Subject: Re: Danger at the Pittsboro Traffic Circle-what does yield mean

Sorry, Ace. You do not have to stop for a yield sign unless there is traffic approaching. Please read the following quote from the NC Driver’s Manual:

“The yield sign is triangular shaped with the point at the bottom. This sign is red and white with the word “YIELD” in large letters at the top. When you approach the yield sign, you must slow down and yield the right of way. Your need to stop depends on the traffic on the intersecting street. To avoid interfering with that traffic, you must stop and wait for it to pass.”

Subject: “drivers from Siler City”

To those of you who “generalized” and made it to sound like that everyone who is “slingshotting” at the traffic circle” is from Siler City – do you know for a fact the culprits are from Siler City?  Or, did  you mean to say “traffic traveling 64 East”.  I am glad to know that no one in Pittsboro has ever made such a move.  Being from Siler City, I just found it somewhat offensive.  It may not be what you meant, but that is how it appeared.

The Chatham YMCA will be offering “Wildcats After the Bell” at Horton Middle School beginning in August 2009.

This program will be offered Mon-Fri 2:45pm – 6:00pm.  The cost for the program will be $180.00/month for those that attend 4-5 days a week and $132.00 for those that attend 3 or less days a week.  Parents pay Sept – May.  Students attend Aug – June.  In regards to this summer, this age group can be accommodated at Perry Harrison and Moncure schools through the Chatham YMCA Camp Wannago camps.  The camps are theme based with lots of fun packed in each day.

Subject: most of the “info”

To anyone concerned: I subscribed to this chatlist to gain information about activities and news from around the area. So far there has been a bit of local info on painters, roofers, lost animals, found animals, etc.  But most of the “info” has contained angry bursts from uninformed people.
