🎬 ⚾ Cabarrus Brewing Company to Host Inaugural CabCo Summer Movie Night

Contributor: Jamie Richardson

Cabarrus County residents are in for a treat this summer as the first-ever CabCo Summer Movie Night takes place on July 8th at Cabarrus Brewing Company. With free admission, games, snacks, and the featured movie “The Sandlot,” this event aims to bring families and friends together for a memorable summer evening. 

• The pre-show activities, starting at 7 pm, will set the stage for an unforgettable evening. Attendees can enjoy family-friendly music from the 80s and 90s, play retro video games, and indulge in popcorn and Kona Ice before the movie begins.

This event is made possible through a collaboration between the organizer, Emory Rice (Aurora Star Lit Cinema), and Cabarrus Brewing Company. Emory, inspired by his family’s tradition of hosting gatherings, envisioned an event where people could come together to enjoy themselves, relax, and have fun.

Even more events are planned for later in the Summer!

Uncover Local History with the "Miles for Museums" Passport Program

Contributor: Jamie Richardson

The "Miles for Museums" passport program is a fun and educational initiative for the whole family. This passport program encourages people to explore the area's museums and communities, offering an exciting opportunity to discover local history and win prizes along the way. The program operates on a simple principle: visit museums, collect passport stamps, and become eligible to win prizes.

• Completing the passport, by collecting stamps from all ten museums, makes each participant eligible to enter the raffle at the end of the summer. Each museum in the program has also partnered with local businesses to offer discounts and incentives to passport holders.
