“A spectacular summer splash of patriotic colors is about to emerge just around the bend from Daniel Island’s Waterfront Park – and Ron Zumstein says if you haven’t experienced it yet, it promises to stop you right in your tracks. “It’s an awesome display,” he said. “It will give you goosebumps.” Zumstein and his garden army of Exchange Club of Daniel Island members will skip their typical Saturday morning routine and instead gather at an unassuming swathe of greenery off River Landing Drive on June 24.”
