By Skyler Baldwin | One Region, a partnership of regional government and business groups, has released a survey aimed at further understanding the needs of the residents and businesses in Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester counties, along with input on what opportunities leaders should pursue.
“One Region is going straight to the source to hear from the Berkeley-Charleston Dorchester community, so we can build on the lessons learned from COVID-19 and anticipate potential threats to our region’s economy,” said One Region chair Kendra Stewart. She is also director of the Joseph P. Riley Jr. Center for Livable Communities at the College of Charleston.
By Andy Brack, editor and publisher: Now that the fireworks and festivities from the Fourth of July are a new memory, how about taking a bolder, more reflective step to celebrate the true spirit of America? Find a quiet spot and seriously consider the 1,339 words of our country’s declaration against tyranny, our Declaration of Independence. Better yet: Sit down as a family and read it out loud together.
BIG CHECK. Representatives from Jersey Mike’s Subs in the Charleston area presented a $250,000 check to MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital on June 23 for money raised during the company’s 11th annual Day of Giving in March. Photo provided.
PLUS: Changes expected to state public school charter law
