Summer Calendar for Edisto Events

Newly expanded fuel dock at Edisto is ready to welcome boaters

The Memorial Day holiday weekend is the traditional beginning of summer. Most schools are getting out for summer, and family vacations to the beach are an annual rite of passage. The summer weather pattern is already in place with long sunny days on tap for the next three months. The full moon in late May jump started the sea turtle nesting season, and the countdown for those watching for the first hatchlings is already underway. Fishing tournaments are almost every weekend from now until the Edisto Billfish Tourney in July.

            

Golfers have had a good spring watching the annual tandem of The Masters and The Heritage. Professional golf is returning to the Lowcountry on May 30 in Charleston with the Women’s U.S. Open golf tourney. The Country Club of Charleston will host the week long event that will feature the top female golfers in the world. This will be a first for the Lowcountry to host a major tourney for women golfers. Plan to support this event, because it will be held in Houston, Texas in 2020.

            

The Edisto Cookin’ On The Creek Barbecue Festival will be held Friday May 31 and Saturday June 1 in Bay Creek Park. This waterfront park by the Marina at Edisto Beach has an amphitheater for live music, and a grassy area for vendors and lawn chairs. The teams of the South Carolina Barbecue Association that compete at this event are serious pit masters that take their craft to a high level. Friday night is the wing throw down from 6 to 9, and the BBQ tasting on Saturday is from 11 – 2, with a ten dollar daily admission.
