South Tar River Greenway Ribbon Cutting

The City of Greenville along with Friends of Greenville Greenways (FROGGS) will be holding a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Friday, December 4, 2009 at 12 noon for the South Tar River Greenway.

Eventually the South Tar River Greenway will extend from Town Commons to approximately 5th and 10th Street, near Greensprings Park, connecting to the current Greenmill Run Greenway.

The ribbon cutting location is at North Ash Street, across from the off-leash dog park. You are all welcome to attend.

And hey, what's a celebration without some free food, huh?

So ride your bikes there, and after the ribbon is cut, be among the first to cross. And if you do not have time to ride, jump in your car and come anyways!
