Transylvania County In Top 20 For Health in the State of NC

Transylvania is ranked in the top 20, according to the 2010 County Health Rankings, which look at the overall health of North Carolina’s100 counties.

The counties received two rankings: health outcomes, which represent how healthy a county is, and health factors, which looks at what influences a county’s health.

Transylvania was ranked 17th under health outcomes and sixth under health factors.

The health outcomes ranking is based on mortality (the length of life) and morbidity (health-related quality of life and birth outcomes).
Health factors take into account several areas, including education, income, tobacco use, community safety, diet and exercise, and access to health care and its quality.

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute calculated the rankings for each state.

The goal is to provide counties with a snapshot of their overall health and how they compare with other counties.

Buncombe County was ranked 25th for health outcomes and ranked third for health factors. Henderson County was ranked 33rd for outcomes and fifth for factors. Jackson County was ranked 12th for outcomes and 31st for factors. Haywood County was ranked 56th for outcomes and 19th for factors.

Closer Look

Under health outcomes in the mortality rankings, Transylvania came in at 28, while in the morbidity rankings the county was ranked at 13.

Health factors took into account four areas, with each county being given a ranking, as well:

• Health behaviors — smoking, diet and exercise, alcohol use and risky sex behavior. Transylvania’s ranking was 17th.
• Clinical care — access to care and its quality. Transylvania was ranked 4th.
• Social and economic factors — education, employment, income, family and social support, and community safety. Transylvania was ranked 4th.
• Physical environment — environmental quality and built environment.

Transylvania was ranked 79th. This ranking is based on air quality measures, such as unhealthy air due to ozone and particulate matter.

The built environment corresponds to access to health foods and the number of liquor stores.

Rodeway Inn Re-opens in Brevard NC

Rodeway Inn Back Open For Business
Mark Todd, Staff Writer 23.FEB.10
Marc Rosenbalm, the new general manager of the Rodeway Inn in Brevard, is happy to be in town and looking to bring one of Transylvania County’s largest lodging facilities back to good health.

The inn on Asheville Highway was closed for about 18 months, but has reopened under new ownership and management.

Rosenbalm, Lisa Lunsford, and Nicole Ferrell are the new owners of the inn, which originally opened in 1963 and for years was Brevard’s only large motel or hotel.

They purchased the inn from Asheville Savings Bank in a foreclosure sale.
Until recent years, the property was known as the Imperial Motor Lodge.
Later, the name was changed to the Rodeway Inn and a prior ownership group made major renovations to the property in 2007.

Rosenbalm’s group is also associated with two Rodeway Inn properties in Asheville, and he has been the general manager of a Rodeway location near Biltmore Square Mall.

Brutal winter weather since mid-December has been bad for the hotel and motel business, he said.

He has lived in the Asheville area since 1986 and said the only winter that compares with this one in that time was 1992-1993.

Rosenbalm said the new owners plan to reopen the pub and swimming pool at the site in Brevard this spring and have already done some additional upgrades, including new 32-inch LCD flat screen televisions for the motel rooms and new mattresses for beds.

He said despite the fact that the property closed and went into foreclosure, the new owners found the facility to be in excellent condition.

“It is a very well built building, constructed of brick,” he said. “It is true, they don’t build them like they used to. I like the curb appeal of the motel. It’s nostalgic.”

He said the style of the hotel, with expansive grounds and 67 units spread out horizontally over several acres, all with parking in front of the rooms and single story construction, reminds him of the places he used to stay as a younger man.

New hotels and motels these days are often built with interior corridors and are several stories high, which some people say makes them feel safer.
Rosenbalm said there is traditionally a high turnover rate in the hotel industry, but his company values its employees, treats them well, and has some workers who have been with the company for 15 years.

“They can find a home with us,” he said. “We are a little different than most hotel companies.”

Rosenbalm said the company strives for excellence, since nowadays visitors can easily slam a hotel if they have an unpleasant stay by posting something on web sites such as tripadviser.com.

“The Internet can be harsh,” he said. “What used to be word of mouth is now on the Internet for everyone to see.”

Unfortunately for hotel owners, he said, people who are mad about something are much more likely to make comments than people who are pleased.

He isn’t worried about competition from other hotels in Brevard such as the Hampton Inn and the Holiday Inn Express, he said.

The Rodeway prices itself lower than those properties and is described as an “economy” class facility.

Thirty of the 67 units on site have been made available, with others to be added later in the spring, he said.

Brevard's Zero Gravity indoor skateboard park

Mark Todd, Staff Writer 19.FEB.10
Brevard’s Zero Gravity indoor skateboard park changed ownership recently, when Tim Brenton and Barbara Kreager sold the park to Michael Hosey and his wife, Heather.

“Our goal has been to offer our skaters the benefits of healthy physical activity, in a wholesome Christian environment, with their safety ensured by professional adult supervision,” said Barbara, who opened the park with Tim eight years ago.

She said Hosey has been a valued friend and employee at the Old Hendersonville Highway park in the past. She and her husband are comfortable in letting their “baby” move into his hands while they have more time for themselves.

“Passing the torch to Michael ensures our goals and standards will continue to be met,” she said.

The skate park is Brenton’s third business since taking an early retirement from the phone company. An entrepreneur at heart, Brenton is now available for the next opportunity to present itself, he said.

“Traveling, golf, and relaxing are the top priorities for now,” Brenton said.

“We have met wonderful families and have enjoyed watching some of these kids grow up. We couldn’t be happier that Michael is able to take over.”

Hosey graduated from Brevard High in 1998. He then attended Appalachian State University and graduated with a degree in recreation. He helped open the skateboard park and managed it until 2006.

Hosey and Heather have a 2-year-old son, Finn, with another child on the way. Hosey said he looks forward to owning a business in the sport he loves.

He has taught skateboard lessons at a summer camp in Pennsylvania, and is a certified snowboard instructor, as well.

No immediate changes will take place with the new ownership. The park’s operating hours and admission rates will remain the same.

The park will still be available for private rentals.

The park has been popular with preschool children who use the ramps as gigantic slides.

The park will also continue to offer martial arts classes, “Toddler Time,” after school specials and “Skate Church” on Thursday nights.

“It’s business as usual,” said Hosey, with the exception of adding “Girls Night” on Tuesdays when admission for girls will be $2.

In addition to multiple ramps, the skate park hosts a complete concession area, pro shop and party room.

A safe place to skateboard was identified as a need in Brevard’s Focus 2020 study, a grassroots community planning effort.

After much urging by Tim and Barbara’s twin sons, Nick and Joe, Tim started developing the business plan for the park while Barbara researched existing facilities around the country.

The resulting project was a 12,000 square foot building, with a professionally designed and built skate floor.

The ramps are covered with top of the line “skatelite” while metal transitions to the concrete floor make for a smooth ride.

There are ramps, half pipes, drop ins, horseshoes, and all kinds of structures that create fun and challenging skating. Skateboarders, inline skaters, scooters and bikers use the facility, which is the largest of its type in western North Carolina.

Eighty percent of the skaters are under the age of 18, with an average age being around 14.

Their oldest skater is 69, and he also runs the Bible study on Thursdays.
Attendance since opening day has been more than 65,000, with many of those customers making Brevard their tourist destination.

Brevard council hammers out zoning plan

BREVARD — A proposed compromise zoning ordinance for 640 acres in PisgahForest got the thumbs up from Brevard City Council Monday.
The zoning plan was unveiled during a joint meeting between the council and Transylvania County Commissioners in the Rogow Room at the Transylvania County Library.
The process began initially as the city was considering its options for Extraterritorial Jurisdiction extension.
Extraterritorial jurisdiction under state law allows a city government to extend its boundaries without annexing an area. The city can extend its zoning authority up to 1 mile beyond the city limits. PisgahForest residents expressed concern that they would rather be regulated by the county than the city and a joint city/county committee was established last year to explore options.
In May, Brevard City Council members cited the DavidsonRiverVillage development and the properties fronting U.S. 64 between N.C. 280/276 and Davidson River Road as primary areas for growth in the near future. At the time, council members said they were motivated to take action on a possible ETJ by the fear that uncontrolled growth would occur if some kind of zoning were not in place.
Council members praised the proposed zoning ordinance as being a good management tool.
“Committee members had their own personal feelings on this, but they sat down and crafted a plan that works for everybody,” said Councilman Rodney Locks. “They’ve done good work and I think the city is happy with what they’ve done.”
In the report presented Monday, the planning board is recommending an Open Use form of zoning in order to minimize the impact on property owners who are not located on N.C. 280 or U.S. 64.
Eleven high-impact “special uses” fall under county regulation, said Transylvania County Planning Director Mike Thomas. Those uses include industry, solid waste management facilities, mining operations, concrete and asphalt plants, incinerators, junk yards, slaughtering plants, amusement parks, chip mills and motor sports facilities. These are not outlawed for use in the Open Zoning, but would be subject to conditions set forth by the county. Prohibited uses are adult entertainment establishments, hazardous waste facilities and radioactive waste facilities.
The proposed zoning ordinance also creates two districts — a Corridor Mixed-Use District comprised of U.S. 64 and NC 280 and an Open Use District that would include parcels that touch or border the U.S. 64 and NC 280 corridors.
City Councilman Mack McKeller said he was pleased with the proposed zoning ordinance presented Monday. He said that the city will still pursue extending its ETJ to a few small parcels in the U.S. 64 and NC 280 corridors that already have city water and sewer lines. But the area is far from the scale that the city was talking about including in a possible ETJ when the issue first came up a couple of years ago, he added.
“The (county) planning board went to work, rolled up their sleeves and, very much in good faith, did a really good job in putting together an ordinance that will address our (city’s) concerns,” McKeller said. “This means if the county adopts the zoning ordinance that was proposed, as far as I’m concerned, the ETJ issue goes away.”
Brevard Mayor Jimmy Harris said a review of the proposed zoning ordinance by city staffers, city planning board and council members left a “satisfactory” impression.
“The city council allowed the county to see if they could come up with a document that would satisfy the citizens of Brevard, that would allow us to extend our utility system,” he said.
“Our utilities are an expensive part of infrastructure that requires a lot of maintenance, and city residents don’t want it abused, so we manage it and at the county’s request, we were asked to look at a document. We find it quite satisfactory and we agree that it is a good management tool and we accept it as presented. This puts them in a good position to take action on it. We urge them (commissioners) to move forward with it.”
The proposed zoning ordinance could be on a county commission agenda for the March or April meeting.

The History of Henderson County North Carolina

Henderson was formed in l838 from Buncombe County. It was name in honor of Leonard Henderson, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. It is in the western section of the state and is bounded by the state of South Carolina and Transylvania, Haywood, Buncombe, McDowell, Rutherford, and Polk counties. The present land area is 374.00 square miles and the population was 89,173.
The first court was to be held at the home of Hugh Johnston, at which time the justices were to decide on a place for future courts until a courthouse was erected. Commissioners were named to acquire land, lay out a town, and erect a courthouse. This town was to be named Hendersonville. The commissioners selected a site which is now called Horse Shoe, but much dissatisfaction developed over the selection and two factions arose, one called the River party and the other the Road party. The River party favored the Horse Shoe site.
In 1839, the Road party enjoined the sale of lots of the site selected at Horse Shoe and the controversy soon became so heated that the Legislature ordered an election to be held to determine the location by popular vote. The Road party was successful. In 1840, Hendersonville was laid out on land deeded by Michael King of Charleston, South Carolina, for that purpose. Hendersonville is the county seat. Henderson County was named for Chief Justice of the State Supreme Court, Judge Leonard Henderson who died in 1833, five years before the county was created. Hendersonville received its original charter in the 1840s with a population of several hundred people.

The county of Henderson is called a typical mountain county, because it consists of these elements: mountain ranges, isolated peaks, a rolling plateau, and level valley areas. Elevations range from 1,400 feet near Bat Cave at the foot of the Blue Ridge, to 5,000 feet on Little Pisgah Mountain.
Henderson County is located on a intermountain plateau and is almost circled by mountains. To the west, the county touches the Pisgah Ledge, and to the east and south borders the Blue Ridge and Saluda Mountains. The county is bordered on the north side by Buncombe County, to the east by Rutherford and Polk counties, to the west by Transylvania county and to the south by South Carolina.
The first source of revenue was agriculture for the people of Henderson County. The settlers grew corn, wheat, rye, potatoes, and cabbage. Williams Mills also planted hundreds of fruit trees each year, so his fellow neighbors did the same. Henderson County now leads the state in production of apples.
Hendersonville had easy access from the lowlands and quickly became a vacation destination for tourists to spend the summer months to escape the sweltering heat, for a milder, cooler climate. Historic Hendersonville has been welcoming guests for more than a century, thus creating a strong tourism based industry. This basic economy held up after World War II. Today’s economy is based on tourism, manufacturing, agriculture and retirement.
Henderson County Town Names:
Bat Cave was named for the Bat Cave Mountain, which was named for the a huge fissure cave under the mountain that was inhabited by thousands of bats.
Balfour was named for Captain William Balfour Troy, who opened a rock quarry there in 1880.
Edneyville was named for Reverend Samuel Edney, a Methodist minister, who served as postmaster and magistrate.
Etowah came from the Cherokee word itawa, possibly meaning city.
Flat Rock is built around a tremendous outcrop of granite which is said to have been the site of Cherokee gatherings. A great deal of rock has been blasted away and used for highway material.
Fletcher was named for the Fletcher family of which Dr. George Washington Fletcher was a prominent member.
Hendersonville was named after Judge Leonard Henderson.
Horse Shoe was named for a bend in the French Broad River on which the village is located.
Mills River was first called Mills Creek, named for William Mills, the first white settler in Henderson County.
Tuxedo was called Lakewood until it was renamed to avoid confusion with another Lakewood. Tuxedo was chosen because it was considered euphonious.
Zirconia was named for the zircon mines once operated there.

Cantrell Creek Trout Fish Farm

Yesterday I visited one of Transylvania Counties most high tech Fish Farms, and wanted to share my experience. Since pictures and videos speak a thousand words I thought you would enjoy seeing an operating trout fish farm and see us dip out a couple rainbow trout ready for the Chef in the family. TransylvaniaCounty or the Brevard NC area has always been known for some of the finest trout ever produced. Our waters are crystal clear, cold and fast running which are 3 of the key requirements of raising rainbow trout.

First here are a couple videos I posted on YouTube and at the bottom of the page you will see a link to the Fish Farm Web Site. The Trout Farm is located in an area of pristine timber lands in a cove nestled between some gorgeous property. The water is so clear I would not hesitate to take a long cool drink as it comes out of over 6000 undeveloped acres.

Dipping fish from the last run that are ready to sell or better yet eat! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmK6LJtOwyM 

Trout Farm Runs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2t3j_Z9qMvI

Link to Cantrell Creek Trout Farm http://www.stockrainbow.com/  

Here is an article from NCDA and about fishing here.

Cold, clear waters from the mountains of western North Carolina provide an excellent home for farm raised rainbow trout. North Carolina is the second largest producer of trout in the United States. Trout production in our mountains provides work and fun in one package.

Recreational trout fishing in these ponds requires no fishing license or elaborate equipment. Trout farms are located throughout our mountains, so why not plan on catching your own trout meal! Better yet...since there are no limits, catch your next meal and enough to take home to enjoy later!

Pure mountain waters yield clean, healthy and easy to catch trout - a great family outing for young and old alike. Make North Carolina trout part of your vacation plans!

There is no other fish quite like trout. Trout has a special, delicate flavor, which is delicious in itself, or it can be enhanced by the addition of various batters and sauces. There are no great mysteries to its successful preparation. So, for a quick, nutritious dinner...Try North Carolina trout!

The Perils of Hosting a Holiday Party

The Perils of Hosting a Holiday Party
 
Who is Liable When Guests Drive Drunk, Get Food-Poisoning or Hurt On Your Property?
As millions of Americans host and attend holiday parties across the street or across the country, many are unaware of the risks they may be taking, or of their own responsibilities to ensure their guests don’t hit the road drunk. Many homeowners do not think they are liable in the event that a guest becomes seriously ill from catered food consumed at the host’s home, and some don’t think they can be held responsible if a guest becomes injured on the sidewalk in front of their property. The bottom line is that homeowners can, in fact, be held responsible in any of these scenarios or accidental incidents.
 
Consider the following tips to prevent holiday party accidents and protect yourself:
·         Limit your guest list to those you know.
·         Host your party at a restaurant or bar that has a liquor license, rather in a home or office.
·         Provide filling food for guests and alternative non-alcoholic beverages.
·         Schedule entertainment or activities that do not involve alcohol. If the party centers around drinking, guests will likely drink more.
·         Arrange transportation or overnight accommodations for those who cannot or should not drive home.
·         Stop serving alcohol at least one hour before the party is scheduled to end.
·         Do not serve guests who are visibly intoxicated.
 
Depending on your situation you may need additional coverage through the purchase an inexpensive Personal Umbrella policy or an Event policy. The Event policy may include liquor liability coverage.
