The citizens of South Carolina are served by and benefit directly from the economic development activities of the South Carolina Department of Parks, Recreation & Tourism (SCPRT). In South Carolina’s state parks, visitors are given the opportunity to experience the diverse natural and cultural resources that project the essence of South Carolina. Through SCPRT’s tourism-based Community and Economic Development efforts, it is able to extend the benefits of tourism to all areas of the state and to assist rural and lesser-developed communities in generating economic activities. By promoting tourism, SCPRT plays a key role in accomplishing the objective of increasing personal income of South Carolinians.
