Surfside Beach holds contest for new fishing pier logo; winner gets free annual fishing pass.

Surfside Beach, South Carolina, is hosting a contest to design a new logo for its fishing pier, open to those 18 and older. Designs must be original and not AI-generated, with submissions due by March 31. Entrants can submit designs online or at town hall. The top five will be chosen by a committee, with the final decision by the Town Council. The winner gets a free annual fishing pass, a plaque, and logo recognition on media and merchandise. The pier reopened in 2024 after being destroyed by Hurricane Matthew in 2016.
