CAROLINA THREAD TRAIL AWARDS $755,500 FOR TRAIL PROJECTS TO 7 PARTNERS The Carolina Thread Trail has just an- nounced new grant awards to seven partners advancing public trails across the Greater Charlotte region, totaling more than $634,000. Over the past 11 years, the Thread Trail has awarded over $8 million in catalytic grants to communities throughout the 15-county region in North and South Carolina. Access to nature and the outdoors plays an important role in quality of life and econom- ic development in the Carolinas. The outdoor recreation industry contributes over $10 billion annually to the North Carolina economy, and a recent study by North Carolina State Uni- versity's Institute of Transportation Research and Education (ITRE) on six trails within the Thread Trail network showed notable benefi ts to the economy, health and the environment. These recent grant awards will help catalyze new trails across the region, bringing benefi ts like these to local communities. "We are excited to support our partners in creating trail networks to enhance their com- munities and connect lives to nature," said Jane Love, Community Coordinator with the Carolina Thread Trail. "All of the grant recipi- ents from this round are taking critical steps towards expanding trails and providing more access for people to enjoy the outdoors." The Carolina Thread Trail's Implementation Grant Program provides funding to commu- nities and nonprofi t organizations to support projects in trail construction, design, land ac- quisition and corridor planning. Currently over 370 miles of greenways and trails, as well as 170 miles of blueways, are open to the public within the Thread Trail system. The grant award amount, community infor- mation and the use of the grants follow: CITY OF CONCORD - $70,000 Trail Con- struction.

About The Carolina Thread Trail The Carolina Thread Trail is a 15-county, two-state initiative designed to create a re- gional network of trails, blueways and con- servation corridors that will link more than 2.9 million people. With technical resources and catalytic funding from the Thread Trail, local communities plan and implement their por- tions of this greenway system. The Carolina Thread Trail region includes Anson, Cabarrus, Catawba, Cleveland, Gas- ton, Iredell, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Rowan, Stanly and Union counties within North Car- olina and Cherokee, Chester, Lancaster and York counties in South Carolina. Catawba Lands Conservancy is the lead agency for the Thread Trail, which is working in partnership with Foundation for the Carolinas and many local partners. Currently, more than 370 miles of Thread Trail are open to the public. For more information, visit www.carolinathreadtrail.org. Submitted by Jennifer Clark K i n g s M o u n t a i n High's Zane Brockman did something Tuesday night at Lancaster Field that's never been done before in the 100-plus year history of Mountain- eer baseball. The senior right hander not only pitched a perfect game but every out (15) was a strikeout in the Mountaineers' 13-0 Big South 3A Con- ference win over the Hunter Huss Huskies. The game ended in the middle of the fifth inning on the NCHSAA's 10-run mercy rule. After Brockman sent the first three Huskies back to the dugout via the strikeout route, he and the Mountaineers came to bat in the bot- tom of the first inning to go up 3-0 to get the rout underway. The Huskie hurlers had a tough time all night getting the ball in the strike zone, beginning when KM's leadoff batter Caleb Broome was hit by a pitch. He stole sec- ond and third and scored what would be the win- ning run when Jacob Hamrick singled to right. An error and wild pitch accounted for the other two runs. Kings Mountain added four runs in the second to go up 7-0. Lucas Saldo got things going with an infield single and Broome followed with a double to put runners on second and third. After a pitch- ing change a walk and wild pitch ran the score to 4-0. Cole Irby singled to left for a 6-0 lead and another run scored on a wild pitch. The Mountaineers went up 12-0 in the third. Tucker Cash, Saldo and Broome reached on hits and Hamrick homered to make the score 11-0. Cash's fly ball to left was dropped and the score- board moved to 12-0. K i n g s M o u n t a i n scored its final run in the fourth. Aiden Taylor led off with a double to left and Turner Brown singled to put run- ners on first and third. Brockman's sacrifice fly brought Taylor home with the 13th run. Walks to Wyatt Davis and Colton Mayes re-loaded the sacks but C.J. Whit- worth came on to pitch for Huss and got Melton and Toney on fly outs. Senior pitcher Zane Brockman made KMHS baseball history with perfect game against Hunter Huss last week at Lancaster Field.
