and then volunteering extensively. He was president of the American Heart Association of Polk County, a mediator in family and civil disputes, and a director in the Rotary. He served two terms as president of the Congregation of The Congregational Church UCC of Tryon. Appropriately he was awarded Tryons Second Wind Hall of Fame for his extensive volunteer efforts.
He and Wendy were avid gour-mets and traveled to Europe where they were trained in the culinary arts at world-renown cooking schools. They loved to entertain and had many parties focusing on their cooking and fine wines. Mr. Carder was a Certified Barbeque Judge and traveled regionally to competitions.
Mr. Carder is survived by his wife of 46 years, Wendy Carder; a son, Stephen Carder, of South Pasa-dena, Fla.; a sister, Sue Chichester of Spanish Fort, Ala.; stepsons, Greg Bowcott of San Diego, Cali. and Randy Bowcott of Waukegan, Ill.; three grandsons, one grand-daughter, two great-grandsons, and several nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his par-ents; his brother, Eugene D. Carder and daughter, Carolyn Carder.
Burial services will be private. A Celebration of Life honoring Mr. Carder will take place on May 4 at 4 p.m. at Tryon Estates in Columbus, with a reception to follow.
The family suggests that me-morial tributes be made to The Alzheimers Association, The Hospice of the Carolina Foothills or The Congregational Church UCC, Tryon.

Tryon Hounds ride in a recent hunter pace. (photo by Don West.)
A beautiful Spring day and 136 riders made for another successful Tryon Hounds Hunter Pace.
The group was certainly smiled upon this rain date for our Spring Hunter Pace Event held on Sunday, April 14. The sun shone just enough in the morning and a gentle cloud in the afternoon kept the day from being too warm. It was evident that spring had arrived as the countryside was bursting in bloom and the carpet of green was everywhere. It afforded the opportune time for 136 riders to challenge the perfect hunter pace course over Caro-land Farms, newly acquired by Jay and Cornelia Alexander and Bob and Pat Jordan. Areas of the course also included NPA and the Slater property of Cherry Hill and North Carolina Pond. The checkpoint enjoyed a view from John and Jane Gallaghers farm.
The team of Amy Gantt and Lisa Tyler took home the blue ribbon for first place in the field hunter division and Nancy Fin-kell and Bobby Turner placed first in the trail rider division. Roberta McKinney and Steph-anie Schulte won the Tryon Hounds trophies for the Tryon Hounds member with the best times in the field hunter and trail riders division respectively.
The course designed primar-ily by Dean McKinney, MFH for the Tryon Hounds, and Nelson Minnick, president of the Tryon Hounds board of directors. They worked together to make sure all the accesses of these properties were taken advantage of includ-ing the new owners of Thanks-giving Hill, Alan and Jenny Tay-lor. Mike Axelrod with his GPS kept track of the mileage along with joining the job of clearing and marking trails.
Anne Pierce, as always, did a great job taking entries, checking Coggins papers and making sure all releases were signed. Riders generously gave $2 in addition to their entry fee towards PEER Polk Equine Emergency Rescue fund.
Riders made their way to the starting line to the infamous Joey Cabaniss who gave instruc-tions for starting and where they would be finishing, plus other little tid bits in Joey fashion. Don West had a big job in helping to direct the parking of the many trailers as they seemed to come all at once.
Grill masters Kerry Holm-berg, Jordan Hicks and Richard Pierce made sure all were served their choice of hamburgers or hot dogs with helpers Wes Sweet,

Historic Greenspace of Fairview will be the setting for the annual Steps to HOPE Hunter Pace this Sunday, May 5. This sanctioned event will be held on more than 1,300 acres of the former Del Guer-cio thoroughbred horse training fa-cility including the existing racetrack and exercise trails. There are more than 20 miles of exclusive trails by a lake, streams, open land and hard-wood forests. More than 125 riders and horses are expected for a unique day of hunter pace competition.
Rachel Ramsey, executive direc-tor of Steps to HOPE said, We are so grateful to the generous owners of Greenspace of Fairview and Golden Hills of Fairview for giving the public an opportunity to ride their land to support Steps to HOPE. Because of their ongoing generosity we are better able to provide shelter, counsel and support to the commu-nitys victims of abuse and domestic violence.
Volunteers from the upstate of South Carolina and Polk County will begin registering competitors and directing trailer parking at 9 a.m. The official start of the pace begins at 10 a.m. late competitors may start the ride at 2 p.m. A luncheon donated by The Hare and Hound and Costco is included in the entry fee, carrots are provided for all horses and riders of all capabilities and disciplines are encouraged to compete.
The hunter pace is designed to replicate the original Foxhunt by having riders compete over terrain in a safe and disciplined manner. Winners of the pace are determined by those closest to an optimum time set by a staff rider before the event. There are two categories of entrants; the field hunter division for faster riders and with small obstacles for jumping more closely representing Foxhunting. Trail rider winners are determined by an average of all trail riders times. The hunter pace is a fun way to get out and about with horses, enjoy trails one would normally not have access to and compete in a friendly game.
Safety rules are always enforced and riders must wear hard hats and have negative Coggins for their mounts. For more information, visit
the official Western Carolina Hunter Pace website at www.WCHPace.org.

Jen Hicks and Anita Williamson. Roberta McKinneys brownies were quite popular and did not last long and the same was true for Stephanie Schulte deviled eggs. The flowers that decorated the table were beautifully ar-ranged by Stephanie Schultes.
At the midway point, all rid-ers were greeted by Skip Leck and Jim Sumrell at the check point located on the Gallagher farm. Water and juice were of-fered for the brief check before
Hounds(Continued from page 6)
riders were sent off to finish the course and back to Joey.
The course was ridden and timed by Tryon Hounds Whip-per-In, Kasey Minnick, for a time of 1 hour 23 minutes. Beau-tifully done! Unless proven otherwise, Bonnie Lingerfelt had the fastest time.

When government wants to do something, such as raise your property taxes, itmust let citizens know. Now that right is being threatened by proposed legislationin Raleigh to do away with the requirement to run public notices in your localnewspaper - where people actually notice them.
Instead, they would be buried on some government website that most citizensnever visit. That means you may never know what your local government was up to.And what you don't know can hurt you.
But there is a better way. Tell your legislator to support HB 723 and vote againstHB 504, HB 755, SB 287 and SB 186.

The BeauTy of auTumn Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The first day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemi-sphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, au-tumn in the Northern Hemisphere falls in the months of September, October, November, and sometimes early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are just the opposite; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to
the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activi-ties, such as hay rides and camp fires, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

The human Tongue
a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!
The human tongue is responsible for three major func-tions: the sense of taste, to aid in speech, and to help digest food. The tongue is comprised mainly of muscle cells, along with glands, fatty tissue, and sensory cells (taste buds). The tongues roll in digestion is the delivery of food into the esophagus; when you swallow it helps to push the food down. To aid in speech, the tongue touches different parts of the mouth, such as the teeth, or the roof of the mouth, to create different sounds. The sense of taste allows us to enjoy, or to stay away from, certain foods. The tongue has tiny receptors in it called taste buds. These taste buds allow us to sense the five types of taste: sweet, sour (or acid), bitter, salty, and the recently discovered umami (found mainly in Japanese cuisine). It has long been theorized that certain areas of the tongue are responsible for tasting different things. Scientists have now discovered that this is not entirely true. Certain areas of the tongue are better at sensing different tastes, but all
taste buds can sense the five types of taste. The tip of the tongue is best at tasting sweets. The sides of our tongue are good at tasting sour things, such as lemons. The base of the tongue is best at tasting bit-ter foods, and salt is best tasted right behind the tip, or just beyond the sweet taste buds. Umami, which is the taste of amino acids, or glutamate, has not been placed on the taste map, since it is newly discov-ered. As time goes by, taste buds diminish in number; hence, a younger person has a stronger sense of taste than an elderly person. This is most likely the reason that many adults enjoy things with stronger tastes, such as coffee, than children who prefer sweets do.

tongues to sweat? Dogs do not have sweat glands like
humans, so they use their tongues and the pads of their feet to
release heat.
Did you know that it is true that if you stick your tongue to a cold, metal pole in the winter it will stick

The Island of Madagascar The African Island of Madagascar, located in the Indian Ocean, is approximately 250 miles away from the African mainland. The country closest to the island is Mozambique and the two countries are separated by a body of water in the Indian Ocean known as the Mozambique Channel. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, measur-ing almost 1,000 miles in length and 350 miles wide at its widest point. The Capital of Madagascar is Antananarivo. The Republic of Madagascar also includes several smaller, adjacent islands. The island has several different climate zones which include the tropical rains of the northwest, the dry southern area, and wet and hot western area. The island has mountains, ridges, and valleys that separate these different areas. The tallest moun-tain found in Madagascar is Mount Maromokotro, which is 9,436 feet above sea level. The people of Madagascar are considered to be members of the African community, but their origins are more closely related to Indonesia. They are referred to as being Mala-gasy--a name that refers to both the people and the native language. The other official language is French. Madagascars primary industry is farming; rice is the primary food staple. Vanilla and coffee are produced for export; Madagascar produces more vanilla than any other country in the world. Today, Madagascar is a multi-party republic, but it was at one time a French territory. Perhaps the most famous inhabitants of Madagascar are not people, but the animals that are native to the island. The lemurs of Madagascar are small, tree-dwelling primates that are not found naturally in any other habitat in the world. Another animal, found only on the Island of Madagascar, is the fossa. The fossa is a meat-eating animal, much like a large cat. It is one of the lemurs natural enemies. Some of the oldest dinosaur fossils in the world have been found on Madagascar.

A speCiAl thAnk You to All our sponsors!
Money, or currency, is something that is used as a medium of exchange. Over the centuries, money has come in all different shapes and sizes. In the United States today, the dollar is the primary form of currency in circulation. Until recent decades, most types of monies have almost always been made from, or backed by, a precious metal. This means that the coins themselves have been made from silver or gold, or that there were precious metals in a reserve to back up the worth of the money. In 1900, the United States Government passed the Gold Standard Act. For every paper dollar that existed, a certain amount of gold was kept in storage by the U.S. Government. In 1933, the Unit-ed States began moving away from the gold standard, because it restricted the number of dollars that could be produced. Todays dollars, like most currencies, are called fiat money which means they are backed by peoples faith in government and not metals. Every country uses some form of currency. Many countries have dropped their own form of currency in favor of using the American dollar. This is known as dollarization. In Europe, the primary form of currency in 16 major countries since 1999 is the euro. The United Kingdom still uses the pound system. Canada and Australia call their currencies a dollar like the United States, but they are separate from the U.S. system. Other coun-tries have different names for their money. Brazil has the real; Mexico has the peso; China has the yuan; Japan has the yen; Russia has the ruble; and South Africa has the rand.

The BeauTy of auTumn Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The first day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemi-sphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, au-tumn in the Northern Hemisphere falls in the months of September, October, November, and sometimes early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are just the opposite; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to
the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activi-ties, such as hay rides and camp fires, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

The human Tongue
a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!
The human tongue is responsible for three major func-tions: the sense of taste, to aid in speech, and to help digest food. The tongue is comprised mainly of muscle cells, along with glands, fatty tissue, and sensory cells (taste buds). The tongues roll in digestion is the delivery of food into the esophagus; when you swallow it helps to push the food down. To aid in speech, the tongue touches different parts of the mouth, such as the teeth, or the roof of the mouth, to create different sounds. The sense of taste allows us to enjoy, or to stay away from, certain foods. The tongue has tiny receptors in it called taste buds. These taste buds allow us to sense the five types of taste: sweet, sour (or acid), bitter, salty, and the recently discovered umami (found mainly in Japanese cuisine). It has long been theorized that certain areas of the tongue are responsible for tasting different things. Scientists have now discovered that this is not entirely true. Certain areas of the tongue are better at sensing different tastes, but all
taste buds can sense the five types of taste. The tip of the tongue is best at tasting sweets. The sides of our tongue are good at tasting sour things, such as lemons. The base of the tongue is best at tasting bit-ter foods, and salt is best tasted right behind the tip, or just beyond the sweet taste buds. Umami, which is the taste of amino acids, or glutamate, has not been placed on the taste map, since it is newly discov-ered. As time goes by, taste buds diminish in number; hence, a younger person has a stronger sense of taste than an elderly person. This is most likely the reason that many adults enjoy things with stronger tastes, such as coffee, than children who prefer sweets do.

The Island of Madagascar The African Island of Madagascar, located in the Indian Ocean, is approximately 250 miles away from the African mainland. The country closest to the island is Mozambique and the two countries are separated by a body of water in the Indian Ocean known as the Mozambique Channel. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, measur-ing almost 1,000 miles in length and 350 miles wide at its widest point. The Capital of Madagascar is Antananarivo. The Republic of Madagascar also includes several smaller, adjacent islands. The island has several different climate zones which include the tropical rains of the northwest, the dry southern area, and wet and hot western area. The island has mountains, ridges, and valleys that separate these different areas. The tallest moun-tain found in Madagascar is Mount Maromokotro, which is 9,436 feet above sea level. The people of Madagascar are considered to be members of the African community, but their origins are more closely related to Indonesia. They are referred to as being Mala-gasy--a name that refers to both the people and the native language. The other official language is French. Madagascars primary industry is farming; rice is the primary food staple. Vanilla and coffee are produced for export; Madagascar produces more vanilla than any other country in the world. Today, Madagascar is a multi-party republic, but it was at one time a French territory. Perhaps the most famous inhabitants of Madagascar are not people, but the animals that are native to the island. The lemurs of Madagascar are small, tree-dwelling primates that are not found naturally in any other habitat in the world. Another animal, found only on the Island of Madagascar, is the fossa. The fossa is a meat-eating animal, much like a large cat. It is one of the lemurs natural enemies. Some of the oldest dinosaur fossils in the world have been found on Madagascar.

Money, or currency, is something that is used as a medium of exchange. Over the centuries, money has come in all different shapes and sizes. In the United States today, the dollar is the primary form of currency in circulation. Until recent decades, most types of monies have almost always been made from, or backed by, a precious metal. This means that the coins themselves have been made from silver or gold, or that there were precious metals in a reserve to back up the worth of the money. In 1900, the United States Government passed the Gold Standard Act. For every paper dollar that existed, a certain amount of gold was kept in storage by the U.S. Government. In 1933, the Unit-ed States began moving away from the gold standard, because it restricted the number of dollars that could be produced. Todays dollars, like most currencies, are called fiat money which means they are backed by peoples faith in government and not metals. Every country uses some form of currency. Many countries have dropped their own form of currency in favor of using the American dollar. This is known as dollarization. In Europe, the primary form of currency in 16 major countries since 1999 is the euro. The United Kingdom still uses the pound system. Canada and Australia call their currencies a dollar like the United States, but they are separate from the U.S. system. Other coun-tries have different names for their money. Brazil has the real; Mexico has the peso; China has the yuan; Japan has the yen; Russia has the ruble; and South Africa has the rand.
