The chile cook-off was a hit.

Please join us on Saturday, October 15 at 4 PM at the Graniteville Schoolhouse for a Potluck Dinner, Chili Cook-off, and Baked Pie Contest. Trophies will be awarded for the best chili and the best homemade baked pie, as determined by an impartial panel of distinguished judges. The event is being sponsored by the Graniteville Volunteer Fire Company and will celebrate the end (fingers crossed) of the 2022 fire season.

Please also tell us if you are a contestant for the chili cook-off, baked pie contest, or both. You do not have to be a contestant to attend the dinner.

It’s almost here! The independence Day parade and picnic. This year’s theme is Super Heroes. The parade starts at noon at the schoolhouse. Picnic to follow.
The picnic will have free hot dogs and drinks. There will also be a raffle to benefit the Graniteville Volunteer Fire Dept. and live Bluegrass music. Side dishes and desserts are welcome.
We recently lost a true hero of Graniteville, Rusty Schuetz passed away after a long illness. There’s no better way to celebrate Rusty’s life than to be in Graniteville for the 4th. Rusty was the original founder of the very first parade in 1995. Wear something red in his honor. Rusty was bigger than life, there was no one quite like him, and his heart and smile will live on in all of us.
