Greenville, SC
Mark your calendars for Friday, November 13, 2026, and join us for a night that will leave you feeling fearless, singing at the top of your lungs, and making a difference for animals in need. Whether you're ready to shake it off, scream every bridge with your besties, or simply celebrate the magic of the Eras, this is your wildest dream concert—with every ticket helping homeless pets find their own happily ever after. Elizabeth as Taylor is the era-spanning Taylor Swift tribute that ignites sing-alongs and leaves audiences asking how soon they can come back. Elizabeth first heard Taylor Swift’s debut single, Tim McGraw, on the radio at age 12 and was instantly captivated. From that moment, she became a devoted fan, following Taylor’s journey through every album and era. What began as admiration soon grew into a passion—and ultimately a career—dedicated to celebrating Taylor Swift’s music.​ For nearly 17 years, Elizabeth has shared her love of Taylor Swift’s music with audiences around the world. Backed by a live band, Elizabeth as Taylor travels internationally and performs in theaters, music halls, festivals, and venues of all sizes. She has evolved alongside each era of Taylor’s career, delivering authentic, engaging tribute performances that honor one of the world’s most influential artists. A quick note before you arrive: Love Story is an outdoor concert taking place on our newly expanded campus. Please bring a folding chair or lawn chair for each guest in your party, as seating will not be provided. Parking instructions and other important event information will be shared with you via email as we get closer to the concert date. Arrive early and soak it all in! Pre-show music and activities start at 4:30 PM, with Elizabeth as Taylor taking the stage promptly at 6:00 PM. *Elizabeth as Taylor is an unofficial tribute show and is fan sponsored and is not endorsed by or in any way affiliated with TAS Rights Management, Taylor Swift, or their affiliated entities, and the event organizers have indemnified TAS Rights Management, Taylor Swift, or their affiliated entities against any and all claims relating to any injury, death, or other harm that could befall event attendees. *

Miles for Marv: A Memorial 5k & 1-Mile Fun Run in Memory of Marvin Jarman

Greenville, NC
Miles for Marv Memorial Race Honoring the Legacy of Marvin Jarman. Join us for the inaugural Miles for Marv Memorial Race, a community 5K and 1-mile walk created to honor the life and legacy of Marvin Jarman, affectionately known throughout Greenville as “The Greenville Legend.” To know Marvin was to know kindness. Born in Sterling, Colorado, Marvin spent most of his life in Greenville, North Carolina, where he became one of the community’s most beloved and recognizable faces. Because his brother played sports, Marvin became connected to the J.H. Rose athletic community at an early age. What began as an interest in watching his brother grew into a lifelong dedication to J.H. Rose and the student-athletes who came through its halls. For decades, Marvin could be found on the sidelines, in the stands, and around the athletic community cheering on the Rampants. He attended more than 1,300 J.H. Rose athletic events, including every Rose football game since 1972 and every basketball game since 1966. Year after year, generation after generation, Marvin showed up. But Marvin was more than a fan. He became a part of the J.H. Rose family and a familiar face to students, athletes, coaches, parents, and community members. His presence at games was something people came to expect, and his encouragement made people feel supported. Marvin had a smile that could light up a room and a special gift for making people feel seen and valued. His kindness was not limited to the people he knew. He had a way of making everyone around him feel like they mattered. Marvin’s dedication to his community did not go unnoticed. He received the North Carolina High School Athletic Association Special Person Award for his impact on the lives of others. J.H. Rose High School honored him by naming a street Marvin Jarman Drive. His story was also captured in a book about his life, and a plaque honoring Marvin now hangs at the entrance of Stallings Stadium at Elm Street Park. As one article about Marvin put it, “He was Greenville. He was J.H. Rose.” That is the legacy we want to carry forward. Miles for Marv was created as a way for the community to come together and celebrate the life of someone who spent so many years showing up for others. Marvin spent his life encouraging young people, supporting local athletics, and giving his time and attention to the people around him. This race gives us an opportunity to do the same. Whether you knew Marvin personally, grew up seeing him at J.H. Rose games, heard his story, or are learning about him for the first time, you are invited to be part of this celebration. Participants can choose between the 5K or 1-mile walk, making the event accessible for runners, walkers, families, students, alumni, athletes, and community members of all ages. Most importantly, this race is about more than one day. Funds raised through Miles for Marv will help establish a scholarship connected to the annual Marvin Jarman Award, which is presented to a J.H. Rose High School student who demonstrates character, school spirit, and service to others. In this way, Marvin’s legacy of showing up, encouraging others, and serving his community can continue to impact future generations. So come run for Marvin. Come walk for Marvin. Come celebrate the memories. Come support the next generation. Honoring a legend. Inspiring future generations.

Mile Light Ice Run 5k

Greenville, ME
The Mile Light Ice Run starts in downtown Greenville, Maine, and heads out across frozen Moosehead Lake toward the iconic Mile Light before turning south and returning to town. Locals know that enjoying Moosehead Lake doesn’t end with summer. We’re adding this race to our event lineup to share the vast beauty of our home in every season. Think wide-open views, fresh winter air, and running without the sand, salt, and mud of roadside miles. In March, warmer days and cold nights can create a remarkable running surface. The sun softens the winter snowpack, while overnight temperatures freeze it back into a firm, packed surface. Course conditions will depend on the weather, and sections will be groomed as needed to improve the running experience. After crossing the finish line, join us for a warm chili lunch inside The Rockwell Insurance Agency office at 35 Pritham Avenue, Greenville, ME 04441, served immediately following the race.

Respond & Restore First Responder 5K

Greenville, SC
Run. Restore. Reconnect. The Respond & Restore First Responder Wellness 5K was created for the people who spend their lives showing up for everyone else. Law enforcement officers. Firefighters. EMS. Dispatchers. Corrections officers. And the families who stand beside them. This isn't just a race. It's a day dedicated to physical wellness, mental health, connection, and community. As first responders, we're trained to run toward the problem, push through the exhaustion, and keep going when things get hard. But taking care of ourselves matters, too. Our goal is to create a positive, welcoming environment where first responders and their families can come together, get active, connect with others who understand their experiences, and be reminded that they don't have to carry everything alone. Whether you're an experienced runner, a weekend walker, a first responder, a family member, or simply someone who wants to show your support, you have a place here. Your registration includes an official event T-shirt, finisher medal, race bib, and post-race refreshments. Come run for yourself. Run for your brothers and sisters. Run for the ones who didn't make it home. Run for a healthier first-responder community.
