🌱FeedNC Needs Food Donations + Congratulations MPD Chief Campurciani

Good morning, Mooresville! I'm here in your inbox per usual to get you caught up on everything you need to know about what's going on in town. In today's issue, we have these stories and more...

• Food donations needed.
• Congratulations Chief Campurciani.
• Pets need homes.

But first, today's weather: Humid; an afternoon t-storm. High: 85 Low: 69.

Here are the top stories in Mooresville today:

1. Help FeedNC re-stock its shelves and support the community this Saturday from 9 to 1 p.m. as the organization hosts its annual summer supply drive at the new building, located at 2456 Charlotte Highway, Mooresville. Summer is typically a very slow donation time, and the shelves are in need of a food infusion. Reportedly, the goal is to collect 10,000 pounds of food! Can you help? (Mooresville Tribune)
2. Congratulations to Chief Campurciani of the Mooresville Police Department who was honored recently with the North Carolina Police Executives Association Keith Bulla Police Executive of the Year Award! Great job, Cheif Campurciani! (Mooresville Police Department via Facebook)
3. These pets of the week need good homes. Are you ready to share your heart and your home with a furry friend in need? If so, look no further than Petrol and Diesel. (Mooresville Tribune)
