Mountains-to-Sea Trail improvements
Photos courtesy of Oak Ridge MST Committee Earlier this month, members of Oak Ridge’s Mountains-to-Sea Trail (MST) Committee put the fi nishing touches on a split-rail fence surrounding the trailhead parking lot on Linville Road. Nearby is a kiosk built by two representatives of Friends of the MST, a statewide organization. When completed, the kiosk will show information such as a map of the trail which runs nearly 1,200 miles from the Great Smoky Mountains to the Outer Banks.
Searching for unmarked graves in Summerfield

Orange markers in the Peace Church cemetery on Scalesville Road in Summerfi eld identify possible graves of slaves, freed slaves and soldiers who died in the Revolutionary and Civil wars. Summerfi eld’s Historical Committee paid for ground-penetrating radar to look for soil disturbances that may signal the presence of unmarked graves, according to a Facebook post by Summerfi eld Peace United Methodist Church last month. Compilation of the readings by the radar contractor will indicate the number of possible graves.

Since opening in Oak Ridge Commons in 2014, Olmsted Orthodontics has created beautiful smiles for patients from 7 to 80 years old in northwest Guilford County and beyond.
A Summerfield native and Northwest Guilford High School alumnus, Dr. Matt Olmsted earned his undergraduate degree from Duke University. After graduating from dental school and receiving his master’s degree in orthodontics from UNC-Chapel Hill, he spent two years in a fellowship program gaining valuable experience working with the popular Invisalign aligners.
Dr. Olmsted has since made his mark as one of the most experienced orthodontists in North Carolina to work with the aligners. He teaches as a clinical assistant professor in UNC-Chapel Hill’s Department of Orthodontics and is committed to staying current on the latest research and advances in orthodontics.
Well respected in his field, Dr. Olmsted was elected by his colleagues to serve as 2019 president of the North Carolina Association of Orthodontists, which has more than 350 members throughout the state.
“We want to give our patients an exceptional experience every time they visit,” Dr. Olmsted said. “They are our guests and we are their home for orthodontic care and more confident smiles.
“We greatly value the one-on-one, face-to-face relationships with our patients and their families,” he added. “We are proud to cultivate those relationships by treating their brothers and sisters and even parents and their children.”
Among Dr. Olmsted’s many local patients is a three-generation family group consisting of a daughter, mother and grandmother.
Because of COVID, Olmsted Orthodontics continues to take extra precautions to insure both its patients’ and staff’s safety.
