ORANGEBURG, S.C. (WOLO)– Using money from a referendum approved by voters last year Orangeburg County School District is renovating athletic facilities for its student athletes.

On Monday morning another one of the district’s 6 turf field projects broke ground.

The new athletic turf being installed at the Branchville High School will be used for both football and soccer games.
