Roots Run Deep in Small Town Life
By Courtney Danielle’ White
I am the 16 year-old daughter of Carey White of Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina, and Andrea B. Ivey of Lumberton, North Carolina. My paternal grandparents are Dean and Patti White of Bladenboro, and my maternal grandparents are John and Brenda Blackmon of Bladenboro. I attend West Bladen High School as a Junior. I’m currently a member of the Beta, Spanish, Shag, Varsity and HOSA Clubs. I play Varsity Volleyball, which happens to be my favorite sport. I truly enjoy every minute of every game. The two most comfortable places for me is on a volleyball court or on a stage singing. I don’t claim to be a “great” singer—I just enjoy singing! I sing specials at my church on a monthly basis.
How Much Does That Golf Cart Save on Gas?
By Robert Armstrong
Sept 13, 2007
“Hey, Robert, how much money does that golf cart save you on gas”? Well, that is an interesting question that I have often wondered about myself, but I really did not know the answer. I’m sure that I save some money by using my golf cart regularly on my frequent short trips within the Bladenboro town limits, but I did not know how to estimate the amount. My golf cart
does not have an odometer, so I could not tell how many miles I drive it in a year. Then one day it occurred to me that I might be able to make a reasonable estimate of how much I save by using my vehicle log books. I keep chronological log books in both of my vehicles for gas purchases and maintenance. My own curiosity was aroused, so I decided to do the math.
