After a successful partnership between Lander University, The City of Greenwood and Uptown Greenwood for Lander's Freshman Move-in Day and "Launch Into Lander" festivities, the three are joining forces once again to provide a community concert on the Lander University campus.
"This is their home for the next four years and we want them to become engaged in our community and all Greenwood has to offer," Uptown's Lara Hudson told the Index-Journal during "Launch Into Lander."
The band Oferle will perform at the PEES Circle on Friday, August 23, at 7:00 p.m. The concert is free and open to the entire community.
Both the university and the city say this will be the first of many partnerships over the course of the 2019/20 academic year. "We are planning other events and activities throughout the year to encourage students to visit Uptown and for our residents to visit Lander," Hudson said.
