WELCOME TO MOORESVILLE

Sights and Sounds year helped make Mooresville the number one place to live in the entire state. We are made up of transplants from across the country and from across the world. The decision to move here is not just based on economics; it’s also based on quality of life issues. These families and businesses are looking at our region as a whole and that includes our school systems. What they see are school systems filled with diversity that embrace the next frontier with new ideas. They say the only thing you can depend on is change. Our area’s success can be linked to its ability to embrace change, its ability to adapt, improvise and overcome in an ever-changing economy. This is just a part of why businesses want to relocate here. For many, the starting of their own business is the beginning of the fulfillment of a dream. The dream of equal empowerment and the appreciation of the individual right to selfdetermination were the starting points to becoming a free nation. Our new nation held promise for those brave enough to walk into the unknown. These early pioneers had a belief in their own abilities as well as their deep and abiding faith in a power greater than their own. Today, there are more than 27 million small businesses in the United States, and each year an estimated 600,000 new employer firms open for business. Are we still brave enough to walk into the unknown venture of starting a new business? Do we possess the qualities of our founding fathers? The facts prove that we do. We are still taking our futures into our own hands and looking to find solutions to today’s problems, undeterred by fear of the unknown. The only limitations we face may be the limitations of our own imaginations.

Our founding fathers are held in high esteem as great leaders, and over the generations of time they have taken on an aura of being above and beyond the average individual. It is easy to assume that special tasks are done by special people. For many, it’s easier to make that assumption because they can tell themselves that it takes someone with unique attributes, extra abilities and powers in order to complete difficult tasks and to make the changes that are important to our community and to this country. There are no special powers needed in order to become a true leader within your community. The most common attributes are accountability, responsibility and KIRK BALLARD the courage to face the challenges ahead. Are our leaders so different from ourselves? In reality they are not. It is the average, ordinary individual, who takes it upon himself to be accountable and responsible, who has the power to make great changes for the better within every community. Each of us has within the power and the ability to complete extra ordinary things. In January, we will come together as a Chamber and as a community to celebrate at our Annual Business Leaders Luncheon the extraordinary accomplishments of ordinary men and women. They are — someone’s husband, someone’s father, someone’s brother, someone’s wife, someone’s mother, someone’s daughter — these are ordinary individuals who take upon themselves the tasks of confronting the issues within our community.

HISTORY

The Making of Mooresville More than 400 years and counting by Lori K. Tate

alk to a native if you want to learn about the history of Mooresville. Yes, believe it or not, there are current residents who were born and raised in this Iredell County town. Andy Poore is one such person. Not only is he a native of Race City USA, he’s also the town historian and archivist, as well as the curator of special collections at the Mooresville Public Library. When asked to talk about Mooresville, he goes right to the beginning to get the conversation started. And what surprises most folks, especially newcomers, is that Mooresville’s beginning dates back the 1600s. Initially what was to become Mooresville began with a community formed around plantations and farms. There were several large families around at the time — the Houstons, the Templetons, the Walls, etc. Most of these families settled in what is now the Mt. Mourne area of Iredell County. “At one point we were called the Community of Deep Well,” explains Poore. “Because Mooresville sits on a natural fault line…there was a deep well that was fed by several springs and creeks. The community came up around that.” The Catawba River also played a part in the making of Mooresville, as it was deep and wide enough to transport cotton up the river on flat-bottom boats. While the northern end of Iredell County focused on cattle and grain, the southern portion concentrated on cotton, indigo and rice.

Like many other North Carolina towns, cotton led to textiles. At first farmers sent their cotton to Charlotte to be processed. Once the railroad came to town, Mooresville could send products to bigger cities, which eventually attracted mills such as Dixie Cotton Mills and Mooresville Mills. However, during The Civil War, the tracks were taken up to keep the Richmond line running in Virginia. In 1882, the tracks returned to Mooresville. John Franklin Moore owned a lot of land in the area and eventually sold part of it so the new railroad could come through. Moore’s family also built the first train depot in town. The Moores were so prominent that the area began to be known as

The Village of Moore. John Franklin fostered a sense of community by building some of the earliest buildings around the town’s depot. Up until then the area was peppered with small stores on personal property, some were even based in homes. John Franklin soon saw the need to evolve from a village to a town, so he began promoting incorporation. In the first meeting of the town’s appointed board, the members selected Mooresville, meaning Moore Village, to be the name of the town. From there, Mooresville started booming and at one time had as many A Product of Lake Norman CURRENTS Magazine

as 14 operating mills. None of the town’s mills closed during The Great Depression, but that doesn’t mean Mooresville wasn’t affected. “People who lived during that time just say everyone was poor, that’s all there was to it,” says Poore. “It didn’t matter if you lived on Academy Street or Mill Hill, you were just poor.” When World War II occurred, Mooresville sent its own off to fight while folks at home did everything they could to help. Three of the local mills won government contracts — Burlington Industries made parachutes, Troutman Shirt Company produced shirts, while Dixie Cotton Mills manufactured pants and socks for the war. The famous American journalist Ernie Pyle wrote about the men from Iredell County in one of his columns. After the war, the mills continue to boom until the textile industry began

FAITH

Quench your Spiritual Thirst

The Mooresville area offers a variety of places to worship by Reverend Steve Sellers

t is truly a pleasure to live in the communities around Lake Norman. Cultural activities abound around this man-made water supply and recreational playground. From boating to fishing, arts to recreation, food to exercise, you can just about find it all around Lake Norman. And, of course, there is the lake. Yet, with more than three billion gallons of water in the lake, you can still find a large number of people in our surrounding communities who are thirsty. Not physically, but spiritually. People who realize they have a deep down, soul thirst. A yearning that cannot be satisfied by secular pursuits, but only in the Divine. Thirst is a natural expression of our basic human desire and need for water. One of the clear indicators that something is wrong physically is when we feel thirsty or dehydrated. It is the same spiritually. To thirst for something spiritual is at the very root of our being. There is good news for those seeking a way to satisfy spiritual thirst in the Lake Norman area. Here you can find quite a bit of spiritual water to satisfy that thirst, and numerous tributaries (places of worship, fellowship and discipleship) from which to drink. Developing

meaningful relationships within our communities, learning about the various “tributaries,” and taking time to meaningfully drink from several of them best discern spiritual water sources. Don’t feel pressure to choose a faith community quickly, especially since you’ll hopefully spend many years nurturing and being nurtured within this community. Take your time and drink deeply. Learn how the community conducts meaningful faith conversations, how it voluntarily supports local and international needs, how its members come together to celebrate faith, and how the community takes care of its own. Don’t forget to take a personal spiritual inventory to determine where you are in your own spiritual life. (There are a number of these on the Internet.) These will help give you a sense of your current spiritualty, as well as a sense of where you might like to grow. Evaluate more than just an initial experience in a new faith community. Consider the ways God is worshipped, studied, served and sung in various faith communities. Ask questions with a sincere desire to understand. Watch for information and advertisements or stories about music,

social service programs or other special events sponsored by local faith communities. Attending one of these special events is a great way to get a feel for the character of a given congregation. Finally, ask others. People in this area are not bashful about talking about their faith communities. Ask your friends, neighbors, colleagues and even strangers. Where do they worship and why? What do they love about their faith community? Now, allow time to soak it all in. Don’t be afraid to visit several different congregations before making a decision. First impressions are important, but they can also be limiting. Go back for multiple visits. Don’t be afraid to ask for time to talk with clergy and lay leaders. Practicing faith in God is a deep and abiding decision. Is the congregation you are considering likely to offer a combination of nurture and support, with challenge and opportunity to learn, grow, be of service to the wider community so that you may become more of the person you are capable of becoming? If so, then you may well have found your new, spiritual home. Reverend Steve Sellers (“Pastor Steve”) is the Minister of Christian Education and Outreach at First Baptist Church in Mooresville.

Mooresville-area schools offer A+ opportunities by Lynn Roberson

Edwards cites MGSD’s schools’ high graduation rates and student accomplishments on end-ofcourse and end-of-grade tests as key indicators of quality. Fellow administrators agree that the success of schools in the Mooresville area can be attributed to outstanding teachers and staff, as well as students who are passionate about pursuing a college education. This combination results in outstanding academic performance time and time again. Of Lake Norman High School 2011 graduates, 430 out of 513 went on to attend four-year colleges and universities. Along with its Advanced Placement, Career Technical Education and Honors Courses, Lake

Norman High School has formed a Visual Arts and Design Academy, a focused learning community. Students can also pursue a business pathway, and the school is developing a digital media pathway, including graphic design. Lake Norman High School was awarded the National Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence Lighthouse award in May 2012. The school offers advisory homeroom time, character education and adviseradvisee initiatives. In addition, the Mooresville Graded School District has earned national accolades as one of the few fully digital school districts in the nation.

Mooresville is also home to the Mooresville Graded School District, which is known nationally for its digital conversion. “When parents are looking at a community, they want schools that have a track record of strong performance, so they will have a sense of assurance that their children will receive a quality education,” says Dr. Mark Edwards, superintendent of the Mooresville Graded School District and the 2013 AASA National Superintendent of the Year.

We live in a time, with the tools, where we can individualize and personalize work for a student.” More than 5,800 students attend MGSD schools, with 1,706 at Mooresville High School.

EDUCATION

The Power of Public School

Iredell-Statesville Schools Superintendent Brady Johnson gives students opportunities for unlimited potential by Renee Roberson photography by Candy Howard

rady Johnson is a man who is truly passionate about education, having spent his entire life involved in the IredellStatesville Schools (I-SS) both as a student and as an educator. He believes in the power of what a public school system can offer, and with the help of innovative programs and federal grant money, has worked hard to give the students in his county every possible advantage — to great results.

A Strong Foundation Growing up in Statesville, Johnson lived with his mother, a single parent who did not have a high school diploma. Realizing how that limited her job prospects, she encouraged her son early on to study hard and do well in school so he wouldn’t face the same obstacles. Johnson says he always enjoyed school, but it was a ninth grade English teacher at South Iredell High School who really influenced him, in addition to his principal, who insisted he go on to college after graduation. After graduating from Appalachian State University, Johnson began his career at North Iredell High School as a social studies teacher. Eventually he wound up back at his alma mater, South Iredell High, and spent the next 21 years teaching there. “I loved my job and looked forward to Monday mornings,” he recalls. “The

kids have a funny way of keeping you young. I had a lot of great students.

The Next Phase After two decades of teaching, Johnson entered the next phase of his career with roles in administration as assistant principal, principal and deputy superintendent. In 2009, he assumed

the role of superintendent of IredellStatesville Schools. Under his leadership, I-SS has received two grants that have significantly impacted the learning potential of the county’s students. The i3 grant — a 45 million federal grant — has allowed I-SS to customize and individualize instruction at the classroom level. “It removes the barriers,” explains Johnson. “We focus A Product of Lake Norman CURRENTS Magazine

2014-15

heavily on assessing students and being very prescriptive with instruction.” The $20 million Race to the Top grant was awarded to only 17 school systems in the nation. Johnson says this grant focuses on the middle and high schools in the district and allows teachers to implement the “blended learning” concept along with a one-toone technology incentive. I-SS is the only district in the country to be awarded both an i3 and Race to the Top grant.

Empowered Learning Johnson feels one of the keys to educational success is to give parents and students a variety of educational choices as early as possible, such as the two IB middle schools in the system, Mt. Mourne School and Northview School in Statesville. He also sees the importance of preparing students —

particularly those in high school — for the opportunity for success after high school. The I-SS school system offers two early college programs with the Collaborative College for Technology in Leadership and Visual Performing Arts Early College, where students graduate

with an associate arts degree from Mitchell Community College along with their high school diplomas. Students also have the choice to attend Career Academy Technical School in Troutman. “We feel like we’re doing a good job of preparing kids for the workplace in the 21st century,” says Johnson. “They leave with credentials that make them more marketable.” This past year, Johnson received the 2014 A. Craig Phillips North Carolina Superintendent of the Year award. But he still refuses to take all the credit for the success of I-SS Schools. “I have had a very supportive Board of Education,” he says. “The part I am most thankful for is our staff. We have a remarkable group of teachers and principals. They are totally dedicated to the concept of education — even in the years since the recession. They are in this business for the right reason.”

HIGHER EDUCATION

Take Your Career to Another Level

You can achieve your educational dreams at any age by Renee Roberson

oday’s job market is more competitive than ever. One way to be on top of your game is to keep your skills sharp. Members of the workforce are constantly seeking educational opportunities to enrich their knowledge and gain the skills necessary to succeed and move forward in their careers. Four-year and graduate degrees aren’t always an absolute in job training and skill building. Educational institutions such as Mitchell Community College and the NASCAR Technical Institute are ready to meet those growing needs. As the Mooresville area continues to grow in both commerce and real estate, these two schools continually expand their offerings and training courses to match the needs of their students.

Founded in 1852 as a junior college in Statesville, Mitchell Community College became part of the North Carolina Community College System in 1973. The Mooresville facility opened in the historic downtown area in 1983 and has undergone two major expansions to help the community college accommodate growth. The community college system is nationally recognized for providing a quality education that is both convenient and affordable. As the cost of an education at a four-year institution continues to rise, many

high school graduates are opting to go to a community college for their first two years before transferring to a university. Unemployed and underemployed men and women are striving to upgrade their skills or are pursuing training for a new career through continuing education. Business, industry and new entrepreneurs are taking advantage of seminars and customized training to increase efficiency and improve profitability. Students work toward degree and certification programs in one of Mitchell’s four academic departments, which include Business, Engineering and Computer Technologies, Humanities and Fine Arts, and Nursing and Allied Health. Medical assisting, business and office administration, and engineering are popular programs. In recent years, there’s also been a significant increase in distance learning, including both online and

hybrid classes. In fall 2014 the school began offering an Agribusiness Technology program to better support Iredell County’s many small farms and encourage the development of new agricultural businesses. Mitchell Community College has been recognized for Exceptional Institution Performance, which means meeting or exceeding eight performance measures and having no licensure exam with a passing rate of less than 70 percent.

NASCAR Technical Institute Because Mooresville has garnered attention as the home base for auto racing, more and more residents are seeking hands-on, practical job training that will enable them to pursue careers in the rapidly growing field of motorsports.

One of 13 campuses located across the United States, NASCAR Technical Institute, the advanced motorsports training arm of the Universal Technical Institute, offers a wide range of automotive technology courses tailored for the NASCAR industry, in addition to various manufacturer training programs, such as Ford, Honda, Nissan, BMW and more. The rigorous curriculum prides itself on providing students with accelerated training opportunities and covers an extensive list of fundamentals including, basic engine systems, electronics, power trains, brakes, climate control, transmissions and passenger restraint systems. According to recent university statistics, four out of five students are placed with employers in the automotive industry, such as NASCAR teams, other motorsports teams and racing support companies.

GETTING STARTED

Your Partner in Business

The Mooresville – South Iredell Chamber of Commerce will help you pave the road to entrepreneurship by Mike Savicki

irk Ballard, president of the Mooresville – South Iredell Chamber of Commerce, likes to begin his conversations with individuals who express an interest in starting a small business in the area with a simple statement. “It all starts with a business plan in the beginning stages,” Ballard says before reminding the entrepreneur, “The success rate for businesses is so much higher if they have a plan to follow.” And once you have a plan in place, that’s where Ballard believes the Chamber can help transform the dream into reality. “Especially in a tough economy, people feel the pull of going out on their own, but if they don’t do it correctly from the beginning and just assume people are going to run to their door and buy their product or service, my experience says even the best ideas can turn into recipes for disaster.” Ballard believes the Chamber has the skill, experience and expertise to give necessary guidance and counsel. “What we do through the Chamber of

Making Waves - Mooresville

Commerce is link entrepreneurs with the resources they need to help them get their company plan started the way our experience tells us it should,” Ballard explains. The Chamber’s staff offers several resources. First, through an exclusive partnership with Mitchell Community College, new business leaders learn business-planning skills needed to hatch their new companies. The Chamber also links proven leaders with those who need guidance in new business structure planning. Both the Chamber’s Adult Leadership Program and Junior Leadership Program teach aspiring leaders what communities need to solve the issues that hinder growth. The Chamber’s Small Business Center also provides information, training, counseling referrals, and other technical and managerial assistance to small businesses or individuals who are interested in starting a small business. Over 80 “no fee” seminars and workshops cover a range of topics pertinent to every component of managing a small business. From financing, grant writing, bookkeeping and money management to motivating and training employees to marketing and selling goods and services, the sessions offered prove beneficial to companies across a wide variety of industries. “There is no other entity like the Chamber to bring so many disparate resources together to work towards a common good. We keep the best interest

of the new businesses in mind as we help them learn how to operate in a vibrant business community like ours. And because our community is growing so rapidly, we continually have to reeducate our members and new friends about how we are staying on the leading edge of the business curve. What worked in the past might not necessarily work today,” Ballard explains. As the Mooresville—South Iredell Chamber nears its 100-year anniversary, its commitment to business development is stronger than ever before. With a renewed passion and focus, it advances the civic, commercial and industrial growth of the Town of Mooresville and the South Iredell area. And the Chamber remains a proactive business and community organization committed to providing education and support. With an influential voice dedicated to economic success and quality of life, it continues to serve as the community champion and advocate for business. “With proper guidance, planning and camaraderie, we believe our new business friends will have a better chance of succeeding,” Ballard says. “We offer the right advocacy tools and resources that lead to selfdetermination and business success.”

Mooresville’s Economic Development wins medals By: Mike Savicki

hen you imagine southern Iredell County, one of the state’s largest and most diverse micropolitans, tucked peacefully along the shores of Lake Norman, it is fair to say that the winter Olympics might not be the first thing that comes to mind. But ask any USA Bobsledder where his or her sled was developed and you’ll hear medalists like Stephen Holcomb and Steve Langton utter the name Mooresville, North Carolina with thankfulness and appreciation. That’s because Mooresville is home to deBotech, the industryleading carbon fiber and advanced composites company founded in 1998 by Hans deBot, a Mechanical and Aerospace Hall of Fame Inductee from North Carolina State University. With more than 20 years of experience designing, engineering and manufacturing everything from America’s Cup sailing spars, chassis and bodywork for various racing syndicates, as well as production parts for Automotive OEMs, it strives to be the number one carbon fiber and advanced composite parts manufacturer in the world. If you don’t think technology plays a role in winning then think again, the USA two-man sled finished ahead of fourth by a mere 0.03 seconds at the Sochi Games in 2014.

Veterans Receive Hard-Earned Recognition in Mooresville by Mike Savicki

Making Waves - Mooresville

Sadly, in May of 2009, Richard died of complications from exposure to Agent Orange. His patrons vowed to keep the shop open in his honor. After a two-year relocation to a storefront further down Main Street, locally owned Aquesta Bank came aboard and worked to set up the lease-to-purchase agreement that ultimately helped Welcome Home Veterans settle in its third and permanent location as both a coffee shop and living military museum. An overflow crowd of supporters packed Downtown Mooresville when the new shop opened on July 4, 2009. The mission statement simply reads, “To ensure the memory of, and support to, those who serve through Welcome Home Veterans

Living Military Museum at Richard’s Coffee Shop.” “Richard’s was and will always be a place where all the veterans can congregate and continue to share the same levels of support and camaraderie they received in the service,” explains David Parkins, media/public relations coordinator of Welcome Home Veterans. “And we have grown to become a very strong support center that not only coordinates volunteer work but takes an active role in helping veterans in every way imaginable.” “I have traveled all over the United States and have never seen anything like it,” adds Jim Kiger, a 34-year Air Force veteran who, for the last three years, has served as the military

n early 1995, an Army veteran named Richard Warren signed a lease for a storefront in Downtown Mooresville and took a chance by starting a small business. The former gunship pilot who had previously served in the Vietnam War, call sign “Maverick 53,” opened a small coffee shop named after his wife, Pat. With the simple promise of a good cup of coffee served with small town warmth, his dream became a reality. What Richard did for the veterans who began patronizing his shop was something ahead of its time. Knowing that America had still not warmed to appreciating the soldiers, seamen, airmen and marines who returned from service, Richard began greeting veterans and active duty service members with a simple, “Welcome home, brother (or sister)” as they entered. If they were willing to share a story of two, he asked them to sign his “Book of Honor.” Soon Pat’s Gourmet Coffee Shop became known as a place where veterans were welcomed and appreciated. The reputation spread across the Lake Norman area, throughout the region and eventually across the nation. The walls of the shop soon became saturated with photos, memorabilia, mementos, ribbons, awards, flags and almost everything military related that a patron could carry and donate. More than a coffee shop, Pat’s became a living military museum.

He is tasked with, among his many duties, helping veterans find jobs in the local community. “If it’s not one-of-a-kind, it’s darn near, and if what we do to support and honor our veterans isn’t extraordinary then I don’t know what is. “On any given day, at any given time, when you walk into Richard’s, you often find yourself shoulder to shoulder with many of our country’s greatest living heroes,” Kiger adds. “Purple Heart recipients, Silver Star heroes, as well as soldiers either just back on U.S. soil or about to deploy. The Book of Honor has well over 10,000 signatures, and every single veteran is still greeted with ‘Welcome Home, Brother.’ ”

There’s even a Christmas Social with door prizes, entertainment, food and fellowship. “It’s a one stop for all seniors. If seniors need a service or help of any kind, the senior center can assist.

hey don’t call them the golden years for nothing. Retirement is a time for senior citizens to live life to the fullest and try things they’ve always wanted to try. Senior citizens in the Mooresville area have a distinct advantage because of the South Iredell Senior Center. Twenty-four years ago the Iredell Council on Aging passed a resolution and voted to work towards securing a building to house a multi-purpose senior center in Mooresville. Today the South Iredell Senior Center is housed on the lower level of The Charles Mack Citizen Center in Downtown Mooresville. The purpose of the senior center is based on the following three premises: Aging is a normal developmental process; human beings need peers with whom they can interact and who are available as a source of encouragement and support; and older adults have the right to a voice in determining matters in which they have a valid interest. The mission of the senior center is “to help seniors to continue to grow, promoting physical, emotional and economical wellbeing for successful aging.” All that said, there’s a lot of fun and fellowship to be had at the South Iredell Senior Center. Tina Czarnecki, senior center manager, says that the center currently serves 1,091 seniors and that exercise classes are one of its most popular offerings. “Seniors today want to invest in their good health and fitness. Other popular classes include a variety of card games, arts and crafts, various sewing/

screenings, outreach and volunteer opportunities. The Senior Center even offers counseling and enrollment assistance for things like Medicare/ senior insurance, nursing home/ assisted living, Social Security online enrollment and more.” The South Iredell Senior Center is a place where individuals can continue to grow emotionally, maintain their health and fitness, learn new things, make friends, find purpose and basically help seniors to age successfully. “There is something for everyone,” says Czarnecki. “It’s always fun, and there are always exciting things going on.”

The Scoop

If you are an Iredell County resident, there is no membership fee for the South Iredell Senior Center. Out of county residents pay a low annual fee of $25, which is used to support a scholarship fund. For more information, visit www.iredellcoa.com.

Mooresville’s culinary scene flourishes by Trevor Burton photography by Glenn Roberson

ome of the most fun my wife and I have is entertaining out-of-towners when they come to visit us in Mooresville. There’s the majesty of Lake Norman, of course, but what really astonishes our guests is the variety and quality of dining we have here. We play host to people from all over the United States, as well as some of Europe’s finest cities. Inevitably, whenever we take them out to get a bite and a sip, jaws tend to drop. And, why not? We recently took some friends to dinner at Epic Chophouse in Downtown Mooresville on Main Street. Before moving to southern sensibility, one of our friends lived and dined in New York City. As we waited for our table he looked around at the architecture and the food on the tables and commented that he felt like he was at the best steakhouse in Manhattan. Combine this historic building and the culinary talents of Chef Jon Spencer, and you’re onto something — a visual feast for the eyes and a savory feast for your palate. Great steaks, great seafood and a spectacular wine list with servers who know what wines to recommend with a meal. Try their crispy fried whole flounder. Scintillating. Up for something more European? Treat yourself at Pasquale Caruso’s eponymous restaurant on Brawley School Road. Once again you’re transported — this time to an upscale trattoria somewhere on a backstreet in Rome — with ambiance and aromas to match. Some time ago the ancient and prestigious dining group, the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, took over Caruso’s restaurant for an evening A Product of Lake Norman CURRENTS Magazine

of some of the best Italian cuisine you can find anywhere. Normally this gourmet gang hangs out at the crème de la crème of that large banking city to our south, so you can see the league that Caruso’s plays in. Magnifico. When we really want to show off we like to take guests out on a leisurely boat ride to the Prickly Pear, overlooking the bridge on Williamson Road. This place is unique, as it's one of the most upscale Mexican restaurants you’ll ever set foot in. First, you get to sip on a predinner margarita on the terrace while watching the sun set on the lake. Then, you get to select from

could possibly be better than going into a wine store and finding there’s a party about to break out? Drop in at Jamie Venable’s Wine Maestro at Mooresville Town Square. On a Thursday or Friday you might run into a crowd tasting wine and noshing on in-house Chef Graddie Lane’s creations — yes, this is a wine store that has an in-house chef. And it’s not the only game in town. Venture downtown to 202 North Main on a Thursday evening. It’s the same thing — wine tasting, music and food — this time in a beautifully restored historic building. Pretty nifty. Then again, there are some times when all you hanker for is a perfect hamburger or maybe a bison burger. One more time you’re in luck. Stop by Blu Star Grill on Marketplace Avenue in Morrison Plantation. The quality and freshness of ingredients is what sets this place apart. Add some fried green tomatoes as a side dish to your burger, and you’re in foodie heaven. Blissful.

One stop that’s a weekly must for us is Josh’s Market on Williamson Road. We load up on fresh, local produce of all kinds. It really does taste better. Over the years we’ve become friends with Landon Wilder. Wilder and his Shrimp Connection are a weekend fixture at Josh’s. Each week Wilder journeys down to the Carolina shore and brings back a truckload of fish, shrimp and other goodies. As far away from the ocean as we are, we still get

access to all kinds of seafood that was swimming in the briny only a day or so before. Unbeatable. All of this is just the delicious tip of a very tasty iceberg. We lucky Mooresvilleans have a vast choice of other restaurants. We have a huge collection of ethnic food and pizza restaurants, meat and three veggie joints, and lots of sandwich places. Mooresville, a culinary treasure. Who’d have thought? Bon Appétit. Making Waves - Mooresville

HOW TO LIVE HERE

Choose Your Own Adventure

There are plenty of wonderful ways to live here by Lee McCracken

he beautiful thing about Mooresville is that are so many ways in which to live here. From Interstate 77's exits 31 through 36, people have an abundance of housing options from historic districts to lakefront living. Just make a list of what’s important to you and choose your own adventure. If you want to be able to stroll to a restaurant from your front porch, Downtown Mooresville is calling your name. If you want to take a boat ride after commuting home from Charlotte, check out Lake Norman. Whatever

you choose, you can be certain to be surrounded by friendly folks who want to make you feel at home here.

Historic Downtown With the revitalization of Mooresville’s town center, including the renovations of many of the old mill homes, living downtown presents a dynamic blend of vibrancy and laidback, small-town America. Greg and Dorothy Hensley, and their son, Houston, who’s a senior

at Mooresville High School, live in a 100-year-old home on South Academy Street, just two blocks from Main Street. Many years ago, it was owned by Hal and Florence Johnston — a well-known town business owner and former town librarian respectively, whose portrait hangs in the library today. Greg and Dorothy work within Mooresville’s city limits and enjoy continuing to renovate their historic home with love and care. They’ve added 1,400 square feet to the initial structure that only had one bathroom

and also lacked central air-conditioning and washer/dryer hookups. “We have the rare kind of neighborhood where almost everyone knows each other and has lived on the street for many years,” explains Dorothy. She and her husband enjoy walking to performances at the Charles Mack Citizen Center, as well as the many downtown events. “There are so many reasons we love Mooresville,” she adds. “We intend to live here for the rest of our lives.”

The ’Burbs Mooresville also has many builderdesigned quiet neighborhoods near convenient retail developments. Bill and Denise Thunberg have called Franklin Grove, south of town, home for 22 years. Bill is a former Mooresville mayor and school board

member, and their grown sons both attended Mooresville schools. They enjoy their neighborhood’s mature trees and its large pond with a footbridge over the creek to Mooresville’s Bellingham Park. “We have had hot air balloons land in our cul-de-sac over the years,” recalls Denise. “Otherwise, it’s a quiet neighborhood, where we have very dear friends.”

Lake Living The northeastern shores of Lake Norman are lined with waterfront homes. Some are in golf course communities, like The Point, a 1,200-acre neighborhood with an 18-hole Greg Norman-designed course, which is now owned by Donald Trump. Many communities offer boat slips, docks and ramps. Trevor and Mary Ellen Burton

are enjoying their 18th year in Stonemarker, at the end of Brawley School Road. Because Trevor is a wine connoisseur, who writes a montly wine column for CURRENTS Magazine and does frequent wine segments on WCNC-TV’s Charlotte Today, the couple added a wine cellar a couple of years after their custom-designed and built house was completed. Living on a peninsula with 400 feet of shoreline, the Burtons enjoy sitting on their patio and looking at “nothing but a wide expanse of lake and a large island [across from the property] packed with trees.” When they aren’t dining on the patio with friends, the Burtons enjoy the many fine restaurants in the Mooresville area. “It’s all here at the lake,” says Trevor, “but don’t tell too many people — they may want to move here.”

frequently performs productions here, as well as The Mooresville Community Children’s Theatre. National acts have even been known to take the stage. The 62,000-square-foot center opened in 1995 and went through a $4.5 million renovation in 2001. Funding for the building came from the CJ Mack Foundation, named for long-time resident and merchant, Charles Mack. Most folks refer to the

center as the “jewel of downtown.” Down the street you’ll find the Historic Mooresville Depot, where Mooresville Arts makes its home. Six local artists, who originally met in the basement of the War Memorial building to exchange ideas and simply paint, founded the organization in 1955. Today it offers classes, workshops, exhibitions and its annual Fall Artoberfest. If you’re into galleries, a trip to A Product of Lake Norman CURRENTS Magazine

“The popularity of the game has grown far beyond what we initially imagined,” says Dale Tweedy, director of marketing for Lake Norman United. “The kids who first started playing the sport at a young age and are now playing at the next level are proof of where we came from and the tremendous influx of new players, instructors and volunteers are great signs of where we want to go in growing the sport.” Add to that, that in 2012, Lake

GOLF

Birdies, Eagles and Elegance Karen Palacios-Jansen talks golf at the new Trump National Charlotte by Mike Savicki hen Karen Palacios-Jansen, a golf performance specialist, Nike Golf Advisory Staff member, David Leadbettertrained instructor and AFAA certified personal trainer, heard that her home course was getting a new owner in 2012, she was ecstatic. The longtime pro, who leads online classes from her home studio close to the course, was excited about the higherend amenities Donald Trump, an avid golfer himself, would soon introduce to the course. Golf, tennis, fitness, aquatics, family activities, dining and even a bakery all in a Cape Cod-style village. Yes, that’s what you’ll get when you make plans to visit Mooresville’s most upscale and charming country club. With improvements from tee to green and an added touch of class everywhere you look, this newly renamed and upgraded club is the latest in a certain businessman’s array. Yes, every amenity proudly bears his name (including the bakery), and, right down to the smallest detail, the club is every bit deserving of its reputation. Members simply call it Trump, but nationally, it’s better known as Trump National Charlotte. Palacios-Jansen believes the new course compliments the area’s already varied offerings. “You get a mix of the old and new in terms of golf course design in the Mooresville area,” explains Palacios-Jansen, who is

also the wife of Olympic gold medal speed skater, Dan Jansen (also an avid golfer). “You’ll find classically designed courses that reflect typical Carolina, Donald Ross-type courses that have narrow, tree-lined fairways and well-placed bunkers that guard small greens. And you’ll find more modern championship courses designed by well-known architects like Rees Jones and Greg Norman, who have been able to shape courses around the unique terrain of Lake Norman.” When she tees it up and works with students on any one of the varied courses close to her back yard, she enjoys some of the most varied and challenging holes anywhere in the state. It’s a combination Jansen truly appreciates. Two public courses are also just

minutes from her home. Mallard Head, a semi-private par 72 course at 6,904 yards, and Mooresville Golf Course, a municipal par 72 layout at 6,528 yards, are known throughout Iredell County. “The state of the game is in good shape in this area. The Lake Norman area has always been a golfer’s paradise,” Palacios-Jansen says. “Donald Trump has [now] discovered what all of us living at The Point Lake and Golf Course [now Trump National Charlotte] have known for years, that we live and play on one of the most amazing and beautiful golf courses in the world.” And it is getting better. “Donald Trump, with his resources, will be able to enhance our area and elevate it to world-class status,” PalaciosJansen continues. “Not that it needed A Product of Lake Norman CURRENTS Magazine

improvement, in my opinion, but I welcome any upgrades that enrich our playing experience.” Palacios-Jansen’s words echo what golfers from across the Southern Piedmont have long believed. While traveling to enjoy the game is fantastic, coming home to golf is uniquely special, too. “Playing day to day on a course like Trump National Charlotte like I do spoils me when I travel to other golf courses,” Palacios-Jansen says. “Almost every hole has a view of the lake or of an amazing home. Nothing is more calming than looking out into the lake and seeing sailboats or wildlife. We live in a vacation environment, so even if I play other amazing golf courses, the views and amenities usually can’t compare to what I have to look forward to when I return home.”

The Green Flag Waves in Race City USA Mooresville and Motorsports Go Hand in Hand by Mike Savicki

ooresville is known as ground zero for auto racing for good reason. In about the time it takes a NASCAR Sprint Cup car to motor through a 500- or 600-mile race on the nearby Charlotte Motor Speedway, it seems Mooresville has transformed itself into auto racing’s new home base. Geography and lifestyle were two of the main drivers. In the early 1990s, as NASCAR captured the national spotlight and became the American motorsport industry’s race series of choice, team owners looked for a location where they could set down their roots and focus on building speed. Bypassing race friendly cities like Daytona, Atlanta, Talladega and Richmond, team owners chose the sleepy bedroom community once nicknamed Port City for factors including its proximity to major interstaes as well as its desirable cost of living and pace of life. Race fans were quick to follow. With more than one million spectators packing motorsports events throughout North Carolina each year, a visit to Race City USA is a huge part of the checkered flag experience. Visitors can spend the day touring race shops, watching crew members build and tune cars, and exploring the history of auto racing in one of Mooresville’s auto racing museums. And if water is your thing, taking a race-focused Lake Norman boat tour will let you get up close and

Race shops are a huge draw, especially during the spring and fall race weeks. Penske Racing’s state-of-the-art facility houses the operations of its NASCAR Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series teams, as well as its 2014 IZOD IndyCar Championship headquarters. Fans can oversee the shop action on a 330-foot fan walk that allows viewers to get up close and personal with the crews as they prepare cars for upcoming races almost every week of the year. JR Motorsports, the 66,000-squarefoot facility owned by Dale Earnhardt, Jr., is the home of JR Nation, complete with a retail store and a “Dale Jr. Fan Experience” room that chronicles the life and racing career of the driver. NASCAR’s perennial fan favorite local resident is never far away either. His foundation, run by sister Kelley Earnhardt Miller, centers its support in the local community. Kyle Busch Motorsports is a 77,000-square-foot corporate headquarters equipped to handle race preparations for Busch’s fleet

of Toyota Tundra trucks. In addition to its 2,000-square-foot retail store, the facility is packed with enough green technology initiatives to put it on the road to LEED certification. NASCAR Technical Institute, the advanced motorsports training component of Universal Technical Institute, is the exclusive educational partner of NASCAR. After completing the general automotive syllabus at any of UTI’s national campuses, qualified students travel to Mooresville to learn the specifics of racing. There is no other program like it in the world, and graduates find jobs globally. Race City USA is also home to such industry leaders as Roush Yates Engines; Germain Racing; DEI; Martin Truex, Jr. Motorsports; Kasey Kahne Racing; and the AeroDyn Wind Tunnel. History buffs will feel at home in Mooresville as well. The North Carolina Auto Racing Hall of Fame features more than 35 race cars dedicated to all types of auto racing as well as the Goodyear MiniTheater, plus numerous showcases and displays. Memory Lane Motorsports & Historical Automotive Museum features the largest private collection of retired NASCAR and vintage race cars on display, in

addition to many one-of-a-kind race items, as well as the largest known collection of racing go-karts in the world. And if you are lucky enough to get an invitation to visit his shop, Ray Evernham’s private collection of personal and race-proven automobiles is second to none. Main Street in Downtown Mooresville is home to the North Carolina Auto Racing Walk of Fame. With a growing number of sidewalk markers honoring legends including Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt, Cale Yarborough, Bobby Allison, Darrell Waltrip, Junior Johnson and more, visitors can experience the motorsports version of Hollywood’s famous Walk of Fame. It is located in front of The Charles Mack Citizen Center. “We’ve come a long way since moonshine running turned into a multi-billion dollar industry more than 60 years ago,” said former North Carolina Governor Bev Purdue as she signed Executive Order 49, establishing the Governor’s Motorsports Council several years ago. “I’m taking the time to rev up our commitment to the motorsports industry, which supports thousands of high-tech jobs in North Carolina.” Racing’s home is now Mooresville, and the green flag waves almost every day of the year.

Big Rigs Mean Big Business

It’s all about flash and flair at K&L Collision and Outcast Kustoms by Mike Savicki photography by Ben Sherrill

f you ever caught Trick My Truck on Country Music Television (CMT) or Outcast Kustoms on Discovery’s Velocity Channel, then you’ll most likely recognize the name Kelvin Locklear. Raised in a family of truckers, he is known in the industry as the guy who will build or customize almost any type of big rig when just about everyone else says “no.” His work is recognizable, flashy, show-worthy and looks all around spectacular rolling up and down America’s highways. Along with his wife, April, Kelvin is

the face of Mooresville’s K&L Collision and Outcast Kustoms, the three year-old, state-of-the-art collision repair shop for RV’s and trailers and customization home for rigs of all shapes, sizes, ages and conditions. Their building occupies 48,000 square feet in Lakeside Park, right alongside some of the motorsports industry’s home shops, and work seemingly never stops. “From the time we made a call to the leaders in Mooresville asking about expansion, we were amazed

by the welcoming attitude of the business community,” Kelvin says as he reflects on the process of expanding from Florence, South Carolina, finding a second home and becoming operational. “They welcomed us like they do all businesss and even the firemen, who stopped in when we first began cleaning out the building, volunteered to help us make this location our new home. “And now,” he adds, “Mooresville continues to keep us informed,

and they continue to bend over backwards for us, like they do for folks from California, the North or the Midwest who want to relocate and open their businesses here.” Kelvin says one of the perks of being located in the heart of Race City USA is the opportunity to connect and even share ideas with others who share similar mindsets. “It’s cool to have a crew chief, or a guy like Clint Boyer, who grew up in a family that owns heavy duty wreckers, stop in to see what we are working on and

customizing,” he explains. “Across all of motorsports, our mindsets are the same, We all share the same appreciation for creating something from nothing and we all use our skill and abilities on every project or to reach a goal.” If you happen to be visiting Lake Norman during a holiday or festival period, keep your eyes peeled for Outcast Kustom’s Fighting Cancer Fire Truck. Sure the antique truck still has working fire controls and it looks great painted pink, but it’s the elevated seating areas, the booming sound system and the T-shirt launcher that really make it stand out in a crowd.

When Justin Marks made the decision to design and build an outdoor karting track in the middle of racing’s back yard, he knew the appeal would have to reach diverse populations. Marks targeted three groups. Novices, he believed, were looking for a fun, family friendly, outdoor facility that would allow them to learn the basics then try their hand at a new sport. Kart enthusiasts were ready to trade empty parking lots and older tracks with limited availability for something local that would push them to become better. And the NASCAR drivers who call the area home? Well, they demanded nothing less than a world-class track and racing facility that might test their already-tuned skill and expertise behind the wheel. So in the summer of 2009, from his California home, Marks and his team held their initial conversations and began the planning process that ultimately resulted in the October 2012 opening of GoPro Motorplex. “As we looked at opportunities to get involved in the karting business, we looked across the country and saw Charlotte, particularly Mooresville, as a destination where something was missing,” recalls Marks, owner of the facility, current Davidson resident and former SCCA World Challenge, Rolex Grand American Series, American Le Mans Series, ARCA, Camping World Truck Series and Nationwide Series driver. “We knew the area was heavily into racing, but the opportunities for people to actually participate by getting behind the wheel were limited. It was almost like if you imagine Nashville, Tennessee, without a country bar.”

Marks modeled the track after the world famous Kartdromo Parma in Parma, Italy. “Parma gave birth to some of the greatest names in karting, and some of the greatest names in Formula One also got their start there, too,” he explains. “I thought if we replicated what they did and added our own state-of-theart touches, maybe we could give a whole new generation of racers their start and one day we could call ourselves the birthplace of America’s next generation of superstars. GoPro Motorplex, anchored by its digitally scanned and rebuilt track, is the end product of long and exhaustive research, planning and design. With its world-class, state-of-the-art, .7 mile, Grand-prix style, kart track and racing facility, combined with the industry’s best fleet of rental karts that can reach upwards of 55 mph, it has quickly become the finest example of a multi-faceted, turnkey, karting center in the USA. “What we wound up with here is just what we had hoped,” Marks says. “For the novices, we offer a place to learn and give the sport a try. And what we offer for enthusiasts is a technically demanding, difficult track for drivers, a track with soul, where the best drivers—not the ones with the most horsepower—will win.”

The Scoop

GoPro Motorplex is located on a 30-acre campus at 130 Motorplex Drive in Mooresville adjacent to the athletic fields at Mazeppa Road Park. For more information, visit. www.mooresvillemotorplex.com
