And rounding out the festivities will is the Oktoberfest at Blackbaud Stadium on Sunday on Daniel Island from noon to 5.

This year's headline Oompah band is the Roger Gootman Sauerkraut Band, and there will be true German dancers, a wide selection of German beers, and a variety of Oktoberfest food.
