Recommendations for a lawyer for a speeding ticket?

I got my first ticket in freaking Spencer. Who is a good lawyer? I got a bunch of crap in the mail.

Updates: I ended up going with Ryan Stowe and he made it not raise my insurance!

Somebody threw a dip on my windshield in Salisbury

Had court this morning (witness), and when I came back out to go home, there was someone's used dip strung out across my windshield. What made it worse was I ran out of wiper fluid too, it only sprayed like 10 drops😮‍💨

Needless to say, I was kind of pissed about that. How's your Monday morning?

Open tracks?

Hello everyone! I live in Rowan county and I’m looking for an open track somewhere to do some running time trials. I’m pretty sure east Rowan high school’s track is closed to the public - so does anyone know of an open track I could run on during the weekends? Thanks!

Salisbury Events

I'm from here, but have lived abroad for a while.

The Salisbury newspaper always has articles about incredible sounding events for the area. The problem though, is that they only post about events after they happen. Is there a more modern piece of media in the area that will keep me informed about all the interesting things happening around town BEFORE they happen? Thanks!
