Welcome to year two of Gate City Guide!
THANK YOU FOR SCROLLING HERE
One year ago, we hit send for the first time and GCG went to 28 inboxes. Today, nearly 12,000 of you start your Monday with this scroll to find things to do in Greensboro.
That only happens because you open it, share it, and tell friends “Hey, you’d like this.” Crazy how community and consistency adds up over time.
Our goal is simple: make this more useful, more fun, and more local for you every week.
1% better every day (or week in the case of this newsletter).
You can help shape what’s next in year two. Opt in below.
