Pictures from 2014 Picnic/Parade

Posted By on July 7, 2014

Another great Independence Day parade, picnic and Bluegrass at the school house. Thanks to one and all for  your support of the Graniteville Volunteer Fire Departement – the raffle was a success and all the t-shirts sold out.  Fun was had by all and we also especially thank the Shepherd Canyon Band for playing once again.  The school house was rocking late into the night.   Please send any pics you might have to janis1987@msn.com.  Thanks everyone – see you next year!!

Last bit of Winter?

Posted By on April 25, 2014

Graniteville had a very mild Winter. This latest Spring storm brought a dusting as shown in this photo taken this morning. Should be warm and sunny by this weekend!  There is a troublesome bear in town, helping himself (herself?) to food so be on the lookout!
