Camp Anderson after the Flood

On Friday, Saturday, and early Sunday, October 2-4, 2015, Orangeburg (like most of South Carolina) received at least 15 inches of rain, causing massive flooding. The rain caused a wave of water to rush into our Camp Anderson lake from upstream.  The floodwater overpowered our spillway, taking out a portion of our dam, and draining our lake.

This was our lake prior to the flood damage:
