Quick Thought on Anniversaries in a Community

Was at Hartsville Drug Store this afternoon and Joe McCullogh, Jr. and I were talking about doing business in Hartsville. This year Hartsville Drug Company is 60 years old, founded in 1948 by Joe's father.

This past week the S. C. Governor's School for Science and Mathematics celebrated its 20th year of existence. It was established as a high school for students from around South Carolina who are good in science and mathematics. Those students who are accepted spend their junior and senior high school years in residence at this this State High School.

The Hartsville Fire Department is celebrating its Centennial this year and they will be recognized by the Mayor at the Selling Hartsville Launch on October 2, 2008.

Coker College is celebrating its centennial this year and they will be recognized by Mayor Michael Holt at the Selling Hartsville Launch in downtown Hartsville on October 2.

Just in these short anniversaries we see the Hartsville Art of Good Living pillars of Legacy, Livelihood and Learning and probably even Lifestyle. The other pillar is Leisure and there is probably an anniversary for that but I don't have it in the top of my mind.
