"I know Roho" is a phrase coined by many throughout the years in our community. Rogelio Tinoco or Roho as he is better known. started out as a delivery driver for a hardware building store in Randleman. For years he had dreamed of opening his own store to call his own and with his boss soon retiring he figured it was now or never. With the many years of experience he has accumulated and the love and support of his friends and family his dream became a reality. In 2013 he opened up a small store in Randleman, NC, named Rohos General Store. When the store first opened it started out small with some hardware tools and landscaping products. We realized that the thought of expanding was inevitable as the community around us began requesting construction materials such as lumber, shingles, and much more. Our store grew to a tremendous size thanks to our community and we are glad to be a part of it in helping it grow too. In 2022 it was decided that it was time to expand to a second location in Liberty, NC. We hope to have the same level of trust and support in each other with the community in LIberty that we have earned in Randleman. Both stores are stocked with items such as hardware, plumbing, and electrical supplies and a multitude of construction materials such as lumber, masonry blocks, shingles and much more. We hope that you'll come

Preserving African American History

The town of Siler City got a colorful new addition with this beautiful Mural. The mural was painted in honor of the original African America store owners. And what a perfect time to paint the history of these buildings durning Black History Month. All of these amazing painters are A&T students or Alumni. I had the pleasure of speaking with Darlene Mcclinton and she shared with me her passion of providing opportunities to aspiring artist to get out and do what they love and making a career of it. She is giving them the opportunity to do what they love in life.

Hi Everyone! Save Our Staley

We had a great meeting last night at the Staley Fire Dept. There were several new faces and visitors that came, interested in the information, and concerned for their community and the surrounding communities. Any kind of development does not only affect the land on which it sits, but also the surrounding areas, for miles. This would be affecting the quality of life for many who might not realize it.

One thing that made an impression on the committee is that many people, outside of Staley, are concerned and are hungry for more information, and to know what they can do to help.

We announced the winner of the 50/50 raffle, and even though being present was not required, we were so glad that it was someone present at the meeting!

House Representative Neil Jackson and Senator Amy Galey were present at the meeting as our guests by invitation. We greatly appreciate their efforts to come and listen to the concerns of our community.

We also appreciate County Commissioners David Allen and Kenny Kidd for making the effort to stop by after another meeting they had a prior commitment to. They also stayed and spoke to several memebers of our community.

We passed out a flyer that has our County Commissioners information on it, along with some helpful points, to encourage everyone to call or email them- and politely, short and sweet, - inform them of the opposition to a quarry coming to the area and the desire to preserve our area as rural, agricultural, and residential.

We will post a recap of the information of our community meeting from Thursday, Feb 09, 2023 within the next few days.

God Bless you all!!
