CLEMSON —
Ernie Mitchell said one guest at Saturday’s event celebrating his parents’ anniversary wasn’t able to find a card he thought would be appropriate for the

It’s not a typo or a joke — Ernie’s parents, Lloyd and Marie Mitchell, were married in Walnut Ridge, Ark., on Jan. 27, 1945.
They said their vows and were pronounced husband and wife by C.P. McCullough just five

Council further discussed those options during its Committee of the Whole meeting Jan. 21.
The first option — doing nothing — would see the county retain its $20 road user fee, which generates enough money to only pave around six

EASLEY — A plan two years in the making was finally given unanimous approval by the Pickens County School Board on Monday night, imposing new start and dismissal times for middle and high school students starting in the 2020-21 school year.
Assistant superintendent for secondary education Josh Young said middle and high schools, except for Dacusville Middle School, will run on a daily schedule of 8:30 a.m.-3:15 p.m. Young said the reason for the change was to separate bus routes for elementary and secondary students for safety purposes.
