Teen & Family

A practical starting point for things to do, places to go, programs to join and resources that can make family life a little easier across Walterboro and Colleton County.

Built for Real Family Life

One place to figure out what is available.

You should not have to follow ten different pages just to find something for your child to do, check a school date, discover a family outing or figure out where to turn when your family needs help. Walterboro Shines brings the starting points together and sends you to the official source when details matter.

📚

Library & Learning

The Colleton County Memorial Library serves Walterboro and also operates branches in Cottageville and Edisto Beach, plus Bookmobile service around the county. Use the library for programs, books, digital resources, learning and a place to connect.

Sports & Recreation

Colleton County Parks & Recreation offers youth sports and activities designed to give young athletes organized, instructional and fun opportunities to participate.

School Dates & Information

A Space for Teens Too

Teenagers are part of this community right now.

Walterboro Shines wants this page to become more than a list adults made for young people. We want to keep finding activities, opportunities and spaces where local teens can participate, learn, create, volunteer and simply have somewhere positive to go.
