The Salisbury Fire Department will host a “Weathering the Storm – Emergency & Safety Preparedness Fair,” designed to provide residents with information on how to prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies, Saturday, March 21, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Salisbury Civic Center.

Beginning on Monday, March 9, the Salisbury VA Health Care System (HCS) will only allow vehicle traffic through its Hedrick St. gate for COVID-19 (coronavirus) screenings. Per a news release “all persons entering any Salisbury VA HCS property will be screened for the COVID-19 virus. Please allow extra time to ensure that you arrive at your appointment on time.” As a result, all Brenner Avenue drivers can expect major delays.

The Salisbury-Rowan Sports Hall of Fame was created in 2001 to honor individuals, living or deceased, who are native to, or have worked or performed in Rowan County. We are currently accepting nominations through April 20, 2020. For more information call (704) 638-5286 or email sclar@salisburync.gov.
