Things to Do
Residents of Woodruff enjoy an assortment of things to do, from year-round community events to daily fun outdoors playing disc golf or enjoying trails. The Woodruff Greenway is a few years old and spans just under a mile. This paved trail allows residents to walk, run, bike ride, or simply enjoy nature. In the future, the city hopes to connect the trail to the newly redone McKinney Park. The park was renovated to include an amphitheater, ballfields, concessions, a new playground, picnic shelters, outdoor exercise equipment, and a splash pad. This is also the spot to be in the summer for community events like the summer concert series.

Nearby, the Old Rock Quarry Winery offers residents a chance to spend the day tasting some of the best wine across Upstate South Carolina. Spend the day doing a tasting or attend one of their many special events.
