Our colleague, Evan Thompson of Historic Beaufort Foundation, is also the District 10 representative of the Confederation of South Carolina Local Historical Societies. He asked for our help in suggesting nominees for the SC Hall of Fame. Each of the Confederation’s 10 districts selects nominees – thus presenting 10 contemporary and 10 deceased nominees to the SC Hall of Fame Board of Trustees for judging annually.
The SC Hall of Fame honors contemporary and past citizens who have made outstanding contributions to South Carolina’s heritage and progress.
Persons born in South Carolina who obtained recognition elsewhere and persons born elsewhere but who made their home in and obtained esteem and recognition in the state of South Carolina are eligible for induction.
One contemporary and one deceased citizen may be inducted into the Hall of Fame annually.
Please come to the May 15th meeting armed with a list of nominees to share with the group.
