In November, the Arts Council of Carteret County will present a photography exhibit, “A Country, A People: Afghanistan Through the Eyes of the Men and Women of the U.S. Military.”

The show will be presented at the Morehead Plaza, 2900 Arendell St., Morehead City, in the commercial unit between Tractor Supply Store and Snap Fitness. The gallery will be open to the public at no charge.

The gallery will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday-Sunday, Nov. 4-6, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday-Sunday, Nov. 13-17 and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Nov.17-20.

The gallery will be closed on Mondays,

Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Scheduled to open with a free reception

from 5-7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 4, this exhib-it will present 115 photographs created by eight men and women photographers while serving the United States military during tours of duty in Afghanistan.

Many of the photographs will be accom-panied by narrative cards authored by the photographers.

Photographs in this exhibit feature the landscape and people of Afghanistan and members of the U.S. and Afghan militaries. The photos are not graphic in nature. The exhibit will be appropriate for audiences of all ages.

“A Country, A People” was curated by Sarah Merritt, executive director of the Arts Council of Wayne County in Goldsboro, and wife of a U.S. Air Force master sergeant.

Amazed and inspired by the photo-graphs her husband and his fellow ser-vice men and women brought back from their recent deployments in Afghanistan, Ms. Merritt received grants through the N.C. Arts Council and the N.C. Humanities Council in support of a year-long effort to create this show.

The exhibit has recently been on travel-ling display in Goldsboro and Cary.

“The focus of the exhibition was not so much on the ‘at war’ aspect – the

blood, the death, the destruction. The real focus was on the human side of it – the day to day experience and the personal experience with the Afghan people and the landscape,” Ms. Merritt said. “A lot of Americans imagine Afghanistan as a dark and drab country, and we were surprised to see how bright and bold the people were.”

More information regarding the project and sample photographs can be viewed at the N.C. Humanities Council’s website: http://nchumanities.org/galleries/country-people.

For more information, visit www.artscouncilcarteret.org or call 252-726-9156.

BY JAKE COYLE

ASSOCIATED PRESSMick Jackson’s “Denial”

brings all the decorous polish of a British courtroom drama to the pungent libel case of a Holocaust denier.

Based on Deborah Lipstadt’s book History on Trial: My Day in Court with a Holocaust Denier, the film depicts when the unapologetically anti-Semitic historian David Irving brought a libel suit against Ms. Lipstadt for calling him a Holocaust denier in one of her books.

Because of the nature of libel cases in the United Kingdom (where Mr. Irving filed the suit), the burden of proof is on the defender, not the plaintiff. Hovering constantly through-out the trial – which ran eight

weeks – is the question: Is it worthwhile to expend so much energy on such a loathsome liar?

It’s a salient question with obvious relevance to a time where willful disregard for the truth increasingly runs ram-pant in national politics and social media streams, alike. Should trolls be taken to task or ignored?

“Denial” argues forcefully and convincingly for the vital neces-sity of confronting the perpetu-ation of dangerous falsehoods. It rises impressively to the wise and perhaps unpopular judg-ment that “not all opinions are equal.” This is an honorable cause if not a particularly dra-matic movie.

Just as the legal team behind

Ms. Lipstadt’s case brought a full array of firepower to the proceedings, so has Mr. Jackson in his film. The cast is littered with an impervious collection of British talent, in front of and behind the camera.

Rachel Weisz stars as the Queens-born Ms. Lipstadt. Her star-studded attorneys are bar-rister Richard Rampton (played by Tom Wilkinson) and solicitor Anthony Julius (Andrew Scott), famed for securing Princess Diana’s divorce. Mr. Irving is played with snarling perfection by Timothy Spall. And the script is by playwright David Hare (“The Reader,” “The Hours”).

Mr. Irving sets things in motion when he turns up a speaking engagement of Ms. Lipstadt’s to heckle her from the

audience. When he brings the lawsuit against her publisher, Penguin Books, the assembled legal team begins hashing out a strategy of how to argue history in a courtroom, how to prove the Holocaust.

What’s partly on trial, though, is the notoriously byzantine British court system, itself. “Dickensian not Kafkaesque” is what Ms. Lipstadt says she’s hop-ing for in her passage through its elaborate procedures.

Often, Ms. Lipstadt’s expe-rience is a frustrating one as she – more emotional than her lawyers – clashes with the stringently logical Mr. Rampton. They together visit Auschwitz where he reacts bitterly to lack of an extensive forensics record. Despite Ms. Lipstadt’s protests,

the attorneys want neither her nor Holocaust survivors to take the stand to subject themselves to Mr. Irving’s questions. (Mr. Irving represented himself in the trial.)

These strategic debates aren’t much to hang a movie on, but the case doesn’t supply much else in terms of suspense. “Denial” is carried less by the normal theat-rics of courtroom dramas than a staunch sense of duty to protect the truth. It’s an argument for the patient, methodical disman-tling of fools.

“Denial,” a Bleecker Street release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for “mild action and some thematic elements.” Running time: 110 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

Review: A Holocaust denier is brought to justice in ‘Denial’

Carving Tips� Prior to carving, read through all of the directions.� Cuts are easiest when the watermelon is at room temperature. Once the handiwork is complete, chill the carving and contents before serving.� After drawing a design on the rind, insert toothpicks in key places to guide the cuts.� A sharp knife with a pointed tip makes the easiest, cleanest cuts. � Remove excess flesh in large pieces, when possible, to allow for easier melon ball or cube creation.� Use round toothpicks or skewers to attach pieces to a design as flat toothpicks are not strong enough to bear the weight or stand up to the thickness of the rind.

MummySupplies and Tools:

� Oval or round seedless watermelon.� Cutting board.� Kitchen knife.� Small bowl.� Dry erase marker.� Paring knife.� Melon baller, fluted or regular.� Scoop.� Assorted peelers.� Cheesecloth.� Straight pin.� Battery-operated candle or light.� Candy eyeballs or blueberries.

Wash watermelon under cool running water and pat dry.

On cutting board, place watermelon on its side and use kitchen knife to cut off ¼-inch to ½-inch from bottom (end opposite stem), being careful not to cut too deep into white part of rind.

Cut ½-inch to ¾-inch from stem end to create opening large enough to fit small bowl.

Using dry erase marker, draw eyes, nose and mouth, along with wavy slits around carving to let more light flow through. Use paring knife to cut out design, being sure to cut through to red fruit.

Use fluted or regular melon baller to hollow out inside of watermelon. Use scoop to remove excess water-melon.

Peel green rind off outside of watermelon. (Tip: Different peelers work well for different parts of the watermelon, depending on how flat or round the melon is.)

Wrap thin strips of cheesecloth around mummy carv-ing and secure with straight pin, if needed.

Put battery-operated candle or light into carving. Fit small bowl into top of carving and trim away excess rind to make bowl fit securely. Fill bowl with melon balls and attach candy or blueberries to make eyes.

From easy art to a sweet treat

Find more recipes, carving patterns and inspiration at watermelon.org.

Turn tradition on its head:Spooky, silly or symbolic, carved

pumpkins are an essential ingredient to any Halloween celebration. This year, scare up some special fun for a party with a wicked watermelon carv-ing, instead – but don’t stop there.

After crafting a watermelon into an artful mummy, take advantage of the healthy, immune-system support-ing qualities of the lycopene leader among fresh produce. At 92 percent water, as well as an excellent source of vitamins A and C, watermelon is a hydrating post-art snack.

Carving a creative design into a watermelon is a simple way to kick off the festivities and requires only a handful of common tools. Add a twin-

kling candle to make a fantastically frightful centerpiece. Or fill it with a fresh fruit salad or salsas for a more functional, practical approach.

Even if one is planning on a hol-lowed-out carving, keep the sweet juicy fruit and make it a healthy addi-tion to a Halloween party menu with a recipe that puts to use all the carving leftovers.

To take advantage of all a water-melon has to offer – outside of the fun carving – try Frosted, Frozen Watermelon Balls or Kids Watermelon Pizza Supreme. These fun, simple reci-pes make it easy to incorporate a healthy snack after all the hard work of carving up a Halloween master-piece.

FROSTED, FROZEN WATERMELON BALLS

Servings: 35-401 small watermelon1 package (3 ounces) watermelon or other red flavor gelatin dessert Using melon baller, scoop out 35-40 small watermelon

balls. Place on paper towels and set aside.Pour gelatin into shallow bowl. One-by-one, gently drop

watermelon balls into bowl, roll around, take out and place on plate covered with paper towel. Repeat until all gelatin is used.

Place plate of frosted watermelon balls in freezer. Allow at least 2 hours to make sure they are completely frozen. Remove from freezer and let sit a few minutes before eat-ing.

Note: To serve with toothpicks, place toothpicks in before freezing to aid in serving.

KIDS WATERMELON PIZZA SUPREMEServings: 61 watermelon slice (8-10 inches around and 1-inch thick), drained 1 cup strawberry preserves½ cup white chocolate chips½ cup raisins½ cup chopped walnuts1 cup sweetened shredded coconutsPlace watermelon slice on serving platter and cut

into 6 wedges, leaving in shape of pizza.Spread preserves over watermelon and sprinkle

chocolate chips, raisins, walnuts and coconut.

“They’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and spooky. They’re all together ookie, the Addams Family.” That was the theme song for the original Addams Family, and Carteret Community Theatre will resur-rect this famous family in its latest production.

The show is at 7:30 p.m. Friday-Saturday, Oct. 28-29, and 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 30, as well as 7:30 p.m. Friday-Saturday, Nov. 4-6, and 2 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 7.

In this show the audience will not only get reacquaint-ed with Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, Pugsley, Grandma and Uncle Fester, but they also get to meet their deceased ancestors. And, if that wasn’t enough, the audience will have the chance to sit in and watch as this wonderfully dark family meets their future in-laws, the Bieneke family.

With Alice Bieneke (played by Michelle Johnson) now speaking in rhymes and her husband Mal (played by Tim Price) uncomfortably watching the questionable butler Lurch (played by Jamison Paylor) admiring her from the moment they arrive, the audience real-izes that normal, as Morticia reminds them, is all in perspec-tive because “what is normal for the spider is a calamity for the fly.”

This show picks up with Wednesday Addams (played by Maddie Leary) at 18 years old. She is still the same princess of darkness who hunts freely and tortures her brother religiously, but now she is in love with a normal boy. This young man has captured her heart and now they want their families to meet.

This show brings to light the age-old questions: “Can any-one really change?” and “What is normal?”

The cast will guide the audience through the per-ils of getting the rest of the Addams Family on board with Wednesday’s relationship and show the future in-laws that the Addams Family is normal, too. But they aren’t. They still have moats with alliga-tors, monsters under the bed and things that go bump in the night running around their house, and they love it.

The cast of 22 people has embraced its darkness and is becoming a great depiction of the Addams Family and their deceased ancestors.

Uncle Fester (played by Tony Maynard) will guide the audi-ence through this perilous evening with the family as it attempts to be “normal” for the sake of dear Wednesday.

Gomez and Morticia (played by Clayton Rusich and Jenn Wiggs) are wonderfully enter-

taining as they try to maintain a truthful marriage while handling Wednesday’s new love life.

Pugsley (played by Nathan Thomas) mourns the impend-ing loss of his daily tortures since his sister has moved on to her new love Lucas Bieneke (played by Gabe Dorsett).

With a bottle of Acromonium from Grandma’s (played by Mandy Griggs) stash, Pugsley plans to try and get rid of Lucas for good.

And watching Wednesday navigate her identity crisis will have the audience laughing as they watch her find someone new she wants to torture. And all of this before dinner.

The band of ancestors will help the audience see the importance of family and how, “no matter, living or dead, fam-ily is always family.”

Director Mylissa Maynard is proud of this cast and their hard work and dedication to the show.

“It is a pleasure to work with such delightfully dark people who have embraced their roles so happily and completely,” Ms. Maynard said. “The cast and crew have worked dili-gently to bring you into the Addams’ world from the min-ute you step into the theater. They are all looking forward to starting Halloween a few days earlier, because as we all know,

The Addams Family comes to life at community theatre

it is always Halloween in the

Addams home.”

There will be a costume con-

test for adults and children on

Halloween weekend, so come

in a costume and be ready to

“laugh yourself to death.”

ticket prices, call the theatre at

NEWS-TIMESCarteret Community College’s

photography program will host New Mexico photographer Wes Naman for a free lecture.

Mr. Naman is currently touring the state discussing his work with stops at the N.C. Museum of Art in Raleigh and Randolph College in Asheboro, along with the com-munity college.

At 6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 2, at Joslyn Hall, Mr. Naman will give a lecture on his work, his life as a photographer and how photogra-phy has changed over the years.

Mr. Naman’s claim to fame is his “Invisible Tape Series,” which became an internet sensation in 2012. In this series, Mr. Naman puts clear tape on his model’s faces to distort their features. But this series is just the tip of his pho-tographic iceberg.

“I would describe myself as a commercial art photographer,” Mr. Naman said. “I do my personal work just for fun just to make it. I would say I have a well-rounded palate to not only shoot the weird, fun stuff that I like to, but I can also shoot the president or CEO of a bank. I can do that, too.”

According to Mr. Naman, his “grotesque” work was brought on from an early age.

“I always had a creative side to me. I found that I could create a narrative through photography,” he said. “I am influenced by things I grew up reading. MAD Magazine, caricatures … Tim Burton kind of stuff. I like creepy, but not scare-you-out-of-your-pants creepy.”

His influences show in many of his personal series. Mr. Naman’s personal photography includes the galleries, “Smoke,” “Rubber Band” “Creepy Halloween” and “Dark” to name a few.

“When most people see my work they know that I took the picture,” he said. “I’m not trying to take myself too seriously as an artist or a photographer. That’s not me at all. I like to put myself out there and be honest instead of pretending to be something I’m not.”

Mr. Naman’s interest in pho-tography sparked in the winter of 1997 when he worked for a ski lodge taking photographs of the patrons on the ski lift.

He went to Elon University and graduated with a double major in English and philosophy. Spending

Photographer to talk about work during free lecture at community college

time writing for magazines, news-

papers and freelance, Mr. Naman

soon realized that he was more

interested in creative writing than

journalism.

He went to Randolph Community College and honed his photography skills.

“RCC really taught me the foun-dation of photography and this place is truly a diamond in the rough,” Mr. Naman said. “Instead of concentrating on the art his-tory of photography, I learned the sheer fundamental scientific tech-niques of photography and I have been able to apply my creative side to that … basically a melding of both sides of the brain … I owe a lot of where I am to the teachers of RCC who put up with me and also gave me the tools to make the images | am able to produce,” he continued.

Though his work has become an internet sensation, Mr. Naman is always on the lookout for the next creative idea.

His current project is the “Lonely Man” and “Lonely

Woman” series. “It’s complicated in the sense

of lighting,” he said about the project. “Not serious, but more cinematic.”

When asked what advice he would give to aspiring photogra-phers, Mr. Naman said he always tells people to constantly be think-ing about the project.

“Shoot constantly. If you are not shooting, think about it,” he said. “I have notepads all over the house full of ideas. Some are good and some are bad.”

The Invisible Tape Series started as an idea in his notepad.

“Never throw out any notes,” Mr. Naman said. “You might stum-ble across something that might be a gold mine or something new and exciting for people to see.”

For more information or to see Mr. Naman’s work, visit www.wesnamanphotography.com.

“Lonely Woman Amy” is a photograph in Wes Naman’s new series “Lonely Woman.” Mr. Naman will talk

about his photography at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 2, at Carteret Community College. (Wes Naman photo)

In what promises to be one of the biggest Alive at Five con-certs of the year, Jim Quick and the Coastline Band takes center stage on Thursday, Oct. 27.

The concert is from 5-8 p.m. at Jaycee Park, 807 Shepard St., in downtown Morehead City. This encore concert will wrap up this year’s Alive at Five sea-son.

Mr. Quick, with his south-ern charm, sense of humor and quick wit, originally played the Carolina beach bars with a group of friends, the Coastline Band.

He quickly moved to the fore-front and naturally transformed into Jim Quick and the Coastline Band.

Known for his all-out per-formances and deliberate, off-the-cuff wisecracks, Mr. Quick has been a gracious recipient of the Carolina Music Awards “Entertainer of the Year Award” nine times.

The Coastline Band consists of Albert Rogers on bass and vocals; Casey Meyer on guitar and vocals; Camron Dudley on drums and percussion; and Glen Tippet on keyboards, saxophone and vocals.

All Alive at Five concerts are free and family friendly. Lawn chairs and blankets are encour-aged, but coolers and outside beverages are not allowed. Beverages will be available for purchase.

The concerts are hosted by the Downtown Morehead City Revitalization Association.

The DMCRA is a nonprofit organization dedicated to restoring Morehead City to a vibrant economic, cultural, his-toric, social and recreational center.

In conjunction with the town of Morehead City, the DMCRA stages the Morehead City Fourth of July fireworks pro-gram, as well as the Christmas parade and the Crystal Coast Boat Show.

For more information about Alive at Five or any other activi-ties, call 252-808-0440 or go to www.downtownmoreheadcity.com.

The Otway Burns Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, will host a Holiday Bazaar from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29.

The event will be held at the Peer Recovery Center of Carteret County in Morehead City. Door prizes will be awarded every hour throughout the day.

The bazaar will feature select local crafters and artisans offer-ing the most sought-after gifts and décor for the holidays.

The Chapter Daughters will also be selling other items regu-larly available through the Red, White & Blue Shop, which is a traveling vendor shop that the DAR uses to raise funds. Items will include recycled blue jean Tic-Tac-Toe boards and aprons and hand-knitted boot toppers and hats, all popular items at the shop.

The Peer Recovery Center has ample parking, as well as large, open rooms and a kitchen where light lunch items will be sold, including pulled pork sandwich-es, hot dogs, chips, beverages and baked goods.

The Holiday Bazaar will act as a fundraiser that supports the chapter’s three focus mis-sions: Preserving American his-tory, securing America’s future through better education and promoting patriotism.

The Otway Burns Daughters are committed to supporting

patriotism by honoring veterans, celebrating active-duty military personnel and their families and encouraging future military members.

Currently, the chapter mem-bers are making arrangements for the Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall, open Thursday-Tuesday, May 25-30, 2017. The memorial will be at Glad Tidings Church in Morehead City.

The chapter has also increased the monetary scholarships for its essay contests during the 2016-17 school year.

The chapter will be sponsor-ing a DAR Good Citizen award and scholarship contest, as well as the American History Essay and Christopher Columbus Essay contests.

For the third year, the chapter placed displays in the Carteret County and Swansboro public libraries and schools recognizing and celebrating the United States Constitution for Constitution Week, which is Sept. 17-23.

The Daughters of the American Revolution is a nonprofit, non-political volunteer women’s ser-vice organization founded in Oct. 11, 1890, and incorporated in 1896 by an Act of Congress.

Mary B. Safrit, daughter of Leonard and Sarah Jo Safrit of Beaufort, will perform a spe-cial recital at St. Francis by the Sea Sunday, Oct. 30.

The program, entitled An Evening of Opera and Sacred Music, with Ms. Safrit, soprano, and Linda Laughton on piano, will start at 5:30 p.m.

This performance will feature an evening of arias and sacred music. Admission is free, but donations are accepted. Refreshments will be served afterward.

Ms. Safrit studied music at Elon University, then earned her mas-ter’s of music in vocal performance from UNC-Greensboro, where she studied with Dr. Donald Hartmann. She will continue to study voice privately with Lori McCann, the chair of the Vocal Performance Department at Montclair State University in New Jersey.

NEWS-TIMESKite lovers of all ages can

join in a weekend of fun dur-ing the 29th annual Kite Fest.

The free event is from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29, and Sunday, Oct. 30, at the Sands Villa Resort in Atlantic Beach. There will be a night fly at 6 p.m. Saturday.

This year, the festival will get back to basics, said Don Dixon with Kites Unlimited, the festival’s host.

“We are going to refocus on you, and we are going to let you fly kites,” Mr. Dixon said.

The event is completely focused on family entertain-ment.

“We are going to have about 30 or 40 different things to do depending on the wind,” Mr. Dixon said.

There will be a vintage kite demonstration with facts and history about each kite given.

People can bring their own music and perform a kite rou-tine and there will even be a chance for kite games, like Kite Limbo.

There will also be plenty of activities for children.

There are many activities planned for young children to

enjoy including kite building, bowl races and candy drops.

During the bowl races, chil-dren will pull a large, circular fabric bowl in a race against the wind.

In the candy drop, an air-borne kite will hold a bag of candy.

Children will have the opportunity to pull the ripcord and enjoy the candy that falls from the sky.

As well as kite activities, several well-known kite art-ists will attend the event to talk about kites, including Cath and Shook Elliot from Corolla, Jim Christanson from Connecticut and Randy Tom from San Diego, Calif.

The event started as a way for Kites Unlimited to say “thank you” to its custom-ers, but, over the years, it has developed into a large partici-pation and spectator event.

Mr. Dixon said that the event would not be possible without the hard work of the volunteers.

“We rely on volunteers. The people who come and help and set up the field and tear it down in the evening. If we didn’t have all those volun-teers this thing couldn’t hap-pen,” Mr. Dixon said.

Kite Fest to fly into Atlantic Beach Oct. 29-30

Those who plan on attend-

ing the festival should plan to

pack a lunch, as vendors will

not be on site, and attendees

should also be prepared to

have a good time.

“We have fun at it, and we

want everyone to have a good

time at it,” Mr. Dixon said.

For more information,

call 252-247-7011 or email

The U.S. Power Squadrons will present the boating edu-cation class America’s Boating Course at 6 p.m. Friday, Nov. 4, and 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 5. The class was rescheduled due to Hurricane Matthew.

The class will be held at Carteret Health Care’s Meeting Room A. Lunch will be provided for free.

The N.C. Boater Safety Education Course legislation requires everyone born after Jan. 1, 1988, to complete a boat-ing safety course.

The course is approved by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators and meets U.S. boating education standards in all states.

This two-day boating course, presented by the Fort Macon Squadron, will include topics such as purchasing the right ves-sel for a boater’s needs, safety afloat, the U.S. Coast Guard and North Carolina requirements, navigational aids and how to use those to boat safely, required safety equipment, the use of life jackets, flares and other safety devices, on-the-water skills and many other topics germane to safe and fun time on the water.

There are two ways to partici-pate and receive a boater edu-cation completion certification card for insurance purposes or for a boater operation card if 26 years of age or under.� Visit www.FMSPS.org, select “Boater Education” and pre-pay the $25 registration fee there for the America’s Boating Course classroom instruction. Students may purchase the stu-dent manual for self-study by contacting Ken Link at 252-726-0630 or at [email protected]. � The other option is to go to the USPS website and take the online course. Visit www.usps.org/ and select “Boating Courses and Seminars” and then select the last entry on the left, “Find an Online Boating Course” to register for this course. Select “Free Preview,” then “Enroll Now.” Students can then receive the North Carolina rules and regulations and sit for the exam-ination on Nov. 5 at Carteret Health Care for $10 with the other students.

Here’s How It Works:

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken

down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers

1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each

number can appear only once in each row, column and

box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers

will appear by using the numeric clues already provided

in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it

gets to solve the puzzle!

PREVIOUS PUZZLE ANSWERS

Editor’s Note:

Sudoku puzzles and answers are published in the

next edition this week.

Promise Land HomecomingPromise Land native Tolsie Willis Lewis, left, looks back in time at family memories with her

granddaughter Delphia Lewis during the annual Promise Land Festival last year in Morehead City.

This year, the Promise Land will be celebrated with a homecoming celebration. The celebration is

at 10 a.m. Saturday at the train depot and will feature a devotional; a bus tour of the Promise Land;

music and singing; videos; displays; family histories and photographs; storytelling; and lunch. The

community is welcome to attend this event. (Dylan Ray photo)

The New Bern Historical Society is preparing its 26th annual Ghostwalk, “Whispers from the Past.”

Hauntings start from 6:30-9:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 27. Expect ghost sightings at the cemetery and entertainment at theatres and the Attmore Oliver House. An additional 14 ghost sites are open from 5:30-9:30 p.m. Friday-Saturday, Oct. 28-29.

Each Ghostwalk brings a whole new batch of characters from New Bern’s colorful and varied past to tell ghostwalk participants their stories right in the very places they might have been seen in life.

So as night falls in New Bern’s historic district, Thursday-Saturday, Oct. 27-29, be on the lookout for ghosts that want to whisper their secrets. This year, there will be 18 different ghost haunts in historic houses, churches and businesses and in Cedar Grove Cemetery. � Meet Dr. Lula Disosway, a doc-tor and surgeon whose medical missionary work took her north of the Arctic Circle, to the far reaches of China, and back to New Bern. � See Congressman George H. White, African-American attor-ney and prosecutor who served in Congress from 1897-1901, the last black Congressman of the Jim Crow era. � Hear Sgt. William Ennever, the Union soldier killed at Bachelor’s Creek and mysteriously buried in the Ellis Family vault at Cedar Grove Cemetery.

These are just a few of the many spirits that will be about during Ghostwalk.

Candlelit Cedar Grove Cemetery will provide plenty of eerie enter-tainment. If participants dare pass under the weeping gates, they will meet the cemetery’s famous grave diggers who will try to con-vince them to stay… forever.

If they get past the gravedig-gers, participants should be on the lookout for the many ghostly characters whose lives shaped the city as they appear and disappear before their eyes.

New Bern’s two historic the-atres will open their doors with special performances. And watch for a surprise appearance on the Tryon Palace front lawn.

The lighthearted mystery-com-edy, Ham Radio is at the Attmore Oliver House with Mr. Dowd and his family of the Veri-Good Bakery now the sponsor of a 1940 radio show. The Veri-Good Bakery will appear with lots of goodies.

Tickets are $17 in advance and $22, the days of the event. Special pricing for active duty mili-tary, their dependents and stu-dents, all with ID, is $12. Children between the ages of 3-12 are $5 and under those under the age of 3 are admitted for free.

Tickets are available online at www.NewBernHistorical.org/ghostwalk and at outlets which include the Convention Center, Bank of the Arts, Mitchell Hardware, Harris Teeter in New Bern and Morehead City, as well at ITT Cherry Point and ASAP Photo in Greenville.

For more information, call 252-638-8558 or visit www.NewBernHistorical.org.

NEWS-TIMESEach year ghosts, goblins,

witches and other little mon-sters gather at the Newport Little League Field to celebrate a very spooky occasion.

This year’s event is from 6-9 p.m. Monday, Oct. 31, which is more commonly known as Halloween.

The Hootenanny provides a safe option for children to expe-rience all that Halloween has to offer and more.

It was organized in 1979 by the late Bengi Flannigan, a Newport resident who wanted to give chil-dren a safe way to celebrate with-out walking the streets at night.

“This is a Newport tradition that gets bigger and better every year,” said Pam Wall, one of the event’s organizers. “It’s always exciting. It’s one of those things that you put a lot of work into, but you get more out of it in return.”

The event, hosted by the Newport Rotary Club, is free, though donations of canned goods will be accepted.

The Hootenanny will feature over 20 children’s Halloween games, a costume contest, hay-rides, a petting zoo and a bouncy house. There will also be an area

where children and adults alike can take photographs and selfies.

Free food will be provided, including hot dogs, popcorn, cot-ton candy and drinks.

While in attendance, children can dance the night away at a spooky dance party, with music provided by a deejay from CJ Entertainment.

There will also be a separate area for the Hootenanny’s young-est participants, with games, activities and treats that focus on toddler’s needs. There will be no small candies, and the activities will be geared toward their devel-oping motor skills.

Volunteers are needed to make the Hootenanny a success. Those interested in volunteering can show up at the Little League Field starting at noon Monday.

There will be no heavy lift-ing required. Volunteers will hand out candy and run the carnival activities.

All volunteers are asked to con-tact Ms. Wall at [email protected].

Ms. Wall said the event would not be possible without the help of community sponsors:

Event sponsors� Newport Rotary Club.� Newport. � Newport Little League.� Newport Pig Cooking.

Hootenanny to offer spooky good Halloween fun� Frank Door Co.

The national nonprofit orga-nization Homes for Our Troops will host a community kick-off event to officially start the building of a specially adapt-ed home in Stella for Marine Sgt. Jacob Pope. Sgt. Pope was injured while serving in Afghanistan.

The community kickoff event will introduce Sgt. Pope to the community. It will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 29, at the USO Building, 9 Tallman St. in Jacksonville. The public is welcome to attend.

On Aug. 16, 2011, Sgt. Pope, an explosive ordnance dispos-al (EOD) technician, was on patrol with the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marines, investigating improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in Afghanistan when he was struck by a tertiary device, according to the Homes for Our Troops website.

The blast resulted in the loss of his left leg and severe dam-age to the right leg.

Now medically retired, Sgt. Pope is living in a home that is not wheelchair accessible, forcing him to wear his pros-thetic leg all day.

This has put strain on his right leg, causing new injuries to his knee.

His current bathroom is a safety risk and he often wor-ries about falling, especially while his young daughter, Addison, is home.

As a single parent, Sgt. Pope’s primary concern is his daughter’s well-being.

Addison’s room is on the second floor, making it difficult for him to reach her. A spe-cially adapted Homes for Our Troops home that is one level with an open floor plan will allow Sgt. Pope to care for his daughter without restrictions. He is most looking forward to reading Addison bedtime sto-ries without having to navigate stairs.

The home being built for Sgt. Pope will feature more than 40 major special adaptations, such as widened doorways for wheelchair access, a roll-in shower and kitchen amenities that include pull-down shelv-ing and lowered countertops.

The home will also alleviate the mobility and safety issues associated with a traditional home, including navigating a wheelchair through narrow hallways or over thresholds or reaching for cabinets that are too high.

Homes for Our Troops has

built 225 homes since the

organization’s inception in

2004. Homes for Our Troops

relies on contributions from

donors, supporters and corpo-

rate partners for the building

of each veteran’s home.

Community members may

hold fundraisers or make

donations. To find out more

on how to get involved or

make a donation visit www.

hfotusa.org.
