Jenny Overman staff reporter with the Fort Mill Times wrote an article on August5, 2008 about how you can learn a lot about places and people on YouTube.com. Her article points out there are several videos on or about our area like Tega Cay, Fort Mill, and Indian Land.

Jenny said local residents are using YouTube to post videos for entertainment, make political statements, and business.

The process allows for an appeal process that was estimated to take 2 years to resolve. I have not been able to find on line any updates on the timing or status of the hospital. Here are a couple links to Fort Mill Times 2006 articles by Jonathan Allen about the Fort Mill hospital.
