CELEBRATE and REMEMBER
The Inspiration Behind Pawleys Island’s
New Celebration Park
By Leah Speer
A Pawleys Island park to celebrate and
remember those we've loved and lost,
J.B.'s Celebration Park will be home to
laughter, love, and solace for the families
of the community to celebrate the joy of
life and the memory of those they've lost.
Jim Bindner, a very generous man who
Jim Bindner loved to gather with family and friends,
dreamed of creating a community park in Pawleys Island, South
Carolina. His vision was of a bright and happy place where the
community could go to reflect on their loved ones that have passed
before them. A beautiful, soothing environment to gather with those
you love to enjoy music, art, culture and sunshine.
After Jim lost his father a little over a decade ago, he realized this
park could alleviate the sadness felt in the community due to pain felt
in losing someone too soon, as well as the very young lives lost due to
suicide and overdose. The last few years brought many losses to our
small community and this sparked a fire in Jim, motivating him to turn
this dream of a community park into a reality.
Sadly, while working diligently towards this goal, Jim became ill and
in January 2019, he died at the age of 60. Jim left behind a wife, Dr.
Cindy Bindner and two daughters who are carrying on his legacy to
bring his dream to life.
This rendering is a conceptual
drawing only and may be
subject to change.
J.B.'s Celebration Park will have two
cohesive concepts. First, a central gathering place
for a variety of events including live music,
art exhibitions, outdoor movie nights,
symposiums, and wine tastings. The second, a Memorial
Walk to honor loved ones we've lost in our area. The
Memorial Walk trail will include benches, flowers and
trees from people who want to donate in honor of
someone they may have lost.
The park will also host activities such as after-school
programs and host festivals, hopefully including the Crawfish Festival
which Jim had been greatly involved with in its heyday years ago.
Dr. Bindner hopes that one day there will even be an amphitheater
built for live performances.
J.B.'s Celebration Park was founded on January 31, 2019 and is
currently in the implementation phase. In September, the Georgetown
County Council gave the final approval for Dr. Bindner to lease the
property of 7.5 acres across from Waccamaw Middle School for 30
years at a rate of $1 per year.
The park will be fully funded by private donations and grants. If you’d
like to make a contribution today, please go to: jbscelebrationpark.org.
Beautification & Progress
THE HIGHWAY 17 CORRIDOR STUDY
By Leah Speer
Imagine it! Outdoor dining, ambient lighting, public art, wide sidewalks,
streets lined with trees…and these are just some of the ideas for
creating a transformative vision for the Waccamaw Neck!
The Highway 17 Corridor Study is charting a new future for US 17.
The study area begins at the intersection of US 17 and US 17 Bypass in
Murrells Inlet (near Georgetown/Horry County Line) and continues
south for 19 miles to Hobcaw Barony.
Georgetown County and the Grand Strand Transportation Study (GSATS)
say this project is unlike anything they’ve ever done before. A hot topic in
this study are parks and open spaces, which includes the possibility of a
downtown Pawleys Island that would allow developers to create a town
atmosphere where residents have walkable dining and shopping options.
The study addresses aesthetics, geometric design, streetscapes, signage,
bicycle facilities, off-road greenways, pedestrian crosswalks, signals and
sidewalks, and architectural character and scale.
There is also consideration of roundabouts with plantings. Currently,
lighting is directed to the street, which makes night driving easier but leaves
walkways dark. New lighting fixtures will also illuminate the sidewalks and
the bike path.

SCENE
The community has been energized and engaged in developing the
direction of this new plan, which boasts a vision to enhance the physical
appearance of this corridor with the focus on positive economic development
and the quality of life currently enjoyed here. Planning is still underway.
For more information on the Highway 17 Corridor Study, contact
the Georgetown County Planning Department at (843) 545-3158.
Visitors to the study were asked “If I had a magic wand, the ONE
thing I would change about the corridor today would be…” and
answers were insightful. Answers from locals included changing the
heavy traffic, bike paths, pedestrian sidewalks and crosswalks, offering
affordable housing to those who work in the area and keeping it green.

Sustainability & Nature a Virtue at
WACCAMAW NECK BRANCH LIBRARY’S
“BIG BACKYARD”
By Leah Speer
The utter bliss of an opened book in hand while relaxing in a
comfortable spot outdoors is a feeling many of us covet.
With a focus on sustainability, the Friends of the Waccamaw
Library (FOWL) have been a driving force behind the conception,
planning, and execution of “Our Big Backyard” at Waccamaw Neck
Branch Library (WNBL), creating another a peaceful stimulating
locale for community. Thanks to major community support, a
sub-committee of the FOWL Board of Directors have teamed up
with Waccamaw Landscaping to develop a plan and oversee the
creation of this beautiful outdoor space. The sub-committee
is made up of Chairperson, Jane Barry, along with
committee members Deb Thomas, and Sue Parker.
The best libraries don’t stop with what’s inside.
Libraries are a treasure trove of knowledge and with
brilliant design and thoughtful planning, they can be
so much more. That’s exactly what you get at “Our
Big Backyard” at WNBL. Their goal of expanding
the indoors to the outdoors while fostering
community, is coming to fruition. Indeed, since our
area enjoys such pleasant weather, it seems essential to
have an outdoor space to host our community.
The benefits of exposure to nature are much more than aesthetic.
Research shows that for people, it is related to stress reduction,
improved memory, improved physical and mental health. In
fact, public outdoor spaces not only aid the environment, but
it also boosts the sense of community.
In the construction phase at the writing of this article, the
backyard will be a fenced-in multisensory outdoor learning
environment that is beautiful and inspiring. Facing the yard,
to the right, you will find a designated quiet area with a gazebo
shading a table and chairs as its centerpiece. To the left, there are
two benches framing Henry’s Garden, leading to the area
FOWL
designed for children. There you will see Library Children's
Librarian, Amy King, hosting projects and fun activities.
There is a lovely pond with a fountain filled with carp. In fact,
it was a key goal to fill this yard with components indigenous to
the Pawleys Island area. “Waccamaw Landscaping was excellent
to work with,” said Diane Stern, President of FOWL. “We could
not have designed it this well without their expertise.”
The Board had a fundraiser to raise money for this project.
Numerous donations were appreciated and went to help purchase
the rocking chairs, benches, tables, the gazebo, etc. Striving
not only to serve as a place of learning and community
celebration, WNBL strives to provide a sustainable area
boasting lovely and natural experiences with endless
opportunities to strengthen our community.

IN MEMORY OF LOST LEADERS
The memory of a good person is a blessing. Proverbs 10:7
Russell Campbell, Sr.
(1936 – 2016)
Russ was born and raised in SC and graduated
from Clemson University. He established himself
as a leader quickly. He was elected President of
the Numeral Society, Clemson’s first fraternity.
Then he won The Peace Scholarship, and that
led to a job as a young reporter for The Greenville
News. In the mid-60s he left journalism to become
the Publicity Director for NASCAR. And then,
in cahoots with a couple of college buddies, he
founded a successful architectural firm in
Charleston, SC.
If space was no object it would be easy to
continue listing Campbell’s leadership successes.
From Planning and Development Director on
Seabrook Island to General Manager for large
planned communities in Arizona and Tennessee,
his resume is diverse and distinct.
Appointed CEO of the Litchfield Company,
Russ hit the Pawleys Island scene in the late
80s. It was a stroke of luck for the Waccamaw
Neck. During his tenure, Russ steered the company
through the death of Foster McKissick, a company
founder. And, in so many ways, he set the stage
for a new era of phenomenal growth.
Ultimately, Russ formed a partnership with
George Taylor, and was an integral part of the
Development team for the TPC (Tournament
Players Club) Golf Course and the sprawling
Prince Creek Community in Murrells Inlet, SC.
And then he spearheaded Planning and
Development for SGA Architecture. His younger
colleagues were grateful for every shared morsel
of his knowledge and well-earned wisdom.
Campbell’s professional accomplishments only
scratch the surface of his character. He was a
Rotarian for more than forty years, founder of
the Palmetto Touchdown Club, a member of
Clemson Tillman Society, one of the founders
and leaders of the Georgetown Economic
Development Alliance, and one of the founders
of the Clemson Advancement Board of Real
Estate and Development. He was a Senior Warden
in several Anglican churches, a past president of
the Charleston Symphony Orchestra Association,
a board member in several Chambers of Commerce,
founding chairman of St. Christopher’s Children
and on the board of HeartReach, Inc., as well
as other organizations and boards.
Business partner and colleague Steve Goggans
said: “His resume tells only a small part of the
Russ Campbell’s story … He was a great
communicator. In his role as a developer and a
community leader, he often faced questioning,
even angry crowds, yet Russ could dispassionately
break down the arguments, defuse hostility, and
totally disarm a crowd by gently offering logic,
empathy, and creative solutions. Russ was a
problem solver.”
If the capacity of Mr. Campbell’s mind could
be outdone, it would be outdone by the capacity
of his great heart. He gave money, time and
personal commitment to an array of individuals
and organizations. He cared deeply for people,
and he never shied from offering his help. No
one will deny he was a leader among men.
George Dodson Taylor
(1943 – 2019)
George Dodson Taylor’s career is marked by
prosperous real estate development from the
coast of SC stretching west and north to the
Pacific Rim. His relevant skill set covered the
gamut from large scale land and resort community
development to club and residential building
products. He combined personal vision with
creative real estate financing to blow the top off
projected goals. He moved confidently, and he
moved fast. One of his favorite quotes was
“Time kills deals!”

LOWCOUNTRY
11
PEOPLE
George graduated from North Augusta High
in 1961. From there he graduated from Clemson
University with a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical
Engineering in 1965. He then settled into seven
years as a Mechanical Engineer with DuPont.
He then switched gears and stepped into a career
that would become his life’s legacy. In 1973, he
began working with Sea Pines Plantation in Hilton
Head Island, SC. The rest is sweet history.
At Sea Pines, Taylor acquired a knack for
developing master planned communities with
diverse amenities. He climbed all the requisite
ladders and distinguished himself time and again
– on Hilton Head, Daufuskie, Harbor, Melrose,
Fripp and Kiawah Islands, Ocean Creek and
Kingston Plantation in Myrtle Beach and
ultimately Debordieu Colony in Georgetown,
Litchfield By The Sea, Inlet Point South, The
Peninsula, The Reserve, The Reserve Golf
Club, Reserve Harbor Marina in Pawleys
Island, SC; and Prince Creek in Murrells Inlet,
SC. He landed solidly at The Litchfield
Company. His score sheet is as impressive as it
is long. And this list doesn’t even include his
non-profit affiliations.
Royce King, current President, CEO and
Executive Director , was hired by George in
1994. Mr. King had this to say: “People should
remember George was an engineer by trade. He
could think about the minutia from different
sides. His ability to do that made him an artist
of sorts. He could envision the dream, analyze a
contract and then tell you how to run the sewer
pipes … he was a true leader … he had vision.“
Known for his vision and spirit of collaboration,
he excelled in attracting talent to work
with him. One agent said: “He was a pleasure
to work with, and he had a magnetic personality
that made you want to get to know him and
deliver your best work. On a personal level, he
was a model gentleman, mentor and a great friend.”
Douglas Gray “Mike” Mahon III
(1943 –2018)
It was apparent pretty early in his life that
Mike Mahon was going to do great things. In
1961, he graduated from Richmond Academy
in Augusta, Georgia where he played baseball,
basketball and participated in ROTC. As a
senior, he was voted Most Likely to Succeed.
Afterward he headed to Clemson and became
a member of the Kappa Delta Chi fraternity
where he made many life?long friends. Mike
embraced an unlikely double major in economics
and English Literature, and he was a member
of the school’s first honors program. Not
surprisingly, he graduated in 1965 with top
Departmental Honors in Economics and also
won the Furman English Award. Not one to
settle, Mike then moved to Atlanta and worked
with AT&T for three years, at which time he
attended Georgia State and earned his master’s
degree in Real Estate.
In 1969, Mike accepted a job with Sea Pines
Company on Hilton Head Island: Initially, he
was in charge of home and villa rentals and was
later named Vice President of Development.
Four short years later in 1973, he left Sea Pines
to open his own real estate consulting company,
Development Management, Inc., which later
became The Mahon Company.
Mike’s deep understanding of real estate served
him and his teammates well on numerous wellknown
projects, including Harbour Town Villas;
Skull Creek Marina, Hilton Head Plantation
and Table Rock Golf Community. In 1991, he
was offered a consulting job with The Litchfield
Company. And the die was cast. He was eventually
named president and became a cornerstone
of the Company.
A few of the major developments Mike worked
on in Litchfield included condominiums at
Litchfield By the Sea, Inlet Point South and the
Peninsula. One of his favorite projects was the
development of The Reserve Golf Club and
course, which he worked to create with Greg
Norman. Over the years, in every town he lived
in, Mike was very involved in his church and
the surrounding communities, including St.
Paul's Waccamaw United Methodist Church in
Litchfield Beach. That’s not a surprising detail
since his colleagues talk about his honesty and
integrity as often as they talk about his leadership
skills. One of the Company’s executives
said: “He always took the high road, even if it
wasn’t the most profitable one.”
Jim Bindner
(1958 - 2019)
Jim Bindner wore many hats and wore them
all well. Deeply creative, he was a chef, artist,
fisherman, musician, businessman and entrepreneur.
He was also a husband, father, brother, uncle,
and best friend. Sometimes it seemed as if Jim
moved at the speed of light, jumping nimbly from
one task to another. Friends have said he is
remembered both for his vision and his genuine
concern for the people whose lives touched his
own. That was clearly a recipe for success as he
became number one in sales for The Litchfield
Company.
“In many ways, Jim became the face of the
Company,” said Royce King. “He was always on
the go and always seeking out ways to help people.
He made people feel listened to and understood.”
Some things best remembered include Jim
feeding the town out of his restaurant, The Gray
Man, during Hurricane Hugo and entertaining
folks at his subsequent fine dining restaurant,
Ivory’s. He became ordained so he could marry
his friends. He made time for his family and his
acquaintances. He never stopped moving.
His obituary said it best: “Nothing meant more
to him than making the lives of those around
him a little bit better. He made all of our lives
better just by being here. You fished with us,
cooked with us, laughed with us (and at us),
and brought out the best in us. You lived life
exuberantly and taught us to do the same.
Everything and everyone you touched will forever
carry your unadulterated joy and optimism
for the world. Wherever you are now, playing
the saxophone and dancing with the contagious
energy you never could quite contain, may
peace be with you.”
A legacy of Jim’s that is taking shape is called
Celebration Park. (See the article on page 6)
He was working on the project when he passed
away and his wife, his daughters and friends
have picked up the torch.

CARING FOR

THE COMMUNITY
CHAMPION AUTISM NETWORK
By Kimberly Duncan
#YESYOUCAN • #COMEPLAYWITHUS
Autism numbers are increasing at an alarming rate. According
to the CDC in 2018, one in 59 individuals has autism. For those
struggling with the disorder the ramifications are significant.
The average cost for therapies and services for a person affected
by autism is more than $60,000 per year. The annual cost to
society is more than $265 billion. If autism's prevalence continues
costs will likely top $1 trillion by 2025.
Champion Autism Network (CAN) is hard at work to raise
autism awareness, promote acceptance and hold sensory/autism
friendly events for those of us on the Grand Strand. They’ve made
impressive strides, but there’s a long way to go.
In 2012, CAN was founded by Becky Large, a business woman
and mother of a child on the Autism spectrum. In 2016, she
worked with Surfside Beach officials to name Surfside the world’s
first “Autism Friendly Travel Destination.” Horry County and
the city of Myrtle Beach followed suit in late 2018. Now in
twelve travel destinations around the nation, and more to come,
the future is looking brighter for their families.
People with autism become overwhelmed by lights, sounds,
smells and crowds. An autistic person may have a tantrum or
meltdown to communicate their discomfort. As a result, many
families opt to stay home.
In brief, CAN seeks to educate businesses, hotels, restaurants,
public venues and the general population about autism and help
them understand and accommodate those with autism, as well
as their families. Whether it’s a restaurant meal, a movie, or a
vacation, CAN aims to get the entire family out of the house
in a supported environment.
They also have an innovative “CAN card” program for member
families.These cards can be used at participating businesses.
These participating businesses are
educated and when presented with
the card know where to seat these
families and how to treat them. It’s
a way for a family dealing with autism
to quietly and easily identify themselves
at participating businesses. And there’s
benefit for participating businesses, too. Autism families are loyal.
Once a family has had a successful visit with a business, it can
bet they will be back, and families will tell their friends about
the experience, too.
Learn more about autism and how you can help. A business
can participate in the CAN card program, become CAN
Certified or sponsor an event. Learn more at:
www.ChampionAutismNetwork.com. You’ll be inspired and
CAN will be grateful.
Much More Than a Ride
By Kimberly Duncan
Too often, we turn a blind eye to the needs of our aging
population. Our region has the second fastest growing
population in the entire country, and a majority of them are
retirees or close to it. Many have aged to a point that leaves
them unable to drive themselves or their loved ones.
Thankfully, this is where Neighbor to Neighbor (N2N) steps
in to offer transportation. And also to take part in quality of
life experiences such as grocery shopping, the bank, senior
centers, the beauty salon, medical appointments and more.
RIDES is an acronym for Respect, Integrity, Dignity, Excellence,
and Service to Society. It’s amazing to see the change in the
people who need this service so much. Many, if not most, are
not financially equipped to use other modes of transportation,
and our public transportation system is extremely limited.
Many older folks live extremely lonely lives. So N2N is more
than a ride; it is a circle of support for those who need it
most. The mission is to promote independence, relieve isolation
and connect homebound adults to their communities.
N2N was chosen as an Angel Nonprofit by the Secretary of
State in 2019. Since the organization launched in 2005, N2N
has provided more than 45,000 rides to well over one thousand
seniors. It takes dedicated, big-hearted volunteers to maintain
that pace – and the need continues to grow every single day.
But it takes money, too. Last year the organization allocated
86.6% of its expenditures to its program services. “When we
say the program, we are referring to matching money to meet
salaries, pay for necessary insurance, keep the phones manned,
insuring the rent is paid and doing background checks on volunteers
…annually, it costs the agency over $200,000 to keep the
doors open,” said Joe Kunkel, Executive Director. Dedicated
volunteers are a big part of the reason a high percentage of
funds are directed into the program.
N2N answers very real needs – needs for transportation
and friendships. Funding and volunteers are the only real way
to make this program go. Call 843.260.8358 or visit
https://riden2n.org/ for lots of additional information about
this very worthwhile cause.

WHITMIRE
Treasuress of the Sea Collection
As a resident of Pawleys Island, John Henry Whitmire's Treasures of the
Sea Collection was inspired by the breathtaking beaches he calls home.
Starting his collection in 1975 with the Sand Dollar Pendant, he has
since expanded the assortments to offer a large variety of shells and sea
creatures that represent what we all love about going to the beach – the
sun, sand and sea life. Every piece within the Treasures of the Sea
Collection is delicately designed and custom handcrafted into sterling silver jewelry. The collection has been an area favorite along
South Carolina's Grand Strand for years, with collectors spanning all 50 states and more than 20 foreign countries. Hopefully it will
be in your collection soon!

Libraries
Love of reading has been an essential part of
Georgetown County since Plantation owners and
the Winyah Indigo Society compiled extensive
libraries more than 100 years ago. In 1908, the
Society offered its handsome building for use as
a subscription library that eventually became
the Georgetown Public Library.
The Georgetown County Public Library
System has four locations. Service from library
headquarters in Georgetown is extended to the
entire county through regular visits of a modern
bookmobile. In 2007, the Georgetown County
Public Library System became the first institution
in South Carolina to receive a national medal
for community service provided by museums
and libraries. This award was presented in the
White House in Washington, D.C.
Friends of the Georgetown County Library
actively support the library system, which
reflects the continuing growth of the community’s
awareness of the library services’ value.
To receive a library card, applicants must complete
a registration card and present proper identification
showing the applicant’s name and local address.
