Lower Savannah River Alliance, A joint effort to bring development to the Savannah River

Lower Savannah River Alliance


A combined effort between counties in Georgia and South Carolina to promote our wonderful natural resource.

The beautiful and historical Savannah River was once called the "Isundiga River" by the Indians in the Lower Savannah River Alliance Region.

The Savannah River is an important resource for both South Carolina and Georgia which can be enhanced and shared economically through nature-based tourism while protecting its natural beauty and uniqueness - the very things that make it so special and appealing.

The Lower Savannah River Alliance is composed of members from three counties in Georgia and four in South Carolina dedicated to helping develop this resource. (County maps) By working together stakeholders and the general public can both benefit from the almost unlimited potential of this area.

Our new home is the old South Carolina Welcome Center located about 9 miles south of Allendale. See map for location.

The Lower Savannah River Alliance is a two-state, seven-county organization formed to develop, coordinate, evaluate, facilitate, market and implement opportunities for the development and enhancement of nature-based businesses within the lower Savannah River region. This event is LSRA's first public event aimed at establishing these goals. The Alliance is comprised of representatives of Effingham, Burke and Screven counties in Georgia, and Allendale, Barnwell, Hampton and Jasper counties in South Carolina - all of which border the Savannah River.
