It never fails to amaze me how people that move in this area do not know their behind from their head when it comes to where they are.
The bus wreck on 902 was on TV. It was stated it was in Bear Creek ,, but in fact it was in the Hickory Grove community less than a mile from the Hickory Grove Baptist Church . The arts incubator has a event stated in Bear Creek ,, 8.5 Miles down Siler City Glendon Rd ,, Unless Bear Creek has annexed ,, Hickory Grove ,, then annexed Harpers Cross Roads ,, its in Harpers Cross Roads . If you go down Siler City Glendon 8.5 miles your in the Harpers Cross Roads community . If you go thought Harpers on Siler City you don’t run back into Bear Creek ,, you go to Glendon , Red Hill and several other communities in that direction .
I have said this before and I will say it again – if you haven’t lived here all your life don’t open your mouth until you learn to speak with the natives.
If you are going to argue the point ,, I am less than one mile from Bear Creek Baptist Church ,, we ,, all of the neighbors are in Bear Creek community ,, but ,, I am in the Gulf township according to the maps ,, if you go by old townships ,, the county isn’t cut out correctly according to the comminutes names . In any event ,,life long members of these communities aren’t happy about having their neighborhoods moved around by misnaming them .
