Greensboro, this cold front shall pass. Cozy up for your Monday scroll.
Another holiday week in GSO: Santa appearances, Christmas trivia, swing/contra/country/latin dancing, UNCG vs A&T, speed dating, Gargoyles games and even a Cousin Eddie 5K because of course there is.
Reminder of ongoing staples too: Winter Wonderlights @ Science Center, Christmas Balls @ Sunset Hills, Gingerbread House Competition @ Grandover, and Piedmont Winterfest @ LeBauer Park.
The Classic Holiday Film Series kicks off at Carolina Theatre today with all shows at 7PM. Here’s a quick cheat sheet to find your favorite:
Meet Me in St. Louis - Today
Gremlins - Tuesday
National Lampoon’s - Wendesday
Home Alone - Thursday
Elf - Friday
Muppet Christmas - Saturday
On our side, we’re prepping for next year and we need your help. We’ll be running a special EOY survey open to all our readers to give feedback on the direction of GCG, but you must opt-in. The more the merrier! Coming soon.
Do you want to help shape the future of GCG?
Scroll time.
