With the Nov. 1 specialreferendum ballot aboutLoris Healthcare System’smerger with McLeodRegional Medical Centerjust around the corner, sup-porters of the merger areurging voters to vote infavor of the union.

In an effort to educate thevoters, the Citizens forBetter Healthcare Services(CBHCS) and their consult-ant, Wilson “Will” Brown,have held meetings in 47precincts in the Loris,Floyds, Green Sea, LittleRiver, Bayboro, andSimpson Creek areas.

“Voting is important andnecessary, and can be doneat the normal polling loca-tion in your area. Unless

you live in North MyrtleBeach, where an electionfor council members isalready scheduled forNovember 1, this will be aspecial election in yourprecinct. If that’s the case,the referendum will be theonly item on the ballot,”said John Boyd, one of threeco-chairmen of CBHCS.

“In such cases, peopleoften do not go out andvote. After all, everyone isbusy. But, when you givesome thought to the bene-fits of this referendum, theopportunity to enhance andexpand the healthcare serv-ices available in our com-munities, you will hopefullyagree with us that it’s defi-nitely worth the effort to getout and vote.

“This opportunity isurgent and important. And

your vote can make it areality. Please join us in vot-ing ‘YES’ on the HealthcareServices Referendum.”

As with all referendums,or special ballots, the com-munity needs to under-stand the importance of thevote and know what the‘yes’ vote will mean to thecommunity and the health-care service industry in thearea.

To help the voter under-stand the issues, the CBHCShas compiled a list of fre-quently asked questions.Contact the CBHCS by call-ing 756-0372 or by e-mail [email protected], or visit theirwebsite atwww.yesforhealthcareser-vices.com.

Horry County auditorLois Eargle had only metWilliam Blackmon briefly,but soon learned the GreenSea-Floyd’s middle schoolerknew his stuff, and wasinterested in politics. Earglequickly decided thatBlackmon was to be hernext choice in her program,Auditor for a Day.

The program allows inter-ested students to spend theday with Eargle, learningabout the treasurer’s office,what an auditor actuallydoes, the ins and outs of

property taxes and aboutcounty operations in gener-al.

But Blackmon’s educationdidn’t stop there. The youngBlackmon began the day at8 a.m. with Eargle who gavethe youngster a course onhow her office operates. Shethen took Blackmon to thetreasurer’s office and thenon to the solicitor’s office, toaddress Blackmon’s interestin the county legal system.

Blackmon was able to talkwith several attorneys andeven learned about a casethat involved another of hispassions, airplanes.

Blackmon met some pret-

ty important people on hisday as auditor, and got tospeak with Horry CountyAdministrator John Weaverand United States Sen. LukeRankin.

“Senator Rankin was avery nice man,” saidBlackmon. “He said that if Ireally want to do somethingto always do my best at it,and never give up on it.”

Blackmon toured thesheriff’s office, the criminalcourt rooms, the holdingareas, and smaller familycourtrooms. He met thecourtroom bailiffs and

Horry County auditor Lois Eargle, standing, took a backseatin her position last Wednesday as William Blackmon of Loriswas tapped by Eargle as “Auditor for a Day.” Blackmon, astudent at Green Sea-Floyds Middle School, spent the daywith Eargle, learning about her responsibilities and othercounty operations.

There is no better timeto have a raffle in down-town Loris than duringBog-Off festival whenmore than 30,000 peopleare in town. The Loris FireDepartment took advan-tage of the opportunity toset up shop on Main Streetand sell raffle tickets for achance at a 32-inch highdefinition television.

And sell they did, as LFDChief Jerry Hardee report-ed that the sales of $1 tick-ets were brisk early in theday with about 1,800 tick-ets sold. Hardee said theraffle proceeds are desig-nated for the department’spurchase of a specially-designed air compressorused to dispense breath-able air to refill the depart-ment’s Scott Air-Pacs. Suchan air compressor costsaround $32,000, but paysfor itself in savings, asopposed to individualtanks needing to berefilled.

“We want purchase thecompressor ourselves, andnot pull that amount outof our regular budget,”said Hardee. “We haveother pressing needs thatwill have to come out ofthe budget funds as thenew fire station nears

Q: What led Loris and Seacoast to this partnershipwith McLeod?

A: Loris and Seacoast seek to provide the best possiblehealthcare services to their patients. By partnering withMcLeod, they will gain access to more exceptional physi-cians and specialists, as well as leading-edge medical tech-nology. They chose McLeod as a partner, because McLeodis a national leader and has had a close working relation-ship with Loris and Seacoast for almost 15 years.

Q: What are the main benefits Loris and Seacoast willsee as a result of this partnership?

A: This partnership will provide better healthcare serv-ices for Loris and Seacoast and the communities theyserve. It will provide expanded and enhanced services thatinclude cardiology, orthopedic, oncology, and general sur-gery services. Loris and Seacoast patients will benefit fromeven more exceptional physicians and specialists, moreleading-edge medical technology, and additional patientservices that are available with a larger system. McLeodwill also provide staff development, training, and intro-duce quality and award winning programs and initiatives.Loris and Seacoast will retain a local governing board andlocal foundation, with continued involvement and leader-ship.

Q: Why do they need a referendum to make this part-nership happen – why can’t they just partner without avote?

A: As Loris and Seacoast are in a hospital public servicedistrict, a referendum is legally required to finalize thepartnership unless legislation is passed earlier. Becausethe legislative process has been delayed until the next leg-islative session, the referendum will allow the hospitals topartner sooner to achieve the many benefits of this part-nership which will also provide opportunities for contin-ued community involvement.

Q: Will Loris and Seacoast maintain a local voice inthe partnership with McLeod?

A: Yes, there will be collaboration and a continued voice.Loris and Seacoast will have representation on the McLeodBoard and will maintain the consultation of Loris andSeacoast local governing boards and local foundation. Astronger partnership with McLeod will enable enhancedand expanded healthcare services and provide greaterfinancial stability at Loris and Seacoast.

Q: How will this partnership affect employees at Lorisand Seacoast?

A: The partnership should benefit Loris and Seacoastemployees in several ways. In addition to working at hos-pitals with greater financial stability, they should alsohave greater opportunities for growth. They will have alarger pool of resources to draw from – medical informa-

tion, information systems, training, clinical expertise,physician recruitment, purchasing, and more. Both organ-izations will benefit from being stronger together and withgreater resources for greater growth opportunities.

Q: Will there be loss of jobs/ layoffs with this partner-ship or merger?

A: McLeod, Loris and Seacoast will work closely togeth-er to preserve jobs. With greater financial stability andexpanded resources, Loris and Seacoast should be able toprovide even greater opportunities for their currentemployees.

Q: Could this partnership affect healthcare costs?A: This partnership should provide greater efficiencies

and most importantly, better healthcare services. In addi-tion to pediatric specialties, the partnership will enhancespecialized care for transfers for Loris and Seacoast, prov-ing even more local care.

Q: Could this partnership affect taxes?A: No. Strengthening the partnership between Loris,

Seacoast and McLeod in order to provide better healthcareservices to the communities they serve should have noeffect on taxes.

Q: Why now? Is the timing significant?A: Timing is significant because the sooner Loris and

Seacoast strengthen their partnership with McLeod, thesooner the communities they serve can benefit fromenhanced healthcare services.

“Courageous” hits heart of nationwide issueSeldom do I express my

opinion on films thatmake it to the major

theaters and often for goodreason. Most films todayseem to lack substance andthe majority even a plot. Nomajor films try to giveanswers to the moraldecline in America, onlyadd to it. Until now.The recent release of the

film “Courageous” hits atthe heart of a plague in thiscountry that has beensteadily on the rise for morethat six decades. The father-less home or more on point,the lack of fathers as thespiritual leader in the home.

Without giving away toomuch of the details of thefilm its advertised plot tells

the storyof fourmen withone call-ing. Toserve andprotect.As lawenforce-ment offi-cers,AdamMitchell,NathanHayes,DavidThomson,andShane

Fuller are confident andfocused. Yet at the end ofthe day, they face a chal-lenge that none of them are

truly prepared to tackle.The challenge of father-hood. While they consis-tently give their best on thejob, good enough seems tobe all they can muster asdads. However, they’requickly discovering thattheir standard is missingthe mark. When tragedyhits home, these men areleft wrestling with theirhopes, their fears, theirfaith, and their fathering.Through a series of eventsand a newfound urgency,these dads begin to drawcloser to God and to theirchildren. They learn justwhat the Bible teachesabout the role of a fatherand his responsibilities inand out of the home.

The movie really hit homefor me, as I have been onboth sides of the proverbialcoin. I grew up in a father-less home and was one ofthose fathers who fell shortin being the spiritual leaderfor my children.The film also brought out

the point of absent fatherswho live in the home. Youknow the guy, the dad sobusy trying to make a livingthat he forgets to make alife. He misses his daugh-ter’s dance recital, his son’simportant game or that datenight with the wife. He is nodifferent from the missingfather as the pain felt by hisloved one’s is just the same.Today I enjoy my rela-

tionships with my daugh-

ters but is only because ofthe changes that God hasmade in my life and myunderstanding of my role asa father. However, themovie did show me where Istill fall short and that Imust be accountable, notonly to my children but mywife, my job, and in everyaspect of my life.So it doesn’t matter if you

are a young father juststarting out with your fami-ly or an old timer like methis movie is a must see.Not only will you appreciatethe lessons learned throughit but also you will leavewith a good feeling in yourheart and be uplifted by itscontent. That’s my kind ofmovie.

Some folks have cheesy attitudesIt wasn’t a good day for

the guy to be complain-ing about cheese.I’d talked with two dev-

astated, heartbroken peo-ple that morning who hadevery right to be complain-ing.One was a grandmother

waiting for medical testresults about her 11-year-old granddaughter.The other was a husband

who’d already gotten themabout his 58-year-old wife.They were both in the

“God, I’ll be a missionaryin Bangladesh if You justheal her” mode.It had been rough talking

to each of them. There’snothing anyone can say topeople in that situation. I know, because I’ve been

in similar ones severaltimes.All anyone can do is lis-

ten, remind them that mir-acles happen every day,and then pray for one tohappen for them, on that

day.And

when myhusbandand Iwent tolunchlater thatafter-noon,both peo-ple werestill onmy mind.Just as

they werewhensome guy

at the restaurant made amajor scene when he gotthe wrong cheese on hissandwich.He’d ordered mild ched-

dar and gotten Swiss, orhe’d ordered Swiss and got-ten sharp.I couldn’t hear the

details, but I heard himdemand to see the manag-er, refuse to pay for hisfood, and act as if life had

dealt him a terrible blow.Maybe it had, I thought.

Maybe he also got horren-dous news about a lovedone, and the cheese thingwas just his proverbial laststraw.But the two other people

I’d spoken to definitely feltsucker punched, and theywere humbled by it.I watched Cheesy Guy

wolf down his now free,properly cheesed sand-wich, looking like he wassuffering through everybite.I fantasized about walk-

ing over and delivering adefining moment speechabout priorities, butremembered the pearlsand swine thing, anddecided against it.And as sorry as I felt for

the two people with theseriously sick relatives, Ifelt even sorrier for CheeseGuy.I was pretty sure he’d

never get better.

You have to get into the boat firstWe all want the life

that God promisesus in His Word. We

know that it is ours to have.So why do so many of us failto receive the abundant lifeGod promises all those whobelieve in Him?One of the main reasons

is that we don’t take thatstep of complete faith, meetGod on the shore of life,step into the boat, and headout to the other side.Most of us, myself includ-

ed, have a tendency to wantto leave one foot on theshore, on solid ground, forfear of the unknown andfailure. It is our own humanweaknesses and the devil’sexploitation that rob us ofthe joy of living life to thefullest in God’s promises.So imagine what happens

when you put one foot inthe boat and leave one onthe shore. As my pastor soeloquently put it, the resultwould be a painful split,ending with you all wet andleft behind. While those who chose to

put both feet in the boatstart their journey withChrist, you are there on

shorewatchingas they sailto theother side.Withoutgetting inthe boatwe willneverexperiencethe lifeGod hasplannedfor us.In Luke

8, a num-ber ofanalogies

speak to us about what weare to do as believers afterHis Word, like a seed, isplanted in our lives. Theparable of the sower in vers-es 4-15 tell us to prepare ourhearts as fertile soil forGod’s Word to produce fruitin our lives. And moreimportantly, in the lives ofothers.The second parable

speaks about sharing thelight of the gospel with oth-ers.“Now no one after light-

ing a lamp covers it over

with a container, or puts itunder a bed; but he puts iton a lamp stand, so thatthose who come in may seethe light. For nothing is hid-den that will not becomeevident, nor anything secretthat will not be known andcome to light. So take carehow you listen; for whoeverhas, to him more shall begiven; and whoever doesnot have, even what hethinks he has shall be takenaway from him.”The next story brings in

an important stage in theChristian life, and the lessonto be learned from it.Despite their abiding faith

in Christ, even the disciplesfell prey to doubt as a stormbegan to toss their boatabout, while Jesus calmlyslept. Fear and anxiety rosein the very men who hadseen first hand the count-less miracles Jesus had per-formed. The disciples criedout to the sleeping Jesus,who awoke, calmed thestormy sea and questionedHis followers as to wheretheir faith in God had gone.God questions us the

same today when we face

the storms of life and quick-ly forget about Him and thepower He has over all ourcircumstances. Notice in thestory that the disciples didnot jump ship. They stayedin the boat and cried out toJesus.We will never get to where

we should be as Christiansby staying on shore orjumping out of the boatwhen things of this life tossour world about.Jesus came into this world

to change your life andmine, and gave us charge togo out in the world showour light to those who needHim. We cannot do whatChrist has called us to do, orfully experience the won-derful life God has plannedfor us if we do not stay inthe boat, shining our lighton a journey to the otherside. There is no middle

ground, no straddling of thefence, and no way to keepone foot on the shore with-out doing a “split” awayfrom the One Who will giveyou all you will ever need.Get in the boat, stay in

boat, and enjoy the journey.

Seek God whileHe may be foundBY KEN LEEFOR THE LORIS SCENE

Now for a long season Israel hath been without thetrue God, and without a teaching priest, and withoutlaw. (2 Chronicles 15:3)The nation of Israel had troubles: nations were

destroying nations and cities were destroying cities, forGod vexed the inhabitants of the land with adversity.So God sent a prophet to the King Asa of Israel, saying,

“The Lord is with you while ye be with Him; and if yeseek Him, He will be found of you; but if you forsakeHim, He will forsake you.” (2 Chronicles 15:2)Seeking God with our whole heart allows us to be

found, because we have given up our desire to performHis desire, and God is pleased with such a commitmentof love. The people of Israel entered this covenant to seek the

Lord. King Asa put away all the abominable idols andthe people brought offerings to God. May we put away any abominable idols and seek God

while He may be found with our whole heart. There aregreat vexations in our land, and it’s time to make acovenant with the Lord. After the people made a covenant to follow God, there

was peace, and the land had rest from war. Where therewas no law, God’s law now again prevailed over the peo-ple.

BY BRANDY GRAHAMFOR THE LORIS SCENE

The Loris Lions’ undefeat-ed season came to an endlast Friday night when theteam traveled to Dillon toface the number one teamin the state. Prior to the game with

Loris, the Wildcats hadallowed only nine points allseason. They defeated theirfirst eight opponents by aminimum of 34 points. Both teams entered Friday

night’s match-up with an 8-0 record. The Lions havehad a great season to date,allowing less than an aver-age of 10 points per game.Unfortunately, Dillon playsat a different level than mosthigh school teams. TheLions fell 57-0.Coach Jamie Snider knew

that the hype circulatingabout the Wildcats this sea-son was all true and worked

hard with his team to builda game plan. The Dillondefense is fast and theoffense is faster. “This does not mean that

we are not a good footballteam. It means that we havea lot of work to do,” saidSnider about the Lions’ firstloss of the season.The first year coach

believes that his teamshould walk away from thematch-up with Dillon withsome new motivation. “This game was a measur-

ing stick of where we have toget,” said Snider. The coach hopes that the

outcome of Friday night’sgame will motivate theunderclassmen on the teamto work even harder in theoff-season and in practicenext spring. “The one thing that we

can take away from this isthe importance of execu-tion,” said Snider.

The team will have anopportunity this Fridaynight to execute more effec-tively. The Lions will hostthe Aynor Blue Jackets forthe final regular seasongame of the year. “I am really looking for-

ward to playing at home. Wehave only had three homegames so far this season. Wehave done well on the road,”said Snider. The Blue Jackets have not

won in region play this sea-son but have led most oppo-nents going into the half.“This will be a tough

game for us. We will have toexecute better than we havein the last few weeks onoffense,” said Snider. Both teams will be in the

play-offs the following weekbecause of the new SouthCarolina High School leaguerules for AA. However, a winfor either team Friday nightwould improve their seed.
