Lucky to be Local, a community effort 97.9 The Hill and Chapelboro were able to put together thanks to Mill House PropertiesTown of Chapel Hill Economic Development, and Red Bloom Realty, has officially concluded!

Over the past weeks, we asked our friends and neighbors to tell us some of their favorite spots around town for grabbing a bite to eat, having a drink, taking a walk, fixing their car and a whole lot more. No surprises here, it turns out our community has no shortage of opinions — and no shortage of local favorites, either!
