 Jason at Tire Max (Stokesdale) for helping me check under and behind my back seats for “Tom & Jerry” mice taking up residence in my car, all at no charge. We didn’t find them but he enjoyed the challenge.  Liberty Wesleyan Church for another awesome fireworks display. It was sorely missed last year. Thanks, from your neighbors on Price Mill Road.  The future PTA President at Northern Elementary.  The Haines family and the Henson

Farms’ neighbors for the thoughtful send-off of our son, Parker, to the USMA at West Point. It meant more to us than you know.  Summerfield residents who do their own research on proposed local development and instead of listening to the very vocal, in-your-face minority and their lies, attend meetings and review the information for themselves!  Towns of Oak Ridge and Summerfield for planning Music in the Park events. Sure did miss these last year, and it’s great to have them back! Love the music and seeing neighbors and others from my work and home community.

 Cyclists who... well, just cyclists.  Homeowners of $800,000+ homes who think they now speak for all of Summerfield. Citizens didn’t want your 140 houses built in their backyards either, but now you want to stop all development. Hypocritical!  Guilford County Schools for its handling of online learning. These students have never been online before and now

Outside the

their GPA has to suffer because of it. I watch my student struggle not only academically but mentally.  Those who are okay with allowing water and sewer in Summerfield. If this is allowed, then apartments, strip malls, traffic and noise will also be allowed. Summerfield will change forever and not in a good way. Keep Summerfield rural!  Employees of the grocery store in Summerfield who park in the first few spots of the rows. Those spots should be for customers.
