What does Kristin like about Lenoir County? "The growth and restoration. I have seen firsthand how homes, buildings, restaurants and shops have been restored and revitalized. The community strives hard to better the neighborhoods and businesses. I've seen so much growth and change in the four years I've been here. The citizens are really motivated to make Kinston a great place to visit and live."
What is Kristin looking forward to by participating in this event? "I got asked to do it and though, 'I love to dance, so why not?!'"
