South Carolina Palm Trees

 

Seeing the palmetto tree and crescent moon logo everywhere does not have the same significance without the history behind it. One may think that the palmetto tree design is for the laid back good times abundant on the beaches in South Carolina and yet it is for the bravery of our fighting men. Charleston, South Carolina and Sullivan's Island have played a huge role in our nation's history. Every year on June 28th Charleston celebrates the day that Sir Peter Parker left our ports free from British rule. This June 28th celebrate Carolina Day by putting up your own palmetto tree and crescent moon symbol.
