PICKENS — The Pickens Village Library gave community members the opprotunity to learn about upcoming initiatives and share their thoughts and ideas for the future of the City of Pickens with the recently elected city council and Mayor Isaiah Scipio on Monday night.
The event saw people from around Pickens greet and learn more about the Picken City Council, which saw four new members elected last November.
The event also saw the reunion of Scipio with John Jones, his former coach from his time at South Carolina State University.
Long-time reunion
Nearly 43 years after getting a basketball scholarship to play at South Carolina State University, Pickens Mayor Isaiah Scipio was reunited with his college coach John Jones during Monday night’s Meet the Mayor and Council event at the Pickens Village Library. Jones, who came to the event from Raleigh, N.C., with his wife Matie, recruited Scipio to play for the Bulldogs after stellar career at Pickens which saw the Pickens Mayor twice earn all-region nods. As a junior in 1980, Scipio was a key member of the 22-2 Blue Flame that advanced to the state quarterfinals. Pictured from left: Matie Jones, Isaiah Scipio, John Jones and Pat Mulkey.
