Christmas Child Golf Tournament to be held at Mystic Golf
December 13, 2012 by James
This Saturday, December 15, Mystical Golf will be holding its ninth annual Christmas Child Golf Tournament at the Wizard, Man-O-War, and Witch golf courses on Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Mystical Golf is no doubt using poster printing to let the public know that this event is occurring, as proceeds from the Tournament go to the children and teenagers at the Lighthouse Care Center located in Conway, South Carolina, as well as the one in Augusta, Georgia.
Since 2003, the event has raised a grand total of $114,000, with $14,000 of that having been brought in last year. Children between the ages of 12 and 17 who suffer from behavioral disorders are cared for by the Lighthouse facilities. Funds received during the holiday season serve as rewards for good conduct and enable the children to go bowling, to attend football games at Carolina College, and to receive a new pair of shoes of their own choice, among many other prizes.
According to President and CEO of Mystic Golf, Claude Pardue, the goal of the Christmas Child Golf Tournament is to bring joy to kids in need during the holiday season. In the past, the community has been extremely supportive with this event, and Pardue expects the same show of support with this year’s event.
The Man-O-War and Wizard golf courses are the ones on which this year’s event will be played, with the style of the event being Captain’s Format. Prizes will be awarded in various categories and there will be raffle tickets available for purchase.

New levels reached in tourism in South Carolina
October 18, 2012 by James
The governor of South Carolina, Nikki Haley, announced this week that the tourism industry, which brings in $15 billion a year and is one of the largest industries in the state, has reached new levels and gained the attention as a popular destination for travel throughout the world. Charleston was voted the top tourist town in the world by readers of Conde Nast Traveler with Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head also among the most popular tourist destinations in the United States. In light of this, the state government no doubt used flyer printing and poster printing to make travelers and visitors more aware of what the state has to offer for vacationing and leisure activities.
There was more than a 3% increase in hotel room occupancy through August and the revenue per available room was close to 8%, indicating that the industry is approaching a healthy state.
According to Haley, a major contributing factor to the increase in these figures was the PGA Championship which was held on Kiawah Island and generated $92 million in revenues. This helped to place the state in the international spotlight and highlight it as a place to come to if one has not yet visited it, or to return if one has.
Revenues from visiting state parks were at an all-time high of $21 million for the fiscal year that ended June 30. According to Duane Parrish, State Parks’ Recreation and Tourism Director, at current rates of growth the state could return to those levels of revenue that were generated on 2007 – a record-breaking year.
