Who could ask for anything else! Opening in 2009, friends Jennele and Charlotte renovated a historic Downtown Boone storefront located at 693 West King Street, and opened Lucky Penny and Shear Shakti, two extremely unique stores in Downtown Boone!More
Jennele, the owner of Lucky Penny and graduate from Appalachian State University, has brought affordable bohemian-inspired fashion right to the 💚 of Downtown Boone. From gorgeous jewelry to hand-picked articles of clothing, Lucky Penny is a vibe in and of itself.
Located just upstairs, Shear Shakti offers a range of services, from high-quality salon services to premier esthetician experiences. Whatever you need, these two stores are here to help, and we're so happy that they call Downtown Boone home!Post is under moderationStream item published successfully.

Marge started a new discussion, River link Plan to Host Volunteer Workdays this Spring and Summer at the Southside CommunityGreen infrastructure requires regular maintenance to keep it functioning optimally! Yesterday the Water Resources team went out to Southside Community Stormwater Project to rake leaves and remove smartweed from the regenerative stormwater conveyance.
A regenerative stormwater conveyance, or rsc, is a fancy name for a constructed stream designed to slow the flow of stormwater, allowing sediment to settle out rather than being transported into the waterway. Removing invasive plants and leaf build-up allows these features to continue working as designed.
We plan to host several volunteer workdays this spring and summer at the Southside Community Stormwater Project, so keep an eye on the RiverLink calendar and sign up to help us tend this beautiful space!Post is under moderationStream item published successfully.
