Local Leaders Planning Town Hall Meeting In Henderson Tuesday, Sept. 3

Downtown Henderson is the backdrop for a community meeting scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 3 and Charles J. “C.J.” Turrentine Jr. wants to spread the word to encourage attendance.

“We’re going to do a Town Hall meeting in Henderson – something that’s never been done before,” Turrentine told WIZS News.

“I’m encouraging…my generation and a lot of the Black community to come out,” he said, adding that the gathering is free and open to all, regardless of party affiliation.

The community meeting will be held at Southern Charm, 200 S. Garnett St. from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The meeting, he said, is designed “to break the barrier of Republican and Democrat, black and white.”

State Rep. Frank Sossamon is scheduled to take part in a question-and-answer session. According to a flyer publicizing the meeting, participants can place written questions in an issue box for Sossamon and others to answer.

“It’s going to be a great time for our community,” Turrentine said.

Junior Woman’s Club ‘Sip, Snap & Shop’ Event Oct. 30

 

Join in the fun for “Sip, Snap & Shop” later this month as the Henderson Junior Woman’s Club brings the annual fall shopping spree to downtown Henderson.

The event will be held from 1 p.m to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 30 at Southern Charm, according to Club President Amanda Ellis. There will be 30 vendors participating to give shoppers a wide variety of items to choose from.

In addition, Lydia Crouse Photography will be on site to offer a mini fall photo session for $20. And Sarah Walker, nurse practitioner and owner of Oak City MedAesthetics, will also be on site to provide $60 medical dermaplaning sessions. Dermaplaning is a gentler, yet deeper exfoliating process than microdermabrasion and can be incorporated into your shopping day in 30 minutes, with no downtime.
