SUMMARY:Wayne Grooms Tribute Day
DESCRIPTION:A tribute to Wayne Grooms will be held on Saturday\, December 3rd and will begin at 1:00 PM at the parking lot. From there everyone will hike down to the new kiosk and dedicate it to Wayne. Bert Pittman and John Nelson will be leading hikes after the dedication. \nFrom the Nature Conservancy: \nIn Memoriam\nWayne Grooms \nWe were incredibly sad to say goodbye to our friend and volunteer of 30 years\, Wayne Grooms. Wayne passed away on June 12\, 2016. He was our unofficial caretaker of Peachtree Rock Heritage Preserve and the ultimate field-trip leader\, rare-plant finder and storyteller for all who encountered him on its trails. We liked to joke that Wayne knew the preserve better than our staff did — and it wasn’t really a joke. \nThe Nature Conservancy has created a memorial kiosk at Peachtree Rock in honor of all that Wayne contributed to this preserve. Join us on December 3 at 1 p.m. as we meet in the Peachtree Rock Heritage Preserve parking area\, then walk to the kiosk and share a few words. Guided hikes will follow\, led by botanists Bert Pittman and John Nelson. For more details\, contact Colette DeGarady at cdegarady@tnc.org or (843) 937-8807 x15.

SUMMARY:Vereen Memorial Park
DESCRIPTION:Vereen Memorial Park and Gardens\nHorry County\, SC\nRegional Director: Jeffrey J Kline\nDay of Contact: Kim Frampton McManus \nOur December field trip takes us to a quaint nature gem of a park. Vereen Park and Gardens is situated on a broad salt marsh along the Intracoastal Waterway\, and has three miles of trails and a nice marsh boardwalk and fishing pier. The park features historical\nsites as well as a beautiful natural environment\, including a stretch of the colonial-era King’s Highway\, and the Vereen family cemetery with Revolutionary War graves. There will be opportunities for kayaking also\, if anyone wants to bring their own boat. \nFor more information\, check out these links:\nhttp://grandstrandmag.com/feature/a_hidden_gem\nhttp://calabashtown.com/vereen-memorial-park-gardens/ \nRegional Director Jeffrey J Kline is scoping out a restaurant for us to try after our field trip is over. Since we’ll be just south of the famous eating destination of Calabash\, NC\, I think you can probably expect to dine on some Calabash-style seafood! \nDirections:\n2250 South Carolina Highway 179\nLittle River\, SC 29566\n(843) 249-4157 \nThe park is located right on US 17 in Little River\, South Carolina\, just about a tenth of a mile south of the North Carolina border. Stay on Highway 17 North until you reach Highway 179. Veer right and the gardens are immediately on your right. \nThere are no bathroom facilities\, portable toilets only. \nAdmission is free
