Our Kid-Centric Event Guide for Families with Children Ages 0-6
Moore County » May 19-25
This week, pick your perfect kind of “night out:”
📚 On Tuesday evening, spend a few peaceful hours, book in hand, with Silent Book Club of the Pines — no chatting, just cozy vibes.
🍸 On Saturday, from 7-9 PM you can join fellow moms for a night out at Cork — sip, laugh, and still make it to bed by 10. Please RSVP if you’re going to this one!
On another note: O’Neal School is hiring! They’re looking for a few Lower School teachers and a new PE/Athletics Coordinator to join their team. Any Pre-K openings are listed under the Access the Village page.
