SERVING THE LIBERTY, STALEY , JULIAN, CLIMAX AND SN OW CAMP AREA  1 The Liberty Leader Free Community Paper By The Community And For The Community Free Monthly Newspaper February 2011 Volume 7 * Issue 2 Earth Visions Boot Camp January 2011 There comes a time in every life when a need just arises to go up against IT . Yo u gather determina- tion; you are anxious, edgy, and awake before dawn, working with IT already in mind. The Boot Camp Recruits of Earth Visions did just this. They looked IT in the face and they won. They sought IT and fought IT- and learned that IT was themselves all along. They accepted the mission of this one month adventure.In November of 2010, Earth Visions prepared the Boot Camp Pro- tocol and began to offer the program to recruits. Every time there came the same response, “What will we do?” The fear of the physical work of it shone through. And there came t he same an- swer, “W e have much to do and have only a scant 20 hours, one hour each weekday, to do it.” The answer, perceived to be vague, got many responses. Mostly , the mystery of it captured the curiosity and will of many recruits. Let it be known that Sam and Novella Kennedy of Earth Visions did not really know all of the intricate details, as such a course as this completely de- pends on the participants. Sam and Novella  both knew that it truly was not focused only on the physical tness of th e Boot Camp Recruit. It was SO much more than that.Finally the day came with the bleary-eyed and jittery recruits arriving at 5:45 am, not daring to be late. With only 20 hours at thei r disposal, Earth Visions cre- ated a tight program. A plan designed to guide, challenge and prod that Boot Camp T eam in every way imaginable; with discipline, focus, awareness and technique. The rst two hours were used to put the Team through grueling tests to check out their physical statistics and tness level. This would be the ba se line and would tell the tale in the last two hours, if that recruit had improved and in what percentage. It would test the Boot Camp program. Could we in only 20 hours really make a difference in strength, en- durance, balance, running times and everything else?Hour followed hour, week followed week and the bleary-eyed, sore and tiring Team con- tinued to dig in. Every infraction, which in- cluded being late or absent or just plain not pay- ing attention would result in pushups for their Team, sometimes over a hundred pushups in the hour. Without enough hours in the Camp, the Boot Camp Team worked overtime into their lives. They worked out at home, took notes in  journals, learned much about themselves in the  bargain. In the end, it wo uld be difcult to choose which part of their work produced such phenomenal results.EVERY hard-working, unre- lenting, determined, blood-sweat & tear stained, recruit improved in every test and body statistic that was taken. Many inches were lost from their  body measurements, many pounds disappeared from the scale, and in some cases repetitions of sets of the tests DOUBLED . They were stronger , much stronger and quite satised with the re- sults of their labors. So were Sam and Novella. Yes, the Program proved to all that it could p ro- duce the improvements sought after. The experience has welded this Boot Camp Team together such as a war-time assignment may have done. They sweated, wo rked, cried and shared the common goal of nding what IT con- sists of in each o f their lives. Just to put it in per- spective, the Recruits varied in age from 21 to 68, most being closer to 68 than 21. Congratulations to you all, welcome to being in possibly the best shape of your life. Yo u earned it! Great Community Event Planned If you’re riding around Liberty no doubt you’re going to see Lady Liberty’s dancing and holding signs point- ing the way to Liberty T ax Service. Last year we wrote an article on the Marketing Manager Vicki Lemmon, who is now happily married and now goes by Vicki Humble. Vicki moved to North Carolina October of 2008 after being in Hurricane Ike outside of Galveston Tex as. We here at Liberty Leader have bee n inspired by Vicki’s outgoing personality and how she has embraced our wonderful town. If you don’t know, V icki is pu tting together a community party to help promote area busi- nesses. In this article we will interview V icki and ask her a few questions; So what has inspired you to put together this community event?“As I am going business to business marketing for Liberty Tax Service I see some  businesses that have closed down and it breaks my heart. Liberty is the town I chose to make my home for the rest of my life and I want to see her grow and prosper. ”How do you think this community event will help the area businesses?“Each business will come and set up a booth to show what they have to offer, some are giving away food, while others will be showing off their wonderful wares. We are advertising about the event through radio and newspapers and are expecting to have a wonderful turnout”What businesses are com- ing to this community event?“At this time we have 26 area businesses so of course I can’t name them all, you will have to come and see for yourself.”Are you plan- ning this event alone or do you have others helping you?“We have partnered with 421 Havana; Nilda Se-  bastian has been a great inspiration to our town by  bringing in many community events since they opened their doors. We are honored to have this event at such a wonderful facility.”I heard you were having more than  just area businesses involved, what else is going to be going on at this event?“This event will also benet Locks of Love; one of our wonderful salons here in Lib- erty will be helping us with this portion of the event. Randolph health department is coming to help educate us on health issues, and there will be other wonderful things going on, you just have to be sure to come out to the event to see for yourself.”If you wish to nd out more about this event see “Family Fun Community Party” on page two.

Combatting PovertyCall The CommunityThursday, March 10 At 7 p.m. (All Invited)Over the years, combatting poverty has beena passion of mine. I believe it is one of thecalls Jesus gave to me even before my callinto the ministry. Before entering the minis-try, I was a teacher for 10 years. In those 10years, 1 year was in Arizona on the MexicanBorder in a very poverty stricken area. Afterthat, my wife and I both taught in Dayton,Ohio, and each of us had 2 of the poorestschools. It was there that my attitude andresponse to those in poverty were shapedand changed. After 6 years, due to budgetcuts, we both lost our jobs and came to NC.We taught here for 3 years (in neighboringcounties). Both of us had schools that wereconsidered Low Income schools. Over theyears, I've studied causes of poverty, effectsof poverty, and ways of bringing people outof poverty. No single way will eliminatepoverty, but if we sit back and do nothing,we're not fullling Jesus' call to minister to"the least of these." Charity through dona-tions is only 1 way to help, but it's not theonly way. What we need is a radical changein our own thought patterns and a call toaction. I'd like to invite churches, community

leaders, community members, and anyoneelse who is interested to a presentation called"Poverty and a Christian Respone" at Hick-ory Grove (10068 Silk Hope Liberty Rd.-Take E. Dameron St. out of Liberty, and inabout 3 miles, Hickory Grove will be on yourleft). The presentation will be Thursday,March 10 at 7 PM. While this one presenta-tion won't stop poverty, I hope it can "get the ball rolling" in dealing with this importantissue. I hope this is just the beginning of animportant discussion of a problem that isaffecting our area and almost every area inour country. So, Please Leave MARCH 10 at7PM open and plan to attend if you can!

Many Blessings,Tom HallbergPastor, Hickory Grove UMC

Dancing with the Randolph Stars Couples Chosen18 Couples Chosen for 2011 Dancing with R andolph StarsThe local "celebrities" who are volunteering their skills for the Randolph CommunityCollege Foundation's 2011 Dancing with the Randolph Stars benet lled The ExchangeBanquet and Meeting Hall recently for a Meet the Stars 2011 reception. The dancers--some veterans of the 2010 inaugural event and some new--mingled and chatted witheach other, and with Planning Committee members and dance instructors. They posedfor portraits for the event program and waited nervously for the high point of theevening--the announcement of the pairing of dance partners. Seven male and four fe-male dancers will return from last year. Eleven males and 14 females will be rst-timeDancing participants in 2011. Jacquie Reininger, a local entrepreneur who owns San-

tosha Yoga in Asheboro, said she was "excited and nervous" about dancing for the rsttime. She didn't know who her partner would be, and her anticipation was prolongedas she and her Dancing partner, Darin DeNamur of Asheboro, were the last of the 18couples to be announced. The announcements were made by Don Allred, who was anemcee at last year's event, preceded by a drum roll provided by drummer ThomasWeaver. Before the announcements, RCC President Bob Shackleford welcomed thegroup, and Ann Hoover and Vickie Gallimore, co-chairs of the Planning Committee,introduced the committee members working on the project.

Town Of Liberty Has NewPublic Work DirectorSo who is this new person? That would be none other thanChris Taylor. He is the new public works director for thetown of Liberty. Lets get to know this great young man alittle more. Chris was born in Chapel Hill on December 27.Chris attended High School just down the road at JordanMatthews High Schools and graduated in 2000.

He previously worked from 2002 to 2010. So does thisyoung man have any great hobbies? Chris said, “I love vis-iting my father and family in Waynesville, NC and watch-ing my race and work on his cars.” Speaking of brothers,Chris has 3 half brothers and 4 half sisters. I asked himwhat lead him to desire this position. “Well, I have this me-chanical ability and just have always wanted to work for amunicipality, “ Chris replied. As with most of my inter-views, I have all these questions I love to ask. Well here theygo. Who was your favorite role model. Chris thought andsaid, “It would have to be my mother Addie Taylor. HerStrength and work ethic. She was a single mother that al-ways found a way to provide for us growing up.Working to jobs a lot of the times. She is my hero.” So what makes hisday? Chris said with a smile, “ Just being here. SO much istaken for granted every day. I have learned to stop and en- joy the smallest things in life.” Do you have a great piece of advice to give to other I asked. “Always be kind and cour-teous to everyone, you never know what they may be goingthrough, “ he told with a condence. That is some great ad-vice. In conclusion, I asked him if he had a favorite mem-ory. Chris said, “There is not just one, helping all the peoplethat I was lucky enough to help, that would be my reply.”

HABITAT UPDATEThe “Wednesday Work Crew” was given a day of “work release” by our Lord on the second Wednesday (Jan. 12)when snow and ice blanketed the area, making work too

cold and dangerous. The next scheduled workday of Wednesday, January 26, was more temperate, even if rain-ing. Two workers from Liberty, one from Seagrove, and twoHabitat supervisors worked inside sheetrocking window jambs and reworking a small defect in the front covereddeck area. Lunch was provided by an anonymous couple atHurricane Jane’s in Liberty. Habitat needs individuals andgroups to provide any type lunch you can offer on the 2ndor 4th Wednesday of any month. Unfortunately, onlyenough food for around eight persons is necessary, so thecost to provide a meal should be nominal and can consist of whatever you care to prepare…. .Call Executive DirectorWanda Pegg at 625-1429 or Rodney Overcash (ConstructionCoordinator) at 336-953-2929. The wall insulation is set to be installed by an outside contractor in the rst few days of February, and then the local work crew will begin hangingsheetrock…..a crew of women sheetrock hangers and n-ishers (believe me, you don’t want to “mess” them them)will then begin the doping and nishing process…..morelater….For Habitat, Tom, Meacham

So much of our identity and personal history iswrapped up in the person to whom we commit to share ourlives. When that person dies, we not only lose them, we lose apart of ourselves. The task of mourning well is doing the work necessary to rediscover who we are in light of such a signicantloss.”The evening will consist of an educational component aswell as time for personal reection and feedback from the groupand facilitator. This special pro gram will be held on Tuesday,February 15 from 6:30pm – 8:00pm. For more information or toRSVP, contact Dr. Otwell at (336) 672-9300.

At The WellAt the center of the Village is adeep well of life-giving waterwhere the townspeople meet.As they draw water their voices blend in the culture, society andwisdom that they share. Eachmonth meet here at the well tohear those voices.There is always something going on in our neighbor-hood. At noon we meet at a home, since spring is a fewweeks out and the wind is blowing around the well.We are here to listen to a 22 year-old woman, Nina,who lives here. She is studying to be a Nurse Practitio-ner and is working on delivery of her presentation.This presentation will be presented to her faculty nextweek. Some mothers have brought along their 3 and 5year olds. They have crayons and paper, but I amwondering if even that will keep them quiet for this‘grown up’ event. And now she begins.“More than 70 years ago there was a doctor who wasdoing research using mice. They lived in cages in thelab. His work with each group never showed the ex-pected different results. Dr. Selye was clumsy and al-ways dropped the mice when he took them from thecages.” One of the children began to dget. “ Likethis”, Nina squealed as she dropped onto all fours chas-ing the imaginary mice. She exchanged the mice byopening the imaginary cage door and more mice es-caped. She chased for a moment, with the help of now-interested children. When the chase was done, it was

learned that Dr. Selye’s discovered that his results werealways ruined by the fact that the mice were “stressed”.It affected the mice with all sorts of disease and shorterlife spans. That is when stress became a householdword and we began to look at the effects of stresswithin our own lives and bodies.Nina continued, while the children watched, just incase more imaginary mice escaped. “Dr. Selye foundthat there were three stages to the body’s reaction tostress. Fight or ight (stress), adaptation (stress man-aged), and exhaustion (worn out). Nina leans downand takes the hand of the 3-year-old with his crayon

and draws with the child’s hand while she talks, “Theadrenal glands perch right on top of the two kidneysand they affect our bodies because our non-stop stressaffects their function”, she nishes with a smiley faceon one adrenal gland drawing. Standing again shemakes another point, “The ‘mice’ doctor found that therst thing that happens during stress is that the adrenal

gland gets bigger…why? So that it can make moreadrenaline hormone to help with stress (ght oright).” Then she chases those mice again catching thekids off-guard, “With the pressure and unrelentingstress on the glands, they shrink and produce much lessadrenaline. The doctor found that when the micestayed in the cages, the slight stress of a human handthat fed them just kept them alert, not stressed. So themice ‘adapted’ which then managed the slight stresses,which was actually good for their bodies. Hans Selyesaid, ‘It is not stress that kills us, it is our reaction to it.”So healthy ways to laugh at our problems or to havefriends or therapists to talk with will preserve ourpeace of mind (and keep us in our cages, I thought tomyself with a giggle in my head).“The adrenal glands send out messages to cells by pro-ducing several hormones. Some of these are glucocor-ticoids and their rst job is to release sugar for energy.Guess what is happening when too much sugar is re-leased for energy?” Nina continues nodding toward thenow-sleeping children, “Yes, it is supposed to be usedas fuel to burn if running from a bear, but if our bearsare all in our heads we just burn up our systems”.“What about when I exercise?” one of the moms asked.Nina answered, “Physical stress of exercise is thehealthy body, building and nourishing itself with adap-tive stress. This puts the body into the proper mode, sothe body builds up rather than being torn down. Youknow how you chase your child all day and feel sotired, feeling as if it is enough exercise for you?…Wrong. It is the mindset that inuences so much in our bodies. Exercise, done right, is stress RELIEF. It CRE-ATES energy, rather than taking it away. The body feelsenergized, rather than tired. The adrenal glands are balanced and happy, not enlarged in one instance andnot shrunk away in another.“The second job of the glucocorticoids is to reduce in-ammation. A body in stress mode depresses the im-mune system to prepare for a ght. A body in stressdoes not attempt to repair damaged tissues. Stressdamages bodies in SO many ways.” Nina could havespoken longer and we were very interested; but thismet the time limit of her presentation. We all had somewondering to do. Were our glands enlarged, shrunken,or balanced? Blood tests could tell, Ninaadvised. The best thing to do is relax, andlove yourselves, then you have love to giveto others to help them pass the love along.Thank you, Nina, I feel more educated aboutmy body. Our clapping roused the sleepingchildren, which undoubtedly tweakedTHEIR adrenal glands in momentary freight!Not a bad way to spend a blustery afternoon.

WHAT CAN A COOKIE DO?Every cookie has a mission, beginning February 12!

(Hickory, NC – February 1, 2011) – Local Girl Scouts, who belongto Girl Scouts Carolinas Peaks to Piedmont GSCP2P), will ask cus-tomers to help girls do great things by purchasing a box of thetasty treats that not only taste good, but that do good beginningFebruary 12. “People say, ‘it’s just a cookie. What can a cookie do?’ ” says Jean-nie Brown, director of product sales for GSCP2P. “For local girls, a Girl Scoutcookie can do a lot.” While cookies are only available for approximately twomonths, local Girl Scouts reap the benets all year long. Girls decide where themoney goes. A Girl Scout cookie could help girls pay for camp, purchase uni-forms and badges, y a troop to a destination of their choice or buy school sup-plies for needy kids. It could also cheer up a soldier far from home. Every cookie has a mission: to do great things. Thecore of the Girl Scout Cookie Program focuses on teaching girls ve essential skills including goal setting, businessethics, money management, decision-making and people skills – all of which help girls in their future, whatever theychoose to do.This year, Girl Scouts can also track their goals online and become part of a safe online Cookie Connectorasking their friends and families to purchase cookies. And, because girls are now even more internet savvy, they cansecure orders through social networks; however, Girl Scouts cannot collect money online for their purchases. The priceper box is $4, and all of the proceeds generated from the Girl Scout Cookie Program stay within the girls’ local area tohelp fund girl-led programming. “It’s important to let people know that the Girl Scout Cookie Program is more than a

fundraiser – it’s a leadership program for girls,” said Marcia Cole, chief executive ofcer for Girl Scouts CarolinasPeaks to Piedmont. “Every cookie has a mission: to help girls do great things, and our girls certainly take that toheart.”ew this year to the lineup of available treats is Shout-Outs!, a Belgian-style wafer cookie that carries messagessuch as “Change,” “Learn” and “Lead.” In addition, Girl Scouts will be selling favorite treats like the Thin Mint andShortbreads along with other great timeless classics like Caramel deLites, Peanut Butter Patties and Peanut ButterSandwiches. Plus, the product line includes “new” classic varieties such as Thanks-A-Lots and Lemonades.The GirlScouts are even going eco-friendly this year, premiering environmentally friendly packaging for the Thanks-A-Lotscookies. This effort aims to remove 150 tons of paperboard from the waste stream.To purchase a box of cookies, contacta Girl Scout in your neighborhood or community. Or, search the council web site at www.girlscoutsp2p.org to nd theclosest cookie booth in your area from February 12 to March 14.This year, the Girl Scouts are promoting the following:

BUY 5 promotion – for every ve boxes that a customer purchases, his/her name will be entered in a drawing to win ayear's supply (52 boxes) of free Girl Scout cookiesfrom the council!

pThe 10 Commandments - God's Revelation in the Old Tes-tament The 10 Commandments are found in the Bible's OldTestament at Exodus, Chapter 20. They were given directly by God to the people of Israel at Mount Sinai after He haddelivered them from slavery in Egypt: "And God spoke allthese words, saying: 'I am the LORD your God…ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.'TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--anylikeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the

earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD yourGod in vain.'FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.'FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.'SIX: 'You shall not murder.'SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery.'EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.'NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neigh- bor.'TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shallnot covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his

female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anythingthat is your neighbor's.'

The 10 Commandments -Christ's Summation in theNew Testament About1,400 years later, the 10Commandments weresummed up in the NewTestament at Matthew 22,when Jesus was confronted by the religious "experts"

of the day: "Teacher, whichis the greatest command-ment in the Law?" Jesusreplied: " 'Love the Lordyour God with all yourheart and with all yoursoul and with all your

mind.' This is the rst and greatest commandment. And thesecond is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All theLaw and the Prophets hang on these two commandments"(Matthew 22:36-40). A reective reading of Christ's teachingreveals that the rst four commandments given to the chil-

dren of Israel are contained in the statement: "Love the Lordyour God with all your heart and with all your soul andwith all your mind." It continues that the last six com-mandments are enclosed in the statement: "Love yourneighbor as yourself."

Friends are like balloons;once you let them go, you might not get them back.Sometimes we get so busy with our own lives and

problems that we may not even notice that we've letthem y away. Sometimes we are so caught up inwho's right and who'swrong that we forgetwhat's right andwrong.. Sometimes we just don't realize whatreal friendship meansuntil it is too late. Idon't want to let thathappen so I'm going totie you to my heart so I

never lose you.

At the January 7, 2011 meeting the Treasury ofcer reportedon all of 2010. During the rst calender year of operation$13,101.11 in donations and $542 in riding fees were col-lected for a total of $13,543.11 in nances. The expenses for2010 were $6,729.32 leaving a balance of $6,913.79 as of January 1, 2011. The biggest expenses were the purchase of the CARS van and automobile insurance for it. Gas wasn't a big expense thanks to 500 gallons of it being donated byEuliss Oil. Also, just recently the 100 Man Project received a$4,000 grant from the Emily Millis Hiett Fund in High Point,raising available funds to $10,913.79. At the maintenance

portion of the meeting J.R. Beard reported he'd talked to Mr.Stanley of Euliss Oil and since they were nice enough todonate gas the 100 Man Project decided to continue gettingfuel there after the donated fuel runs out. The MaintenanceOfcers reported that the CARS Van is in working order, butreport they noticed a lot of dirt in the van when they refu-eled. It was recommended everyone check behind themwhen using the CARS van for dirt, mud, or leaves. The dis-patcher, Terry Stutts, reported that December was a slowmonth for the CARS Program with only 14 clients trans-ported eight of those by the CARS Van and six by personallyowned vehicles. Four calls were received asking for informa-tion on CARS, two people were rejected due to lack of com-patibility with equipment and, ve were canceled with three

due to lack of a driver. It was recommended that if you helphold a wheelchair on the lift of the van don't stand on it because the lift is designed for one person at a time. The 100Man Project is also looking for a backup for Terry in case of future problems. The directors reported two new CARSdrivers, Gary Dotson who will drive on the second Friday of the schedule and W. T. Garner will again drive on the sec-ond Wednesday. It was decided when a wheelchair boundperson is transported by CARS a second person needs toride to help. More volunteer backup drivers are needed toll in when extra help is required. As of January 3 two read-ing initiatives were started for Liberty Elementary studentsthat will last to May 2. One is a contest amongst each gradelevel where the class that reads the most books gets a pizzaparty at the end of the school year. The other initiatives is adrawing in which each book a Liberty student checks out atthe Liberty Library or each visit they make to the LibertyNature Research Library they are entered in a contest to wina $100, $50, or $25 Wal-mart gift card. The directors alsomentioned a Randolph county business man named Mark Brower who offered a good price of $2,195 on a 9 ft. tall22X21 ft. A-frame carport completely installed. HaroldBrower and Cladora Fogleman offered to help pay $500 apiece to help purchase the carport. Roger Davis is checkingwhere it would be legal to put the carport near the currentlocation of the CARS van. After further discussion a motionwas made and passed to purchase the carport from Mark Brower. After that Gary brought up the fact that the 100Man Project needs to get a letter from William Smith, whoowns the property where the Carport will be placed, thatinsures the 100 Man Project retains ownership of the car-port. During the course of the 100 Man Project severaldrivers have mentioned that they'd prefer to drive a car asopposed to the CARS van. Mainly because a car is easierto drive, saves on fuel costs, and the van is only neededfor the handicapped. So the directors are thinking of hav-ing a special board of directors meeting about getting asecond smaller CARS vehicle to help relieve the van. TheDirectors decided to have two drivers meetings at theLiberty Fire Department scheduled for 7:00pm on both January 25 and 26 that will last around 45 minutes to getdriver input on the CARS program. The CARS van will beat the meetings in case drivers have questions or sugges-tions about it. Several people have helped this year with100 Man Project funding and it has been calculated thateach scal year, July 1 through June 30,$9,000 to $11,000, not including col-lected riding fees, will be needed tokeep things running. The 100 Man Pro- ject is thinking of having a yearly fundraising event to help with nances. Itcould be a cookout, steak supper orsome meal, possibly at the Liberty FireDepartment. It will be discussed moreat the drivers meetings and the nextdirectors meeting. At some point this

bus a d ave a ee de ta ca e eve t o t ose ess o tu atein our area. One dentist and his team have offered to help if the 100 Man Project pursues this. It was decided to discussthis more at later meetings.
