Man Praised For Work With Youth

Sunday afternoon I went to an Eagle Award ceremony for Smith Gaddy, a very deserving scout. I learned that head scout master Ricky Gardner will be retiring from scouting soon. The Eagle award is earned by approximately 4% of scouts. Scout Master Gardner’s Troop 777 in Latta has 15 eagle scouts out of Gardner’s original 20 boys.

Entries Sought For Tomato Contest

The chairman of the Dillon County Tomato Contest, Tom Rowland, announces the rules for the 2012 event. The contest has grown to almost 30 participants last year, and they hope others will join them and showcase their skills in growing quality tomatoes. Any Dillon County citizen may enter the contest, and the tomato plants may be planted at the grower’s discretion. The tomato plants must be grown in Dillon County, and only four plants per entry will be judged.
