Hillsville’s version of Americana – Kevin’s Barber Shop down on Main Street ! It’s as close to Mayberry as it gets !

Kevin’s shop has such a throwback feel to it, across the board. Like Norm on the old sitcom Cheers, a place where everyone knows your name, and the others waiting for their turn in the historic chair 💺.

Today is Thursday and once again Kevin has a full house 🏠. The vibe is always relaxed and takes me back to time where life felt less complicated. The topic of the day is about 🐟🐠 and catching the big one.

Kevin is good natured about the reason why folks wait in line for a haircut. The glass half-empty says he runs the only Barber Shop in town so there’s no choice.

Living in the Class half-full, I want to believe its because people feel at home here and they can visit with old friends and make new ones during their stay.

If you find yourself looking for a way to take a trip back in time, the building has been here since 1950 as a Barber Shop from Day 1. The Worrell Family 👪 took over back in 1984 and seven years later, Kevin joined the Family Business !

Welcome 🙏 to Thursday May 8th as we have a slate of Cavaliers in Action 🎬, weather permitting…

Four teams set to defend The Hill and two more taking road trips. Boys Tennis 🎾 heads over to Floyd County and Junior Varsity Baseball ⚾️ travels to Independence.

Soccer ⚽️ Week continues and its Youth Night at Tommy Thompson Field as the Cavaliers host the Buffalo🐃.

Varsity Baseball ⚾️ continues its drive 🚗 towards a regular season Championship with first pitch set for 6pm versus Grayson County.

Now we just need Mother Nature to play nice…
