The cities will compete against 17 others for the award in Denver next month. Finalists were selected by the National Civic League, and this year's program spotlights community-wide initiatives that honor and benefit veterans and military families.
The All-America City Award recognizes community-based efforts and civic involvement to solve problems. Since the award was created in 1949, over 600 cities have won this honor.
Many North Carolina towns have won the All-America City Award, including Dunn (1989), Raleigh (1974-75), Wilmington (1965), Winston-Salem (1959, 1964), Fayetteville (1984-85, 2001, 2011), Durham (1982-83) and High Point (1962).
