We need your help controlling invasive species at Anderson’s beloved Rocky River Nature Park!
About the park: This free and publicly accessible park is a 131.9-acre property that was protected in 2016 in partnership with Anderson University. Throughout the park, visitors enjoy a matrix of bottomland forest and beaver-maintained wetlands which hosts over 168 species of passerine and migratory birds throughout the year. A population of the rare Swamp Rabbit (Sylvilagus palustris) is also known to inhabit the floodplain forests of the park.
Workday activities: This year marks the second year of active habitat restoration at the park. The primary activity of this workday will involve removing invasive species such as invasive olive and Chinese Privet to enhance foraging and nesting areas for native wildlife and migratory species.
What to wear and bring: Participants should wear long pants, close-toed shoes and gear that you don’t mind getting dirty in. We will provide tools and gloves, but volunteers are more than welcome to bring their favorite gardening gloves, loppers or saws!
Many hands make light work — we hope to see you there!
The 2025 Spring Tool Sale and Auction by Greenville Woodworkers Guild will be held on Saturday, April 19, from 8 am to 11 am at 209 Hollyridge Ct, Greenville, SC 29607.
Throughout the year the guild’s tool team gathers tools and equipment from owners to be sold in two sales events (depending on the quantity of tools collected). These events are conducted at the Guild Education Center. They include fixed priced items for instant purchase and silent auction bid items.
Generally, the consignee / donor contacts the Guild and the tool team takes care of everything else. The tool team retrieves all the owner’s items at the owner’s location, transports the items to the Guild, cleans the items, prices the inventory, conducts a sale and distributes the proceeds back to the consignees. Items remaining after the tool sale are donated to a variety of charities throughout Greenville County.
All items are barcoded and we use a Point-of-Sale system to collect payment during the sale. To make checkout as smooth and fast as possible, the Guild prefers Credit or Debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay.
Cash will be accepted but please, no checks.
For more information, please contact the tool sale / auction team at [email protected].

It’s that time of the year again and excitement is in the air! Please join us for the Akanimo Cancer Foundation Annual 5K RUN/WALK event created to commemorate Akanimo’s birthday while raising funds to support childhood cancer research.
Akanimo Ekanem, born on June 13, 2007 & was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer called Desmoplastic Small Round Cell tumor (DSRCT) at 10 years old and battled bravely for 2 years and 2 months until Christmas Day, 2019. This is why we are passionate about childhood cancer research. This year, on what would have been Nimo’s 18th birthday, we call on you to be part of something extraordinary as we gather all over the world in our various communities to participate in this family and community event. We invite you to create a team in your location. You can also give to an individual team or the general team. It’s an event like no other, and we love that you are a part of something this phenomenal!
Every registration to this event will bring us closer to achieving our mission – raising money to support childhood cancer research. Together, we can work towards a world where no child dies of cancer.
