Charleston: Protect SC Beaches, Infrastructure Needed, Last School Day

Charleston: Protect SC Beaches, Infrastructure Needed, Last School Day

Life at the Beach

Recent articles about sea walls highlight the importance of understanding that beaches are living organisms composed of animal and plant life and sand. South Carolina’s shore and beaches are public assets owned by the public for public use. Various factors influence beaches, including wind, waves, beach slope, offshore sandbars, and man-made barriers. It is crucial for local governments, the state Department of Health and Environmental Control, the Army Corps of Engineers, and state legislators to prioritize the protection of South Carolina’s shore and beaches without compromise.

Infrastructure Needs

Leaders in Charleston County and its municipalities must address infrastructure needs before permitting further development. If infrastructure does not align with development, it can lead to increased costs, stress on natural resources, and citizen frustration. Examples include inadequate roadways in Mount Pleasant and destructive developments impacting wildlife refuges and historic settlements. Infrastructure should be the first consideration in any development planning to preserve the unique characteristics of the Lowcountry.

Last Day of School

As the school year comes to a close, many reminisce about the excitement of the first day and the bittersweet feelings of the last. For some, the last day of school signifies the beginning of summer activities, but for others, it is a farewell to the structured environment they have grown to love. The end-of-school rituals, such as cleaning out desks and playing board games, evoke nostalgia and a sense of fresh beginnings.

While the last day of school signals the start of summer adventures, it also marks the end of a chapter filled with memories of learning and growth. As students bid farewell to their classrooms and classmates, they look ahead to a season of relaxation and new experiences.
