    I did not attend the theater and on a Saturday morning, the building was locked up. But I did get a…read morechance to see the outside and the historical marker posted on the front entrance. The marker reads, "When Dr. L. J. Meroney and his sister Lena built the theater in 1905, its large seating capacity attracted professional troupes to Salisbury. Two of the most famous thespians of the day, the "Divine" Sarah Bernhardt and the glamorous Lillian Russell, performed on its stage. Also appearing here were "The March King," John Philip Sousa, and the New York Symphony Orchestra. With the advent of motion pictures, part of the building was turned into a cinema; eventually the whole theater became a movie house. Through the years the theater-movie house was known by many different names: Bijou, Fotosho, Grubb, Colonial, Strand, State, Center, and lastly, Towne Cinema. "Piedmont Players Theatre, Inc., purchased the building in 1992. After extensive renovations, they inaugurated the 1995-96 season in their new home. Once again the Meroney Theater is used for stage productions." The plaque was erected in 2006 by the Salisbury History & Art Trail. There is street parking in front and a free lot nearby.

    This theater was really Nice. I went last night to see a play by the name of A Time To Kill. It is…read morebased off the movie starring Samuel L. Jackson. Walking into the theater was a red carpet where I was greeted by 2 gentlemen with the biggest smiles who opened the door for me. As I arrived at the doors to entered the area to be seated I was handed a program and directed to my seat. Everyone was super friendly. It made me very comfortable and ready for the play. The Theater has 2 level seating (Orchestra & Balcony). I was on the lower left side which gave me an awesome view of everything. The Theatre was clean but extremely cold. I had closed toe shoes on and my toes were freezing. The Chairs were very comfortable with cushioning on the seat and back. I was impressed with the "fancy" stage that rotated 360 degrees for the different scene changes. Something like this in little ole Salisbury is pretty big. Afterwards we were directed upstairs to the 3rd for the reception. Again, the staff was super nice, I mean super. The room was huge with wooden floors. We wondered if they rented the area for private parties as it would be a nice space to hold events! In the future when I am looking for a space, I will definitely inquire! The entire theatre gave us this nice Historic/Antique feeling. It made you feel like you were a part of something great. Can't wait to attend the next production at Meroney.

    These are my favorite type of things to Yelp about. A purely positive endeavor for the good of…read morethose who need it most. An unobtrusive structure that you may not notice while driving on Rock Hill Road. The Blessing Box looks a little bit like a chicken coup. The story behind this blessing in the parking lot of a Baptist, Church in Concord is by the hands of a thoughtful, local preteen boy looking to love on the community. He was able to create a repository of food, information and inspiration. Anyone who wants can provide or partake of nonperishable items and groceries anonymously. I stopped by after admiring the gesture and decided to add a few items. I plan to do so regularly. It is written... "God loves a cheerful giver." 2 Corinthians 9:7

    We are living in such difficult times, which is why I'm excited to see one of the blessing boxes in…read moremy town, that was designed and built by one of my former Boy Scouts Carlin Crawford. As my sister and I placed various items on the shelves we couldn't help but realize how this blessing box is such a Godsend to so many families that are struggling and may not have food on their table. The Blessing box sits in the parking lot of a small church (Living Faith Church Of The Brethren) a few feet from Rock Hill Church Road, which is a pretty busy street, where people see the Blessing Box and slow down to count their blessings or be a blessing to others. The Blessing Box is always neat, well organized and very well stocked with soups, vegetables, pasta, snacks and books to name a few items. The placards on it says "Take what you need - Leave what you can," (so heart warming). The Blessing Box was Carlin's way of giving back to the community while working towards his Eagle Scout requirement, but little did he know that he would be the bridge that carries some families across. Kudos call Carlin and everyone who supports his project.
