Go is also called “Baduk” or “Weiqi.” It’s a game with over 2,000 years of history. It’s a game that rewards creativity, intuition, and deep thinking. It is easy to learn (https://www.learn-go.net/), but difficult to master, offering a lifetime of intellectual stimulation and personal growth. Playing Go can help improve your focus, memory, and problem-solving skills, as well as your ability to anticipate and plan ahead.
Go is popular among anyone who likes strategy, mathematical concepts, game theory, or competition. Beginners are welcome! We meet up in two locations:
Greenville Go Club: Saturdays from 2 to 5 pm @ Hughes Main Library
Anderson Go Club: Mondays from 6 to 9 pm @ Empire Games

There are a LOT of fun and philanthropic events in Greenville, but “if you get confused, just listen to the music play.” like The Grateful Dead said.
Attendees can look forward to an evening of soulful music, vibrant energy, and an opportunity to support a worthwhile cause. In addition to the concert, there will be various opportunities for patrons to contribute to Loaves & Fishes, including a raffle and t-shirt sales.
“We’re thrilled to bring this show together with The Radio Room and Loaves & Fishes! We have a wonderful community around this band, and this is a great opportunity to bring us all together to give back to the local community and fight food insecurity in Greenville while enjoying a killer night of live music. Truly a win-win!” says Zach Thigpen, singer and guitarist of The Grateful Brothers.
“We’re excited to team up for another great event of Rock Out Hunger with Loaves & Fishes, because food rescue is something that we’re all passionate about. We’re currently in our 13th year as a business, and this will be our 2nd event with Loaves & Fishes, and we hope for many more to come”, says Wes Gilliam, a co-owner of the Radio Room in Greenville, SC, as well as a founder of the Upstate Music Awards. He is a proud husband and father and a longtime supporter of Loaves & Fishes.

Proceeds from Rock Out Hunger will be put to immediate use this year rescuing food in Greenville
