On June 4, over 300 students from four area schools in Catawba and Cleveland County listened to numerous storytellers during the Catawba County Historical Association’s (CCHA) 12th annual Storytelling Festival at the historic Murray’s Mill complex in Catawba. Throughout the day long event, students listened to exciting stories from Cynthia Moore Brown (pictured above), Ron Gulledge, Ramona Moore Big Eagle and Wright Clarkson. The goal of the annual CCHA Storytelling Festival is to share the educational and entertaining oral history tradition of the Carolinas and beyond, with dramatic narratives, folklore and tall tales. Jason Toney with the CCHA wanted to thank everyone for attending the annual event, as well as the Texas Roadhouse for donating all of the meals for all of the children in attendance, Mike Sherrill and the Duke Power Volunteer Corps for helping make sure the festival ran smoothly from start to finish. For more information or questions about the Catawba County Historical Association or the Storytelling Festival, call 465-0383, visit www.catawbhistory.org or www.facebook.com/murraysmill.
Hundreds of area citizens came out to Claremont City Park in downtown Claremont on May 29 to participate in the annual Praise in the Park event, which was sponsored by New Life Baptist Fellowship Church in Claremont. The annual event featured ministers from New Life Baptist Fellowship Church and Northside Baptist Church in Taylorsville who spoke during the event, and several gospel groups who performed in the park amphitheater throughout the day. Musical acts that performed, included Charity of 4, Mt. Sinai Church Choir, The Kevin Carter Family, The Reeds, and The Little Disciples Choir from New Life Baptist Fellowship Church. In addition to the fellowship and music, the event also featured a Kids Corner, where children could play various games and jump in a large inflatable play area. Everyone on hand was also treated to free food and drinks during the event.
