Thankful for ‘things to do’

Lake Hartwell Escape Room is the latest attraction to enter the fold in Hart County and we’re happy to see a steadily growing group of businesses and services in the area that offer kids and families — simply put — something to do. We’re blessed as a community with our proximity to Lake Hartwell.
