Horry County WWII memorial honors Conway brothers, 4,000 others who served

CONWAY — On a clear day in the late 1930s, Horry County residents may have looked skyward to a wonderous sight. A fabric-covered, 40-horsepower Taylorcraft clipping the treetops — piloted by either James or Edward Norton, adventurous Conway High School seniors who took up flying after their parents said a motorcycle would be too dangerous. Within a decade, both men would be killed in action after carrying out a daring daylight air raid over Nazi-occupied Ijmuiden in Holland — but not until their B-26 Marauder was able to drop bombs on the heavily defended gas refinery. The Nortons — affectiona...

Five South Carolina Taverns Pouring Cold Beer And Frying Burgers Since Before You Were Born

Some bars open with a splash and close before the paint dries. The five taverns on this list did the opposite, sticking around for decades while the towns grew up around them. The oldest one started serving in 1938, and the youngest has been at it since 1972. If you want a burger with real history behind the counter, these South Carolina classics are worth the drive.

The man behind 100,000 Myrtle Beach memories: Why Jack Thompson is letting go of past

Jack Thompson thumbs through photos on his phone, occasionally stopping to tell the story behind the black-and-white frames. They’re all snapshots taken from a lifetime of chronicling Myrtle Beach’s history, starting when Thompson was a 13-year-old hitchhiker who made his way to the coastal city after hearing tales of beautiful girls in bathing suits and shag dancing on the beach. For 75 years, the 90-year-old has been the unofficial city historian, a recorder of long-gone Myrtle Beach landmarks such as the Pavilion and the opulent Ocean Forest Hotel, and a witness to such events as the devastating Hurricane Hazel in 1954, which transformed the Grand Strand. People would often say, “if Jack Thompson showed up, it must be important,” Thompson said. Thompson estimates he’s taken over 100,000 photos over the years — all based on the advice of his father, who was a newspaper editor. “My dad told me to photograph everything I thought was important, that one day it would be famous,” Thompson said. Now, the Garden City resident is preparing to let his collection go, selling off his archives so other people can enjoy them for years to come. “I’m beginning to admire the sunset more than the

Proposed SC-22 extension raises fears for SC refuge, flooding. Should you be worried?

The South Carolina Highway 22 Extension Project could already displace Horry County homeowners. But it also has raised concerns of critical wetland impacts and increased flood risk for residents who live downstream from the Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge. The refuge’s integrity and purpose could be impacted by the proposed highway, which is slated to run directly adjacent to the refuge’s boundary. Many local environmentalists are concerned with the opportunity for other development to sprawl and the impact it would leave on rural communities. “I can truly say that this is one of the most impactful development projects that that has ever been proposed along the North Coast, and it really could be devastating,” said Grace Gasper, executive director for Friends of Coastal South Carolina, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting the mission of federally protected land. Horry County has applied for permits through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Charleston District, to build a 28-mile highway extension connecting U.S. 501 northwest of Conway to Highway 17 in the Murrells Inlet area. The Corps has released three reasonable alternatives , all of which cross the Waccamaw River near the refuge’s property line. The Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge was founded in 1997
