Events and News

Upcoming Special Events:

A Taste of the Coast – March 24 - 11:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
Barefoot Landing

Barefoot Landing is again partnering with our neighbors at Risen Christ  Lutheran School (RCLS) to host the Fifth Annual Taste of the Coast at Barefoot Landing!

Local restaurants will set up booths and offer samples of their specialties. This event promises to be “The Family Fun Event of the Year” offering a family-friendly atmosphere with something for everyone. The event will feature a huge “Kid Zone” with exciting games and activities including blow up rides, pony and camel rides, carnival style games, a balloon artist, face painters, and much, much more! Live entertainment will be provided throughout the day featuring local talent. Admission adults $1 or one canned good, kids are free. Food and ride tickets are $1 each.

The Taste of the Coast event will raise scholarship funds to benefit the students of Risen Christ Lutheran School through the support and efforts of the Grand Strand’s culinary community and Barefoot Landing. As a result of the Eagle Fund’s existence, Risen Christ is able to tell inquiring families that no truly needy child will be turned away. The event will bring community awareness and recognition to all participants.

In Conjunction with the festival, Risen Christ Lutheran School, Barefoot Landing, and its merchants will again be hosting a food drive to benefit the North Strand Helping Hand. Last year’s food drive raised over 5,000 lbs. of food and drink and we intend to collect even more this year!
