TRACK Trails Grand Opening

On October 16, 2024, Kids in Parks and the BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina Foundation will celebrate the grand opening of the Kids in Park TRACK Trail at Lynches River County Park in Coward, SC. The ribbon cutting ceremony will take place at 10:00 am at the trailhead, which is located in the boat landing parking area at the front of the park. This new TRACK Trail is the 1st TRACK Trail in Florence County. Lynches River County Park provides families with multiple opportunities to learn about the natural, cultural, or historical resources of the Pee Dee while they hike, bike, and enjoy nature. The Kids in Parks TRACK Trail offers visitors a series of self-guided activities that turn an ordinary hike into a fun-filled, discover-packed adventure. The trail’s River through the Ages activity helps kids learn about the journey of a river; while the Tracks & Traces activity helps kids search for evidence of some of the park’s native animals.

Best of all, the fun doesn’t stop when the trail ends! Kids who participate in the program can register their TRACK Trail adventures at www.KidsinParks.com to earn a series of prizes designed to make their next outdoor adventure even more fun and meaningful. Since the program’s inception, more than 1-million TRACK Trail adventures have been completed by kids. To learn more about TRACK Trails visit KidsinParks.com.
