I'm not aware of any. I think the hard part would be getting the land owners permission and finding a place that hasn't been hunted. Good luck.

Moncks Corner is a beautiful place. The deal is to hunt private property with permission. If the owner says 'yes' you are good to go. GL&HH.

Dain-Brammage, that link is about state-level (state parks) and some federal stuff. Not city level stuff. This question was about a city.

To the extent a few city's get listed there in that link, (a grand total of 2 or 3 ?) the city of Moncks Corner wasn't one of them.

You are mistaken, it very clearly shows city's and even points you to the the online statutes for that particular city

I am in North Charleston also, are we aloud to hunt on school property?

Garrett-ace350, turn your question around the other way, and ask yourself: Why wouldn't it be allowed ? For example, do others go there after school hours to jog the track, shoot hoops, etc.... ? If so, would think to yourself : "I wonder if I can fly frisbees there?" (afterall, you might poke someone's eye out).

Odds are, any question like this, would not be about md'ing in-particular (I highly doubt there's anything specific in school yard codes about that anywhere). Instead it would revolve around persons at all being there after school for any purpose. And I'm sure if you asked long enough and hard enough, you'd always find someone to say "no". But as you can see, there is usually no shortage of someone walking their dog, shooting hoops, etc.... An exception might be if you're in an area where the schools are truly buttoned up with fences that have utterly no entrance.

And dain-brammage: I've gone back to the link again, and there's a whopping 1 or 2 cities there. Just a few that have happened to dream up something when it came across their desk as a "pressing issue that needed answering". It doesn't list "all cities".

I don't know about NC but my buddy who lives in TN said that I was lucky to be able to hunt schools in the part of GA I am in. He said they are all off limits in TN.
I only hunt a couple of old elementary schools that are small and kind of out of the lime light. I also go at daylight when school is not in session. Avoid look-ie Lou's and you will be way far ahead than waltzing in while school is in session during prime time for people to be shooting hoops, throwing frisbees etc. I think in general there is a negative connotation that we "detectorists" are there to rape the grounds of golden jewels and leave big holes everywhere!
