Last year’s SpartOberfest was cut short by Hurricane Florence, but this year, we have our fingers crossed for better weather. This South Carolina version of Germany’s famous Oktoberfest brings families together for wholesome fun, including live music, a 5K–10K Pretzel Run, a Christmas market, food, drink, and fellowship. A portion of the proceeds benefits St. Luke’s Free Medical Clinic, the Spartanburg Interfaith Hospitality Network (SPIHN), and Safe Homes Rape Crisis Coalition. SYP ‘n Shuck Oyster season returns in September, and with it comes the annual SYP ‘n Shuck oyster roast, hosted by the Spartanburg Young Professionals (SYP). Attendees will enjoy live music, beer and wine, socializing, and, of course, plenty of freshly shucked oysters. The ambitious young adults in SYP are the future of Spartanburg, so come out to support their volunteer work and education.
