A 40,000-square-foot multipurpose event center is set to open in South Hall July 17 with a steady customer: Cross Pointe Church. But Jon Wayne, general manager of The Venue at Friendship Springs, also hopes to lure and is already booking other events of various sizes, from weddings to car shows and theatrical performances. Except for a few finishing touches, work is mostly finished and operations are gearing up at The Venue, which is at 7340 Friendship Springs Blvd., or behind the Publix-anchored shopping center off Spout Springs Road in Braselton.
