  Carolina Community for 01/26/06

Shelby, NC

Carolina Communities LogoThis week’s Carolina Community is Shelby, located on Highway 74 in the rolling Piedmont, between Charlotte and Asheville, as they say connecting the best of the Carolinas. This community of 21,000 was named after Colonel Issac Shelby, hero of the Revolutionary War battle of Kings Mountain and later the first Governor of Kentucky. Presidents James Monroe and Andrew Jackson visited Shelby’s home. Country music legends Earl Scruggs and Don Gibson called Shelby home, as did basketball great David Thompson. The Shelby Dynasty, headed by Governors O. Max Gardner and Clyde Hooey, dominated North Carolina Politics in the late 1930’s. Visitors and residents love the year-round Carousel, ample parks and recreation facilities. Shelby mixes history, hospitality, and today’s conveniences, making it a great Carolina Community.
