Lake Hartwell Safety Alert This Weekend | Greenville News

Lake Hartwell’s water levels are dangerously low this Labor Day weekend, exposing hidden hazards like submerged logs, rocks, and sandbars that could wreck your boat. The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is sounding the alarm, urging boaters to slow down, stay sober, and always wear life jackets—especially for kids under 13. With at least five drownings this summer, safety is critical. Boaters are also being reminded to keep a hundred feet between vessels and to head back to shore immediately if lightning strikes. Increased patrols and boat inspections are underway across the state to keep everyone safe on the water. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
