A 40,000-square-foot event center could open by March in South Hall, offering a 550-seat auditorium and performance theater, banquet rooms and conference space. After two years of planning and researching, the Wayne family broke ground on The Venue at Friendship Springs, which will be at 7340 Friendship Springs Blvd. behind the Publix shopping center off Friendship and Spout Springs roads. Just shy of 5 acres, the land is three miles from Interstate 85 and six miles from I-985; lots of rooftops in a 5-mile radius make it a prime spot.
