Do you Know?...Now that
spring is here many of us get our hair cut shorter for the warmer
weather. Do you know who the first licensed barber was in
South Carolina who had a shop on Fire Tower Road in the
'50's? Known to the group who sat and visited the shop, this
witty man know as "Gap", had one style of
haircutting, shearing every hair off your head! If you know
the answer please email kellym@townofblythewoodsc.gov
for a treat from Town Hall if you are the first to respond.
