Can you believe it? It’s the final farmers market of the season in Travelers Rest. The Apple Fest season finale is this Saturday, Sept. 20 and will feature plenty of apples picked straight from the farm, fresh apple donuts, and refreshing apple slushies.

We recently interviewed Andrea Koppelmann, Director of Client Relations at LPL Financial, and Paul Ryll, CEO of Oscar Mike Group — two professionals who’ve made Endeavor’s workspaces part of their weekly routine. Here’s why they keep coming back:

Member spotlight: Andrea Koppelmann


1. Why Endeavor?
The location is the best, the team is amazing, and the environment is professional. Everyone knows your name.

2. How has Endeavor transformed the way you work?
Since moving from Georgia, events like Collaborators & Cocktails have helped me meet professionals from diverse industries and build amazing friendships. My grandmother used to say, “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.”

3. How does an Endeavor membership fit your schedule?
The 24/7 desk access is a huge plus. Entrepreneurs don’t usually work a standard 8 a.m.-5 p.m. schedule — Endeavor is ready when we are.

Pro tip: Not ready for a dedicated desk? Try a five-day-a-month membership and drop in weekly to see how Endeavor enhances your routine.

News Notes

Coming Soon

Cool beans. Coffee chain Dutch Bros will open a location in Cherrydale. The drive-thru coffee shop — known for its menu of customizable drinks — is coming to North Pleasantburg across from ALDI. (Upstate Business Journal)

Civic

If you’re parking in the Richardson Street garage on weekend evenings, it will now cost you. The City of Greenville updated its website with a weekend parking rate of $10 on Fridays and Saturdays from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. the following day.

Real Estate

According to this listing, space in the Main Street storefront where Bond, The Comedy Zone, and Kilpatrick’s Public House are located will be available for lease starting in February 2026. The listing also teases the ability to “create a rooftop component.”

Development

Greenville County Council approved new zoning protections for Paris Mountain to preserve natural resources, maintain the mountain’s landscape, and balance new development with existing neighborhoods. (Greenville Online)

Sports

The Greenville Winter Invitational returns to Bon Secours Wellness Arena on Sunday, Dec. 21, with a college basketball matchup between Clemson and Cincinnati. Sign up to be notified when tickets go on sale.

Quoted

“Greenville is now one of the Southeast’s most inclusive cycling cities. That’s all thanks to the Swamp Rabbit Trail.” That’s what Blue Ridge Outdoors said about our city on its list of the “top towns for two-wheeled adventures.”

Number

42,000 sqft. That’s how big Miracle Hill’s new Wade Hampton Thrift Store is, with 350,000 items of clothing on the racks. It’s the biggest thrift store in SC and it just opened across from the ALDI in Taylors.
Rare find alert — residences in Ridgeland at the Park rarely come on the market. With luxurious high ceilings, modern upgrades, and a private patio just steps from the Swamp Rabbit Trail, it’s easy to see why. Take a look.*

Community

Greenville Federal Credit Union isn’t just a financial institution — they’re deeply involved in the community. Through grants, scholarships, and volunteer efforts, they support local youth, educators, and nonprofits. Learn more about the community impact.*

Edu

The Clemson MBA program’s Executive Board Learning Series returns this fall, offering hands-on, practical sessions in innovative business decision-making. Classes are held on Mondays from Oct. 6 to Oct. 27, with in-person and online options available. Learn more + register.*

Biz

Why are the same firms that backed Uber, Venmo, and eBay also backing Pacaso (Nasdaq ticker reserved: $PCSO)? Because it’s disrupting the $1.3 trillion vacation home market with co-ownership, already earning $110 million+ in gross profit in under five years. (And until midnight, you can join the 10,000+ shareholders.)‡*

Are you really making the most of your Prime membership? Here are nine Amazon Prime benefits you may not know about, all vetted by Brad’s Deals experts.*

The Wrap

SofarGVL is bringing hidden stages back to Fall For Greenville for the second year in a row. Here’s how they work:

  • The exact location will be revealed exclusively to ticket holders 36 hours before the show.
  • It’s a chance to experience a more intimate performance from featured artists from the festival lineup which will be playing scaled back or solo.
Secure your spot before it sells out. Tickets are extremely limited.
