Greetings! On behalf of the Lake Norman Chamber of Commerce and our approximately 950+ active business members, it is a pleasure to welcome you to the Lake Norman region. Nestled on the banks of beautiful Lake Norman, our lake towns offer the perfect opportunity for both visitors and newcomers to enjoy the lake-living lifestyle of Cornelius and Mooresville, the small-town college charm of Davidson, and the vitality of Huntersville with its abundant shopping W.E. “Bill” Russell, CCE and recreational facilities. Lake Norman, located just outside President Lake Norman Chamber of Commerce of Charlotte, provides visitors and newcomers with a window to the past and an eye to the future. The lake is home to the land where the Catawba Indians once walked and the early European settlers made their stand. Today, it is home to vibrant business parks and retail centers. New neighborhoods have emerged and families have relocated to the region, making Lake Norman one of the fastestgrowing regions in the country. Our proximity to the cultural opportunities of Charlotte, mixed with the charm and lake-living lifestyle of

Personal Watercraft Law The N.C. General Assembly enacted a personal watercraft law that took effect Dec. 1, 1999. On June 30th, 2000 this law was amended. Below is a summary of the law: Who Can Operate a PWC? • Anyone 14 years old but younger than 26 can operate a PWC if: • They have successfully completed an approved boating safety education course (proof of age and safety course completion must be carried during operation) - they are riding with a person who is at least 18 and is in compliance with the Boating Education Requirement Law (G.S. 75A-16.2) • It is unlawful for the owner of a PWC to knowingly allow a person younger than 16 to operate a PWC unless they have first completed an approved boating safety education course. • It is unlawful for anyone who has temporary or permanent responsibility for a person younger than 16 to knowingly allow that person to operate a PWC unless they have first completed an approved boating safety education course. PWC Operation • No one can operate a PWC on state waters between sunset and sunrise. • All PWC riders, passengers and those being towed must wear approved personal flotation devices. • If the PWC is equipped with a lanyard-type engine cut off switch, the lanyard must be worn by the operator at all times. •A PWC must have a rearview mirror or an observer on board besides the operator to legally tow someone on skis or similar device. • PWCs must be operated at all times in a reasonable and prudent manner. Maneuvers that endanger people or property constitute reckless operation. • No person shall operate a personal watercraft on the waters of this State at greater than no-wake speed within 100 feet of an anchored or moored vessel, a dock, pier, swim float, marked swimming area, swimmers, surfers, persons engaged in angling, or any manually operated propelled vessel, unless the personal watercraft is operating in a narrow channel (see below). • No person shall operate a personal watercraft in a narrow channel (see below) at greater than no-wake speed within 50 feet of an anchored or moored vessel, a dock, pier, swim float, marked swimming
area, swimmers, surfers, persons engaged in angling, or any manually operated propelled vessel. • No person shall operate a PWC towing another person on water skis or similar device unless the total number of persons operating, observing, and being towed does not exceed the number of passengers identified by the manufacturer as the maximum safe load for the vessel. Reckless Operation Includes: •U nreasonable or unnecessary weaving through congested boat traffic. • Jumping the wake of a vessel within 100 feet of the vessel or when visibility is obstructed. • Intentionally approaching a vessel in order to swerve at the last moment. • Operating contrary to the "rules of the road". • F ollowing too closely (see below) to another vessel, including another personal watercraft. Renting PWCs •N o one shall rent a PWC to someone under 16 unless that person meets the conditions in the section "Who Can Operate a PWC?" • A minimum of $300,000 insurance must be carried on each PWC that is rented to the public. Narrow Channel • A "narrow channel” means a segment of the waters of the State 300 feet or less in width. Following too Closely The term "following too closely" means proceeding in the same direction and operating at a speed in excess of 10 miles per hour when approaching within 100 feet to the rear or 50 feet to the side of another vessel that is underway unless that vessel is operating in a narrow channel, in which case a personal watercraft may operate at the speed and flow of other vessel traffic.

Happy Birthday, Lake Norman Fifty years ago the creation of Lake Norman changed the area forever By Lori K. Tate, Photography Courtesy of Davidson College

Great Lake Living at Lake Norman
The other day I mentioned to a friend that the lake was turning 50 this year. My friend, who does not live in the Lake Norman area, looked at me as if I were mad and proceeded to ask how a lake could have a birthday. Immediately I explained how Lake Norman was indeed a manmade body of water, a fact many people, even ones who live here, don’t realize. The formation of Lake Norman began in 1963, but plans were in the works long before then. In the early 1900s, James B. Duke, William S. Lee and Dr. W. Gil Wylie envisioned how a series of dams on the Catawba River could literally power the South’s future, in particular the Carolina Piedmont’s future. Cowans Ford Dam was built by Duke Power (now Duke Energy) on a historic Revolutionary War battle site. Ground was broken on the project on September 28, 1959. Four years later the dam was completed with a length of 7,387 feet, which includes more than a mile of earthen dam. The concrete portion alone is 1,279 feet long and 130 feet high. Bill Lee, the grandson of William S. Lee and the chairman of Duke Power Company at the time, led this engineering feat. While the complexity of the project seemed at times A Product of Lake Norman CURRENTS Magazine

As power continues to flow from Lake Norman, so do its memories. staggering, not to mention the emotional impact on the community as two river crossings (Sherrill’s Ford and Beatty’s Ford) would be flooded in addition to many original homesites, Lake Norman was the result of a dream (60 years in the making) come true. Often referred to as “The Inland Sea,” Lake Norman offers 520 miles of shoreline (more than North and South Carolina’s coasts combined) and is named for Norman Atwater Cocke, a retired Duke Power president. For years, Lake Norman was a weekend getaway destination, as people in the Piedmont would flock to cabins along its shores to get away from every day life. In 1964 Duke Power offered more than 2,600 cottage sites with leases starting at $120 a year. Eventually subdivisions were established, and folks began to live on Lake Norman’s shores full time. Though people started realizing how beautiful and satisfying lake living was, heavy development didn’t take off until the 1990s, as the Charlotte area’s thriving business environment brought more people to the area. While Lake Norman has more than lived up to its powerproducing expectations, it has also transformed what was once a heavily agricultural and textile community into more of a resort area that attracts a variety of people from around the world. On the north end of the lake, you’ll still find many agricultural pockets untouched by development. If you hit it on the right day, you might even discover a cow or two soaking off the shores of Catawba County. The southern part of 2013-14

the lake attracts many people who make their living in nearby Charlotte. When traffic flows, you can travel from your office in Uptown Charlotte to Lake Norman in approximately 30 minutes. Not many urban areas offer a lakeside respite so quickly. As power continues to flow from Lake Norman, so do its memories. Ask around and you’re likely to find someone who was around when the lake filled. They’ll remember the Robert E. Lee, the first tour boat on the lake; the 85-pound catfish that won the state record; Outrigger Harbor, the original marina that stood where The Peninsula Yacht Club is today; and

A River Runs Through It Lake Norman’s faith community welcomes all
I love Lake Norman. Years ago when I lived in Black Mountain, North Carolina, I’d often use Route 73 as a favorite path to meet our daughter who lived in Charlotte at the time. Out of the corner of my eye, I’d spot that lake and try to see as much of it as I could while staying between the lines. Little did I know then that eventually this lake would be my home, and it’s a good place to call home. I’ve met people who have lived here a long time. One of my favorites was a man named Knox (lots of Knoxes here), and I’d say to him, “You’ve seen lots of changes in this area since the lake arrived, haven’t you?” With a twinkle in his eye, he’d say, “Bill, I liked it better when a river ran through it.” His comment made me think of a favorite book and later a movie, A River Runs Through It. Author Norman Maclean wrote about his father who was, “a Scot and a Presbyterian.” He went on to observe, “As for my father I never knew whether he believed God was a mathematician, but he certainly believed God could count and that only by picking up God’s rhythms were we able to regain power and beauty. Unlike many Presbyterians, he often used the word beautiful.” Beautiful is an appropriate tag not only for a river in Montana or a river turned lake in North Carolina but also for the people who live here. There is a rich beauty radiating from the residents of Lake Norman. In the late spring and summer I will often walk to Lake Norman from our home. I go to a favorite “landing” and engage in one of my favorite pastimes — watching people. As the sun goes down, they pull into the dock — boats of all proportions, from Jet Skis to little skiffs to boats that are the envy of NASCAR. They carry people big and small; young and old; black, white, red and yellow; each one with a story to tell and most with a smile on their face. The diversity of boats carrying a diverse people on a lake through which a river runs is a fitting etching that only God can paint. The beauty of a place and the beauty of a people have a common thread in a wonderful God who creates. Here is a place where people can worship God from their own tradition — be it Judaism, Muslim, Catholicism, Protestantism or a host of other faiths. At first glance they seem broad, unbounded and diverse, but if you carefully notice, there is a river which runs through them that only God can create.

where to shop There was a time when you had to venture into Charlotte for anything fashion related. That time has long passed with the proliferation of various shopping districts throughout the Lake Norman area. Now you no longer have to sweat the I-77 traffic for a pair of Tory Burch flipflops or a Trina Turk dress. It’s all right here. You just have to know where to look. We’ll begin at Exit 18, where you’ll find Northlake Mall, filled with every chain you could want from Macy’s to Anthropologie to Ann Taylor to Belk. Surrounding the mall is a selection of big boxes, including one of Mecklenburg County’s two REIs. If you can’t find what you need at this exit, you might want to rethink what you need. Exit 25 brings you to Huntersville, where you’ll find Lowe’s, Target and Kohl’s, along with Birkdale Village, a mixed-use shopping center that serves as the unofficial town square. With a nice mix of fun local shops (Molly Malone’s and Poppies) and chains (think Banana Republic, Gap and Talbots), Birkdale offers a pleasant shopping experience even for those who don’t enjoy shopping. Stop by on Friday or Saturday evenings during the summer for the Mingling on the Green Concert Series, where you can enjoy a variety of live music at the center fountain. Three miles north at Exit 28 is Cornelius, which is peppered with quaint shops up and down Catawba Avenue. Keep your eyes open for home interior shops that offer one-of-a-kind accessories to make your nest even cozier. Davidson, Exit 30, offers a Norman Rockwell take on downtown shopping, complete with a bookstore and a Ben & Jerry’s. Be sure to stop by the Davidson College Store on Main Street for all your Davidson College gear. It’s always a great day to be a Wildcat. Downtown Mooresville (Exit 33 and 36) also offers an old-fashioned shopping experience with a true hardware store, a cozy gallery and shops. West of I-77 in Mooresville, you’ll find any big box store you need, including Best Buy, Michael’s, Old Navy, Super Target, Staples, Walmart and more. Throughout the Lake Norman area there are plenty of mom and pop shops eager to please with personalized customer service and an inventory of specialized items. During recent years various campaigns have encouraged residents to shop local whenever possible. So the next time you find yourself looking for that perfect gift or pick-me-up, remember to shop local.

your table to upscale eateries showcasing memorable regional specialties. In additional to longstanding fish camps that were the norm when the lake was a weekend getaway, diners can now find the cuisine of many cultures. Menus featuring Mexican, Latin American, Caribbean, Japanese, Chinese, Thai, Italian, Greek, Irish and Indian join all manner of American cuisine. The waters of the lake inspire relaxing and fun-filled times, and that mood carries over into many restaurants. More often than not, diners are casually dressed, children’s favorites are offered and prices are affordable. Many places also have outdoor seating, so you can enjoy your meal and the fresh air when the weather is favorable. Following a national trend, more and more chefs in the area are building relationships with local farmers and visiting farmer’s markets to secure fresh, inseason ingredients for their menus. Diners can taste the difference.

Simplicity rules as chefs balance flavors and textures with creativity. Cheeses for appetizers, greens for salads, seafood and poultry for entrees, vegetables for side dishes, and fruits for cobblers are just a sampling of what can be found. These restaurants take pride in not only serving the freshest ingredients available but also in supporting the community. A walk through pedestrian friendly Birkdale Village in Huntersville will tempt your taste buds with a smorgasbord of dining options. You’ll feel like you’ve hit the jackpot with casual restaurants offering Asian fusion, wood-fired pizzas, Mexican street fare, upscale burgers and traditional American favorites, and an upscale restaurant specializing in steaks and seafood. Ready to dress up a bit for dinner? Fine dining options around the lake are limited, but those that do set a dressed-up table with white tablecloths and candles offer stellar menus that are worth the care you took with your attire. Whether tucked in a shopping center or occupying a restored downtown building, you can expect the
atmosphere to be cozy and intimate, the service to be efficient, and the food to be well prepared without being fussy. Simplicity rules as chefs balance flavors and textures with creativity. North Carolina is noted for its barbecue, and the lake area is home to several ‘cue joints that have legendary followings. Slow-smoked pork with sauce served in squeeze bottles on the side is the way to go. Don’t forget to try a side of Brunswick Stew or mac and cheese, and a serving of banana pudding for dessert. For taste buds yearning more

international flavors, Asian fusion, sushi and Thai cuisine are well represented. Watch as your meal is prepared on a hibachi grill with great flair at a Japanese restaurant, see how high your spice tolerance is, or simply be adventurous and try a new sushi roll. A day of water-skiing or just cruising the waters of the lake can leave one hungry, and fortunately, there are nearly a dozen restaurants just steps away from the shoreline. Ease those hunger pains with menus offering everything from oysters and ribs to Italian and contemporary fare. Most are ultra casual with a laid-back atmosphere where live music fills the air. There’s no better way to end the day than by grabbing a seat at a table on the deck and enjoying a fantastic sunset with a burger and cold beverage.

In addition to its amazing vistas, its friendly locals and, of course, its fabulous water activities, one of Lake Norman’s best features is its close proximity to attractions throughout the Carolinas. Mountain, beach and shopping destinations abound in North and South Carolina — all are well within driving distance of Lake Norman. And although no Lake Norman resident worth their salt is just itching to leave their lakeside haven, everyone can use a change of (even the best) scenery every once in a while. Whether you want a quick jaunt a couple of hours up the Blue Ridge Parkway or a leave-your-caresbehind retreat to one of the many beaches along the Carolina coast, Lake Norman is perfectly positioned as a home base for all manner of Carolina adventures.
Asheville
Drive Time: 2.5 hours
Asheville is western North Carolina’s largest city and serves as the business, cultural, shopping and dining hub of the mountains. Asheville is known across the world for being a mountain gem. The arts are alive and very well in Asheville. The city is located in the heart of the Blue Ridge and is known for its natural beauty. The Blue Ridge Parkway, which brushes Asheville, is a favorite of motorists each October when the trees begin to turn. The historic Biltmore Estate sits on the city’s outskirts and is a favorite destination for those who love spring flowers and beautiful holiday decor.
Boone
Drive Time: 2 hours
Boone is another North Carolina mountain destination Lake Norman residents can easily reach for a fun day trip or long weekend. Some of the Blue Ridge’s highest peaks are located in the Boone area. It’s another favorite for those interested in viewing the beautiful fall foliage. Many bed and breakfasts also beckon visitors year round. The city is home to Appalachian State University. And come the holidays, dozens of Christmas tree farms open for business, so families can pick out the perfect tree and make lifelong memories in the process. Charleston is considered by many to be the South’s cultural capital.

Charleston
Drive Time: 3.5 hours
Few destinations anywhere are as splendid as Charleston, South Carolina. Make one trip to this charming Southern city and you’re sure to be back. Charleston is located on the coast and is considered by many to be the South’s cultural capital. Dining in Charleston is world class, and the city’s dozens of restaurants offer Lowcountry menus that simply can’t be beat. Taking a walk in downtown Charleston is like taking a walk back in time. Beautiful gardens sit wedged between historic pastel homes — many of which were built before the Civil War (which started in nearby Fort Sumter). Beachgoers are also at home in Charleston. Folly Beach, Isle of Palms and Kiawah Island offer a variety of fun for those wanting to hit the sand.
Myrtle Beach

And if you’re a golfer, few places can offer more than the Myrtle Beach area does all year long. More than 14 million people visit Myrtle Beach each year. Families love the carefree summertime atmosphere the beach offers, but with amusement parks, theaters and nightclubs in the mix, there’s truly something for everyone in Myrtle Beach.
Seagrove
Drive Time: Just under 2 hours
Seagrove is known across the Carolinas for its pottery. Seagrove itself is a tiny town in North Carolina’s Randolph County. But together, along with several nearby towns, Seagrove is considered by some to be the pottery capital of the United States. Pottery here dates back to before the Revolutionary War, and it’s still celebrated today. The North Carolina Pottery Center is located in Seagrove and offers visitors

Drive Time — Hickory: 45 minutes Drive Time — High Point and Thomasville: 90 minutes
Washington D.C.: 6 hours 20 minutes; 393 miles
North Carolina has long been considered the furniture capital of the United States, and no three cities are more tied to furniture than Hickory, High Point and Thomasville. Despite recent trends toward moving production overseas, some of the best-known brands in the furniture industry remain headquartered in these three cities. In fact, some of the most extravagant furniture you’ll ever see moves through the area. A drive through the heart of Hickory on Highway 321 shows just how many outlets still sell locally made goods. High Point hosts a twice-a-year furniture market that attracts thousands of industry buyers from all over the world.

I’m going to fill you in on a little secret. Despite the fact that I can get to Charlotte in about 10 minutes from my home in Huntersville, I don’t venture past Exit 18 very often. Honestly, I don’t really need to, as my daily needs can be met right here in Huntersville. Simply put, the town has everything we need to keep our pantry stocked, the clothes in our closets updated, and recreational and educational needs met. When we zeroed in on Huntersville almost 10 years ago after relocating for my husband’s job, we loved the fact that to get to our home off Beatties Ford Road, we had to pass a

It brought us Northlake Mall, Discovery Place KIDS, new shopping centers, restaurants and grocery stores (we especially love Earth Fare and its Kids Eat Free Night on Thursdays). The past several years have been filled with memories from carnivals and festivals such as A Huntersville Christmas, weekly trips to the North County Regional Library, windowshopping at Birkdale Village, birthday parties at area businesses, and connecting with nature at Carolina Raptor Center and Latta Plantation with its hiking, canoeing and just good old-fashioned playing in the dirt.

As the kids grow older, they will have opportunities to compete and train for numerous road races and triathlons held right here in our town. We also have nearby Rural Hill to keep us entertained with the Scottish Festival and Loch Norman Highland Games, Food Truck Rally, and Sheepdog Trials and Dog Festival. When we want to attend a professional sporting event, theater performance or concert, we are lucky to be able to make the short drive into Charlotte. But for the day-to-day activities, we can’t think of a better place than Huntersville to raise our family.

When I walk down the streets of my beloved Mooresville today, the beauty of our fair town strikes me. The little public garden with the lovely crepe myrtles to the many large planters filled with seasonal flowers give visitors and natives alike a sense of well-being and the feeling that the people of Mooresville really care about their town. It is difficult for me to walk down the street without seeing someone I know. And it is virtually impossible for me to meet someone without giving them a friendly, “Howdy.” There aren’t

During the summer months, we are blessed to have our town’s summer concert series under the stars on the town green. It was during one of these that I was privileged to have met and talked with the legendary Billy Scott as he entertained us with his award-winning beach music. Mooresville has been blessed with so much talent. Dancers, actors, musicians, artists, songwriters, singers, storytellers, and some of us others who dabble in a little bit of everything, spend our time here and would not dream of being anywhere else. It is hard to believe the new businesses that have joined us on Main Street in this past year alone.

Davidson Davidson is heaven for certain people By Tom Cotter
2013-14
A Product of Lake Norman CURRENTS Magazine
When Pat and I moved from Long Island to North Carolina in 1985, we bought a house on the north end of Lake Norman. Not that there was anything wrong with that, but we soon discovered Davidson and promised each other that one day, somehow, we would live there. There was just something special about Davidson, and we wanted to be part of it. The town reminded us of the New England villages we loved to visit. It took us 13 years to put our ducks in a row and make the move, but we’ve lived here 15 years and have never regretted it. There is a certain pride about calling Davidson home, and I don’t believe anyone has ever arrived here by accident. Perhaps it’s the academic environment that makes the Great Lake Living at Lake Norman

“There was just something special about Davidson, and we wanted to be part of it.” town special. Davidson College is the town’s cornerstone, and a cool, collegiate attitude is reflected in many of the town’s activities. The college hosts guest speakers, theatre, concerts and sports that bring the community together. Or maybe the quaint commercial district is what makes the town unique. A downtown that resembles a Norman Rockwell painting consists of a gift shop, library, bridal shop and Main Street Books, the best independent bookseller around (tell Betty and Barbara “hello” for me). Davidson’s downtown is a magnet for visitors who drive from across the region just to stroll and browse its shops. If you walk down Main Street, be sure to read the dark granite plaques embedded in the sidewalk. These acknowledge former businesses that once stood on that site. Davidson once had a Ford dealership, drug store, butcher shop and a dozen other businesses that no longer exist, but this town wisely decided to remember its past. A recent phenomenon is Davidson becoming a culinary destination. The Soda Shop, the town’s iconic burgerand-shake shop (established in 1951), is no longer alone as a number of other dining establishments have moved in to round out Davidson’s food selection. Mexican, European, Italian, pizza, sushi, tavern-style and contemporary American cuisine await

Regional and local farmers and organic food producers sell their products in the parking lots and sidewalks behind Summit Coffee on Saturday mornings. Fresh fruits and vegetables, pastas, breads, and flowers ensure that dinner tables in the Davidson area are stocked with healthy meals. The physical center of town is the Village Green. Nearly every day, folks converge on the green to talk, read, sleep and even practice their juggling. The adjacent public library and downtown’s Davidson Book Garden keep literature and learning in the community’s forefront. Davidson’s homes and neighborhoods have their own special
style. Professors and faculty live closest to the college, and their homes have a proper, stately charm. Many of the homes in the downtown historic district have brass plaques mounted near the front door, which display the year the home was built. Traveling away from the town’s center reveals wonderfully eclectic neighborhoods inhabited by families who proudly call Davidson home. And all these neighborhoods are connected by a terrific series of hiking and biking trails. It is now possible to walk or ride from nearly every neighborhood in Davidson to downtown without commuting along a major thoroughfare. This was one of the biggest benefits that attracted me to Davidson 15 years ago. I am a runner, and normally compete in marathons, half-marathons, 10Ks and 5Ks. The wonderful thing about living in this town is that I am not alone. No matter what time of day or night I go out for a run — winter, summer, rain or sun — I am not the only one pounding the pavement. To paraphrase the town’s welcome sign, Davidson is a biking, walking… and running friendly community. So what makes Davidson special? If I have to explain, you wouldn’t understand.

Filled with live music, rides and food, Denver Days is a fall tradition on the west side of the lake.
Denver Life on the west side By LEE Mccracken

Life on the west side of Lake Norman means beautiful views, great schools and lower Lincoln County taxes. Denver residents are warm and friendly, and the area exudes a small-town neighborly feel. Whether driving west from Huntersville, Cornelius or Mooresville, it’s okay to loosen that grip on the steering wheel and ease up on the accelerator. Things are calmer and slower in Denver, with many remnants of the “good ol’ days” still around, including cow pastures, plantation barns and the historic Martha’s Chapel along Killian Farm Road. The picturesque western shoreline stretches from Cowan’s Ford Dam at the south of the lake to the neighborhood of Sailview at the north.

Denver is home to many talented artists, as well as some mom-and-pop boutiques and shops. Westport Marina offers fun on the lake with boats and personal watercrafts for rent. Denver is home to many talented artists, as well as some mom-and-pop boutiques and shops. The farmers market on Saturday mornings during the spring and summer features fresh local produce and plants, and, of course, Black’s Produce and The Peach Stand delight the community with the season’s flavors. Stop in at the local community library, where the staff knows everyone’s name and the last book they checked out. While Denver doesn’t have a downtown or central gathering area, people find their “center” in the neighborhoods where they live, and the churches and organizations to which they belong. In August, churches gather for a week of fun and fellowship at the Rock Spring Camp Meeting, which dates back to the late 1700s. And Denver Days in September beckons everyone with live

rallying to support the East Lincoln High Mustangs and North Lincoln High Knights. Lincoln County Charter School (K-12) is burgeoning, too, with new buildings and some 400 students enrolled in its high school. Privately owned eateries are a tradition in Denver, even though some chains have been moving in. Everest Grill and Sports Page restaurants are popular places year round for all ages, as are Stacey’s Restaurant (especially for breakfast) and Safari Miles for steak and a bloomin’ onion. New development brings shopping options and decent prices to the west side of the lake — from ALDI, Lowe’s and Super Walmart to the cheapest gasoline in the area. The completion of N.C. 16 to four lanes makes the 30-minute commute to Uptown Charlotte a breeze. While not situated at the base of the Rocky Mountains, this Denver is a wonderful place to call home.

I always imagined how fun it would be to live at Lake Norman while I was living in Charlotte as a 20-something. When I was stressed, I would drive to Ramsey Creek Park and write in my journal while the sound of the water soothed me. As a child I grew up frolicking on the shores of nearby Lake Tillery, so I was no stranger to how fun and peaceful lake living could be. Lucky for me I married a Cornelius native, and we eventually made our home here. At first my husband worried that I would be homesick for The Queen City, but now he’s the one who has to talk me into making the trek down I-77 to Charlotte for special events. Don’t misunderstand me. Charlotte is a fine city, but the truth is that I have everything I need right here. I grew up in a small town, so it’s important to me to know Great Lake Living at Lake Norman

“I love to revisit history through the antiques at Oak Street Mill.” my neighbors and my community. The size of Cornelius and the friendliness of its people make this an easy task. It’s rare that I don’t run into someone I know at the local Harris Teeter or at the always fun ‘Tawba Walk Art Crawls. People constantly want to know how you’re doing and how they can help if you’re not doing well. What makes Cornelius special is how it successfully marries downhome goodness with sophistication. This is a town where churches and fire departments still hold annual barbecues and where members of the Rotary Club cook pancakes to raise money for noble causes. It’s also a place that offers the type of luxurious amenities that attract the likes of corporate leaders, as well as professional athletes. Not many places can do both well — Cornelius does. Then there’s the variety of things to do here. In Cornelius I can take my children to an open arts session at The Community Arts Project downtown, get my abs in

My 3-year-old twins adore the new Robbins Park with its nature-themed playground and open-play meadow. And despite how young they are, they too
appreciate how glorious a Lake Norman sunset can be, as they often spot it before I do. Whether you’re on a boat or on the shore, it will take your breath away, and it’s never the same. As for me, I try to paddleboard as often as I can, and when I’m not in the water, you can find me searching for treasures at Ashley Carol Home & Garden, Bebe Gallini’s or Fifi’s Fine Resale. When I have extra browse time, I love to revisit history through the antiques at Oak Street Mill. All four of these places are locally owned, and you can bet the clerks will remember your name if you visit more than once. I’m happy to raise my children in such a nurturing and vibrant environment, and I’m even happier to call Cornelius my home. Looks like my hunch about living at Lake Norman was right. Lori K.

Driving over Lake Norman on I-77 on a clear and sunny day, it’s difficult not to turn your attention toward the boats drifting across the water. But while boating is a popular and fun pastime in the area, it’s only one of many recreational activities the residents here enjoy. Here’s a look at what adventures await you, rain or shine, cold or warm weather. If you want to spend time outdoors, Lake Norman is fortunate to have a great public park system, countless trails for biking and hiking, and parks with plenty of recreational fields and playground equipment. In Cornelius, Ramsey Creek Park is a 43-acre waterfront park with boat-launching areas, docks and a fishing pier. There are also three picnic shelters, horseshoe pits, a volleyball court, a three-acre dog park, playground and nature trails. Visitors can rent large “funbrellas” to utilize on the large,

waterfront picnic area, and there is also a slice of beach perfect for lounging (no swimming allowed, though). Another popular destination for those who love to spend time outdoors is Jetton Park in Cornelius. The 105-acre park has a beach area, wooden gazebos, a formal garden and a playground. There are also eight tennis courts, and paved walking and biking trails, most of which wind through nicely shaded wooded areas. For a small fee, visitors can rent waterside picnic decks equipped with a grill and a table. In Troutman, there’s Lake Norman State Park, an ideal place to enjoy the area’s natural beauty and go running or mountain biking. The 1,328-acre park includes 13 miles of shoreline along the northeastern shore of Lake Norman. There is a 125-yard beach and public swimming area, which is supervised by lifeguards seasonally, as well as a

It features four miles of biking trails with enough terrain for different skill levels. There’s also a 2.5-mile walking trail on site. In Huntersville, visit the Latta Plantation Center and Nature Preserve, situated on more than 1,000 acres on Mountain Island Lake. There, you’ll find an equestrian center, hiking trails and the Carolina Raptor Center, where visitors can observe more than 25 species of raptors living along a Raptor Trail with a self-guided tour. Also in Huntersville, Blythe Landing offers 26 acres of fun with floating piers and boat ramps, the Dockside Café, a beach and playground, picnic areas, and sand volleyball courts.

Judging by the large number of conference and state championship banners that hang from gymnasium rafters at the high schools surrounding Lake Norman, it’s safe to say that student athletes are a strong breed. They tell the story of hundreds of individual and team victories dating back generations, and they set the bar high for the future generations of sporty standouts who wear the colors of the Vikings, Titans, Huskies and Panthers, not to mention Eagles and Patriots. The 2013 calendar year marks the 100th year of the North Carolina High School Athletic Association’s existence, and no area school has topped the standings for the prestigious Wells Fargo Cup more than North Mecklenburg High School. The Vikings have won the NCHSAA’s award given annually to the North Carolina high schools with the best overall interscholastic sports programs in each of four conference classifications close to 20 times. Offering 19 sports for boys and girls, the Vikings have a tradition of athletic excellence that dates back to the 1950s. In the fall of 2001, Hopewell High School opened its doors to help alleviate the needs of a growing community in northern Mecklenburg County. Titan athletic excellence quickly followed suit. Hopewell now offers 21 individual and team sports for its students, including the increasingly popular boy’s and girl’s club-level lacrosse teams. Basketball has led the way for the Titans. The 2007–2008 Hopewell boys basketball team captured the first-ever conference championship in school history, and several recent standouts now start for a handful of nationally ranked NCAA Division 1 college basketball programs. Davidson College’s men’s basketball forward and Hopewell alum, De’Mon Brooks, was named Associated Press 2012 All-America Honorable Mention, was voted the Southern Conference Player of the Year by the league’s coaches and was named the Most Outstanding Player of the SoCon Tournament for leading Davidson to its 11th tournament title and NCAA appearance. The Harvard Crimson qualified for their first NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament since 1946 thanks to the standout play of junior guard and Hopewell alum, Brandyn Curry. William A. Hough High School opened in 2010, and in Hough’s first full athletic year, the Huskies captured three I-Meck conference championships and have recently added an additional six titles to their collection. The Huskies are again 4A State Champions in Women’s Swimming and Diving, and their prowess in the pool is second to none. Dozens of Husky student-athletes fill the rosters of numerous I-Meck Conference All-Conference rosters, and many graduates now compete on NCAA scholarships. Athletic excellence isn’t just confined to the area’s public high schools. SouthLake Christian Academy, Davidson Day and Lake Norman Christian are among the private schools with outstanding athletic programs. The SouthLake Eagles are wrestling state champs; Davidson Day’s Upper School football program has two state championships plus one undefeated season, and Lake Norman Christian fields strong teams in more than a handful of sports for boys and girls. Youth sports also have a tradition of excellence around the lake, and as the area’s population grows, the variety of sporting programs A Product of Lake Norman CURRENTS Magazine

The future for youth sports looks bright, too, with new facilities and programs in the works.
Softball leagues are popular in the Lake Norman area. available to youth increases, as well. A few standout programs lead the way. The Huntersville Family Fitness & Aquatics Center is the home of the nationally recognized Carolina Diving Academy. Since 2007, CDA has offered a cohesive program from entry-level lessons to national championship finalists. Most recently, five of the six
diving state champions at the 2012 N.C. High School Athletic Association meet were CDA competitors. Soccer rivals basketball as a top junior sport around the lake, and programs like the North Meck Soccer Club and the Lake Norman Soccer Club offer recreational and competitive programs for boys and girls U9 – U19. A strong work ethic, along with dedicated coaching has helped the North Meck Soccer Club accumulate an impressive list of accomplishments dating back to 1987. If it’s lacrosse you want then check out Lake Norman United, an all-volunteer, non-profit organization founded in 2008 dedicated to promoting lacrosse in the Lake Norman area and throughout the Carolinas. Stewarts of the Game is a Christian faith-based sports organization providing baseball, basketball and softball for children ages 6-16. Stewarts
teaches athletic and life lessons as well as age-appropriate fundamentals, sportsmanship and competition. It thrives on the belief that lessons through sports can have a powerful, positive and everlasting impact on the lives of area boys and girls. The future for youth sports looks bright, too, with new facilities and programs in the works. The Towns of Cornelius and Huntersville have recently dedicated athletic parks for public use, and the recreation departments of Huntersville, Cornelius and Davidson offer full schedules of recreational and instructional sports for athletes of almost all ages and abilities. So with energized youth programs feeding high school athletic programs in dozens of fall, winter and spring sports, look for more banners to be raised in the seasons to come and more sporty standouts to emerge.

Great Lake Living at Lake Norman
Sports are never far away from Lake Norman. Sure, there’s golfing, swimming, fishing and boating right at your door step, but if you want to catch NFL football, NASCAR, the NBA, as well as exciting college and minor league sports in person, you don’t have to travel far to see the action. It’s no secret that the lake provides residents with the chance to catch the best competition in the game.

But when the Carolina Panthers joined the league in 1995, and moved into their newly constructed home at Bank of America Stadium, those other cities and their teams became nothing more than chief rivals, while our home town team began building its identity and fans began traditions of their own. Now the games are electric, and the stadium pounds with excitement.
NASCAR
www.nascar.com
NASCAR plays a significant role in the local economy. In addition to the Hall of Fame in Charlotte, many high-profile NASCAR teams are headquartered in state-ofthe-art production shops located in Huntersville, Cornelius and Mooresville, while others aren’t far away. Scores of drivers live on the shores of Lake Norman, and it’s not uncommon to see them either boating on the water or out at local restaurants and shops when they aren’t chasing the checkered flag. Thousands of crew members, NASCAR support personnel and supporting business owners also live and play around Lake Norman, too. When it comes time to race, Lake Norman residents can make a 20-minute drive to Charlotte Motor Speedway to see their favorite teams and drivers in action. The track hosts major NASCAR races in May and October, and smaller races and events almost every other week of the year.
might make a play for bringing the name back to the Queen City in the near future. North Carolina native Michael Jordan owns the team, and the recent changes he made not only in the front office but also on the floor have the 14-year-old team playing competitive ball once again.
Charlotte Checkers www.gocheckers.com
The NHL strike is over, and pucks are again flying in rinks across the Carolinas. The Charlotte Checkers are the region’s minor league hockey team and serve as the American Hockey League affiliate for the Raleigh-based Carolina Hurricanes of the NHL. While the Hurricanes are relatively new to the state, the Checkers name has been associated with Charlotte hockey teams since the 1950s. Today’s team plays its home games from October to April at Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte.
Charlotte Knights
www.charlotteknights.com
If you’re in the mood to see tomorrow’s Major League Baseball stars today, then a short trip down I-77 is all you’ll need to catch a Charlotte Knights game. But it won’t be long before the Class AAA affiliate of the Chicago White Sox has a new home for its International League games. Yes, ground has been broken for an uptown baseball arena where the Knights will play from April to early September.
Charlotte Bobcats
Davidson College Wildcats
Charlotte’s history with professional sports dates back to the 1980s when the city’s first-ever major pro sports team — the Hornets — began competing in an arena just off Tyvola Boulevard. When the team left for New Orleans in 2002 they took the name with them, but it looks like Charlotte’s newest NBA team — the Bobcats —
In the Southern Conference, they say, “There is Davidson then there is everybody else.” Well, maybe it’s just the passionate Wildcat fans who profess this belief, but for Lake Norman sports fans looking for a nearby college team, most everyone agrees that the Davidson College Wildcats boast formidable teams in a

number of college athletics from fall through the springtime. Head Coach Bob McKillop continues to lead the NCAA Division One men’s basketball program, the football team just welcomed alum Paul Nichols as the new head coach, and a handful of women’s teams from basketball and field hockey to tennis and lacrosse dominate the athletic scene at Davidson. The Wildcats basketball teams play home games on campus at Belk Arena and come every March, they are perennial favorites to return to the NCAA’s “Big Dance.” Charlotte native and NBA standout, Stephen Curry, took the Wildcats to the Elite Eight in 2008. Altogether, Davidson fields more than 20 men and women’s athletic teams. Nearly one in four Davidson students participates in varsity sports. Looking for an Olympian on Campus? Junior Caroline Queen represented the United States in Slalom Kayak at the London 2012 Summer Games, and she’s not done yet.
UNC Charlotte 49ers www.charlotte49ers.com
If it’s football you want, then it is football you’ll get at UNC Charlotte. The school signed its first-ever recruiting class in early 2012 and is building a new stadium on its campus in northeast Charlotte. It has plans to start playing college football in 2013, and the inaugural season includes home games against Campbell, Chowan, Gardner Webb, UNC Pembroke and North Greenville. But until football raises the bar, basketball remains the most widely followed sport on campus. The 9,000seat Halton Arena is located inside the Barnhardt Student Activity Center and is the home to the Charlotte 49ers men’s and women’s teams, which compete in the Atlantic 10 Conference. Soccer fanatics know the 49ers know how to score when it counts. The men’s team advanced to the 2012 NCAA Division One Final Four. Great Lake Living at Lake Norman

Lake Norman’s golf courses challenge every type of golfer By Mike Savicki

Great Lake Living at Lake Norman
With 80 golf courses forming a network between Charlotte and Statesville, you might think the area is saturated with an overabundance of tees, fairways, bunkers and greens. If you are looking for one single area that combines the open ocean layouts of the Carolina coastal courses, the hilly mountain layouts of the highlands and the tree-lined layouts of the courses that fill the Sandhills around Pinehurst, then look no farther than Lake Norman. Need proof? Just ask Donald Trump. The real estate mogul recently completed his purchase of the lake’s newest and most exclusive country club — formerly known as The Point — and has renamed it Trump National Golf Club Charlotte. Promising many changes to the Greg Norman-designed course, including longer holes, redesigned bunkers, plus upgraded amenities and a more exclusive look and feel to the Nantucket-inspired village center, Trump is showing golfers that its course selection as much as club selection, that matters in the game. Several other private courses are also keeping pace, as they afford golfers the luxury of living and playing in the same neighborhood. The Peninsula Club in Cornelius, NorthStone Country Club in Huntersville and River Run Country Club in Davidson combine golfing excellence with strong neighborhood identity. The Peninsula Club joins Trump National with unmatched water views, while River Run and NorthStone boast the classic North Carolina look of rolling terrain and tree-lined fairways. Recreational golfers can also find challenges and instruction on public courses. Mooresville Golf Course combines a Donald Ross-designed front nine that opened in 1949 with a Porter Gibson back nine that opened in 1977. Mooresville Golf Course is also home to First Tee Lake Norman, a program that provides learning facilities and educational programs that promote character development and values for young people through the game of golf. Birkdale Golf Club in Huntersville combines the look and feel of a private course with the affordability and appeal of a public facility. The Arnold Palmer-designed public course offers a state-of-the-art lighted practice facility, including a driving range, short-game area and putting green, as well as group and individual instruction by PGA professionals. It’s convenient to the interstate and within walking distance of the popular Birkdale Village shopping complex. And courses such as Cowan’s Ford Golf Club in Stanley and Westport Golf Club in Denver have tweaked their layouts and upgraded their facilities to attract new members, while others, such as Pine Island Country Club in Charlotte, have undertaken multi-million dollar renovation projects to create an entirely new look and feel.

Recreational golfers can also find challenges and instruction on public courses. Year-round programs and leagues exist at most courses for men, women, juniors and seniors of all abilities. At River Run, David Ross, director of golf, has established a well-respected junior development program that currently has a handful of juniors well on their way to earning full college scholarships. And the area’s golfing calendar is also full of spring, summer and fall charity events that allow golfers to test their skills on courses they might not otherwise have the opportunity to play on their own. In fact, when Ross first came to Davidson in 1990 to open River Run Country Club, golf at Lake Norman was still in its infancy. A handful of established courses dotted the landscape, and few programs existed to help golfers elevate their game. Thanks to Ross, as well as a host of other top-notch area teaching
Year-round programs and leagues exist at most courses for men, women, juniors and seniors of all abilities. pros, the Lake Norman area is now developing standout junior, collegiate and pro golfers. Fans of the game don’t have to travel far to see the pros compete. During the first week of May, the Wells Fargo Championship brings the PGA TOUR to Charlotte as top pros compete at the Quail Hollow Club.
And in October, PGA Champions Tour legends such as Tom Kite, Nick Price and Bernhard Langer compete in nearby Conover at Rock Barn Golf & Spa. The Greater Hickory Classic at Rock Barn, which began in 2003 and is played on the Robert Trent Jones, Jr.-designed championship course, includes special events, attractions and three days of fierce competition among golf’s greatest legends. If you want to see if you can beat a Carolina Panther, Charlotte Bobcat or NASCAR Sprint Cup Champion, then grab your bag, make a tee time and keep your eyes peeled. The lake’s courses host celebrities from the world of sports every week of the year. You never know who you might run into on the course or enjoying a drink on the 19th hole. And you never know what challenges await you — no matter which course you choose at Lake Norman.
