Event shines light on veterans

HIGH POINT â Families and friends of retired and active veterans gathered Saturday at the Heroes Center in observation of Military Appreciation Day.
Brigadier Gen. James R. Gorham, a retired veteran and the first Black officer to become a general in the N.C. National Guard, shared his personal experiences and lifted up the cause of homeless veterans.
âThereâs a lot of veterans out there who are suffering for various reasons,â Gorham said. âSome of us have lost hope, but Iâm here to give an encouraging word to who might want to receive it today.â
Gorham shared his story of growing up as a sharecropperâs son in a family of 11 in eastern North Carolina. After joining the military, Gorham resolved to climb 13 miles to the top of Pikes Peak when he was sent to Colorado Springs, Colorado. His efforts to get higher-ranking officers to join him on that quest failed. Four entry-level soldiers â two men and two women â took the challenge and agreed to climb the mountain. They experienced lightning and blizzard conditions once they reached the clouds near the mountaintop, and relied on three other climbers they had met along the way, who supplied toboggans, gloves and other cold-weather provisions.

Piedmont-Triad communities come together to celebrate safely

Celebrating a second Easter in the pandemic, communities are trying to get back to in-person events.Many churches are holding services in-person as well as virtually. But Easter egg hunts are pretty much impossible to do over Zoom.The Heroes Center in High Point decided to move forward with its Easter festivities, figuring their 8 acres of property would be enough to keep everyone distanced. The center prepared to host at least 100 children from across the community, especially wanting to invite refugee and disadvantaged children. In addition to the egg hunt, the morning included crafts, time with rescue dogs and visits from High Point University's Prowler and the Easter bunny."We hope to give them a special experience that they may not otherwise be able to enjoy in their homes," said Bob Uber, president of the Heroes Center.High Point police and tactical units also paid the kids at the event a visit, letting off their sirens and taking pictures.The afternoon schedule was more adult-oriented, with an Easter Service lead by Pastor Orrick and local performers from 4 to 6 p.m. in the auditorium. Uber said he was happy to see so many smiling faces, even if the majority were behind masks.While this event was open to the public, the Heroes Center's year-round goal is to honor, heal and hire veterans. You can find more information about the organization on its website.
