Welcome Spring 2010!

Plenty of events planned for the Spring!  Earth Day not until next Saturday–gearing up is Market Commons pictured above.  Check out the events on www.MyrtleBeachonline.com or www.NorthMyrtleBeachonline.com

The streets are buzzin–the fresh markets are open.  The antique car show, cheerleaders competition and golfers are here as well as Spring, 2010!  Walk-ins and Buyers are here as well.    Most seem to be wanting the Foreclosure List–above for current list; however, it’s a buyers’ market–good buys everywhere.  The tax credit has been extended through April.  A good thing to take advantage of if you can.   Rules in article below.

We’re looking forward to a robust spring with tourist and buyers wanting to escape from the cold harsh winter 2009/2010.  A winter we won’t forget!  And as we always say, “Come See! Come Live!”

Heart of Myrtle Beach blank canvas awaits unknown artist???

Our recent mayoral election brought out some compelling comments and views on the future of Myrtle Beach.  I particularly like this one by Bo Bryan on the heart of Myrtle Beach’s future  is a blank canvas for an unknown artist.  Maybe you could be the next visionary for a family oriented tourist/second home town!   Read all about it……..

By the way, John Rhodes was elected Mayor and he has been in the hospitality/tourism  business since I moved to Myrtle Beach in 1972.  We worked together at the Myrtle Beach Hilton where he was the director of sales–bringing people from across the county to a place we love–Myrtle Beach!   I wrote an article on Myrtle Beach’s birthday and Mayor John Rhodes under www.LetscelebrateSouthCarolina.com.  You may need to look in archives around the first of the year–at bottom.
