The Campbell Kids – Walking to End Alzheimer’s Written By: Perry Henderson, VP of Sales & Marketing at Anderson Dahlen, Inc. Our family, like so many, has experienced the pain and struggle that comes when a loved one is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.

2021 InnoVision Awards: 8 of 18 finalists are from the Upstate Written By: Caron St. John When the weather begins to turn cooler, many South Carolinians think about football, leaf color, and pumpkin spice. But, for many of us, fall is all about celebrating innovation in South Carolina! InnoVision Awards has been recognizing and supporting innovation in South Carolina through awards, forums, and networking since 1999. Each spring and early summer, we accept nominations and applications from innovative organizations. We then send the applications off to out-of-state independent judges. Now, as fall is arriving, we are ready to showcase the finalists with our free virtual Meet the Finalist (MTF) Series held Tuesdays at 4:00 PM on September 28th, October 5th, and October 12th.
