SUMMARY: The growing demand for animal shelter resources in rural North Carolina is being addressed with the construction of a new 12,000-13,000 square foot shelter in Edgecomb County. The new facility will replace the current 2,500 square foot shelter, allowing it to house three to four times more animals. The shelter, which has been in planning for decades, will help meet the increased need due to the county’s growth and serve as a backup during natural disasters. The $4.9 million project has been supported by community fundraising and county contributions, with a ribbon-cutting planned for next year.

It’s been a community effort to raise funds for the shelter, and with some help from the county, the now $4.9 million dollar project is underway.

SUMMARY: President Biden and First Lady Jill Biden delivered pies to first responders and called military units worldwide, expressing gratitude for family and peaceful transitions. He also spoke to three Americans recently released in a prisoner swap with China. Vice President Harris participated in charitable meal preparations ahead of Thanksgiving. Meanwhile, rainy weather dampened parades in New York City, where protesters briefly halted the event, leading to 21 arrests. Other cities like Philadelphia and Chicago experienced their own parades, with snowy forecasts in New Hampshire and a winter storm anticipated in Upstate New York, prompting preparations by the National Guard.

Some areas hit with snow, some with rain and winds and all regions will be bitterly cold for a long stretch.
