CHARLOTTE NORTH CAROLINA
9 CITY GUIDE
Welcome to Volume 9 of The Scout Guide Charlotte. Whether you are a visitor, newcomer or longtime local, we invite you to join us in celebrating the exceptional local businesses who call our Queen City home. On the pages that follow, you will meet the entrepreneurs, taste makers and artists who have followed their passions and share a very special commitment to supporting our community. It is our hope that this book, and the beautiful images within, will inspire you to discover the many layers of our beautiful city and connect with the business owners on a deeper level. We would like to extend much gratitude gratitud e to all of the businesses that grace these pages. Thank you for being the pillars of our community and supporting the network that allows this guide to thrive. The process of putting this special book together is a true labor of love, and we wouldn’t be here without the support of our businesses and our amazing photographers. Browse it, display it, share it with wi th family and friends – but, most importantly, use it. Thank you for helping us celebrate the BEST of Charlotte,
