CHRISTINE’S CORNER by Christine Pace SPORTS TALENT One local 12-year-old from Cedar Mountain is making himself known within the sports field. I’ve watched Christian Girolamo excel in tennis from the start, the year I took one of my grandsons to a tennis camp at the Brevard Racquet Club. So I wasn’t surprised to see him enter the soccer field Saturday as a referee. I don’t know of a sport he doesn’t excel in!

Happily Christian agreed to let me take his picture for this week’s column. Keep an eye on this talented young man. Congratulations Christian! N (photo by Christine Pace)

SHERWOOD FOREST GOLF

Sherwood Forest Women's golf league results for April 25 - Sixteen women played the back nine in a game of Two Best Balls. The winning team: Georgia Osterc, Lois Bollini, Patty Pike and Sandra Eidson. Low net: Georgia Osterc with 26. Next week, play starts at 9 a.m. so be at the course by 8:30 to check in. Those hours continue through the end of August. We will play the front nine in a scramble format. For those who have the time, when play is finished, we will gather for lunch across the street from the clubhouse at the Cedar Mountain Outpost, 11-ish. Even if you can't play, come out to join us.

AROUND THE HOUSE by Linda Packer Young (photo by Richard Packer)

Thanks to the beautiful weather we have had we have been able to get out in the yard more. One day last week I was cleaning up an area that hadn’t been touched since the subdivision was started. I was raking and uncovered a buried sign that had been there under the leaf debris since about 1987. My honey took the picture of me and my “discovery. I plan to refurbish and reuse the sign.

Thank you for reading the Cedar Mountain News. Your contributions and comments are encouraged and welcome. We’d like to hear what’s going on if you would like to share. Photos are welcome as well. Please email news and photos to Linda at cedarmountainnews@gmail.com by Monday evening if possible.
