Beaufort County’s daily bulletin announced facility upgrades at the Buckwalter Recreation Athletic Complex in Bluffton, including installation of the county’s first county-maintained artificial turf multi-use fields with lighting.
The on-air notice said the project is a multi-million-dollar investment and that a groundbreaking ceremony took place this morning at 10:00 a.m. at the Buckwalter Recreation Center, 905 Buckwalter Parkway. The bulletin described the complex as using about 140 acres on Buckwalter Parkway and called it a regional destination for recreation.
The spoken bulletin listed an investment figure that is unclear in the transcript (it reads "$14.6 6 million"). The broadcast directed listeners to the county’s Parks and Recreation or county news channels for more information rather than providing a definitive URL in the announcement.
