South Carolina has the ninth-worst obesity rate in the country, according to essmsc.org and dedicated individuals in Kershaw County are making an effort to battle that statistic and prevent obesity. The state’s Eat Smart Move More (ESMM) initiative encourages a healthy lifestyle and Kershaw County residents are benefitting from the program. So far, the program has funded improvements to Camden’s Scott Park to allow use during the winter months and the program has also enabled the installation of Share the Road signs and bike racks to encourage biking across the county.
