Well that was another Shucking Good Time! 🦪🌽🥂💃

We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful evening, or better company! The food was delicious, as always, thanks to our friends at Cribbs Catering! And the best part, we raised over $85,000 for local conservation!

This year’s oyster roast was one for the books! Big THANKS to everybody who donated, sponsored, volunteered, bought cool stuff from our silent auction, and made the evening extra special. We can’t do what we do without you and we can’t wait to do it again next year!

The Cottonwood Trail might take a few days to dry out after this weekend’s storm, but besides some mud, a few down trees, and a peculiarly placed tree stump right in the middle of the boardwalk, it rode out the storm pretty well! Lynn, our Lands Manager, was even able to save a few little fish that were stranded in puddles!

The Cottonwood Trail is going to be muddy for a few days! Please be patient as we get the trails cleaned up.

Join SPACE for a special volunteer day honoring the life and legacy of Dr. Robert "Botany Bob" Powell, one of Spartanburg's most beloved conservation champions. Dr. Powell was an original SPACE Board member and helped establish and name the Cottonwood Trail. His passion for nature and environmental stewardship inspired generations of students throughout his 36-year long career as a Biology professor at Converse College.

Volunteers may choose between litter cleanup or invasive species removal. We will provide tools and supplies, but recommend bringing drinking water and wearing sturdy shoes. Let's roll up our sleeves and celebrate a man who dedicated his life to protecting the environment!

When: Fri., Oct. 9, 2026 from 10:00 a.m. - noon
Where: Upper Chinquapin Greenway, meet at the trailhead on Graham Rd.
