Pleasant Hines Park in Southern Pines. \nThis dedication follows a 2025 decision by the Southern Pines Town Council to rename the facility formerly known simply as “Pool Park” to honor the legacy of J. Pleasant Hines\, the first mayor of West Southern Pines\, and to officially designate the swimming facility as the Joe R. Wynn Pool. The ceremony marks the official transition and celebrates these two figures who have been instrumental to the West Southern Pines community. \nAdditional details for the celebration are still to come\, but the ceremony is expected to kick off the 2026 summer swim season!

SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting of Rufus Barringer Civil War Round Table
DESCRIPTION:The May Meeting of the Rufus Barringer Civil War Round Table will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday\, May 21\, 2026\, at the Civic Club on the corner of Pennsylvania and Ashe St. in Southern Pines. Socializing begins at 6:30 p.m. Our speaker will be Jim Burnett\, and the title of his presentation will be “Against All Odds: How the Second Battle of Sabine Pass Changed the Civil War in Texas.” \nOver the years\, our CWRT has had very few presentations about the important Trans-Mississippi Civil War. This key battle is thoroughly discussed in Jim’s book\, Saltgrass Prairie Saga: A German American Family in Texas\, which was published by Texas A&M University Press in 2025. It was selected by the Texas State Historical Association as the 2026 winner of the Kate Broocks Bates Award for Historical Research. \nThe book covers both the military and home front aspects of the Civil War in Texas\, as viewed through the experiences of a family who came to the state from a small German village in 1845. They settled on the Texas coastal prairie east of Houston\, became firmly established as rural Texans\, and then found themselves caught up in the War. Seven members of this family served in several CSA units\, something of an anomaly for Texans of German heritage. \nThe first and second battles of Sabine Pass and the battle of Galveston were all fought within fifty miles of this family’s farms. Jim’s talk draws extensively upon first-hand accounts in a large collection of letters\, two diaries\, military reports\, and other archival sources. \nJim Burnett holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Texas A&M University. He began writing following a thirty-year career with the National Park Service and is the author of three non-fiction books and more than fifty feature articles. He is a member of the American Society of Journalists and Authors and our Civil War Round Table. \nMeetings are open to the public. For more details about this meeting\, contact Matt Farina at 910.246.0452 or mafarina@aol.com.  The Rufus Barringer Civil War Round Table is a 501(c)(3)\, incorporated\, non-profit\, educational organization. The purpose of the organization is to promote\, educate\, and further stimulate interest in\, and discussion of\, all aspects of the Civil War period. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Traveling Global War on Terror (GWOT) Memorial Flag Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Army Airborne & Special Operations Museum is hosting the traveling Global War on Terror (GWOT) Memorial Flag in its Reflection Garden from May 3rd-May 22rd. This moving tribute\, standing 6 feet tall and 28 feet wide\, honors approximately 7\,000 fallen heroes and Gold Star Families through a design that mimics a flag draped over a service member’s casket. \nThe memorial is composed of nearly 7\,000 dog tags—arranged alphabetically through 2019 and chronologically thereafter—and includes 50 gold stars recognizing Gold Star Families nationwide. Visitors can also see a mahogany battlefield cross sculpted by female veteran artist Alicia Dietz displayed in front of the flag. This powerful symbol of sacrifice and honor serves to raise awareness and provides a space for the community to witness a rise in remembrance for our nation’s heroes. \nTags are in alphabetical order ranging from September 11th\, 2001-December 31st\, 2019; thereafter the tags are in chronological order of the date Killed in Action (KIA).
