Graffiti may force authorities to close South Carolina nature preserve

CLEVELAND, S.C. — Wildlife officials said they may not be able to reopen a mountain nature preserve in South Carolina if people don’t stop spraying painting the rocks with graffiti.

The Bald Rock Heritage Preserve in northern Greenville County was closed March 28 as officials tried to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

But with the entrance blocked, the amount of graffiti on the rocks has increased.

The wildlife agency is asking Boy Scout groups or community groups to help clean the Bald Rock Heritage Preserve and is asking people nearly to report suspicious activity, WCIV reports.
