Thoughts While Shaving

Cooler temps remind us it’s October, 2017, a wonderful time of the year!

Special events are planned for weekends, check our Events page.

Municipal elections are 5 weeks away, interesting races in some of our towns.

Keep hurricane victims in Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico in your thoughts and prayers.  Many from our area are actively involved in recovery efforts, especially NC Baptist.  Friends closer to home, some areas of Robeson County and the Fair Bluff area, are still dealing with the damage left by Hurricane Mathew.

September 2017 was not a record breaking month, but rock-solid.  October 2016 is the best month in the history of BladenOnline featuring news related to a hurricane, crime and election news.
