The late-night hours of November 22 probably saw Til-Mar Textiles, Inc. president Jack Jackson snoozing peacefully. Little did he know, but at that very time, something was beginning to unfold at his 130,000 sq. ft. factory at 1305 Frederick St. that would bring the slumber to a screeching halt.
That event was a fire.

Chimney Rock Village, devastated by Hurricane Helene, will reopen for a Christmas celebration on Saturday, Dec. 14 from 10am to 4pm. The Christmas celebration is a one day only event and visitors will be able to tour the area.

It's time to ring in the holiday season and this year there is no better place to celebrate than in Downtown Kings Mountain with a Christmas Kings Mountain Festival featuring amazing Christmas lights, interactive experiences, and free festive fun for the entire family.
