The process of installing a pool or spa isn't something you can handle on your own, though. You will need a team of experienced electricians in Kershaw, SC to ensure your system is set up correctly.

These units are very complex and have a whole host of electrical needs, from heating units and filters to color-changing lights that wow your guests. Having a professional install these parts is vital. Otherwise, you'll be swimming in a dirty, near-freezing pool or spa.

Finding a reliable EV charging station when you're out and about is still a gamble in this day and age. While EV charger availability is improving, most EV owners prefer to have a charging station installed at home. But doing so is easier said than done and often requires the help of a professional electrician.
If you're like most homeowners, you don't have the proper permit to install your own EV charging station. For that reason alone, you need to rely on a pro who has the right tools and electrical know-how to handle the job. Plus, EV chargers need much more voltage than standard electrical systems you may find in your home. That makes installing these devices much more dangerous than average appliances. Hiring Sievert Electrical Contractors to install your charging station ensures it's completed quickly, correctly, and safely.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WRDW/WAGT) - Orphans or kids whose parents can’t take care of them can stay with other family members or close friends.
It’s called “kinship care.” Nearly 4,000 kids and teens are currently in South Carolina’s foster system, and about a quarter of them are with kinship caregivers.
Those relatives don’t necessarily get the same help as foster parents – but new legislation could change that.
The South Carolina Department of Social Services says the program it’s proposing in this bill is designed to support permanent placements of kids and teens with their kinship caregivers – and get them out of the foster system forever.
South Carolina is one of just 10 states that hasn’t implemented this program – though it’s been around for about a decade.
“It’s really important when these kids have trauma for them to be able to begin that healing process, and that’s best done with family and friends that they know,” said Sue Williams of the CEO of the Children’s Trust of South Carolina.
The bill would provide kinship caregivers with more legal authority to care for children – which they say would make processes like obtaining birth certificates easier.
The legislation would also establish a Kin GAP program – allowing kinship caregivers to receive financial assistance similar to what foster families get from the government.
A legislative estimate says the federal government can give South Carolina about half a million dollars next year for this, while the state would also have to put in about $1.7 million of its own money.
One South Carolina kinship caregiver says this legislation would especially help grandparents and older relatives – living on fixed incomes.
“They don’t want to let the child go into foster care because it’s a family member and so on, and they want to take care of the child. If they do that, today, they may not have any financial support, and they’re already struggling,” said Daryl McCulley, Kershaw County kinship caregiver.
This bill will next be considered in the Senate Family and Veterans’ Services Committee next Wednesday – after advancing out of a subcommittee this week.

KERSHAW COUNTY, S.C. — A new facility to bring ball games, and additional recreation options, could be in the works for Kershaw County.
"Parks and Rec in Kershaw County have kinda been left behind if you look at surrounding counties or other counties with a similar population. We do not have a tournament facility where we can host tournaments, where our leagues can play inside the county," says Katie Guinn, Kershaw County Council chairwoman.
Council was approached with an offer to completely change the landscape of Woodward Park.
The presentation from The Kershaw County Health Services District says they would provide $2M, while M-U-S-C would provide $3M in order to expand the park and put forth a recreation center, but they are asking the county to match the $5 million dollars in total and to make a decision within 90 days.
"We haven't concentrated on making a tournament facility place, so the time is now to do that, there is a real interest in the community, there is a need in the community. From an economic standpoint, this will help offset the taxpayer cost of the facility. There is a lot of research out there on the economic impact of a 3-day long tournament on the weekend so that's also intriguing," adds Guinn.
A change that some residents would like to see.
"I think it would be good for the community, give the kids more to do and get them off the streets," says Kershaw county resident, Shannon Hyman.
But if the council decides to move forward…. Guinn says they have a few more steps left to take…and a previous rendering to look over.
"They did get them drawn up that was before I was in office, and I would expect this county council to get a second opinion anyway, we're gonna start from I don't wanna say the beginning, cause there has been a lot of work done before this but, will start the discussion, then vote, then the planning process and not just take what was previously looked at," Guinn adds.
Council hopes to have this on their agenda at their next meeting on February 28th, which takes place at 5:30 pm at the Kershaw County Government Center.
She also says the council is working on other Parks and Recreation options in their budget outside of Woodward Park.

KERSHAW, S.C. (WBTV) – A South Carolina restaurant had an unexpected patron charge through its doors earlier this week.
The owners of 521 Filling Station in Kershaw posted video surveillance footage to its Facebook page that shows a deer making its way into the eatery on Monday. 521 Filling Station is used to heavy foot traffic in and out of the door. But hoof traffic? Not so much.
”I’m in a meeting with the human resources officers and I start getting phone calls. So I step out and call and they’re like there’s a deer in the restaurant. And I said, ‘What?’ And they said, ‘There’s a deer in the restaurant!’ and I said you’re kidding me,” said co-owner Kevin Sims.
Video on the restaurant’s Facebook page shows that this situation was no joke. You can see a deer burst through the front glass door and slide right into the dining room of the restaurant.
”Came across the parking lot full head of steam. Hit the front door. Shattered glass everywhere. He slid over here and then there’s chaos,” he says.
A startled worker gets out of the way as the deer slips on the floor, knocking down chairs as it slides around the restaurant. The video shows all that chaos unfolding.
The animal eventually winds up in a booth before one of the workers got their hands on the deer and slid it across the floor and then back outside.
“He needed help to get out, so I helped him!” said Beth Truesdale, a server at the restaurant.
Truesdale cornered that deer and got it calm enough to be able to drag it out. The server showed her nerves of steel the entire time.
”I was just trying to get him. I’m a country girl it didn’t bother me,” she sa
When asked how she managed to stay so cool, calm, and collected she said it was simple. She had to get back to work.
”Servers only make $2.13 an hour. Most of them. So, I just needed him to leave so I could finish making my money,” she explained laughing.
“Never a dull moment @ THE 521,” the restaurant posted. Watch the original video below:

A scary 24 hours in Kershaw as 11 overdoses were reported, 4 of which resulted in deaths.
KERSHAW COUNTY, S.C. — Kershaw County Sheriff Lee Boan says his county is on pace to have the worst year on record of drug overdose deaths.
On Thursday the department posted an update that in a 24 hour stretch, 11 overdoses were called in, with four resulting in deaths.
How bad has the drug epidemic become in Kershaw county?
"It's becoming more and more frequent, " said Sheriff Bone.
The Kershaw County Coroners office says the overdoses likely originated from a the same source that was sold on the streets.
Sheriff Boan says his narcotics units are seeing calls weekly that originate from drug overdoses.
The vast majority of deaths coming directly from exposure to Fentanyl, an opioid that is more potent than other popular drugs.
"They think they're buying heroine or they're buying cocaine and it's laced with fentanyl and they don't know that, they're not told that," he said.
Fentanyl is an issue that Mara Jones sees on a daily basis.
Jones is the executive director at ALPHA behavioral center in Camden. It's a drug treatment center that averages 300 active participants in an opioid treatment program.
"Families are devastated, that's why it's a family disease, it's not an individual disease, " she said.
It's why her team offers counseling and free resources. She says anyone can walk into their facilities at their Camden location at 208 King Street and get Narcan, an overdose reversal agent, and fentanyl test strips--to see if the product has any of the drug.
"This is a safe way for harm reduction in our community and [for] individuals to stay alive, " she continued.
The sheriff says it's an epidemic that isn't going anywhere, which education being the key to beating it.
He has now reinstated the county's D.A.R.E. program to teach school students about the dangers of drugs.
He encourages anyone seeking help or with information on drug trafficking to reach out to the sheriff's department.
