So, by the time they shoot the fireworks over the hill, you get to see the biggest part of them. We have taken some miraculous pictures over the years and have used them in promoting Granville County. Those things are inviting to visitors in our area. They may not want to be around those larger crowds, deal with traffic, or parking issues. And we don’t have that here.We have that small-town charm. And our people around here welcome them just like they’ve been around here for years. So, that’s the good part about being able to market Butner on a tourism level.” With all these plans for imminent growth, will Butner meet the challenge of maintaining its quaintness and small-town feel? McMillen, for one, believes so. “There’s been a lot of vision here in Butner,” he says. “Since we became a town in 2007, we have been thinking about the future. So the town is a blank slate. It’s at a point where we’re looking forward.” Meritage Homes ® , Setting the standard for energy-efficient homes ® and Life. Built.
