Making indoor swimming safer, more cost effective and less stinky One of the most exciting additions to any hotel stay is an indoor pool, but you’ve probably also been unpleasantly surprised by the smell of chlorine that seems to smack swimmers in the face as soon as you enter the pool area. The smell lingers on your clothes, towels and skin long after your swim. That exact smell is a by-product of the chemical reaction between chlorine and the chemicals swimmers emit while in the pool. This chemical reaction then leads to the production of chloramines in the pool water which become trapped in the indoor pool space. These chloramines can cause eye irritation and potential respiratory illnesses for those exposed to the gas for long periods of time. These same gases also can contribute to the degradation and corrosion of all of the metal objects in the pool area such as ladders, rails, door hinges, etc. The good news is that Genco Pools— along with Hayward®—has a fix for it.

Genco Pools and Spas is using ultraviolet (UV) lights in indoor pools to cut down on both the amount of chlorine needed and the creations of these nuisance chloramines to ultimately keep the water safe for swimmers by up to 50% or more. The reduction of chloramines nearly eliminates that smell and the negative health effects that come from it. “The smell comes from chemical by-product left over when chlorine reacts with swimmers in the pool,” says Ryan Glorioso, Commercial Aquatics Specialist of the Southeast at Hayward®. “You can often smell the indoor pool from the lobby. If that gas is inhaled constantly, it can cause mild and serious respiratory illnesses.”

In addition to improving the air quality around the pool, UV lights also make the water safer than chlorine alone. “Using UV lights in addition to chlorine kills virtually all bacteria and water-borne illnesses in indoor pools,” says Todd Edwards, Director of Sales and Business Development at Genco. “It speeds up the rate at which these bacteria are killed, so swimmers can trust that the water is safe and sanitary.”

“The maintenance for UV lights is a bare minimum. It’s much easier than chlorine maintenance, and for the average indoor pool, it’s a fairly inexpensive investment.”

– Todd Edwards, Genco Pools & Spas The UV system, in addition to chlorine, actually creates three levels of defense against bacteria and waterborne illnesses. “We use a dual-wave length UV light,” says Glorioso. “The lower wavelength is the perfect wavelength for the creation of ozone which is a more potent oxidizer than chlorine or bromine. The higher wavelength is perfect for creating the UV light, breaking down bacteria and preventing them from reproducing.” The third level of defense is the creation of hydroxyl radicals, which are the second most potent oxidizer in the world and the most powerful disinfectants allowed

in pools. Altogether, the trifecta kills more than 99.9% of bacteria and water-borne illnesses.

Many commercial pools are now required to have a secondary disinfecting system, and the cutting-edge technology of UV doesn’t break the bank. Cutting chlorine use nearly in half saves pool managers significantly over the long-term. Todd Edwards says, “The maintenance for UV lights is a bare minimum. It’s much easier than chlorine maintenance, and for the average indoor pool, it’s a fairly inexpensive investment.”

Swimmers’ safety is at the top of Genco’s priority list, and Hayward® is helping them provide confidence and convenience to their luxury pools in the Upstate. Genco is adding top-notch technology to their state-of-the-art designs to keep swimmers cool outside in the summer, wet inside in the winter and safe all year-round.

City pledges millions more for affordable housing at County Square n story and photo by EVAN PETER SMITH Pictured: Mayor Knox White and County Council Chairman Butch Kirven announced plans for $7 million in affordable housing on the County Square site.

The long-discussed $1 billion County Square project has been a saga of many pauses, setbacks and points of contention between city and county leaders – but those days may soon be over. With a deadline looming the project must proceed on a clear path forward or it could risk dissolving entirely.

That’s the number one issue for us, that this project will be a positive on affordable housing.”

-Knox White, mayor Two major developments have taken place in the new year so far.

The first was a Jan. 7 County Council vote to stall any further decisions on the project until the city finalizes zoning specifics related primarily to building height — a delay that could threaten the county’s ability to purchase the property where new county buildings are to be constructed.

The second major development – revealed at a meeting between county and city leaders and neighborhood stakeholders in the early morning of Jan. 10 – are plans to significantly increase the amount of funds allocated to affordable housing, from $4 million up to $7 million.

Here’s why both mattered:

THE JAN. 7 VOTE

County Council voted on Jan. 7 to hit the pause button on a $120 million funding package for the County Square project, with no action slated to take place on the county’s side until the city has finalized the zoning elements of the project.

But the city won’t make that final vote until February, which might be cutting it close to a looming deadline on the

county’s side, according to the county’s bond attorney, Brad Love.

April 1 is the deadline by which the county must close on the $33 million purchase of property on Halton Road near Haywood Mall, where the proposed new county buildings will be erected. If the county misses that deadline, it would lose the $3.5 million down payment it made on the property and be forced to enter a long-term lease agreement with the property owners.

“That’s something that would not be beneficial because on top of losing the $3.5 million, lease rates are higher than the bond payments anyway,” Love said. “So it makes no financial sense to not close on the property.”

In order to meet that deadline, the county must finalize the $120 million funding package on or around the start of February, given that it will take about 60 days to get the bonds rated and sold.

THE JAN. 10 MEETING

Greenville mayor Knox White announced the city and county would work together to invest a combined $7 million in affordable housing on the County Square site.

“That’s the No. 1 issue for us, that this project will be a positive on affordable housing,” White said.

The combined $2 million from the county and $5 million from the city would allow the city, with county approval, to purchase five parcels on the site for affordable housing.

“We see a path forward with certitude on that,” White said, with Council Chairman Butch Kirven seated beside him.

“We’re looking at a major commitment with the county’s cooperation.”

Despite no specific details being released just yet on the properties’ makeup or how the money will be raised, both White and Kirven expressed collaboration and optimism.

HOW TO

SAVE A LIFE A look inside The Blood Connection n story by EVAN PETER SMITH | photos PROVIDED

B

lake Lawson is trying to solve a mystery — and if he fails, a woman’s life and the life of her unborn child could be on the line.

To solve this mystery, Lawson has only one piece of evidence: A vial of blood.

“A hospital calls and they have a complex case,” Lawson says. “That’s where we come in.”

THE BRAIN

A lab technician specializing in immunohematology, Lawson works in the downstairs testing laboratory at the headquarters of The Blood Connection, a community-driven blood center that serves the Carolinas and Georgia.

But the testing lab is just one small part of a much larger operation.

With dozens of ongoing blood drives, 10 collection centers, 42 mobile blood collection buses, dozens of couriers rushing blood donations to area hospitals and medical centers before rushing back to the two-story headquarters building on Bracken Road in Piedmont, the blood center’s operations require constant oversight and is open 24 hours a day.

That oversight is carried out in the organization’s production planning room – otherwise known as the center’s “brain.”

Inside the secluded room, six massive flatscreen televisions dominate a wall, displaying a steady stream of data from The Blood Connection’s ongoing blood drives, from the number of units of blood collected, to the number of units needed, to live security camera feeds of its collection centers.

I’m a small part in saving their life. Just one small piece. But from start to finish here in The Blood Connection, I’m one of those little cogs that says, ‘Here’s how I can help you save your life.’”

FROM THE COVER

“We provide our products for every single Upstate hospital,” says Allie Van Dyke, The Blood Connection’s media coordinator. Those “products” are whole blood — what most people imagine when they think of donating blood — as well as plasma, platelets and red blood cells.

Each product, which can be donated at The Blood Connection’s various mobile collection units and blood centers, has its own purpose. Generally speaking, Van Dyke says, plasma is useful for helping burn victims; platelets are useful for treating cancer patients; red cells are useful for blood disorders like anemia or sickle cell; and whole blood is useful for trauma victims or those undergoing surgery. Whole blood itself can also be separated into plasma, platelets and red blood cells through “processing,” whereby the blood is spun in a centrifuge until the three products separate due to varying densities.

The Blood Connection President and CEO Delisa English says getting the right products in the right quantities to its hospital partners is a delicate balance.

“The demand never stops,” English says. “It’s a constant reminder that on the other side of requests from local hospital are patients who rely on us for life-saving blood products. It makes all the intense planning and logistics worth it because we’re sharing life.”

Much of the blood products The Blood Connection collects are redistributed to patients right here in the Upstate.

“We take pride in being this community’s blood supplier,” English says. “We have the privilege of connecting with our neighbors to save lives here at home.”

THE LAB

But down in the lab, Lawson’s job as myBut down in the lab, Lawson’s job as mystery solver is outside of the usual journey that blood products go through.

He’s handling a special case.

“If you want to keep it simple,” Lawson says, “my job here is to test people’s blood to find out what kind of blood to give them.”

His work is a lot more complicated than just asking the patient what their blood type is. These are the cases that defy expectation, the cases the hospitals can’t solve on their own. And when any mistake could have deadly consequences, they rely on resources like The Blood Connection’s Lawson to find the answer.

Under normal circumstances, of course, hospitals have no trouble determining if blood is a match for a patient. They simply combine the patient’s blood with a testing agent in a vial to analyze whether there is a positive or negative reaction. If negative, the blood is fine. But if it turns out positive?

“You put that in someone, and they’re not going to have a good time,” Lawson says.

A patient might have just a mild reaction from receiving unmatched blood: chills, trouble breathing, fever. But Lawson says the patient could also face much more severe reactions, including death.

The demand never stops. It’s a constant reminder that on the other side of requests from local hospital are patients who rely on us for life-saving blood products.”

-Delisa English, president & CEO, The Blood Connection Lawson admits that many people shy away from doing blood bank work.

One small mistake and you could be, as Lawson says, a link in a chain that could lead to the end of someone’s life.

“But here’s how I look at it: Someone is in need of a life-saving thing," he says.

"And I’m a small part in saving their life. Just one small piece. But from start to finish here in The Blood Connection, I’m one of those little cogs that says: Here’s how I can help you save your life.”

So he gets to work, confident that soon enough, he’ll have found it — that perfect recipe on how to save a life.

THE JOURNEY

1

What makes matters so challenging for hospitals is when a patient’s blood keeps testing positive for a bad reaction even with a blood type that it’s supposed to match up with. Most of us have likely heard of the eight basic blood types: A, AB, B and O, which can be “positive” or “negative.” But there are hundreds of other blood types, according to Lawson.

Even the notion of a “blood type” is somewhat misleading, he says, for each of those basic types can be further classified into nearly endless subcategories, depending upon the combination of “antigens” on the surface of an individual’s red blood cells. Antigens are molecules attached to your red blood cells that tell your immune system to attack certain foreign elements — in this case, donor blood. To make matters more difficult, blood also contains antibodies, which are essentially soldiers that will attack any antigens it doesn’t recognize. A donor’s blood might have antibodies that will attack the blood of the recipient, leading to a harmful reaction, Lawson says.

Or in this case, a pregnant mother might have antibodies in her blood that are attacking her unborn child.

This is the case Lawson now has to solve.

“I’ve got to divide and conquer,” he says.

EDUCATION

Greenville Technical College launches new initiative designed to increase academic success rate

n story by GEORGIA GAY | photo PROVIDED

Greenville County Schools considering earlier elementary school start time n story by JEANNIE PUTNAM | photo PROVIDED

Greenville County Schools are considering earlier start and end times for elementary school students to address a districtwide problem of secondary bus riders being late to class.

“Secondary bus riders (high school students) are regularly missing instructional time due to late-morning arrivals,” said district spokeswoman Beth Brotherton. “Across the district, approximately 25% of high school buses are late every day.”

Greenville Technical College has launched a new initiative addressing achievement gaps with support from local charitable organizations.

The African American Male Scholars Initiative provides intensive case management and personalized support services to help participants overcome barriers, develop academic and career pathways, and graduate on time.

Services include academic advisement, career services, financial supports to address unmet need in student aid, peer support, and leadership development, and community service opportunities.

A new predictive analytics tool at the college is being used to measure effectiveness of specific interventions and efforts. The tool allows AAMSI leaders to see, on a weekly basis, which engagement tools are having an effect.

AAMSI was started with seed money provided by the Graham and Jolley foundations. The program furthers the

Graham Foundation’s value of supporting equality of opportunity and the Jolley Foundation’s mission of advancing efforts to eliminate the root causes and effects of poverty and discrimination.

Both organizations have been strong supporters of the Greenville Tech Foundation and GTC students for many years.

“With the help of the Graham Foundation and the Jolley Foundation, we can address an urgent need for our African-American males while building a sustainable model for the future,” said Ann Wright, vice president for advancement with the Greenville Tech Foundation. “The tools we are creating will increase engagement inside and outside of the classroom. We will see barriers to success overcome.”

The program is at capacity in its first semester with 100 students involved.

The goal is to retain at least 80% of those students from one academic year to the next.

We looked at the high schools with the most late buses and then examined the feeder patterns to see which elementary school routes would have the greatest impact on those tardies.”

-Beth Brotherton, district spokeswoman The proposed change would mean elementary schools would run from 7:45 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. instead of 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Brotherton said. This would allow for bus drivers to shift elementary drop off to 7 a.m. and add 15 minutes to their secondary routes.

Before sending out the proposal districtwide, the school district operated a pilot program that started with Tay-

lors Elementary routes serving Eastside High and expanded to Grove Elementary and Lake Forest Elementary in its second year. The schools were chosen based on which routes could help reduce the most tardiness.

“We looked at the high schools with the most late buses and then examined the feeder patterns to see which elementary school routes would have the greatest impact on those tardies,” Brotherton said.

Based on the success of the pilot programs and even with the current bus driver shortage, the percentage of secondary students who arrive late to school on a regular basis is expected to drop from 25% to 4%. The district projects if they could fill the driver shortage, it could drop to 2%, Brotherton said.

The proposal, which is in its early stages, has been sent out to principals districtwide for their feedback, as well as input from parents and employees.

The school district should hear the principals’ feedback at a meeting in March and then the proposal would be presented to the Greenville County Schools board.

Former sheriff opponents endorse Hobart Lewis in runoff, but A.T. Smith asks ‘what are they hiding?’ n story by EVAN PETER SMITH photos PROVIDED

Republican candidate for Greenville County Sheriff Hobart Lewis has received the endorsements of two former opponents in the lead-up to the Jan. 21 runoff vote, while candidate A.T. “Tommy” Smith is questioning the motivations behind what he calls a “pact.”

Lewis picked up the endorsements of Darius Hall and Robert Whatley, who placed third and fourth, respectively, in the Republican primary special election held on Tuesday, Jan. 6.

Lewis, who took home the most votes in the special election, will face off against Smith in a runoff election slated for Jan. 21.

At a news conference at County Square to announce the endorsements, Hall cited Lewis’ longstanding presence in Greenville as a deciding factor in his endorsement.

“Lewis has what it takes to address the morale problem with deputies and the trust issues with members of the community,” Hall said.

Whatley, for his part, cited Lewis’ faith as a main factor in his endorsement.

“He’s a good, honorable man with Christian values,” Whatley said.

Lewis’ opponent in the runoff, Smith, has questioned the motivation behind the endorsements, however, noting that during the primary campaign the three would “nod approvingly” at one another during debates and would never offer criticism of one another.

“They even had what amounted to a family picture taken after one debate,” Smith wrote in a Facebook post. “What is it they promised each other if one of them wins? Voters have a right to know.”

GIVING MATTERS

UPSTATE FATHERHOOD COALITION HELPS REBUILD FAMILIES n story by REBECCA HOWERTON | photos PROVIDED

Data and common wisdom agree — children with involved fathers have a better chance of avoiding problems such as homelessness and teen pregnancy, and leading happier, more productive lives.

Engagement with their children benefits fathers, too, as they set and achieve goals, adopt positive habits and recognize their own value. But barriers such as poverty, addiction and unhealthy relationships can derail even caring dads, to the detriment of families and communities.

Upstate Fatherhood Coalition provides a wide variety of services to help fathers — and some mothers — overcome those barriers, rebuilding their lives and families. The nonprofit was formed in 1999 by a group of concerned citizens from Greenville and Spartanburg counties with funding from the Sisters of Charity Foundation of South Carolina, and is strategically located at the Phillis Wheatley Center.

Kelly Walker, executive director, said the program was initially designed as a means to eradicate poverty. Over its 20 years the coalition has evolved to comprise a series of measures that help fathers get their lives on track so they can be the parents their children need.

Participation can be voluntary, or courtordered, as in the Jobs not Jail program, an alternative to incarcerating parents who are behind on their child support.

After an initial assessment, each participant sets goals and creates an action plan, then attends weekly curriculumbased peer support groups focused on parenting skills, economic stability and healthy relationships.

Everything we do is about parenting.

We give kids a second chance by putting fathers back in their lives in a positive way.”

-Kelly Walker, executive director, Upstate Fatherhood Coalition “Our ‘boot camp’ provides 20 hours of comprehensive employment readiness and tips on parenting that help them achieve economic stability,” Walker said. “When they come in, they’re in survival mode; we help them get into sustainability mode, understanding that their decisions have conse-

quences, and teach them how to make a dollar out of fifteen cents. The whole program is unique. By offering alternatives to incarceration, we’re saving tax money. With stable employment, they can pay child support. It’s a win-win, and it strengthens families.”

Transportation, mediation and legal assistance are available, and participants are directed to community partners for additional services where needed. A men’s health initiative through Prisma Health Greenville Health Authority provides education, screenings and referrals.

“They can get referrals for mental health and dental care,” Walker said.

“They are screened for conditions like hypertension and diabetes they don’t even realize they have because they didn’t have access to health care.”

The measurable results are impressive: In 2019, Upstate Fatherhood Coalition reported serving 968 participants, impacting 1,074 children. Through its efforts, participants were able to pay

$376,160 in child support, and taxpayers saved $2.81 million through its Jobs Not Jail program. No less important are the effects that cannot be measured — reduced conflict and instability, and closer family relationships.

The nonprofit’s holistic approach to keeping fathers connected also includes fun parent-child activities, and a family room where they can spend time together. Reading to children is encouraged.

“Everything we do is about parenting,” Walker said. “We give kids a second chance by putting fathers back in their lives in a positive way.”

Because education is such an important route to job security, Upstate Fatherhood Coalition plans to add courses providing a pathway to higher education. In anticipation of this added responsibility, Walker has nearly completed a master’s degree in business administration at Limestone College.

The Community Foundation of Greenville contributed toward his tuition, recognizing the importance of the nonprofit’s work and the promise of its future initiatives.

“Upstate Fatherhood is a unique organization that helps mothers and fathers es-

tablish and maintain loving relationships with their children even though they don’t live in the same home,” said Bob Morris, Community Foundation of Greenville president. “Oftentimes, a noncustodial parent needs employment assistance or record expungement to help them meet their financial obligations. This allows parents to be a positive presence as their children grow up. Giving parents these tools pays dividends across our community.”

Historic Greer Depot to be redeveloped n story by ANNA LEE | rendering by CLIFF MINOR

The historic Greer train depot is getting a $1 million facelift.

Officials with Western Carolina Railway Service Corporation made the announcement Thursday in a private rose garden outside the depot on Trade Street in downtown Greer.

Western Carolina Railway Service is a subsidiary of Letchworth Properties, the owner of the property.

The renovation will turn the first floor of the depot into a 3,500 square-foot event venue and meeting space with an available occupancy of just under 300 people, according to Steven Hawkins, president and CEO of Western Carolina Railway Service.

The venue will feature 20-foot ceilings, modern restrooms and a catering preparation area. The depot’s remaining space will house the offices of Western Carolina Railway Service and its subsidiaries. Local wine boutique LaBouteille has also made a long-term commitment as a tenant in the space, according to Hawkins.

Renovations aren’t limited to the interior. Outside, the depot’s roof will be

stripped down to the original 1913 lumber and painstakingly restored. The exterior trim, lights, windows and doors will also be restored to its original state, Hawkins said.

“You will clearly feel like you’ve stepped back in time,” he said.

Hawkins said the target opening date will be Jan. 1, 2021.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Greer Depot was constructed in 1913 as a two-story passenger station and one-story freight warehouse for Piedmont and Northern Railroad.

Clemson professor’s work on self-driving cars recognized n story by ANNA LEE | photo PROVIDED

Clemson University professor Yunyi Jia has been honored with one of the nation’s top honors for young engineering educators.

Jia was recognized Monday, Jan. 13 with the Ralph R. Teetor Education Award at the Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research campus in Greenville, according to a news release.

Jia is winning the award as self-driving cars start to make their way onto public roads and robots advance what experts call intelligent manufacturing. Both developments are increasing the demand for engineers, the release said.

“I am so honored to be recognized by my peers,” Jia said in the release. “Preparing the next generation of engineers to advance manufacturing and transportation is always a priority and big passion for me.”

The Teetor award recognizes and honors young educators who prepare individuals to meet the challenges that face society. It comes from SAE International, a global association of more than 128,000 engineers and technical experts in the aerospace, automotive and commercial-vehicle industries.

Jia, who joined Clemson in 2016, has been instrumental in expanding the University’s education and research in robotics and selfdriving cars, the release said.

Jia’s robot, YuMi, was also spotlighted during the ceremony.

A robot with artificial intelligence, YuMi is designed to help humans manufacture products.

Jia uses the robot to keep his students on the cutting edge of advanced manufacturing technology and has been working with his students to develop algorithms to make the robot smarter, according to school spokesman Paul Alongi.

He also directs the Collaborative Robotics and Automation Lab.

Greenville Triumph player Omar Mohamed named Somalia’s International Player of the Year n story by EVAN PETER SMITH | photo PROVIDED

ICEONMAIN.COM 12

GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM // JANUARY 17

Greenville Triumph midfielder Omar Mohamed received a warm welcome home earlier this month.

The member of the inaugural 2019 Triumph roster returned to his home nation of Somalia, where he was honored on Jan. 3 as the International Player of the Year by the Somali Football Federation.

“It means a lot to me and my family to receive this international recognition,” Mohamed said.

The recognition comes just a few months after Mohamed appeared on the Somalia national team’s roster back in September to participate in two World Cup qualifying matches. His international season featured numerous highlights, including a long-range goal against Burundi during the 2019 CECAFA Senior Challenge Cup and a breakaway goal in Somalia’s World Cup qualifying game against Zimbabwe.

Mohamed said he was grateful for the award, as well as the love from the Triumph community.

“I’m just blessed and thankful for this prestigious award,” he said, “and I appreciate the support Triumph fans have given me during international play.”

Mohamed will be back in Greenville for the 2020 season, which kicks off March 27 with a matchup against the Chattanooga Red Wolves at Legacy Early College Field on Woodside Avenue in Greenville.

St. Anthony's Father Pat Tuttle and Franciscan friars leaving Greenville n story by EVAN PETER SMITH | photo by WILL CROOKS

Fr. Pat Tuttle and the Franciscan friars will leave St. Anthony of Padua parish by this summer.

The announcement was made in a Jan. 3 letter from the Franciscan provincial minister Kevin Mullen, addressed to Tuttle and St. Anthony of Padua parishioners.

“Please know that this is not due to any failing or shortcoming on your part,” Mullen said in the letter. “Rather, when all is said and done, the motive for our departure comes down to two decisive factors having to do with the Franciscans: our declining numbers and fidelity to our Franciscan charism.”

Tuttle, more commonly known as “Father Pat,” has been assigned to St. Anthony’s since 2005 and became pastor in 2007. He is a prominent member of the Greenville community, easily recognized by his brown friars’ robes and known for his involvement in community outreach and charitable work.

The Franciscans — also known as the Order of Friars Minor — is a Catholic religious order dating back to 1209, the doctrine of which espouses vows of poverty, humility and itinerant lifestyles.

When all is said and done, the motive for our departure comes down to two decisive factors having to do with the Franciscans: our declining numbers and fidelity to our Franciscan charism..”

-Kevin Mullen, Franciscan provincial minister Despite their nomadic nature, the Franciscans have been a presence in Greenville for the past 81 years.

Mullen noted in the letter to the St. Anthony’s parish that the number of actively working Franciscan friars has been dwindling, down from 708 friars in 1985 to just 280 today.

“With our diminished numbers, it is impossible for us to maintain all of our current ministerial commitments while also maintaining fraternities composed of several friars living in community,” Mullen said. "We have been spread too thin for quite some time."

No announcement has yet been made as to Tuttle's successor.

The announcement of the Franciscan's departure from Greenville coincided with similar announcements in other parishes across the country, including St. Mary of the Angels Parish in Anderson, at which the Franciscans have been a presence for more than 77 years.

Besides those two parishes, the Franciscans will also be withdrawing friars from parishes in Colonie, New York; Athens, Georgia; New York City; Orlando, Florida; Raleigh, North Carolina; Wilmington, Delaware; and Wood-Ridge, New Jersey.

HISTORY

On the 75th anniversary of the Holocaust, Greenville residents tell their stories

n story by GEORGIA GAY | photos PROVIDED

The Holocaust is the story of how people who had been living peacefully for generations can be inspired and motivated by hate to murder.”

-Melinda Menzer, professor, Furman University This year marks the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau and the South Carolina Council on the Holocaust is acknowledging the milestone with International Holocaust Remembrance Day on Jan. 28.

With the help of the council, people like Greenville’s Trude Heller and Melinda Menzer, are sharing their stories about how they, or their families, were impacted by the Holocaust.

The commemoration of the anniversary will be held at the University of South Carolina’s Alumni Center in Columbia at 10:30 a.m. During the event, 6 million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and millions of other victims of Nazism will be honored.

Heller, wife of the late Max Heller, former Greenville mayor, said she fled to Greenville from Nazi-controlled Vienna, Austria, in 1942 when she was 15 years old.

Heller was born in 1922, and as an only child, was doted on by her parents.

Heller attended a nice school, danced from ages 3 to 11 and helped her family run the two shops they owned in Vienna, she said. But when she turned 15, her sur-

roundings suddenly changed.

She recalled that it was a Friday in 1938, and Austria was supposed to vote on whether or not the country would join the German side, or what is known as the Anschluss. That Sunday, Heller’s entire town was covered with swastikas in the span of an hour.

“I was going out to an exercising class for an hour and when I went in, there wasn’t one swastika to be seen,” Heller said. “When I came out, the whole city was swastikas.”

It all happened in an instant. Heller recounts stories of synagogues burned to the ground and police officers who were already in Nazi attire.

“From that day on, all me and my parents wanted to do was leave,” Heller said.

“They killed 80 of my family members.”

Heller said that her aunt, who lived in Poland, was forced to watch her three children be brutally murdered at the hands of Nazis. Events like this happened throughout Europe and parts of Russia, and demonstrated what it was like to be Jewish during WWII, she said.

Melinda Menzer, a Furman University professor, recounts her own story. In Jurburg, Lithuania during 1941, Nazis invaded. The Mincers, relatives to Menzer, were faced with four massacres that took place there.

“The Nazis rounded up the Jews and contained them,” Menzer said. “Over the next four months, four massacres would occur, with 300 men killed in the first, including the rabbi.”

The first massacre was the only one performed by the Germans.

“The other three were by other Lithuanians killing their neigh-

-Melinda Menzer, professor, Furman University bors,” Menzer said.

According to Menzer, the Lithuanians involved were Christians. They forced the Jewish population to tear down synagogues and burn books.

“They also forced the Jewish people that had survived to walk in a parade while people threw objects at them,” Menzer said.

Keeping these stories alive helps the council to educate South Carolina teachers, students and the general public about the Holocaust and helps everyone see the rel-

“The Holocaust is the story of how people who had been living peacefully for generations can be inspired and motivated by hate to murder,” Menzer said. “It is clear to me the relevance of what happened to my family in our lives today.”

HISTORIC PLACES

Cureton-Huff House — circa 1820 n story by KIMBERLY COLLIER | photo by BILL FITZPATRICK

John Moon Cureton, a prosperous farmer in the early 1800's in rural Greenville County, bought the land on which the Cureton-Huff house sits on Dec. 24, 1819.

Having the Cureton-Huff house built and completed around 1820, the home is an excellent example of the rural farmhouses of the time and region.

The house in particular is representative of the vernacular building modes, construction technology and limited stylistic awareness common to an upper-middle income farmer in a rural community. The house also retains noteworthy Federal stylistic elements in its woodwork. The plan of the house, originally a vernacular hall-and-parlor, was altered prior to the death of Cureton into a central hall plan. Both plans were common to the farmhouses of South Carolina in the antebellum era.

Some of the stylistic features throughout the home include the sunburst motifs and the reeding on the mantels in the hall and parlor as well as the chevron ornamentation along the cornices. Both of these stylistic additions were fashionable at the time of construction and are rep-

resentative of the Neoclassical ornamentation popular during the Federal period.

At the time of listing in the National Register of Historic Places, the interior of the home had only seen minimal changes, with some additions to the rear of the home for modernization.

Several outbuildings are also part of the National Historic Register listing and include a carriage house, blacksmith shop, several barns and animal pens, two corn cribs and a garage. Most of the outbuildings date front he early 20th century.

By the time of his death in 1845, Cureton, had accumulated a considerable estate. The property/estate was

valued at $28,441 and the inventory revealed significant information about the farming operations of the Cureton estate. Cureton owned seven horses, five mules, forty-eight hogs, eighteen sheep, two oxen and fifty-six head of cattle. The farm produced corn, cotton, wheat, peas and rye.

After the death of Cureton's wife, a caretaker lived in the home until 1865 when Cureton's granddaughter Jane Sullivan Huff and her husband Pascal Dacus Huff - moved into the home.

At the time of listing in the National Register of Historic Places, the home was still owned by the Cureton family with John Cureton's great-great-grandson - the fourth generation of the family - living in the home.

Listed in the National Register Jan. 13, 1983.

At the time of listing in the National Register, the home was still owned and occupied by descendants of John Moon Cureton

THE

COAT PROJECT

Eli Warren's biggest project is now available at M. Judson Booksellers A search on Etsy would render just the trench coat needed for Eli Warren’s latest photography project. “The Coat Project,” a series of 197 portraits spanning 74 people all wearing a vintage Christian Dior black trench coat, is now available in M. Judson Booksellers.

Warren is a fine art photographer based in Greenville with his studio in the Greenville Center for Creative Arts located at the West Village Lofts at Brandon Mill Apartment Homes.

The inspiration for the project came from a previous shoot of Warren’s.

“Last year, I randomly saw my friend wearing a big trench coat,” he said. “I asked him if he would come in for a shoot and it became one of the images I am known for.”

While his friend’s trench coat isn’t the one used in the book, it paved the

path for what would end up being tographed on film, but he quickly Warren’s creation. learned it was too time consuming.

The individuals in the book volunWhen people came in for the shoot, they teered for the shoot and were told to in- were expecting a boring trench coat, “but terpret the coat it’s not,” Warin their own ren said. “It is The Coat Project took unique way. “I really heavy wanted people with a lot of TO COMPLETE fabric and has to interpret the coat the way a ton of characthey wanted to,” to it.”

Warren said that, cause it has history now and was worn by originally, the project was to be pho- so many people.

“The coat aged through the project,” he said.

Throughout the project, which took three months to complete, over 8,000 images were taken. From there, it was narrowed down to 700 and about 199 images were used in the book.

“The Coat Project” is a self-published book, which Warren said was a challenge but having a background in graphic design helped. “This project made me feel like this is me and this is what I want to do.”

As Warren is figuring out his direction, he is currently working on an exhibit at the GCCA that will be on display next February. The exhibit will include enlarged images of people’s faces expressing loose depictions of darker emotions.

» JAN. 17-FEB. 2 | TIMES VARY » PELZER AUDITORIUM » $10-$12 MILLTOWNPLAYERS.ORG Mill Town Players will perform “Moonlight and Magnolias” in the Pelzer auditorium for the first time Jan. 17-Feb. 2. The play, directed

by Noah Taylor, gives the audience a behind-the-scenes look into 1939 Hollywood.

The play follows legendary producer David O. Selznick, who is the producer of “Gone with the Wind.” The film crew is five weeks into shooting when Selznick has a sudden epiphany.

The script is awful and the director seems unaware.

With only five days to start from scratch, Selznick, director Victor Fleming and writer Ben Hecht lock themselves in a room to rewrite the script.

The actors and creatives are very on board with this project and committed to make the most of the story.”

-Noah Taylor, director “This is all based on a somewhat-true story of the writing of the screenplay for ‘Gone with the Wind,'” Taylor said.

While subsisting on bananas and peanuts, Selznick, Fleming and Hecht begin to write the script from the book. “It is a

huge undertaking that proves to be comical and zanny,” Taylor said.

With a sense of heightened reality, the curtains are both metaphorically and literally pulled back to give the audience a glimpse into old Hollywood. Taylor said that his favorite aspect about the play is that it is kind of a love letter to movies from old Hollywood and old movie magic.

MILL TOWN PLAYERS MAKING THEIR DEBUT INCLUDE: CHRIS WHITE AND BRUCE NEAL “I believe this play will be a huge success,” Taylor said. “The actors and creatives are very on board with this project and committed to make the most of the story.”

MUSIC

The Black Market Trust brings its ‘gypsy-jazz’ sound to The Spinning Jenny n story by VINCENT HARRIS | photo PROVIDED

Every show that The Black Market Trust band plays is like walking a tightrope. The Los Angeles quintet combines propulsive, intricate jazz virtuosity on acoustic guitars, violin, upright bass and drums with robust, effervescent Beach Boys-style vocal harmonies, and it whips standards like “Fly Me To The Moon,” “Cheek To Cheek” and “You Make Me Feel So Young” into sweeping, multi-layered passion plays.

Onstage, the group is a surge of syncopated rhythms, dizzying harmonies and non-stop classic tunes. The technical term for what the group plays is “gypsy jazz.” Imagine the late, legendary jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt fronting the Gipsy Kings, and you’ll get the idea.

And because the band has to balance complex vocal harmonies with dazzling instrumental interplay, it can be a tough gig sometimes.

“It’s definitely a high-wire act,” says The Black Market Trust singer, lead guitarist and co-founder Jeffrey Radaich. “Especially when there’s the extra added kink of performing live. When you’re just playing guitar, you can have that energy and still be technically precise. But then you add singing in there and now you have to project emotion.”

The only solution, Radaich says, is to keep playing and singing.

I wanted to take this huge song and strip it all down where you can’t hide behind anything.

And it worked.”

-Jeffrey Radaich, guitarist & co-founder, The Black Market Trust “There’s a danger of maybe missing some notes here or there,” he says, “which isn’t the end of the world because sometimes people like to see that a little bit. I think people like to see the human aspect of things. And hopefully, we’re smooth enough that if we do hit a few wrong notes, nobody notices.”

What’s interesting is that when the band released its first album back in 2012, The Black Market Trust — performing at The Spinning Jenny in Greer on Sunday, Jan. 19 — didn’t have to worry about singing. It was an all-instrumental, no-vocals group that was actually a side project for all of the members.

THE BLACK MARKET TRUST » SUNDAY, JAN. 19 | 7PM » THE SPINNING JENNY » $12/ADVANCE | $16/ AT DOOR THESPINNINGJENNYGREER.COM “There were just three of us the time,” Radaich says, “and I think we just did (an album) because we were bored, and we wanted to make a record. We didn’t have any grand plans of it being a band or anything."

But after that album came out, Radaich and bassist Brian Netzley fell in love with the gypsy-jazz sound, and they both ended up playing in acclaimed guitarist Gonzalo Bergara’s band.

“We worked in Gonzalo’s band for six years,” Radaich says. “And that was a heavy gypsy-jazz instrumental act; it was really musician-y type music.”

As much as Radaich and Netzley loved Bergara’s music, though, the two musicians, who’d played together since high school, felt that they could form their own group and give gypsy jazz a little more oomph.

“For lack of a better word, I missed doing a show,” Radaich says, “like an oldschool rock show kind of sensibility. So, I figured we’ve got this Black Market Trust thing that we did, how about I just kind of build on that a little bit?"

The only question then was what kind of material the members would record for the first album with the new lineup, which came out in 2016.

“A lot of it was trial and error,” Radaich says. “But the first song we tracked for the album was ‘Fly Me to the Moon.’ And I remember listening to the Frank Sinatra-Count Basie version of the song, and I thought, ‘Well, wait a second; what if we did this song and we arranged it with these acoustic instruments? That might sound really cool.’ And it worked.”

The show sold out, and David Stone, the owner of Swanson’s, was so pleased that he and Dixon began planning future events together.

That’s where the idea for the first Songwriters Showcase Contest at Swanson’s began.

“David and I had been trying to put on some shows together at Swanson’s,” Dixon says, “and one of the ideas I had was basically bringing together a bunch of songwriters in a competition format, but doing it all in a one-day, one-show kind of thing. And basically, the audience admission is the prize money. We just thought it’d be a fun event to put together and we decided to give it a try.”

Luckily, in addition to being an experienced musician with multiple releases to his credit, Dixon has also done extensive work behind the scenes in the Upstate music community, hosting open-mic nights at Smiley’s Acoustic Café and the now-closed Moe Joe Coffee in downtown Greenville.

I just really like the songwriting community in Greenville and I like trying to give them a platform.”

-Brooks Dixon, Upstate singer/songwriter

Dixon had recently stopped hosting an open-mic night at Smiley’s after a couple of years to work on his own music, but he missed the experience of giving local musicians a chance to shine, whether they were professionals or amateurs. He thought a similar open-mic concept could work at Swanson’s, as well, with prize money as an added incentive.

“I just really like the songwriting community in Greenville,” he says, “and I like trying to give them a platform. I’ve always been a sucker for someone just playing an acoustic guitar and singing, and really getting to see what their songs are all about at their core. I think Greenville has a wealth of people that perform profes-

The first Songwriter Showcase Contest will start at 6 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 19, and Dixon says that 10 performers have already signed up for one of the 30 slots he has available. The performers will be able to play either one or two songs depending on how full the lineup is, and at the end of the night, there will actually be two prizes awarded.

“The plan is basically that everyone will perform their songs, and then you have two different winners,” Dixon says. “There will be an audience vote, and then we’ll also have just a songwriter vote from the contestants. So two separate winners will come away from the night with prizes, and hopefully they’ll make some friends and some connections.”

The “connections” part is important to Dixon because as a singer-songwriter, he’s benefitted from the networking he’s been able to do at open-mic-style events.

“I met most of my bandmates at the old Moe Joe‘s open mic,” he says, “and we’ve been together now almost five years. So I think those sorts of connections are very special. I also think of the people that I met as an open-mic host that had just moved to Greenville and started playing music. They were really just looking for friends or some sort of family, if you will, and they found that. And now, they’re doing shows of their own, and they’re very supportive of the local scene. So I think events like this are just a cool thing, and something I feel like I’ve benefited from, so I hope that I can pay it forward.”

PAUL'S PICK

With 100 musicians on stage, Wroclaw Philharmonic brings Polish, Czech music to the Peace Center PAUL HYDE Contributor

Igor Stravinsky’s

n photo PROVIDED

More than 100 musicians will be on stage as the Wroclaw Philharmonic returns to the Peace Center with a program of Polish and Czech music, including Dvorak’s ever-popular Ninth Symphony.

“Being a Polish orchestra, we want to showcase some of the great composers from this part of the world,” said Giancarlo Guerrero, the orchestra’s music director who’ll be on the podium.

Guerrero, probably best known as music director for the past 11 years of the Nashville Symphony, is leading the Wroclaw (VRA-Slav) Philharmonic on a 12-city American tour.

The orchestra hails from the city in western Poland that in 2016 was named a European Capital of Culture. Wroclaw is home to the National Forum of Music, a sprawling performing arts complex built in 2015.

“It has really put the city on the cultural map,” said Guerrero, speaking on the phone from Wroclaw during a break from rehearsing for the tour. “We want to export some of what is happening here.”

The six-time Grammy Award-winning Guerrero, in addition to his duties in Nashville, has served for the past three years as music director of, to use the orchestra’s full name, the National Forum of Music Wroclaw Philharmonic.

The orchestra visited the Peace Center several years ago in a concert that featured Dvorak’s Seventh Symphony.

POLISH AND CZECH MUSIC

Two Polish composers — Karol Szymanowski and Witold Lutoslawski — will be spotlighted in the first half of the Sunday, Jan. 19 concert at the

NATIONAL FORUM OF MUSIC WROCLAW PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA » SUNDAY, JAN. 19 | 3PM » PEACE CENTER » 15 PEACECENTER.ORG

and other Russian classical hits, including Rimsky-Korsakov’s Capriccio espagnol.

Peace Center.

The performance opens with Szymanowski’s sweepingly romantic “Concert Overture,” dating from 1904-05.

“Szymanowski was definitely the greatest and most recognizable Polish composer after Chopin,” Guerrero said.

Lutoslawski’s “Concerto for Orchestra,” meanwhile, is an enormously challenging work composed in 1950-54.

“It’s a blockbuster, a really captivating piece that showcases the virtuosity of the Wroclaw Philharmonic,” Guerrero said. “It really pushes the envelope.”

The concert concludes with Dvorak’s Ninth Symphony, one of the most popular pieces in the standard orchestral repertoire.

Subtitled “From the New World,” the symphony was inspired by the Czech composer’s sojourn in America, 1892-95. Dvorak was influenced by the American spirituals and Native American melodies he heard in this country.

“In many ways, it was the first great American symphony,” Guerrero said.

PERIPATETIC CONDUCTOR

The peripatetic conductor Guerrero doesn’t speak Polish but communicates with the Wroclaw orchestra in English, French and German.

“Sometimes all I can do is resort to telepathy and bodily motions to explain,” he said with a laugh. “And, of course, we all speak the language of music.”

Guerrero not only conducts regularly in Nashville and Wroclaw but also in cities in Australia and South America, though his permanent home is in Nashville, where he lives with his wife and two daughters.

“That is the life of the traveling maestro,” Guerrero said. “It takes a lot of balancing, but I couldn’t imagine doing anything different. I’m immensely lucky that I get to make music for a living with great orchestras.”

Mextizo is within walking distance of Quest Brewing Company

MEXTIZO TORTAS & TACOS 601 HAYWOOD RD, GREENVILLE San Francisco has quite the list of “claims to fame.” But if we’re talking food, let’s get really local in the Mission District’s old-school taquerias. That’s where you’ll find some of the best authentic Latin street food in the country.

You won’t have to go that far, though, to get a taste of pierna (spicy pork) tacos or a chile verde burrito. Within walking distance from Quest Brewing is the newest venture from the owners of the well-established Las Meras Tortas. Fresh salsas, savory meats, and house-made sopes are highlights, and don’t go for the pollo or asada you always do. Take the opportunity to branch out and try the pork in all its various preparations.

MEXTIZO IS A CASUAL MEXICAN SANDWICH SHOP THAT SPECIALIZES IN TORTAS, STREET TACOS, QUESADILLAS AND MORE

RECOMMENDED DISHES: Tortas ......................................$8.50

La Mexicana (grilled steak, ham, pineapple and cheese) Cubana (ham spicy pork, hot dog and omelette)

Gather GVL, Greenville’s first open-air food hall, weeks away from opening

n story and photos by JESSICA MULLEN

Above: Mack Cross and Doug Cross are the co-founders of Four Oaks Property Group.

Gather GVL is the group’s first project.

With six repurposed shipping containers and 13 local restauranteurs, the fatherson duo of Doug and Mack Cross hope to create a communal space in downtown Greenville. After two years of hard work, Mack Cross says the anticipated openair food hall is “weeks, not months” away from opening.

“We made some mistakes along the way, and learned some hard lessons.

We’ve had to overcome a lot to get to this point. It’s been the hardest thing I’ve ever done,” says Mack, the younger Cross and co-founder of Four Oaks Property Group.

“Getting to this point, we’re starting to see the rewards a little bit.”

I saw business meetings. I saw tons of strollers, dogs and all walks of life there enjoying themselves. I thought to myself, this is a cool concept. Let’s do it in Greenville.”

-Mack Cross, co-founder, Four Oaks Property Group The property at 126 Augusta St. was formerly a construction dumping zone, according to Cross. He purchased six repurposed shipping containers from a company called SG Blocks in Houston. Before finding a permanent home at Gather GVL, they were single-use containers.

GREENVILLEJOURNAL.COM // JANUARY 17

Cross got the idea for an open-air food venue in 2017 while visiting a similar concept in Long Beach, California, called SteelCraft.

“While I was there for lunch and dinner on a Sunday, I saw a 2-year-old’s birthday party,” he recalls. “I saw business meetings. I saw tons of strollers, dogs and all walks of life there enjoying themselves. I thought to myself, this is a cool concept.

Let’s do it in Greenville.”

For Cross, Gather GVL fulfills Greenville’s need for a family-friendly eatery.

“My wife and I are millennials; we enjoy going out and having experiences. Just because we have kids now doesn’t mean we want to stop going out and having fun.

There just aren’t that many places where you can get quality food, where it’s affordable, where you can take kids and not feel like you’re disturbing other people there.”

Gather GVL is intentionally designed to encourage relationships, from its communal dining tables to its art-expression wall. Cross plans to use the stage for showing football games or hosting local musicians.

“In this day and age, with everything being so digital, we’re all attached to our screens,” he says. “Having a real-life, sensory experience with smells and sights and sounds, you get all of that here. And that’s been the vision from day one.”

In addition to sustainability and community Cross says he wants to support other local entrepreneurs by using Gather GVL to offer a more-affordable way for local, independent restaurateurs to open businesses.
