Hi everyone reading this! I've tried to save previous chatlists on specific things I might need in the future, but here I am in need of a Handyman/Carpenter for a couple of odd jobs and I contacted one and I heard back from him but he didn't get back about setting up an appointment. Can anyone refer me to one? I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

Hawk Hill Farm's MANURE FEST 2007 is scheduled for next Saturday, March 17 , starting at 8:00 am. Jeff Scott of Jeff Scott Grading Co. has graciously agreed again this year to donate his services to scoop up a serving of this year's accumulation into your pick-up or trailer. Come early because Jeff will be done scooping by 11:00 or when the manure is gone. Again this year, donations to Chatham Animal Rescue & Education, Inc. will be gratefully accepted. Your donation will go directly to CARE to support its mission to provide foster care for animals until they can be adopted into permanent homes.
If you are new to MANURE FEST, you may email Holly at holly.williams.stafford.at.duke.edu for directions to Hawk Hill Farm.
-------------------- 5 -------------------- Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2007 10:00:00 -0400 From: South Eastern Karate News <news.at.southeasternkarate.com> Subject: 25th Anniversary Set For Karate School
SILER CITY - When Peggy Petty Jolly opened South Eastern Karate a quarter-century ago, few people gave the fledgling operation any real chance of surviving. There were as many reasons tossed around as there were critics.
Karate was relatively new in the area, some claimed, and locals wouldn't understand what it was all about. The school would struggle in a small town, others said, because the number of potential students was too limited. Many doubted whether a woman could succeed anywhere as head instructor.
There are no doubters any more. South Eastern Karate has not only survived, but thrived. It has since expanded to four schools - in Siler City, Liberty, Pittsboro and Sanford - and plans to celebrate its silver anniversary on May 5 with an afternoon open house for junior students and the community, followed by an evening reunion for actively training adult students and invited guests.
"Looking back, I guess there were a lot of obstacles, but we never thought about them too much at the time," says Master Instructor Jolly, who now holds a seventh-degree black belt and is widely recognized as one of the more accomplished instructors in the region.
"I just relied on the teaching from Master Yu, my own instructor, and passed that knowledge down to students in this area," she says. "The community responded and has supported the school from the very beginning. I think it's largely due to what I learned from Master Yu and the positive example our students have set in the community."
Anniversary festivities begin at 3 p.m. with a 90-minute open house featuring a magic show by Gary Blankenship, who is among the scores of black belts trained by Master Jolly at South Eastern Karate. Refreshments will be served.
The celebration continues at 6 p.m. with the reunion welcoming International Grandmaster Young Taek Yu of Young Yu Tae Kwon Do in Greensboro, who helped establish South Eastern Karate in 1982, originally as a branch of his own school.
A native of Seoul, South Korea, Grandmaster Yu came to the United States in 1972 to teach the Moo Duk Kwan style of Tae Kwon Do, having served previously as instructor at Hang Yang University and the Tae Kwon Do Main School, both in Seoul.
He earned the title of Korean Welterweight Champion in 1971 and served as a delegate from the U.S. Tae Kwon Do Union to the 1988 Summer Olympic Games in Korea, where the art was unveiled, originally as a demonstration sport.
Both events will be held at the flagship school in Siler City.
Reunion news is available on the school Web site at southeasternkarate.com/reunion.htm. South Eastern Karate black belts who have not received an invitation by mail are asked to contact reunion organizers at 919-542-5298 or reunion.at.southeasternkarate.com.
South Eastern Karate, which celebrates its 25th anniversary in May, teaches Korean martial arts to adults and children, men and women, at schools in Siler City, Pittsboro, Liberty and Sanford. Students range from 5-year-old white belts, or beginners, to new students and high-ranking black belts of retirement age. The schools' instruction in self-defense also emphasizes confidence, physical fitness and self-discipline.

Greetings Chatlisters:
The North Carolina Zoological Society would like to recruit five to twenty parents of Kindergarten-8th Grade children in Chatham County to participate in an education-related focus group. Members of the group will provide feedback regarding a new classroom resource called ".at.theZoo," which is being developed in a partnership between the Zoo and the Raleigh News & Observer.
The focus group will take about two hours, and will be scheduled on a weekend morning at the Zoo, which is located in Asheboro. It will be very informal and friendly. Parents will gather around a table or two and simply discuss their reactions, both positive and negative, regarding the quality of some learning materials the Zoo Society will share with them.
In exchange for their participation, parents (and their immediate families) will receive a free one-day entry pass to the Zoo, which can be used that day following completion of the focus group.
If you would like to participate, or if you have questions, please contact Mark MacAllister offline at:
markmacallister.at.mac.com
Thanks very much.
