BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN

&ACADEMIC SUCCESS

SC's first public school for dyslexic students sees initial success story by ARIEL GILREATH | photos by WILL CROOKS

EASLEY — Andrea Bishop’s son always had a hard time in school. By fourth grade, he couldn’t grasp basic reading exercises, and when his class had recess, he often hid under the slides away from other children. Her son was diagnosed with dyslexia before he started attending Lakes and Bridges Charter School — an elementary school that just opened in Easley in August specifically for dyslexic students, and where Andrea Bishop is now a teacher. Lakes and Bridges is the only public school in South Carolina whose students are all dyslexic — the premise of the school is to attract students who either have been diagnosed with dyslexia or have early characteristics of it. Since dyslexia is typically diagnosed at about third grade, younger students at the school are screened for those signs. Since it’s a public school, the state Legis-

lature had to amend the Charter School Act to allow schools like Lakes and Bridges to specifically serve students with disabilities — other public schools cannot selectively choose their enrollment population. “Where he was [is] a phenomenal school — they’re probably in the top three in the Upstate — but they weren’t teaching him the way his brain learns,” Andrea Bishop said. “When we came here, the way he learns math, the way he learns reading, science — everything is catered to the way a dyslexic child learns.” The school uses the Orton-Gillingham approach to instruction — a technique created in the 1930s that breaks down phonicsbased learning with multisensory strategies. It’s the same approach Camperdown Academy — a private dyslexia-focused school in Greenville — uses, and also where Heidi Bishop, principal of Lakes and Bridg-

Andrea Bishop shows first grade students how the hands of a clock work at Lakes and Bridges.

es, worked for 26 years. “He’s actually a different child here. He’s happier, he’s more confident — he’s a completely different child at school and at home,” Andrea Bishop said. “Here, he feels successful.” For Heidi Bishop, the move to Lakes and Bridges was centered on access — other schools that target dyslexic students in the state are private and require tuition. Since Lakes and Bridges is a charter school, it’s public, it’s open to students throughout the state, and it’s free. “It was important for me to be a part of something that was accessible to everybody, not just a very small percent of the population,” Heidi Bishop said. Currently, Lakes and Bridges is sharing space with Crosswell Elementary School in the Pickens County School District, but next year it’s moving into its own building

Each student has a chair that can rock back and forth, allowing students to get out energy in an unobtrusive way while they learn. Many of the tabletops are also whiteboards, and the rest can convert from sitting to standing desks. “Our furniture lets them have the opportunity to move — everything we do is multisensory,” Andrea Bishop said.

3 MY TH:

Dyslexia is a problem of intelligence/vision/laziness.

FA C T:

Kids with dyslexia are often just as smart as their peers and are trying hard, they just need a little more help to make progress. Vision does not factor into dyslexia — it’s a neurocognitive disorder. Systematic multisensory instruction, such as OrtonGillingham (OG)-based instruction, has proven to be successful in schools for dyslexic children. This is the curriculum that Lakes & Bridges employs.

student-teacher ratio of 10:1. The small class sizes and one-on-one attention are key for their students, who have a harder time completing reading and writing tasks. The Yale Center for Dyslexia and Creativity estimates about 20% of the population has dyslexia — it’s the most common language-based learning disability. It’s a myth that dyslexic children see and write letters backward — children are considered dyslexic if they have unexpected difficulty reading and learning to write but the intelligence to do so. “It is most commonly due to a difficulty in phonological processing (the appreciation of the individual sounds of spoken language), which affects the ability of an indi-

vidual to speak, read, spell and, often, learn a second language,” according to the center. Heidi Bishop said Lakes and Bridges is not only the first public school in the state that solely targets dyslexic students, but one of only a handful in the country. Along with students from Pickens, Greenville, Spartanburg, and Anderson counties, the school is also seeing families move from across the country to send their children to the school — from North Carolina, Arizona, North Dakota, Ohio, and Massachusetts. So far, Lakes and Bridges has about 40 students on its waitlist. “Every child deserves this kind of education, not just the child with means,” Heidi Bishop said.

SHOOTER Local archer Danielle Han shoots competitively, teaches kids n story by MELODY CUENCA | photos by WILL CROOKS

Most people garden, hike, draw, or binge-watch the same two shows as hobbies. But, Danielle Han shoots arrows at colorful targets in the backyard of her home. Moving to Greenville for an engineering position at Hubbell Lighting, Han sought out two things. “I needed to have a place to shoot, and I needed to have a Trader Joe’s,” she says, laughing. “I know I’m crazy.” With no public ranges nearby, Han spent five months searching for a home with enough outdoor space to shoot. “My mom would do [archery] all the time, and she loved to teach us,” Han says. She learned archery in Girl Scouts as a kid in San Diego. Han never shot competitively and instead focused on ballet. “I did six days a week, lived in the studio, only did ballet,” she says. “And that was my life until I was 21 or 22.” After college, ballet wasn’t as enjoyable for Han. “So I was looking for something to do and going through activities I en-

square, Han looks down the path to a big, colorful target, 76 yards away on a raised platform. “Even when it’s frustrating, it’s calming,” she says of archery. Han also established the JOAD program at Saluda River Archery. She enjoys teaching kids while improving her own shooting. Her goal is to have her students compete against her in the adult class one day. “I’ve done two full circuits now,” she says. Competing to earn a spot on the United States Archery Team, which is the feeder for the Olympics, Han spends all of her vacation time traveling the country for competitions. “What I enjoy now most about [archery] is how calming it is for me,” she says. Learning to stay in her “bubble,” Han blocks everyone and everything out while shooting. “Once you learn how to shoot, it’s all a mental game,” she says. She grabs her bow and arrows, heads outside, stretches, and gets started. “It’s just my shot process and my equipment, me, the target — that’s it,” she says. When she’s not outside with her bow in hand, Han is chilling with her two cats, Murphy and Pabu.

OPINION

BEHAVIORAL HEALTH

Recovery from substance use disorders and mental health should be celebrated

Behavioral health is a broad discipline that includes both mental health and substance use disorders. It is a term used by healthcare organizations, insurance companies, government agencies and regulatory bodies, but not by most mental health organizations. It is used even less frequently by substance use disorder providers. This is a very unusual and troubling reality when you consider that about half of those with substance use disorders will also have a mental health diagnosis at some point in their life (National Institute of Health) and that substance use disorders is included alongside all other mental health diagnoses by The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Illness. Fortunately, the Southeastern Symposium on Mental Health breaks out of these artificial constraints by bringing together a diverse group of collaborators that represent a wide variety of perspectives and both sides of the

behavioral health fence. As a person in long term recovery from an Opioid Use Disorder, and as the CEO of FAVOR Greenville, I am thrilled that recovery from substance use disorder is celebrated at a mental health symposium. FAVOR Greenville is honored to represent families and individuals impacted by substance use disorder at this year’s symposium. We find ourselves in uncharted territory where substance use disorders are concerned. The term “opioid epidemic” is more accurately an overdose epidemic. If you include suicide and deaths via chronic alcohol use, annual death rates climb to over 160,000. These outcomes represent the highest number of preventable “behavioral health deaths” ever recorded by the Center for Disease Control. Overdoses, naturally, garner most of the attention. It’s very hard to reconcile the exponential increase in fatalities, and it’s easy to see why this has been the focus of

our country. Overdose deaths and opioid use disorders (OUDs) have increased at an alarming rate in the past decade with tragic consequences nationwide. South Carolina has been particularly impacted by the opioid crisis and ranks in the CDC’s highest quartile for opioid prescriptions per person. Across the state, admissions for treatment for opioid use have tripled in the past 10 years. Greenville County is, unfortunately, near the top of the list in terms of overdose deaths second only to Charleston County. There are many initiatives underway to address this problem head on like increased access to treatment services, medications, and innovative emergency department programs. Prevention and education in schools is also on the agenda, as well as early intervention. At FAVOR Greenville we view events such as the Southeastern Symposium on Mental

Health as an additional component for ending this overdose crisis because community awareness, collaboration, and advocacy are important. Fragmented systems where people do not work together fuel the crisis. Addiction thrives in the shadow of stigma and shame. The Symposium’s focus on reducing stigma and discrimination and informing public policy is a key aspect of changing outcomes. We cannot build enough rehabs, open enough recovery centers, or hire enough counselors to end the destruction. We need the entire community engaged in this fight. Together we recover, and recovering individuals and families thrive in supportive communities. FAVOR Greenville is grateful to the Symposium supporters and Prisma Health’s leadership in this process, and we are proud to be part of the Executive Committee.

CITY NOTES

GREENLINK GROWTH

n story by ARIEL TURNER

City Council approves $425,000 for Greenlink operations

City Council voted to appropriate $425,021 in the General Fund for Greenlink at the May 13 formal City Council meeting, bringing the City’s total funding for transit to $4,187,904 (including contributed services) this year. The allocated funds come from the City of Greenville’s portion of a settlement over governance of what was then known as the Greenville Health System, now Prisma Health. In future years, the city plans to earmark the Prisma money (through Greenville Health Authority) for Greenlink operations, increasing the city’s annual contribution to more than $1 million, Mayor Knox White said before the formal City Council meeting April 22. That plan was confirmed this month by City Council, which expressed its intent to continue using the GHA funding to support Greenlink operations in FY2020 and beyond, subject to annual appropriation. Part of the funding will go toward the local match for Greenlink’s application to the

Federal Transit Administration’s Low or No Emissions (Low-No) grant program for four additional Proterra electric buses and charging infrastructure. Proterra is an all-electric bus company that has a manufacturing plant in Greenville. The remaining funds will be used to improve bus stops serving Prisma Health facilities in the city. For the upcoming fiscal year, the City’s total cash contributions to Greenlink will be in excess of $1,200,000. With $606,000 in local match commitments and 63 letters of support from the community, Greenlink is requesting $3.468 million from the Federal Transit Administration to purchase four 35-foot buses and their charging equipment. In 2017, Greenville Transit Authority received a $1.45 million Low-No grant, which was used to purchase two of Greenlink’s four new 40-foot Proterra Catalyst E2 electric buses, which are expected to deploy in the next month.

NEED TO KNOW

OPINION

University Ridge development to generate $1.1 billion economic impact for county by BUTCH KIRVEN Mr. Kirven has been active in the community through the years having served as a member of Greenville County Council, District 27, since 2005.

The proposed University Ridge Development is an unheard-of opportunity for Greenville County to partner with private enterprise in converting an unproductive land asset into an extraordinarily productive and durable future revenue stream that would not otherwise occur. With this project, future County Councils will have many options – funds to pay for more deputies and to expand EMS services, a first-class public transit system, affordable housing, and more, with no pressure to raise taxes. Over the next eight-10 years, the taxable value of the University Ridge private development is estimated to be $1.1 billion. The project will create 7,700 construction jobs, 5,500 permanent jobs, and about $560 million in annual business revenue. In addition, the county will receive $23.5 million per year in additional tax revenue on the privately owned developed property, also benefiting public schools. Total county revenue over the next 20 years will total $537 million. Out of that, costs to the county will be $32.5 million for public infrastructure, $40 million for off-site state offices and family court, and $67 million for the new county office building on University Ridge. The net annual revenue for the county from the developed University Ridge property would be about $19 million per year – about 20% of total current county property tax revenue. Greenville’s downtown renaissance over the past 30 years has been phenomenal. The opening of Liberty Park in 2005 following demolition of several buildings and the old Camperdown Bridge sparked developments on both sides of the Reedy River and along Pendleton and Augusta streets – new hotels, office buildings, retail, restaurants, condominiums, apartments, the Peace Center expansion, the old Greenville News site, Fluor Field, and many others. Sitting in the middle of all this is 37 acres of land

on University Ridge with an old shopping mall converted to the county office building in 1984. Over the years, the county received numerous inquiries from parties interested in purchasing some or all of the county’s acreage. County Council members were not interested in leaving this central location, but they were aware that the former shopping center building that houses local and state government offices was old and functionally obsolete. It is not the best

from developers interested in presenting plans to the county that would align with Council’s objectives of maximizing proceeds from land sales, preserving county-owned land for a new county office building, structuring land sale revenue to pay for the new county office building, providing off-site space for the relocation of state offices and family court, and providing for public infrastructure necessary for new mixed-use urban developments on the University Ridge (County Square) site.

use for 37 acres in a location that has become the most desirable location for urban development in the region. Council members soon began to realize that a new multistory county office building could be built on 5-7 acres of land and paid for from the proceeds of subdividing and selling the balance of the 37 remaining acres for urban development. In addition to the land sale proceeds, the new private development on the site will generate millions in new annual tax revenue as opposed to zero revenue as government-owned land. County Council made the bold decision to initiate the largest economic development project in Greenville’s history. County Council authorized the county administrator to advertise for proposals

Six companies/groups submitted proposals. County Council selected three to meet with and review their proposals in detail. County Council then selected one of the three finalists and directed the administrator to negotiate a development agreement. With the assistance of experts and a series of update meetings involving County Council, a development agreement/contract between the county and a development company (RocaPoint LLC) was presented to County Council in April 2018. County Council unanimously approved the agreement/contract by Ordinance No. 4987 on May 15, 2018. Soon thereafter, the county and the development company began to implement the agreement. The developer proceeded

with environmental and engineering tests, engineers and architects began working on infrastructure and site layout plans and building designs, and marketing plans were formulated. For the county’s part, a firm was hired to analyze the space requirements for the new county office building and for the state offices and family court – how many square feet of space would be needed for each office, how many personnel would be housed where, and how it would all fit together for maximum efficiency and convenience to the public. The county is responsible for providing building space for various state offices. Those offices include: • Family court (increase courtrooms to eight, from six). • The USC Law Center, Department of Social Services. • Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Health and Environmental Control; and Department of Probation, Parole, and Pardon Services. Together these offices require up to 260,000 square feet of building area and at least 1,500 parking spaces. For the convenience to citizens using these services, an attempt was made to locate them together rather than scattered across the county. Several facilities were evaluated to meet the necessary criteria, including Greenville Technical College’s McAlister Square building, the Greenville Convention Center, and a former Fluor Corp. office building on Halton Road. The McAlister Square building is a converted “big box” store. It would not be available until Greenville Tech could build a new building on its main campus. In addition, the cost to modify the building for the state offices and court needs would be higher than available alternatives. The Greenville Convention Center is converted from a former textile trade show facility. It would provide less than half the office space needed, and parking at this fa-

cility is insufficient and involves some long walks to the building. Parking is even more problematic during events at the exhibition hall. The costs to modify this facility would be over $53 million and it would not serve the need. The Fluor building is the only structure designed and built as an office building, which makes adapting it for the state offices much easier. It is about the size needed, 240,000 square feet, includes 17 acres of land with ample surface parking, was just updated, and is available now. With this location

and functional design, future appreciation is very likely. The University Ridge development has several elements all connected and designed to work together as a whole. It is easy to criticize just one element or another, but that is an unrealistic way to appreciate how the whole plan is structured to achieve the objectives that were established by County Council in the beginning. If allowed to proceed, University Ridge will deliver all that is intended. But, perhaps, this plan is too bold for Greenville County.

THINGS TO SEE & DO

Born and raised in Australia, artist Trina Piercy adds hints of the rainforest she called home for 18 years to ceramic bowls, mugs, and jewelry. “I try to pull a lot of inspiration from Australia, my home,” Percy says. She moved to the States to attend Bob Jones University, where she met her husband, and the two continue to reside in Greenville. Experimenting with various art styles for a while, Piercy found her consistent style

inspired by the place she still considers home. “So, I went back to my home roots,” she says. “Definitely a tropical, beachy vibe is what I go for.” From porcelain leaf-carved necklaces to floral stud earrings, Piercy loves to color her work with hues of purple, blue, pink, and green. “Blue and white — I just love that combo,” she says. Piercy enjoys getting her hands dirty when it comes to pottery. “I just love how

hands-on and involved pottery is — you’re 100% in,” she says. “I’m a mess every day.” Having specks of clay on her clothes and in her hair is not uncommon in Piercy’s line of work. “It’s weird, but it’s kind of peaceful just sitting there and actually creating something,” she says. Ceramics stole Piercy’s heart from day one of her senior-year ceramics class. “I just fell in love straightaway,” she says. “I knew I wanted to do that.” In addition to finding ceramics fun and relaxing, Piercy also enjoys the functionality of her artwork. “It just has many avenues to express yourself,” she says. Whether it be a vibrant green rainforest mug or an Eiffel Tower mug, she finds ways to make her work personal — either per-

sonal to her or personal to the buyer. “One reason I like drawing on my mugs is you can only hang so much art in your house,” Piercy says. “But being able to actually draw on functional items like bowls, jewelry, and mugs and incorporate that into pottery, I think is really awesome.” Also, her love for traveling, drawing, and drinking coffee all factor into Piercy’s mug designs. When she’s not throwing clay or unloading the kiln, Piercy is sketching on things or going on coffee dates with her husband. Piercy’s work can be seen on Instagram @merakipottery and purchased online at trinapiercy.etsy.com. “It’s still a really new business, but I’m excited to see where it goes,” she says.

‘NOISES OFF’

n story by MELODY CUENCA | photos by WILL CROOKS

Comedy brings flying sardines, falling trousers to stage Three acts in Centre Stage’s “Noises Off” — a dress rehearsal, an opening performance, and a later performance — sneak audiences backstage for a firsthand glimpse at theater life.

The comedy features a show within a show while poking fun at the follies of actors. “Playwright Michael Frayn did a fantastic job of capturing the mayhem of putting up a farce for an audience,” local actor Caroline Davis says.

Following a theater company’s tour of “Nothing On,” the comedy highlights actors falling behind schedule, flubbing lines, and missing cues. Oh, and of course all the slapstick comedy, falling trousers, and flying sardines one would expect to see permeate the play. “This whole show is basically a celebration of all the ridiculous things theater-makers do to keep a production on its feet in the face of disaster,” Davis says. “As the old adage says, ‘The show must go on!’” Davis, who portrays the somewhat lost actor Brooke in “Noises Off,” says Brooke’s fellow cast members help her stay up to speed in the show’s play “Nothing On.” “I love that Frayn wrote this play in such a way that we get to truly live the experiences of our characters through the whole process,” she says. “It’s chaos, but it’s fun chaos.” Preparing for this production has presented unique challenges for the cast. Davis says she did her script analysis twice — first for “Noises Off” and then again for “Nothing On.” “We have often found ourselves living whole scenes from the play in real time dur-

ing rehearsal,” she says. “We’re all backstage searching for sardines, trying to figure out who is missing, and dealing with wardrobe malfunctions just like our characters do.” Comedies require lots of focus for precision and timing, Davis says, but “Noises Off” has some “extra fun hurdles” that leave the cast in a daze and drenched in sweat. Audiences should expect to leave Centre Stage wiping tears of laughter from their eyes. “You know that feeling you get when you laugh so hard that your ab muscles kind of hurt after? That’s what I want them to feel,” Davis says.

THINGS TO SEE & DO

U P STAT E WITH VINCENT HARRIS The first thing you’re going to notice on “Bad Form,” the new album by a group of S.C. and N.C. musicians called Beket, is the guitars. Rather than just trafficking in pure noise, Beket guitarists Ethan Taylor and Preston Keepfer have sculpted their layers of six-strings into cresting waves of sound that rise and fall around the album’s nine songs, either buoying Taylor’s vocals or suddenly falling away, leaving him in stark silence. The sound these guys have created on those dueling six-strings is so epic that it’s stunning to find out they did most of this in Keepfer’s home studio. The second thing you’re going to notice is how truly desperate Taylor’s vocals are. He seems to be shredding his voice on every song, but it’s not a metalstyle howl; it’s a nakedly vulnerable cry of pain. If music is meant to be a way to exorcise one’s demons, it’s hard not to think that Taylor is doing that here. His lyrics tend to bear out that idea; the very first line on the album, on a track called “The Thieves,” is “I’ve been having such terrible thoughts,” and from

that point he seems to unravel in real time, spilling out self-doubt, inwardlooking anger, and fear so fervently that it’s a visceral experience for the listener. It’s difficult to imagine a largely homerecorded album sounding more wellcrafted than this, and that’s probably because it’s taken Beket two years to make it. “It took a really long time,” Taylor says with a laugh. “Not just figuring out not just the basic stuff like lyrics and melody but also figuring out how things should flow together and what the vibe of each song would be. I wanted to try to make sure each song has something that surprises you.” As I mentioned before, Taylor and Keepfer took special care with the sound of the guitars. “Preston’s just a guitar wiz,” Taylor says of his friend and lead guitarist. “He cares about guitar tones, and we were able to spend days and days on how each guitar would sound. I actually bought a baritone guitar [a larger, heavier version of a guitar that can be tuned to a lower

pitch] just for the record, to be able to make a really great sound.” Once the guitars and bass parts (played by Jesse Horne) were laid down, the band decided to record Drake Kent’s explosive drum parts at Greenbriar Studio in Spartanburg with producer/engineer Jay Arrington. The final piece of the puzzle came when Beket brought in producer Travis Hill (of the Atlanta band Microwave) for mixing. “Working with Travis was an integral part of making this record,” Taylor says. “He’s a producer I respect, and I loved his mixes, so I reached out to him and went down to Atlanta and showed him the songs. He understood what we were going for.” It wasn’t an easy process, but Taylor says that the wait was worth it, even if it didn’t seem that way at times. “Preston and Drake were really helpful in convincing me that we were going to sit on it until it was right,” he says. “I’m incredibly happy that we took that long, because I’m proud of it, and that’s not something I normally feel.”

more about a natural progression. “It’s funny,” Goldsmith says. “When I listen back, I can hear what people are talking about, but there was never any intention behind it. The motivating attitude was, ‘What’s something we’ve never done before? What’s a sound or a combination of sounds that we could do for these songs that’ll kind of freak us out?’” And naturally, what “freaked out” Dawes a decade ago doesn’t freak them out now. “Back in 2009, when we were all 23, it didn’t take much,” Goldsmith says with a laugh. “And as time goes on, we’re still looking for that feeling. I don’t think it’s dissimilar to a kid going on a roller coaster at an amusement park. It’s kind of scary and you don’t know if you’re going to be able to handle it, but you’re going to do it anyway and it ends up being your favorite thing. When we push ourselves and do something out of our comfort zones, we can be the best versions of ourselves. We want to surprise ourselves; we want to grow.” After all, Goldsmith adds, “You don’t wake up in your 20s and say, ‘I like who I am. I hope I never change.’ That would be unfortunate. A band is a living creature; if we were to say, ‘These first four records have a certain thing, let’s always do that,’ then I think it would be a surefire way to just die.”

That being said, Goldsmith says the concept of changing things up JUST for the sake of change is repellent to the band. “You can tell when an artist is being honest with themselves and authentic with their path,” he says, “rather than doing something for how it’s going to be received. I never want to start thinking that way. I don’t want to do something weird for the sake of itself, I want what the music calls for, what feels fresh in that moment.” And it’s easier to take a band’s evolution in stride when their quality control is so high in terms of songwriting. “One thing that I’ve always been really stoked about is that we can take anything from our first record and put it next to anything from our last record,” Goldsmith says. “That’s fun for us. There are a lot of bands that don’t like their early sh– anymore, so they don’t play it. And there are a lot of bands whose fans don’t like any of their NEW sh–, so they don’t play it. And our fans have been so warm to the entire catalog.”

PRESENTED BY THE CAPITAL CORPORATION story by ARIEL TURNER | photos PROVIDED

A new event series from TOWN Magazine called TOWN Uncorked promises exclusive wine pairings with dishes you won’t find on a local restaurant menu. The first event, June 4 at new venue Westfield, showcases five chefs from Rick Erwin Dining Group who will present their dishes on their own merit as chefs and not necessarily highlight their restaurants’ offerings. Their own tastes and specific skills, along with their combined decades of culinary experience in kitchens around the globe, will be on display for guests to get to know them in a more intimate and personal setting. Paired with those bites will be five boutique wines from Mission Grape, the Upstate’s only locally based wine distribution company, founded by Matt Tebbetts. Each wine will be available for purchase by the bottle or case that evening. “TOWN aims for elevated yet accessible experiences, and this event falls directly in line with that,” says TOWN executive editor Blair Knobel. “Our goal is to bring together best chefs with exceptional wines in beautiful spaces. Early June will be the perfect time to sample and savor the moment with friends at Westfield — a gorgeous, modern update of a former warehouse near the Swamp Rabbit Trail.”>>

with music coming from a street musician playing classical Spanish guitar. “The idea is to travel around and pause to taste and sample from each ‘cafe,’ which are the chef stations,” Linen says. The setup will include plenty of seating for guests to sit and enjoy each pairing as they are intended rather than breezing through the food and wine stations separately, she says.

BOWL & BREW

AN EVENING WITH DAWES

TOWN Magazine’s new wine series pairing Greenville’s best chefs with expertly curated wines at dynamic venues, debuting at Greenville’s new chic event space Westfield. Five chefs from the sterling Rick Erwin Dining Group will each prepare a dish paired with a wine from Mission Grape Distributor’s select producers.

The 44th Annual Assaults, presented by Greenville Health System, is one of the most intense, premier cycling experiences. The Assault on Mt. Mitchell is a 102.7-mile self-paced ride from Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium in downtown Spartanburg, S.C., along the Blue Ridge Parkway, to the summit at Mt. Mitchell State Park in North Carolina.

Bowl and Brew will benefit the Center for Developmental Services. Guests can enjoy two hours of bowling, pizza, drinks, and great company while helping to support more than 8,000 children with developmental delays and disabilities in the Upstate. Sponsorships are available.

Over the years that followed their debut, Dawes evolved and electrified. Once known for their honest approach to classic sounds, Dawes grew into something different: a forward-thinking, boundary-pushing band for the 21st century, willing to follow inspiration wherever it leads.
