Default What to do in Augusta??

Well, a couple friends and I will be taking a trip to North augusta SC, from florida this weekend. We are planing on staying saturday night somewhere in the area, and I guess augusta GA is the biggest city in the area?
We just want to find a hotel in an area that has something going on saturday nights.

Anyone in the area have any ideas, I'd sure appreciate it...

I don't get to see my friends much, so we want to try and have some fun, maybe find some girls....

Thanks

JD

I grew up there, and still have a lot of family around. Check out Carolina Dragway in Jackson, SC (if they're open). Columbia, SC is pretty big in comparison with Augusta as well, but there aint jack-**** in North Augusta (be warned). Can always go to Clark Hill lake if you feel like freezing your *** off. And of course there's always golf.

I know that Augusta did have a slot car track a few years back. Dunno if they still do. If so, that can be some good fun.
