Events & Activities
Christmas in the Village
Each December, OSCO and the Landon Library fill the ValuMart garden centre with more than 300 Christmas trees for sale. OSCO and Landon Library share the proceeds, providing valuable funds for community projects.
Gathering on the Green
Gathering on the Green is a free, fun day of activities and entertainment held on the first Saturday in June, rain or shine. It is run by volunteers and supported by OSCO and local businesses. Gathering on the Green has donated more than $300,000 to projects and organizations in Old South.
Chili Cook-off
OSCO runs the Chili cook-off in February/March each year to chase away the winter blues. With the best chili from local at-home and professional chefs, this is an event you don’t want to miss!
