<strong>Stanly</strong> <strong>County</strong> is a crossroads of history. Its people have<br />
helped mold and define the cultural landscape of the<br />
county, the state, and the nation for more than 10,000<br />
years. Our citizens value their history and have diligently<br />
worked together to establish repositories to safeguard the<br />
artifacts of their heritage. With so many different cultures<br />
and catalysts creating history in this “land between the<br />
rivers,” each of <strong>Stanly</strong> <strong>County</strong>’s museums is unique—from<br />
examples of Native American art and pottery in Morrow<br />
Mountain State Park to the town of Badin, where French<br />
workers modeled their new community after their own<br />
provincial villages in France. So, make sure to pause in<br />
this crossroads of history and discover the rich heritage<br />
that is <strong>Stanly</strong> <strong>County</strong>, North Carolina.<br />

OAKBORO<br />
CRUISE-IN MOVIE THEATERS<br />
Around three years ago a gentleman by the name of Jerry<br />
Crayton had an idea for the town of Oakboro to host a<br />
Cruise-In. The idea was for people to bring their classic<br />
and unique cars to the town so that visitors could enjoy<br />
the fruits of the car owner’s labor. Together with the<br />
Greater Oakboro Business Association the idea became<br />
a reality. Every fourth Friday of each month has become<br />
known as Cruise-In night in Oakboro. People from far and<br />
wide gather in this quaint town to admire these unique<br />
vehicles. The Oakboro Cruise In is the largest in North<br />
Carolina with an average of 5,000 visitors per Cruise In.<br />
It is always followed by the Burnout which is a crowd<br />
favorite. This is an event not to miss. Music, cars, great<br />
food, and wonderful people are all found in Oakboro<br />
during the Oakboro Cruise-In.<br />
BADIN ROAD DRIVE-IN<br />
The historic Badin Road Drive-In has always been a<br />
popular venue, attracting visitors from across the state.<br />
The drive-in is a great place to go to entertain the entire<br />
family, with reasonably priced tickets - just $5 for adults<br />
- it is also an affordable evening out. The drive-in features<br />
newly released films year round on two screens, the<br />
newest screen added in 2006.<br />
Shows typically start at sundown in order to<br />
accommodate triple features, intermissions and games. A<br />
playground is also on site for children.<br />
