RURITAN CLUBS AND COMMUNITY NEEDS VARY NATIONWIDE

By Millard Thacker (2002 National President)

During my travels as 2002 Ruritan National President, I learned quickly that Ru-ritan Clubs throughout the 25 states in which they are located must respond to a variety of community needs. These community needs may be different than what we see in our local Rougemont community and nearby communities of Ba-hama, Mount Sylvan and others. And Ruritan Clubs at different locations must function differently to meet these varied needs.

The basic needs for people might be the same wherever people are located, i.e., financial, health, physical, etc. Ruritan clubs survey their immediate communi-ties continuously to identify these needs. Then the clubs must find ways and means for meeting these needs financially and physically, head-on and quickly.

Well, this is what I learned, saw and sometimes participated in during my trav-els. Locally, we are very familiar with such fundraisers as Brunswick stews, BBQ and chicken suppers, golf tournaments, etc. Elsewhere, fundraisers may include the following:

Ruritan Club serving as the governing body managing an entire community.

The club served as the town council, making decisions effecting utilities,

businesses, housing, planning, schools, etc.

Ruritan Club developing, managing and owning a large trailer park with rental

proceeds going back into the community to meet educational and varied

community and people needs.

Ruritan Club sponsored a county fair.

Ruritan Club members worked as a group assigned to specific projects at the

local county or state fair.

Several Ruritan Clubs (in two separate states) working in partnership to cele-

brate July 4th

activities and included welcoming the sitting Ruritan Nation-

al President (and spouse) to visit and participate in all such activities.

Ruritan clubs represent “GOOD PEOPLE HAVING A GOOD TIME DOING GOOD THINGS FOR OTHERS!” You can consider becoming a member of this TEAM of volunteers by contacting any member of the Rougemont Ruritan Club or a mem-ber of any Ruritan Club anywhere who will be happy to discuss details about Ruritan. Ruritans do what they do because they CARE!

Rougemont Community Water System In Construction Construction of the Rougemont Community Water System is well under way. Construction trucks, backhoes, trenchers and all kinds of equipment have been lining Roxboro road. The work is going quickly with visible progress each day. As quickly as trenches are dug, pipe is laid, the trenches are refilled, soil compacted and grass planted with straw on top. There have been several comments that the roadside looks better in some places now than before. Drew Cummings, Assistant County Manager in charge of this project is pleased with the number of residents in the affected areas who have chosen to connect to our community water system. Hook up is free without charge to residents in the affected areas who choose to hook up now. If residents choose not to connect, they will have to pay for connection later if they change their minds. Two wells have been drilled to supply water. One well might have been sufficient, but the second well pro-vides a backup and room for future demand. Each well is equipped with a generator to maintain water supply if electricity should go out in a storm. The ‘Rougemont Critical Water Infrastructure Improvements have been well thought-out thanks to Rougemont residents who campaigned for safe water in Rougemont, our Durham County Commissioners and North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Re-sources.

Remember When…

It was back in 1948 . . .

My older sister had graduated from high school at the end of May from Bragtown High School in northern Durham, and I had been one of her class’s mascots. We lived in Durham during the four years she was in high school, and had moved back to Rougemont (we lived in the house Jay and Beth Davis live in now). My sister had a group of chums, four girls in addition to her, who spent most of their weekends together. My five older half-brothers now had homes and children of their own, so the old “barracks bedroom” with five iron bedsteads in it upstairs at our house was available. They had some grand times in that room, talking, giggling, sometimes even sleeping.

One particular weekend, my brother James and a couple cronies offered to take the girls on a hunt as a treat. They would wait for dark on Friday night, and after supper, they would take the girls…snipe hunting. My dad laughed when he heard it, my mother got very quiet. The girls didn’t notice.

In those days, girls did not wear blue jeans all that much, but Daddy told the girls to make sure to bring jeans and long-sleeved shirts to wear. He said even though it was June now, it would cool off in the woods and the brush under the trees might scratch their arms. This made sense. All five girls had long hair, so they braided each other’s locks to keep their hair out of their faces, and donned wide-brimmed straw hats my sisters used in the garden and tobacco fields. They were almost ready to go.

James and a helper came to get the girls, first giving them instruction. They were after snipe—a rare bird in these parts who could only be caught at night and

was a ground nester. About the same size as a mourning dove, and long, skinny legs. It was the same brown as last year’s leaves on the ground, had a long, long bill (for digging worms and bugs), and a soft, “whooo, wheee, hooo” call, not at all like that of an owl, who had a much louder, coarser call. When the birds heard their call from an-other bird, it meant their nest was in danger, and they would come to the call to inves-tigate.

The girls had two jobs: first, they must hold a burlap feed sack open to the woods and closed at the back, against a tree the men would show them, that could be a nest tree, chosen because the roots of the tree would hide the nest and its eggs. Second, they should make the call of the snipe to entice the birds to come, making sure the call was made every 15 seconds, no matter what. The timing must be precise, but with five girls, giving the call would be no trouble at all. The girls practiced their bird calls in the back of the pickup truck all the way (about a mile) to the woods where the hunt was to take place. They did their best to all sound the same.

The girls would stay at the tree calling the birds. The men and boys (my nephews, about my age) would go out into the woods and quietly drive the birds toward the girls. Eve-ry girl took her place. Two of the girls were the same height, and my brother pro-nounced them best suited for holding the bag open. My sister was NOT one of them.

With the girls in place, off went the men into the dark. Their biggest problem was keeping the boys quiet once they were told there was no such bird. This was a trick they were playing on my sister’s city-girl friends. The men waited about 45 minutes, then lit their coon-hunting lanterns and began to make ghostly sounds, moaning and groaning, and swatting the boys when giggles would overtake them.

Rougemont Reporter Page 7

( They got louder as they got closer to the waiting girls, waving the lanterns up in the air on long sticks as they walked.

The trick worked for my brother, almost too well. The girls began to hear the moaning and see the weak, weaving light well above them among the trees and com-ing toward them. At first they were uncertain, then one by one, they got a little scared. Soon this grew into abject terror. Three of the girls, including the two hold-ing the bag, took off for what they thought was the direction of our house, still hold-ing the sack, and screaming at the top of their lungs. The remaining two girls, per-haps even more frightened, but more confused, charged straight into the men, knocked them and their lanterns to the ground, and even going in the wrong direc-tion, made it back to the house before any of the men or boys, who not only were not lost, but still had the pickup truck parked close by.

Once the girls calmed down, they were able to laugh about the trick. The men were not quite so good-natured, however. When the two girls overran them in the woods, an elbow and a knee got misplaced somehow. My brother had a swollen eye and his buddy walked with a limp for four days.

Mama said it was “poetic justice.” Maybe it was. Moral of the story: DON’T EVER LET ANY GOOD OL’ BOYS TAKE YOU SNIPE HUNTING!

GENTLY USED SHOES: Thank you to those of you who shared gently used shoes with us by leaving them in the bin in the Ruritan Cabin in late December-early January. RECA is still participating in the non-for-profit organization who collect shoes gently used and ready for new friends to wear them. These shoes are matched with people who have a need, but no money to pur-chase shoes. All athletic wear is welcome: it is the first footwear placed with a new wearer. The only things the organization cannot use are flip-flops and boots. However, if you have those items to pass along, RECA will place them with a second agency who can place them. Easter is still a time when many folk get a new outfit, a part of that special outfit is new shoes. If you are one of those fortunate folk and will be ready to part with shoes being replaced, please consider leaving them with us. One special need is for house-bound el-ders who need slippers. Please think of them when you consider discarding your gently used shoes: any size, any style, any color! Patricia Russell, RECA

Rougemont Ruritan Board meeting. We meet at the cabin (212 Bacon Road) so that the building needs heat/air conditioning only one night instead of two. Do join us at any regular meet-ing, or at any event we either sponsor or assist in hosting. As

always, we look forward to new faces.

Rougemont Education and Ex-

tension Association (RECA)

RECA has had a busy winter and is moving into a busi-

er spring for 2016.

The Children’s Community Christmas Party on Decem-ber 6, 2015 was a success. With folk steadily moving in and out of the crowd, we counted about 60 people. The children had enthusiastic visits with Santa, chose gifts from the RECA craft efforts this last year, enjoyed the refreshments, and anticipated the breaking of this year’s pinata (a penguin made by a member of our group) at the end of the portion of the celebration at the Rougemont Ruritan Cabin on Bacon Road. Following the pinata’s candy shower, the children were carefully seated on the hayride trailer and transported 1/10 mile with a Sheriff's escort to the Community Christmas tree for the tree lighting and carol singing. Then followed hot chocolate and goodies in the Rougemont United Meth-odist Church Fellowship Hall at the Rougemont Cross-roads We gratefully acknowledge that a good time

seemed to be had by all.

RECA shared gift bags/baskets with the residents of Maple Heights Rest Home for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Plans are under way for Valentine’s and

Easter as well.

January was a watershed month because the RECA has finished installing our storage building, stored all we need to keep in it for the Christmas project, and pre-pared to donate from our bounty to several worthy causes in and around our community. In December, we happily welcomed a new member to our group, a fine young teen-ager with a heart to do for our community as we work to do. We encourage anyone else of like mind to join us as well. As you can see, youth is not a

hindrance here!

Our biggest Spring project is the Rougemont Easter Parade and Festival held annually on the Saturday be-fore Easter: in 2016, March 27. Our members will par-ticipate in the parade and shepherd a booth for infor-mation and assistance at the old school building area on Red Mountain Road. We look forward to seeing you

there.

We continue to meet on the fourth Tuesday of each month, usually at 6:00 p.m. During the short-day winter months with inclement weather, we have held our meet-ings at 4:30 p.m. in order to get as many of us as possi-ble home while there is still visibility for driving. With warmer temperature and longer days, we will return to our former 6:00 pm time, one hour before the regular

Rougemont Ruritan Youth

Rougemont Ruritan has a youth section for young folk ages 7 to 18. The group is just begin-ning to be organized again after about a year. The youth sponsor in 2014 moved away, and it has taken some time to become organized and moving again. The Youth meet an hour before the regular Rougemont Ruritan Club on the first Tuesday evening of each month at the Ruritan Cabin, 212 Bacon Road, in Rougemont. The regular adult meeting with dinner begins at 7:00 p.m. The youth meet at 6:00 p.m. and in this way, can stay for dinner with the larger group, or get home early enough for school homework and preparation for school on the next day. The group is in the pro-cess of planning for the rest of 2016 and several things are under way. The Youth will participate as much as possible in all Ruritan community events, and the first will be the Rougemont Easter Parade and Festival in March the Saturday before Easter. The youth will join the Ruritan float, por-tray the Easter Bunny and Rudy Bear, and oper-ate our own booth at the festival. We are hoping to have one or two dele-gates to the Ruritan National Youth Leadership Conference during a weekend in mid-July at W. E. Skelton 4-H Camp located at Smith Mountain Lake in Virginia. We have had delegates in the last few years, and all participants have enjoyed the food, fun, recreation, and learning. Not only our youngsters have had a good time: our chap-erones have, as well. The minimum age for the camp is nine; the maximum 19. There is a wide variety of activities available, a few structured age-appropriate classes, and great food (as attested by our boys who were the last attendees!) Regis-tration time is nearly upon us, and we would love to have more youngsters attend this year. If anyone has questions or would like more information, you may reach the Ruritan sponsor (Patricia Russell, 919-477-0681 [message] or 336-583-8223 [cell]) or contact our Youth Associate Leader (Eric Russell, 919-724-5189). Please join us. Patricia Russell
