Let's make a date, sugar.
Welcome to your unofficial guide to all the best things happening ‘round town- the sips, the strolls, the festivals, and every can’t-miss moment in between. We’re lucky to call this sweet little spot home, and we’re even luckier to be in right in the middle of all the fun.
From Wine Down evenings (yes ma’am, we’re talking wine and shopping) to the cozy magic of Holiday Open House, there’s always something worth putting on lipstick for. Wing wars will have you loosening your belt, the Loblolly Festival brings all the hometown charm, and the Cookie Stroll? Let’s just say your sweet tooth will thank you.
We’ll keep this page full of what’s coming up, so whether your’e planning your girls’ day out or just looking for an excuse to slip into your cutest boots, we’ve got you covered.
Mark your calendar, grab your besties, and we’ll see you out and about — because small towns throw the biggest parties, and you are on the guest list.
