According to the organizers, guests will be able to stroll between various food stations that will feature food from local eateries along with wine and beer pairings.

There will also be a variety of tables throughout the span where guest can gather with friends, eat and enjoy the view.

Law enforcement officers will be in place all day to direct the traffic to the lower lanes of the dam. If you aren’t going to the event wish is sold out, or you don’t have to travel across the dam, it would be best to avoid the area. Guests will be parking at both parks on each side of the dam Sunday evening. They will be carried out to the event via shuttle. This will make it necessary for people who enjoy those SCE&G parks to change their plans just for Sunday. All lanes of the dam will reopen late Sunday after dark.
