Here are the top three stories in Mooresville today:

1. It's getting closer to March 4, the day of the Mooresville Day 150th Birthday Festival which will take place downtown from 12-4 p.m. Mark your calendars for this special occasion.

2. When you’re looking for a new place, keeping tabs on all the latest listings can be a laborious task. That’s why we here at Patch have stepped in and done the initial work for you.
   Here's a handy list of the five newest houses to go up for sale in and around the Mooresville area — such as a house in the Davidson area with 2 beds and 2 baths for $400,000, and another with 3 beds and 5 baths for $1.6 million. (Mooresville Patch)
3. You are invited to the Heritage House in Mooresville, on Sunday, March 26 from 12 – 4 p.m. by Mahogany Brown Bridal for the Bridal Extravaganza. Come and enjoy a showcase of bridal gowns, shopping, music, bridal vendors, appetizers and champagne. This event allows brides to see, touch and try on the gowns that will be available at Mahogany Brown Bridal in Downtown Concord at 9 Union St, Ste 150, Concord, NC but also gives them the opportunity to meet the designers. Mahogany Brown Bridal has teamed up with Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome Fund to host the Bridal Extravaganza. Mahogany Brown Bridal has committed to donating a portion of all sponsorships to the Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome Fund. Hope to see you at the event.
