Gretchen D. Barron

Councilmember, District 7

Carolina Aquatics is proud to announce that we have been awarded a FY26 Hospitality Tax Grant from Richland County District 7 and Councilmember Gretchen Barron.

This support assisted us in hosting the 2025 Long Course Swimming Age Group State Championship Meet right here in Columbia, SC. The event welcomed hundreds of swimmers, families, and visitors from across the state—boosting tourism while showcasing the talent, dedication, and spirit of our athletes.

We are grateful for the partnership and commitment of Richland County and Councilmember Barron in helping us bring this exciting championship to our community. Together, we’re making a positive impact on youth sports and our local economy!
