History
For many years, there had been a need for an EMS Memorial honoring those who served the Great State of South Carolina.
In a collaborative effort of members of the SC EMS PIER Team, SC EMS Association, SC EMS Educators Association and the SC Rural EMS Association, a plan to develop the memorial was born.
In a gracious moved by Calhoun County Council and Calhoun County EMS, the land and structure were offered with a lease option at the site of a new EMS substation. The committee took immediate intrest in this and we progressed from there.
