Soil borings on deck at sports complex site TOM JOYCE STAFF REPORTER Before any batters aim for the sky, some attention will have to be given to what’s underground at the possible site of a major sports complex in Mount Airy. That’s the latest word from Todd Harris, a city commis- sioner who is spearheading an effort to develop a 10-ball- field facility on land containing an abandoned landfill. Harris’ plan — which he says should be viewed as an economic-development effort more than a recreation proj- ect — is aimed at making Mount Airy a destination for showcase softball and other sports tournaments. That would complement existing tourism efforts geared toward the Mayberry phenomenon and other local attrac- tions, Harris believes. But before the recently formed Sports Development Committee gets the idea off the ground, efforts must be undertaken to ensure that the complex envisioned for 80 acres of municipal-owned property on City View Drive is on firm footing — literally. Harris, the main spokesman for the 14-member com- mittee, said soil borings initially are planned to determine the degree of rock at the site. Also, these tests will ensure there is enough fill dirt on higher portions of the terrain to be moved to build up lower sections and make the whole area usable. “The good news is, we believe that there is,” said Har- ris, who explained that about 3 feet of dirt will have to be MEGHANN EVANS/THE NEWS added to the lower portions. “Because if we’re having to High school teachers with Surry County Schools line up, right, to receive laptops. truck it in, it would not make the project viable.” In addition to once being the location of the city land- fill, the property is in a 100-year floodplain.

Scott Campbell certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PERFECTION, WRETCHED, NORMAL, AND NOWHERE: A REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION SETTINGS Committee: Chairperson* Date approved: ii ABSTRACT Drawing inspiration from numerous place image studies in geography and other social sciences, this dissertation examines the senses of place and regional identity shaped by more than seven hundred American television series that aired from 1947 to 2007. Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.
