GEORGETOWN COUNTY, S.C. (WCSC) - A proposed state park plan would provide the public with new access to a 70-mile stretch of the Black River in Georgetown and Williamsburg Counties.
Several government agencies and private groups working together on the Black River Water Trail and Park Network say it will connect a number of pieces of land from the state and private partners like conservation groups to create a different kind of experience for people. Part of the initiative includes what would be the first new state park to open in South Carolina in nearly two decades.
