Your One-Stop Source for All Things Lake Norman

I’m Mamie—a Lake Norman local and lifelong fan of everything this community has to offer. After years of working in local media, connecting with small businesses, and covering life around the lake, I realized something was missing: a single place where people could find everything they actually want to know—without having to scroll through a hundred different pages or outdated calendars.

That’s how Live Work Play LKN was born.

Every Thursday, I’ll be curating and sharing what’s happening from Huntersville to Statesville—and every town, dock, and downtown in between. Whether it’s a food truck Friday, a kid-friendly concert in Cornelius, a job opening in Troutman, or a million-dollar home on the market in Mooresville, you’ll find it here.

This isn’t just a newsletter—it’s your weekly guide to Lake Norman life.

• Want to know what events are worth showing up to this weekend? We’ve got it.

• Looking for a new job or a career switch that keeps you close to home? It’s in there.

• Curious about real estate trends or just love window-shopping waterfront homes? We’ve got that too.

• Plus: farmer’s markets, festivals, insider tips, small business spotlights, and local stories that make you feel more rooted right where you are.

Whether you’re new to the area or you’ve been here since before Exit 28 had a diverging diamond, Live Work Play LKN is your go-to for staying connected, exploring more, and making the most of life around the lake.

Got something we should know about? An event, business, or opportunity that deserves a shoutout? Send it our way at community@wsicnews.com—we’d love to hear from you!

Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to sign up for the newsletter so you never miss a beat, and follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay in the loop between issues.

Let’s do this, Lake Norman—together.
