Family Holds 54th Annual Celebration On. Thursday, Aug. 18 familSi members began arriving from air over to attend activities for Friday, Aug. 19, at the Holiday Inn North. The program consisted of member participation, dining, dancing and sweet reminisces of the past. On Saturday, Aug. 21, they headed to the Emerald Point Lake in High Point for the younger generation to have their day. Sunday, Aug. 21, all roads led to the Clifton Grove Bap tist - Church, in the Georgetown/Kemersville area, for a Reunion Church Service, with the annual membership meeting follow ing and the special highlight of the entire celebration, a picnic fashion dinner spread under a shelter located on the church grounds. The evening ended with family members return ing to Winston-Salem to the fabu lous but spacious home of the most gracious host and hostess, Clarence and Fannetta Gore. 1 The first recorded meeting, 3rd Sunday, August 1940, brought scr many members together that Sarah and Earl, realizing Sarah's home was too small to accommodate all, agreed to move the family reunion to the home of a nephew, Coy Trayhham Sr., who had ample space, since as he was a prominent businessman, in tobacco fanning as well as owner of a dairy farm. That movement incorporated the Hines and Traynham Family Reunion. ? ~ " After a two year span at the Traynham's residence, the Rev. Earl Hines and his members decided to move to the church as it was mostly family, so the church agreed to give up their church services for that one day in the year and the reunion pro gram was centered around the fam ily reunion completely as those of talent made the reunion program more entertainable. f Today the family members *are special guest at the Clifton Grove Baptist Church* holding an annual reunion meeting after service, before all head for the big fest under a shelter on the church grounds. It ; erected in the memory of the Rev. Hines's young daughter, Connie Mae Hines Seales. In order to spend more time together with family members when the reunion was started, the Rev. Hines. and his wife, Ida Robinson Hines, continued the celebrations on Monday at their home in Wallburgh. When the Rev. Hines departed, other family members would pro vide the Monday festivities such as the Rev. Hines' late nephew* Harl and Etta Hines, then the Rev. Hines' daughter, Carl and Jeannette Hines Eller, and a few recreation center in Winston-Salem. Today the Monday festivities still continue at the Waughtown Baptist Church Community- Room, as many other out-of-towns are in town for their own family reunion affair and the HTGL reunion, espe-. cially the Selfs, Brpoks.and Foys who are closely related (by mar riage) to the Hines. The same as many other who are members but do not bear the names of Hines, Grimes, Traynfiams or Lin d se y names. The Selfs are related from the maternal side of the Rev. Hines's family, as his mother-in-law was a Foy. Each year as the families come together younger as well as older members are able to receive more Earl Preston Raymond Hines and more information about their ancestors. For instance, in 1984 the family names Grimes was added due to the tale of the Grimes and Hines brothers during slavery, but separated when freed. One brother, went back to his former slave name. The other brother kept the name he was freed under. Since there were four brothers, the family is still unaware of the others- and the names, they went under maybe a third and fourth name. Research is still going on for this information. The Hines often wondered why the Rev. Hines always kept in touch with the Grimes, the family was surprised to learn what happened in those days and piuudto set the rfecord siraighl with the inclusion of the family name Grimes later in the year. Although the Lindsey family are direct descendants of the Hines' (the maternal side) their request was granted to add the name family Lindsey. v f ' v , WSSU Names New Resident Hall * The Winston-Salem State Uni-~ versity Board of Trustees voted Sept. 8 to name the new campus res idence hall for Haywood .L. Wilson Jr, the long-time vice chancellor for student affairs who died two years ago. In agreeing with a recommen dation by Chancellor Cleon F. Thompson Jr, trustees also named two conference rooms in the new building for two outstanding people. One room will be named after Louise Smith, an alumna and a for ? mer trustee board chairman, and another for graduate, Joseph H. Daniels Sr, a 31 -year campus., employee who held numerous posi tions during his tenure, including rnnrriinator of the unviti qiiy annual homecoming parade. The building and conference rooms will be dedicated Oct. 14 during the Founder's Day program that m;uks the beginning of Home coming u eekend. Chancellor Thompson says his recommendation to name the resi dence hall foTWilson was based on the recommendations he has received from the student congress of WSSU., from some alumni and university friends. Thompson said, "naming the conference rooms for Smith and Daniels was to recognize the signif icant contributions they have made, not just as students, but all of their professional lives to this institu tion.", V .1 Haywood Wilson, a 1963 grad uate of WSSU, was a native of Winston-Salem and a graduate of? Atkins High School. Wilson earned a masters in I educational administration from N.C. A&T State University and a dOcluiaie~TTT~edif(!:ation at Southern Illinois University. He was the vice - chancellor for student affairs from 1977 until 1992, at the time of his death. He had served as interim chancellor during 1984-85 between the administrations of H. Douglas Covington and Thompson. Before joining WSSU, Wilson had a sucT cessful teaching career in the j WS/Forsvth County school system. Louise Smith, now a commu nity volunteer, spent several years on the board of trustees before assuming the helm from 1984 to \ 1986. Smith is a retired teacher with the local school system, earned a degree in elementary education in 1946. She was chair of the univer sity's centennial celebration in 1992. Joseph Daniels Sr., who retired last year from WSSU because of ill ? health, continues to be involved with the university. Over the years, he has worked in student affairs as a recruiter and wifh residence life. The residence hall, whirh crowns the campus, is a landmark on U.S. Highway 52 for motorists entering and leaving the downtown area by that route. The new building, which opened in March, houses 400 men and women in suites and apart ments. The project cost approxi mately $9 million. A Business Loan at Last The demand for business - loans has recently increased. Banks have become more willing to provide loans to both start-ups and on-going businesses.* So what can you do to take advantage of this environment. First educate your banker* A banker that is unfamiliar with your business and industry is less likely to give you a favorable response. A good business plan is an excel lent way to tell your story to a banker. In this plan you can tell your banker what your company does or will do and how it does it or how it will do it A strongpre sentation of this is very important particularly for a start-up venture. Your business plan should include the following: a.) A summary of what the. business plan covers. b.) A brief history of your company, or the origination of the idea if the company is a start-up. c.) Resumes of the managers and other key employees. d.) A description of the prod ucts and services offered. ? e.) An outline of your com pany's marketing strategy. f ) A description of the bwi~ t ness's day-to-day operations. g.)The company's goals. h.) The amount of afegfer ? required 10 operate the business. ? , L) Financial projection. Another way to educate the banker is to have him or her to visit your business, if it currently exists. * ' A visit will allofr the banker to see your operation and products and services offered and to meet with other key employees. Lending policies of banks dif fer and you should consider this in MONEY WATCH By THEODORE R. DANIELS selecting the business* s bank. . Some banks are extremely conser vative while others are more ven turesome in the risks they take. In addition to differences in their / lending policies, banks also vary in length of loans, interest rates, types of security required and other features. Banks make loans to their best commercial customers at the prime rate. (Small-business loan rates usually are t to 2 per centage points above the prime rate.) \ , Keep in mind that a bank turn down a loan for these reasons: * Unwillingness on the part of the owners) to guarantee the loan penonilly. ? Bank* s lack of familiarity with the business and its owners, or with the industry in which the -business operates. ? Excessive business losses by the applicant ? Insufficient collateral. j * Inadequate preparation by the owners). ? Insufficient equity commit ment from the owners). * Past personal credit prob lems of the owner(s). * Poor regional or national economic conditions. There is no reason to resent die banker's questions. The money that banks lend belong to other people and it is the banker's duty to be careful with it. However, banker's judgment are subjective. Don't give up if the first bank you approach decides not to grant the loan. Another banker may see the picture differently. If you imivc ?**y questions or concern?, please wmtact Theod?^ R.
