Commemorating Memorial Day
“Throughout our nation’s history, North Carolinians have answered the call to serve our country and protect our freedoms, and this weekend we honor those who paid the ultimate price in that service. Anna’s and my heart are with all the North Carolinians who are mourning their loved ones. Let us honor their legacy by preserving their memories, celebrating their bravery, and nourishing our democracy.” — Gov. Josh Stein

The brave men and women in North Carolina’s law enforcement agencies dedicate their careers to serving and protecting our communities. We all benefit from the safety, security, and protection they provide.

“North Carolina’s parks are integral to our state’s quality of life and economy. We are all grateful that so many organizations and agencies came together to open Paddy Mountain Park for future generations of North Carolinians to enjoy.” — Gov. Josh Stein
