SELMA CYCLEPATHS The Selma Cyclepaths Club was formed over 30 years ago to raise awareness and money for the Multiple Sclerosis Society through participation in the annual Bike MS ride in New Bern. Since then we have raised more than $2million dollars for this worthy cause. Finding a cure for MS is near and dear to our hearts as many of our members either live with MS or have close ties to someone who does. Our fundraising work continues! On September 9 & 10, twenty nine of our club

SC A N Q R C O D E TO D O N AT E !

members participated in this year’s BIKE MS ride in New Bern.

We had formal training rides from April through August to be prepared for the weekend, and most of our members rode 150 miles during the 2-day event. Our goal this year is to raise $75,000 for the MS Society whose mission is to find a cure for MS. To date we have raised over $53,000. If you would like to donate to this worthy cause please scan the QR code to be linked to the website.

Airing at the beginning of each month, we will be discussing the upcoming events for the month and talking to some of our awesome residents and businesses. The show will be available on our social media pages as well as our YouTube channel, so make sure to give them a follow so you can stay up to date with everything we have planned in 2024.

NOURISHING WELLNESS

PURE GREEN Embracing Dietary Diversity for a Healthier You!

When you hear the word “juice”, what is the first thing that comes to mind? Maybe it’s the nostalgia of having a box of Apple Juice after your first T-ball game. Or maybe it’s seeing your grandkids eyes light up as they share their favorite flavor with you on a warm summer day. But what if we told you that juice isn’t just for kids? Flowers Plantation is getting ready to welcome a brand new juice bar in the Flowers Crossroads shopping center and we can’t wait to give you all the details.

Pure Green focuses on handcrafted and made-to-order superfood smoothies, acai bowls and cold-pressed juices. Do you have a food sensitivity? Pure Green’s helpful and friendly staff will help you find a solution that you can enjoy. Pure Green even has gluten-free, dairy-free, and nut-free options available so don’t hesitate to ask which tasty treat you can have with your friends and family!

The Flowers Pure Green will be owned and operated by Cody and Danielle Sawyer. The Sawyer’s have lived in Clayton for over 15 years and are fulfilling a dream by owning a business at Flowers Plantation. “About 3 years ago, my wife and I stood on that piece of land and told ourselves that we would own a business here, in Flowers Plantation.” said Cody. “We are extremely excided to provide this amazing, active, and tight knit community the opportunity to experience the most natural and organic juice bar in Clayton!"

So start 2024 off the healthy way and swing by Pure Green for a delicious and (most importantly) nutritious way to eat your fruits and veggies. See? If you live in Flowers Plantation, you can have your juice AND drink it too.

What Are You Looking Forward To? 12 | Treasure Newsletter | January/February 2024

We asked our residents what they're most looking forward to in 2024.

Whether it's personal goals, technological advancements, travel plans, or anything else that sparks your excitement, share your hopes and anticipations for the upcoming year! And here's what they had to say...

Carolyn C. My hope is that we can cleanse the air and look to our fellow person with love. That we lift up each other, instead of tearing one another down. 2024 can be a wonderful year if we live in harmony.

FAITH, LOVE & PEACE.

Maria M. We are looking forward to continued business growth in the Flowers Crossroads area. As 15 year residents from out of state, the shopping is convenient and easily accessible. We look forward to more restaurants and home improvement businesses.

Patrick R. Starting my FIRST franchise business in Spring 2024 and helping local manufacturers with their logistical and packaging needs.

Hopefully successful enough to FINALLY break away from corporate America by year end as well as rebuild our retirement.

Courtney B. Looking forward to the "Pure Green Juice & Smoothies" location opening in Flowers. Hoping for more healthier eateries to be added.
