The Buckinghams Performing in Brunswick County
by Marybeth G. Cale
The power of good music. How is it that a single song or guitar riff can transport us back to an entirely different period of our lives? All it takes is a certain melody in the background and there we are, back at the high school prom or dancing on our wedding day or driving around in our first car.

Vote For Your Favorites in Northern Brunswick County
by Michelle Macken
“Go green” seems to be the catch phrase for the 21st century. Green habits often save you money, which is always a plus, but especially so in today’s economic climate. By making small green efforts, we can improve our health and life as well.

The Leland We Don't Know: Connecting Newcomers to Leland's Past
by Marimar McNaughton
Old Leland echoes the town’s history, whispering its secrets — Post Office, Old Mill, Old Village, Old Fayetteville. These relics of a bygone time still hold the place that the founders of this up-and-coming crossroads mapped out on parchment. A vintage roadbed for horse and carriage followed the trajectory of a train line that brought goods to the hamlet established in the late 1800s. A pair of old thoroughfares linked this waterfront village and its currents to the trading post, the steel rail and the hub of commercial trade over the river to Wilmington and through the woods to Fayetteville.
