Adiós. Au revoir. Auf Wiedersehen.
No, I am not leaving the Greater Fayetteville Business Journal, but I am going on a long overdue vacation!
Hello dear readers, this is my roundabout way of announcing to the community that starting on July 4, any and all calls to me may incur international charges. I will be on a cruise ship to Alaska and Canada. While I was originally a tad bit offput by the many salmon themed excursions, I am now looking forward to some well deserved R & R and having absolutely no access to my email, work calls or texts messages.
In another world, I would also be chucking my phone into the ocean, but that time has not yet come. I leave you in the very capable hands of our Assistant Editor Stephanie Meador, and our new Special Projects and Events Manager Ellie Rhoades. Please feel free to reach out to them at editor@bizfayetteville.com.
In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this recent issue including a look at the newest restaurant to join Murchison Road, The Ville Wings & Bar. I was given the inside scoop to help announce it to the community and I was able to attend the grand opening on June 24. As we get ready for the Fourth of July holiday, I hope you’ll also keep in mind some fun upcoming attractions such as the Haymount Truck Stop’s inaugural burger competition (page 10) and the new Trolley Pub coming to the area (page 13). Also for anyone interested in government contracting, the North Carolina Military Business Center has announced its upcoming webinars through December of 2025, so make sure to check those out on page 5!
I hope you all have a happy Fourth of July holiday! I’ll see you in mid-July.
Happy reading!
