We would like to congratulate all the winners of this year's first annual Goat Awards 2023. We would also like to send a special thank you to those who could make it to join us as well as our Sponsors in honoring the small businesses of Greensboro.

As proclaimed January will be CEASE FIRE MONTH and our annual Goat Awards will take place every MLK weekend holiday. Go ahead and mark your calendars for next year because we would love to see you there.

As FASK (Families against senseless killings) and MSAGN (Mothers Standing Gun Violence) continue to fight and take action against gun violence in Greensboro, we encourage all of you to join in the mission to save the children of our community.

Continue to lead by example as you already are, upholding your commitment of providing your community with excellent service and leadership.
