Dear Mint Hill Residents,

It is the time of year when many of us are spending our weekends traveling back and forth to the beach.  It is imperative for each of us to be fully prepared in the event of a hurricane.  I strongly encourage you and your family to develop a plan, wherever you may be.  The threat from hurricanes to you and your family can vary widely depending on your location.  It is not just those along the coast that can experience significant impacts.  Hurricanes bring many hazards to our area as well.  In the event of a storm, pay close attention to local media and weather forecast.

Last week on our social media you may have noticed a new feature called Mint Hill Fun Fact Friday.  Throughout the summer we will be sharing a Fun Fact about Mint Hill every Friday.  Until last week, I had no clue Elvis had a connection to Mint Hill.  I cannot wait to see what we will learn in the coming weeks.  I understand we have a lot of interesting information to share with you over the coming weeks.

We had a great turn out at our June Family Fun Night.  It was great catching up with so many of you.  Renee and I enjoyed seeing all the families and kids running around having a great time.  The weather held out and it ended up being a beautiful evening.  Our next Family Fun Night is scheduled for Saturday, July 10^th featuring the music of Shelley Ruffin & the Hoodies.  The band features almost every genre from pop, soul, rock, Americana, country, and blues all with a bit of southern soul.  You do not want to miss this one.

We have several events planned for 2021.
