This wasn't my first visit to Huntersville Town Hall and it definitely won't be my last. This is…read morethe location where they conduct town meetings and such. I was on site to attend the Huntersville 101 training class. Tonight's class was on area history and we received a wealth of great information. I was very pleased with the cleanliness of the facilities and the wonderful smell of a clean room. Well, I believe the services were recently performed but nonetheless, the place looked and smelled great!

To be completely honest, I had no idea what this building had/did for the city... I would normally…read morepass it on my normal runs or when I used to ride the bus on College St... but other than knowing its building name, I had no idea. I still probably don't have a good idea of all the services the Hal Marshall Annex provides. A lot of services: health and human services, women's programs, shelters, rental assistance, among other programs can be found here in this building. The reason for my visit here was to cast my early vote for the 2016 election. Start to finish, I was bracing myself for a long line, but I was able to get my ballot cast in about 30min. The election staffers were super nice and the lady confirming my identity was surprised that I had a long first name that is comprised of two names (technically my name barely fits on my drivers license). Anyways, the touch-screen voting machines were 100% used and the line moves fairly fast. I took a hot second a couple days ago to find a website that tailors a ballot/candidates to my particular district and my options as far as candidates. The annex is an easy walk from Uptown (about 13min) and there are really no other buildings surrounding it aside from parking lots.

WOW! What a nostalgic experience. I felt like I was right back at my childhood library in Long…read moreIsland, NY with showcases, reading rooms, community rooms for tutoring and reading time for the toddlers. It was nice to see how progressive this library was from self check out stations and a plethora of children's programs. In honor of Autism Acceptance Month, the library is hosting presentations that focus on increasing the understanding and acceptance of persons with autism (register at cmlibrary.org). The program which peaked my interest the most was the Black Owned Business Showcase which is held during Black History Month. It is a chance to meet successful African America entrepreneurs from the Charlotte community from various industries for information and networking. There is also the 'Reading Check up' which is supported by Learning Ovations, Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools and Read Charlotte. It is a program that prioritizes your child's reading need and it is free of charge in Mecklenburg County. Definitely open your world of infinite possibilities by snagging yourself a library card and explore a whole new world. Thank you for having me Independence Regional!!!

It's so nice to see I'm not the only bookie out here lol. The parking was easy and organized. The book sale itself was packed but they had so many wonderful volunteers helping to steer the crowd, it was pretty seamless. They even had volunteers walking around asking if they could take your books and put them on a table to hold for you so you could keep shopping comfortably. it was great! The library has multiple stories and was very clean and quiet. I will absolutely be back soon!!

Charlotte-Mecklenburg has a number of regional libraries and they are superb in what they offer ... but the District also has some smaller facilities that can hold their own. The Myers Park Library is on the small side, and when we pulled up we thought they'd only offer adult resources ... but weren't we surprised? Besides all the usual adult and current books, they had a wonderful kids section ... probably suited to 2 to 6 year olds. The kids section is a large separate room ... all glassed in, so parents/grandparents can see in but not have to listen in. It's roomy, has just enough toys to interest half-a-dozen little ones, four computer screens with age appropriate software, hundreds of books for that age group, and a number of tables and chairs to work on. We thought the space was perfect for our 30 month old. All to say, don't write off these neighborhood libraries. They will surprise you with their resources.

If you're on Providence Rd in a certain direction during rush hour traffic, it can be a little tricky getting to the library. I ended up going farther down Providence, making a u-turn, and then taking a quick left then right into the parking lot. The women's restroom was clean. Sitting at the computer station, I could hear that the attendant near the front door was very helpful as people went to the desk to ask questions. I saw the Black History Month display, but just barely and only because I was looking for the restroom. I know that this is a smaller location, but the display should've been in a more prominent location. If you weren't coming out of a restroom or going anywhere near the room being used for a youth event, it's not easily seen at all. Hoping that wasn't done intentionally.

When I went to check out, I was encouraged not to go to a person, but to self check out myself. When I signed up, I was not offered assistance with anything.
