Roaches, an unpaid pest control company, and wander- ing residents who regularly passed through doors without alarms or ignored alarms were also allegations in the state report. Sharon Crawford, manager of the facility, failed to respond to a number of requests for comment on the report but told The News Reporter early in the investigation that inci- dents had been “blown out of proportion” and statements made by former employees untrue. A former resident of the facility told The News Reporter conditions that she believes the report is accurate and does not include all deficiencies or events that occurred at the facility. “None of that stuff was a lie,” the former resident said. “I’m praying to God that they close that place down,” the former resident said. “The door alarms would go off and they ignored them,” the former resident said. Hours would pass with em- ployees who were supposed to be at the facility away, the former resident said. The former resident be- lieves that facility officials on most occasions of “surprise” visits by regulatory officials “knew ahead of time” they were coming. “They had a little whistler somewhere,” the former resi- dent claims. “The local Department of Social Services is the front line of monitors for adult care homes in North Carolina, and the DSS staff work closely with state Adult Care Section staff when problems arise,” state officials said. “State inspections are conducted annually.

Despite the Iraq withdrawal – which North Carolina Na- tional Guard Soldiers and Airmen helped make possible by bringing some of the last people and equipment out in December 2011 – the Guard continues to mobilize and deploy soldiers and airmen at home and around the world at a brisk pace in support of our na- tion’s national security goals. “We like to say the Guard is the most cost-effective military force for the state and the na- tion doing these tough jobs for much less than the cost of a similarly-sized full-time force,” said Maj.

Southern States is asking its top 1,000 horse feed customers to donate proof of purchase seals from bagged and bulk feeds to any of more than 400 non- profit horse associations and clubs that participate in the Southern States S.H.O.W. (Special Horse Organization Winner’s) Program. Local organizations par- ticipating in the S.H.O.W. Program receive cash re- wards for proof of purchase seals from bags of Southern States®, Legends® and Tri- ple Crown® horse feeds, and those funds are used to sup- port equestrian activities and events that specifically benefit the horse industry. Rewards of 25 cents for each proof of purchase seal and $10 for each ton of bulk feed are paid by the cooperative directly to the organization. “Our top 1,000 customers represent more than 630,000 bags of feed and nearly 2,400 tons of bulk feed annu- ally,” said Jim Moore, vice president of the Southern States Feed Division. “That translates into more than $180,000, which could go a long way toward support- ing these non-profit horse organizations.” “No other feed company has supported the horse in- dustry more than Southern States,” explained Jessica Lohman, livestock market- ing manager for the co- operative. “We developed the S.H.O.W. Program to provide all non-profit horse associations and clubs with their very own sponsorship tools.” Response to the program from non-profit organiza- tions has been positive. “We count on the pro- ceeds from the S.H.O.W. Program to assist us in our yearly activities and pro- grams,” said Scott Mallory, president of the Kentucky Thoroughbred Farm Man- agers Club. “The generosity of the farms who participate in this with their proof of purchase seals and the fi- nancial support of Southern States is vital to our organi- zation.” For more information about donating to S.H.O.W.

Story and Photos By NICOLE CARTRETTE Staff Writer

Camp Read-A-Lot was a big hit recently at Williams Township School. The family literacy night attracted many students, parents and family members who enjoyed campfire songs, became actors at the Theater in the Woods, fished for words, made S’mores trail mix us- ing a written recipe and journeyed on a bear hunt through a cave, among other activities. The event was to give parents tips on how to make reading fun, inspire families to enjoy literacy activities at home and learn more about ways the school is keeping students engaged. The program was well attended and included more than 100 of the school’s students in grades kindergarten through second. Teachers guided the students and parents through numerous classrooms that had been transformed into unique camp-themed reading stations. Teachers dressed in character costumes complementing the books or activities they shared and students dressed as their favorite sto- rybook characters. A fluffy bear that roamed the halls and posed for pictures with excited campers was a highlight of the event. The school has hosted a literacy night in the past but teachers this year wanted to make the event even more kid friendly. Judging by the campers’ faces, they did just that.

(Top right)The Fishing Hole was one of many popular stations at the Williams Township School Literacy night, Camp Read A Lot. A ruler with fshing line at- tached to a magnet helped little anglers reel in word fsh with paperclips attached to them.

(Above) A S’mores trail mix sta- tion demonstrated how simple instructions make reading and snacking more fun.

(right)Teachers Leigh Ann McPherson and Phyllis Lanier, accompanied by musician and husband Timmy Lanier and son, led students in campfre songs.

(Left to right) Suzanne Hall, retired, volun- teered to read Good Night Moon at one of the stations. A colorful garden was among the décor at Camp Read-a-Lot that included tents, stars, faux fres, among others. Josh Spivey, as the bear, got lots of hugs from excited campers.
