SUMMARY:Hundred Acre Woods
DESCRIPTION:Hundred Acre Woods – SI Group\nOrangeburg County\, SC\nRegional Director: Dave Kastner \nThis is a joint outing with the Carolina Butterfly Society.\nSI Group’s Orangeburg location has achieved Wildlife Habitat Council conservation certification for its “Hundred Acre Woods” program. WHC’s conservation certification program recognizes and certifies corporate habitat conservation and management\, both nationally and globally. \nSI Group’s Orangeburg site demonstrated its commitment to environmental stewardship by receiving the Certified Silver designation for 2018-2019\, signifying leadership among the more than 700 WHC conservation certification programs. \nThe site\, which has been certified since 2008\, consists of 315 acres with facility operations occupying 180 acres and the remaining 135 acres comprised of natural\, wooded buffer area bordering the Edisto River. Hundred Acre Woods is a volunteer-driven program in which team members share the common goal of implementing habitat projects to improve the biodiversity of the facility while maintaining WHC certification. \nThroughout the area\, four main trails are used for walking\, picture taking and wildlife observation. The volunteer team created a glossary to help people in the community identify trees and plants on the trails\, which have been used by Boy Scout and Cub Scout programs. \nThe Hundred Acre Woods program is recognized as meeting the strict requirements of WHC Conservation Certification\, WHC President Margaret O’Gorman said. “Companies achieving WHC Conservation Certification\, like SI Group\, are environmental leaders\, voluntarily managing their lands to support sustainable ecosystems and the communities that surround them.” \nDirections to: SI Group Hundred Acre Woods\nEntrance: Latitude 33.465068\, Longitude -80.884058\nMeeting Location: Latitude 33.464070\, Longitude -80.883587 \nFrom I-26\, use exit 145 (US-601):\nTurn onto US-601 S (St Matthews Road) and drive South toward Orangeburg for approximately 5.0 miles to the intersection of US-301 S / US-601 S (John C Calhoun Drive / Old Edisto Drive). Turn right (towards the West) onto US-301 S / US-601 S (John C Calhoun Drive / Old Edisto Drive) and drive approximately 1.7 miles to Cannon Bridge Road SW (which will be directly after the Dodge’s convenience store on the left side of the road). Turn left (towards the South) onto Cannon Bridge Road SW and drive approximately 1.2 miles to the third entrance on the left after crossing the railroad tracks (and just before the power substation fenced area). After turning in the entrance\, look to the right and drive behind the power substation fenced area towards the tree line. We will line our vehicles up near the tree line. When everyone has arrived\, Arthur Sweatman from the SI Group will lead the caravan of cars into the Hundred Acre Woods to a back parking/staging area. \nDinner: @ ~4:00 PM\nOriginal House of Pizza\n591 John C Calhoun Drive\nOrangeburg\, SC 29115\n(803) 531-4000 \nWe’re going back to a House of Pizza\, but this is the “original” one in Orangeburg.

Turn right (towards the East) onto US-301 S (Old Edisto Drive) and drive approximately 1.9 miles to the restaurant on the right. Old Edisto Drive becomes John C Calhoun Drive (it’s still US-301) where it crosses US-601 and the restaurant is about ¼ mile beyond the intersection.
