Celebrating 10 Years of Beauty and Community! In 2015, the Chapin Woman's Club created the Butterfly Garden at Crooked Creek Park in Chapin, SC — and now, 10 years later, it’s blossomed into something even more special! To mark this milestone, the garden has been expanded into a serene sanctuary for both butterflies and birds, featuring native and pollinator-friendly plants and a brand-new walkway so visitors can stroll safely while learning about the local flora. A perfect spot to relax, explore, and connect with nature! A heartfelt thank you to the Chapin Woman's Club for their continued dedication to enhancing our community and supporting local wildlife.
