Abstract:

After mills closed, jobs left, and in 2004 when the only NASCAR race left at the North Carolina Motor Speedway left, Rockingham, North Carolina seemed to wither. But an old racer bought the empty track at auction in 2007 and now the Rockingham Speedway combines the nostalgia of old NASCAR days with the modernity of the new NASCAR.

Abstract:

Camp Corral in Ellerbe paid a special sort of tribute to the military: a free summer camp for children of fallen or disabled soldiers. Conceived by Golden Corral’s founder as a way to give back to the armed forces, it provides a place to befriend other children of military members, along with the traditional summer camp activities.
