New voices are joining our lineup. New programs are being introduced. And every addition gives us another opportunity to connect you with the people, places, ideas and experiences that make the Lake Norman community such a special place to live.
This week, we’re rolling out the welcome mat for three exciting additions to LKNConnect.
Meet Julie Jetzer. Meet the team from Swanky Straws. And meet Glenn Slezak.
Three very different programs. Three new voices. And three more reasons to stay connected.
We’re excited to welcome Julie Jetzer to the LKNConnect family with her new program, The Clues Within – The Body Knows.
Julie will invite us to become more curious about ourselves—to pay attention, ask questions and explore the clues our bodies may be giving us.
It’s a different kind of conversation, and one we believe will add another important dimension to the growing variety of voices and perspectives you’ll find on LKNConnect.
Welcome to LKNConnect, Julie. We’re delighted to have you with us.
Raise a glass, Lake Norman!
We’re delighted to welcome Swanky Straws and their new weekly feature, Worth the Pour.
Lake Norman has no shortage of interesting places to enjoy a cocktail, discover a new wine, try a local beer or simply spend some time with friends. But Worth the Pour is going to be about more than what’s in the glass.
It’s about the experience.
Where did you go? What did you discover? What made the place memorable? And, most importantly, was it worth the pour?
The Swanky Straws team will be getting out around Lake Norman, making discoveries and taking us along for the ride.
Welcome to LKNConnect, Swanky Straws. We’ll raise a glass to that!
Football season is here—and LKNConnect is getting into the game.
We’re excited to welcome Glenn Slezak and a brand-new weekly Fantasy Football feature to the LKNConnect lineup.
Every fantasy player knows the questions.
Who starts? Who sits? Who’s the sleeper nobody is talking about? Which matchup looks great on paper—and which one could ruin your entire Sunday?
Glenn will join us each week with observations, information and ideas to help fantasy football fans navigate the season.
Whether you’re playing for a championship, bragging rights or simply trying to avoid that last-place finish, there will be something here for you.
Welcome to LKNConnect, Glenn. Game on!
While we’re welcoming three new additions, the rest of LKNConnect isn’t slowing down.
Every week our contributors are helping you discover more of Lake Norman—from restaurants, nightlife and live music to family activities, local businesses, community stories, recipes, history, financial information and the people who make this community interesting.
And our growing collection of Lake Norman Guides makes it even easier to answer some of the questions we all ask:
Where should we eat?
What’s happening this weekend?
Where can we hear live music?
What can we do with the family?
What haven’t we discovered yet?
That’s increasingly what LKNConnect is about.
When we started LKNConnect, the idea was simple: create a place where Lake Norman could connect.
That idea continues to grow.
We’re not interested in simply telling you that a restaurant exists. We want you to experience dining there.
We don’t simply want to list a local business. We want you to meet the people behind it.
We don’t simply want to tell you there’s something happening this weekend. We want to help you get out and experience it.
And we don’t simply want to publish contributors.
We want to introduce you to interesting people with something worthwhile to share.
That’s why this week’s announcement means so much to us.
Julie Jetzer. Swanky Straws. Glenn Slezak.
They each bring something different to LKNConnect—and together they make our community of voices a little bigger, a little broader and a lot more interesting.
Welcome aboard, Julie, Swanky Straws and Glenn.
We’re glad you’re here.
