Taste of Charleston

November 11-17, 2018

James Island County Park  Campground, featuring six miles of paved hiking/biking rails, beautiful scenery and more will be our home site for this event.  We will be camping right in the middle of  the Holiday Festival of Lights .  This spectacular festival brings in the winter season with scenes of Santa’s Village, Winter Wonderland, carousels and trains.  Over 3 million shimmering lights are used to create this 3 mile long festival of lights.  Take a bus tour of historic downtown, a boat tour of the Charleston Harbor and a tour of Fort Sumter where the Civil War began in April of 1861.   A visit to Boone Hall Plantation is planned where we will experience a working plantation  which was established in 1681.  A beautiful towering live oak canopy over the estate’s entry lane provides a gracious welcome to this property.  New this year is a tour of the Charleston Tea Plantation, a visit to the Angel Oak and a Patriots Point Tour  where you will see one of the world’s largest naval and maritime museums.  Visit the USS Yorktown, the famous fighting lady of World War II along with the Destroyer Laffey from the world War II D-Day Landings.   We will visit the Confederate Navy’s H. L. Hunley which is undergoing restoration and learn about its ill-fated mission.  Dine at one of the Southeast’s most renowned seafood restaurants.  Hyman’s Seafood House, a family owned restaurant, in historic downtown Charleston started in 1894 as a wholesale dry goods store and changed to a restaurant in 1987.   Take time to visit Charleston on your own.  Beautiful sandy beaches, native wildlife, marshes and forests are just some of the wonderful sites to behold in Charleston.  We hope that you will join COA  for this little “Taste of Charleston”  and experience  a week full of history, fun and fellowship not to mention meeting new friends along the way!
