Excuse me. In the feels this morning as my oldest starts kindergarten today. Hard to believe TBH.
Anyway…let’s cut to this week in Greensboro with a preview round up:
Goat yoga is back! That’s always been a crowd favorite.
Grasshoppers play last home games of the season Tuesday-Sunday.
Last chance at Night Paddles, but you need your own kayak.
Tons of live music options.
Craft classes like mending, scrapbooking, painting, and jewelry making.
