Nash County is joining Operation Green Light

The Nash County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a resolution Monday supporting Operation Green Light for Veterans, a national initiative that recognizes military veterans and raises awareness of the challenges many face after returning to civilian life. The resolution was presented by Nash County Veterans Services Director Anthony Rogers, who urged the county to join communities across the nation in showing support for veterans and their families. Operation Green Light, an initiative of the National Association of Counties and the National Association of County Veteran Service Officers, encourages residents, businesses and local governments to display green lights in the week leading up to Veterans Day. The display from Nov. 4 through Nov. 11 is a visible symbol of gratitude and support for those who have served in the armed forces. The resolution cites the sacrifices made by military personnel, the stress many service members experience during the transition to civilian life and the continuing role veterans play in their communities through civic organizations, public service and volunteer work. Following the presentation, commissioners offered their appreciation to Rogers and highlighted the ongoing needs of veterans throughout Nash County. Nash County Commissioner Wayne Outlaw thanked Rogers for both his military service and

Letter: A strategic leader who can make things happen

We hear many negative ads on most candidates running for office. Most of them are only half-truths, maybe not even that much. Let me tell you about my friend, the Rev. James Gailliard, who recently won election in the N.C. Senate District 11 contest. I first met James in 2017, the day after he announced he was running for the N.C. House. I found him in a small office in the bowels of the church. I shared with him a spreadsheet with the breakdown of the voters. I was very impressed with his story. Ten years prior he had 14 members of his church. He raised the money, took an abandoned Home Depot store and turned it into a church that now has more than 3,000 members across the country as well as internationally. He told me his future vision for the church, and 10 years later, his vision has come true with a beautiful, modern sanctuary, a TV control room that allows him to transport his ministry across the globe, a workout facility and classrooms. James has built a modern, growing church. His sermons touch every person in the church, and he calls it like it is. There is

Annual Ride of Honor returns for fourth year to celebrate veterans

The 2026 Ride of Honor slated for today is set to feature numerous motorcyclists taking a route from Flying Iron Harley-Davidson off North Winstead Avenue into the Nash County countryside and through small towns before returning to the motorcycle dealership. The motorcycle ride is going to be the fourth such event. The purpose is to celebrate veterans and to help raise funds for nonprofit veterans-focused initiatives in Nash County. Mary Ann Knarr-Avery, the founder of the event, said she is pleased with how the ride has grown through the years. “I’ll tell you, when we started out, we only had a few people helping put this together,” Knarr-Avery said. Now, Knarr-Avery said, “We have an amazing team of people,” including ambassadors, a group of alumni and community leaders providing support. “And so, I see us continuing to grow,” Knarr-Avery said. “Every year, it’s a little bit better.” Knarr-Avery also noted that the Ride of Honor has grown to include what is called Project Built for Honor. Project Built for Honor resulted in what Knarr-Avery said is an approaching completion of transforming, in stages, the interior of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2057 off N.C. 97 southwest of Rocky Mount.
