About Aiken County, SC

As seen in this weeks Aiken Standard, once again the county will take a look at the Blue Laws which currently govern what can and can't be sold on Sundays before 1:30 pm in Aiken County. Beer can be purchased at almost any gas station but building supplies, clothing, etc can not be purchased. It seems like if nothing else there needs to be an overhaul of the blue laws.

The county will decide in July.
