Contributed Photo Hospice receives $12,500 donation ST12, a NC based nonprofit 501C3 or- ganization dedicated to helping those in need in Cleveland County, recently raised $12,500 for Hospice Cleveland County. The fundraisers included a poker run, bake sale, 50/50 drawing, silent auction, T- shirt sales, a barbecue lunch, and live music. “Almost everyone in our group has suf- fered a loss in their family and Hospice is al- ways there,” said the group’s president, CJ Sauer. “There is so much that Hospice does that people don’t realize, such as grief coun- seling for anyone in the community regard- less of whether the person was a Hospice patient or not,” Sauer said. Although the majority of ST12 is made up of motorcycle riders and enthusiasts, membership is open to all and made up of people from all walks of life and age groups. Currently, the 30 member group’s main focus is Hospice Cleveland County and Shriner's Children’s Hospital, but they are open to anyone if a need in the community arises. “We would like to thank ST12 and every- one who helped make this wonderful event possible,” said Hospice Director of Market- ing & Public Relations, Pam Isaacs. “It is with the support of groups like ST12, that we are able to provide high quality skilled compassionate care and support for individ- uals with a life-limiting illness, their fami- lies, and the community, regardless of their ability to pay.” For more information about Hospice Cleveland County, call 704-487-4677 or visit their website at www.hospicecares.cc. Moss to sign books at KM Historical Museum Kings Mountain Historical Museum will present Southern Folk Medicine, 1750-1820, a Lecture & Book Signing by Kay K. Moss, on Wednesday, July 9 at 5:30 p.m. How did Southerners manage illness and injury prior to the Civil War? To answer that question, Kay Moss, an author, historian, and founder of the Eigh- teenth-century Backcountry Lifeways Stud- ies Program at the Schiele Museum in Gastonia, North Carolina, will discuss her book, Southern Folk Medicine, 1750-1820. Moss will display a backcountry medical kit, discuss medicinal plants and their tradi- tional uses, and describe Southern medical practices and beliefs during a time period when people relied more heavily on home remedies than treatment by the region’s few professional physicians. Moss will be available after her lecture to sign some of her titles that will be available in the Museum’s Gift Shop, including Southern Folk Medicine, 1750-1820 & Jour- ney to the Piedmont Past: Source Book.

Military and Red Cross med- ical history, as well as iconic Kings Moun- tain providers like Griffin Drug Center, Kings Mountain Hospital, and Baker Dental Care are represented.
