Today's riddle: What did the tractor say to the plow? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Porter-Gaud seniors mark 9/11 with day of community service (live5news.com) — Porter-Gaud seniors in Charleston spent 9/11 packing thousands of oatmeal meals and volunteering at nonprofits across the Lowcountry as part of the school's annual day of caring. Their work supported groups like Lowcountry Food Bank, Our Lady of Mercy Outreach, James Island Outreach, Neighbors Together, and Pet Helpers, emphasizing service as a core part of school culture.
• Charleston airport seek to join TSA program allowing non-ticketed visitors past security (abcnews4.com) — Charleston International Airport is exploring a new TSA Gateside program that would let approved, non-ticketed TSA PreCheck visitors join loved ones at the gate, just like before 9/11. While the airport isn't in the program yet, officials have told TSA they want in, which could soon mean more time together and access to post-security restaurants for Charleston-area families.
• Couples Wait Nearly 3 Hours for Food During Reality Show Filming (dailydot.com) — A Charleston woman says a night out at a local restaurant turned into a nearly three-hour wait for food while a Southern Charm episode was filmed nearby. She describes wrong orders, crowded conditions, and no compensation beyond a comped meal, sparking online debate about how restaurants should handle TV productions around regular diners.
