River Roast South

Stay tuned for more information on this annual event.

Held early in the calendar year, this event dates back to the early years of Winyah Rivers Foundation. In 2008, it was brought back by popular demand. Our 3rd annual River Roast South @ Hobcaw Barony was held on Friday, January 29th and included our Annual Meeting for members in Kimbel Lodge. Attendees then took to the outdoors to enjoy the roaring fire, libations, with beer provided by our friends at New South Brewing Company, and delicious oysters and southern buffet items provided by Bob Mimms of Litchfield Beach Fish House. A great outdoor event!

Waccamaw Conference

The Waccamaw Riverkeeper hosts this annual educational conference for the public to learn about the importance of our local freshwater resources and how to protect them.
