π§ Waccamaw Rec Center Update π§
July 10, 2025
This year, three new HVAC systems have been acquired and installed at the Waccamaw Regional Recreation Center. In addition, repairs and upgrades have been made or are in progress to the systems serving the gymnasium, senior/kitchen areas, and locker rooms.
While HVAC systems remain down in several county recreation centers, Waccamaw has been prioritized for repairs. However, the availability of parts has caused delays. Currently, components needed for the gymnasium HVAC system are on order. These parts must be custom fabricated, and the manufacturer has indicated they will not be available until mid-August. These parts will be installed immediately upon receipt.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this may cause our facility users. Despite these challenges, the Waccamaw Regional Recreation Center has reopened as of July 10, 2025. Please note that the gymnasium will remain without functioning HVAC until the required parts are received and installed. As a result, temperatures in the gym may remain elevated.
Staff will continue to monitor conditions closely and make every effort to accommodate as many programs and users as possible. We appreciate your continued patience and understanding as we work to restore full functionality to the facility.
Please do not hesitate to contact me directly with additional questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Beth Goodale
Director, Georgetown County Recreation & Community Services
