Ever Heard of Aiken, SC

I have lived in Aiken, SC for a little of two years. I was not sure if I would like this town because I was born in a very small town and moved to the capitol of South Carolina. They I met someoone and moved to Aiken. I was nervous about going back to a small town because of resources, but I have lacked nothing so far.

I have found that Aiken is a great community!!!! They have plenty to do for families, singles, older, younger, rich, poor - in other words everyone. It is not too big (even though traffic can get heavy at times) and not too small.

I just wanted to see if there were others out there that have either visited or lived in Aiken or just heard about Aiken.

I've heard about the Lobster Races in Aiken. How did this tradition get started?

Well, according to the development committee in Aiken, the lobster races were started as a party, to have something fun to do to bring the community together and also to race money for the disabled and slow. This past year has been 24 years since the lobster races started.

My dad lived in Aiken for some time. But now he's living further north, closer to Charlotte.
