Bill Kempffer’s Bio
Founder and operator of Deep River Sporting Clays and Shooting School since January of 1989 and founder of the Southern Side by Side Championship & Exhibition first held in April of 2000.
“I am passionate about coaching all levels of shooters, from complete beginners to advanced. Having been involved in the shooting sports since a youngster, it is a blessing to have the opportunity to help others achieve their goals and I am grateful to have been able to do that for the past 25 years. I believe in keeping things simple and allowing each person to discover and capitalize on their strengths while passing on the tools that
will serve them well. I have discovered that the keys to success are Focus, Movement & Faith and believe the outdoor sports, particularly shooting, promote physical and mental well-being.”
Monday, May 1st marks the kickoff to the Farmers Market at the Health Department from 10:30 – 1:00 p.m.
The marketing idea came together through the work of both the Health Departments WIC (Women, Infant & Children) and Education Divisions. Having this market at the Health Dept. will make it easier for WIC participants to use their Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) vouchers. The Health Education division became involved because obesity has been identified as a health priority in the two previous Community Health Assessments.
Since the current farmers markets all occur in the southern portion of the County, having it in Carthage will allow people in the northern portions to
have access to fresh produce.
Rich Tompkins, the Accreditation Coordinator/Public Health Educator, Lauren Rakes, the Supervisor of the Woman, Infant & Child Dept. and local farmer, Dave Maness join us in the first part of the show to discuss.
Some of the local farms being featured include : Eagles Nest Berry Farm, Priest Family Farms, Highlander Farms, Happy Trails Farms, Paradox Farms & 3 M’s Boer Goat Farm.
Healthy eating & obesity is discussed with Kathy O’Donnell. Her experience in consulting, organizational behavior, psychology & her training as a whole food natural chef gives us a new bent or understanding about the behavior of unhealthy eating and how to change it. Kathy eloquently and wittingly dispels the efficacy of common diets and the culture of fast foods in the fast pace lives we all lead. Through her involvement at First Health’s
Clara McLean House she can easily draw on the strong relationship between diet & illness. Her word pictures are something we can all relate to. The
Clara McLean House provides overnight accommodations for patients and families in a variety of situations. www.claramcleanhouse.org

Kara has worked for a food broker for 27 years and together they are overseeing their youngest daughter, Natalie, age 18, moving on to college and her twin sisters, Oliva & Shawn (age 22) finding their way in the world and the work force.
Kara and John are now also new homeowners in Southern Pines in a 1915 landmark home that originally served the area as an eye clinic and is situated on Mass. Ave – walking distance to the downtown area.
Their story unfolds in an interview that covers the cultures of the North & South, stark remembrances of 9-11, the pace of life, new beginnings & their draw to Moore County and the beginning of their love affair with Southern Pines.
Listening to Kara and John is a great reminder of what we sometimes take for granted. Moore County is a great place to live.
