WA X H AW ’ S V I S ION Waxhaw is a friendly, vibrant, prosperous town where history and creativity build an enduring, safe and healthy community for people of all ages to live, learn, work, play or grow a business. TOWN MANAGER’S MESSAGE It’s hard to believe another year has come and gone. There is a lot for Waxhaw to be proud of in 2019. Our town has prioritized creating a community where we can connect, learn, and engage with each other as residents and neighbors. To round up the year, we will celebrate the outgoing Commissioners and swear in our newly elected officials at 5:30 PM on Tuesday, December 10th in the Waxhaw PD Community Room. If you’d like to be more involved with the town, Waxhaw is seeking volunteers to serve on appointed Boards & Commissions. If you would like to get involved in our wonderful community, please read more on page 7. We hope you’ll take advantage of the robust schedule of holiday events here in Waxhaw. There are countless family friendly events for the month of December happening in downtown Waxhaw and surrounding areas. They reflect our town’s growing diversity and are a great way to experience our downtown area in a festive light. You can find photos of this past weekend’s events and details of upcoming holiday events on pages 5-6. Thank you for another wonderful year in Waxhaw. We look forward to teaching and learning more with you so that our community will be even more connected in 2020. We wish you and your families a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
