SUMMARY:City of Hendersonville Roadside Mowing Starts April 27
DESCRIPTION:The City of Hendersonville Public Works Department will be conducting roadside mowing on City streets starting April 27 and continuing until late September. Roadside vegetation management is an important part of keeping the transportation network safe and accessible. Regular mowing and trimming improves visibility of traffic signs\, preserves sightlines for motorists\, cyclists\, and pedestrians\, and helps keep sidewalks clear of overhanging limbs\, branches\, and other obstructions. \n\n“Maintaining safe and accessible streets and sidewalks requires regular attention to vegetation along our roadways\,” said Assistant City Manager – Public Services Brent Detwiler. “Our Public Works team uses side-arm mowing to efficiently manage vegetation along more than 68 miles of City streets\, helping keep sightlines open and ensuring roads\, bike lanes\, and sidewalks remain safe and accessible for everyone in our community.” \n\nBecause of the large number of roadway miles the City maintains\, side-arm mowing is the most effective and efficient method for managing roadside vegetation on a citywide basis. Property owners can play an important role by helping keep vegetation on their property trimmed back from the public right-of-way and sidewalks. \n\nFor homes adjacent to roadways\, bushes\, shrubs\, tree limbs\, and other vegetation should be kept out of the roadway and maintained approximately 1-2 feet behind the curb or edge of pavement with a recommended vertical clearance of approximately 16 feet above the road surface. \n\nFor properties with sidewalks\, owners are encouraged to keep sidewalks fully clear and accessible by trimming vegetation so that pedestrians have an unobstructed walking path.  As a general guideline\, sidewalks should remain clear to a minimum height of 8 feet\, and no vegetation\, limbs\, shrubs\, or other objects should extend into the walking path. \n\nKeeping sidewalks clear is especially important to ensure safe passage for individuals using wheelchairs\, walkers\, strollers\, and other mobility devices\, and to help maintain an accessible pedestrian route for all users. \n\nProperty owners near intersections are also asked to trim vegetation and remove debris to preserve clear sightlines for motorists entering and exiting intersections. \n\nResidents’ assistance in maintaining vegetation adjacent to their property helps improve public safety\, reduce the need for side-arm mowing impacts near private landscaping\, and support accessible travel throughout the community. \n\nFor more information about the roadside mowing program\, please visit https://www.hendersonvillenc.gov/public-works or contact the City’s Public Works Department at 828-697-3084.

Grier’s journey to becoming one of the \ngreatest flat-pick guitarists in the world started at a young age at the feet of Bluegrass legend\, \nBill Monroe. Grier’s father Lamar Grier was a member of “Bill Monroe’s Bluegrass Boys” in the \nmid-1960s. David quickly found a strong passion for guitar and began to develop what is now \nhis own world-renowned distinctive style.  \nThe final concert of the series is on June 14 th and features the transatlantic folk group\, The \nForeign Landers. Rooted in bluegrass and Celtic tradition\, the Foreign Landers create their \nown sound with reflective songwriting and enchanting singing shaped by lives lived across \nborders.

Also featuring Nate Sabat on bass and Julian Pinelli on fiddle. \n“We are excited to continue the great music this Spring with Music in the Vines." says Paul \nConroy\, Executive Director of the HSO.  To start the year we will feature four groups with \nunique styles and backgrounds.  A perfect match with the Marked Tree Vineyard environment.” \n  \nAll performances will be at the newly opened “Crush Pad” at Marked Tree and begin at 6:30pm. \nTickets start at $25 general admission\, and a limited number of premium reserved table seating is \nalso available.

SUMMARY:GODSPELL Coming to Hendersonville May 2026\, Completely Reimagined for Today
DESCRIPTION:Experience GODSPELL like\nyou’ve never seen it before. In every generation\, a community gathers around a story\nthat refuses to stay quiet. Staging GODSPELL in 2026 isn’t just an act of theater—it’s an\nact of hope. Now\, more than ever\, the world needs its people to seek justice\,\nforgiveness\, hope\, and love using all available paths. That’s why PilgrimQuests is\npresenting the beloved musical GODSPELL May 20-24 “under the tent at Laurel Green”\nin Hendersonville\, NC.\nGODSPELL\, (conceived and originally directed by John-Michael Tebelak with music and\nnew lyrics by Stephen Schwartz) and currently directed by retired priest Philip Wiehe\, will\ntransform Laurel Green Park into an immersive theatrical experience for six\nperformances only. The production features Joff Masukawa in the role of Jesus and\nBud Murphy in the roles of John the Baptist and Judas. It explores themes of\n“neighboring” and kindness and love\, offering audiences an inspiring\, high-energy take\non the parables and passion story of Jesus.\n“Bringing GODSPELL to life in Laurel Park allows us to break the fourth wall in ways a\ntraditional theater cannot\,” says Philip Wiehe. “This is a raw\, immediate production\ndesigned specifically for this space and this moment. It’s a reminder that joy can still\nerupt in unexpected places\, even in a tent set up on a patch of Carolina ground. And to\nbe honest\, I’ve always believed the gospel lands best when there’s laughter and\nsawdust.”\nThis production’s setting is unique – the physical therapy area in a senior living center.\nAn inter-generational cast to represent residents\, care-givers\, and visitors will employ an\nexercise bike\, a set of stairs\, a walker…maybe even a Pilates ball. The key concept is\nthat half the cast were teenagers when GODSPELL first became a “thing.” \n#GodspellNOW\, Page 2 \nProduction Details:\n Show Dates/Times:\nWednesday\, May 20\, 7:30 pm\nThursday\, May 21\, 7:30 pm\nFriday\, May 22\, 7:30 pm\nSaturday\, May 23\, 2:30 pm\nSaturday\, May 23\, 7:30 pm\nSunday\, May 24\, 2:30 pm\n Location: Under the Tent at Laurel Green\, 5th Ave W & White Pine Dr\,\nLaurel Park\, NC 28739\n Tickets: $10-$45 available at PilgrimQuests.com\n Running Time: Approximately two hours with one intermission
