The National Park Service has announced a change to the boundary of Congaree National Park in South Carolina. An additional 216.13 acres of land in Richland County is now part of the park, thanks to a donation from The Friends of Congaree, a nonprofit group. This change aims to help preserve the natural and historical features of the area. This boundary modification officially took effect on January 21, 2021.
Simple Explanation
The Congaree National Park got a bit bigger because some friendly people gave them more land to help protect nature. It was like adding a new piece to a jigsaw puzzle.
