Mayor Ross..."a cook for kids"! That
sounds more realistic!
Will the First Lady of Blythewood be there with a
video camera to later remind the Mayor that
he is "a cook"?
Chef Tony Crout,
from Doko Smoke, will be there to guide Mayor Ross as
he cooks his favorite recipe with 99 other prominent men from the
Midlands. That should be fun!

for more information.
Effective May 5th, 2017
there will be a weight restriction on Bear Creek Road,
over South Branch of Bear Creek
( S-40-221). A SCDOT inspection recommended a
weight restriction of 8 TONS per axle and 33 TONS GVW which was
determined,
based on the bridge type, existing bridge conditions
and recent repairs.There is a map at Town Hall if you need more
information.
Septic Assistance in Twenty-five Mile Creek Watershed
Richland County Conservation Department has a
new opportunity for residents in the Twenty-five Mile Creek Watershed
to receive 60% financial assistance to repair or replace failing
septic systems. This watershed includes portions of
northeastern Richland County and western Kershaw County (parts of
Blythewood, Sandhill, Elgin, Pontiac, and Lugoff), as well as a sliver
of southern Fairfield. They are sending a direct mailer to
everyone with an address in that area.

The Mayor received a wonderful email from Meredith,
who was the catalyst behind Blythewood Gives.
She was thrilled to tell the Mayor of all the
reports/stories she received about the Saturday, Blythewood
Gives Day...
Cookies made for the Bear Creek fire department,
Grace Coffee gave free drinks to teachers,
stuffed animals were given to the police and fire
departments,
100 books donated to the R2Ready to Read program,
toys to take to the Family Shelter and Toby's Place,
a truck load of food for CAB,
trash pick-ups in neighborhoods,
12 bags of clothing and supplies for the homeless,
quarters left in the car wash for the next person's
treat
and IGA's food drive.
One gentleman paid for several peoples grocery!
198 hours were pledged for service in the community!
Sounds like an annual event to me with even more people doing
random acts of kindness that supports our wonderful community!
Thanks from Meredith and the Mayor!
