We need everyone’s help in following the pre and post event set up rules so that we can all experience a safe and successful Concert in the Park again this year. Please read over our reminders and we appreciate everyone’s help in doing their part to make it a safe and fun event for all!
- Personal Golf Carts – Personal golf carts are not allowed in the park unless being used by the POA/event staff for logistics and trash removal. Please unload from the street and park your golf carts on nearby streets or in the Daniel Island School parking lot.
- Set Up For Event – Please do not set up any items until Thursday, May 9th after 12:00 PM. Any items placed, staked or left at the park before this date and time, may be removed and discarded by the POA staff. Please remember that there are irrigation lines and other cables underground that are subject to rupture by stakes being driven into the ground. We would ask that if you are planning on putting up a 10 x 10 tent or cordoning off an area (only large enough for your immediate party), that you do not drive or stake any long stakes, poles or rebar into the ground. Tents should instead be ballasted by bricks or jugs of water filled with water or sand. Due to the winds that frequently come up at the park, all tents need to be ballasted so that they do not become a projectile or end up in someone’s yard or the lake during a pop up storm. Any damage caused by these tents will be incurred by the person owning the tent/setup. If you are planning on setting up a tent, we do suggest that you lower it until the afternoon of the event and once you are on site to prevent it from becoming a sail while you are not at the venue attending to the tent/setup. The landscape maintenance contractor for the Daniel Island POA, The Greenery, will perform weekly landscape maintenance at Smythe Park on Wednesday, May 8th and Thursday, May 9th and they will need access to ALL areas of the park for mowing and other maintenance duties. The Daniel Island POA does not accept/assume any responsibility or liability for any items that are left unattended at any time (either before the event or post event) in the park. All items brought into the park need to be removed from the park at the close of the concert on Saturday, May 11th.
- Alcohol – We are required to have City of Charleston police at the event. Please do not take alcohol out of the park.
-
Alligator Awareness – Please be sure to monitor your children during the event especially if they venture close to the waters edge. Alligators periodically move from pond to pond and they may be present. For everyone’s safety, we ask that you keep a safe distance to avoid any potential encounters.
