Pleasant Ridge Park History
This 240 acre park is the Recreation District’s jewel in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It was developed by the SC Commission of Forestry and the SC Department of Parks, Recreation, & Tourism in the 1940’s to promote tourism in the Upstate. The park was established for the African American community. Neighboring Paris Mountain State Park was built for the white community. In the 1960’s both parks integrated. In 1985 the State decided that other parks like Jones Gap within 30 miles of Pleasant Ridge were capturing most of the tourism traffic and offered Pleasant Ridge to the Greenville County Recreation District. The park has since been a favorite get-away, just 40 minutes from downtown Greenville, for local residents. A 4 acre lake offers traditional waterfront activities. There are also picnic shelters, trails, and a playground. Pleasant Ridge will also be the new home to Camp Spearhead, a 40 year old residential program for individuals of all ages with special needs. Construction will begin in 2009 on a camp/conference center facility that will provide year round state of the art recreational opportunities. The ten million dollar facility is made possible through the supplemental funding from Greenville County Council, the Greenville County Hospitality Tax, an allocation from the State of South Carolina, the Cliffs Communities, and the generosity of the private sector.
