Golf Takes Over the Lowcountry

It's an exciting time in the Lowcountry as the 94th Annual PGA Championship teed off yesterday at the prestigious Kiawah Island Golf Resort on the outskirts of Charleston. They're expecting up to 30,000 people to descend on Kiawah for the event each day. So far, it's been warm and a tad rainy but all the professional golfers involved are hitting the course with a vengeance. 





We love that our men and women in the armed forces will be able to attend for free. According to the PGA website... 

To honor the men and women who serve our country in the armed forces, active military personnel receive complimentary Daily Grounds access to the 2012 PGA Championship. A valid active military ID is required on the day of attendance to receive the free ticket, which can be obtained at the Admission Sales and Will Call Office. One additional spouse ticket will also be complimentary with the presence of an active military ID, even in the event of a Championship sellout.

There will be a maximum of 156 players and the crowds are already swarming around them. Watch the local coverage of them here! 

This is just another reason that living in the Lowcountry is grand. I hope you will come out to visit us and maybe even decide to move to Daniel Island, we'd love to have you!
