Happy half year everyone! Believe it or not, we are now in June of 2025, officially halfway through the year.
A few nights ago, I was looking over a vision board I had made at the beginning of the year. One of my best friends invited me to a vision board party where I was able to meet new people and get crafty with some scrapbooking paper and a lot of jewel stickers. While it wasn’t something I had ever tried before, it did end up being a great gateway into one of my resolutions to try new things!
Now, six months later I found myself looking over all that I had accomplished. Surprisingly enough, it was quite a bit!
SOME OF MY RESOLUTIONS INCLUDED:
And a few other things I think I can achieve by the end of this year. I still need to learn to make bread, and the second I learn how to make Olive Garden breadsticks at home, that chain is going under.
Now is the time to review your New Year’s resolutions and see how far you’ve come!
I hope you enjoy this issue, I’m so proud of our editorial team and the connections we’ve been able to build in this community. The Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity is working through several channels to address future workforce needs of the construction industry, and their 2025 Construction Camp is one story I’m glad we’re able to highlight on our cover! We also got to know about the new owners of The Coffee Scene which, if you didn’t know, has some slamming gelato and three locations across Fayetteville and Fort Bragg (page 3). We also got the inside scoop on this year’s Juneteenth Jubilee hosted by the always fantastic Cool Spring Downtown District (page 10) and I got to know more about an upcoming internship opportunity seeking businesses to take on student workers this summer. Check out the My Future So Bright Program on page 13!
