The 17th Annual Corey James Memorial Good Time Benefit is scheduled to return to Greer this Saturday, September 26. This annual event, a significant gathering for the community, will feature a performance by the band Milli Fungus, alongside seven other musical acts.

The benefit serves as a way for Greerites and residents of the broader Upstate South Carolina region to come together for a cause, honoring the memory of Corey James. Such community-focused events often highlight the close-knit nature of areas like Greer, which has a rich history dating back to its origins as a railroad depot in the 1870s, named after local landowner James Manning Greer.

While the specific venue for this year’s benefit was not detailed, events of this nature frequently utilize local gathering spaces within Greer, contributing to the vibrant atmosphere of neighborhoods such as Victor Mill Village or the downtown area. These events not only provide entertainment but also foster a sense of civic engagement and support for various causes within the community.

The inclusion of multiple performers, including Milli Fungus, suggests a diverse musical lineup designed to appeal to a wide audience. This type of local entertainment is a common feature in Greer, a city known for its community events and its role as a gateway to the Upstate region.
