MUSEUMS<br />

<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 />

Tucked among tall pines and stately oaks in the heart of<br />

the Uwharrie Mountains in northeaster <strong>Stanly</strong> <strong>County</strong>, the<br />

picturesque town of Badin serves as a unique gateway<br />

of a French Provincial village, reminiscent of its founders<br />

homeland.<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 />
