From the MyWeaverville blog. Some nice news bits:
Weaverville’s Richard Fireman was one of two individuals given the 2009 Grace D. Lee Peace Award last month at Warren Wilson College. The award is given in honor of the late Grace Lee of Montreat, in recognition of “unheralded sojourners who have advanced the cause of peace.”
Weaverville’s Jeffrey E. Pott had a photo selected as the Picture of the Day by Astronomy.com. Take a look.
Weaverville’s Crystal Roberts won the American Farm Bureau Federation’s 2009 Collegiate Discussion Meet. Roberts, a student at North Carolina State University, earned a $2,500 scholarship from the CHS Foundation.
