?I moved away from Catawba County for college and quickly came back because I always knew I wanted to raise my family here. However, Leadership Catawba truly opened my eyes to the treasure we have in our county. I could spend hours talking about the opportunities, growth, places and things to do in our part of North Carolina. We are surrounded by people who are willing to collaborate with one another to make Catawba County the best it can be ? that is both an amazing and rate thing in our world today.?
