# Apex Today: Your Sunday Morning Update
Good morning, Apex! Today is Sunday, May 11, 2025, and there's plenty happening in our beautiful "Peak of Good Living" town.
The Memorial Day Ceremony is just around the corner, so mark your calendars to honor our fallen heroes[1]. This annual tradition brings our community together in remembrance and gratitude.
In local news, the Peak City Pig Fest 2025 is underway! Time to "cue" up your taste buds for some of the best barbecue in North Carolina[2]. The festival has drawn crowds from across the region, with pitmasters competing for top honors.
Unfortunately, we must report a tragic incident that occurred during a custody exchange where a child's grandmother was killed. Local authorities have charged the father in connection with this case[2].
For those planning outdoor activities today, be aware that the Apex Jaycee Park Softball Field remains closed until 4pm[3]. The closure is part of regular maintenance to ensure our recreational facilities remain in top condition.
Community development continues to thrive with the Saunders Lot Reconstruction Project making progress[1]. Meanwhile, the town's Meter System Upgrade Project is well underway, improving infrastructure for residents[1].
Looking for enrichment opportunities? The CommUniversity program offers workshops for residents to grow and learn, while the Learning Lunch Series provides educational sessions in a relaxed environment[1].
Don't forget to check out the 5th year celebration events happening throughout town this week[1], and consider applying for the Neighborhood Registry Program, which supports community building initiatives[1].
For those keeping track of town governance, remember to follow the local board meetings through the Council Agendas & Minutes section of the town website[1].
The Halle Cultural Arts Center continues to offer theater performances, studio space, and gallery exhibitions for our artistically inclined residents[1].
As we enter mid-May, Apex continues to live up to its reputation as one of America's best places to live. Enjoy your Sunday, neighbors!
