Here are our staff’s picks for some awesome Moore County events for this week!
Friday

- Southern Pines Growler Company is putting the ‘Fun’ in ‘Fun Wine Friday’ from 4:30 to 6:30 this evening with its wine tasting. Why not wine down for the week?

It goes all weekend with a slew of events each day. Tickets are $15 for one day, $25 for two, and $35 gets ya in for all three days.
Saturday
- Even with these chilly temps we’ve had lately, it doesn’t hurt to get outside and enjoy the fall breeze. What better way to do that than Saturday’s first annual car show at The Pro Shop Auto Repair in Pinebluff? It runs from noon to five and has prizes at the door, plus the top three awards
- Before you take off and go see the fancy cars, go see some other vehicles in 13th annual Southern Pines veterans parade in downtown SoPi! It goes from 10 am to noon and boasts “marching bands, color guards, military vehicles, and veterans from different areas.”
- We all know your car is dirty. I know it, you know it, your boss knows it. Head on over to Advance Auto Parts in Aberdeen from 8 am to 3 pm on Saturday for a car wash for a cause, supporting local veterans with wreaths this holiday season.
Sunday
- It’s chilly season, which it means it’s #ChiliSZN where I’m from (the Midwest). Go get you a bowl at the chili cook off at O’Donnell’s Pub in Southern Pines, which again supports a good cause. Tickets are $10, and you get two voting tokens with entry. It is cash only at the door for those 16 and up.
- The Country Bookstore is hosting NYT bestselling author Lily King for her new novel, Heart the Lover, from 2 to 3:30 on Sunday. Tickets are just $5.35, with books available for purchase and autographs available.
