CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Summerville High School says renovations to their historic Memorial Stadium and McKissick Field are currently underway.
Summerville High School Athletic Director Brion Rutherford says the key component of the renovation is the installation of their new synthetic turf field. He says this is a lengthy process they started last week.
Rutherford says the renovations are a joint project between Dorchester County, the Town of Summerville, and Dorchester School District Two. Ultimately, he says he expects the improvements to the field and stadium to not just benefit the school, but the entire community.
