Gardner Lacy Road Median Planting Project
Thank you to the volunteers who came out to support Beautify Carolina
Forest to clean up the medians on Carolina Forest Blvd in front of
Kroger. Thank you to the Horry County Police (Officers Milton Gore, Earl
Ward, Blake Colhoun and Sgt Larry Graham) for providing traffic control
during the project, Solid Waste Authority for dumpster for yard waste
and Tim McGinnis for sandwiches and beverages. We have a little more
work to do but what got done, looks great.

Median Beautification Project
The Carolina Forest Median Beautification Project is a multi-year,
phased project that will augment and refresh existing landscape and
gradually landscape other medians on both Carolina Forest Boulevard and
River Oaks Drive over a multi-year time frame. Plants approved for the
medians include: crape myrtles, sabal palms, knock-out roses, ornamental
grasses, and flowering perennials. The total project cost is estimated
at $25,000 and funding for the project is entirely through grants and
donations. In an effort to continue this project and future beautification plans, we would appreciate your donation to
help us complete this community project.

Mission Statement
To Enhance the Natural Beauty of Carolina Forest
To Enhance the Natural Beauty of Carolina Forest
Beautify Carolina Forest was established as a result of a desire to improve the appearance of the streetscape and gateways into our community. The organization identifies areas, such as roadway medians, that can be beautified through planting of trees and shrubs. Concept drawings are developed and approved by county planners and engineers, and funding sources are identified, such as a Palmetto Pride grant. Individuals, businesses, HOA’s, and organizations, such as Keep Horry County Beautiful, are asked to partner with our volunteers and assist Beautify Carolina Forest in reaching our goal. Fundraising remains key to this all volunteer program.
Increasing the beauty of our surroundings is the primary objective of this organization. Unfortunately, litter and unkempt areas are a distraction from the natural beauty of the Carolina Forest area. Areas in need of additional care and maintenance are identified and rectified through cooperation with local and state agencies. Participation in the Great American Cleanup rounds out a nationwide push to keep our communities beautiful.
A beautiful, non-littered community inspires everyone. The organization’s involvement in future beautification planning in our community is ongoing to keep Carolina Forest Beautiful!
