The bill, S. 502, is a concurrent resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly that requests the Department of Transportation to name a specific stretch of Knights Hill Road in Kershaw County as the "Steeplechase Thoroughfare of America." This section extends from Springdale Drive to Carter Street and aims to honor Camden's significant contributions to the sport of steeplechase racing, which is highlighted by its reputation as the "Steeplechase Capital of the World." The resolution emphasizes the historical importance of the Springdale Race Course and the National Steeplechase Museum, both located along this road, as well as the economic and cultural impact of the equine industry in the area.

The resolution calls for the erection of appropriate markers or signs at the designated location to commemorate this naming. It reflects the General Assembly's recognition of Camden's pivotal role in equestrian excellence and aims to celebrate the community's heritage and ongoing contributions to the sport. A copy of the resolution will be forwarded to the Department of Transportation for implementation.
