University of South Carolina Baseball vs. Kentucky Wildcats Baseball

Times: TBA

Welcome, college baseball fans, to the 2022 college baseball season at Founders Park, home of the University of South Carolina Gamecocks! Stay with us … we’re just across the Blossom Street bridge overlooking Founders Park.  You’ll be close to the action without the traffic! Check-in to the friendly cities of Cayce and West Columbia.  All are welcome, whether Gamecocks visiting from out of town or visiting teams. There’s so much to do here after the game…you’ll #LoveLocal just like we do!

The friendly, safe areas of West Columbia, Cayce and Springdale offer:

 Less traffic / several routes away from Founders Park (cross either the Blossom Street Bridge OR the Meeting Street Bridge)
 Craft beer near the park and hotels (new! Savage Craft Ale Works, Steel Hands Brewery, and WECO Biergarten), all with outdoor patios, a new rooftop bar with creative American/French cuisine overlooking the City and River at Black Rooster and legendary eats like The Kingsman
 Friendly people (yes, even if you’re with the visiting team!) and a safe community
 Safe running & biking trails at our major parks, like the Riverwalk across from Founders Park with picture perfect views of the Bridge – Set up your canoe or tubing trip down the Congaree River with Palmetto Outdoor
 Instagram-worthy foodie restaurants and cafes within 5 miles of Founders park – try Vella’s quesadilla or the tacos at Duke’s Pad Thai
 Vintage, antique, thrift, and Army/Navy stores and 2 local golf courses!
 Close access to the Columbia Metropolitan Airport
 Cool places to take a selfie or group photo at the art murals in Cayce, including one artist selected by the NFL art project! (Click here for a list of all the art murals)
 Our river is still great for freshwater fishing all year! Stay the weekend and fish! Purchase a fishing license here.

Make it a long weekend, bring the entire family, and enjoy all that we have to offer! #ExploreLocal
