  • Dreher Shoals Dam
    Lake Murray, north of Columbia, South Carolina, is one of the oldest lakes in South Carolina. In 1930, a dam was completed. It was once the largest earthen dam in the world. There are three names associated with this dam, Saluda River Dam, Lake Murray Dam and the Dreher Shoals Dam. In 1928, the dam was officially named Dreher Shoals Dam, by a Concurrent Resolution of the South Carolina General Assembly. The other names were used by locals in conversation. The Dreher name was common in the area at the time of the building of the dam and to honor the owners of the land, the name was applied to the dam. The earthen dam and the newer dam completed in 2005, is called the Dreher Shoals Dam, from water fed by the Saluda River that feeds Lake Murray. The lake was named after William Murray, who was the chief engineer who oversaw the building of the earthen dam in 1930. The project was started in 1927. Clips of the building can be seen on the source, <lakemurrany.com> below. The Saluda River enters South Carolina at the border from North Carolina. The water eventually joins two other rivers and dumps into the Atlantic Ocean. The dam supplies water to the City of Columbia and serves as a hydroelectric power source. The building of the dam in 1927 was by Lexington Water Power, predecessor to SCE&G (South Carolina Electric & Gas) It required the relocation of 5,000 people, many churches and schools and over 2,000 graves. The dam is 1.5 miles wide and 208 feet high.

  • History of South Carolina State Parks
    H «ks History of South < Carolina State Parks Revised July 9, 1992 Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2012 with funding from LYRASIS Members and Sloan Foundation http://archive.org/details/historyofsouthcaOOunse HISTORY OF SOUTH CAROLINA STATE PARKS Revised July 9, 1992 In the early twentieth century, man began to have more freedom due to the progress of invention and industry. He began to look for areas where he could enjoy life, be with his family - close to nature and recreational areas. He needed land where he could see America as the first man did. All across the nation, people began to look for these places. The answer to their quest was in the creation of parks for the people, both state and national. THE BEGINNING Taking a cue from the establishment of the national parks, South Carolina began to think of state parks for her people. In 1934, the South Carolina General Assembly passed an act charging the South Carolina Commission of Forestry with the responsibility of state parks. This act was signed into law by Governor Ibra C. Blackwood. This action was prompted by the people of Cheraw who had donated 706 acres to South Carolina to be used as a state park. South Carolina was now on its way to providing her people with the recreational outlets they needed. THE WORK OF THE C.C.C. The development of the parks owes its greatest debt to the many young men who created the parks. In 1933 the Civilian Conservation Corps was established by the United States Congress under the direction of President Franklin Roosevelt.
