• Aiken, named after William Aiken, the president of the South Carolina Railroad, is one of the two largest cities of the Central Savanah River area and home to the University of South Carolina Aiken. Known as “horse country” the Aiken Steeplechase Association hosts the Imperial Cup each March and the Holiday Cup in October.
