That means the holiday shopping season together we need to support our local clubs, youth sports, has already begun and if you’re like 40 percent of consumers, nonprofits and businesses,” she said. “It is not just a one day you’ve already started picking out gifts. thing. This is a mindset we need to be in all year.” But where you shop is every bit as important as when Through the #Together We Are Moore hashtag, the idea is you shop. to let the community harness the power of social media. The “For years we have all embraced the ‘Shop Small, Shop slogan, in effect, becomes a mutual expression of gratitude. Local’ idea around the holidays. But it’s time to think about Katrin Frankin, president of Pinehurst Business Partners, this differently,” said Linda Parsons, president and CEO of the said she is excited about the new initiative. Moore County Chamber of Commerce. “We have so many “I feel like the Chamber is perfectly positioned to spearhead great businesses. We need that momentum to carry this revamping and re-inspiring of what we already know through the entire year.” and like about the holiday season,” Franklin said. That idea sparked #Together We Are “At this point, Shop Small Saturday is Moore, a new year-round social media expected. But to turn that idea on its head campaign focused on community- and figure out how we can use that building that was initiated by the momentum to create a yearound Chamber earlier this month. investment, that is genius!” “If we shop in our community, Franklin opened Bump & Baby, do business in our community, all an expectant mother and baby these things we do together as a boutique, in the village of Pinehurst community, this is economically in 2015.

And they are only seeing this on a small scale, A NEW MINDSET popping in and out,” she said. “But we get to live it.” Families will spend around $1,048 this holiday Franklin said she, like other small store owners, spends season on gifts and decorations.

Wealth Management sees similar strengths and challenges. “We want people to realize that we are a community and Born and raised in the same community he continues to

10 www.moorecountychamber.com call home, Hill also serves as president of the Seven Lakes Business Guild. “I believe our county has a bubble over it. Especially here in Seven Lakes that is true. I can put my kids on bicycles and not worry. We have that small town feel,” Hill said. As a local businessman, a volunteer with multiple nonprofits and civic organizations, and father of three sons with his wife, Alicia, Hill said the family-oriented aspect of Moore County coupled with the demographics and market opportunities offer the right balance. “In my profession, I do a lot of face-to-face business. It is important to have that interaction and look people in the eye,” Hills said. “If you are trying to work over the phone or online, you can’t build that same relationship.” He said #Together We Are Moore is a great reminder for people to think about what services are available in their own backyard. “It’s amazing how many businesses are here in the community that people don’t even think about,” he said. Seven Lakes is an unincorporated area, but population-wise is the area’s fourth largest “town.” The business guild welcomes new members and coordinates several community events including an annual Chili Cook-Off to raise money for road repairs in the main business village, and also civic functions like installing dozens of American flags along Seven Lakes Drive for Veterans Day, Memorial Day and the Fourth of July. “People can go online and walk the Amazon sidewalk to find what they need and checkout. But there is a real difference when you walk outside and stop by your local shops and offices,” Hill said. Aberdeen’s downtown planner Christian Haas said it is “absolutely vital” to think about shopping local more than just one day per year. “Our focus should be to spread the value of local economies until it becomes second nature choose brick and mortar over mouse and keyboard,” he said. “The Amazon Effect is a real and is threatening the charm of small town America. While online shopping may allow us to get products cheaper and without getting off the couch, it results in fewer locally owned businesses, less homegrown entrepreneurship, fewer people walking around downtown districts, diminished municipal budgets from depressed sales tax revenues, and an overall disintegration of our sense of community. Every time we choose buying local over the convenience of shopping online, we’re weaving the fabric of our community a little bit tighter,” he added. Jana Volitis serves as the Moore Chamber’s director of operations. She said supporting the local economy also means supporting the area’s nonprofits by attending events or volunteering, stopping by a Farmers Market or local produce stands, grabbing a show put on by a local musician, and selecting a local contractor or professional when you need services. “If everyone realizes how little they would need to give back if everyone gave back,” she said, “it would make such a difference.

Although more popular at big events and festivals, live entertainment in Moore County is a regular occurrence. Residents have opportunities throughout the year to catch a performance of the Carolina Philharmonic Orchestra, the North Carolina Symphony and the Arts Council hosts a Classical Concert Series that brings in talent from all over the world. For those interested in more contemporary styles of music, Moore County has regular concert seriessuch as First Friday in Southern Pines, Live after Five in the Village of Pinehurst and shows at The Rooster’s Wife in Aberdeen. Many of these performances offer free admission, and are presented by the county’s best venues, such as the Sunrise Theater in Southern Pines. In the spring and sum- mer, artists perform outside to accommodate larger crowds and take advantage of nicer weather. There are also festivals throughout the year that support local bluegrass bands and southern rock groups, such as the annual Buggy Festival in Carthage and Farmer’s Day in Robbins. For those who fancy live theater, Broadway shows, ballet and world-re- nowned speakers the Given Performing Arts Center at the nearby University of North Carolina at Pembroke offers access to them on one of the finest stages in the state. The newly renovated Bradshaw Performing Arts Center at Sandhills Community College brings a variety of theater and the Ruth Pauley Lecture series. This lecture series, sponsored by the college, the Moore County League of Wom- en Voters, the American Association of University Women, and Moore County Schools, introduces noted speakers to the Sandhills. The goal of the lectures is to deepen understanding of key issues and encourage public participation in their resolution. A new performing arts center, Encore!, opened in 2019 in downtown Southern Pines to offer theater, dance and music instruction and performances. Moore County isn’t lacking in the literary department either. The Weymouth Center for the Arts and Humanities became home to the North Carolina Literary Hall of Fame in 1996. This exciting cultural trademark was made possible by former Weymouth Center resident, James Boyd. He made his living writing and publishing, and has been accredited with launching the “Southern Literary Renaissance” in the 1920s and 30s. Boyd’s former study – now known as the Boyd Room – is used to host book readings featuring North Carolina’s most talented authors. The county’s artistic flare wouldn’t be complete without its historical pottery scene. Residents travel across the county to browse the sprawling selection of clay-made crafts in Cameron and Robbins. In fact, Cameron hosts the biannual Antique and Collectibles Fair to celebrate the vast number of local potters and antique shops. Moore County’s art scene entertains the classics, and recognizes its southern roots. From traditional art forms to some good ol’ bluegrass, residents can engage in a variety of cultural opportunities throughout the year. www.moorecountychamber.com 33 CULTURE

Volunteers Volunteers play a huge part of what makes Moore County such a vibrant community. Whether it’s keeping up the gardens at Weymouth, helping at the hospital, or coaching a Dixie Youth team, volunteers add untold value to the lives of others without expecting a dime in return. Local business associations in the larger towns contribute to the beauty and economic health of their downtowns through volunteer efforts, raising money and donating it to good causes. Serving the community through local government boards and committees is another approach. Animal lovers devote thousands of hours a year to help agencies such as Moore Humane Society keep the pet population healthy and adopted to good homes. Countless events are run each year by volunteers, such as the Sandhills Race Series, a collection of fun runs of differing distance and Friday music events during the warm months. Others volunteer with local schools, the Sunrise Theater or the Arts Council of Moore County, mentoring small businesses, or as ambassadors for the Chamber of Commerce. Whatever your special skills are or what area you’d like to get involved in, there’s likely a great avenue for you to contribute.

Prior to beginning their journeys in Moore County Schools, it is essential that all children have the opportunity to build early development skills that will enhance their success in a rigorous and innovative academic curriculum. Moore County Schools (MCS) is one of 77 counties in North Carolina that utilizes a research-based program called Creative Curricu- lum in all of its pre-school classes that focuses on principles of early child development. Through a partnership with North Carolina’s Smart Start program, MCS preschoolers are prepared for success in kindergarten by enhanced readiness in the areas of reading, basic mathematics and social emotional skills. Moore County Schools’ Digital Learning Initiative provides a Chromebook device for all students grades 6 through 12, for use in school and at home. Elementary students utilize Chromebooks, iPads, and other instructional technology as part of their daily instruction. The purposes of the initiative are to ensure students are college and career ready; to provide opportunities for students to showcase mastery and growth through the creation and publication of digital work; and to immerse students in per- sonalized learning experiences to collaborate, create and publish, always grounded in the foundation of the curriculum standards. “Engage. Inspire. Succeed.” is the name of MCS’ Strategic Plan for 2018-2021. The plan includes strategic action steps within the five domains of academic achievement; student safety, health and welfare; employee culture and capacity; parent and community engagement; and organizational capacity and efficiency. The county’s 24 public schools offer students challenging lessons taught by licensed professionals with years of experience in the field and in the classroom. In fact, nearly half of the school system’s 1,124 certified employees have obtained a master’s degree or higher in their field of expertise or in teaching. Elementary, middle school and high school teachers engage students with rigorous and innovative teaching and learning opportunities. District and school opportunities that support students to be future ready include the STEM initiative, which includes robotics programs in grades K-12, science kits for grades K-8, CyberPatriot teams at all three high schools, and summer STEM camps that introduce students to STEM-focused ca- www.moorecountychamber.com 51 EDUCATION

reers such as computer programming, forensics, robotics, engineering and chemistry; technology resources and tools; service projects; clubs; athletics and the arts. Moore County is one of only four “Innovation Academies” in the state of North Carolina as well as the only district in NC to be awarded multiple Digital Teaching and Learning Grants. The five leadership skills that students focus on include accountability, service, adaptability, teamwork and responsibility. Moore County’s excellent high schools make it easy for students to successfully transition into college. SAT scores consistently meet or exceed state and national averages, and all three schools offer Advanced Placement courses, enabling students to start earning college credits in high school. Sandhills Community College also allows high school stu- dents in Moore and Hoke Counties to take courses prior to graduation exempt of tuition fees. In addition to a highly accredited public school system, Moore County has several private schools and charter schools, such as The O’Neal School, Episcopal Day School, Sandhills Classical Christian, The Academy of Moore, and Stars. O’Neal students can attend from kindergarten through graduation at a comprehensive private school with a focus on academic achievement. Episcopal Day runs grades K-8 and stresses strong foundations for life long learning. For those who want to embrace a religious lifestyle in the class- room, Moore County has Christian academies available for students. Sandhills Classical Christian combines a challenging learning envi- ronment with a Christian based approach to develop high achievers in grades K-12. The Academy of Moore, has been in place for 17 years and is a top rated public charter elementary school in North Carolina. A newer addition to the Moore County charter school offerings is Moore Mon- tessori which opened it’s doors to 90 elementary school students in 2018. These schools offer alternative, advanced learning opportunities for students interested in smaller class sizes and/or special curricula.

Photo courtesy of Black Rock Vineyards With the emergence of the craft brewing industry, it’s no surprise that Moore County has breweries, wineries and cider houses of its own. The trendsetter was Rail House Brewery that was opened nearly a decade ago by veterans in historic downtown Aberdeen. Following suit, three retired Green Berets traded in their boots for barley and started brewing beers like Man of Law IPA and Duck Hook cream ale, opening Southern Pines Brewing Company in late 2014. Both breweries have family friendly taprooms and are hosts to community events throughout the year including Southern Pines Brewery’s Pints and Poses yoga classes, networking mixers and outdoor concerts. Pinehurst Resort opened a brewery in late 2018 tucked just a few blocks from the resort’s Carolina Hotel. It occupies what was the original village steam plant that once powered all of Pinehurst. Boasting the building’s original brick facade and steel windows, it is now a restaurant and brewery serving craft beers and barbecue. Hatchet Brewing Company opened in the fall of 2019 in downtown Southern Pines. Cypress Bend Vineyards, located in nearby Wagram, has been cultivating over 30 acres of muscadine variety grapes into 16 table wines since 2005. They host Jazzy Fridays weekly under a bigtop, with musical guests like The Embers and the Band of Oz. Carthage is also home to a winery, Black Rock Vineyards, with a tasting room open four days a week. James Creek Cider House harvests 65 varieties of apples in Cameron to create signature small batch that they sell across the state at select bottle shops, farmers markets and locally at area wine shops, pubs and restaurants.

20.HR.001 Lifestyles Special Section.indd 1 1/7/20 9:33 AM YOUTH ACTIVITIES

If your family is into athletics, there are a host of choices available for kids of all ages. Southern Pines, Aberdeen and Pinehurst have thriving recreational departments offering seasonal sport leagues. Additionally, AC Sandhills, a privately run sports league, supports recreational and traveling club soccer, volleyball and . The Sandhills Optimist Club offers fall football and spring baseball for ages 6-13, while the Sandhills Lacrosse League has a local travel lacrosse team for high school boys who wish to play at a competitive level. The O’Neal Swim team is a year-round competitive swim team for all ages. Football players are primed for the Friday night lights through the Sandhills Patriots youth league. Aspiring young golfers can join programs like US Kids Golf which is headquartered at Longleaf Golf Club in Southern Pines or First Tee of the Sandhills. Moore County is also home to the National Athletic Village, which offers athletic adventures ranging from youth rugby and programs to dance classes, strength training, archery, summer camps, hiking trails, futsal programs and everything in between. NAV is a membership facility that includes a performance gym. Finally, there are a handful of local dance studios, some offering classes to children as young as 2 years old, like Terpsichore and Carolina Performing Arts Center in Southern Pines, and others that compete at a high level at national competitions including nine-time national champions Seven Lakes Dance. Sandhills Academy of Gymnastics has been home to competitive gymnastic teams for close to 30 years, but it’s probably best known for its Friday Night Fun Gym.

72 www.moorecountychamber.com MILITARY MilitaryLife

The southern half of Moore County is linked by location to an important and growing population of men and women in the US Armed Forces. Part of Fort Bragg is in Moore County, and Pope Army Airfield is only a few miles south of Moore County. Camp MacKall is another training facility used by Special Forces that borders the southern tip of the county. Fort Bragg is one of the largest military installations in the world.

www.moorecountychamber.com 73 Photo courtesy of U.S. Army/Fort Bragg

Photo courtesy of The bases are the perfect distance away; far enough so that county U.S. Army/Fort Bragg residents aren’t disturbed by daily training exercises, but close enough for a quick and easy commute. That leads many military families to move to Moore County. For decades, a significant number of retired military families have also chosen to settle down in Moore County. It’s not only a great setup for military families, it’s great for the local economy too. The county’s close proximity to several military bases allows for several local defense industries. In 2014, Moore County businesses made 108 U.S. defense contracts, equivalent to more than $35 million, an increase of 48% in the number of contracts awarded and a 36.6% increase in the total dollar value. Along with the continued support of the Moore County Chamber and Moore County’s Partners in Progress, local defense industries continue to grow and thrive. The North Carolina Military Business Center, www.ncmbc.us, and MatchForce, www.matchforce.org, are valuable resources available to assist local companies with military business opportunities. The local defense industries bolster the economy to a valuable extent. Military spouses are also busy working and volunteering in the community, and a number of them have started new businesses. R.Riveter is a prime example; They use military excess materials to fashion a host of high-end leather and fabric designs like handbags, purses, wallets and such. They have a retail store in Southern Pines, and sell their unique creations Photo courtesy of across the country via the web. U.S. Army/Fort Bragg Retired military members are also making an impact on local business- es. Spartan Blades is a national award-winning maker of high-end utility and collectable knives owned by veterans. As the military population continues to grow, their impact on the local business landscape will as well. As a way of saying thanks to our troops, several local businesses offer military discounts. Moore County has local chapters of Military Officers Association of America and Sentinels of Freedom, organizations whose mis- sions are “to provide life-changing opportunities for men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces who have suffered severe injuries and need the support of grateful communities to realize their goals and dreams.” Several military appreciation events are held each year. Our close proximity makes it easy for military men and women to serve their country during the day, and come home for dinner at night. Many grow to love Moore County while in service, and decide to stick around for retirement or to start new businesses. There’s not a much better place to be stationed while serving in the US military.

Golfing

Golf is and will continue to be the aspect of life in the Sandhills that echoes around the world. In addition to the U.S. Open Championship returning to Pinehurst No. 2 in 2024, there will be thousands of other tournaments played on its greens in the meantime. Hundreds of thousands of people come to the area from across the world for the sole purpose of savoring the renowned courses in America’s “Home of Golf.” With more than 40 courses, most of them semi-private, there is a fair test for every player’s level, and a favorite hole, view and course from every visit. Pinehurst No. 2 is on every golfer’s bucket list. Golf contributes greatly to the local quality of life because those visitors stay in hotels, eat in restaurants and shop while they are here. There is an old saying in the sport, “If you play golf, you are my friend.” Golf has been a friend to this area for more than 100 years, and the sport, more than any single thing, put Moore County on the world map. www.moorecountychamber.com 75 GOLFING Area Courses Pine Needles Lodge and Golf Club Southern Pines Golf Club 1005 Midland Rd. 290 Country Club Cir.

76 www.moorecountychamber.com The Great OUTDOORS Outdoors Gardens & Wildlife Areas Outdoor activities in Moore County are as abundant as they are diverse. There are recreational park facilities for children, and lush gardens for those looking for a pleasant place to walk and relax. For residents that want more rigorous outdoor experiences, Moore County has trails to be hiked and rivers to be conquered by canoes and fishermen. Sandhills Community College Horticultural Gardens house one of the most beautiful areas in the county. Their winding walkways guide residents through almost 32 acres of gorgeous plant life and shrubbery, all of which fall under 14 unique garden themes. The community college highlights historical significance by lining the trails with information about the county’s most treasured botanical feats. The garden is also maintained by the college’s landscape gardening program. It’s a popular spot for family pictures and weddings, and serves as a relaxing spot to get some peace and quiet without fully embracing the natural allure of the outdoors. For a vigorous trail-run, or some entertaining bird-watching in the area’s glorious longleaf pine trees, head to the natural area at Weymouth Woods in Southern Pines. It spans almost 900-acres and was North Carolina’s first natural area. Its focus is sustaining and promoting plant growth and wildlife rather than facilitating recreational activities like camping and fishing. Weymouth offers weekly trail tours, as well as special events for wildlife enthusiasts, such as guided bird-watches.

www.moorecountychamber.com 77 OUTDOORS

Perhaps the most popular outdoor area in Moore County is Southern Pines Reservoir Park. Exercise runs rampant around the reservoir’s 95- acre lake. The man-made trails are great for bikers and runners who want challenging terrain. Residents can get exercise on the lake, too. Kayaking is easily accessible, and fishermen can canoe on the lake for some quiet pole reeling. The ongoing Deep River Trails project hopes to establish a series of cycling routes connecting the reservoir to eight other counties, spanning over 350 miles of trails. There are several other lakes in Aberdeen, Carthage and Whisper- ing Pines that are open to fishermen and kayakers. Head north towards Robbins to kayak and canoe down Bear Creek, Cabin Creek or the Deep River, which also offers river races during the year. Equestrian & Public Parks Those looking for something more competitive can check out one of the 18 Moore County public parks. Most have playgrounds for children, as well as public sports facilities for those interested in baseball, disc golf, soccer, tennis and more. Several of the county’s municipalities have leagues and teams for adults, and the Moore County Recreation Department ensures kids a place to play and be active through their teenage years. Not only were the Sandhills made for excellent golf, they were made for excellent horseback riding too. The equestrian opportunities are both high quality and expansive. The most recent large-scale development is the Carolina Horse Park. It offers over 250-acres of national competition venues, and its non-profit status ensures local equestrian enthusiasts preservation of recreational horse land. The park hosted the American Eventing Championship its first three years in existence. It’s the only facility in the mid-Atlantic region able to host multiple competition disciplines at the championship level, and the organization brings an estimated $1.5 million dollars into the local economy. Another prominent local equestrian facility is the Pinehurst Harness Track, which covers over 100 acres of land and has 20 barns. It’s a popular spot for winter training because it has sand and clay tracks, which also make it conducive to host other types of events, such as dog races and .

Farmers Markets Ecological developments during the past several years have pushed local economies to “go green.” Moore County recognizes the value of such initiatives, and has implemented several plans to support this transition. The county’s Farm to Table cooperative has expanded, partnering with local farmers to not only bring fresh produce and goods to consumers, but to local restaurants as well. Farm to Table has already brought together over 1,200 county residents who subscribe to receive produce that’s gathered from at least 30 local farmers. A new initiative is called Farm to Institution, and the goal is to encourage local restaurant owners to use the same produce in their kitchens that consumers enjoy using in their own. This, combined with Moore County’s already active farmers markets, creates local environmental awareness that enables a healthy lifestyle and supports the local economy.

Blessingof the Hounds For the past 100 years, fox hunting and the Moore County Hounds have been a fixture in Moore County, fixed in the local culture almost as long as golf. Author James Boyd is credited with starting the hunting practice and subsequent “Horse Country” that developed after he built his home, Weymouth, and invited friends and colleagues to come down and build farms to winter their horses. Now there are dozens of majestic farms in the area around Southern Pines. A unique annual event called the Blessing of the Hounds is ceremoni- ously performed in a large field just outside of Southern Pines as a prelude to a hunt. Riders dress in their best red and black coats, with horses groomed and fitted with their shiniest saddles and tack. Several thousand people at- tend, some tailgating for hours, as the horses and dressed riders prepare to take off. The Moore County Hounds is a privately owned pack of dogs that board nearby. On Thanksgiving Day, the dogs get the blessing, and the visitors get a beautiful vision of a time lost to most.
