The opening of Tega Cay SC Catawba Park is exciting for everyone. It offers 62 acres of fields for baseball, softball, and soccer, PLUS it has a playground and outdoor gathering spaces. This is truly an active family's dream! Tire those kids out!
The Catawba Fest will be the first event at Catawba Park and the city manager, Charlie Funderburk, is excited to host it there. The event is on October 29th and runs from 11 am to 8 pm. They usually have about 75 vendors, but this year they expect to double that! There will be overflow parking at the Gold Hill Middle School lot, and there will be shuttles running throughout the entire day.
With the popularity of Fall sports in Tega Cay, this facility was sorely needed. They had over 2,000 participants this year in the youth sports programs. That number is steadily growing each year.
The fields are artificial turf which is great in that they need less maintenance, and the weather won't be an adverse effect on them as was the case previously. This is just a great asset to the community.
