Now open in Pickens
Big things are happening in the Upstate, and Noah’s Ark Plumbing’s ribbon cutting was just the beginning. The company is already setting the tone for what it wants the business to represent, bringing ambitious energy and a strong commitment to the Pickens community. On Feb. 27, the company celebrated its official ribbon cutting, surrounded by community members, friends, family and the Greater Pickens Chamber of Commerce. At the event, Noah’s Ark Plumbing spotlighted a special dog available for adoption and organized a supply drive benefiting not just one, but three local organizations — the Pickens County Animal Shelter, the Pickens County Humane Society and Roxie’s Thrifty Paws. Guests were also treated to a complimentary lunch catered by new chamber member Fatsos BBQ and Catering. This Christian, faith-based residential plumbing company was founded and is owned by Noah Kerlin. Proudly serving the Upstate, Noah’s Ark Plumbing strives to reflect protection, purpose and compassion, just like its namesake. Pictured are Noah Kerlin (owner), Sara Beth Kerlin (his wife), David Michel (chamber president), Ivy Michel (chamber ambassador), Melisa Sedler (chamber board member) and Meechi Green (chamber board member), along with other family members and friends.
Troop 51 spelunkers go exploring
Scout Troop 51 of Pickens recently took the Wild Cave Tour at the Lost Sea Caverns in Sweetwater, Tenn. The tour included a tour of the caverns, a boat excursion on the largest underground lake in North America and the “Cave Crawl,” which consisted of exploring a multitude of “cracks, crevices, nooks and crannies” on hands and knees and spending the night on the cave floor. It was an exciting trip for the 18 brave souls who went on the adventure and resulted in some very muddy clothes and sore bodies (mainly for the adult leaders, who are too old to know better).
