The Harnett County Board of Commissioners named
Joseph Jeffries Harnett County Manager. The board
voted unanimously to make Jeffries county manager
during the May 4 commissioners meeting. Jeffries
assumed the role of interim county manager in
December 2014, following the departure of then-County
Manager Tommy Burns. In naming Jeffries county
manager, commissioners made an exception to the job
description, which states that the county manager must
live in Harnett County. Jeffries lives just across the
county line in Wake County, but he grew up in Angier
and graduated from Harnett Central High School.
The Harnett County Board of Commissioners named
Paula Kelly Stewart deputy county manager. The board
approved a recommendation from County Manager
Joseph Jeffries to make Stewart deputy manager during
the May commissioners meeting. Stewart was brought
in as interim deputy county manager in February
following Jeffries’ appointment to interim county
manager.

On April 30 the Third Annual "Successful Business Leaders" Forum presented by Oscar N. Harris & Associates, PA, was
held at the Brass Lantern Steak House. More than 40 young (and young at heart) professionals gathered to hear three featured
local entrepreneurs speak about their successes during the complimentary dinner.
Chamber Vice President and Young Professionals Chair, Russell A. Galvan moderated the event. The featured speakers
included Dallas "Bo" Dafford, Sr. of Dafford Funeral Home; Patsy Powell, of Re/Max Signature Realty; and Freddie Williford of
Sherry's Bakery (who graciously filled in for Mayor Oscar Harris).
The overall sentiments of the evening were to be committed to what you do, to value yours and others time, to strive to
do your best at everything you do, employees make your business and “always respect everyone, never take advantage of
anyone - you do not know their circumstances”, according to Bo Dafford. Patsy Powell stated she got her best piece of advice
from Paul Perry, of Perry Brothers Tire and Service. He told her about relationship selling, which Mrs. Powell explained as “Greet
every customer by name, learn something about them and make them feel like the most important customer you have.”
Throughout the event there were serious moments and lots of laughter - with many a personal story being told. As all
three speakers noted, when you own a "family business" there is no separation of your family and work life. Make sure you are
committed to both completely and it will work out. Mr. Freddie Williford said it best when he remarked, “They (work and family) are
the same. And I enjoy my work more than anyone!”
Chamber Executive Vice President Tammy Williams remarked, “I love the way our featured guests shared their life and
hearts with the young adults. I believe everyone in attendance took
a nugget home.”
At the conclusion of the evening, the audience asked
questions that the three speakers fielded with ease and expertise,
answering such questions as what kinds of risks had they taken in
life; how do they draw the line between family and work; how do we
get more young people to become entrepreneurs; and what do
young people today need to do to be successful?
The Young Professionals thank Mr. Dafford, Mrs. Powell
and Mr. Williford for sharing their insights and for being such willing
participants in this open discussion with the future of Dunn and the
surrounding area.

Cape Fear Christian Academy went unbeaten in the North Carolina
Independent School Athletic Association double-elimination 1-A softball
tournament to win the championship Saturday at Campbell’s Amanda Littlejohn
Stadium.
“A lot of hard work,” said CFCA coach Bill Green. “They were receptive
to the foal at hand and stayed focused through the ups and downs.”
The ups greatly outnumbered the downs as the Eagles finished the
season 22-2 with no losses in its enrollment classification. In the championship
game against Lawrence, CFCA won 11-1 in five innings. Previously, they won
against the defending 2014 champion in the first game of the Final Four with a
score of 12-0, in five innings.
Congrats Lady Eagles!

The kindergarten and first grade students at Harnett Primary
School performed a colorful spring concert entitled Teach the World to Sing.
This cornucopia of songs took the audience on a trip around the world where
they learned about customs, songs, and interests of various countries.
Students sang, danced, played drums and maracas, and wore colorful
clothing. There were even four creative second grade students that helped
with the narration. Sydney Bradham, a first grade student, gave a beautiful
solo performance.
