Every December, kids grab a rope and haul a giant Yule log on a vintage sled through a tiny downtown. A high school band leads the way, and everyone sings as they go. Then the log is placed into the Memorial Yule Log Fireplace and ceremonially lit as part of a tradition dating back to 1949.

Crouse and the Last Year of World War II

Today is Veterans Day, a day set aside for all who have served in the United States Armed Forces. In 1945, while the gins still ran, the churches held services, the stores stayed open, and families went about the daily work of Crouse, the Lincoln County News carried short notices about sons and daughters of the same households who were overseas. The names that appeared in those columns belong to the families whose houses, farms, and businesses have filled earlier installments of this series. The war news and the community news arrived in the same paper.

Mecklenburg County buying 56 acres for park, housing in northwest Charlotte

Mecklenburg County commissioners quietly approved a $12 million purchase this past week of more than 55 acres for parks and housing at 400 Radio Road in northwest Charlotte. Why it matters: That's sizable acreage, near Sunset Hills Golf Course, that will eventually be turned into multiuse sports fields and mixed-income housing, two things Charlotte needs. Plans for the site have yet to be designed, so details are scarce and there's no timeline, a county spokesperson told Axios. Between the lines: Commissioners approved the purchase from Charlotte Broadcasting, LLC almost unanimously following a closed session. Commissioner Elaine Powell, a staunch parks advocate, cast the lone "no" vote. She told Axios she didn't approve of the funding method because it "depleted" the money available to acquire top priority properties. Half of the purchase price will come from Environmental Leadership Plan dollars. The land is appraised at $3 million, according to county records , a quarter of the purchase price. But the county says an independent third-party appraisal valued the property at $13.1 million.

What's the big deal about Charlotte street vendors? See what led to new sweeping ban

After more than a year of debate over Charlotte street vendors — from taco stands to sidewalk artists — city leaders made a sweeping decision this week: street vending is now banned, except in designated marketplaces that require a permit. The Observer’s Nick Sullivan reported the City Council voted 8-1 on Monday , with rule-breakers now facing $500 fines. Why has this been such a contentious issue that split business owners, residents and vendors themselves? How NoDa became ‘turf war’ over Charlotte street vendors Much of the controversy centered on NoDa, where vendors have long been part of the neighborhood’s artsy identity — and increasingly, part of its friction. The Observer’s Mary Ramsey reported last summer that business owners said the problems grew serious enough to threaten their livelihoods . Chris Wade, operations manager at Cabo Fish Taco’s North Davidson Street location, told the Observer in June 2025 that vendors blocked sidewalks, pulled away paying customers, cooked food without health inspections and sometimes engaged in “turf wars” that have turned violent. Wade pointed to a 2023 shooting outside his restaurant — an incident that left two people hospitalized on a busy Friday evening — as a turning point in the
