Plain-language change summary

The recent changes to Bill H 4047 allow golf courses in South Carolina to sell alcoholic drinks—both liquor and beer and wine—for consumption on the premises. This means that golfers who are at least 21 years old can enjoy drinks while they play, as long as the golf course is properly licensed. This amendment is significant because it could enhance the golfing experience and potentially attract more customers to the courses.
