FROM THE OFFICE OF STEVE JARVIS
Dear Friends,
It’s been an exciting week in the world of politics!
I hope that you were able to get out and be a part of the election process by March 5th. I enjoyed visiting at the polls and
seeing so many friendly faces.
The results of the primary were eagerly awaited on Tuesday
night. Polling sites were able to report numbers quickly. Several run-offs will take place on May 14th, so stay engaged!
The Opportunity Scholarship application window deadline has passed. A final tally on how many applications
were received should be out soon. Notifications of awards will be sent later in April for many, and others will know more
in May or June.
This week is the Severe Weather Preparedness Week. The National Weather
Service in Raleigh has put together daily topics that will be addressed in detail from March 3rd-March 9th. As I have mentioned
before, now is the time to be informed and take action before storms arrive.
The NC Dept.
of Agriculture would like to recognize your farm if it has been in your family for 100 years or more.
Century Farms, while small in number, are relevant and impactful on the farming communities in our state.
Welcome to Boone, a four-legged member that has joined the Davidson County Fire Marshal’s Office. Thanks
to Boone’s superior sniffing skills, our area will benefit from his expertise when it comes to solving fire-related
crimes.
Congratulations to two of our finest local residents, for very different accomplishments.
The NC BBQ Hall of Fame inducted its first nominees. Wayne Monk of Lexington BBQ made their list!
Chief Deputy Bryan Jacobs of Davie County Sheriff’s Office proudly accepted awards for his 25 years of service and
achieving an advanced professional certification. Let’s celebrate both of these successful men!
If you feel like supporting a good cause and getting your recommended 30 minutes of daily exercise, you can still register
for Mocksville’s Shamrock Run on March 16th. If you run fast enough, the leprechauns won’t get you!
Until next week, thank you for making so many ordinary moments, extraordinary!
If you have concerns, or questions, you can reply to this newsletter, email, or call my office at
(919)
733-5743.
I also take time each day to personally call citizens in our district
to listen to their concerns. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve you!
