Ridgewood Swim and Tennis Club Swim Team Sign-Ups Tomorrow!
Posted by greensboro under Fave Neighborhood, For Buyers, For Sellers, Greensboro, Regional News, Ridgewood, Greensboro, NC, Things To Do
We were thrilled to see the signs go up for the Ridgewood Swim and Tennis Club Swim Team Registration. They will be held tomorrow, Saturday, April 9th from 10-2 at the Ridgewood Club.
Ridgewood Swim and Tennis experienced a decrease in appearance and services over the winter months. But with new owners at the end of March, there have been many improvements. We have seen some improvements in the landscaping and some activity on the tennis courts, as well. There are rumors that cable will be restored to all of the televisions soon.
Ridgewood Swim and Tennis sits in the heart of the neighborhood of Ridgewood, located just north of Greensboro city limits in Guilford County, NC.

Guilford Courthouse Battleground Park Opens Library
Posted by greensboro under For Buyers, For Sellers, Greensboro, Regional News, Things To Do
Yesterday was the grand opening of yet another feature of the Guilford Courthouse Military Park, known locally as Battleground Park. The Nathanael Greene Revolutionary War Library is now open for business!
The Nathanael Greene Revolutionary War Library is located on New Garden Road directly across from the Guilford Courthouse National Military Park Visitors Center. According to the News and Record, it is only one of two libraries in the Southeast which specialize in information about the southern campaign of the Revolutionary War. It is open to the public and is hoped to be an excellent resource for local students, scholars and researchers.
If you’ve never visited the Guilford Courthouse Military Park, now is a great time to plan a visit to this Greensboro treasure. The visitor center is free and has two great movies that explain the historical significance of the Revolutionary War battles that took place here. There is also a small museum and a paved walking path so you can actually stand where the battles took place. The approximately two-mile loop leads you through mostly wooded areas and features some challenging hills so it is very popular with walkers, runners and bicyclists.

ACC Hall of Champions Opens in Greensboro
Posted by greensboro under For Buyers, For Sellers, Greensboro, Regional News, Things To Do
The ACC Hall of Champions is the newest attraction in Greensboro. Opened to the public on March 3, 2011, this facility is dedicated the the rich history of Atlantic Coast Conference athletics.
The Hall features multi-media exhibits, life-sized mascots and interactive broadcasts to provide a comprehensive view of the first 58 years of ACC history.
Greensboro was chosen as the home of the ACC Hall of Champions because we have traditionally been the host of the annual ACC basketball tournaments. The ACC tournaments are somewhat of an obsession here in Greensboro and throughout the south. The ACC reaches as far north as the Boston University and the University of Maryland all the way down to Florida State and the University of Miami. On days when Duke plays the University of Carolina at Chapel Hill (known locally just as “Carolina”), Greensboro is awash in dark and light blue as fans don their favorite team’s colors. Good-natured smack talk is heard throughout the city, including in offices, stores and schools.
The ACC Hall of Champions is housed in a brand-new building on the grounds of the Greensboro Coliseum. The regular hours are Wednesday-Saturday 10:00-4:00, Sunday 1:00-4:00 and closed on Monday and Tuesday. During the ACC tournament, hours are extended so check the ACC Hall of Champions website for more details. Tickets are just $5. The ACC Hall of Champions is located at 1921 West Lee Street, Greensboro, NC.
