month by hosting its annual
Halloween by the Sea Costume
Ball on Saturday, Oct. 24, at
Cape Carteret Aquatic and
Wellness Center.
“Itʼs always fun to come out
and see the costumes,” SADF
President Dr. Tina Siegel told
the membership. “People really
put a lot of effort into them.
Weʼll have a DJ and dancing,
too.”
This yearʼs event is co-hosted by the Cape Carteret Trail
Committee, and contributions
raised will be shared between
the two organizations.
Tickets are $15 in advance
and $20 at the door. For more
details, visit the SADFʼs website … www.sadfnc.org.
The Swansboro Parks and
Recreation Department will
host its fourth annual Halloweenie Roast on Friday, Oct. 23,
beginning at 5:30 p.m. in the
Olde Town Square.
Come dressed to impress in
your Halloween costume and
enjoy Halloween fun and a free
“weenie” roast.
“This year, in partnership
with the Swansboro Historical Association, we will offer
ʻTales of Olde Swansboro,ʼ
complete with a hayride that
goes through town,” Swansboro
Parks and Recreation Director
Brittany Shipp explained.
The small fee for each
hayride will be donated to the
Swansboro Historical Association for Swansboroʼs Heritage
Museum.
Cedar Pointʼs “Festival of
Lights” will also continue this
year, running from Nov. 28 to
Dec. 12.
“We estimate approximately
10,000 people will come to see

the lights during these weeks.
Thatʼs 10,000 potential customers to our area,” Festival of
Lights chair Don Redfern noted.
Each weekend will be filled
with various activities, including Santaʼs appearance at the famous Octagon House in Cedar
Point and a live nativity scene.
Unfortunately, some popular
area fall events have already
passed us by.
The SADF hosted literary
royalty Oct. 3 when Gerald
Charles Dickens came to town,
performing “Doctor Marigold,”
written by his great-greatgrandfather, the beloved British
novelist Charles Dickens.
On Sept. 13, St. Peterʼs
by-the-Sea Episcopal Church
brought lobsters to town for its
biggest fundraiser of the year.
Whole Maine lobsters were
available for purchase with net
proceeds going to the churchʼs
local outreach program, according to church spokesperson
Anne Hume.
And for the third year,
Swansboro and Emerald Isle
restaurants joined with North
Carolina craft breweries to
participate in Flavor 2015, the
Swansboro Area Events Organizationʼs largest fundraiser of
the year.
Hundreds came out to experience the tastes of North
Carolina. Proceeds from the
event were distributed among
Swansboro High School, Croatan High School, Onslow
Community Outreach and
the Hope Mission of Carteret
County.

Tideland News, October 7, 2015, Swansboro, N.C..–3E
Land of great water
Howʼs your drinking water?
(Have you even given it much
thought lately? Most of us
havenʼt.) Is it tasty, clear and
refreshing like it should be?
And look around your home.
Are calcium deposits scaling up
your shower? And, speaking of
the shower, do you actually feel
CLEAN after you take one? Or
is soap residue giving you that
dry and sticky feeling all too
common with hard water?
If youʼre not completely satisfied with the standard of your
water, whether it be your home
or a business, itʼs time to call
your Culligan Man. Thatʼs right,
take the advice of the classic
Culligan radio ads of years past
(“Hey Culligan Man!”) and call
your local Culligan Man, Eric
Leiblein.
Culligan has long been
known as a world-leader in the
water treatment industry. As a
matter of fact, next year will be
the companyʼs 80th anniversary.
Culligan has also led the way
in the bottled water industry,
making traditional bottle coolers a must-have for both home
and business. Todayʼs Culligan
now offers Bottle-Free water
systems with built-in filtration
to ensure fresh water is as easy
and convenient as possible.
The Culligan location in
Cape Carteret was originally
named Croatan Water. When Al
Easton, Leibleinʼs father-in-law,
purchased Croatan Water in
the late 1990s, he already had
over 35 years of experience in
the water treat––––––––
ment business.
Now the family
Spotlight
is involved in
––––––––
eight Culligan
locations servicing all of eastern
North Carolina.
“The first thing I always
ask is what bothers you about
your water? How do you want
it to be? Then I tell you what it
takes to get it there,” Leiblein
explained. “Often, the answer
is just as simple as applying an
inline filter.” Water analysis is
always free of charge.
“After we analyze the water,
we sit with the customer and
find out what they want their
water to be like. Then we develop a plan to get them there,”
he continued.
Leiblein emphasized that itʼs
never too early to think about
your water … even when your
dream house is still in its planning stages.
“Itʼs so much easier to prepare your home for possible
water upgrades, even if you
donʼt decide to take action right
away,” he noted. Pre-plumbing
a home for a future water system can save a lot of time and
money when you are ready to
purchase.

Calcium is usually the culprit when you find white scaling
in your bathroom or appliances.
And chlorine is a constant problem that is often overlooked,
and so easy to eliminate,”
Leiblein observed. “If you have
dry, itchy skin, chances are
it comes as a result from too
much of one of these in your
water. A change in your water
should help.”
For customers who are on
well water in the area, Culligan
of Cape Carteret offers water
treatment solutions for problems like iron (rust) and sulphur
(rotten egg smell).
For someone who wants
the best drinking water for the
home … enter reverse osmosis,
a water purification technology that uses a semi-permeable
Bill Lee – the “Culligan Men and (Women)!
membrane to remove dissolved
particles from drinking water.
Water treated by reverse osmosis will be up to 99 percent
pure.
If you buy bottled water
from Culligan in Cape Carteret
you can choose among spring,
distilled or premium, all purified by reverse osmosis.
“Weʼre unique because we
have our own bottled water
company, NC Bottled Water
Company, located in Goldsboro,” Leiblein said, referring
to the familyʼs own bottling
company. All North Carolina
bottlers are regulated by the
National Sanitation Foundation.
Culligan bottlers are held to an
even higher standard because
they are also regulated by the

more stringent bottling practices

the quality of water being produced by the bottler.
NC Bottled Water Company
has received the “Excellence in
Manufacturing” Award for the
last several years.
“Because we bottle for
ourselves we can ensure that
the water is bottled fresh and
distributed quickly from all our
eastern North Carolina stores,”
Leiblein noted.

Innovative technology for all
Back when rotary phones
were still plentiful, the phone
company met the phone needs
of the consumer … nothing
more. Such was certainly the
case with Oak Ridge Telephone
Company, the beginning of
todayʼs global CenturyLink.
The Louisiana-based company
started with a switchboard and
75 paying customers in the
1930s.
“Weʼre not the plain old
phone company anymore.
Weʼre so much more than that,”
CenturyLinkʼs Market Development Manager Stephanie Cashwell is quick to explain. “Yes,
we are a global company with
40,000-plus employees worldwide but we are still your local
source for innovative technology here in Swansboro. We are
your local provider right around
the corner.”
CenturyLink is a one-stop
shop, so to speak, where you
can find solutions for both residential and commercial communication issues.
“We have an option that will
fit your needs, no matter what
they are,” she emphasized. “We
have a personalized experience
just for you!”
With “bundle,” a very familiar catch phrase these days,
CenturyLink works to bundle
all of your needs together, offering customers efficient and
economical ways to get the job
done, whatever that job may be.
From its humble beginnings, CenturyLink now offers
bundles that include everything
from high-speed Internet, television, security options and
phones for the home to cloud,
managed IT services and security for business
and commercial ––––––––
Spotlight
use.
“When
––––––––
it comes to
bundles, we need to sit and talk
and determine what your needs
are before we quote any prices,”
Cashwell noted. “We donʼt
want to sell you something you
donʼt need. We will customize
your package to suit you.
“The first thing we will ask
you is ʻHow much Internet do
you use and what do you use
it for?ʼ Thereʼs nothing worse
than paying a lot of money for
something that you arenʼt using,” she continued.
According to Cashwell, fast
Internet is a key concern for
customers and CenturyLink
offers fast Internet at very competitive prices.
To help small businesses,
CenturyLink offers CoreConnect, bundling Internet, voice,
and business applications
like email and web presence
into one bundled service each
month.
“This is great if youʼre a new
business, just starting up, and
donʼt exactly know what you
will need in the future. You can
sign up for CoreConnect and
then decide what your business
needs later on. You can customize your package afterwards.
Itʼs a good starter pack,” she
advised.
ʻRemember, we never
want to sell you something you donʼt need.ʼ
Stephanie Cashwell
One of the newest programs
CenturyLink offers is Fiber
Plus, a product that brings
mega-fast Gigabit Internet right
here to Swansboro, giving small
to mid-size business customers
the fast Internet they need.
“I want to emphasize that
Gig services for business are
already here, and you have
access to this right now in
Swansboro,” Cashwell explained. “Weʼre ahead of the
Raleigh area in that aspect.”
And, of course, this can be
bundled with voice services and
business applications, tailoring
the best bundle for you.
“Remember, we never want
to sell you something you donʼt
need,” she continued. “This is
an option for a business that
uploads and downloads a lot. If
you donʼt, you can still use the
Fiber Plus but only purchase
40 or 100 Mgs, instead of a full
Gig.”
Larger businesses will want
to work with Cloud products, or
Big Data.
So, what exactly is the CenturyLink difference? Not only
do they work to customize the
technology needs to fit your
business and offer local service,
but they also have their own
fiber network.

The Swannsborough Yacht
Club hosted the Swansboro
Area Chamber of Commerceʼs
September Business After
Hours.
Club manager Laura Bertino
showcased the new bar/grill
area and extended outdoor seating.
Members were treated to
peel-and-eat shrimp, shrimp
salad, Buffalo shrimp, beer-battered shrimp and homemade
chicken salad wraps, among
other items on their menu.
Everything was delicious!
Many thanks to the Yacht
Club staff; they were exceptional hosts.
Members in attendance had a
wonderful time networking and,
as always, enjoyed the incredible sunset views from the deck.
Yes, the sun did peep out a few
times amongst the clouds.
If you havenʼt visited the
Yacht Club lately to check out
whatʼs new, youʼre missing out.
Great food and a great waterfront location for folks of all
ages!
Candidate forums on tap
The month of October ushers in the fall season and brings
not only cooler temperatures
but also many festivals and
events celebrating our areas rich
culture. The Swansboro Mullet
Festival of North Carolina, a
variety of fishing tournaments,
Halloween celebrations and
more.
In addition to these socially
oriented events there are also
events that are political in nature with municipal elections
the first Tuesday in November.
Preceding the elections will be
two candidate forums: one in
Cape Carteret Oct. 15 and one

These events are an invaluable opportunity to not only
meet the candidates, but to also
hear their positions on a variety
of subjects directly impacting
the citizens of this area.
With recent developments
and decisions made by our
current leaders, now is the opportunity to let your voice be
heard. Educate yourself on the
candidates, as there are many
new faces, then get out and exercise your constitutional right
