Pinehurst Resort Opens “Sandmines” on Wednesday of Next Week

Pinehurst No. 10 is set to open next week as Pinehurst Sandmines. The 900+ acre area and known for its significant local history. The golf course is strategically placed on a steep northwest ridge, with its 8th hole on former mine land that once supplied sand across the state, linking the new development with a rich historical backdrop.

Historic Rosenwald School in Southern Pines Recognized on National Register

The National Register of Historic Places has welcomed a school from Southern Pines and nine other sites in North Carolina as its latest additions. Initially established as a Rosenwald School in 1925 to serve African American children, the Southern Pines school expanded into an 11-building complex, reflecting mid-20th-century architectural trends. These buildings symbolize the local educational board's approach to providing equal education in a segregated system. The inclusion of these sites in the register is a testament to North Carolina's ongoing efforts to honor and preserve its historical assets. See details WKML.com.

Town of Pinebluff Town Hall will be Closed on Friday, March 29th.

Spotlight On: Josh Bozeman of 9 Parabellum Stones Media

Did you know Vass has it’s own story-telling genius? We have a hidden gem that’s all about telling stories that matter. It’s called 9 Parabellum Stones Media, and the brain behind it is none other than Josh Bozeman.

Imagine mixing the precision of a military strategist with the eye of an artist; that’s Josh. After hanging up his army boots, he grabbed a camera and decided to make a splash in the world of videography and content creation.

Josh has a pretty interesting background. From psychological ops in the Army to an eye-opening gig with Tesla, he’s seen a lot. But what really got him into starting his own thing was his love for freedom and storytelling. He wanted to use his skills to help businesses and non-profits stand out, and boy, does he deliver. His approach is all about getting to know what you really need and then crafting a story that’s as unique as you are.

Josh and his 9 Parabellum Stones Media are like our local heroes of storytelling. He’s proof that with a bit of creativity and a lot of heart, you can tell stories that really make a difference. For more information about Josh, visit 9psm.com.
