Betsy is coming! Betsy is coming!
May 30th is the day, 11:00 'til 2:30 the hours, for the reenactment of Betsy Dowdy's famous 1775 ride from Currituck to Hertford, bring word to General Skinner that the British were moving to take Great Bridge.

Join us for this very special America 250NC event celebrating our nation's 250th birthday, and the part our local colonists played in the struggle for independence.

Betsy should arrive on horseback around 12:00 or 12:30 (horses can be notoriously independent themselves when it comes to time!), but reenactors, exhibitors, and vendors will be on hand throughout to give you a sense of what life was like in Revolutionary Carolina.

Join us Saturday, May 30 for this free America 250 NC event!

Pursuant to North Carolina General Statute 105-322, The Board of Equalization and Review will come together on Monday, the first Monday in May, and run until the first Monday in June. If you wish to be heard before the board for any reason due to your home's value, size, year built, or any reason, those times are the times to be heard.

You can be heard in my office any time, and if we can't come to an agreement, the formal times are again, the first Mondays in May and June.

Thank you,
Bill Jennings.
