We still don’t know if our schools will be playing high school sports this fall. The South Carolina State High School League will hold a public meeting via Zoom tomorrow, July 15th at 8am eastern. It will be broadcast live from the SCHSL Facebook Page.
The first major Class A business park development in 20 years was announced last month. The massive 172 acre development was announced by the Greenville Area Development Corporation. The development will be named Fox Hill Business Park. GADC chose New Jersey Developer, Sudler Companies to develop the property.
It’s a very impressive and ambitious plan with nearly 2.5 million square feet of development designed to meet the needs for manufacturing, distribution or warehouse. It demonstrates that there is strong belief that the growth we have seen in the Upstate of South Carolina will continue. Greenville Business Magazine’s story on the Fox Hill Business Park has a lot of excellent additional details about the development project.
Fountain Inn is within easy access to the Inland Port and GSP Airport as well as interstate 385 and 85. There is also lots of expected housing growth in the Fountain Inn area. Greenville County Schools is also building a brand new Fountain Inn High School. It’s set to open for the fall 2021 – if we ever go back to school again 🙂
NAI Earle Furman will be working with Sudler Companies to market the property.
South Carolina State Parks just issued a mask mandate requiring visitors over the age of two to wear masks while visiting the parks.
According to the South Carolina State Parks Facebook Page:
“Effective immediately, visitors over the age of two years old are required to wear a mask in any state park facility staffed by employees or where the general public may congregate. This includes park offices, visitor centers, stores, nature centers, restrooms or while touring any indoor facility being considered for rent. In the event that visitors do not have a mask, they will be asked to remain outside of the facility and park employees will assist them and accommodate their needs, if possible.
Any park rental facility to include cabins, campsites, picnic shelters, group facilities, etc, are considered as having restricted use and will be the responsibility of the party renting that facility. It is recommended that they follow all CDC and SCDHEC guidelines regarding social distancing and mask wearing, but park staff will not be responsible for reinforcing those guidelines.
We thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we work to stop the spread and protect our visitors and employees.”
