Celebrating our Community in Rocky Mount and Franklin County, VA !

Our all volunteer board continues to meet and plan events for the community. We continue to be most pleased, and grateful,  for the participants, guests, and sponsors of all our events to celebrate Rocky Mount and Franklin County, our HOME!     

Community Partnership and our partners are quite excited about the fall season in Rocky Mount.  Missy Morris, Executive Director, and several of our Board Members are busy preparing for the upcoming Scarecrow Trail.  You will soon seen cornstalks circling our lamposts in Rocky Mount, just waiting for the "scarecrows" to appear!  What fun we all have when traveling to Rocky Mount and visiting with our newest "residents"!!! 

And, just around the corner is the start to our Christmas season.  Plans are already underway for December 5th for the Christmas Tree Lighting at our historic Franklin County Courthouse. The following day, December 6th, our signature event, "Come Home to a Franklin County Christmas" will be held in Downtown Rocky Mount.  Our entire community and visitors from everywhere delight in this celebration.  

We love helping to bring these activities to our community.  What a wonderful place we all call home!!!
