Cherokee Scoop | March 13, 2025

Good Morning! ☀️

Top o' the mornin' to ya! With St. Patrick's Day around the corner, Cherokee County is turning greener than your neighbor's lawn after all that rain we had. Whether you're Irish every day or just on March 17th, there's plenty of shamrock-fueled fun heading our way this weekend!

While some folks will be hunting pots of gold, we're more excited about the golden opportunities popping up in our community—from championship victories to downtown transformations (no leprechaun magic required). So grab your green gear, practice your "Kiss Me I'm Irish" smile, and let's dive into what's happening before the Guinness starts flowing!

Let's get after it!
