As of 11:59 PM tonight, it’s officially springtime in Augusta and Aiken. Winter is over but don’t let the fact that it’s officially spring fool ya. It can still get cold and we can have a freeze in March and sometime early April.
Meteorologists start spring on March 1st, but that kind of back fired this year as a big snowstorm hit the mid-west, and to them, it wasn’t spring. We’ve had some pretty warm days lately and we’ve seen the pollen falling like snow here. We have a few days forecasted coming up where it will get down into the 30s and one day only into the 50s for highs.

So grab the family, gather up some of the best friends you can find and let’s go explore what we have to offer right here at home.
The Augusta Craft Beer Fest
This is one of the events that we love to call the official kick-off of Spring. This year’s date is April 27th from 1p to 5p at SRP Park in North Augusta. Around 30 local and regional breweries are on site for you to sample of the best beers around. I’ve found several great new beers over the past few years at the Augusta Beer Fest. This past year was Twisted Tea!
