This spring as part of National Open House weekends, we are holding a very special contest – our “Key to Your Dream”. It’s our way of saying thank you to all of the folks who visit our Fonville Morisey-listed Open Houses during the weekends of April 29th, May 20th and June 17th. Visitors need to register online after viewing one of our homes (and should receive a postcard from the participating agent to learn how!).
We could not host this special contest if it weren’t for our sponsors and today, we focus on our Raleigh sponsor – Triangle Green Cleaning, an Indy award-winning company for the past couple of years. Our Digital Media Marketing Director had a chance to visit with them recently.
Take a look at the video below to learn about their philosophy and the many ways they help the community to be “green” through their services.

If you are looking for a fun, relaxing and family-friendly way to spend a Sunday afternoon, then look no further than Wake Forest’s Six Sundays in Spring outdoor concert series held at the E. Carroll Joyner Park Amphitheater. So pack a picnic, put the dog on a leash, and bring a blanket to enjoy what the folks at Wake Forest ARTS have in store!
This year, the concerts will be held every Sunday through June 3rd, and will start at 3 p.m. and last until 7 p.m., which will allow for an opening act as well as a headlining act. This past Sunday featured vintage rock group Phatbread as the opening act and African influenced group The Healing Force as the headliner.
Don’t feel like packing a picnic or cooler? You are in luck; food and drink vendors will be on hand as well as local vendors offering their wares. In case of inclement weather, updated concert information will be available on Community Channel 10 or by calling the Wake Forest Weather Line at 919-435-9569. To stay up to date on all the great things Wake Forest has going on, download the Town of Wake Forest App for your smart phone.
Please remember, park only in designated areas; no alcohol, firearms or unleashed dogs are allowed in the Park. For more information on E. Carroll Joyner Park, please visit the Town of Wake Forest web site.

John Lakota Locklear, 14 year old Native American (Lumbee) of Pembroke, North Carolina was 7 years old, when he started playing harmonica and 9 years old when he picked up his first guitar. He was intrigued by the sound of the slide guitar and wanted to learn to play. About a year and a half later, he bought himself a glass slide, placed it on his pinky finger and has been sliding ever since. Lakota John will perform blues infused with his Native American heritage. Here’s a short video of Lakota John doing his thing -

The Gravy Boys take old-time themes and bring them into the present day with an authentic passion that resonates with all who listen. This concert is sponsored by PineCone (Piedmont Council of Traditional Music) and the Town of Wake Forest.
