For National Civic Pride Day, I take this moment to say an enormous THANK YOU to everyone who is out there helping others. We see it en mass here in western North Carolina, where workers and volunteers go above and beyond day after day. This is true of neighbors, local churches, various clubs and organizations, and some amazing small businesses and community-involved larger businesses. Thank you, thank you, thank you… to one and all.
