EDITORIAL NOTE: In this series of short videos running throughout the month of July, South Carolina leaders are briefly expounding on their experiences along the trail during the fourth annual SOUTH CAROLINA SEVEN (SC7) expedition.
The month-long SC7 expedition – primarily hiking, but also rafting, kayaking, and SCUBA diving – began in the Upstate, July 1, and will conclude in Beaufort and on Parris Island, July 30. Along the way, global expedition leader Dr. Tom Mullikin and other experts have been showcasing the state’s seven geographic wonders exploring, observing, and teaching along a unique trek closely paralleling several hundred miles of the famed Palmetto Trail from the mountains to the sea.
In today’s “SC7 minute,” Dr. Susan Johnson with the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) encourages South Carolinians and others to participate in the July 1-30 SC7 Expedition across the state. Speaking from the North Charleston Riverfront Park; Dr. Johnson, “the green health guru” for SC7, discusses the health and wellness benefits of being in the outdoors. She also discusses MUSC’s Adventure Out program, which has been incorporated into SC7 2023 among other events in the S.C. Lowcountry. MUSC is this year’s SC7 Health and Wellness Sponsor.
