Weaverville Intern relishes short stint


By Matt Tate Tomas Ell wrapped up his five-


week internship at Weaverville Drug Company on Friday (Sept. 16). Not only did he learn the ins-


and-outs of a locally owned phar- macy, the staff shared some North Buncombe culture with the New York state transplant. “Our staff has been teaching


him local stuff and local sayings,” Chuck Sprinkle said. Ell, who will graduate from Win-

his native area after graduation, but he has certainly found his getaway spot. “I’ll be sure to take my vacations down here,” Ell, 24, said.
