Tega Cay Has A New Place To Eat

June 06, 2011 By: Carmen Miller Category: Tega Cay News

The restaurant and bar facility at the Tega Cay Golf and Conference Center has reopened. The restaurant is called Casual Water at Tega Cay and the bar and grill is called the Drop and the Drink Bar and Grille. The Mike Frost Group was awarded a 5 year contract by the city of Tega Cay to reopen the facility in May 2011.

Carmen, Camden and I decided to give the reopened restaurant a try last Friday night. We walked into the main restaurant Casual Water’s and found it about 50% full on Friday about 7:30 pm. There was a new buzz of activity with several waiters on staff. We elected to sit on the patio outside the restaurant between the Bar and Grille and the restaurant since the main restaurant’s room temperature was too cold. (more…)

Tega Cay Rolls Out New Web Communication Tool

November 23, 2010 By: Scott Category: Tega Cay News

As another step toward better communication with Tega Cay residents, the City of Tega Cay rolled out their new website including combining all of their departments websites into one new website. The website is by CivicPlus based in Manhattan Kansas who specializes in “next generation” city, county, state and school websites”. The new site went live last Friday.

Here is what Mayor George Sheppard has to say about the City’s new website communication tool:

We have updated the website because the previous site just had too many limitations. With the new website we are able to stream Council meetings for those who don’t have channel 19 or are unable to attend meetings (they are not live, but they are there!). The calendar feature is also an exciting new tool; any resident can sign up to receive alerts of City functions. Once signed up residents will have the option to receive an email or a message to their cell phone reminding them of upcoming events. (more…)
