Last weekend (Aug. 22-24), the City of Charlotte hosted the 49th Annual Summer Conference of the North Carolina Association of Municipal Clerks at the beautiful Ballantyne Hotel. There was record attendance at the annual conference with approximately 167 registered city, town, and village clerks from across the state. This year’s conference theme was “One Person Can Make a Difference,” and in keeping with that theme, attendees demonstrated just that... Each year, the host clerk is asked to identify a local community service project that conference attendees can support with contributions. City Clerk Stephanie C. Kelly chose Classroom Central, an organization dedicated to supporting teachers and students in need by providing free school supplies and essential teacher resources. Kelly is pictured alongside Deputy City Clerk Billie Fruit-Tynes with the generous donations from conference attendees. Thank you to everyone at the International Institute of Municipal Clerks - Region 3! #IIMC #IIMCRegion3 #NCAMC #MunicipalClerks #CommunityService

Recognizing a void in the American pastry landscape, Fry decided to combine his love for chocolate with his love for Charlotte and start #PastryCon, which he hopes will stay here in for years to come. Get to know Fry and Tonia Bryant of Sweet Peony Wedding Cakes, who will be competing in one of PastryCon's many competitions, in our exclusive interview. Want to learn more about PastryCon?
