Bill Young, GCCSA director of tournament activities, announced that the first result of the partner- ship will be a regional tournament at Gardner-Webb November 10-12 with teams competing from across Western North Carolina. The event, which is expected to draw between 1,500 and 2,500 people, will offi- cially be named the Gardner-Webb University Regional Soccer Tournament. For some time, Gardner-Webb's long-range athletic goals have in- cluded plans of improving its soc- cer facilities. When the university's administration, Bulldog Club and Board of Advisors learned of the GCCSA's need for a home, all par- ties felt the timing was perfect for the new arrangement, as the GCC- SA could benefit from the im- provements made to the GWU playing facilities while centralizing all of its soccer activities. The arrangement means the GCCSA's 700 young people, from preschool to high school ages, will play together at one location on Saturday for a minimum of 14 weeks out of the year while league games are scheduled. In addition to league games, the university's fa- cilities will be used for all tourna- ments and special camps coordi- nated by the GCCSA. GCCSA President Rod Rockwell formally accepted Gardner-Webb's invitation from university President Dr. Chris White at a news conference Thursday on the G-W campus. "You have Gardner-Webb FREE Pregnancy Test Abortion/Adoption Information 487-4357 (HELP) University offering what will be the best soccer facility in the west- ern portion of North Carolina," Rockwell said. "That is a gift most soccer families will never get the opportunity to enjoy." Dr. White explained that devel- oping the premiere soccer complex in the region has now become a part of the university. "It is a dream we will actively pursue from this day forth," he said. "The excite- ment is there, for the university and the soccer association. It is a great occasion, a great day, as our two organizations show what can be ac- complished together for our young people.” Roger Holland, vice president and board member of the GCCSA as well as a member of the Gardner-Webb Board of Advisors, said that the agreement is a "win- win" situation for Gardner-Webb and the association. On behalf of the GCCSA, he credited Dr. White and Gardner-Webb for having a progressive vision for the universi- ty and the county. "The soccer players, their friends and families will immediately real- ize the benefits of Gardner-Webb's outstanding facilities,” Holland ex- plained. "And the university will become a focal point of activity for hundreds of young people several times a year. This partnership is definitely advantageous to the soc- cer community, the community at large and the region." Representatives from the Cleveland County Chamber of Commerce and = Economic Development Commission, Boiling Springs Town Council and Cleveland County Commissioners joined hundreds of GCCSA mem:- bers who were present for the an- nouncement.

It’s one thing to have a bank- er that answers your questions. It’s quite another to have one that answers your needs. Mike Hamby found that out when he came to BB&T in 1986 looking for a quick answer to a rather complicated loan request. Mike Hamby's hobby is restoring this 1929 Lrocery wagon. While a number of banks were in- terested in writing the loan, only the folks at BB&T were interested enough to come in the day after Christmas to make it happen. As for Mike Hamby's feel- ings about BB&T today, nine years later? “There's a loyalty there that you cannot buy. You can't steal me away as a customer from BB&T."
