Exciting changes are taking flight at McCormick County Airport!✈️

Last week, we marked a new chapter with a groundbreaking ceremony and the final flight out. This pivotal safety project is our first step toward transforming the airport into a fully operational hub. As we embark on this major grading project, we're prioritizing safety and setting the stage for future developments, including hangars for full-time aircraft, fuel services to draw in new visitors, and a welcoming terminal building.

Our vision? To turn our small airport into a thriving community asset for transportation, economic growth, business recruitment, healthcare, public safety, and youth education.

And here's the coolest part: we've teaming up with the National Guard, utilizing units from Saluda, Edgefield, Newberry, and Lancaster Counties under the DoD Innovative Readiness Training program. This partnership offers hands-on experience for projects they might tackle overseas. Stay tuned for more updates as we soar to new heights! ✈️
