Out and About in Charleston: Charleston Battery Soccer Game

As part of our race pack from the Sustainability Institute 8k/5k, we got free tickets to the Charleston Battery soccer game on Friday (”green” vendors were also at the game). We met up with a group of friends at Madra Rua before catching a (free) on the LEEP biodiesel bus to head over to Blackbaud Stadium on Daniel Island. This was my first professional soccer game, and I couldn’t have asked for a better time. The weather was beautiful, the stadium was bustling (without feeling cramped), the game was intense, and the homemade kettle corn was delicious!

It’s definitely an event that Daniel and I plan to attend again.

We started from the downtown Olde North Charleston area of Park Circle, which was continuing the North Charleston Arts Festival with a block party (side note: Daniel and I went to Art Walk on Wednesday evening, and it was fantastic):
