HOMELESSNESS

Chronic homelessness is used to describe people who have experienced homelessness for at least a year — or repeatedly — while struggling with a disabling condition such as a serious mental illness, substance use disorder, or physical disability.

Homelessness at Home Today, you would never guess it, but Dennis Jeter, a 53-year old real estate professional, spent almost a quarter of his life homeless. Jeter’s struggle with substance addiction and, subsequently, an inability to keep steady work landed him on the streets of New York City, and then, eventually, Greenville. He credits the support from a new marriage and a local church for helping him break the cycle. He is visibly emotional when he speaks with gratitude about his success and many blessings, including the home he and his wife now own.

“Homelessness is not who you are, but just where you are,”

says Lorain Crowl, executive director of United Housing Connections (UHC). “There are so many circumstances that, if you don’t have a support system around you, anyone can find themselves homeless.” In fact, statistics show that those at risk of or currently experiencing homelessness are people of any age, gender, race, education level, and socio-economic status.

According to UHC, an estimated 4,000 homeless people live in South Carolina. About 18% of those individuals struggle with chronic homelessness — experiencing long-term or repeated homelessness — often due to serious mental or physical health issues. Some of the highest concentrations in the state are in the Greenville area. More than 180 Upstate residents are chronically homeless, and over half of those are located in Greenville County alone.

NEED TO KNOW

Why is there chronic homelessness?

south carolina

Many individuals are able to access community resources and personal support systems and make their way out of a temporary homeless situation.

“Yet, for some, finding a home is only the beginning,” Crowl says, “particularly with the most vulnerable in our community, with whom challenges — such as domestic violence, mental or physical disabilities, substance abuse, and post-traumatic stress — make sustaining housing impossible.”

Crowl explains that housing is the critical first step, but providing ongoing case management to connect individuals to benefits and community resources is key to keeping people off the streets.

Permanent Supportive Housing as Part of the Solution Nationally, the best-practices model for addressing chronic homelessness is Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH). PSH is a “Housing First” approach that sees housing as the basic foundation for life improvement. Unlike other programs, it does not mandate participation in services or require people to address problems such as unemployment, addiction, or health issues before they may access housing.

United Housing Connections is the lead agency for the Upstate Continuum of Care, a collaborative of over 80 service providers, as well as individuals, that organize and deliver services to address homelessness in the 13-county region.

UHC also is the key builder and manager of Permanent Supportive Housing in the Upstate. Crowl says: “It’s providing housing without barriers. It’s taking someone, To be built at the literally, off the streets, and giving them a corner of Kerns home, and then providing the support serAvenue & Church Street in the vices to help them be upwardly mobile.”

Poe Mill Community Crowl says the Housing First/PSH model is proving successful in Greenville, with many stories of individuals getting the help they need to improve their lives and engage positively within the community. Also, since taxpayers often foot the bill for frequent emergency room and detention visits associated with chronic homelessness, there are significant savings to the public. Based on a study of one of UHC’s facilities built in 2006 — Reedy Place — when someone becomes a resident, the annual cost to taxpayers drops from $19,000 to $1,600 per PSH resident, a 92% decrease within two years.

A household needs to earn at least $60,000 annually to be able to afford housing in the City of Greenville, according to a study the city commissioned in 2016. For many, that’s not an option. Someone who makes minimum wage and works 40 hours per week earns $15,080 annually. The rising housing costs and stagnating minimum wage are just a couple of factors contributing to Greenville’s shortterm and chronically homeless population.

JOYCE WILLIAMS Joyce Williams has medical issues that make it harder for her to hold down a permanent job.

For a few years, she jumped from home to home before she found out about a program through St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church that gave her a place of her own to rent at a lower cost.

CONNIE ADAMS

For about three years, Connie Adams was homeless. She had a job with a maid service, but even between Adams and her boyfriend, they couldn’t afford a place to live until two years ago, when she was diagnosed with throat cancer. Now, Adams receives a disability check that helps her pay for housing through a program with St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church. The cancer took her ability to speak, but at least now she can afford rent.

The SEARCHlight Intiative In early 2018, a group of about 20 senior citizens founded The SEARCHlight Initiative to help create solutions for Greenville’s homeless population.

The initiative evolved out of a class at Furman University’s Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), organized by retiree Jim Carroll, with the help of local experts, to educate members on the homeless crisis in Greenville.

He says: “We talked about homelessness. We talked about Permanent Supportive Housing, and Housing First ... and out of that, we were rewarded with excellent people that wanted to get involved.”

Carroll says the level of volunteerism on the Church Street Place project is exciting, with many retirees donating their time and skills to the project. And

Carroll says it’s not just seniors involved. “We now have working people who are volunteering their time, which I think is even more impressive.”

One such volunteer is Carroll’s neighbor — Dennis Jeter. Jeter is no longer on the streets, but he has a passion for helping those who are. He’s helped where he could — ministering and providing clothing and haircuts.

Yet, Jeter longed to be part of a bigger solution. He says the Church Street Place project is a perfect fit for those caught in the cycle of chronic homelessness. “Having a home makes you feel like you’re human, like you are a person. Makes you feel normal. So, that emotionally helps you move forward. …

When you don’t have that foundation, you are still in survival mode. You are still trying to find your way. I’ve been there. It makes it harder.”

SPREADING AWARENESS

High schooler serves as youth ambassador for Tourette syndrome n story by ARIEL GILREATH | photos by WILL CROOKS

When Nick Venuto was about 5 years old, his parents sent him to an eye doctor for repetitively rolling his eyes, but they couldn’t find anything wrong. Soon after, he started clearing his throat nonstop, so they sent him to an allergist.

It took nearly two years, but eventually, they figured out what the problem was — Nick had Tourette syndrome.

“Once my husband researched it, he came to me and he said, ‘I think he has Tourette syndrome,’ and I said, ‘No, that’s the cursing disease,’” said Claudine Venuto, Nick’s mom. “That’s all I knew about it.”

About one in 100 school-aged children have Tourette syndrome or a milder tic disorder, and fewer than 10% of those diagnosed with the syndrome spontaneously curse. Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder consisting of involuntary, repetitive movements and sounds such as blinking, whistling, shrugging, and spontaneous vocal tics. Often, the syndrome is accompanied by co-occurring conditions — such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

“There’s not a lot of medicine that really controls it, [but] it was a relief just to have a name to it,” Claudine said. “Just knowing that this is what it is and there are other people who have it.”

Since March, Nick has been serving as a youth ambassador for the Tourette Association of America — he’s visited Sen. Lindsey Graham’s office in Washington, D.C., and spoken to students at Buena Vista Elementary School about what life is like with Tourette syndrome. On June 4, he met with Greenville Mayor Knox White, who signed a proclamation naming it Tourette Syndrome Awareness Day. Youth ambassadors attend an annual conference in D.C. where children from across the United States with Tourette syndrome meet up. It was there Claudine discovered that many people with Tourette syndrome or a tic disorder never get diagnosed.

“I met parents there who were diagnosed when their kids were diagnosed,” Claudine said.

J U N E 14 / / G R E E N V I L L E J O U R N A L . C O M

Tourette syndrome is hereditary, but the National Institutes of Health’s Genetics Home Reference says developing the syndrome likely depends on a variety of genetic and environmental factors.

Nick, who will be a sophomore at GREEN Charter School of Greenville next year, has had the advantage of knowing his diagnosis for half his life now. But before he became a youth ambassador this year, he almost never brought it up.

“It’s difficult being in school and having tics in the middle of class when I’m trying to learn stuff, especially during tests, because I’m usually timed on those tests, and my tics take up a lot of that time and distract me,” Nick said. “People who don’t understand — if they ask me about it, I tell them. But it’s difficult because some people make fun of me for it, even though they don’t know exactly what it is.”

Claudine said they never told Nick’s teachers because they were worried he would be put in special education classes.

Even though Nick sometimes struggles completing his tests on time, he’s enrolled in honors classes and makes all A’s and B’s on his report cards.

“We never really said anything to the school until this past year,” Claudine said.

Often, Nick can suppress his tics until he gets home from school, but it’s uncomfortable — like competing in a staring contest or resisting the urge to scratch a mosquito bite.

“If you have a mosquito bite, you don’t scratch it, don’t scratch it, don’t scratch it, but then eventually, you just have to scratch it,” Nick said. “That’s kind of what it is by holding in tics.”

But not everyone can suppress them.

More than 10,800 South Carolina children have Tourette syndrome or a similar tic disorder, according to the Tourette Association of America. Claudine and Nick hope they can help prevent bullying and spread awareness by talking about their experiences. Nick said his own newfound confidence sprang from meeting others with Tourette syndrome at the association’s annual conference.

“I feel a lot more comfortable talking to people about it. Before [the annual conference], if someone asked me, ‘Why are you doing that?’ I would just be like, ‘I don’t know,’ and probably change the subject. But now, I use it as an opportunity to teach and educate them about it,” Nick said. “It’s good when you go there, seeing everyone else who has Tourette syndrome, and you feel like you’re not the only one.”

AIRLESS PROTOTYPE TIRE Michelin unveils airless prototype tire at Movin’On Summit n story by ARIEL TURNER | photo PROVIDED

Michelin and General Motors recently unveiled a new generation of airless wheel technology for passenger vehicles — the Michelin Uptis Prototype (or “Unique Puncture-proof Tire System”) — at the Movin’On Summit for sustainable mobility.

“Uptis demonstrates that Michelin’s vision for a future of sustainable mobility is clearly an achievable dream,” said Florent Menegaux, chief executive officer for Michelin Group. “Through work with strategic partners like GM, who share our ambitions for transforming mobility, we can seize the future today.”

Michelin North America, headquartered in Greenville, and GM also announced a joint research agreement under which the companies intend to validate the Uptis Prototype with the goal of introducing Uptis on passenger models as early as 2024.

Because Uptis is airless, the breakthrough wheel assembly eliminates the risk of flat tires and blowouts: • Drivers of passenger vehicles feel safer on the road.

• Operators of passenger vehicle fleets minimize downtime and improve efficiency resulting from flat tires and near-zero levels of maintenance.

• Society at large benefits from environmental savings through reduced use of raw materials for replacement tire or spare tire production.

The Uptis Prototype represents a major advancement toward achieving Michelin’s VISION concept, which was presented at the Movin’On Summit in 2017 as an illustration of Michelin’s strategy for research

and development in sustainable mobility. The VISION concept introduced four main pillars of innovation: airless, connected, 3D-printed, and 100% sustainable (entirely renewable or bio-sourced materials).

The Uptis Prototype will demand nearzero maintenance to continue operating.

Using an airless tire has the potential to result in environmental savings: Approximately 200 million tires worldwide are scrapped prematurely every year as a result of punctures, damage from road hazards, or improper air pressure that causes uneven wear. That's approximately 200 million tons of additional raw materials, weighing as much as 200 Eiffel Towers, eliminated, said Eric Vinesse, executive vice president, research and development, Group Michelin.

The partnership with GM, which recently named Michelin as one of their top providers out of 20,000, is in line with the company's zero crashes, zero emissions, and zero congestion vision, said Steve Kiefer, General Motors’ senior vice president, global purchasing and supply chain.

He said the Uptis could have a significant impact on reducing crashes, emissions, congestion, calling it a great example of a partnership with new technology that will change the industry.

“General Motors is excited about the possibilities that Uptis presents, and we are thrilled to collaborate with Michelin on this breakthrough technology,” Kiefer said. “Uptis is an ideal fit for propelling the automotive industry into the future and a great example of how our customers benefit when we collaborate and innovate with our supplier partners.”

Home Tips It’s 100 degrees outside and you find your air conditioner covered in ice. How do you fix this problem? The first thing you need to know is why your air conditioner stopped working correctly in the first place. The two most common reasons are low refrigerant or restricted air flow from a dirty air filter. As soon as you realize your AC is frozen, turn it off so it can defrost. Check your air filter and if it is dirty, replace it with a clean one.

If it’s not the filter, then you will need a professional to check the refrigerant levels in your system to see if there is a leak which will need to be repaired.

Surviving in the wilderness is both a physical and a mental game. But, if you want to learn anything survival-related — from how to tie a knot and build a fire to how to procure water and build shelters — the Upstate’s Trail Blazer Survival School can teach you just that.

Outdoor expert and instructor Tyler Weathers says Trail Blazer teaches valuable safety and survival skills in an atmosphere that’s welcoming to everyone.

“If you look up a lot of survival schools around, it’s going to be these burly old mountain men or it’s going to be paramilitary people that you feel like you’re in boot camp,” Weathers says.

But at Trail Blazer, parents and kids can receive basic and advanced training.

Survival training encompasses how to build a shelter, how to get water, how to build a fire, and how to get food.

With over 30 acres in Union next to the Sumter National Forest, the school offers hands-on learning with lots of trails, camping areas, and a pond.

TOP 3 SKILLS TO SURVIVE 1 Sheltering skills 2 Water skills 3 Fire skills Throughout the summer, kids ages 10 to 14 can attend nine different day camps. Some summer camp themes include hiking, fishing, Minecraft, backpacking, and archery.

“During the school year, we offer wilderness survival training for older teens all the way up to adults,” Weathers says. “We have beginner classes that basically are just for how to survive a 72-hour emergency.”

NEED TO KNOW

Then, self-sufficiency skills are taught in the harder courses. Students are allowed to have only camping gear.

“In our advanced course, we try to teach everything you do — every tool you use, you’ve created yourself just off the land,” he says. “[You’re] living primitively and how our ancient ancestors might’ve lived.”

The main mission of Trail Blazer is to train people how to safely enjoy and appreciate nature.

“One of the big things people do incorrectly is they don’t stop,” he says. “We have an acronym. It’s Stop, Think, Observe, Plan.”

As soon as you step off the trail or lose your way, Weathers says remaining calm is essential.

Trail Blazer wants to make the outdoors fun for kids and adults alike. “We grew up catching bugs and just really just always being outside,” Weathers says.

Weathers’ wife, Roxane, also spent much of her childhood playing in creeks and building forts. Now, she works alongside her husband as the operations manager.

“The wilderness is a big giant place,” she says. “[We want to] offer some appreciation of how awesome it is but also how dangerous it could potentially be if you’re not at least basically trained.”

While anyone can learn the skills taught at Trail Blazer, a certain dedication is required, so students should come ready to learn.

“We’re not trying to prep for the end of the world,” Roxane says with a laugh. “We’re just trying to make sure people have basic skills all the way up to primitive skills. It just depends on your level of dedication. So, anybody can do it.”

OBITUARIES & memorials JAMES THOMAS “TOMMY” ETHRIDGE, JR. July 16, 1948 ~ June 3, 2019

GREENVILLE – James Thomas “Tommy” Ethridge Jr., husband of Laurie Campbell Ethridge, died from cancer Monday, June 3, 2019.

He was born in Greenville on July 16, 1948, and was the son of Eleanor Mackey Ethridge and James Thomas Ethridge.

Tommy attended Greenville High School, class of

’66, and was a proud graduate of The Citadel. His career in engineering led him to many inter­e sting projects and experiences. Projects included paper mills, pharmaceu­t ical companies, even a gold mine in the Andes Mountains. His favorite assignment by far was the year he spent in Australia. His career also led to the opportunity to eat raccoon with one of the men who worked at Ethridge Construction Co. In addition to his wife, Tommy is survived by his four children, Adrian Ethridge Moore, Jessica Ethridge, Kathryn Ethridge, and Trip Ethridge. He was so proud of all four of them, well at least three. He is also survived by his brother, Alan Mackey Ethridge (whose behavior and attire made Tommy constantly shake his head); his sister-in-law, Dr. Debbie Campbell Price, a constant source of support during Tommy’s illness; his brotherin-law, Sam Campbell; and his father-in-law, Raymond Campbell, who often was his partner in crime.

Tommy enjoyed being involved in his children’s activities, and managed to put in many volunteer hours, despite his travels. There was a year that he would drive straight from the airport to Sara Collins Elementary School to make copies on the purple mimeograph machine. He worked the press box at Greenville Little League with Dr. John Vann. In addition to their sports commentary, they would try to pressure the opposing team to buy raffle tickets for the chance to win a Betty Boop clock or an inflatable deer head suitable for mounting. Thank goodness nobody ever won, as neither John nor Tommy had these items. Interestingly, Tommy seemed to always be out of town on Thursdays during the summer. Could Gower swim

meets have anything to do with that?

One of Tommy’s proudest community accomplishments was beating Billy Goldsmith in the “Little Miss Parkins Lake” pageant: proof that black velvet trumps pink polyester anytime.

Tommy hated to get dressed and go to weddings and funerals. He used to hate weddings the most but may have recently changed his mind. Being the friend that he is, he wanted to spare folks the pain of dressing up and sitting through a service, so a private memorial was held Tuesday, June 4, 2019.

Tommy and his mother-in-law, Shirley Campbell, had a friendly competi­tion. They both are, or will be, in the garth at the Church of the Redeemer. Tommy agreed to that arrangement, as long as he wasn’t buried beside her. Of course, Shirley had to outdo Tommy and beat him there.

In addition to Adrian, Jessica, Kathryn, and Trip, Tommy became a father late in life to his favorite child, “Stinky,” his Chihuahua. He would take “Stinky Spins” every day just so Stinky could see all those poor little doggies that have to walk on a leash while he drives in his car. Any money that you may have saved from not going to the barber or dry cleaners would certainly be welcomed at Greenville County Animal Care, 328 Furman Hall Road, Green­ ville, S.C. 29609. Better yet, make your life as happy as Tommy’s and go by there and adopt a Chihuahua.

They have plenty!

FOREST KITCHEN DESIGN STUDIO

Anybody who knows someone who has remodeled a kitchen in the last five years knows that white kitchens are THE THING. Various shades of white on shaker and shakerlike door styles have enjoyed immense popularity for years, and national cabinetry manufacturers’ data show that there are no signs of white kitchens stopping.

White kitchens have always been a classic look for our remodeling and new construction clients, but please consider one thing – the finish is everything. Local shops can build a cabinet to last, but is the finish produced by sophisticated multimillion-dollar machinery, or applied as a simple spray without a whole lot of future in mind for the life of the kitchen? Remember, wood is a natural, “living” material that constantly expands and contracts. The finish surrounding it needs to be a durable encasement, a complex chemistry perfectly formulated to flex with these natural movements, and meant for a lifetime of wear and tear.

“

A random tax-return purchase led Eli Warren to find a full-time job and lifelong hobby.

Years ago, Warren bought a camera on a whim after some convincing from a friend. Now, he works out of his studio in the Greenville Center for Creative Arts as a commercial, editorial, and fine-art photographer.

“I didn’t know the first thing about cameras,” he says. “Like I didn’t know anything, but it just sort of resonated as soon as I got it.”

Although drawn to art all his life, Warren never found a medium that fit him — until he gave photography a shot. “I slowly started reading every book I could and learning,” Warren says.

Primarily a self-taught photographer with the exception of a darkroom class, Warren enjoys the variety his work brings.

“For paid work, I like that it’s so varied and everybody’s different. Every shoot is a different challenge,” he says.

“But for my personal work, I like being able to use it to express how I feel.”

Warren considers his personal work somewhat of a visual journal. “I think if you look over the years at my photos

you can see kind of what mindset I was in,” he says.

Mostly shooting portraits, Warren enjoys the challenge of working with people.

“I’m really introverted and I feel like I have a hard time connecting with people,” he says. “I feel like it’s my way of bridging that gap and learning about people and challenging myself to make it work.”

How he shoots his personal work differs from his paid work. “I’m shooting on probably a 50-year-old 4-by-5 view camera that shoots these big sheets of film,” he says.

While shooting up to 300 frames on digital, Warren limits himself to only 10 frames with the view camera.

“Ten takes a while because it’s a really slow process,” he says. “It’s been nice because it just slows me down and I think out each image.”

Now, Warren shoots all personal work on the view camera. “I needed something that was mine,” he says. “I just connected to it really fast after I did it. I just wanted something that was me.”

Loving the hands-on process and the large film’s natural depth, Warren develops the film in a way that adds an extra grainy quality. “All my work is supposed to be imperfect and gritty, so I think it helps with that.”

Warren’s current personal project aims to evoke certain emotions without explicitly showing them. “It’s supposed to be about different challenges,” he says. “Lately, I’ve been trying to show people how that feels.”

Warren is working to launch his personal photography as a business. But for now, you can see his work at eliwarren.com and on Instagram @eliwarrenphoto.

A SOUTHERN TWIST

‘Romeo and Juliet’ takes Southern twist to national competition story by MELODY CUENCA | photo by SAMANTHA TAYLOR

Mill Town Players’ unique Southern spin on Shakespeare’s romantic tragedy “Romeo and Juliet” will compete at the American Association of Community Theatre National Festival in Pennsylvania on June 21.

Executive artistic director Will Ragland says this will be the first time a team from South Carolina has competed at nationals since 1985. With Mill Town Players being only five years old, Ragland says that to compete at nationals is rare.

After winning at both the state Community Theatre Festival and the Southeastern Theatre Conference, the theater company is giving local audiences one last chance to see the show on June 19.

Set in a time inspired by the HatfieldMcCoy feud, this version of “Romeo and Juliet” delivers Southern twang, bluegrass, moonshiners, and ax fights — while not sacrificing the Shakespearean language and epic love story.

“It’s something [audiences] know in a way they’ve never seen it before,” Ragland says.

When developing this concept for the play, he wanted to make Shakespeare interesting and accessible for everyone.

“People don’t realize that those plays were not meant to be read in English

classes; they were meant to be performed and seen and experienced by all classes of society,” he says.

Ragland says applying a thick Southern Appalachian dialect to the original Old English text definitely makes “Romeo and Juliet” more accessible to those who have an ear for Southern accents.

“We didn’t change the words, we just changed how we said them,” Ragland says.

Mill Town Players’ “Romeo and Juliet” lasts only an hour due to competition guidelines, so some unnecessary text was cut.

Playing Romeo, Greg Middleton says he has big shoes to fill.

“There’s a lot of emotional rollercoastering that my character goes through — from being elated that I’m getting to marry Juliet to, spoiler alert, finding out she’s ‘dead’ and then doing the same upon myself,” Middleton says.

“There’s a lot of emotional wavelength going on with my character.”

Middleton says the polarization of the two families pitted against one another brings an important message. The Capulets and the Montagues share a tension that spirals out of control, leading to unreasonable hatred and deaths, but later

make peace.

“The idea of — we can’t let these stupid rivalries take over our lives and cause pain upon others, love each other, take care of each other, have respect for each other — I think that’s the greatest theme of the play,” he says.

Kat Bates plays the passionate, young Juliet. “She’s falling in love for the first time, and she thinks that’s her whole world,” Bates says. “I think she’s a very innocent character.”

Juliet remains the same layered, complex girl she’s always been. “She’s experiencing a lot of new in a short amount of time, and that’s why she makes such rash decisions like faking her death,” Bates says.

Inspiring tragedy ‘Jane the Quene’ shares power of principles

‘Jane the Quene’ JUNE 21, 7 PM

The Logos Theatre | $10 W W W. T H E L O G O S T H E AT R E . C O M

n story by MELODY CUENCA | photo by WILL CROOKS

Known as the “Nine Days Queen,�

Lady Jane Grey has gone down in history as the 16-year-old queen of England with the shortest reign. Used as a pawn in a game much bigger than herself, Jane faced her execution with honor.

The Logos Theatre retells the tragic yet inspiring story of Jane’s nine-day reign in “Jane the Quene� for one local performance only. Afterward, the theater’s Academy of Arts will take the show all over the country to produce with high school students as a theater camp.

Co-writer Abigail Pierce wants audiences to feel inspired and encouraged by Jane’s life. “Yes, she did die at the end, but she lived according to her principles,� Pierce says. “If you really just look at her life and who she was as a person, there’s no one else that you would really want to emulate.�

Pierce describes Jane as intelligent, thoughtful, and kind — a young girl with no desire for the crown, and who was used by those around her in a plot to keep a Catholic from taking the throne.

Although Jane, a devout Protestant, could have recanted her faith to avoid the death penalty placed on her by Mary Tudor, she chose to stand for her personal beliefs, says co-writer and director

Nicole Stratton.

According to Stratton, a willingness to live and die for principles, just as Jane did, is the play’s main theme. “What we’ve tried to do is stay very historically accurate and unbiased,� she says. “We’re not trying to pit one of the religions against the other.�

While Jane’s story took place nearly 500 years ago, its lessons can still be applied today, Stratton says. “Even as young people, sometimes your situations are outside of your control, but how you respond to those situations is really important,� she says.

Staying true to personal beliefs, remaining humble, and living with integrity are ways people today can make a difference, she says. “Here’s a woman who is not only intelligent and articulate and able to stand with her principles, she’s also full of grace, kind, loving, and merciful,� Stratton says. “Her powerful living is what changes the people around her and really impacts them.�

Following The Logos Theatre’s recent Narnia production “The Horse and His Boy,� which was full of spectacle as well as story, “Jane the Quene� is more character-driven. “It’s a lot of really great storytelling,� Stratton says.

U P S TAT E B E AT

Remembering Dr. John (1941-2019) It is Thursday, June 13, 2002, around 9 p.m. I’m standing in the sound booth at the back of The Handlebar on Stone Avenue, looking out at a crowd of about 500 people. We are all waiting on Mac Rebennack, aka Dr. John Creaux, the Night Tripper, to walk onstage.

It has been, to say the least, a trying day.

I’m in my second year of working in the office at The Handlebar, and one of my jobs is to handle backstage arrangements for the bands and to provide “backline,” meaning the instruments the bands need for their shows but are too heavy or expensive to take on tour with them.

My day has been spent and trying to haul a massive, rickety Hammond B-3 organ from an instrument shop in Easley into downtown Greenville on a trailer hooked to the back of a 1993 Hyundai Excel. It’s hot, the sound and lighting are not to the band’s liking, and the damned Hammond organ isn’t working.

In short, none of it has been easy, and despite my love of Dr. John’s music all I’m thinking about is sneaking out after a couple of songs and going home.

The band starts up a swaggering, lopsided, midtempo groove, not unlike a stylish drunk

trying to walk down a crowded Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras. And out walks the man himself. Actually, he’s not walking; he’s strutting, with an elegant cane, toward his piano stool. He sits down and waits for the perfect moment in between beats; then he rips off a brief, six-note phrase on his piano, leans into the mic, and lets go with that growl that is unmistakably his and his alone.

I’m not going anywhere, and I know it.

For the next two hours, six decades of New Orleans soul, funk, rock, and jazz pour from his fingers. When he plays his biggest hit, “Right Place, Wrong Time,” the crowd gets on its feet, and despite the Hammond organ’s stubborn refusal to work properly, he seems utterly in command and utterly nonchalant about it.

On this night, or “Such a Night,” as the man himself might call it, he is part mystic, part ultra-confident trickster, part reincarnation of Professor Longhair, and all Big Easy cool, a dark kind of calm that hints at a lot of menace just underneath the surface.

The next day, someone asked me how the show was, and I will always remember my reply. I thought of all the stress and chaos of the day, and then I thought of the great Dr. John sitting at that piano, and I said, “It was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.”

Those were my immediate thoughts when I heard about the passing of Dr. John at age 77; the world is a lot less cool, and a lot less mischievous fun, than it was when the doctor was in.

in greenville

In 2015 I packed everything I owned, including my dog, into the back of my car and began a long drive to Greenville, South Carolina. Greenville was the location of the hospital where my boyfriend was beginning his four-year residency.

That night, after unloading my car, we strolled down to Falls Park. Main Street was illuminated by lights strung in the trees and seeing the rows of restaurants I knew instantly that food would be my con-

nection to this city. It wasn’t just the quantity but the variety! Greenville is a food-lover’s dream.

Because our time in Greenville was fixed to Daniel’s training at the hospital, we knew that our stay was temporary and this knowledge somehow sweetened our years in the city. From that first night, I connected to Greenville through its bakeries, cafés and restaurants; through the late-night dinners we’d grab when Daniel got off call; through the cakes we’d shared to

celebrate anniversaries; and over late-morning weekend breakfasts. I knew Greenville through its food.

So, just as we started packing, I made a list of the places I needed to eat one last time before we left the city. This is the story of the 12 meals I had to savor before we moved on. These places made the list because they produce something greater than the sum of their ingredients which is the secret recipe for community. Each tells a story through its food.

Congratulations to the current and past members of Greenville Women Giving who have collectively invested over $6 million in Greenville County non-profits over the past 13 years. Join us in learning, working and giving together to build a greater Greenville.

SWAMP RABBIT CAFÉ & GROCERY Turkey Pesto Sandwich on Stecca, Iced Coffee, Chocolate Chip Cookie I found Swamp Rabbit Café & Grocery on foot, jogging along the Swamp Rabbit Trail one evening while the peachy sunset illuminated the spires of abandoned water towers like beacons. I passed over the Reedy River and under the graffitied trestles of the train tracks. Coming down a slight rise I saw a small garden first, then a busy yard spread with picnic tables.

Bicycles leaned against split rail fences and friendly dogs tangled their leashes together. The place seemed to me to have risen out of the banks of the Reedy River, out of the kudzu tangle and abandoned land. A giant bicycle rested on the rooftop, its handlebars riding high in the sunset clouds. I slipped inside to use the bathroom and knew that I’d found a kind of haven.

There were flyers for cooking classes, flea markets, farm share boxes and dance parties tacked to a bulletin board. Local produce spilled out of coolers and crates. Behind a glass display at the bakery counter stacks of scones and cookies tumbled. In a basket by the counter crisp exclamations of freshly baked bread sprinkled with sea salt crystals and golden with olive oil rose out of brown paper bags. I wandered around, empty-handed, forgetting about my jog. I came back to eat and shop the very next day.

Swamp Rabbit Café & Grocery is aspirational in the best sense of the word. Being in the glow of its food, products and staff makes you want the best of things. Having moved from a local food community in Vermont I was thrilled to find a hub like Swamp Rabbit Café fostering the agricultural economy and turning out its own delicious food and baked goods. Chief among the delicacies at Swamp Rabbit Café is its stecca – those bread exclamation points sprinkled with salt. Stecca is a variation of ciabatta using olive oil instead of milk in the dough.

Baked daily and sold by the loaf or as a thick sandwich at the café, their stecca is the only bread

our Italian friend will buy in the city – the most, he says, like home. A sign on the trail reads, accurately, “Best Bread in Greenville”.

On my last visit to Swamp Rabbit Café and Grocery it was a hot midday and I thought the place would be quiet. I was wrong. Business men in suits camped out at the tables indoors, drinking iced coffee and talking shop. A woman flipped through a novel at the café table outside while mothers stood in the shade watching kids clamor on the hot playground. I ordered a turkey pesto sandwich, an ice coffee, and a chocolate chip cookie. While my sandwich was prepared, I wandered the grocery section, eying the season’s first strawberries, clutches of gourmet mushrooms, blue and green chicken eggs and a thick cut medallion of grass-fed beef.

When my buzzer rang, I collected my sandwich, cookie and coffee and set myself up outside at a picnic table under the shade of the pizza area.

As I ate, I watched one of the owners pulling weeds from the parking lot as she talked on her phone. She did this calmly and I could tell that she cared for the place as if it were her home. Another employee planted flowers in a window box along the bike fence. Two people walked up the trail and asked the mothers in the shade near the playground what this place was. The women pointed. They came out a few minutes later with a dozen of those pastel eggs and a loaf of stecca.

The turkey pesto sandwich was a masterwork of sandwich wizardry. The stecca appeared to be too crusty at first but on biting it compressed just enough for easy eating. A spread of dark green pesto slathered the bottom creating a base for thick-cut turkey, sharp cheddar cheese and crisp local lettuce. Like most perfect things, the turkey pesto sandwich is simple.

You can taste each ingredient but the whole is still greater than its parts. I licked the stecca salt off my fingers as I watched traffic ride the bridge over the Swamp Rabbit Trail. The iced coffee was bitter and chilled and cut the semi-sweet chocolate sugar of the chocolate chip cookie like shade on a hot day. I finished my last meal at Swamp Rabbit Café taking a bite of one and a sip of the other until there was nothing on my table left to savor. Still, I sat awhile longer, then headed back inside for a quart of strawberries.

Megan Baxter’s series, “12 Last Meals in Greenville, SC” documents the food-lover’s farewell to our city. Check back each week for the next installment.

RECIPE BOOK REINVENTS ’90S C U LT U R E A S C O C K TA I L S Spirits writer and ‘90s baby Sam Slaughter is willing to go on record naming the most iconic pop-rock song of his childhood era. Brace yourselves.

In fact, he does in his newly released cocktail book “Are You Afraid of the Dark Rum? And Other Cocktails for ‘90s Kids.”

Under the recipe named “Semi-Charmed Kind of Cocktail,” he throws down a bold statement: “I’m going to go ahead and say it – this is the most iconic pop rock song of the ‘90s. It’s become an instant sing-along jam in any bar, joining the ranks of ‘Sweet Caroline,’ ‘Don’t Stop Believin’,’ or ‘Livin’ on a Prayer.’”

Of course, he’s referring to Third Eye Blind’s universally recognized “Semi-Charmed Life,” for which his riff on a mojito is named. (Since it’s now likely the hook will be stuck in your head for the rest of the day, there’s little point in arguing.)

Slaughter, food and drink editor for “The Manual” and a Greenville resident, has taken the TV, movies, food and beverages, music, and pop-culture quirks of his childhood and turned them into 46 different cocktails designed to evoke ’90s nostalgia.

An entertaining page-turner with enough puns to make any dad proud, it’s easy to get lost in the memories and forget you’re supposed to be doing something – like making cocktails – with “Are You Afraid of the Dark Rum?” But it is, after all, a recipe book, and Slaughter has highlighted a few of his personal favorites by category for anyone who lived through the era of sugar-laden drinks and neon wind suits (those who didn’t are technically still too young to imbibe, but barely).

The goal, he says, was to keep the drinks simple enough for the cocktail novice to pick it up and make for a party (that inevitably includes a wicked good ‘90s playlist Slaughter has made for you on Spotify).

MUSIC -INSPIRED Mambo No. 5.

Three rums, tequila, pineapple, orange, grenadine, and a splash of club soda make this party pleaser both easy to make and even easier to drink. (Uber home).

Nothing compares 2 D.E.W.

No ‘90s-inspired cocktail book would be complete without a Prince reference. “Nothing Compares 2 U” turns into a lightly purple-hued (because obviously) Irish whiskey cocktail with Tullamore D.E.W., sweet white vermouth, Montenegro, orange bitters, and a créme de cassis floater.

The Tubthumper

The one-hit-wonders Chumbawumba inspire a sort of British Long Island Iced Tea with Irish whiskey, grain-based vodka, British lager, and British cider that is “equal parts getting knocked down and getting up again.”

TELEVISION-INSPIRED Are you afraid of the dark rum?

The title cocktail and inspiration for the book requires a little more technique than others because of the smoke, but with a little practice, Slaughter says anyone can pick it up. He’s also happy to say the terrifying weekend TV show of his younger years is not the least bit scary upon re-watching as an adult.

Kimmy Gimlet

The annoyingly lovable neighbor on “Full House” makes for a lovely, stepped up gimlet with lavender-infused gin. A favorite summer beverage for Slaughter, he says this one could easily be put it over ice to be even more refreshing.

I’m the Cocktail, Gotta Love Me

The first cocktail Slaughter made for his partner, Amy Ellis, who also did all of the photography for the book, was originally called the Ellis. Renamed after a phrase from “Dinasours,” vodka, honey syrup, lemon, and club soda combine for a gotta-love summer sipper.

POP CULTURE-INSPIRED The Rye-U and Ken

A constant on Slaughter’s Sega Genesis, the classic game Streetfighter makes for a classic rye cocktail with sweet vermouth and orange bitters. The clear highlight on this page is the photography – Slaughter and Ellis tied a red Fruit by the Foot around the glass like a bandana.

Juice Box Iced Tea

Slaughter says he hit the jackpot when he got a Ssips Iced Tea for lunch. Serve this bourbon, limoncello, orange bitters and citrus combo with a bendy straw.

The Pog and The Slammer

Technically two drinks, The Pog is the sipping cocktail, and The Slammer is the shot.

Either way, the strange collectable game has its roots in Hawaii, as does a common island drink called P.O.G. Slaughter discovered during a trip to Hawaii a few years ago. In this version, he switches out the passionfruit for pineapple and uses two different rums.
