Charter School and Sewee Summit Breathe New Life into McClellanville
If the overall state of the world has got you down, I wanted to share a little good news with you. In the past couple of months we have seen great strides in resolving McClellanville’s two greatest deficits; Education and Employment. This summer brought news that the Cape Romain Environmental Education Charter School had gained […]

Fall Events in McClellanville
Plenty to do on the events calendar over the next couple of weeks in McClellanville as we enter into fall and the chill in the air hopefully fights off the mosquitoes. I’m also particularly proud because I built all of the websites mentioned in this article. October 26th at 7pm – Candidate Forum October 30th […]
“The New Daughter” Finally Released
More than two years after the filming of The New Daughter in McClellanville it has finally been released on DVD after witnessing brief and very limited theater screenings.

McClellanville Transformed into a Winter Wonderland…for a Brief Moment

November means Oysters in McClellanville
Looking for 2010 Village Museum Oyster Roast? I’ll go ahead and say it. I don’t like seafood.

I try not to open with this point, […]

McClellanville: 20 Years after Hurricane Hugo
It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 years since Hurricane Hugo muddied McClellanville’s timeline. The town has made an amazing comeback and it’s finally to the point that you don’t hear that four-letter word in everyday communication now. I certainly couldn’t say that 10 years ago. Time was still measured in terms of “before Hugo” […]
