SUMMERFIELD – Two state legislators who make up Robeson County and seek re-election in the November general election won the North Carolina Troop Association.
The Association friday announced its candidacy for Senator Danny Britt Jr., a Lumberton resident representing District 13, and Representative Brenden Jones, who represents District 46. Both lawmakers are Republicans.
“On behalf of the North Carolina Troop Association, we are proud of applicants who have a proven track record of law enforcement and their families,” said Danny Jenkins, president of the Association. “The citizens of North Carolina have the option to choose lawmakers who will provide law and order in North Carolina, or those who wish to repeal law enforcement and not defend men and women in blue. We expect the citizens of North Carolina to sign up for law enforcement and ely the brave applicants who will continue to be our law enforcement officials throughout North Carolina.”
The North Carolina Troopers Association was founded in 1977 to promote the principles of appropriate law enforcement, pro and moral, while supporting the continued advancement of criminal justice in the state of North Carolina. As a nonprofit fraternal organization, the Association focuses on supporting, participating, and improving active and retired members of the North Carolina Highway Patrol and their families. The Association represents more than two thousand active and retired soldiers.
I know I heard the old adage ‘make lemonade with lemons’. That’s precisely what Robeson County’s 4-H program does.
Like many programs, we cannot meet face-to-face because of the pandemic. So let’s be informed to be more artistic and think outdoors with virtual programming. In other words, our members are still informed and laughing along the way.
Summer camp, virtually? In recent months, 4-H has presented the following fields, most of them loose, to all members of 4-H: Chief Jr.; Arts and crafts; Biotechnology; Cloverbud; Night camp; Congress; Citizenship; and Junior County Retreat. Several parents said their children enjoyed and enjoyed the camps, and that they agree with the 4-H virtual long-term schedule. The campers said they were learning new things and laughed “every day.” In addition, our 4-H teenagers had the opportunity to give workshops to our young people. This has given adolescents a sense of duty and fulfillment; allowed younger 4-H members to have someone to cherish and dream of the fact that they could one day lead a group. For Robeson County’s 4-H program, those are the same hits as usual, only delivered differently.
The school is back in session. If you’re looking to complement what your child learns at school with laughter and hands-on activities, download the 4-H app. Simply go to your app store and download 4-H Now!. It’s a loose discharge. When you open the app, search for Robeson County 4-H. From there, you can sign up for 4-H, sign up for systems and contests, and see what our amazing young people are doing. Almost everything we offer is loose for our other young youth.
I know that replacing is complicated for many people, probably for most of us. We are so used to face-to-face interaction to the fullest in each and every facet of our lives, and now we speak mainly through some kind of technology. It’s not just about online education, however, many adults paint remotely and also have virtual meetings, meetings and online learning. 4-H will not only offer virtual programming to young people, but will also offer virtual education for volunteers, painting workshops and meetings to be offered to all volunteers.
Learning new tactics to do familiar things can be stressful. It is vital to keep other young people engaged, to offer hands-on activities, open discussions and interactive elements to keep them focused. Our purpose is to paint in combination effectively through partnership, execution with youth, parents, families and net paintings about this pandemic to ensure that young people in Robeson County can be as productive as possible.
Keep your children and yourself interacting with Robeson County’s 4-H program. The program offers the best combination of virtual activities for other young people and their families. Until we meet face-to-face again, we navigate new tactics to interact and be informed while we laugh virtually. Stay connected with 4-H by downloading the 4-H app, the 4-H blog on http://robeson4-h.blogspot.com/ or our online http://robeson.ces.ncsu.edu page. You can also find us on Facebook at NC Cooperative Extension, Robeson County Center. We’d love for you to help us preserve this sweet 4-H lemonade by joining the program.
For more information, contact Wendy Maynor, a wife of the 4-H Extension Youth Development Program at 910-671-3276, by email to [email protected], or our online page at http://robeson.ces.ncsu. edu /.
Good people from Robeson County, the time has come for those suffering from the kind of devastation and depression we know very well.
A Category Four hurricane named Laura came ashore thursday morning early thursday morning near the Texas-Louisiana border and began spinning northeast and cut off a trail of destruction in central Louisiana. Houses and businesses were destroyed. By Friday afternoon, thousands more were unforced and at least 11 others had died.
Does it look familiar? Be. Robeson County suffered from Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and Hurricane Florence in 2018. The only difference between what happened in our county and Louisiana is the numbers.
Now it’s time to do for them what so many other people have done for us after Matthew and Florence. Money and aid materials arrived in Robeson County after the hurricane. Dozens of people came here to help county citizens repair or rebuild their homes. Others came here just to help remove the debris.
Some of that came from remote corners of the United States.
Remember when the Kern County Law Enforcement Foundation in Bakersfield, California, delivered about $33,000 in November 2016? They drove to a warehouse on North Cedar Street in a semi-trailer laden with water, toiletries, snacks and more.
Can’t we afford so much kindness and effort? Can’t we participate in American culture of coming in combination with fellow citizens in need?
Can we count on someone outdoors in the United States to help other people in Louisiana? Doubtful. History shows us that little or no help comes from countries that are too willing to settle for American money and blood when they want help or savings or just to receive support.
Of course, it can be days or even weeks before parts of Louisiana are safe enough to get supplies. But that doesn’t mean that people, churches, and organizations in Robeson County can’t start talking about tactics to help and locate tactics to wear Laura’s victims.
For those who don’t need to wait for help, the American Red Cross has already put in place tactics to donate $10. To donate, go to redcross.org, call 800-RED-CROSS or send the word LAURA to 90999. The Red Cross says cash will allow them to prepare, respond and help others in the storm.
It would possibly be difficult for some people in Robesonia to think about sending cash or materials to others in some other state, a pandemic that has left so many other people here in a complicated situation economically or psychologically. But don’t forget when some of us were left with nothing after the hurricanes that devastated Robeson County. The people of Louisiana are now in the same situation. They want needs. So save some sympathy, a little time and some cash to buy non-perishable food or hygiene items or baby materials or water bottles, then look for someone to accept those items for later shipment.
If you think about giving only cash, be careful. It is inevitable that by tricking other people into creating fake Internet sites to solicit cash for hurricane relief in Louisiana and other spaces heavily affected by Laura. Don’t be fooled. It’s more productive to donate to the organizations you know.
Intensify Robesonians. It helps other people who suffer like us.

PEMBROKE – Local staff will participate in a task to expand a dessert plant that is expected to be completed in 2021.
Steven Robert Originals Desserts LLC will invest $4.5 million in an allocation to integrate a new production line, build a new warehouse and acquire new appliances for its facilities at 701 S. Jones St. in Pembroke.
The launch of the expanded operation is scheduled for the end of February 2021, said Rebecca O’Hara, the company’s president.
“Regional contractors will employ 50 other people in various roles in the era of structure between now and March,” O’Hara said Thursday.
The expansion will create a hundred jobs in the county and raise the total number of jobs in the dessert production business to 400 in the city of Pembroke, said Steve Fabos, the company’s general manager.
The expansion allocation will allow the dessert company to better satisfy the desires of a chain of giant U.S. restaurants, whose call has been released.
In honor of the company’s 25th anniversary, Steven Robert Originals Desserts plans to retain a worker on September 24 at the Pembroke site, O’Hara said.
Founded in 1995, SROriginals, LLC, is a privately held company owned by Charles Kosmont and Fabos. The company is headquartered in Denver, Colorado.
Wednesday my birthday. It’s August 26th if you need to take a note to stick it in the refrigerator as a long-term reference.
I do this so as not to brag, because I have nothing to do with it.
My mom gave birth to me, in the largest country despite what you heard recently and the greatest era of our lives, timing for me to be a teenager in the 1970s, when the most productive music of all time was about to play. on vinyl.
In 1975, when I was in my first year at UNC, they debuted the following albums: Bruce Springsteen’s “Born to Run”, Pink Floyd’s “Wish You Were Here”, Bob Dylan’s “Blood on the Tracks” and Led Zeppelin’s “Physical Grafitti”. These artists and albums remain a great component of the soundtrack of my life.
“Saturday Night Live”, with the original team of John Belushi, Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd, also debuted in 1975. I can’t tell you how many times I avoided reading to watch this show. In fact, I never had to avoid reading to see it.
At that time, an 18-year-old can legally enter a bar and ask for a Budweiser. For 50 cents. If it wasn’t for that, I’d have been a doctor. Probably some kind of surgeon.
So the timing is excellent. Thanks, Mom. And Dad.
Since August 26, 1957, all I’ve been able to do to accumulate birthdays is not die. Given the course of 2020, perhaps I give myself more credit for surviving 23011 days.
Over the years, I have noticed that many other people were born last August or early September. Google tells me that September 9 is the ultimate day to be born.
I’ve been thinking a lot about this, looking to see why so many other people are born in the eighth and ninth months of the year. I guess young kids love school football.
By making this post, I noticed that more than 2000 Facebook friends had not identified my big day, getting hundreds of comments and even more likes. Shamelessly, I know.
My favorite comment was that of Sarah Willets, a former journalist for The Robesonian. You probably don’t forget her. He made most of the paintings of our Hurricane Matthew policy in 2016, when I got the highest credit. Journalist Mike Gellatly was also in the room at the time. RIP Mike, he left too soon.
Sarah wanted her to have a birthday satisfied with this qualifier: “if it’s your birthday.”
I without delay understood why I hesitated. I guess it’s August 26, 2015, when I’m at my place of work and I scream my birthday, in an effort to see if I can shake a gift or two.
Sarah said, “Seriously, is it your birthday?”
I said, “Yes, why are you wondering that?”
Sarah: “Well, I’ve only been here five months and this is the third time you say it’s your birthday.”
He didn’t come here for me.
I think it was unrealistic to wait for other people not to forget a friend’s birthday. I have about 2500 friends on Facebook, adding about two hundred that I’ve met, so not forgetting all your birthdays is a very unlikely task, especially for a brain that is already full of dead information, some of which are unpacking.
I’m comfortable I don’t wait for anyone to forget my date of birth and I’ll settle for gifts all year round. It makes things less difficult for everyone.
PEMBROKE – A user described as a full library chief has been named Dean of Library Services at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke.
Jessica Collogan’s appointment was unanimously approved through the university’s board of directors.
Collogan brings more than 20 years of experience in corporate, academic, public and special libraries and learning resource centers at aCP. She was recently director of the Carl Swisher Library at the University of Jacksonville in Jacksonville, Florida.
“SP. Collogan will bring new, cutting-edge and exciting concepts to this position and is well suited to advance the university’s project in our service region,” said Zoe Locklear, Acting Rector.
“It includes existing trends and more productive practices in higher education and university libraries and has a transparent view for the long-term of library services,” Locklear added. “An integral component of this vision is to engage and educate students, either in the campus community, but also in the public side of the library. Mrs Collogan will be a strong advocate for library services.
Collogan, who made up his mind after a national search, said he was in a position to embark on this next phase of his career at the Mary Livermore Library. His first day is September 8.
During the interview process, Collogan was inspired by the diversity of the UNCP campus and its close ties to the community. Throughout her career, she has thrived in smaller personal colleges, where libraries offer supplies that satisfy not only the university’s educational desires, but also the community.
“I appreciate UNC Pembroke for the diversity and huge population of first-generation scholars like me. My parents came here to the United States from Chile in the 1960s and I am a first-generation student and I am very proud of my Chilean Mapuche ancestry. I can identify with a lot of academics here.
Collogan said she was excited about the opportunity to pursue her career at a larger state university, where there is expansion and change.
“I look forward to continue with the paintings of the Mary Livermore Library,” he said. “I plan to worry on campus and local network paintings because I’m very interested in the history, culture and long-term expansion of the university.”
Collogan earned a bachelor’s degree in foreign affairs and a master’s degree in literature and data science, either from the University of South Florida. Collogan has had a wide variety of paintings that delight in library types and the business world. She has held positions in business studies and studies as a sales researcher at PricewaterhouseCoopers, the world’s largest professional facility network painting.
But as much as he enjoyed the business world, he knew he was more passionate about working in libraries. She believes in the importance of the central role of the library in meeting the educational desires of academics and the university, while serving as a resource for the entire university community.
“During her visit to campus, Ms. Collogan’s enthusiasm and pastime were dazzling to everyone,” said UNCP Chancellor Robin Gary Cummings. “It’s the best thing for our university and our community. She fully understands the evolution of the library for learning of today’s generation, while appreciating the iconic position of the Mary Livermore Library.
Collogan discovered her vocation as a professional librarian in a university internship at Vital Voices Global Partnership, where she studied at the Library of Congress, the World Bank, the State Department and attended political meetings. Their studies aimed to encourage women’s participation in education, fitness care, politics, business and leadership.
“It was this joy that led me to start my career in library because I could see how studies and knowledge underscored the decisions made through executives,” Collogan said.
At her newest position at the University of Jacksonville, where she was also an assistant professor, Collogan oversaw all facets of library services, resources, and systems in student learning, college systems, and college teaching. In the past, Collogan has held various leadership positions at the ITT Technical Institute, St. Petersburg College, Eckerd College, Clearwater Public Library System and Pinellas Public Library Co-operative.
A graduate of the Leadership Institute for Academic Librarians program at Harvard Graduate School of Education, Collogan is also actively interested in her community. For more than 3 years, he has held a position appointed through the Florida Secretary of State as a member of the State Library Council, which works with the State Librarian and the Library and Information Services Division.
At UNCP, Collogan said he plans to leverage his collective skills, hobby and delight to build on a position that will allow the Livermore Library to satisfy the desires of academics and the network for generations to come.
“I plan to continue with the paintings and advance the most productive interests of academics and worry about networked paintings to win as I gather the wishes of faculty, library friends and networked paintings,” he said.
Collogan and her husband, Vince, have two children, Everett and Elliott.
LUMBERTON – A 60th resident of Robeson County died this week after contracting COVID-19, and the Robeson County Health Department reported on more than three hundred new cases.
The new death reported on Monday through the Ministry of Health. The death toll was 59 last week. On Friday, 3,466 positive cases of the new coronavirus were reported, according to the Ministry of Health. There were 341 reported cases from August 20 to Friday.
According to the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, there is no active outbreak of viruses at network housing facilities. Red Springs Living Assisted was removed from the department’s list this week.
The University of North Carolina announced that a group of viruses had been discovered on campus on Monday. The construction of the Cypress Hall apartment is known as assembly, the NCDHHS group definition of five or more cases with initial onset of disease or positive effects within a 14-day era that are likely to be similar to each other.
The university announced Friday that 75 academics, 3 workers and 3 subcontractors had active instances of COVID-19. On Wednesday, 61 schoolchildren and three workers were active. On 20 August, the active bodies included 53 academics and two UNCP workers.
More than 700 seconds were held on a driving occasion organized Wednesday through the county’s fitness department.
Department of Health Director Bill Smith said many public school systems in North Carolina use positive percentage rates to determine whether K-12 schools can return to learning in person, but that this rate can be misleading.
“But this is confusing because most of the negative effects are not shared locally, but at the state level, so the denominator is not known,” Smith said. “Other people are also given a positive check several times looking for a negative check so they can get back to work.
“An express population, like a criminal, where a third of its inmates test positive, distorts overall population figures. In general, driving checks carried out through the Ministry of Health and the Lumbee tribe had a positivity rate of around 4%, reflecting the population as a whole, control sites are located in spaces with rates sometimes higher than others.
Southeastern Regional Medical Center reported Friday that 14 patients were isolated after positive for COVID-19 and that 15 workers were quarantined.
This week, the NCDHHS reported an increase in the number of cases reported daily throughout the state, leading to a total of 162,491 reported cases of the pandemic, of which 2,652 resulted in death.
