Additional Notes:

The Young Single Adult Branch is excited to serve the town of Hollywood for the Day of Service. Hollywood is a thriving community located 15 miles south of Charleston, South Carolina on Highway 162 and encompasses 33 square miles with a population of approximately 5,000 residents. The median income level is $30,297 which is $11,697 below the national income average. The residents of Hollywood are rooted in a great heritage of pride and dignity. 
The city was fortunate to purchase “Wide Awake Plantation”, a seven acre plot of land off Highway 162. The town of Hollywood purchased the plantation because the city had no public access to the Stono River, a coastal waterway running through the state of South Carolina.
The plantation is immediately adjacent to the river. Because of the Charleston 4th Branch’s continued efforts, the plantation will be open to, not only the Hollywood town residents, but also Tri-county area residents. “Wide Awake Plantation” will provide a peaceful and serene place for the public to gather for: Family Picnics, Family Reunions, Weddings, Community Events, etc.
