Upstate International is excited to once again offer our Language Classes this fall! Stimulate your brain by learning a new language or polish your current foreign language skills with UI’s affordable classes. We offer a diverse range of language choices to learn, including English, Spanish, French, German, and Italian, with more to be added in the weeks to come!

The 14-week fall semester will run from August 28th, 2023 to December 8th, 2023. Classes are either held at Upstate International or meet online via Zoom. Our language classes fall under two categories: regular or intensive. Regular classes meet 1x a week for 75 minutes and have a flat registration fee of $150. Intensive classes meet 2x a week for 90 minutes per class and have a flat registration fee of $450.

Please note: In order to participate in our classes, you must be a member of UI. Individual memberships are $75, and family memberships are $100. The fee covers a year of membership. Registration is completed online and payments can be made by credit/debit card, cash or check. You can register for membership and for classes at our website: https://upstateinternational.org/

Should you have any further questions, please email UI’s Programs and Events Coordinator, at [email protected]

We hope to see you in class!

Come experience the national parks! On five days in 2023, all National Park Service sites that charge an entrance fee will offer free admission to everyone. Mark your calendar for these entrance fee–free dates in 2023. Please check operating status at this park and others before traveling as holidays and local weather or safety conditions can affect hours of operation.

The annual Triple Tree Fly-In has turned into a “can’t miss” event on everyone’s Fly-In Calendar. Aviators from across the globe anxiously await for the Fall to make the annual pilgrimage to our manicured 7,000-foot grass runway to experience one of the fastest-growing general aviation events in the country.

During our 2022 Fly-In, we had over 800 airplanes visit throughout the week from 43 states nationwide. During that week, the Triple Tree Aerodrome had over 1,700 aircraft movements and a record 804 movements on Saturday. These statistics made the Triple Tree Aerodrome one of the busiest airports in South Carolina (for that week).

NONE of this could happen without your support! Despite all the growth, we still hold true to our core values of Fun, Fellowship, and Hospitality. Please mark your calendars for September 18-24, 2023 for our 16th annual Triple Tree Fly-In. See you soon!
