Ground was officially broken Friday, June 25, 2021 on a 50+ acre piece of land that will eventually become a large park adjacent to Bowen’s Corner Elementary.
The Hanahan Park (currently unnamed) will not only provide a place of recreation to area residents, but it will also be an additional space for BCE students during the day and Hanahan High athletics and programs in evening hours.
Several representatives of Berkeley County School District and its schools attended the groundbreaking ceremony in support of the project.
Plans for the park include:
- A field with synthetic turf
- Three soccer fields
- Six tennis courts
- One basketball court
- One sand volleyball court
- One playground
- One dog park
- Walking trails
- Pavilions for gatherings
- A recreation building with a concession stand and restrooms.
- A standalone restroom
- Animal control facility
- Maintenance facility
