A Community “High-Five” for South Carolina

October 7, 2015

CHARLESTON, SC — The South Carolina Aquarium has reopened and is ready to host families for a fun day of adventure and learning. Now through Sunday, Oct. 11, 2015, the Aquarium is giving the community a “high-five”; guests will receive $5 off admission when purchasing a ticket at the gate. It’s a chance to enjoy a few hours of much needed family fun with the animals that call the Aquarium home.

“In the wake of recent events, we felt it was important to provide families with some much needed fun and relief,” said Kevin Mills, Aquarium President and CEO. “It’s one way we can give back to a community that has been so generous to us over the years.”

This discount will be automatically applied to an onsite purchase and does not apply to online ticket purchases. For more information call (843) 577-FISH (3474).
