"Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn."
- Benjamin Franklin
|
Live and learn - these three words represent a freedom from regret, and a call to improve. They encourage one to embrace one's mistakes and take advantage of an opportunity to grow. These three words sum up perfectly the reasons many of us have made Hartsville our home. No other town offers quite the opportunities to live, and to learn, that one can find in Hartsville.
Hartsville prides itself on education, and our world-class schools and colleges have begun taking registrations for new and returning students in 2015. Though summer vacation looms, this is the perfect time to get yourself or your family squared away for the 2015 school year. Complete you registration today, and enjoy the peace of mind of having it done all summer!
Learning is not strictly confined to schools, though; there are opportunities all around you to grown and be inspired. The Women in Business Seminar tomorrow is just such an opportunity - get your tickets today before they are sold out! SERVPRO is also providing professional education in the near future with their FREE mold mitigation & remediation course. This course will county at 4 CE credit hours. If you are in the insurance business you know how important CE credits are, so be sure to take advantage of this free course.
Finally, take a moment this week to learn about our fair city, free of charge. The Hartsville Museum offers a deep and insightful look into our history - the who's and how's of what made Hartsville the city it is today. The recently unveiled Tales on the Town downtown scavenger hunt is a new and exciting part of Hartsville's character. Find all 13 of them and enjoy the journey through some of our town's points of interest.
Schools, seminars, history, and new adventures define Hartsville's ability to 'live and learn'.
