This weekend will be a busy one in Bladen County. Many events are set to take place, including the Dublin Peanut Festival Pageant, a triathlon at the Grand Regal in White Lake, “Patriot’s Day” at Moores Creek, and more.
This weekend also marks a dark day in history. Tomorrow, Saturday, September 11th, marks the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks that shook the nation to its core.
Although it is a sad day, it is an opportunity to remember those who were victims, and thank those who serve to protect. A community gathering and patriotic service will take place on the Bladen County Courthouse Lawn tomorrow, September 11th, at 7 pm. For more information, read more: bladen-county-remembers-20th-
Additionally, a free country music concert featuring Parmalee will take place at The Grand Regal at White Like on Saturday. Saturday’s lineup will include Garrett Biggs, RT Johnson, and Parmalee. The concert will benefit White Lake Police and Fire Departments. Recently, more musicians have been added to the concert line up. The Grand Regal has added a concert on Friday night featuring the band Riggsbee Road.
Here is additional information from a previous article:
