Where in Carolina
Country is This?

The June “Where Is This” photo by Wake Electric member Corliss Furbert features a unique set of fingers holding onto a U.S. quarter. The “For a Dollar and a Dream: A Monument to Lost Wages” sculpture by Allison Baker is located at the WNC Sculpture Center and Park on Patterson School Drive off NC Highway 268 in Lenoir, Caldwell County. It commemorates the 60th anniversary of the first US State Lottery. According to Baker, the two fingers clutching a coin symbolize hope and the role of chance in the quest for the American Dream. The winning entry chosen at random from all correct submissions came from Gayle Jones of Boone, a Blue Ridge Energy member.
