I'm so proud to say, I was born and raised in Myrtle Beach. I am about as native as you can get. Because of a game of Bingo, my sisters and I exist. My father was stationed at MB AFB in the early to mid 50's. He went to Sloppy Joe's on the boulevard and played a game of Bingo, back then you could win a real animal. Instead of winning a stuffed animal why dont you take a puppy or a kitten that needs a home. So my Dad won a puppy! He then took the puppy to the vet (Jack Cox) to get its shots and a check up. That's where he met my mother, she worked there. I was born several years later at the Ocean view memorial Hospital in 1959. Because of a game of Bingo...... Thank you Myrtle Beach, without you, I would not be.
I grew up in Conway, was fortunate enough to work at Pavilion,Grand prix,red hotte shoppe,opc, and landscape maintenance on the boulevard public accesses. I love Myrtle! Such diversity,many cultures for this country boy to appreciate. I learned a lot about service and how it relates to one's vacation experience.
