Mike Moore, media, the first place to hear Rockingham County News and information. News is sponsored by Lane's Family Pharmacy and Home Health Care. The Rockingham County Jail is receiving a grant from the NC Department of Public Safety to establish a medication assisted treatment program, approximately $740,000 to help new inmates being admitted with substance abuse issues. It begins in late summer to early fall. The goal is to help reduce the effects of withdrawals from heroin, fentanyl, and other opioid-based drugs. The program also provides increased mental health services. It's a partnership between the Rockingham County Jail Department of Health and Human Services, Emergency Services, District Attorney's Office, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Daymark Recovery Services, and Southern Health Partners. The Rockingham County Animal Shelter has taken in more than 30 dogs since Monday, and is now filled to capacity. All pets, dogs, and cats are available for adoption for as low as $1. It needs to be vaccinated, microchipped, spayed, neutered, and heart-warm tested. For a complete list of all pets, go to RockinghamCountyAnimalShelter.org. Adoption hours Monday through Saturday, 1-4.30pm. In business news, Badcock and Moore and Cahn's Home Plus is closing a total of 100 stores, including Eden, one of seven in North Carolina, along with Virginia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida. The company is expected to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Eden started markdowns about two weeks ago and has a maximum of 90 days to sell everything. An important reminder from Lane's family pharmacy. It's National Higher of Veteran Day. The best way to honor a veteran is to hire one. Many skills gained in the military world translate to the civilian world. North Carolina is the most military and veteran-friendly state in the nation, with almost 800,000 veterans. The other day, I thanked a veteran for his service. You know what he said? I'd do it all over again. Lane's family pharmacy, NC14 Eden.

McDonald's likes the action it's getting on its $5 value meal so much it's decided to keep it going. In a system-wide memo, McDonald's sent out and obtained by CNBC, company brass said that nearly 100% of its restaurant operators voted to extend the promotion past its original end date. The Federal Trade Commission has issued orders to eight companies that offer surveillance pricing to explain how they impact customers' privacy. The companies provide demographic data to merchants that allows them to charge some customers more for the same item than others.

Welcome to July 25th on the National Day calendar. Today, we're pairing some classic flavors and enjoying a nostalgic ride. National Wine and Cheese Day celebrates the perfect pairing of this dynamic duo. Wine and cheese have been enjoyed together for centuries, with each enhancing the flavors of the other. But did you know that the practice of pairing wine and cheese dates back to ancient Roman tines? Who knew? Whether you prefer a bold red with aged cheddar or a crisp white with some creamy brie, take time today to savor the delightful combination of some wine and cheese. Have you seen our producer, Chris? No. Where'd he go? Well, I seen some wine and cheese waiting here for us, but now it's gone. I have a feeling that he's in a corner somewhere. I'm just saying. It's gone. I think he should run to the store. From sophisticated variants to childhood fun, it's also National Mary-Go-Round Day. A merry-go-round, or carousel, has been a beloved amusement park ride for generations. The oldest operating carousel in the United States is located in Watch Hill, Rhode Island, and dates back to 1867. With its whimsical animals and catchy music, the merry-go-round brings joy and nostalgia to writers of all ages. Today, take a spin, and relive the magic of this classic ride. Windsor, last time you went on a merry-go-round. It's probably been a couple years. Wow, really? I get busy easily going fast. Did you ever push other siblings or kids on a merry-go-round when you were a kid? Oh, yeah, for sure. That was actually my better memories than the fancy ones at amusement parks. Do you push kids off the merry-go-round? I knew you were going to go there. That's a better question. I'm not a bully. I'm LaToya Johnson. I'm Marlo Anderson. Thank you for joining us on our journey to celebrate every day. Join us for all of our adventures on Facebook and Instagram at Destination Celebration Show. Until next time, keep celebrating.
