• Stags Stampede 2026 - JV BOYS (Raw) (milesplit.com) — Summerville High's JV boys turned in strong performances at the 2026 Stags Stampede, placing several runners in the top 20 and packing the results sheet with Green Wave names. The raw times show how Summerville stacked up against Cane Bay, Berkeley, Fort Dorchester, West Ashley, and others, offering local families a detailed look at every finisher's place, grade, and pace.
• Charleston Southern University Secures US$1.25 Million for Aviation Training Expansion (afm.aero) — Summerville-area residents will see more aviation activity and training opportunities as Charleston Southern University expands its Aeronautics program using Summerville Airport and local simulator facilities, backed by a US$1.25 million federal grant. The funding boosts pilot and air traffic management training capacity, adds new simulators, drones, and maintenance equipment, and helps keep program costs down for aspiring local aviators.
• S.C. advocates travel to Capitol Hill seeking more cancer research funding (wrdw.com) — A Summerville resident joined hundreds of advocates in Washington, D.C., pressing Congress to boost federal funding for cancer research and early detection programs that would benefit South Carolina institutions like MUSC. They're backing billions in NIH support and a bipartisan bill to make clinical trials more accessible, arguing that money should never block patients from lifesaving care.
