Good morning, Greensboro.

The 15th annual Dr. George C.

Simkins Jr. Golf Classic, honoring local pioneers who fought segregation in public recreational spaces, will take place Friday, June 5 at Greensboro National Golf Club (330 Niblick Drive in Summerfield) and raise funds for the International Civil Rights Center and Museum.

Guilford County Animal Services will host one more pet drive today in honor of Ed Matthews' final week with WFMY News 2, inviting local residents to donate pet supplies for community animals.

The Cedarwood Garden Club will dedicate a Gold Star Families Memorial Marker at the Carolina Field of Honor in Triad Park, Kernersville on Memorial Day, May 25 at 11 a.m. & the club had sponsored a similar marker at Wrenn Miller Park in May 2024.

The Interactive Resource Center held its second annual fair yesterday, connecting dozens of unhoused residents in Downtown Greensboro with mental health, housing, and workforce assistance through more than 40 local agencies and companies.

Organizers hope the event will help people take steady steps toward stability.

A judge approved a $4.5 million settlement for local businesses hurt by the 2022 Winston Weaver fire & forced to close for several days.

The decision follows years of legal proceedings aimed at easing the financial strain on the affected shops.

Travel is expected to increase over Memorial Day weekend as rising gas prices prompt Kernersville commuters to adjust holiday plans; GasBuddy lists Triad prices at about $4 a gallon, adding to rising costs + affecting family budgets.

Wildlife experts advise residents to remain cautious as animals are more active during warmer months.

They recommend avoiding contact, checking for ticks, and vaccinating pets (key steps to prevent rabies) while calling professionals for orphaned or injured wildlife.
