On Monday Chatham Olive and I will be going to ceremonies to honor Gastonia and Salisbury as Cool Cities.
In Gastonia Mayor Jennie Stultz informs me that they will be presenting the 'top 20 reasons why Gastonia is cool,' in addition to a presentation from school children about 'why their city is cool.' I am certainly looking forward to that!
The ceremony is at 11 AM at the City Hall. Here is last week's Gaston Gazette coverage about the city coming on.
In the evening we will be honoring Salisbury at the community's 'Green Dinner.' Former national Sierra Club President and current Henderson County Commissioner Chuck McGrady will be present to give the city its honor!
That event will be at 6:30 PM. Coverage in the Salisbury Post from when the city originally signed on is here.
Congratulations to Gastonia and Salisbury! We hope your leadership will provide a model for the rest of the Charlotte/Mecklenburg region.
