Florence keeps moving, and we're keeping up so you don't have to. Here's what's happening this week, updated every Monday.
A fresh week starts. No major events on today's calendar, but it's a good day to browse Florence Stories or check Jobs in Florence if you're on the hunt.
The Florence County Planning Commission meets tonight at 6:00 PM at the County Complex. Open to the public if you want to see what's shaping the city's growth firsthand.

The Greater Florence Chamber hosts its Women in Commerce Luncheon at the Florence Center. Mingle and mocktails start at 11:30 AM, with lunch and the program at noon. Keynote speaker is Elizabeth Bostian, CFO at First Bank.
No major events confirmed yet for today. Check Today in Florence throughout the week for anything newly added, or browse the calendars from Visit Florence and the Florence County Library for the latest.
Applications for the 2026 Youth City University are closing soon. This seven week program gives Florence high schoolers an inside look at local government, straight from city leaders and department heads. If you know a student who'd be a good fit, now's the time.
7 Brew's new drive thru coffee stand opened this month at 141 Pamplico Highway, bringing 50 new jobs to the Pee Dee. Open early to late, seven days a week. The City of Florence has also introduced a dedicated rear loader recycling truck to its sanitation fleet, part of an ongoing effort to modernize city services.
7 Brew is hiring as part of its new location launch. If you're job hunting or considering a change, Young Florence SC keeps an updated list of local openings, scholarships and support resources built specifically for our community.
Construction continues on The Gamble Apartments at the corner of Coit and Baroody, a four story, 102 unit building anchoring the city's Urban Square redevelopment. It's part of a $65 million project that will eventually bring townhomes, office space and a hotel downtown, with the apartments expected to be finished in late 2026 or early 2027. We're watching this one closely and will update you as milestones hit.
