The North Carolina Rural Infrastructure Authority approved more than
$4 Million in grants for local communities, including projects in Davidson and Rockingham counties.  In Lexington, a $250,000 grant will help transform a currently vacant building into the U.S. hub for Supreme Nonwoven Industries. The company plans to create 50 jobs, with 34 jobs tied to the grant.  In Reidsville, a $400,000 grant will support the reuse of a 125,000-square-foot building for Talalay Global, a mattress manufacturer.  That project is expected to create 52 jobs.  The two projects represent more than 100 new jobs and more than $1.2 million in private investment.  https://www.wfmynews2.com/article/news/local/new-jobs-coming-to-rural-triad-communities-through-state-grants/83-7f4abec4-e79b-4b59-9eef-2fc7ac9b6d80

As Drought Conditions persist across North Carolina, a local well driller says more home and business owners are discovering a problem many rarely think about until it happens: their wells are running low on water.  Newer wells tend to be less affected due to the fact that regulations require newer wells to be deeper, which allows for more water to be available even when conditions are dry.  While Homeowners cannot control rainfall, they can take steps to reduce stress on their wells by conserving water.  It’s recommended that you limit outdoor water use, avoiding unnecessary irrigation and pay especially close attention to signs that a well may be struggling.  https://www.wfmynews2.com/article/news/local/drought-conditions-lead-to-increase-in-dry-well-reports-across-the-triad-water-supply/83-cb3386e5-bf0f-4ce4-8db7-bd0f87e37381

Wanna’ Save on Gas? – Try Cruise Control! – NOT in the City, of course, but definitely on the Highway.  The Steadier Speed allows your engine to “acclimate” (if you will).  A Cooler Engine not only offers less wear and tear, it Saves Gas.  For even Further savings consider dropping your speed when traveling, which by the way has not only been proven to save Gas—but fees on Speeding Tickets as well!
