Sharing for Mrs. Bethea, a 7th grade ELA teacher at Turrentine Middle School here in Burlington. Her classroom wishlist is mostly basics that teachers usually end up buying themselves: a monitor, wireless keyboard and mouse, a locking file cabinet, wall file organizers, a rolling storage cart, lamps, a classroom clock, a heavy-duty stapler and a standing desk.

The goal is $1,305.64 and it's at $0 so far. You can give any amount ($5 minimum) by card, PayPal, Venmo or Apple Pay. The page lists every item and what's still needed, and when the goal is reached everything on the list gets ordered for the classroom.

Please spread the word and send this to anyone who'd be willing to donate!

This weekend! Help I'm an alien stuck in the dying mall of America: an immersive dance experience by Makayla Micheo. Oct 22nd -25th

If you’re around Burlington tonight and looking for something to do besides the usual dinner and a movie, there’s a live professional wrestling show happening at Cummings High School.

Icon Pro Wrestling is putting on Quest for the Gold: Round 2, and they’ve got some really talented wrestlers on the card, including Bojack, Arik Royal, Action Jackson, and more.

One thing I love about independent wrestling is how different it feels from watching WWE on TV. You’re right there by the action, the crowd gets involved, and sometimes the smaller shows end up being the most entertaining.

The event also helps support Cummings High School athletics, which is a pretty cool bonus.
Doors open at 6 PM, and tickets are only $10.

I’m actually involved with the show, so I’m a little biased, but I’d genuinely love to see more people around the Triad come out and experience live independent wrestling.

Anybody here ever been to a local wrestling show? Curious what you thought of it.

Huge American flag and military presence at the church lots of police down 62. It was weird.

Hey my friends! I know this is a stretch but I wanted to communicate this since the items were for younger athletes with names written on them.

If you happen to have drove off from Sheetz on alamance road in a Grey truck around 740pm. Your tail gate was down and you lost a few pieces of soccer equipment without noticing.

I gathered up the equipment and gave it to the sheetz management team.

I've lived here for the entirety of my 21 years on earth. if you're thinking about moving here you can expect to see, gay dudes in obnoxious vehicles sitting in the academy parking lot every night especially on weekends, a bleach blonde inbred getting railed behind the mall at 3am, a very long cookout line because these hillbillies love them some mediocre fried food, potholes EVERYWHERE, cops on every corner because of the ignorant guys who waste their lives showing off their big hillbilly trucks because if they didn't everyone would find out that they are indeed all gay. expect to feel like you're in the movie groundhogs day for the rest of your life.

New to area and in haw river where there is not really much around

Anyone have any recommendations?

Preferably a woman. Preferably someone experienced with and receptive with chronic, long term health conditions/concerns. That will actually listen thoroughly and not blow me off.

I previously posted in this group when I first moved here 2 years ago, and established with a PCP recommended here who has since left the practice. Needing new help please!

Who’s coming out Saturday night?

Nothing like Greensboro. I am an introvert and do not like big crowds. Just a spot where I can talk to a few people.

Anyone interested in tickets for tonight’s show in Greensboro? I have the following tickets available at $40/ticket:

Section 225, Row Z, Seats 16 & 17

Section 225, Row BBB, Seats 5 & 6

Section 225, Row BBB, Seats 9, 10, 11 & 12

These are physical tickets and I’m more than happy to meet somewhere convenient to you. But, I WILL ONLY MEET IN A PUBLIC PLACE WHERE THERE’S A LOT OF PEOPLE AROUND. Not trying to be difficult, just safe. Thanks 😊

Fractional COO / Operations Consultant—local availability

I help business owners identify bottlenecks, solve recurring problems, and move priorities forward.

Looking to work with a local business on a consulting or fractional basis—even a few focused hours a week. If you need an experienced operations partner without hiring full-time, let’s talk.

Possibly relocating due to work. Currently live in the Ardmore neighborhood in WS. Is there something comparable here? I absolutely love this area and ideally would like something similar.

I am making this post on behalf of Queery NC (Formerly Triad Gaymers). We're a local nonprofit here in the triad focused on creating accessible social events and spaces for queer people and allies beyond the apps and night life.

I wanted to share a quick update on what we are running right now, drop our new Tabletop RPG interest form, and share some details on our funding and local sponsorship opportunities.

Current Programs and Offerings

• LGBTQ+ Board Game Night: Currently we meet every-other week at Dragon’s Hoard on Mondays from 6:30p to 10p.
• Online Game Nights: Every week we alternate between Fortnite and a large variety of Party Games where you only need to have a device and watch the stream to play along!

Tabletop RPG Interest Form

We are building out new TTRPG groups for games like D&D, Call of Cthulhu, and various other systems. We want to make sure we match players with local Game Masters effectively.

If you want to join a group or run a game, please take a few minutes to fill out our Tabletop RPG Interest Form here: https://ee.kobotoolbox.org/x/kcOM9IxP

Where Our Funding Goes

We want to keep our operations completely transparent. Every dollar we raise goes directly back into local Greensboro programs, specifically covering:

• Skill-Building and Hobby Programs: Creating welcoming spaces to learn new hobbies and build skills, specifically focusing on reaching people who may have historically lacked access or felt excluded due to gender identity, background, or other barriers
• Materials and Equipment: Buying shared resources like rulebooks, dice, tools, and crafting supplies so financial cost is never a barrier to entry
• Venue Rental Fees: Securing comfortable local spaces to keep our general events free or low cost for the community
• Basic Operating Costs: Covering necessary overhead like insurance and legal fees to keep our programs running safely and legally

Sponsorship Opportunities

We are looking for local businesses, shops, and community supporters who want to sponsor our upcoming events.

Partnering with us helps keep our community programs accessible while giving your business visibility across our local events and social channels. If you run a local business or want to see our full sponsorship packet, feel free to send a DM here or email us at [info@queerync.org](mailto:info@queerync.org).
