Save the Date for next year's South Carolina Campground Cookoff!


The South Carolina Campground Cookoff will be held September 20-22, 2013 at Calhoun Falls State Park in Calhoun Falls, SC.

There is a definite art to cooking over charcoal or wood, especially if you have to contend with delightful aromas that drift by from campsite to campsite on a cool autumn morning coming off a lake. Such can be the story of campers who converge on Lake Richard B. Russell in Calhoun Falls, SC, for the annual South Carolina Campground Cookoff produced by the Old 96 District Tourism Commission. The event showcases the best of the best in campfire cooking and is in partnership with the Parks Division of the SC Department of Parks Recreation and Tourism.

Comments from a few of the 2012 cook teams:


"The great weather this year only made the weekend that much more enjoyable!"

"I come back each year to be with friends I made 5 years ago."
