From the Myrtle Beach Restaurant News -

"Dan and Tina Malfroid have leased their current Burger Brothers restaurant to Alan and Kellie Shulver, who are turning the spot at 1518 4th Ave. in Conway into Burger Brothers Express. When the transition is complete, the plan is for the express location to serve burgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, fries and ice cream in five minutes or less, and will specialize in carry-out and drive-through service.

The Ultimate Gullah store located at 900 3rd Ave. has announced their Tales N' Uddah T'ings Film Series starting this month.

The latest issue of Grand Strand Magazine has a great piece on Downtown Conway, SC.   I appreciate how they spoke with and featured some of the business that are typically overlooked by visitors.  Of course they missed a few gems as well, but they could not be expected to show all of the great stuff we have to offer.

From GoBlueHose.com:

"CLINTON, S.C. - The Presbyterian College Athletic Department and head football coach Harold Nichols announced today the hiring of Drew Watson as Defensive Coordinator."

Conway SC resident Steven Murdock, 39, was featured in a recent Washington Post article.  We almost missed it, and thought that some of you may have too.
