The Kazoo Museum

The Kazoo Museum is een museum dat gewijd is aan de geschiedenis van de kazoo in de stad Beaufort, in de Amerikaanse staat South Carolina. Het museum bestaat uit een van de grootste verzamelingen van kazoos ter wereld. Het werd opgericht in 2007 in Seattle, Washington, en sinds 6 oktober 2010 bevindt het zich in Beaufort aan de andere kant van de VS. Het museum is gevestigd in de Kazoobie Kazoosfabriek en omvat een verzameling van kazoos, kazoomuziek en kazoo- memorabilia. Geschiedenis Kazoobie Kazoos Kazoobie Kazoos is een van de grootste leveranciers van kazoos ter wereld. Het werd opgericht door Rick Hubbard en Gayle Andrus in 1997 als een internetwinkel. De thuisbasis was voorheen Hilton Head Island en Florida, en in 2009 keerde het bedrijf terug naar South Carolina, naar de stad Beaufort, de woonplaats van medeoprichter Steven Murray. In deze stad groeide Kazoobie uit tot een magazijn met een showroom van 600 m². In 2010 kwam er nog een cadeauwinkel en het Kazoo Museum bij. Oprichting van het museum Een voorloper van het Kazoo Museum werd opgericht door de tv-persoonlijkheid en kazooliefhebber Boaz Frankel in 2007, in Seattle. Vanuit daar verhuisde de verzameling naar Portland, Oregon, in 2008, waar het niet kon worden bezichtigd, behalve op de website van het Kazoo Museum. De verzameling bestond op dat moment uit ongeveer 100 kazoos, inclusief een paar van de kazoos die als eerste werden gemaakt en verschillende memorabilia zoals boeken, patenten, bladmuziek en geluidsopnames. In 2010 was de verzameling uitgegroeid tot 200 items. Toen het museum werd uitgenodigd om zich in de Kazoobie Kazoosfabriek te vestigen, verhuisde het naar Beaufort en werd het officieel geopend voor publiek op 6 oktober 2010. De dag dat het Kazoo Museum in Kazoobie Kazoos werd geopend, werd er een lintje doorgeknipt. Het werd bijgewoond door inwoners van de stad, conservator Boaz Frankel en de eigenaren van Kazoobie Kazoos. Verzameling Museumbezoekers kunnen alles te weten komen over de geschiedenis van de kazoo, vanaf het moment dat het instrument werd uitgevonden in de jaren 1840 tot en met het hedendaagse museum, en kunnen een rondleiding krijgen door de fabriek om de moderne productietechnieken te zien. De verzameling van het museum bestaat uit bijna 200 items die met kazoos te maken te hebben, en hiermee is het de grootste privéverzameling kazoos ter wereld. Alle items worden achter glas bewaard in een gedeelte van de Kazoobie Kazoosfabriek. De verzameling bestaat onder andere uit een kazoo die werd gebruikt in een televisieprogramma The Partridge Family, kazoos in de vorm van beroemde stripfiguren, elektrische kazoos en kazoos van meer dan 100 jaar oud. Daarnaast is er in het museum een oude pers te zien die werd gebruikt om kazoo-onderdelen te maken, kazoobladmuziek en verscheidene memorabilia.

Shelter Cove Towne Centre

Shelter Cove Towne Centre, formerly The Mall at Shelter Cove, is a mixed-use lifestyle center located in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The center features two anchor stores, which include Belk and Kroger, a park, and two luxury apartment buildings. History The Mall at Shelter Cove The original mall opened in April 1988 under the development of Jim Wilson & Associates, with Jordan Marsh and Belk as its anchor stores. Over 60 inline tenants included Banana Republic, Victoria's Secret, Express, The Limited and four restaurants. In 1991, Jordan Marsh closed and JCPenney replaced it. JCPenney, in turn, closed in 1996, and a Saks Fifth Avenue store opened in the space on March 21, 1997. Saks converted the store to a Saks Off Fifth outlet in 2004, and that store too would later move out of Shelter Cove. Although Belk expanded its store in 2007, Mall at Shelter Cove lost many major tenants throughout the 2000s. Stores like Crabtree & Evelyn, Brooks Brothers, PacSun, Waldenbooks, Ann Taylor, and Williams Sonoma were all lost by the end of the decade. In 2008, representatives of then-owner Petrie Ross announced plans to add a movie theater, but this was canceled because the company could not secure money to build one. Off Fifth relocated to the Tanger Factory Outlet Centers in nearby Bluffton in February 2011. Shortly afterward, supermarket chain Kroger bought the mall. In early 2012 it was reported that the mall would be demolished (excluding the Belk stores) and turned into a community park development with a Kroger grocery store. New development The Mall at Shelter Cove closed January 2013, with demolition beginning on the 13th. Construction began soon afterward, redeveloping the mall into an outdoor lifestyle center. The new center features 290,000 square feet (27,000 m2) of retail space along with a five-acre park. In December 2013, Kroger opened their location in the center, adding the second anchor store. Soon after, additional tenants such as JoS. A. Bank, Orange Leaf, and AT&T added locations in the center. In March 2015, construction began on WaterWalk at Shelter Cove, two apartment buildings along Broad Creek. The two apartment buildings were originally scheduled to be completed in 2016 and include over 200 apartments and a five-story parking garage. In February 2017, it was announced that site work for the first of two luxury apartment buildings was nearing completion. The first houses 136 apartments and the second holds 104 units. In May 2017, the first of the two buildings opened. The second is scheduled to open by the end of 2018 into early 2019 as construction nears completion. References External links Official website

Thomas Rose House

The Thomas Rose House is a National Register property located at 59 Church St. in Charleston, South Carolina. The 2+1⁄2-story stuccoed brick house was probably built by planter Thomas Rose in 1733. Thomas Rose House was built on a lot granted through the King's Lords Proprietor to Elizabeth Willis in 1680 — "one of the few grants given to a woman." Thomas Rose constructed the house on the original Charles Town Lot no. 61, inherited by his wife, Beuler Elliott, replacing an earlier dwelling. The house has excellent examples of original Georgian woodwork in the paneling, staircase, and elsewhere. In the twentieth century an owner razed a neighboring house on the adjoining lot to the south to accommodate a large garden. As of 2025, it remains privately owned.

Woodrow Wilson Boyhood Home (Columbia, South Carolina)

The Woodrow Wilson Family Home is located in Columbia, South Carolina and was one of the childhood homes of the 28th President Woodrow Wilson. He lived in the house from 1871 to 1875. In 1967, Historic Columbia purchased the house. Renovation occurred in 2013 and the house was re-opened to the public in 2014. At that time the house museum was re-dedicated to focusing on the Reconstruction Era. In order to better represent the change, Historic Columbia changed the name of the site to the Museum of the Reconstruction Era at the Woodrow Wilson Home in 2020. History The house, completed by late 1871, was the only one that Woodrow Wilson's parents would ever own. They lived there for four years, before Wilson's father resigned his position as pastor. A grassroots movement in 1928 preserved the home and prevented its scheduled demolition. It opened to the public as a museum in 1932. The house is furnished with period pieces from the 1850s–1870s, although only a few were owned by the Wilson family. They include, although he was not born in the house, the bed on which Wilson was born. Stewardship of the site shifted to Historic Columbia in 1967. The revised interpretation of the site debuted in February 2014. Modern times As the Woodrow Wilson Family Home In October 2005, the home closed to tours in preparation for a complete renovation of the structure and landscaping. In April 2009 the first of three phases of renovation began, starting with structural repairs. Phase two, which included a new building on the property, electrical upgrades and minor carpentry work, was completed in late 2012. The new building, located in an area where previous support buildings stood in the past, includes bathrooms, a catering kitchen and mechanical and electrical rooms to offer the ability to host events at the home. The renovation was completed in 2013, with re-opening to the public planned for 2014. Today, the house interprets the Reconstruction period—as experienced by the Wilsons and other citizens of Columbia and Richland County—as South Carolina and the rest of the nation shifted socially, politically and economically to adjust to new freedoms for previously enslaved men and women following the Civil War. Their experiences are the basis for modern interpretation of citizenship in the United States. Name change In 2020, Historic Columbia renamed the site the Museum of the Reconstruction Era at the Woodrow Wilson Home. A member of Historic Columbia stated the name change better represented the experience visitors have at the house. The museum is one of the only museums in the country dedicated to the reconstruction era.

Iglesia y Cementerio Episcopal de la Trinidad

La Iglesia y Cementerio Episcopal de la Trinidad son una iglesia y cementerio histórico ubicado sobre Church Street en Abbeville, Carolina del Sur.​​ Historia La Iglesia Episcopal de la Trinidad es un ejemplo de arquitectura neogótica. El obispo Thomas F. Davis consagró el edificio en 1860, construido según los planos de George E. Walker, arquitecto de Columbia. Las paredes sólidas tienen más de dos pies de espesor y están construidas con ladrillos.

Tuckahoe Bay

Tuckahoe Bay is located in Horry County, South Carolina, in the Nixonville Quadrangle of South Carolina. It is a Carolina bay, which is similar to a swamp with an oval shape. The bay is next to the Covington Lake and Waterford Plantation neighborhoods in Carolina Forest, a suburb of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. It is noted that the flora in the bay is noticeably shorter than that of the surrounding area. This is due to the difference in soil type. Tuckahoe Bay has a Jo soil type, also known as a Johnston Loam. History The name 'Tuckahoe' is a Native-American word that associates itself with edible plants. The name 'Tuckahoe Bay' has an unknown origin, probably a name from a resident in Horry County. The first map to use the term was platted in October 1845 by Cornelius B. Sarvis. The plat included Socastee Swamp and totaled an area of 5,760. Tuckahoe Bay has been on several topography maps, including some dating back to 1938. An early aerial map taken by the Ocean Forest Company in the early 1930s shows what Carolina bays looked like and also shows Tuckahoe Bay when it was undisturbed. Even as current development is abundant around the area, the bay has remained untouched. Recent developments Two recent developments have changed the natural setting of Tuckahoe Bay, the building of a power line through the middle of the bay and the Carolina Forest development. Conway Bombing Range In the 1940s, the area now known as Carolina Forest was used as a practice bombing range. Although Tuckahoe Bay was undisturbed, other Carolina bays around the area were, including Briery Bay which is located east of the Plantation Lakes neighborhood. Santee Cooper Power Line Santee Cooper is the local power company for the Myrtle Beach area. A long transmitter line was built before Tuckahoe Bay was preserved under law. If you can see aerial views of the area, the power line's location through the bay is noticeable. Carolina Forest The Carolina Forest development has changed the surroundings of Tuckahoe Bay. Covington Lake was built to the southwest of the bay and Waterford Plantation was built to the northwest. Each neighborhood was established in 1996 and continues to grow. A 2-acre (8,100 m2) site is located buffering the bay which includes wetland area and buffer areas for the preservation of the wetlands. A 15-foot (4.6 m) easement was also set in place along Covington Lake's border with Tuckahoe Bay. References
University of South Carolina Lancaster

The University of South Carolina Lancaster (USCL or USC Lancaster) is a public college in Lancaster, South Carolina. It is one of the four regional campuses which make up Palmetto College in the University of South Carolina System. It is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges and offers associate degrees and bachelor's degrees. As of 2017, more than 1,900 students attended the college at its campus in the Piedmont region of South Carolina. USC Lancaster is governed by the University of South Carolina Board of Trustees. The campus has four local affiliate groups: the Lancaster County Commission for Higher Education, the Educational Foundation of USC Lancaster, the USC Lancaster Board of Visitors, and the Town Gown Advisory Council. History The University of South Carolina conducted a program in the 1950s to expand its reach across the state of South Carolina. Simultaneously, the Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce identified a goal of establishing a college in the county. Chamber members presented their idea to the administration of the university, and within approximately one year the University of South Carolina Lancaster Extension Center opened with 51 students. Four other extension campuses were established. The campus in Lancaster is the center of a six-county region (Chester, Chesterfield, Fairfield, Lancaster, Kershaw, and York) in the north central piedmont of South Carolina. The college began holding classes in the Williams House in downtown Lancaster in September 1959, but by the mid-1960s growth forced it to find a larger facility. With the support of the local community, the college moved to a tract of land on the northern limits of the City of Lancaster. Ten buildings currently serve as the campus for the college including the downtown Lancaster Native American Studies Center established in October 2012 and an Indian Land Location established in August 2018. Academics USC Lancaster offers four associate degree programs (arts, sciences, business, and criminal justice) and three baccalaureate degree programs. Through Palmetto College and the entire USC system, an additional 24 online degree completion programs are offered including business, elementary education, public health, criminal justice, and hospitality. Athletics USC Lancaster's athletic program is known as the Lancers, and their four teams compete in Region X of the NJCAA. The Lancers sponsor women's soccer (inaugural season in 2007), women's volleyball, baseball (inaugural season in 2008), and men's soccer.
