Exciting things are ahead for Great Falls! 🌿

Yesterday, we had the opportunity to hear more about the master plan for a new South Carolina State Park being developed along the Catawba River in Chester County.

The plans offer an exciting look at how this incredible area could welcome visitors while showcasing the natural beauty that makes Great Falls so special.

There’s still plenty of work ahead, but we’re excited to watch this project take shape — and even more excited about what it will mean for outdoor recreation and tourism in Chester County!

Stay tuned as plans continue to move forward. 🌿
