🌼 Won’t You Be My Neighbor Day – Friday, March 20 🌼
Today, we are celebrating the simple but powerful reminder from Mr. Rogers: “Look for the helpers.”
In Cleveland County, we are proud to see helpers in every neighborhood, people who look out for one another, lend a hand, and show kindness in small everyday ways. 💛
As we recognize Won’t You Be My Neighbor Day, we encourage everyone to:
• Check in on a neighbor
• Offer a kind word
• Lend a helping hand
• Spread patience, understanding, and positivity 🤝
Strong communities are built on kindness. Let’s continue taking care of each other today and every day.

🚨 SCAM ALERT – PLEASE READ & SHARE 🚨
Several people in our area have been receiving random text messages claiming to be from official agencies (like the DMV, courts, banks, etc.). These messages often warn about “unpaid citations,” “account issues,” or “urgent deadlines,” and then include a link to click.
Please do NOT click any links in unexpected texts, even if they look official or use scary language. Scammers are getting very good at making fake messages look real.
If you ever receive something suspicious:
• Don’t click the link
• Don’t reply
• Go directly to the official website or call the agency using a verified number
Stay safe and share this to help keep others from getting caught in these scams! 🙏💙
