Tarboro needs more places to eat, more than fast food on the weekends. We need hot food like a K&W or Cracker Barrell, beside Abram's, Stacks and Cottons. It's not right for our people to be going to Rocky Mount and Greenville to eat when we could get places here that aren't fast food.

I have seen over time when Lowe's came a Cracker Barrell came. What happened here? Can't say we are too small for them to come we have the places here to make it happen. I have been here and seen more things come, but we have a lot to offer here with what places that have left that are already setup, all we need is the people to stand up and get together with these things.

We turn 250 years old and this town needs to come together and help show Tarboro and Edgecombe County we mean to not be forgotten.

Thank you for your time and let Tarboro start back and “God Bless the U.S.”
