Neighbors said that the home is sometimes occupied by renters but that no one was renting the home at the time of the fire. Witnesses observed that firefighters arrived at the home shortly before 6 p.m. Deputy Chief Mark Davis held a short press conference at the scene at approximately 6:45 p.m. and said that the fire was under control.

Charleston Fire Departments responded to and were battling the fire. Deniz Evin, a neighbor living across the street from the Smalley home, said that shortly after he arrived home from work on Friday afternoon his whole house lit up from a lightning bolt and that the smoke detectors in his home started going off. About 25 minutes later he saw smoke coming from the attic and gushing out the vent of his neighbor’s home.

A Charleston Fire Department Facebook post noted, “Multiple calls were received in the area following a storm and reported lightning strikes. Fire crews were investigating an adjacent area following a reported odor of smoke when they observed the fire on Barfield Street.” The fire broke out during violent weather with numerous lightning strikes being reported. Rob Fowler of Channel 2 Storm Tracker said via social media that 272 lightning strikes were recorded over Daniel Island shortly before the fire broke out on Barfield Street. After completing an investigation on August 22, the Fire Department addressed the cause via social media, “Fire Investigators worked into the evening and the following day to review the scene. Interviews confirmed significant lightning activity around the area and significant lightning strikes several minutes prior to the fire. Investigators gained access to the structure the following day and reviewed fire damage to the building. The fire originated within a wall cavity and spread into the attic space. The home was unoccupied and the fire burned unchecked until smoke and fire were visible from the roof. The cause of the fire is likely related to the lightning strike that occurred in close proximity to the home.” suzanne detar suzanne detar Fellow firefighters and paramedics assist a N. Charleston firefighter from the home. Neighbor Bill Powers said that the house was engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived. Powers, who lives across the street from the Smalley home said, “The heat on our front porch was unbelievable.” A video of the fire recorded by Powers can be viewed at https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=a7gy13ul7Ew&feature=em-upload_ owner and a shortened version is available on the Daniel Island News Facebook page.

The Charleston Fire Department confirmed that the roof area/attic was well engulfed in fire upon the arrival of firefighters. During the course of battling the fire, firefighters rested on neighboring lawns and porches. A crowd of residents watched as the blaze was brought under control. Several neighbors provided water and ice cold rags for the fireman. One fireman was assisted from the burning home by fellow firefighters and received treatment on a neighboring porch. Chief Fire Marshall Michael A. Julazadeh emphasized the following via email: “The importance of smoke alarms in the home to alert occupants, when home, of the fire incident; always call 911 if you see or smell something unusual in the area; be sure to keep your neighbors informed (if you plan to travel, etc.) and leave contact information in the event of an emergency.” On Saturday, the day after the blaze, young Elena and Lauren Evin and Avery Warren, who live across the street from the damaged home, set up a lemonade stand for three and a half hours to support the firefighters that helped protect them the night before.

Planned to open in January 2007, the 5,000 sq. ft. building was meant to focus on lifelong learning. According to Colleen Carney, the Berkeley Country Library System Director at the time, “[That includes] everything from preparation to learning to read in school, to seniors who are taking classes, to adults doing research for businesses, to entrepreneurs, and of course, for recreational reading of all kinds…” In Island Life, there was a showcase of pictures from the annual Hootie and the Blowfish concert. From the 8/24/06 issue: In medical news, Dr. Charlie Turner wrote Jason Roberts of Daniel an article about kids and eyeglasses. With back Island takes a moment after to school underway, Turner suggested children school to read books on his back porch.

As proposed, the island and much of the surrounding Cainhoy area would move from the 6th Congressional District to the 1st Congressional District, territory covered by Rep. Tim Scott (R). “I’m truly excited about the opportunity to earn the right to represent folks on Daniel Island,” said Scott, who recalled working with island residents about 15 years prior during his time on Charleston County Council, when he and his fellow council members tried to determine how to establish the newly developing Daniel Island community as a part of Charleston County (Daniel Island ultimately became part of Berkeley County). From the 8/25/11 issue: Legislative work on developing a redistricting plan began earlier this year, after 2010 Census results showed the state’s population grew by more than 600,000 people over the previous decade. The 15.3 percent surge, which brought the population total to 4.6 million, necessitated the addition of a new, 7th congressional district.

Meet Mark, an engineer in charge of emergency response at Spawar; Cheryl, a trainer at Pearson; Marissa, a senior at Hanahan High School; Ellie, a freshman at Hanahan High School; Nina, a seventh grader at Daniel Island School; and Sully, the family dog. Where are you from originally? Cheryl Jansen (CJ): Mark and I are both from Charleston. Mark’s family has been here going back a while, whereas my parents came because of the Navy Base. We both attended Blessed Sacrament Catholic School followed by high school at Bishop England when it was still downtown. Although we knew of each other we really didn’t get acquainted until we met at Cafe 99 downtown during Spoleto. Mark Jansen (MJ): After we got married, we waited seven years before having The Jansen family with their beautiful Christmas gingerbread houses. our first child, Marissa. You’ve got to grow sea legs before you have kids. CJ: And enjoy every moment. Why did you/your family choose to make Daniel Island your home? MJ: We were in the process of building a house in Hollywood (South Carolina), when the word got out about this new “master plan” for Daniel Island. My brother was an engineer for SCE&G at the time who had already surveyed the land. He called us to say, “You’ve got to see this place!” CJ: The plan included an elementary school and Bishop England was going to move here. We really liked the idea that our children could go to school and play with their friends after school in the neighborhood. Mark and I did not have that growing up because we didn’t go to the zoned school. MJ: This was around 2000 when there were only about five houses in the front of the Codner’s Ferry section along Daniel Island Drive. As an intern for NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency) back then, I had access to maps of the area. We wanted to build near what is now Bellinger Island, but the development company wasn’t ready to begin clearing the land back there. Later, we got a call about available houses. We moved to DI on Elfe Street, one road east of Daniel Island Drive which at that time stopped at Mazo Street, across from (what is today) Center Park. CJ: Every morning at around 6 a.m., we’d be awakened by gobbling noises. About a dozen large wild turkeys were wandering around. They were probably here The Daniel Island News ■ August 25 - 31, 2016 from the days when the Guggenheim family owned the island and used it as a hunting ground. What attracted you to the neighborhood and the house you currently live in? MJ: By the time our third child, Nina, was on her way, we knew we needed a bigger house. At that time, around 2004, there weren’t enough houses or lots available to accommodate the rising tide of would-be homeowners. The development company put a lottery in place - interested buyers often had to pay as much as $5,000 just for a chance to bid. CJ: Fortunately, through friends on the island, we found a house on Pierce Street and we sold our house on Elfe Street in a few days. It was a miracle that we bought and sold property here so fast. There weren’t a lot of choices available. We just needed a house with enough bedrooms for us and each of our three kids - and a playroom. Of course, I love the open floor plan, a design that’s kind of basic in all Daniel Island homes. What changes have you seen on Daniel Island since you moved here? MJ: The mosquito situation on the island used to be really bad. The mosquitoes were See family on PAGE 11 You are invited to our Sign Unveiling Event August 26 • 6pm • UBS Atrium Lobby Daniel Island Performing Arts Center will stage a Media Event at their building site on Island Park Drive, Daniel Island.

You couldn’t even go out of your house at times. It was a big health concern. Now, Berkeley and Charleston counties split the cost to spray the island fairly regularly. Also, in the early years, after the sun went down, it was pitch dark all over the island because there were no street lamps back then. It was a little scary. Do you have plans to move to any other address/location on - or even off - Daniel Island? CJ: We do plan to stay, although we might downsize to a smaller house once everyone’s graduated high school and college. And our girls just assume that they’ll eventually be moving back to Daniel Island to start their own families. What is your family’s favorite place to hang out on the island? MJ: Everyone in our family is so busy now it’s hard to take advantage of the events on the island. I guess we’ve kind of taken life here for granted. We still do try to at least go to the summer concert on the Wando and the Concert at the Park. CJ: We also love the Pumpkin Walk every Halloween, especially making jack-o thedanielislandnews.com lanterns at Pierce Park Pavilion with the kids. MJ: This summer, we got a chance to really appreciate all that the island offers when Cheryl’s cousins visited from New Jersey for the Fourth of July holiday. Over that long weekend, we had about twentyseven people in the house. We did a lot the Fourth of July activities on the island - and we had a blast. We’re planning to make the family visit an annual tradition. You really get to appreciate what we have on Daniel Island all over again just taking it all in through others’ eyes. Nina Jansen (NJ): My favorite thing to do on Daniel Island is hanging out with my friends and being able to ride around on our bike. Ellie Jansen (EJ): And I love the holiday events like the Pumpkin Walk. (NJ): There’s a real sense of community and security on Daniel Island. (EJ): The whole neighborhood comes out to help when someone is in need. Do you ever take day trips/short weekend trips off the island? MJ: Every summer, when the girls were younger, we’d go to Disney World or gem mining in the highlands of North Carolina. Now that they’re older, we look forward to hiking and swimming in Table Rock State Park in Pickens, SC. Does your family have any special traditions? CJ: Every Christmas, we make a point of signing up for the gingerbread house decorating class at Trident Technical College’s cooking school. We’ve been doing this for years and we’ll continue as long as we can. Do you prefer to cook meals at home or eat out? CJ: Mark and I attended some cooking “boot camps” in Charleston- especially arming to cook Asian cuisine. And we do like to try new recipes at home, like shrimp and grits. island news 11 Do you have any favorite restaurants on or off the island? CJ: Wasabi. We could go there every night. When we visited Tokyo two years ago, we got to experience the traditional Japanese meal. What’s for dinner at the Jansen house tonight? Actually, we’re going to dinner at a friend’s house tonight. But tomorrow, it’ll probably be shrimp gumbo. If you could describe your life on Daniel Island in a few words, what would they be? CJ: Community. Security….. MJ: Life is good.

The 18,000 square foot space, developed by S.L. Shaw & Associates, will sit on the other side of the large pond behind the Simmons Park apartment complex. Bridge Real Estate Advisors will serve as the leasing agent for the property. Named “Daniel’s Corner,” the structure will be a multiuse, Class A building featuring retail and office space on the first level, office space on the second level, and two upscale residential units on the third floor. According to Alan Blom, Senior Advisor at Bridge Real Estate Advisors, the property will offer top of the line finishes, private balconies, ample parking, Charleston-inspired accents such as a brick floor and gas lanterns, as well as “boutique” style décor. “What we’ve found is that a lot of retail and office users want a different type of property, a different feel,” said Blom. “And they like this kind of boutique style instead of a traditional office building.” The developer constructed a similar property at 125 River Landing that was completed in 2015. That building is now fully occupied by a variety of businesses, including Momentum Marketing, L2NL, Bridge Real Estate Advisors, Sauer Grapes, Threshold Pediatrics, Barter Card, and Charleston Healthspan Institute. The property filled up quickly, noted Blom, and he is confident the new project will have similar success. g a re tn ew ic pr e provided by Bridge Real Estate Advisors The 18,000 square foot space, developed by S.L.

August 25 - 31, 2016 ■ The Daniel Island News thedanielislandnews.com BCSD responds to bussing concerns expressed by PSES/PSMS parents ELIZABETH BUSH beth@thedanielislandnews.com While there were relatively few bumps reported in the first week of school in the Berkeley County School District (BCSD), things didn’t go as smoothly when it came to bus transportation for some students attending Philip Simmons Elementary School (PSES) and Philip Simmons Middle School (PSMS). Several PSES and PSMS parents took to social media early in the week to post their frustrations with bus delays and overcrowding. One Huger parent shared a video taken by her middle school daughter on the bus showing students standing in the aisle while the bus was in motion. In other cases, buses were late to stops or showed up too early and missed kids entirely. District officials reported to The Daniel Island News late in the week that they were monitoring the routes each day in the PSES/ PSMS and Daniel Island School areas, as well as countywide, and that they had made changes to “improve efficiency and maintain safety.” “We have adjusted stop times and assigned larger buses where necessary and when possible,” stated Wes Fleming, BCSD Director of Transportation. Fleming also sought to reassure parents by reaching out to them in response to their concerns. One parent posted a letter she received from Fleming on the PS Parents Facebook page. “I assure you your voice is being heard and actions are being taken to remedy each and every issue at PSE/ PSM as well as the others schools in Berkeley County,” wrote Fleming. “…Buses the first few days of school are historically delayed due to several factors. There are more cars and traffic at all elementary schools with parents dropping their students off. The teachers and administrators are extra cautious both morning and afternoon with unloading and loading students to ensure they are on the correct bus. In the cases where they might end up on the wrong bus, that bus has to return to the school with the student.” Most of the delays start to disappear after the first week or so of school, added Fleming. “With the added factor of being new schools and new bus riders from areas where we had no student riders in the past, the last few days have been challenging,” he continued, referring to the first several days of ‘back to school’ week. Although the district increased driver salaries over the summer, they are still short approximately 22 drivers, added Fleming. The district also recently had two large classes of drivers, from which they continue to train and certify candidates at a rate of about three per week. “It is still a difficult job and requires extensive training just to complete the CDL portion, then they must complete training to be certified by the State Department of Education,” said Fleming. Another class is scheduled for September 26-29. Anyone interested in becoming a bus driver for the district can find employment information on the BCSD website (www. bcsdschools.net). In the meantime, the district will continue to assess the bussing situation for PSES/ PSMS students and make changes as needed. Fleming noted that he still does not have an accurate count on the number of students who will be utilizing district transportation on an on-going basis. “We are still collecting data,” added Fleming. “And that number will change (this week). It historically rises in week two of school.” 15 schools Investing starts with a Plan We align your financial resources with your personal goals.

T ELIZABETH BUSH beth@thedanielislandnews.com L aura Siebuhr Mendola was scheduled to work the 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. shift on September 11, 2001 in lower Manhattan. For the former medic with the Fire Department of New York’s Battalion 45, it began like any other day. “My alarm went off and that’s how I started off,” recalled Mendola, who now resides on Daniel Island with her husband, Michael, and their children. But less than two hours after reporting for duty, Mendola and her partner were urgently called to the corner of West and Vesey Streets near the World Trade Center. “We got there eight minutes after the first plane hit (the North Tower),” she added. “…We knew it was an MCI, which is a mass casualty incident. And we knew that having one ambulance wasn’t enough resources.” Mendola and her partner quickly got to work at the base of the South Tower, where a triage station had been set up, tagging victims based on the severity of their conditions. Patients were put on city buses to be transported to area hospitals. “My role was to do what I was trained to do,” said Berkeley County Sheriff’s Department Deputy Cpl.

And if somebody was bleeding, apply pressure. If somebody was in distress, your job was to do your job and just follow protocol.” Just 17 minutes after the first building was hit, an additional plane few into the South Tower, about 75 floors above where Mendola and her partner were stationed. “All you heard was this low hum,” she continued. “And then just a smash and an explosion…My partner heard it, too. He hit me and I kind of looked up, and he said, ‘Run!’” Once outside the building, they were separated. But Mendola attempted to make it back to the scene to find out if her partner was safe. In the process, someone grabbed her and told her to flee the area. She doesn’t know the identity of the man, but she credits him with saving her life. Within moments, the South Tower collapsed. “They teach you what impending doom might feel like,” said Mendola. “I may have caught a glimpse of that. When I started running, I thought, ‘Oh my God, this is it!’” “It was awful,” she continued, when remembering the scenes she encountered. “What you saw on TV, the magnitude of it was so much worse, just being there… You couldn’t really capture what was happening.” Michael Dell’era will all ser Fast forward 15 years to 2016.

They carry that burden every day…Having heard Laura’s story personally, it’s a real honor to have the opportunity to be able to allow her to share her experience and to show her that the community has not forgotten.” Faircloth also pointed to Gist as another shining example of what men and women in uniform selflessly do on a daily basis when called to serve. “We were just so touched by her story,” she said. “She is a local hometown hero who faced a very difficult situation while on duty one night.

It says so much about her dedication to her community and that she’s willing to put that uniform back on and get back out there.” So far, registrations for race day are up from this same time period last year, added Faircloth. More than 400 people have signed on thus far to take part. Fifty percent of the proceeds from the event benefit the Travis Manion Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering our nation’s veterans and the families of fallen heroes. Another fifty percent will benefit Berkeley County EMS, Charleston County Volunteer Rescue Squad, and the James Island Public Service Department (fire department). Since the race began five years ago, more than $55,000 has been donated to a variety of organizations serving first responders, veterans and active duty military, as well as 9/11 victims and their families. Faircloth encouraged people of all ages to join the event, either as a race participant or as a supporter. “Get involved and get there,” she said. “Be a part of it. …We would love to see the town just come out in red, white and blue.

BOWMAN The Bishop England football team handed Christ Church a rare loss Friday night, using a formula very similar to the one that has made the Bishops a Lower State power this decade. Quarterback Leo Albano rushed for 181 yards and three touchdowns to lead the visiting Bishops past the Cavaliers in the seasonopener for both teams. All total, the Bishops churned for 451 yards on the ground to defeat Christ Church, a team that is making the adjustment from Class A to AA. The Bishops’ victory at Carson Stadium ended Christ Church’s 38-regular-season winning streak at home. “I was pleased with the effort,” Bishop England coach John Cantey said. “From a logistical standpoint, the trip was a hassle. We had to get off (Interstate) 26 because there was an overturned truck. That made a long trip even longer.” The Bishops, playing in their first game at the Class AAA level, topped the Cavaliers, a team that has been dominant in the Upstate. The Cavaliers won four straight state championships from 2012-15 and had a 55-game winning streak that ended last year. Albano added 80 yards passing with another TD in the air as the Bishops outgained Christ Church 531-234. Running back Ian Butler also had a big game for the Bishops, with 97 yards on only five carries. The Bishops trailed 21-14 entering the final quarter, but that’s when Albano went to work. He scored three TDs in the deciding 12 minutes. He raced 51 yards for a score. He also scored on a pair of 3-yard runs in the 4th quarter, including one that was set up by a perfectly executed onside kick. “We’ve been preaching to the kids that our offense has the potential to wear down a team,” Cantey said. “What we didn’t preach or expect is the way Chris Church handled us in the third quarter. “But our guys were resilient when we needed it. They could have packed it up, but we didn’t quit.” The Bishops return to Cantey Stadium Friday night to host West Ashley, one of the better bigger schools in the Lowcountry. West Ashley features one of the top running backs in the state in Dexter Freeman, and is coming off a 46-14 victory over Colleton County. thedanielislandnews.com sports 19 Hanahan cruises in week 1, will be tested in week 2 PHILIP M. BOWMAN Week 1 of the high school football season presented no worries for the Hanahan Hawks. This week? Well, that’s an entirely different scenario for coach Charlie Patterson and his troops. The Hawks trounced May River High 4713 Friday night at Wiley Knight Stadium. It was the first game ever for May River, a new school that is located in Bluffton. This weekend’s opponent, Andrews, has quite a bit more history. And Andrews already has a victory this season. The Yellow Jackets hammered Waccamaw 47-13 and host the Hawks in Region 8-AAA game. “They’ve got some big guys and some good athletes,” Hanahan coach Charlie Patterson said of Andrews. “They have a power running game, so we will be tested. This is a quality opponent.” Against May River, it was no contest pretty much from the start. Hanahan’s Cooper Dawson blocked a Sharks’ punt on their first possession and it was more of the same the rest of the way as the Hawks gained more than 300 yards in the first half en route to a 31-0 lead. “I think our kids were excited to play a football game,” Patterson said. “We played a fairly clean game. We didn’t have that many penalties and the first team didn’t put the ball on the ground. And, our quarterback (Victor Colbert) completed 11 of 12. These are things to build on.” Running back Jerry Bailey scored on runs of 23 and 1 yards while Colbert added touchdown passes to Malieck Anderson for 19 yards and Jamie Watson for 14 yards. Quincy Mitchell also scored on a 4-yard run for the Hawks, who are seeking yet another region championship. Hawks running back Shi Hart scored on a 4-yard run and defensive back Donald Vanderhorst returned an interception 56 yards for a TD for Hanahan’s other TDs. Luke Litwin kicked a 29-yard field goal for the Hawks, who shone in all three phases of the game: offense, defense, and special teams. “This week will be a lot different,” Patterson said. “Last week, we faced a new program that was excited to play its first game. Andrews has been there. We face a team with a strong tradition.” 20 outdoor living The Daniel Island News ■ August 25 - 31, 2016 thedanielislandnews.com got pain? we’ve got your back!

Ocean and harbor water temperatures are a bit cooler than the water in the creeks. So the incoming tide floods the creeks with cooler water and stimulates Redfish and Trout to eat. Unfortunately, (this week) the incoming tide was late in the afternoon and strong thunderstorms put a serious dent in my fishing time. In late August, Redfish and Trout have shrimp on their minds. Over the past few weeks, I have been learning to rig and fish the new Z-Man EZ Shrimp. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite lures. Of course, nothing beats the real thing. So when the weather actually allowed me to fish, the EZ Shrimp and real (live) shrimp were the way to go. I rigged the EZ Shrimp on a 3/0 sixteenth ounce keel weighted hook. This combination casts pretty well (on light tackle) and sinks like a real shrimp. For the live shrimp, I used a sixteenth ounce lead head jig. This set-up was a bit of a challenge to cast (even on light tackle) but the Trout and Ladyfish sure liked it. The most productive areas were marsh points and creek mouths being swept by the incoming tide. Casting an EZ Shrimp (or live one) into the area and letting it drift with the tide was highly effective.

My favorite rod (for casting light lures and baits) is a St. Croix 6’9” Pan Fish Rod. It is pretty light for saltwater species but casts lighter lures extremely well. In August, thunderstorms and shrimp are a big part of the fishing scene. Don’t fish during a thunderstorm or without a shrimp!

The club noted in a press release that “one of the many attractions of Daniel Island are the wonderful fishing waters that surround the Island as well as its interior fresh water ponds. These fishing waters offer the opportunity for families to fish together, making memories and forming bonds between children and adults that will continue for years. The Family Fishing Statue represents such a moment in the lives of a little girl and boy.” Active fishing club member and chairman of the KIDS Fishing Tournament Fred Danziger presented the statue to POA Field Operations Manager Chris Hamil, thanking the POA for being very good to the club.

Erin Branham and Joe Gough DI residents It’s that time of year when many of us have children heading back to school or college. As parents, we want to get off to a good start and are focused on supporting our children’s academics, school activities, and keeping the new calendar items organized. In the midst of the business that is life for most of us, our personal health and fitness often gets put on the backburner. But are we happy with our current level of physical activity? Or do we have a goal to improve...starting now!? We - Erin Branham (or “Bear” nickname to her FiA tribe) and Joe Gough (or “Hotwire” nickname to his F3 peers) - want to make DI adult residents aware of an opportunity that’s free, rewarding, and perhaps the boost of support and friendship you need to jump start your fitness this fall. Females in Action (FiA) for women and F3 (Fitness, Fellowship and Faith) for men are peer-led outdoor workout groups that meet in the mornings several times a week at Governor’s Park (rain or shine). The groups participate in boot-camp style workouts (core and leg exercises, moderate intervals of jogging, push-ups, jumping jacks, etc). Each workout is different, as a member of the group (e.g., perhaps your neighbor) selects the exercises the group will do for a 45/50 minute workout. All levels of fitness are welcome and the exercises can be modified to meet your specific fitness and comfort level. FiA and F3 originated in North Carolina and have locations in over 13 states as the growth continues rapidly across the US. The mission of F3 is to “plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.” While FiA is “a community of women whose mission is to make each other stronger in all areas of our lives.” FiA and F3 reach beyond Daniel Island with workout locations throughout Charleston, including Mount Pleasant, Isle of Palms, Sullivan’s Island, West Ashley, Summerville and Folly Beach to name a few. We’re very fortunate to have FiA and F3 on Daniel Island. I (Joe Gough) have been going for over a year (I quit my gym and started F3) and am benefiting in so many ways (I’m 53 years old there are no age restrictions). It’s been awesome to meet other guys and dads from DI and the Long Point Road area who come to Governors Park. We’re staying fit, feeling better, and getting to know and support each other and our families. I personally like the accountability factor. Your buddies and neighbors are continuously encouraging you—it’s great! We’re also setting an example of a fitness lifestyle for our children to see. These groups are also looking beyond the workouts to give back to Charleston through charitable fundraising events, such as last year’s F3 participation in the Charleston Dragon Boat Festival (fundraiser for Charleston area cancer survivors) and other charitable events. We also plan family events, such as beach days and an inshore boat and pier fishing tournament for the kids and everyone who wants to join-in. We also have specific Saturdays when the kids See fitness on PAGE 23 August 25 - 31, 2016 ■ The Daniel Island News thedanielislandnews.com The groups participate in boot-camp style workouts sports 23 From fitness on PAGE 22 work out with the parents. We did this last year at Park Day - such a great family experience! I (Erin Branham) helped launch FiA on DI in May of 2016 because I had been attending some other area locations and was looking for a closer option. I felt certain there were many women on and near the island who could also benefit from a Daniel Island FiA option. We were thrilled to have over 35 ladies at our first workout! I feel truly blessed to break a sweat with some really amazing women I’ve come to know really well in the past several months. FiA, although an awesome workout, is truly so much more than that. I’m excited to see the continued growth and am hopeful that others will join us. There’s no signing up… just show up with water and SAVE THE DATE You’re invited to come out and try FiA and F3. On Labor Day Weekend, Saturday Sept 3, 7:30 -8:30 am at Governors Park there will be a combined FiA/F3 workout.

It may be a little early, but the sunrise makes up for it and it’s so nice to get up and get my fitness checked off of my list before I start my day. The final aspect of F3, besides the fitness and fellowship, is faith. FiA and F3 are not religious groups. However, each workout concludes with a short devotion and opportunity to pray for events going on in each other’s lives: health issues among family, friends, or co-workers; recognition of the sacrifices of the military and their families; challenging issues at work; and perhaps simpler things like a big test at school or a tryout for our kids.

The broth is heavenly, with just the right amount of oil and herbs to produce a delicious concoction in which to dip your mussels and, of course, the accompanying bread, until the bowl has been wiped clean.” No matter the price, Crystal noted she would order the mussels… “But it costs about $12,” adding, “The portion size is perfect as an app for two to share, or a meal for one and then touch them if you dare.

It’s simple – just respond to the following or go online at https:// www.surveymonkey.com/r/7VNR3ZT to answer the same questions as here: 1) Where were you served the best thing you ate all month? 2) What was the food that left you speechless (mainly because you couldn’t stop horking it down)? 3) Can you describe what made the dish so magical? Be sure to speak slowly... 4) Dish more on the dish, if you can - price, portion size, availability on regular menu, and the psychological repercussions of consuming something so rad. 5) Please email a photo of your to-die-for dish and responses to the four questions above (don’t leave any out!) to sdetar@thedanielislandnews.com.
