Unplugged: Safe(r) ways to kick off new month, year in Savannah culture scene
Bill Dawers
The first weekend of 2021 presents some wonderful opportunities to celebrate outside.
The Tybee Post Theater’s record-setting Tybee Polar Plunge will be semi-virtual this year without an official event at the Tybee Pier and Pavilion, but I suspect that south beach will still be bustling at noon on New Year’s Day.
Wormsloe State Historic Site is offering 2.5 mile hikes guided by rangers on Jan. 1. Pets on short leashes are welcome, but folks need to call the office at 912-353-3023 for reservations.
Sulfur Art Services and Green Truck Pub are currently presenting Single-Use Sketch Studies: the U.S. Two-Party System by Corey J. Willis at the Drive Thru Art Box at the restaurant at 2430 Habersham St.
Enmarket Encourage Health lecture series explores healthy walking routes
Christopher Berinato
For the past seven years, the Enmarket Encourage Health Education Series has been presenting lunch time lectures devoted to educating people on healthy eating habits and exercise.
This year the series has been forced to switch to a live stream format, but continues to present excellent speakers who are knowledgeable on a variety of health related subjects.
On Jan. 7, the next entry in the series will feature Armand Turner, Healthy Savannah / YMCA of Coastal Georgia Physical Activity Program Manager. Turner has been working with Healthy Savannah for the last three years through the Racial & Ethnic Approaches to Community Health grant, or REACH.
