southerndreaming-front

Welcome to Greenville, South Carolina!

Get excited as you browse the Greenville, SC official website (http://www.greenvillesc.gov/) and Yeah, that Greenville (http://www.visitgreenvillesc.com) for what this dynamic, growing city is all about!

Our airport is GSP (Greenville Spartanburg International Airport) and has multiple car rental agencies on site.

Lodging is plentiful – some suggestions are hotels with shuttles (for pickups and drop-offs at the airport, as well as to shuttle you to points of interest, such as our fantastic downtown). The Hilton and the LaQuinta are two such hotels with shuttle service, both are approximately 6.2 miles/14 minutes from the conference site.

Lodging can also be obtained in the quaint city of Travelers Rest, a bit north of Greenville, and less than ten miles from the Greenville Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, (the site of the conference). Traveler’s Rest (TR) lodging includes a Hampton Inn, a Best Western, and check out the lovely Swamp Rabbit  Inn. TR is also near Furman University, considered to be one of the most beautiful campuses in the nation. It was designed by the architects who restored colonial Williamsburg.  Incidentally, TR is also where the behaviorist John B. Watson grew up.
