Greenwood is buzzing with excitement as locals gear up for a whirlwind of events and activities this season. From multi-day festivities to intimate gatherings, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. So grab your calendar, jot down these dates, and be prepared for a fun-filled November.

Embrace the Holiday Spirit!

Kicking off the holiday season is a special DIY Workshop on November 14. You can create a stunning Thanksgiving Centerpiece with vibrant flowers nestled in a pumpkin vase. It’s the perfect activity to channel your creative energy and get into the festive mood.

Not quite ready for Thanksgiving yet? There’s no shortage of pre-holiday excitement. Rev up your engines for the 5th Annual Feet 2 The Street 5K Run/Walk happening on the same day. This event raises awareness for the homeless, and you can compete for cash prizes while doing good!

Music and Arts Galore

Music lovers, mark your calendars for an array of performances throughout November. Highlights include live music at Brother Shucker’s featuring Ray Tomasino and Tommy Sims, and the highly anticipated Lander University Jazz Ensemble performance.

Nurture your love for arts with events like the Lander University Community Lecture Series where Dr. Franklin Rausch presents “Understanding South Korea”. This enlightening talk is free and open to the community, offering a unique dive into cultural insights.

Fun and Fellowship

Feeling social? Join one of the many gatherings like the Gratitude Gathering on November 15th. This free event is perfect for those who wish to celebrate recovery and progress among supportive friends in a festive setting.

On a competition note, don’t miss the lively DJ Trivia Night at Brother Shucker’s every Monday. Bring your brightest pals or come solo to challenge yourself with fun quizzes and enjoy specials during Happy Hour.

Culinary Delights and Classes

If your love language is food, you’ll be happy to know that there’s more than just music and lectures. Participate in a charcuterie class by Charcuterroni on November 22nd to learn how to craft the perfect spread for any occasion. Meanwhile, food trucks like Amaya Taco are sure to leave your taste buds singing at various events.

And speaking of food, transform your Thanksgiving on November 15th with the Chicken Salad Chick. It’s a delicious fundraiser to support the ECDE competition dance team, ensuring you indulge while making a positive impact.

Get Crafty This Fall

Feeling artsy? Attend interactive workshops like crafting Sea Glass Christmas Trees on November 23rd for a unique twist in holiday decorations. Use your handiwork skills to make beautiful keepsakes or holiday gifts.

A Heartfelt Gathering

The pinnacle of community spirit might just be the Thanksgiving feast with the ’96 family at the John Lamb center. Happening later in the month, this potluck-style gathering is set to be an evening of games, prizes, and fellowship as memories are made and shared.

So, whether you’re in the mood for music, hoping to learn something new, or simply seeking to meet people and craft new memories, Greenwood has it all. With plenty to do and celebrate, the spirit of togetherness and gratitude shines bright this November.

Spread the cheer, mark these events, and join Greenwood in embracing all the opportunities for community connection and personal joy!
