*Causing Quite a Stir Among Some Residents
Déjà vu, French, literally “already seen”, is the phenomenon of having the strong
sensation that an event or experience currently being experienced, has already
been experienced in the past.
It takes only a brief drive out to the Five Bridge Road area to see that something
is going on that has certainly stirred up this quiet, Sampson County community.
With signs in opposition of what is referred to as “Gravel Pit” in almost every
yard, you can see that the community is set for a fight, a fight that most citizens
referred to as “protecting the community for future generaMINING, see P. 4
Tart Not to Seek
Re-Election
* Brother and sister team up to put smiles
on other children for Christmas
With the holiday season just weeks away from being
in full swing some major fundraisers are already underway to help those Sampson County families who
may be in need of an extra helping hand.
While those bigger fundraisers will get more attention as the holiday gets closer, a smaller selfless act
of kindness has already been delivered by two local
children.
What began as a simple drive out to dinner for the
Robinson family – Chris, Traci, and McKenzie (6)
and Kaden Holden (9) – became a stunning call to
help other children in need this Christmas.
First Announcement of intention to not run for the
next election came Thursday morning at the Sampson
County School Board work
session.
“She knew that other children and their families
would be going without,” said Traci. “We were driving and McKenzie, out of the blue, just said, ‘Mom,
I know what I want to do, I want to help children in
need for Christmas.”
Sampson County Board of
Education member Glenn
Tart announced at the end of
Thursday’s work session that
he will not seek re-election to
the County School Board.
McKenzie continued surprising her family by saying
she wanted to have a lemonade stand and yard sale
to help raise money for those children in need.
Tart, who has served on the school board for the past 12 years stated, “I will not
seek re-election; it has been a good run!” Board Chairman, Dewain Sinclair stated,
“Glenn, you have put your heart and soul into this position.”
All board members spoke fondly of Tart and acknowledged their desire for him
to reconsider. Tart noted that by his early announcement he hoped it would give
others time to consider running for his open position. Filing for the March 2016
Primary begins on December the 1st 2015.
Her brother, Kaden, agreed by saying, “that is a
great idea”.
“We were really surprised,” added Traci. “Of course,
it makes us proud, because they have always been
very giving kids and they have always been taught
to be thankful for what they do have. But to have it
come out-of-the-blue like that was a surprise. They
just knew that they wanted to raise money for those

Reception Held for Smith
and Pope at L.C. Kerr
3
The Clinton City Board of Education held a floating reception for retiring principal Jan Smith
and incoming principal Jennifer Pope on Wednesday afternoon at L.C. Kerr School. The Media
Center at Kerr was full with refreshments, gifts and colleagues wishing Mrs. Smith well as she
embarks on the next chapter of her life. While saying farewell to Smith, the gathering of friends,
family and fellow educators also welcomed Mrs. Jennifer Pope as the new principal at L.C. Kerr.
Jan Smith spent the last 4½ years leading the students and staff at L.C. Kerr. Prior to that, Smith
served 3 years at Clinton High School as an assistant principal. In total, Jan Smith has devoted 19
years to educating children at Clinton City Schools. About her retirement, Smith said, “I am looking forward to the new adventures, I’m just not sure where those new adventures will lead me.”
“I will miss the children and the staff at L.C. Kerr. They are a wonderful group and work extremely hard,” said Smith. “There are many good things happening at this elementary school, and I’m
sure more good things will continue to happen.”
Smith added, “I am excited to know that Kerr School will be left in the very capable hands of Mrs.
Jennifer Pope… She will do a great job!”
Jennifer Pope, once a student at L.C. Kerr herself, stated that she was delighted to be able to return as principal. It was at L.C. Kerr that she first began her studies as a student, and it was L.C.
Kerr, where as a mother she first sent her two sons.
“I'm very excited about this new endeavor,” stated Pope. “Not often is an individual afforded a

Both McKenzie and Kaden went through all of their
toys and clothes and chose what they wanted to sell
in the yard sale.
“They asked me every week when we were going
to have it,” Traci explained. “I made a date (November 7) and they circled it on the calendar. They were
couldn’t wait because they were so excited.”
When the day of the sale came, McKenzie and
Kaden were up and ready to work at 6 a.m., noted
Traci.
“They got up and started the yard sale and sold
lemonade early,” she said. “They were ready to go.
There were no arguments and everything went really well.”
So much so that the children told their mother they
wanted to make the sale an annual event. Next year,
chance to return to where their own educational experience began and given the opportunity to
help instill a love for learning in the minds of our young people.”
Jennifer Pope began her teaching career at Hargrove Elementary in 1994. She spent 9 years at
Hargrove before returning to L.C. Kerr as a teacher. Pope taught at Kerr for another 9 years before being named Assistant Principal at Butler Avenue three years ago. And just a little over two
weeks ago, Pope was named the new principal at Kerr when Jan Smith announced her retirement.
“I look forward to working with our talented staff and students as we strive to ensure a strong
academic foundation for all,” states Pope. “I appreciate all the support that I have received over
the years from my family (my husband- DeLeon, our sons Landon and Tanner, my mother Elease
and mother-in-law Charlotte), colleagues and friends.”
the sale will be in early November as well, however, the family will promote the event more in hopes to
help more local families.
“They raised about $40,” Traci said. “They sold a lot
of lemonade and their toys and clothes. What they
didn’t sell, they wanted to donate it to the Crisis Center, which is what we did. We just hope that it will be
bigger next year.”
Although she was reluctant to have a feature story
done about the children, Robinson agreed in hopes to
inspire others to help such a wonderful cause.
“That is the main reason why,” she explained. “We
hope that their story will inspire others to get involved,
as well as bring more awareness to those in need
during the holidays.”
According to Lesia R. Henderson, Family Caregiver Support Specialist, Sampson County Department
of Aging, the funds the children raised will be used
in buying Christmas presents for a grandchild being
raised by their grandparents.
The Sampson Weekly
SAMPSON COUNTY’S COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER
“When I received the call from Mrs. Robinson I was
so touched that these two children were willing to
make a sacrifice to sell their toys,” Henderson admitted. “In addition to that they were willing to give
up play time to sell the lemonade. What hearts of
mission to do this in order to help another child that
is less fortunate ...”
Henderson said the two youngsters’ efforts are something we could all learn from this holiday season.
“We all could learn a simple lesson from Kaden and
McKenzie, it is better to give than receive,” she said.
“The effort that Kaden and McKenzie have given in
order to help other children is greatly appreciated.
The Family Caregiver Support Program is a vital
part of Sampson County Department of Aging and
the helping hands of these two children do make a
difference.”

King continued, “The general mood of the public, one is of disbelief, first from
the board passing the gravel/sand mine on the Big Easy track. Secondly, that
something this huge is allowed to be decided on by a board that was appointed
and not by a board that has been elected by the citizens of Sampson County, and
third, that the citizens of Sampson County, according to the planning board, our
opinions and the effect that it will have on our daily lives does not matter.”

“The governing boards of both jurisdictions have placed a lot of trust and faith in our team,”
adds Rose. “And we take that very seriously. They are the legislative body. They make the
policy. They adopt the rules. Then it’s our job to administer those rules. One thing I often like

project. It could be as small as an accessory building in the back yard or it could be as big as
Kansas City Sausage or Enviva, the wood pellet company that’s being constructed now. In

Treating Diabetic Eye Disease
9
technologies being employed to fight the more advanced
forms of diabetic eye disease. Today I’ll talk about the
consequences of diabetic eye disease if treatment is
delayed or ineffective.
-Q
by R. Thomas
Barowsky, MD
During National Diabetes Awareness Month I have
been discussing the impact of diabetes on the eyes and
the treatments available to protect our vision from this
serious cause of blindness.
Diabetes is the second leading cause of permanent
vision loss in this country. Studies have shown an
increasing incidence of diabetes in our population, most
likely due to the increased consumption of a high sugar
diet, increased obesity and decreased physical activity.
This means many more Americans risk the vision
stealing effects of this disease.
In the previous columns I spoke about how diabetes
causes a weakening of the blood vessels in the retina
that leads to leakage of blood into the retinal tissues.
In addition, the vessels are less efficient at bringing
blood to the retina causing the retina to make new
but very fragile blood vessels to increase the blood
flow to the retina. Additionally I discussed the value
of laser technology in controlling the vision stealing
effects of diabetes and I introduced some of the newer
The fragile new vessels in the back of the eye are prone
to tear. When this happens bleeding will occur inside the
back of the eye called a vitreous hemorrhage. In many
cases the initial bleeding is mild and may only partially
block the vision. In more serious cases the bleeding can
completely fill the back of the eye severely reducing vision
and giving light a reddish glow. In most cases the blood
will be broken down by the eye and over time disappear.
This doesn’t mean everything is okay. If the vessels
will bleed once they will bleed many more times if not
treated. Over the course of time, as the bleeding recurs,
scar tissue starts to form in the vitreous in the back of the
eye. Like any scar tissue it will start to contract or shrink
pulling on the retina where it is attached and causing
a traction retinal detachment. Caught early enough, a
surgical procedure can be performed to remove the scar
and reattach the retina preserving the vision. In extreme
cases this is not nearly as effective and the patient may
end up not only watching their own diet but also the diet
of their new dog.
The fragile vessels that can grow in the back of the eye
also can grow in the front of the eye on the iris. When
this occurs the vessels lay down a membrane to allow
them to continue to grow from the pupil towards the
drainage angle at the edge of the iris. These vessels
and their membrane block the drainage angle causing
the pressure in the eye to go very high. This leads to
sudden blurring of vision, severe eye pain and redness.
To protect whatever vision the patient has, immediate
reduction of the pressure is necessary.
Finally, uncontrolled and untreated diabetes can damage
the blood vessels of the optic nerve and cause blindness
because the nerve doesn’t get enough blood flow.
If you are a diabetic you can protect your sight by carefully
monitoring your blood sugars, maintaining a healthy
blood pressure and getting annual dilated eye exams to
monitor changes in your eyes should they occur.
I hope you have a festive and fruitful Thanksgiving and
are careful about those extra calories whether you are a
diabetic or not.
If you have questions about your eye health e-mail Dr.
Barowsky at [email protected] and we’ll try to answer
your questions here at Eye-Q.
Aphasia Workshop Headed to Bellamy Center in Clinton
Support Specialist for the Sampson County
Department of Aging, Maura English Silverman,
Founder/Director of the Triangle Aphasia Project
Unlimited, will provide information on Aphasia, ways
to improve communication and why there is new
hope for individuals suffering with communication
disorders as a result of stroke or other brain injury.
* Participants must pre-register by Dec. 8
Aphasia is a communication disorder that affects over
1,000,000 Americans and that number is expected to
double by the year 2020.
The disorder impairs a person’s ability to process
language, but does not affect intelligence. Aphasia
impairs the ability to speak and understand others.
According to the National Aphasia Association,
November is Aphasia Caregivers Month and the
association will focus its news and updates on the
people who support, help, and encourage those
struggling with Aphasia – the caregivers.
Henderson added that workshop participants will
have an opportunity to learn the basic techniques of
Learning to Speak Aphasia and ask questions/provide
situations for problem solving.
The workshop is an important one for those suffering
from the disorder.
“Aphasia is a communication disorder that can be
isolating and will impact the individual’s family,
friends and the community where he/she lives,” notes
Henderson. “Imagine knowing what you want to say,
yet being unable to communicate those thoughts and
ideas. Imagine the frustration of intact intellect and
memory, but impaired language functioning. How
would that impact your daily life? -- making a phone
call, reading a story to your child/grandchild, working

FAITH
Have I Got A Story To Share With You!
by Debra Joy Wallace
the way was highly recommended to us). Based
on x-rays and physical assessment findings
the surgeon’s conclusion is … Mother needs a
“revision total knee replacement”. For various
reasons, including wear and loosening, the
artificial metal joint is no longer in alignment. The
misalignment of the “metal hardware” is what’s
causing Mother to have pain and a lack of stability
… her left knee “gives in” whenever she stands
or walks.
Ever feel out-of-whack? Like things in your life are
not working right? Here’s this week’s story …
For many years my Mother has had problems with
her left knee. A little more than five years ago she
underwent total knee replacement surgery and
her left knee joint was replaced with an artificial
joint. Mother had hoped for good results. Instead,
she received two fractures during the surgery.
going okay until the surgeon asked Mother, “Who
performed your knee surgery?” Mother replied,
“You did!” She then gave me one of her stares
and I knew right then that she’d never allow that
surgeon to ever touch her knee again. (What
made the situation even more absurd is that the
surgeon had Mother’s medical record/history in
his hands when he asked her, “Who performed
your knee surgery?”)
Since surgery Mother has “lived with” pain and
an out-of-whack knee. She’s lived with her knee
condition for so long that’s she’s built up a tolerance
for the pain. That is until a couple of months ago
when her left knee pain reached the “unbearable”
level. It was only then that Mother agreed to return
to the surgeon who’d performed her surgery.
A few weeks ago, I took mother to see another
orthopedic surgeon and already the difference
between the two surgeons is like night and day.
Grant it, at this point the difference is based solely
on their compassion and taking the time to listen
… to “really listen” to Mother … and yes, to me
too.
So, I made mother an appointment with the surgeon
and took her in for her appointment. Things were
Earlier this week Mother returned to the
“compassionate” orthopedic surgeon (who by
START LIGHT, STAR BRIGHT,
FIRST STAR I SEE TONIGHT
Unless things change, mother will have the
revision total knee replacement surgery this
upcoming January. During the surgery all of the
metal hardware in mother’s left leg and knee will be
removed and replaced with specialized implants
that have longer and thicker stems. The longer
and thicker stems will fit deeper inside Mother’s
bones … giving her extra support. Though this
type of surgery is much more complex and the
recovery period is longer (up to a year), Mother
is excited to know that she may soon be more
mobile and free of knee pain.
If your life is out-of-whack in some way … do
something about it. Don’t just sit around for years
and do nothing! Take control of your situation. Be
persistent. More importantly, ask God for guidance
and help. Then do as He leads you. Do it, even if
you’re afraid.

The Sacredness
of Remembering
Deuteronomy 8:18a – “But remember the
Lord your God…”
By Vanessa
W. Polk
Sandwiched between the ghoulishness of
Halloween and the commercialization of Christmas, Thanksgiving offers a holy pause, a hallowed moment designed to
engage us in a sacred act. Thanksgiving is a season of remembering –a pause to reflect, to pray and praise. It’s the time of
the year we recall past events and past blessings. It is also the
time of year we think about loved ones and friends who are
no longer with us. Remembering mingles the past with the
present; together they offer hope for the future. As we celebrate Thanksgiving with family and friends, it is my hope that
our individual and collective act of remembering will result
in unbridled thanks to God. If your memory needs a little bit
of priming, I challenge you to remember a few of the things
listed here, or feel free to make your own list of things for
which you want to express gratitude to the Lord your God.
I’m sure it won’t be long before your feelings of thanksgiving
begin to well up within and praise will spring forth from your
lips like a foundation.
Remember the Lord your God and think of God’s goodness to
you. –“Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His
mercy endures forever.” (Psalm 136:1a)
What do you like best about autumn? That’s a hard question
for me to answer because I love so many things about this
time of the year! In fact, autumn is my favorite season.
The leaves on trees turn a brilliant orange, yellow, and
red. Some trailing vines turn a vibrant scarlet as well.
Goldenrods burst into a glowing yellow along ditch banks
and the edge of fields. It looks as if God dipped into His
majestic paint box and painted the earth so beautifully it
must be something akin to heaven.
Bright orange pumpkins and kind looking scarecrows
decorate yards and porches. Beautiful berries hang thick in
bushes and holly trees. My beautyberry bushes are covered
in spectacular purple berries. How wonderful they are!
My holly tree is dressed from head to toe in bright ruby red
berries. Not much can compare with its beauty!
As the air turns crisp and a bit nippy, it’s time to pull out
those sweaters and jackets that have been tucked away for
months! The cool autumn air invites you to come out and
just take in all the beauty that surrounds you. Breathe deep
and savor the smells of fall. Bite into a luscious, shiny red
candy apple! Or a warm piece of pumpkin pie! The tastes
of fall!
One sweet memory I have of this season is the hotdog
cookouts we had when I was a child. Nothing fancy. Daddy
would build a fire about dark. He would hand each of us a
stick he had cut out of the woods and he had sharpened on
the end.
We stuck a Frosty Morn hotdog on it and held it over the
fire until it was roasted just right! Then Daddy took it off
the stick and Mama would put the hotdog in a bun or slice
of “light bread,” whichever we happened to have. Ketchup
in a glass bottle, mustard in a round glass jar, and onions
completed it. Potato chips were the side dish!
Those were some of the best tasting hotdogs I have ever
eaten! Afterwards Mama pulled out a bag of those huge
fluffy white marshmallows and they were popped onto that
pointy stick and held to the fire! Not for long though, they
burned quickly!
We had so much fun around that fire in the cool autumn
night air. After eating, we sang songs and tried to count the
stars in the black velvet sky. Twinkle, twinkle little star was
sung with great enthusiasm. We would also chant, “Star
light, star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish
I might, have the wish I wish tonight,” and quickly close our
eyes and make a wish!
We would try to see the face of the man in the moon if the
moon was full. Sometimes Daddy told us ghost stories,
always careful that they weren’t too scary, lest we would be
afraid to sleep in our own beds that night!
Oh, the sweet wonderful memories of autumn nights of
long ago. We didn’t have the fancy entertainment devices
of today. What we did have was love, imagination and each
other. We talked and laughed instead of having our eyes
glued to a cell phone, computer screen or TV.
We spent time together as a family.
We enjoyed Frosty Morn weenies like
they were T-bone steak, nothing fancy
or expensive. Just a happy family on a
simple farm in the country sitting round
a crackling fire on a crisp, star-filled
autumn night. We were so blessed.
What beautiful, precious memories to
cherish for a lifetime.

Remember how the Lord your God gave you daily bread and
grace sufficient for every need. –“My grace is sufficient for
you.” (2 Corinthians 12:9)
Remember how the Lord your God gave you peace when the
winds of grief and misfortune tossed you back and fore. –
“[Jesus] said to the sea, “Peace be still!” (Mark 4:39)
Remember how the Lord your God was with you, healed you,
and helped you to endure your hardships. –“The Lord is with
me as a mighty awesome One.” (Jeremiah 20:11)
Remember how the Lord your God answered your prayers.
–“Hear, O Lord, and have mercy on me: Lord, be my helper!”
(Psalm 30:10)
Life Focus: Don’t let this Thanksgiving season be nothing
more than Black Friday sales and shopping, give pause to
spend time reflecting on God’s goodness and expressing your
gratitude for who God is and all God has done for you, all
God is doing for you right now, and all that God is going to
do for you in the future. Don’t let this Thanksgiving be just
food and football; give pause to pay full attention to the faithfulness of God and the new mercies God gives you each day.
The heart of Thanksgiving is not the taste of the turkey, but
tasting the goodness of God – “Oh, taste and see that the Lord
is good.” Thanksgiving is more than a day, it’s even more
than a season; Thanks-giving is a lifestyle of remembering
the Lord our God and offering thanks to God in our words
and deeds. “Count your blessings, name them one by one,
count your blessings, see what God hath done!” From my
home to yours, I extend my wishes and prayers that you will
experience a blessed Thanksgiving, a glorious Christmas, and
a very prosperous New Year.
“Thank you, Lord, for saving my soul, thank you Lord, form
making me whole; Thank you, Lord, for giving me Thy salvation so rich and free.”

How to Handle Frozen Meat
Working with frozen meat from a quality supplier
not only ensures top-notch quality for your holiday
dinner, it adds convenience during a busy time of
year. Follow this advice from the experts at Omaha
Steaks to handle your frozen meats with care.
n
For meats that have been vacuum sealed in
plastic wrap, store in a freezer for up to three
months.
n
For best results, thaw in the refrigerator to allow
for juicier, more flavorful steaks. Always leave
the wrapper on while thawing. Use these approximate guidelines for thawing in a refrigerator set
to 36-40 F:
Large roast
4 to 7 hours per pound
Small roast
3 to 5 hours per pound
Steak (1-inch) 12 to 14 hours
Whole turkey 1 day per 4 to 5 pounds
Poultry parts 1 day per 1 to 2 pounds
n
For quick, safe thawing place meat in cold water
while still in its wrapper.

& The Sampson Weekly
Union’s Katie Hunter Using Her
Talents On and Off the Court
As a freshman and sophomore, Hunter
played on the junior varsity and varsity volleyball squads. The Lady Spartans made
the playoffs in her freshman year and went
to the second round of the playoffs in her
junior year.
However, Hunter admits that leaving the
court after their 3-0 loss to Midway on October 20, was difficult.
“It was bittersweet,” she said of her final
game in high school. “But I leave knowing
that I had a great time here.”
Born and raised in Sampson County, Hunter began her sports career at an early age.
She trained in gymnastics for five years and
also recreation volleyball.
Union High School volleyball standout Katie Hunter said she was ‘surprised’ when
she learned that she has been named this
week’s Performance Auto/Sampson Weekly Star Athlete of the Week.
“I am really surprised about getting this
award,” the 18-year-old senior said. “I am
very happy ... it is a really good feeling.”
Hunter, a setter on the team, said that even
though her team finished this season with a
4-15 record (3-11 in the conference), missing the playoffs, she felt they played well
and finished the season with a great attitude.
“I thought we had a good team,” the senior
captain said. “We worked really well together and played our best as a team.”
The team, whose core group has played
together for years, was a close-knit group.
“We had four seniors on the team,” Hunter explained. “We all have played together
over the years and have played together for
a while now.”
“I was about 8-years-old when I started playing volleyball,” Hunter admitted. “My older
sister (Kasey, now 23) played travel softball and I got involved with that when I was
about 12.”
Hunter pitched on her travel softball team,
by middle school she would be playing second base.
She played softball for the Lady Spartans in
her freshman and sophomore year, but decided to focus on volleyball simply because
she loved playing the sport better.
“I can’t really explain why I love volleyball so
much,” Hunter noted. “It just came natural to
me and I just loved playing it.”
With the unwavering support of her older sister, her parents, Donna Register and Tommy Hunter, as well as two younger brothers,
Lee Hunter and Lucas Maynard, Hunter
kept working hard to get better at whatever
she tackled.
As solid as she is on the volleyball court,
Hunter is just as strong in the classroom she is an all ‘A-B’ student, who cites Math as
her favorite subject.
“I am planning on going to college,” she
said. “I have been applying over the past few
weeks and I am hoping to get in.”
Hunter plans on studying physical therapy
in hopes of helping other athletes. However,
that major could change.
“A while ago it was a nurse,” she said with a
laugh, “then it was a teacher ... so, it could
change again ...”
When asked if she plans on playing volleyball at the college level, Hunter says without
hesitation, “Yes, I would love to play volleyball in college”.
But first, Hunter plans on enjoying her last
months of high school.
“I am going to miss it her because it has
been such a family atmosphere,” she said.
“But I am excited about moving on with my
future too.”
With Hunter’s focus, strong work ethic and
pleasant nature, she will no doubt go far.
“You just have to keep working at it,” she
said. “No matter what it is, you have to put in
the work to get better.”
Which is a great piece of advice for a middle
schooler coming in to Union High.
“You can’t worry about being judged, you
have to come in and put your heart into everything you do. High school is a great experience and it goes by so fast, you can’t be
worried about all of the drama.”
In addition to her family, Hunter said she
would like to send a special thank you to her
friends, teachers and supporters over the
years.
“I would also really like to thank my coach
(Krystin Moore),” she said. “She has really
been a big help to me and I just really appreciate it.”

Dark Horses Advance Easily Over Scorpions
the Horses. Clinton managed one more score with a 5 yard
run by Wright and took a comfortable 28-6 lead as they went
to intermission.
The Clinton High School varsity Dark Horses easily advanced to the second round of the state 2AA playoffs with
an impressive 49-18 victory over the North Brunswick
Scorpions in a game played last Friday night at Dark Horse
stadium in Clinton.
The explosive Clinton offense racked up over 500 total yards and was led by senior captain Rayquan Faison
who rushed for 109 yards on 18 carries that also included
4 touchdowns. Juniors Ryheem Skinner and Tyion Wright
both also had over 100 yards rushing as the Horses scored
all seven touchdowns on the ground and sophomore place
kicker Chandler Perry had a perfect 7 for 7 with the pats as
the Horses rolled.
The game started with the Horses receiving the opening
kickoff and Tyion Wright making a nifty return to midfield.
From there it only took 4 plays with Faison scoring from
the four yard line and with the pat it was a 7-0 Dark Horse
lead with 11:03 left in the first quarter. Clinton kicked off
and the Scorpions began their first possession on their own
25 where they picked up a couple first downs and moved
the ball into Dark Horse territory. The Dark Horse defense
held and the Scorpions were forced to punt. They pinned the
Dark Horses on their own 14 yard line where the Horses put
together a drive that ended with Wright getting in the end
zone from 4 yards out and with 4:32 left in the first quarter.
Clinton led 14-0. The Scorpions got a good return on the
next kickoff and were deep in Dark Horse territory and then
scored on a 20yard pass play. The Horses broke through the
Scorpion line and blocked the extra point attempt and it was
a 14-6 Clinton lead. The Dark Horses put together another
quick 75 yard drive on their next possession with Skinner
scoring from the three yard line to make it 21-6 in favor of
The Horses kicked off to start the second half and Scorpion
Jayhlen Washington took it up the sideline and North Brunswick was on the board for the second time. They tried a two
point conversion that failed and it was a 28-12 Dark Horse
lead after only 20 seconds into to the second half. The Horses began their next possession on their own 25 yard line and
Ryheem Skinner took the ball up the middle on the second
play and got all the way down to the 10 yard line. Two plays
later Rayquan Faison scored again to make it 35-12 with still
10:32 left in the third quarter. The Scorpions were forced to
pass on their next possession and junior Derek Bryant came
up with a big interception that stalled the North Brunswick
drive. The Scorpion defense held the Horses then and forced
Clinton to punt. The punt was mishandled and sophomore
center Gage Jackson punted on the fumble to get the ball
back for the Dark Horse offense. Faison again got in the end
zone for the Horses to make it a 42-12 lead as the third quarter came to an end.
The Horses got another quick score on their next possession
with Faison scoring from in close for his fourth touchdown
of the night. With the Dark Horses now just using the clock
the next time they got the ball a Scorpion lineman stripped a
Clinton runner and returned it for a North Brunswick score
and it was a 49-18 final as the game ended and the Horses advanced. Clinton was led on defense by junior Prentice Murphy with 9 solo tackles and Rayquan Faison ended up with
6 tackles The Horses improved to 9-2 and will play Wilson
Beddingfield in a second round match up Friday night Nov
20th at Dark Horse stadium. Game time is at 7:30pm

National Letter of Intent Signing Day took place on November 11. Hobbton was proud to have
one of their very own, senior Hunter Britt, taking place in the event. Hunter is the son of Barry
and Lynette Britt, and will be attending East Carolina University to play baseball in the fall.
Hunter has been a part of the Hobbton Baseball team for his entire high school career, while also
playing on several travel baseball teams, including the Dirtbags. “Playing baseball has made
an impact on my life; it has helped me to improve my work efforts, gain self-confidence and
realize I have a lot of work to do,” Hunter says. Hunter also expressed his gratefulness towards
his family and God for all of the opportunities he has been given, on and off the baseball field.
Coached by Alfonza Hooper, the Varsity Wildcats kicked off their basketball season on Tuesday,
November 17. With many returning team members, the boys started the season off strong as
they played North Johnston at home. The Wildcats led by multiple points throughout the whole
game, and by the end they were ahead by 14 points. The victory bell rang throughout the gym as
the boys beat the Panthers, 67-53. Hobbton will travel to North Johnston this Friday, November
20, and will travel to South Johnston on Tuesday, November 24.
The Lady Wildcats also hosted the Panthers from North Johnston on Tuesday night, under the
guidance of Coach Leonard Henry. Throughout the game, the girls held on, showing their improvements since last season. The Cats, however, could not hold on tight enough, and ended the
game with a close score, 46-32. Like the boys, the Lady Cats will travel to North Johnston High
School Friday night, and will travel to South Johnston High School next Tuesday, November 24.
On Friday, November 27, Hobbton will be hosting an Alumni Basketball Game at 6:30. This
game is for any former Hobbton students interested in playing. Admission is $5 for spectators
and $10 for participants.
The Cats proved to be not-so-lucky on Friday the 13th, ending their 2015 football season.
East Carolina bound! Hobbton High School senior, Hunter Britt, signs a National Letter of Intent to attend East Carolina University to play baseball. He is
joined by his parents, Barry and Lynette Britt, as well as Hobbton High Principal, Ms. Jennifer Daughtry, and Athletic Director, Mr. Russell Jones.
Hobbton took on the James Kenan Tigers twice this year, this time in the first round of playoffs.
During the first and second quarters, the Wildcats remained scoreless, while the Tigers obtained
a score of 26 by the half. For the remainder of the game, the Cats did push forward, scoring two
touchdowns. In the end, however, the Wildcats lost to the Tigers, 54-13. Coached by Robert Hill,
Hobbton ended their season with a record of 3-10 overall.

was a freshman to work really hard and told me how important grades were.”
In the community, Heinz volunteers at a local food bank and at Sampson County Parks and
Recreation as a volleyball and softball clinic volunteer.
She has also been recognized by the Carolina Region USA Volleyball as a Top 10 Junior
Referee (2015).
At her church, Heinz is involved with the adult/youth choir, as well as the praise and worship team. She is also a children’s church assistant and an assistant Sunday School teacher.
“I have been blessed with some of the best coaches,” she admitted. “Coach Davidson is
such a great volleyball coach. She knows the game and how to teach it, and is really good
at motivating. I know that I will always remember her and her coaching! I would not be
the player I am without her. My dad (Dan Heinz) was my first coach and has continued
to coach me throughout high school and club volleyball. I can always hear his voice, we
have had some rough moments and looks, but we are very close, and I can say he actually
knows what he is talking about. Coach Yarasheski, Doc, is also a great coach. I like how he
can still get out there and demonstrate the skills in softball. He is a great classroom teacher
too.”
“I know that I have a lot of work to do before August,” noted Heinz. “I am going to spend
a lot of time working on strength and conditioning and improving my first step quickness.
College volleyball is really fast and I need to be prepared for that.”
Last Wednesday Lakewood High School senior Anna Heinz officially signed to play volleyball for UNC-Pembroke.
Heinz commented on the honor, “It is very exciting to know that I will continue to get
to play volleyball! I am very thankful for that and grateful for all of the work that Coach
Davidson put in with me. It is a great day for my whole family. They have supported me
every step of the way, from dad coaching, mom making sure we had everything we needed
for club ball weekends and my extended family coming to cheer me on. I am very blessed.”

And when asked what made her choose UNCP, she stated, “Coach Davison has taken us
to the UNCP Black and Gold High School Volleyball Invitational Tournament in August
for the last two years. The first time I walk into their gym I thought I would love to play
college ball on this court.”
With Anna’s abilities on the court, she has been approached by many colleges to sign. What
was the deciding factor, to which Anna replied, “During our tournaments there (UNCP),
I was impressed with how friendly and outgoing the players were and how they were so
disciplined about making sure everything ran smoothly. Coach McGill invited me to come
and meet with her a couple weeks ago. She and the assistant AD Megan Sanger spent three
hours with me, giving me a tour of the campus, introducing me to the training staff and
even set up an interview with the Athletic Director, Mr. Christy. I got to see how wonderful
their facilities are and felt very good about Coach McGill’s long term commitment to the
program. That night I stayed and watched them play Coker College, it was a great game
and UNCP won. I liked the way the players responded to Coach McGill, and how they are
so close as teammates.”
The statistics Heinz has earned this year are staggering.
She finished the regular season #1 in in the conference in digs 693 and Aces 73 and was #
1 in the state 1A and #3 overall in digs.
Recently, Heinz was named a two-time “Player of the Match” by Max Preps for her work
against Clinton High (with 47 digs; 8 aces vs. Clinton on Aug. 19; and 62 digs; 6 kills vs.
Clinton on August 26). She also recently received the WRAL Tom Suiter “Extra Effort”
award.
She has also been named All-Cape Fear Region in volleyball in 2014; All Conference
2013/14; All County in 2012-14; Team captain 2014 and 2015; and has been a 4-year starting libero.
Heinz is also a standout softball player for the Leopards, being named All Conference
(2014); All County (2012-2014), as well as a team captain.
As talented as she is in sports, Heinz is just as superior in the classroom and in the community.
In the classroom, she carries a 4.51 GPA and has been ranked No. 1 in her class for the past
three years. Heinz is also in the BETA Club and a teacher cadet.
“For athletics, it is just my desire to be the best that I can possibly be so I can help my
team,” she admitted. “I have always loved to practice and even when I would get home
from practice I would get my dad to work with me or just work by myself. For schoolwork,
I credit my sister, Allyson, who is a junior at Pfeiffer University. She challenged me when I
The Clinton Dark Horse varsity soccer season ended at Washington Saturday
night on a 3 to 1 loss against a 25 and 1 club. Clinton finishes the season with
an overall record of 25-2-1.
This year’s Dark Horse varsity soccer team set records and achieved more
than any previous Clinton Dark Horse soccer team. Coach Brad Spell listed the
accomplishments and achievements. , “25-2-1 (Best Record); undefeated at
home 14-0-1; 25 wins (school record); fourth round (Elite Eight); Four County
Conference Champs (13-1); two All State Players (first time for the team ever
having two all-state players, only 14 all-state players are selected out of 2A.
That’s a huge accomplishment,” stated Spell.
The head coach continued, “Four All-Region Players; five All-Conference Players; ranked #1 in the state for six weeks (first time being ranked #1); obtained
the overall number two seed in the playoffs (record); Coach Spell was selected
Region Coach of the Year (fourth time); Coach Spell was selected 2A State
Coach of the year 2015; Coach Spell will coach the east team in the East/West
All-Star soccer game this summer. 2015 was a very exciting season. The Men’s
Varsity soccer team truly were a hard working group who took to the field and
accomplished almost each and every goal we set. As a coach I was impressed
by how well these young men accepted their roles throughout the season. Our
six seniors will be truly missed and we as a coaching staff are excited about
what individuals will step forward next season and lead our team. We were
blessed with all our accomplishments but still feel we have some unfinished
business to take care of. We need to take what we have learned this season
and build on it. Just showing up next season will not make it happen.”
In closing Spell said, “Thanks to the coaching staff, parents, administrators and
players for all they gave to make this season memorable.”

CSI Presentation at Clement
and Midway Elementary
Did you know that no two people have the same fingerprint, yet twins are the only
one who share the same DNA? On Friday, November 13, 2015, all fifth grade students at Clement and Midway Elementary schools attended a CSI presentation by
Assistant Chief Donald Edwards, Sgt. Alpha Clowney, Sgt. Adrian Matthews, and
Cpl. Det. Salah O’Neill, of the Clinton Police Department. These two interesting
facts and more information were shared with the fifth graders as part of the AIG
program enrichment studies going on this semester.
Students listened attentively and were very interested as Assistant Chief Edwards
described the process of crime scene investigation and what it takes to become
a crime scene detective. The detectives explained and demonstrated how to secure and process a crime scene, using special equipment and tools. AIG students
and others participated in a fingerprinting activity. Students participated by asking questions concerning various aspects of a CSI investigation. Inquiring minds
wanted to know about various careers and how to pursue the needed education in
this field. As the session ended, the presenters were pleased to hear that Sampson
County may have its’ own upcoming detectives. Students expressed appreciation
for the members of the Clinton Police Dept. in all they do to help solve and prevent crime in Sampson County. Deborah Oliver, AIG Specialist, school principals
and teachers would like to thank them for coming to our schools to share this
information with our students!

Written by: Miss Celine Marrison
On October 29th, HHS Art Club went to The Imperial Arts Center in Rocky Mount. Upon
arriving, our teacher/advisor split us up into two groups for a day of gallery tours and a
ceramic workshop.
The best part to me was participating in the the workshop. We had a chance to create our
very own clay “mug” with the help an instructor named: Mr. Brennan. After a great demonstration we spent about an hour and a half in the ceramic studio creating the art piece. It
was cool to see a “real” ceramic studio in action.
Upon finishing the workshop we joined back up with the other group and enjoyed a gourmet lunch provided by the Restaurant “Milton and Miles” located directly on the complex
campus. The curiosity of lunch was the flavors of the gourmet sandwiches. We were all
weary of it, but in the end it was absolutely delicious. It was nice to try something that I
had never had before.
After lunch, we broke back up into groups and my group headed off for a tour of the
sculpture exhibit. We also were lead through galleries where we saw other simply amazing
paintings from various artists. One exhibit was really cool. It told the story of slavery in
the United States. The paintings started out using really dark colors and the works slowly
started to incorporate bright and beautiful colors. Showing how the slavery age ended by
using symbolism of color.

This experience opened our minds and gave us a new appreciation of art and gave us lots
of ideas of how to use art in our lives. It was inspiring to see all of this, and I hope that our
community can someday have an awesome art center like this one. We really enjoyed our
trip. It was so nice to learn outside of classroom walls and visit new and exciting places.
The Hobbton High School Art Department would like to send a huge THANK YOU to the
Simple Gifts organization for providing the funding to make these trips possible. Together,
we can change the lives of students forever!

CYBER MONDAY VALUE AT SOCIAL SECURITY.GOV
By Brenda Brown
Social Security Public
Affairs Specialist in Fayetteville, NC
With the holiday season in full swing, you may find yourself
exploring those tempting online shopping deals.
The day after Thanksgiving has nearly become a holiday of its
own. “Black Friday” is the busiest shopping day of the year, with people lining
up at midnight for deals as they begin the busy holiday shopping season. The
Monday after that has become a virtual holiday, pun intended. “Cyber Monday” is
the day Internet-savvy people search for deals, all online.
But, there’s more than one way to find value on the Internet. For example, Social
Security offers many online services to the public — and they’re free and secure!
Doing business online with Social Security saves time. Now that’s an offer you
can’t refuse!
Chamber Chat
by Laura Deans
With Christmas a little over a month away, I am beginning to get in the Christmas spirit. As we all get into the
holiday spirit, I encourage you to join us for the many
festive celebrations taking place this holiday season.
Last year’s annual “Christmas in the City” event once
again received rave reviews where over 400 guests enjoyed the event’s activities. We are excited about this
year’s event as it will be the fifth annual Christmas in the
City on Thursday, December 3rd, 2015. We encourage
you to join us in downtown Clinton for the tree lighting
celebration at 5:30pm followed by a wide variety of events including museum tours,
carriage and hay rides, gingerbread decorating, live entertainment, and much more. We
look forward to another great event with an evening full of festive activities and we
encourage you to come to the Courthouse Square to search for a great Christmas gift
for someone special. What a great way to Christmas shop while also contributing to our
local businesses by “buying local first.”
I just want to encourage the community to shop local this holiday season and to remind
you of the importance of supporting our local businesses. The Saturday after Thanksgiving, November 29th, is Small Business Saturday. I encourage each of you to stop
in to local businesses and first off, thank them for their support of the community and
their dedication to our local economy. Secondly, I encourage you to support them and
shop local.
I think Santa is planning to make another appearance at this year’s Christmas in Clinton parade! Join Santa and his reindeer on December 12th for the Christmas in Clinton
parade at 10:00am in downtown Clinton. The Christmas in Clinton Parade is truly a
staple to our County seat and we look forward to another great family fun tradition. If
you are interested in being a part of the Parade, visit our website at www.clintonsampsonchamber.org to view the application or give us a call at 592-6177. Please submit
your parade applications by November 27th in order to be on Santa’s list.
Lastly, the Chamber’s Coat Closet will continue throughout the month of November.
Drop off your new or gently used coats at one of the 35 drop off sites located throughout Sampson County. We encourage you to give the gift of warmth this winter.
As always, thank you again to each of the volunteers and committed business and
community leaders that have come together to ensure these festive events are a part
of Sampson County. It is because of the partnerships and strong attendance that these
events are able to continue and grow. We look forward to another festival holiday
season.
Congratulations
