The masses converged on Live Oaks Park in Port Royal over the weekend for hot oysters, cold beer and live music at the 50th annual Beaufort Charities Festival.
The two-day event, which began as a golf tournament in 1976 and morphed into an oyster roast before adding a second day in recent years, celebrated 50 years of dedicated service to the Beaufort County community.
“Reaching this 50-year milestone fills us with immense gratitude,” Beaufort Charities President Kevin Livingston said in a media release. “This isn’t just about an organization; it’s about the unwavering spirit of Beaufort County. Every volunteer, sponsor, and attendee has woven a tapestry of generosity that has empowered us to give back for half a century.”
As usual, all proceeds will directly benefit local nonprofit organizations.
