CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — From performers to free peaches, South Carolina’s tourism industry will be working to tell the story of the state’s attractions to those attending next month’s Democratic National Convention in nearby Charlotte.

“We certainly believe a lot of folks will take advantage of being in Charlotte to see some of South Carolina’s tourism attractions such as Charleston, Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head,” said Jane Scarborough, the executive director of the state’s Olde English District that promotes tourism in seven counties between Columbia and Charlotte.
