There’s a plain white building on the edge of Marion that doesn’t look like much from the road, and that’s exactly the point. Somewhere between the gravel lot full of pickup trucks and the front door sits a breakfast so good it’ll make you forget you ever trusted a chain restaurant with your eggs.

Newly rebuilt McDonald's near Cleveland Mall holds grand opening
In the parking lot of the newly rebuilt McDonald's on East Dixon Boulevard, sunlight glinted off golden tubas as the sound of Shelby High School's marching band warmed up, its music mingling with the chatter of a small crowd Tuesday, Nov. 10. Roughly 125 days after the former McDonald's building was demolished, a brand-new restaurant has taken its place near the Cleveland Mall. In attendance at the ribbon cutting and grand opening were three county commissioners, the Shelby High marching band and chorus and the Crest High School Air Force Junior ROTC. The interior of the new restaurant features bright yellows and reds, representing ketchup and mustard, and there is a designated window for mobile orders and deliveries to free up the drive thru. Kiosks have been installed for ordering and people can also use their cell phones to make table orders and have it delivered to their table. Brad Kimrey, chief operating officer of Ice Age Management, which owns and operates the restaurant, said the process to begin tearing down the old building and rebuild started about two years ago, but the actual demolition and construction took just around four months. Kimrey said the previous building was around 45

Shelby dedicates monument during annual Veterans Day event
As country singer Lee Newton sang "God Bless the USA," Cleveland County veterans, leaders and elected officials slowly unveiled a granite monument honoring those who served in the military before a crowd gathered at Uptown Shelby's historic Court Square on Tuesday, Nov. 11. The monument, which recognizes veterans from each branch of service, was dedicated during the annual Veterans Day program. The memorial, inscribed with "Dedicated to all who served in times of war and peace," features several plaques, including one depicting the iconic photograph of U.S. Marines raising the American flag atop Mount Suribachi during the Battle of Iwo Jima in World War II. At the bottom it displays the message "All gave some — some gave all." Following a parade, the unveiling kicked off with American Legion Post 82 presenting the colors. All of the veterans in attendance were recognized and a moment of silence was held for POWs. Kevin Gordon, chairman of Cleveland County Board of Commissioners, gave a brief history of what was initially called Armistice Day and later became Veterans Day.
