“AMBASSADOR OF THE MONTH “MICHAEL WILKS WITH PRUDENTIAL
     Michael was born and raised in New Orleans, La.; then moved to Charleston, and graduated from Bishop England High School and the University of SC with a business degree. He was self employed in the convenience store business for 11 years. Then Michael made a life decision to sell business (even though the money was good and was working 80 hours a week) in order to be able to spend some much needed time with his family: wife Christa who works with him, and his three children Whitney, Cooper and Hampton.
     He joined Prudential in 2008 because of the premium products they offer. His office in Chapin opened in February of this year in order to offer Prudential premium core products: Life insurance, long-term care insurance and retirement instruments that are the best on the market such as Annuities and Mutual funds. He is also able to offer premium personal auto, home, and extended coverage (umbrella policies) through Liberty Mutual. Other products that help clients are group and personal health insurance and disability insurance.
      “My family and I have enjoyed Chapin for the past 3 years after being in Irmo for 9 years. I look forward to personally meeting as many people in our community as possible and being a resource that they can count on to help grow and protect their wealth”, says he.  Contact Michael at Prudential Financial, 485 Chapin Road, Suite A in Chapin. 803-345-7671, Michael.Wilks@prudential.com

 NOVEMBER 20 - GREATER CHAPIN CHAMBER AWARDS GALA

Chapin SC Student Shows Her Skill on the Court - From The State Newspaper

Posted on Thursday, Oct. 15, 2009

At 12 years old, already a team leader
By AKILAH IMANI NELSON

Savanna Fuller, 12, often is at a disadvantage when she steps on the court.
Chapin's No. 1 singles player, a seventh-grader, often faces opponents who are stronger and several years older than her.
"It can be intimidating at first, but once we start playing all of that goes away," Fuller said. "I just kind of, like, disappear. It's really fun to get into that zone."

Halloween Safety Tips from the Lexington County Sheriff's Department

Halloween Safety Tips from the Lexington County Sheriff's Department
To view the complete article from the Lexington County Sheriff's Department, please click the above link.

As many of us get ready for this potentially fun-filled night, it is also important to remain aware of some key safety tips.....
Halloween 03

(Sheriff) "Metts urges parents to take simple precautions to protect their children on Halloween:

* A parent or another responsible adult should accompany children while they go door-to-door to fill their goody bags.

* Children should visit only the homes of neighbors whom their parents, other relatives or friends know.

* Children should not visit homes where no lights are on. Most people who have candy and other items available to give out to young ghosts and goblins will turn on their exterior lights as a sign that children are welcome.

* Parents should select costumes for their children that do not obstruct the children’s vision or the children’s ability to run or walk. Children must be able to see well and walk well while crossing streets in neighborhoods to trick or treat.

* Motorists must be able to see children who are wearing costumes, and parents should provide their children with flashlights or objects that emit or reflect light. Costumes that are light colored will be most visible at night.

* When children return home with overflowing goody bags, parents should inspect all candy and other items to make sure that they have not been tampered with. If an item appears to be suspicious, you should throw it away.

Many churches and civic groups sponsor festivals at Halloween, Metts said. Such festivals offer games and other activities for children in a safe, controlled environment."

Mr. Charles, in his bold yellow slacks, espadrilles and provocatively vivid hairstyle, also introduces Shane, his hunky young “companion.” Together they confront every hot-button topic from gay marriage to the history of gay theatre, finally delving into the highest matters of identity and flamboyance.
