Craft Beer Scene 

king. Pilsners tend to be very 

popular, too; and recently there 

are more and more people asking 

for sours and fruit varieties on draft. 

Today’s craft beer scene is 

overwhelming. Even for those with 

a grasp on hop varieties and local 

breweries, combing through a tap 

list can induce decision paralysis. 

But if there’s one thing that should 

guide an order, it’s freshness. Draft 

beer has long been heralded as the 

best option, whether for mouthfeel, 

pressure control or a foamy head. 

Now that so many craft breweries 

are choosing cans over bottles 

and kegs, is draft still considered 

“better?” 

The answer, it turns out, isn’t so 

clear cut. Style — specifically when 

it relates to a beer’s hop content — 

influences the shelf life of a beer, 

as does packaging. 

Bobbie Atkins, representative with 

R&D Brewing/Bull Durham Beer Co 

a local craft beer brewery explains: 

Is draft beer always better? Draft 

beer is definitely better than 

bottled, but canned can be better 

than draft. It depends. If you look at 

trends, locally and nationally, most 

breweries are moving to canning 

beers. What that allows for is a 

proper seal. Even in a glass bottle, 

oxygen can leak in. So flushing cans 

with carbon dioxide and sealing 

a beer shut keeps it fresher for 

longer. Cans also prevent light from 

getting in, which can be an issue 

with bottles, even brown bottles. 

Light and oxygen are the enemies 

of beer. 

Draft beers usually move faster, 

and if you’re replacing kegs more 

often, that usually means fresher 

beer. So, in terms of quality and 

turnover, it’s draft, then cans, then 

bottles. 

Are there particular styles that 

move faster than others? IPA‘s are 

Generally speaking, for an IPA, 

you want to consume it within a 

month of it being brewed. Hop 

quality begins to fade after about 

30 days. 

Are local beers usually indicative 

of freshness? Yes and no. Local 

beer has a tendency to be more 

fresh, but it has to be good beer 

to be fresh enough that you’ll go 

through kegs of it. 

What sort of questions should 

someone ask a bartender in order 

to get the best or freshest beer? 

Let the bartender know what type of 

beer you like. Knowing what kind of 

beer you like gives the bartender a 

starting point, even if it’s Heineken 

or Guinness. Any good beer bar 

will allow you a few tastes before 

deciding on a beer. 

According to Bobbie Atkins, 

choosing the right bar is also really 

important. You want a staff that’s 

casual and approachable and 

knowledgeable, not snooty. In 

Seven Lakes these craft beers can 

be found at the Lakehouse, Shell 

Friendly Mart and the Sandhills 

Winery. The Resolution beer the 

golfers beer can be found locally at 

Foxfire Resort and Pinewild CC. 

Their Flagship beer “Seven 

Saturdays“ an IPA @6.8 ABV you 

can always enjoy at “Seven Lakes.“ 

The Flagship beer won a Silver 

Medal at the US Open Beer 

Championship. The brewing 

company also brews Storm Beer 

for the Carolina Hurricanes hockey 

team. 

So when you are out and about in 

Seven Lakes make sure you try one 

of these awesome beers

Seven Lakes residents are urged 

to contribute an unwrapped toy to 

the “Toys For Tots”, program with 

so many families in need in Moore 

County. 

The Seven Lakes News has arranged 

with the program to offer 

numerous drop off locations 

throughout Moore County. Our 

family has been involved with this 

program since the late 1980’s. 

The program began as a Los Angeles 

charitable effort in 1947. 

Major Bill Hendricks, USMCR, was 

inspired by his wife Diane when 

she tried to donate a homemade 

Rag-gedy Ann doll to a needy child 

but couldn’t find any organization 

to do so. 

At her suggestion he gathered a 

NOVEMBER 9th 

group of local local Marine reservists, 

including Lieutenant Colonel 

John Hampton, who coordinated 

and collected some 5,000 toys for 

local children that year from collection 

bins placed outside of Warner 

Bros. movie theaters. 

Their efforts were so successful 

that, in 1948, Toys for Tots was 

launched as a national campaign. 

Hendrix used his position as director 

of Public Relations for Warner 

Brothers Studio to enlist celebrity 

support, as well as have Walt 

Disney Studios design the red toy 

train logo. 

The new toys collected are redistributed 

within each county to ensure 

they are kept within the local 

community, said Gunnery Sgt. 

Robert Patterson, Toys for Tots 

representative. 

The program is designed for the 

children to have something to 

open on “Christmas,” Patterson 

said. “If the family is struggling financially 

or lost their jobs, we help 

them with toys, and our homeless 

and foster chil-dren are not forgotten 

either.” 

Donating money or toys can make 

the holiday season for children a 

very happy time. 

“All toy donations will go to Moore 

County kids with families in need 

this Christmas Season. 



Military Families To Go 

Hungry At Thanksgiving? 

Awaiting the arrival of the Feeding 

San Diego truck that gives out free 

groceries every other week the 

vast majority are the husbands 

and wives of U.S. military service 

members. 

I knew we wouldn‘t be wealthy, 

but I thought it would be a lot 

more manageable, said Desiree 

Mieir, a mother of four whose Navy 

husband‘s most recent deployment 

lasted almost eight months. Mieir 

can‘t afford cable and often leaves 

her home‘s air conditioning shut off 

to keep her utility bill down. I didn‘t 

know I‘d have to try this hard. 

To make ends meet, Mieir and 

thousands of other military families 

around the country routinely rely on 

federal food assistance, charities 

or loans from family. Their struggles 

are caused by a variety of factors: 

the high cost of living in cities like 

San Diego, difficulty qualifying 

for federal food assistance, and 

a transient life that makes it 

challenging for spouses to build 

careers. Dan Mieir, her husband, 

works in Naval communications 

and makes $34,279 in basic pay 

before taxes. That‘s just under the 

federal poverty line for a family of 

six in most of the country 

Data obtained on 2018-19 school 

year, a third of children at DODrun 

schools on military bases in 

the United States — more than 

6,500 children — were eligible for 

free or reduced lunches. At one 

base — Georgia‘s Fort Stewart — 

65 percent were eligible. 2017 

data from an annual Census 

Bureau survey showed that more 

than 16,000 active-duty service 

members received food stamps, 

known as the Supplemental 

Nutrition Assistance Program, or 

SNAP. 

I think it is a national outrage,“ Sen. 

Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., a former 

army helicopter pilot, said. Can you 

imagine being deployed and you‘re 

in the Persian Gulf, or you‘re in 

Iraq right now, and you‘re worried 

whether or not your kids are able to 

have a meal? We‘re willing to spend 

hundreds and hundreds of millions 

of dollars on a fighter jet — which I 

want our troops to have — to carry 

them into battle, Duckworth said. 

But if the people that are working 

on them can‘t focus on turning the 

wrenches and maintaining the 

equipment because they‘re worried 

whether or not their kids are 

hungry, what‘s the point of having 

that fighter jet? 

When she‘s not getting free food 

from Feeding San Diego, Carlisle 

normally shops at the military 

commissary, which is tax-free, or 

at Ralph‘s, a grocery store in San 

Diego where purchases of food 

accrue points she can use on gas. 

You don‘t need to decide, do I 

need gas, or do I need food? If you 

sneeze hard, a flat tire goes out, 

that‘s it, she said. 

The lower-ranked enlisted service 

members in all branches, those 

with pay grades from E-1 to 

E-5, make somewhere between 

$18,648 and $40,759 in basic pay, 

depending on their rank and years 

of service. 

Operation Homefront is a national 

nonprofit whose mission is to build 

strong, stable, and secure military 

families so they can thrive — not 

simply struggle to get by — in the 

communities they have worked so 

hard to protect. 

At Operation Homefront, 92 

percent of expenditures goes 

directly toward delivering programs 

and services to the military families 

who need it most.

Babe Ruth Bat 

Going To Auction 

The bat used by Babe Ruth to slug 

his 500th career home run in 1929 

is going up for auction, nearly 75 

years after he gave it to a friend 

whose family has kept it ever since. 

Ruth became the first player to 

reach the coveted plateau on Aug. 

11, 1929, hitting a solo shot for the 

New York Yankees off Willis Hudlin 

at League Park in Cleveland. 

In the mid-1940s, Ruth gave the 

bat to his friend Jim Rice, who was 

mayor of Suffern, New York. Ruth 

and Rice enjoyed golfing, bowling 

and dining together, and Ruth 

was a regular visitor to the Rice 

household, where he came to know 

Jim‘s wife, Ethyl, and their children. 

Terry Rice, an attorney in Suffern 

and Jim‘s only son, is selling the 

bat. Born two years after Ruth 

died in 1948, Rice more closely 

associates Mickey Mantle and Yogi 

Berra with the Yankees of his youth, 

but he remembers Ruth‘s bat sat in 

the corner behind the television in 

the family‘s den. 

It was always there. It was part of 

life. No one said I couldn‘t touch 

it. I never took it out and played 

baseball with it.“ 

Good thing, too, since the bat 

was recently authenticated and 

received the highest grade given. 

It‘s in perfect condition. 

The Louisville Slugger shows marks 

on the upper barrel where Ruth 

knocked mud off his cleats. The 

left barrel has impressions where 

the bat made contact with the ball. 

There‘s also a bit of green paint 

from where the bat rested in the 

dugout between uses. 

Babe Ruth is the king of the 

sports collectibles marketplace, 

SCP Auctions President David 

Kohler said. When a fresh Ruth 

item of such quality and historical 

importance as this one surfaces, it 

generates tremendous excitement 

throughout our industry. 

Ruth‘s 500th homer cleared the 

right-field wall in Cleveland, sailed 

out of the park and rolled down 

Lexington Avenue, where it was 

plucked by an Indians fan. After 

the game, the ball was returned to 

Ruth in exchange for $20 and his 

autograph. 

It would be another 16 years before 

Mel Ott became the second player 

to reach 500 homers in 1945. 

After Jim Rice died in 1983, his wife 

kept possession of the bat until her 

death in 1997. Then it passed to 

Terry Rice and was stashed in a 

closet. 

You couldn‘t leave it out, Rice said. 

I wasn‘t enjoying it. I got to the point 

where we were worried about it.“ 

Rice, 69, talked to his two older 

sisters before deciding to sell. They 

plan to split the proceeds. 

Officials from SCP Auctions in 

Laguna Niguel, California, estimate 

the bat could sell for over $1 million. 

SCP sold Ruth‘s bat used to homer 

on Opening Day of the 1923 

season at Yankee Stadium for 

$1.26 million in 2004. Rice said he 

hopes the Yankees or the Baseball 

Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New 

York, would be interested in the bat. 

Online bidding begins Nov. 27th.

Traffic delays in and around 

Seven Lakes won‘t be getting any 

better now that the 211 widening 

project has been postponed and 

put on hold. NC DOT has recently 

announced that approximately 

900 highway construction and 

resurfacing projects including the 

road widening project here in West 

End which was scheduled to begin 

in 2020 are presently on hold due 

to financial constraints. 

DOT claims a deficit on a rash of 

storm related events including 

Hurricanes Florence and Matthew 

which took annual weather related 

road repairs from an average of 

$65 mm to an unprecedented level 

of approximately $220 million. 

How this shortfall will be corrected 

remains to be seen. NCDOT’s main 

source of funding which include tax 

revenues may fall short as fuel tax 

revenues, the biggest source for 

DOT’s funding, continue to decline 

with vehicles becoming more fuelefficient 

and people driving less. 

That won’t make closing the the 

gap in DOT’s shortfall very easy to 

correct and overcome. 

The lack of funding and the 

beginning of road widening work 

for the local Hwy 211 improvement 

project must be considered by the 

new golf tournaments in 2022 with 

the US Women’s Open and the 

prestigious US Open in 2024. The 

delay is also a consequence of the 

timing of these two golf events and 

the massive traffic flow that will 

transpire locally. 

Most important to Seven Lakes 

residents is the fact that the 

eyesore that is present to the 

“Gateway To Seven Lakes” which 

is under contract will continue to 

progress. 

The Stanley Furniture plant will 

be demolished and will stay on 

schedule until completion.

You know what they say about land: 

They ain’t making any more of it! 

There are many ways to generate 

income from real estate. 

If you’ve owned your home for 

several years and have not been 

tapping the equity you may be 

sitting on a gold mine. There are 

several ways to convert home 

equity into retirement income. You 

may want to take advantage of 

them early in your retirement or 

save them until later. 

Auto Dent Removal 

With state of the art technology in

surface free from dirt, grease and any 

other material to ensure that nothing 

gets in the way of the perfect paint

Whether it’s a scratch or a rust spot our 

experienced team knows exactly what 

they are doing to ensure that your car 

looks good as new. 

Also keep family members in mind. 

If you have aging parents who are 

sitting on a ton of equity but have 

little current income, why preserve 

your inheritance when your parents 

need the money now? You can help 

them by looking into one of the home 

equity conversion strategies to be 

discussed, perhaps even keeping 

the financing within the family to 

save fees and get tax benefits for 

yourself. If you do decide to enter 

into a loan arrangement with your 

parents, make sure you comply 

with all the tax laws.

My wife and I planned a trip to look for a retirement home in Virginia and North Carolina, we enlisted the help of 5 agents along the 

route. Toward the end of the trip I came across a home in Seven Lakes. After convincing my wife to go a little further into NC, I 

called Beverly, who was not an agent we had on our list. Beverly was the consumate PROFESSIONAL and agreed to meet us on less 

than 8 hours notice. She was extremely knowlegeable about the property and Seven Lakes. We finalized a contract on the house. 

The purchase was not an easy one, in fact we actually gave up on the property for a period of 1 month. Beverly handled all road 

blocks with the utmost professionalism and was ALWAYS ON OUR SIDE. If you are looking for "THE" agent to handle your real

Dollar Store, Dollar Store.. 

Everywhere A Dollar Store 

Dollar stores are everywhere in the 

United States today and depending 

on where you live, you could even 

have more than one on your street. 

Whether its Dollar Tree, Family 

Dollar, Dollar General, or some 

random 99 cent store, the dollar 

store business is booming. 

When my husband Rick and I lived 

in Lake Tahoe, CA the closest 

dollar store was in Reno, NV so we 

decided to open a dollar store we 

named “$1 Depot.” I managed 

the store while Rick remained 

with his real estate development 

company. Our friends thought it 

would be a flop but it was a hit and 

I opened several other stores for 

our company until we sold them 4 

years later. 

The stores offered all of the dollar 

store items with the exception of 

food to the background sounds 

of the Beach boys. Everything 

from wine glasses to sunglasses 

that we purchased on trips down 

to Los Angeles to order with split 

container loads from China. Most 

of the research that was done for 

this story I became aware of for the 

first time since we sold the stores 

in 2004. 

Ready for some mind-blowing 

statistics? There are more 

dollar stores in the United States 

today than McDonald‘s and they 

outnumber Walmart and Starbucks 

— combined! 

While these stores where 

everything cost a dollar (or just a 

few dollars) are great for picking 

up random odds and ends, they‘re 

far from perfect. Stroll through the 

aisles of any dollar store and you‘ll 

notice pretty quickly just how much 

plastic is on the shelves which 

may contain hazardous chemical 

by products. In May 2019, Dollar 

Tree — which owns Family Dollar, 

Dollar General, and the 99 Cents 

Only Store — said that it would work 

to phase out lead and dangerous 

chemicals from its products. 

Too many dollar stores concentrated 

in a single area doesn‘t just impact 

local business; it can also have a 

negative impact on a community‘s 

health. Many dollar stores don‘t 

carry produce or offer the option of 

grocery delivery to senior citizens, 

and when they force smaller 

grocery stores to close they create 

food deserts. 

When Dollar General moved into 

Haven KS, Foodliner Grocery saw 

its customer base dwindle and 

within a few years had to shut down. 

Foodliner‘s story is a common one 

in regards to the rise of dollar stores 

across the United States. 

Dollar stores can be fantastic places 

for buying things like greeting cards 

for that relative you only see once a 

decade. Some of those dollar deals 

though really just aren‘t so great. 

For example, you‘re probably better 

off shopping for things like vitamins 

at grocery stores and drug stores, 

rather than your local Dollar Tree. 

For all the negatives associated 

with the rapid growth of dollar 

stores, according to one survey, 

the majority of Americans still have 

a positive view of dollar stores — 

regardless of the dollar store brand.

One of the primary factors in 

determining the value of anything 

“silver” is whether it is made from 

sterling silver or if it is simply silver 

plate. 

Sterling silver consists of 92.5% 

pure silver and 7.5% copper alloy, 

while silver plate is comprised of a 

base metal such as copper, brass, 

or stainless steel that has been 

electroplated with sterling silver. 

Silver plate became popular in the 

late 1800s and made silverware 

more affordable for the masses. 

Sterling items are typically 

stamped with either “925” or the 

words “sterling” to indicate their 

composition. 

Pieces produced in Great Britain 

often have a small lion hallmark, in 

addition to other marks that may 

indicate the city, date, or maker. 

On the other hand, silver plate 

items may be stamped with “silver 

plate”, “EPNS” (Electro-plated 

Nickel Silver), or “German Silver”. 

Older pieces may exhibit wear 

spots from use, exposing the base 

metal beneath. They can be replated 

by a jeweler or even through 

“do-it-yourself” kits. 

Items made from sterling are 

always worth at least their value in 

silver, which is currently a bit more 

than $16 an ounce. 

Simply look-up “Scrap Silver 

Calculator” online and enter in the 

weight of your pieces to get a rough 

estimate of what’s called the “spot” 

value. 

If you decided to sell your sterling 

items for their silver value, be 

aware that a fee is usually charged 

for the transaction and to cover the 

cost of refining the metal. 

Both sterling and silver plate pieces 

can increase in value, depending 

upon the manufacturer or intricacy 

of the object. 

Silver items made by high-end 

designers such as Tiffany & Co., 

Cartier, Buccellati, and Georg 

Jensen can often command a 100 

% - 300% + premium above their 

scrap value. 

Some large and ornate silver plate 

centerpieces, desk accessories, 

and other decorative objects have 

potential to sell for hundreds or 

even thousands of dollars, too. 

So next time that you’re getting 

ready to use Grandma’s silver 

service, take a moment to turn it 

over and see what it’s made of. 

Its value might just surprise you.

Seven Lakes Performers In Sunrise Theatre‘s 

Production of the Live Community Radio Play, 

“It‘s A Wonderful Life“ 

The story is about a man who spent 

his life giving to the people of his 

hometown. When his world falls 

apart, he’s given the rare chance of 

seeing what life would be like if he 

had never been born. 

t’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio 

Play is based on the classic holiday 

movie with a clever twist thrown 

in: the story is staged as a live 

radio broadcast. Actors portray 

numerous characters, and sound 

effects. It’s a Wonderful Life is 

about the life of George Bailey, a 

generous and well-meaning man 

who has become too downcast and 

tired to continue living. 

It will take help from a lovable angel 

to show George what life would be 

like if he wasn’t born for George 

to have a change of heart and 

understand the true spirit of the 

holidays. 

Strange, isn‘t it? Each man‘s life 

touches so many other lives. When 

he isn‘t around he leaves an awful 

hole, doesn‘t he? 

Remember, George: no man is 

a failure who has friends. Great 

quotes from the movie. It‘s A 

Wonderful Life spoken by Clarence 

to George Bailey. 

The Sunrise Theater is a thriving 

entertainment center featuring first 

run and independent films, music 

concerts, local theater, and live 

broadcasts of the Met Opera and 

Bolshoi Ballet. The Sunrise Theater 

continues to be the cornerstone 

of theater arts and entertainment 

in the North Carolina Sandhills 

dedicated to serving the community. 

Adapted from Frank Capra’s holiday 

classic the Radio Play version, a 

1940’s radio station is the setting 

and actors are radio station 

employees and actors producing 

an old-fashioned radio show of the 

timeless story. 

This beloved American holiday 

classic comes to captivating life as 

a live 1940s radio broadcast. With 

the help of an ensemble that brings 

a few dozen characters to the stage, 

the story of idealistic George Bailey 

unfolds as he considers ending his 

life one fateful Christmas Eve. 

The cast of the Sunrise’s community 

theater production of It’s A 

Wonderful Life Radio Play is set 

with local actors Dustin Bonecutter 

as George Bailey, Jordan Cranford 

as Mary Hatch Bailey, and Eric 

VonSalzen as Clarence, the angel 

trying to earn his wings. The play is 

sponsored by McClain Drug. 

The radio station announcer, Peter 

Bailey and four other characters 

are all played by Patrick Kelly; 

Glenn Hussein portrays the evil Mr. 

Potter; Rebecca Mourouzis is Violet 

Bick; and Nick Dokich is Joseph, 

the angel guiding Clarence through 

his challenge. 

A talented group of young actors 

take on multiple roles with Sarah 

Archer as Young George and Janie; 

Quinn Augustine as Young Mary 

and Zuzu; Emma Spisak as Young 

Violet and Pete; and Stephen Makie 

is Young Harry and Tommy. 

Rounding out the cast are 

multitalented and versatile actors 

who are able to play numerous 

roles each, creating several 

personalities with only their voices. 

Randy Merritt is Mr. Gower, Uncle 

Billy, Ernie, Shultz and the sheriff; 

Jamie Barnes is Matilda, Ruth, Mrs. 

Hatch, Mrs. Thompson, and Sadie 

Vance; Loretta Aldridge is Rose, 

Charlie and the Bridge Keeper; and 

Michael Florence is Bert, Harry, 

Sam, Dr. Campbell, Martini, and 

Nick. 

The play is being co-directed by 

Sunrise House Managers Claire 

Sellers and Killian Poplyk. Claire 

holds a Bachelor of Arts in Stage 

Directing & Management from 

Greensboro College and was 

previously the Executive Intern with 

North Carolina Theatre Conference 

(NCTC). 

She has held various production 

roles at Triad Stage along with 

many theatrical credits in stage 

management, directing, house 

managing, and sound design. 

Killian has a B.A. in both Theatre 

Studies and Media Arts & 

Entertainment from Elon University 

and a Masters in Sound Design 

from Savannah College of Art & 

Design (SCAD). 

He’s worked in various technical 

roles for theatre productions and 

has years of experience as both 

a stage and voice actor. When 

he’s not house managing for the 

Sunrise, he’s whipping up trailers 

for upcoming Sunrise events. 

Seven Lakes resident Randy Merritt 

plays Mr. Gower. Randy is a retired 

television news/sports director 

who relocated to Seven Lakes from 

Charlotte in 2006. With his wife 

Ronda, he is the owner of Friendly 

Marts in Seven Lakes and Robbins. 

Although Randy has never acted 

before, he’s wanted to for 55 

years. His love of the story and the 

opportunity to be in a community 

theater production rekindled this 

aspiration. 

Michael Florence lives in Seven 

Lakes and is the owner of Record 

& Data Storage Solutions. He 

has announced for many local 

events over the years including 

Autumnfest, Chamber events, 

and Pinecrest Bandfest. He 

loves theatrical illusions and the 

challenge of bringing so many 

characters to life in one show. 

Michael Florence plays Bert in the 

Radio Play. 

“One of the best holiday shows 

around. This is a fresh and inventive 

way of reconnecting with a classic 

story of love and redemption.“

Serving 7 Lakes & Moore County, For Over Twenty Five Years


BEVERLY GENTRY 

My goal as a real estate professional 

is to establish a relationship with 

you that will continue for years to 

come. I treat every client with the 

same care and diligence I would 

use to successfully purchase or sell 

my own home. I am very grateful to 

those clients who have become 

friends or like family and have 

made me their Realtor of choice. 

I‘ve had the pleasure of helping 

hundreds of consumers with their 

real estate needs. My skill sets are 

varied from first-time home buyers, 

investors, builders and sellers 

across all price ranges. I started 

my real estate career at the bottom 

of the market. I take nothing for 

granted and have learned it doesn‘t 

matter how seasoned you may be 

as an agent, real estate is an ever 

changing business that requires 

out of the box thinking and true 

dedication. 

I am from the area originally and 

returned “home“ after living in 

multiple states across the country. 

When my husband and I decided to 

return to the area after starting our 

family, we knew Seven Lakes was 

the right choice for us. We both 

have incredible memories from 

our childhood growing up in the 

community and wanted the same 

for our children. 

The West side was not fully 

developed and Lake Auman did not 

yet exist. It‘s incredible to see that 

beautiful lake and recall what it was 

910-975-0399 

like before it 500303 was there. _ ADVANTAGE There were 

many nights of meeting up with the 

other neighborhood kids on what 

is now the island. We travel down 

memory lane often while enjoying 

the amenities with our children. It‘s 

funny the stories that are triggered 

seeing our children in the same 

settings we were in so many years 

ago as children ourselves. While I 

love all of Moore County and the 

other amazing communities we are 

so fortunate to have, Seven Lakes 

is special to my family. 

We own homes on the South and 

West side. My parents recently 

returned to the area and are 

residents on the North side. I am 

a Gold level Corporate Sponsor for 

West End Elementary PTA and also 

serve on the School Improvement 

Team. 

I love exploring all of Moore County 

with my clients. My seller clients 

find that I am communicative and 

fully understand trends in the 

market that will impact the sale of 

their homes. I work with each seller 

to customize a plan specific to their 

unique needs. For my buyer clients, 

I take the role of an adviser and 

guide the process based on their 

personality. 

I understand that sometimes a 

buyer or seller just aren‘t ready 

to get started but are seeking 

information without pressure. I‘m 

here to provide you with knowledge 

so that you can make an informed 

decision when the timing is right for 

you. I welcome your call to see how 

I can help you accomplish your real 

estate goals. 910-975-0399

While our dogs will be very unlikely 

to understand the meaning of the 

winter holiday season, there will 

often be guests visiting, and in the 

subsequent bustle, it will be easier 

for your dog to bring harm upon 

himself. Keeping in mind that the 

holidays can present dangers to 

dogs, and understanding what those 

dangers might be can help guarantee 

that your best friend will be in 

good shape to greet the New Year. 

Thanksgiving, Christmas and the 

holiday season in general will see 

a great deal of candy in evidence, 

including chocolates. Chocolate is 

poisonous to dogs - the problem 

element is theobromine, and it will 

not take much to make a dog sick, 

or even cause the dog’s death. The 

darker the chocolate, the more danger 

for your dog. 

Skip giving your best friend your fruit 

cake this year, too. Grapes and raisins 

are both poisonous to dogs. Any 

other cookie or cake that contains 

raisins, almonds, or currents should 

be on the forbidden list. Dieters who 

are substituting xylitol for sugar to 

save on calories should keep any 

treats prepared with this sweetener 

away from their dog. Xylitol will 

cause a rapid and potentially fatal 

drop in blood sugar in dogs. 

The holidays mean that a great deal 

of fatty food will be in evidence, and 

fat trimmed from ham, roasts, or 

the roast bird can pose problems for 

your dog. Too much fat can bring on 

an episode of pancreatitis, which is 

can also lodge in the esophagus. 

Those lovely snow globes often have 

an antifreeze-based fl uid inside 

them. If these break, a dog could lap 

up poison that could cause kidney 

failure. It’s no secret that people 

tend to consume a greater than 

normal amount of alcoholic beverages 

during the holidays, and some of 

these can be attractive to your dog, 

especially a drink like eggnog. Holiday 

punch may also smell good to a 

dog, so keep any drinks that contain 

alcohol well out of the dog’s reach. 

Puppies, and some older dogs, too, 

will often chew on electrical cords. 

While you may have taken care to 

keep your usual cords safe from 

canine teeth, lights on the tree and 

other decorations can present additional 

hazards, so take care to keep 

all pets away from electric cords. 

Don’t let your dog get lost outside 

during the holidays. With the arrival 

of company, the door will be open for 

much longer than it is usually, and a 

dog that has become nervous with 

all the new people and happenings 

may bolt out. 

Making sure that your dog is wearing 

his or her tags or has been 

micro-chipped are ways of assuring 

that you will get your lost pooch back 

as quickly as possible. Keeping your 

dog safe and healthy over the holiday 

season isn’t diffi cult; it just takes 

a bit of forethought and planning. 

The water in the reservoir is also a 

danger for cats. Sap from the tree

ILL GET YOU MORE ANIMAL STUFF FOR 

NEW SCRIPT FOR HUMANE SOCIETY 

Every year, hundreds of homeless 

animals pass through the doors of 

the Moore Humane Society’s “no-kill” 

shelter. Virtually all of these homeless, 

abandoned or abused animals require 

some degree of medical care ranging 

from minor to extensive. 

SAVE AN ANIMAL · SAVE A LIFE 

While our willingness to help is 

unlimited, our financial resources are 

not. In 2017 we spent $45,000. to 

cover veterinary costs for life-saving 

operations and to cover spay-neuter 

procedures. This year due to extensive 

injuries our costs will easily exceed 

$50,000. Please help us raise the 

money we need to continue providing 

our furry friends with the best medical 

care they so much deserve. 

All donations are tax-deductible as we 

are a registered 510(c)(3) nonprofit 

charitable organization.

DINNER: THURSDAYS - SATURDAYS • 5PM - 9PM 

Back in the early 70’s while going to 

college at the University of Georgia 

in Athens, my roommate being from 

Augusta got his hands on some 4 

day Series Badges for the Masters. 

We all crashed at his house and had 

a blast. 

One of the things I most 

remember is not the “Golden Bear” 

winning in 72’ , but all of the food 

and drinks being so cheap. 

This is the first time I had the “privilege” 

of having a pimento cheese 

sandwich. It is as special as Rae’s 

Creek, the Green Jacket or Amen 

Corner at the Masters. 

What you can devour is a sandwich 

of two names and five ingredients, 

a quick item to grab at the Masters 

concession stands. 

Some call it the “Caviar of the South”. 

It comes sealed in green plastic, a 

color that blends in with the Augusta 

National in case the wrapper goes 

fl ying around. 

They drink mint juleps at the Kentucky 

Derby, and eat Big Dodger 

Dogs in L. A. No one is sure how the 

Pimento Cheese Sandwich became 

the signature taste of the Masters, 

beginning with its debut in 1934.

horses, two cats, and a miniature 

donkey named Doc Holliday. 

None of this is new to Allison, who has 

been an animal lover since she can 

remember. “Once we found Splash 

and Dash, we knew we’d found the 

perfect fit for us and for the community 

we envisioned bringing it to!” said 

Allison, who grew up with family dogs 

and cats and got her first horse when 

she was 13 years old. 

While in college, she studied both 

public relations and equine business. 

After multiple deployments to the 

Middle East, Scott took a job in 2010 

as an instructor where he would not 

be deployed for a few years. 

Scott had so many great experiences 

with military working dogs that he 

thought a Belgian Malinois would be 

a great fit. 

That’s when Jackie, a Belgian Malinois, 

entered his life. Jackie is his 

constant companion and triathlon 

training partner. 

When Allison and Scott found Splash 

and Dash Groomerie and Boutiques, 

they knew that they had found the 

next leg of their journey. 

They chose Splash and Dash because 

of the family values that they 

both share. “Splash and Dash treats 

pets as family and we do too” said Allison.

Christmas 4 Moore in Need of 

Sponsors to Serve an 

Additional 100 Families 

Christmas for Moore, a local nonprofit, 

served more than 300 families in 

2016 with basic needs and gifts for 

area children with a goal of not leaving 

any empty stockings for those 

who registered last year. Everyone 

was served who applied. 

Four events held last month throughout 

the county have demonstrated an 

even greater need for 2017, with an 

additional 100 families, or 350 individuals, 

including children and adults 

are still in need of adoption. 

Working with these local families 

and recognizing the needs exceed 

available sponsorships, Christmas 

for Moore’s dedicated volunteers are 

seeking local businesses, churches 

and individuals to help ensure these 

families too, find joy in the upcoming 

season of giving. 

Christmas for Moore has had very 

generous sponsors in the past, and 

we need their continued support, 

said Eleanora Voelkel, one of the 

group’s volunteers and steering com- 

However, this year, “we need new 

sponsors to come forward and offer a 

helping hand, she added. Each family 

who registered was told that we will 

do our best to sponsor them, and, 

in the past, we have always found 

a sponsor for each family. We pray 

this year will be the same and that no 

family will need to be turned away.” 

Sponsors are matched with an individual 

or family and choose how to 

support the needs. A Food Lion Gift 

card based on the size of the family 

is given to provide a Christmas meal. 

Those interested in sponsoring a 

family or making a donation to the 

group may contact 

Voice mail: 910-947-4438, email 

Christmas4Moore@gmail.com or 

mail donations directly to Christmas 

for Moore, PO Box 938, Carthage, 

NC. 28327 

“Everyone involved in the program 

has been so blessed in the process 

of providing gifts and food for these, 

our local neighbors in time of need. 

Every family truly appreciates and 

needs the support of their community, 

Voelkel said.”

The Labrador Retriever does it 

again! In a press conference today 

at its new pet care space, AKC Canine 

Retreat, the American Kennel 

Club (AKC®), the nation’s largest 

purebred dog registry, is announcing 

that the intelligent, family friendly 

Lab firmly holds on to the number 

one spot on the most popular list for 

a record-breaking 26th consecutive 

year. 

The Lab’s eager to please temperament 

is just one of many reasons 

why this ideal family dog takes top 

honors year after year.. On top of all 

that, they’re also pretty cute.

“PEACE OF MIND“ 

PET AND HOUSE SITTING 

Donna and Keith Myers founded 

their Peace of Mind pet and 

housesitting business with one 

thing in mind: 

Your pets and home will receive the 

same attention, kindness and love 

as their pets and home receive. 

When folks travel and or work one 

of the most important items that 

needs to be covered is the care of 

their pets and home. 

When they retired three years ago 

they had issues with finding a 

responsible, capable and person 

to care for their dogs when they 

traveled. 

This led to considering their own 

business focusing on the things 

that were most important to them 

now that they had the time in 

retirement. 

They will be happy to stay in your 

home with your pets or just visit, 

feed, water and walk your dogs 

however many times a day are 

needed. 

Text and emailed pictures of your 

animals while you are away is one 

way to enhance your travels and is 

a mainstay at Peace of Mind.

SEVEN LAKES EYE CARE 

PROVIDES SERVICES TO 

RESIDENTS IN COSTA RICA 

A team of four from Dr. Kavanaugh’s 

Seven Lakes Eye Care office located 

in Seven Lakes along with 13 others 

from Christ Community Church 

traveled to the slums in Guarari, 

Costa Rica to provide eyecare and 

Rx glasses to residents. 

This was a mission trip which 

involved providing eye care to 

approximately 500 residents living 

in this impoverished area of Costa 

Rica. 

In Costa Rica, there are 305,231 

households in poverty, and 86,663 

households in extreme poverty, 

according to data from the 2017 

National Household Survey 

(ENAHO). 

Three days were spent in Guarari, 

and a fourth day included a visit to 

a small church by the public dump 

facility in a nearby city. 

The young woman pictured with the 

baby, for the first time was able to 

see the features of her baby. Many 

had problems due to poor diet, 

(mostly rice) and the overall poor 

living conditions contributed to the 

needs. 

Dr. Barry Kavanaugh, wife Penny, 

daughter Macie, and Marliss 

Horsley from the Seven Lakes Eye 

Care office traveled to Guarari, 

Costa Rica to provide the residents 

with this humanitarian service. 

Peter Bishop, a resident of Seven 

Lakes West accompanied the 

group. 

Many other volunteers as members 

of the team are part of the Christ 

Community Church, located in West 

End and assisted in this“Global 

Outreach Program.” 

With thanks to U.S. Representative 

Richard Hudson, North Carolina 

8th Congressional District, three 

American flags flown over the U.S. 

Capitol on September 11, 2019 will 

now fly over Seven Lakes. 

Steve Hudson, a relative and Seven 

Lakes resident, presented the 

first flag to the Seven Lakes Fire 

Department. 

The remaining two flags were given 

to the SLLA Board of Directors and 

will be flown at the North and South 

gates. 

The 9/11 flag program was started 

in remembrance of those who lost 

their lives at the World Trade Center, 

Pentagon, and the Shanksville, 

Pennsylvania site. 

The flags were also flown in honor of 

all of those first responder heroes 

who risked their lives to shepherd 

survivors to safety on that tragic 

day. 

The flags represent the 2,977 

victims of the September 11, 2001 

attacks on the World Trade Center, 

Pentagon, United Airlines Flight 93 

and First Responders. It is a great 

honor to have these special flags fly

Garden Club 

Seven Lakes Garden Club made a 

mini Field Trip to McLendon Hills 

to the home of Chuck and Dorrie 

Kayser and their horses. Those 

two horses produce fifty pounds of 

waste product every day. Chuck 

has developed a wonderful system 

for composting the organic waste 

so that it can be spread on their 

pastures with no negative impact 

to the surrounding ecosystem. 

Chuck uses the O2Compost system 

developed in 2001. 

Chuck (with shovel) talks to SLGC. 

Simple to operate and convert a 

waste problem into a resource 

opportunity. The Aerated Static 

Pile compost method optimizes the 

process and mitigates problems 

such as odor, flies and adverse 

impacts to water quality. He can 

then use the ultra-rich compost 

on his garden or sell it in 40 lb 

bags. Garden Club members eagerly 

purchased many bags from 

his stock! Chuck and Dorrie feed 

and bed their horses with 100% 

organic materials. Healthy horses 

and great compost.

Many Thanks to all of the Volunteers that have

Seven Lakes Fire Departent, Bill Hicks, Sam 

Ransdell, Steven Loomis, the Birdsell Family

It was a glorious day to celebrate Veterans 

Day in West End, It was standing room only as 

hundreds of people attended the event held by 

the Vietnam Veterans Association Chapter 966. 

Their motto is “Helping Veterans, Communities 

and Those Serving in Harm‘s Way.“ 

The Chapel in the Pines with the 

Seven Lakes Fire Department, First 

Bank, the NS Homeowners Assoc, 

Seven Lakes News, area friends, 

and neighbors has taken on the 

mission of assisting a long-time 

resident, suffering from ALS, or 

as it is better known, Lou Gehrig 

Disease. 

Matt Northcutt-- Benefit November 16th 

Matt Northcutt, 44, long time resident 

of Seven Lakes, became a 

First Responder, and with his wife 

Tammy are raising their three young 

children in Seven Lakes. 

He became one of the first 

Policemen on the Seven Lakes 

Force, then joined the Fire 

Company, drove the ambulance, 

and finally, became an EMT. While 

a volunteer EMT he was employed 

by the NC State Employment 

Security Commission working with 

farmers in up to five surrounding 

counties. He had to resign from 

the Fire· Company when his ALS 

progressed. The State eventually 

gave him a handicapped equipped 

van in order to continue working 

with those farmers. Recently he 

had to resign from that job. Then 

Tammy, who worked for First 

Health Family Medicine in Seven 

Lakes, had to resign to assist Matt 

at home. This leaves them without 

an income, but with medical bills 

and living expenses. 

Our Mission is to hold a Benefit 

for Matt on November 16th from 

12:30 pm to 4:30 pm, at the 

Chapel in the Pines and we are 

looking for donations from our local 

businesses to add to our Silent 

Auction on that day. 

We already have some baskets 

donated by Seven Lakes 

businesses and residents and 

are looking for whatever you have 

in your heart to donate to help us 

assist Matt and Tammy meet their 

medical expenses. 

It is our hope we can raise at 

least $10,000 to assist them, but 

can only do it with the help of the 

Community. We need to show this 

young family our appreciation for 

all they have given us during their 

young lives. 

Can you, will you help us? 

Blessings on you all...
