Class of 2010 says goodbye NBHS


By Matt Tate A few tears, lots of smiles and a


bevy of warm send-offs highlighted the 56th graduating class of North Buncombe High School on Sunday (June 13). Te school recognized 210


graduates with their diplomas. Se- nior Seth Fox delivered a touching speech about how his class has and will continue to affect one another. “I love you guys,” he tearfully

Ticks


starting to appear in WNC as they do every spring. Besides being bothersome by attach- ing to us and to our pet’s skin and feeding on blood, they also represent a real and potential- ly life-threatening health risk. Ticks can infect people and pets with several different serious diseases. The most common of these diseases in our region is Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF). RMSF causes a fever, lethargy, pain and many other possible symptoms. RMSF is potentially fatal but is quite treatable if caught early and is preventable through avoiding tick bites. The best way to protect your dog or cat from ticks and diseases they carry is to decrease their chances of being bit by using products such as Frontline. Be aware that there are many products out there that claim to offer tick protection but are not particularly effective and may not be safe, especially for cats. Ask your veterinarian for advice on the right protection for your pet.
